What kind of monster are you on the mere background board

The person in charge of the teleportation array recalled: "That should have happened several days ago. Elder Ji came in a hurry and said that I should start the teleportation array, but you also know that we did not have spirit stones to start the teleportation array. We don't know how to use it either, it was Elder Ji himself who stuffed the spirit stone and activated the formation."

"Did he say anything before he left?"

"Elder Ji left in a hurry. He said he would go back when he went. If the Lord comes, he will tell you that he is going to be promoted."

"Promotion? Can't he be promoted here? He has to go out? Did he say where he went?"

"This... we don't know about this." The person guarding the formation cowardly shook his head and said.

Ji Qingning should have been stimulated by what Yuan Yuesheng said.

He is also a genius, and a genius will have arrogance. How could he tolerate himself being inferior, let alone the wrong Yuan Yuesheng.

He got stuck a lot in Huashen Ninth Layer, so he probably wanted to take a risk to get promoted.

But what can't be said about this, if it is because of the self-esteem that died under the catastrophe, it would be a shame.

Zhuang Qiu was anxious, but he couldn't find Ji Qingning now, so naturally he couldn't wake him up.

Turning his head, Zhuang Qiu went to discuss with Xiao Yi again.

After all, Xiao Yi has lived so long longer than him, so he should have more ways to deal with problems than him.

When Zhuang Qiu told Xiao Yi about Ji Qingning, Xiao Yi immediately laughed.

These days because of the matter of Shenyin, he has been depressed in his heart. Hearing Zhuang Qiu's words now, he smiled from the bottom of his heart. He teased: "This kid, I usually don't see such a strong temper. I said how did you become so angry?" It’s a skeleton, but it can still be a confidante.”

Zhuang Qiu wanted to roll his eyes when he heard his words - but he had no eyes and couldn't.

"Stop joking, think about what to do."

"If you are impatient, you will be confused. Ji Qingning is not a rash person. He must be promoted only when he has confidence in his heart. If he doesn't come back now, it will be a delay. Maybe he will come back in a few days."

Zhuang Qiu suppressed his worries, what Xiao Yi said was not unreasonable, Ji Qingning was not an impulsive person, maybe he was sure of it.

"In case, in case he is really overwhelmed by jealousy and wants to forcibly advance to the integration period, then I guess, he should return to his dynasty."

"You mean, Ji Dynasty?"

"If he wants to be promoted to Fusion, he has to cut off the karma of mortals in the past. When you were promoted, didn't you cut off?"

Zhuang Qiu felt embarrassed and touched the skull's head, saying: "I have no cause and effect, so I was promoted casually."

Xiao Yi almost vomited blood out of breath.

When he was promoted, the Taixuan Sword Sect was all dead, and only he and Shenyin were left, so he could be promoted relatively smoothly, but just like this, his past karma also cost him a lot of time.

Fortunately for Zhuang Qiu, he died once, and there was no karma for him, so he was promoted simply.

Xiao Yi gritted his teeth angrily and said, "Anyway, you can go to Ji Wangwang and look for him, you should be able to find him."

"Then please ask Master Uncle to watch Fengmo City for me, I will try to go back as early as possible."

Xiao Yi rolled his eyes at him and said: "It's nothing Xiao Yi, there's something about uncle, who did you learn from, you're so duplicitous."

"As Qinghong said, those who know the current affairs are the best." Anyway, Qinghong is not there, so Zhuang Qiu naturally let Qinghong carry the blame.

Xiao Yi was thinking, one day he would catch Qinghong and give her a good beating, teaching the younger generation something.

Zhuang Qiu took out the few remaining spirit stones from his pocket and put them on the teleportation array.

In the previous battle with Renxiu, he mined all that could be mined in the mine vein of the Demon Lord, and now he doesn't have many spirit stones in his hand.

He sighed in his heart, he was still worried about these two spirit stones after becoming a Demon Lord, he might as well not be a Demon Lord.

The light from the teleportation array was stimulated, and Zhuang Qiu felt a pain in his heart—although he didn't have much flesh, the pain was very real.

