Sangming County, Zhao family.
"Haha, Shiguang offers a toast to all the immortal masters."
In the Zhao family's living room, Zhao Shiguang was entertaining many elders of the Lihuo Sect.
The table was filled with delicious food, creating a luxurious scene.
Zhao Shiguang's face flushed, he picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, feeling very proud.
The others also raised their glasses and drank with a smile.
"Haha, Patriarch Zhao, we'd like to congratulate you first. Kill Chen Yu, and we'll put pressure on Emperor Qin, and you'll be the King of Mozhou!"
"The Lihuo Sect will also recognize you as an Immortal Envoy. The future of your Zhao family is limitless."
An elder of the Lihuo Sect spoke with a smile.
Zhao Shiguang couldn't stop laughing.
"Thank you all for your kindness, elders. Shiguang will definitely live up to your trust and make sure Chen Yu dies in Mozhou!"
Patting his chest, Zhao Shiguang's heart trembled with excitement.
Be crowned king!
This is such a temptation that is hard to refuse.
Although the Zhao family is considered to be very powerful in Mozhou, it is only an aristocratic family after all.
There are still limitations on many things.
But once you become king, it will be completely different.
Prestige, power, wealth...
Everything will be completely different from the past.
By then, people will call him Zhao Shiguang not the head of the Zhao family, but King Zhao!
Among the thirteen states under the jurisdiction of the Great Qin, the heads of several states that are farther away have already been crowned kings with the support of the immortal sects.
Zhao Shiguang dreamed of trying out that kind of majesty.
And now, there is finally a chance!
By becoming the king of a place, one can get the full support of the immortal sect and become an immortal envoy.
At that time, the immortal sect’s elixirs, skills, and various resources will be tilted towards us.
Such benefits are hard to imagine.
It can be said that this time, it is an opportunity for his Zhao family to rise to the top in one step!
During the banquet, everyone in the Zhao family had a rosy face, imagining the scene of the day when the Zhao family would be crowned king.
"Come, come, come, Shiguang will toast to all the immortal masters again."
Zhao Shiguang picked up another glass of wine and drank it down his throat.
After one cup, Luo Chang from the Lihuo Sect's Elder Council spoke lightly.
"Master Zhao, don't get too excited. This Chen Yu is not easy to deal with."
"According to reports, he has killed all 30,000 of the intercepting troops. He has also wiped out the forces in Tianzhi and Shangfeng counties."
"Even Master Mo Jue of the Hundred Poison Sect died at his hands. You better not be careless."
The news came back shortly before the banquet, and they were somewhat shocked by what Chen Yu had done.
"Haha, Elder Luo, please rest assured. This Mozhou is the Mozhou of my Zhao family. He Chen Yu is nothing."
"In Sangming County, we have Elder Luo and the other immortal masters, as well as the Mysterious Fire Formation. What kind of trouble can he possibly cause?"
"Besides, there are still many disaster victims along the way, as well as so many powerful and influential families. Those people can drag him to death!"
"It's hard to say whether he can make it to Kuwana County."
Zhao Shiguang spoke with a smile, not caring at all.
There are so many counties, towns and villages under Mozhou, and tens of millions of victims.
Seeing Chen Yu coming, would these disaster victims let him go? Would those aristocratic families and powerful people be so polite and cooperate with him?
There is simply not enough food, water, medicine and other supplies for disaster relief.
By then, Chen Yu would be so busy with disaster relief that he would be exhausted.
If things go wrong, the victims will riot and vent their anger on Chen Yu, and Chen Yu might even die on the way.
"Haha, Patriarch Zhao is really calculating. These disaster victims have become knives in your hands."
Luo Chang spoke with a smile.
"Haha, these disaster victims can be considered as waste utilization. Chen Yu is still too young to fight me."
"Come, come, today is a happy day. Don't let those low-class people disturb our fun."
"After we finish eating, Shiguang has arranged a song and dance performance for you. Please enjoy it, Immortal Masters."
"Let's all pray together that Chen Yu can safely climb to Kuwana County. Hahahaha."
Zhao Shiguang had a happy smile on his face and asked everyone to continue eating and drinking.
The elders of the Lihuo Sect also raised their wine glasses.
"Come, let's drink to Chen Yu!"
. . . . . .
Xiaba County is a must-pass place when traveling from Shangfeng County to Sangnai County.
At this moment, the scorching sun is hanging in the sky, scorching the earth.
The county was in a state of ruin.
Some people were so thin that they were just skin and bones lying on the roadside, and some dead people were thrown on the street, surrounded by a group of buzzing flies.
But when you walk a little further along the street and arrive at the residence of County Magistrate Duan Heshun, the scene is completely different.
There is a small bridge and flowing water in the yard, like a garden.
The servant stood on the small bridge, throwing food into the pond, attracting a group of goldfish to gather and roll around.
Each fish is plump and bright in color.
There were also servants trimming the flowers and plants in the yard.
Because of the severe drought, in order to keep the flowers and plants from lacking water, there are special servants who constantly water the flowers and plants in the yard.
In the middle of the yard, there is a pavilion.
Duan Heshun, a fat man with a mustache, was lying in a recliner with his eyes squinted.
A maid was pressing his head, and another maid was putting a peeled orange into his mouth.
There was also a maid carefully pressing his legs.
Birds singing, flowers blooming, and delicious food in front of you.
Everything is so beautiful.
"Master, Master. This is bad. Some people are going to the county government office again to beat drums and complain about their grievances."
The housekeeper ran over to report to Duan Heshun.
Duan Heshun frowned and slowly opened his eyes.
"Beat the drums to complain? What do they want to do?"
