Conferred Gods: Start with a Phoenix clone

Chapter 38 King Zhou and the Dragon King of Jinghe River

The Dragon King of Jinghe River and Xiqi have been neighbors for so many years, and he also has a vague feeling that his wishes come true in recent years and are related to Xiqi. Once he cuts off this connection with his own hands, he will be the one who regrets it.

Endure it!

I didn't dare to provoke Xiqi, so I could only settle the score with those thieves.

The Dragon King of Jinghe River locked onto his two mortal enemies, Old Bear and Dragon Girl. However, he felt that one of them was stupid and the other was weak, and they did not seem like the masterminds. What happened was that he knew nothing about the other mythical beasts.

He immediately turned to the Dragon King of the West Sea for help.

The Dragon King of the West Sea thinks highly of this future brother-in-law, and he personally orders the chief of the turtle tribe to divine the mastermind behind the scenes. He at least wants to know the mastermind's location, name, and master's origins. Then he will personally lead the troops to seek justice!
Before he could finish calculating a single divination, the turtle tribe leader's body seemed to be cut from several directions by invisible blades. He only had time to utter the word "holy" before he exploded into a ball of blood mist in an extremely exaggerated way.

A turtle clan leader who lived for more than 9,000 years just died like this.
The Dragon King of the West Sea stood there in a daze for a while, and then without saying a word, he ordered his shrimp soldiers and crab generals to drive the Dragon King of Jinghe River out of his dragon palace.

Are you crazy? You dare to provoke a saint? Forget about a saint. I, Ao Run, wouldn't even dare to provoke a dog at the door of a saint's disciple!

Don’t even mention the prospective brother-in-law at this time. Even your biological father is useless. Get out!
The Dragon King of Jinghe River was also very scared, but he felt more wronged.

Stealing treasures and spiritual materials is normal, but also taking away the dragon bed, bedding, soup spoons, etc.? Can a saint do whatever he wants?! Don't you have any sense of reason?
Anyway, he had nothing left and the only thing that mattered was death. He made up his mind and set up a tight net to catch the team of divine beasts hiding in the mountains.

For no other reason than to vent!

Phoenix was also being chased in a very bad situation. At the worst moment, they were blocked in a mountain stream by the Jinghe water tribe. She immediately transformed into her original form, let Dang Kang, Zou Wu and Long Nu sit on her back, grabbed the heaviest old bear with her two claws, and flew over the heads of many water tribes.

This scene was also seen by Ji Chang who was fishing by the water.

Hmm? A bear flying across the sky. What does this signify?

Deng Chanyu, who was in Mount Li, was also very distressed.

She could understand the anger of the Jinghe Dragon King.

She really didn't want to steal the dragon beds and bedding. These things were done by the Cuiguang Liangyi Lamp. Now many materials have been converted to repair the world inside the lamp, and it is impossible to return them to the Jinghe Dragon King.

Because of the Cuiguang Liangyi Lantern and the subsequent series of actions, she owed the Jinghe Dragon King a huge debt. How could she settle this debt? Serving tea to apologize, or even asking for his death or slicing, was one way to settle it. The way Jieyin and Zhunti dealt with Hongyun was also a way to settle it. The debt was too much to pay, and only death could settle it, right?
After two days of deep thought, on the third day, she arrived at Xiqi City overnight and found her trusted general, Deng Ai.

After putting his plan into practice, seven days later, Deng Ai arrived at Chaoge City at full speed.

If you want to deal with the Dragon King of Jinghe River, the best helper is King Zhou.

The rise of Zhou and the destruction of Shang is the general trend. According to Deng Chanyu's estimation, there will be no problem if she can make a little use of this human emperor.

Deng Ai brought more than ten boxes of treasures including the dragon bed, dragon throne, night pearls, coral, agate, ambergris, etc. to meet Fei Zhong, the chief counselor of the Shang Dynasty.

The Shang Dynasty emphasized that "the black bird was sent by heaven to give birth to the Shang Dynasty". The dragon emperor and the dragon bed were not considered taboos here.

However, not all of these things were given to Fei Zhong. Deng Ai made it very clear that the Zhongjianfu could keep a portion and the rest could be presented to King Zhou.

Fei Zhong was a complete villain and treacherous minister, but he had a good reputation. In most cases, he would do things for money. Faced with ten boxes full of treasures, he was instantly unable to walk.

He has seen a lot of gold, silver and jewelry, but these are indeed rare to him.

The dragon bed was carved from a whole piece of jade, on which you could vaguely see the shadow of a dragon. The remaining dragon basins, dragon bowls, and dragon bricks all looked very noble and domineering to his mortal perspective!

He could already imagine King Zhou's hearty smile after he presented these treasures.

These things are indeed rare for emperors on earth and cannot be bought even with money.

He asked kindly, "How is Marshal Deng?"

Deng Ai clasped his fists and said, "My Lord, the master is in good health and has sworn on the river that he will fight for the court for another twenty years."

"Haha." Fei Zhong stroked his beard and chuckled. He was not only a treacherous minister, but also King Zhou's cousin. However, King Zhou was still very wise, and with old ministers like Shang Rong around, his say was not that important.

When he had nothing to do, Prime Minister Shang Rong wouldn't mind giving him any advice on eating, drinking and having fun. But if he spoke up about the current problems in the south, being scolded would be the least of his worries, he might even get beaten.

He loves money, but he values ​​his life more.

If Shang Rong, a veteran minister who had served three dynasties, was beaten to death, then he would be dead, and there would be no objection in the court or the country.

It was impossible to ask him to help Deng Jiugong gain the permanent garrison rights of Nando. He could only say a few good words for King Zhou when he was in a good mood.

Deng Ai had been prepared: "The head of the family recently sent the eldest son to attack Suizhou. Now that the Deng family is bordering Xiqi, the head of the family is unsure how to handle the relationship with Xiqi, so he sent me to seek advice from the doctor."

It’s not about permanently suppressing Nandu, but about this matter?
Fei Zhong felt that he had underestimated Deng Jiugong's loyalty before. He was a loyal minister of the Shang Dynasty.

With just a few pointers, you can get ten boxes of treasures for free and make a fortune.

Without saying a word, he told King Zhou about his intention to suppress and guard against Xiqi. On this point, even the old Prime Minister Shang Rong agreed to suppress Xiqi.

"So that's how it is, no wonder," said Deng Ai, who was very eloquent, as if he had suddenly realized something. "The eldest son sent some men to Suizhou to investigate, and they found that Xiqi had a large number of soldiers and horses, and that food and grass were piled up like mountains. On the 15th of every month, the leaders of the Western Rong would go to Xiqi City to pay homage to the Marquis of Xibo."

Everything he said was true. Fei Zhong knew that King Zhou was wary of Xiqi, and he was listening carefully at this time. Perhaps one day, King Zhou would ask him a question casually, and if he responded, he would leave a good impression of being loyal and doing his job well.

Deng Ai gave a comprehensive account of Xiqi from the aspects of military strength, population, farmland, weather, etc. Fei Zhong listened very carefully and asked a few questions from time to time.

Finally, Deng Ai got to the point: "I've heard from some merchants that Xiqi City is protected by the Dragon King of the Jing River. The weather in the area is good, the harvest is abundant every year, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. If this continues, I'm afraid..."

After only one day, Fei Zhong presented all the dragon bed, dragon chair and other items to King Zhou without leaving any.

When King Zhou was lying on the dragon bed and casually lamented the disloyalty of Xiqi, Fei Zhong immediately changed Deng Ai's words and told them again.

The name of the Dragon King of Jinghe River came into King Zhou's sight for the first time.
