Chapter 1360: Chapter 669: Shu Central Alliance Hierarch! (Part 2)
Rather than letting Li Hongshuang get entangled, it would be better to deceive her to co to the Southern region first.
As for whether she will co, Chen Yuan is uncertain, but won who are head over heels in love usually comply; of course, this also depends on Jiang He’s decision.
After all, this is his personal matter, and Chen Yuan will not interfere too much.
Anyway, he has already sent a letter to the Capital, secretly informing Zhang Wanshu to co to Shuzhou, preferably with so family mbers. He didn’t make it explicit, but he reckons she can understand.
Zhang Yantong is currently still outside quelling the rebellion, not in the Capital, which is a good opportunity. Once the chaos begins, Zhang Yantong will understand the matters within.
He is on very good terms with Chen Yuan, having promoted him several tis, and even promised his daughter to Chen Yuan. If Jingtai finds out, how could he tolerate him?
Rather than letting him be in a difficult position, occurring under Jingtai’s nose, it would be better to withdraw in ti.
“I understand.”
Jiang He nodded, his gaze looking towards the North, still rembering his previous promise to personally take her from the Capital, it’s just… it’s too dangerous.
If possible, he also didn’t want Chen Yuan to accompany him in such risk.
Now, Chen Yuan is not a lonely man; he carries heavy responsibilities with countless people under his command. If sothing goes wrong, the plans of the Taoist Divine Palace would be ruined.
He believes in Chen Yuan’s promise but doesn’t wish for unnecessary risk.
“Alright, since the preparations in Shu Central are ready, I won’t stay much longer in Shuzhou. Please convey my farewell to Sect Leader Ling Xu.” Chen Yuan stood up and said.
“Alright.”
…
…
Shu Central, Shangguan Clan.
Having left Shushan, Chen Yuan traveled swiftly. Within less than half a day, he left Shu East and reached the territory of Shu Central. With his current abilities, such speed was normal.
And if he were to travel with all his might, he would be even faster.
Chen Yuan is no stranger to the various prefectures of Shu Central; he has been here many tis, with the most morable being the ti with Tang Xianzhuo.
After all, in that battle, Tang Xianzhuo helped Chen Yuan deal with many core forces.
As one of the Five Great Families, the Shangguan Clan, though not as impressively powerful as the Gu Family with True Monarchs in its ranks, stands out among many top forces.
It indeed has so real capabilities.
Although not outstanding individuals, the overall strength of the clansn is strong, and under the leadership of Shangguan Tiehong, the cohesion is very strong, which is one of the reasons Chen Yuan values it.
To support Chen Yuan, Shangguan Tiehong didn’t even need Chen Yuan to say much. After receiving a letter from Shangguan Hong, he proactively delivered more than half of his family’s assets to Tangshan to support military expansion.
The sa goes for Liu Zhenzong of the Four Symbols Divine Arrow. Having decided to revive the Liu family, he didn’t hesitate, directly providing most of his family’s assets to Chen Yuan.
The Liu family, whose legacy surpasses even the Shangguan Clan, though seen by outsiders as declining for many years, were rely hiding their strength, as what the Liu family offered was no less than the Shangguan Clan.
Liu Zhenzong candidly stated that the clan still has an old ancestor, although nearing the end of his lifespan, in crucial monts, can still unleash his strength.
This ancestor from over a hundred years ago had earned quite a reputation but, due to severe injuries, has not appeared since.
Even in perilous tis for the Liu family, he remained dormant.
People say he has fallen, but he is rely in a death-like slumber.
The Shangguan Clan’s location is vast, occupying an entire small mountain range, which is also considered private property, with many Spiritual dicines planted, serving as the most important foundation of the Shangguan Clan.
It’s called: Qianyang Mountain.
When Chen Yuan went to Shushan previously, he had already visited it once. This ti, being familiar with the route, he didn’t notify anyone and directly infiltrated the Shangguan Clan’s premises.
In the discussion hall.
Clan Leader Shangguan Tiehong sat at the main seat, the current Clan Leader of the Liu family, Liu Zhenzong, sat to the left, and there were also four or five elders of the Shangguan Clan.
These also represent the strongest force of the Shangguan Clan, with the ‘good brother’ Shangguan Yu among them.
“Clan Leader, tomorrow is the Shu Central assembly; is the Marquis of Wuan already…” An elder of the Shangguan Clan asked with a worried face.
Tomorrow is the day to truly establish the status of the Shangguan Clan, and without such a strong figure as the Marquis of Wuan, they wouldn’t be able to intimidate the various powers of Shu Central.
If they don’t co up with a candidate for Alliance Hierarch, they will be passive, even if Chen Yuan could later kill the Alliance Hierarch, it would cause a significant blow to the morale of the Shu Central Alliance.
As he spoke, the others also looked at the position at the top.
Shangguan Tiehong smiled faintly, appearing calm and composed, and said:
“Rest assured, everyone, this matter has been inford to the Marquis. He absolutely won’t be absent tomorrow, so you all should prepare for securing those forces.”
“That’s good.”
“Good…”
Listening to Shangguan Tiehong’s confident words, everyone felt relieved.
Most of them are not too aware of Chen Yuan’s identity as the Qilin Demon True Monarch of the Taoist Divine Palace, but Shangguan Tiehong has subtly hinted at the presence of a True Monarch backing them.
This has led the Shangguan Clan to form a consensus.
In this unpredictable world, having a pinnacle figure of the True Monarch level is indeed necessary. The Shangguan Clan alone cannot ensure stability.
While they were discussing the matters of the next day, a cold wind suddenly blew through the tightly closed hall, causing everyone to instinctively turn their heads to look.
