The person who came was none other than the new emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty, the then crown prince Zhou Jingrui. After he saw Jiang Xiu, he even accelerated his pace and rushed over. He bowed deeply to Jiang Xiu and said, "Meet Jiang Shangxian."
Jiang Xiu took a look at him. After experiencing a huge change in the palace and taking over the entire country, he was much calmer than before. It seemed that he had completed his transformation from a young prince to a king.
"I didn't know that the arrival of immortals would be missed and welcomed from afar."
His attitude was as respectful as ever. This kind of respect would not be exaggerated if Zhou Jingrui knew that Jiang Xiu was Jiang Luoxia, the leader of the Tianxing Sect. But if Jiang Xiu was just an ordinary disciple of the Tianxing Sect, it would actually be very disrespectful in the eyes of the civil and military officials behind him. No, why should the dignified king of the Western Zhou Dynasty be so low-key
What's more, the Western Zhou Dynasty paid a huge amount for this. After years of fighting against Daliang, although Daliang was almost destroyed, most of the Western Zhou Dynasty was also destroyed.
Many ministers even suggested to Zhou Jingrui that instead of heading towards destruction bit by bit, if they were afraid of Jiang Xiu's accountability, they would join a sect. With a backer, would they still be afraid of Jiang Xiu
Jiang Xiu waved his hand gently and said, "Forget it."
"How did you go about what I told you?"
Zhou Jingrui's face flashed with embarrassment, and he said: "Prince Daliang is trying to do harm to the Immortal. He wants to destroy his Liang Kingdom according to the Immortal's instructions. I have never dared to neglect it. The Western Zhou Dynasty has not launched attacks on Daliang all the time, but... I just want to capture it. As a country, although the Western Zhou Dynasty had the upper hand, Daliang was not easily conquered."
"I have been entrusted by the Immortal."
Jiang Xiu remained indifferent. It was only a matter of a few clicks for Tianxing Sect to destroy a dynasty. Even Shen Kun only needed one stroke, let alone Jiang Xiu. Of course he was not satisfied with such a result. .
Not only Daliang was plotting against him, but the Western Zhou Dynasty was also involved. Attacking each other was Jiang Xiu's punishment for them. If they were murdered and bullied, who would be in awe if they didn't take action to scare them
Zhou Jingrui said: "I have held a banquet to welcome the immortal..."
Everything that was damaged in the palace has been repaired long ago, and the blood-stained floors were also cleaned. Everything in the imperial city is so natural and noble, which shows that Zhou Jingrui has taken good care of it.
Along the way, Ji Wuhua asked curiously: "Is there no sect controlling the dynasty here?"
The strength of the immortal cultivators in the royal family is really poor. Not to mention the large sects, medium-sized sects and even an ordinary small sect can easily conquer them.
Su Ying said: "I just looked through the sect records, and the closest one to here is Dao Haizong, the great sect."
"Dao Haizong?"
Ji Wuhua said: "How could such a large sect abandon this piece of land?"
Jiang Xiu was also surprised after hearing this, but he vaguely felt that this might be related to the history of this continent. In other words, it should be related to the goddess, otherwise he could not think of other reasons.
Zhou Jingrui held a banquet to welcome Jiang Xiu, and of course Daliang's delegation was left in the dark. At the banquet, many civil servants and military generals accompanied them, but no one spoke. It seemed that everyone present was very dissatisfied. Only Zhou Jingrui sang a one-man show.
One of the adults stood up: "Have you met Jiang Shangxian?"
Jiang Xiu glanced lightly.
"I am the Great Chief of the Western Zhou Dynasty. Back then, Daliang and the Western Zhou Dynasty collided with the Immortal. Now the two countries are fighting with countless casualties. Daliang has learned the lesson of nearly destroying the country. And I, the Western Zhou Dynasty, have also experienced a sharp decline in population and people are in dire straits. May I ask the Immortal, are you satisfied now? Yet?"
"Can you get the two to stop fighting?"
This was extremely harsh to say.
Jiang Xiu asked Zhou Jingrui, "Is this what you mean?"
Before Zhou Jingrui could speak, he heard a commotion outside the hall. A group of immortal cultivators wearing soap uniforms came in. There were seven or eight people in the group, and the leader was actually a great immortal. This made Jiang Xiu feel a little surprised. , when did the imperial palace of the Western Zhou Dynasty have such a strong force of cultivating immortals? If there was such a force, it would not be easy to destroy Daliang
"snort!"
The leader was a middle-aged man cultivating immortality. He snorted coldly as soon as he entered the palace. Zhou Jingrui stood up in a hurry, with a bit of panic in his eyes.
"Yang Shangxian, why are you here?"
Zhou Jingrui's attitude was equally respectful.
