If Yang Lu's inference is correct, then what happens next is like a reversal of what happened in the past.
The three ascended immortals who set out from the Kyushu Cultivation World used the legacy that the ancient Spirit Clan civilization brought to the Kyushu Cultivation World to bring civilization back to the remnants of the ancient Spirit Clan in the Wilderness Territory, and established a new way of heaven for them.
Emperor Manghuang Wu was originally a relic and witness of ancient civilization, so naturally he would not stand up against these ascended immortals who had inherited the legacy of ancient spiritual civilization...
Up to this point, this inference can explain almost all the problems Yang Lu found.
However, the whole set of inferences has several serious problems. The biggest one is the ascended immortal Lu Yang who came to the wilderness, because this person is by no means a descendant of the ancient spiritual civilization, but an earthly person who speaks Chinese seriously.
Fellow fellow!
Every time his reasoning reaches this point, Yang Lu feels extremely depressed.
Obviously he felt that his reasoning was perfect, but there was a problem in the key place, turning all previous reasoning into a joke. This kind of frustration was really unpleasant.
However, Yang Lu really couldn't think of other possibilities. He could only hope that President Lu Yang's legacy, or Mo Yunlan and Tian Daxiao could provide him with additional clues...
Seeing that Yang Lu had no new problems, Wang Ziwei was ready to take his ancestors to say goodbye.
Although there should be no clues found in Qishan Prison for the time being, this matter involves most of the overlord-level sects in Kyushu, and there may be some changes. Wang Ziwei should have his own intelligence network, and he also needs to track the seven major sects in time.
The latest developments of the factions to deal with possible investigations initiated by the seven major factions.
Before leaving, Yang Lu also asked the other party how the two parties should contact each other in the future.
However, Wang Ziwei said that when they waited for the right time, they would naturally contact Yang Lu. After all, Yang Lu's identity was on the surface, and they could secretly visit him at any time to establish contact. If Yang Lu wanted to contact Wang Ziwei urgently, he could
Through the channel of Xu Yannan in Haiya City.
As both disciples of Li Qingyang, it is obvious that the relationship between Xu Yannan and Wang Ziwei is not as simple as it seems on the surface.
After Wang Ziwei was sent away, only Yang Lu and Ming Zhu were left in this uninhabited snowfield. Seeing that Ming Zhu's face was filled with confusion and he had no intention of speaking on his own initiative, Yang Lu took the lead and asked: "Senior, what are you doing?
Is there anywhere to go?"
Mingzhu laughed at himself: "When I served as the deacon of the Wuliang Sword Sect in the foundation-building period, I still had some bad friends. Unfortunately, hundreds of years have passed, and those old friends have long since turned into loess. After I became the puppet of the Ascension Immortal, I beat him
Most of the people I interact with want to get rid of me quickly, and I don’t have anywhere to go!”
Yang Lu raised his eyebrows: "But you don't seem worried!"
Mingzhu chuckled: "What do I need to worry about? I am a dignified Yuanying Stage monk. Even the Supreme Elders of the seven major sects, there are not many who can beat me. As long as I don't want to be caught, I will
No one can catch me!"
"Then how did you end up in Qishan Prison in the first place?"
Hearing this, Mingzhu's face suddenly became a little worried: "Can the sneak attack be called an arrest? Back then, I was a serious law enforcement elder of the Wuliang Sword Sect. Who knew that Lin Jianxing and Mo Yunlan would team up to sneak attack me without respecting martial ethics?
?What’s more, I hadn’t cultivated to the Nascent Soul realm back then, otherwise they wouldn’t have been able to catch me even if it was a sneak attack!”
Seeing that Ming Zhu's tone was displeased, Yang Lu immediately changed the subject and said, "Otherwise, you could consider coming to our Haiya City to sit there?"
Ancestor Mingzhu didn't even think about it and immediately agreed: "Okay!"
Seeing that the other party was so happy, Yang Lu became a little confused: "You really don't worry about me, old man!"
"Haha, it's not like I've never been to Haiya City. I think Chen Kui, the ancestor of the Chen family in Haiya City, was still..."
Mentioning the ancestor of the Chen family in Haiya City, Mingzhu seemed to think of some very unbearable past events, and suddenly changed the topic very bluntly: "Forget it, the past is in the past, so don't mention what happened back then!
All you need to know is that I served as the special trade representative of Wuliangjian sent to Haiya City. I even received a special award from the branch of Wuliangjian for cracking down on the cross-border smuggling of spirit stone coupons in Haiya City...
"
Hearing this, Yang Lu couldn't help but wonder: "As far as I know, the biggest smuggler in Haiya City is the Haiya faction himself!"
