After the Celestial Hound ate the black pearl, it soon seemed to be drunk. It was dizzy and swayed. It even barked twice and asked Yang Jian to take it back to its nest to sleep.
Yang Jian put the Celestial Hound in and instructed Xi Mei 'er, who had been hiding in the Black Tortoise Belt, to call him immediately if she noticed anything amiss.
Although Xi Mei 'er was very afraid of the Celestial Hound, she did not dare to disobey Yang Jian's orders. She could only agree aggrievedly.
Just as he settled down, he heard a few long whistles. Daon, the twelve commanders, and more than ten experts of the Wu people led three thousand disciples of the Wu people over the mountains.
Yang Jian was shocked. He went out of the Mei Mountain and stood at the foot of the mountain.
The twelve commanders flew in front of Yang Jian and knelt on one knee in unison. They shouted, "Greetings, Second Master!"
Behind them, a group of disciples of the Wu people, who looked like they were in their twilight years, stood there in a dense mass. They were all at a loss.
When Daon saw that, he stomped his feet in exasperation. His curses could be heard throughout the entire Mei Mountain.
"What are you waiting for?! Are you waiting for food? Hurry up and greet the master you will follow in the future! The reason why you are still alive after leaving the North Continent is because of his luck! "
The three thousand disciples of the Wu people had seen the battle between Yang Jian and Wang Linzhi from afar. They had also listened to the twelve commanders' stories about Yang Jian for a long time. Before they left their respective tribes, they had received strict orders from their respective Maguspriest …
They immediately knelt on the ground and shouted in a high and low voice, "Second Master."
Originally, there were 1200 Grass Gods, but now, there were 3000 of them!
Yang Jian said with a smile, "Please get up. Go to the mountain and set up camp first. I will arrange the arrangements for you later."
Daon rubbed his hands and winked at Yang Jian.
Yang Jian had just remembered his promise to Daon. He smiled and said, "I'm sure all of you are familiar with Grand Shaman Daon. In the future, he will be your chief instructor. I don't understand the Wu people's fighting techniques, but if there's anything that I can't understand in cultivation, you can look for me to help you."
The disciples of the Wu people immediately heaved a sigh of relief. They felt that Yang Jian was not a vicious person, but they did not dare to be too careless.
They were all Magi who were at least a few thousand years old. Who didn't have a mind of their own?
Daon frowned and moved closer. He muttered in a low voice, "Majestic. You're too majestic. You won't be able to suppress these little guys."
"Haha, I like to convince people with virtue." Yang Jian waved his hand. The twelve commanders stood up and returned to their respective tribes' formations.
The six major tribes, Xuanming, Qiangliang, Tianwu, Goumang, Kanzi, and Rushou, each sent five hundred tribesmen. This batch was actually the most talented disciples of the Wu people in the past tens of thousands of years.
As for the disciples of the Wu people before this, most of them had died of old age. Due to the lack of Earth Qi, very few of them could advance to become Combat Magi.
Many of them were disciples of the younger generation with excellent talents that the Wu people had sealed with a secret technique. From today onwards, they swore to follow Yang Jian to the death in an attempt to find a chance of survival for the Wu people.
From today onwards, the twelve commanders would no longer have no soldiers.
Yang Jian spent four hours choosing a place to camp and building houses. He settled down the three thousand disciples of the Wu people. Lü Chunyang had been waiting for a long time.
The troops of Plum City retreated to the foot of Plum Mountain, indicating the intentions of the generals of Plum City. Without Yang Jian's permission, they would not dare to touch Plum Mountain.
Hearing that Yang Jian wanted to have a celebratory banquet, Daon grabbed Yang Jian's sleeve and refused to let go. He followed Yang Jian shamelessly. When he sat down, he even sat on the first seat on Yang Jian's left. Obviously, he did not treat himself as an outsider.
Actually, the Wu people did not have that many rules.
The celebratory banquet was held in a palace left behind by the Demon Clan. It had been cleansed of the Demon Qi and was an elegant place.
The attack on the mountain ended too quickly. Although the Demon Clan's troops were defeated, most of the buildings left behind by the Demon Clan were not destroyed.
"You guys talk. I'll eat my food. Don't worry about me." Daon waved his hand. His four arms grabbed four pairs of chopsticks and he started to eat.
During the banquet, Yang Jian sat on the first seat. Lü Chunyang sat on Yang Jian's right. The generals of Plum City took their seats according to seniority.
The atmosphere was a little awkward.
