Summoning the Peak of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 2937: Enrochi VS Susanoo

Chapter 2933: Enrochi VS Susanoo

Qin Zheng's luck with women is considered good among all the heroes. After all, including the sisters Xue Ji and Piao Xu, he has one wife and four concubines. The number may not be large, but the quality is absolutely top-notch, and none of them are just pretty faces.

However, political marriage is not entirely without disadvantages.

If the families of Qin Zheng's wives and concubines commit crimes in the future, in the eyes of outsiders, it is very likely that he condoned them, so he naturally has to take precautions in advance.

Qin Zheng married one wife and four concubines, who were married into the Gongsun, Long, Yang, and Liusheng families. The first three were large families, especially the Yang family, which had three dukes for four generations. The Gongsun family and the Long family also had founding fathers. Even if they really committed a crime, it was impossible for them to implicate Qin Zheng, so the Liusheng family was the one that needed to be focused on.

The Yagyu family is naturally a big family in Yingzhou, with a prominent status and decent foundation, but it is nothing in the Central Plains, even though there are even three living masters in the family.

Qin Zheng didn't want to see someone from the Yagyu family abduct a woman, and then the family members file a complaint with the emperor in the capital, implicating his son-in-law as well. This would be both embarrassing and upsetting, so he gave Yagyu Tajima no Kami a few subtle reminders, asking him to manage the Yagyu family well and not cause trouble for them.

Yagyu Tajima no Kami experienced the fall of Japan, the decline of the Yagyu family, and their revival after surrendering to Qin. He is obviously an old fox who knows how to advance and retreat.

After hearing the meaning of Qin Zheng's words, Yagyu Tajima no Kami was not angry, but was overjoyed. After all, this showed that Qin Zheng really began to treat him as his own, otherwise he would not have given him any advice in this regard.

In fact, Yagyu Tajima no Kami also knew that although Qin Zheng called him father-in-law, if he really relied on this and dared to regard himself as Qin Zheng's father-in-law, someone from Heibingtai would probably come to warn him before tomorrow, and Qin Zheng would probably look down on the Yagyu family because of this.

The key to the Yagyu family's complete integration into the Qin Dynasty has been obtained by sending their daughter, but if they want to gain dignity and not be looked down upon, they still have to rely on the abilities of the men in the Yagyu family.

"Sir, your investigation is in the right direction. I followed your orders and thoroughly investigated all the families related to the Kamo family. It turned out that there were indeed other people behind Kamo Nakayuki and Ashiya Michimitsu."

Hearing what Yagyu Tajima said, Qin Zheng immediately sneered and said, "Sure enough, if there was only one great master, how could those people have the confidence to rebel against our Great Qin? They are not stupid.

If I am not mistaken, the person behind Kamo Nakayuki and Ashiya Michimitsu is the little villain known as the founder of Onmyoji?"

The intelligence department of the Qin Dynasty is not there to do nothing, and Yingzhou is only this small. Although the relationships between the major families are complicated, as long as you are willing to invest time and energy, you can still find out.

Qin Zheng would naturally not notice a strong man like Yi Xiaojiao who could stir up the situation under normal circumstances, but when the war broke out and the enemy was in the dark and we were in the light, he would include him in the list of suspects even without evidence.

"Uh... yes, it's the little horn."

Yagyu Tajima no Kami smiled bitterly. He had spent a lot of time and energy, and even risked being exposed, and had gone through untold hardships to find Yi Xiaojiao. As a result, Qin Zheng had already suspected Yi Xiaojiao just by deduction.

This also made Yagyu Tajima no Kami feel that he and his men had put in so much effort, but Qin Zheng came up with it effortlessly, so he had no sense of accomplishment.

"But there may be someone behind Yi Xiaojiao, and this person may be stronger than Yi Xiaojiao."

After hearing this, Qin Zheng suddenly looked solemn and realized the seriousness of the problem. After all, if he is stronger than Yi Xiaojiao, he must be a late grandmaster or even a peak grandmaster.

"Sure enough, the rebellion in Yingzhou this time is very deep and far from being so easy to resolve."

Qin Zheng couldn't help but look troubled. Now he only hoped that Abe Haruaki and domestic support would arrive soon, because even if he could win on the battlefield, he would have no ability to solve the problem outside the battlefield.

"Have you found out who it is?" Qin Zheng asked, rubbing his temple.

