After Li Zhen captured Ouyang Ke and others, he let go of the followers of Tianshou Palace, and returned to Nanping territory smoothly without any troubles.
When we came to the border between Liang Kingdom and the Kuta Desert, the border troops were still flying the flag of Liang Kingdom. Now that they came back, they had changed their tune and the military flag with the word "Hua" was hanging high.
Li Zhen saw it in his eyes and said nothing, but he was very proud and proud in his heart.
In Li Zhen's previous plan, being able to conquer the country's cultivation world in his lifetime would be comparable to Taizu's achievements, but who would have thought that in just one year, he would already be at the top of the Nanping Domain.
This kind of thing, if it were in the past, I would never have dared to think about it.
Li Zhen and his men did not stay in Liang State and returned directly to Donghua City. During his return, the Yinsha Demon Sect, one of the three major sects of the Demon Sect, received news from Tianshou Palace. Ouyang Ke, Elder Gao and others
Two retinues were captured by the king of the Hua Kingdom in the Nanping Territory and asked to go to Donghua City to redeem them.
When Ouyang Feng, the leader of the Yinsha Demon Sect, received the news, he was shocked and even more angry.
"That's unreasonable!"
Ouyang Feng slapped his hand on the table, showing his domineering attitude and killing intent, making everyone around him shudder.
Ouyang Feng appears to be in his early fifties, tall, with a high nose and deep eyes. He is not angry and intimidating, his eyes are like swords, and his tone is sonorous and powerful.
"Sect Master! The king of China dared to capture the young sect leader and the senior elder. He was so bold that he attacked them directly, destroyed their country, crushed their bones and raised them to ashes. This shows the majesty of our Yinsha Demon Sect."
An elder said indignantly.
"Yes, yes! Dare to deal with our Yinsha Demon Sect and let us redeem people. This is a humiliation to us. If we don't destroy them, it won't be enough to satisfy the hatred in our hearts."
"We are willing to take action, promote the power of my Yinsha Demon Sect, and rescue the young sect leader and Elder Gao back."
"Sect Master! You give the order."
"…………………………"
All Ouyang Feng's confidants asked for help.
Ouyang Feng remained unmoved and glanced at everyone to calm them down.
Elder Gao is one of the six elders of the sect. His strength is extraordinary. It is not easy for even a monk in the Yuanshen realm to capture him. It is not easy for the king of Hua to capture Elder Gao.
Killing is not necessarily a rational act.
The people below were so overwhelmed with anger that they couldn't even think straight.
"Sect Master! The opponent can capture Elder Gao, and his strength should not be underestimated, but if we are asked to redeem him, it will damage the sect's reputation too much."
An old man sat under Ouyang Feng and suggested: "It's better to pretend to redeem the person, and when you see the person, rescue him by force, and then teach him a lesson with thunderous means."
Ouyang Feng quite agreed with this idea and said to the old man: "You can arrange this matter. We will leave for China in five days."
"The sect wants to go there in person? My subordinates can do it for me without having to worry about the sect."
The old man said.
Ouyang Feng waved his hand and said: "In the small Nanping region, someone actually dares to capture my son and the elders of our sect, and even dares to ask for ransom. Naturally, my sect leader wants to open his eyes."
In the eyes of the immortal cultivators in the Taiping Region, the Nanping Region is just a rural place. They have never taken a direct look at it. They don't want to do something shocking, which will inevitably arouse curiosity.
This matter spread out from nowhere. The news that Ouyang Ke and Elder Gao were captured by the king of China quickly spread throughout the Taiping Region. For a while, everyone was curious about Li Zhen and also laughed at the Yinsha Demon Sect for losing face.

After Li Zhen and others returned to China and arranged for others to leave, he went to the imperial study alone and quickly summoned Uncle Zhang to learn about the government affairs.
Since Uncle Zhang entered the cabinet, all state affairs have been on his shoulders. It has only been a few months and a lot of gray hair has grown on his head. However, his energy and energy are extremely strong. It is obvious that he is very interested in the current work.
Very enthusiastic.
Although Li Zhen and Zhang Zichen have a relationship of monarch and minister, in private, Li Zhen still calls them elders.
"Uncle Zhang! How is Liang Guo doing his work?!"
Zhang Zichen knew that Li Zhen had taken a trip to the Kuta Desert these days, so he smiled slightly and reported the progress truthfully.
"It is impossible for Liang Guo's work to be completed in a short time. However, because Liang Guo Gong is very cooperative, the progress is still very fast, and the ministers agree with your majesty's enfeoffment system. This method can greatly reduce the burden on the court...
…………………”
After Li Zhen came back, he had an hour-long conversation with Zhang Zichen. After the government affairs were over, Zhang Zichen informed Li Zhen of important news, which surprised and delighted Li Zhen.
"Your Majesty! Now our country has gained a powerful person from the Earth Realm. What a joy to congratulate!"
Zhang Zichen reported to Li Zhen.
"Another Earth Realm expert?"
Li Zhen didn't react for a while. He was surprised and asked quickly.
"Your Majesty, you are really a noble man who forgets things. The people who are promoted to this level are the elders of the rich family."
When Li Zhen heard this, he patted his head and realized that he had obtained many treasures from Yu Zhen and Yu Qing before, including a rebirth elixir. After Li Zhen got this elixir, he did not swallow it for himself, but gave it to a wealthy elder to take.
After the wealthy elders obtained this elixir, they were sure to enter the realm of the underworld.
Li Zhen has been quite busy recently, so he forgot about this matter. When Zhang Zichen reminded him, he immediately recalled it.
"Look at my brain, I've forgotten all these things."
Li Zhen joked.
In my heart, I am very happy that the rich man has been promoted to a higher level.
"This is a great event for our country, and we must celebrate it properly."
Li Zhen's grandfather Zhou Qian was promoted to a higher realm, and a grand and solemn celebration ceremony was held. For a wealthy man to be promoted to a higher realm, celebrations are definitely indispensable. This is not only a celebration, but also an event that demonstrates the prestige of the country. It kills two birds with one stone.
After Li Zhen and Zhang Zichen separated, they went directly to the clan mansion to meet with the elders of the clan to congratulate them in person and discuss the celebration.

Yanfu.
In the past, the Yan Mansion was well-established, but since the Yan Party was 'purged', the Yan Party's influence in the court has been greatly affected, and has even reached the point of being marginalized. As a result, the Yan Mansion will naturally lose its former glory.
Today's Yan family is quite complaining about Li Zhen, believing that Li Zhen has no credibility when he crosses the river and burns bridges. Unfortunately, Li Zhen has consolidated his power now, and the Yan Party does not pose the slightest threat, so the Yan family can only choose to swallow their anger.
Li Zhen did not make Yan Xuan his queen and kept his promise. This was the fundamental reason why the Yan family complained about him. However, Li Zhen was not an ungrateful person. Li Zhen kept in mind the Yan family's breach of trust because he had always had trouble before.
He didn't have time to explain, but on the second day after he came back, Li Zhen visited Yan Mansion in person.
