Chapter 8 Lobbyists
After bidding farewell to the countless thanks from their parents and declining the gifts of thanks, the two returned to Yuan Wuxing's small courtyard.
I see that you are quite eloquent when facing me. Why don't you stop talking when you get to the hall? Maybe City Master Zeng didn't notice you at all.
Yuan Wuxing scratched his head and chuckled: I am timid. I have never seen such a scene, so my head was a little confused for a moment.
Jiang Li laughed dumbly: You, you spent ten years investigating this behemoth of the Jiang family, and you still persisted despite knowing that there was little hope. If someone says that you are weak-minded, they must be blind, but you are timid at the critical moment. Today in The Jiang family is like this, it's like this in the hall, and it's the same way when you tried to break through the Nascent Soul. Our Dao Sect pays attention to the cultivation of both nature and life, but now you are only cultivating your nature, not your life.
Yuan's five elements were like being struck by lightning.
Indeed, as Jiang Li said, he always hesitated when he broke through the Nascent Soul. His thoughts were as noisy as the sea water. He thought that he was still young anyway, so why risk his body and soul to break through? If he had a hundred years of freedom, he would break through again. Isn't it good? What's the use of breaking through the Yuanying? There are gods above the Yuanying. When will the cultivation end? So many people have failed to break through the Yuanying. Why can I succeed? etc. As a result, he was only one step away from breaking through to Nascent Soul several times, but always ended in failure.
Thank you, senior, for your teaching. Yuan Wuxing bowed respectfully to Jiang Li. Jiang Li just smiled and said nothing.
Yuan Wuxing thought of something and asked anxiously: Senior Zhang, I suspect that the Jiang family will send people to that space to eliminate evidence. Let's stop it quickly!
I'm just afraid that if they don't go to that space, how could they make things worse? Jiang Li signaled Yuan Wuxing to calm down, but he didn't tell him the reason. Yuan Wuxing really believed Jiang Li's words and calmed down.
Although the two of them had only been together for one day, Yuan Wuxing began to trust Jiang Li without any reason.
But Mr. Zhang Li and Mr. Yuan Wuxing? There was a knock on the door.
The knock on the door was very soft. After he finished speaking, no one in the room responded, so he didn't repeat it again. He just stood respectfully outside the door. It can be seen that the person was very polite.
Yuan Wuxing opened the door, his hand shook uncontrollably, and he resisted taking action.
I know that I am ashamed of the common people. If I can give me a good beating to relieve Mr. Yuan Wuxing's hatred, I will have no objection.
Patriarch Jiang stood outside the door leaning on a cane, his eyelids drooped and apologetic. With his cultivation at the Golden Core stage, he was meeting an enemy at the peak of the Golden Core and a Nascent Soul peak, but there was no entourage following him.
How could Yuan Wuxing not hate Clan Chief Jiang? If Jiang Yixing was the culprit, then Clan Chief Jiang was the biggest helper. The death of those babies could definitely be blamed on Clan Chief Jiang.
What are you doing here, threatening us?
After all, Yuan Wuxing didn't make a move. He just made a sarcastic comment, sat down on the chair, and drank tea.
He didn't dare to take action. Who knows what tricks this old guy has, and he can do it without causing unnecessary problems.
Unexpectedly, after Chief Jiang entered the house, he threw his crutches aside and knelt directly on the ground. Yuan Wuxing was so startled that he almost lost his grip on the teacup.
Jiang Li looked at Chief Jiang with great interest, wanting to see what tricks this junior could play for him.
Although our ancestors made mistakes, no matter how big their faults are, they are not as big as the Human Emperor. If the news about the Human Emperor's cousin practicing the devil's way spread throughout the Nine Provinces, how will the world feel? It is inevitable that they will feel grudges. If there are more people who want to add fuel to the flames, What a huge impact this will have on the reputation of the Human Emperor!
Beyond Kyushu, there are extraterrestrial demons who are eyeing them. Fortunately, the emperors of the past generations raised the banner of Kyushu and fought against the demons. This enabled Kyushu to survive. The power of the emperor lies in faith. If the human race's belief in the emperor is shaken, the Jiang people will The emperor’s strength will surely decline, how dangerous this is for me, Kyushu!”
I know that you two care about the common people and are righteous people. I, the Jiang family, are just villains in the dark. But our positions are the same when it comes to the demons. I also ask you to think about the billions of living beings in Jiuzhou. Let's forget about it, old man. I would like to thank these two gentlemen in advance!”
After saying that, Chief Jiang kowtowed three times. Three dull sounds were heard, and there was blood on his forehead. When he stood up and looked up, tears were streaming down his face.
Yuan Wuxing was affected by Patriarch Jiang's sincere words and actions, and unconsciously thought that if he didn't let this matter go, it wouldn't be good to have any impact on the Human Emperor.
To take a step back, it doesn't matter if the Human Emperor cultivates the devil's way, it is only to fight against the devil and for the sake of the common people in the world.
Yuan Wuxing was really almost convinced by Patriarch Jiang. After all, what Patriarch Jiang said was reasonable, and what he said about shaking the Human Emperor's faith was possible.
Half of the Human Emperor's strength lies in his own tyrannical strength, and the other half is due to the belief blessing of the Human Emperors of all generations. Multiplying the two makes the Human Emperor's power reach an extremely terrifying level. Although he has not become an immortal, he has Better than an immortal.
The space outside Kyushu is in chaos, and every few hundred years there will be an attack by an extraterrestrial demon, but every time it will bring danger of annihilation to Kyushu, the Human Emperor, as the number one expert in Kyushu, will bear the brunt of fighting the demon, and more than half of the Human Emperors are In this process of death, few people have a good death.
If Jiang Renhuang's decline in faith led to his death in the battle with the demon in the future, then Yuan Wuxing would really feel guilty for the rest of his life.
What Chief Jiang said is reasonable. But since the Jiang family already knew that it might shake people's belief in the Human Emperor, why did they sacrifice the baby's blood?
Chief Jiang said with shame: My ancestors were greedy for the prosperity of the world and wanted to break through the Nascent Soul. After a few more days, who would have thought that one mistake would lead to eternal hatred and it would be difficult to turn back.
Jiang Li was greatly surprised: What are you talking about, Chief Jiang? The Jiang family wants to turn around, how can I not do it?
Patriarch Jiang was delighted. As expected, such self-proclaimed righteous people could not be coerced or induced. They had to be persuaded by their righteousness.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Li continued: Even if Yuan Wuxing and I no longer sue the Jiang family, other monks will come to investigate the matter. I will show the Jiang family the way. The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulate that the dead will not be held accountable. , please also ask Jiang Yixing to correct his mistakes and commit suicide.
The smile on Patriarch Jiang's face was stiff, and he didn't know what to say in rebuttal.
Indeed, as long as the ancestor dies, the matter will be settled, but how is this possible? I am here to act so that you will stop making trouble. How can I act like my ancestor to death!
Mr. Zhang Li was joking.
It's just words from the bottom of my heart.
Patriarch Jiang's face was so gloomy that water could drip from his face. He stood up slowly, no longer showing the same compassionate attitude as before.
It seems that Mr. Zhang Li really wants to put an end to this matter.
Only then did Yuan Wuxing realize that he had been pretending before, and then he felt frightened for a while. This kind of old fox was really scary. He couldn't believe his words or expressions. Fortunately, Senior Zhang Li was here.
It's not about ending, I just like to have a beginning and an end to things. Patriarch Jiang, please.
Chief Jiang snorted coldly, waved his sleeves and left.
