Too much fruit

Chapter 928: Do you have to fulfill your promise?
"this······"

Hearing Jiang Li's question, Yin Tulong showed a rare look of hesitation.

Now that the Immortal Palace has moved away, Kunxu Mountain can be said to be dominated by Yuxu Temple. In the past, we had to worry about the Immortal Palace stealing our home, but now we don’t even have to worry about that.

However, after the Immortal Palace left Kunxu Mountain, there was not a single third-grade person in Yuxu Temple, which was worse than before when one person left the temple and the other stayed at home.

Looking at Yin Tulong's appearance now, it seems that there is something hidden.

"Does my fellow Daoist have any difficulties?" Jiang Li didn't care that Yin Tulong was now a general of the imperial court and still called him fellow Daoist.

Upon hearing this, Yin Tulong no longer hesitated and said bluntly: "Your Majesty, do you still remember what you said?"

At first? What did you say at first?

A question mark appeared in Jiang Li's mind, and then he frantically searched his memory.

With his current strong spiritual power, he recalled his original words almost instantly...or rather, the pie he had promised.

——After the new emperor ascended the throne, he appointed Taoist Guangcheng as the imperial teacher to complete the cause and effect of Guangchengzi's Taoist fruit.

Jiang Li had painted such a good pie in the sky at the beginning, which made Taoist Guangcheng decide to join forces with Jiang Li.

At that time, Jiang Li had never thought that he would be the next emperor. He actually wanted to support a puppet to sit on the throne and become his own Jiang Sikong. At most, he thought of becoming the regent.

There was absolutely no option of ascending the throne himself in his plan at the time, and because he had made too many promises, he put this matter out of his mind.

Besides, whoever makes a promise will eventually come true.

Anyway, Emperor Jiang has made a lot of promises over the past few years, but he has never really let anyone eat them.

Unexpectedly, the pie he drew today turned into a boomerang and flew back.

Of course, Guangcheng Taoist wanted to be the Imperial Master. Apart from other things, he could benefit from the interpretation of the Dao Fruit. Even if he had completely integrated the Dao Fruit, it would not be a bad thing to be closer to the cause and effect of the Dao Fruit, not to mention that Guangcheng Taoist might not have completely integrated the Dao Fruit.

But it is impossible to get him to speak.

The past is the past, and the present is the present. In the past, Jiang Sikong was a fifth-rank official, and the Dao fruit for his promotion was provided by Yuxu Temple. Now, Jiang Tianzi is a third-rank official, and he is still the strongest. If he really doesn't want to, Taoist Guangcheng can do nothing about it.

Therefore, we need to be more tactful and give some hints so that both parties can save face.

Who would have thought that a certain Jiang Tianzi who treated people with sincerity would make too many promises and forget...
Now Jiang Li is facing a problem. Should he fulfill his promise or not?
Many thoughts went around in his mind, and Jiang Li's face showed a proper look of astonishment, and then he suddenly said: "It's my fault. I forgot about this matter after so many battles. Of course I remember what you said at the beginning. After this battle is over, I will issue an order to appoint Daoist Guangcheng as the Imperial Master. But there is one thing I want to make clear, you can't become my disciple. As long as Jiang Li is still in this world, there will only be one master."

As Jiang Li spoke, he did not forget to show his filial piety to Tian Xuan.

This reminded Tianxuan of the past scene - there was no two suns in the sky, and Jiang Li only had his master as the sun in his heart.

Although Jiang later said when he picked up Tianxuan, sunrise and sunset are the truth of heaven and earth, and the sun will also set...
No matter what happened later, Tianxuan was very pleased with this display of filial piety and nodded slightly to show his approval.

As for Yin Tulong...

He looked at the scene of the kind master and filial disciple, and there was something in his mind that he didn't know whether he should say it or not.

Although Yin Tulong did not see the fire in Jiang Li's backyard, thanks to a certain monkey, he was able to broaden his horizons and learn about Emperor Jiang's romantic affairs.

The monkey acquired the magical power of the Six-Eared Macaque and usually seemed to have put away his six ears, but in fact he was always enjoying using the magical power of his six ears to eavesdrop on interesting things.

During the days when he and Yin Tulong were visiting the capital, Monkey King explained to him the intricate network of relationships of Emperor Jiang, which shocked Yin Tulong and made him feel like he had never seen anything like it before.

Of course, these cannot be said out loud. Even though Yin Tulong is a straightforward person, he knows that it is a slide that cannot be touched.

He tried to pretend he didn't know anything and said, "Your Majesty and Fellow Daoist Tianxuan have a deep relationship as master and disciple, which is really enviable. My senior brother has already told me that Your Majesty doesn't need to perform the teacher's ceremony, and you don't need to address me as master. My senior brother is just teaching on behalf of the master, so Your Majesty can address me as fellow disciples. The title of Imperial Master is not necessary, the fact that you teach is enough."

If you do this, the effect will certainly not be as good as becoming a disciple, but there is no other way, it's because Jiang Li is progressing too fast.

Jiang Li dared to ask the strongest person to become his disciple, but Taoist Guangcheng did not dare to accept him. He even said that he did not need the title of Emperor's Teacher.

Jiang Li was willing to be the Imperial Master and keep his promise, but Taoist Guangcheng felt that he couldn't take it seriously. If the other party didn't want to break his promise, he had to give face and make concessions.

Therefore, Taoist Guangcheng had already told Yin Tulong in advance that if Jiang Li was willing to keep his promise, he would not accept any fame but only pass on the Dharma.

