Even Manjushri Bodhisattva's Dharma body was shattered. Yaoxin didn't think he could resist anymore. If he couldn't defeat him, he couldn't defeat him. There was no shame in it. After he died, the cause and effect was settled.
If we talk about regret, we can only regret that Fahai was distracted and provoked such a terrifying Chen Yuan.
No one can blame the others.
Manjusri Bodhisattva left, and the only person present who could stop Chen Yuan was the Dragon Subduing Arhat. However, he was a heretic and had betrayed Lingshan before. He had just taken the initiative to help Chen Yuan and was not the same person as him.
Therefore, he will not speak.
The only thing he hoped for was that Guangming Temple would not be implicated. He closed his eyes and whispered:
"Donor Chen, today's fault is all my fault. I hope that Donor Chen will not implicate too many people because of his own personal grudges."
"If you come out to fool around, you have to pay back. Even without you, Chen and Guangming Temple still have cause and effect to settle. You are just an excuse now."
Chen Yuan held the emperor's butcher knife and slashed it out.
There was only a sigh left in the void that lingered for a long time.
A glimmer of green light flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes, as he watched the luck in Yaoxin's body penetrate into him like a swimming dragon, and then be absorbed by the luck altar.
Then, as usual, a new understanding came to my mind.
"The five surnames of the Shangguan clan in Shuzhou are in the clan. The cold pool in the clan nourishes spiritual creatures, the ice marrow and cold jade calm the divine fire, and the spirit swallows the divine blood to transform it into a Lin demon."
Ice marrow jade!
It is indeed the Ice Marrow Divine Jade!
His prediction was not wrong. The opportunity guided by the Luck Altar was indeed guided by his current situation. He currently lacked the ice marrow divine jade to suppress the divine fire of the fire unicorn, so opportunity would give the direction.
The only thing that surprised him was that this opportunity turned out to be within the Shangguan clan. If he had known this, he should have asked in advance.
Maybe there will be new opportunities.
However, no one could have expected this thing. He actually placed his hope on the chance guidance of the Luck Altar, because Moro said that ice marrow jade is rare in the world.
It's not something you can find casually.
Knowing that there were many people around him paying attention to him, after Chen Yuan sensed the opportunity, he opened his eyes without thinking too much, glanced at some of Yao Xin's stumps on the ground, and then turned to look at Xu Yan The monk cupped his fists and said:
"Thank you, Master Xuyan."
If Xuyan hadn't helped him at the most critical moment and shattered Manjushri Bodhisattva's body, he might not have been able to defeat the opponent at that time.
If Moro is unwilling to show up, there is not much hope of killing Yao Xin.
Moro's appearance could easily shatter Manjushri Bodhisattva's body, but the consequences would be too great, which he could hardly bear at the moment.
"It's just a matter of convenience. After all, donor Chen, you and I are old acquaintances." Monk Xuyan smiled lightly, without any intention of taking credit or being arrogant.
"Master Xuyan, why don't you come into the house to talk?" Chen Yuan invited, he actually wanted to win over this person now.
The attack just now was definitely at the level of a true king. Looking at the world, he could be called a strong man. The most important thing is that Chen Yuan also wanted to find out something about himself.
For example, who arranged the false talk in Ping'an County and what was its purpose.
Seemingly seeing Chen Yuan's purpose, Xu Yan shook his head:
"I still have some things to do, so I won't bother you anymore. I'll see you again by fate."
After saying that, without waiting for Chen Yuan to continue to persuade him to stay, he glanced in a certain direction of Shuzhou City, raised a smile at the corner of his mouth, and quickly disappeared into the void.
Looking at the direction where Monk Xuyan disappeared, Chen Yuan frowned and said to Moro in the Emperor's Butcher Knife:
"Senior, since Xuyan yearns for you so much, why don't you show up and meet you?"
He estimated that based on the conversation between Manjusri and Xuyan just now, if Moro came forward, he would most likely be able to win over the fighting power of this true king.
"The poor monk's appearance will not only harm him, but also himself. It's not the right time yet."
Chen Yuan narrowed his eyes and said nothing more. The other party had already left. It was useless to say anything now. The top priority was to get the ice marrow jade from the Shangguan clan and swallow the unicorn blood as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he looked back and his eyes fell on the Shangguan family. He ordered the patrol guards below to deal with these traces and returned to Shuzhou City.
