I really don't want to be a traitor

Chapter 565 Second Uncle

When Fan Li said the four words "Great Chu Dynasty", the immortals sitting high in the clouds were also confused.

"The Great Chu Dynasty?"

"No! Why not Dajin?"

"What's going on? Didn't Zhang Daoling say that the Jin Dynasty unified the world?"

"Damn it! This immortal calculated with my fingers and found that there is indeed a Great Chu Dynasty in the southwest corner of the mortal world, but its national strength is far inferior to that of the Great Jin. How can it be qualified to fight against the Four Evils for my Huainan Immortal Kingdom?"

"Let the whole country ascend once more, and quickly make the Great Jin Dynasty ascend to heaven!"

"It's impossible! God has only given me one chance to recruit soldiers for Huainan Immortal Kingdom!"

"Damn it! How could there be such a deviation!?"

The discussions of the immortals were like thunder rumbling in the sky.

Fan Li looked up at the figures hidden behind the layers of clouds, and finally a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Zhang...Dao...Ling."

suddenly!

Among the group of immortals, the most superior one suddenly spoke.

"I need an explanation."

A ray of fairy light fell!
Like a spotlight, it covered Zhang Daoling's entire body!

Fan Li turned around and saw that Zhang Daoling's body was shaking and the official robe of the Grand Tutor of the Great Jin Dynasty was soaked with sweat.

It seemed that this fairy light had some kind of power that Fan Li could not understand, and was torturing Zhang Daoling!
However, Zhang Daoling's gaze was extremely firm and did not waver at all!

He said nothing, but straightened his chest and stood firmly behind Fan Li.

The meaning couldn't be clearer.

From now on, I, Zhang Daoling, am just a minister of the Great Jin!
"I understand."

The Immortal King Huainan spoke again, his tone was cold and without any emotion.

"Zhang Daoling, from now on, I will permanently deprive you of your Huainan Immortal Status."

The fairy light withdrew.

Zhang Daoling seemed to have been drained of all his spiritual energy, and he staggered and almost fell.

Fan Li supported him in time!

"Thank...thank you, Your Majesty." Zhang Daoling said gratefully.

Fan Li shook his head: "Master, there is no need to thank me. I owe you."

Permanently deprive Huainan of his immortal status?

Fan Li didn't know what this meant yet, but looking at Zhang Daoling's miserable appearance, it was obvious that he had suffered a huge loss.

"I promise!"

"Taifu, I will double compensate you for what you lost today!"

Zhang Daoling nodded, his face still showing signs of pain, but flushed with excitement.

"I... believe in Your Majesty, and I believe in the Great Jin!"

However, as the king and his minister were talking, a sneer was heard from the sky.

"Humph."

"The Lord of Jin may not know what immortal status means yet?"

Fan Li looked up at the Immortal King Huainan.

He had seen the Immortal King's face clearly. He turned out to be an elder with a graceful demeanor and extraordinary appearance. He had the temperament of a great scholar and the nobility of a royal bloodline.

"I really don't know." Fan Li said in a deep voice.

"first."

"In the Immortal Realm, only the Heavenly Emperor has the right to call himself 'I'."

There was a hint of displeasure in the King of Huainan's voice, but there was no murderous intent.

Fan Li knew that he was the vanguard of his plan and the pathfinder for the crusade against the Four Evils. Therefore, the Immortal King Huainan would never have the intention to kill him.

Even so, the Immortal King's various calculations and plans were forcing Fan Li and the entire Dajin to death.

"Secondly."

"The Celestial Empire, the Immortal Kingdom, and the vassal states are all qualified to issue immortal titles."

"The wonderful use of the Immortal Book... Hehehe, you will know it if you are qualified to read the [Classic of Mountains and Seas]."

After talking for so long, you still want to keep us in suspense?

Fan Li felt some contempt.

In terms of bearing alone, the Immortal King of Huainan is probably far inferior to Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan.

However, his achievements in the fairy world far surpass those of these three.

"Fan Li!"

"I accept the will of heaven and call you to heaven to respond to the call."

"Whether it is Jin or Chu, since you are here, you must all be subordinate to the Huainan Immortal Kingdom and become my vassal state!"

