"Therefore, this mission has two directions …"
Wu Ming spoke with fervor and assurance, "One is that Li Rubi defeated the imperial army, killed Wang Xuanfan, attacked the city, and established himself as a king. This is to obey the heavens!"
"The other possibility is that this person suffered a great defeat and retreated back to Nine Mountain Region. He became insane and perverted …"
After saying this, he shook his head helplessly. "Although I also want the first situation, the difficulty is too high. Instead, the second possibility is the most likely!"
"In other words … Li Rubi will first win and then lose?"
Xie Xiaodi covered her cherry lips.
In reality, this kind of hero in a chaotic world who had smooth sailing before, but after a defeat, went against the flow and declared himself a king and emperor. This caused the foundation to be ruined. In the history of Dazhou, it had been seen many times.
"This person …"
However, looking at Wu Ming now, Xie Xiaodi's gaze was completely different. "He has a clear understanding of worldly affairs and can analyze fluently. He also understands the way of fate and the use of fate. He is truly a talent to assist a king! No! Perhaps he is even higher … "
After all, the current Wu Ming only looked like a 16 or 17 year old youth!
"Then … what about Young Master Yu?"
Xiao Jizhi was a little hesitant.
"We can exchange some information appropriately …"
Xie Xiaodi muttered to herself, "After all, his mission is the same as ours. We are all in the same boat …"
"That's true …"
Xiao Jizhi nodded in agreement, but he didn't notice the strange look in Wu Ming's eyes.
…
On the platform.
A few hundred new soldiers were already in place. They watched as Wu Ming ascended the high platform. A little closer to the front were Zhong Ting, Niu Yong, and the others with excited expressions.
"Greetings, Lord General!"
At this moment, 500 people saluted together. The white gas formed clouds, and in the middle, there was a red color. It quickly transformed into a murderous aura.
"This fate is about to surpass the level of my Dazhou world …"
A strange light flashed in Wu Ming's eyes. He thought indifferently and immediately ordered, "He Zihai!"
"Yes, Sir!"
He Zihai was excited and took the lead to step out.
"You also had military merits before. I will now confer you the title of Meritorious Officer! Now, you will announce everyone's contributions! "
"Thank you for your promotion, milord!"
He Zi Hai kowtowed and saluted. Then, he stood up and faced the crowd. He opened the book of military merits and said, "In this battle, the five people who have made great contributions are Zhong Ting, Niu Yong, Li Zhen, Chen Guang, Gu Guan …"
"Zhong Ting!"
Wu Ming continued to drink.
"I'm here!"
Under the envious gazes of the crowd, Zhong Ting's breathing became heavy as he stepped out of the line and knelt down.
"You beheaded a Level Twelve, and you followed me to kill the enemy's general and break through the enemy's city … I will now promote you by three ranks and promote you to Rank Eight Battalion Commander!"
"Niu Yong, you bravely took the lead and also contributed greatly. I will promote you to my personal guard!"
"Li Zhen, Chen Guang, Gu Guan … all promoted to captain!"
…
In reality, this First Guard was not Wu Ming's private army. Naturally, they could not do whatever he said.
However, these people had made great contributions, so it was not impossible for them to report it.
Moreover, Wu Ming had left a lot of space, such as four positions for Battalion Commanders. This was actually to place people in the positions. This was not a bad gesture.
"Thank you, Sir Guard!"
These people were all fated by fate, so they immediately knelt down upon hearing his words.
Seeing the gathering of fate energy, Wu Ming could not help but laugh.
At this time, he had a rough idea that the Rank Nine was pure white, the Rank Seven was red, and the Rank Five was golden. As for the purplish green, it could only be found in the Rank Three and above, or even the Superior Grade.
In fact, Zhong Ting had the Golden Natal Life, which was enough to command ten thousand people. He was a talented general and was more than enough to be a Rank Eight Battalion Commander.
The same was true for Niu Yong and the others. They had the Red Natal Life, so they could sit in Wu Ming's position. It was a waste of their talent to be a Rank Eight Battalion Commander.
"There were many talents in my original team. Now, they have become the backbone and wings. No one can take them away, and … it also supports my fate energy …"
Wu Ming was also very satisfied with this.
With such a huge amount of fate energy on his body, it caused his cultivation to advance by leaps and bounds.
He even faintly felt that he had completed his Internal Refinement and was about to succeed.
"After the Alchemist, it is the Sorcerer … It is just that … the Sorcerer part of the Yellow Court Yin Talisman Scripture is incomplete. If it is not completed, although I can break through to become a Sorcerer, I will have no hope of becoming a Sage. If the Sage part is not completed, I will not be able to break through to become a Heavenly Master … But this is a little far …"
After arranging all the generals, Wu Ming took the official document and went to report to his subordinates. He wanted to raise their ranks and get their official uniforms.
At this time, inside and outside of Zhen Ding County, patrolling soldiers could be seen everywhere.
Ever since the surprise attack plan failed, Li Rubi did not give up on the hope of attacking the city. Instead, he transferred the three capitals. At this time, all seven capitals were gathered here. There were twenty thousand soldiers and ten thousand auxiliary soldiers. It was called an army of fifty thousand. The vanguard of the army was aimed directly at the city of Cao Prefecture.
The prefecture magistrate also completely delegated power and ordered Wang Xuanfan to organize the state soldiers. The war was about to start.
In Zhen Ding County, the original governor's office naturally became Li Rubi's general's office.
This courtyard was built extremely luxuriously. There were red bricks and green tiles, carved beams and jade pillars, pavilions, terraces, and pavilions.
