Chapter 685 – Sword Name Evening Shade
In the hearts of those who knew about this matter, the chances of something happening in the Sword Casting Valley were ten to one, and the only suspense was whether Zheng Haoran had the chance to run out and escape with his life.
The place was too far away, the preparation was insufficient, and it was beyond anyone’s reach. Originally, Xue Mu also felt that Zheng Yezhi was very prescient, placed Zheng Yichen in the spirit state, that is, outside and safe, no matter how the Cast Sword Valley changes can stay Zheng family a seed outside, he also intends to help Zheng Yichen a wave of counterpropagation, to help him up on the Cast Sword Valley master position it.
But now he realized that Zheng Yezhi’s idea was not for this, but to avoid brotherly rivalry.
With Zheng Yichen’s complex mindset nowadays, he didn’t even know if he wished for his elder brother to die, or if he wished for him to run out and live well.
In any case, this kind of ambivalence Xue Mu could understand. Everything is afraid of comparisons, as long as it is compared to Ji Wuyou, this Zheng family is simply even a brotherly friend and harmonious.
Used to seeing all kinds of rebels and ruthlessness, Zheng Yi Chen’s performance of speaking his negative thoughts and punishing himself is a clear stream, making Xue Mu and Xiahou Di’s hearts a little warm. Xue Mu patted his shoulder, comforted: “Do not think so much, the boat to the bridge naturally straight, I see your brother is not a short-lived phase, my Star Moon Sect people outside the preparation of the rescue, may really be able to escape. When the time comes, I will treat you brothers to a drink, a wave of flat push to slaughter the traitors cleanly, to avenge Master Zheng.”
Xiahou Di also said, “What’s so good about the position of the master of the Cast Sword Valley, you will come to be the Chief of Transportation at that time, I will never make a joke.”
Zheng Yi Chen smiled, “Your Majesty has the heart.”
Seeing that Zheng Yi Chen was not in high spirits at this time, the two men did not bother anymore and excused themselves and left.
Walked outside, Xiahou Di only sighed: “I do not know what is good to fight for this emperor’s seat, since sitting up, I only feel the pressure of the sky to meet the face, pressure people can not breathe. As if everyone in the world is watching me, I have every instruction is related to the welfare of thousands of people, one step do not dare to make a mistake. They also trampled on all conscience to fight for this position, what exactly do they want?”
Xue Mu was dumbfounded, “You only see responsibility, they see power.”
“The Great Zhou Emperor, who doesn’t have much power, is too restricted by the great clans, and the imperial orders have no effect on you at all. Like Lengzhu Yun Qianwu they, at the drop of a hat, rebel rebellion, independent independence, the majesty of the court in the eyes of Yun Qianwu is not as good as a word of advice from Mu Jianli. What kind of power is this castrated power, is it worth it?”
“Castrated power is also power, casting the sword valley kind of joint system, valley master power is even smaller, is not still a group of people red-eyed to fight, as usual, triggered the problem between brothers. Good in the Zheng family brothers character is still good ……”
Xiahou Di looked at the distant sky somewhat out of her mind and said in a low voice, “Could it be that this kind of thing can only go round and round forever?”
Xue Mu didn’t answer and changed the topic, “What do you think an Evil Fury is? That has never been anything more than a refraction and manifestation of the human heart. The more the world of martial arts, the more powerful it is by virtue of its body, and as strong as the Zhenshi Cauldron, it can only be subdued, but not eliminated.”
Xiahou Di was confused, “What do you think I should do?”
“Although the evil of the human heart never ends, but at least it can still be taught and guided, and it can also be diluted. If the world is prosperous and everyone lives in peace, then there is a limit to how much hostility there can be. If they are all in ruins like Yizhou, wouldn’t that be a hotbed of evil spirits? As an emperor, you should at least do this aspect right …… Your father and Ji Wuyou, have been walking in the opposite direction, putting the cart before the horse, which has naturally led to today’s chaotic situation.”
Xue Mu said these are typical diversion, in fact, with Xiahou Di initially asked him the question is not the same thing, this is because he also can not answer that kind of question, the struggle for power and profit throughout the ages who can solve? He’s seen more than he’s ever seen a time that was so harmonious.
But Xue Mu said a little more perspective, this answer is also very important to Xiahou Di, the exhaustion and confusion caused after forcing her way to the top was cleared up quite a bit in a single speech. She took a deep breath, her eyes became more and more determined, and whispered, “I …… will do a good job.”
At this time, the Sword Casting Valley had indeed just begun to be in turmoil.
