Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

The ceremonial procession of the Sanhe County Magistrate was extremely large.

With an entire school of Sanhe Guards and Shadow Guards leading the way, this scale of movement does not seem like a patrol, but more like a means to intimidate some scoundrels.

Sanhe Guard is the main military force of Sanhe County and has always been controlled by the Liu family.

Different from the Shadow Guards who are the Liu family's private security force, the Sanhe Guards are the military force of Sanhe County, with a large number of people and a huge scale.

The entire Sanhewei has a total of six schools and 3,000 people.

Every soldier in Sanhewei is a warrior of Bronze Skin Realm, and the captain must be at least of Iron Bone Realm.

The captain of each school is a martial artist who has reached the Blood-Moving and Awakening stage.

In order to keep Sanhewei in their hands, the Liu family spent countless resources.

The weapons and armors made in the Liu family's manor Wubao, the blood rice grown, and the monsters raised were all for the purpose of supplying the Sanhe Guards.

In the entire Sanhe County, apart from the Liu family, no one can afford to support the three thousand elite warriors of the Sanhe Guard.

During the time of Liu Zhao, the previous governor of Sanhe County and the old patriarch of the Liu family, Liu Zhao often organized competitions between the various schools of the Sanhe Guard, and also led the Sanhe Guard to tour the nine counties and intimidate all over.

When there were frictions between Sanhe County and other counties, Sanhe Guards were also the main deterrent force.

A school of Sanhe Guards, with five hundred armored soldiers, their strength is definitely not something that can be dealt with by just five hundred warriors of the Bronze Skin and Iron Bones realm.

The warriors of Sanhewei all practiced the art of military formations. They were good at forming formations to meet the enemy, and fighting on the battlefield.

In a one-on-one fight, they may be on par with ordinary warriors, but in a five-on-five fight, Sanhewei will not lose, and in a ten-on-ten fight, Sanhewei will definitely win.

When the number of people reaches fifty or even a hundred, the Sanhe Guards in formation are no longer something that the private forces of the aristocratic families can contend with.

At this time, Liu Ziyu brought a school of Sanhe Guards to inspect Jiulian and Mo Shui counties. The most nervous was the Wang family of Jiulian City.

Wang Kang, the head of the Wang family, who received the news, could not help but frown: "Old Ghost Liu came to inspect Anyang Mountain. Is he coming for Anyang Mountain or for our Wang family?"

Previously, the Wang family and the Hou family formed an alliance. Wang Kang asked his most proud son, Wang Ziyi, the heir of the Wang family, to lead four teams of iron guards into the mountains to provide support. At the same time, he also intended to watch the fire from the other side of the river and fish in troubled waters.

But four teams of iron guards were buried in the mountains, which caused the Wang family's private forces to be reduced by more than half!
How many of the Wang Family's Iron Guards are there? Do you really think it's easy to train warriors?

However, many of Wang's Iron Guards were killed, as were many of Mo's Owl Guards and Hou's Snake Guards. In the end, Mo's goal was not achieved, and Hou's family did not catch the nine-tailed cat.

This made Wang Kang feel a little more balanced.

As long as Wang Kang is given time, he will be able to restore the Iron Guard's organization. After all, there are plenty of people willing to join the Wang family, and it is not difficult to select some qualified ones.

It just takes time.

There are still armor-piercing heavy crossbows and iron armor in Jiuliancheng’s arsenal, but the warriors need to be trained.

The Wang family is now seriously injured, and the Liu family is coming to inspect at this time, bringing a school of Sanhe Guards with them. It is hard for Wang Kang not to be suspicious.

What's more, the relationship between the Wang family and the Hou family made it difficult for Wang Kang not to think too much.

Facing his suspicious father, Wang Ziyi said, "Father, in my opinion, the county governor is not here to target our Wang family. At most, he is just trying to intimidate us."

Wang Kang looked at Wang Ziyi and motioned for him to continue.

Wang Ziyi smiled and said, "The simplest truth is that our Jiulian Wang family is also a county family no matter what. We are a family that has been ruling Jiulian County for thousands of years. We are the first line of defense for Sanhe County. Even if we don't have any merits, we have worked hard, right?"

"Even if we don't mention all this, today the county governor dared to take advantage of our Wang family's weakness to destroy our Wang family. Who can guarantee that tomorrow the county governor will not take advantage of the Hou family and the Mo family's weakness to destroy them?"

"It is true that the Liu family is a prominent family in the county, but without the support of aristocratic families like us, the Liu family is just an aristocratic family trapped in the county town. How can they be considered a prominent family in the county?"

"The county governor cannot afford the disloyalty of the noble families."

Wang Kang's expression eased a lot, and he looked at Wang Ziyi with more satisfaction: "I still underestimated my son. You can already support the family."

Wang Ziyi said quickly: "Father is in his prime, how can you say that?"

Wang Kang said, "The Wang family will be handed over to you sooner or later. I am at the Blood-Moving Awakening Stage. I cannot break through the inner realm. I can only live for more than 200 years at best."

"But you are different. You have the hope of breaking through the inner scene and becoming a master of the inner scene divine storage realm."

"I know your talent. As long as we have the skills and resources, our Wang family can rise to prominence."

After hearing Wang Kang mention this, Wang Ziyi said, "Father, I remembered someone."

Wang Kang asked, "Who?"

Wang Ziyi said: "Zhang Xiaojiu, a villager from Liuhe Village, Shancheng Town."

Wang Kang immediately realized what Wang Ziyi meant: "You mean?"

Wang Ziyi said: "Since returning from Anyang Mountain, I have sent people to investigate secretly."