Although this battle has ended, the impact of this battle has just begun, because during this battle, there were too many warriors watching in Shuzhou City!
I don't know how many pairs of eyes witnessed that battle with their own eyes. No one needed to provoke it. After Chen Yuan left, there was a lot of discussion.
On one side is the newly-divided southern border official, the world-famous Marquis of Wu'an, and on the other side is Qingzhou's veteran Yaoxin Arhat. Such a head-on confrontation is inherently debatable.
Coupled with the appearance of Manjushri Bodhisattva, the third best person in the world, and Arhat Subduing the Dragon, no, it is more accurate to say the Bodhisattva Subduing the Dragon, the confrontation between these two True Monarchs of the Yang God is even more thrilling.
The battle of the true king is the focus of everyone's attention no matter where it is, and this time is no exception.
However, what many people focus on is not just this one. What they focus on is that Chen Yuan can actually rely on his own strength to hold a stalemate with Manjushri Bodhisattva, the first of the four great Bodhisattvas in Lingshan!
This is the most shocking thing.
Although Chen Yuan relies on the power of all living beings in the world, isn't this also his method?
Anyone else would not be able to mobilize such power.
The news quickly began to sweep outside like a hurricane, and Chen Yuan, who returned to Shuzhou, ordered someone to quickly summon several people from the Shangguan clan.
Now that we have learned the whereabouts of the Ice Marrow Divine Jade, we naturally have to get it as quickly as possible to feel at ease.
This opportunity is relatively simple, similar to the process when he got the opportunity from Wei Xin when he was in Nanling Mansion. He only hopes that the Shangguan clan can understand.
After being ordered to leave, Chen Yuan sat at the top of the Xantian Hall again and began to routinely summon Cao Nianhua, the golden envoy of Nanzhou, and the two young envoys of Blood State.
"Cao Nianhua, the humble Nanzhou Golden Envoy, has met the Divine Envoy."
"The humble young envoy of Blood State."
"The humble young envoy of Blood State."
The attitude of these people was very respectful and they did not dare to go overboard in the slightest.
They were also lucky enough to observe the battle just now and saw with their own eyes how powerful this divine envoy was. Not to mention being hosted by a top force, even the top Bodhisattva in the world would not give him face.
It's almost as strong as it gets.
Although I didn't dare to look down on him at first, after watching that battle, I became more respectful. I was afraid of offending this gentleman, so I would kill him first and then show off.
"Envoy Cao Jin, envoy Li Qing, please take a seat."
Chen Yuan pointed to the seat below.
"I don't dare to do this in a humble position."
"Humble job."
Several people quickly declined, feeling that they were content to just stand and listen to the instructions.
"I want you to sit down!"
Chen Yuan stared at the three people and said in a deep voice.
The three of them looked at each other and hurriedly said, "I obey." Then, they sat obediently, not even daring to raise their heads. Basically, they responded to Chen Yuan's words.
Chen Yuan was not polite and directly began to ask several people about some things, focusing on the Nanzhou Jinshi. From his mouth, he learned something about Zhennan King Nangong Lie.
It was a little more detailed than what he had investigated before.
This person probably still cares about the imperial court. Although King Zhennan is as powerful as Wei Jinfeng, the king of Northern Liang, they are not fools and know how to save some face for the imperial court.
Anyway, the military and political power is in our hands, so it doesn't matter if we give some insignificant rights.
Cao Nianhua saw that Chen Yuan understood things about Nanzhou in such detail, and he felt that he had a backbone in his heart, and he kept telling his pain and Nangong Lie's strength.
In the past, Miemensi, who had frightened warriors in the martial arts world, could only carry his tail between his legs in Nanzhou, which was quite aggrieved.
When they met for the first time, Chen Yuan just gave him an impression and did not expect to be able to conquer this person, as long as he did not hold him back. Now Shuzhou was not under control, let alone Nanzhou where the situation was more complicated.
After chatting for a while, Chen Yuan asked Cao Nianhua to go down and rest, and began to examine the two Blood State Youth Envoys step by step. They were not important, but their positions were very important.
