If the things in those extraterritorial ruins really involve existences at the mythological level, they are definitely not something I can get involved in now.

Suppress all the messy thoughts in your mind.

After Yang Zhao tried his best to calm down, he looked at the old man Hu An with a more friendly face and said, "Old man, why don't you come to Chang'an? You can save yourself from worry and effort, get the blessing of national destiny, comprehend the truth, and also let Cheng Yaojin get some experience and resources..."

Chapter 597 Yuan Tiangang: That King Zhao is too evil

Juan, no, it should be said that he is a fox. He is not only timid but also has no vision.

He has lived for more than 3,800 years, but he only dared to wander around the Wagang Mountains. He didn't even dare to have too much contact with people. The most he could do was to use the method of leaving his body to secretly learn some books and literature in the city at the foot of the mountain.

Under Yang Zhao's deception, Juan was in a daze and offered his true spirit, becoming Yang Zhao's subordinate.

For this little old man Juan.

Yang Zhao did not treat him badly. He directly granted him the blessing of the third rank of national fortune and named him the City God of Chang'an. After that, he built a temple and a shrine for him. Not only did he give him a home on earth, he also promised that after the underworld Dragon Court was opened up in the Sui Dynasty, he would allocate a section of the underworld cave heaven for him.

This kind of annihilation of both the person and the method, and even the title of turning him into a worker under his command, made old man Juan extremely happy.

After 3,800 years of desolate life in the mountains, old man Juan has long been tired of it.

Especially since it has been nearly a thousand years since Juan transformed, although his spirit can occasionally leave his body and quietly play in the human world, it is nothing compared to truly participating in the mundane world of the human world.

The gods are afraid of cause and effect and the secular world, but it is simply because they have no backing.

With Yang Zhao, the lord of Guanlong Dynasty, personally pardoning and conferring a title on Hu An, he was promoted to the third-rank idle official in the court. He was also given the title of City God of the Yin and Yang Realm of Chang'an. Hu An was well-versed in both the Yin and Yang realms, so he did not need to worry about any cause and effect.

All the causes and effects are tied to Yang Zhao.

As for obeying Yang Zhao from now on, Juan secretly glanced at the fairy white jade ring, and his heart trembled slightly. If he wanted to curry favor with someone so powerful, wouldn't it be natural for him to do some work?

Juan is very timid and has little knowledge.

But at 3,800 years old, Juan sees things more clearly than anyone else in the world, and knows what kind of thigh is most worth hugging.

Wagang Mountain? Just some bandits who have gained a fortune for three to five years during the chaotic times.

Yang Guang? How could a tyrannical and ungrateful emperor of the last days be compared with the great monarch recognized by heaven and earth?

The Li family? Even the ancestors who returned from the immortal world rebelled.

Guandong family? If these people don't learn their lesson, I'm afraid they will all die miserably.

Yang Zhao has his own plans, and Juan has his own little thoughts.

Both parties finished the negotiation happily.

As Juan waved his hand gently, the dream that shrouded Yang Zhao and Juan completely dissipated and returned to Suzaku Street.

What made Yang Zhao feel strange was that he had been in the dream world for quite some time, but when he returned to the real world, it seemed that only a cup of tea had passed.

The ancient art of Qigong is indeed somewhat mysterious.

"Old man, we have a very pleasant conversation. Before the Chang'an City God Temple is built, why don't you stay in the Daxing Palace first, so that I can entertain you."

"No, no, how dare I live with you?"

"Then, I will appoint Cheng Yaojin as the Qianniu Guard and rank him as the fifth-rank giant captain. He can then build his own army. I will grant him a residence in Chang'an, and he can temporarily live with Captain Cheng. How do you think?"

"This is good, this is good. Thank you very much, Your Highness."

In full view.

Yang Zhao and Juan reached an agreement after some conversation.

He was one of the top fighters among the heroes and joined Yang Zhao's camp on the spot, and also took away a general from Wagangzhai.

Cheng Yaojin: "..."

Am I an official now? Or a fifth-rank giant commander who can unify the army?

For a moment, the scene on Suzaku Street was extremely strange.

