Chapter 56 Rebellion
Lord Mo's treasonous words echoed in Lai Yang's ears.
Lai Yang looked at Lord Mo's calm and serious expression and hesitated for a moment.
The word "一肩王" sounds full of temptation.
If it were in the context of an ordinary martial arts worldview, perhaps Lai Yang would have agreed.
Because once he becomes the king of Yizibijian, no one will be able to disturb his quiet life anymore.
But this is a world of Xianxia, where the power of one person can overturn the world.
Lai Yang did not forget that there was an immortal sect behind the Great Yan Dynasty. To be honest, he was a little worried that he would be targeted.
With his current strength, he can probably deal with the Great Yan Dynasty, but if he were to face off against an immortal cultivation sect, it would be like an ant trying to shake a tree.
Although immortal cultivation sects generally do not care about worldly matters, there is always a chance of something happening.
If they succeed in their rebellion and overthrow Yan Chengtian's rule, wouldn't the sect behind the Great Yan Dynasty send people to investigate the situation?
Or maybe God knows whether Yan Chengtian has reached some kind of py deal with the people from the immortal cultivation sect. Once they succeed, it will cause dissatisfaction among the people from the immortal cultivation sect, and then the immortal cultivation sect behind the Great Yan Dynasty will intervene and lead to its destruction.
It is best to be cautious in everything. Given the nature of his system plug-in, he would rather avoid being in the spotlight as much as possible, otherwise he will easily get himself killed.
If it was the kind that involves killing people, he certainly wouldn't mind turning the world upside down, killing gods and Buddhas who stand in his way.
"Uncle Mo, you know me well. I am a quiet person and don't like to be disturbed too much. I just want to find a place to live a good life."
Lord Mo heard the refusal in Lai Yang's words, but he didn't want to give up so easily.
After all, a fifth-grade martial arts grandmaster is of great strategic significance to him.
The Great Yan Dynasty had four fifth-rank officials, but there were only two in his Beijiang City. In addition, Yan Chengtian had the power of the Great Yan's national destiny to help him.
Unless he seeks help from outside forces, it would be extremely difficult for him to capture the Great Yan Imperial City.
Even though he had made many preparations, to be honest, he still had no confidence that he could succeed.
It's just that the arrow is on the string and has to be shot.
On the contrary, there is still a glimmer of hope.
If you don't fight back, you'll be dead.
"Xiao Yang, Uncle Mo didn't force you. You should also understand the current situation of our Beijiang City. The current Great Yan Emperor is eyeing our Wuwang Mansion covetously. He not only wants the military power of our Beijiang City, but also wants to harm his fellow brothers who have been with him for many years. He also wants to put your Aunt Yun and Ruyan under house arrest. You don't consider yourself, but are you willing to consider them? I know you don't want to get involved in the dispute over power and profit, but in life, many things are beyond your control. You are either overwhelmed by the power of others, or you make others surrender."
After saying that, Lord Mo stood up and left.
Before leaving the room, Lord Mo looked back at Lai Yang again: "You still have plenty of time to consider. I'm waiting for your reply, and I hope it will satisfy me."
After seeing off Lord Mo, Lai Yang subconsciously looked at the sword at hand and sighed softly.
Where there are people, there is conflict, and human desires are endless.
The way of Heaven is to reduce the surplus and make up for the deficiency.
The way of man is to take from what is insufficient in order to provide for the surplus.
As for Lai Yang, he believes that his greatest strength is that he is self-aware and that he is calm and cautious in his dealings with others, and he does not take the initiative to do dangerous things.
Only in this way can he live longer in this cruel world of cultivating immortals.
On the same day, Lord Mo held a celebration banquet. He invited the most beautiful courtesan in Beijiang City to dance for everyone. There were also masters from all over the world gathered in Prince Wu's Mansion. Everyone toasted each other and the banquet was very lively.
All traces of the Li Dao Sect were deliberately erased by the Prince Wu's Palace, and no one cared.
Even if someone noticed it, they would not say it out loud at this time and make Lord Mo unhappy.
