Starting from the martial arts world, Gan became a true master of martial arts.

Chapter 426 Nine-child Buddhist Lotus
Fang Xuan didn't care about the future of Shuijing Sect. This matter had nothing to do with him. The final choice depended on Zhang Li himself.

Of course, Haizhou is also a good place to go. Fang Xuan has also thought about inviting him to join the Dragon Whale Army. A warrior at the fifth level of the heavens is a considerable combat force for Haizhou.

But after going through so many things in the past year, Fang Xuan would not force it.

He didn't chat much with Zhang Li, but Jiang Tianting whetted Fang Xuan's appetite. After chatting in the tavern for a while, Fang Xuan looked at the sky and did not go directly to the An Mansion.

Jiang Tian suddenly suggested, "Senior Long, let me take you around Tianshui County. Many warriors have gathered here recently. The Tianyi Chamber of Commerce in the south of the city has specially held an Yibao Conference. Maybe you can find some treasures there."

Hearing Yi Bao, Fang Xuan also became interested.

It would be nice if he could find some basic and powerful martial arts skills. As his most powerful killing move now, the Kunwu Sword Formation pales in comparison to the martial artists in the upper realm.

Zhang Li was not in a hurry to open Tianshui County. Being rejected by Anzhe did not mean that he would give up.

Several people found an inn nearby.

Jiang Tian took Fang Xuan and walked towards the Tianyi Chamber of Commerce in the south of the city.

On the way, Fang Xuan asked, "You know that the Qingtian Dragon Tiger's demon pill is in my hands, so you never thought of asking me for help?"

Jiang Tian shook his head without thinking: "If it weren't for you, Senior, helping us on the mountain, Junior Sister Feng and I would have died. How could I dare to ask for a demon pill?"

"Besides, this is also Shuijing Sect's internal affairs. Opportunities that are forced are not yours after all."

Fang Xuan looked at the other person with some surprise. There was no trace of pretense on his face, and his words sounded particularly sincere.

For a moment, Fang Xuan thought of an old friend.

Chu Kuang is also a free and easy person by nature. Apart from his gambling hobby, he is also very casual.

Unlike Chu Kuang, Jiang Tian has something he strives for, but he does not expect anything beyond his own ability.

"If you really can't find a suitable place to go, Haizhou is an option!" Fang Xuan reminded again.

Jiang Tian chuckled and said, "Senior Long, you are not from Haizhou!"

It was originally just a casual joke, but Fang Xuan nodded seriously: "I am indeed from Haizhou. If we talk about the nine provinces today, the only one that can be considered a pure land is Haizhou!"

The two looked at each other speechlessly.

The Yibao Conference in the south of the city was very lively, but in just half an afternoon, Fang Xuan did not find anything he liked.

In the room of Tianyi Chamber of Commerce, Fang Xuan sat on the bed, quietly listening to the various introductions to the treasures coming from below.

After a while, Jiang Tian entered the room, and he could hardly suppress the smile on his face. It was obvious that he had found something good.

After sitting down, Jiang Tian suddenly asked: "Senior, you are here for the 300,000 Dragon Guards, right?"

Fang Xuan paused for a moment, then asked, "Why do you ask that?"

Jiang Tian took out the treasure he had just bought, and while examining it carefully in his hand, he explained with a smile: "The people who came to Tianshui County during this period can be divided into three categories."

"The first category is just like the warriors below, joining in the fun and trying their luck."

"The second category is warriors like me and my master. We originally came here to find a way to survive for ourselves or the sect."

"Both types of people have one thing in common: they either don't have a strong background or they don't have strong capabilities themselves."

“And the seniors fit perfectly into the third category.”

Fang Xuan had a smile on his face the whole time as he listened calmly.

Jiang Tian pretended to pause and continued, "I have great strength and want to fight for the dominance of the 300,000 Dragon Guards in Zhongzhou."

"Of course they can do it for themselves, or for the forces behind them."

After he finished speaking, Fang Xuan felt a slight movement in his heart.

Although Jiang Tian looks rough, his observations are detailed enough.

He raised his hand, and a demon pill floated in Fang Xuan's hand, emitting a faint white light. The whole room was instantly filled with powerful energy.

Fang Xuan looked at Jiang Tian calmly and said, "Tell me what you know, and it's yours!"

Jiang Tian stood up and closed the door, and the noise from downstairs outside disappeared instantly.

Then he said in a deep voice: "Master needs this demon pill this time for Anzhe's youngest son. I heard that this demon pill is needed to break through the fourth level, so we went up the mountain at all costs."

"But as far as I know, there is something more important to the An Mansion!"

The man's voice became more solemn, "Nine Sons Buddha Lotus."

Fang Xuan put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Jiang Tian calmly.

The latter continued, "It is said that the An family's ancestor has not died, and is in a critical period of breaking through. And everyone in the An family is secretly looking for the Nine Sons Buddha Lotus."

Fang Xuan was slightly stunned as if he had heard an ancient legend.

Ancestor of the An family?

Isn’t that a person from the same era as the ancestor of the Wulin Alliance?

Suddenly Fang Xuan remembered that when he left the Wulin Alliance, Zhao Chuanxiong gave him a token.

Could it be that the old friend that Zhao Chuanxiong mentioned was the ancestor of the An family? Fang Xuan gently rubbed the demon pill with two fingers, pondered for a long time, and gently pushed with his right hand.

