The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire

This is also why in the original book, Ning Caichen stayed in Lanruo Temple for one night, and after he came back safe and sound, he went to ask for the debt. The restaurant owner didn't even dare to repay the debt, so he gave it directly.

It's not that he is afraid of Ning Caichen, a weak scholar, but that he and everyone in the town think that Ning Caichen has become a ghost, just because of his obsession before death, and he will never forget to pay back the bill. I'm in debt.

Ordinary people encounter such things as ghosts demanding debts, and without special means to restrain these spirits, how dare they not follow the ghosts' minds.

When Zhong Yu's army arrived at Jinhua Mansion, the prefect general of Jinhua Mansion did not dare to resist at all, and directly led the 5,000 defenders in the mansion to surrender.

Then when Zhong Yu was staying in Jinhua Mansion, during a banquet, he overheard the prefect of Jinhua Mansion complaining to him that the tree demons in Lanruo Temple in Guobei County were rampant, slaughtering passers-by wantonly.

In the three years since he took office, no less than a thousand people have died at the hands of the tree demon, and the local people have suffered greatly from it.

When Zhong Yu heard the news just now, Zhong Yu's heart moved, and he immediately thought of the very famous movie A Chinese Ghost Story, which is also a very brilliant story in Liaozhai.

Among them, the love story between Ning Caichen and Nie Xiaoqian is naturally very touching, Yan Chixia's righteousness and thinness are also admirable, and even the evil of the tree demon grandmother is also hated, but this is not the reason why Zhong Yu pays attention to him.

Although the dryad's grandmother is strong, according to intelligence speculation, it should have reached the sixth level.

But he was burdened by his own body. Although the millennium locust trees stretched for dozens of miles and he was huge, he had many advantages in the home game.

But because of this, they couldn't move around at will, and the range of activities was limited to the surrounding Guobei County, which couldn't make any big climate at all.

Especially for Zhong Yu, who owns hundreds of counties, the gain or loss of a single county is nothing at all, and it cannot disturb his overall situation, let alone threaten his rule.

Presumably this is also the reason why the former governor of northern Jiangxi Province, knowing that there was a tree demon in Guobei County, Jinhua Prefecture, causing serious damage, did not send troops to conquer it.

It is because they know that the tree demon can't be successful, coupled with their strong strength, they have an advantage on the home court and are extremely difficult to deal with.

If one is not good, I may stumble, and the gain outweighs the loss.

But that's just because the Governor's opinion is superficial, or his information about the tree demon is too one-sided, and it's because he doesn't know his background very well.

The tree demon grandma was subordinate to a great demon, the Black Mountain Demon King, and the Montenegro Demon King was a great demon who had cholera in the underworld.

The Black Mountain Demon King recruited troops in the underworld, and continued to attack the underworld led by Emperor Fengdu. Now he has occupied 1/3 of the underworld, and his momentum was so great that he seriously disrupted the order of the underworld.

It can be said that a large part of the reason why the world is so chaotic and where demons and ghosts are rampant is due to the hands of the Black Mountain Demon King.

The Black Mountain Demon King is powerful. It is said that he is an eighth-level master, and he is still the best among them.

Moreover, there are countless ghost soldiers under his command, all of whom are elite troops who have experienced battles for a long time. Otherwise, the Emperor Fengdu who would not be able to fight was retreating steadily.

And as a subordinate of the Black Mountain Demon King, the dryad grandma appeared in Guobei County, even if she couldn't leave because of her body, the reason is worth pondering.

After all, although the tree demon is strong, it is only a sixth level. Compared with the old black mountain demon who has reached the eighth level, he is not much different from the ants, so how can he be deliberately taken by the old black mountain demon? , and took him as his subordinate.

There must be some kind of unknown secret in it, and this secret is related to a certain layout of the black mountain old demon for the two worlds of yin and yang.

If this kind of layout appeared in other places, such as the empires of Korea, Wei, Tang, and Jin, then Zhong Yu would naturally not be full and go off to meddle in his own business.

After all, although Zhong Yu is determined to unify the entire human world, even conquer the underworld, and even the legendary heaven that does not know whether it exists or not.

But all of these things were considered before he had the strength.

Now that Zhong Yu is weak, if the Black Mountain old demon can help him weaken the strength of the powerful empire next to him, maybe he will secretly laugh and take the initiative to push the leader.

As for the difference between human beings and monsters, Zhong Yu, who had been the emperor for a long time, would not have taken it to heart long ago. All he considered was the interests of the empire.

As long as the Black Mountain old demon can help him weaken the power of the empire next to him, so that he can conquer better and easier in the future, then he will only be grateful, not angry.

At most, in order to make a political show and publicize the righteousness of the human race, he would scold the old Montenegrin demon for his brutal behavior in public, and then declare that they are incompatible.

But now the hands of the Black Mountain old demon have actually inserted into the Daming Kingdom, and Zhong Yu, who has long regarded the Daming Kingdom as his own Chinese food, will naturally not tolerate the behavior of others taking food from his mouth, let alone allow his own imperial rule to appear Great hidden danger.

No matter what the purpose of the tree demon grandma is, as long as he dares to appear in his territory, no matter how big his background is, he must get rid of it.

It seems to be mentioned in the original book that after the tree demon grandma was eliminated by Yan Chixia and others, she attracted the big boss behind the scenes, the Black Mountain Demon King, and after a battle of wits, Yan Chixia and others successfully defeated the Montenegro Demon King, What kind of underworld escaped, and Nie Xiaoqian was successfully reincarnated.

However, from Zhong Yu's point of view, since Yan Chixia fought with the dryad's grandma evenly, and even fell into a disadvantage, then his strength must be only at the sixth level, and no matter how strong he is, he will not be stronger than the seventh level.

But he was able to defeat the Black Mountain Old Demon. You must know that the Heishan Old Demon is an eighth-level master, and there are two small ranks behind Yan Chixia, one big rank.

With such a powerful strength, how could it be possible for Yan Chixia to defeat it so easily, even with the help of the seemingly powerful Buddhist treasure, the Diamond Sutra.

It's not too difficult to leapfrog battles at lower ranks, Zhong Yu can do it by himself, and with a sixth rank cultivation base, he can single-handedly fight more than ten seventh ranks.

Now that they are about to break through to the seventh level, their strength will increase sharply, and it will not be difficult to deal with dozens or even nearly a hundred of them in the same level.

But if he is asked to deal with an eighth-order, it is completely courting death.

After all, although the sixth and seventh ranks are called half-gods and half-immortals, they are not real immortals after all, but just transitions between mortals and immortals.

Not for immortals, but for ants after all.

If you want to deal with a real fairy god, you can only succeed if you gather hundreds of masters of the sixth and seventh ranks to form a large formation so that a fairy god can't escape.

But even if it succeeds, these masters must have suffered heavy casualties, and few of them will survive in the end.

Besides, it is impossible to let a fairy stay in place and let the enemy attack.

So this is nothing more than a falsehood, mortals cannot deal with immortal gods.
