Maoshan World: The young marshal starts!

Chapter 329 Three years in a hurry
Three months later.

April
The Republic of Sinchu issued a document from its Supreme Parliament, establishing the Maoshan School of Taoism as the state religion and advocating Taoism.

At the same time that the Supreme Council document was released, the contemporary elders of Maoshan, Uncle Nine and Zhaixing, led a group of people including Simu, Qianhe, Zhegu, and Tianxia Diyi Mao to Xingzhou Republic to build the Maoshan Dao Zhenguan on Xingyun Peak outside Xingdu City.

at the same time.

With Maoshan being established as the state religion of the Republic of Singapore.

Guan Shaoqing then convened a top-level meeting to establish a new special agency—the Paranormal Special Service Bureau.

After its establishment, the Paranormal Special Service Bureau directly cooperated with Maoshan and was responsible for handling all paranormal and supernatural events within the Republic of Singapore.

The first director of the Paranormal Special Operations Bureau was Guan Shaoqing himself, with three deputy directors: his master, Uncle Jiu; his martial uncle, Zhaixing; and Yue Qiluo.

As for the existence of Yue Qiluo and the three sisters Lin Wenjun and Yunluo.

After his master, Uncle Jiu, and his uncle, Zhaixing, arrived at Xingdao, Guan Shaoqing also confessed to them.

After all, if he didn't confess, Uncle Nine and Zhaixing would definitely find out about Yue Qiluo and the other girls sooner or later, given their strength. So it was better to just be honest. What if they didn't know about his relationship with Yue Qiluo and the other girls and attacked him directly?

Faced with Guan Shaoqing's confession, Uncle Jiu and Zhaixing, along with the other Maoshan members, were quite shocked.

Uncle Nine, in particular, was filled with complicated emotions. He never expected that Guan Shaoqing would be so promiscuous in private. It was one thing to have three wives and four concubines, but he didn't even spare female demons, ghosts, and fox spirits.

"My goodness, junior disciple, you are truly a hidden master."

Si Mu couldn't help but admire him, saying that he had only ever thought about these things, but he never expected that Guan Shaoqing would actually take action.

Cow batch.

"Ahem, senior brother, don't be angry. Shaoqing is still young after all. It's inevitable that young people are prone to being romantic. Moreover, Shaoqing's ability to subdue and guide these powerful witches, female ghosts, and fox demons is not without merit. I think the ancestors will not blame him."

After being shocked, Zhaixing looked at Uncle Jiu and spoke up for Guan Shaoqing.

Uncle Nine could only nod upon hearing this.

After all, he was his own disciple; what else could he do but nod in agreement?

Besides, if it really came down to cleaning house, he couldn't beat them now.

However, in the end, Uncle Nine still offered incense and reported the matter to the patriarchs of Maoshan.

Fortunately, the patriarchs didn't blame him too much, saying that it was understandable since he was a young boy who was divided into different streams.

Guan Shaoqing was immediately relieved.

In the days that followed.

Guan Shaoqing's life returned to stability and regularity.

Meanwhile, on the European continent, the war between the Central Powers and the Allied Powers continued. The war had reached a fever pitch and was locked in a stalemate, with neither side able to gain the upper hand. The famous Battle of Verdun had also officially broken out, and the number of casualties on both sides had reached astronomical levels.

Meanwhile, as the war continued, the national strength of both the Allied Powers, such as Great Britain, Great Russia, and France, and the Central Powers, such as the German Empire and Italy, was rapidly depleted.

The great war between the two sides has now fully entered the stage of a contest of national strength, a test of who is richer and can last longer.

foreseeable.

Regardless of the final outcome of this war, the victor will not fare well, because the cost to both sides is simply too high. Even the victorious nation will suffer a significant decline in its overall national strength after the war.

However, two countries have profited immensely from this war, continuously acquiring wealth from both the Allied and Central Powers.

These two countries are the United States and the Republic of Singapore.

The United States cooperated with countries such as Great Britain on the Allied side, and obtained a large amount of wealth from the Allied Powers by continuously selling war materials to them.

The Republic of Singapore cooperated with the Allied powers, such as the German Empire and the Italian Empire, and gained a large amount of Allied wealth by continuously selling war materials to the Allied side.

