Chapter 86 - Chapter 86 The Coming War of Expansion

A month later, the cold wave is coming.

Zhao Sheng was in an extremely irritable mood, and just when he could no longer bear it, he was about to set off to return to Taiwu Mountain.

Zhao Keru unexpectedly returned to the secret residence alone.

Zhao Sheng flew over from under the peach tree and asked curiously, "Why didn't Jing'er come back?"

Zhao Keru wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied, "Chonghe, not only will Xuan Jing not come back this time, you also have to go back to Taiwu Mountain with me immediately."

Zhao Sheng's heart suddenly trembled, and he immediately asked, "Uncle Ru, is there something wrong at home?"

Zhao Keru was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, everything is fine at home! But there is an important matter waiting for you to go back and discuss it."

Hearing that nothing happened at home, Zhao Sheng felt relieved and said with a smile: "What's going on at home that requires me to go back and make a decision? Could it be that Jing'er is getting married?"

"Don't joke. If Xuan Jing, that blockhead, had half the intelligence of Xuan An, I wouldn't have to worry about his marriage!" Zhao Keru waved his hands repeatedly.

When talking about his son, Zhao Keru looked helpless.

After chatting casually, his expression suddenly became serious, and he said in a deep voice: "What I am talking about has nothing to do with Xuan Jing, but it concerns the fortune of our family for the next few hundred years."

Another few hundred years of luck? !

Upon hearing this, Zhao Sheng was shocked, and a strange thought subconsciously emerged in his mind, "Is the word 'luck' almost overused?"

Putting aside this ridiculous thought, Zhao Sheng's expression suddenly became serious.

Without him asking, Zhao Keru said, "You were here in Tianzhu Mountain and didn't know that there was a Jindan Zhenren in the Danding Sect who had successfully completed his cultivation and ascended to the Yuanying realm."

After hearing this, Zhao Sheng was first shocked and then delighted.

The fact that Zhao Keru is still willing to keep the secret at this moment shows that this matter is a blessing rather than a curse for the Zhao family.

I just don't know what the relationship is between the family and the newly promoted Nascent Soul ancestor?

Could it be that the one from the Ge family finally succeeded in taking this step?

Zhao Sheng was secretly delighted when he thought that the Ge family also had a Golden Elixir Great Perfection.

"Uncle Ru, is it the one from the Ge family who advanced?"

"no!"

Zhao Sheng felt disappointed when he heard this.

At this time, Zhao Keru said proudly: "But it's almost the same. The one who was promoted to the Yuanying Patriarch was the Taoist partner of the Ge family's Jinzhi Zhenren."

Zhao Sheng subconsciously asked, "Master Yuye?"

"Yes, it's this person." Zhao Keru nodded and smiled.

Zhao Sheng was overjoyed when he saw this.

You should know that the Jinzhiyuye couple are not only famous in the Danding Sect, but also well-known in the entire Tianzhu Realm.

Back then, True Person Yuye was a casual cultivator, while True Person Jinzhi was the eldest daughter of the Ge family.

The identities of the two people are obviously different, but Jinzhi Zhenren has a keen eye for people and took a liking to Yuye Zhenren, who has not yet revealed her potential.

It was a great shame and humiliation for the Ge family that their eldest daughter fell in love with a down-and-out cultivator.

Back then, the Ge family repeatedly suppressed and harassed Master Yuye, repeatedly trying to break up the Taoist couple.

However, the world is unpredictable and fate is unpredictable.

The more the Ge family tried to separate the two, the more steadfast the feelings of this famous Taoist couple became.

What's more, not only did Master Yuye not become decadent under the suppression of the Ge family, but his cultivation level improved by leaps and bounds, and he had many adventures one after another. He successfully advanced to the Golden Core stage at the age of only 130.

At this point, the Ge family had no choice but to bow their heads and acknowledge Yuye Zhenren as their son-in-law.

At this point, the reputation of the two men, whose friendship was stronger than gold, spread throughout southern Xinjiang.

