"The Zhou government has made no mistakes. Within a few years, we will definitely be able to take down Chaoge City. However, what plans does the Prime Minister have after taking down Chaoge City? "
"The world is stable and the world is at peace. It is time for me to return."
Yang Jian looked at the courtyard that Jiang Shang had personally set up. There were rockery, flowing water, and flowers in the courtyard. It was quite elegant.
The two of them walked in the corridor and chatted for a while. Jiang Shang asked Yang Jian how he would settle the world after taking down Chaoge City. Yang Jian said that he would return after taking down Chaoge City.
At that time, the god-conferment matter would be over. Yang Jian would naturally return to Mei Mountain to live his carefree life.
Taking advantage of the god-conferment was something that Yang Jian had planned for a long time. However, he only wanted to have more strength to protect himself in this world. From the beginning to the end, he did not have any other intentions.
There were not many people to protect, but this world was still too dangerous.
Yang Jian trembled in fear at the thought of the calamity that Daoist Tian Yan had mentioned.
Jiang Shang was slightly stunned when he heard Yang Jian's words. Then, he said in admiration, "The Prime Minister is of noble character and integrity. He cares about the world, but he does not seek a high position and a generous salary. He is truly an extraordinary person."
"Uncle-Master Jiang, you flatter me. I am a cultivator. I entered the mortal world only for the calamity of the Dao Sect. When Chaoge City is broken, the calamity of the Dao Sect will be over. I will naturally return."
Yang Jian paused and looked at Jiang Shang sincerely. "After I leave, the Zhou Nation needs a prime minister. Uncle-Master Jiang is the first person I think of. As long as Uncle-Master Jiang enters the Zhou Army now, I will naturally arrange everything for you in the future."
"This …"
Jiang Shang frowned slightly and looked conflicted.
Yang Jian said solemnly, "If Uncle-Master Jiang doesn't believe me, I can swear a Great Dao oath."
"Prime Minister, there's no need to do this. I believe everything you say." Jiang Shang hurriedly stopped him, but his words were still hesitant and worried. "Prime Minister, since you think so highly of me, I should be willing to sacrifice my life to serve the King of Zhou. But... Prime Minister, can you give me three days to consider? "
"Speaking of which, this is an important matter. It is understandable that Jiang Shishu is cautious." Yang Jian smiled and said, "Then these three days, I will stay in the fu."
Jiang Shang was taken aback again.
Yang Jian actually stayed in his house for three days?
"What about the government and military affairs of Zhou..."
"It's fine." Yang Jian smiled and said, "I've placed a wisp of my Primordial Spirit in the Prime Minister's residence. The government affairs will be handled by a group of ministers, and the King will personally take care of them. The military affairs will be supervised by King Wucheng, and a few of my junior brothers are stationed at the border, so there will be no worries."
Jiang Shang nodded and sighed, "After Grand Tutor Wen lost to the Prime Minister, half of Great Shang has collapsed."
"What does Uncle-Master Jiang think Zhou should do next?"
"Drag …" Jiang Shanggang couldn't help but burst into laughter after saying this word. "Excuse me. The Prime Minister definitely has this kind of insight, but I shouldn't be showing off in front of an expert. Now that the Prime Minister has accepted Deng Jiugong and his daughter, it is a wise move not to take the opportunity to take down the five passes. "
Yang Jian smiled and shook his head. "It's not the time to advance east yet. Why don't you tell me why we can't advance east now? I want to see if it matches my thoughts."
Jiang Shang thought to himself that he was testing him.
Jiang Shang said, "At this moment, the Shang Dynasty still has its strength. If we take the lead to attack Chaoge City, the Zhou Army and the Shang Dynasty will easily suffer heavy losses. Everyone knows that the Jiang Family of the East and the Dongyi Tribe are secretly working together. I'm afraid they are not small … It's fine if we don't give him a chance. If King Wu loses too many troops when he attacks Chaoge City, I'm afraid there will be another fierce battle. At that time, the world will be difficult to settle. Yes, that's one of the reasons. "
And so on, and so on. Jiang Shang analyzed more than ten reasons why they should not advance eastward at this time, and Yang Jian kept nodding his head as he listened.
