Cheng Hou left. As the first Sage, he had never been so aggrieved. But this matter involved the heavens, so there was nothing he could do. Who asked him to fight near the Sky Pillar? The worst was the blue demon eye. It was an unexpected disaster!
"Something's wrong?" Cheng Hou's pupils shrank.
"Attracting the Eye of Heaven? Could it be that Zhong Shan did it on purpose? "Cheng Hou thought to himself.
"Impossible. Zhong Shan's calculations can't be so heavy. Even the heavens were included? If that's the case, Zhong Shan is too scary. It can't be like this! "Cheng Hou shook his head and denied this terrifying guess.
… … …
… …
… …
Cheng Hou left, and the Black Tortoise Holy Land calmed down again.
However, the people outside the Daikon State looked at Zhong Shan differently, especially the elders of the Black Tortoise Race. At this moment, they looked at Zhong Shan with a blank expression. How many tricks does Zhong Shan have? Cheng Hou was forced to leave by him? Could it be that our Black Tortoise Race will never escape from his evil claws?
Jing Yuntian caught a few Sky Demons, but some still escaped.
When Jing Yuntian flew back, he looked at Zhong Shan with a complicated expression. He originally thought that Zhong Shan's strength was very high, but it seemed that he still underestimated him. At the same time, his impression of Xiao Wang also became complicated. Wanxiang Mirror Tower. Under the persuasion of his son, Jing Yuntian did have other thoughts. But now, those thoughts were completely abandoned.
A thousand years, then let's wait a thousand years!
After staying in the Extreme North for another month, Zhong Shan left everything. Only then did he bring some experts of the Ice God Palace back to the South.
In the Ice God Palace, Sorrowful Qingsi became the new Palace Master. Naturally, she could mobilize everyone in the Ice God Palace. Sorrowful Qingsi didn't take over the Ice God Palace. At the same time, she left some of the lower generation disciples in the Extreme North. With Xiao Wang and the Turtle Snake looking after them, there shouldn't be any danger.
When they came, they were in a hurry, but when they returned, they weren't in a hurry. During this time, they spent a lot of time alone with Sorrowful Qingsi.
After flying for two and a half years, they returned triumphantly.
Daikon State, High Heaven! In the Hall of Eternal Life Square.
"Greetings, Holy King!" The officials respectfully awaited Zhong Shan's return.
The experts from the Ice God Palace looked around with their eyes wide open. Zhong Shan had long heard of how powerful he was. Coming here for the first time, he was naturally curious.
"No need for formalities!" Zhong Shan nodded.
"Thank you, Holy King!"
"Qingsi, I've already arranged for the Ice God Palace's people to live in. Take them there to get used to it," Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!"
"Golden Roc, go and rest!" Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!" The group of officials heading north immediately responded.
"Zhong Shan, I'll go accompany Sister Qingsi!" Huan Ji said.
"En!" Zhong Shan nodded.
After settling everyone down, Zhong Shan looked at the officials who were waiting for him.
"I've just returned. You all have important matters to attend to. Write your memorials first and we'll talk about it in the morning court in three days. You may leave for now!" Zhong Shan said.
"Yes!" The officials immediately responded.
The officials left. Zhong Shan rested for a day and then went to the study room.
Because he had a shadow body in the Underworld, there weren't too many government affairs in the five years he was away. There were only a few memorials in the study room.
Zhong Shan sat down. Soon, the generals of the Daikon State in the mortal realm were called in.
Lin Xiao, Yi Yan, Shui Jing, Shen Gongbao, Shui Wuhen, and Zhao Suxiang stood on both sides.
"Holy King!" Everyone said.
"Yes!"
Because of the shadow body in the Underworld, the officials weren't too surprised to see Zhong Shan.
"How's the arrangement for the group of great deities?" Zhong Shan asked.
Shui Jing stepped forward and said, "Holy King, the thousand or so great deities from the East Continent arrived half a year ago. I've pacified them and arranged for them to be stationed in various military camps. They don't have many official positions for the time being. Everything is based on military merit. After they understood the situation in the Daikon State, they all agreed."
