Chapter 458: Troubles arose, and the Yu family invited
The meeting dispersed.
All the ministers are worried and thinking a lot, not knowing what surprises will happen in the future.
When an official returned home, his concubine came forward to take off his official uniform, wipe his face, wash his feet, pour tea, and express condolences. After cleaning up, the official waved several people away and walked into the study.
The study room is very large, filled with classics of the saints, dazzling and shining.
But he ignored everything, walked to the southeast corner, and gently turned the wings of the crane-top incense burner.
After several regular rotations back and forth, the bookshelf in the east corner sank silently into the wall, revealing a dark hole on the ground.
Officials walked down the stairs, and along the way there were oil lamps that burned spontaneously without wind, illuminating their future.
After walking about dozens of steps, a white light appeared in front of him, surrounded by copper and iron walls. It was already a dead end.
Only the white light is like a portal created by the ripples of a water curtain.
Black official boots stepped into the portal, causing ripples to ripple in circles. The situation in front of them suddenly changed, and a new world appeared.
There is a bright sun, the moon is hidden in the sky, the wind is blowing, the grass is moving, and the trees are shaded.
After arriving here, this official seemed to have been relieved of a heavy burden, his tense shoulders relaxed, and his steps were no longer heavy and became much more relaxed.
He walked to a courtyard, sat down on a plum blossom stone chair, and made himself a pot of fragrant tea.
When the aroma of tea overflowed, the official waved gently.
The world trembled slightly, as if something was approaching quickly, stirring up fierce air waves.
Snap!
What fell into the hands of the official was a jade ghost face and a token only the size of a palm.
He skillfully put on the Jasper Ghost Mask, and then threw the token into the air in front of him.
The token swelled in the wind and soon became two to three feet in size. Lines of text appeared in the middle, and occasionally a portrait floated by.
The most eye-catching one is the announcement at the top.
Officials had read this announcement long before the court meeting.
But this is not the time.
What was originally thought to be a simple matter has now become extremely difficult. Looking at it again, the officials felt a trace of impatience, a trace of boredom, and a trace of fear.
Tick tock!
There was a sound like water droplets falling into the lake, and a hazy mist rose from the surface of the token.
This black cloud and mist twisted in the sky, gradually forming a clear figure.
He also wears the same ghost face.
However, the material and color are different from the ordinary jasper ghost face. It is made of red blood jade, with the whole body red, and a layer of gold foil inlaid on the eyes and the bridge of the nose.
Upon seeing this, the official immediately stood up and saluted: "Alliance leader!"
"I already know about the meeting, what do you think?"
"Confronting the imperial court head-on... is a sure way to die and is not advisable! You must find another way!"
"No one wants to fight against the imperial court, but now that it has happened, we still have to find a way to solve it."
"Leader, I listen to what the left and right ministers mean... It seems that they want to punish this alliance. The main purpose should be to destroy the evil cult.
I might as well go with the flow and uproot one or more of the three major cults, so as to have an explanation."
The leader of the Tiandao Alliance wearing the red jade ghost mask hesitated for a moment and said softly: "There is something wrong with this matter.
The leaders of the Baxia Sect, the Tianlu Sect, and the Hongyan Sect have all joined our alliance earlier. They made friends as soon as they joined the alliance, which is a bit like burning bridges."
This official had obviously just learned of the news that the three Supreme Leaders had joined the Tiandao Alliance, so he was a little horrified.
His eyes became sharp, he looked the leader up and down, and his tone also changed.
"Although there are many court officials in the Tiandao Alliance, if the leader of the alliance dances with the evil cult, I am afraid they will not agree.
To overthrow the imperial court is to overthrow ourselves.
You should know...this is impossible!"
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis, they are they and a cult is a cult. I have my own sense of discretion and will not mix them up."
The leader of the Tiandao Alliance directly addressed this person's identity, which seemed to imply a hint of threat.
The Marquis did not buy it: "Humph, Black Stone, the troubles caused by Zhishan and others, let them solve it by themselves, I will not interfere anymore!
If it doesn't work, just hand over one of them.
Compared with the survival of the Tiandao Alliance...the alliance leader should know which is more important."
