Duke hesitated for a long time outside Chaoge City, and finally stepped into the city. He had confirmed that this world happened to be in the time period of The Investiture of the Gods. The myths and legends were so close before his eyes that he couldn't help but want to get involved.
Duke integrated the strengths of many schools and felt that he had no rivals under the saint. He just took this opportunity to learn from the saint's methods. He had the Haotian Mirror with him, so it didn't matter if he couldn't win. At worst, he could just run away.
Thinking of this, I was a little excited! Chaoge City was a bit chaotic, and this chaos referred to the imperial city. Duke asked around and found out the current situation.
A few years ago, King Zhou was burning incense at the Nuwa Temple. A gust of wind blew by and he saw the clay statue of Nüwa with a shocking appearance. Despite the objections of his ministers, he wrote the blasphemous poem "If only I could be charming and able to move, I could take back Changle to serve the king".
King Zhou was proud of his literary talent. After returning to the palace, he was still obsessed with Nüwa's beauty. Then he took a concubine named Daji.
Afterwards, Queen Jiang was framed and killed by Daji. King Zhou's two sons escaped from Chaoge. Daji took charge of the harem and eliminated Queen Huang, Bigan, Shang Rong and others.
When a country is about to perish, evil will appear. Huang Feihu, the King of Wucheng, rebelled in Chaoge. Fei Zhong and You Hun used clever words to gain power. Together with Daji, they brought disaster to the court.

Then……
The Taoist outside the camp gate was Duke. He changed into a green Taoist robe, caught a strange beast in the mountains, and transformed it into the image of Garurumon. He deliberately made things difficult before to show his ability, otherwise if he took the initiative to surrender, he would inevitably be despised by Wen Zhong.
The remaining three of the Four Heavenly Lords of Huanghua Mountain pleaded guilty for Deng Zhong and vowed to join forces to capture the enemy and send him to Wen Zhong's tent. Wen Zhong nodded in agreement, and became a little curious about the uninvited Taoist priest. He mounted the black unicorn and walked towards the camp gate.
At this time, the 300,000-strong army of the Shang Dynasty passed Huanghua Mountain. Wen Zhong was delighted to have the four Heavenly Lords of Huanghua Mountain, Deng Xin, Zhang Tao, and was more confident in conquering Xiqi. Deng Xin, Zhang Tao and the other four had either rare treasures, or were highly skilled in martial arts, or were born with visions. They were all rare generals. Together with Wen Zhong's two disciples, Yu Qing and Ji Li, the army suddenly had more soldiers and generals, and was in high spirits.
Duke didn't bother to pay attention to him and patted the back of Garurumon's neck. The silver-white giant wolf roared and stomped hard on Deng Zhong with one claw. When the three Tianjuns arrived, they happened to see this scene. The four brothers had a deep brotherly love. Seeing Deng Zhong being humiliated, they immediately took out their weapons and attacked Duke.
The vanguard officer reported again that Deng Zhong fought with the enemy, but was captured alive before he could even take three moves.
Duke put away his spear and said, "I have heard of your great name for a long time. I heard that you were ordered to suppress the rebellion, so I waited here specially. I am willing to join the army as a vanguard!"
Deng Zhong, the leader of the four heavenly kings of Huanghua Mountain, was tied up like a dumpling with ropes and fell at the feet of the Garuru beast. His face was as blue as indigo, his hair was like cinnabar, his face was green and his fangs were like an evil ghost. His weapon was a mountain-splitting axe. Although he was knocked down by Duke in three moves, he was still shouting in dissatisfaction.
If it were an ordinary person, he would have died in the hands of the three men, but he was clearly no match for Duke. He held the black spear in one hand and faced the attack of the three men with a relaxed look on his face. When Xin Huan took the opportunity to rescue Deng Zhong, he just pretended not to see it.
Duke was very respectful and jumped off the Garurumon: "Grandmaster, you are too kind. Although I am a man from the mountains, I know that deceiving the emperor and treason is an unforgivable crime. Ji Fa proclaimed himself king, and with Jiang Ziya as his accomplice, Xiqi ignited the flames of war and wanted to make the people of the world suffer. How can I stand by and watch?"
Wen Zhong was furious. This Taoist was so arrogant. He was the commander-in-chief of the three armies. How could he easily leave? He ordered a general to go and ask. But after a while, the vanguard officer reported again that the two sides had a disagreement. The general who went out to fight was defeated and repelled.
