Chapter 122 Reaction (please subscribe for the third update!)
The news that Taoist Qing Niu had broken through the golden elixir was like a whirlwind, sweeping through the entire Annan Dao cultivation world.
Annan Road, Jiedushi Mansion.
A middle-aged man with a round figure and a very rich appearance was sitting on a Taishi chair, half-squinting his eyes and listening to the report of his spies.
"I understand, go down."
The spy lowered his head and retreated.
The middle-aged man thought for a while and suddenly asked:
"Mr. Shang, what do you have to say?"
"Sir, Shang feels that there must be something fishy about this matter."
I saw a scribe in white walking out of the curtain behind him. He had a handsome face and a few wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, but he didn't look old, but added a bit of maturity.
Middle-aged man: "..."
"Say something humane."
The scribe in white sighed and said: "Taoist Qingniu has broken through the golden elixir at this moment, and Shang thinks it is related to the previous secret palace's incarnation.
When the secret palace came to the world, I don't know how many people got the opportunity.
Taoist Qingniu may be one of them, he just walks a little faster.
Since he invited your Excellency, you can just send someone to check it out.
As for his purpose, it actually has nothing to do with adults.
Could it be that since you are a military governor, can you really control the entire Annan Road?"
The middle-aged man is the nominally highest ruler of Annan Road, Annan Jiedushi Yang Lu.
The words of the scribe in white were a bit disrespectful, but Yang Lu did not get angry, because if he wanted to get angry, he would have been angry to death these years.
"Hey, why did my father leave such a mess to me?"
Yang Lu's fat face was quite distressed:
"When he was the military governor, every time he coughed, Annan Dao would tremble three times. I finally waited for him to die and took over the throne. Unexpectedly, one by one the masters came out.
My role as a governor is totally meaningless."
The Jiedu Envoy was originally a special position established by the Tang Dynasty for border security. It integrated military, political and legal powers. A Jiedu Envoy's office was a small imperial court.
In the 259th year of the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty could not escape the shortcomings of the feudal dynasty.
That year, a vision came from heaven, and some people took this as an excuse to cause a rebellion within the Tang Dynasty.
In order to wipe out the rebels as quickly as possible, the Jiedu envoys, which were originally only used on a few borders, were forced to use them nationwide.
Later, the rebellion subsided, and Jiedushi was unable to lose his tail. If it were not for the concerns about the Tang Dynasty's more than 200 years of history and orthodox reputation, I don't know how many people would have become kings.
Among them, the Annan Road Jiedushi was the beneficiary of that rebellion.
Yang Lu's father was the first generation of Annan Jiedushi.
By the time Yang Lu became the governor, the world of cultivation in the Tang Dynasty had begun to take shape, with various cultivation sects and cultivation families.
Especially after the first Jindan real person appeared, the secular army could no longer have any effect.
If Yang Lu's father hadn't taken precautions and trained a group of first cultivators early on, he, the Jiedushi, would have had his head taken away by the so-called master.
Fortunately, the aura environment in the secular world was so poor that most of the people who were wandering around in the secular world were ordinary casual cultivators. In addition, the real top masters were still within the imperial system, which frightened the monks in the Tang Dynasty.
For example, the first golden elixir in the Tang Dynasty was also the first Nascent Soul, the number one true cultivator in the Tang Dynasty, and the current head of Qintian Prison - Chen Tiangang.
Therefore, those monks who do not want to be bound by the imperial court are hiding from the world and practicing hard, waiting for the coming of the great world.
Only then has the whole world been able to maintain a relatively peaceful order for several decades.
But Yang Lu knew that this peace would not last long.
The emergence of the Secret Mansion means that a succession of inheritances that can subvert the imperial court has appeared. Chen Tiangang is so powerful, doesn't he have the opportunity in the Secret Mansion?
With decades of preparation and an increasingly suitable environment for practice, Yang Lu almost concluded that a great chaos was about to occur.
In order to protect himself, he has also been actively winning over various masters in recent years, such as Biyun Patriarch of Biyun Sect. In order to win over him, he did not hesitate to marry his daughter to his disciple, Yun, who is known as the golden elixir seed.
Thousands of empty spaces.
The result was rejected.
Later, Patriarch Biyun apologized and asked another of his disciples to marry his daughter, barely forming an alliance.
