On the other side, the Shenxing Taibao delivered the news to the Imperial City, went straight to the Daming Palace, and delivered it to Ji Lingguang.
"First I killed Ji Bogu, then defeated Lu Tianpeng, and now even Zhu Hui'an has personally come to plead guilty. Even when I was promoted to the fourth rank at the beginning of the year, I didn't have this ability. This kid actually has such ability at the fifth rank.
"
Ji Lingguang looked suspicious, and couldn't help but wonder, 'Is this kid going to practice dual cultivation with her?'
After thinking about it, it seems that this is the only explanation that can be explained. Otherwise, no matter how talented he is and how he has practiced "Qi Grave", his accumulation of skills will not be as good as those who have lived for decades or hundreds of years.
Guys, not to mention the gap in Daoguo magical power.
It’s impossible for him to accommodate all the unique Tao Fruits, right?
'If this is really the case, you will have to make fun of Tianxuan's coquettish hoof next time we meet. He even hooks up with his own disciples. How dare you laugh at me for eating young grass?'
Ji Lingguang thought like this and ordered in a very happy mood: "Write an edict to ask Jiang Li, the head of the Jiang family, to go to Liangzhou to quell the rebellion."
The implication is that Jiang Li has naturally been regarded as the head of the Jiang family.
At the same time, this edict was also regarded as a platform for Jiang Li, so that the people of the Ji family would not dare to retaliate openly, and it could be regarded as saving the lives of some clan members.
When the maid on the side heard the words, she quickly said yes, and then began to write Ji Lingguang's instructions in formulaic sentences. After Ji Lingguang sealed it, she sent it to him.

On the same day, in the Taoist Sect, on the Bajing Mountain, two Taoists, one in the middle and one in the green, stood on the cliff, looking up at the sky.
At this time, it was approaching dusk and the sky was dark, but a cloud could be seen emerging from the sky. It was yellow at the top and white at the bottom. It was several feet long, like a big flag, flying across the sky, bringing a cold and chilling feeling for no reason.
"When Chi You's flag is seen, the king will conquer all directions."
The Taoist in front looked both middle-aged and old, with the vigor of youth without any contradiction. He looked at the clouds and said leisurely: "Wars in the world have begun since then. Is this the opportunity you want to wait for?"
?”
"Yes." The young Taoist behind him nodded.
This young man was wearing a white Taoist robe, with sword-shaped eyebrows on his temples. There was a fierce color between his eyebrows. His hair was unknotted in a bun, and his long hair was scattered freely, glowing with a platinum color, like fine steel.
"There is a war between Master Gou Chen and I want to be promoted to Gou Chen. This is a good opportunity."
The young Taoist's words were like the sound of a sword, with a strange clang and a sharp edge that appeared with the sound, and the surrounding vegetation, mountains and rocks were coated with a layer of steel.
"But you won't succeed."
The Taoist in front sighed softly, "When I traveled west, I destroyed the madman's body and blocked the path to enlightenment. These two, and even Karma Tathagata, they will not let you succeed in promotion. The rest of the third-grade Taoist friends,
I won’t just sit back and watch.”
"What about Master?" The young Taoist was unmoved. Instead, he asked about a person who did not appear in the preface.
"Master has lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests for these years and rarely takes action, but every time he takes action, it is to prevent people from being promoted to the second level. Back then, he killed the master of the Dragon Palace and caused the Qinglong Daoguo to live in Kyushu. A hundred years ago, he traveled westward and fought thousands of miles away. He first destroyed Na Ji
The physical body of a madman later discussed with the Enlightened One, confusing his mind and blocking his way. Will he take action against his disciple again this time?"
The sharp words of the Taoist pointed directly at the past of the person in front of him, but the Taoist in front, the latter's master, fell into a brief silence at this moment.
After a while, he said calmly: "No."
"Thank you, Master."
The young Taoist curtsied, then turned around and left.
It seems that he came here just for these two words.
But before he left, a stream of light came from behind, drew an arc, and came to the young Taoist.
The Taoist took a closer look and saw that it was a jade slip with several large characters on it - "The True Secret of Nine Heavens to Destroy Demons".
"If you haven't come, I can't help but lick my face and send it away. It's rare to see me today, so I just want to give this to you."
A faint sound came from behind, making the young man's eyes move slightly.
"Thank you Master."
He whispered, but it was much warmer than the previous sentence.
Then, the young Taoist put away the jade slips, bowed again, and left, leaving only his master on the cliff, looking at the sky.
"If you had waited another three years, you might still have a chance to be promoted, but it's a pity that you don't want to wait."
The eldest Dao Lord among the top six in the world looked at the sky and said softly: "That's all, let Pindao see how much those two fellow Daoists have grown over the years."
His gaze seemed to travel through time and space, with two figures, one black and one white, reflected in his left and right eyes.

It's dusk, Luchuan County, Liangzhou.
A soldier guarding the city looked up at the sky and saw clouds passing through the sky. He immediately shook his dozing companion beside him and said, "Look, Sir, there is auspiciousness!"
The companion was shaken so much that he almost knocked himself against the city wall. He finally stood still and said angrily: "What auspiciousness, we are celebrating the New Year. There are still floods outside, and we have to keep vigil. I don't think it is auspicious, but more evil."
mega."
Even so, he couldn't help but be curious and looked along his companion's finger. As a result, he saw the cloud like a big flag streaking across the sky in the distance, and below it, there was a crowd of people approaching.
The crowd took it seriously and even erected several large flags with the word "Peace" written on them.
"Taipingjiao!"
Da Lang opened his voice, picked up the gong at hand and struck it, "The Taiping Cult is here."