"It's easy for the great deities to obtain military merit. They won't have any objections!" Zhong Shan nodded and smiled.
"Yes, with the addition of more than a thousand great deities, the strength of the Daikon State is enough to face the world!" Shui Jing nodded.
"Good!" Zhong Shan nodded.
Shui Jing stepped back in satisfaction.
"Holy King!" Shen Gongbao stepped forward.
"Shen Gongbao, you just returned three days ago? How's your progress? "Zhong Shan asked.
"When I visited the various dynasties, I successfully planted a seed of disaster among them. I also persuaded the lords of two weaves to join the Great Liao. Once the war breaks out, the surrounding eight weaves will be destroyed as easily as dry weeds! They won't be able to withstand a single blow! "Shen Gongbao said with a hint of pride.
"Good! Shen Gongbao, you've worked hard this time! "Zhong Shan was very satisfied.
He knew that Shen Gongbao was very capable, but he didn't expect that Shen Gongbao would give him such a big surprise in the past five years.
Eight territories? There were only 36 territories in the North Continent. Once the eight territories were conquered, the Daikon State would be able to sweep across the world with unprecedented strength.
What a great eight Weaves!
"I don't think it's hard. I didn't do much. I just used the Daikon State's' power 'to suppress the other territories," Shen Gongbao said humbly.
Shen Gongbao was also slightly excited. He wasn't excited about his own achievements, but because Zhong Shan had changed from 'Minister Shen' to 'Shen Gongbao' again. Although he used to call him 'Shen Gongbao', it was a completely different concept. Because if he called him 'Shen Gongbao' now, it meant that Zhong Shan had completely accepted him. Complete acceptance was much better than respect.
"Lord Shen, you don't have to be modest. If you continue to be modest, you'll be arrogant!" Yi Yan said with a smile.
Shen Gongbao smiled, shook his head, and said no more.
"Holy King, speaking of which, the Daikon State has been experiencing one joyous event after another. Reports of victory keep coming in!" Yi Yan said.
"Oh?" Zhong Shan looked at Yi Yan.
The war hadn't even begun. Where did the reports of victory come from?
"Holy King, ten days ago, Zu Xian Training Hall Masters from three territories in the Northern Continent came to the Daikon State. I was the one who received them. I talked with the three Training Hall Masters for two days and finally confirmed their purpose of coming to the Daikon State. They want to join the Daikon State! "Yi Yan said.
"Three Zu Xian's volunteered to join the Daikon State?" Zhong Shan was slightly surprised.
"That's right. At first, I didn't believe it either. But in the end, the three of them said that they had seen you, Holy King, in the extreme north. Back then, Holy King's battle with Zhuang Zi convinced them …" Yi Yan explained the situation of the Ancestor Immortals who wanted to join the Great Liao.
"Holy King, how should we deal with the three of them?" Yi Yan looked at Zhong Shan.
Although Yi Yan was very willing, only Zhong Shan had the right to make decisions in the Daikon State. Yi Yan politely waited for Zhong Shan's decision.
"Join the Daikon State? That's good. I'll meet them personally tomorrow. "Zhong Shan agreed immediately.
"Yes!" Yi Yan smiled.
Because of Shen Gongbao's visit, the eight territories had collapsed at the first blow. These eight territories were already in the bag. Now, there were three more territories? The war hadn't even started yet, and there were already eleven territories that had been decided internally? How could Zhong Shan not be happy at this moment?
"By the way, you said that there are many reports of victory. What else is there?" Zhong Shan asked.
"I can't judge. Holy King, please make a decision." Yi Yan handed over a post.
"A month ago, someone sent it to my residence. Because the Map of the Emperor opens once every two months, and I didn't want a third person to know, I didn't send a letter to the Underworld." Yi Yan said again.
Zhong Shan nodded and opened the post.
"Yi Lanque?" Zhong Shan said with surprise.
