Chapter 49: Enemies and Entering Chaoge

Suddenly, Su Daji smiled, as if a spring breeze had melted the frost on her face.

"Yes, I just want to get a fiefdom. What Zishou promised me was indeed Xuanyuan Tomb. You can guess so accurately, is it for the same reason as what you said to Li Jing?"

"If you say yes, then so be it!"

Yang Jian did not want to reveal the secret that he was familiar with the original plot of Conferred Gods. Even though the appearance of Su Daji had caused some changes to the Conferred Gods he was familiar with, everything still had its traces to follow.

He skillfully responded using the same method he used to deal with his girlfriend in his previous life.

In his previous life, his girlfriend would always get so angry when she heard his answer.

But Su Daji's reaction was quite different.

She suddenly reached out and stabbed at Yang Jian's forehead. Her fingertips touched the center of his eyebrows, and it was like poking a steel plate. Yang Jian did not move at all.

Su Daji's strength was not enough to push him to move.

There was a hint of surprise in Su Daji's eyes. She did not get stabbed in the eye as she had imagined.

Could it be that Yang Jian’s magical power is not a real eye like Wen Zhong’s?

She suspected that Yang Jian's eyes had the ability to read minds or predict the future, which was why he could guess so accurately.

This ability was too dangerous, so she suddenly took action to destroy Yang Jian's magical powers, even if it meant losing the possibility of becoming an immortal.

If her plan were exposed in advance, the fox clan might be doomed.

Yang Jian: "Are you looking for this?"

The next moment, a red light flashed between his eyebrows, and a crack suddenly appeared.

The red devil's eyes popped out and looked at Su Daji unscrupulously.

"This Su Daji wants to touch me, could it be that she has a crush on me?"

The devil's eye said in Yang Jian's heart.

Yang Jian: "She wants to dig you out."

The Demon Eye suddenly became so angry that he jumped up and down, and began to constantly ask Yang Jian to retaliate by digging out Su Daji's two eyeballs.

Su Daji's face was gloomy, and she was hesitating whether to use the Heart-Eating Curse to kill Yang Jian to prevent her plan from being exposed.

Yang Jian sensed a hint of murderous intent in Su Daji, which was the result of the magic eye analyzing the subtle changes in Su Daji's expression and eyes.

"Even if you use the Heart-Eating Curse, I am now able to shatter your demon core and crush your body after my heart collapses."

After breaking through the seventh level of the Eight-Nine Profound Art, the magical power of [Immaculate Golden Body] emerged, making his body even stronger.

Yang Jian could vaguely sense that as long as this magical power was upgraded again, he would be able to survive even if his heart was completely broken, and he could repair his damaged heart through the Eight-Nine Profound Art.

Only then, perhaps he would be able to truly fight against the immortals, and would not be afraid of the Heart-Eating Curse that bound him.

Su Daji smiled slightly: "How could that be? I'm still waiting for you to help me become an immortal."

She now only regretted that she had not made up her mind earlier, and instead wanted to cooperate with Yang Jian, which undoubtedly ended up as raising a tiger to harm herself, and now she felt the situation was difficult.

"Okay, in that case, I will always protect you closely from now on. No matter whether you are bathing or practicing, I will follow you."

Yang Jian said this.

What he was guarding against was that Su Daji would secretly run away and then activate the Heart-Eating Curse.

"That's what a personal guard should do!"

Su Daji spoke casually, as if she was not the one who had the murderous intention just now.

There is now a gap between the two of them, and it is difficult to bridge the gap.

Su Daji was afraid that Yang Jian would reveal her secret, so she wanted to silence him.

Yang Jian noticed her murderous intent and became wary.

As the army marched forward, along the way, Wen Zhong, the Grand Master of the Shang Dynasty, performed rituals to help with the march.

The journey would have taken several years, but the army arrived at the city of Chaoge in just one month.

Decades ago, after Emperor Yi moved the capital from Anyang to Chaoge, Chaoge became the largest city of the prehistoric human race.

Countless monks who have no hope of immortality choose to go to the human world to gain fame and fortune and pass on their offspring.

Therefore, there are a lot of cultivators in Chaoge City.

Today is an important day for Chaoge City.

Master Wen returned victorious from his expedition to the North Sea.

We will enter the city today.

I heard that he brought back 100,000 barbarian human sacrifices.

Emperor Yi was very happy.

He personally led his ministers out of the city to welcome him.