Taixuan Sword Sect.

Jicheng is a mortal city in the south of Huzhou. Because the Taixuan Sword Sect does not restrict the development of small sects, nor does it support the royal family and nobles, most mortals reproduce in the form of a city.

The southern part of Huzhou is not completely peaceful, it is about three thousand miles away from the Qingyuan Mountains. For Zhuang Qiu, it takes less than a day to get there in a spirit boat, but for ordinary people, to cross this distance, they have to walk A full month.

If they want to pass through small sects, they have to give some money to these small sects. If they have no money to offer sacrifices to the sects, they have to go from those unoccupied hills.

And on those hills, there may be ferocious beasts entrenched, or there may be bandits rampant, if one is not careful, he will die there.

The pedestrian who sent Ji Qingning to the Qingyuan Mountains at the beginning, when they arrived at the Qingyuan Mountains, Ji Qingning was the only one left, and the others died or fell ill without surviving that month.

Ji Qingning had the strength to cross this dangerous land and return to his homeland after he had completed his studies.

But the family has changed a long time ago. His mother has passed away, and his father is also getting old.

For a cultivator, a mortal's life is too short, just a moment.

If Ji Qingning wants to be promoted, he must completely cut off his connection with Ji Cheng.

Of course, if he could see the line of cause and effect, he could just cut it off with his sword. His immediate family members are no longer there, and the line of cause and effect is already very weak, so he should be able to cut it off.

But Zhuang Qiu didn't know why Ji Qingning didn't kill him, but returned to his native land.

Jicheng's terrain is very high, easy to defend and difficult to attack, so the change of kingship is relatively smooth.

But with the obstinacy of the descendants of the Ji family, the kingship is already in jeopardy, and now a child who is only 12 years old is in the kingdom. How can he keep his power at this age.

Zhuang Qiu just stood outside Jicheng and casually listened to the words of the ministers inside, so he could roughly understand the situation.

His divine sense swept across, and there was nothing to hide from the conspiracies and schemes of these mortals.

Vision determines the difference between them. Zhuang Qiu's eyes are on the war between monsters and monsters, but what the mortal city is shrunk to a corner is thinking about how to become the most powerful person in the city.

With just a sweep of his consciousness, Zhuang Qiu also found Ji Qingning's trace.

This is not only like Ji Qingning, but also not like Ji Qingning.

This Ji Qingning didn't have any fluctuations in spiritual power, and his legs were disabled, and his breath was weak, like a candle that was about to burn out.

What the hell is this guy doing.

Zhuang Qiu scanned the surrounding people with his spiritual sense, and then confirmed Ji Qingning's identity.

He is not Ji Qingning, but the former prince and grand teacher, and now the national teacher.

Although he is a national teacher, his body is too weak. His personal attendants are fine, but the ministers of the court and the central government don't pay him much attention.

And this national teacher, wholeheartedly assisting the little emperor, wants to make the little emperor a real ruler.

The territory under the jurisdiction of Jicheng is much wider than that of Zhuang Qiu's Ya'an.

It spans hundreds of miles from south to north, and unlike Ya'an, which is located in a fertile land, it is a thorn in the side of the surrounding cities.

Jicheng's foreign troubles are not as good as Ya'an, but at the same time, their imperial power is not as stable as Ya'an.

You know, the imperial power in Ya'an was handed down by generations of emperors.

Zhuang Qiu was only ten years old at that time, and he had already learned the art of war and had been in the barracks.

In Ji City, the national teacher who had the same breath as Ji Qingning was reviewing the memorial under the candlelight. He coughed twice from time to time, as if his life had come to an end.

Zhuang Qiu probably guessed it, this should be a way for Ji Qingning to cut off cause and effect.

He is using this method to repay his mother's upbringing.

Moreover, this kindness far surpassed Yan Mo's kindness, and Ji Qingning couldn't let go of it.

Looking back, when Ji Qingning was unconscious, it was his mother and concubine who called out.

Thinking about it, he should have a deep attachment to the woman who died of illness, and now there is no way to repay this kindness, so he chose such a way.

