From Under One Person: Sincere Journey Through the Heavens

If the elders of the sect were to blame him, then the leader of the righteous path—the former Celestial Master Zhang Enpu of the Celestial Master's Mansion—would have to bravely face death!

And so.

In just two months, the landscape of Sichuan changed dramatically. The armies under the command of the two Lius were completely defeated and submitted to Wugensheng.

During this process, Wugensheng was also given another nickname:

The Monkey King!

That's right.

The locals attributed the name of Sun Wukong to Wugensheng.

His six brothers and sisters were also given the titles of the other six Great Sages—

The Great Sage Who Pacifies Heaven is Gao Gen; the Great Sage Who Overturns the Sea is Zhao Tianhai; the Great Sage Who Confounds Heaven is Zhang Dong; the Great Sage Who Moves Mountains is Zhao Pingshan; the Great Sage Who Awakens Wind is Wei Shufen; and the Great Sage Who Drives Away Gods is Feng Tianyang.

There are even folk tales that these seven people are the reincarnations of the "Seven Great Sages". It is said that when Sun Wukong, the Great Sage Equaling Heaven, was subdued by Erlang Shen, the demonic root of his discontent had not been dispelled. He led a group of brothers down to earth to change the Erlang temples in Sichuan and Chongqing to the surname "Sun" once again!

Upon hearing this rumor, Wugensheng was both amused and exasperated, but he did not strictly forbid the people from discussing it, nor did he replace the Erlang statue in the local Erlang Temple with Sun Wukong. He even personally led a group of brothers to offer incense at the Erlang Temple to appease the local people.

Thereafter.

Wugensheng then began to redefine the rules for the mountain stronghold—the system of the Guopai faction, the system of the Confucian Society… After some thought, Wugensheng finally decided to imitate the Confucian Society and established a “Seven Sages Society”.

only--

Those who learn from me will live; those who imitate me will die.

Yuhang.

Confucian Society.

Upon learning of the changes in the Sichuan region, Jiang Liu smiled and said leisurely, "Although I have forged both literary talent and martial prowess, and others respectfully call me a 'sage,' I dare not accept it. But Wugensheng is quite something; he actually took the banter of the common people about the seven of them to heart..."

Chapter 1316 There are really a lot of "saints" in this world.

"The Seven Great Sages?"

While helping Jiang Liu organize the documents, Hong Guniang complained, "There are really too many 'saints' in this world."

Isn't that a lot?

With Jiang Liu, the president who has cultivated both literary courage and martial prowess, there are already eight saints!

This chaotic world truly produces a multitude of "saints"!

"Should we take action against Quanxing beforehand?"

Zhuge Yu suggested, "If this continues, I'm afraid Wugensheng will make things even more chaotic in Sichuan!"

We should learn from the Confucian Society's model—

become.

However, it is necessary to adapt to local conditions.

Based on the intelligence analysis we've received so far, after Wugensheng established the Seven Saints Society, he built a commercial street similar to a cultural district, constructed schools, and established labor unions and youth associations, etc., intending to make those warlords honestly engage in trade and those bandits diligently pursue their livelihoods...

His assessment consisted of only four words:

That's wishful thinking!

Indeed.

Whether they are warlords or bandits, they are essentially people who can't survive, but it's not easy to make them behave all at once.

Without him.

Most of the warlords and bandits relied on opium to survive; they were all addicts, and it was impossible for them to be honest and law-abiding until they completely quit!

Besides that.

Those people also lacked the skills and connections to do business.

Wu Gensheng's approach might create a prosperous scene in the short term, but given enough time, within two years, chaos will inevitably ensue!

The situation was even more serious than during the period when the two Lius of Sichuan were fighting each other!

After all, although the two Lius didn't like each other, they each occupied a territory, which allowed them to shift the focus of their conflict.

Now that Wugensheng is in the lead, there won't be any more deaths from armed clashes or wars in that area for a while. However, the problems caused by reckless development of commerce, industry, and agriculture could make the area even more chaotic than before.

therefore.

The best way for Wugensheng to succeed is to learn from the management model of the Guopai school.

But unfortunately—

His horizons have broadened.

They look down on it.

It's just a pity for the people in the Sichuan area.

"No need, there won't be any major chaos within the next two years."

Jiang Liu rejected Zhuge Yu's suggestion, saying, "We'll go and 'take over' the area once he's finished developing it and things have become chaotic."

There's no need to make the local people suffer.

Those bandits, warlords, and Quanxing sorcerers will only suffer a little during this time.

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yu was taken aback and tentatively asked, "President, according to intelligence, Wugensheng's strength has increased greatly, and he even has the ability to have three heads and six arms. Is this related to you?"

"Yes."

