It's the beauty that brings disaster. I'm also desperate.

That's right.

A few years ago, Shengsheng had already completed the True Gathering and entered the Sixth Level. So now her cultivation speed is slower than a snail.

Fortunately, Shengsheng has already let it go.

A month ago, she took advantage of the disturbance caused by Ku Longyin to bring up the topic of another sword in the zither, Spring Thunder. The long-speculated situation finally got an answer... Since the Spring Thunder Sword is still in Jiang You's hands, it means that the gift of the sword never happened.

here......

It’s the past!

It is an ancient era buried by the sands of time!

It was not an illusion, nor was it the special power with memory that was stirred up when the peacock sacrificed itself and shattered into pieces.

——I wonder how far away we are from the era when Chichan lived?

——My Mingjin pot should be in the hands of the previous owner, or it may not have been born yet.

Shengsheng hopes it is the former, she has already made up her mind.

She wants to use the power of the Jiang family, one of the top wealthy families in the Shengxia Dynasty, to find the previous owner of the pot and "borrow" the other party's broken pot... Therefore, the goal now is no longer to find Jiang You to confirm any guesses, but to establish a good relationship with the other party.

Have closer friendships!

This matter.

It’s not difficult for Shengsheng.

"Ningyun."

Shengsheng was eating breakfast while greeting Jiang You. Since they became friends more than half a year ago, Shengsheng found that Jiang You was actually quite approachable, except that he looked cold.

"...You're so busy this morning~."

The girl asked casually as she threw a grape-shaped spiritual fruit into her mouth.

Usually, the two of them would finish their morning breathing together.

After she finished her work today, she found that the other party was already reviewing documents at the desk.

Jiang You, who was writing something in a booklet, paused slightly when he heard the words, but did not turn around and continued with his previous actions.

"...The country of Izumo is in turmoil again. The Chen Liu clan has been struggling in Izumo in recent years. They want to move away or ask the Kong Sang clan to send troops for support."

Jiang You answered Shengsheng's questions while writing.

She described it in detail...

in fact.

The Chen Liu clan of Izumo is considered a big clan among the Jiang clan, otherwise they would not be sent to guard the Izumo area, which is a very important pass fortress.

At the same time, information about Chen Liu generally cannot be disclosed to outsiders!

"Ningyun."

"We heard that Izumo is the holy land of the demon race. Are the demons there very powerful?"

It has been almost six years since I came to this era.

Shengsheng also fully understood the status of the human race in this era.

——No doubt about it, it’s so high!

Sublime high!

No matter whether it is demons, corpses, ghosts, goblins or other kinds of strange creatures... they all have to crawl at the feet of humans.

Submit to the rule of successive [Emperor Nuwa].

In this era.

The status of aliens is extremely lowly.

For example, if a monster is not a slave of a human family, no matter how powerful your strength is, you may become a dish at a banquet in a restaurant in Chiyang City one day.

or.

It was carefully cooked and served to the tables of the noble men and ladies.

In short, it is very difficult to be a free demon.

so......

Shengsheng just asked if the big monster from Chuyun Country was so powerful that it made Chen Liu's life difficult.

Under such a strong human environment, it is possible to achieve such a level. It is conceivable that it would not be possible without considerable strength.

"Izumo Country, the pilgrimage site for the free demon race."

"...There are indeed some ancient and powerful demon fairies there."

Having said this, Jiang You paused.

The conversation turned.

"But even the most ancient and powerful demon immortals are nothing compared to our clan. The current emperor doesn't care. Any one of the three immortal officials can suppress them."

"The troubles in the Chen Liu clan mainly come from within the human race."

"Ah? Our internal?"

This was the first time Shengsheng heard such a statement and she was a little surprised.

"Yes."

"It is a good thing that the Izumo Kingdom protects all monsters. However, because of this practice, monsters from all over the world flock to the country..."

Jiang You was very patient with the girl.

She was usually cold and taciturn, but when she sensed the other person's confusion, she explained it in detail.

original.

Izumo Province is located in the southern region.

The Southern Territory is vast and boundless. Even if all the monsters in the world gathered here, it would not be crowded at all.

But the problem is not the territory, but the greed of human beings.

Although the status of monsters is extremely low...but the demand for monsters is very strong among families of all classes and sizes.

No matter they are beautiful and delicate, or demon slaves with special racial talents.