Some cultivators will use this method to eliminate cause and effect. It has a common name called "mortal world refining heart".

Ji Qingning has only lived for a hundred years. Although he is very talented, he does not have a special physique like Yuan Yuesheng. If he wants to break through the threshold of the fusion period, it is probably impossible to use ordinary methods.

Zhuang Qiu didn't bother Ji Qingning hastily. If it was his arrangement, he went to search for it by himself and interfered with him, which might make him fall short or even go mad.

So instead of looking for Ji Qingning, he watched silently.

On the first day, he saw Ji Qingning being humiliated by several ministers, but Ji Qingning didn't say a word.

The next day, he saw several maidservants who served him secretly laughing at his legs.

On the third day, he saw that the little emperor not only disobeyed Ji Qingning, but also advised him not to waste his efforts.

Zhuang Qiu clenched his fists and tried his best to dispel the thought of teaching these mortals a lesson.

On the fourth day, he saw the little emperor's second uncle molesting Ji Qingning and making Ji Qingning his concubine.

*, he couldn't stand it.

Go fuck the world of mortals and refine your heart.

When Zhuang Qiu watched that Prince Su put his hand on Ji Qingning's lap, he almost killed him out of breath.

When he touched it at that time, he was still cautious, and he didn't dare to make a move.

This ignorant Prince Su, who came out of nowhere, dared to touch his things.

* His uncle's.

Zhuang Qiu couldn't bear it anymore, he let that Prince Su slipped and broke half of his leg.

He left the place where he sat cross-legged, and his consciousness swept across the city.

In the end his target fell on a dying general.

Although there are not many foreign troubles in Jicheng, it is not without foreign troubles. Chucheng, which borders him, occasionally invades. When this general was fighting against the opponent, he was shot in the chest by an arrow. There are also deep hidden dangers.

Coupled with the wind and cold these days, he is already dying.

As soon as Zhuang Qiu moved his mind, he appeared in front of the general.

The originally heroic general was lying on the bed extremely weak at this moment. He was unconscious, but when he felt the door being pushed open, he still instinctively said: "Who is it?"

Zhuang Qiu's hands surged with spiritual power, covering the general's chest.

The spiritual power entered the body and found the damaged organ. Zhuang Qiu probably understood his injury, and then forcibly reduced his fever and regained consciousness.

Although the fever subsided, the general still seemed weak. He opened his eyes and looked at the intruder.

"Who the hell are you and why did you save me?"

"I'm an immortal from the Taixuan Sword Sect." Zhuang Qiu transformed himself into Xiao Yi's appearance.

His skeleton is too scary, if it appears directly in front of this person, he is afraid that it will scare him to death.

Xiao Yi's appearance looked more stable, and he also had the demeanor of a fairy.

"Immortal?" The general coughed a few times.

That's right, probably only immortals have the ability to pull him back from life and death.

"I have a destiny with your little emperor, but immortals are not allowed to meddle in human affairs at will, so I plan to use your identity to assist that little emperor and help him achieve great things."

"I'm coughing... If the immortal can really help His Majesty the emperor not be threatened by the thieves, then Jiang Xu's life, my lord can just take it."

Zhuang Qiu smiled and said: "What's the use of me wanting your life? Besides, you also understand that I have no need to lie to you. Obviously, if I want to, I can directly replace you. Now I want to discuss with you. It's just that I don't want to be free. Hurt mortals, and after I leave, you have to make sure that you can assist the emperor and not have second thoughts."

"Immortal, don't worry, my Jiang family has been loyal for generations."

"Okay, then I will place you in the cave I opened up first. There is enough food there, and you can recuperate there. Your wounds are in your heart. If your wounds are still not healed when I leave, I can Give you a pill to help you regain your life."

When Jiang Xu heard this, he quickly thanked him: "Thank you Immortal, I am grateful for the great kindness of Immortal."

Zhuang Qiu said indifferently: "You don't need to thank me, if you want to thank, you can thank the royal family surnamed Ji."

