Chapter 316 He is the reincarnation of the immortal!
Tie Xiaoyan had no means to contact Li Yanmo directly, so Tie Xiaoyan contacted Shen Ziqing.
"Tianyin Demon Sect? The Saint of Tianyin Demon Sect and the Taoist Emissary took the Saint Candidate as a souvenir?"
After listening to Tie Xiaoyan's description, Shen Ziqing's face was full of question marks, but Shen Ziqing quickly came back to his senses from this situation full of complaints and thought about the possibilities behind this action.
Only their own people knew that Li Yanmo was the powerful one who could mobilize the heavenly tribulation. Even the two sects involved, Hunyuan Sect and Xuantian Sect, did not know Li Yanmo's identity. The Tianyin Demon Sect, which had not been involved in the expedition at all, was even less likely to know the details.
However, the Tianyin Demon Sect came to Ganzhou. It didn't seem to be very high-profile, even very low-key, but the personnel configuration could not be ignored.
Shen Ziqing mobilized his intelligence network at the first opportunity.
Hongxia is both a Taoist envoy and the holy maiden of the Tianyin Demon Sect. It is impossible for her to keep a low profile.
The more Hongxia tried to hide her whereabouts, the more conspicuous she would be. So this time Hongxia did not hide her actions and strolled around everywhere openly, but she did not get much information after the whole trip.
After taking such a long detour to come to Ganzhou, it is obvious that he intends to contact Tianxu Tower in a low-key manner.
But Shen Ziqing also noticed another problem, Hong Muer did not appear in the intelligence.
Hongxia came in a low profile, but completely hid Hong Muer's existence, as if she did not intend to let anyone know that Hong Muer had come to Ganzhou.
So Hong Muer was really treated as a souvenir?
Giving away a candidate for saint as a souvenir is indeed a shameful thing, but the problem is that the Tianyin Demon Sect is a super sect, and its leader Hong Menglian is an invincible existence of the same era. What does it mean for the Tianyin Demon Sect to give away Hong Muer as a souvenir?
It is not enough to just realize that those ancient caves belong to Tianxu Tower.
unless……
Shen Ziqing, who was pacing back and forth thinking, paused.
"The Tianyin Demon Sect knows that the man is the master, so is this trip a test, or a gesture of goodwill? Or... both?"
"No... at that time, there was no one else in the Nine Yin Land except the master and the three people and Xiang Mo. It was impossible for the Tianyin Demon Sect to know that the person who drove the heavenly tribulation was the master. Unless... this was done intentionally by the master."
Shen Ziqing soon had an idea, and after quickly replying to Tie Xiaoyan, Shen Ziqing picked up another talisman.
After a moment, an old but frivolous voice, like that of an old naughty boy, came from the talisman.
“Hey – Brother Shen, what’s the matter?”
Shen Ziqing heard a familiar scream from the other party’s voice, “Mr. Mei, are you beating your apprentice again?”
“Brother Shen, my disciples lack experience in fighting against those in the fusion stage. I am training them.”
"Really? Never mind, Mr. Mei, I have something to ask of you."
“Help—Brother Shen, you are too polite. If you have anything to say, just tell me!”
"The Saint of Tianyin Demon Sect has brought the Saint of Tianyin Demon Sect's candidate here, saying that they are here to give us some souvenirs. Take a look..."
“…Brother Shen, you are too rude.”
…
After Tie Xiaoyan received Shen Ziqing's reply, she did not go to find Hongxia immediately, but continued to deal with the account books.
It is not an easy thing to work in the Chamber of Commerce in the world without any background. The sect will take a share in the name of protection, which is indeed very sympathetic, but it is the Chamber of Commerce itself that chooses to bow to the sect and does not believe in the military sect. It is also the Chamber of Commerce itself that does some illegal operations to please the sect.
Therefore, Dayu's Ministry of Revenue would never be merciful, and the taxes collected would never be less. If the Chamber of Commerce benefited the people, the Ministry of Revenue would also issue subsidies and grants according to the situation.
Looking at the huge subsidies and grants from the Ministry of Households in the account book, Tie Xiaoyan didn't quite understand. She just regarded it as a test from Dayu's Ministry of Households. She would return all that could be returned, and invest what could not be returned into the development of Ganzhou.
I won’t take a penny anyway.
By the time I finished my work, it was almost dark.
Tie Xiaoyan fixed her makeup, took some refreshments and set off to the courtyard where Hongxia was resting.
At this time, Hongxia was sitting under a tree drinking tea, with the moonlight shining on her face, like a dream. Even Tie Xiaoyan was attracted by Hongxia's profile and lost in thought for a moment, while Hong Muer was still hanging upside down on the treetop.
Tie Xiaoyan thought of bacon, or salted fish.
Hongxia put down her teacup and said with a smile, "Iron Girl - Good evening, have you finished your work?"
"It's not that easy," Tie Xiaoyan sat opposite Hongxia at Hongxia's signal, took the teacup handed to her by Hongxia, and laid out the tea and snacks, "But I contacted Master Shen and learned some things about Master Li."
"Oh?" A light flashed in Hongxia's eyes.
Hong Muer, who was hung upside down, brightened up her eyes.
After struggling for a whole day, Hong Muer had given up. Hongxia would never let go until Li Yanmo came back, so Hong Muer was extremely eager for Li Yanmo to come back soon.
“It seems that Mr. Shen and Mr. Li have a good relationship,” Hongxia shook the teacup gently, recalling the information about Shen Ziqing.
“Of course it’s good, Master Shen is Master Li’s second disciple.”
Hongxia's eyes narrowed and the movement of shaking the cup paused. Even Hong Muer's eyes widened.
Countless conjectures reappeared, were overturned, and reorganized, and finally pointed to the direction of the ancient immortal's reincarnation and reconstruction.
It is no secret among the Taoist high-ranking officials that Shen Ziqing is the leader of Tianxu Tower. Some people have questioned why it took only hundreds of thousands of years for a leader like Shen Ziqing to emerge, and why he is so young and has such a low level of cultivation.
But when the tomb of Emperor Lie was placed there, those who had questioned it came up with the answer themselves.
Shen Ziqing was from Ganzhou, a family of merchants, with no monastic background. He was clean and very suitable for training.
Therefore, it is obvious that Shen Ziqing is the successor trained by someone among the senior executives of Tianxu Tower.
Shen Ziqing's clean background gave him opportunities, but it also led to his isolation, so Shen Ziqing took bold actions and tried to gain a foothold in Tianxu Tower by relying on his achievements. Tiexin Chamber of Commerce was one of them, and the secret cooperation with Yuanluo Sect also verified those people's speculations.
The purpose of Tianxu Tower is to hide its existence as much as possible, but Shen Ziqing is able to act as a member of Tianxu Tower, which shows that the person behind Shen Ziqing has great power in Tianxu Tower.
Now Tie Xiaoyan’s answer gave Hongxia and Hong Muer a clear answer.
Shen Ziqing's backer in Tianxu Tower is Li Yanmo.
A person who has all kinds of problems with his cultivation cannot obtain power, unless this person has extremely deep qualifications and extensive connections in Tianxu Tower. Even if there are problems with his cultivation, he still has extremely terrifying power.
For example, an ancient immortal was reincarnated and rebuilt.
Hongxia couldn't help but take a breath, and a hint of heat flashed in her eyes.
There is no need to test it anymore, Li Yanmo is the reincarnation of an ancient immortal!
