Chapter 95: When one person succeeds
, everyone else will benefit. Wei Zhongxian would certainly carry out Ji Changsheng's orders to the letter.
The lesson of Du Zongjiang was still fresh in Wei Zhongxian's mind. Du Zongjiang was the outer sect elder of Danqing Pavilion, but Ji Changsheng killed him just because he said so. This really opened Wei Zhongxian's eyes.
He only wanted to cling to Elder Ji's thighs and absolutely did not want to stand against Elder Ji.
"I will go right away."
"Also, tell the Queen Mother that I want to make the word 'Ru Gou' disappear forever. The independent cultivators and common people who were deceived by this word before should be compensated with blessed land or spiritual stones."
Wei Zhongxian did not agree decisively this time. He first expressed his attitude: "Elder Ji, I absolutely support your decision, but it is difficult to proceed with this matter because the national treasury does not have enough spiritual stones. Compared with the area of Shengguo Fudi that disappeared, the national treasury definitely cannot afford to compensate."
Take a stand first.
I support you.
But objective conditions do not allow it.
A good cook cannot cook without rice.
I need your advice.
Although he had only followed Ji Changsheng for one day, Wei Zhongxian had already seen clearly that Elder Ji was definitely a result-oriented boss.
No matter how readily he agreed before, as long as the final result was not good, he would immediately accompany Du Zongjiang to the Western Paradise to enjoy happiness.
Therefore, Wei Zhongxian must first lay out the objective conditions and then act according to Elder Ji's instructions.
Ji Changsheng did not make things difficult for Wei Zhongxian.
If he couldn't even conjure up a magic stone, Wei Zhongxian certainly couldn't do it either.
But in this world, there is a solution to almost everything.
It all depends on whether you are willing to scrape the bone and cure the poison.
Ji Changsheng is willing.
Anyway, it's not his bones that are being scraped.
What he was trying to cure was the poison of the entire Sheng country.
"Let the emperor issue an imperial decree to cancel the 'Ru Gu' measure. From now on, if there is a discrepancy between the area and the area on the blessed land certificate, a penalty of ten will be imposed for each missing area. For those that were missing in the past, there will be no need to impose a penalty of ten for each missing area. Instead, compensation will be paid at a 1:1 ratio."
Cao Ziming was sincerely convinced: "Junior Brother Ji, you are really kind-hearted."
Ji Changsheng nodded in agreement: "I think so too."
Wei Zhongxian did not dare to refute.
He just said: "It's no problem for His Majesty to issue an imperial decree."
Anyway, the current emperor of Sheng Kingdom is just a brick.
They move wherever they are needed.
He couldn't even utter a word, and his imperial edict was just a formality.
Whatever the Queen Mother says goes.
Whatever Elder Ji says, the Queen Mother does it.
"Even Your Majesty can't conjure up money," Wei Zhongxian reminded.
Ji Changsheng lowered his eyes, a shadow shrouded him, and his voice was like a cold poisonous snake, which made Wei Zhongxian shudder.
"Your Majesty has issued an imperial decree, and there will definitely be people below who will oppose it."
Wei Zhongxian nodded subconsciously.
Although the emperor is a good person, the statement that bad things are done by his subordinates is definitely an insult to people's IQ.
But the interests of the emperor and those below him are indeed not tied together in all matters.
Many times, when the emperor wanted to do something, the people below would work together tacitly to stop him.
The imperial power is very strong, but it cannot rule the world.
Especially in this world where people can practice cultivation, the imperial power is actually not as strong as that in ancient Blue Star.
"We need these people who oppose us. If we don't have enough money, we can ask them for it." Ji Changsheng said dimly, "Confiscate the homes of these people who oppose us, and we will naturally have enough spirit stones!"
Wei Zhongxian: “…”
"Why? Do you have any other opinions?"
Ji Changsheng looked at Wei Zhongxian.
Wei Zhongxian shuddered and said decisively: "Elder Ji is concerned about the country and the people. I admire him very much and have no objection. I will report to the Queen Mother and convey Elder Ji's instructions."
Ji Changsheng continued to instruct, "It's not my instructions, it's your Majesty's instructions. All of this is your Majesty's intention. It has nothing to do with me, you, or the Queen Mother."
Wei Zhongxian nodded seriously: "I understand."