It is related to the transportation of Yuanjing to Tangshan, so we must be cautious.
Chen Yuan had already known the resumes of these two people. They had relatively little say in Shuzhou and Qingzhou and had no strong backers, otherwise they would not have been sent to the Blood State.
When faced with Chen Yuan's faint olive branch, they understood it in their hearts and hurriedly expressed their allegiance, just short of swearing to express their loyalty.
Chen Yuan revealed some things to them in a vague way, and they all promised to do their best to maintain the safety of the trade route. As for whether they were transporting Yuanjing or some other spiritual object, they did not dare to ask, nor did they want to ask.
Chen Yuan is currently the governor of the three southern states and is a big mountain over the heads of all the officials of the Tianxian Division. They are not qualified to bargain and can only act according to orders.
His plan was actually very simple, which was to use some of the confidants Jiang He had gathered over the years to gradually replace the young envoys in the lower state capitals of Shuzhou. In addition, he would extract some of the officials transferred from the capital and make them swear allegiance to him.
Total allegiance is not advisable. Shuzhou is a vast territory, unlike Tangshan, which is a small corner. Once he controls everything openly, it will definitely reach Jingtai's ears.
lead to unpredictable consequences.
After asking the two young envoys to retreat, those from the Shangguan clan had also arrived at the Tianxuan Division. Some doubts arose in their hearts. The battle had just ended. What did Chen Yuan ask them to do?
Don’t you want to use the Shangguan clan to deal with Guangming Temple?
Shangguan Tiehong's eyes were full of contemplation. After entering the Xantian Hall, he immediately saw Chen Yuan standing up to greet him, and then he slightly cupped his hands:
"Master Hou."
"Master Hou."
"Master Hou."
In formal occasions, neither Shangguan Tiehong nor Shangguan Yu acted like father-in-law and brother-in-law. Especially when Chen Yuan showed his power just now and shattered the body of Manjushri Bodhisattva, the shock in their hearts was no longer just suppressed. That’s all.
"Uncle, brother Shangguan, it's a bit strange to call him this." Chen Yuan smiled faintly, motioned for several people to sit down, and ordered people to serve spiritual tea to drink.
"I wonder why the Marquis suddenly asked us to come here?"
Shangguan Tiehong went straight to the point and didn't sell any details.
The engagement has been made, and even if they are an alliance, they don't need to be as cautious as before. If Chen Yuan can use them for anything, they will naturally not refuse if they can do it.
Hearing this, Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong also looked up at Chen Yuan.
"Since my uncle is straight to the point, my nephew won't hold back. I have asked you to come over today because of one thing. I hope the Shangguan family can help me."
Chen Yuan smiled.
"Master Hou, just speak."
"Chen needs a spiritual object for practice, and according to the information he has found, this spiritual object is now at Shangguan's house. Therefore, whether it is an exchange of equal value or buying it with Yuan Jing, Chen hopes that his uncle can use it to Give it to me."
"The Marquis is out. Since Shangguan's family has this spiritual object, I should give it to the Marquis for his use. I just don't know what kind of spiritual object it is?" Shangguan Tiehong asked in response.
"Ice Marrow Divine Jade."
Chen Yuan opened his mouth and spit out four words.
"Ice Marrow Divine Jade?"
"Ice Marrow Divine Jade?"
A trace of confusion flashed across the faces of Shangguan Tiehong and Shangguan Yu. Shangguan Yu had never heard the name of such a spiritual creature, while Shangguan Tiehong knew about his family's situation and seemed to have nothing similar to its name.
He frowned and said:
"Did the Marquis make a mistake? There is no ice marrow jade in the treasure house of my Shangguan clan. Or does it have another name?"
Chen Yuan's eyes flashed, and he understood the secret. It turned out that even the Shangguan family himself didn't know about the opportunity guided by the Luck Altar, which was consistent with past experience.
He calmly continued:
"Uncle, don't worry. Although this thing is within the Shangguan clan, few people know about it because it is at the bottom of a cold pond in the Shangguan family."
"How did the Marquis know that there is a cold pool in my Shangguan family?" Shangguan Tiehong felt a chill down his spine, because the cold pool was the secret place of Shangguan's family.
