Ji Wuhou is a cultivator in the Mahayana stage with a good cultivation base, and he has a seat among the top four of Xiangwu.
This man was born into a family of immortal cultivators. His mother was a princess of the Xiangwu royal family. He had been jumping back and forth between his family and the royal family since he was young, and developed a personality that allowed him to get along with everyone. He was a typical peacemaker.
Generally speaking, when the other three Mahayana masters were fighting, he would jump out and shout a few words.
Hey, stop fighting!
To be fair, this kind of person is actually quite annoying, but Yang Dian, one of the parties involved, speaks highly of him, because given the national conditions of Xiangwu, there must be a peacemaker of sufficient weight.
Ji Wuhou is powerful enough and has royal blood, so he is the most suitable person to be a peacemaker.
Shangyao City, the address of the Ji family.
Yang Dian begged hard and finally got Lu Bei's consent. He entered the Ji family mansion alone and met Ji Wuhou in the family's secret realm.
This was a middle-aged man with a slightly thin figure, gentle and friendly. Upon hearing that Yang Dian was coming, he hurriedly ended his retreat and meditation, took off his shoes and greeted him barefoot.
"Brother Yang, what's the wind blowing today that has sent you, the leader of Hualong Pavilion, to Ji's residence?" Ji Wuhou laughed and ordered his men to prepare wine and drinks so that he could fight with his best friend to the death.
Yang Dian had a worried look on his face, and he got straight to the point: "Although the wine and drinks at my house are good, I am not lucky enough to enjoy them. To be honest, something big happened in the capital."
"Seriously?"
"It's a matter of life and death."
Yang Dian's face straightened. He knew the peacemaker's nature very well, so he raised the seriousness of the problem to the highest level right from the start: "Hualong Pavilion was attacked, the royal secret realm was stolen, and the attackers were very powerful. I am far from being their opponent. Based on the clues at hand, this matter is very likely related to Qin Shiwen."
"There is such a thing!"
Ji Wuhou was horrified, and after asking a few questions, he learned that Emperor Xiangwu had ordered that the case be handed over to Yang Dian for handling. He could not help but say, "Brother Yang, with your sick body, how can you be a match for Qin Shiwen? If you catch the thief and seize the stolen goods, aren't you walking into a trap?"
"Hahaha, my dear brother, you underestimated Yang."
Yang Dian laughed complacently and stroked his beard: "Qin Shiwen can attract evil spirits, so I can naturally invite righteous people. Now the helpers have arrived, and we just need the location of Qin Shiwen. I will trouble you to give me more guidance, so that I can solve the case as soon as possible and give an explanation to His Majesty."
Who are those friends of yours? How come they are here so soon? Wasn’t the secret realm of the imperial city robbed last night
Peacemakers are best at fishing in troubled waters. If the water is not muddy, they will stir it themselves. People with this ability are naturally not stupid. They noticed the flaw in Yang Dian’s words and smiled slightly.
"Brother Yang is right. The Imperial City Secret Realm is a big deal, and we should have given His Majesty an explanation as soon as possible. It just so happens that I know where Qin Shiwen is, so I will accompany you there."
"Brother, you don't want to practice anymore?" Yang Dian looked strange.
"It's nothing serious. I'll be back soon and it won't take much time."
"But… "
"No problem, let's go now without further delay."
Ji Wuhou observed the words and expressions and instantly understood the reason for the situation. If his guess was correct, there was no such thing as a righteous person, and the secret realm of the imperial city had not been stolen. Everything was just Yang Dian's own talk, and he wanted to find clues about Qin Shiwen from him.
There is no need to explain the reason. Qin Shiwen escaped from prison and committed crimes. Yang Dian went to question him. They had to fight again after many years.
As Xiangwu's number one peacemaker and with a secret order from the royal family, he naturally had to go to the scene in person to mediate the grievances between the two.
After a cup of tea.
Ji Wuhou's face was pale, he was kneeling on the ground with trembling hands, his clothes were disheveled, his hair was messy, and he was seriously injured.
On the opposite side, Yang Dian was too embarrassed to face anyone. He lowered his head in shame and remained silent.
Lu Bei stood in front of Ji Wuhou, and on his left and right, there were people about 1.2 meters tall, glaring and baring their teeth. The Gu family's carriage looked down from above, with a cold gaze and words of mercy.
[You defeated Ji Wuhou and gained 1.5 billion experience points. After judging the opponent's level, the difference is greater than 20 levels, and you are awarded 1.5 billion experience points]
"Yang Dian, is this the righteous man you mentioned?"
Ji Wuhou was furious. He was sitting at home when disaster struck. The key point was that he was betrayed by his own people, which really made him sick.
You, Yang Dian, are indeed a hypocritical hypocrite!
Yang Dian hesitated for a long time, and finally said: "Brother, I have advised you not to go out, but you insisted..."
"Shut up, Ji doesn't have a brother like you!"
"… "
Yang Dian blushed with shame and really shut up.
"Why, he told you not to speak, and you kept silent? I've never seen you so obedient in front of me."
Lu Bei sneered twice, squatted in front of Ji Wuhou and shook his fist: "And you kid, do you have any misunderstandings about righteous people?"
He presented facts and reasoned with others, and in physical communication, he won people over with his virtue and occupied the moral high ground.
It is more about putting it into practice and integrating knowledge and action.
From a literal point of view, this is called having both virtue and morality, and there is nothing wrong with being a righteous person.
Ji Wuhou sneered: "What a righteous man! If my guess is correct, the three thieves who broke into the imperial city at night and attacked Hualong Pavilion were the ones."
"You are accusing a good person without any evidence. I hate people like you who confuse right and wrong the most."