Along with the slightly angry voice of King Huainan, a staircase flashing with colorful rainbow light appeared under the feet of Fan Li and his group.

"The vassal of the lower state pays homage to the great country above."

"This is the rule of the fairy world."

"Now."

"Fan Li, lead your people to kneel down and climb these 1,000 steps of the ladder."

The ladder to heaven has a thousand steps, but one has to walk up it on his knees?
Is there such a rule in the fairy world?

Xiang Ning, Qingqiu, Hanyue and even Zhang Juzheng and others all cast inquiring looks at Zhang Daoling.

The latter looked helpless, but nodded bitterly.

"The nations of the Immortal Realm have been fighting for a long time and hard."

"In the past, there was indeed such a rule that the ascended juniors should kneel down and pay respect to the seniors in the immortal world."

"I didn't expect that Immortal King Huainan would interpret this rule in this way."

Understood.

Rules are dead, but people are alive.

The right to interpret the rules lies with the strong.

As long as your fist is strong enough, you can explain it however you want.

"Kneel down!"

Some of the Huainan immortals became impatient and suddenly roared like thunder, or like a wild bull ramming into the eardrums of Fan Li and others.

"Ah! It hurts! Why does it hurt so much?"

Xiang Ning covered his ears in pain, but it did not relieve his pain at all.

Fan Li, Qingqiu, Hanyue, Zhang Juzheng, and Zhang Daoling all had expressions of pain on their faces, but they were able to endure it because of their profound cultivation.

As for the civil and military officials of the Chu State who ascended to the fairyland together, some could not bear it and fell to the ground foaming at the mouth, or knelt on the ground and trembled.

The anger of an immortal is really something that no mortal can bear?
"His Majesty!"

"His name is Lei Bei, and he is the number one swordsman of Huainan King!"

"Lei Bei, Su Fei, Li Shang, Zuo Wu, Tian You, Wu Bei, Mao Bei, and Jin Chang are collectively known as the 'Eight Lords of Huainan'. They are as powerful as the rulers of the fairy world!"

Zhang Daoling explained hastily, but unfortunately it was of no use.

“Kneel down!!!”

Along with Lei Bei's second roar, there was also a sharp sound of sword being drawn that resounded through heaven and earth!
"not good!"

Zhang Daoling was shocked.

"Your Majesty, be careful, Lei has been attacked by a sword!"

Just as Zhang Daoling finished speaking, he saw Han Yue take a step forward beside Fan Li.

Han Yue showed no fear, and just raised his head calmly. It was clearly a vast sea of ​​clouds, with immortals occasionally appearing and disappearing, but Han Yue accurately locked onto the location of Lei Bei.

"Husband, since the other party is using a sword, let me..."

Before Han Yue could finish his words, he suddenly felt a powerful sword intent coming from another direction.

The second sword intent was directed at Lei Bei.

"Liu An, King of Huainan?"

"Your men are really presumptuous!"

Canglanglang!
The sound of metal colliding!

Although the two swords were not seen colliding, a patch of cloud in the sky was clearly cut off, which seemed extremely unreal.

"what!"

All I heard was Lei screaming.

"Xiang Zhuang, why is it you?!"

The wind blows.

A man in gorgeous clothes, with his hands on his chest, the accessories on his waist were not actually unsheathed, he just looked at Lei Bei with a sneer.

"Lei Bei, how can you be a match for the Heavenly Dynasty clan members? Back off."

The Immortal King Huainan did not try to be a peacemaker until the two men had fought and the winner was decided.

The clouds dispersed.

The Immortal King led his civil and military officials, stood on the top of a thousand steps, and looked at Xiang Zhuang.

"Xiangzhuang."

"I know that you are Overlord's cousin, the number one swordsman of the Great Chu Dynasty."

"But the Lord of Jin ascended to heaven and became my subordinate."

"I am in charge of my own country's affairs. Does the Great Chu Dynasty want to interfere?"

After saying this, the Immortal King stared at Xiang Zhuang coldly.

"hehe."

"Destiny cannot be violated."

"The Great Chu is a dignified country, and my master is one of the six emperors of the immortal world. How could he not know the will of heaven?"

