Chapter 423 Phoenix Lands in a Treasure Land
As the group strolled around, Xiao Zhao, holding a string of candied hawthorns, looked at the scene on the street and couldn't help but sigh: "During the Lantern Festival before, you could still see some beggars, but in the past few months, I haven't seen a single beggar in Yushui City."
Holding a string of candied hawthorns in each hand, Qu Feiyan mumbled, "What's so strange about it? When Young Master Yu was in charge of the court, he issued several decrees that seemed to support the southwest region, but in fact they were for the sake of Yushui City, where Young Master Yu is located."
"Not to mention that Sister Yue is now in charge of the Great Ming Kingdom, so she will naturally take better care of you, young master."
"I heard that last year, whenever there was any problem in Yushui City, the central government would allocate funds immediately."
"In addition, Yushui City is home to three top-tier forces: the Sun Moon Sect, the Flower Palace, and the Divine Water Palace. It is now renowned and has become the safest place in the southwest. Furthermore, Yushui City is adjacent to the Song and Tang Dynasties, and the number of merchants in the city has more than doubled this year."
Listening to what the two were saying, Lin Shiyin looked at Chu Qinghe with a smile on her lips.
As the saying goes, "The phoenix perches on a treasure land, and even a barren place will become extraordinary if a phoenix descends upon it."
Such a statement would not be an exaggeration to apply to Chu Qinghe.
If it weren't for Chu Qinghe in Yushui City, Yushui City would never have become as prosperous as it is now.
It wasn't until Hai Shi (9-11 PM) that the group, who had been wandering around Yushui City for nearly an hour, finally returned home.
Pleasant, restless, yet worried.
After saying that, Wanwan looked at the Wudang Palm Master who remained calm, pondered for a moment, and stepped forward suspiciously, saying, "Could he have guessed that your master would do that from the beginning?"
Fan Bo, standing to the side, smiled and said, "In those years, Fan Bo Hongzhai arranged marriages in seven places in the Little Tang Kingdom to win over other forces. Although he knew little about Zhang Sanfengzhai, he could guess Zhang Sanfengzhai's influence in the Little Tang Kingdom based on what Bai Xiaosheng said in his 'Records of Jianghu Fengyun' over the years."
Upon hearing those words, the expressions of the group changed slightly.
"Alright! You've finished reading 'The Chronicles of Jianghu,' now get back to your cultivation! Strive to master the 'Ethereal Sword Technique' as soon as possible."
"On the 27th day of the first month, the Seven Little Holy Monks of Little Tang Kingdom were killed by Zhu Yuyan, the leader of the Yin Kui Sect."
Lianxing asked, "Why did the Mu Daoren Sect disband Ghost Manor? Would it be more convenient for Wudang to act without an assassin organization like Ghost Manor operating in the shadows?"
Before revealing the mastermind behind Ghost Manor to the group, the Wudang Master continued, "The fact that Fan Bohong was able to establish Ghost Manor speaks volumes about his methods and abilities."
With that thought in mind, Fan Bohong picked up the wine jug in his hand and slowly took a sip. Then, he quietly watched the fireworks blooming in the night sky with Dongfang Shibai and Yaoyue.
"It's boring. Yuan Tiangang hasn't been dead for that long, yet there's still no sign of him."
The group then picked up the longswords placed in the pavilion and retreated into the courtyard.
In contrast to the interior, the Wudang Sect's courtyard was lush and verdant year-round, thanks to the presence of the Fiery Soil mixed into the soil.
Looking out over the suburbs, there's hardly any greenery left.
Hearing what Wanwan said, Dongfang Shibai's eyes flashed again: "If it's really as he said, then your master is still wrong."
However, on the other side of the curtain, Fan Bohong, who was also enjoying the fireworks, suddenly sensed that the power of heaven and earth within Xiaoming Kingdom was slowly flowing in a certain direction.
Then he picked up the wine jug that was placed next to the pool.
At that time, Fan Bohong said casually, "If you were Master Zhang, you would have handed over the position of the Wood Daoist Sect to Cihang Jing in the same way."
Upon hearing those words, several people couldn't help but show surprise on their faces.
"On the contrary, Fan Qinghui is jealous and hateful of your master because of his talent. The Yin Kui Sect has been slandered by Fan Bo Hongzhai and the Buddhist sect in Xiao Tang Kingdom for hundreds of years, resulting in a very bad reputation. Now, if they want to control Xiao Tang Kingdom, will their reputation be affected? But if they don't have Zhang Sanfengzhai as a tool, the situation will be different."
Wudang Palm said, "Yin Qian is particularly familiar with the situation of Xiao Tang. Since he has decided to take control of Xiao Tang, the worst-case scenario is that Fan Bohongzhai is left alive or destroyed."
Upon hearing this, Lin Shiyin said, "Are you saying that the Yin Kui Sect and Zhang Sanfeng Zhai are irreconcilable enemies? Wanwan's master hasn't even reached the early stage of the Divine Seat Realm yet, and hasn't even subdued the other eight minor clans in the Little Tang Kingdom. Now, even the seven little monks you saw later have been killed. Why haven't they made a move against Zhang Sanfeng Zhai?"
Wudang Zhang Man said with a heart: "Those who plot against others will destroy their hearts. Yin Qian's reputation is well-known. After reading the records of Yin Qian's deeds in 'The Records of Jianghu,' it is not difficult to see Yin Qian's style of doing things. After personally contacting him and understanding his character, it is not difficult to deduce those things."
...
"Moreover, although Fan Bohong has not yet entered the Celestial Realm, he is still at the early stage of the Lesser Grandmaster realm. It is certain that he will enter the Celestial Realm before he is born."
If it weren't for the incident involving the small land of Shenzhou and the Xia Dynasty, Qu Feiyan would probably have lost the title of "Master Zhang" simply for condensing her martial arts golden core.
In an instant, the originally gloomy sky brightened up, and even the drifting snowflakes in the air were made murky by the light.
His gaze followed the direction of the flow of the heaven and earth's power, and as his thoughts raced, a knowing smile appeared on the lips of the Wudang master.
