Chapter 1347 – Alliance
Li Moyang was a gentle and refined looking, middle-aged man. He said that it was because of his temperament. Judging from his appearance, he should be around thirty years old. He wasn’t very handsome, but he had a self-confidence that no matter what it was, he wouldn’t be afraid. It was faint, but it was something that others couldn’t ignore.
With such an achievement, it wouldn’t be normal if he didn’t have the same level of confidence.
Celestial Sovereign turned around and glanced at Li Moyang: “What, even you are worried?”
Li Moyang nodded his head: “After all, he had just killed the Nine Saints. Although An Zheng had always been closing his door to thank customers, saying that he was recuperating from his injuries … Everyone knew that he was just putting on an act. It shouldn’t be too hard for him to kill the Nine Saints. ”
Yang Ji said: “It’s not too hard for you to kill the Nine Saints.”
“But I won’t kill the Nine Saints.”
Li Moyang said: “At first, when you, Celestial Sovereign, had gathered all of us together, you said that the Immortal Palace wanted the mortal world to be stable and have a long peace. Too much trouble. Without it, the framework would be unstable. For all these years, the Jizhou had always been like this. We fought openly and secretly, but we never crossed the line. Celestial Sovereign, you should also be aware that if nothing happens, no one will care about anyone else and their lives will become boring. ”
Yang Ji said: “I know what sort of people you are. Don’t show your loyalty to the immortal palace in front of me without revealing your emotions. Don’t show me your respect, I won’t believe it even if you tell me. If you all had the ambition and the power, you would already be ranked first in Jizhou. It’s just that you guys are afraid, the immortal palace does not give you any kindness, and you don’t need to be grateful. What the immortal palace has given your mortal world will never have any kindness, it’s only killing and deterrence. ”
Li Moyang was unable to finish his sentence, he felt a little awkward.
Actually, everyone was well aware of this matter. It was just that no one dared to say it out loud. What kindness would the immortal palace give to the people of the Mortal Realm? It was already a blessing for him to not kill all of the cultivators of the Mortal Realm.
“An Zheng crossed the border.”
Li Moyang cupped his fists and bowed his head: “Therefore, we still have to consult with you.”
“Ask me what? This is a matter between you Worldly cultivators, it has nothing to do with me, nor with the immortal palace. ”
“But you, Lord Celestial Sovereign, said that one more Jizhou would be troublesome, and one less would be unstable. Now that An Zheng has stepped out, the Nine Saint Sect has been annihilated, the Bai Shengjun has been killed, and even if we acknowledge his position, from the looks of it, he is already missing a person. If nothing unexpected happened, the Heavenly Awakening Sect’s army would quickly annex the Nine Saint Sect’s territory. When the time comes, Heavenly Awakening Sect’s family will occupy two families’ land, how will they be able to maintain their stability? ”
“Then think of a way to stabilize it.”
Yang Ji sat down, crossed his legs and looked at the scenery outside: “I’m here, but I have to come because of Martial Arts Conference. As for how you open the Martial Arts Conference, whether it be a four sect three monarch arena, or a conspiracy of five people surrounding and attacking one person, I don’t care. The higher ups sent me over, and as usual, they just wanted to see if there was some genius that only appears once in a hundred years in Martial Arts Conference, and then they would just have to watch you guys get rid of him. ”
After Yang Ji finished speaking, Li Moyang immediately laughed: “Thank you for your guidance,.”
“What did I teach you?” I didn’t give any guidance. I told you, this is a matter between the cultivators of the Mortal Realm, it has nothing to do with the immortal palace, and it has nothing to do with me. You guys killed me, so I’m happy to watch a big show. I don’t care how many people die, I don’t care. Do you mean that the frame is stable, that one frame has seven legs, or that one frame has five legs? ”
He closed his eyes. “I’m tired. You can leave first.”
Li Moyang lowered his head: “Then I’ll take my leave first.”
