It was a Dazhou world.
It had been eight years of peace.
Ever since King Ding, Wu Zhi, invaded the Spiritual State with 100,000 troops and terrified the feudal lords, the situation in the world and the Spiritual State changed three times in a day.
The people of the Spiritual State had suffered from wars for a long time, but Wu Zhi's army was well-disciplined and saved the people from disaster.
The roving bandits and generals were no match for the tigers and wolves under her command, and they were all defeated. In a year or so, more than half of the Spiritual State was under her control. Wherever she went, the people cheered happily and lived in peace and contentment.
On one hand, Wu Zhi recruited refugees and reclaimed the wastelands. On the other hand, he visited famous scholars and invited many local gentry families to help him. After reaching a compromise with some landlords, he quickly gained a firm foothold.
Although the areas he occupied were not completely out of trouble, it was only a matter of time before the rice and wheat were ripe and the people wanted to join him, providing him with soldiers and food supplies.
– In Xiangliu City –
One of Wu Ming's doppelgänger sat on the main seat and was entertaining a group of famous scholars of the Spiritual State, listening to them talk.
While Wu Zhi marched into the Spiritual State, this doppelgänger followed the army. With the main godly palace, this doppelgänger could have as many doppelgängers as he wanted as long as he consumed the World Origin Force, which made it difficult for a doppelgänger to take care of everything.
At this moment, Wu Ming shivered and touched his glabella.
"What's wrong, Gongzi?"
The scholars at the side were all quick-witted. One by one, they stepped forward and showed expressions of concern.
After all, no matter what, this was Prince Ding's husband! It was said that if the couple got along well, they would be great figures.
Many people were secretly jealous as if they were bemoaning the unfairness of fate. They had great talents but didn't get to see them, but the person in front of them stayed at home. Fortune came from the heavens. Not only was he extremely wealthy, but his children would also have the fortune of the True Dragon or at least a King.
"It's okay! What were we talking about? "
Wu Ming waved his hand.
Just now, he controlled the main godly palace which was as small as a mustard seed to return, and he needed some time to digest the huge impact and the shocking news.
Sure enough, the mysterious former master left a backup plan in the main godly palace.
They even found the coordinates of another dimension, which might be the universe where the previous master was!
There was also the Western Fantasy World, the Seer Continent, the abnormalities, the hidden secrets, and the faint aura of eternity, the omen that made him tremble in fear …
Compared to them, the Dazhou World and the Battle of the Nine Cauldrons were like ants to him. If it wasn't for Wu Zhi, Wu Qing, and his son, it wouldn't have caught his attention at all.
"We just said that the unification of the Spiritual State is the trend of the times. This time, General Wu Tiehu will conquer Golden Roc Pass and gain a great victory!"
Seeing that Wu Ming was unwilling to say more, a green-clothed scholar at the side put on a fawning expression and reminded him.
"Not bad!"
"Using strength to attack the weak, this is the general trend!"
Everyone chimed in, and there were also many who spoke arrogantly, as if they wanted to attract Wu Ming's attention. It was as if they were stars surrounding the moon.
"By the way … isn't this just an inspection and recruitment by the noble families of the Spiritual State? Eqian, too. Leave these chores to me … "
Wu Ming complained in his mind while he narrowed his eyes.
Now that he had become a Golden Immortal, his aura-gazing technique had been developed to the extreme. He could see the fate, talents, virtues, and fortune of the people present.
However, he sensed it immediately when he used his spiritual energy.
"After all, they are in a different world. In the Dazhou World, ordinary foreign Golden Immortals are only slightly stronger than Heavenly Immortals, but they can't be opponents of the Celestial Emperor and Jue Tian Immortal Master, who are in this world! Of course … I'm different! "
With the main godly palace, he could connect with the Golden Hall World at any time, and borrowing the power of the world was as easy as breathing.
"This time, after Golden Roc Pass, Ding Bao, the Ninth Heavenly King's hinterland will be lost … This person used to be a vagabond, and when the chaos came, he took advantage of the refugees and built up his power. How many blood debts did he make for the Spiritual State? Fortunately, King Ding is here, and Ding Bao has been defeated again and again. It seems that he will die soon! "
A scholar beside him said loudly. His eyes were blood-red, and no one knew if he had a grudge against this vagabond leader.
It was a pity that this person was hot-blooded, but his life and literary temperament weren't good. It would be his best if he could become a county official in the future.
"Everyone, please speak freely. If we brainstorm, we will surely come up with something!"
Wu Ming raised his wine cup and toasted the people present. With a sincere expression on his face, he said slowly.
Although he used a cheating device, it was still rare to find people with good fortune and literary talent. However, all the people present were young talents of the new generation of the Spiritual State. Although there were some who were just here to make up the numbers, there were still two or three who could be of great use.
As Wu Ming spoke, he stared at the people in the corner with interest.
They were different from the other people that flattered and flattered Chen Xi, and they were rather proud and aloof. They occupied a table for themselves and drank by themselves while enjoying themselves.
"The people in the south table have been silent since the beginning of the banquet. I think they have a plan!"
However, Wu Ming didn't give them the chance. He spoke loudly and attracted everyone's attention.
