Tianxian Road

Chapter 72

In the next three years, the situation in Qianbozhou went from bad to worse, to a very bad level.

An Tang sat on the throne that was cold and intimidating but crafted with great skill and painstaking care. While listening to his subordinate's report, he drew a map of the whole Qianbozhou in his mind, and circled the areas where his subordinates failed repeatedly.Seeing that the red circle covered half of the country, An Tang was full of doubts and puzzles.

In his opinion, the so-called civilians are a group of timid and cowardly people.This group of incompetent and powerless beings should be born to crawl under his feet and contribute all their blood and sweat to build gorgeous palaces and reclaim barren farmland; or please him with mournful wailing and humble death; or Serve him with god-given beauty, exquisite figure, and sweet smile. These three things are the whole value of common people's existence.

injustice?Unwilling?rebel?Those are all useful to ordinary people who are equally powerless, even wearing dragon robes, and are no different from ordinary people when they are armed with weapons, and are of no use to themselves.Because the gap between myself and mortals is like the gap between gods and humans, separated by a natural moat, insurmountable.

That's right, God and man.

In the eyes of weak mortals, the self with extraordinary power is not like a god?And the gods, born to enjoy the ignorance of ordinary people, should stand above all living beings!

An Tang has always thought this way, and he has also done so. Because of this, for the past seven or eight years, the worms who have been lifeless in his eyes dare to jump up and resist him again and again. It's not as if they were defeated after a fight in the past, but the more they fought, the more courageous they became, and there were so many people that they seemed to die forever, which made An Tang feel very strange.What puzzled him even more was that some monks joined in and helped those untouchables to resist his rule.

Any move of the former can't arouse the slightest interest in An Tang; the latter's eagerness to move is the key to the city lord's taboo.

If it is said that the situation in Qianbozhou has become worse and worse in the past few years, no one is behind it, and a group of people have been called to openly oppose him, Prime Minister An Tang will not believe it.

Thinking of this, An Tang's eyelids twitched.

The existence of monk Yunjizong is undoubtedly a thorn in his mind, telling him who is immersed in the dream of the gods all the time - you are not a born god, you are just covered with a layer of radiant skin.All your glory comes from Yunjizong. As long as you are disobedient, we can replace someone with the same blood of An's blood as the city lord anytime, anywhere, or even find a pariah in the wilderness at will, as long as we want , can also make him add a yellow robe and enjoy the honor.

Whenever he thinks of this, An Tang feels extremely uncomfortable. He has to torture and kill many people, see them tortured, struggle in pain, and die unwillingly but desperately, so that the unknown fire in his heart can be temporarily extinguished.Even so, for An Tang, there was no reason to pull out this thorn embedded in the bone marrow.

[Although the righteous faces of Yunjizong monks are annoying, most of them are people who don't like vulgar things, don't want to be involved in power, and are relatively easy to deceive.Even if they look down on me, they won't really do anything, at most they will avoid seeing me and feel dirty. 】Rubbing his chin with his right hand repeatedly, the new stubble was a little prickly, but An Tang, who was used to pampering him, didn't stop. It is to find someone to rely on, Yun Jizong can be called the best choice, if it is replaced by someone else... I am afraid it will not be so good! 】

Because of the golden core, no matter how indulgent An Tang is, overeating, he will not be too prominent. From the outside, he is still a heroic and majestic middle-aged man, but he is lustful, greedy, cruel, and ruthless... …An Tang, who can carry these negative words without any objection, is obviously not a kind person.

In fact, anyone who is familiar with An Tang dare not underestimate him, let alone indulge him in the slightest.Because they all know that An Tang is not only as fierce as a wolf, but also as cunning as a fox, and has a heart as cold and hard as a rock.

As a pure egoist, a guy who is ruthless and ungrateful enough to be disgusted, and despicable and hypocritical enough to be a textbook for hypocrites, An Tang looks down on the monks of Yunjizong.To be precise, a person like him who thinks he is smart and indulges in pleasure is completely different from an orthodox monk, and he has never been on the same road from beginning to end.But this doesn't mean that when he has to find a backer, he will choose a mage who has "like interests" with him.

[Do you want to kill me, and then, in the name of my cruelty, ask Yunjizong to let you succeed the Patriarch; or do you want to join another sect, thinking that with a backer behind you, you can stir up wind and rain? 】

Thinking about it left and right, I feel that these two possible An Tang can be called small eyes.

