Chapter 1499: Like a Deep Sea
As soon as Zhuge Juncai entered the door, he burst into tears and burst into tears.
I cried until my heart was broken, and I cried until my heart was broken.
Lord Jiang was crying until he was speechless.
Wei Bofang was crying so much that he couldn't stand it any longer, so he stepped forward and said, "Okay, okay, the master of the palace has so many things to do, how can he have time to listen to you blabbering here?"
Wei Bofang was more affectionate than Zhuge Jun in private, but in front of others, he was more "upright" than anyone else.
A completely honest minister.
Zhuge Jun ignored him at all, and just continued to look at Jiang Wang with tears in his eyes, saying with aggrieved words: "Master of the Palace, why didn't you find your subordinates first when you came back? You must know that your subordinates were the first people to be loyal to you. , everything I have is given by the Palace Master, and I am willing to sacrifice everything for the Palace Master, even if I live or die! Who in the entire Lingkong Palace can match my loyalty to you?"
"Zhuge Jun, what do you mean by this?" Wei Bofang was very dissatisfied: "Is my loyalty to the palace master even less than yours?"
Seeing that the two big guys were about to start competing for favor, Master Jiang immediately said: "I know your loyalty. I also see everything you do."
He calmly pulled out his legs: "I came here this time, firstly, to see you, and secondly, to fulfill my original promise and deal with the troubles that you can't deal with during the development of the sect."
His eyes swept over the two of them and emphasized: "I have other things to be busy with, and my time is very limited."
Zhuge Jun stopped crying immediately. Kneeling on the ground, he looked at Wei Bofang and quickly exchanged glances.
Finally, Wei Bofang spoke: "As for the trouble that cannot be dealt with, it is the matter of the Wusheng Sect. They are developing too fast! We only started to notice this sect in July last year, and this year it has already rivaled ours. , even surpassed us. We invited a strong person to serve as the guardian with great gifts, bribed the officials generously, and asked the city lord's palace to change the relationship, so we barely maintained the status quo... The subordinate is incompetent, and we still ask the palace lord to punish him! "
"Who is in charge here? How strong is it?" Jiang Wang asked casually.
Zhuge Jun replied: "The leader of the Wusheng Cult is a figure named the Messenger of the Earthly Netherworld... The five palaces are perfect and he has magical powers. His subordinates really can't compete with him."
Zhang Linchuan is really ambitious, which can be seen from the positions of these seventy-two evil envoys. Not to mention the strength, this structure is built for the top forces. Back then, there were only three elders and twelve bone faces in the White Bone Path!
However, if you calculate it carefully, without considering the White Bone Evil God, today's Wusheng Sect is indeed much more powerful than the original White Bone Dao.
The three elders of the White Bone Dao at the time were probably no match for the current Zhang Linchuan. Moreover, I heard from Wang Changji earlier that Lu Yan, who betrayed the Bone Evil God, had also become a god with his natural dark eyes.
In addition to the seventy-two Earthly Envoys that have surfaced now...are there still thirty-six Heavenly Envoys going up?
The strength of the entire Wu Sheng Sect has completely surpassed the original White Bone Way.
Of course, this is because the Bone Evil God only wants to be successfully reincarnated into the world and does not care about the sect, but Zhang Linchuan's ability can still be seen clearly.
How long has the Wusheng Sect been established from the fall of the White Bone Path to today?
From the Yong State to the Cheng State, and then to the Jiao State that had just been cleared by Wang Changji, Zhang Linchuan's layout can be seen almost everywhere. Although most of them are developed in some small countries, the hidden power cannot be underestimated.
Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun were able to develop the Lingkong Palace in a decent way. Of course they were talented people, but after all, their vision was limited and they could only see a third of an acre of Chengguo.
They thought that the Diyou messenger was the leader of the Wusheng Cult, but they didn't know that the power of the Wusheng Cult was not limited to one country.
Moreover, any earth evil messenger actually has magical powers?
Is it that easy to have magical powers?
Is it that the Diyou envoy who presides over Chengguo's affairs is particularly powerful, or is there another reason?
"I understand." Jiang Wang said calmly: "What else?"
Zhuge Jun sighed: "It's easy to invite gods but hard to send them away!"
…
…
Taoist Baina was a famous lone monk in Chengguo. He opened four mansions and found a magical power.
The magical monk is not a big cabbage.
He has been in the country's spiritual practice world for more than ten years. He is famous and is a very important figure.
He was invited by Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun with a lot of money to help fight against the Wu Sheng Cult.
It was fine at first, just doing things with the offerings.
But as time went by, Zhuge Jun was no longer good at the second palace, Wei Bofang was old and decrepit, and the four major ministers were all ordinary inner palaces, and they did not gain magical powers. Taoist Baina inevitably had some thoughts and wanted to occupy the magpie's nest.
On the one hand, Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun had to rely on Taoist Bai Nie to fight against the Wusheng Sect. On the other hand, within the sect, it was gradually difficult to separate from Taoist Bai Nie.
