"But in my opinion, Mr. Kong Rui, you are the one who doesn't know how to live or die!"
Following the sound came a middle-aged man in silver armor. Holding a long spear with red tassel, he walked from the night.
Those red flames illuminated the entire Jinling City as if it were dawn. He also dyed the silver armor on this person crimson red.
The momentum was great, and they were hundreds of feet away, but Kong Rui's soul had been locked with the intent of the spear. That majestic energy suppressed the Temple of Heaven even more firmly.
"It turns out that you were waiting to cause trouble at night, and your target was actually me!"
Kong Rui suddenly realized that the dozens of fires at night only diverted the attention of Daqian and the powerful men of Cangsheng Dao Sword Sect.
And the purpose of these people has been him, Kong Rui, from beginning to end.
There was no sign of nervousness, but after Kong Rui thought for a moment, he still wondered: "It doesn't seem worth it to fight like this and pay such a price for just me?"
The fires in more than a dozen residential buildings may seem simple. However, under the strict defense of Qianjun, the man on the opposite side used many connections and strong men, and suffered even more heavy sacrifices afterwards.
And he, Kong Rui, is just a small Si Tianjianzheng, and has no effect on the defense of Jinling City.
Ming Rixuan twitched the corners of his lips and wondered, could this be a fan of the authorities
The silver-armored middle-aged man also explained casually: "Why is it not worth it? With Mr. Kong Rui, I am sure that my wife will carefully consider the future of your father and daughter at Baisheng Pass!"
Kong Rui was startled, it turned out it was for Kong Yao, but he almost forgot this section. Looking at this situation, he is trying to capture himself in order to hold Yao'er hostage.
This move really hits the mark.
With Yao'er's temperament, she would never betray Zong Shou. But if I make any mistakes, I will definitely feel guilty and even follow myself.
Kong Rui was slightly angry in his heart, but he calmed down again. On the contrary, he felt that it was ridiculous.
"Why is this so? What's the benefit of your Yang family's rebellion at this time? When we return to the rule of Dashang, it's hard for Emperor Yin Yu to tolerate you? At this time, you need to be aware of the political situation of Dashang. Yes. On the contrary, I, Da Gan, have not caused any trouble to your Yang family. The outcome of the battle between Shang and Gan has not yet been determined. Do you think Yue Ninghou is taking a risk with his actions today?"
This person's title in Dashang two thousand years ago was Yue Ning Hou, named Yang Sheng, and he was one of the core members of the Yang family in Jiangnan.
The middle-aged man in silver armor walked forward, but there was a series of "clicking" sounds coming from the spiritual barrier outside the altar.
Although there is a protective formation near the Temple of Heaven, it is only set up for emergencies. In front of a saint-level powerhouse like him, he was like a thin layer of paper. Tear into pieces effortlessly.
"Never been in trouble? What a good person who has never been in trouble!"
Yue Ninghou's face was full of ridicule: "Since Daqian took over, 70% of the land controlled by our Yang family was cut off. 90% of all the officials' sons were dismissed. The shops everywhere are also struggling to operate. , is this what you said about not being in trouble? As for Dashang, since His Majesty Yuan Chen wants my Yang family to contribute, then naturally he has made a promise and needs to pay some price - "
Kong Rui couldn't help frowning: "Equalizing the land is my national policy! But it is not taken by force, but purchased at an equal price. At this time, the financial resources are limited, and it is only in arrears for the time being. Your Majesty, he has always promised a thousand pieces of gold, and he is a holy king in this world. The world respects you. How could I break my trust with you! As for dismissal from office, don’t embarrass those corrupt and dandy sons of your family. In the future, officials will be elected by the people. With your Yang family’s local reputation and power, it will be easy. As for doing business, it is really impossible. Method. You, the Yang family, are used to being overbearing and overbearing. If you combine government and business and do business seriously, you will naturally be at a loss. You need to replace some truly talented people - "
"shut up!"
Yang Sheng gave a cold shout and forcibly interrupted Kong Rui's words.
"No matter how nice you say it, but if things continue like this, our Yang family will fall apart in just a few hundred years! It's just that you will die early and die later. Your Majesty Yuan Chen, now that you are in charge of twelve bronze men, why should our Yang family have to wait for death in peace?"
Kong Rui suddenly became speechless. This time, Yue Ninghou really hit the point.
Zong Shou's method is to cut flesh with a soft knife. These aristocratic families may be able to maintain themselves at first.
However, after a few hundred years, it will disappear.
"But you can't answer?"
Yang Sheng took another step forward and was only ten feet away from the Temple of Heaven.
Only the last layer of spiritual barrier still blocks the front.
"Actually, why bother to persuade again? Now that we are at war with each other, we, the Yang family, and Daqian have no room for maneuver. If Kong Rui is willing to let go without causing any trouble, I, Yang Sheng, can also guarantee that I will never harm him unless forced to do so. Mr. Hairless."
Just as he was saying this, he saw Kong Rui shaking his head with a strange look on his face, and then looked across the way at the strange cultivator wearing a nine-ridged star crown and a scarlet cloud feather coat.
I was thinking about who this person was. Judging from his dress, he seemed to be an alchemist.
Kong Rui asked, "Do you know the identity of the person in front of me?"
Before Yang Sheng could answer, Kong Rui had already answered: "This person is named Ming Rixuan. He is a legendary alchemist from ancient times. His achievements are only inferior to Xu Fu's. However, when it comes to the art of magic, it is The first person ten thousand years ago. Presumably Hou Yue Ning has also heard of it?"
