Chapter 1264 Welcome

Zhao Cheng only brought a few generals and a hundred elite cavalrymen with him. He traveled light and simple. From Wucheng to Tianjue Pass, there were both big roads and small roads. The narrowest place was only wide enough for two horses to run side by side. It was difficult to travel fast, but even so, Zhao Cheng and his party only took ten days to reach their destination.

In the distance, a huge city appeared in front of everyone, and the road gradually widened.

After traveling for more than half an hour, they saw a group of people waiting on the road ahead.

The leader was a middle-aged man with a white face and long beard. He looked dignified and majestic. He led the horse. He looked like a mountain when he stood there. It seemed that the impact of snow, rain, wind and frost could not wear him down at all.

Later, two people who were also leading horses looked older than middle-aged people, but the murderous aura between their gestures was earth-shaking, with a sense of thunder and lightning.

The leader of these three people was Huang Tiandao, or General Tiangong.

The last two were General Digong and General Rengong.

Further back, on the left were a group of counselors under Huang Tiandao, led by the great talent Li Tonghai, and on the right were a group of young Taoists led by Huang Qi.

When Zhao Cheng left the Southern Wilderness, Huang Tiandao led the crowd to welcome him in person. Such courtesy was unprecedented.

In fact, before coming, someone persuaded Huang Tiandao that he was the master and Zhao Cheng was the minister. How could the master go so far to welcome the minister in person? Being able to welcome him at the city gate was already a great courtesy, enough to be cited as a good story.

What's more, the two of them are originally master and apprentice. Although they are not direct disciples, they have such a name. It is even more inappropriate to welcome the apprentice as a master.

But Huang Tiandao said with a smile that the two of them are not the master and the servant, but belong to Huang Tian. Under the entanglement of cause and effect, they gather together only to achieve Huang Tian's great cause. Their own road is about to come to an end. Now it is the right time. It doesn't matter if I succeed. There is no reason to take advantage of my age.

This group of people, led by Huang Tiandao, have been waiting for more than half an hour in this place 20 miles away from the city, but no one is impatient at all.

If Zhao Cheng had not made any achievements, or if he had not taken Wucheng, it would definitely not have this effect.

But now, gathering the remnants of the defeated army and taking Wucheng with 5,000 armors, such deeds are no longer legends, but myths!

Unprecedented!

In this case, no one will be impatient, but other various emotions.

Especially when they saw a group of people approaching from a distance and vaguely saw their outlines, the emotions in everyone's hearts gradually became agitated.

Many veterans, seeing the mighty young man on the tall horse, could not help but think of their past glorious years. At that time, Huang Tian had just appeared. They also relied on their dissatisfaction with the world and their passion to raise long spears, ride fierce horses, and fight with swords and weapons to create a world.

Especially when they returned victoriously, this moment was exactly the same as that moment.

But in the blink of an eye, they were defeated and their ambitions were in vain.

As for giving up, those children of the aristocratic families who joined Huang Tiandao halfway gave up early, and even fought back at the critical moment, and got the reputation of bearing humiliation.

Only these people, who were born in humble circumstances and few of them had read books, knew what loyalty was, but never betrayed.

Now, the old scene reappears, and some people think that the five thousand armored soldiers who took Wucheng, which was already doomed to fail, now seem to have turned around. Unconsciously, their eyes are a little wet.

Compared with the veterans, the Taoist group headed by Huang Qi is more indifferent. Huang Qi saw the mighty figure riding a horse and just thought of his past. At that time, he seemed to be like this, galloping on the battlefield, defeating the army and killing the generals, and returning triumphantly.

But when the situation suddenly changed, this kind of thing has not happened for a long time.

Except for Huang Qi, the remaining Taoists also have different feelings. Some of them are somewhat familiar with Zhao Cheng. Although they have known the news for a long time, they still feel that the matter is unreal.

To count, they can be said to be classmates, with a master, learning the same things, and the subsequent achievements are also the same starting point. They have made achievements in the army. Even until last summer, their experiences are not much different.

Some classmates died in the battlefield, and those who did not die were either general flags or lieutenants, with low official positions, but not low either.

After all, the basic qualities of a Taoist are there.

Once you enter the Tao and transform into a Taoist seed, your qualities in all aspects will surpass those of ordinary people, and only some people with extraordinary talents can suppress a Taoist.

If Zhao Cheng had just risen steadily, they might have envied and envied him, but now, after gathering people in Lianshan and seizing Wucheng, General Yingtian has made a great reputation. With such a huge gap, it is difficult for people to even feel envious and jealous.

What's more, now they all know that Taoist Huangtian wants to hand over his foundation to the other party.

At that time, the other party will be the master and they will be the ministers. The status will be certain, and the gap will be even greater.

When he was about fifty steps away, Zhao Cheng had dismounted and walked on foot, holding the horse rope, and the hundred riders behind him did the same.

Different from Zhao Cheng's calmness, the hundred riders behind him were now extremely emotional and trembling with excitement.

They were a defeated army, who had to hide in the mountains and forests to survive after being defeated. But now, they have returned with a great victory. Even Huang Tiandao went out of the city to welcome them. This was unimaginable before.

"Teacher."

"I said before that I would not return until Wucheng was taken. Now Wucheng has been taken, so I am back!"

When he arrived in front of Huang Tiandao, Zhao Cheng bowed.

Although his realm of merit was far superior to Huang Tiandao, this Taoist's body had the cause and effect of master and disciple. This life and that body were one and the same, so there was no problem for the Taoist to call him master.

If it was not the Taoist's body, but his original body, this teacher would probably be enough to make Huang Tiandao die on the spot.

If virtue is not worthy of position, there will be endless disasters when the cause and effect are involved.

As for heaven and earth, in Zhao Cheng's opinion, perhaps only by achieving Yuanshi can the influence of cause and effect be completely abandoned.

Otherwise, the so-called non-causality is just a false proposition. As long as you exist in the world for one day, even if you do nothing, your existence itself is a cause, which will eventually become a result.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Huang Tiandao laughed loudly when he heard this, and said three good words in a row.
