377 Chapter 376 Guardian Lu mingheng
The Wei state’s conditions were not much different from what they had offered before. They still offered a large amount of resources and spiritual stones as gifts, and they gave up a County in Hezhou without any additional benefits.
However, Chen man’s breakthrough to the Dharma stage was a heavy weight on the balance.
After knowing this information, it was easy to associate it with why the Wei State dared to make such a big move against the Qi state.
The change in the external environment was, of course, an important factor. Great Qin started to expand to the West of the world, causing a massive stir. This would make many countries pay attention to the Qin State and have no time to pay attention to what the Wei State was doing.
The most direct ones were the country of Liang and the country of Chu, the two countries that originally had borders with the Wei country.
For the Wei State, this was indeed an opportunity to expand while the Qin State was expanding.
However, if that was all, their actions were still too bold and radical. In any case, Great Yan was in the North, and great Wu was in the South. If these two countries interfered, it would be very difficult for the Wei Kingdom to succeed in its expansion plan.
However, if the ‘ghost-faced God’ Chen Man had recently advanced to the Dharma stage, then the whole matter could be linked.
An additional Dharma power meant that the Wei Kingdom would have a very heavy weight in the kingdom war, so much so that it could affect the overall outcome of the war.
The most concentrated reaction was from the people of Yan country. After hearing this news, they were immediately not moved.
Wasn’t it obvious that he had revealed this information?
This was a warning.
Furthermore, Xia Cang was not the only Dharma adept in the Wei Kingdom. Generally speaking, most of the people in the various countries were inclined to believe that the Wei State had two Dharma laksanas.
Of course, Xia Cang was the one on the surface, and he was very strong. However, the Wei Kingdom should still have a fa Xiang, because all the forces-not just the country-had some information. Some of the operations should have been carried out by the Wei Kingdom, suspected to be done by a fa Xiang, but not by Xia Cang.
When such information was accumulated, the fact that there was another person besides Xia Cang in the Wei country, fa Xiang, became quite credible. In fact, from various sources of information, some candidates could even be finalized: In Wei, there were five nascent soul cultivators who didn’t usually show their reputation. They were thought to be hiding their strength and were actually at the Dharma plane.
However, Chen Man, the ghost-faced God, was not one of them.
Although Chen Man had been thought to be a late-stage or even peak-stage nascent soul cultivator many years ago, he wasn’t listed as a candidate for the Dharma stage. Although he was very mysterious, he was actually not very old. According to the earliest signs of another Dharma in the Wei State, the ghost-faced God was only in the Golden core stage.
No matter how he disguised himself, he could not disguise his Dharma form as a golden core cultivator.
The fact that the ghost-faced God had become a Dharma adept meant that there were two more Dharma adepts in the Wei State who had yet to show up.
The Yan Kingdom going south? Grandmaster Weiyun?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhat should he do when he bumped into two Dharma adepts?
If this matter could be confirmed, then the Yan Kingdom’s action to the South would indeed need to be considered more carefully.
However, there was one thing that Yingying couldn’t ignore. Was the Wei Kingdom lying?
The Jinyiwei intelligence agents hiding in Wei didn’t send any corresponding news. After Lu chaoxi reported this matter to the Yunxiao sect, they also said that they had not received any information about this.
This situation was worth pondering over.
He couldn’t judge for sure if the envoy of Wei was lying, but at least this possibility existed.
It would be very embarrassing if they were frightened by such a simple lie. However, if they did not believe it and the result was true, it would not be a good thing if they ended up bleeding.
This matter had to be cleared up.
Yunxiao sect would activate their intelligence network and think of a way to clarify this matter. Of course, Lu Wenen had also received an order from the Lu clan’s imperial court to do his best to find out the truth.
In addition to the intelligence system of the two major forces of Yan country, there were some other sources that could prove the source of the information.
Within two days, Lu Wenen had met with the envoys of many countries in the Yan Kingdom.
