Honghuang: My understanding is beyond belief. I am the first immortal of Jiejiao.

Chapter 236: The Tribulation of the Conferred Gods, Hunyuan Saint sits in Xiqi City, Erlang Shen challenges the Green Bull Monster

But when the Green Bull Monster was about to attack Xiqi City at night, unexpectedly, the Hunyuan Saint Lin Zhu appeared in Xiqi City. This gave the Green Bull Monster a big shock.

The strength of this Hunyuan Sage Lin Zhu is so great that only the Taoist Ancestor Hongjun can be compared with him in the prehistoric world.

I am just a small quasi-saint, I am afraid that I will be beaten to death by Hunyuan Saint in one round. Of course, other people cannot hear the communication between saints.

Therefore, the Green Bull Monster did not exist, so what was the point of saving face? Immediately, Green Bull put on a smile and promised Lin Zhu in a flattering way that he was just out to enjoy the scenery and would withdraw his troops.

Lin Zhu naturally would not expose Qingniu's lies. Anyway, as long as he achieved his goal, that was enough.

Lin Zhu restrained the saintly aura on his body and then slowly returned to Deng Mansion to rest.

The Green Bull Monster, also known as Niu Qing, took the Diamond Cutter into his arms and took a look at the somewhat excited soldiers.

He turned around and said, "Well, it's getting late today, and it's hard to see clearly when we fight. It won't be too late to challenge Xiqi tomorrow morning. Now, withdraw the troops and return to the camp to rest."

As soon as Niu Qing said this, it caused an uproar among the soldiers.

"Are you kidding us? Aren't our Chaoge army here to steal the city and capture people? You think it's too dark? Are you going to tell them openly that we are here to attack Xiqi City?"

"What's going on? The arrows are already on the string, but we are told to withdraw? Seriously, come out and practice!"

"Alas, this great achievement that was about to be achieved is gone just like that."

……

The soldiers were all a little upset. They said something, but they had to retreat as ordered.

Even Shen Gongbao's eyes sparkled. He sensed something unusual from the fluctuations in the air currents.

However, he still needed the help of Niu Qing and his senior brother Jiang Ziya to move his wrist. He had no choice but to wave his hand and take his deputy Deng Zhong back to the camp without mentioning it.

The next day, an imperial decree was issued from the royal palace of Xiqi City.

"Appoint the Taoist Zhulin of Jiejiao as the Imperial Master of Xiqi and assist him in military affairs."

Once this order was issued, ordinary mortal generals, especially Nangong Shi, Xin Jia, Xin Mian and other brave generals, would never accept it.

These generals had gone through life and death, fought with real swords and guns on the battlefield, and only then had they earned brocade robes and jade belts, and been granted titles and appointments as marquises and generals.

This Zhu Lin who appeared out of nowhere suddenly became the national teacher and counselor of military affairs. He was on an equal footing with Prime Minister Jiang. How could anyone reason with him?

Of course, the disciples of various sects were much calmer when faced with the discontent and indignation of these mortal generals.

Especially the three brothers Jinzha, Muzha and Nezha, their faces were full of smiles when they saw their saviors, Deng Chanyu and Longxuhu.

In his heart, he seemed to understand something. Even if there was no direct connection between him and Deng Chanyu, there must be a cause and effect entanglement.

Zhulin, also known as Lin Zhu's pseudonym, was sitting side by side with Jiang Ziya in the Yin'an Palace.

Jiang Ziya was inexplicably shocked. He was a disciple of Yuxu who had practiced Taoism for decades, but he could not see the realm of this little Taoist priest.

It seems that it is only natural for him to serve as the national teacher.

Xiqi City does need a powerful person to take charge. If you don't mention Jiang Ziya in your heart, you will make assumptions.

However, Nangong Shi, the most powerful general in Xiqi, flashed out from the group of generals. He faced Lin Zhu, raised his hands, and said loudly:

"Master Imperial Master, it is nothing wrong for me to command troops and advise on military affairs. But I have a small question, and I hope the Imperial Master can help me solve it."

Lin Zhu, he is a Hunyuan Saint who has practiced for hundreds of thousands of years, what else is there to not understand? Seeing the looks of these generals, they just don't accept him in their hearts.

However, he could not disobey the order directly. He wanted to take action to measure his own imperial master.

Lin Zhu smiled slightly, "General Nangong, right? If you have anything to say, just say it." Nangong Shi then spoke again, and said in a loud voice:

"I think that the national master's strategy should be unpredictable; when leading the army into battle, he should also be able to kill the general and seize the flag. I wonder if the national master agrees with this?"

Just as Lin Zhu was about to answer, a warrior in front of the steps came in to report.

"Report, there is a Taoist boy outside the palace asking to see you!"

Lin Zhu knew that Yang Jian had arrived, so he quickly sent warriors to bring Yang Jian into the hall.

As soon as he saw Lin Zhu, Yang Jian bowed deeply and was about to speak.

Lin Zhu, however, took the first step and spoke out.

"I am Xiqi's Imperial Master Zhulin. I know why you are here. You will serve under Prime Minister Jiang."

"Yes, Imperial Master," Yang Jian replied. He then bowed to Jiang Ziya.
"I am Yang Jian, a disciple of Guangchengzi from Kongtong Mountain. I have come here to assist my uncle-master in raising the Zhou Dynasty and defeating the Shang Dynasty."

Jiang Ziya also gave some advice and made arrangements for Yang Jian to stay there first.

"Uncle Jiang, don't worry. Before entering the palace, Yang Jian heard that someone was not willing to obey the National Master. It just so happens that Yang is itching to show his skills, so he can teach the unyielding general a lesson on his behalf."

Nangong Shi's temper was like a raging fire, so he would never take Yang Jian, whose face was as pale as powder, seriously. He rolled up his sleeves and rushed to Yang Jian.

"Little Taoist priest, let me show you how you are, the most outstanding national master of this generation. Come, let's fight for three hundred rounds in the main hall."

"Hahahaha," Yang Jian laughed loudly upon hearing this.

"Yang has never fought with anyone for such a long time. Besides, you are no match for me. Come, all the generals who want to challenge Yang, come out together."

Suddenly, dozens of mortal generals surrounded Yang Jian.

Although Yang Jian was the Mirror of Taiyi, he had completed the Nine Transformations and achieved great success in Taoism. To deal with this mere mortal general, he only needed to raise one hand.

Dozens of generals fell to the ground before they could figure out what was going on. This was still Yang Jian, who had restrained 99% of his power.

Otherwise, these mortals would have no chance of survival.

"Well, this Yin'an Palace is not a place for you to be brave and aggressive."

"Yang Jian, go to the Chaoge camp and dampen the arrogance of Niu Qing. Deng Chanyu and Longxuhu will lead the charge. There must be no mistakes."

"Yes, I will follow the orders of the Imperial Master."

Yang Jian muttered in his heart, "The actions of a saint are really unfathomable! He has such a high status in the Three Realms, but he becomes a mere imperial teacher and is envied by others. Who can I complain to?"

In fact, Yang Jian had no idea. Lin Zhu transformed into a little Taoist priest in order to better promote the Conferred God Tribulation and control the rhythm.

……

But the Green Bull Monster thought about it all night but still couldn't understand how he met the Saint Hunyuan.

Soon after daybreak, spies came to report that a general from Xiqi was challenging them outside the camp.

Niu Qing, hiding in the camp, peeked outside and discovered that it was not Lin Zhu, whom he was familiar with.

He was overjoyed and walked out of the camp with a swagger.

"You Taoist priest, you are no match for me. Go back to the city quickly and ask for a useful general to come."
