In the commander's tent, Chongxuan Chu Liang sat on a chair and looked at a huge map hanging in front of him.
Chung Geng Sheng stood behind him carefully and didn't make a sound.
After a long time, Chongxuan Chu Liang suddenly said, "Jiang Wang is indeed a talent, but he has his own ideas and principles. He won't be loyal to you without any bottom line. It's not easy to control him."
"What I need is not loyalty, but friends." Chung Geng Sheng said.
Chongxuan Chu Liang thought of something and his eyes looked complicated for a moment, "Superiors don't have friends."
"Jiang Wang is a man of his word. He looks peaceful, but he's proud in his bones. If I only take his subordinates, I'll be creating enemies for myself. It's better to keep a distance from him. "
"I think he actually has feelings for a place like Qingyang Town. Isn't that ridiculous? "
"On the contrary, that's what's valuable about it!" Zhongxuan Sheng said, "Treacherous people, cruel and bloodthirsty people, cold-blooded people. Do we lack such people in the Zhongxuan Clan? Do we lack these people in the Qi and even in the whole world? They're everywhere. They're overflowing! "
"People like Jiang Wang are precious. He's the one who can gain people's trust. It's not that he needs us, but we need someone like him who does things in the light. Other than him, who else can set up a banner in Qingyang Town and win people's hearts? "
"Commander, sometimes I think about it." Chung Geng Sheng said, "If one day I lose everything and can only face Jung Genzun with nothing, then who will stand by my side? Fourteenth Prince will definitely do it. Jiang Wang should also do it. "
"Other than him, I can't think of a second person who 'should' do it."
"You asked me why I support him so much. This is the reason."
Chongxuan Chu Liang listened and neither agreed nor disagreed. Instead, he changed the topic and asked, "What do you think of Zhang Yong?"
"The Phoenix Spirit Zhang Family Massacre Case was ordered by the Eleventh Prince to investigate thoroughly. Blue Medal Constable Lin Youxie was specifically in charge of the case. The culprit is at the Inner Mansion Realm and his identity is unknown. "
Chung Geng Sheng did not mention Zhang Yong directly. Instead, he talked about the Inner Palace Stage expert who annihilated the entire Phoenix Immortal Zhang Clan.
"He didn't fight with the Blue Medal Constable, which means that he was afraid of exposing his background.
He committed suicide as soon as he was discovered. This meant that he had long been prepared to sacrifice himself.
He was not even afraid of death, but he was afraid of exposing his roots. This meant that what he was plotting was far greater than his own life and death.
Above life and death, there was either love or hatred. I'm more inclined to the latter. "
Chongxuan and Chu Liang did not say anything.
Chung Geng Sheng continued, "The martial arts that have been handed down from generation to generation have long been lost. There are even nameless weapons left. Not much of their property is left! What did the Zhang family of Fengxian County have that was worth such a scheme? No matter how I think about it, there is only this once glorious surname of 'Phoenix Spirit Zhang'. "
"It seems that there are no loopholes left, but this matter itself is a loophole."
"Let Zhang Yong follow the Eleventh Prince. I don't plan to steal this talent."
At this point, Chongxuan and Chu Liang nodded, "You're quite experienced in judging people and situations. Because of this, I can trust your choice a little. However, you can't escape punishment for violating military law. Go and receive a hundred strokes of the military rod. "
In the army, Chung Geng Sheng did not dare to be mischievous. He only saluted seriously and lifted the curtain to leave.
…
…
After breaking through to the Soaring Dragon Realm, one had the ability to tread on the void and fly. This alone had greatly increased one's combat space and enriched one's combat options.
And with a high-quality escape technique like the Flame Meteor, Jiang Wang left behind the burden and returned to Qingyang Town in a short time.
With the might of a great victory and the virtue of fighting against the epidemic, the entire Qingyang Town could be said to be united as one.
Jiang Wang's orders were carried out smoothly.
One of the things that Chung Geng Sheng asked him to help with was to collect "evidence" related to the Four Seas Business Alliance's crimes in Jia City. In the current situation, this was very simple.
Although Manager Qian fled to the border in a panic, he was killed by Chung Geng Sheng after finding out about Long Mian's whereabouts. A few Transcendents of the Four Seas Business Alliance also died at the hands of the White Bone Path, but a few warriors survived.