The information that these envoys held was actually quite important. Even if there were some people with low status, such as Chu, who only sent a Foundation Stage cultivator, it didn’t matter. If they didn’t know anything, they could contact the corresponding country behind them and ask.
There was a lot of information that was gathered.
For example, the Qi state insisted that they had never received such information and believed that Chen Man could not have entered the Dharma stage so quickly.
For example, the envoys of Chu and Liang gave an ambiguous answer. They thought that it was possible, but they were not certain.
The state of Wu was more certain that the ghost-faced God had most likely broken through to the Dharma stage.
These statements were very contradictory, and they could not be fully believed. For example, the Qi Kingdom was worried that the Yan Kingdom would not send troops. Naturally, they strongly denied this matter in order to dispel the Yan Kingdom’s concerns. In that case, their words would not be as credible.
Chu Liang’s message was vague, as if he wanted to stir up the water.
Wu Guo’s statement was so certain that it made people a little confused about their attitude.
At the end of the day, the statements of the various countries could only be used as reference. There were too many things from different standpoints mixed in. In essence, it was the same as the warning of the envoy of Wei State. They could only be passively listened to, but could not really be used as the basis for decision making.
On one hand, the Lu clan and Yunxiao sect still had to continue their research and think about what they should do if they faced many situations.
In addition, Wynn’s side was also trying their best to find out more about this matter.
The hidden Jinyiwei in the Qi and Wei countries had begun to shift their attention to deal with this matter. The situation in Qi state was still fine. The main thing was to investigate whether Qi state’s intelligence system had obtained any information about the ghost-faced God.
In this matter, the main force would definitely be the Jinyiwei.
Lu Wenen looked toward the South and muttered in his heart, ”
“Uncle Ming Heng, ran ran, it’s all up to you.”
......
Lu mingheng had joined the Jinyi guards for almost twenty years. When he first entered the embroidered uniform guards, he was only in the foundation building stage. Now, he was already a cultivator in the fourth level of the initial enlightenment stage.
Speaking of which, his cultivation progress was extremely fast even in the Lu family, where there were many geniuses. He was only 73 years old this year, and he had already reached the fourth level of the initial enlightenment stage. This was, of course, considered very fast.
Of course, there were many in the Lu clan who were faster and stronger than him. However, he didn’t feel that it was unfair. The real geniuses in the clan had single spiritual roots and even heaven spiritual roots. He only had double spiritual roots and was naturally lacking in talent. There was nothing he could do about it.
On the path of cultivation, having good talent was indeed of great help, whether it was at the beginning stage or at the upper limit of the later stages.
But in this world, talent didn’t mean everything.
In the end, personal comprehension, opportunities, the level of effort in cultivation, and the direction of the effort might be more important. Even the former Prime Minister of Great Yan, zou ziwu, only had two spiritual roots, but he was already standing firmly in the Yuanying stage.
...
Moreover, Lu mingheng knew that he seemed to be a special person.
Ever since he was very young, when he was just over ten years old and had officially started cultivating, his mind would always be filled with some comprehension of cultivation. Even he himself did not know where this kind of enlightenment came from.
Later on, as he grew older, whether it was his parents or others, they all said that he looked more and more like his biological grandfather, Lu chaoheng, who was also one of the nine ancestors of the clan.
The day that Chao Heng’s life ended would be the day he was born.
In his opinion, this was a great fate.
When he was older, he had a faint feeling that he was the reincarnation of his grandfather. There would always be some memories that did not belong to him, but actually belonged to his grandfather.
At first, he was afraid that one day, he would not be himself anymore. But later on, as he grew older, he realized that this only brought him benefits and no harm.
These memories wouldn’t affect his thoughts, and they wouldn’t change his personality. On the contrary, the comprehension of cultivation allowed him to take a few detours on the road of cultivation-at least when he was at the Qi refining level. It allowed him to walk very steadily on the road of cultivation when he first started. Not only was his cultivation progress faster than the other cultivators in his family who were more talented than him, but his Foundation was also unexpectedly stable.
