Chapter 899: Ling Mountain

This kid has decent cultivation now, fighting back and forth with water bandits, and I haven't heard how he was injured.

"Encountered Fu Shanlie."

Lu Xun also gave a thumbs up: "Just experienced a great battle, I finally witnessed the combat power of the Great Wind Army, it really lives up to its reputation."

"His subordinates are the Jade Balance Army, not the Great Wind Army." Zhong Shengquan corrected him casually, then asked He Lingchuan, "What happened?"

He Lingchuan told the story of the ambush by Fu Shanlie on the road, and reported the casualties of both sides.

Zhong Shengquan didn't comment after listening, but Lu Xun said: "Commander He is a young talent, given time, he will inevitably be able to stand alone."

"That depends on whether he has the ability to quell the banditry." Zhong Shengquan had the tone of a head of the family, turned to He Lingchuan and said, "Within seven days, the Emperor's Flowing Pulp will descend, three times in a row. I will leave the day after tomorrow, so you must do a good job in protecting Jade Balance City and nearby villages and towns, don't cause trouble at this juncture. Can you do it, do you need someone to help you?"

Three times? So many? He Lingchuan immediately responded: "No need, this is a small injury."

He is the Commander of Jade Balance City and has an unshirkable responsibility for the city's public security and riot prevention.

The descent of the Emperor's Flowing Pulp is a great temptation for all living beings, and riots are prone to occur where people gather. Since Jade Balance City has received the warning, it must take precautions and strive to minimize losses and disputes.

And He Lingchuan knew clearly that the dense descent of these few Emperor's Flowing Pulps might be the start of the Punishment Dragon Pillars spread by Shao Jian, leading to the Heavenly Gods killing each other.

Gods fall, humans get blessings.

Lu Xun was very fortunate: "Thanks to me not being at sea, otherwise the Emperor's Flowing Pulp would arrive, and all kinds of deep-sea behemoths would be lured to the water surface."

After these few spiritual rains, I don't know how many ships will be destroyed in the ocean.

But he was also very curious: "The prediction of the Emperor's Flowing Pulp has always been accurate; only Beijia has been able to do it for these hundreds of years."

Zhong Shengquan heard the implication of his words: "In the final analysis, only gods can calculate. Beijia has the Spirit Void Gods, and here, it is the God Lady Mitian."

Lady Mitian knows when the gods will fall, and with a little calculation, she knows when the Emperor's Flowing Pulp will descend to the human world.

The Spirit Void Gods are the same.

Lu Xun really didn't show a surprised expression, just asked: "When did Brother Zhong start worshiping gods?"

This topic is always a bit heavy; Zhong Shengquan had no expression: "Almost six years."

He guarded Panlongcheng alone for twelve years, and really couldn't continue, so he asked Lady Mitian for help.

This year is already the end of the 17th year of the Panlongcheng calendar, and more than five years have passed since Lady Mitian's first divine descent.

He Lingchuan heard this and suddenly realized that the destruction of Panlongcheng was less than fifteen years away.

Lu Xun asked again: "Has Lady Mitian never deceived or coaxed Panlongcheng?"

"So far, no."

"Use?" Lu Xun said again, "Divine descent always has a purpose, right? No god is happy to help others."

He Lingchuan's eyes narrowed.

Lu Xun also has an understanding of Heavenly Gods? The impression of Heavenly Gods in the world is that they are high above, listening to all living beings.

"She hates the Spirit Void Gods and also hopes to establish her own power in the human world." Zhong Shengquan replied, "I think on this point, I have a basis for cooperation with Lady Mitian."

"Which point?"

"Gods intervening in the human world, stirring up so much trouble? It also cuts off the path to heaven for our generation." Zhong Shengquan said decisively, "I want to cut off this black hand!"

He Lingchuan heard for the first time that the highest controller of Panlongcheng expressed his ambition so directly.

Zhong Shengquan really has this ambition, worthy of being the successor of the Yuan King's relics.

But why would Zhong Shengquan, with his city government, mention such a secret ambition to Lu Xun, whom he met for the first time?

Lu Xun looked solemn and nodded slowly.

Zhong Shengquan said again: "Mr. Lu, regarding my proposal, how did 'Ling Mountain' react?"

He Lingchuan's heart jumped.

Ling Mountain?

He actually heard these two words from Zhong Shengquan's mouth.

In reality, he had already dealt with Ling Mountain. Whether it was Fang Canran who stirred up Spirit Void City, or the Rongshan Sect that helped him visit the Yuan Nation and sent him people, they were all people from Ling Mountain.

Through the vague explanation of Sect Master Xue of Rongshan, He Lingchuan knew that "Ling Mountain" was not just a sect, but an organization that connected many like-minded practitioners, and there were even immortals among them.

Judging from the attitudes of Spirit Void City and the Heavenly Palace, they were also quite wary of Ling Mountain.

But Panlongcheng stood alone in a corner, and actually had contact with Ling Mountain? What suggestion did Zhong Shengquan make to Ling Mountain? What surprised He Lingchuan most was, what is the relationship between the Lu family and Ling Mountain? Hearing what they meant, Lu Xun ran this trip thousands of miles to find Zhong Shengquan on behalf of Ling Mountain.

This is thought-provoking.

He Lingchuan never expected that the ancestor of the original body over a hundred years ago was also a member of Ling Mountain?

But thinking back, Bailie was originally an Immortal Sect, later became a nation, and was driven away by Beijia; it must have hatred with Beijia; Bailie people moved east of the Mu Nation, and the Mu Nation is full of sects, which is probably also the vanguard against Beijia.

Synthesizing it, it seems reasonable that the leaders of the Bailie people are related to Ling Mountain.

Lu Xun exhaled lightly: "Brother Zhong's resistance will is firm, and Panlongcheng has resisted the enemy for more than ten years, which can be called consistent in words and deeds, not forgetting the original intention, I admire it very much."

"Ling Mountain has observed Panlongcheng for many years and has seen all of this, but there is one doubt—"

He said this, paused, and Zhong Shengquan already understood: "Lady Mitian?"

"Right. Heavenly Demons are the enemies of Ling Mountain, while Panlongcheng is closely linked to Lady Mitian, and these few Emperor's Flowing Pulp warnings are examples." Lu Xun added, "Heavenly Demons are neither credible nor reliable; this is a lesson learned with blood by ancient immortals and the current Ling Mountain."

"Therefore, if Panlongcheng cannot cut off the connection with Lady Mitian, if it cannot draw a clear line with it from now on, Ling Mountain is afraid it cannot accept Brother Zhong and Panlongcheng."

Lu Xun's implication was not said, because it was unpleasant:

Worshiping gods is a taboo. Beijia worships gods, and Panlongcheng worships gods, both bowing to gods and borrowing the power of gods, so what is the essential difference between you two? Original intention? Original intention can be changed.

Human heart? Human heart can change.

Ling Mountain doesn't want to and can't take this risk to accept a force that worships gods.

Zhong Shengquan was silent for a while before saying: "Given Panlongcheng's current situation, if it doesn't form an alliance with Lady Mitian, it is still full of crises."

He Lingchuan knew his deeper consideration, which was that the Great Fang Hu was closely related to Panlongcheng and Lady Mitian, and this connection could not be cut off just by saying so.

"Where do the crises come from?"

This time Zhong Shengquan finally spoke bluntly: "Beijia."

He had a clear understanding of the root cause of Panlongcheng's disaster.