In the world of cultivation, strength is respected after all!
On this day, Wei Bofang suddenly summoned the senior officials above the leader of Lingkong Hall, saying that there was a major announcement.
All the nine hall masters and four major worshipers are present.
After the only two elders, Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun, also sat down, Taoist Baina arrived belatedly.
He swaggered in from the entrance of the palace and said in a casual tone: "Old Wei, what are you going to announce today? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Hahahaha, are you planning to elect me as the master of the palace as a surprise?"
Wei Bofang sat in the position of the chief elder on the left and said with a serious smile, "Your joke is not funny at all."
The position of the second elder is opposite him.
The position of the only protector in Lingkong Temple is on his left side. It can be said that in the entire Lingkong Palace, he is second only to the elders. Unfortunately, people are dissatisfied and their desires are hard to satisfy.
In this meeting hall, the position of the head of the palace has been vacant for a long time. As we all know, it belongs to a person with the surname Dugu who has a strong background. Unfortunately, that person has not appeared again for a long time.
If the tiger skin is pulled for a long time, it will be obvious that it is not a tiger.
All kinds of thoughts arise.
Taoist Baina curled his lips and pointed unceremoniously at the seat that represented the master of Lingkong Hall: "Then tell me, how long will this seat be vacant? Who are you waiting for?! That so-and-so Dugu Where was he when you came to see me? Where was he when I fought through life and death for the sect and the masters of Wusheng Cult? "
"Maybe he's dead a long time ago!" He waved his hand and made a downward motion, and his momentum suddenly became fierce: "Maybe, it was just a lie you weaved!"
Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun suddenly summoned all high-level officials to discuss the matter. Several high-level officials who had secretly taken refuge with him did not get any information in advance.
He instinctively felt something was wrong. Now directly announcing the ambitions in my heart to the public is not only a kind of temptation, but also a way to show the horse and horse, so that others can watch and take sides.
He just wants to be the master of this Lingkong Temple, and he is too lazy to nibble on it. No matter what plans Wei Bofang and the others have, in the end they have to use hard power to speak for themselves!
Surprisingly.
Faced with such strong questioning from Taoist Bai Nie.
Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun didn't even speak.
And da, da, da—
The sound of boots hitting the ground clearly sounded in the hall.
A figure wearing a cloak and sackcloth came out from the apse.
There is no overbearing aura, and he just looks comfortable and gentle when walking.
Taoist Baina frowned and glanced at it, then said to Wei Bofang: "Where did this lonely ghost come from? Why is it that in the important place of our sect, where high-level discussions are held, anyone can come in?"
"Look at me."
He only heard a voice say this.
This voice is calm, clear, and has an unquestionable power.
He subconsciously moved his gaze to see who this person was and what he wanted to do.
He only saw a frosty sword light!
Canglanglang!
There seemed to be the sound of a long sword being unsheathed.
He seemed to hear it, but maybe he missed it.
His world became brighter and darker at this moment.
It never lit up again.
In the sight of everyone in the venue, they could only see Taoist Bai Nie's neck. Suddenly a blood line opened, and blood beads burst out like a fountain, opening a short fan shape in the air.
Blood drops fell.
The man fell down suddenly.
But the figure wearing a cloak and linen clothes just walked forward on his own, and Shi Shiran walked towards the position that represented the master of Lingkong Hall.
His hand was still a few inches away from the hilt of the sword, and the sword at his waist seemed to have never been drawn.
That cold light seemed to exist only in an illusion.
The whole hall fell into dead silence.
No one among the senior officials of Lingkong Hall, including Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun, who were sitting on both sides of the main hall, spoke.
A well-known supernatural monk died simply.
Not even a scream.
Unspeakably shocking!
At this moment, only on the main road in the middle of the hall, the body of Taoist Baina lay quietly there, opposite the big chair on the high platform.
Jiang Wang walked to the throne of the master of Lingkong Hall, but did not sit down. Just turn around and be condescending.
Compared with the places he had seen before, the halls of Lingkong Temple were definitely not gorgeous.
But this is his territory.
One of his hands controls the eight handles here, namely Jue, Lu, Destruction, Placement, Killing, Life, Giving, and Seizing.
Wherever his gaze went, no one dared to look directly at him.
It's easy to get lost in this condescending majesty. Of course, for Jiang Wang, who had met the Emperor of Qi many times, the little power he had in front of him was too meager.
The so-called life and death is nothing to worry about in such a weak environment.
He just tried hard to think about how Emperor Qi held the world in his hands and how he combined kindness and power.
After a moment of silence, let the pressure spread in everyone's heart. Then he looked at Zhuge Jun: "Did I forget to ask a question?"
He thought for a moment: "Oh, by the way, does Taoist Bai Nie have any magical powers?"
