Regarding Ye Shaonan, it was difficult for Chu Xiu to describe him.
Although he was born in the largest sect of the Demonic Path, and he single-handedly cultivated the Moon Worship Sect to its current peak level, in fact, Ye Shaonan did not have much of the behavior of a member of the Demonic Path. Anyway, in Chu Xiu's opinion
, Ye Shaonan is not ruthless enough, nor despicable enough.
Of course, he will not be indecisive when doing things, and he is kind to a woman.
In terms of actions, he has always acted as the leader of the Moon Worship Cult and implemented various plans with absolute rationality.
But in terms of life, he is not a leader or a demon. If Chu Xiu is forced to say it, Ye Shaonan should be just a warrior, a simple warrior, or at his level, he is already a well-deserved strong man.
Ye Shaonan is not a martial arts fanatic, but he is tireless in the pursuit of power. Because of this, he was able to successfully practice the Heaven-Mending Heart Sutra and became the number one demon in the world.
It is very difficult to become an opponent with such a person, because the opponent has no weaknesses. Unless you can completely defeat the opponent in terms of strength, you will not be able to defeat the opponent.
But it is much easier to become an ally with such a person, because as long as you don't play tricks and put the interests of all parties clearly, Ye Shaonan will naturally make the choice that is most suitable for the Moon Worship Cult.
Chu Xiu had already expected it before coming to Xichu. As long as he told everything clearly, with Ye Shaonan's character, he should naturally know how to choose.
But then Ye Shaonan said again: "The Moon Worshiping Church takes action, but the Moon Worshiping Church will not come out of Xi Chu."
Xiang Chong's face couldn't help but change when he heard this. What's the point of not leaving Xi Chu? What's the difference between agreeing like this and not agreeing?
But then Ye Shaonan said: "Similarly, none of the righteous sects in the land of Western Chu will leave Western Chu."
Chu Xiu nodded and said: "It is enough for the Moon Worshiping Sect to do this. I am very grateful."
Xiang Chong touched his head and realized what Ye Shaonan meant.
There are many righteous sects in the land of Western Chu. The Tianshi Mansion alone is the biggest threat, and there are also Zuowang Jianlu and Fengyun Sword Tomb.
Although the Chunyang Dao Sect and the Zhenwu Sect were the instigators this time, they were doing it in the name of killing evil spirits. There was no guarantee that other righteous sects would not take action. This was also the reason why Chu Xiu had previously forced the Daguangming Temple to make a commitment.
As long as the Moon Worshiping Sect can stop the righteous martial arts forces in the land of Western Chu this time, it will already be a great help to Chu Xiu.
Chu Xiu then said again: "By the way, I came to Xichu this time not only to ask the Moon Worshiping Sect to take action, but also to contact the royal family of Xichu.
I also want to inquire about the relationship between the Western Chu royal family and the Moon Worshiping Sect, and which side will the other side take?"
The two sides have decided to join forces at this time, and Donghuang Taiyi and the high priest of the Moon Worship Sect have a better attitude towards Chu Xiu and Chu Xiu.
Hearing this, Donghuangtai said: "The royal family of Western Chu? This is somewhat uncertain.
You also know the situation in the land of Western Chu. The world is in chaos and the power of the imperial court is very weak. It has even become so weak that the court is no longer as effective as us, the powerful factions in the world, and even often asks for help from us.
Head, help handle some Jianghu affairs.
Therefore, the relationship between the Xichu royal family and the Xichu Jianghu is actually not that tense. It should be said that they have a good relationship with everyone.
The Qin Tian Jian of the Western Chu royal family is a Taoist priest of the Tianshi Mansion. Every year, the emperor will go to the Tianshi Mansion to offer sacrifices to heaven and pray for blessings. If it were not for the fear of offending my Moon Worship Sect, I guess the Western Chu royal family would be willing to let the Tianshi Mansion become the state religion.
But similarly, the people of my Moon Worshiping Sect also have some privileges in the land of Western Chu, and many of the imperial doctors in the palace are my disciples of the Moon Worshiping Sect."
Chu Xiu looked a little strange and said: "A disciple of the Yue Worshiping Sect becomes an imperial doctor?"
The high priest of the Moon Worship Sect on the side laughed and said: "Master Chu, don't let a leaf blind your eyes. You need to know that Gu can kill people, and it can also save people.
The path of life and death lies in your heart, whether to kill or save others, it all depends on how you want to use it."
Donghuang Taiyi waved his hand disdainfully and said, "Okay, stop talking about your useless theories."
After scolding the high priest, Donghuang Taiyi turned to Chu Xiu and said, "Master Chu, if you want to go to the Western Chu royal family, I can go with you.
The Western Chu royal family will still sell me to worship the Moon Cult to save face, but of course it depends on you how to discuss it specifically."
Chu Xiu nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble Mr. Donghuang Taiyi."
After the discussion, Chu Xiu and the others did not delay and followed Donghuang Taiyi directly to Jiangdu City, the capital of Western Chu.
As the weakest of the Three Kingdoms at that time, Jiangdu City was indeed inferior to Daliang City in the Eastern Qi Dynasty and Yanjing City in the Northern Yan Dynasty.
Although Jiangdu City is also a capital city, it is not much worse, but compared with the above two, it is much smaller.
Donghuang Taiyi said that he had some respect in the Western Chu royal family, but this was really not a boast.
