A National Guardian Nascent Soul who practiced witchcraft even erged.
Yet, our family’s Sword Dao heritage was almost cut off. What’s more embarrassing is that to regain the Sword Dao, we have to search for our ancestors’ heritage in those independent Sword Sects.
It’s sowhat like a Reversed Heavenly Gang.
Thus, after the young master ascended the throne in Chen Kingdom, undercurrents surged as outsiders of the court intended to expel the Barbarian Tribe’s influence, whereas the officials in the court aid to directly submit to the Barbarian Tribe.
The alliance spearheaded by the Xiao Family aid to unite the forces outside the court who didn’t want to be subjected to the Barbarian Race.
These people secretly and gradually moved most of their families and properties away. Sect Leader Chen of the Feiyu Sword Sect even took his family along with him.
Although it was called an alliance, many saw it as more of an independent journey seeking the Celestial Sect’s protection, unwilling to be barbarized.
So when they arrived in White Jade County and found stability, they began to feel safer, yet many beca restless again.
They started vying for power in the tiny White Jade County.
Lu Chen, likely out of annoyance, snuck here disguised as a child to tornt Zhang Ze.
And Zhang Ze was helpless against Lu Chen, not because of cultivation but because she faced him with a six-year-old’s face...
A centenarian with a six-year-old’s face acting coy towards you...
Zhang Ze wasn’t a pervert, so he couldn’t endure it.
"Just say it, say it, before I get annoyed to death by their antics."
Seeing Zhang Ze still silent, Lu Chen started behaving like a real little girl, acting spoiled.
Zhang Ze shivered with discomfort, reluctantly putting away his book to offer Lu Chen advice.
"If you don’t want to manage, just hand everything over to Xiao Mountain, the Patriarch of the Xiao Family.
"He is capable, skilled in strategic manipulation, and also holds prestige, making him the best choice to negotiate with the various forces.
"He hasn’t ntioned this matter over the past few days, probably because of you. Although the plan was jointly devised, you were overly domineering during that day on White Mount, seemingly inclined to monopolize power.
"Patriarch Xiao was unsure of your intentions, fearing to offend you, hence didn’t dare to overstep.
"After all, you are the core of this alliance. If you opt out, all the planning would be a futile effort."
After Zhang Ze finished speaking, he put his hands together and pleaded, "Sect Leader, are you satisfied now? If you’re really bored, just go play with Wang Siwen from the Wolf King’s family, okay? She’s much smarter than that fool Chen Xing..."
However, the Sect Leader seed unsatisfied. To her, two genuine little brats were obviously not as interesting as Zhang Ze.
"And then? You said yourself, we can’t remain in White Jade County farming our whole lives. What then?"
Lu Chen mumbled while sucking on a candy, her question slightly garbled.
Seeing no way to dodge this persistent problem, Zhang Ze sighed and continued.
"Although blood was shed at the battle on White Mount, it was ultimately due to unforeseen circumstances. To genuinely unite them as one, and to direct their focus towards this world, it requires an opportunity.
"An opportunity based on their interests, an irresistible temptation. Change the command from you giving it, to them needing it.
"I don’t know what your original plan with Patriarch Xiao was, but if you’re asking now, I’d target our northern Liang Song.
"The Human Emperor Banner is that opportunity.
"Now the world believes that the Human Emperor Banner is in control of the Liang Song royal family. Regardless of its truth, we must ensure it appears real.
"Let the fire ignite in Liang Song too, make Liang Song the center of another vortex.
"Liang Song, Southern Chen, South Korea all embroiled in chaos, with all three sides preoccupied. Only then will there be space for us to maneuver."
After finishing, Zhang Ze looked at Lu Chen, "Are you satisfied now?"
"Hehe, as expected of soone chosen by this wicked woman, truly aligning with my thoughts. County Magistrate Zhang is indeed a cunning strategist," Lu Chen giggled.
Facing Lu Chen’s words, unsure whether they were insincere praise or genuine flattery, Zhang Ze didn’t respond, just gave a cupped fist salute to Lu Chen, then turned and left.
Lu Chen watched as Zhang Ze walked away without a backward glance. She smacked her lips, wondering if she had misspoken.
She did have a plan regarding the Human Emperor Banner. She had co to discuss it with Zhang Ze, but judging from the current situation, there seems to be no conversation happening.
But for the illustrious Sect Leader to apologize, she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
"Forget it, I’ll talk about it tomorrow." Lu Chen jumped off the chair and was about to leave when she suddenly saw a little black mongrel strangely stuck at the doorstep, its little legs flailing and whimpering.
This Golden Core master’s residence housed many puppies, running around wildly all day, totally unsupervised.
Because Zhang Ze also liked dogs, upon finding out, he just let these little creatures be.
Lu Chen found this puppy’s appearance endearingly cute, feeling an odd kinship with it. She looked around and seeing no one was watching, picked up the puppy, turned into a flash of light, and left the estate.
Gone.
...
After leaving, Zhang Ze didn’t head elsewhere but intended to find Little Earth Immortal to play for a while.
Because he felt sothing was off with his condition, unsure if it was due to that diary or the overly real Illusion Realm, Zhang Ze found himself sowhat captivated.
It seed as if he naturally belonged to this era...
Moreover, he had a feeling that he might need to stay here for quite so ti...