Confiscating property is not a good reputation.
And these people who were copied all have backgrounds.
The deputy prime minister had already made it very clear before that many of their descendants had joined the major immortal sects.
So if you want to take action against them, you need a nominal scapegoat.
The new king who has just ascended the throne is very suitable.
Although Ji Changsheng is not afraid, as a righteous man, he can do just things and get his hands dirty with blood, but he must always stand up for the greater good.
"Work hard for me, and I'll give you a Golden Jade Duanxu Pill the day I leave Shengguo."
Wei Zhongxian was overjoyed: "Thank you, Elder Ji."
In this world where one can practice cultivation, some injuries can be healed.
For example, for these eunuchs who were castrated, unless special methods were used, ordinary castration could not stop them from practicing.
Only when one reaches the level of a scripture-transmitting elder, whose limbs have been shattered by Old Demon Yu himself, will there be no possibility of recovery - it cannot be said that there is no possibility of recovery, but one will have to rely on the elixirs from the prehistoric fairyland.
The elixirs in this world can’t do that.
But Ji Changsheng was able to make Wei Zhongxian bow down to his former glory.
The Golden Jade Restore Pill is not considered a rare medicine in Xuandu Temple. It is used to restore broken limbs.
For Ji Changsheng, buying a Golden Jade Duanxu Pill was very easy.
But for Wei Zhongxian, if it weren't for Ji Changsheng, this would be a treasure he would never see in his life.
"Work hard, this elder never mistreats his own people."
"I understand."
Wei Zhongxian left the prison with murderous intent.
This departure will surely be the end of many princes and nobles.
But Wei Zhongxian saw his bright future.
…
Ying Hongye looked at Ji Changsheng, and the applause represented her admiration.
"Changsheng, have you ever worked in the imperial court before?"
"Why do you say that?"
"You are very skilled at framing others, calling a black cat a white cat, and manipulating people's hearts and minds, including those of your subordinates."
Ying Hongye felt inferior: "I have been trained by the royal family of Ying Kingdom since I was a child, but my skills in this area are not even half as good as yours."
Before meeting Ji Changsheng, Ying Hongye never thought of herself as stupid.
Among her peers, she has always been considered the most mentally mature.
But after meeting Ji Changsheng, Ying Hongye opened up a new world.
How could a person be so shameless?
Ji Changsheng thought to himself, I have really been there before.
The intrigues at the end of the universe are much more intense than those of your system which is still in the feudal ancient times.
At that time, the rules and regulations were more complete and the supervision was stricter, and one had to act in the name of justice to achieve one's goals.
It was different under the ancient feudal system. The means did not need to be so aboveboard, so they did not need to be too grand.
Although Ying Hongye received an orthodox royal elite education, the difficulty of learning from top to bottom and climbing from bottom to top is naturally different.
Moreover, one relies on teachers and learns from books, while the other is taught and learned in reality. Naturally, Ji Changsheng has made greater progress than Ying Hongye.
"Junior Sister Ying, what are you talking about?"
Cao Ziming was not happy to hear that.
"Junior Brother Ji is just concerned about the country and the people. He used some tricks based on his concern for the country and the people. I didn't see any of the framing, calling a black cat a white cat, or manipulating people's hearts. I only saw Junior Brother Ji's loyalty and his efforts to uphold justice for the people and independent cultivators who were unable to protect themselves. Whoever accuses Junior Brother Ji is my enemy."
What can Ying Hongye say?
She could only roll her eyes at Ji Changsheng and complain, "Changsheng, look at what you've done to Brother Cao. Don't ever go to Danqing Pavilion again. I'm afraid you'll go in sideways and come out lying down."
Ji Changsheng shrugged: "Hongye, believe me, the elders of Danqing Pavilion will definitely be very grateful to me. Senior Brother Cao has perfectly achieved his purpose of going down the mountain to gain experience, and all this is thanks to me."
"It's true that it's your 'merit', but it won't stop the elders of Danqing Pavilion from beating you up." Ying Hongye said, "Believe me, Danqing Pavilion definitely didn't intend to turn Senior Brother Cao into this kind of person. You're using too much force. Those elders just want Senior Brother Cao to gain more experience and skills, not to train you to be a demon from the Demon Cult."