The demon pill with white glow floated towards Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian took the demon pill in his hand, but a hint of fanaticism flashed across his eyes, and then he quickly calmed down and pushed the demon pill back.
"Senior, this demon pill may be a disaster for our Shuijing Sect."

Fang Xuan said "oh" and looked at the other person in silence.

Jiang Tian immediately stood up, walked to the bedside, and sighed: "If my guess is correct, Master must want to bring the entire Shuijing Sect to join Wanzhou."

"The last bit of power left in Dayang. Some people always think that Dayang Dynasty can be reborn in the flames. But who can see clearly that when disasters hit the world and refugees were everywhere, Dayang was already dead."

"The Shuijing Sect should not become Dayang's last cannon fodder. If you trust me, please give me a handwritten letter. I will go and convince Master to join the Dragon Whale Army!"

Seeing the determination in Jiang Tian's eyes, Fang Xuan pondered for a moment and took out a round jade.

"Go to Haizhou and give this item to Sikong Jihuai."

After receiving the round jade, Jiang Tian bowed and gave Fang Xuan a clumsy military salute: "Thank you, Commander Fang!"

In fact, when Jiang Tian deliberately mentioned the Nine-Child Buddhist Lotus, Fang Xuan knew that he had guessed his identity.

But sometimes, there is no need to say too much between truly smart people.

People like Jiang Tian who can see through the details, even if they are not strong, are rare geniuses for the Dragon Whale Army.

At least Zhou Guwu will definitely like it!
When I came out of Tianyi Chamber of Commerce, it was already midnight, one quarter after the hour of Chou.

Fang Xuan had a lot more worries in his mind.

Jiang Tian changed into a Confucian robe, which looked a little weird.

There is no curfew in Tianshui County at night. Even at midnight, there are still many people on the streets, especially in the romantic places on both sides of the river, which are even more lively.

As Jiang Tian walked, he suddenly asked, "Prince Xuanyi's army has already moved south, and Leizhou is now in danger. Did you know this?"

Fang Xuan did not answer. He naturally knew the situation in Jiuzhou better than anyone else. After King Xuan Yi proclaimed himself emperor, Master Hongmei proclaimed himself emperor within half a month.

There are three emperors in Kyushu today.

Sometimes Fang Xuan wondered, if Shangjing City had not been sealed, would the situation have developed in a different direction?
Seeing that Fang Xuan did not answer, Jiang Tian muttered to himself: "If Prince Xuan Yi really takes Leizhou, Zhongzhou will be in danger."

"The Red Eyebrow Army in Yanzhou is nothing but a bunch of evil bandits. Even if they claim to be emperor, they won't achieve anything. But if Prince Xuanyi points his sword at Zhongzhou, who can hold him back?"

When they arrived at the tavern where they had been during the day, Jiang Tian bowed to Fang Xuan to thank him and say goodbye.

Jiang Tian turned and left, while Fang Xuan moved and disappeared into the darkness.

The winding streets and alleys of Tianshui County are like a dense spider web.

The scattered guards performed their duties in an orderly manner on the streets.

In the dark night, a woman in black looked at the boy at the end of the team, then turned to ask the man next to her: "Chongguang, can we trust what this boy says? What if our trip is in vain? We will have no way out."

"Zhaoyang, we can only trust him now." The middle-aged man with a goatee and wearing a black smart suit said solemnly: "The person Rouzhao is looking for should be fine."

Zhao Yang frowned and said, "For such an important matter, the general only sent two of us. If something goes wrong, we will definitely be blamed!"

"I don't know how many warriors from various states have gathered in Tianshui County. If too many people are dispatched, it will attract other people's attention. And no one knows whether Gu Chengxuan and King Xuanyi have other plans. These people must be kept a close eye on!" Chongguang looked up at the starry sky above his head, paused for a moment and continued:
"I don't need to repeat the importance of the Nine-Child Buddhist Lotus. Maybe this kid can really help us find something?"

Zhaoyang said in a serious tone: "I hope so."

As she spoke, she turned back to look at the young man following behind her.

The young man was now panting at the back of the team, his not very long hair was wet, and his face was covered with a black scarf that had already been soaked.

"This kid has a foundation in martial arts!" Zhaoyang exclaimed.

Both of them were An Mansion's confidants, warriors of the Fifth Heavenly Gate, and the best among warriors. Although the two of them walked very casually, it was not easy for the young man to follow them all the time.

The group left Tianshui County and climbed along the mountain road beside the official road to the top of a nearby mountain.

The boy crouched to the top of the mountain and pointed forward: "That's it, the highest point of the mountain!"

Zhaoyang climbed a few steps very quickly. On the top of the mountain there were stone tablets and tombs, stretching for dozens of acres in all directions.

There are also various stone men and stone watchtowers standing around.

Chongguang stared at the endless mausoleums, stunned for a moment, then turned around and looked at the young man in confusion, "This is the general's tomb of the Dragon Guards. The Nine-Child Buddha Lotus, which is considered a sacred object in Buddhism, is it really here?"

Zhaoyang also felt that it was somewhat impossible, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes as he looked at the young man.

The boy had reason to believe that if he told a lie at this moment, death would be the only thing waiting for him the next moment.

He pointed to the top of the mountain and said with certainty: "My perception must be correct."

Chongguang and Zhaoyang looked at each other, and then looked at the top of the mountain again with a much more determined gaze.

Chongguang waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

"Be careful!"
