Chapter 204 The title of king this time is absolutely stable
Looking at the sound of the roaring mountains and tsunami below, Ning Chen also put on an arrogant and domineering pose.
"Senior sister, am I doing well as the city lord?" Ning Chen asked Bai Yaoyao in a coquettish tone.
Bai Yaoyao rolled her eyes at Ning Chen: "Don't be too proud, the Western Region won't just let it go."
Ning Chen snorted: "If he doesn't care, what else can he do?
Three of the ten Bodhisattvas died, and the remaining seven were except for the Great Samadhi and Immovable Bodhisattva.
Their bodies have been beaten to pieces, so even if they want to take revenge, they have to be able to spare their hands."
Under such circumstances, it's no wonder Ning Chen is confident.
Bai Yaoyao reminded Ning Chen: "If they want to take revenge on you, they may not necessarily need to take action against you personally. Killing ordinary people has always been one of the choices they can make."
After hearing Bai Yaoyao's words, Ning Chen couldn't help but frown.
Being constantly dealing with these Bodhisattvas made Ning Chen forget that these Bodhisattvas would also attack ordinary people.
Even if they did not take action personally, the Buddhist kingdoms under their rule could still organize effective forces to invade the Wu Dynasty.
My own Baijia City is unbreakable here, but the Wu Dynasty only has two Baijia City.
They can still break through from other places.
Even my own Baijia City is not completely like an iron barrel.
It is impossible for your own Baijia City to be completely closed off, as there will be caravans coming in and out every day.
If some people from the Buddhist Kingdom of the Western Regions were mixed into these caravans, and they killed everyone in the city regardless of their own lives, the consequences would be really unimaginable.
Ning Chen nodded sternly: "Sister, I remind you that you cannot let victory go to your head."
"Senior sister, let's go back to the city lord's mansion first."
Bai Yaoyao shook her head gently: "I won't go to the City Lord's Mansion. I will take Mu Die back to the Zhengqi Great Wall to resume his life."
"Ah, why do you want to go back?" Before Ning Chen could react, Mu Die took the lead in expressing resistance.
"If you don't want to go back, you can tell the Marquis yourself." Bai Yaoyao said to Mu Die lightly.
When he heard that he had to explain to the Marquis, Mu Die immediately fainted.
However, Mu Die kept glancing at Ning Chen, which obviously meant that Ning Chen should speak for her.
When Bai Yaoyao wanted to leave, Ning Chen was of course reluctant to leave.
"Sister, if you leave, who will protect me? I just killed a Bodhisattva, and the Western Region will not let it go."
"If they wait for their second-grade Bodhisattvas to come and kill them, I won't be able to stop them by myself."
Bai Yaoyao is obviously much gentler towards Ning Chen.
"You are now at the third level of martial arts and Confucianism. Even if a second-level Bodhisattva comes here, you will have no problem if you want to protect yourself."
"And I believe you won't choose to confront them head-on, so I'm not worried about your safety at all now."
The previous sentence from Ning Chen can be understood as a compliment and an affirmation of his own strength.
The last sentence seems a bit redundant.
Because it directly exposed Ning Chen’s true nature.
I almost named him by name and said I was cowardly.
"Senior sister, there's no need to be in such a hurry. Wait a few days and I'll take you around Baijia City. There are still many places we haven't been to yet."
Mu Die also helped: "Yes, senior sister, let's wait a few more days..."
Bai Yaoyao's look immediately choked Mu Die's unfinished words back.
Bai Yaoyao said softly: "I don't want to be separated from you, but the Great Wall of Righteousness has become increasingly unstable recently, and it's very stressful to rely on Mr. Hou alone to support it.
If there is any trouble, we can only rely on the lives of the Red Flame Army to deal with it."
Now that Bai Yaoyao has said this, Ning Chen can no longer forcefully keep Bai Yaoyao.
He used his reputation points to exchange for some elixirs, put the elixirs into a bottle, took them out and gave them to Bai Yaoyao and said, "Senior sister, you have to take these Shen Yun elixirs and these elixirs.
