Chapter 70: The Scheming of the Holy Venerable

The master's words were like a thorn that pierced deep into Jiang Zikun's heart. After taking over as the head of Iron Blood, Liu Chen was present at his succession ceremony. At that time, Liu Chen had become the lord of the Holy Domain, and being able to come to participate in the succession ceremony of a new head really gave Jiang Zikun enough face.

Of course, Jiang Zikun also knew why Liu Chen came, and politely declined Liu Chen's kindness. Liu Chen left angrily, and since then, the two have not seen each other again.

Unexpectedly, after many years, when they met again, this became Liu Chen's bargaining chip as a rescue for the Iron and Blood Gate, which made Jiang Zikun's heart feel like he had knocked over a five-flavor bottle, sweet and sour, bitter and salty, just as much.

"Hehe, so that's it. Jiang Zikun sneered: "If the Iron Blood Sect still refuses to return to the Lingyun Sect, will the Holy Venerable let the Demon Domain fall and die without saving it?"

"Master Jiang, where are these words. Whether the Iron Blood Sect is also my Lingyun Sect, they are all part of the Holy Domain, and they all belong to the same sect, so why should you and I be so clear between our senior brothers and brothers. Liu Chen sighed and said, "Alas, the failure to completely sweep away the Demon Domain over the years has become a problem for the deity. The Sacred Domain, both in strength and in numbers, is far superior to the Demon Domain, and although there are many sects in the Sacred Domain, they are too scattered. Although the deity is revered as a holy deity, he has no right to intervene in the internal affairs of the various sects. After thinking about it, only by concentrating the power of many sects and establishing the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain, with one person in command, can the hidden dangers brought by the Demon Domain be completely eliminated. ”

"The Holy Venerable means that the many sects in the Sacred Domain have merged to form a single sect, and the old man understands it correctly. Jiang Zikun said with a pleasant face, and said secretly in his heart: Hmph, what kind of bullshit Martial Spirit Sacred Domain, I don't want all the sects to submit to your Lingyun faction and obey your command.

That's exactly what it means. The reason why the Demon Domain has endured for a long time is precisely because the Demon Domain has always been under the leadership of the Demon Venerable. Today's rivers and lakes are just like the war between Chen and Yan, although the Yan country is strong and strong, there are too many territorial vassal kings, each with his own thoughts. Looking at Da Chen again, in the face of a strong enemy, he was not afraid at all, and the front-line soldiers under the leadership of Emperor Jing were able to resist the strong soldiers of Yan State for more than ten months. In this short period of time, Emperor Jing summoned millions of elite soldiers and lions to go to the front line. In this battle, Da Chen will win. ”

"Okay, the Holy Venerable is the Holy Venerable, he has quick thinking, and he can associate the situation of the rivers and lakes with the war between the two countries. Jiang Zikun wasn't patting on the back, he really never thought of Liu Chen's words, and to his surprise, he was speechless for a while.

"No, no, it's just that I heard about the war between the two countries that I figured out the truth, so I had the idea of creating a martial spirit holy domain. If the head of the Jiang sect is willing, the first protector of the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain is none other than you. Liu Chen had already sensed the disdain on Jiang Zikun's face as he spoke, so he continued: "Of course, the creation of the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain is only an expedient measure, and after the hidden dangers of the Demon Domain are completely annihilated, you can also create a new portal on your own. ”

It's easy to say lightly, completely annihilating the hidden dangers of the Demon Domain, how easy it is to say, I'm afraid it's just your rhetoric. Jiang Zikun thought so in his heart, but he couldn't speak directly, he pondered for a moment, and said, "I don't know which sect and sect the Holy Venerable has convinced?"

"It's a shame to say that among the five sects and seven factions of the Holy Realm, except for this faction, no one knows, not long ago, the deity passed down an edict, ordering all sects and factions to come to Lingyun Pavilion to discuss the war between Chen Yan and the two countries, and they were about to take this opportunity to mention this matter. ”

"It seems that the old man is honored, the first person among the five sects and seven factions to know about this. It's just that I don't know who will be in charge of the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain in the future, and where will it be located?"