Over the past hundred years, as the two real people, Jinzhiyuye, both advanced to the late Jindan stage, their story has become a much-talked-about anecdote in the world of immortal cultivation.

After confirming the news, Zhao Sheng couldn't help but sigh, "Master Yuye is truly a role model for our generation. With such courage and diligence, he is truly a rarity among casual cultivators."

Zhao Keru next to him also nodded repeatedly with a sense of understanding.

After sighing, Zhao Sheng restrained his expression and asked calmly, "What does Yuye Zhenren's advancement to the Nascent Soul stage have to do with the family's affairs?"

"It's a big deal. Our family has been relocated to southern Xinjiang for so many years. Don't tell me you haven't heard of the pioneer war?"

Pioneer War?!

Hearing this word, Zhao Sheng was shocked, and then he suddenly realized it.

"Uncle Ru, does Yuye Zhen... no, does Patriarch Yuye really have such lofty ambitions to open up new territories in the southern border wilderness? Will he choose the Hundred Thousand Mountains or the Endless Jungle?"

Zhao Keru said, "Which territory the Jade Leaf Patriarch will choose is unknown, but it's likely to be towards the Hundred Thousand Mountains. After all, the Endless Jungle is the territory of the Beast Taming Sect."

Although Zhao Sheng had countless questions in his mind, he did not ask any more questions. Instead, he said with a serious expression, "There is no time to lose. Let's go back immediately."

"Wait a moment, I still have something to do." Zhao Keru said hurriedly when he saw this.

"What is it?"

"Two things. One is that I want to pick some spiritual herbs this time. The other is to bring Xiao Jin back to Taiwu Mountain."

Zhao Sheng frowned after hearing this.

It is understandable that they pick spiritual herbs. The Zhao family will have to participate in the pioneering war, which will cost a lot of money. It is also understandable that they use spiritual herbs to exchange for spiritual stones, elixirs and other resources.

However, Xiao Jin is a huge hidden danger. If he is accidentally exposed after being brought back to Taiwu Mountain, it will be a disaster for the Zhao family.

In the past few years, he only dared to secretly take some spiritual soil back, but he did not dare to take away a golden ring spiritual earthworm. This was because he was afraid of accidentally revealing his identity and letting someone with ulterior motives find out the flaw.

"Uncle Ru, it was Xuan Jing who asked you to take Xiao Jin back, right? Doesn't he know that it is very dangerous to do so?" Zhao Sheng questioned.

Zhao Keru scratched his hand and said honestly, "I also tried to persuade Jing'er. But he insisted on doing so. He also said that Xiao Jin would be of great use in this pioneering war."

Zhao Sheng pondered for a moment after hearing this, then nodded decisively and said, "In that case, let's do as Xuan Jing wishes."

Zhao Sheng watched Zhao Xuanjing grow up and knew his character very well. Since he was so persistent, he must have his reasons.

After all, Xuan Jing is not the kind of person who speaks nonsense and deceives the world.

Two hours later, after they had packed up, they immediately set out on their journey home.

To make a long story short, nothing to say is enough!

Seven days later, two streaks of light came rushing from the horizon. When they flew over Taiwu Mountain, they fell like meteors and landed in the bluestone courtyard on the top of the mountain in the blink of an eye.

Half a month later, a small building on the mountainside.

In the courtyard of the small building, Zhao Sheng stood in front of a wall with a calm expression, his eyes fixed on it.

At this time, the wall was densely covered with notes.

The note contained the information that the Zhao family had recently collected.

From small things like the recent changes in prices of talismans, elixirs and other materials on the market to big things like internal transfers within the Danding Sect, all aspects are involved.

Although the Zhao family's strength is limited, most of the intelligence collected is irrelevant information, and there is very little important information.

After summarizing all the information, Zhao Sheng suddenly realized that the peaceful southern Xinjiang was about to be in turmoil due to the war of expansion.
