Honghuang: Creation of the Green Lotus, the beginning of the Three Pure Ones

Chapter 313 Yin Jiao and Yin Hong Meet Yang Jian

Even Chen Xuan couldn't help but think to himself, "As expected of the last human emperor of the human race, this strategy alone is enough to make Zhou Tian Sage join forces to plot against him."

Of course, Chen Xuan couldn't say this aloud. He merely indicated that he had no objection to Di Xin's arrangements.

This inevitably boosted Di Xin's confidence, making him feel that he had finally gained recognition. Moreover, it was recognition from the Azure Lotus Sage.

Although Di Xin was no longer so eager to prove himself, he was still overjoyed at Chen Xuan's recognition.

At the same time, Yang Jian, along with his dog Xiaotian, intercepted Yin Jiao and Yin Hong thirty miles outside Chaoge City.

At this moment, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong were leading Jiang Wenqiang, heading rapidly towards Donglu. Moreover, they were not traveling on a main road, nor even on a mountain path.

This inevitably made Jiang Wenqiang somewhat worried. While walking with her son's help, she asked Yin Jiao.

"Jiao'er, what road are you taking? Don't get lost here, or we'll die in this deep forest before we even see your grandfather."

Yin Jiao smiled and said to Jiang Wenqiang, "Mother, there is no need to worry. I have Zilu's magic weapon, so I will definitely not get lost."

As he spoke, Yin Jiao took out a compass and waved it at Jiang Wenqiang.

Just as Yin Jiao was feeling smug, the sound of dogs barking came from not far away.

Although the barking of the dogs was not very loud, it startled the birds and beasts in the mountains, causing them to scatter in all directions.

Suddenly sensing the birds and beasts fleeing, Yin Jiao instantly realized something was wrong. He immediately shielded Jiang Wenqiang in front of him.

Seeing his elder brother's alarmed expression, Yin Hong immediately stood behind Jiang Wenqiang to prevent his mother from being attacked.

Just then, a three-pointed, double-edged sword pierced through the air and landed no more than ten feet in front of Yin Jiao.

Upon seeing the three-pointed, double-edged sword, Jiang Wenqiang immediately guessed who the newcomer was. After all, she already knew the civil and military officials in the court inside and out.

Jiang Wenqiang even had leverage over many civil and military officials, forcing them to submit to her control.

Although Jiang Wenqiang couldn't control Yang Jian, she was fully aware of his existence. She even sent people to investigate him thoroughly.

Upon seeing the three-pointed double-edged sword, she immediately thought of Yang Jian. After all, according to the information she had, Yang Jian's weapon was indeed a three-pointed double-edged sword.

So he spoke directly to Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, saying, "You two should leave quickly. The person coming is General Yang Jian, the Protector of the Nation. You are no match for him."

"Your mother will hold him off for you. You should hurry and find your masters. Then have them take you to Donglu to find your maternal grandfather."

Yin Jiao and Yin Hong naturally couldn't abandon their mother, so they took out their swords and solemnly observed their surroundings.

At the same time, Yin Jiao and Yin Hong silently recited the incantation in their hearts to notify their master, who had been teaching them for some time.

As Yin Jiao and Yin Hong silently recited the incantation, Guang Chengzi and Chi Jingzi, who had been following not far away, couldn't help but frown.

Chi Jingzi then spoke directly to Guang Chengzi, saying, "Senior Brother, it seems that the tyrant's men sent to capture Yin Jiao and Yin Hong have arrived."

"Should we act now to rescue Yin Jiao and Yin Hong and take them back to the mountains to cultivate? After all, only by taking them away as soon as possible can we prevent other unforeseen events from occurring." Guang Chengzi sneered and shook his head. "Junior Brother Chi Jingzi, why are you in such a hurry? If they don't witness their father's ruthlessness, why would they willingly come up the mountain with us?"

Although Chi Jingzi had some concerns, he still followed Guang Chengzi's advice. He simply watched quietly from the shadows to prevent Yin Jiao and Yin Hong from being in danger.

At the same time, Yang Jian appeared before Yin Jiao and her two children, and spoke expressionlessly.

"By order of the King, Yang Jian requests that Your Highnesses bring the deposed Empress back to the palace immediately to meet His Majesty."

Yin Jiao raised his sword and asked Yang Jian, "General Yang, do you also believe that everything was done by the Empress Dowager?"

"General Yang, you have been deceived by those treacherous officials. Your mother was framed by them; she did not do anything that was immoral or disrespectful to your father."

"Father is currently being misled by those treacherous officials. Once I borrow a million soldiers from my maternal grandfather, I will return to Chaoge City to kill those treacherous and rebellious officials."

"When the time comes, Father will also know the truth and that Mother was framed. Therefore, I urge General Yang not to collude with those treacherous officials."

"If General Yang is willing, please send my mother and me to Donglu. When my father learns the truth, he will surely not forget General Yang's kindness."

"My brother and I, along with our mother, will certainly recommend General Yang to the King so that he may become a regional lord and enjoy wealth and honor for generations to come."

Yang Jian was surprised that Yin Jiao could say such a thing. He even felt that someone must have taught Yin Jiao to say these things.

However, Yang Jian's personality was inherently cold on the outside but warm on the inside. So naturally, he wouldn't waste words with Yin Jiao, and simply said "please" in a completely emotionless voice.

Moreover, the direction Yang Jian was pointing was not towards Donglu, but towards Chaoge City behind them—the troubled place they had just escaped from.

This enraged Yin Jiao instantly, who snorted coldly at Yang Jian and said, "Since you are in cahoots with those treacherous officials, then I, Your Highness, will not spare you."

As he spoke, Yin Jiao confidently brandished his sword and charged directly at Yang Jian.

It was as if Yang Jian's head would be severed by Yin Jiao at any moment. There was absolutely no suspense whatsoever.

Just because Yin Jiao didn't know Yang Jian's strength didn't mean Jiang Wenqiang didn't. Otherwise, she wouldn't have asked Yin Jiao and Yin Hong to leave her behind and go to Donglu alone to see Jiang Huanchu.

But it was too late to stop Yin Jiao. Yin Jiao's sword was already less than a foot away from Yang Jian.

This caused Jiang Wenqiang to immediately close her eyes. However, Jiang Wenqiang closed her eyes not because she was afraid of seeing a bloody scene, but because she didn't want to see her son get hurt.

As Jiang Wenqiang expected, Yin Jiao's sword was sent flying by the protective aura before it could even touch Yang Jian.

"Your Highnesses, you are ultimately the rulers, and Yang Jian is the subject. Therefore, we hope that Your Highnesses will not force Yang Jian to take action."

As he spoke, Yang Jian reached out and grabbed at the air, and the three-pointed double-edged sword that was not far away flew directly into his hand.

It had even slowly risen, the blade pointing directly at Jiang Wenqiang.

It was as if he was saying to Yin Jiao and Yin Hong, "If you don't know what's good for you, don't blame me, Yang Jian, for taking action against Jiang Wenqiang."