Cao Ziming frowned even more: "Junior Sister Ying, what nonsense are you talking about? How can I be a demon from the Demon Cult? Don't you see the righteousness shining in me?"
Cao Ziming once again released his righteous spirit.
The light of righteousness flickered in the cell.
Ji Changsheng nodded with satisfaction.
"Hongye, what you said is indeed wrong. If the demons of the Demon Cult have such means, can they still be demons of the Demon Cult? Are they worthy of accusing Senior Brother Cao?"
If the evil cult's demons can roam the world with holy light shining all over their bodies, they can truly be called a holy cult.
pity.
The special effects of the Demonic Sect's skills are obviously those of the devil.
Ji Changsheng hated this deeply.
If he didn't know illusion, he wouldn't be able to hide his identity as a disciple of the Demonic Sect.
At least pretend.
The Xuandu Temple cultivates the energy of merit and virtue, which shines with golden light.
Danqing Pavilion cultivates righteousness and purity.
What about the Demonic Cult?
Either it's a sea of blood or it's a mountain of bones.
Or there may be gusts of cold wind and the howling of resentful souls.
That's it, and you still brag about yourself being a holy religion all day long?
How can anyone believe it? As the young leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect, Ji Changsheng was very worried about his future.
When I go to the Demonic Sect in the future, I will definitely teach those idiots a lesson and let them see how the Holy Sect is practiced.
Ying Hongye looked at Ji Changsheng who was arguing confidently and Cao Ziming who was deeply possessed by the devil, and shook his head helplessly.
"I know what my problem is. No wonder I am the weakest among the three of us."
"What's your problem?"
"I'm not as shameless as you, Changsheng, nor as naive as Senior Brother Cao. Cultivation must be carried out to the extreme, and I'm stuck in the middle. The aura of merit and the aura of righteousness are not what I thought before. It seems that I have to adjust my cognition in time."
Ying Hongye is actually making quite a bit of progress.
She just met a pervert like Ji Changsheng.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
The time it takes to break through a realm is calculated in days. Even Fairy Linglong wasn't so exaggerated back then.
So Ying Hongye was a little irritated.
Cao Ziming learned from Ji Changsheng and actually made a huge breakthrough in his cultivation in a short period of time, which also stimulated Ying Hongye.
However, Ying Hongye was still somewhat unwilling.
"I am a princess of Ying country and a righteous fairy. Do I have to learn from you, Changsheng, how to be a demon witch?"
Ying Hongye sighed to the sky: "Brother Cao has no brains, but I still have some. Changsheng, if I follow you, unless you are invincible, sooner or later everyone in the world will be your enemy."
Ying Hongye didn’t think that Ji Changsheng was an undercover agent of the Demon Cult.
As I said, the disciples of the Demon Sect are not that arrogant.
Not to mention being so unscrupulous.
But Ying Hongye felt that Ji Changsheng was much more exaggerated and dangerous than the disciples of the Demon Cult.
Ji Changsheng patted Ying Hongye's shoulders and reminded her, "Hongye, Senior Sister and I once discussed the situation in the prehistoric fairyland and came to a conclusion - the so-called Daozu and the Six Saints are invincible, which actually means that when Daozu attains the Tao, everyone else will rise to heaven. Before that, whether it was the Six Saints or the Jade Emperor, they did not have a big gap with other Quasi-Saints, and some were even obviously inferior to other Daluo."
Ying Hongye's face turned pale: "Changsheng, are you crazy? How dare you discuss such a topic?"
"It's okay. The temple master has said that Master Taiqing has been making frequent movements in the prehistoric fairyland. The secrets of heaven are in disarray, and the saints can't rely on them to lock everything down. Now is the best time to discuss these topics."
Ying Hongye and Cao Ziming were both moved.
They really don't know these things.
Ji Changsheng continued: "What can you learn from the rise of the Six Saints and Lord Haotian?"
Ying Hongye pondered and said, "Is standing in the right team more important than ability?"