"The young general must only follow His Majesty's lead, and have no second thoughts."

Zhuang Qiu nodded, waved his hand, and sent him out.

He opened up a cave not far away, and set up a concealment formation around it. There should be no unsightly people bumping into it, so let him heal his wounds there with peace of mind.

As for his words of allegiance, Zhuang Qiu didn't take it seriously. After all, mortals are very short-sighted in many things because of their limited lifespan, and only see immediate benefits. Of course there are many determined people, but such people are rare.

To Zhuang Qiu, what a mortal thinks is not important.

He just didn't want to increase the number of murders in vain.

Zhuang Qiu's spiritual power flashed, and he immediately turned into Jiang Xu's appearance.

Of course, it was sickly.

He didn't forget that Jiang Xu was still seriously ill, and if he healed up hastily, it would also arouse people's suspicion.

We have to take it step by step.

When Jiang Xu's subordinates came to see him, they were surprised to find that Jiang Xu, who was dying, was able to walk around on the ground.

"General, you've made it through." His subordinates were very happy. He and Jiang Xu had been fighting for so many years, so of course they were like brothers.

Zhuang Qiu recalled Jiang Xu's memory, and then matched the person in his memory with the young general in front of him.

——Although peeking at the memories of mortals is not good, but Zhuang Qiu can only do this in order not to be disturbed by Ji Qingning's mortal cultivation.

"Thanks to the medicine prescribed by the doctor, I feel that not only the cold has healed, but my old injury is also showing signs of getting better." Let me remind you first, otherwise they will probably be shocked when the injury recovers later.

"God, open your eyes." Long Xing said happily, he supported Zhuang Qiu to move his muscles and bones on the ground, and said: "It would be great if the general can recover, you don't know, after Prince Su knew you were sick, he gave you another A new deputy general has been sent to the battalion, and I think what he means is that he wants the new deputy general to take your place little by little."

Zhuang Qiu said in a deep voice: "Now that I have recovered from the cold, I will definitely not give them this chance."

"I believe in the general. After a few days, the general's wind and cold are all gone, and the general will come back."

"Well, I'll watch the day go back."

There are three barracks in Jicheng, one is the imperial guards directly under the emperor, and the other is the Jicheng army responsible for patrolling and supervising Jicheng's affairs, but the Jicheng army is now in the hands of Prince Su, and it is his private army. army.

The third is Jiang Xu's Po Cavalry Army. The Po Cavalry Army mainly fights abroad and is responsible for foreign aggression. It is also occasionally seconded to the Jicheng Army for patrolling.

Right now, among the three armies, the Jicheng Army has the largest number, followed by the Emperor's Guards, and then the Pocavalry Army.

But in terms of marching and fighting, other armies are not as good as the broken cavalry.

Once Jiang Xu died, the broken cavalry army would inevitably fall into the hands of Prince Su.

After a general understanding of the situation, Zhuang Qiu chose Jiang Xu as his starting point.

It can help Ji Qingning without disrupting the situation.

……

in the palace.

The national teacher opened and looked at the spies' letters one by one, and one of them made him show some joy.

Jiang Xu recovered.

This is good news.In this way, the Pocavalry Army will not be robbed by Prince Su, and the little emperor will have more time.

National teacher Ji Qingning threw the information one by one into the charcoal basin, and roasted his hands on the fire.

Winter was particularly difficult for him, his body was weak and his hands and feet were cold, but in winter, his hands and feet were even numb.

"National teacher! National teacher!" The little emperor ran into Ji Qingning's yard.

Ji Qingning looked at the energetic little emperor, smiled lightly and said, "Have you finished going to court?"

"Yeah, it's just that going to court is so boring. Listening to those ministers arguing every day makes my head hurt like hell."

"And I feel that they didn't take my words seriously, and finally let the second uncle make the decision."

The national teacher rubbed the little emperor's hair, and said softly: "Your Majesty is the son of destiny, but because of his young age, Prince Su took the lead, but it doesn't matter, the old minister will help the emperor."