Mingzhu obviously didn't know the special relationship between Yang Lu and the Haiya Sect, and said bluntly: "Yes, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce is suspected of smuggling. This is almost an open secret in the cultivation world. However, they are also engaged in smuggling business, and the big players with backstage only
They will be called ocean trading giants, and goblins without backing will be called illegal smugglers. Naturally, I will attack those unlucky ones without backing, like that Chen Kui."
Chen Kui, the ancestor of the Chen family, is now the founder of the Chen family Chamber of Commerce in Haiya City. Even Yang Lu never expected that Mingzhu actually had such a deep connection with Haiya City. Not only did he know his ancestor Chen Ping,
, and even served as the special trade representative of Haiya City that Lu Anping and Yang Chenglong both served.
It's just that Mingzhu seemed to have the attribute of "100% offending the people around him" back then, and his relationship with Chen Kui, the ancestor of the Chen family, was obviously not very happy.
Seeing that Yang Lu didn't say anything for a long time, Mingzhu continued to show off: "I can tell you clearly that no one in the entire Wuliang Sword Sect knows the details of the gang of profiteers in Haiya City better than me! I even know that the Haiya Sect
I also hired overseas formation masters to build a mountain-protecting formation that exceeded the standard without telling the Wuliang Sword Sect. In order to keep my mouth shut, Haiya City Lord Han Chaohui personally gave me a huge amount of hush money.
This is a huge handle, and it would be very easy for me to use this to manipulate them!"
Mingzhu's original intention was to show off his close relationship with the Haiya Sect, but he didn't know that the Haiya Sect today is completely different from what it was two hundred years ago.
Yang Lu showed an awkward but polite smile and patiently explained: "Senior Ming is unaware of something. The existence of this great formation has been known to the Wuliang Sword Sect. Not only that, as early as two hundred years ago, Haiya
The city lord has already been replaced. The current lord of Haiya City is the head of Jiang Hua'an Jiang. This man is over 500 years old this year. You must have dealt with him in the past."
Mingzhu was slightly startled: "Of course I know Jiang Hua'an! When he attended the Immortal Ascension Conference five hundred years ago, I personally hosted it on behalf of the Wuliang Sword Sect. However, City Lord Han is not much older than Jiang Hua'an, and his cultivation qualifications are better than Jiang Hua'an's.
Even better, you can practice to the late stage of Golden elixir without any problem. How could you two hundred years ago——"
Two hundred years ago, the sudden disappearance of the former city lord of Haiya City and the old head of the Han family, Han Zhaohui, was a turning point for the Han family in Haiya City from prosperity to decline. It was also a case that has not been concluded in Haiya City for hundreds of years.
Eucalyptus. It is precisely because of the sudden disappearance of the most important pillar of the Han family that the high-level cultivators of the Han family have been in decline. This has made the Han family become the last of the four major families in Haiya in recent years.
The biggest beneficiary of Han Chaohui's disappearance was undoubtedly Jiang Hua'an, the deputy city lord of Haiya City at the time. There were also secret rumors circulating that "Jiang Hua'an murdered Han Chaohui in order to seize the position of city lord." However, the other three major families could never find a handle on Jiang Hua'an.
, which finally brought the matter to an end.
After learning about Jiang Hua'an's special relationship with Tinghe Yuge and foreign forces, Yang Lu had serious doubts. This rumor was not just a joke, it was probably the historical truth!
It's just that Yang Lu couldn't explain these things clearly to Mingzhu, who had been out of touch with society for two hundred years, and could only put on a helpless expression of "that's the truth anyway".
Realizing that she had no acquaintances in her hometown of Haiya City, Mingzhu couldn't help but feel sad even though she was mentally prepared.
However, in front of Yang Lu, Mingzhu still forced himself to reply casually: "It doesn't matter even if the lord of Haiya City changes. After all, I already know the strongest hidden card in Haiya City. Although that set of protective gear
The power of the Shanda Formation is pretty good, but it is far inferior to the Great Senluo Wanxiang Sword Formation, and there is no room for Nascent Soul cultivators!"
Yang Lu did not dwell on this embarrassing topic for Mingzhu, and changed the subject: "The Chen family of Haiya City you just mentioned is also our important business ally. However, according to the official statement of the Chen Family Chamber of Commerce, their ancestors
Chen Kui is clearly a legendary businessman with unique vision, how come he turned into a smuggler when you mentioned him?"
Legendary businessman?
Upon hearing this title, Mingzhu was obviously stunned for a moment.
But he soon came back to his senses.
Under Yang Lu's shocked gaze, Mingzhu became furious on the spot and said emotionally: "Fart! If it weren't for that Chen Kui, I-"
As if he thought of something unspeakable, Mingzhu hesitated for a long time without saying a complete sentence, but he finally made up his mind and explained reluctantly: "Okay! I can tell you this."
