I really don't want to be a traitor

Chapter 604: Fight between Ministers

"Shameless!"

"mean!"

Zhang Daoling was once under the command of the Immortal King of Huainan.

The two sides were once monarchs and subjects, and they also had a bond of affection for each other.

But when Zhang Daoling heard what the King of Huainan said, he was so angry that he couldn't help but blurt it out!

It’s a pity that there is a huge gap between his status and that of the King of Huainan.

Even though a conflict broke out in person, King Huainan did not take Zhang Daoling seriously at all, and his own immortals would take action on his behalf.

Zheng!
The sound of sword!
A sword light suddenly appeared, like a white rainbow or the sun in the sky!
"Thunder Quilt!"

"The number one swordsman in Huainan!"

Zhang Daoling recognized the person at first sight and was horrified!

Back when they were in the Huainan Immortal Kingdom, there was a huge gap between him and Lei Bei in terms of strength and status.

Lei Bei suddenly attacked him, and Zhang Daoling had only one thought in his mind:
My life is over!

Although he knew he was going to die, the old Taoist still subconsciously activated the Dragon Tiger Golden Pill to resist.

Buzz~! ! !

The sword force was like a white rainbow piercing the sun, hitting the golden elixir floating above Zhang Daoling's head.

"cough!"

Zhang Daoling coughed up blood and retreated repeatedly.

"Master Taifu, how are you?" Zhang Juzheng held Zhang Daoling up with his ethereal aura and asked.

"Do not……"

Zhang Daoling widened his eyes, looked at Lei Bei in disbelief, and then carefully checked his injuries.

"No what?" Zhang Juzheng asked anxiously, "Grandmaster, you must not show off your strength. The other party is the number one swordsman in Huainan that you mentioned before?"

It turned out that since his ascension, the two Lord Zhangs under Fan Li's command had gotten along quite well and their personal relationship had gradually deepened.

Zhang Juzheng was studious and eager to learn, so he asked Zhang Daoling a lot about the fairyland. In particular, the Huainan Fairyland was the one Zhang Daoling was most familiar with, so he told Zhang Juzheng all about its customs and culture.

"No, I won't force it." Zhang Daoling shook his head and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "It seems that the thunder quilt is not that strong?"

really.

Lei Bei, who had suddenly attacked with his sword just now, now had a dark face.

He struck with all his strength, but the sword failed to cut through the dragon-tiger golden elixir. Instead, the web of his right hand holding the sword was shaken with extreme pain, and the immortal energy in his body was disrupted.

"You were able to take on Lei Bei's [White Rainbow Piercing the Sun]?" Immortal King Huainan was also surprised for a moment, and then said, "It must be a blessing from heaven, allowing you to make great progress in your alchemy."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eight people behind the King of Huainan, the so-called Eight Lords of Huainan, all showed jealousy.

If the Huainan Immortal Kingdom had suppressed the four villains, the eight of them would have surely received the blessing of heaven, but now it has benefited Zhang Daoling.

"Zhang Daoling, you are originally from Huainan. Isn't it a pity to abandon the light and join the dark?"

"The Emperor of Jin rose from the mortal realm, and he has his own team of civil and military officials. Using you is just a temporary choice, how can it last long?"

"Come back soon."

"The Immortal King is magnanimous and will certainly forgive your sins. He will also give you a seat in the Huainan court."

An immortal who looked like a Confucian scholar suddenly spoke up and tried to persuade him with a smile.

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhang Daoling's face changed drastically and he quickly turned to look at Fan Li.

This is clearly an attempt to sow discord.

Even if Zhang Daoling was unwilling to return to the Huainan Fairyland, it was inevitable that he would plant a thorn in the heart of his new master.

Given Zhang Daoling's status as a second-rate official, it would be difficult for him to advance in his official career in the future.

The words of the Confucian scholar and immortal were extremely vicious and malicious.

Unfortunately, Zhang Daoling was a Taoist practitioner, and was far from being as eloquent as the Confucian practitioners, so he was unable to explain himself.

"joke!"

When Zhang Juzheng saw his colleague in an awkward situation, he immediately stood up.

"You said that since my Majesty came from the mortal world, he cannot tolerate people from the immortal world?"

"What kind of narrow-minded words are these?"

"You?!" The scholar's expression froze, and he threatened coldly, "How dare you disrespect me? Do you know who I am?"

