Starting from the imperial palace guards, his clones spread all over the world.

Chapter 488 The Princess’s Appeal
When Jiang Duanchao thought of this, he felt a surge of anger rising from the bottom of his heart, burning his internal organs so much that they ached.

Although he couldn't get angry on the spot because of the princess's face.

But the princess was so obviously taking sides that he found it hard to swallow.

After all, the people who were being beaten so badly at this moment were from his Ziyun Sword Sect!

The bloody half of Ye Xianqing's face kept appearing in front of Jiang Duanchao's eyes, making his anger grow stronger.

Just when Jiang Duanchao was about to lose control and was ready to rush forward to fight Liang Jin to the death, a cold gaze shot over quietly.

He subconsciously turned his head and saw that it was Zanshin.

Canxin stood behind Zhao Xiling calmly, his posture straight and upright, like a javelin.

Her eyes were fixed on Jiang Duanchao, with a hint of warning in her eyes.

Obviously, she would never allow anyone to be rude to the princess.

Although she and Jiang Duanchao had joined forces to attack Liang Jin before, it did not mean that they were in the same group. In her heart, the princess's safety and orders were the top priority.

Jiang Duanchao's brows were tightly furrowed, like two small mountains, and his heart was full of displeasure.

He glared at Canxin fiercely, but had to be cautious.

But at this moment.

A calm voice sounded slowly:

"Master Jiang, forget it."

The person who spoke was actually Gu Jinfu.

When Jiang Duanchao heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised, his eyes widened like copper bells, and he blurted out:

"Master Gu, how come even you..."

He was the helper invited by Gu Jinfu. Logically, Gu Jinfu should stand on his side both emotionally and rationally.

Gu Jinfu waved his hand calmly and said calmly:
"Your men, aren't they still alive?"

"It's just a slap in the face, what's the big deal?"

"Princess, now that you've spoken, the matter is settled. No need to discuss further."

Before, Gu Jinfu was indeed on the same side as Jiang Duanchao.

At that time, they had a common goal: to kill the Great Sage and rescue the princess.

At that time, the Great Sage Master was their common enemy.

But now, things are different.

The princess has gathered everyone together, even Gu Jinfu and the Great Sage Master are in the same camp.

Since we are all family, when resolving disputes, only one party can give in.

Liang Jin was firm in his attitude and clearly would not give in, so naturally everyone had no choice but to ask Jiang Duanchao to give in.

After all, Jiang Duanchao needed help from Gu Jinfu and Zhao Xiling, so he was more or less willing to listen to what they said, which was completely different from Liang Jin's attitude.

really.

When Jiang Duanchao heard this, he was so angry that his whole body was shaking and he was fuming.

He looked at Gu Jinfu and then at Zhao Xiling with gritted teeth, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness.

He knew that these two people really intended to favor Liang Jin.

This made Jiang Duanchao laugh out of anger:

"Good! Good! Good!"

"I can put today's events aside for now."

"But Great and Good Master, the matter between our two factions is not over yet!"

"After the secret manual issue is resolved, I will destroy the Red Fire Sword Sect with my own hands!"

"It's like destroying this stone!"

At the end of his words, Jiang Duanchao swung the long sword in his hand violently, slashing at a nearby boulder that was more than two people tall, causing a sharp gust of wind.

A terrifying sword energy immediately appeared.

The sword energy struck the boulder fiercely.

"boom!!!!!"

A loud bang made everyone's ears buzz.

The entire huge rock was neatly split into two halves under the impact of this terrifying sword energy.

Then, the huge rock collapsed with a loud bang, stirring up a cloud of smoke and dust.

For a moment, the air was filled with a pungent smell of stone powder.

Liang Jin looked at Jiang Duanchao's helpless and furious expression with a stern expression and replied in a deep voice:

"I'm waiting for you."

After saying this, Liang Jin turned around without hesitation and walked towards the people from Taiping Dao.

He didn't have time to continue the meaningless verbal dispute with Jiang Duanchao. There were more important things waiting for him to deal with.

In Taipingdao, Zhang You and Lu Qiannan, who had just woken up, also rushed over after hearing the news.

When Lu Qiannan saw Zhao Xiling, a hint of anger immediately flashed in her eyes and she glared at her fiercely.

However, Zhang You, who was standing aside, was secretly surprised when he saw Canxin, Gu Jinfu, Jiang Duanchao and their group appearing on Shenlu Peak.

After he learned everything from his men, he already knew the identities of these people.

What Zhang You never expected was that Liang Jin did not suffer any loss when he confronted these three masters head-on.

This also gave Zhang You a new understanding of Liang Jin's strength.

So when Liang Jin came over, Zhang You and Lu Qiannan hurriedly saluted respectfully and said in unison:
"Meet the Great and Good Master."

Liang Jin looked calm and said:
"Zhang You, Qiannan, the two of you, get ready. Today we are going to bring the elite of the Taiping Dao and head north with the princess."