If it were placed in his father's time, no matter how high these people were, they would not be as powerful as they were.
He is just like a lackey under the door, like a urinal.
Married girls think highly of them and dare to refuse, and they don’t want to live anymore!
But now that people have reached the sky, everything is different.
Yang Lu had a frown on his face, and the flesh on his face was squeezed together. He looked very distressed, but he looked quite happy.
"I just regret that my qualifications are not enough. If I were Chen Tiangang, what could these so-called Jindan masters do?
As I am the master of such a large business in Jiedushi Mansion and have all the resources of the Tao at my disposal, why not worry about becoming the number one expert in Annan Tao!"
So this is the reason why you marry so many housewives and have so many children?
The scribe in white complained silently.
This Jiedushi master married seventy-six families and gave birth to nearly two hundred children.
But it's really useful. One of the strongest descendants has already broken through the foundation building under his training.
Even he was married to a daughter by Master Jiedushi.
Although they are similar in age, in name only, Jiedushi is still his father-in-law.
Of course, in order to show respect for him, Jiedushi always treated him as Mr. Shang and did not take advantage of his seniority.
I muttered for a while.
Yang Lucai accepted his fate and said, "Just as you said, send someone over to deal with it."
"This Qingniu Taoist has a mysterious origin and a deep background. I suspect that he is from the imperial court above. This time I just want to find out his details.
But if the person who goes there is missing, not only will nothing be found, but others may also look down upon my Jiedushi Mansion.
So, Mr. Shang, how about you make a trip for me?"
The scholar in white was silent for a while, then he cupped his hands towards Yang Lu and said:
Eighteen cultivation sects have received invitations from Taoist Qingniu.
Regardless of whether they were familiar with Taoist Qingniu or not, they all responded with a friendly attitude to the invitation from this new Jindan.
Even if the sect leader is not the one who goes there, it is the powerful elders of the sect who lead the congratulations.
In the Spirit Sword Gate.
Li Hu received a little more invitations than others.
"Senior Brother Sect Master, what is written in the letter?"
The young junior sister on the side came over curiously, and her attitude was quite friendly.
Li Hu could smell the fragrance coming from the girl. Junior sister Qing'er had become less and less wary of him recently.
He took a deep breath silently and cleared away his distracting thoughts.
"A powerful monk has broken through the golden elixir and wants to invite people from our Spirit Sword Sect to attend his golden elixir ceremony."
Li Hu explained, taking two steps away without leaving any trace.
"Golden elixir monk!"
The girl's eyes lit up and she said coquettishly to Li Hu:
"Senior brother, sect master, can I go with you? I haven't seen a living Jindan monk yet."
Li Hu smiled bitterly: "My second brother is also there, he seems to be over there too."
Still doing well.
The letter also introduced Fang Chang's current situation, and his words revealed that Master Jin Dan admired him very much and wanted to call him as his son-in-law.
And he was not a fool. Fang Chang had been away for a while, so there was some truth in it. He slowly thought about it and got a taste of it.
When Fang Chang left, he certainly found a way out for them, but he didn't make way for him.
They clearly said they wanted to take advantage of him, but every time, he was the one sitting back and enjoying the benefits.
As for Fang Chang taking away more than a million spirit stones, which almost brought the Lingjian Sect to financial crisis, Li Hu didn't remember it at all.
It was all because he did not follow Fang Chang's instructions. He felt soft-hearted and secretly improved the welfare of his disciples, which almost caused a big mess in the end.
This made him feel that he was not management material.
"If you go over this time, please invite your second brother to come back. Give him the position of sect leader, and I will just be an idler."
An idea occurred in Li Hu's mind and he couldn't get rid of it.
When the young junior sister heard that Fang Chang was there, she couldn't help but tremble.
Obviously they haven't met each other a few times, but they are just scared.
But when she saw Li Hu's resolute face, she suddenly gained confidence again.
"Then I'll go too. I believe that the sect master, senior brother, will definitely protect me."
Li Hu looked at the girl's bright smile and couldn't help but laugh.
"Then let's go together. When you go back, ask Aunt Qin if she wants to go. You can go shopping together."
I didn’t expect there would be an update, this chapter is also updated for the pioneers, the biggest brother on the list, yyds!!
