In the Qingxin Hut, Chung Geng Sheng continued to talk about the history of the Sea-fishing Tower.
"Most of the existing sects in the offshore islands were newly established after the battle of the world going to the sea. Before that, almost all the sects on the sea were destroyed by the attack of the Sea Clan. Only one sect was an exception … "
Chung Geng Sheng thought for a moment and said, "No, to be precise, there should be two."
"Which two?" Jiang Wang asked.
"One is Mojiu, and the other is the Sea-fishing Tower."
"Mojiu?"
Jiang Wang already knew about the Sea-fishing Tower, and the name Mojiu was hard not to associate.
In the myth, the place where the sun rose was called "Mojiu".
The huge overlord that once unified the Eastern Region was also named "Yang".
In the northwest, it stopped at the endless quicksand. In the southwest, it stopped at the Sword Peak Mountain of the State of Great Xia. In the west, it entered the Central Region and competed with the State of Jing. At that time, the State of Great Xia was like the sun in the sky. It was not an exaggeration to say that it was the State of Sunrise.
Strictly speaking, the offshore islands used to be the territory of the State of Great Xia.
"The reason why I've changed my view of this sect is because, as a sect, it was indeed established after the battle at the sea between all the cultivators in the world. But its history of guarding the sea border is far longer than these years. "
Chung Geng Sheng said seriously, "Its predecessor was an army of the State of Great Xia. The history of guarding the sea border is almost as long as that of the State of Great Xia. But when the State of Great Xia was on the verge of destruction, the last Great Xia emperor wantonly mobilized the army and staged the final madness. Only this army refused to return to the capital. "
"Because they believed that compared to the glory of the State of Great Xia, they had something more worthy of protecting, and that was the peace of the human race's sea border!"
"It was because of this army, the Sea-fishing Tower, and the defense of the original sects in the offshore islands that the cultivators of the world could later go to the sea and drive the Sea Clan back to the Bewildering World."
"But after that war, the sea border regained its peace. The commander-in-chief of that army killed himself with his sword. Because the State of Great Xia had fallen, the royal bloodline was cut off. As a general of the State of Great Xia, he felt that he had let down the country. After his death, the remaining people inherited his will and continued to guard the sea. They were all from the Moo Kingdom, but the Moo Kingdom had already been destroyed. Thus, they established their sect under the name 'Moo Valley', implying that they would always be at the place where the sun rises, carrying coffins and guarding the door! To show that we do not forget our homeland. "
Jiang Wang heaved a long sigh. "It's moving!"
"As for Fishing Sea Tower …" Chung Geng Sheng said, "Their history is even longer. It was said that the Sea Race had made a comeback during the calamity that swept through the Near Ancient Era. The ancestor of the Fishing Ocean Tower was overseeing the World's Edge Stage. Firmly guard the sea, one man, one pole, fishing the dragon from the horizon! That's why the whole world recognized the Fishing Sea Tower's rights in the offshore islands. Even when the Zhong State dominated the eastern region and looked down on the world, they never expelled the Fishing Sea Tower. "
One man, one pole, fishing the dragon from the edge of the world!
How awe-inspiring and bold was this!
"It really makes one yearn for it. I wish I could see it with my own eyes!" Jiang Wang sighed.
"Of course, this is only the legend of the Fishing Sea Tower. There's no historical evidence, so there's no way to confirm its authenticity. However, the Fishing Sea Tower has indeed made indelible contributions to the defense of the Sea Race for thousands of years. "
Chung Geng Sheng patted his head lightly, seemingly having a headache. "All in all, the Fishing Sea Tower has a glorious history, great contributions, powerful strength, and unparalleled influence in the offshore islands. It's almost impossible for you to change the sea festival that they've already set. "
"My uncle does operate in the offshore islands, but we're not close. Secondly, the Junggenjia's influence in the sea is really not enough. Even Chongji Island was recently exchanged from the Tian Family, and they only have ten years of development rights. Even if I bet all my chips, I still won't be able to stand at the same gambling table as the Fishing Sea Tower in the offshore islands. "
Chung Geng Sheng's uncle, Chongxuan Minghe, was the fourth son of the old marquis, Chongxuan Yunbo. He spent most of his time developing overseas and rarely returned to Linzi.
His third brother, Chongxuan Mingshan, had died in battle, and a large part of the blame was on his second brother, Chongxuan Mingtu. Therefore, he inevitably had complicated feelings toward Chongxuan Mingtu's son, Chung Geng Sheng. He had never made things difficult for Chung Geng Sheng in all these years, but they weren't close either.
The last time the two had contacted each other was because of Jiang Wang. When Chung Geng Sheng was gathering intelligence on Hai Zongming, he had specially asked him to do it. At that time, he didn't refuse.
However, it was different this time. Zhongxuan Minghe might not care about Hai Zongming, and he was far away from the islands near the sea. This involved the entire Fishing Sea Tower, so even if he wanted to, he was powerless.
With Chung Geng Sheng's family background and Chung Geng Sheng's intelligence, it was almost impossible.
This meant that saving Zhu Biqiong was indeed an extremely difficult matter.
Jiang Wang trusted Chung Geng Sheng's intelligence more than anyone else and was certain of his judgment.
However, he held his sword with both hands and placed it across his knees, saying, "Zhu Biqiong was tortured for me. Without news of her, I couldn't have killed Hai Zongming."
His voice was very calm, and because of this calmness, it seemed even more resolute. "Even if it's impossible, I still have to do everything I can."
Chung Geng Sheng was silent for a long time before saying, "It's useless for an ant to try to shake a tree. If you want to shake a tree, you have to borrow the wind."
He didn't want to say these things. He didn't want Jiang Wang to do too much for Zhu Biqiong, but he didn't want to watch Jiang Wang take such a futile risk.
After all, it was this kind of Jiang Wang, this kind of Jiang Wang, this kind of person who always kept his word, who valued friendship and righteousness, that had won his trust back then. Moreover, this kind of person had accompanied him until now.
Therefore, he finally gave his suggestion. "Mogg Valley worked too hard in the bewildering world, so it's hard for their forces to develop. The other sects lack a foundation and even less prestige. Today, in the offshore islands, only Da Qi's voice can compare to Fishing Sea Tower's. However, Da Qi's voice is not yours or mine. You and I are far from being able to represent Da Qi. "
So who could represent Da Qi?
With Jiang Wang's current status, he didn't have the right to meet the emperor at any time. They didn't even need to think about the emperor who could represent Da Qi the most. The other Grand Marshals and Da Qi's Prime Ministers were all the same.
The only people he could come into contact with were the princes and princesses of the Jiang imperial family.
A hopeless prince like Jiang Wuyong definitely couldn't do it.
To a certain extent, only those "Palace Masters" had the right to speak on behalf of Da Qi.
However, to the Junggenjia, getting close to a prince who wanted the throne was a very dangerous behavior. With Junggenjia's own strength and foundation, there was no need for him to support the throne.
Therefore, Jiang Wang had to step forward himself. He asked them to do it in his own name. Chung Geng Sheng and the Junggenjia behind him wouldn't play any role in this.
Then, this was the time to prove his personal value.
In other words, it was the time to prove his value to the people of Qi. That kind of value might not be completely equivalent to Jiang Wang's own, but it would undoubtedly be more recognized and more convincing.
For Jiang Wang's promise, who would be willing to pay?
How much would be the price?