Walking out of Yang Ji’s room, Li Moyang felt much better. The person he was most worried about was not An Zheng, but the person who was backing An Zheng. This An Zheng came out of nowhere, the Heavenly Awakening Sect had displayed a power that made people fear, but before that, they had never heard of any news regarding the Heavenly Awakening Sect. And the Heavenly Awakening Sect had directly annihilated the Bai Shengjun, and replaced it with killing the Nine Saint Sect. Rumor has it that the million strong army of the Qinguan was already preparing to enter the Nine Saint Sect’s territory. Since the Nine Saints were already dead, the remaining eight people weren’t even worth mentioning. An Zheng’s one finger strike was enough to exterminate them, and in order to protect themselves, they obviously wouldn’t dare to actually confront An Zheng. At most, they would only take up a small area of land each and every one of them occupied.
Once the immortal palace remained as indifferent as it was before, the Heavenly Awakening Sect’s expansion speed would immediately go berserk. Before long, they had seized Nine Saint Sect’s territory. Heavenly Awakening Sect was the strongest family, and no one in the Jizhou could stop An Zheng. Kai Yuan Temple was at peace with the world. As long as the temple was still there, the monks would not care about the affairs of the martial arts world. Rumor has it that a few days ago, the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions was reprimanded by the people of the Mizar Temple for not admitting that the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions was the founder. The Mizar Temple was too preoccupied with its own matters and did not care about the Heavenly Awakening Sect or An Zheng.
In fact, Li Moyang felt that those monks at the Mizar Temple were also stupid. If they could get the support of the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions, then the Mizar Temple would already be the leader of the monks in the Jizhou. However, the monks of the Kaiyuan Temple each insisted that the Central Plains Buddhist Sect was not a branch of the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions, nor was it passed down from the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions. All these years, they had searched through many ancient books and finally came to a conclusion … The previous body of the Buddhist Sect was actually the sect that had risen up in the most area of the Nine Prefectures, Liang Prefecture.
In the ancient times, when the Daofather rode his Cyan Bull out of the Huogu Kowloon, he was initially not alone, but he had a disciple accompanying him. Amongst them was one of the people who came from the Liang Prefecture. He followed the Daofather and asked him questions. The Daofather had given him many insights. However, before leaving the Huogu Kowloon, this person fell ill and stayed in the Jizhou. Jizhou was the head of the Nine Prefectures. Although it was not the largest in terms of geographical location, it was the most important.
This person who stayed in the Jizhou to recuperate and accept disciples was the predecessor of the Mizar Temple. Later on, this person died of an illness in the Jizhou, and some of his disciples went westward in pursuit of the Daofather. It was possible that this was the origin of the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions.
Therefore, the people of the Mizar Temple believed that, in the end, no matter how powerful the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions was, it was still spread out from the Nine Prefectures of the Central Plains. The Western Regions allowed the people of the Kaiyuan Temple to recognize the orthodox status of the Buddhist Sect, so how could the people of the Kaiyuan Temple approve?
But in Li Moyang’s opinion, those monks of the Mizar Temple were stubborn and unrepentant. Now that the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions had grown up, if the Kaiyuan Temple accepted it, then the Buddhist Sect in the Western Regions would definitely give the Kaiyuan Temple a lot of support.
Fortunately, the monks of the Mizar Temple were good and did not admit it. Otherwise, the land of the Jizhou would have been under the control of the Mizar Temple.
Li Moyang left Celestial Sovereign’s Yang Ji’s residence and walked along the way as he thought about many things. Unknowingly, they had arrived outside the encampment of the Red Cloud Valley. The people of the Red Cloud Valley were not inside, but rather, they had circled a large area outside the Yancheng and built a camp.