The great artisan joint system of the Sword Casting Valley also has a historical origin, a group of like-minded founders formed a collective, and holding the arms trade, everyone has everyone’s line, and everyone’s craftsmanship specialty. This is very difficult to say by a family, evolved over the years some similar to the modern board of directors, except that the composition of the board of directors is not according to the shares but according to the family inheritance, which each generation of casting the strongest sword level of that is the master of the valley, similar to the chairman of the board of directors and the chief executive officer, he can not say a word of wisdom, but also subject to the board of directors of the views of the constraints.
For example, if the Zheng family wants to make a deal with Xue Mu, first Zheng Haoran represents the Zheng family to make a deal on their own, and then when it comes to the sect level deal, they also need to persuade the collective and pass a resolution together. This kind of valley master’s authority is not even as good as Mu Jian Li, who was just on the throne when the master was young and doubtful, and all the valley masters have been hollowed out very often.
Zheng Yezhi is relatively authoritative valley master, many things can be strong say. When he was in the capital for a long time because of the imperial order, the “board of directors” presided over by the second Speaker of the Tie Jingxuan agent, and the “executive president” position he can also hand over to his nephew Zheng Haoran.
Zheng family family group of people to protect, Zheng Haoran in the valley also do a good job.
Zheng Yezhi also knows that this is not a long-term solution, may be out of the basket at any time. His greatest hope was that he would be able to cave in, and then he would be able to go back to the valley to stabilize everything, he even wanted to reverse the joint system of the millennium, and turn the Sword Casting Valley into a Zheng family inheritance.
Who knew that cavitation was cavitation, but he didn’t make it back alive.
“Today’s meeting is called for two topics.” Tie Jingxuan looked around the round table, his gaze lingered on Zheng Haoran’s face for a moment, and said with a smile, “The first one is about increasing the support of Pill King Valley’s weapons. Pill King Valley and us have always been as close as family, and above the imperial court, the Medical Saint also advances and retreats with the Valley Master, so their request for weapon support is something that should be fulfilled.”
Zheng Haoran did not even raise his eyelids, “Is this an issue? Or an opinion?”
“First the topic, then Iron Mou’s own opinion is attached.”
“Pill King Valley and us have had regular dealings throughout the years, this matter can be resolved by sending a messenger directly to me, why do we need to go through a meeting?”
“Because what they want is to equip all the disciples with ground level or higher blades at once, virtuous nephew can’t do the main thing.”
“Oh, then this is something that my Zheng family does not agree with.” Zheng Haoran simply threw out a sentence.
“Is it possible that Xian Nephew wants to destroy the thousand year friendship between Sword Casting Valley and Pill King Valley?”
“Haven’t seen that friendship is maintained by emptying out one’s own storage of Earth grade blades, wouldn’t it be better for Uncle Tie to just move the entire Sword Casting Valley warehouse over there?” Zheng Haoran coldly said, “Not to mention that the Medicine King Valley Medical Sage isn’t here, who could set up a deal of this magnitude without authorization, where is the messenger?”
Tie Jingxuan looked at him for a long time and suddenly laughed, “Then let’s put it on hold and let’s go over the second topic.”
Zheng Haoran locked eyes with him, some imperceptible blood in his eyes, and calmly replied, “What topic?”
Tie Jingxuan leisurely said, “It’s not a solution for the Valley Master to be in the capital for a long period of time. According to the ancestral precepts, shouldn’t we select an acting Valley Master from the next generation to preside over the big picture?”
Zheng Haoran revealed a cold smile and “snapped” his sword on the table, “The sword is called Evening Sun, a top grade of the Heavenly Grade, with its own spirit. When a strong person polishes his sword intent and bathes in blood in a hundred battles, he will enter the Divine Grade. Let alone the next generation, even you, Tie Jingxuan, pull out your casting to compare!”
The entire audience clamored.
Tie Jingxuan’s pupils shrunk.
This is the highest grade of earthly sword casting can achieve, and Mu Jian Li’s flying light a grade, as long as with a strong person a thousand battles, since the spirit, become a strong enough to match the real artifacts of the Harmonious Dao. For a sword casting clan, what does it mean to be in your twenties to be able to create such a divine item?
No one had ever imagined that Zheng Haoran, at such a young age, would actually be able to truly push his own innate spirit sword to such a level!
To talk about the ancestral system and rules of the Sword Casting Valley, it would be better to save your breath, if you really want to follow the rules, Zheng Haoran is the unquestionable next Valley Master, and you can pay your respects right now!