In an instant, the sky darkened, sand and rocks flew, dust rose, and the hurricane swept the sand and gravel in front of it, leaving no grass. Tao Rong, sweating profusely, put away the wind-gathering flag and waited for the wind to stop, but found that Duke was safe and sound, and even the corners of his clothes were not blown.
"I am Wen Zhong!"
The soldiers were angry at the Taoist for being ungrateful, and another general rode on horseback to scold him, but they were all knocked down by the Taoist.
The four were shocked and knew they were no match for Duke, but they did not dare to retreat because they had military orders.
When Duke arrived in Chaoge, Fei Zhong and You Hun had already died. Grand Tutor Wen Zhong led 300,000 troops to Xiqi and was riding on the black unicorn on his way.
Wen Zhong's magical powers were insignificant in Duke's eyes, but his dedication to protecting the foundation of the Shang Dynasty and his integrity, which made him never regret his death, were enough to make Duke look at him with admiration.
Duke also cupped his hands and said, "I am Duke, a casual cultivator from Qi Jue Mountain. But is it Grand Master Wen Zhong who is here in person?"
One day, the army was marching in formation over a hill. They were cooking when suddenly there was a commotion and noise from the front. A vanguard officer reported that a Taoist priest riding a strange beast was outside the camp and wanted to see him. The soldiers wanted to invite him in, but the Taoist priest said that Wen Zhong should go to the camp to invite him in person.
Wen Zhong is a third-generation disciple of Jiejiao. Like Yang Jian, he has three eyes on his head and holds a pair of whips. He is a veteran of the three dynasties of the Shang Dynasty. He is upright and has great prestige. He is loyal to the king and country. He has a golden whip given by the previous king to beat the tyrant king and the treacherous ministers. King Zhou respects and fears him, and is like a 200-jin quail in front of him.
Wen Zhong's face changed. They were about to reach Xiqi, but something like this happened. It would definitely affect the morale of the army. The four Heavenly Lords of Huanghua Mountain had just joined Wen Zhong and were in need of an opportunity to make achievements. Deng Zhong, the leader of the four, took the initiative to volunteer and rode out of the army.
Wen Zhong was overjoyed when he heard this. Without thinking too much, he dismounted the Black Kirin and came to Duke’s front: “Fellow Daoist, you are very righteous and have great skills. With your help, we will surely be able to conquer Xiqi.”
Duke had two options. One was to recommend himself to the palace to meet King Zhou and Daji, seek an official position, and wait for King Wu to defeat King Zhou. During this time, there might even be a sex scene between Black Hawk and Fox. The other was to go directly to Master Wen. Xiqi had sufficient troops and horses, and had the supreme magical power of calling for help when they couldn't win. Wen Zhong was in need of people at that time, and if he showed a little bit of his skills, Wen Zhong would treat him as a guest of honor.
Wen Zhong saw that Duke's martial arts and Taoist skills were extraordinary, so he wanted to recruit him. He rode the black unicorn forward, bowed and asked, "Fellow Taoist, you are very capable. I don't know where you practiced. Why are you blocking the way of my army?"
Duke looked him up and down and nodded secretly. He was indeed a pillar of the country and his aura was extraordinary.
Duke glanced at the imperial city filled with evil spirit and thought to himself that it was worthy of being a nine-tailed fox, and was indeed very coquettish. He shook his head and went to look for Wen Zhong.
"This time period is neither too late nor too late..."
Deng Zhong shouted loudly upon seeing this, and the four brothers retreated together. Tao Rong put his double maces behind his back, took out the wind-gathering banner, and swung it at Duke forty-nine times in a row.
The three surrounded Duke and started a chaotic fight. They had been brothers for many years, and the fight seemed to be without any rules, but in fact they cooperated with each other. Zhang Jie was the strongest in martial arts, and he faced Duke directly with a spear, while Tao Rong supported him with his double maces, and Xin Huan attacked from high altitude.
In the common saying, "literature is enough to stabilize the country, and martial arts is enough to rule the country", the "wen" refers to Wen Zhong.
After being rescued, Deng Zhong picked up the axe on the ground and joined the battle with a roar. Duke fought four people alone and easily killed them, making them tremble with fear and their arms numb.
Wen Zhong was even more delighted after hearing this. When he saw that Duke did not kill him, he knew he was definitely not an enemy. Now he was even more certain, so he immediately invited Duke into the camp.
The four Heavenly Lords of Huanghua Mountain looked at each other, shook their heads and followed him back to the camp. They were defeated generals, and their abilities were inferior to others. What else could they say?