Hearing this, Zhang You and Lu Qiannan were both shocked, their faces full of surprise.

A while ago, the Taiping Dao was preparing every day to guard against attacks from government soldiers, and everyone was on edge.

And now looking at the situation, it seems that the princess and Taiping Dao have reconciled?
Zhang You immediately asked:

"Excuse me, Great and Good Master, are we going somewhere?"

Liang Jin replied:

"Go to Jinzhou first, then..."

Having said that, Liang Jin paused slightly, a trace of thought flashed in his eyes, and then he continued:

"We'll see later."

Although he didn't say it directly, he had already made a clear decision in his heart.

Now that the emperor is about to die, the world is about to fall into turmoil.

Liang Jin's real body is alone in the capital, and if he encounters any problems, he will be unable to handle it alone.

In order to ensure the safety of the main body, the clone must go to provide support.

Therefore, Liang Jin had planned to lead the Taiping Dao to solve the problem in Jinzhou, and then continue north to the capital.

Only when you are closer to the center of power can you achieve more.

Under normal circumstances, so many people from the Taiping Dao would have encountered numerous obstacles as they headed north to approach the capital.

But now that I have the princess in my hands, it is like having a pass.

So Liang Jin had already planned to seize a favorable position before the emperor died.

"I'll obey!"

Zhang You and Lu Qiannan immediately accepted the order.

They knew that Liang was a man of swift and decisive action and was anxious to get this done, so they immediately turned around and hurried over to make arrangements.

Today, the number of Taiping Dao members has approached 100,000, and there are also thousands of elite members.

However, most of these elite troops are scattered across the country. Now on Shenlu Peak, there are only a few hundred elite troops that can be gathered in a short period of time.

Zhang You then quickly issued an order, notifying elite troops from all over the country to gather in Jinzhou.

The hundreds of elite soldiers present need to be fully equipped today.

Liang Jin only brought people from the Taiping Dao on this trip, and did not bring people from the Chihuo Sword Sect.

In his opinion, it would be better for the Red Fire Sword Sect to develop peacefully, as their role to him was no longer significant.

Finally, just as the sun was setting and the sky was dyed orange-red, everyone was ready.

So Liang Jin, Zhao Xiling and others set off together.

Gu Jinfu, accompanied by a group of foreigners, looked at the large number of Taiping Dao people and could not help but sneer and said in a gloomy tone:
"Great and virtuous teacher, do you know that there is a crime in the Daqian law of 'creating evil books and evil words'?" The crime of creating evil books and evil words, in simple terms, is the crime of misleading the people with evil words, inciting ignorant people to gather and form strict organizations, bringing major instability to social order, and even possibly triggering rebellious activities.

Creating evil books and evil words is a serious crime.

The Daqian Code stipulated that anyone who created a book containing false information would be hanged. The same rule also applies to anyone who spread it to mislead the public.

If the princess didn't need the Great Sage Teacher now, Gu Jinfu would really want to punish the Taiping Dao.

Liang Jin heard this, his expression unchanged, and asked:
"Why, does Lord Gu think I have committed a crime?"

"Then Lord Gu, by associating with a criminal like me, eating, living, and traveling with me, isn't this a violation of the law of harboring a criminal?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Jinfu was suddenly speechless and his face turned pale and red.

He opened his mouth, wanting to retort, but couldn't find the right words.

Liang Jin continued:

"Master Gu, are you religious?"

"Believe in Huang Tian and you will have eternal life."

Gu Jinfu snorted coldly when he heard this, a look of disdain appeared on his face, and he turned away angrily.

Liang Jin also returned to the carriage and continued on his way.

There was no way to go to Jinzhou by water, so everyone had to go by land.

The group marched forward in a mighty procession, like a giant, winding dragon moving across the land.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed.

In Qingzhou, no one will stop the Taiping Dao team.

And along the way, many devout men and women, after hearing the news, spontaneously came to help the elderly and children, brought food and drink, and lined the streets to greet them, their eyes full of piety.

Once you leave Qingzhou, you will not be stopped or questioned.

After all, the detectives from the police station were as fierce as wolves and tigers. No matter whether they were officers or civilians, they would hide far away when they saw them and would not dare to get close to them.

Along the way, no one, whether it was Canxin, Gu Jinfu or Jiang Duanchao, paid any attention to Liang Jin, obviously intending to exclude him.

Liang Jin didn't care about this at all. He was with the Taiping Dao people, constantly discussing and planning, and had no time to pay attention to others.

Only Zhao Xiling would come to see Liang Jin from time to time, and in her free time, she wanted to listen to Liang Jin play the piano.

As soon as he entered the Jinzhou realm, Canxin disappeared and no one knew where he went.

Zhao Xiling explained to everyone:
"It's not enough to rely on just a few of us. I need a few more helpers."