The little emperor hugged Ji Qingning's waist, and said affectionately: "The national teacher is the best, I really hate the second uncle."

"Your Majesty, you can only tell me these words, do you know?"

"I know, I know, I'm not a three-year-old child anymore, the national teacher has taught me eight hundred times what to say outside."

"Jiang Xu has recovered." Ji Qingning pushed the emperor who was hugging his waist away, and got down to business.

"Didn't General Jiang get the news that he was seriously ill a few days ago? Why is he recovering again?"

"Maybe it's God's will in the dark, but it's good for us. You have to care about him and win over him. Of course, don't go too far. You are the Son of Heaven after all, and you are the most honorable."

"Understood." The little emperor nodded and said obediently.

……

It took several days for Zhuang Qiu to go to court.

The news of his recovery had already spread throughout the entire imperial city when Long Xing walked out of his house.

Every family has placed spies in Jiang Xu's mansion, and some of them even knew about it earlier than Long Xing.

"Jiang Aiqing looks very good."

"The minister has recovered from his illness, thank you for your majesty's concern." Zhuang Qiu responded and looked at the court hall.

Standing opposite Prince Su was Ji Qingning in a wheelchair.

Ji Qingning, who has become a mortal, is more beautiful and delicious, without great strength, and so sick, it only makes Zhuang Qiu feel that what he wants to do, the other party can't resist.

I really can't help but feel like a beast.

Of course, Zhuang Qiu was not the type to take advantage of the opportunity, he just sized him up and then looked away.

"Very good, very good, Jiang Aiqing has been working hard recently, and I will reward three pieces of brocade and satin, and a hundred taels of gold."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Stop kneeling, your injury is just right."

Zhuang Qiu didn't intend to kneel, he knew that the emperor wanted to win him over, and he must give him a hand.

So Zhuang Qiu put on a show.

After hearing the emperor's voice, Zhuang Qiu's eyes showed more sincere thanks, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Jiang Xu is a martial artist, so it's normal for him to talk less, so the emperor didn't take it to heart.

After Zhuang Qiu entered the list, Prince Su became a little unhappy.

I don't know what kind of bad luck I had recently, not only broke my leg, but I had to face up with a splint, but the duck that Pocavalry got in my hand also flew away.

Prince Su was not happy about this matter, so naturally he had to make trouble for the emperor.

So Zhuang Qiu watched Prince Su deliberately ask the little emperor for his opinion when the courtiers were arguing, and when he finished speaking, he said that there was something wrong with the emperor's opinion.

After suppressing the little emperor, Prince Su felt at ease.

Not to mention how ugly the little emperor's face was, but he was inferior to others, so he had to listen to his second uncle dictating.

As for the national teacher, he was silent on the sidelines.

He has already benefited from Jiang Xu, and it is normal for Prince Su to vent his anger. If he rushes to scold him at this meeting, maybe the other party will do something irrational in anger.

After all, most of the courtiers are now Prince Su. Although the little emperor has his own influence, he is still a bit weaker than Prince Su.

As a general, Zhuang Qiu naturally has little say in the court, and usually just paddling water.

If he really wanted to speak, it was probably Chu State calling.

The national teacher did not come to court every time, because it was winter, and his health was particularly bad. The little emperor also granted the national teacher to go to court when he was in good health.

And the reason why he went to court today was because Ji Qingning was worried about the little emperor and planned to win over Jiang Xu himself.

After the court, Zhuang Qiu deliberately walked very slowly.

Obviously, as a combined period who can know what's going on in the whole country without spies, Zhuang Qiu playing tricks with this group of people is bullying the children.

Their information is not equal at all, Zhuang Qiu can easily guess what they are going to do.

He was just waiting for Ji Qingning to come and win him over.

In this way, he can make Ji Qingning feel more comfortable.

For example, if the little emperor turned upside down again, he would just kick him over - this is probably not feasible, if he really kicked him, Ji Qingning would probably scold him bloody.

I don't know what setting Ji Qingning gave himself, anyway, he is really single-minded, assisting the little emperor without any hesitation, and making suggestions for the little emperor.
