Chapter 65: King Gan
Inside the main hall of Qingshan Sect, Liu Wuchang had a solemn expression on his face. In front of him were various boxes filled with spiritual stones and medicinal herbs. These were hundreds of times more valuable than what he had extorted from various families on the day of the Qingshan Ceremony. Even he, who was in the Spirit Transformation Stage, felt tempted.
If this was collected by various noble families, Liu Wuchang would not be so surprised, but these were collected by one family.
Liu Wuchang no longer looked at the treasures in the boxes, but looked at the middle-aged man standing in front of the boxes, Miao Wujiang, the head of the Miao family.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Wuchang said calmly, "The Miao family has developed well in recent years, as they were able to come up with all these easily. I was wrong. What are you planning?"
Miao Wujiang put his hands behind his back and did not hide anything. He expressed his ambition, "to be promoted to a higher position and to be the king."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Wuchang's face suddenly changed, "Do you know what you are talking about!?"
The Dayu Dynasty used the power of national destiny to suppress the Great World to prevent the Great Wilderness chaos from coming back. Officials are connected to other officials, forming a big network that connects all the territories together.
Because it concerns the destiny of the country, the Dayu Dynasty was extremely cautious in selecting officials and almost never recruited children from aristocratic families.
It is impossible for a family like the Miao family, which has extremely close ties with the clan, to serve as an official in the Dayu Dynasty, and the position of King Gan mentioned by Miao Wujiang is even more nonsense. Only those who are deeply trusted by the Dayu Dynasty can get this position, and those people are all royal relatives without exception.
Ganzhou is a small place, and no royal relative would look up to it, but this does not mean that the Dayu Dynasty would allow the Miao people to sit in this position.
"Since I dare to tell you, I naturally have the confidence—"
As he spoke, Miao raised his hands and clapped his hands. The box in the middle opened with a bang, a formation opened, a dragon roared, and a light blue dragon emerged from it and swam in the formation.
The Great Elder stood up and exclaimed, "Dragon Mark?!"
Liu Wuchang was equally surprised, but calmer. He quickly discovered that there was something wrong with the dragon pattern. "This is not a dragon pattern."
Miao Wujiang did not hide it and simply nodded, "Yes, this is a dragon pattern. It is one of the betrothal gifts given to our Miao family by a royal relative. When the Miao family takes the throne of the King, he will use the power of national destiny to transform it into a real dragon pattern."
When talking about the betrothal gift, Miao Wujiang raised his head proudly.
This is the real confidence of the Miao family in their attempt to seize the throne.
"Dowry?" Liu Wuchang's breathing paused.
"To be honest with you, Brother Liu, when my daughter came to Qingshan Sect last year, she was spotted by a royal relative. He came to my Miao family to propose marriage. He promised that as long as my daughter could break through to the Nascent Soul stage before she was eighteen, he would marry her and help my Miao family become the dry king! As for who that royal relative is, I can't reveal too much. I can only tell you that his surname is Ji!"
Miao Wujiang put his hands behind his back and raised his head confidently.
All the elders of Qingshan Sect took a deep breath.
The Ji surname is more than just royal relatives, but in this case it is not so strange that Miao Wujiang has dragon patterns.
Liu Wuchang frowned slightly, "I remember your Miao family is not related to..."
Before Liu Wuchang finished speaking, Miao Wujiang replied calmly, "It's just nonsense after drinking."
…
Miao Qianqian glanced at the Enlightenment Stone, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She obviously saw the extraordinary nature of the Enlightenment Stone, but what surprised her even more was Cheng Yuejie's cultivation.
Last year, Miao Qianqian also met Cheng Yuejie. At that time, Cheng Yuejie was already in the late stage of foundation building, but she could see that it would be impossible for Cheng Yuejie to break through to the golden elixir stage within two years. But now Cheng Yuejie has become a golden elixir, and her whole body exudes extremely abundant and pure spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Thinking of the thousands of kilograms of spiritual fruits that Miao Niao Lin mentioned, Miao Qianqian understood everything and was no longer surprised at Cheng Yuejie.
In Miao Qianqian's opinion, thousands of kilograms of spiritual fruits could not appear out of thin air. It should have taken at least more than a year. Only after eating spiritual fruits for more than a year could one reach the golden elixir stage. If it were given to her, she was sure that she would have reached the middle stage of the golden elixir stage now.
"Miao Qianqian, this is the important place of Qingshan Sect. Only the inner disciples of Qingshan Sect can come here. Leave quickly!"
Cheng Yuejie was extremely angry at Miao Qianqian's cold attitude towards Li Yanmo, and she no longer concealed her Jindan stage cultivation.
Miao Qianqian, who was still in the foundation-building stage, naturally could not withstand the pressure of the golden elixir stage, but a ray of soft light lit up from the jade pendant on Miao Qianqian's waist, and easily resisted the power of Cheng Yuejie's golden elixir. A dragon roar was even heard, and an imperial aura descended.
Cheng Yuejie was shocked. Miao Qianqian was a rare prodigy of the Miao family and a disciple that Chongshan Sect focused on training. But she didn't think that the Miao family and Chongshan Sect could produce such a magic weapon with an imperial aura.
Li Yanmo stared at the jade pendant around Miao Qianqian's waist with a strange expression.
He seemed to have seen a similar jade pendant on someone's waist half a year ago, but the jade pendant on that person's waist was not one, but a bunch.
Miao Qianqian snorted coldly and glanced at Li Yanmo. Seeing that Li Yanmo was staring at her, she showed undisguised displeasure in her eyes and her tone became increasingly cold and harsh. "You are only in your early twenties and are only now practicing Qigong. You have no talent for swordsmanship at all. Such a person should not be in front of this enlightenment stone."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Yuejie became furious. With a wave of her hand, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth condensed into a giant sword and fell towards Miao Qianqian.
Miao Qianqian never thought that Cheng Yuejie, the eldest disciple of Qingshan Sect, would actually take action for a seventh-level Qi training cultivator, so she quickly took a step back. The jade pendant on Miao Qianqian's waist also sensed Miao Qianqian's life-and-death crisis, and a dragon shadow emerged from it.
Miao Wujiang, who was waiting for Liu Wuchang's answer in the main hall, suddenly became distraught. "Oh no! My daughter is in danger!"
After saying that, Miao Wujiang immediately turned around and flew into the air. Liu Wuchang was stunned at first, but when he felt that the attack was launched by Cheng Yuejie, he realized a possibility. His face turned pale and he flew out at a faster speed.
Miao Wujiang was a powerful warrior who was half a step away from becoming a god. In a blink of an eye, he came to Miao Qianqian and broke the sword of spiritual energy with a wave of his hand.
Miao Wujiang originally wanted to kill the bastard who wanted to kill his daughter with one palm, but he was stunned when he saw that the other person was Cheng Yuejie.
At this time, Liu Wuchang also rushed over. Seeing Li Yanmo was there, Liu Wuchang almost vomited blood.
Cheng Yuejie took a deep breath, bowed, and told Liu Wuchang what had just happened.
After listening to this, Miao Wujiang just felt depressed.
The eldest disciple of Qingshan Sect actually disregarded the friendship between the Miao family and Qingshan Sect and took action for a man who was at the seventh level of Qi training.
"Brother Liu, your disciple is really great."
Miao Wujiang thought that after revealing the inside story that he would become the King of Gan with the help of the royal family, he had the upper hand in front of the Qingshan Sect, so he started to mock without any hesitation.
But Liu Wuchang just looked at him sideways and said, "I will praise my disciple later. Now you can take those things and get out of Qingshan Sect."
The Miao family father and daughter were stunned.
