Chapter 129: Death of the Mountain King

~8 min read 1,479 words

Sword Casting Manor.

In the front yard, two cups of clear tea were curling.

"Brother Liu, I am here to say goodbye to you."

Not seen for many days, Zhang Junsheng's face was paler, and he arched his hands.

"Brother Junsheng is leaving? Why is this?"

Jiang Ding was surprised, and there was also some reluctance in his heart.

In the lonely life of another world, having an ordinary friend who can chat and relieve boredom, without any interest mixed in, and will not bring any trouble, is a very good thing.

"We have known each other for less than a month, and I have already regarded Brother Liu as a close friend. I wanted to be closer in the future, but..." Zhang Junsheng smiled bitterly: "The family's strength is greatly damaged, and there has been a big change, so I can't stay in the capital."

"Leaving the capital this time, returning to the countryside, I don't know if I will have the chance to see the prosperity of the capital again in this life."

He said sadly.

"Brother Junsheng, there will definitely be such a day again."

Jiang Ding opened his mouth. He had never experienced this kind of parting, and his heart was a bit complicated.

Of course, only a little, the two were actually just nodding acquaintances.

"Borrow Brother Liu's auspicious words."

Zhang Junsheng arched his hands, seeming very hurried, said goodbye to the only friend he could count as here, and left in a hurry, not willing to delay a little more time.

Jiang Ding sent him to the edge of Jin Shi Street.

"Brother Liu, if you..."

At the time of parting, Zhang Junsheng hesitated for a moment and said obscurely: "If you have relatives outside Yuezhou, you should visit them more often recently."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Jiang Ding to answer and left in a hurry.

"Oh?"

Jiang Ding pondered without speaking.

In the drone perspective, Zhang Junsheng was escorted by a strange Innate perfect expert and rushed straight to the city gate, in a hurry.

Later, he actually met an Innate warrior in his forties or fifties, with no white beard and a feminine temperament, near the city gate, and left the city directly.

In this Yue Kingdom, which family still has Innate warriors?

"... Zhang Junsheng... Chen Junsheng..."

Jiang Ding murmured, not caring: "Visit relatives? Does the Yue royal family think that the capital might have a big change? Even to the point of needing to evacuate direct descendants in advance."

Bearing this small favor, Jiang Ding flashed his footsteps and walked towards the Heavenly Machine Building.

Along the way, the capital was still prosperous, and even because of many treasures excavated from the Seven Profound Secret Cave, the market was quite prosperous, and there was no sign of any big change at all.

In front of the Heavenly Machine Building, Jiang Ding glanced at the list.

"Second, 'Dream-Eating Sword Demon' Jiang Ding, origin unknown... killed Dragon and Phoenix List 7th, 'Sea-Splitting Blade' Wei Xian."

'No Jin Dao Ancestor Weitu? Not bad.'

Jiang Ding nodded. It seems that the Heavenly Machine Building is not all-pervasive. As long as there are not many people who see things, they will not know.

Another name was discovered.

"Twentieth, 'Azure Cloud Sword' Han Lin, from the Seven Profound Sect in the East State, Internal Qi Great Accomplishment realm, killed 'East River Four Ghosts' at Dongchuan River in Chizhou, obtained the flying sword talisman treasure left by the Seven Profound Master a thousand years ago at the Seven Profound Secret Cave in Yuezhou, killed two Innate powerhouses of the Green Bull Palace, Senior 'Ten Thousand Transformations Divine Palm' Fifth Qi, Senior 'Wind Thunder Finger' Shang Xiu, and the Innate expert of the Wolf God Sect."

"In terms of combat record, Dragon and Phoenix List 1st, but relying on external force, temporarily ranked 20th."

'According to the experience, this person's character seems relatively okay.'

Jiang Ding thought, and stepped into the Heavenly Machine Building, still in the appearance of the last time he came.

Naturally, it can be, it has nothing to do with him. When a swordsman embarks on the Jianghu to pursue his dreams, he should be responsible for himself, and no one will help him all the time.

The other party doesn't need it either.

"Guest..."