The three most important factors were military strength, reputation, and aftermath.
Yang Jian was not as thoughtful as Jiang Shang. Of course, Yang Jian was thinking more from the perspective of the God-Conferment Tribulation.
Now, the twelve Golden Immortals of Chanism were recuperating in the mountains. Jie School was probably angry because of the matter between Zhao Gongming and the Three Xiao Immortals …
There were many people among the generals of the Shang Dynasty who were plotting against the God Conferment. For example, Kong Xuan and the Seven Evils Zhang Kui of unknown origins could not be underestimated.
The two of them chatted as they walked. They were having a good time in the courtyard.
What Jiang Shang did not know was that while he was discussing with Yang Jian, Rou 'er, who was sitting by the window and watching the place, heard that familiar voice again.
"I didn't want to look for you, but I had no choice today."
Rou 'er's body trembled slightly, and her gaze was filled with complicated emotions. When she heard the words in her ears, she bit her lips gently and nodded slowly in agreement.
Yang Jian was finally relieved. With this pillow talk, Jiang Shang would most likely go back to Xiqi with him this time.
Three days … was not too long.
Just like that, Yang Jian "went deep into the enemy's territory" and stayed in Jiang Shang's residence. Rou 'er still did not know that the person who sent the voice transmission to her was Yang Jian, but she might have suspected something.
However, at this moment, Yang Jian had already walked half of the God-Conferment Path. He could be considered to have personally dealt a heavy blow to the Jie School. There would not be any deviation in the God-Conferment Path.
Even if the matter of Yang Jian plotting against Jiang Shang was dug out, it would not shake Yang Jian's foundation in Chanism.
In comparison, if Yang Jian killed Du Xing Sun directly, it would have a greater negative impact on Yang Jian.
Speaking of Du Xing Sun, he really enjoyed the blessings of women. Although he was already dizzy, the medicinal power of the Dragon-Tiger Pill was still not reduced, allowing him to continuously deal with the continuous attacks of hundreds of women.
Looking at Du Xing Sun, whose eye sockets were gradually sinking and his eyes becoming more and more lifeless, Yang Jian's heart … was filled with admiration for Senior Emperor Huang Xuanyuan.
He had three thousand women and was the ancestor of the harem. There were few who could match him in the Primordial World.
However, halfway through Yang Jian's punishment of Du Xing Sun, someone came to look for Yang Jian. He directly revealed his aura and flew to the Jiang Residence.
That was the second day that Yang Jian stayed in the Jiang Residence. When it was almost dusk, three auras came aggressively and directly entered Chaoge City, shocking the surroundings.
The three Golden Immortals, Manjusri, Heavenly Lord Guangfa, Ju Liusun, and Chijing Zi, came hand in hand.
Yang Jian could tell at first glance that Manjusri and Ju Liusun's cultivation had recovered by thirty to forty percent, while Chijing Zi had recovered by sixty percent …
Something was wrong.
The reason why Uncle-Master Chijing Zi could recover his cultivation so quickly after the Yellow River Array was obviously because of the Jade Fate Pill that his master had given him. That was a great supplement for the Primordial Spirit. Together with other spirit herbs, the few Uncle-Masters on Hiroshige's side who had lost their Dao recovered by more than half.
Manjusri and Ju Liusun definitely did not have the Jade Fate Pill that their master had given them. Why did they recover by thirty to forty percent?
The Saint of the Western Sect had probably secretly taken action.
After the Yellow River Array, the Heavenly Lord of Primordial Beginning had only imparted a shocking mystical ability to the twelve Golden Immortals — the Golden Light of Earth. After that, he did not care about it anymore.
Perhaps, the Saint wanted to take the opportunity to let his disciples hone their Dao hearts.
"Where is Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian? Where is Disciple-Nephew Du Xing? "
Manjusri immediately revealed his purpose for coming. However, before he could finish, Chijing Zi's voice transmission entered Yang Jian's ears.
