Jin Ding Zhenren saw that Yu Yang Zhenren wanted to become an immortal but had gone in the wrong direction, so he gave Yu Yang Zhenren a reminder.
After that, Master Yuyang disappeared without a trace. It wasn't until Yuyang Palace gained some fame in Qingyuan Prefecture that the two sides made contact again, but they kept to themselves and didn't interfere with each other.
Master Yuyang stayed in Qingyuan Prefecture to study his acquired divine nature, while Master Jinding developed his career in the capital.
"Alright, since Yang Cheng doesn't have any major problems on the surface, the task of dealing with those guys from Baisheng Mountain will be handed over to Yang Cheng."
If Yang Cheng needs your cooperation, you must cooperate fully and without the slightest hesitation!
Lu Panlong's expression was rather unpleasant.
He finally rose to the rank of Imperial Guard General, and now, with the backing of the Golden Cauldron Immortal, he is considered second only to the Emperor in the capital.
Now they're actually asking him to cooperate with Yang Cheng, a newcomer. Why should he?
At this moment, Master Jin Ding suddenly glared at them and snorted coldly, "I know you don't want me to use other people, and you don't want others to ride on your heads."
But what can I do if you yourselves are so useless?
I haven't been able to start the furnace for over a month, and even His Majesty's supply of elixirs is about to be cut off!
If it weren't for Yang Cheng retrieving the Corpse King's inner core for me, I would have continued to wait.
Tell me, what's the point of keeping a bunch of useless trash like you?
The three of them looked somewhat embarrassed.
Di Kui is good at using tricks and rules to deal with people, but when it comes to actually doing something, his ability and strength are somewhat lacking.
Lu Panlong was all show and no substance. He wasn't a particularly outstanding general when he served under General Gao Yuanlong. His only advantage was that he was easily swayed and quick to surrender.
As for Liu Pianpian, it's fine to have her kill in secret, but if you send her out to do something head-on, she might get carried away and end up in danger.
So Jin Ding Zhenren has now discovered a very embarrassing situation.
Within the capital, his power was absolute, but outside the capital, there were still many things he couldn't control.
Because he was unable to leave the main hall, and the three men under his command also had limited strength and ability.
Therefore, when Yang Cheng arrived today, Jin Ding Zhenren accepted him without much probing.
Of course, this was also because Yang Cheng's words and actions were perfectly acceptable, which is why he was able to pass the test.
And this is only the first test. Given Jin Ding Zhenren's suspicious nature, he will definitely test Yang Cheng several more times in the future.
After returning to the accommodations arranged by Han Yu, both Old Master Cui and Han Yu were waiting there.
Upon seeing Yang Cheng return, Old Taoist Cui hurriedly asked, "How did it go? Did you successfully reach the side of the Golden Cauldron Immortal?"
"The fact that I can come back now means I have succeeded. However, that Golden Cauldron Master is indeed suspicious by nature. Even though I explained and covered up all the doubts, he still did not completely believe me."
So now I'm only nominally one of Jin Ding Zhenren's men, but in reality, there's still nothing I can do.
Han Yu remained calm and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, once we take this first step, things will be much easier from here on out."
When Lu Panlong first joined Jin Ding Zhenren's side, he did not immediately take command of the Imperial Guard.
Once we gradually gain the trust of Master Jinding, we will have the opportunity to kill him.
Yang Cheng stroked his chin and squinted, saying, "It's not enough to just gain the trust of Master Jin Ding; we also need to get rid of the three people around him as soon as possible."
Today I spoke with Jin Ding Zhenren outside the hall, but I didn't even see his face. However, I could sense that there were three other people inside the hall, which should be Di Kui and his group.
If he doesn't kill them, Master Jin Ding will always feel that there are still people he can use, and his subordinates can keep each other in check, so he will never give me a chance to be alone with him.
We only know that the Golden Cauldron of the Golden Master has amazing defensive power, but we don't know how long it would take to sever his connection with the Golden Cauldron.
If Di Kui and the other two were to interfere during this process, all their previous efforts could easily be wasted.
Therefore, before making a move, we must first take care of those three!
In Yang Cheng's view, the plans that Han Yu had previously made with the descendants of Youxin were too simplistic.
If Yang Cheng hadn't intervened, even if Han Yu had managed to infiltrate Jin Ding Zhenren's inner circle, the final outcome would likely have been failure.
After telling Han Yu and Old Taoist Cui, Yang Cheng left temporarily and found an inn in the capital to stay in, which was not far from the street where they lived.
He's now within Jin Ding Zhenren's sights, so it's hard to guarantee that no one will be watching him or coming looking for him.
Sure enough, the next day, Di Kui brought his men to find Yang Cheng.