To be honest, the so-called "evidence" of what the Four Seas Business Alliance had done in the entire Yang Country during this period of time did not require much effort to collect. There were plenty of them.
There was no need to talk about these trivial matters. In short, the situation in Qingyang Town was settled.
As for the two previous Castellans of Jia City, Jiang Wang killed the new Castellan, Shi Jing, who was a subordinate of the Rizhao Prefectural Governor, Song Guang. Song Guang's attitude was very cautious. But looking at the current situation, Qi's higher-ups were probably in a terrible fix. It was very difficult for them to have the time to deal with a small Qingyang Town.
The White Bone Path behind Long Mian was undoubtedly the most dangerous point, but Long Mian's death was largely due to Rabbit Mian's sneak attack. The internal problems of the White Bone Path would probably make it difficult for their high-level combatants to leave.
As for the White Bone Path's Holy Lord … Chung Geng Sheng had revealed that Chongxuan and Chu Liang had been paying attention to him for a long time.
In short, there was danger, but there were also opportunities.
Jiang Wang's decision to stay in Qingyang Town was not entirely out of impulse.
In the room in front of him, he was lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out. He looked like he could lie there until the end of time.
When Jiang Wang walked in, he did not even move his eyes. He only said weakly, "I thought you wouldn't come back."
"Why do you say that?"
Jiang Wang sat by the bed and turned the fruit platter.
"What's your relationship with that fatty? Fellow disciple? Friend? "
Jiang Wang took a pear, thought for a moment, and replied, "Friend, and also business partner."
"He should have stopped you." Xiang Qian's whole body seemed to be moving only his mouth. "He doesn't look like a soft-hearted person … although he looks harmless."
Jiang Wang bent his finger and flicked the pear. The pear and core fell off automatically, leaving only the white and clean flesh in his hand.
"You're right." He took a bite and let the juice of the snow pear flow in his mouth. He said with some satisfaction, "But I said I would come back."
"Ah!" Xiang Qian suddenly yelled with some anger.
"Ah?" Jiang Wang ate the pear and was puzzled.
"Shouldn't fruit be eaten by injured people?"
"If you want to eat it, peel it yourself … Did I stop you?" Jiang Wang asked.
Xiang Qian raised his head as if he wanted to get up, but he lay down again. "Forget it. Public morals are deteriorating day by day, and people's hearts are not what they used to be. I've known that for a long time. "
Jiang Wang finished the fruit in two or three mouthfuls, then said, "Don't worry. In Qingyang Town, there shouldn't be anyone who can understand your sword formation. I'll tell Zhu Biqiong to forget about it, and I'll make Zhang Hai swear a blood oath. As for my friend, he won't say anything. The only thing you need to consider is that if Rabbit Face escapes, not only will she not hide it for you, she might even exaggerate your strength. "
Xiang Qian hesitated for a long time because he was worried about his sword formation being leaked.
To be honest, Jiang Wang was also very curious about this sword formation that could let him, who was in the Soaring Dragon Realm, have the killing power of an Inner Mansion Realm cultivator.
But it clearly involved Xiang Qian's biggest secret. If he didn't want to say, he definitely wouldn't ask.
As for why his attitude towards Zhu Biqiong and Zhang Hai was different, the two's performance in the previous battle was the reason.
Although Zhang Hai's strength was indeed weak, he was still slacking off a bit too much. Even Dugu Xiao dared to make a move against the rabbit-faced man. Zhang Hai was a Transcendent cultivator, but from start to finish, he had only killed a few Jia City guards.
To put it bluntly, after this battle, Zhang Hai had already lost Jiang Wang's trust, and was no longer in the circle. Even if he didn't immediately leave, he would slowly drift away.
Xiang Qian thought for a moment: "The White Bone Path might not be able to see through it."
Rabbit Face's sneak attack on Dragon Face indicated that there was a problem within the White Bone Path. As for Rabbit Face herself, she naturally concealed it as much as she could. It was normal for her to exaggerate Xiang Qian's flying sword.
And to pin his hopes on the White Bone Path's ignorance …
It could only be said that Xiang Qian was used to running away.
Although his strength could be considered strong, there were many times when he didn't want to directly face problems.
"You'd better prepare for the worst." Jiang Wang said.
"The worst …?" Xiang Qian closed his eyes, not speaking again.