The high-quality fur coats worn by the nobles, the delicacies on the dining table, and so on.

These are all in short supply...

The successive Nuwa emperors issued clear orders prohibiting the poaching, trafficking and smuggling of monsters.

It is also forbidden to use any coercive or harsh means to force the demons to commit crimes... Such methods can achieve the purpose of forcing the other party into a desperate situation and selling themselves into slavery.

Of course.

There are laws from the top and strategies from the bottom.

Especially in the southern region of Izumo, which is far away from the imperial capital, those places have long been corrupted by interests.

The current Emperor Nuwa [Emperor Chuyu] repeatedly dispatched the chief officer...

Either they were robbed and killed by unknown strong men on the way, or they disappeared a few months after they left. If nothing happened, it means that this person has become corrupt for various reasons, either voluntarily or involuntarily.

In the 37th year of Yuanyan.

Si Mi could no longer tolerate this, so she went on a secret visit to the southern region.

She tore the darkness there to pieces...but just half a year after she left, a dark web was woven again, covering the country of Izumo.

Si Mi was the Queen of the current dynasty, so it was naturally impossible for her to stay there for a long time.

The only people who have the strength to stay in Chuyun Kingdom and not be poisoned by various conspiracies are the top cultivators like the Three Immortal Officials and Xia Xiang.

These people, like Si Mi, also shoulder more important responsibilities for the Shengxia Dynasty.

finally.

Jiang Hui felt sorry for her sister Wenming and volunteered to share her worries... She sent Jiang Qi from Chen Liu, the third most powerful master of the Jiang clan after her and Jiang Ying.

Moreover, the other party is not alone.

Instead, he gathered most of the masters of the Jiang clan, changed their clan names and integrated them into the Chen Liu clan, and went to the Izumo Kingdom together.

It is equivalent to devoting half of the Jiang family's strength to suppress the Southern Territory Chuyun for the Emperor... Letting those masters change their clan names is a compensation to the Chen Liu family.

Unfortunately.

This move blocked the financial path of countless people, as well as the enjoyment of all nobles, big and small!

After the Jiang and Chen Liu clan went there, they were targeted almost every day. There were several waves of attacks of varying intensities in the clan territory every month...If the people there were not so strong, they would have collapsed long ago.

In this way, they held on for nearly a hundred years.

The original group of masters were either dead or injured...those who survived naturally became elites, but their numbers were obviously scarce, and finally they reached a point where they were stretched to the limit.

and so.

Only then did he ask for help from the main branch of the Kongsang clan.

"I see."

——It turns out that Jiang Hui is the biggest Tengu I have ever seen.

After listening to Jiang You's detailed explanation, the girl felt deeply the horror of Tengu.

Even if it means sacrificing half of the family...

——But, the object of their dedication is Queen Nuwa.

This act is loyal to the emperor and serves the country.

After death, if one could really meet his ancestors, they would have nothing to say.

Chapter 49 Jiang You

"Ningyun, what are you Jiang family going to do now?"

"I suggest reporting to His Majesty and asking her to put pressure on the nobles in the imperial capital..."

Hearing Sheng Sheng's question, Jiang You said what was in his mind without thinking much.

She talked freely.

It seems that there is a plan.

"If possible, it would be best to send another group of palace guards to help."

"but......"

"Huh? But what?"

Jiang You shook his head lightly and did not answer. He suddenly cut off the topic and continued to review the documents.

There are some things that cannot be said.

It's not that she can't tell Feng Li, but as the daughter of Si Mi and Jiang Hui, she has no right to talk about her own parents. This is a big violation of etiquette...

Even if you think about it this way, it’s actually not right.

original.

The news of Chen Liu's predicament had been reported back a month ago...but Jiang Hui didn't want to trouble Di Chuyu, worried that these trivial matters would affect his practice.

Not bad!

The most important duty of every emperor in history was not to govern the world.

Whether it is governing the world or guarding the world...

These are the responsibilities of Xia Xiang and the three immortal officials, while the most important responsibility of Queen Nuwa is only one - cultivation.

Be free from worries and practice diligently.

Only when their strength can match the throne respected by all races can they truly protect the human race.

And because of the special reason of the [Mingjinhu], the national utensil handed down by Empress Nuwa.

Their progress before a certain realm is so fast that no one can match it, but after entering that realm, the way of cultivation will be reversed. If they cannot break through that realm in one fell swoop...their situation will become more and more difficult.
