Kong Xuan, who suddenly appeared, did not have any murderous aura, but Yang Jian still did not dare to relax at all. He stared at the elusive mighty figure of the Phoenix Clan in front of him with a burning gaze.
"Senior Kong Xuan, why are you here?"
"I was invited by someone. I'm loyal." Kong Xuan stood 100 feet away with his hands behind his back.
At this distance, if Kong Xuan suddenly attacked, it would be a huge threat to Yang Jian.
Yang Jian nodded gently and put his hands behind his back, looking at Kong Xuan.
"Are Feng Wuye and Feng Shan feeling unwell?"
"As long as they are in my residence, I will treat them as esteemed guests. However, the Golden-Winged Roc hurt them too much that day. They are much more depressed."
Kong Xuan nodded. There was a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"If not for that, I would not have allowed you to bring them away. To them, the current Phoenix Race is not a good place to return to."
Yang Jian looked at Kong Xuan and suddenly felt that it was not easy for him.
Dragons, phoenixes, and magi were once prominent and noble races in this world. They ruled over thousands of races. The Phoenix Race and Dragons were even regarded as "powerful" existences.
The more such a race was, the more they could not let go of their former glory.
What was the difference between the Golden-Winged Roc of the Phoenix Race and the Demon Ancestors of the demon race? They were just unwilling to let go of the afterglow of the powerful race in the past. They still wanted to exist in the Primordial World with dignity. That was all.
Yang Jian sighed in his heart. Kong Xuan seemed to be concerned about Deng Chanyu. He asked, "Is this woman also your confidante?"
"Senior, you really think too highly of me. I really only have my wife." Yang Jian chuckled. "This is a general that I just took in. I asked her to bring her friends and relatives to the Zhou Nation to prevent her from worrying."
Kong Xuan nodded gently when he heard that. "If that's the case, I won't fight you today."
A few black lines hung on Yang Jian's forehead when he heard that.
What, if he said that the one who fell was a concubine, would Kong Xuan still fight to the death with him?
Yang Jian was naturally aware that Kong Xuan seemed to have the intention to entrust Feng Wu and Feng Shan to him, and he'd tried his best to take care of them. He'd even allowed them to live with his mother, younger sister, and wife, yet he'd never aroused the thought of taking concubines.
"You seem to have too many women in your family." Kong Xuan's face was cold. "If I find out that Feng Wu and Feng Shan have suffered the slightest grievance because of this, I will make you suffer."
"Rest assured, Senior, rest assured."
Yang Jian cupped his hands and was about to complain when he suddenly thought of something.
In the original Investiture of the Gods story, Kong Xuan seemed to have appeared in the Investiture of the Gods as the commander of Golden Chicken Mountain …
"Senior, are you staying here because you want to become an official of the Shang Nation?"
Kong Xuan's lips curled into a smile as he nodded, seemingly surprised by Yang Jian's comprehension.
"That's right. I'm now a general of the Three Mountain Pass." As Kong Xuan smiled, his smile gradually turned cold. "When the time comes, I'll go to West Qi to test your Eight-Nine Arcane Art."
Yang Jian widened his eyes, filled with confusion and confusion.
Why?
How could Kong Xuan, a mighty figure and a ruthless person known to everyone in the Primordial World, do such a thing?
If he wanted to enter the God-Conferment Realm and go against Chanism, he could directly show his abilities in Chaoge City. He would definitely be able to become a high-ranking official and take command.
Why did he have to climb to the position of commander in the Three Mountain Pass and wait for an opportunity to go to West Qi?
"Senior, why?"
"I've already said it previously. I was just invited by someone and was loyal to them." There was a hint of sadness in the depths of Kong Xuan's eyes, but his expression did not change. The fluctuation in his eyes only lasted for half a moment.
Yang Jian immediately thought about many things. There were definitely not many people in the Primordial World who could invite Kong Xuan or even threaten him.
It was impossible for Chanism to ask Kong Xuan to stop the rise of the Zhou Nation in order to "train" its disciples. There were many experts in Jie School, so there was no need to invite Kong Xuan.
The Western Sect? It did not make sense. If the Western Sect wanted to obtain some luck in the God-Conferment Realm, they only needed to help Chanism …
Yang Jian had a rough idea. Various thoughts surfaced in his mind and he asked. He was half probing and half puzzled.
"Senior, do you also want to enter the God roll?"
Kong Xuan immediately sneered and did not answer.
Yang Jian was even more confused.
"Forget it. There's no harm in telling you." Kong Xuan's face was a little proud, but his words sounded in Yang Jian's heart. He did not say it out loud.
"The person who invited me to attack is not someone from the Dao Sect. They used a treasure that the phoenix race urgently lacks in exchange for me stopping the Zhou Army for half a year in the God-Conferment Realm. Then, the person who invited me to attack will appear and fight with me. I will defeat him and spread his reputation."
Yang Jian immediately understood.
This ruthless person had definitely been schemed against by the two Saints of the Western Sect!
Was that just a pretense of defeat? At that time, Kong Xuan would probably "fail" and be captured. The Saint who captured him would directly convert him into the Western Sect!
It was fine for Saint Jie Yin, but Saint Zhun Ti was really someone who refused to suffer losses. How could he let Kong Xuan off so easily?
"Senior …"
Yang Jian wanted to say something but hesitated. He knew that no matter how he persuaded, Kong Xuan naturally did not believe him.
Kong Xuan sneered. "Do you think I'm too easy to invite?"
"That's not the case." Yang Jian sighed softly. "Senior, you should be wary of the mighty figure who invited you here. Now that the South Continent is in a calamity, those who are not Saints are all schemed by the Heavenly Dao."