"Survival or death?"
"Haha~"
"We, the Tiandao League, have gone through the baptism of years and seen the vicissitudes of life. Daqian cannot destroy the Tiandao League, and Daxia cannot destroy the Tiandao League.
Now——
Dashang can’t do the same!
Since the Marquis is unwilling to contribute, I will not waste any words, but since you have chosen to stand by and watch, it is best to continue to watch and not make any unwise moves."
After speaking, the red jade ghost face turned into a black cloud and returned to the token.
The Ghost Faced Marquis took back the token and threw it into the void like trash.
"Hmph, the merchants can't destroy the Tiandao Alliance? They are simply ignorant!"
……
"Don't know what's good or bad!"
Peng~
On the tall throne, the leader of the Tiandao Alliance hammered the armrest hard, causing smoke and dust to fly everywhere.
Under the throne.
There are six people with jasper ghost faces on both sides.
The jade-faced rat saw him losing his composure and asked curiously: "Leader, what is this..."
The leader of the Tiandao Alliance gently touched the red ghost face on his face and waved his hand casually: "After all, the officials of the imperial court are not our own.
They have been in high positions for so long that they really think they are the masters of the world.
Little did I know.
There are plenty of people in this world who can deal with them."
The six people looked at each other, each understanding, knowing that the leader must have been frustrated by other members.
This incident was originally caused by them, so they inevitably feel a little guilty and uneasy.
Heishi stood up and said: "Alliance leader, calm down, my subordinates didn't expect... that Tie Tang was so capable that he could bring a trivial matter to the court."
"Heishi, this matter has already attracted the attention of the left prime minister, and the right prime minister has personally come forward, plus that vicious dog Shang Yue, no one can tell you the truth openly.
Moreover, the left prime minister actually asked King Jiang Ren to deal with you and others. I am afraid that I am also powerless.
Maybe.
You can ask the person behind you if there is any solution, but if necessary, the alliance will do its best to help."
"This..."
Black Stone was in a dilemma for a while.
He obviously does not want to involve the Tiandao Alliance and the Yu family.
But now things have reached a point where it is difficult to deal with. If there is not a strong enough force to come forward, it will be difficult to settle things.
This force cannot be a dark existence like the Tiandao Alliance and the three major cults. It needs to be an existence that can compete with the court on the bright side.
There are obviously not many such forces.
And the Yu family.
This is one of them!
"I'll give it a try..." Heishi felt a little lack of confidence, so he left the place bravely.
……
What happened at the court meeting has not yet reached Qingshui City, so Tie Tang naturally has no way of knowing.
At this time, he was sitting in the courtyard of Tiefu, with a large number of files and ancient books on the table in his hands. Fang Lexian and Fang Pengyi were also sitting separately.
These information are all related to one name, and were collected by Tie Tang from various places.
"Yu Linglong... Commander Tie, if your name is correct, then I advise you to find a way to reconcile with her."
Tie Tang looked through the classics in his hand and responded: "It's Yu Linglong, the name is definitely correct, but I'm not sure if it's Piaomiao Fairy.
If seniors know about her deeds, you might as well choose something to talk about."
After coming out of the Fengshen Realm, Tie Tang firmly remembered the name that Thirteenth Lang of Nanhai said when he left.
Once you have an accurate name, it will undoubtedly be a hundred times easier to investigate the corresponding information.
He is currently checking relevant information carefully.
Fang Pengyi thought for a while, then gently touched the jade countertop with his index finger, attracting Tie Tang's gaze.
"I don't know much, but I can tell you...she is indeed still alive, and her cultivation has already reached an incredible level.
If you insist on going against her, you will definitely not survive for long.
She is not something you can compete with.
In this way, I can persuade the clan leader to come forward in the name of the Fang family to resolve the conflict between you."
Tie Tang raised his eyebrows slightly, he was not a ungrateful person.
Even Fang Pengyi, who was born in the Fang family and has reached the level of Immortal God and Taoism, is so afraid of Yu Linglong.
There must be a reason for this.
"Senior, I was attacked and killed this time. You also witnessed it. Although I am not sure who is behind it now, it is probably related to her.