After hearing what Xiang Zhuang said, the Immortal King Huainan's expression eased a little.

"but……"

The Immortal King’s face darkened.

"but what?"

Xiang Zhuang chuckled again.

"But, if I'm not mistaken, the one who ascended with Fan Li seems to be the Chu State in the mortal world?"

"The Chu Kingdom in the mortal world is the bloodline inheritance of our Great Chu Dynasty."

"Liu An?"

"You're fighting with the Overlord for someone?"

"Tired of living?"

The Immortal King Huainan's expression changed again and again!
The countries in the fairy world cannot invade each other unless there is a good reason.

To rob and humiliate the descendants of the Great Chu Dynasty in the mortal world is equivalent to Liu An declaring war on the Great Chu Dynasty!

Declare war on Xiang Yu?
"What do you mean?" The Immortal King asked gloomily, "I have no intention of offending Emperor Chu Tian. Xiang Zhuang, what are you doing here? Speak clearly!"

"hehe?"

"sensible."

"Know the signs."

"No wonder Liu Bang... no, Emperor Han Tiandi has many relatives, but you are the one who can become the Immortal King."

Xiang Zhuang nodded repeatedly, but what he said did not give Liu An any face at all.

It really doesn't give face.

There is a huge gap between the Celestial Empire and the Immortal Kingdom that is difficult to cross.

What is the Immortal King Liu An?
"I want her."

Xiang Zhuang suddenly pointed at Xiang Ning.

"In compliance with the decree of the Great Chu Heavenly Emperor, the Chu monarchs and ministers who have ascended to heaven are summoned to join the Great Chu Heavenly Dynasty."

"The current Emperor of Chu, Xiang Ning, will return to the court as soon as possible to recognize his ancestors."

The Immortal King Huainan had obviously guessed Xiang Zhuang's intention.

He is here to rob people!

Fan Li ascended to heaven, but did not take the State of Jin with him.

Even if they followed the rules of heaven, the Huainan Immortal Kingdom and Fan Li were in a vassal relationship, and they had no influence over Xiang Ning and the ministers of the Great Chu.

Xiang Zhuang stated his purpose and flew in front of Xiang Ning.

"Emperor Xiang Ning of Chu?" Xiang Zhuang asked with a smile.

"……Yes."

Xiang Ning was a little nervous. He hugged Tuan Tuan with one hand and Fan Li with the other, and only then did he feel a little relieved.

"good."

"You can call me... um... Second Uncle!"

Xiang Zhuang's smile was gentle and his tone was even more cordial.

Fan Li saw everything and finally felt relieved.

He made a look at Xiang Ning, who understood and called out obediently, "Hello, Second Uncle."

"Ouch~!"

Tuan Tuan also shouted along.

Xiang Zhuang laughed loudly and then looked at Fan Li.

"You boy? Mmm, not bad, not bad, slick enough."

"It's a pity that you are such a thief, like Liu Bang. The Overlord doesn't like people like you."

Fan Li scratched his nose in embarrassment.

Is it slippery?
He was able to plot against the Huainan Fairyland while still in the mortal world. Besides being slick, he was also very brave, okay?

"Eh? What the hell is this?"

Xiang Zhuang seemed to have just seen the thousand-step ladder to the Huainan Fairyland.

He kicked it casually.

Wow!
The ladder to heaven shattered like glass, and one third of it collapsed in one go, which meant 333 steps of the ladder!

"Xiang Zhuang, what do you mean?!" Huainan Immortal King said angrily, "You are also a person of status, don't say that you were careless just now!"

After his roar, Xiang Zhuang's smile disappeared.

"Correct."

"I did it on purpose."

Xiang Zhuang looked at the Immortal King Huainan coldly.

"What is the relationship between Fan Li and Xiang Ning?"

"He is considered a relative of my Great Chu Dynasty."

"Just for this, kneel down and perform the Heavenly Ladder Ceremony, can't you give him a discount?"

After Xiang Zhuang finished speaking, he turned his back to the Immortal King Huainan and winked at Fan Li and Xiang Ning.

That expression clearly said: Sorry, Second Uncle can only help you this much.

I caught a cold from the air conditioner, so I wrote 3000 words. Please forgive me for the lack of words.