Chijing Zi asked, "Disciple-Nephew, did you capture Du Xing Sun? How is it? You didn't kill him directly, right? Your Uncle-Master asked me to follow them here. If you have already killed Du Xing Sun, nod your head and I will let your Uncle-Master come. "
The concern in his words was simply overflowing with his words.
Yang Jian, who was drinking tea in a pavilion, shook his head and smiled.
Jiang Shang hurriedly said, "Who is it? Are they immortals from Jie School? Why do they look familiar … "
"It's Uncle-Master Manjusri, Uncle-Master Ju Liusun, and Uncle-Master Chijing Zi," Yang Jian said with a smile. "Let's go and pay our respects."
Jiang Shang smiled awkwardly. "I'm no longer a disciple of Chanism …"
"A teacher for a day is a teacher for life," Yang Jian said seriously. "Master can abandon his disciple, but the disciple can't disrespect his master."
Jiang Shang stood up and bowed with a Dao salute. He looked ashamed. "I've learned something."
At that moment, Yang Jian and Jiang Shang left the pavilion together. Pairs of eyes landed on Jiang Shang, wondering why this "mortal" with a low cultivation level was so familiar with Yang Jian.
In fact, if Manjusri had not directly pointed out Yang Jian's location, the cultivators hiding in Chaoge City would not have known that Yang Jian was there.
"Greetings, Uncle-Masters." Yang Jian bowed respectfully. "This is Chaoge City. Please come in and talk."
Jiang Shang, who was at the side, also bowed but did not say anything.
Clearly, Jiang Shang still cared about what had happened back then.
Chijing Zi smiled and said, "Junior Brother, don't be anxious. Let's go down and ask Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian. We'll know what happened."
Manjusri and Ju Liusun nodded at the same time. The three Daoists rode a cloud and landed in the residence.
Jiang Shang invited the three of them into the tea room, but Manjusri raised his hand and refused. He said directly, "This matter is very important. Where are Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian and Disciple-Nephew Tu Xingsun?"
"He's in Chaoge City, but it's not convenient for him to meet guests now."
"Disciple-Nephew, please return my disciple," Ju Liusun said in a low voice. "My disciple has a stubborn personality and has yet to be adjusted properly. Therefore, he has not been allowed to serve in the army. However, a few days ago, he took advantage of my seclusion to steal treasures and sneak to the South Continent. He even became enemies with you. How despicable. Disciple-Nephew, please call him over. As your master, I will definitely punish him severely. "
Yang Jian smiled and said, "Uncle-Master, you're being too serious. Junior Brother Tu Xingsun is just brave and ruthless. He just wants to fight with me."
"We're all from the same sect. Why do we have to be enemies over such a small matter?" Manjusri smiled and said, "Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian, you're the chief disciple of the third generation after all. You should take care of your junior brothers."
Yang Jian cupped his hands. "Uncle-Master, you're right. I've always taken care of my junior brothers. Apart from Junior Brother Tu Xingsun, I've never punished them heavily. I haven't even scolded them much."
Ju Liusun frowned when he heard that. Did Yang Jian mean that he had dealt a heavy blow to Tu Xingsun?
Manjusri's heart was filled with excitement, but his expression turned gloomy. He said in a low voice, "Could it be that you've killed Tu Xingsun? Disciple-Nephew Yang Jian, do you know that it's a huge taboo to kill fellow disciples … "
"Look at what Uncle-Master is saying. How could I have killed Junior Brother?"
Red Essence also said, "Let's quickly call Tu Xingsun over."
Yang Jian chuckled. "Seeing how worried the three of you are, Uncle-Masters, why don't you follow me to look for him? However, this matter must not be made public. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will tarnish the reputation of our Chanism."
The three Taoist masters and Jiang Shang were puzzled. Yang Jian gestured for them to go ahead and led the way.
The incarnation that had been staying at the flower house opened its eyes and pointed a finger diagonally. It sent a wisp of Xuanqi into Tu Xingsun's body, allowing him to quickly recover his strength.
