Ming Dynasty Emperor System

Chapter 328 Meeting Yang Jian

In a blink of an eye, another half a year passed.

Zhu Houzhao, who firmly remembered the date of Yang Jian's return, had finished today's meditation practice and went to wait at the entrance of Erlang Temple.

Upon seeing this, Zhao Yuan, the grass-headed god, quickly dispersed the people of Guanjiangkou who came to worship, leaving an open space for Zhu Houzhao, who also slept quietly at the door with peace of mind.

The sun was three high, and as it was approaching noon, a majestic and powerful aura finally came from the horizon.

Zhu Houzhao opened his eyes and saw Yang Jian riding his Yinhe horse, holding a three-pointed two-edged sword and flying lightly from the sky to the ground.

At the same time, the Six Friends of Meishan followed closely behind, guarding Yang Jian.

They are Meishan's fourth Taiwei Kang Anyu, Zhang Boshi, Li Huanzhang, Yao Gonglin and Meishan's second generals Zhijian and Guo Shen.

Zhang Boshi and Guo Shen had an unpleasant encounter with Zhu Houzhao half a year ago.

When they saw Zhu Houzhao at this moment, they unconsciously showed a look of worry and fear on their faces, and their eyes flickered, as if they were afraid that Zhu Houzhao would complain in front of Yang Jian.

Zhu Houzhao naturally didn't have that spare time. Zhang Boshi and Guo Shen were just minions in his eyes. Now that the matter had been revealed, let them go as the wind went. He wouldn't care about these trivial matters.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes were still firmly fixed on Yang Jian. They hadn't seen each other for more than a year, but he clearly noticed that Yang Jian had broken through to the realm of Daluo True Immortal!

Moreover, Yang Jian did not wear his iconic eight-clawed dragon-patterned yellow robe today. Instead, he wore a suit of black armor and a sword with a dazzling golden light slung around his waist.

There was still a lot of undried blood on the armor. Judging from the color of the blood, it was clear that it was not Yang Jian's. It seemed that Yang Jian had just experienced a fierce battle.

The golden sword revealed a powerful aura second only to the Xuanyuan Sword. Zhu Houzhao's eyes stayed on the golden sword for the longest time.

"Yang Jian, you have really undergone earth-shaking changes the last time you came to the country to say goodbye. First of all, congratulations to you for successfully entering the realm of Daluo True Immortal!" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile.

"Who am I? It turns out to be you, Zhu Houzhao. What are you doing here at the mouth of Guanjiang River? There is no room for a great god like you here."

Yang Jian's expression was as cold as ever.

Apparently that day, Taibai Jinxing sent Yang Jian away and then chatted alone with Zhu Houzhao, which made Yang Jian feel a little unhappy.

"That's wrong. I've been here waiting for the True Lord for a full year to plan great things for the True Lord."

"Huh? Seriously?"

Yang Jian glanced at the grass-headed god Zhao Yuan, who hurriedly knelt on the ground and replied:

"It's true! The Immortal came here a year ago to look for you, the True Lord. After I explained it to the Immortal, he also offered to wait here for your return. As of today, the Immortal lives at the mouth of the Guanjiang River. It is true that It’s been a year!”

When Yang Jian heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. He waved to the six friends of Meishan and said, "You go back to patrol. I have important matters to discuss with this fellow Taoist. Zhao Yuan, you stay outside the door and don't let anyone in." Come in."

"Yes!" Zhao Yuan, the grass-headed god, promised.

"Let's go and talk inside." Yang Jian said in a deep voice.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and nodded, turned around and entered the Erlang Temple first, found a futon, and sat down casually.

Yang Jian didn't even need a futon. He just used his magic power to clear a clean area. Then he sat down carelessly, taking off his armor and asked:

"What are you doing this time, about Heavenly Court? Or... the person behind Heavenly Court?"

"Both. But let's not talk about this in a hurry. Let's talk about you first. How come your realm has soared to this point in just one year?"

With a "bang", Yang Jian's black light armor was taken off. He moved his hands and feet, grabbed the golden sword at his waist, and threw it to Zhu Houzhao casually.

Zhu Houzhao caught it and stroked the ancient inscriptions on it. He realized something and said, "This sword...is the sword of the man who lives in Jinxia Cave in Yuquan Mountain, right?"

"Yes, this mission is too dangerous, so my master, Master Yuding, gave me his Immortal Killing Sword." Yang Jian replied calmly,

"It was because of the power of the incense that you were promoted to the Great Luo True Immortal?"

"How is it possible? With just the power of the incense on the Immortal Slayer Sword, I can only improve my cultivation. What really made me break through was this trip to Xiniu Hezhou."

Yang Jian's eyes burst with light, he raised his hand, slowly clenched his fists, closed his eyes and felt the powerful power of Daluo True Immortal level, and said in a deep voice:

"The Jade Emperor used my master's oral instructions to force me to go to Xiniu Hezhou and go to the Great Leiyin Temple in Lingshan to confront the Tathagata."

"After transmitting my master's oral instructions to the Tathagata, all the Buddhas and Arhats immediately became furious and came together to kill me in the Buddha Hall!"

Zhu Houzhao returned the immortal-killing sword to Yang Jian, and then asked: "What instructions did Yuanshi Tianzun give to Tathagata? How did he make the Buddhas furious and attack you regardless of the majesty of heaven?"

"Oh, he said... he wanted to set up a Taoist temple in Hezhou, Xiniu! He also asked all the Buddhas and Tathagatas to move to Dongsheng Shenzhou and be guests on the Kunlun Mountains to discuss Buddhism and Tao together." Yang Jian sneered.

"What does Yuanshi Tianzun mean by this move? Isn't it clear that he wants to destroy the foundation of Buddhism? What benefits does this do to him?" Zhu Houzhao asked confused.

"I don't know either. I just can vaguely feel that my master is setting up a big picture, which involves too many things. I am just sent for this trip to show my attitude and let the Buddhas in the Western Heavens be mentally prepared. .”

"Then..." After Zhu Houzhao pondered for a while, he looked at Yang Jian with burning eyes and asked: "What does the Buddhas chasing you have to do with your breakthrough to the realm?"

"Of course it does matter. If I hadn't been forced by them, I wouldn't have gone to Lingtai Fangcun Mountain where my master once lived to find the supreme treasure he left behind!"

Yang Jian laughed loudly, but suddenly stood up, and a chaotic aura erupted from his body!Then he asked loudly:

"Zhu Houzhao! Do you know what kind of divine thing is coming out of my body?"

Zhu Houzhao's eyes became extremely deep.

How could he not know that this thing is inextricably related to the thing he wants to plan to break through the restrictions in his huge plan!

"Chaos True Essence...the best of acquired Qi! It's amazing, where did Master Yuanding get this thing and bury it on Fangcun Mountain of Lingtai?" Zhu Houzhao asked slowly.

"Know the goods! As for where this thing comes from, you have to ask my master." Yang Jian laughed, and then continued:

"Okay, I have answered your question. Now, let me explain my question. What is the big thing you are talking about?"