If you are in danger, don't save it for me, I still have plenty here."
Although Bai Yaoyao didn't know how Ning Chen obtained these pills.
But Bai Yaoyao knew that these extremely precious pills were nothing to Ning Chen.
Therefore, Bai Yaoyao was not polite to Ning Chen and directly accepted these pills.
"If I encounter danger, I will use it." Bai Yaoyao assured Ning Chen.
When Mu Die saw the profit, he immediately shouted sweetly: "Senior brother, where am I, where am I."
Like a well-run wife, Bai Yaoyao directly stopped Mu Die to the rear: "If there is any danger, I will give it to you."
In fact, it was just a few pills, so Ning Chen didn't care.
However, Ning Chen was still very happy that Bai Yaoyao took care of his family like this.
"Sister, since the situation at the Great Wall of Righteousness is so critical, I won't let you stay."
Bai Yaoyao nodded slightly: "You should be careful, the most important thing is to save your own life."
After a pause, Bai Yaoyao thought of something and added: "Xu Muzhi should come over after we go back."
Ning Chen immediately asked: "What is he doing here? He has long been unable to protect me."
Seeing that Bai Yaoyao didn't speak, Ning Chen asked again: "Is it possible that the Marquis thinks he is a burden and wants him to come to my place and let me protect him?"
Bai Yaoyao shook his head: "You don't need to protect him, you just need to let him stay by your side, complete his military strategy, and let him successfully break through to the third level."
After hearing this, Ning Chen suddenly said: "It turns out that he is here to practice leveling. For the sake of your face, senior sister, I will reluctantly help him."
Bai Yaoyao lightly rolled her eyes at Ning Chen, and then told Ning Chen: "When he comes, don't let him get too upset. He has helped us a lot before."
Ning Chen assured Bai Yaoyao: "Sister, don't worry, as long as he doesn't make himself uncomfortable, I will never let him get off the stage."
What Ning Chen said is the truth. Xu Muzhi's failure to come to Taiwan was mainly caused by Xu Muzhi.
Ning Chen really never said that he took the initiative to ask Xu Mu not to come to Taiwan.
With Ning Chen's assurance, Bai Yaoyao felt relieved.
After the two said goodbye again, Ning Chen watched Bai Yaoyao and Mu Die leave Baijia City.
It wasn't until the two women could no longer be seen that Ning Chen turned around and returned to the city lord's mansion.
Back at the city lord's mansion, Ning Chen also sent a message to invite Cao Xing and Yun Xuanzi over.
Yun Xuanzi came faster than Cao Xing. When he saw Yun Xuanzi, Ning Chen also stood up and saluted Yun Xuanzi: "This time, I have a favor for you, Taoist priest."
Yun Xuanzi returned the gift and said: "It doesn't matter that these are all Pindao's duties. What's more, in this battle, Pindao also gained a lot. Pindao feels that he is capable of hitting the second-grade Hedao realm."
Hearing that Yun Xuanzi could reach the second level, Ning Chen also quickly congratulated: "Congratulations, Taoist Priest, do you need me to prepare anything for Taoist Priest?"
Yun Xuanzi was not polite to Ning Chen, and directly stated what he wanted: "If Ning Yuan has more Taoist classics, can you write more."
This matter is still very easy for Ning Chen.
The previous two waves of huge profits made Ning Chen's reputation points directly exceed five million points.
Although Taoist scriptures are very expensive, it is still very easy for Ning Chen who now has a huge amount of money.
Ning Chen patted his chest and assured Yun Xuanzi: "Don't worry, Taoist Master. Before the end of the month, I will find a way to hand over at least five Taoist scriptures to the Taoist Master."
After saying this, Ning Chen added: "I have always felt something in my heart, but after this fight, my thoughts have become clearer."
Yun Xuanzi was particularly surprised to hear that Ning Chen could write five more Taoist scriptures.
The Taoist scriptures written by Ning Chen really inspired Yun Xuanzi a lot.