Yang Sheng's expression gradually condensed. Others may not know Ming Ri Xuan, but as one of the five great clans, he is well known.
The person in front of me is really Mingri Xuan, what is he doing here
However, I heard Kong Rui smile faintly: "The layman intends to serve as an official in the imperial court. As a national teacher, he will protect the Dharma for His Majesty. Kong Rui has agreed to introduce-"
There was no warmth in the smile, and naturally there was no trace of panic at all, and it was full of ridicule.
Yang Sheng was shocked and shocked, Ming Rixuan? National Division
The legendary Ming Ri Xuan layman is the world's top master of magic.
Eight thousand years ago, there were almost no mistakes in predicting the future and deducing the past.
Only then did he become famous, shocking the five continents of the Cloud Realm.
Such a person should know the good and evil, and see the good and bad fortune. So at this time. What is the reason for becoming an official in the dynasty, a country with internal and external troubles and difficult times
correct! In addition to his magic skills, this person's strength was equally impressive before Yunhuang! Almost chasing Xu Fulongying, the ultimate saint-level strongman!
This person is here, then myself—
Then I saw the monk wearing a feather robe and a star crown, turning his head with the same strange expression.
"Are you, the Yang family, all idiots?"
This short sentence made Yang Sheng feel frightened and inexplicable. Not only this sentence, but also because of the surrounding Qi, it suddenly became thicker.
The spiritual energy is restless, the breath is circulating, and it is close to being cut off at this moment.
This is the way of destiny!
Yang Sheng's pupils suddenly shrank. Subconsciously, he remembered the words of one of his great-uncles when he described Ming Rixuan's Divine Secret of Destiny.
-If a person is unlucky, he may choke to death even if he drinks water!
At this time, he was filled with flawless immortal power, and he was on the verge of going berserk.
The most unlikely situation happened in his body at this time.
For a moment, he couldn't move and could only stare blankly in front of him.
"As you said, you don't know whether to live or die! With His Majesty's temperament, are you afraid that the Jiangnan Yang family will be completely exterminated?"
When Ming Rixuan talked, he only thought of him as a wealthy and powerful family. Generally no longer exists.
"uncertain!"
Kong Rui laughed. He said disapprovingly: "Your Majesty abides by the law, especially the laws set by himself. He will not be involved or dealt with arbitrarily. But since it is a serious crime of rebellion, no matter what the fate of the Yang family, no one else can say anything. .”
"The laws? In other words, as long as you are one of his subjects and do not violate his laws, then no matter how you offend him, you will be safe?"
Ming Rixuan was thoughtful, and when he saw Kong Rui smiled and said nothing, he already knew the answer. Suddenly he chuckled.
"Even several holy emperors in ancient times did not have such a broad mind! No wonder he is a living holy king."
Then he sighed and said, "It's really a pity. In fact, it's only a few days away. The winner is not yet decided, so he rushes out. Even if it takes a while and asks for more price, a single thought will lead to the disaster of annihilation. The entire Yang family will be wiped out." Up and down, they are all stupid—"
Yang Sheng was furious when he heard this, but still couldn't make any move. Although his spiritual consciousness was in a state of mind, he could no longer control the energy of his whole body.
Not only in the physical body, but also in the body, the conflict between the immortal powers became more and more intense. This is true even within the soul. The foundation of the Dao is floating, and the sea of souls is shaking endlessly.
Gradually, a few traces of blood appeared in the seven orifices.
Kong Rui looked surprised and looked towards the opposite side in confusion.
Ming Rixuan was calm and wrote lightly: "Do you know that what I practice is the ancient method of measuring the sky and determining fortune?"
Seeing Kong Rui nod, Ming Rixuan continued: "I am good at predicting fate. So on July 14th, the first year of Shenwu, at the Temple of Heaven in Jinling, Yue Ninghou Yangsheng in front of the Great Shang died due to Daoji clashing with evil spirits!"
As soon as the word "die" fell out, a large ball of blood burst out from between Yang Sheng's mouth and nose.
Kong Rui was also slightly absent-minded. He knew that Master Minglixuan was the most powerful man in the world, and he had reached the realm in half a step.
His strength is only at the extreme level.
However, this Yang Sheng was still in the early stage of the Saint Realm. Three thousand years to become a saint, his talent is not weak.
But in front of Ming Rixuan, there is no way he can't even resist at all!
It is simply a matter of deciding life and death. I am afraid that not even those supreme saints can do this.
Is it a blessing or a curse for me to introduce this person to Daqian
"Don't think too much, just take advantage of the situation!"
It seems that he also saw what Kong Rui was thinking, and Ming Rixuan gave a concise and concise explanation.
"This man's destined lifespan actually only has seven days left. It's just that in my hands, his death was slightly advanced. Didn't Kong Jianzheng say that calling the wind and rain in this Jiangnan land at this time may not necessarily be against the will of heaven? Do you want to do something? Ming Rixuan will try to borrow this person's life, and it will end like this. The loss of my life span is insignificant - "
Kong Rui's eyes suddenly brightened: "Then in other words -"
Ming Rixuan nodded: "Da Shang will die in seven days, so Yang Sheng will also die miserably! In short, Yin Yu will not live long. I just don't know how to use it, Your Majesty!"
As Yang Sheng listened, his heart was filled with turmoil!
The great merchant will perish in seven days, and he will die in seven days? How can this be
There are also people in the Yang family who are good at observing stars, but the results of their calculations are completely different from these two.
At this time, Emperor Yuan Chen should have been at the peak of his powers! RS