The martial arts masters present here have all gathered here for their own interests or the interests of the forces behind them. There is no loyalty to speak of, and there is no so-called trust between each other.
Everyone present was very clear about this.
Lord Mo sat in the main seat, and Lai Yang was arranged to sit on the left, closest to him. Mo Ruyan was on the right, as if he was deliberately expressing something.
However, no one showed any dissatisfaction or opinion about this. Instead, they gave compliments one after another at the table.
In the morning, Li Yu led a hundred men from the Li Dao Sect and headed towards the patrol army camp in a menacing manner.
Because the Li Dao Sect caused so much noise, many people knew about it and paid attention to it.
In addition, Lai Yang did not deliberately hide his identity, and the King Wu's Mansion intentionally fanned the flames. Naturally, the news that he killed Li Yu, the leader of the sixth-rank Li Dao Sect, and nearly a hundred Li Dao Sect masters with a single sword in front of the patrol army barracks spread quickly.
No one had expected that in addition to Lord Mo, there was actually such a young and terrifying top master hidden in Beijiang City.
No one would be stupid enough to offend such a person.
Not to mention them, even if the forces behind them were added together, I'm afraid they wouldn't be enough to kill them.
Below the Grandmaster, we are all ants.
In the eyes of the Grand Master, the Grand Master is nothing more than a bigger ant.
By the time the celebration banquet was over, the threshold of Lai Yang's house was almost broken down by people.
Everyone wanted to meet this extremely handsome young man, and even just being able to get to know him would be great.
He has achieved the fifth level at such a young age, and everyone believes that his future achievements will never stop at the fifth level.
As the saying goes, it’s hard to refuse a kind invitation, and you shouldn’t hit someone who smiles at you.
In order to have some peace and quiet, Lai Yang had to climb over the wall and enter Prince Wu's Mansion. He stayed there for a few days, which made Mo Ruyan laugh for a long time.
She didn't expect that Lai Yang also had things he was not good at dealing with. It was obvious that he only needed to be tougher and drive them all away.
However, she was also happy that Lai Yang was willing to hide in Prince Wu's mansion for a few days.
Gradually, as winter turned to spring, the snow in Beijiang City began to show signs of melting.
Lord Mo, with a fur coat draped over his shoulders, stood on the city wall of Beijiang City, gazing in the direction of Dayan Imperial City with a deep and indifferent gaze.
Then he turned his head to look in the direction of the military camp, and could faintly hear the shouts of the army's training, which was shocking.
The cold winter was about to pass, and he had to prepare his army and lead it south.
There were a lot of letters piled up in his study, most of which were from the noble families of the Great Yan Dynasty and the allied forces.
Under the secret planning and instigation of his people, many people who could no longer survive had risen up and started rebellions in their places.
The purpose is to distract the attention of the Great Yan court and divide their military forces.
According to the content of the letter, the Great Yan Imperial City has already dispatched troops to various parts of the dynasty to suppress the rebellion.
The two strongest northern expeditionary armies had a combined force of nearly 500,000 troops, and most of them were elite troops.
This does not include the number of troops that can be dispatched from cities along the way. It is obvious that they are preparing to annihilate Lord Mo's forces in one fell swoop.
As long as they dealt with Lord Mo, the most threatening King Tongwu, the rebellions in other places would be nothing more than minor incidents to the Great Yan Dynasty.
The current situation is urgent and defending Beijiang City will definitely not work.
Once the surrounding cities were breached and their supply sources were completely cut off, they would not be able to hold out for long.
Lord Mo felt regretful. Since that day, Lai Yang never came to him again to talk about what happened that day.
Lord Mo understood, but he still didn't want to get involved.
No egg will be left unbroken when the nest is overturned, but even if he failed, with Lai Yang's strength, it should be no problem for him to escape from Beijiang City with Mo Ruyan.
Well, let him fight with all his strength. He doesn't believe that he has no chance to reach that position.
Lord Mo's expression was indifferent and determined, and he had an awareness of putting aside life and death.
He turned around, waved his cloak, and resolutely embarked on the road to becoming emperor, which was destined to be full of blood and corpses and thorns.
