Chapter 484: Yuexi and Yanzhen's Choice
As Yuexi and Yanzhen turned their gaze to Jiang Chen, the old man in hemp clothes beside him also looked towards Jiang Chen, waiting for his answer.
Jiang Chen smiled slightly when he saw the three powerful gods from the Holy Lord Palace turning their gaze towards him.
"It's not a big deal, I just want you three to join forces with my Guigu lineage."
"Together we will fight against the crazy moves that Confucianism might make next."
After hearing Jiang Chen's words, Yue Xi and Yan Zhen were slightly stunned and looked at Jiang Chen in disbelief.
“What crazy things might a Confucianist do?”
"Holy Lord, but the Holy Lord Palace has a rule that we cannot interfere in the affairs of the various schools of thought."
After hesitating for a moment, Yan Zhen still spoke to Jiang Chen.
Yuexi on the side also nodded in agreement. Jiang Chen did not explain to the two people who were full of doubts.
Instead, he turned his gaze to the old man in hemp clothes beside him, and saw Jiang Chen turned his gaze to him.
The old man in hemp clothes smiled knowingly, walked up to Yuexi and Yanzhen and spoke.
"You two don't know yet?"
"The Holy Lord was once plotted against by the Confucians and nearly died at the hands of the newly promoted god-level Confucianist."
"Not only that, in recent years, there have always been disciples of various schools of thought who have died in that forbidden area. It is also a secret place secretly controlled by Confucianism."
As the old man in hemp clothes finished speaking, Yuexi and Yanzhen took a deep breath.
After learning the reason for the incident, the two looked at each other and made their own decisions.
"Holy Lord, to be honest, we both have some connection with Confucianism."
"If this is true, we two are willing to follow your orders!"
Yuexi and Yanzhen said this while bowing to Jiang Chen.
Seeing that the two agreed, Jiang Chen smiled slightly, and a big stone in his heart fell to the ground.
After all, although Confucianism is not the most powerful school among the Hundred Schools of Thought, it has many vassal schools.
If these vassal sects and Confucianism unite together, it will be an extremely terrible thing.
If one wants to fight back relying solely on the power of the Guigu lineage, it would undoubtedly be like hitting a rock with an egg.
Not to mention the two schools of Mohism and Legalism, it is very likely that these two.
He will take advantage of the confrontation between Confucianism and Guiguzi to interfere and reap the benefits!
Therefore, Jiang Chen must rely on the power of the Holy Lord Palace!
In fact, logically speaking, this matter is the responsibility of the Holy Lord Palace.
Originally, the Holy Lord Palace was established to check and balance the various schools of thought and maintain the order of the ancient holy land.
However, when the previous Holy Lords were in office , several powerful men in the late Divine Realm of the Holy Lord Palace passed away one after another.
This led the previous Holy Lords to secretly make a decision , which was to allow competition among the various schools of thought.
Unless the ancient holy land is in crisis, the Holy Lord Palace must never interfere in the affairs of the various schools of thought.
It was only after making this decision that the Holy Lord Palace was able to preserve the combat power of the powerful gods.
"Okay, Senior Mai, you can go down and rest with Senior Yuexi and Senior Yanzhen!"
"I can just rest here by myself."
Seeing that the matter had been resolved, Jiang Chen smiled and said to the three old men in hemp clothes.
"Yes, Holy Lord, I will take my leave now."
Upon hearing this, the old man in hemp clothes bowed to Jiang Chen, then retreated with Yue Xi and Yan Zhen.
After the three powerful gods walked out of the Holy Lord's Palace, the old man in hemp clothes sighed and said to Yue Xi and Yan Zhen.
"Yuexi, Yanzhen, the two of you should put away your little thoughts."
"I know you have a good relationship with that pale-faced young man from the Confucian School, but this is related to the safety of the Holy Lord."
"I hope you will think twice before you act, and don't forget our responsibilities!"
After the old man in hemp clothes gave some instructions to Yuexi and Yanzhen, he turned around and left the Holy Lord's Hall with heavy steps.
Looking at the departing figure of the old man in hemp clothes, Yuexi and Yanzhen were slightly stunned.
"Yanzhen, do you think the situation between us and the Confucians is really going to get to this point?"
A hint of pity flashed across Yuexi's face, and she asked Yan Zhen.
Listening to Yuexi's question, Yanzhen gritted his teeth and answered.
"What else can we do? As members of the Holy Lord Palace, we should do this!"
"What's more, the Confucianists have already threatened the new Holy Lord. Do you think the two of us can stay out of it?"
Hearing this, Yue Xi shook her head helplessly and said to Yan Zhen.
"Yan Zhen, I understand. I know what to do if this battle is unavoidable."
"Then we can only let Bai Shusheng know how powerful we are."
After saying that, Yuexi disappeared in a flash.
After Yuexi left, Yan Zhen, dressed in a Taoist robe, sat cross-legged on the ground, guarding outside the Holy Lord's Hall.
In this way, the night passed slowly.
As the first rays of morning light fell, Jiang Chen also opened his eyes.
Now, after being baptized by the Guigu Spiritual Spring, the spiritual energy in Jiang Chen's body has been completely enhanced.
It can be said that Jiang Chen’s current strength has reached a level that is difficult to match by others at the same level.
Let’s put it this way, although Jiang Chen is still a warrior in the early stage of the Saint Realm.
However, the fact that he had comprehended the perfect sword and spear intent before entering the holy realm was enough for him to contend against warriors in the late holy realm.
Once Jiang Chen's cultivation level gets a breakthrough, then by then, I'm afraid he will have no rivals below the Divine Realm!
Jiang Chen had already learned about this matter from the old man in hemp clothes and his master Wang Xu.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen stood up and gently adjusted the Jinghong sword at his waist.
“I didn’t expect that this trip to the ancient holy land would not only help me achieve the holy realm.”
"I actually became the master of this ancient holy land. It's really intriguing!"
Jiang Chen sighed with emotion, then opened the door of the Holy Lord's Palace and walked out.
As soon as he went out, Jiang Chen saw Yan Zhen sitting cross-legged outside the hall, who had been guarding him for the whole night.
After sensing Jiang Chen's breath, Yan Zhen opened his eyes, stood up and saluted Jiang Chen.
"Meet the Holy Lord."
"Well, Senior Yan Zhen, good morning. Actually, you don't need to be so polite."
"Although I am a Saint Lord, I am only at the Saint level after all. You guys are doing this to me, and I feel a little embarrassed as a Saint Lord."
Jiang Chen looked at Yan Zhen and said jokingly.
As Jiang Chen finished speaking, the old man in hemp clothes slowly appeared in front of Jiang Chen.
"Haha, Holy Lord, please don't embarrass me and other old men. We must bow when we see the Holy Lord. This is the rule of the Holy Lord Palace."
"If we break the rules, it will be more trouble than it's worth!"
Hearing Elder Lian Mai say this, Jiang Chen could only smile and shake his head.