Ji Changsheng looked at Ying Hongye with approval, "I said that you have a future, Hongye, and you are right. Stand on the right side first, then show your ability. Back then, the two tribes of witches and liches were invincible in the world, so strong that they didn't take Daozu seriously at all, and they all claimed to have the power to kill saints, but now they have been blown away by the wind and rain. Among the six saints, let's not talk about the Three Pure Ones and Nuwa Niangniang for now, just talk about the two from the Western Church, they all became saints by borrowing money from the Heavenly Dao. According to my senior sister, she can beat the two Western saints as a Daluo. What's the use? Taiyin Xingjun is cold and arrogant, and he is alone, but the two Western saints have Daozu's thighs to hold, so they have the last laugh."
Ying Hongye and Cao Ziming both remained silent.
One of these two people is a princess of the Ying Kingdom, and the other is a disciple of the Danqing Pavilion, and both of them have followers.
Therefore, they actually know some information about the Six Saints.
The Three Pure Ones are cheating beings, with reincarnation techniques being the best in the world. They are the incarnations of the spirit of the great god Pangu, and are born with infinite merits in creating the world.
Ji Changsheng is now working desperately to gain merits, but all the merits he gains are acquired merits.
From the day they were born, the Three Pure Ones possessed the merits of Pangu, the great god, in creating the world, which are innate merits.
In terms of reincarnation techniques, the Three Pure Ones are born at the end point.
More authentic than the Taoist ancestor.
Comparing with them is just asking for trouble. No matter who of these three comes to the top, he will basically win without any effort.
Nuwa is of a higher generation than the Three Pure Ones.
The most important thing is that when Nuwa was dominating the ancient fairyland with the wizards and liches, she was already one of the four kings of the demon clan and was at the top of the food chain.
Everyone has no objection to the fact that Nuwa can become a saint.
What made the other quasi-saints most dissatisfied were the two saints of the Western Church.
The Three Pure Ones rely on the origins of Pangu's primordial spirit, and Nuwa relies on her strength and qualifications, and they can all convince the public.
But before the two saints of the Western Religion clung to the support of Daozu, they were only at the middle level among the Daluo.
There was no way they could even get in line.
Li Changxi was very dissatisfied.
The Moon shines brightly in the sky. In her words, if she was unhappy back then, she could plunge the Western Church's territory into eternal trouble, and the two men from the Western Church could do nothing to her.
The reason why the two saints of Western religion were able to rise to power was all because they had a good relationship with their superiors.
"The two saints of the Western Church made countless great vows to the Heavenly Dao, saying that they would do these things after they became saints, provided that I could become a saint. Then the Heavenly Dao lent them the strength of the saints, and they used the strength of the saints to repay the debts they owed to the Heavenly Dao. Do you understand?"
Ying Hongye and Cao Ziming both nodded.
Ying Hongye complained directly: "This is similar to the blessed land business model, and there is no difference in essence. When Sheng Taiping did the blessed land business, he also borrowed spirit stones from Tongtian Chamber of Commerce first. After the blessed land was built, he sold the blessed land and then slowly repaid the loan to Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. The two saints of the Western Church just changed the borrowing of spirit stones into borrowing cultivation, and the object of the borrowing changed from Tongtian Chamber of Commerce to Tiandao. To put it bluntly, it was a backdoor. At Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, people without background can't borrow spirit stones at all. And Tiandao only lends the cultivation to the two saints of the West, and does not lend the cultivation to other quasi-saints and Daluo saints."
Ji Changsheng snapped his fingers. "That's essentially what's going on. So there are differences between saints. The Three Pure Ones and Lady Nuwa are genuine saints, but the two from the Western Church are saints who have borrowed money. They are prepaying their future cultivation. In essence, they are quasi-saints, and the Heavenly Dao has forcibly strengthened them. The problem is that the Heavenly Dao is the Dao Ancestor. So to put it bluntly, the Dao Ancestor is supporting his own people. If you hold onto the right thigh, even a pig can help you get to the top. It has been like this since ancient times, and it will remain so in the future."
Ying Hongye and Cao Ziming did not refute.
Although the saint is high above, Ji Changsheng's analysis is well-reasoned and convincing.
"Putting aside the filter of saints, the Three Pure Ones rely on their birth, the two in the Western religion rely on their connections, and only Nuwa relies on merit and self-struggle. In fact, I admire Nuwa the most." Ji Changsheng said.
So he is also walking on the path of merit.
"So to put it bluntly, even if you reach the level of a saint, it still depends on your team and background. Hongye, don't you think I have the qualities to be a saint?"