The sleepy environment was suddenly broken. Pairs of soldiers climbed up the city wall with crossbows. There was also a sudden burst of white gas, and the local county guard walked out from it.
"As expected, he is a demon from the Taiping Religion."
The county guard Zhang Pan had a lot of cultivation and saw the military flags at a glance. He immediately ordered the archers to be ready to shoot arrows at any time. He opened the crossbow and set up the crossbow arrows engraved with runes.
He even sent people to summon the practitioners in the city.
But after a while, the black crowd approached, and his color suddenly changed.
There were probably 200,000 to 300,000 old people, women, children, and even the disabled. They were all in ragged clothes and looked like refugees.
The Taiping Sect broke through Yueling City and gathered more refugees. Some of the refugees are now here. A crowd of two to three hundred thousand people rushed towards the county like a flood during a flood. They were already about to let go.
The archer couldn't help but lower his bow and arrow.
"Fire the arrow!"
Zhang Pan shouted angrily at this moment: "Fire the arrow! Behind you are the people of the whole city, including your family members and relatives. If the demons of the Taiping Sect are allowed to enter the city, your relatives will also become one of them."
"
"Shoot the arrow! If something goes wrong, I will take full responsibility for it."
Compared with the governor, this county governor appears to be extraordinarily decisive, or can be said to be ruthless and determined.
Hearing this, the hesitant soldiers looked at the crazy refugees, gritted their teeth, and once again drew their bows and arrows. Suddenly, a wave of arrows arced across the air and fell, causing the refugees at the front to fall to the ground.
.
At the same time, the captains with cultivation level and Daoguo as well as the practitioners in the city rushed over one after another and stationed themselves at the city gate with weapons in hand. Their awe-inspiring energy condensed into a powerful force, frightening the refugees from moving forward.
The refugees stopped, and the Yellow Turban Army following the refugees also stopped. Under a military flag in the middle, a man in armor and a yellow scarf, who looked about thirty years old, saw this and immediately looked like the man behind him.
The chariot reported: "Commander Qu, the defenders have fired arrows."
"I can see it."
On the shaft of the carriage, a young man with a face as bright as jade and a rather handsome appearance showed a sneer and said, "It's exactly what I want. Come and offer sacrifices to the Iron-armored God Thunder."
It would be best if the county and city opened the city gates. Not opening the city gates would be in line with the Taiping Religion's wishes. Just in time, they can use this to incite people's hearts and coerce the refugees to attack the city. No matter how the other side responds, it will not change the outcome.
.
Killing refugees is a dead end, not killing them is also a dead end.
"Sacrifice to the Iron-Armored God Thunder."
The order was passed down from level to level, and immediately the yellow scarf warriors opened a clear space among the refugees, and ten doctors in yellow robes stood apart, holding their hands high at the same time.
The round iron balls were spinning smoothly between his hands, and the talisman patterns lit up one after another on the surface of the balls.
Immediately——
"Zi la!"
The lightning flashed, and the iron ball was stirred up by the thunder method, flying towards the city wall with a dazzling light, while the ten doctors fell down powerlessly at the same time.
Immediately, another wave of arrows was shot out from the city wall, many of which were true energy and magic. The arrows and energy hit individual iron balls. Some were scattered by the lightning, and some...
"Boom!"
There was a thunderbolt in the sky, the iron ball exploded with a bang, and thunder and fire exploded. In an instant, the city wall burst into flames, and limbs flew across the city.
There were also spheres falling on the city wall, and a gap was immediately opened. The city wall reinforced with the power of earth could not withstand the bombardment of this armored god's thunder, and the entire city wall was shaking.
At the same time, the sound of military bugles came from outside the city, and the yellow scarf warriors marched forward in formation. The commander Qu raised his voice and shouted: "The dog officer slaughtered innocent people and cut off our way of life. It is better to go into the city and kill the dog officer."
, grab food.”
His words were crude but not crude. His handsome shouting immediately inspired the refugees’ survival mentality.
People don't have much sense when they are extremely hungry. This group of refugees had been driven crazy after traveling a long distance. Now that they heard the shouts, they didn't think much about it and just followed the instinct of survival and rushed forward.
Even if someone can stay sane, they can't stop the crowd.
Naturally, the defenders on the city wall resisted desperately, and the county guard Zhang Pan even used his divine domain to forcibly cover the city wall with a light curtain, stabilizing the city wall while suppressing the refugees and the Yellow Turban warriors at the rear.
Relying on the city wall and the divine domain, the defenders held firm and continued to harvest lives. However, as a violent starlight streaked through the sky and hit the light curtain, the entire city wall began to shake violently.
"This is... a divine general! Fifth grade!"
Zhang Pan felt that his divine realm was about to collapse at the first touch, and couldn't help but exclaim.
At the same time, Qu Shuai, the Taiping Cult leader wearing bright yellow armor, rushed out of the starlight and covered Zhang Pan's head with his palm.
"The person who will kill you is Skyburst Star Lou Yunqing."
After the words fell, his head was shattered, and Lou Yunqing smashed Zhang Pantianling with one palm. The red and white stuff shot out and sprinkled on the armor, creating a fierce aura.
And Lou Yunqing swept through the city wall like a whirlwind, blood and flesh flying everywhere in his path, and he slaughtered the defenders in a short time.
"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky must stand."
He stood on the dilapidated city wall and shouted downwards, arousing a frenzied response.
"The sky is dead, and the yellow sky must stand."
A large number of refugees shouted slogans, and together with the yellow scarf warriors, they broke open the city gate and swarmed into the city.
