Too much fruit

Chapter 484 Those who go to war

By the time the master and apprentice finished their conversation and returned, Elder Kaiyang had already packed up Ling Wujue's bones, covered them with cloth and silk, and put them into the storage artifact.

The true successor of the Dinghu Sect is now missing one person.

Elder Kaiyang has regained his composure on the surface, but his tense face still shows the depression in his heart.

"Sister Tianxuan, please help me find the murderer." Elder Kaiyang looked at Tianxuan and said sincerely.

This naturally requires Tianxuan to help calculate and deduce the murderer.

"I have already calculated it," Tianxuan said. "The murderer did not leave any traces. Even the cause and effect and secrets were covered up. He hid himself very well, and I cannot account for the result."

"Demon God Cult?" Elder Kaiyang muttered in a low voice.

Basically, when it comes to being unable to account, people will think of the Demon God Cult. Due to the manipulations of a certain powerful person, it can be said that everyone in the Demon God Cult has their own secrets to hide. If you want to take advantage of what they do and where they are, you must first go through this. The level of the most powerful person.

"This shit stirrup!" Elder Kaiyang couldn't help but scold this powerful man.

Elder Kaiyang actually also doubts the Demon God Cult.

There is no way, who is the easiest person to do this, the Demon God Church, it is not without reason that the Demon God Church has become the scapegoat. Any events that cannot be investigated or accounted for can be blamed on the Demon God Sect, and even the Demon God Sect is willing to admit it.

However, there should be other mysteries behind this matter. Even if the person who took action is a member of the Demon God Sect, there may not be someone else behind it. The key is motivation.

‘And this motive came soon. ’ Jiang Li thought quietly.

Regarding Ling Wujue's death, there is actually a clue, and that is how Ling Wujue knew about Jiang Li's situation and took action against him.

‘Yun Jiuye should also be suspicious of the source of this news. He will definitely want to investigate. However, with his scheming mind, he probably wouldn't investigate it himself, but would find a way to let Elder Kaiyang do it. ’

Jiang Li had a clear understanding of the situation and was able to predict the next change.

He just needs to wait silently until Elder Kaiyang tracks down He Luo Shen, and then takes advantage of the situation to take action to eliminate He Luo Shen as his target.

At this time, two qi machines flew from the sky, and immediately two divine lights fell. The solemn and sacred aura represented the identity of the divine path, and it was still the fifth level.

Just like the Immortal Dao Fruit at the fifth level will have the magical power to soar into the clouds and mist, the Divine Dao Fruit at the fifth level also basically has the magical power to fly into the sky, and the flying characteristics are quite obvious.

The two divine lights fell on the water, revealing two burly figures. Both of them have broad faces and look like rough men, wearing brown armor and black boots. One of them holds a mixed copper demon pestle in his left hand, and the other holds a fine iron demon pestle in his right hand, one on the left and one on the right. Like a reflection in a mirror, it is quite symmetrical.

"Ren Hai (Tang He), a guest of the Prince of Shu, has met you all."

The two iron tower-like figures saluted together and said in unison: "On the order of the King of Shu, the two of us invite you to go to the palace to discuss important matters."

"It seems that the emperor can't wait any longer."

Tianxuan saw this and said lightly, "Lead the way."

Everyone flew in the air and followed the two disciples of the Shu Palace to the county town.

······

······

As a fourth-grade prince, he is responsible for guarding the water supply of Shu County. The king of Shu has such a high status that he is among the best among the kings. Even the governor of Liangzhou dare not disrespect him in the slightest.

However, the king of Shu with such a status lived in Mingde Street, which was not very lively in the county. Although the palace is majestic and has the appearance of a royal family, if one excludes the royal regulations of the mountains, corners, and double eaves and arches, the palace looks no different from an ordinary wealthy family.

Ren Hai and Tang He led Tianxuan and Jiang Li into the palace and went straight into the front hall. In the huge hall, there are two rows of square chairs, and between the chairs are small square tables with tea.

It's just that everyone here is not in the mood to drink tea at this time, and their expressions are solemn.

In the upper position, there are two Taishi chairs side by side. On one of them sits the King of Shu with a high crown and a majestic look, while the other is empty.

On the left and right, sitting in front of the fourth rank, Taoist Shenhou from Yuxu Temple and Taoist Wenxu from the Taoism Sect were prominently listed. There was also an old man in a blue robe, also sitting in the front, opposite the fourth rank. But his own realm should not have reached the fourth level.

This should be the governor of Liangzhou.

Jiang Li also saw Zhang Daoyi and the Yuxuguan disciple who wanted to subdue the demon. They were all sitting at the bottom.

Apart from Taiping Sect and Kunxu Immortal Palace, only the Dragon Slaying Taoist from Yuxu Temple did not appear.

After Ren and Tang led the way, they took the initiative to go to the hall door and stood on the left and right, like two door gods. The two elders went to sit on the empty square chairs in front of them. As Elder Tianpeng walked, his figure shrank, and in a blink of an eye he became taller than a normal person, and his face with curly beard actually looked a little more elegant.