Ji Changsheng suddenly changed the topic and Ying Hongye almost didn't react.
"Changsheng... You said you are invincible in the world, and I reluctantly agree. But you said you are a saint, but that's a bit exaggerated."
"As a human being, you still have to have dreams. What if they come true? Let's take a step back and ask, am I invincible in the world?"
Ying Hongye and Cao Ziming both nodded subconsciously.
In terms of strength, Ji Changsheng is still far behind.
But in terms of means and courage, they have indeed never seen anyone of their age who is stronger than Ji Changsheng.
"Imagine that a hundred years from now, I will be in charge of Xuandu Temple, Senior Brother Cao will be in charge of Danqing Pavilion, and Hongye, you will be the Human Emperor of Ying State. Whether the world will be in chaos by then will be decided by the three of us."
Ying Hongye and Cao Ziming were involuntarily put into the future described by Ji Changsheng.
Seriously, it's very tempting.
Even for Cao Ziming, it is very tempting.
He had never thought of becoming the head of Danqing Pavilion before, because he himself believed from the bottom of his heart that Du Zongsheng was more suitable than him.
But after seeing what the Du family did, Cao Ziming's thoughts were shaken.
Senior Brother Du is not as good as he thought.
In this case, there are some things that we must take on.
He has never been one to shirk responsibility.
And he feels that he has made great progress recently.
In the past, he was indeed not suitable to be the head of Danqing Pavilion.
But now he is learning from Ji Changsheng. Who says that if it was not suitable before, it will not be suitable in the future? Besides, isn't there Junior Brother Ji to guide me? Even Cao Ziming was like this, Ying Hongye was even more excited.
Her ambitions were greater than Cao Ziming's from the very beginning.
Although Emperor Ying was defeated that year, the Ying Kingdom was not destroyed.
The fire is still there.
It’s just that Ying Hongye didn’t see the hope that the spark could turn into a raging fire.
But from Ji Changsheng, Ying Hongye saw a glimmer of hope.
Because Ji Changsheng is really shameless and has extraordinary means.
Most importantly, she was willing to believe Ji Changsheng.
Although Ji Changsheng does things by any means necessary, he has never had a criminal record of targeting his own people.
Whether it was towards her or Cao Ziming, Ji Changsheng treated her with sincerity.
Ji Changsheng's sword is only used against external enemies.
Only by working with a boss like this who is ruthless but always protects his own people can you feel safe.
Ying Hongye is not naive. If Ji Changsheng is as pure and flawless as Cao Ziming, she would not dare to place her hopes on Ji Changsheng.
It is precisely because Ji Changsheng is unscrupulous that he is more trustworthy.
"Hongye, you have both talent and background, but the historical problems left over from the Ying Kingdom are too serious. If you stay in the Immortal Gate, whether it is in Xuandu Temple or Danqing Pavilion, you will never reach the highest point, and you know this very well." Ji Changsheng said.
Ying Hongye nodded.
This has nothing to do with her talent.
The past of the Ying Kingdom is there.
None of the major immortal sects would allow the descendants of Emperor Ying to become their leader.
Even Danqing Pavilion can't do that.
After all, Danqing Pavilion is still a spiritual sect. They can support Ying State, but it must be independent support rather than becoming a vassal of Ying State.
"Brother Cao, your talent and skills are not top-notch. Theoretically, you are not qualified to compete for the top position of the immortal sect leader in the world."
Cao Ziming also nodded.
Ji Changsheng waved his hand and said, "But these are not important. If I say you can do it, then you can do it. Follow me and I will help you rise to the top in Ying State and Danqing Pavilion. Believe me, no one is more suitable than you. There has never been a savior. We have to rely on ourselves and cannot pin our hopes on others."
Cao Ziming was completely convinced: "Junior Brother Ji is right, there has never been a savior, we have to rely on ourselves."
Ying Hongye also nodded slowly.
"When one person succeeds, all his chickens and dogs will prosper. When I succeed, you and Hongye will win together. I can't trust others, so I can only trust you. Brother Cao, you should be a chicken. Hongye, you will be comfortable, just be a beautiful dog for me."
Ying Hongye kicked out.
She was a little confused about whether this guy's last sentence was a sincere exchange of sincerity with her.