Shock and uneasiness immediately appeared on the faces of the scholars. They whispered to each other, and Wu Ming heard every single word they said.
"Huh? Isn't that Xu Fu, Yan Gao, and Zhou Shangwen from the Xu Family? "
"These three people were praised by Elder Xu and are known as the 'Three Talents of Xing and Ling'. They have always been aloof and don't seek fame or official positions. Why are they here?"
"I don't know how they attracted Young Master Wu's attention. Since they are favored, we will be in trouble …"
…
"How could a shallow person dare to spout nonsense?"
The three people were stunned. They immediately stood up and bowed. Yan Gao spoke for the three of them.
As soon as he stood up, he immediately seemed different. His voice was loud and clear, like a bell, drum, and jade chime. Beside him was a person with an aloof temperament, while the other was wild and unrestrained. They were both outstanding individuals.
"The three of you are too modest …"
There was a mysterious smile on Wu Ming's face. "You are all great talents, like awls in a bag. No matter where you are, you will stand out. Or … do you think that my virtue is shallow and not worthy of your attention?"
Although he was just joking, what was his status now?
His voice turned slightly cold, and the guards outside glared at him. They put their right hands on the hilt of their swords and were ready to drag these people who dared to insult their young master out. They could beat or kill them at their command.
"We don't dare! We don't dare! "
Yan Gao immediately smiled and tried to smooth things over. "We made a mistake. We will drink three cups of wine as punishment! Three cups of wine as punishment! "
He immediately pulled the sleeves of the two people beside him. They were under the eaves and had to lower their heads. The three of them raised their cups and drank, letting the wine flow down the corners of their mouths and sleeves. "We made a mistake. Please forgive us, Young Master."
"I was just joking …"
Wu Ming's expression changed very quickly. "I haven't asked for your opinion."
"The Spirit State has suffered from the chaos for a long time. Fortunately, with the help of Prince Ding's army, they are unstoppable and invincible. I am not knowledgeable and really don't know more …"
The man with the ethereal temperament bowed and said.
"You are Zhou Shangwen? A talent recommended by the Zhou Family? "
Wu Ming did not care. He opened the official document and drew a red circle under his name. "Very good. Go to the Shogunate tomorrow to listen to my orders!"
This person's luck was not bad. His life was slightly golden and he was blessed by the Nether Virtue. With some experience, he could govern a region and could be considered an accomplished person.
Therefore, he did not talk nonsense and directly decided. This made the scholars beside him very envious, but Zhou Shangwen smiled bitterly.
The three of them were like-minded, but they were not very passionate about fame. However, they were in the pugilistic world and had no choice. Their families were under Prince Ding's rule, so they had to come.
They had originally planned to be perfunctory. Who knew that this chief official would treat the talent selection ceremony as a child's play. It was decided.
Others could not ask for it, but he got it without asking. Seeing so many jealous gazes, he smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Thank you, Young Master!"
However, since he came to the banquet, it seemed that even if the government wanted to become an official, he could not reject it. He could only take it in silence and thank him first.
"Ding Bao is just a candle in the wind. After this person, the only one who is still resisting in the Spiritual State is Ma Meng. This person's power was the strongest in the Spiritual State. Even though Prince Ding attacked him many times, he was still able to stand. Now, he is guarding the Six River Estuary. This is a natural stronghold and he has an army of 30,000. It is very difficult to deal with him …"
Yan Gao thought for a while and said the same.
"Hmm … you are not bad too. Tomorrow, go to the tent with me and listen to my orders …"
Wu Ming waved his hand and decided casually.
This person's luck was similar to Zhou Shangwen's. He was also not bad. However, the last person, Xu Fu, was a real talent. He was comparable to Ceng Yu.
"It seems that Young Master has heard of our names. Today, you can't leave even if you want to …"
Xu Fu was arrogant. After bowing slightly, he returned to the banquet and started to drink.
He was wearing a loose robe with big sleeves. At this moment, his robe was open, and he drank the wine in one gulp. His capacity for liquor was amazing.
After drinking the wine, he sang loudly with a wild attitude. Then, he looked at Wu Ming who was sitting still and watching the storm. Finally, he couldn't hold it anymore and sneered. "Although Prince Ding came to the Spiritual State, I'm afraid he has other intentions, right?"
"Why do you say so, Mr. Xu?"
Wu Ming, on the other hand, had a look of interest and asked directly.
"Uh …"
In this way, Xu Fu was really left alone.
Although he was arrogant, he was not stupid. If he really told Prince Ding's intention, would he still want to kill himself and his nine clans?
However, he felt slightly regretful that he didn't see the shocked expression of the Young Master on the stage.
"This person is like an immovable mountain. He is neither arrogant nor rash, neither proud nor disgraced. His temperament is indeed extraordinary …"
Xu Fu thought silently. Then, he thought of the identity of the Young Master on the stage and had a guess. "Rumors can't be trusted. This person is unfathomable!"
"I've heard that the three of you have a title called the Three Talents of Xing and Ling? Since you are brothers, use them together! "
Fortunately, Wu Ming was not a fool. After a slight smile, he gave Xu Fu a way out.