It's about your own safety, no matter what happens, you can't settle down and your family has an accident, and outsiders are alone, right?
As soon as An Tang thought about it, he waved his hand, ignoring the abruptly stopped words, fearful eyes and sweaty appearance of the person who reported him, and said unhurriedly: "You don't need to care about these small things. There are some untouchables on the left and right. If you can't become a master, you go and send someone to invite the three monks of Yunjizong, saying that I want to ask... about the heir."

As the envoy sent by the Yunji Sect, Zhang Yuan must be the first to be invited, not to mention that in order to maintain the barrier, she was unable to practice in long-term retreat for ten years. Everyone knows this, and Zhang Yuan did not use retreat as an excuse , The reason why visitors are turned away.But upon hearing An Tang's reasons, Zhang Yuan still felt it was ridiculous—what does it matter to me that you choose an heir?I can't even recognize your sons, grandsons, uncles, and uncles, what kind of consultation are you doing?

Zhang Yuan originally planned to refuse directly, but felt that it was inappropriate. After a moment of consideration, Fang solemnly said: "Junior Sister Ye is practicing in seclusion. I'm afraid the people you send won't be able to call her cave door. I'd better invite her to join me!"

Junior Sister Ye is much smarter than herself, Zhang Yuan is worried if she doesn't ask her what she means.

"Ask about the heir?" When Ye Xinyao heard this, she knew that the situation was very bad, and the enemy would probably attack within half a year. While her heart was awe-inspiring, she showed a half-admiration and half-sarcasm expression on her face. A sentence came: "As expected of being the lord of Qianbo City, he is indeed a hero who steps on many masters of the same clan and rolls around in conspiracy."

"what?"

Guessing that the enemy probably will attack in the near future, how could Ye Xinyao be willing to let Zhang Yuan go into the muddy water?In any case, hiding in the cave is much safer than going to the inner city.So she purposely said in a relaxed tone, nonchalantly: "I think the current political situation in Qianbo City must be very bad. Some people don't like An Zhu and want to take action against him and take his position as city lord. He invites us to go. I don’t want my power to be damaged, and I want us to be his targets and protect him! It’s just strange that An Tang is the only Golden Core cultivator in the Liulishui World. ..."

Hearing that it was a matter of the An family fighting for power and profit, Zhang Yuan had no interest, and lazily responded, thinking about how to reject An Tang, only to find that the barrier of the cave had been touched.

Coincidentally, they all know the people outside the cave.

The daughter of An Tang, An Qingcheng.

"She falls fast." Ye Xinyao sneered, not hiding her indifference. Zhang Yuan was a little embarrassed—she had listened to Ye Yaoyao's advice of "being good for the other party". Under An Qingcheng's powerful brown sugar skills, she still retains some contact, which can barely be called a friendship.Seeing that Junior Sister Ye had made it clear that she didn't like An Qingcheng, Zhang Yuan thought for a moment, and asked cautiously, "You...don't plan to see her?"

"It's nothing more than fighting for power and profit. I'm not interested." Ye Yaoyao looked at Zhang Yuan, and even though she had guessed about seven or eight points, she still had a glimmer of hope, and asked, "Where is Senior Sister?"

Zhang Yuan hesitated for a moment, then sighed: "Forget it, she's a girl, it's more difficult after all, I'd better go out and meet her!"

Even though she knew that with Zhang Yuan's heroic personality and soft heart, she would be coaxed by the other party when she saw An Qingcheng. Ye Yaoyao, who deliberately spoke out to dissuade her, thought for a while, and decided to give up, because she couldn't take the "future" like last time. And "destined" to stop Zhang Yuan.

Hastily making decisions for Zhou Nihong, completely ignoring what the other party thinks, that's because Ye Xinyao doesn't want to make friends with Zhou Nihong at all. For an extremely self-centered person like Zhou Nihong, even if he flatters and obeys thousands of times If you don't deal with it once, she will hate you, just like the tragic Shen Qinghui, but Zhang Yuan...Ye Xinyao made several explicit hints, and even directly guided her with a bit of intimidation. It's only been a few years, but... ...Forget it, with the temperament of a senior sister, even if she knows that the road ahead is dangerous, in order to save people, she will probably rush through mountains of swords and seas of fire.

Thinking of this, Ye Xinyao indifferently and meaninglessly raised the corners of her lips, and made the last persuasion: "This is the An family's internal affairs. As outsiders, we are only going back in three years, so it's better not to interfere."

Zhang Yuan thought she understood what Ye Yaoyao meant, and nodded her head. Ye Yaoyao knew she didn't understand, and sighed in her heart, but said seriously: "I've changed my mind, Senior Sister, I'll go with you!"
