The start of the year 3918 of the Daoist calendar was a relatively peaceful year.
There was still constant friction between the countries, but no major events such as the destruction of a country had occurred yet.
April 13th. A piece of news spread rapidly in the southeast region.
Qu and Zheng had been enemies for many years, and there had always been conflicts at the border.
On the thirteenth day of the fourth lunar month, the Qu Kingdom's border general, an Outer Building expert of the Military School, was assassinated on his way back to his camp.
It was said that there were three assassins who surrounded the border general and killed him. He did not even have the chance to mobilize his army.
The assassins claimed to be from an assassin organization called "No Door to Hell". They did not care about their position, only about benefits. As long as the price was high enough, there was no target that they could not kill.
In the eyes of the truly powerful people.
The impact of this incident did not lie with a new assassin organization.
In the southeast region, the small countries, including Qu and Zheng, were in an awkward situation.
To the north was Mu, to the east was Qi's territory, and to the southwest was Jing.
It could be said that they were sandwiched between these powerful countries, and there was almost no chance of success.
For example, a country like the Yang Kingdom was directly attached to the Qi Kingdom.
As for countries like the State of Qu and the State of Zheng, they insisted on being independent.
Anyone with a discerning eye knew that the relationship between Qu and Zheng as old enemies was simply untenable. The friction between the two countries was more like an indication of their attitude — this little brother had no ambition to rise up, so please rest assured, big brothers around him.
But at this time, Qu's border general was assassinated. It was said that the "enemy" Zheng hired the assassins to invade Qu.
Wasn't this nonsense?
However, this specious news spread widely in Qu, and many soldiers and civilians were angry.
The higher-ups of Qu could not say it publicly. "Don't get the wrong target. Our enemy is not Zheng, but those powerful countries." The public opinion could not be suppressed in time, and it became more and more intense.
The Kingdom of Qi was the overlord of the East. So, it was impossible for the Kingdom of Qi to be unaware of this.
Junggenjia knew, and so did Chung Geng Sheng, who was qualified to participate in some high-level meetings.
When he told Jiang Wang about this in the Tian Fu Mystic Realm, Jiang Wang, who was in the Yang Country and closer to the Qu Country, was completely unaware.
"I heard that the leader is a traitor from the You Kingdom." Chung Geng Sheng said: "His name is Yin Guan."
Jiang Wang's heart skipped a beat. "I think I know him."
He then briefly told Chung Geng Sheng about how he met Yin Guan.
Chung Geng Sheng pondered for a while and said, "An assassin organization that's eager to make a name for themselves isn't worth much. He probably wouldn't be able to survive for long. No matter how much of a genius Yin Guan is, it's useless. However, some things were hard to say. You can contact him if you have the chance, just in case he might come in handy one day. "
Jiang Wang was speechless. "On the one hand, you say it's not valuable, but on the other hand, you want to make use of it as much as possible?"
"He's poor, so he has to be careful with his spending." Chung Geng Sheng smiled. "The children of the poor grow up early."
After saying this, he couldn't help but ask, "Is that Yin Guan really as much of a genius as you say? How do you think he compares to me? "
Jiang Wang thought about the battle Yin Guan had with Zheng Chaoyang outside the 27 cities of the You Kingdom. He said honestly, "He should be able to fight a hundred of you."
Chung Geng Sheng nodded. "Don't be discouraged."
Jiang Wang: "Hm?"
"I can fight three of you now, which means he can fight three hundred of you." Chung Geng Sheng chuckled. "How desperate do you feel?"
Opening the Heaven and Earth Door was amazing.
Jiang Wang couldn't refute this.
He could only make a mental note. Damn fatty, just you wait.
"But speaking of which, you really don't have to be impatient," Chung Geng Sheng said seriously. "We've all broken through step by step, and our foundations are solid. That Yin Guan is like you said. In that kind of environment, he had to realize his potential too early. This might not be a good thing. He might be lacking in the future. "
Chung Geng Sheng came from a top aristocratic family and had a broad vision. The direction was clear, and he could see the problem at a glance.
Actually, when Jiang Wang saw Yin Guan's strength for the first time, it was impossible for him not to be moved.
There were too many geniuses in this world. He was afraid that he would be eliminated by the times and unable to control his own fate.
This was reflected in his efforts to seize every moment to cultivate. This came not only from his desire for revenge, but also from this sense of urgency.
Back in Tangshe Town, Zhang Linchuan had said, "Every moment is urgent."