At the door, there was a group of soldiers guarding it. It was heavily guarded.
Luckily, Wu Ming was already a general of the guards. His status was precious. After reporting, he received a reply not long after.
However, even so, when the matter was settled and he came out, four hours had passed.
"Wait!"
However, at the door, Wu Ming saw a familiar person.
"It's you!"
He looked at Young Lord Yu and saw that he was wearing a jade robe embroidered with gold and silver threads. He was dressed like a Daoist, but the pearl in his hand had disappeared.
Of course, the most unforgettable thing was that this person stood out from the crowd. His arrogant and disdainful demeanor was something that normal people could not imitate.
The Great Way was that the heaven and earth were not benevolent and treated all living things as dogs.
However, he directly treated the common people of the world as dogs!
Of course, at this moment, when Young Lord Yu saw Wu Ming's eyes, there seemed to be a hint of surprise, but it disappeared in a flash.
"So it's Daoist Yu!"
Wu Ming cupped his hands in greeting.
And this person seemed to be doing quite well. The surrounding officers and soldiers all bowed respectfully and left.
"Follow me, Master Hu wants to see you!"
Young Lord Yu's words were concise and comprehensive. After he finished speaking, he couldn't help but look at Wu Ming up and down. "I can't believe … that you actually climbed so fast in the army. Seventh-grade, tsk tsk …"
Although being a dragon was extremely dangerous, there were also many benefits after entering the system.
At least, this seventh-grade official position and a portion of Crimson Good Fortune every day, even Young Lord Yu couldn't help but be envious when he saw it.
For a cultivator to have such great fortune, it was naturally normal for their cultivation to improve.
"Master Hu? You have a master? "
However, Wu Ming immediately caught the main point. "The Daoist with the surname Hu, could it be …"
"That's right! I have already become Venerable Nanshan's disciple in name and followed him to do some chores … Unfortunately, I can't enter the main hall! "
Nanshan Weng was highly respected in the Nine Mountains Army. It could be said that he was second only to one person and above tens of thousands. Even official disciples could receive the position of an idle Daoist official. They didn't have to fight to the death every day and would receive fortune.
Of course, only a few core disciples had such treatment. For outsiders like Young Lord Yu, who joined from outside, there was no need to hope for such a good thing.
"Let's go!"
Young Lord Yu's large sleeves fluttered as he led the way. Wu Ming hesitated for a moment before following him.
Next to the Prefectural Governor's Office, there was another large house that had been allocated to Venerable Nanshan. There were many servants and maidservants. All kinds of enjoyment were provided. In terms of standards, it was only slightly inferior to Li Rubi's.
"Greetings, Little Perfected Master!"
"Little Perfected Master has brought people to see the Old Perfected Master?"
"Little Perfected Master's Dao techniques are profound, we …"
Obviously, as a disciple of Venerable Nanshan, even if he was just a disciple in name, Young Lord Yu received a lot of flattery.
It was just that his face was cold and he was indifferent. Fortunately, others knew that this was natural and didn't think it was strange.
The two of them continued to go deeper. After walking through a large green garden, a simple and crude thatched house appeared in front of Wu Ming.
"Master! He's here! "
Young Lord Yu faced the wooden door and bowed. His bearing was very humble and respectful.
"Very good! Go down and let him come in himself! "
A voice traveled over. It was faintly sharp and carried an indescribable sense of gloom, causing Wu Ming's body to tremble.
Just by listening to the voice and the good fortune of borrowing objects to pass on his power, Wu Ming knew that this person's Dao techniques were profound and definitely above his own. In fact, this person was the strongest he had ever seen! Even Wu Qing paled in comparison to him!
"Sorry to disturb you!"
Wu Ming took a deep breath and suddenly pushed the door open.
Boom!
As soon as he entered, he habitually squinted his eyes and saw a dense golden aura that even converged into a tide. There were spots of green in the middle. It landed on the head of an old man and was continuously absorbed, as if there was a bottomless pit.
"As expected, it's the fifth-grade Yellow Hall Aura!"
Seeing this, Wu Ming's heart was moved.
He knew that as long as the king issued an edict and conferred the title of a Grand Preceptor, they were usually at the first grade or even beyond the first grade. A Spiritual Master was also at the third grade and above. These were all existences that could extract the fate of the nation. The manifestation of this was greenish-purple in terms of fate!
But now, Li Rubi only had a few counties in his hands. He himself was only golden-purple in terms of fate, so how could he confer a title?
Therefore, the Spiritual Master that he conferred the title of was at most a fifth-grade Yellow Hall Aura.
However, this was also very dangerous.
For the current Li Rubi, the golden fate was also one of the foundations. If it was extracted like this, even if there was a supplement, his foundation would still be weak.
Dao techniques and Buddhist techniques all emphasized that if one didn't follow the king, they wouldn't be able to achieve Dharma.
But if they really succeeded, this country wouldn't be far from collapse. Even the king's body and Dao might disappear!
"Officer Wu! No need to stand on ceremony! "
This old man's face was rosy, and the lines on his face were gentle. He had an amiable expression, and at first glance, he seemed to be an expert.
But he didn't know why, but when he looked into the other person's eyes, Wu Ming felt that every pore on his body was standing up.
At the same time, his nose twitched, and he smelled a smell that was like orchid, musk, and also had a strange fishy smell.
"It's a fox!"
In a flash, Wu Ming already understood everything. "So this Spiritual Master of South Mountain is actually a spirit of a different species. He's an illusion of a fox!"
