Chapter 423: Jiang Ziya urges surrender, father and son of the Huang family recognize each other

Huang Feihu's expression sinks, a flash of anger in his eyes; he did not expect Jiang Ziya to actually urge him to surrender.

"Jiang Ziya, stop slandering the King here. You were originally a minister of Shang, received the King's great grace and were enfeoffed as a Junior Grand Master, eating the King's salary and being loyal to the King's affairs, yet for the sake of your own glory, you betrayed your master for honor." Huang Feihu's words are sharp and indignant.

"I, Huang Feihu, although a mortal, also have my own path of loyalty and righteousness, and I absolutely cannot do such a thing as betraying my master for honor. As for you, Jiang Ziya, I will definitely take your head back to report to the King."

After Jiang Ziya was resurrected, his memory of the past was very rigid, and he had no nostalgia at all. Now his mission in his heart is to complete the great cause of the Investiture of the Gods of the Chan Sect.

His expression does not change, his gaze is sincere: "King Wucheng, the change of eras is the general trend. Today, the world is alienated, and the people long for a wise ruler, and the Zhou ruler is that wise ruler."

"The loyalty and righteousness you hold on to should not be foolish loyalty. Helping the tyrant will only plunge more innocent people into misery. Surrender to Western Qi, and you can both continue the glory of King Wucheng and seek welfare for the common people of the world. Why not do it?" Jiang Ziya is earnest, trying to move Huang Feihu with words.

Huang Feihu sneers, his tone cold: "Sure enough, as Grand Master Wen said, you people of the Chan Sect are all glib-tongued, good at talking, and skilled at turning black into white. Do you really think I don't know about this rebellion?"

"You of the Chan Sect, in order to eliminate the killing tribulation on the Twelve Immortals and then carry out the Investiture of the Gods, have used the mortal world as a battlefield, which is why there is misery and constant war." Huang Feihu stares at Jiang Ziya, his words full of accusations.

"Your Chan Sect cannot shirk the responsibility for the current situation in the human world. As for Ji Chang and Ji Fa, they are just puppets supported by your Chan Sect to push for the Investiture of the Gods."

Seeing that the persuasion was fruitless, Jiang Ziya's expression becomes solemn: "In that case, King Wucheng, then don't blame us for being heartless."

Having said that, he pulls out the command flag, intending to order the army to prepare for an attack.

At this time, a voice comes from behind.

"Ziya, please wait!" Qingxu Daode Zhenjun walks over.

Jiang Ziya hurriedly turns around: "Senior Brother Qingxu, is there something the matter?"

"Let me talk to King Wucheng."

Although Jiang Ziya is confused, he still stands to the side.

But seeing Qingxu Daode Zhenjun come forward, Huang Feihu's brows furrow tightly.

"I wonder, Daoist, what advice you have?"

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun smiles with feigned profundity.

"I wonder, King Wucheng, do you remember that you have an eldest son?"

Huang Feihu's heart tightens, and the figure of his eldest son, Huang Tianhua, instantly appears in his mind.

He says in a deep voice: "I naturally remember my son, but he died when he was three years old. Daoist, what is your intention in mentioning my eldest son?"

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun maintains that feigned profound smile and shakes his head gently.

"King Wucheng, you only know one thing but not the other. Back then, your son did not die prematurely, but had a predestined relationship with me. I saw that your son had a unique bone structure and was a one-in-a-million seedling for cultivation, so I took him up the mountain, taught him carefully, and passed on his immortal methods and Dao techniques. Now he is already my proud disciple."

Hearing this, Huang Feihu's face is full of shock: "Daoist, is what you said true? My son... is he really still alive? And has he already entered your sect to cultivate?"

Qingxu Daode smiles: "Naturally, and King Wucheng, you have already met."

"We have met?" Huang Feihu is confused: "Daoist, when did I meet my son?"

Seeing Huang Feihu's reaction, Qingxu Daode is very satisfied and calls out.

"Tianhua, come quickly and pay respects to your father."

As soon as the voice falls, Huang Tianhua, dressed in silver battle armor, steps forward quickly.

With a thud, he kneels in front of Huang Feihu.

"Father, the child is unfilial. For so many years, I have not been able to accompany you and fulfill my filial piety."

Huang Feihu looks at this heroic and extraordinary young man in front of him, his heart filled with mixed feelings.

There is the surprise that his son is still alive, and also the guilt and longing for not seeing his son for many years.

But he also did not expect that the silver-robed young general who had been his enemy during this period was his own son.

He gently helps Huang Tianhua up, his voice slightly choked: "Tianhua, is it really you... For all these years, Father has always thought you... I didn't expect to see you again today."

Hearing the name Huang Tianhua for the first time, Huang Feihu wondered why this name was exactly the same as his eldest son who disappeared when he was three years old. He didn't expect it to really be his son. He sighed in his heart that it was truly the trickery of fate.

Huang Tianhua raises his head and looks at Huang Feihu.

He also just found out that Huang Feihu is his father.

Thinking that Qingxu Daode Zhenjun let them recognize each other as father and son, he must want him to persuade Huang Feihu to join Western Qi, so he speaks.

"Father, back then I was favored by Master and accepted as a disciple, and he taught me immortal methods. Now the fortune of Yin-Shang is exhausted, the world is in chaos, and the people are miserable. Western Qi's Ji Fa is a benevolent ruler, following heaven's mandate, aiming to save the people from deep water and scorching fire. Father, you should follow the general trend and surrender to Western Qi, so that we father and son can fight side by side."

Qingxu Daode Zhenjun on the side is very satisfied to see Huang Tianhua so sensible.

Seeing Huang Feihu fall into entanglement, he speaks up.

"King Wucheng, if you surrender to Western Qi, you can not only ensure the safety of yourself and your soldiers, but also reunite with your son Huang Tianhua. Tianhua is now working for Western Qi, and he misses you, his father, very much. If you father and son can fight side by side and assist the wise ruler together to achieve a great cause, wouldn't that be wonderful?"

Waves rise in Huang Feihu's heart, but his face remains calm.

He lowers his head and ponders for a moment, thinking of his son whom he hasn't seen for many years, and he cannot help but be moved in his heart.

But for him to betray Yin-Shang just like this is really not an easy task.

"Daoist, thank you for your kindness, and I am also grateful for your teaching of my son. But my Huang family has received the grace of Yin-Shang for generations, and the two words of loyalty and righteousness are heavier than Mount Tai. Now that Yin-Shang is in chaos, I can only repay it with death, maintaining the stability of Cheng Tang's country. I hope the Daoist will not persuade me again."

Then, he looks at Huang Tianhua.

"Tianhua, my Huang family has received the great grace of Cheng Tang for generations and cannot be ungrateful and return evil for good. Since you are my son, you should naturally return to my side. After a few days, I will take you back to Chaoge to visit your mother and your younger brothers and sisters, to recognize your ancestors and return to your clan. You don't need to interfere in the affairs here."

"This..." Huang Tianhua does not know how to choose for a moment.

Seeing Huang Tianhua's hesitant look, Huang Feihu says earnestly: "Tianhua, Cheng Tang has treated my Huang family well for generations. You are mixed up with the rebels of Western Qi here, which is really not a wise move. If your mother finds out, she will definitely be very sad, and how will I face my ancestors?" ===== CHAPTER 424 =====