The faces of the heroes were extremely grim. Three of the five top fighters had already died on the spot before they even entered the Daxing Palace.

Yang Zhao is a poisonous person.

At this moment, even Wang Meng and Yuan Tiangang's faces turned dark, and they became fully alert, fearing that something unexpected would happen and they would be caught in the act in Chang'an City.

"Brother Yaojin, you have become successful. You have been appreciated by King Zhao, which means you have made a name for yourself."

"Hehe, I'm lucky. It's all because of me, Old Cheng, who is lucky."

"Brother Yaojin, well, are you going back to Wagang?"

"Well, Brother Qin, why don't we go back and call Brother Shan, that Youda guy and the others to Chang'an. With my master's support, and King Zhao also knows what's good, we brothers can all become rich."

"Brother Yaojin, it's not a good idea for you to poach people in front of me, the second in command."

"Hey, Second Master, although I look like a rough man, I am a meticulous person. Are you an undercover sent by King Zhao?"

"..."

Damn, is this something that can be said in front of everyone?

Li Mi's face turned black, but Cheng Yaojin, Qin Qiong, Luo Cheng and others were making a lot of noise and looked quite happy.

Watch this scene.

In the Li Clan, Liu Wenjing's eyes turned and he said, "Second Master, Master Zheng and Master Cui, it seems that the people of Wagang Village will all be under the command of King Zhao. Now that the alliance has broken down, we should make preparations early and cannot stay in Chang'an for long."

"Humph!"

Zheng Jibo snorted angrily and said, "If it weren't for the powerful man who entered the dream occupying Wagang Village, what achievements would a group of bandits and the like have made? That Yang Zhao is also short-sighted."

Li Shimin looked unhappy. He always felt as if he was living in Yang Zhao's shadow.

In the Wagang Camp, Xu Shiji, Wei Zheng, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Youda and others were all good ministers and brave generals that he valued. As long as they were given enough resources and trained a little, they would definitely become the backbone of the army.

But now, everyone was wiped out.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin looked at the old man Hu An with resentment.

Now everyone knows that the little old man Juan is the biggest backer on Wagang Mountain and a strong man who is above the ceiling of Martial Saint.

It was just a conversation with Yang Zhao for a cup of tea.

Is it so easy to be recruited?

Where is your backbone? Where is your pride as the top fighter in the world?

Damn it, can a crappy City God Temple buy you off?

You should have told me earlier.

Do you look down on my Li family? It's just a City God Temple. If you need it, I will build you a Palace of Supreme Heaven.

Heaven has been so cruel to me.

Even Li Shimin, who had always been very motivated, couldn't help but feel a little dejected at this moment.

He also tested Yang Zhao's strength and took the opportunity to destroy Chang'an.

This is bullshit. It's unknown whether we can return alive from this trip.

The power of the heroes has completely collapsed.

But this time.

Wang Meng, however, had a gleam in his eye as he stared at Yang Zhao intently, and seemed to be determined to move forward.

Yuan Tiangang grabbed Wang Meng and said, "Senior, let's just forget it."

Wang Meng was furious and asked, "Yuan Tiangang, do you think I am also a spineless person?"

Yuan Tiangang shook his head and said helplessly: "Senior, it's just that King Zhao is too evil."

Wang Meng: “…”

Chapter 598: Zi Yang Zhenren's sneak attack

If someone said that Yang Zhao was not an evil person, no one present would disbelieve it.

On the side of the heroes, there are five top-level fighters who come to support the battle, but if one of them leaves, he will "rebel" on the spot.

People like Li Hanyi and Li Bai who don't help each other are still considered good.

People like the old man Juan directly became Yang Zhao's man and even pulled his own good ministers and generals over to him.

It is simply Liliyuanshangpu.

Yuan Tiangang knew what Wang Meng wanted to do, because Yuan Tiangang himself had also noticed that the way Yang Zhao had spread out his palms and gathered Li Hanyi's thousands of sword energies was very much like the legendary world in the palm of your hand.

If it was just a secret technique, neither Wang Meng nor Yuan Tiangang would care.

But when one has cultivated to the level of Wang Meng and Yuan Tiangang, they can naturally tell what are secret techniques and what are innate supernatural powers.