He didn't want to do that in the first place. As the emperor of the Shang Dynasty, how could he go to welcome a minister?

But he knew the backers behind Wen Zhong, and if the Shang Dynasty wanted to last long, it still needed Wen Zhong's strong support.

As an immortal, Wen Zhong could naturally protect the Shang Dynasty for ten thousand years. Emperor Yi was in his prime, and now was the twenty-fifth year of his reign, and he just had to wait until after the ceremony of offering sacrifices to the heavens.

It is the twenty-sixth year.

At the moment, Emperor Yi was sitting in the pavilion that had just been built, drowsy.

This pavilion was built specifically for Emperor Yi to welcome Master Wen.

This is enough to show how much Emperor Yi valued Wen Zhong.

There were only five people under the pavilion. The one sitting was Emperor Yi, and the other four were standing. Three of them were relatively young, and the other one looked similar to Emperor Yi, as if they were real brothers.

"Your Majesty, Grand Master Wen is almost here."

After hearing the reminder from the people around him, Emperor Yi came to his senses. The voice was that of his younger brother Bigan.

Looking up, I saw a dark mass on the distant horizon, which meant the army was marching forward.

"Oh~Are the five hundred human sacrifices ready for the upcoming ceremony?"

Bigan: "It has been prepared and has been taken to the ancestral temple. As soon as the king goes there, he can sacrifice human blood to the ancestors and tell them the good news.

I wonder if the king is going alone, or~"

Bigan glanced at the three people beside him.

These three people are Emperor Yi’s three sons, Weizi Qi, Weizhong Yan, and Zishou.

Upon seeing this, the three of them concentrated and held their breath, showing their best side, striving to be chosen by their father to meet their ancestor together.

Being able to get the opportunity to meet the ancestors is tantamount to implicitly confirming that he has a great chance of inheriting the throne. If he can gain the favor of the ancestors, he will definitely ascend the throne.

Emperor Yi raised his eyelids slightly, glanced at his three sons, and did not make a direct decision. Instead, he asked with a slightly raised corner of his lips: "It is often said that my brother has a seven-skilled mind, can communicate with all things, can see through illusions and directly reach the heart. I wonder if my brother can recommend someone."

Upon hearing this, Bigan broke out in cold sweat.

Hesitantly said: "This~"

Emperor Yi's action was tantamount to roasting him on the fire.

Letting him choose means letting him take sides.

It was obvious that he was dissatisfied with Bigan's urging him to appoint a crown prince as soon as possible.

"Why, you don't dare to choose?"

Emperor Yi's tone suddenly turned cold.

Bigan leaned forward and said, "The three princes are not mature enough. If they don't know the etiquette and disturb the ancestors, it will be bad. It is better for the king to go alone."

"My brother, you really have a clever mind. Since you dare to propose it, why don't you dare to choose? If I insist that you choose, what will you do?"

Bigan looked conflicted, he knew that no matter who he chose it would be wrong.

Emperor Yi's gaze became more and more solemn.

Bigan had no choice but to make up his mind, secretly mobilized his magic power, and instantly slapped the stone pillars of the pavilion four times.

"Bang~bang~bang~bang~bang"

The four pillars broke in an instant, and the pavilion was about to collapse, with dust flying everywhere.

Emperor Yi was shocked, thinking that Bigan wanted to kill the emperor and seize the throne. He regretted that he should not have pushed him too hard.

When Wei Ziqi and Wei Zhongyan saw the pavilion collapse, they fled instantly.

Only Zishou rushed to Emperor Yi's side, and with a sudden effort, he tangled the muscles of his limbs and propped up the collapsed pavilion.

No, it wasn't him who lifted it.

He just touched the pavilion with his hands.

The pavilion weighs tens of thousands of pounds. He only has a strong physique but no supernatural powers and his cultivation is mediocre. How could he possibly withstand it?

The one who really prevented the pavilion from falling was Bi Gan.

Bigan used his magic power to control the pavilion so it wouldn't fall down at all.

Bigan moved the pavilion away from Emperor Yi's head, leaned over and said, "Your Majesty should have already chosen someone."

“What a clever mind!” Emperor Yi glared at him.

After saying this, he looked at Zishou behind him with disgust, shook off the dust on his sleeves and said, "This pavilion is so flimsy, go and demote the officials who supervised its construction and the slaves involved to human sacrifices for the heaven."