In this way, Yuxu Temple actually suffered a loss, but it could tie Yuxu Temple and Jiang Li together, and Jiang Li would certainly make up for it later. He would make up for the loss, or even more.

Jiang Li did not act pretentiously and said, "Then I will accept your kindness. From now on, Yuxu Temple will be regarded as another master of mine."

The two sides reached a satisfactory consensus on this. Yin Tulong was delighted and felt a little closer to Jiang Li.

With Jiang Li's current strength and status, he could have broken his promise, but he was not only willing to fulfill his promise, but also really wanted to be the emperor's teacher, which showed his sincerity. Yin Tulong was quite fond of Jiang Li's trustworthy behavior, and now Jiang Li was also his fellow disciple, so naturally he would not alienate him.

And this is what Jiang Li wants.

He also wanted to bind himself to Yuxu Temple through this move. In fact, if Taoist Guangcheng had not refused the title of Imperial Master, Jiang Li would really confer the title and do everything that should be done.

Since the pie in the sky had turned into a boomerang and flew back, Jiang Li took it. After all, it was the promise he made in the beginning, and he would not break away from Yuxu Temple for this.

This is very good now. Yuxu Temple has completely stood together with Jiang Li, further strengthening its own strength.

"I will go and inform Senior Brother Guangcheng and ask him to come over." Yin Tulong said immediately when he saw that the matter was resolved satisfactorily.

"By the way, since Your Majesty is also a member of Yuxu Temple, don't forget to deal with the traitors in the sect. Lord Shen betrayed the sect, which is a heinous crime. I have always wanted to get rid of this beast myself, but I have never had the chance. Since Your Majesty is able to plant people in the enemy, if there is a chance, I hope you can get rid of this traitor and restore the reputation of the sect."

Jiang Li almost couldn't help but twitch his eyes when he heard this, but he managed to hold back his expression and said with a smile: "This beast is also a traitor to my Jiang clan. He used the Divine Whip to disrupt my country, which is an unforgivable crime. It is my wish to get rid of him."

Upon hearing this, Yin Tulong felt even more favorable towards Jiang Li.

As long as you hate Shen Hou, you are his good friend.

"This traitor will pay the price sooner or later."

After saying this viciously, Yin Tulong leaped into the air and left on his Wind Fire Wheels.

Judging from his appearance, Taoist Guangcheng should have left Kunxu Mountain long ago, and may be outside Jingzhou now.

After all, Taoist Guangcheng didn't really have something important that prevented him from leaving Yuxu Temple, but he wanted Jiang Li to express his attitude.

Now the two sides have reached a consensus, and if Jiang Li wants to break his promise, then there will be a crack in the relationship with Yuxu Temple in the future. Although Jiang Li is powerful and is now the emperor, it seems that Yuxu Temple will not try to please him deliberately.

If no consensus is reached, this ally will not leave, but it will definitely not be as loyal as it is now.

After Yin Tulong left, there were fewer outsiders here. Gongsun Qingyue smiled and covered her mouth as if she was laughing secretly.

"What are you laughing at?" Tianxuan glared at this evil disciple.

"Disciple is so happy," Gongsun Qingyue said with a smile, "Dragon Slayer is famous for his straightforward personality. He said that Master and Junior Disciple have a deep relationship, so they must have a deep relationship. Disciple is so happy that he can't help but laugh."

"Since you are so happy, why not let your junior brother come and live with me?" Tianxuan said with a cold face.

"That couldn't be better," Gongsun Qingyue clapped his hands and said, "Junior brother, what do you think?"

"I'll listen to what the master says." Jiang Li responded decisively.

The two of them were arguing with each other, making it difficult for Tian Xuan to be angry with Jiang Li.

Finally, Tianxuan shook his head helplessly, "Just pamper your junior brother."

It would have been fine if she wasn't angry when her man cheated on her, but she was even trying to help him smooth things over. How could Tianxuan not know that she had taught such a love-brained apprentice?

But I have to say that Gongsun Qingyue's actions have made her position more and more stable, which is worthy of my teaching to her.

Although it is hard to comment on the fact that this evil disciple used all the skills he taught her to deal with himself.

"Ah-"

On the bank of a river, Lord Shen was riding on a dragon-whiskered tiger in the air, checking on the marching situation, when he suddenly sneezed.

"Someone is cursing the poor path."

Shen Hou said sternly: "I have been immune to cold and heat for a long time, so it is impossible for me to catch a cold. Someone must be cursing me."

"Shen Hou, there are so many people cursing you, don't forget your fellow disciples," Longxuhu said, riding the wind, "If they curse you, you will sneeze, and twelve hours a day will not be enough for you to sneeze. I think this is just a coincidence."

"What do you know?" Shen Hou rolled his eyes and snorted.

Thinking of how Shen Hou endured humiliation and lurked among the enemy troops, his senior brothers and the head of the family understood how difficult it was for him. Even if someone in the sect or the family cursed him, his senior brothers and the head of the family would speak for him.

How is it possible to sneeze all day long?

The fact that you don’t sneeze on a daily basis is proof of this.

It must be someone else cursing me.

Shen Hou was thinking to himself when suddenly he had an idea and took out a mirror from the Qiankun bag, a magical storage tool he carried with him.

Back then, when he was a traitor in Yuxu Temple... No, he was pretending to be a traitor under the orders of his senior brother. He had secretly contacted the Immortal Palace and had dealings with those domineering women. This mirror was the communication tool.

But as Lord Shen left Yuxu Temple, the connection was severed. I never thought that today...

"Why does the Immortal Palace want to see me?" Shen Hou murmured.