The fact that Yun Xuanzi was able to reach the second level of accumulation so quickly has a lot to do with the Taoist scriptures written by Ning Chen before.
If five more books were added to it, Yun Xuanzi felt that his second rank would definitely not be a problem.
"I am a poor Taoist, thank you so much for your help, Chief Ning Yuan. Our Taoist sect will definitely bear in mind the great kindness of Chief Ning Yuan." Yun Xuanzi thanked him repeatedly.
Ning Chen waved his hand and said: "The Taoist priest is out of touch when he says this, we have fought side by side for so long.
I have long regarded the Taoist Master as one of my own, so I would like to help the Taoist Master with this small favor.
Is it like saying that after Taoist Master you are promoted to the second rank, you will leave me immediately?"
Yun Xuanzi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly, and said: "Don't worry, Chief Ningyuan, even if I break through to the second level, I will not leave Baijia City immediately."
After hearing what Yun Xuanzi said, Ning Chen put his arm around Yun Xuanzi's shoulders and said, "I think so, Taoist Master, you are not such an unfashionable person.
I still have great faith in your character, Taoist Master, otherwise, I would not suggest to Your Majesty that the original temples and Taoist properties of the Changsheng Taoist Sect should be transferred to your name, Taoist Master."
Yun Xuanzi couldn't help but his eyes lit up after hearing Ning Chen's words: "Did the head of Ningyuan really suggest this to His Majesty?"
Ning Chen nodded: "I have already suggested it to Your Majesty, but Your Majesty thinks this matter is an internal matter within your Taoist sect.
The imperial court cannot directly intervene, so I think it should be resolved internally by your Taoist sect.
Originally, His Majesty planned to issue the decree immediately, but at that time, Taoist Master, you and that scum of the Taoist sect from the Changsheng Taoist Sect were still a little behind in terms of strength.
If you issue an order immediately, Taoist Master, you may suffer a loss.
Therefore, I asked Your Majesty to wait for you to reach the second rank, Taoist Master, before issuing an edict."
After saying that, Ning Chen asked with concern: "Taoist priest, do you think I can arrange it this way?
If that doesn't work, we can postpone the decree for a while.
You also know my relationship with His Majesty, and I still have some respect with His Majesty."
After Yun Xuanzi thought about it seriously, he said: "I still need the help of the head of the Labor Hospital to deal with this matter.
After I break through to the second level, I will first find that scum of the Changsheng Dao Sect."
Yun Xuanzi is quite stable on this matter.
That scum of the Changsheng Taoist Sect is still a second-grade man no matter how you say it, and he has been a second-grade man for a long time.
Although everyone's promotion routes are different, by the time they reach the second level, there is actually not much difference.
Yun Xuanzi must first find out the opponent's background before making a decision.
Ning Chen did not reveal Yun Xuanzi's thoughts, and directly agreed: "Senior, don't worry, this matter will be taken care of by me. I will tell His Majesty later and ask Your Majesty to postpone it for a while."
Of course Ning Chen never told Wu Zhao about this matter.
But Ning Chen believed that after he told Wu Zhao, Wu Zhao would definitely agree.
Although the Changsheng Taoist Sect has now ceased its activities and been suppressed.
But where he is, he is still a very powerful force.
It's still a time bomb that could go wrong at any time.
Now that someone is willing to defuse bombs for Wu Zhao, Wu Zhao is naturally very happy.
Moreover, Wu Zhao really looked down upon the current Taoist properties of the Changsheng Taoist Sect.
The current national strength of the Wu Dynasty is completely different from that of Emperor Shun.
While Ning Chen was chatting with Yun Xuanzi, Cao Xing, who was tired of his travels, finally arrived at the city lord's mansion.
"Thank you, Master Cao. I came to help you despite your busy schedule." Ning Chen politely said to Cao Xing.
Cao Xing glanced at Ning Chen who was saluting him. He first returned the salute to Ning Chen, and then said: "Master Champion, we are so familiar with each other, so there is no need for you to bury me like this."
