Back then, in Dingzhou.
Zhou Zhu watched helplessly as the imperial court's Heavenly Soldiers perished, and even Prince Jin was eaten by a demon.
General Huang Ba committed suicide in despair.
The other Daoists who followed King Jin all ended up tragically.
Fortunately, he had an opportunity. Relying on the Spiritual Pearl of Fang Xian Dao, he managed to escape. His foundation wasn't damaged much, and he survived the battlefield.
At that time, Wang Shun didn't have much power. He was busy taking care of everything after the war, so he didn't specifically chase after someone.
After Zhou Zhu left the battlefield, he didn't even dare to stay in Dingzhou and went straight to the capital.
He didn't sleep for a night. He strolled on the street and somehow came to the old place.
When he passed by King Jin's mansion, he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
He glanced around and saw that the mansion was still the same, but the bustling scene had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Even the guards of the mansion had their heads drooped, giving off a feeling of listlessness.
"Sigh … Once King Jin died, the princess and the prince won't have an easy time …"
Zhou Zhu looked at this scene and suddenly felt a wave of sadness.
He had sincerely helped Prince Jin before, but he didn't expect Prince Jin, who was a true dragon, to die on the battlefield.
It seemed that after a certain immortal was born, everything in this world was changing at a rapid speed.
"This time … I don't know how many Daoist meridians are going to lose money … As far as I know, because King Jin was talented and had a strong providence, many people bet on him … Now they've all been cheated …"
Although he was Mister Zhou of the mansion, Zhou Zhu had no intention of going back.
He had finally broken contact with him, and the backlash had passed. The two sides were already even, so what was the point of going back?
"My Dao foundation is still there, and there's still hope for the Dao … Fang Xian Dao, Fang Xian Dao … Sigh …"
Zhou Zhu originally wanted to join the Fang Xian Dao, but the latter had already closed the mountain gate.
When he came to the capital again, he had another plan. "King Jin is dead and out of the game. The position of Crown Prince will be fought between King Qin and King Yan? However, when I was in King Jin's mansion, I was ordered to gather information about the kings. I know that King Gui is also unconvinced and is secretly preparing to do something … "
King Gui was only 17 years old and had just started his mansion. He was the youngest adult son of the emperor.
To be honest, not many people paid attention to it.
However, in Zhou Zhu's eyes, he was an extremely good stock with great potential.
After all, how could the icing on the cake compare to providing timely help?
"And my bead, it seems like it can only absorb a large amount of Spiritual Qi during the tribulations to help my cultivation …"
Thinking of this, Zhou Zhu no longer hesitated and headed towards Gui Wangfu.
What he didn't know was that after he accepted Fang Xian's' treasure ', he was secretly affected, just like a Perfected Being conferred a title by the imperial court.
Otherwise, with his intelligence and prudence, he wouldn't have made the decision to rely on King Gui so easily.
Zhou Zhu was a decisive person.
Since he had made his decision, he immediately used his connections in the capital to send an invitation to King Gui and was granted an audience.
In a private room of a teahouse.
"Assistant Zhou greets His Royal Highness King Gui!"
Assistant Zhou looked at the young man who had just entered and the guards around him who had increased in strength. He immediately bowed.
"Mister Zhou wishes to see this King, is there a matter?"
King Gui wore embroidered clothes and a jade crown on his head, but he also had a bit of a bearing as he asked with a smile.
"To be honest, I am willing to rely on His Royal Highness and serve you like a dog or a horse! Please take me in, His Royal Highness! "
Zhou Zhu bowed heavily and without hesitation, told him a few secrets of the various Wangfu and Prince Jin's arrangements in the capital.
King Gui's eyes lit up and paced back and forth as if he was making a decision.
Not long after, he made a decision. "I am extremely happy that Mister Zhou can come to help me!"
He really wanted the throne!
Not only did Zhou Zhu have special skills, but he was also once Prince Jin's confidant. He knew a lot of secrets and was well-versed in many arrangements, which would be of great use in fighting for Prince Jin's inheritance.
For this, even if he had to take some risks, he couldn't care less.
"Thank you, His Royal Highness, for taking me in …"
Zhou Zhu stood up. "But my identity is not a secret in the capital, so I will change my name and hide in the dark!"
After all, he was the famous Mister Zhou of Prince Jin's Mansion. Now that Prince Jin's corpse had not even turned cold, it would not be good to turn around and rely on another King.
"Yes!"
This was also King Gui's intention.
He glanced at Zhou Zhu and thought of the identity of the Taoist. It was obvious that Brother Prince Jin had died, but why was he full of energy and did not look like he had suffered any backlash?
This was either that the other party did not really want to rely on him, or that he had some special treasure or secret technique to suppress his fate.
Thinking of this, King Gui felt a little afraid, but the smile on his face became wider. "For Mister Zhou to be able to come, you are my backbone. Your talent is unparalleled in the world, so let's call you 'Zhou Bu' Er '!"
"Bu 'Er? Good! From today onwards, I am Zhou Bu 'Er! "
Zhou Zhu, no, Zhou Bu 'Er, knew that King Gui was giving him a warning. Although he did not know what he was thinking, the expression on his face did not change, and he agreed with a smile.
…
Dingzhou.
Bailiang Mountain.
"Children!"
All the fairies in the mountains stopped what they were doing and listened to the voice.
It was the White Ape Sage!
"Come here!"
Mountain Gentleman and Yu Kong Zi took the lead and led the demons to the highest point of the Demon Court. They saw the White Ape Demon Sage sitting on the clouds, his voice filled with grief and indignation. "Taoist Fang Xian has gone too far. First, he killed my General Wolf, then he killed my people … I will not live under the same sky with them!"
"Teacher!"
Mountain Gentleman shouted. "Please allow us to come out of the mountains and avenge you!"
"Taoist Fang Xian is a great threat to the Demon race. We can't take him down just because we want to. We must increase the strength of the Demon race … I have decided to make three more cauldrons of Emperor Molasses, and when the time comes, you will all have to contribute …"
Fang Xian said calmly.
"Don't worry, Great Sage. We will not be stingy with our blood. Even if we have to turn the entire Bailiang Mountain upside down, we will gather the medicinal herbs for you!"
Many demons hurriedly said, their eyes slightly red.
That was Emperor Molasses!
They could become demons mainly because of the Emperor Molasses rain that night.
This time, if they were to make three more cauldrons, the number of demons would increase by three times, and there would be even more spiritual monsters!
It could be said that if they truly matured, they could set up the entire Dingzhou.
"Yes, Wang Shun also needs to urge the humans to quickly occupy Dingzhou and then cede Bailiang Mountain to us."
Fang Xian's tone changed. "This time, choose more aquatic ones for the Emperor Molasses!"
After saying that, his figure disappeared.
"General Lu, what does Great Sage Grandpa mean by this?"
A demon asked, "Why do we have to share it with the fellows in the water?"
This was an opportunity for their race to expand, so they had to fight for it.
"Idiot!"
Mountain Gentleman smacked him on the head without hesitation. "Teacher is giving us pointers. Our next step is to occupy the south and divide the river with the human imperial court. In this process, we will need the help of the monsters in the water. Do you understand?"
There was a Heavenly River flowing through the nine provinces of the Great Zhou Dynasty, dividing the north and the south.
When the other demons heard this, they immediately understood and cheered. "That's right. The living space of the Demon race must be expanded!"