Jiang Liu admitted, "There is a valley called Twenty-Four Solar Terms in the Qinling Mountains. It is a place where the Qi system was established by the Ziyang Zhenren Zhang Boduan. As long as ordinary people walk through that valley in the correct way, they can open up the Ren and Du meridians, cultivate the Small Heavenly Circuit, and control the use of Qi as an energy."

He led the 'Six Saints' into the cave, hoping to gain some fortune, but I discovered it—

Rather than letting them figure it out on their own, which leads to too many variables, it's better for me to personally teach them and observe their personalities in the process.

At this point, Jiang Liu paused, giving Zhuge Yu time to process this information, before continuing, "The land of China is vast and sparsely populated, and it lags far behind the rest of the world. To ensure a more secure future, providing some convenience to Wugensheng and others is a necessary measure."

in short.

We need more staff!

Even if he were invincible, it would be difficult for him to be all-encompassing. Moreover, he also needed to cultivate himself. It was impossible for him to take care of the food, clothing, shelter, and transportation of all the people in the land while he was alive.

Just like the foundation building method.

This is the way of teaching someone how to fish!

Although Wugensheng is a member of Quanxing, he has never committed any crimes. Moreover, he can be considered to have "spiritual roots." It is a real pity that he remains in Quanxing, living in a daze. He needs guidance.

As for the other six—

Although he became sworn brothers with Wugensheng, he was not a true member of the Quanxing sect.

Furthermore.

The "Seven Extraordinary Techniques" that Wugensheng and the others have now comprehended are different from the Eight Extraordinary Techniques of that parallel universe. As long as the Confucian Society members and Zhang Zhiwei do not make a move, even if Zhang Jingqing faces those seven people, she will not be able to last thirty rounds against any of them in a deadly battle.

However, just to be on the safe side, Jiang Liu still planned to send members of the All-Tong Security Team to the hometowns of the six people to protect their families, just in case.

"That's true."

Regarding Wugensheng, Zhuge Yu didn't have much of an opinion, except—

"The other Quanxing?"

"Except for a small number who might be saved, the rest... when war breaks out in the future, they will naturally be put to good use and cannot be wasted."

For Jiang Liu, matters of principle and personal grudges are not in conflict, as long as the plan is appropriate.

"That Wugensheng is truly a peculiar character."

Despite knowing something about Wugensheng, Lu Jin still remarked, "As the saying goes, one bad apple spoils the whole bunch. But he's the one who tries to find a grain of rice in a pot of bad apples."

The others readily agreed.

Washing rice from excrement will not only fail to fill your stomach, but will also cause you to contract a host of chronic diseases, making people keep their distance from you. It is truly the act of a fool.

"Don't say that. He might be enjoying the sense of accomplishment of 'finding gold in the shit.'" Jiang Liu chuckled, then ended the topic and started talking about the construction of the life iteration system.

Bai Yuekui reported on the progress, proposed several revisions, and decided to return to "Ling Cage" to bring Mark over.

Without him.

With Mark doing the hard labor, efficiency will inevitably increase.

When Mark arrived, he had planned to explore this "old" world with Ran Bing, but he was immediately taken to the West Lake. After being told what was going on, he was speechless: "You brought me here just to do chores?"

"if not?"

Bai Yuekui countered with an air of self-evident certainty, then added, "Don't worry about Ran Bing. I've asked Gao Huan to go shopping with her, so I guarantee there won't be any problems."

Seeing that Bai Yuekui had already arranged everything, Mark was completely speechless. Looking at the three pools reflecting the moon, he asked in confusion, "Besides me, who else is there?"

"she."

Following the direction Bai Yuekui was pointing, Mark was startled to see a tall, blue-skinned woman with four arms.

"The same type as me?"

Mark looked slightly curious.

"Not quite the same."

Bai Yuekui already knew about the origins of this ghost mother from Jiang Liu, and knew that she was now Jiang Liu's "slave"—Jiang Liu was also "petty".

of course.

She didn't have a good impression of this ghost mother either.

After learning about the Ghost Mother's general situation from Bai Yuekui, Mark became less polite. He suddenly grew taller, transforming into a nearly ten-foot-tall figure, and said to the Ghost Mother, "I don't care what your identity was before, but now you are my subordinate. Go into the water and do some work."

Seeing Mark's appearance, the Ghost Mother was surprised. She circled around him and laughed, "Are you also a monarch who was subdued by Jiang Liu?"

Why don't we join forces, attack Jiang Liu, and seize his Confucian Society?

"Stop dreaming. After you finish work, you can go back to dancing at the theater," Bai Yuekui said. "Mark isn't wearing a collar around his neck."

Upon hearing this, the Ghost Mother looked closely and, sure enough, didn't see the collar. She was furious and cursed, "I'm still Jiang Liu's mother! How dare you treat me like this!"