It might have been a sincere sigh.
"I understand," Jiang Wang said.
Take Chung Geng Sheng as an example. Although his Dao Meridian was only a dragon now, it would only take a thought for him to reach the Inner Palace. He wouldn't choose this because he wanted to be able to go further in the future.
Of course, he wasn't as strong as Yin Guan now, but that might not be the case in the future.
Before the end of the conversation, Jiang Wang casually asked if he could spread the news of Binding the Tiger.
Chung Geng Sheng's attitude was very casual. "Since I've given you the Dao technique, how you deal with it is your own business. Even if you announce it now and spread it throughout the world, it's fine. "
"Of course, don't think about throwing it into the Dao Platform in exchange for contribution points," Chung Geng Sheng said, and then smiled slyly. "Because I've already done it."
Jiang Wang: "…"
… …
After another round of crushing defeat, Jiang Wang withdrew from the Great Illusionary Realm and decided not to fight with the fatty in the short term.
He had had enough of his smug appearance. Moreover, he was just a poor commoner. It wasn't good for him to keep giving credit to this rich dog.
Jiang Wang didn't pay much attention to the organization No Door to Hell. The matters of Mo Kingdom and Zheng Kingdom didn't involve the Yang Kingdom.
No Door to Hell, No Door to Hell.
As he muttered this name, Jiang Wang couldn't help but think of the white-haired old woman's venomous curse in the Twenty-Seventh City.
"I curse you all. With my flesh, my hair, my life, my everything, I curse you all! I'm willing to walk through hell on a mountain of swords and enter hell on a sea of fire. As long as you all … suffer the same pain as me! "
What kind of bone-deep hatred was that?
That kind of city, that kind of country … Did they really have a future?
… …
After finishing his evening class, Jiang Wang was meditating.
Buddhists said, "Fortune is not given away."
People said, "Merit is not given away."
The "fortune" that referred to Buddhist merit was expanded to refer to the "merit" that referred to all hard work.
It meant that all the merit and hard work in the world wouldn't be wasted.
Jiang Wang believed in this principle.
It was already late at night. Suddenly, he heard a gust of wind.
The wind squeezed through the window and gently curled around.
A bit of cold light bloomed in the dark shadow.
Jiang Wang suddenly opened his eyes. Binding Tiger was activated!
The other party was dazed for a moment and broke free from the wood energy binding him. While still in the air, he had already turned around.
Jiang Wang knew that he had already used Binding Tiger many times. If someone wanted to deal with him, they would have prepared in advance.
Fortunately, he didn't place all his hopes on Binding Tiger.
Chang Xiangsi laid across her knees and hummed in its scabbard.
Clang!
Suddenly, a yellow talisman floated out and stuck to the blade. Chang Xiangsi instantly fell silent.
It was actually temporarily sealed.
The other party clearly knew about Jiang Wang's fighting style and had made a lot of preparations.
At this time, the black shadow was already close, but suddenly, his vision blurred. He didn't seem to see Jiang Wang, but a sea of flowers. Many flowers, a sea of flowers.
Illusionary Daoist Technique, a sea of flowers.
The black shadow quickly calmed down and cleared the illusion, searching for the target's real body.
The flowers bloomed one after another, as if they were endless.
Jiang Wang was clearly sitting at the head of the bed, but he seemed to be on the horizon.
The black shadow suddenly felt alarmed. A yellow talisman suddenly flew out and exploded in front of him.
It turned out that the flower just now wasn't an illusion. It was Jiang Wang's Flame Flower mixed in with the sea of flowers.
After so long of research and practice, Jiang Wang couldn't burn a city with Flame Flower, but it wasn't difficult to replace the flowers in the sea of flowers with Flame Flower. Moreover, it was impossible to guard against the combination of illusion and reality.
A fierce wind blew, expelling the Flame Flower that could cause substantial damage. The black shadow looked for an opportunity to burn a talisman and swiped his finger in front of his eyes.
He finally saw Jiang Wang!
But he saw a thorn-shaped crown flash across Jiang Wang's head.
The wood energy in the black shadow's body instantly went berserk. This time, the means he prepared couldn't resist at all.
Crown of Thorns, superimposed Binding Tiger.
The black shadow stopped in place. When he was released, Jiang Wang was already standing beside him.
The sheathed long sword rested on his spine.
The faint sharpness of the sword energy told him that if Jiang Wang spat out the sword energy, his Tongtian Palace would be destroyed.
Years of hard work turned to ashes!