No problem! You should know that in the era when Bo Nanke was in charge of the Wuliang Sword Sect, the spirit stone coupons issued by the major states were not exchangeable with each other, but the demand among the people for the exchange of such spirit stone coupons was very strong, which gave birth to
The smuggling business of spiritual stone certificates is rampant in Haiya City, and Chen Kui was one of the smugglers who was captured and brought back to prison by me back then, and all he did was beheadings!"
"Since this person has already stolen the goods, how did he later transform into a business legend in Haiya City?"
"I haven't finished talking yet! After I caught him, I didn't kill him immediately. Instead, I developed him into my informant, fishing and enforcing the law for me, and arresting more smugglers. But later, things changed.
Suddenly, the credit of Zhongzhou Lingshi Vouchers suddenly collapsed, and those of us disciples of the Wuliang Sword Sect who had accumulated a large number of Lingshi Vouchers were also deeply affected. At this time of crisis, in order to prevent the Zhongzhou Lingshi Vouchers in my hands from turning into waste paper, I
I gritted my teeth and sold these spirit stone coupons to Chen Kui at a 10% discount, asking him to sell them overseas for me. Unexpectedly, the Lingshi Reserve Bank announced the next day that it would take full advantage of the spirit stone coupons, and the price of these Zhongzhou spirit stone coupons instantly
A surge of four times..."
Well, this is indeed a sad story.
It turns out that the first pot of gold from the Chen Family Chamber of Commerce, a wealthy family in Haiya City, was actually the life savings of ancestor Mingzhu. However, since the ancestor of the Chen family has been reduced to a smuggler, he is obviously not a goblin with a backing.
The internal information channels of the Wuliang Sword Sect cannot be more informed than Ming Zhu, the deacon of the inner sect of the Wuliang Sword Sect.
No wonder Mingzhu had always insisted that it was the Lingshi Reserve Bank that changed its orders day and night, which led to the old man losing all his money.
Now it seems that this accusation is not a slander!
After learning that the ancestor Mingzhu had such a deep connection with Haiya City, Yang Lu also understood why he returned to Haiya City with him.
Even though Mingzhu’s ancestor’s old friendship with Haiya City has long since faded over the past five hundred years, even the now powerful Lord of Haiya City, Jiang Hua’an, did not even show his face back then, and Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe were not even born.
But the cities in the world of cultivation are like living fossils, and their appearance hardly changes for hundreds of years.
Since Patriarch Mingzhu once served as the special trade representative stationed in Haiya City for a long time, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is half a fellow from Haiya, and he knows the details of the Haiya sect's grand formation, which proves from the side that he is closely related to Haiya.
Sea Cliff City's unusual relationship.
You must know that when Lin Jianxing came to Haiya City in person, Jiang Huaan relied on that formation to maintain a stalemate with Lin Jianxing for a long time before Tian Daxiao, the head of the Shenhuo Sect, came to support him. Even Lin Jianxing at that time was obviously protected by this set of formations.
The power of the Shanda Formation was shocking, but Ancestor Mingzhu had known about the existence of this formation a long time ago...
Although Mingzhu's tone was very pretentious, he actually did not completely hide his emotions.
Seeing that although Ming Zhu's appearance was still young, his eyes flashed from time to time with the lonely look that only an old man has in his old age. Yang Lu couldn't help but think of the look that Li Qingyang showed briefly before his death.
The deceased is like a man who never gives up day and night.
This may be the unique feeling of high-level monks in Kyushu!
And returning to the familiar Haiya City is the best destination for Mingzhu, an "ancient man" who has been isolated from the world for two hundred years and has no relatives or friends alive!
However, Yang Lu's emotion only lasted for a moment.
Considering that Mingzhu and he have common interests, and the two parties have already sworn to Tiandao and reached cooperation, his return to Haiya City will also be of great benefit to Yang Lu's next actions.
After all, the bargaining chip of the Nascent Soul Stage monk is too heavy!
Even if Jiang Hua'an has the entire Tingheyuge Zhongzhou branch behind him and controls the vast and intricate network of the Haiya system, the combined weight of these chips may not be worth a single Mingzhu.
When the two parties meet again, the master-slave relationship between the Haiya Clan and the Qingning Chamber of Commerce may have undergone earth-shaking changes!
Seeing that Mingzhu was already immersed in long memories, Yang Lu did not interrupt him. When the other party slowly recovered, Yang Lu reached out and pointed towards the distant skyline: "It is not suitable to stay here for a long time! Since the senior has made the decision
Decided, let’s set off now. Now the Sixth Sect in the Far North is probably as anxious as ants on a hot pot, so we have to avoid the limelight first!”