On Yang Zhao’s left hand, both Wang Meng and Yuan Tiangang saw the direction of the new martial arts path.

This is not an exaggeration, but a fact.

Wang Meng was the prime minister of the Former Qin Dynasty hundreds of years ago. He once relied on his own strength to pull the entire Former Qin Dynasty to dominate the world and almost unified the Central Plains.

Yuan Tiangang has also lived for more than three hundred years and controls an intelligence organization like the Bad People. There is nothing in the world that he can hide from them.

The alternative path to enlightenment is really too difficult.

In the entire Kyushu world over the past two thousand years, the number of people who have been able to achieve enlightenment in an alternative way is definitely no more than five fingers.

Moreover, every person who achieves enlightenment in an alternative way will inevitably block a large path for future generations.

Therefore, whenever there is any sign of a new path or a future in martial arts, people like Wang Meng and Yuan Tiangang, who have lived for a long time and cannot get close, will definitely rush forward like moths to a flame.

Yuan Tiangang suspected that Li Hanyi, Li Bai and Hu An had fallen in this way.

If there were no powerful forces like Li Shimin and Jiang Song behind him, Yuan Tiangang could not guarantee that he would not be controlled by Yang Zhao.

But now, his team absolutely cannot afford to lose another top-level fighter.

What if Wang Meng also fell into Yang Zhao's control.

In this wave of visitors, the most elite group of geniuses will probably be completely finished in Chang'an.

At the very least, we should send these people back to their respective forces before we talk about other things.

Wang Meng was such a smart man that he understood Yuan Tiangang's concerns just by looking at his eyes, and he immediately began to hesitate and struggle.

Different from Li Hanyi, Li Bai, Hu An and Yuan Tiangang.

Li Hanyi and Yuan Tiangang were both entangled in the ties of friendship among the powerful forces, and owed favors to them. They came here to repay their debts.

Li Bai was the ancestor of the former Li family, and it was his duty to protect his descendants.

This old man Juan is too mysterious, but his destiny is vaguely connected with that of Cheng Yaojin, and he is also an inescapable constraint.

But Wang Meng is different.

Wang Meng had been guarding the peak of the Martial Saint ceiling for more than a hundred years, and he was almost going crazy. After being quiet for a long time, he wanted to move, so he came out of the seclusion and was treated by Xiahou Dou Jiande. With a casual attitude, he joined the team of guests.

Wang Meng himself did not owe Dou Jiande anything, he just felt that this man was capable, so he helped him.

And just when Wang Meng was extremely conflicted.

Beside Yang Zhao, a shadow that seemed to have become nothingness suddenly appeared, and a profound, strange, ancient book was opened in its hand. Suddenly, countless ghost shadows broke through the air from the book, gathered into a dark torrent, and bombarded a place in the void.

Rumble!

Accompanied by bursts of rumbling sounds in the void, a powerful man emitting pure yang energy was forced out of the void by the ghost shadows in the sky.

Yang Zhao glanced at the figure indifferently without saying a word.

The Ghost Shadow Patriarch sneered, and flashed into the void, standing opposite to the Purple Sun Master, and said with a cold look in his eyes: "Purple Sun Master, you are also a Taoist master from the Great Sui Realm, and have been famous for more than a hundred years. Such behavior is too despicable."

The one who was blasted out of the void by the Ghost Shadow Ancestor was none other than the martial saint-level fighter, True Man Zi Yang, who had suddenly disappeared among the group of heroes.

True Man Zi Yang's cultivation seems to be even stronger than that of Mu Qingliu and Mo Yiming.

Even if it was Xiang Yutian, before he broke through to the second step of the Martial Saint ceiling, he would probably be suppressed and beaten by Master Zi Yang.

But if facing the Ghost Shadow Ancestor, True Man Zi Yang would appear much weaker.

The Ghost Shadow Ancestor just casually used a secret technique, attacking with the ghost shadows in the Ghost Codex and the Dark Book, and made Zi Yang Zhenren look miserable. His originally gorgeous purple Taoist robe was now full of pits and holes corroded by the dark energy, making him look like a ragged beggar.

After seeing the cultivation level of this Ghost Shadow Ancestor.
