Chapter 613 isn’t that good either【Ask for a monthly pass! 】

  Hearing the announcement on the front foot, there was a sound of footsteps on the back foot. A tall man stepped up to the hall without waiting for the king to report.

  In the next life, he will be tall and burly, with sword eyebrows and eyes, and looks like forty years old. Wearing a red robe and a pure black cloak on his back, he walked with awe-inspiring power.

  Chu Liang immediately realized that this man was a powerful person in the seventh realm, so he immediately understood the subtle atmosphere in the hall.

   Before that, several people in Qifengdian didn't have time to explain the national conditions to him.

  The uncle Gao Yueguo was the brother of the previous monarch, but he was about the same age as the current monarch. When fighting for the throne back then, the current monarch is indeed the one who is stronger and more cultivated, so he is on the throne.

  But perhaps because he was focused on taking care of state affairs, his practice was delayed. Or maybe it was the emperor's uncle who had an epiphany after his defeat, and he became the one who broke through the sky first.

  Uncle Huang became the only seventh-level strongman in the country, and the position of the monarch was very embarrassing.

  He may not have taken the initiative to propose abdication, but it is hard to say whether he is sincere or not. The emperor's uncle has achieved the seventh state, and he has focused more on his practice, so he did not accept this proposal.

  Later, the monarch became in charge of government affairs, and the emperor uncle was in charge of the Qifeng Palace. After all, they are all royal families, so the situation is stable. It's just that when facing the monarch, the emperor's uncle is disrespectful from time to time, and the monarch is not easy to get angry. There will always be some conflicts between the two sides over time.

   "Your Majesty." The emperor stepped forward, saluted slightly, and then said suddenly: "The envoy from Taotie City has arrived, and I specially brought him to see you."

   "Glutton City?" The monarch frowned and said, "Didn't the ministers in the court make a decision to cooperate with the Shushan faction this year?"

   "The envoys from the Gluttonous City came from afar after all, and their conditions are equally generous. Your Majesty will always discuss it before deciding." The emperor said again.

   "In addition to the high price of Mount Shu, we can also allow us to select a disciple from Qifeng Palace to enter the mountain gate every year as a teacher. This condition is incomparable to Taotie City." The emperor looked slightly displeased.

  Chu Liang was listening, and couldn't help blinking.

  Shushan received Qifengdian disciples.

   This move is also very clever.

  For a small country like Gao Yue Country, it is important to be able to buy spiritual stone coins for cultivation resources, but it also needs to have enough strong people. The strong people cultivated in their own environment are definitely not as good as the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect.

  In the past, the surrounding small countries might not have valued Shushan so much. But six years ago, Shushan won the first place in the Immortal Gate Conference, which had a profound impact.

   This shows that the disciples of Shushan in this generation are the strongest!

  This kind of influence is also an important reason why the disciples of the Immortal Sect are willing to fight for it.

  If the children of Gao Yueguo can go to Shushan to practice and grow up, and then return to the country, it will be completely different. Moreover, the number of one person a year is not small. The monarch can send his descendants to Shushan first, and they will definitely be stronger than the same generation of Qifengdian after they come back.

  Even if the price of Crimson Moon Grass increases, the rate will not be able to offset this part of the benefits.

  But Shushan doesn't need to spend more money on this, and this is an advantage that Taotie City absolutely does not have.

  So Gao Yueguo's civil and military officials discussed with the court and decided not to contact Taotie City directly this year, so as to leave a good impression on Shushan.

  Unexpectedly, at this moment, the emperor's uncle came to intervene again.

  Actually, the monarch could have guessed that it was probably Taotie City who knew that there was no way out, so he gave the emperor a personal benefit. Maybe they didn't give Gao Yueguo that much, but the bribes they gave to the emperor's uncle were definitely a lot.

  The emperor's uncle also frowned and said: "Naturally, you need to compare the two when doing business. How can you hang yourself on a tree? Even if your majesty meets them, will the people in Shushan know?"

   "Hmm..." The monarch looked at Chu Liang who was beside him.

   "I can pretend I don't know." Chu Liang said seriously.

   "Are you from Shushan?" Uncle Huang looked at it in a blink of an eye.

   "Heh." Chu Liang smiled and said, "I just passed by here, and it doesn't mean Hongmian Peak. I haven't been back to Mount Shu for many years, so don't worry about it."

   "I'll just say..." Uncle Huang then turned around, "It's fine if Bai Yushan and Gao Shanhu come in person, but if Shushan really sends an unknown person to talk, then it's clear that they look down on us Gao Yueguo!"

   "That's all." The emperor waved his hand, "Where is the envoy from Gluttonous City, call him up to meet him."

  …

   Even if there are waiters leading two people to the hall.

  On the left is a middle-aged man in a long gown with a jade belt, with an embroidery on his left chest, indicating his position as the second-rank enshrinement of Taotie City.

  However, in recent years, in order to compete with Hongmian Peak and Xianrenfang, Taotie City has aggressively promoted its affiliations.

  This middle-aged man has a white face and a beard, bright eyes, and he looks like a shrewd old shopkeeper.

  The one next to him was a young man with long, fluffy hair, his eyes were dark and vigilant, and he looked around in a strange state.

   "The second grade of Taotie City is dedicated to Tian Mingtai." The middle-aged man said forcefully, "I pay my respects to Lord Gao Yue."

  "Treasurer Tian doesn't need to be too polite." Although the monarch was reluctant before, he was still quite polite when they met. "I came from a long way, but I have a long way to go. Please forgive me for Gao Yueguo's negligence."

