Upon hearing Yelü Shuke's words, Yan Song couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
He never expected that, besides the royal family, the Confucian school would also be targeting him.
These two are usually at odds, how come they're suddenly so harmonious?
Moreover, wasn't Emperor Jianyuan supporting him precisely to deal with Confucianism?
How come you ended up wearing the same pair of pants while you were fighting?
Are you guys just playing around?
"Lord Yan, there are still two retainers of the Yan family. If there's nothing else, it's best not to wander around," Mr. Shui Jing advised kindly, looking at the lake.
Yelü's brothers looked at him, gritted their teeth, and said, "Go back!"
They were not confident of defeating Lin Linfa, let alone this Confucian sage.
They are at the level of terrestrial immortals, entirely due to a combination of luck and hard work.
They are at the Land Immortal Realm because the highest realm in this world is only the Land Immortal Realm.
What's more, they have two disciples at the same level as them, watching them intently from the sidelines.
Thinking of this, the Yelü brothers could only slink away with Yan Song.
Zhuge Wolong looked at them and couldn't help but ask, "Master, why are we cooperating with the imperial court to target the Yan family?"
"Because these are the words of the acting sect leader, we must cooperate."
Pang Fengchu listened with some disdain: "What makes Zhang Jiadi think he can be the acting sect leader?"
"If you ask me, it's just that the sage has lived too long and gotten senile. No matter how you look at it, the position of sage belongs to you, Master..."
Upon hearing this, Mr. Shui Jing broke out in a cold sweat and lashed out with his fishing rod.
"shut your mouth!"
He glanced around, then looked at his two disciples with a solemn expression and instructed them, "From now on, whatever the acting sect leader says, you will do. Do you understand?"
"Why? On what grounds?"
Pang Fengchu covered his mouth, still somewhat dissatisfied.
A young man in his early twenties, who knew nothing, suddenly jumped several generations and was placed above him, so he was somewhat resentful.
"On what grounds?"
Shui Jing looked at him and said in a low voice, "Because they have powerful backers, although Master's divination is not as good as Mud Bodhisattva's, and his divine vision is not as good as Zhang Shengren's."
"But even I, your teacher, can barely see through some of the secrets of heaven."
He put his arms around his two apprentices' shoulders and said cautiously, "The Imperial Tutor of the Great Ming Dynasty, Mud Bodhisattva, told the fortune of Zhang Jiadi's sworn brother. Then he was punished by heaven."
"Our Confucian sage, upon hearing that he was coming to visit, had his destiny star extinguished. If he hadn't run away quickly, today would probably be his seventh day after death."
"So, do you think Zhang Jiadi, with such a powerful figure backing him, can become a Confucian sage?"
"Hiss~"
Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong gasped upon hearing this, realizing they had contributed to global warming.
"Everyone says that Marquis Anping is a disciple of a celestial being, and it seems that the reputation is well-deserved!"
Zhuge Wolong sighed, thinking to himself that after dealing with Yan Song, he would go and pay a visit to this divine marquis.
Upon hearing this, Master Shuijing sneered, "A disciple of a celestial being? Heh!"
"You two still don't understand what the phrase 'Lord of Heaven and Earth' represents?"
"These four words mean that even if Heaven comes, you have to kowtow to it twice before you dare to leave."
Zhuge Wolong: ...
Pang Fengchu: ...
Master Shuijing looked at his two disciples and shook his head: "So, from now on, cooperate well with Zhang Jiadi, the acting sect leader. If he asks, we should rush to do it."
"Yes, teacher!"
Hearing his two apprentices' words, he stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction.
Before he could finish explaining, he heard a noisy voice in the distance: "They're here! Let's go show our faces and see if we can make a connection with some supreme being."
After saying that, he took his two apprentices and hurried towards the front gate.
"Yan Song, you scoundrel, open the door! Don't hide inside and stay silent. I know you're home. You have the guts to collude with the Liao people, but you don't have the guts to open the door!"
Chen Da pounded on the tightly closed gate of the Yan residence and began to shout and curse.
Meanwhile, the local people had already taken control of the servants guarding the Yan residence.
Some people initially wanted to kill the guards, but Li Chang'an waved his hand, and no one dared to move.
After all, this marquis was not only rich and powerful, but also generous and handsome.
Everyone was thinking of making a good impression on Li Chang'an.
If I were to be favored by this marquis and become his servant, wouldn't I be set for life?
Upon hearing the knocking, Yan Song came out with the guards of the manor and the Yelü brothers.
"Who are you people, gathering a crowd to cause trouble at my Yan residence? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the imperial court? Are you planning a rebellion?"
Yan Song looked at the group of people and reprimanded them sternly.
When the people of Lantian County saw him with a group of guards, they all took a few steps back.
Li Chang'an, leaning on his knife, looked at Lord Yan and sneered, "What a big accusation! Coming to your Yan residence is considered rebellion? What would we be if we went to the Forbidden City?"
"Consider it a stroll!"
Wang Zhongxian chuckled and chimed in, "If Marquis Anping were to take a knife and lead men to the Forbidden City, that would just be a stroll."
Upon hearing his answer, Lin Linfa couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
As expected of the Eastern Depot's most perceptive and insightful admiral, this answer is awesome.
After all, no one would dare to pin the label of rebellion on this disciple of a deity.
The imperial court dared to accuse Yan Song of rebellion because he lacked the ability to do so.
And this disciple of the immortals truly possesses the ability to rebel.
Backed by Lingnan City, with ambiguous ties to Confucianism, and possessing extraordinary abilities, his armor has the power to destroy the world.
If you say he's going to rebel, he might actually rebel.
Yan Song looked at the immortal disciple who was smiling and resting with his sword because he was too tired from traveling, and his eyes were somewhat sharp.
"Lord Anping, my Yan family has never offended you, so why are you doing this?"
“There must be some misunderstanding between us,”
"If there's anything you need to discuss, why don't you come to my residence with me? It's not that we can't talk, but why bring these troublemakers here to cause trouble?"
Li Chang'an looked at him, leaning on the knife for a while to recover.
"Lord Yan, I don't know if there's a misunderstanding, but your son and your subordinate Qin Hui have confessed everything."
After he finished speaking, two sticks were dragged out from behind the crowd. Not an inch of their skin was intact; their bodies were covered in blood and gore.
Yan Song stared at the two sticks, his eyes blazing with fury.
He felt a surge of anger, especially when he saw Yan Shifan.
"Marquis Anping, how dare you treat my son so cruelly? Are you even human?"
Upon hearing this, Li Chang'an laughed loudly, "What, Lord Yan can't stand it?"
"I was merely using the same methods your son used on the common people on him. And you, Lord Yan, think I'm cruel?"
"When Lord Yan treated those young children and girls, did he ever feel cruel?"