"I can accommodate people from all sects and sects in one place, and only my Lingyun faction has this strength. What's more, the terrain of Lingyun Mountain is dangerous, and it is not easy to attack the mountain. Speaking of the location of the Lingyun faction, Liu Chen was quite proud.

Lingyun Mountain is indeed dangerous, and it looks like a super-large spinning top from a distance. The top is thick and the bottom is narrow, and the top of the mountain towers into the clouds. Even when the sky is clear, you can't see the building sitting on the top of the mountain from the foot of the mountain. In the early days of the founding of the school, if you didn't have skillful light skills, you would never be able to climb Lingyun Mountain. Even now, there is only one road to the top of the mountain, and it was built along the mountain after the establishment of the Lingyun faction.

"As for the person in charge of the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain, the deity will be in charge for the time being. After defeating the Demon Domain, the next Saint Venerable can be elected according to the practice of the Holy Domain. ”

"Presumably, this matter has been brewing in the heart of the Holy Venerable for a long time. The Holy Venerable has worked hard for the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, and if he can really completely eliminate the hidden dangers of the Demon Domain, the Holy Venerable can be regarded as a great achievement. "Jiang Zikun is not Chen Yichen, he has been in the rivers and lakes for many years, and he knows that everything Liu Chen said is just a scene, but he still has to pretend to be polite to him.

"How dare the deity be greedy for merit, if you can really see the day when the demon domain is completely eradicated, you don't seek merit but no fault. I am equivalent to a chivalrous man in the rivers and lakes, and it is my duty to share the worries of the common people. Hearing Jiang Zikun's words, Liu Chen felt overjoyed and continued: "If you get the help of the Iron Blood Gate, the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain will be like a tiger with wings. Other sects will definitely follow the example of Jiang Zhangmen's righteous move, as fast as three months, slow as half a year, the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain can be integrated, and in the face of the Demon Domain's provocation, it will no longer be your faction's business. ”

"Hehe, it turns out that the Holy Venerable is so bothered, but it is for the life and death of the Iron Blood Gate, so that the old decay is ashamed. Listening to Liu Chen's words, Jiang Zikun began to feel uneasy in his heart.

"The Lingyun Sect and the Iron Blood Sect have always been in the same spirit, and they can be described as a strong alliance. As long as we work together to defeat the Demon Domain, the deity will definitely fully respect Brother Jiang to become the Holy Venerable of the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain. Liu Chen didn't care about the sarcasm between Jiang Zikun's words, knowing that fighting the Demon Domain with the power of the Iron Blood Gate alone was tantamount to self-destruction. If you want to survive, merging into the Martial Spirit Sanctuary is the only way for the Iron Blood Gate to survive.

Jiang Zikun is not very ambitious, and he has never thought about the pursuit of power. Now that he has come to such a field, he does not seek merit, but only no fault. As long as you can keep the Iron Blood Gate and still stand in the rivers and lakes, after you die, you can be regarded as worthy of the master's deathbed trust.

Regarding Liu Chen's suggestion, Jiang Zikun never took it to heart, but he listened to his narration because of his feelings, and had to accept it as a last resort, but he didn't expect Liu Chen to talk more and more energetically, which made Jiang Zikun feel as if he had agreed to him.

"The old man was moved by the heart of love of the Holy Venerable, but the old man was dumb and incompetent with the body of the wind and candle, I am afraid that he will live up to the good intentions of the Holy Venerable, and I hope that the Holy Venerable will be sympathetic to the difficulties of this door. Although Jiang Zikun has not yet refused, the meaning between his words has been clearly expressed.

"Hmph, since Master Jiang insists on acting recklessly, what can the deity do? If the deity insists on letting the Iron Blood Gate join the Martial Spirit Sacred Domain, wouldn't it be taking advantage of the danger of others and making it difficult for the strongman. A hint of displeasure flashed on Liu Chen's face, but there was any tone between his words, and he said: "In a few days, the date of the Sacred Domain Conference will be held, and the heads of the various factions will arrive at Lingyun Pavilion one after another, and the heads of Jiang may wish to stay here for a few days, and it will not be too late to make a decision after the grand meeting is over." ”

"Since it is the decree of the Holy Venerable, the old decay should obey it. ”