It can be said that the two countries that benefited the most from this war were the United States and the Republic of Singapore.

The United States and the Republic of Singapore also tacitly agreed not to interfere with each other's trade, and resolutely refused to participate in the war, instead continuing to sell supplies to both the Allied and Central Powers.

that's it.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Three years later.

China.

In the North, the people continue to live in dire straits.

Two years ago, the revolution completely overthrew the corrupt and backward rule of the Qing government, and the Republic of China was established.

However, after the establishment of the Republic of China, the Chinese people did not enjoy the good life that was expected and promoted. At the same time, Yuan Shikai usurped the fruits of the revolution and became the President of the Republic of China.

But misfortunes never come singly.

At this time, an unprecedented drought swept across the Guanzhong Plain in northern China.

The drought has lasted for more than half a year, and the entire Guanzhong Plain, spanning nearly a thousand miles, has been almost completely devastated. Famine and plague have also swept across the entire Guanzhong Plain.

Swish!
Swish!
Suddenly, two figures fell from the sky over the Guanzhong Plain.

One of them was a Taoist priest from Maoshan who exorcised demons.

The other person was also dressed in a Taoist robe, giving him an air of otherworldly elegance.

"Fellow Daoist Zhang."

The exorcist greeted the Taoist priest politely. The Taoist priest was a Golden Core cultivator from Longhu Mountain, surnamed Zhang, named Zhang Xudong.

"Fellow Daoist Exorcist."

Zhang Xudong smiled and returned the greeting to the exorcist, showing no disrespect whatsoever. The exorcist before him was also a Golden Core cultivator, just like him, and came from Maoshan, so he naturally dared not underestimate him.

Exorcism was achieved a year ago when he successfully broke through to the Golden Core realm in his cultivation.

In addition to exorcising demons, another person from Maoshan also broke through to the Golden Core Realm in these three years, namely Ji Daoren.

His cultivation level broke through to the Golden Core Realm.

Exorcist and Taoist Master Ji naturally rose to become contemporary elders of Maoshan.

Three years have passed.

Today, Maoshan has completely entered the era of power held by the generation of Maoshan disciples, including the one who exorcised demons. Shi Jian has taken over as the sect leader, and the remaining five Golden Core cultivators—Nine Uncles, Zhaixing, Yimei, Exorcist, and Ji Daoren—have all become contemporary elders of Maoshan.

Meanwhile, the previous leader of Maoshan, Master Taixuan, and the three elders, Master Yuyang, Master Yunshan, and Master Ziguang, all passed away within the past three years after their lifespans expired, and went to serve in the underworld.

"Fellow Daoist Exorcist, have you come here to investigate the severe drought in Guanzhong?" Zhang Xudong asked again, looking at the Exorcist Daoist.

"Indeed, Fellow Daoist Zhang, you've come for this reason too?" The exorcist nodded.

Zhang Xudong nodded as well.

"This severe drought in Guanzhong is truly peculiar. The celestial phenomena and divination all indicate that there is no severe drought, yet such a barren and desolate land has appeared."

"Legend has it that a drought demon is about to emerge. Could this severe drought in Guanzhong, which defies the natural order, be the reason why a drought demon is about to be born?"

"This is exactly what Maoshan is worried about."

"Whether it is or not, we need to investigate further to find out. However, if it is indeed a drought demon, we must find its location and eliminate it as soon as possible, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."

"."

The exorcist and Zhang Xudong were talking.

However, the two of them came to Guanzhong to investigate the cause of the severe drought.

Because of the severe drought in Guanzhong, both Maoshan and Longhushan have taken measurements, and the calculations show that there should not be a severe drought in Guanzhong.

But at this moment, Guanzhong is experiencing such a severe drought, with the land barren for thousands of miles, which is completely contrary to the predicted results.

This is obviously not normal.

That's why the two Golden Core cultivators, Exorcist and Zhang Xudong, came to Guanzhong to investigate.

They were worried that a drought demon might be about to be born.

After all, the current severe drought in Guanzhong coincides too well with the emergence of the drought demon.

They are all thousands of miles apart.

If a drought demon is indeed about to emerge from Guanzhong, then if we don't find and eliminate it quickly, otherwise, if the drought demon is truly born, it will be a great disaster.