She tried to kill me many times and asked me to reconcile with her... It was difficult for Tie to do it."
Fang Pengyi said quickly: "I think there must be some misunderstanding here. If she really wanted to kill you, you would be dead by now.
For her... you have definitely not reached the point where death is inevitable, and there is still room for negotiation."
"She has already taken action. Putting aside this time, there has been at least one attempt before. I am sure it was the people she sent."
"No, no, no... you don't know the key here." Fang Pengyi waved his hands repeatedly.
"She won't live long. Fairy Piaomiao is burdened with the blood curse of the Qilin clan. It is a miracle among miracles that she can persist until now.
For her now, there is no one or anything in the world that can make her care.
If she really wants to kill you, she can do it herself. Do you think you can avoid her attack?
And even if everyone knew about it afterwards, no one would dare to settle the matter with her.
Even the imperial court wouldn’t dare!
Do you know that your death was in vain?"
Tie Tang really doesn't know this secret. If what Fang Pengyi said is true, then Yu Linglong is indeed a very terrible enemy.
A dying person, with a huge family background that is rare in the world, and himself the supreme overlord among the gods, such a person can already be a nearly invincible existence.
Seeing him deep in thought, Fang Pengyi struck while the iron was hot: "I don't know what the grudges are between you, but the age gap between you is so long that there shouldn't be any intersection at all. It's probably a misunderstanding.
Why not... find a chance to explain it face to face?"
These words indeed hit Tie Tang’s point.
He actually knows very little about the story between the Thirteenth Lang of the South China Sea and Yu Linglong. Except for what he saw in the illusion of the tomb, the rest can be said to be his own guesses.
What the truth is...he doesn't know.
After all, that era was tens of thousands of years ago, and even verification itself was a very difficult task.
Thought for a long time.
Before Tie Tang could make a decision, he saw Lu Zhengqing walking in with two official documents in a hurry.
"Sir, the decree of the Prime Minister of the Left came from the court, as well as the documents of the Palace Master. The Palace Master seems to be very angry. Did your Excellency do something else?"
Tie Tang looked overjoyed. He didn't expect to receive a reply so quickly. He took the two documents and quickly flipped through them. He was also a little shocked by what he saw. He secretly wondered if he had gone too far this time.
The leftist prime minister's decree was okay, it was all in official terms, and it mainly asked officials from all over the country to do their best to arrest people related to the cult and hand them over to the Supervisory Hall for handling.
In addition, it is also necessary to cooperate with King Jiang Yong's deployment and allocate a certain amount of manpower and material resources to assist the court in clearing up the cult.
Feng Yi's clerk, on the other hand, scolded Tie Tang first and said that he had to shoulder a lot of blame and would crush someone to death if he was not careful.
The front was fine, Tie Tang looked over as if he was having fun.
But in the second half... he was so horrified that his scalp felt numb.
"You brat, what faction do you belong to? On the left, you are friends with the Great Leiyin Temple, on the right, you are friends with Taiyi, the front is the Taibao, and the back is the Supervisory Hall. You are surrounded by the Fang family, and you are also the enemy of the Yu family.
You are also very close to Yao'er, but do you know her identity?
She is Wu Mu’s disciple!
Wu Mu is the true successor of King Jiang Ren!
I'm afraid you don't know. Let me tell you in advance. If the Human King troubles you, I'm afraid I will give you a knife.
Now, even if you break it into eighteen yuan, I'm afraid it won't be enough to give evenly to these people.
This time, for Yao'er's sake, I gave you a seal. I didn't expect that things would become such a big deal.
I can't bear it anymore. I really can't bear it anymore. How about the master of the palace do it for you, and I can become the county governor.
There will be a lot of bloodshed during this period, please let Yaoer come back.
I finally figured it out, it’s not good for her to follow you!
You stay in Qingshui City obediently and don't step out of the city gate, let alone write any messy letters to the Holy City. Anyway, I will intercept them if you write them.
That’s it, take care of yourself!”
After reading Feng Yi's document, Tie Tang took a breath, but he didn't expect that Wu Mu was actually the disciple of the human king Jiang Yong.
He was speechless when he thought about the previous rumors between the Human King and the cult.