"Perfected Lord." Yao Gonglin stood up first and said, "We investigated Plum Mountain and found twelve vaults of the Demon Clan. There were weapons, armor, money, and spirit stones stored in them. They are now sealed and guarded. Perfected Lord, please deal with them! "
"Plum City has a thousand things to do. Leave half of these treasures for the revival of the city. Divide the rest into three batches." Yang Jian thought for a while and said, "Send one to the Celestial Court, one to the East Sea Dragon Palace, and the last to Brother Lü."
The generals were overjoyed, but they did not dare to show it. All of them looked like they had a lot on their minds.
Lü Chunyang quickly waved his hand. "I can't distribute my share. Leave it for Plum City."
"Priest Lü," Yao Gonglin sighed. "If Priest Lü hadn't risked his life to save us, we wouldn't be sitting here. If Priest Lü continues to do this, we really don't know what to do. "
Lü Chunyang pondered for a while and could only nod.
Yang Jian asked, "Did you find the secret place of the Demon Clan?"
Zhi Jian said, "We found one. There's a mark of a Sage-to-be on it. We don't dare to act rashly. It's right under Plum Mountain. It's thousands of feet underground. "
"I'll go check it out later. If there are any rare things, we can send them to Kunlun Mountain to show our respect to the elders in my sect."
When they were attacking the Plum Mountain earlier, the Demon Race's Ancestor had appeared, but he had been scared away by a few mighty figures from the Hollow Jade Temple … All the generals of the Plum City had seen this with their own eyes. Naturally, they didn't think that Yang Jian's handling of the matter was the least bit inappropriate.
After these trivial matters were settled, the atmosphere became a little awkward.
Lü Chunyang felt really uncomfortable sitting there. He was like a matchmaker with a girl on a blind date. They were sitting together, but neither of them could open their mouths.
"Well …" Lü Chunyang coughed and wanted to open up the topic.
But Yang Jian said, "Brother Lü, listen to me first."
"Go ahead, go ahead." Lü Chunyang hurriedly gave way. He wanted to eat and drink like Daon.
Yang Jian stood up. All the generals wanted to stand up but were stopped by Yang Jian's hand gesture.
Yang Jian said, "Now that the Meishan Mountain has been stabilized, and a small portion of your revenge has been avenged, I shouldn't be talking about this at this time. However, this matter concerns everyone's future, and also concerns the stability of the Meishan Mountain from now on.
"True Monarch, please speak!" Although Zhi Jian was bold and unconstrained, his hands that were hidden under the table unconsciously clenched.
"Previously, when I stayed in Plum City, I had a good conversation with Gonglin. Boshi and I have similar interests and temperaments." Yang Jian smiled and said, "Now that Plum Mountain is facing a disaster, we have to rely on you for everything. Gonglin and Boshi can't bring up the matter of that day again."
Yao Gonglin's expression was a little sad. He thought that Yang Jian had rejected his previous surrender.
Right now, there were many things to do in Plum Mountain. If he and Zhang Boshi were the first to surrender to Yang Jian, almost half of the brothers present would immediately surrender. Then who would care about the old, young, women, and children left in Plum Mountain?
"True Monarch," Guo Shen said, "We want to rebuild Plum Mountain. If True Monarch permits, we will build another at the foot of Plum Mountain …"
"There are so many places on this mountain. Why do you want to go to the foot of the mountain?" Yang Jian asked in return. He waved his hand, and a Xuanqi condensed the rough terrain of Plum Mountain.
The generals of Plum Mountain all stared at Yang Jian in confusion. They didn't know what Yang Jian's intention was.
Yang Jian rarely showed off, but today, he was full of heroic sentiments. He said all at once, "The Celestial Court ordered me to station my army in Plum Mountain. My army will be the three thousand disciples of the Wu people that Daon brought with him. In the future, they will definitely be a strong fighting force. They will follow me to conquer the south and the north, and make unparalleled contributions!"
"Yes!" Daon, whose mouth was stuffed with food, nodded seriously in response.
Yang Jian said with a smile, "But I'm a human. If my army is full of disciples of the Wu people, it will be difficult to explain to Senior Shennong and Senior Xuanyuan. So, from now on, I will establish another army in Plum Mountain! "
"True Sovereign!" Zhang Boshi was a straightforward person. He asked, "Will the people of Plum Mountain have the opportunity to join this army?"
"Of course, I want to talk about this." Yang Jian waved his hand, and the Xuanqi changed again. The terrain of a thousand li around Plum Mountain was presented on the round table.
Yang Jian said, "The people of Plum Mountain originally belong to the human bloodline of Plum Mountain. I don't think you should build your city anywhere else. Just build it in your hometown."
"Is what True Sovereign said true?"
