Realizing This Is Wuxia World After Cultivating For 300 Years
Chapter 55
The 100 Year Period Is Coming
***
Qian Cang followed Chen Tong to the county office with a bitter expression.
He was very confused now and had no idea what he was going to face. Fang Nanzheng relied on the horse Liu Litao had given him and was always a step ahead of him!
How disgusting!
"Hmmm!"
As soon as he arrived at the county office, Qian Cang heard a cold snort.
Then, a middle-aged man with an ancient appearance and a long beard came out from the governor's reception hall.
Qian Cang looked at this person curiously, but he was met with this person's angry gaze. He immediately felt a pain in his eyes and hurriedly lowered his head.
However, this person did not care about him. He walked past and left.
"Little Grandmaster, and that's even a true Grandmaster ?!" Qian Cang was surprised. To be able to make people feel pain with just his gaze, at least this was an expert who had refined True Qi.
Stop looking and follow me, Chen Tong said indifferently.
"Oh, right, yes, Master Commander!" Qian Cang hurriedly nodded. Just now, he was shocked and subconsciously stopped in his tracks.
Right now, Liu Litao, had just put down his teacup. When he saw Chen Tong return with Qian Cang, he smiled and said, "Everyone, sit down."
Chen Tong sat down without restraint.
Qian Cang looked around in surprise, but he did not see Fang Nanzheng. He could not help feeling confused, but he still sat down nervously.
"Are you looking for Old Fang?" Liu Litao looked at Qian Cang with a faint smile.
"…hhhh!" Qian Cang stood up nervously and said in a trembling voice, "Governor, me, me..."
“No need to fear. I already know." Liu Litao laughed. "You've sided with the county magistrate, haven't you?"
“Master Governor, don't trust Fang Nanzheng's. He spouts nonsense.” Qian Cang thought that Fang Nanzheng had lied about him and hurriedly took out the excuses he had prepared. “Master, even though I joined Juhe County Judge, it was actually for..”.
"No need to say anything." Liu Litao raised his hand and interrupted Qian Cang. He smiled and said, "I've planned to join Region Master Cui before you."
"Ah? Uh?!" Qian Cang was stunned. He opened his mouth but did not know what to say. It was as if his mouth was stuck. The words he had thought of persuading Governor Liu along the way were completely useless at the moment.
How could a county governor kneel down so quickly??
“I also intend to follow the Governor and join the Regional Lord Cui.” Chen Tong nodded.
"Ah, this is ?!" Qian Cang was even more confused.
There was usually a lot of tension between Chen Tong and Liu Litao. Have they reached a consensus?
Is he dreaming?
"Fang Nanzheng has been executed by me." Liu Litao suddenly spoke and sneered, “I don't think I've always been so kind to her. This time, he really came back to hurt me. He said that Juhe County won because they were lucky enough to face a big weather change and wanted me to pick peaches. He tried to kill me!”
"He was executed ?!" Qian Cang's eyes widened in surprise. "Governor, did you already know that the Lord of Cui Territory can call wind and rain?"
"You don't think that you two are the only ones I sent to investigate, do you?" Liu Litao stood up and smiled. "Although it's hard to believe, when everyone says it, you have to believe it."
At this point, he stopped and said, “Come back and get ready. In ten days, follow me to Juhe County to welcome the new governor of Lu.” County
"Yes yes! Thank you, Governor!” Qian Cang felt relieved when he heard this. He hurriedly bowed and left.
There was only Liu Li Tao and Chen Tong in the guest hall.
“I just saw Sun Panshi go. Did he come to talk to you about the proposal of Taichong Sect again?” Chen Tong looked at Liu Litao and asked.
The Taichong Sect was the strongest sect in Lu County. It had only been established for 200 years, and its strength was slightly weaker than the Yuhua Sword Pavilion. However, they had no experts at the peak of the Inner World realm. However, they had several Xiantian Grandmasters and could not be underestimated.
The middle-aged man who had just left was called Sun Panshi. He was the Outer Affairs Deacon of the Taichong Sect, the Grandmaster of the Qi Condensation Realm.
"Yes." Yeah." Liu Litao sat down and sneered, “Sun Panshi is shameless. He actually said that he can help me get the position of Fengzhou governor. How dare a big sect from Lu County boast like that?”
"Didn't the Governor want the position of Fengzhou's governor all along?" Chen Tong said with a smile. "Why are you suddenly so scared?"
"I can't, I can't." Liu Litao shook his head and sighed. “Chen Tong, we've been working together for many years. You know me.
I just want to have the ability to protect myself in this chaotic world. I also want to earn money to live a good life. I don't want to contribute to the people under my power, but I don't want to make mistakes. I just want them to live and work in peace. I don't have much to pursue.
In the past, I wanted to be the governor of the state because I felt safer being the governor of the state. After all, I controlled the military and political power of a country, and my status could be said to be that of a King. No one can protect me better than this.
But. I received an urgent report last night that Cao Quan, the Governor of Fengzhou, was killed. That position is not easy to hold. There are too many people watching. Not as safe as being a regional governor.”