"Zhang Xiaojiu was a skinny boy from the mountains six or seven years ago. But after he found a man one day, he started to change. He learned to read, he understood pharmacology, and he also learned martial arts."

"It's only been six or seven years, and Zhang Xiaojiu has gone from being a country boy with no foundation to a bronze-skinned warrior. His basic skills are extremely solid, and his moves are like those of a master." "Reading, literacy, pharmacology and martial arts, is this something a country boy can understand?"

Wang Kang stroked his beard and said, "I understand what you mean. The person Zhang Xiaojiu picked up is extraordinary."

"I also know that the one who killed the old snake this time was the one Zhang Xiaojiu picked up."

Wang Ziyi said, "Yes, I also sent people to learn from the villagers of Liuhe Village. When Zhang Xiaojiu picked up the man, his body was covered with wounds and his bones were broken. It can be said that he was dead."

"But then the man recovered without eating any blood or taking any medicine."

"Although I was confined to a wheelchair for six or seven years, my external injuries have healed."

“Isn’t that strange?”

Wang Kang frowned: "What are you going to do?"

Wang Ziyi smiled and said, "I plan to go to Liuhe Village to visit that person. His origin is too mysterious. The villagers of Liuhe Village don't know where he came from. It seems that he appeared out of thin air."

"The more this is the case, the more it shows that person is extraordinary."

"Even if we can't make friends with it, we can't offend it easily. Even our county governor doesn't have the ability to kill the Red Snake King with just one glance."

Wang Kang nodded: "Since you have an idea, just go for it."

In fact, it was not only the Wang family that was trying to find out about Jiang Sheng. The Mo family in Mo Shui City, the Hou family in Heishan City, and other families in Sanhe County were all trying to find out about Jiang Sheng.

But after much inquiry, he failed to obtain any useful information.

All we know is that six or seven years ago, Zhang Laosan and Zhang Xiaojiu took the seriously injured and dying Jiang Sheng back home, and nothing else was found.

No one knew how Jiang Sheng appeared in Anyang Mountain, where he came from, or whether he had any markings on his body.

It was as if Jiang Sheng had fallen from the sky, it was really mysterious.

But if he really fell from the sky, what god could have fallen into such a state that he had to stay in a wheelchair for six or seven years?
All forces were worried and puzzled. Anyone would be worried when faced with a person who could kill the Red Snake King with one glance even if he was sitting in a wheelchair.

After learning that Liu Ziyu was personally leading the team to Anyang Mountain, the Hou family became the most worried one, even more worried than the Wang family.

After all, the Wang family is at most a fence-sitter, but the Hou family directly stood up to challenge the Liu family.

The death of Liu Zhao, the former head of the Liu family, was closely related to the Hou family, which made the two families become personal enemies.

This time, the Hou family was ordered by the Liuyanzong Jin family to catch the nine-tailed cat, but they failed. Hou Chonghu even offended Jiang Sheng. This was really bad luck for the Hou family.

In the Heishan City built on the mountain, the Lord of Heishan City and the head of the Hou family, Hou Feiyuan, and Hou Chonghu were having a secret conversation in the study.

Hou Chonghu asked, "Father, is there any news from the Liuyan Sect?"

Hou Feiyuan shook his head: "The Jin family has already replied, saying that they have never heard of anyone named Ling Yuan."

"I don't know where this person came from. Could it be that he really fell from the sky?"

When Hou Chonghu heard that the Jin family had no news about Jiang Sheng, his brows knitted tightly together, almost twisting into a ball: "If the Liu family can invite Ling Yuan, then the Liu family will really turn the tables."

Hou Feiyuan thought about it and sighed helplessly: "To be able to kill the Red Snake King at the peak of the Blood Moving and Awakening Realm with one glance, such a skill is impossible for me, not to mention my father, even Liu Ziyu and even Liu Zhao to do it."

Hou Chonghu's expression changed: "Even a master of Tongmai Baodan realm can't do it, could it be that Lingyuan is a martial saint of Neijing Shenzang realm?"

Hou Feiyuan said coldly: "Just because your father can't do it doesn't mean others can't do it! Chonghu, don't panic!"

"Don't forget that we still have the Jin family behind us. The Jin family doesn't want to see the Liu family continue to dominate Sanhe County!"

After hearing this, Hou Chonghu calmed down and said, "Father is right. It is the child who is upset."

Hou Feiyuan stood up and slowly walked to the window of the study. Looking at the pavilions and terraces in the City Lord's Mansion, the lush flowers and plants, and the elegant maids, Hou Feiyuan said, "It's not like the Jin family didn't send any news."

"There are only a few techniques in the world that can kill people with the eyesight."

"The former Martial Saint of the Inner Vision Divine Hidden Realm, the Changhong Sword Saint who was known as the Sword Master of the World, once said that the sword cuts the flesh, and the heart cuts the soul."

"The Changhong Sword Saint has the magical power of the sword in the heart. He can transform his eyes into swords and kill people without their presence within a hundred miles."

"Apart from the Changhong Sword Saint, the former Overlord also had a sharp gaze and the ability to kill people with his eyes."

“That Ling Yuan, maybe he just inherited some of the legacy from Changhong Sword Saint or Overlord, and gained a magical power.”

Hou Chonghu still had doubts: "But."

Hou Feiyuan said, "No buts. I'll write a letter and you can send it to Liuyan Sect to meet Elder Jin. I'll tell you about the magical power of Lingyuan."

"As long as Elder Jin is interested, the Liu family and Ling Yuan are nothing to be afraid of."

"Even if he is really a Martial Saint in the Inner Vision Divine Hidden Realm, how much of a threat is he to a Martial Saint who can only sit in a wheelchair?" (End of this chapter)