"Of course it's true." Yang Jian looked at that person. "Why would I lie to you? Just build a new Plum Mountain here. Arrange your own guards to protect it. If you have any difficulties, come to me. "
Guo Shen suddenly stood up and knelt on one knee in front of Yang Jian. He cupped his fists and said, "True Sovereign treated us with sincerity. We don't dare to lie! True Sovereign, last night, we have already discussed this! Brothers, we will hand over the fate of our bloodline to True Sovereign's hands! "
"General Guo, why do you have to do this? Quickly, please rise! "
"I hope True Sovereign will accept the people of Plum Mountain! All the troops and horses will be at True Sovereign's disposal! " Yao Gonglin stood up, Zhang Boshi stood up, and all the generals of Plum Mountain also stood up. They knelt on one knee in front of Yang Jian and bowed.
Yang Jian's heart was at ease. His original intention was to merge Plum Mountain and Plum Mountain into one. It seemed like there would not be any resistance.
He raised his hand, and waves of Xuanqi swept out, wrapping around everyone.
Guo Shen and Zhi Jian wanted to hold on for a while, but they felt that their Daira level cultivation could not withstand Yang Jian's casual lift of his hand. They were lifted up along with the others.
"Generals, please don't be like this! This matter will only benefit me and not harm me. I will not shirk my responsibility. "Yang Jian was straightforward and made his intentions clear.
Yang Jian said, "You can decide the defense of Plum Mountain. You can choose the troops under my command. As long as they join my army, I will treat them as brothers. There is not much restraint in daily life. "
"True Sovereign is so generous to us. How can we not die for you?!"
Yang Jian waved his hand and said, "Don't be so full of yourself. If anyone wants to leave Plum Mountain, please leave before dawn tomorrow. We will not make things difficult for you."
"If so … thank you, True Sovereign!" Yao Gonglin sighed and said, "My wish has been fulfilled after taking down Plum Mountain. If I did not want to follow True Sovereign to the Untainted Land, I would also like to live in seclusion in the mountains."
Yang Jian chuckled and did not say anything. "Everyone, please sit down and drink. You can speak freely today! Don't forget to give me an answer tomorrow morning. "
"Yes!"
Lü Chunyang secretly gave Yang Jian a thumbs-up. Yang Jian smiled calmly. He did not think that his way of handling things was brilliant.
He just fulfilled his previous promise. In Yang Jian's opinion, it was reasonable and should be so.
The generals of Plum Mountain said some words of gratitude again, but Yang Jian did not take it to heart.
They drank until late at night. The generals of Plum Mountain hurriedly went to check the troops. Half of them went to the southeast to pick up the survivors of Plum Mountain, and the other half was stationed in various places of Plum Mountain. They took up the defense of Plum Mountain to prevent the demons from counterattacking.
When dawn came, they had already made all kinds of arrangements.
The current troops of Plum Mountain were divided into two groups. One group of elite soldiers was under Yang Jian's command. They were stationed on the left side of Plum Mountain, training day and night and waiting for orders.
The other group of mediocre people stayed in the newly built Plum Mountain to take care of the survivors.
Five generals stayed in New Plum Mountain to obey Yang Jian's orders. The other six generals directly joined Yang Jian's camp and served Yang Jian as their master.
There were also three generals who resigned from their positions and became ordinary disciples of Plum Mountain, living in seclusion.
The six generals who joined Yang Jian's camp learned from the twelve commanders and addressed Yang Jian as' Second Master '.
Yang Jian had said that because Yang Jian was only the Marshal of the Celestial Court, he could not reward the six of them too much. Therefore, he set up the positions of two generals and four Grand Commandants.
An expert of the Daira realm should at least be a general.
These six people were:
General of Plum Mountain, Zhi Jian;
General of Plum Mountain, Guo Shen;
Grand Commandant of Plum Mountain, Yao Gonglin;
Grand Commandant of Plum Mountain, Kang Anyu;
Grand Commandant of Plum Mountain, Li Huanzhang;
Grand Commandant of Plum Mountain, Zhang Boshi!
They were the Six Friends of Plum Mountain. They were all people who were good at fighting. Even if their abilities were not high, the army they led could not be underestimated.
They were Yang Jian's six brothers. They led the troops of the human race of Plum Mountain. In the future, they followed Yang Jian to fight everywhere and suppress the demons. They made outstanding contributions and became famous in the Primordial World.
At that moment, Yang Jian had 20,000 troops from the Plum Mountain lineage and 3,000 disciples of the Wu people. There were a total of 23,000 troops.
With Daon, Zhi Jian, Guo Shen, and the other experts, as long as they activated another array formation, even if Yang Jian went out, it would be more than enough to guard Plum Mountain.