“But it's also not safe to be regional governor anymore, right?” Chen Tong looked through Liu Litao's mind. “Otherwise, you will not be in a hurry to give up your position as regional governor. You don't even investigate things like summoning the wind and rain and the Gods.”
“Hehe, did you not see it? How many times has the deacon from Taichong come looking for me?” Liu Litao laughed. “In addition to the Taichong Sect, there are also some people from other counties who want to push me, a submissive person, to the position of governor of the state.
As long as you are the governor of the county, you will be treated as someone who can compete for the position of governor of the state, especially a person like me who is at a glance easy to control. I value my life and don't want to get involved in this mess. It was better to let that Immortal become the governor of the area.
“It wasn't an accident. It's been like this since ancient times.” Liu Litao shook his head. “There was a rumor I just remembered last night. It is said that every hundred years, something shocking will happen.
Moreover, only people at the level of the County Governor and the peak of the Inner World Realm could participate in this matter. Taichong Sect, Heavenly Sword Sect, and He Family of Pingchuan.
"The earth-shattering thing?" Chen Tong thought hard upon hearing this. He said in a low voice, “S hundred years ago, the Eternal Dawn Sect suddenly announced the sealing of the mountain. Could it be related to this?
"The Eternal Dawn Sect?" Liu Litao was stunned when he heard that. He smiled and said, “You really thought of this. However, after careful thought, it is indeed not impossible.”
"Then, it's completely earth-shattering." Chen Tong seemed to be quite emotional.
She had a weak and sickly little sister when she was young. He happened to meet a disciple from the Eternal Dawn Sect who passed by and was accepted as a disciple.
After that, he would return to visit his family every ten years.
Hence, he knew more about the Eternal Dawn Sect than others. He also knew how powerful the Conferred Hengxia was a hundred years ago.
In order to be able to make such a powerful Eternal Dawn Sect suddenly seal the mountain, even someone as strong as Perfected Hengxia had disappeared.
It destroyed the earth.
Liu Litao did not know about this relationship and thought Chen Tong was just lamenting. He said, "It's better if we don't participate in such earth-shattering matters."
"That's right." Chen Tong nodded in agreement. “By approaching the end of the century, I fear only a God can be governor.”
….
After experiencing a great harvest from scaring the Zen Master Dekong, the,
Cui Heng planned to change his plan to face King Yan's forces.
Originally, he wanted to let King Yan's army come to Juhe County and use the same technique to gather a huge wave of emotions.
But now, he had changed his mind.
Compared to being instantly crushed by a storm, the emotions one felt when facing something one could not comprehend were clearly stronger.
In that case, there was no need to wait for King Yan's army to arrive. I can go straight away, Cui Heng thought.
Although Xiling County was 250 kilometers away from Juhe County, to him, who had reached the Late Completion Golden Core Realm, this distance could not even be considered a walk.
After all, he was already able to break through the sound barrier and fly when he was at Foundation Establishment realm.
However, before leaving, Cui Heng still had to meet Xu Bailu.
This beautiful Taoist nun had sent her a visitation card this morning and wanted to invite her to her residence for lunch today.
As it was almost noon, Cui Heng arrived at the residence where Xu Bailu and his students lived.
As soon as he entered, he could smell a rich scent.
It was the smell of food.
However, after entering, there was a faint feminine scent.
Xu Bailu, Fang Min, and Zhou Caiwei were already waiting in the guest hall.
As the three of them looked at Cui Heng, they hurriedly stood up and bowed.
“Greetings, Region Master.”
The three of them had different styles and all of them were bright and beautiful.
The daoist nun was beautiful with an otherworldly aura, a tall and knowledgeable beauty, and the petite and agile girl bowed to her.
If ordinary people saw this scene, they would probably be confused.
Of course, Cui Heng was no ordinary person. To a certain extent, he could no longer be considered a human.
Therefore, he sat down without changing his expression.
“Really a fancy deployment.” Cui Heng looked at the plate on the table. It was not a local dish of Juhe County, so he smiled at Xu Bailu and said, "Is this a special dish from the area around Yuhua Sword Pavilion?"
"Master made it himself!" Zhou Caiwei bluntly said directly, "Teacher made it with great difficulty, fearing you are dissatisfied."
"Dangerous girl!" Xu Bailu cursed in his heart. He glared at the little girl and hurriedly said to Cui Heng, “Tuan Kabupaten, don't mind him. Kids love to talk nonsense.”
"It's okay." Cui Heng smiled and said, “Let's eat. Otherwise, it will waste your goodwill if it gets cold.”
"Good!" Zhou Caiwei could not wait to eat.
Fang Min, who was at the side, remained silent. He knew that this lunch was not just for a simple meal.
His master had something important to say.
After dinner, Xu Bailu suddenly stood up.
She had drunk a little wine, and her pretty face was a little red. He said to Cui Heng with great respect, "Regency Master, I am ashamed to say this, but I have a request ..."