It was rumored that Li Moyang was the leader of the four sects’ three Monarchs. When he walked outside the Red Cloud Valley’s encampment, the people from the Red Cloud Valley had already noticed him. Valley Master Fang Hongyun personally came out to welcome him, with a very senior attitude. Originally, Li Moyang did not plan to enter, but after seeing Fang Hongyun, his thoughts moved, and he chuckled as he followed him into the encampment.
“It’s been a hundred years since we last met.”
How could Li Moyang be willing to accept that? After sitting down at the guest seat, he said, “Yes, and in the blink of an eye, a hundred years have passed. I still remember when you invited me to eat the four-cheek bass. I can’t forget that. ”
He said with some regret: “It’s not like I can bother you. The four-cheek bass is a specialty of your Red Cloud Valley.”
Fang Hongyun said: “Isn’t that simple? We can eat it now.”
Li Moyang asked: “What, the Valley Master even brought bass?”
Fang Hongyun said: “The four-headed perch, must eat the freshest, the journey is long, and the four-headed perch can only survive in my Red Cloud Valley’s Perch Pond, if I leave the pond, I will die within a few minutes, death won’t taste anything at all.”
He raised his hand and drew a pentagram magic circle on the ground. It was very small. Red light flashed on the tip of his fingers, and the power of space could be vaguely seen flowing around it. He drew this spell formation on the ground in front of him, which was about half a meter long. Moments later, the red light in the nexus dissipated, turning into a small sparkling pool of water. Then he put his hand into the pool and fumbled for a while, and soon he was holding a six-and-seven-pound four-nosed perch.
“Take it and do it.”
He tossed the four cheeks of the perch to his men, and with a sweep of his hand, the spell formation on the ground disappeared.
“Afteundred years, Valley Master’s spatial energy has grown even stronger. I, Li, feel ashamed.”
“Mo Yangjun, you must be joking. With my insignificant strength, to be embarrassed in front of Mo Yangjun is really shameful …”
After a moment of silence, he probed, “I don’t know. Mo Yangjun thinks that An Zheng and I from the Heavenly Awakening Sect are slightly stronger?”
Li Moyang originally wanted to say that the Valley Master was obviously stronger, but with a quick thought, he replied with a smile: “This An Zheng has a mysterious background, his methods are ruthless and decisive, his way of doing things is really giving peopleadache. He first killed Ning Xiaolou, then the Nine Saints. Although I have never met him, and do not know his level, judging from this, he should be even stronger than you and me by a bit. ”
Fang Hongyun’s expression changed slightly, and then she laughed awkwardly, “Then, what does Mo Yangjun think about this person replacing Ning Xiaolou in summoning the Martial Arts Conference?”
“It’s obvious.”
Li Moyang sighed: “This person, his scheme is really big ah. I guess his goal this time is not simple, he might be going to be number one in the Jizhou. ”
“Bah!”
Fang Hongyun stood up abruptly. “Is she even worthy of that?! If you, Mo Yangjun were to come forward, I would not dare to refute you and would definitely admit it. But on what basis does she, Fang Zheng deserve? ”
Li Moyang pressed his hands down, “Sit down, sit down. An Zheng did not follow the rules, so naturally he would not let him go easily. But, he won’t let us off so easily either. ”
“Could it be that he thinks he can defeat the five of us?”
“What if?”
Li Moyang sighed: “With his strength, if he were to attack one aime, it wouldn’t be difficult at all.”
“Those five people, join forces!”
Fang Hongyun stood up again, “If someone on my side is willing to listen to Mo Yangjun’s commands, then I will make sure to keep my word. If Mo Yangjun is willing to be the leader, I will be the first to follow him and not go back on my words!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Moyang had not had the time to make her position known. Two people walked out from the room. They were none other than Dongting Jun, Le Shang Xiao and the Swordlock Pavilion’s Pavilion Master Tie Kuangran. They all cupped their fists together and said, “We are also willing to follow the lead of Mo Yangjun.”
Li Moyang stood up, his eyes filled with uncontrollable joy.