No one knows except the head of the family.
Even Shangguan Yu doesn't know now.
Now that he heard the news from an 'outsider' like Chen Yuan, it had to be said that it was a little hard for him to accept.
"It's not Chen who deliberately snooped. There is just another channel. This ice marrow jade is at the bottom of the cold pool. There is no mistake. So I hope my uncle can part with me."
Chen Yuan didn't explain much because he couldn't explain it clearly.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Simply skip this question.
"I wonder what the Marquis needs this thing for?"
"For practice."
Shangguan Tiehong did not respond immediately. Although Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong wanted to agree, they also knew their surnames. It would be too unruly to speak directly, so they immediately fell silent.
With his eyes lowered, Shangguan Tiehong hesitated and glanced at Chen Yuan subconsciously. He just happened to see his smiling expression. For some reason, his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
He immediately understood in his heart that with Chen Yuan's means and abilities, if he wanted this thing, he could definitely get it, because it was inevitable.
Now I say this just because of the relationship between them.
If you refuse, you may fall out. Of course, you may also skip this matter, but you obviously can't gamble on this kind of thing. You just got involved with Chen Yuan, how can you do something bad because of a spiritual creature?
With the power and means that Chen Yuan has shown today, the future is simply unimaginable.
In the realm of Yuanshen, one can use the power of all beings in the world to fight against the Yangshen. No matter what the price is, this is what the Shangguan family looks up to, and this person's future is limitless.
We must better seize this potential stock.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. Now that you have spoken, I will definitely agree that as long as there is an ice marrow jade in the cold pool of the clan, it will be delivered to Shuzhou City within a few days."
"Then thank you uncle. I won't take this thing for nothing. Please make a condition."
Needless to say, the preciousness of the Ice Marrow Divine Jade is a rare spiritual object in the world. It cannot be measured by just a few crystals, and he is not someone who takes advantage.
As long as he can take it out, he must make up for it.
But Shangguan Tiehong waved his hand and chuckled:
"This thing will be used as Hong'er's dowry."
"father"
A blush flashed across Shangguan Hong's face, feeling a little embarrassed in front of so many people.
"Okay, since my uncle said so, my nephew will not refuse and will definitely give the Shangguan family a satisfactory betrothal gift in the future." Chen Yuan thought for a moment and nodded.
Seeing several people discussing something good, Shangguan Yu interrupted:
"Brother Chen, what are you going to do with Guangming Temple?"
He knew Chen Yuan's character, and he always felt that because of Yao Xin's incident, Qingzhou and even the South would no longer be peaceful.
"The presiding officer of Guangming Temple attacked the imperial official and should be executed for his crime. Since this person is the mastermind, the monks of Guangming Temple are the accomplices, so he should be punished according to the laws of the imperial court."
Yaoxin had the initiative before taking action, but after taking action, Chen Yuan had an excuse to destroy the family. Guangming Temple, which had been built for more than two hundred years, would presumably add a lot of resources to him.
Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Tiehong looked at each other and continued to ask:
"Does Shangguan family need to intervene?"
"No, this is not a matter of the Jianghu, but of the imperial court. You are not needed for the time being. All you need to do is send the Ice Marrow Divine Jade as soon as possible. That will be a great help to Chen."
"In that case, let's take our leave first, and I will return to my clan immediately to find the whereabouts of the spiritual objects." Seeing Chen Yuan's eagerness, Shangguan Tiehong stopped wasting time.
"Thank you uncle."
Chen Yuan stood up to see him off and sent him outside the gate of the Tianxuan Division.
Only Shangguan Yu and Shangguan Hong stayed.
"Sir, three hundred patrol guards have gathered." Lu Renyi hurriedly walked forward.
"You guys will set off first, mobilizing elite troops along the way and heading straight to Qingzhou Guangming Temple!" Chen Yuan said calmly.
After killing Yao Xin, he had already given orders and began to mobilize some elites in Shuzhou City to prepare for the real start of the first fire.
Although it's not Shuzhou, Qingzhou is right next to it, so the effect is expected to be there.
"As you command!"
Lu Renyi bowed and resigned.
"Brother Chen, do you want to take action now?" Shangguan Yu asked.
"No overnight grudges"
