Chapter 851: Mountain Axe
Although she herself is unaware of it, the Immortal Fairy has actually already become a prominent figure in the Imperial City, and all forces are paying attention to Lu Yang's every move.
The second prince and the fifth prince were particularly concerned about Lu Yang's movements.
They knew that the remnants of the Fourth Prince would definitely take action against Lu Yang. This was the price of going against the prince.
Although they are in competition with the Fourth Prince, it is still an internal matter of the royal family after all, and it is not right for an outsider like Lu Yang to interfere.
And they used such a dirty method as reporting.
The price must be paid in blood! But after waiting for a long time, what they saw was the remnants of the Fourth Prince disappearing silently, without even a corpse left, only several large pits formed when they knelt on the ground.
"Tribulation Crossing Stage! There is more than one Tribulation Crossing Stage person around Lu Yang!" They made the judgment at the same time. If there was one person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage taking action, it would not have been possible to handle it so cleanly!
"No wonder Lu Yang is always so fearless. I thought he had the support of the Daoist Sect, but I didn't expect that there is someone in the Tribulation Crossing Stage beside him!"
The two were shocked and confused. The more they came into contact with Lu Yang, the more terrifying they felt that Lu Yang was and his strength was unfathomable!
But no one knows that the once glorious Lu Yang had actually been possessed by an ancient immortal a long time ago. Now Lu Yang is just a puppet played around by the ancient immortal. How sad and lamentable it is.
Back at the Meng Mansion, since the Meng family was surrounded by enemies, it was impossible for outsiders to enter the Meng Mansion. However, Meng Potian was optimistic about Lu Yang's future and gave Lu Yang the same rights in the Meng family as Meng Jingzhou.
That is, all rights except the right of inheritance, including the right to bring outsiders in.
Especially when Meng Potian heard that Lu Yang had used the Ministry of Justice to get rid of the Fourth Prince, he felt more and more that Lu Yang had a connection with their Meng family.
"Brother Lu Yang, you're back?" Meng Jingyu ran over excitedly when he saw Lu Yang coming back.
"Who is this brother?" Meng Jingyu looked at Xia Tian behind Lu Yang curiously.
When Emperor Xia heard Meng Jingyu calling him brother, his face twitched.
He knew Meng Jingyu, and he even went to Meng Jingyu's 100-day banquet in person.
The mother of Meng Jingzhou and his sister is Emperor Xia’s eldest sister, the eldest princess. In terms of seniority, Meng Jingzhou and his sister are his nephews and nephews.
"His name is Xia Tian. Although his cultivation is not that good, he has a good brain. Now he follows me." The Immortal Fairy spoke in the tone of a copycat king, which sounded inexplicably powerful to Meng Jingyu.
Meng Jingyu blinked and called out in a coquettish voice, "Hello, Brother Xia."
Emperor Xia began to regret it now. How could he have forgotten that following Lu Yang would certainly broaden his horizons, but Lu Yang had such a good relationship with Meng Jingzhou, so he must have often come into contact with the Meng family.
What should I do? I have just entered the Meng family and I am already a generation short.
Meng Jingyu had no interest in Xia Tian, so he took Lu Yang's hand and ran to the study.
"Brother Lu Yang, the teacher gave me a homework assignment about ancient history. Can you teach me? I often praise you for your excellent knowledge of ancient history."
The Meng family emphasizes the all-round development of their children, which also includes history.
When the Immortal Fairy heard this, she agreed immediately.
"It's a small matter."
When it comes to ancient history, who can be as familiar with it as she is?
…
Meng Jingyu is a serious and studious child. There are neatly arranged books in his study. The book covers are a little dirty, which is obviously the result of frequent reading. This is completely different from the Immortal Fairy who just throws books in the study to collect dust.
"How do I answer this question? There was an ancient immortal who refined a mountain-splitting axe. What was the reason for refining it?"
If the real Lu Yang was here, he would tactfully tell Meng Jingyu that there was nothing good to study in ancient history and that it was better to study modern and contemporary history.
But now Lu Yang has been possessed by another body, and the Immortal Fairy will only tell the truth.
"If you want to ask about this, then I have something to tell you..."
…
The next day, the private school teacher glanced coldly at the restless young man of the Meng family. He was famous for his bad temper, stubbornness, and fearlessness of no one.
"The homework assigned yesterday was indeed a bit difficult, especially the one about the origin of the axe."
"As everyone knows, the Mountain-Splitting Axe is an ancient magic weapon. Although its power is far inferior to the immortal weapon Heaven-Splitting Axe, its popularity is no less than that of the Heaven-Splitting Axe."
The Mountain-Splitting Axe and the Heaven-Splitting Axe are both very famous. When He Ling first took the test to join the Taoist Sect, he took out an ordinary axe, a Mountain-Splitting Axe, and a Heaven-Splitting Axe from the river.
"There is no clear record in any ancient book about the origin of the axe, but as long as you carefully study the after-class reading materials I left for you, you can guess the answer."

"The Mountain-Splitting Axe was made by the ancient immortal Ying Tianxian before he became an immortal."
"According to records, the ancients were trapped in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. It was difficult for them to travel and make contact with the outside world. Ying Tianxian refined an axe to split the mountains and open up a road. The ancients respectfully called this axe the Mountain-Splitting Axe."
The teacher's voice became colder and colder: "But look at you all, you all handed in blank papers. Of course, there are some who didn't hand in blank papers, such as Meng Jingyu. Come on, tell me what you wrote!"
Meng Jingyu openly talked about the story the Immortal Fairy told him yesterday: "In ancient times, Yingtian Fairy was poor and destitute. In order to make a living, he dug up the mountains and collected tolls. He placed his axe across the middle of the road. When passing by, he would say, 'I dug this mountain and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, leave some money.' Only after paying the money would Yingtian Fairy lift up his axe and let you pass."
"Ancient people called this axe a mountain-splitting axe."
"Did you learn this from reading books?" The gentleman looked strange. Which pirated book was misleading these students?
"Brother Lu Yang told me this, it must be true." Meng Jingyu has full trust in Lu Yang.
"Lu Yang? Call him over here, I want to argue with him!" The gentleman naturally knew Lu Yang's name, but Lu Yang was known as a genius in cultivation, not a historical genius. He has been painstakingly studying ancient history for so many years, so how could he be afraid of Lu Yang when it comes to ancient history.
Meng Jingyu quickly invited the Immortal Fairy over.
"Brother Lu Yang, the teacher said that what you said yesterday was wrong."
"Ah, what's wrong?" Immortal Fairy wondered, did she remember it wrong? This shouldn't be the case, the incision was all hers for Ying Tianxian.
The gentleman repeated the standard answer, which is also the answer generally recognized by the academic community.
"Isn't this similar to what I said?"
The gentleman was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "It's far from it. The Ying Tianxian you mentioned is a bandit who robbed people on the road!"
The Immortal Fairy asked confidently, "How did you become a bandit? Ying Tianxian worked hard to dig a passage through the mountain with an axe, and cultivated the Tree Planting Technique to plant trees. Shouldn't it be right to charge some money?"
"It is impossible for the Immortal Yingtian to say that I opened this mountain!" The gentleman felt that this was simply slandering the image of the ancient immortals!
The Immortal Fairy was even more puzzled: "If you don't say so, how will others know that this mountain is opened by you, and how will they be willing to pay the fee?"