He had just entered the city when someone reported the news. Before Chu Xiu and others reached the imperial city, a short and fat old man in brocade clothes came over with a smile and said: "His Majesty Donghuang Taiyi"
But you haven’t been to Jiangdu City for a long time. Why do you have time to come here today?
Now that you're here, don't leave in a hurry. It happened that my men recently caught a colorful golden pheasant in Shiwanda Mountain, which is definitely a delicacy. I'll have someone add some mushrooms to stew it later, and let's have a good meal.
"
This short and fat old man looked funny, but Chu Xiu could sense that he was also in the Real Fire God Refining Realm.
Of course, if you don't have the realm of true fire god refining, you wouldn't dare to make friends with Donghuang Taiyi here and call him brother.
At this time, the short and fat old man saw Chu Xiu, and his eyes suddenly narrowed subconsciously. He obviously recognized who Chu Xiu was, but he said: "Who are these two?"
Donghuang Taiyi said calmly: "Haven't you heard of Master Chu Xiuchu, who is now the number one young person in our demonic lineage, the master of Zhenwu Hall, and in charge of Beiyan Jianghu?
As for the other one, he is the head of the royal enshrinement hall of Beiyan, and he is also the Prince of Zhenbei, Prince Xiang Chongxiang."
Donghuang Taiyi pointed at the short and fat old man again and said: "This is the general of the Langya Army of Western Chu, the 'Jade Faced Flying Dragon' Yu Wenfu."
Upon hearing this name, Chu Xiu and Xiang Chong's expressions became extremely strange.
They know that the Langya Army is the strongest army in the Western Chu military, equivalent to the level of the Fifth Army of Beiyan Zhenguo. Of course, there are five Zhenguo Five Armies, while Western Chu has only one Langya Army.
But who would have thought that this seemingly funny, pudgy old man was actually the general of the Langya Army. This image is too bad, right?
The most important thing is that the other party's nickname is Jade-Faced Flying Dragon, which is very funny.
Feilong is fine, but what if the opponent is very fast? After all, size does not mean speed.
But what the hell is Jade Noodles? Can it be called Jade Noodles even if it looks like this?
Yu Wenfu didn't pay attention to the looks of Chu Xiu and Xiang Chong at this time. He just rubbed his hands in embarrassment and said, "Do you want to see His Majesty?"
Donghuang Taiyi rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't see your Majesty, why are we coming all the way to Jiangdu City?"
Yu Wenfu laughed and said: "Your Majesty has been a little tired recently and has been in some inconveniences recently.
How about this, you all go and stay at my house for one night, and I will take care of you. I will give you a briefing tomorrow before going to see His Majesty."
At this time, Donghuang Taiyi's eyes suddenly darkened: "Yu Wenfu, you and I are old friends. It's okay for you to fool others, but now you still want to fool me?
Don't play those tricks with me, what on earth is Your Majesty doing?"
Yu Wenfu slapped his thigh and said with a wry smile: "Don't vent your anger on me, I am forced to do nothing.
At the moment, everyone in the Tianshi Mansion, the Forgetting Sword Cottage and the Fengyun Sword Tomb are all here. If you go in again, are you going to start a fight? I can only send you away first."
Hearing what Yu Wenfu said, Chu Xiu and Xiang Chong looked at each other, and their hearts sank.
There are many smart people in this world, and what they can think of can be thought of by others.
Tianshi Mansion and other forces are in Western Chu. Even if they thought of it late, they would be the first to get there at this time.
Donghuang Taiyi sneered: "Oh? They're all here, it's lively enough, how about taking one of us with you?"
Brother Yuwen, don’t worry, we will give you Xichu some face, but we will do it in the imperial city."
Hearing what Donghuang Taiyi said, Yu Wenfu had no choice but to lead them into the imperial city.
Xi Chu didn't want to offend the people of the righteous way, and they naturally didn't want to offend the people of the evil way either.
At this time, in the palace hall, a middle-aged man wearing a dragon robe was sitting at the top, and three people were sitting below.
One of them was Senior Qing from the Tianshi Mansion, and Xuan Longzi was standing beside him.
In fact, Tianshi Mansion did not want to get involved in this matter this time, but the noise on Dong Qi's side was getting louder and louder. Tianshi Mansion was one of the three great sects, and the other two had already defeated them.
It would not be good if there was no movement at all from the Demon Guard's banner and their Tianshi Mansion.
The other two people were Yan Zhi from Fengyun Sword Tomb and Shen Baochen from Zuowang Sword Cottage.
The purpose of their coming here is very simple, they just want to test the attitude of the Western Chu royal family.
If the Western Chu court stays with them in the right way, they will naturally become even more powerful.
But on the other hand, if the Western Chu court has the intention to be with the devil, then they must kill this idea as soon as possible.
The Emperor of Western Chu, Meng Yunsheng, was a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance. He did not look like an emperor, but rather had a bookish air.
Among the emperors of the Three Kingdoms at the time, Meng Yunsheng was definitely not the most mediocre. He also had the same ambitions as Xiang Long.
It's just a pity that Beiyan still has some foundation at least, and with the national strength of their Western Chu state, no matter how ambitious Meng Yunsheng is, no matter how strong his ability is, he is unable to make a comeback given his innate conditions.
Now that we can ensure the inheritance of the Western Chu Dynasty, we are already protected by our ancestors.