In addition to the benefits of cultivation, there was another point. After awakening many of his grandfather Lu chaoheng’s memories, Lu mingheng knew many of the family’s past events. He had a deeper understanding of the family’s past hardships and how difficult it was to get to where he was today. At the same time, the memories of these seniors had also allowed him to gain a lot of knowledge and wisdom. It allowed him to think more comprehensively when he thought about things, and his character had become more stable.
These were all positive benefits.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe rapid progress of his cultivation saved him a lot of detours. He quickly entered the foundation building stage and even the initial enlightenment stage. Although these insights were actually gone after the foundation establishment stage, the road of cultivation was like this. One step was fast, and each step was fast. It was obviously beneficial to have a fast and steady start.
...
At the same time, his steady and meticulous character also allowed him to perform well in various family affairs, and he had made many contributions.
In addition, Lu Weiwen, who was his nephew in name but was actually more than ten years older than him, would often take care of him and intentionally guide him. He also worked hard, so after he advanced to the initial enlightenment stage, he became a core member that the family relied on. The family also had high hopes for him, and he was the future Star of Hope.
After entering the Embroidered Uniform Guard, he had also made many contributions.
And such an excellent performance had also given him an even more important responsibility: Seven years ago, when he was only at the second level of initial enlightenment, he was sent to Wei Kingdom to take over and establish Great Yan’s intelligence system in Wei Kingdom. He was also given the position of Guardian of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
Originally, this system did exist. However, after the rebellion in the Yan Kingdom, the connection with the new imperial court in the country had become very problematic. When the Lu dynasty was just established, the domestic affairs were also a mess. They did not have much energy to manage the intelligence system in foreign countries, so this matter was put on hold.
Fortunately, they didn’t have much information about the new dynasty, so their loss of control wouldn’t cause too much of a problem.
However, the lack of an intelligence system had to be solved. Not long after the establishment of the embroidered uniform guards, they had already begun to deal with this matter. Seven years ago, they even sent one of the Lu family’s important members, Lu mingheng, over.
According to the original plan, Ming Heng would stay in Wei for about ten years. He had already prepared a lot of cultivation resources for the time being, so he didn’t have to worry too much about his personal problems. His mission was to rebuild the intelligence system here and bring it under the command of the embroidered uniform guards.
He didn’t need to start from the beginning, but the difficulty was no less than starting from the beginning.
After all, the former Yan Kingdom’s intelligence system was still left behind in the Wei Kingdom. Of course, he could inherit this inheritance.
However, the new intelligence system could not rely too much on the old one. After all, these intelligence personnel used to belong to the old Great Yan imperial court. When li Shiwen was preparing to break through to the Dharma stage, he colluded with the Wei Kingdom. It was hard to say how many of the former intelligence systems of the great Yan Kingdom had already been exposed to the Wei Kingdom. Even those who were not exposed had the possibility of betraying the Yan Kingdom and colluding with the enemy.
The screening process was even more difficult than rebuilding.
But for the past seven years, Lu mingheng had done a good job. The traitors that should be dealt with had already been dealt with. What should be received had already been successfully received. The parts that he had rebuilt could also function normally.
At the moment, the mission from the Yan Kingdom was the first and most important test that the branch of the brocade guard in the Wei Kingdom, which was led by Lu mingheng, was facing. historical
After he accepted the mission with great care, he quickly put himself into action.
The embroidered uniform guards are in the Wei Kingdom. Where did you get these from? you must have accumulated some information. A famous nascent soul cultivator like the ghost-faced God, who had colluded with the faceless society in the Yan Kingdom, naturally needed to be paid special attention to.
In this way, the relevant information collection did not start from zero.
After careful investigation, Lu mingheng roughly figured out the location of the ghost-faced God Chen Man.
After Lu mingheng confirmed that there was no problem with the information, he left the capital of great Wei-xudu. He headed Southeast to Hu Han County.
Hu Han County was located on the southern side of the border between Xu Zhou and di Zhou.
According to the information, Chen Man should be living in a Valley Southwest of Hu Han County.