"If this immortal doesn't come, why don't you just stay in the palace?" The middle-aged man looked directly at Jiang Xiu, showing great disdain for Jiang Xiu and his party.
"I don't dare, I absolutely don't dare. It's not because the immortals are taking a rest and Jiang Shangxian is visiting, so that's why..." Zhou Jingrui explained with a changed expression.
It seems that he is very afraid of this group of people, even afraid of them. Of course, given the cultivation level of this group of people, Zhou Jingrui will certainly feel scared.
At the same time, there was deep helplessness in his eyes.
He made a subconscious frown.
"Are you Jiang Xiu, a disciple of the Tianxing Sect that Da Zai said?"
Jiang Xiu nodded slightly: "Who are you?"
The middle-aged man opposite looked away with disdain: "The young disciple of Tianxing Sect thinks that he is a figure, and he actually wants to control the fate of the two countries of Western Zhou Dynasty and Liang Dynasty."
The Great Zai of Western Zhou Dynasty lowered his head, but smiled happily.
"If the great prime minister of the Western Zhou Dynasty hadn't searched the nearby sects and finally found another Daohaizong and begged us for justice, I would never have known that a small disciple of the Tianxing sect could stretch his hand so far that he could reach the vicinity of our Daohaizong. The dynasty has come."
Zhou Jingrui looked quite ugly. After he succeeded to the throne, he started a war with Daliang, which was opposed by many people in the court. Especially they felt that Zhou Jingrui succumbed to Jiang Xiu's pressure before starting the war. After the war, the Western Zhou Dynasty suffered heavy losses. After their persuasion yielded no results, the powerful ministers thought of joining the big sects to fight against Jiang Xiu.
But for mortals like them, it is not easy to find a sect, and it is even more difficult to find a sect that dares to confront the Tianxing Sect. Dazai found many sects and painfully described the situation in the Western Zhou Dynasty, but many sects did not dare to Then, it was not until Daohaizong was approached that these people were invited. The price was that the Western Zhou Dynasty became a vassal state of Daohaizong, paying tribute every year and paying taxes every day.
They felt that this was better than following Jiang Xiu's order and destroying Daliang.
Jiang Xiu said calmly: "This place is above the sea, and there are no immortal cultivating forces behind the Western Zhou Dynasty. Why can't I control it?"
"presumptuous!"
A disciple behind middle-aged Yang Shangxian made an angry rebuke and looked at Jiang Xiu angrily.
"How dare you talk to my master like this?"
Ji Wuhua and Su Ying were both shocked. Are these people crazy? No, they shouldn't be crazy yet, but they will definitely go crazy if they know who they are facing.
They didn't want to interrupt. They ignored the matter and didn't care about it. They even looked at Jiang Xiu and glanced at Jiang Xiu. What they meant was, "Sir, someone is teasing you. What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Xiu said: "Then what should I say?"
Zhou Jingrui said hurriedly: "Sir, you must not quarrel over trivial matters. Yang Shangxian, please take a seat first."
This is not a trivial matter. Since Dao Haizong sent them to deal with Jiang Xiu's matter, there must be a result. In their view, they and Jiang Xiu are not a personal enemy, nor are they the so-called moral public welfare, but the Western Zhou Dynasty. There is a shortage of land in this continent. Since Daohaizong sent people here, they want to eat this continent.
If Jiang Xiu stopped in front of them, of course he would kick him away.
"Emperor of the Western Zhou Dynasty, wait a minute." The disciple surnamed Immortal Yang said: "The disciples of Suwen Tianxing Sect are extraordinary, and our Dao Haizong is also an ancient sect. Since we have bumped into each other, please come down and give us some tips."
Jiang Xiu smiled coldly and said, "Are you not worthy of letting me take action?"
"You..." The disciple threw down his loose sleeves angrily, "Boy, don't talk nonsense. I think you don't dare to fight with our Daohaizong disciples. In that case, get out of Western Zhou Dynasty." .”
The disciples on the side also looked at each other coldly, "Yes, get out of Western Zhou Dynasty."
The faces of the civil and military officials in the palace showed a look of gloating.
Jiang Xiu glanced at the group of people and asked, "Are you really going to force me to take action?"
Seeing Jiang Xiu's arrogant expression, Dao Haizong burst into laughter, especially the immortal named Yang, who shook his head secretly, as if he felt helpless that Jiang Xiu didn't know how to advance or retreat, and still wanted to show off his strength.
"Why, is it because we don't deserve it?"
Jiang Xiu said: "You are indeed unworthy."
"Then who is worthy? Maybe the elders of my sect will come to discuss with you in person."
Jiang Xiu said: "He doesn't deserve it either."
"Wow, do you want me, the leader of Daohaizong, to take action personally?"
