Chapter 398: Appointing Generals
Li Qing had just used the system to test Zhen Yuanzi's words, and it turned out to be all lies.
And he is a quasi-saint, and he came to Chaoge for no reason. There must be something wrong.
And he doesn't look like he's looking for trouble, so he must be asking for help.
Therefore, Li Qing said it jokingly.
But when Zhen Yuanzi heard this, his old face suddenly turned red.
Being bullied? Isn’t it! Isn’t it bullied! ?
Think about Yuanshi Tianzun, his seniority is the same as mine.
Strictly speaking, I was conceived thousands of years earlier than him.
But he relied on the fact that he was the direct disciple of Hongjun Daozu and his second senior brother to bully him like this, and even used a trace of divine consciousness wrapped in the Pangu Banner to shake his Book of the Earth to pieces!
It’s really hateful!
But these words cannot be said, especially not to this Human Emperor.
Otherwise it would be too embarrassing!
Therefore, Zhen Yuanzi chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, I appreciate your kindness. How could I let anyone bully me? However, I have been very quiet and want to move. I also remembered what Your Majesty said to me before, so I came to Chaoge. I just wonder if Your Majesty welcomes me or not?"
Li Qing's brows suddenly raised. He looked at Zhen Yuanzi with a smile on his face, then laughed heartily, "I was worrying too much. Fellow Daoist has reached the peak of the Hunyuan Great Golden Immortal cultivation. Who could possibly bully you? And the fact that you can join the Great Shang is the good fortune of the Great Shang! Come on, come on! Please come in quickly. I will treat you well!"
Zhen Yuanzi nodded and said with a smile, "Your Majesty, please."
The two of them quickly landed in the center of Chaoge City.
Da Shang has gained another great force to join.
Not to mention that Zhen Yuanzi was bullied by Yuanshi and couldn't stand the bullying, so he threw himself into the catastrophe and opposed Yuanshi.
As for Taiyi Zhenren, he lay on the ground and gasped for a long time before gradually recovering.
And what about Nezha? He had just recovered from his shock.
Even he, faced with the mighty power that just now was so great that it could make the sky collapse and the earth crack, felt as insignificant as a speck of dust!
"Master, Master, are you okay?"
Nezha secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Taiyi Zhenren and asked carefully.
Even if Nezha is a bad guy, he still owes a debt of gratitude to his master Taiyi Zhenren, so he will not be too presumptuous in front of him.
Taiyi Zhenren took a few deep breaths, and after recovering some of his spiritual energy, he said slowly, "Master, I'm fine."
After he finished speaking, he stood up tremblingly and sighed, "It's a pity that I couldn't kill Zhen Yuanzi. Now that such a serious cause and effect has been formed, you and I, master and disciple, must be careful in the future."
"Hmph! That bastard is just lucky. If I meet him again in the future, I will definitely have reached the level of Primordial Golden Immortal, and then I will make sure he dies a miserable death!"
When Nezha heard this, he sneered and said arrogantly.
Upon seeing this, Taiyi Zhenren could only shake his head and say, "I hope so."
Then he said, "Alright, hurry back to Xiqi with me. Ziya is now appointing generals and dividing the troops and announcing positions. If you go too late, you won't have a good position."
"A good position? What's the use? I don't care about it."
Nezha just curled his lips and said nonchalantly.
Taiyi Zhenren frowned, looked at Nezha, and said angrily, "What do you know?! The position assigned now will have a huge impact on your future opportunities! Stop talking nonsense and return with me!"
After hearing what Taiyi Zhenren said, Nezha's eyes flashed with anger, but after thinking about it, he let it go and decided not to bother with the old man. After all, he was quite nice to him.
So he just rolled his eyes and said, "I know."
After saying this, he and Taiyi Zhenren took off into the air at the same time and headed straight for Xiqi.
In Xiqi, Jiang Ziya was still standing on the platform for reviewing his generals, his expression calm and without any impatience.
However, there was a hint of doubt in Ji Chang's eyes.
Jifa's eyes were filled with anxiety.
What's going on with Prime Minister Jiang? It's past the auspicious hour, so why hasn't he started selecting his generals yet? What is he waiting for?
But at this moment, two lights suddenly flew over from the western sky. Taiyi Zhenren with a pale face and Nezha with an indifferent expression had arrived and landed among a group of immortals.
Jiang Ziya suddenly opened his eyes, nodded slightly, and spoke loudly: "The world is unfortunate, and great evil has been born. In the east, there is the Shang King. He is extremely licentious, has built a lot of infrastructure, framed his ministers, and harmed the people. His tyranny and cruelty are the outrage of both humans and gods! Now my lord, Ji Chang, has been appointed by heaven to lead the expedition. I am willing to put an end to violence and eliminate evil. Such a treacherous king has brought endless harm to the country, cruelly oppressed the people, and turned white into black, slaughtering loyal and virtuous people. It is right for my lord to send troops to save the people from dire straits. If the Shang Emperor can change his evil ways and follow the example of Yao and Shun, your majesty's achievements will be immortalized for thousands of years!"
When Ji Chang heard this, he shouted, "While your words are true, I am only a minister of a small country. How can I attack the monarch without authorization?"
Jiang Ziya said loudly, "Your Majesty has a kind heart and wishes to abide by the laws of propriety, but you do not know that the good and evil of the world should be spoken frankly. Right now, the people are living in misery, there are countless cruel officials, and the Shang Emperor is unjust and unbridled. If this tyrant is not removed, the world will be in ruins! Your Majesty is upholding the great principles, the will of the people, and the people's opinions. Instead of conquering, you are saving the people!"
Ji Chang was delighted to hear this and nodded, saying, "I am greatly comforted by what you have said, Prime Minister. The world is now in turmoil due to the tyranny of the emperor, and I am the one who needs to pacify it. Therefore, Prime Minister, I will mobilize the troops on your behalf and march eastward!"
Jiang Ziya immediately said, "I am willing to serve the king as a servant."
Seeing this, Ji Chang waved his hand.
Three soldiers were seen carrying three plates and walking up to the reviewing platform.
Inside these three plates, one contains a command flag, one contains a token, and one contains a yellow axe.
This is the flag of command representing the highest authority, the tiger talisman for mobilizing troops, and the hook-axe of King Dai.
Ji Chang said loudly: "Today I will hand over the power of the three armies to you, my dear minister!"
"Your Majesty! I obey your command! Thank you!"
Jiang Ziya lifted his robe, knelt on one knee, and with a loud shout, took the three items. Then, he stood up and scanned the three armies.
The three armies were in silence, and countless generals looked at Jiang Ziya with sharp eyes, waiting for his orders.
After Jiang Ziya took a look, he shouted, "When the three armies march out, the commander-in-chief goes first! On behalf of the king, I will appoint the commander-in-chief first!"
After saying that, Jiang Ziya raised his hand and intended to point at someone.
This person was Su Hu, the first one to betray the Shang Dynasty and defect to Xiqi. He was also the biological father of the evil concubine Su Daji.
Although Su Hu was a powerful lord, not as powerful as the other lords, he had commanded dozens of small lords. As the commander-in-chief of the three armies, no one could disobey him.
But before Jiang Ziya could shout out and order Su Hu to be the commander-in-chief of the three armies to attack Shang, the sky suddenly turned dark!
I saw that the sky was covered by a dark cloud of unknown size, which covered more than half of it!
"Ha ha ha ha!"
As the sky darkened, a sharp, long laugh echoed from above the dark clouds: "Not bad! I'm not too late! Appoint a general? Then, shouldn't you give me a good position?!"