Zhang Daoling also reminded in a low voice: "Taiyue, he is the one I mentioned to you before, the leader of the Eight Gentlemen of Huainan, the number one Confucian cultivator in Huainan, the Immortal Wu Bei." The number one Confucian cultivator in Huainan?

When Zhang Juzheng knew the identity of the visitor, the fighting spirit in his eyes became more excited!
"Are you the Confucian Immortal Wu Bei?"

"That's right!" Wu Bei raised his head and said proudly, "You young man, you know you are wrong now, right?"

"Humph!"

Zhang Juzheng sneered and refuted it on the spot.

"With your knowledge, even if you are a thousand years older than me, you will just be wasting your time."

"Your Majesty, the Emperor of the Great Jin, although we founded a country in a corner of the Nanling Mountains in the mortal world, with a small area and few people, we have the ambition to compete for supremacy in the world and the strategy of complementing the righteous and the strange."

"He fought for the Central Plains, won every battle, and finally unified the world, creating a great foundation that had not been seen for a thousand years."

"Now that my master has ascended to the immortal realm, although the road to immortality is long, all knowledgeable people recognize my master's potential and qualifications, and the Great Qin Emperor calls him a friend."

"The four evil spirits were wreaking havoc, and my lord went to the dangerous place to take charge of the situation. Finally, the four evil spirits were saved, and the old land of Wu Zhou returned to the fairyland."

"With all these things, you, with your old and corrupt knowledge, dare to make noises and sow discord in front of my Lord. Aren't you asking for humiliation!"

it is good!
Fan Li watched Zhang Juzheng's performance quietly from the side and almost applauded him!
He is truly worthy of being the youngest cabinet minister in the Jiajing period of the Ming Dynasty, Xu Jie's disciple, and Emperor Wanli's tutor!

His eloquence, quick wit and eloquence are beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Wu Bei was indeed left speechless by Zhang Juzheng's retort!

He became furious and suddenly attacked!

"Zhuzi, you are seeking death!"

Wu was hit with a mighty celestial energy that rushed towards Zhang Juzheng like a surging river.

“So fierce!”

Zhang Juzheng was also shocked when he saw this.

He hastily mobilized all his spiritual power to resist. Although he was immediately submerged in the vast river, he was like a lone boat, tossed and turned in the stormy waves, barely holding on.

When his ministers competed with each other, the emperor would not intervene, otherwise he would lose face even if he won.

Fan Li understood this principle, and he also knew that since Qingqiu, Hanyue and Changle were his women, it would be inconvenient for him to take action.

This is troublesome.

Zhang Juzheng was blessed by heaven and made great progress in Confucianism and Taoism, but he was definitely no match for Wu Bei, a Confucian immortal who had lived for thousands of years.

How to do?
Fan Li was getting anxious when he saw a slender figure taking a step forward.

"Wu Bei!"

"How dare you show off here?"

"When Wu Zhou Immortal Kingdom was at its peak, you were not even qualified to offer me a cup of tea!"

The person who spoke this was Shangguan Wan'er.

Her eyebrows were raised, her pretty face was slightly cold, and she turned her hand and pushed forward.

The vast spiritual energy was like the waves of the sea, surging and boundless. It protected Zhang Juzheng in an instant and swallowed up all of Wu Bei's long river of vast energy.

"puff!!!"

Due to the huge disparity in strength, Wu Bei spat out a mouthful of blood and retreated in horror.

"you……"

"Even you have been blessed by heaven?"

Wu Bei's achievements in Confucianism and Taoism were not as good as Shangguan Wan'er's. He originally thought that the Wu Zhou Immortal Kingdom was defeated and Shangguan Wan'er was displaced, and he had already surpassed her.

Unexpectedly, after meeting again after so many years, the gap between us has become even bigger! ?

suddenly!

A voice sounded in Fan Li's mind.

"Fan Li, the Emperor of Jin."

"He led the campaign against the Four Evils, with far-reaching strategies and great contributions."

"reward."

"The old land of Wu Zhou was assigned to Da Jin and became the Da Jin Immortal Kingdom."

"I will also grant you the [Nuwa Coordinates]. After using them, you can be transported to the outer space, where the Saint Nuwa is."

Fan Li was stunned on the spot.

Wait!
What happened just now?
Is this the voice of Tiandao Hongjun?
Why does it sound familiar, like... a treacherous minister system?