Because after the real calculation...
It seems that he has some relationship with the cult?
The premise is that Jiang Yong is indeed related to Baxiajiao.
"Hiss~ This world is really not that big. After a while, even I became a member of a cult, right?"
Although things were a bit complicated, many of them were within Tie Tang's expectation.
In any case, it is definitely good news that the imperial court is willing to vigorously suppress the cult, and his letter was not written in vain.
After he calmed down, Fang Pengyi's voice came to his ears again.
"Magistrate Iron, what do you think?"
"Piaomiao Fairy is definitely a dangerous person. To be honest, even I don't dare to provoke her. It's better to clear up the grievances between you and her as soon as possible."
Tie Tang pondered for a moment and slowly shook his head: "Thank you, senior, for your kindness, but let me investigate and get to know this person well, and then we can discuss it."
"Then you have to be quick!"
As soon as Fang Pengyi finished speaking, he suddenly stood up, flew into the sky, and stared in disbelief at a stream of light approaching at great speed in the distance.
And Tie Tang, who was in charge of the city defense formation, also sensed that extremely powerful immortals were coming.
He turned his palm, and a miniature Qingshui Formation appeared in his hand, showing that a large red dot had entered the city.
Next breath.
Whoosh!
A figure fell in the center of the courtyard.
"Fang came here uninvited. I hope Sheriff Tie will forgive me!"
Tie Tang's expression changed again and again. He originally activated the power of the formation, but stopped again after hearing the person calling himself Fang.
As expected.
Fang Pengyi and Fang Lexian both stepped forward quickly and bowed deeply.
"Welcome ancestor!"
"Welcome ancestor!"
The visitor kindly lifted the two of them up, walked slowly to Tie Tang, and looked them up and down.
"It is true that a hero emerges from his youth, and the demeanor of Governor Iron is something Fang has only seen in his life. He is worthy of being ranked second on the life and death list."
Tie Tang held the etiquette of the younger generation in his hand and did not care about it.
"Thank you for your support, senior, and forgive Tie for being ignorant. I don't know that senior is..."
This person is obviously a very powerful person in the Fang family, because his cultivation is already a terrifying leader, with the same strength as Xiang Tian and Xu Jinghui, the two supervisors in the house.
Five Realms of Immortals and Gods.
Immortal, Hedao, Zhangdao, God Emperor, Immortal Emperor.
Except for the God Emperor and the Immortal Emperor whose meaning is difficult to understand and whose superiority is difficult to distinguish, the mysterious realm of the Immortal Realm is truly frightening, and a large number of those walking around in the world are those who hold the Tao.
Compared with the immortal gods in the Immortal Realm and the Hedao Realm, the strength of the Taoist masters has undergone earth-shaking changes, and is much stronger than the former two.
This kind of person.
Also known as the ‘Fairy Overlord’!
"I, Fang Xinghai, have taken the liberty to come here today. I really have something important to do. I dare to ask Governor Tie to rush to the Holy Capital and his party."
Hmm?
Going to the Holy City?
As soon as Fang Xinghai said these words, not to mention Tie Tang, even Fang Pengyi and Fang Lexian had weird expressions on their faces.
Fang Lexian was worried about Tie Tang's safety and asked before he could speak: "Ancestor, what happened?"
"Actually, it's nothing. It was the Yu family who invited me, the Fang family, to come forward and invite Governor Iron to go to the Holy Capital to resolve some misunderstandings in the past."
Tie Tang frowned, and for a while he couldn't figure out the cause and effect.
He had just declined Fang Pengyi's invitation, and then the more powerful Fang family members came, and it was the Yu family who invited him.
What do you think? Why is it wrong?
But he couldn't notice what was wrong.
As if sensing Tie Tang's worry, Fang Xinghai patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Sheriff Tie, our family will be the notary for this matter, and no one will take action against you.
Moreover, the Holy Capital is at the feet of the Human Emperor, where all the civil and military officials of the dynasty live, and there are numerous overlords. No one will take action there, so there is no need to worry about safety."
Tie Tang only asked a question, which made the air around him freeze.
"If we don't get along, Yu Linglong wants to kill me personally. Can anyone stop her?"