Zhuge Jun's expression changed greatly, and he immediately left his seat and prostrated himself: "I deserve death! Because the master of the palace is so powerful and my subordinates are so proud of him. I am so arrogant that I did not take Taoist Baina seriously, so much so that I forgot Report his magical power information..."
Jiang Wang raised his hand and stopped his explanation: "Forget it, it's not important anymore."
He never counted on the loyalty of people like Zhuge Jun and Wei Bofang. He himself did not give corresponding trust, because he understood from the beginning that these people could be used but not trusted.
At this moment, he moved his eyes, looked at the high-level officials here, and said slowly: "I am your palace master. I am not fake, and I am not dead."
Zhuge Jun, who was already kneeling on the ground, kowtowed: "I pay my respects to the Palace Master. I wish you great fortune and longevity!"
Wei Bofang also bowed down immediately, his voice was upright and powerful: "Wei Bofang, the chief elder of Lingkong Palace, pays my respects to the Palace Master!"
The seven hall masters and four worshippers present all bowed down.
The only guardian lay on his back among them.
Jiang Wang raised his hand: "Get up, everyone."
His eyes were not aggressive, and fell gently on everyone.
"I won't come to the sect often, but I will keep an eye on this place. Lingkong Palace is probably not a very powerful sect, and its future is hard to predict, but I hope it will be your best choice. We may have met before, or maybe not... I hope we can meet again in the future."
He only said a few words, then waved his hand: "Okay, everyone go down, Elder Wei and Elder Zhuge stay."
"Master Palace Master, I have something to say!" Wei Bofang said in a loyal manner: "It is not appropriate to end the meeting now. Among these people present, Someone secretly colluded with the Taoist Bai Na, and has long lost his loyalty to you, the Lord of the Palace, and has no sense of belonging to the Lingkong Palace. I am deeply saddened and can hardly bear to speak, but I have to pull them out to serve as a warning to others! "
Jiang Wang looked at him calmly: "This kind of thing, you can't talk nonsense without evidence."
"Since I dare to report to the Lord of the Palace, I must have the evidence! Please allow me to present it. "
Wei Bofang turned his head and said to the outside of the palace: "Carry it in!"
Immediately, two strong men walked into the palace carrying a large box.
"Just now, I have had people raid the Taoist Bai Na's house. The bribes he received and the evidence of his collusion with others..." Wei Bofang pointed to the box and said: "It's all in it!"
Several people on the scene immediately changed their faces and could hardly stand. But no one dared to take the risk.
How the strongest Taoist Bai Na in Lingkong Palace died, they saw it clearly!
There was no room for struggle!
Jiang Wang glanced at the box and just smiled: "So many."
His eyes focused slightly, and the whole box was instantly ablaze! Soon there was no more ashes, it was burned clean.
Wei Bofang was a little out of control: "Master, this..."
Jiang Wang raised his hand to stop him: "No need to say it. Everyone makes mistakes, everyone makes mistakes."
His meaningful eyes penetrated the cloak and fell on Wei Bofang's face: "And I am often willing to give my friends a chance."
He didn't care what Wei Bofang thought.
He walked down the platform and walked in front of a worshiper whose heartbeat was very fast just now, but whose expression was very relaxed.
"What's your name?"
The heart of the worshiper almost exploded, but he spoke clearly: "I am Liu Meng."
Jiang Wang only nodded slightly, and then said: "Elder Wei and Elder Zhuge are busy with many things, and they are too busy to do anything. Lingkong Hall should have three elders, so that they can share some of the burden."
As he said, he reached out and patted the worshiper on the shoulder: "I think you are very suitable to be the third elder."
Liu Meng's whole body was limp at this moment. He couldn't tell whether it was fear or surprise. He just knelt down and said earnestly: "Thank you for your appreciation!"
Jiang Wang didn't comment, and said again: "Others go down, the three elders stay."
Soon the hall was empty.
Jiang Wang turned his back to the three people, and his tone was still calm: "I am very tight on time, so I will only say it once."
He raised three fingers, and then put them down one by one.
"First, I will deal with the Diyou messenger tonight."
"Second, you don't need to rush to wipe out the Wusheng Sect. While they are leaderless, find a way to arrange some people to go in and find out what they want to do. The action must be concealed. The next time I contact you, I need to know the answer. The more information you get and the more important it is, the more rewards you will get. Yuanshi, skills, none of them are a problem."
"As for the third... I have a question for Elder Wei and Elder Zhuge. I remember that before you, Lingkong Hall originally had a great elder. How is he now?"
Wei Bofang and Zhuge Jun looked at each other and could see each other's nervousness.
Finally, Wei Bofang said: "Elder Song... He died heroically for the cause of the sect!"
Jiang Wang just smiled: "Then you must take care of yourself. See you next time."
Then he walked out of the hall alone.
The three elders of Lingkong Hall stood quietly in the empty hall.
Watching the back of the cloaked hemp clothes go against the light.
I just felt...
It was like an abyss or an ocean, unfathomable.