Yun Jiuye also sat down on a square chair near the front. He has entered the fifth rank, and he is still the true successor of the head. In terms of status, he is close to the fourth rank, and the position vacated for him is ahead of Zhang Daoyi and others.

Under the cloudy night, there was still an empty chair, which should have been prepared for Jiang Li.

However, Tianxuan just glanced at it and said: "Disciple, you sit in the front. You are the leader of the Jiang family, and you are ranked among the three nobles. You will go to war later, so you should be at the forefront."

As soon as these words came out, the eyes of everyone present fluctuated.

He bluntly asked Jiang Li to fight because he believed that Jiang Li's strength was still higher than that of Yun Jiuye.

When it comes to "Lord of the Jiang Family", it means that the King of Shu and the Governor of Liangzhou must endorse this and support Jiang Li in getting the treatment that the head of the Jiang Family deserves, such as the position of the Three Dukes and the three-piece set of powerful ministers.

This point had been brought up before in the capital of the gods, but was temporarily shelved by the clan and a group of courtiers. Now it was brought up again. It was obvious that Tianxuan thought that the time had come and it was time to push Jiang Li forward.

The governor of Liangzhou looked serious but said nothing. The King of Shu pondered for a while, looked at Jiang Li and said, "What does the Gongsun family master mean, that Young Master Jiang has been promoted to the fifth rank?"

Although the witnesses had already made some guesses when Jiang Li broke through the disaster, they still felt a little unsure after actually seeing it.

too fast.

Yun Jiuye will be the first among his peers to be promoted because he has Tianjun Gongsunqi as his master, and he has been cultivating since he was a child, which has already laid the foundation. Although he only started to enter the ninth level when he was a teenager, he had laid the foundation for ten years before that. What does Jiang Li have?

Although after he became a disciple of Tianxuan, he was treated as well as anyone else, but before that, he relied entirely on listening to lectures given by the elders of the outer sect and studying on his own.

Such a speed of improvement is so astonishing that one can't help but wonder whether Jiang Li has been promoted blindly without laying a solid foundation in each realm.

"Before I overcame the tribulation, I had some insights and achieved the perfection of Dao Fruit, and then I was lucky enough to be promoted." Jiang Li said very modestly.

As soon as these words came out, everyone's thoughts were mixed. Even Yun Jiuye, who had been basically confirmed before, was also a little frightened.

He remembered what He Luo Shen said that day, if Jiang Li reaches the fifth level, he will be invincible.

When the King of Shu heard the words, a look of thick earth appeared in his eyes, and his pupils were faintly stretched into a vertical shape, majestic like a dragon. The invisible power spread immediately, rushing towards Jiang Li like an undercurrent.

Jiang Li only felt that his body was as heavy as a mountain on his shoulders. However, when he looked around, he found that the others were no different, as if the power did not exist.

'Only for me...'

Jiang Li had a profound insight, and immediately his body relaxed and his shoulders shook.

The King of Shu felt that his own momentum was like a hollow space, and instantly fell into the air. However, he was hit by an incomparable force on the side, pushing away the mountainous momentum.

I saw two earth-yellow streams of light flashing around Jiang Li, and there was a sudden shock, and I could vaguely feel the heavy force.

"It is indeed the fifth grade,"

The King of Shu had a thought, and the stream of light dispersed, and then he praised: "The foundation is so strong, it is incredible. Master Gongsun, if Jiang Li goes to war, I am willing to go to the court and grant the title of Third Duke."

Although the Golden Embankment will not be considered destroyed as long as the final Tianhe Pass is not broken, if we can save the other two embankments, we must still try our best to preserve them.

The fish mouth diverts water and the water outlet diverts and discharges floods. With these two dams, the pressure on Tianhe Pass can be greatly reduced.

The King of Shu would not think that Wuzhiqi would give up if only Tianhe Pass was left. Even if Wuzhiqi gives up, Dragon Palace and Taiping Sect will not. Therefore, after seeing Jiang Li's foundation and his willingness to fight, the King of Shu immediately made a promise and endorsed Jiang Li.

But when the Liangzhou governor saw this, he objected: "Even though he has a strong foundation, he is still entering the fifth rank for the first time. Your lord, I think it is a safe strategy to send a monk who has completed the fifth rank to take action."

"Pindao also thinks it's inappropriate," Taoist Wenxu then said, "Although young people have extraordinary talents, when it comes to cultivation and fighting experience, they may not be as good as those who entered the fifth level early. If they want to go into battle, they still have to You need to be careful. I think it is better to let those who can take action discuss it and choose the strongest one to fight. This is the best choice."

The man put on a smile and glanced at everyone present, especially the younger generation such as Jiang Li. He paused for a moment, "What do you think?"

"I agree." Liangzhou Governor was the first to add a postscript.

The King of Shu also looked thoughtful, then nodded and said: "This is indeed a choice."

　Kakakakakakakakkak, I'm stuck.