Kong Xuan nodded slightly and flicked his sleeve. "You still have some conscience since you can say that. When we meet on the battlefield, you should fight with all your might. Let me see how the ninth person is different from us. "
Before Yang Jian could say anything, Kong Xuan's figure flashed and left behind a faint afterimage. He had already disappeared.
The ninth person …
At that moment, Yang Jian already knew a lot about this matter. All sorts of thoughts surfaced in his heart. He did not stop for a long time.
Kong Xuan's Five-colored Divine Light was a problem.
"Forget it. I'll think about it when the time comes." Yang Jian lowered his head and looked at the city on the north side of the Three Mountain Pass. When he saw Deng Chanyu hiding and walking around, he waited quietly.
Late at night, dozens of people from the Deng Family finally gathered in Deng Jiugong's residence.
The servants and maids of the various residences would be dismissed the next morning. Many of Deng Jiugong's distant relatives would also be notified to escape.
After all, if Deng Jiugong wanted to surrender to the Zhou Nation, the Deng surname of the Three Mountain Pass would probably be removed from the list in Di Xin's rage …
What did it mean to regret not having enough treasures when needed?
If Yang Jian had a treasure like the Mountain River Map that had a universe inside, it would naturally not be difficult for him to transport dozens of people. Unfortunately, his Black Turtle Belt could not contain so many living creatures. The space inside was very limited.
The Mountain River Map was clearly at his mouth, but because of a thorn, Yang Jian could not open his mouth and swallow it. He felt a little depressed.
He had to find a time to send his sister to Nuwa Palace. At that time, he would have an open talk with Saint Nuwa.
He got a cloud and wrapped it with Xuanqi. He let the Deng family sit on the cloud and flew into the sky, heading towards Xi Qi.
Before he left, Kong Xuan did not appear. He only snorted coldly as a warning.
His meaning was obvious. The next time they met, they would definitely not be so friendly. There would definitely be a huge battle.
Yang Jian had taken two more steps forward than when he was in Phoenix Valley. He was vaguely looking forward to the battle with Kong Xuan.
The journey was peaceful. Yang Jian flew past Azure Dragon Pass with dozens of mortals. Deng Chanyu said that she would enter the pass and wait for Yang Jian to come. She would first go and sound out Deng Jiugong.
Yang Jian naturally agreed. With Deng Jiugong's wife and children by his side, he was really not afraid of any unforeseen events.
Putting aside the fact that Yang Jian went straight into the military camp and asked the generals to take good care of the Deng family, Deng Chanyu flew back to the military headquarters in Azure Dragon Pass. The banquet in the front hall had not ended yet.
Although she did not want to see the impulsive and frivolous Du Xing Sun, she wanted to settle this matter as soon as possible. So, she went back to her room to change her clothes, put on her upper armor, and went to the banquet. She wanted Deng Jiugong to quickly end the banquet.
"Humph!"
Deng Chanyu snorted coldly at the entrance of the hall. She did it on purpose.
Most of the generals were already drunk. At this moment, only Deng Jiugong was drinking with Du Xing Sun. There were also dancers at the side. Du Xing Sun stared at the dancers with a flushed face without concealing his gaze.
Deng Chanyu sighed in her heart.
If not for today's matter, would I really have to marry such a man?
No, Du Xing Sun and her father had agreed to "defeat" the Zhou army. Even if Yang Jian had not come to persuade her tonight, Yang Jian would have appeared in the Zhou army.
How could Du Xing Sun defeat Yang Jian? It was just wishful thinking to defeat the Zhou army.
These thoughts flashed through Deng Chanyu's mind as she walked to the table. With a flick of her sleeve, a cool breeze blew past. Deng Jiugong and Du Xing Sun immediately sobered up.
Du Xing Sun looked up, and his eyes immediately lit up.
"The Zhou army is setting up an array outside the pass, but you're drinking and having fun here!"
Deng Chanyu cursed. "Now that the Zhou army hasn't retreated half a kilometer, do you think you've agreed to this battle? Why don't you think about it? Yang Jian hasn't even revealed himself! "
"What's there to be afraid of!?" Du Xing Sun immediately looked up. "With my precious Immortal Binding Rope, how can that Yang Jian not be captured easily?"
Deng Jiugong's expression was somewhat awkward. He smiled at his precious daughter. "Yu 'er, don't be angry. Yu' er, don't be angry. I'll end the banquet now."
Du Xing Sun's expression was somewhat unhappy.
Deng Chanyu snorted and turned to walk towards the door. Du Xing Sun stared at Deng Chanyu's back. Thankfully, Du Xing Sun had not imparted to him some divine power that allowed him to see through objects …
"General Sun? General Sun? "
"Ah, what's wrong?"
"Why don't we drink here today? When General Sun succeeds tomorrow, we can drink and celebrate!"
"Alright!" Du Xing Sun suddenly smiled. "Tomorrow will be the day I defeat the Zhou army. Why don't Father-in-law grant me and Miss Chanyu's wish tonight?"
Deng Jiugong's smile immediately froze, but he did not dare to anger Du Xing Sun. He hurriedly said, "General Sun, don't be too hasty. I'll discuss this matter with Yu 'er tonight. How can she not see the big picture? General Sun, don't worry. I'm just a mortal general. How can I dare to fail General Sun? General Sun is an accomplished disciple of the Dao Sect and a disciple of a famous mountain. He will definitely not do anything that goes against the rules of the sect. "
Du Xing Sun laughed awkwardly and nodded. "Alright, watch me destroy the Zhou army tomorrow!"
"I'll send General Sun back to the camp."
"There's no need. I have my divine powers." Du Xing Sun stomped his feet and disappeared.
Deng Jiugong immediately slumped into his chair and sighed softly. His eyes were filled with frustration and anxiety …
"Daddy, please come to the study. I have something to report to you."