"No, this person has never used his real name in his actions. He has always used a code name. Moreover, our investigation has already alerted the enemy. It may be more difficult to investigate in the future."

"So what's his code name?"

"Indra."

Hearing this, Qin Zheng was startled at first, then sneered: "Haha, this person has already found a way to die. Did you find any important information?"

"The skills of Emperor Shitian have traces of the Central Plains. He is likely to be from the Central Plains and is still in contact with the Central Plains. In addition, Enryuchi is also in contact with Emperor Shitian. He is likely to be sent by Emperor Shitian to help Toyotomi Hideyoshi."

"What? Emperor Shitian is from Central Plains? And Enryuchi is actually Emperor Shitian's man?"

Qin Zheng couldn't help but show surprise when he heard this. After all, if Emperor Shitian came from the Central Plains, the situation would be even more serious.

The Central Plains is the base camp of the Qin Dynasty. If even the Qin Dynasty has no information about Emperor Shitian, then it is very likely that this Emperor Shitian came from the Hundred Schools, because only the Hundred Schools can cultivate such a person, and he deliberately hides himself, otherwise there would be no news at all.

As for Yuan Luzhi? This person appeared after the outbreak of the Yingzhou War. There was no trace of him before that. It was as if he jumped out of a stone road. After he appeared, he directly joined Toyotomi Hideyoshi's rebels.

If it weren't for Enrochi on the battlefield, helping Toyotomi Hideyoshi fight against the Qin army, Toyotomi Hideyoshi would have been strangled by Wang Jian and Susanoo long ago.

Enryuchi was a bit weird. He was not very strong at the beginning. In his first battle, he defeated Ren Bi with Kibu 103, Kamiyama Kenshin with Kibu 104 (+3), and Meng Yi with Kibu 104 (+1). However, he was eventually defeated by these three people. His strength was just that of a strong beginner-level war god.

But the second time Enron went out to fight, he tied with the middle-level God of War Oyama Tsukimi. His strength improved so fast that generals below the level of God of War, such as Ren Bi, Kamiyama Kenshin, and Meng Yi, did not dare to fight him alone. As the battle of Yingzhou progressed, Enron's strength became stronger and stronger. Now, even Oyama Tsukimi was defeated after fighting him for 230 rounds. If Wang Jian had not been cautious enough and Meng Yi and other generals had not risked their lives to save him, Oyama Tsukimi would probably have died in Enron's hands.

The reason why Susanoo, the strongest warrior in Yingzhou, did not participate in the battle was because Susanoo led his army to attack Shikoku at that time and was not in Honshu. However, it was unexpected that his absence gave Enryuchi a chance to grow.

Wang Jian had also thought about planning a group fight to surround and kill General Tomoyuchi in one fell swoop, but Toyotomi Hideyoshi was not stupid either, and he had been on guard against this from the beginning, which made Wang Jian's plans fail several times, forcing Wang Jian to recall Susanoo in advance.

After Susanoo returned to Honshu, he soon had his first battle with Enronichi, and the result was naturally unsurprisingly that Susanoo won.

Susanoo, who was well aware of Enrochi's strength, gave it his all from the start and eventually defeated Enrochi, who had just defeated Oyamazumi, in just sixty rounds.

Although Enrochi was defeated, he was wounded but not dead, and escaped under the cover of Toyotomi Hideyoshi. On the contrary, Susanoo fell into an ambush by Toyotomi Hideyoshi due to his blind pursuit, and lost more than a thousand elite soldiers.

As Qin Zheng led the troops of the four countries to support Kyushu, the four countries broke out in rebellion, so Wang Jian urgently transferred Meng Yi, who was on the expedition to Kyushu, to support the four countries. The recovered Enrochi launched a second challenge to Susanoo.

This time, Enryuchi was still stronger than last time. Even though Susanoo gave his all from the beginning, it still took him 110 rounds to defeat him, but he was also too exhausted to pursue him.

It was also because of the existence of Tonobuyoshi that Oyama Tsuma was injured and Susanoo was dragged into Honshu and had no time to take care of other things, so Qin Zheng did not have the support of a god of war-level combat power.

When the news reached Kyushu, Qin Zheng was also very surprised. He obviously didn't expect that in such a small place as Yingzhou, there would appear a powerful general who could rival Susanoo and Yamata no Orochi, and who was still growing rapidly.

Yuan Luzhi's growth rate was too fast. From the initial strong initial level war god, after only three or four months, he was already comparable to the high-level war god. Such strength growth was obviously not normal.