Ning Chen laughed and then helped Cao Xing up: "Master Cao is just kidding you. I see you are too nervous during this period. I want you to relax."
"I have already asked people to prepare wine and food. While we are eating later, I will tell you two about what happened in the Western Regions."
In no time, the food and wine were ready.
Ning Chen invited Yun Xuanzi and Cao Xing to the table. Ning Chen first toasted to them.
Then he started to talk about what happened to him in the Western Regions.
Cao Xing and Yun Xuanzi were also shocked when they heard that Ning Chen had completely killed the Great Barrier Bodhisattva.
This means another second-grade Bodhisattva has fallen.
There were ten Bodhisattvas in the Western Region, and now three have died.
Of the remaining seven, except for the Great Dharma Bodhisattva, who was intact, the remaining six had their bodies blown apart.
The strength has been greatly reduced.
Calculated in this way, Leiyin Temple's top combat power has dropped by more than half compared to its peak.
And within twenty years, the combat power will probably remain at the current level.
The Western Region was completely crippled by Ning Chen.
"When such great achievements are reported back to the court, I'm afraid it will shock the government and the public. I'm afraid I will call you the Champion King from now on." Cao Xing said with emotion.
Ning Chen laughed and said: "I don't care whether you are crowned king or not, the key is that the attitude of those people makes me unhappy.
If they didn't stop me from being crowned king, I wouldn't have any problem with him not being crowned king.
But they insisted on stopping me, so I had to become the king as quickly as possible.
They don’t know that being slapped in the face hurts so much.”
After hearing Ning Chen's words, Cao Xing really felt sad for the civil servants in the court and the princes of the clan.
It was really unlucky for them to get into trouble with a evil star like Ning Chen.
If Cao Xing remembered correctly, the team that came to reward Ning Chen might have just returned to Fengjing now.
I have just returned to Fengjing and I am afraid I will set off again.
After all, they are familiar with this route.
But this time, he actually came to give Ning Chen the title of king.
"Master Cao, when the time comes, I will have to ask Master Cao to help write this memorial." Ning Chen raised his glass and said to Cao Xing.
Cao Xing also raised his glass and said with a smile: "I'm very happy."
Ning Chen asked Cao Xing to help with ghostwriting, but he really didn't use Cao Xing as a secretary.
This shows that Ning Chen is now deeply bound to Cao Xing.
The higher Ning Chen goes, the more rewards Cao Xing will receive.
So this kind of thing is also very beneficial to Cao Xing.
"Let's talk about something serious."
The conversation changed and Ning Chen began to tell Yun Xuanzi and Cao Xing what Bai Yaoyao had reminded him at that time.
After Yun Xuanzi and Cao Xing heard this, they couldn't help but nod their heads.
"We really have to guard against what you are worrying about, Mr. Champion.
After returning to the Prefectural Mufu, I will send instructions to all prefectures and counties to take strict precautions and conduct more strict checks on everyone entering and leaving the city."
After listening to Cao Xing's words, Ning Chen nodded and then looked at Yun Xuanzi and said, "Taoist Master, can you please ask the Taoist Priest's subordinates to help make a batch of tokens.
These tokens are required to be able to record the user's breath.
Then Mr. Cao is responsible for distributing the tokens, with multiple owners and multiple tokens.
The main token records the breath of all people who enter the breath, and the secondary token only records the breath of the owner.
Then only token holders can conduct trade between state capitals.
In addition, businessmen entering Hezhou from outside must also undergo an interrogation before entering the state, and then enter their auras.
…”
Ning Chen explained a lot of details, and Yun Xuanzi also listened carefully.
After Ning Chen finished speaking, Yun Xuanzi said: "All of these can be done."
"Then I'll ask Taoist Master Lao. Once it's done, just give it to Master Cao directly."
Cao Xing also stood up and thanked Yun Xuanzi.
After the three of them had a banquet, both of them left and went about their own business.
Ning Chen was about to start a group chat and report to everyone the results of his trip.