A beautiful maid greeted him.

"Power."

The big change in Yuejing will naturally affect all aspects.

"Guest, please this way."

The maid was stunned and led the way.

In the quiet room next to the last time, in the curling incense, the short and fat manager arched his hands and bowed: "Which power's intelligence does the guest need? Except for the confidential information of the royal family and the Green Clothes Building, everything else is fine."

Jiang Ding naturally wouldn't believe it, and then asked him about the traces of the black-robed man and the suspected cultivators who appeared near the Seven Profound Secret Cave.

Don't overestimate the bottom line of Jianghu people.

"What major change will happen in Yuejing in the near future?"

Jiang Ding said solemnly.

The short and fat manager's face changed slightly, and he thought for a moment.

"The highest level of intelligence, do you pay with a hundred-year-old spirit medicine or treasure material?"

"Hundred-year-old spirit medicine and treasure material?"

Jiang Ding frowned. He didn't have any of these, they had all been used up.

But he still wanted the intelligence.

"Does your building accept intelligence exchange?"

After thinking about it, he asked.

"Naturally, it can." The short and fat manager smiled slightly: "This building started with intelligence, so naturally it knows the value of intelligence very well."

The implication is, don't take ordinary intelligence to show off.

"I know where Dragon and Phoenix List 2nd, 'Dream-Eating Sword Demon' Jiang Ding is, is this enough?"

Jiang Ding thought about it and said.

"Naturally enough!"

The short and fat manager's eyes lit up: "Since his debut, this person has been elusive in the Jianghu, and his whereabouts are uncertain. Many big figures are willing to pay a high price to buy his location."

"That's good."

Clang!

A sword sound, the pale blue flying sword twenty centimeters long in the sleeve turned into a stream of light and flew over the head of the short and fat manager, the hazy sword qi permeated, cold and chilling.

"Here."

Jiang Ding's tone was slightly cold.

"Seen Young Hero Jiang!"

The short and fat manager's cold sweat flowed down instantly.

Just talking about selling people's intelligence, the other party appeared in front of him, what is this feeling?

This person is not a good-tempered person. Along the Jianghu, the corpses of famous figures are paved, and blood is flowing.

"Has your Excellency verified the authenticity of the intelligence I provided?"

Jiang Ding asked.

"Naturally, it can't be truer."

The short and fat manager smiled bitterly, not daring to delay: "One day ago, the royal Innate who sat in the Chizhong Prefecture commanding the Yue Divine Cavalry, 'Mountain King' Chen Wu, was assassinated and died. Immediately after, a large number of martial arts-strong Wolf God Sect disciples made trouble, and Chizhong Prefecture was in a mess."

"Taking this opportunity, the Town East Marquis Tang Wang, who had already been promoted to Innate, led the army to break through the Iron Dragon Pass and approached the city of Chizhong. The deputy general who sat in Chizhong Prefecture, the royal collateral descendant Chen Jing, did not surrender. After a bloody battle, he broke through the city of Chizhong and slaughtered the city for a day."

"He is sharpening his sword and pointing at Yuezhou, and he will be able to reach the capital in at most fifteen days!"

"Slaughter the city?!"

Jiang Ding's face was cold, thinking of the smooth little boy and his sister, and a faint murderous intent was revealed.

"Is he not afraid of inciting the Jianghu people to attack him together?"

This kind of thing, falling below the bottom line of personality, even if the Jianghu people who don't want face will be ashamed to be with him, the forces that might have been watching and wavering will stand on the opposite side instantly.

"Don't know."

The short and fat manager's lips moved, hesitated for a while, and still accepted this intelligence free-riding.

"Not just Chizhong Prefecture, when the Town East Marquis's army broke through and attacked East State, Wu State, Yan State, and other places, if they encountered resistance, most of them would slaughter the city."

"It is said that it is to deter resistance forces, and the effect is indeed significant. Except for a very small number of royal loyalists, most places surrendered upon hearing the wind."

Jiang Ding was silent, left a thousand-tael silver note as a reward for the next sentence, and turned to leave.