"Zanxin went to find help for me and will be back in a few days."

After hearing this, everyone did not ask any more questions and continued on their way.

Finally, after a long journey, everyone arrived at the outskirts of the Shiwan Mountains.

From here on, carriages could no longer pass.

As the sky gradually darkened, the night slowly enveloped the earth like a huge piece of black silk.

Everyone had no choice but to unload their baggage and set up camp on the spot.

After nightfall, piles of bonfires burned brightly, lighting up the surroundings like daylight.

Liang Jin, Zhang You and Lu Qiannan sat by a fire, the blazing flames illuminating their faces.

"Just wait for me outside."

Liang Jin looked solemn and instructed the two of them:
"The rest of the way, I can just go in by myself."

Once you enter the Shiwandashan Mountains, the environment becomes harsh and the roads are rugged and difficult to travel.

If too many people go in, it will not only be inconvenient for them to move, but it may also cause many problems. This is obviously not realistic. It would be better for Liang Jin to go alone.

Especially after entering the Dragon Burial Ridge, you may encounter more dangers.

Although the Taiping Dao has brought a lot of elite troops here, Liang Jin does not want these elite troops to be lost in vain on Zanglong Ridge.

When Lu Qiannan heard this, he immediately said anxiously:

"How can that be done?!"

"Master, if you go in like this, without even a single servant, how can you do everything yourself?"

"I want—"

Before she could finish her words, Liang Jin raised his hand to interrupt her.

Of course he knew what Lu Qiannan was thinking, so he said earnestly:
"Qiannan, going to Burial Dragon Ridge is extremely dangerous. You are not strong enough, and you will only hold me back if you go."

"I see that you are about to break through to the fifth level, so you must practice diligently during this period."

"When I return from the mountains, I must see that you have reached the fifth level."

"Do not disappoint me."

When Lu Qiannan heard this, she felt a little disappointed, but she also knew that what Liang Jin said was true.

She couldn't help but feel ashamed. She had followed the Great Sage Master for so long, but she was still so weak.

This made her secretly determined to practice hard so that she could be used by the great and virtuous master as soon as possible.

Just now.

Liang Jin's expression suddenly changed:
"somebody is coming."

Afterwards, Gu Jinfu and Jiang Duanchao couldn't help but turn their heads slightly and look into the distance.

In the night, black shadows moved quickly like ghosts.

These figures moved quickly, and it was obvious that each of them was a skilled warrior.

"who?!"

The guards immediately raised their voices in a loud voice, their voices echoing in the silent night sky.

Gu Jinfu waved his hand and said calmly:
"Don't be nervous, it's Master Zanshin who has returned."

Zhao Xiling smiled when she heard this and chuckled softly:

"It seems that Zanshin has brought my helpers."

really.

As Zhao Xiling finished speaking, the figures approaching in the night gradually became clearer in the firelight.

At the forefront was the famous detective Zanshin.

She has a strong figure and steady steps.

The large group of warriors following behind Canxin all had extraordinary auras and were obviously masters.

When Zhao Xiling stepped forward to greet them, the warriors all knelt down:
"We are waiting to see the princess!"

They prostrated themselves deeply on the ground with an attitude of respect.

Through their self-introductions, Liang Jin finally realized that these people were warriors from various sects and forces.

It has to be said that the princess's appeal is powerful. With just a simple order, many warriors will come to help.

Liang Jin observed carefully for a while and found that among these warriors, there was actually a third-grade warrior.

But unfortunately, there are no second-grade warriors.

Obviously, at the level of a second-grade warrior, the princess can no longer order him around at will.

Among the second-grade warriors in Daqian, Liang Jin knew of the Factory Master and the God of Capture. It was obvious that these two would no longer obey Zhao Xiling's orders.

Liang Jin had even discovered that even a third-grade warrior like Gu Jinfu was only superficially respectful to Zhao Xiling.

But if something important happens, Zhao Xiling may not be able to order Gu Jinfu.

Only Canxin seemed to be loyal to Zhao Xiling and obeyed her every word.

After these warriors paid their respects to the princess, they couldn't help but greet Gu Jinfu and Jiang Duanchao.

Gu Jinfu is the third in command of the police station, holding a high position of power; Jiang Duanchao is a famous martial artist in the northern world, with a great reputation.

Naturally, these two people attracted the attention of many people, and many people competed to make friends with them.

But Gu Jinfu was not only a high-ranking official, but also had a big air. He was obviously too lazy to have too much communication with these warriors.

He just nodded slightly, responded with a few words, and said no more.

This also caused some warriors to shift their attention to Liang Jin.

There was even a warrior who said in surprise:
"Great and Good Teacher? It's really you!"

"I didn't expect to meet you here!"

"I was in such a hurry last time. There are still many things I didn't have time to ask you."

"I have met you this time, and I hope that the great and virtuous master will be able to give me some advice!"