   "Hey." Shopkeeper Tian said with a smile: "The emperor's uncle has treated you warmly, so why not neglect? Today, when we meet the monarch, we mainly want to talk about the matter of Crimson Moon Grass."

   "This..." The monarch pondered: "How does Taotie City think, you can tell me."

"We know the price that Red Cotton Peak will give you." Shopkeeper Tian said, "Based on this, our Gluttonous City can raise another 10% overall, and the conditions are the same, all the Crimson Moon Grass produced can only be supplied to us. "

   "Sigh." The monarch sighed: "Both of you don't accept the sharing of Crimson Moon Grass, which really makes it very difficult for us. I am a small country in the Western Regions, which one do you dare to offend?"

"We have also heard about the fact that Shushan can receive disciples from Qifeng Palace." Shopkeeper Tian continued, "We can promise this, as long as Gao Yueguo cooperates with us. We can also receive a disciple from Qifeng Palace every year, of course not Send it to our Taotie City, but to...Penglai Shangzong."

   "Huh?" As soon as the words came out, the monarch raised his eyebrows: "Is this true?"

  Other people in the hall also showed surprise expressions when they heard this.

  Although Shushan has achieved great development through Hongmian Peak in recent years, the welfare of disciples is also top-notch. But after all, it was only one session of the Immortal Gate Conference that won the championship, and the position of the leader of the Shangzong Zhengdao in Penglai is still unshakable.

  If you can choose where to go, then Penglai Shangzong must be several times better than Shushan.

  If any one of the countries in the Western Regions can produce a disciple of Penglai Shangzong, then when he grows up, the whole country can benefit from it.

   It's just that there are too few such things.

  Before, the monarch was just perfunctory, but now he is really moved.

"Shangzong of Penglai cannot simply agree, but the price will naturally be borne by our Taotie City." Tian Mingtai said: "And I can tell you clearly, the strength of Shushan is only a flash in the pan, Hongmian Feng... will not be jumping for long."

   "Well..." The monarch immediately chuckled, "Naturally, we dare not comment on the matter between you. But we can indeed talk about the crimson moon grass."

"I haven't finished." Shopkeeper Tian said again: "When I first arrived, I heard that the princess of your country was missing, and I was quite worried. I specially transferred the third rank in my city to enshrine Han Lu. He is best at finding things and people. It can help His Majesty find the princess back."

   As he spoke, he raised his hand to draw out the young man beside him.

  The young man named Han Lu looked up at the monarch, and just nodded slightly, looking quite withdrawn.

   "But I have already handed over this matter to Chu Shaoxia..." The monarch looked at Chu Liang again, with a embarrassed expression.

   "Let this Shushan disciple leave." The emperor's uncle was very strong when he spoke.

  Hearing that Chu Liang was a disciple of Shu Mountain, the shopkeeper of Tian's eyes flashed. The news he got was that the people from Shushan would arrive tomorrow, and he might not have expected that there would be one in the main hall of Gaoyue Kingdom.

  If these news were known to Shushan in advance, and the people of Hongmian Peak had a chance to deal with it, then there might be troubles.

  Chu Liang’s heart is as bright as a mirror. There must be a reason for the monarch to allow himself, a native of Shushan, to listen here for so long. Mostly he wanted to spread the word by himself, so that when the people from Hongmian Peak arrived tomorrow, they could prepare for higher conditions.

  This is different from him taking the initiative to deliver the message.

He smiled, and before he could speak, shopkeeper Tian suddenly said: "This Shushan disciple is only at the fifth level, so what is the use? He dares to take on the task of finding the princess. If the princess suffers any damage, you will be responsible for it." Can you afford it?"

  While speaking, he suddenly launched an attack, and his body was covered with coercion, like a mountain.

  Chu Liang immediately understood the person's intentions.

  How could this old fritter get angry at will? He probably wanted to force himself to resist, and then shot himself directly. You shouldn't dare to kill him, but at least you'll be so injured that you'll faint for a day or two. In this way, before the people from Shushan arrive tomorrow, they will not be able to seize the opportunity.

   They are all thousand-year-old foxes, so naturally his scheming cannot be hidden from Chu Liang.

  But Chu Liang just smiled slightly, and asked, "What level is your cultivation level, Shopkeeper Tian?"

   "Can't you feel it?" Tian Mingtai was ruthless again, and all of them pushed towards Chu Liang with overwhelming coercion, "I am not talented. I have practiced for more than forty years before I can reach the late stage of the sixth realm."

   "I see." Chu Liang nodded.

  Boom—

  The next moment, he had already appeared at the place where Shopkeeper Tian was originally standing, and was retracting his right foot.

  Tian Mingtai himself was thrown out of the spot by Chu Liang's kick in an instant... Then he smashed through the palace wall, crossed several spacious aisles, and crashed into the palace on the other side.

  The maids and waiters on the other side screamed in panic, and there was a mess.

  Everyone in the hall looked at Chu Liang in amazement, including the emperor and uncle of Gao Yueguo. No one thought that he, who was in the fifth realm, would dare to make such a bold move against a strong man in the late sixth realm.

   And... one hit almost instantly kills.

  Isn't that reasonable?

  Under the gazes of the crowd, Chu Liang just moved back his feet lightly and skillfully, and restored his smiling face.

   "The sixth realm..." He shrugged lightly, "It's not that bad."

Good morning.