It was actually Yi Lanque from Zhuangzi's dojo? A letter of visit to surrender? Zhong Shan closed his eyes and thought for a moment. That day at Zhuangzi's dojo, Yi Lanque did say that she wanted to surrender. Later, he had a falling out with Zhuangzi, so Yi Lanque should have stopped thinking about it. Unexpectedly, Yi Lanque chose to surrender even more resolutely.
Zhong Shan analyzed Yi Lanque's words. He gently tapped the table for a while. All the army commanders waited patiently.
After a while, Zhong Shan opened his eyes, and a bright light shot out from his eyes.
"Holy King, what do you think? Is Yi Lanque's surrender approved? "Yi Yan looked at Zhong Shan with slight expectation.
"I approve!" Zhong Shan took a deep breath.
Yi Yan looked at Zhong Shan and nodded in admiration. This was boldness. As soon as the Golden Roc returned, Yi Yan inquired about everything from the Golden Roc.
After falling out with Zhuangzi, the Holy King was not afraid that Yi Lanque was a chess piece deliberately used by Zhuangzi. He actually calmly agreed to Yi Lanque's surrender. This was boldness, this was broad-mindedness. At least for the time being, Yi Yan was not broad-minded enough to accept someone from Zhuangzi's dojo. Moreover, Yi Lanque solemnly emphasized that she would not deal with Zhuangzi.
Zhuangzi's dojo.
In a large hall, Yi Lanque, his father, and his ancestor stood.
"Que 'er, the Ancestral Master and Zhong Shan have completely fallen out. If we send a messenger to the Daikon State, will …!" Yi Lanque's father said worriedly.
"Father, don't worry. Nothing will happen!" Yi Lanque shook his head.
"But what if Zhong Shan doesn't accept? At that time, if that vote is made public, our Yi family will be completely finished, "said Yi Lanque's father.
"I think Zhong Shan will accept!" Yi Lanque shook his head.
"Que 'er, how confident are you?" The ancestor asked.
"It's not a matter of confidence, but that we have to do this. The world is in chaos, and the Yi family is too weak to stand up to the wind. If we want to survive and rise in this chaotic world, the Ancestral Master's dojo is definitely not a good choice for us. That's because the Ancestral Master's goal is too vague! Our Yi family can't withstand this kind of torment. "Yi Lanque shook his head.
"Que 'er, let me ask you how confident you are!" The ancestor was somewhat anxious. This matter concerned the entire family, so he had to ask in detail.
"Confident? If Zhong Shan is someone the Yi family can rely on, then I'm ninety percent confident. If Zhong Shan doesn't have the courage, then there's no need for us to join. I'm not worried about this. I'm worried about how to contact the Daikon State in the future. "Yi Lanque shook his head.
"Contact?" The ancestor was puzzled.
"That's right. With the Ancestral Master here, it won't be easy to contact the Daikon State!" Yi Lanque frowned.
"Eh, someone's here!" The ancestor raised his eyebrows and looked outside the hall.
"Master, Senior Brother Wu Xu requests an audience?" A Yi family disciple said respectfully.
"Wu Xu? What's he doing here? He's the successor of the Ancestral Master's other line. That line has always been hostile to our Yi family! "Yi Lanque's father frowned.
"Let him in!" The ancestor said.
"Yes!"
Soon, a man in a yellow robe was invited in.
"What are you doing here?" Yi Lanque's father looked at him with hostility.
"Everyone, I have something important to discuss with the Yi family head. Can you …" Wu Xu said. He then looked at Yi Lanque's father and the ancestor.
"Say it. There's no need to hide!" Yi Lanque shook his head.
"Can you activate the formation to isolate the hall? What I'm about to say is too important. It can't be leaked!" Wu Xu shook his head.
The three of them looked at each other. Then, the ancestor activated the formation.
Once the formation was activated, everything was isolated.
Wu Xu suddenly bowed respectfully to Yi Lanque.
"Eh?" The three of them didn't understand.
"Daikon State's Holy Court, Qianhu of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Wu Xu, greets the 13th Legion Commander!" Wu Xu said solemnly.
"Eh?" Yi Lanque and the other two were surprised.