But if Yuan Luzhi is connected with Emperor Shitian, and Emperor Shitian comes from the Hundred Schools, then perhaps it can be explained. After all, God knows what hidden secret methods of rapid improvement are there in the Hundred Schools?

However, although Yuan Luzhi is a difficult person, in Qin Zheng's view, the threat is not as big as Emperor Shitian and the back-up plan hidden behind Emperor Shitian, but now the situation has long been beyond his control.

All Qin Zheng could do was to stop Wang Mang on the battlefield, and outside the battlefield only Abe Haruaki came, and it was up to Abe Haruaki to deal with it.

Considering that it will take some time for his own grandmaster to arrive, and that the enemy has not only Ashiya Doman and Yakuko, but also the mysterious grandmaster Indra, and it is not even known whether there are any other backups in secret, relying only on grandmasters such as Ashina Isshin, Himura Kenshin, Abe Ariyo, Abe Yasuchika, and Yagyu Tajima no Kami cannot give Qin Zheng much sense of security, so he set his sights on Jianzhen, another wild master in Yingzhou.

Jianzhen was the spiritual leader of the Yingzhou Buddhist sect. He participated in the first Han Dynasty's diplomatic mission to Japan and was defeated by Xuanzang, who had already gone to seek Buddhist scriptures, in a discussion of Buddhism during the thirty-match duel.

Although Jianzhen participated in the fight, he did not pledge allegiance to Oda Nobunaga. He came to the Central Plains to broaden his horizons. Even after the Qin Dynasty formed a coalition to launch an invasion, he still chanted in the temple and did not take action. He was a truly enlightened monk.

Jianzhen's apparent strength was that of a half-step grandmaster, but no one had seen him fight for a long time. After the war, the Qin State left Jianzhen alone because he was indeed not very dangerous.

But the situation is different now. If we continue to ignore Jianzhen, it would be bad if he was won over by Toyotomi Hideyoshi.

Therefore, even if Qin Zheng did not want to disturb Jianzhen's meditation, in the current situation where the future was unclear, he had to force Jianzhen to stand on the side of the Qin Dynasty.

"Father-in-law, this is my handwritten letter. I ask you to go there in person and give it to Master Jianzhen."

Qin Zheng wanted to go and invite Jianzhen out of seclusion in person, but Wang Mang's army was approaching and he was unable to split himself and could not leave Jiuzhou at all.

Yagyu Tajima no Kami didn't ask any more questions. He took the letter and turned away.

Looking at the back of Yagyu Tajima-no-kami as he left, Qin Zheng's eyes were filled with solemnity. He knew that he didn't have much time left to prepare.

Not to mention the masterminds behind the scenes such as Emperor Shitian, Qin Zheng was not sure of winning just against Wang Mang who was about to lead his army. If he lost this battle, he would also be in danger of dying in battle. Therefore, before going to war with Wang Mang, he spared no effort to increase his strength.

"Oh, and there's also the Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine."

As a direct descendant of the Qin royal family, Qin Zheng naturally had the qualifications to practice the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic. However, he felt that improving his skills by replenishing yin and yang would not be conducive to his future breakthrough to the grandmaster level. After all, he had never heard of any grandmaster who became a grandmaster by replenishing yin and yang.

Ying Hao didn't care about these side effects, firstly because he had already integrated the dual skills, and secondly because his martial arts talent was already top-notch. But Qin Zheng obviously didn't have such good conditions as Ying Hao, so he only practiced his dual cultivation method but did not practice the method of replenishing yin with yang.

But the situation is different now. In this battle with Wang Mang, even Qin Zheng is at risk of dying in battle. If he dies, how can he talk about breaking through to become a grandmaster in the future?

Under the high pressure of Wang Mang, Qin Zheng decided to practice the Yellow Emperor's Internal Classic to improve his cultivation, and the candidates for dual cultivation were already ready, namely the sisters Yagyu Yukihime and Yagyu Piaoxu.

After seeing Qin Zheng's burning gaze, Xue Ji and Piao Xu obviously knew what was going to happen, and they lowered their heads shyly.

That night, one dragon and two phoenixes, Ehuang and Nvying, two lotus flowers bloomed...

After a night of dual cultivation, Qin Zheng also raised his cultivation to the peak of the early stage of the Grandmaster by absorbing the virgin essence of the two women, and was ready to meet the upcoming battle in the strongest condition.