Lu Bei got the experience and was too lazy to talk nonsense with Ji Wuhou: "Your Majesty has ordered that Qin Shiwen broke into the imperial city and caused chaos in the capital with his accomplices in the evil way. He also slept in the dragon bed and molested the concubines. It is not an exaggeration to say that her crimes are too numerous to list. Tell her where she is immediately, otherwise you will be counted as a traitor as well."
Marquis Ji Wu gritted his teeth and glared at this evil thief. Not only did he steal the secrets of the imperial city, he even slept on the dragon bed at night, destroying the peace of the harem.
"Don't look at me, Qin Shiwen did it."
Lu Bei secretly cursed his bad luck, blaming himself for being too eager to get the upper hand. Now that he had the experience, Ji Wuhou refused to cooperate, and it was quite difficult to get information from him.
There is no other way, I can only use the old method!
"I will count to three. If you don't behave yourself, I will go to the Ji family in Shangyao City and put your whole family in a neat row. I will tie up all the men and arrest all the women in front of me..."
"Ahem."
Yang Dian coughed repeatedly, his face turned red, and he coughed out tears.
Brother, please, please restrain yourself!
After the matter was done, Xuanwu patted his butt and left. No matter how severe the flood was, he, Yang, still had to serve the country in Xiangwu!
If the current situation continues to develop, he will no longer have to worry about whether to serve as a good minister or a loyal minister. He can just choose between a treacherous minister or a powerful minister.
Lu Bei curled his lips and swallowed back the words of Emperor Wu of Wei, "Since I can't see Qin Shiwen today, I will use your whole family to take the blame. Your Majesty will definitely execute your entire family, no, you will be punished with nine generations of your clan."
Ji Wuhou had practiced for many years and was a powerful figure in Xiangwu. He had never seen a strong man as shameless as Lu Bei. He was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He glared at Yang Dian and cooperated in telling him where Qin Shiwen was.
Yuan'an City.
This city was a fief of Ji Wuhou.
Qin Shiwen was dragged by Yang Dian and sent to the capital prison. After escaping from prison, he wanted to go to another country to live a carefree life. Ji Wuhou showed up and blocked his way. He appealed to his emotions and reason, awakening his burning patriotism and reluctantly kept him.
In order to prevent Yang Dian from being unreasonable, he was secretly sent to his fiefdom.
Ji Wuhou knew about this matter, and several sect leaders and elders of Xiangwu knew about it, but Yang Dian had never heard of it.
Don't ask, the answer is that Xiang and Wu have their own national conditions.
As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere in the field changed drastically. The timid Yang Dian glared at Ji Wuhou and quickly stepped forward to grab his collar: "Qin Shiwen committed a serious crime, and you are guilty of the same crime if you shield her. How can you be so foolish?"
"Hypocrite, stop pretending to be a good person!"
"Bah, Yang, this is for Xiang Wu. Do you know that Qin Shiwen has already gone insane and lost her mind? You placed her in Yuan'an City. How many of the local cultivators can escape her clutches?"
It would be fine if it was just the cultivators, but what they were afraid of was that Qin Shiwen would attack the unarmed civilians. The secret method of the Yinfeng Huangquan Sect was vicious and evil. They would sacrifice lives at any time. They had committed many evil acts of massacre in the far west. They were so unscrupulous that even the evil cultivators could not tolerate them.
"It's so funny. You're doing this for Xiang Wu, but am I not doing the same for you?"
At this point, Ji Wuhou stopped pretending to be a peacemaker and retorted, "You three have been fighting fiercely all day long, especially you and Qin Shiwen. You have been fighting for many years. It doesn't matter if one of you dies. Xiang Wu can't afford to lose a Mahayana foundation."
"Qin Shiwen has entered the devil's way!"
"Don't flatter yourself. You are the leader of Hualong Pavilion, you are noble and great. Qin Shiwen deserves to be possessed by the devil! Bah, you two are so high and mighty all the time, and you only know how to fight among yourselves behind closed doors. You don't understand the suffering of the country at all!"
On the side, three people plus a demon watched the show, ignoring a little monk, and the rest were all very satisfied.
Fight, fight!
If you are sincere, your wish will come true. The fight really broke out.
Neither Yang Dian nor Ji Wuhou could convince the other. From their own perspectives, it was all about the interests of their country and family. Since they had no idea what was going on, they rolled up their sleeves and got to work.
Because both of them were seriously injured, they could not exert their Mahayana level strength, and when they started fighting, there was no difference between them and those at the Innate Realm. They were seen hugging and falling together, with all kinds of loud noises.
"Hey, stop hitting me. You won't kill me if you hit me like this."
"Master Yang cut him down, yes, he used a claw! A great tiger claw, a great black tiger clawing move!"
“Hiss, hiss, hiss—”
After a while, the two people who were wrestling with each other stopped, their faces flushed and they were still unwilling to give in.
Although they were two grown men, they were of good fortune, each one richer than the other. Lu Bei took out the jade slip and recorded it, preparing to make another killing before leaving.
When I was young, I was ignorant and attracted too many troublemakers. In order to support my family, I could only work outside to earn more hard-earned money with tears in my eyes.
"Yang Dianfeng, are you done fighting? Let's go after that. Qin Shiwen is still waiting for us!"
"Let's go!"
Yang Dian covered his black eye and glared at Ji Wuhou with his one eye: "My dear brother, if you have nothing to do, come with me."
"Why, do you still want to kill people and silence them?"
"If I really wanted to kill you, how could you survive until now?"
Yang Dian was extremely angry, but calmed down instead: "I told you that Qin Shiwen has entered the devil's way, but you refused to listen. Come with me to Yuan'an City to see for yourself. I hope that by then, you can still keep your stubborn mouth."
"Okay, Ji, I'm willing to risk my life today, so why not accompany you?"
