“Boom…”
A huge white hand pinned Agogo to the ground and held him still.
“Roar!”
Agogo roared in rage, his thick arm carrying the power of a god that could break mountains, and pressed against the ground to lift his sprawling body.
However, no matter how hard he tried, countless cracks opened up in the bottom of the pit, but he only pressed his body deeper. Even the secret divine power of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, the “Phoenix Heavenly Curse”, was not compatible with the “Hao Ran Zheng Qi”, so it was clear how domineering it was.
In the sky above the Imperial City, Meng Shanhe’s Zheng Qi incarnation stood with his hands behind his back, and the clouds formed by the Hao Ran Zheng Qi overflowed in the air. Two huge white palms, the same as the one holding down Aguge, were pressing a huge fireball on the left and the right.
In the ball of fire was the head of the Great Snow Mountain Tantric Sect, Venerable Red Sun.
The head of the Great Snow Mountain sect, who is usually a man of his word, was sweating profusely at the moment, his hands open and the flaming shield he was maintaining at death’s door to withstand the two huge white palms.
But just like Agogo, what the Red Sun Dharma King did was equally pointless.
“Boom…”
The fireball blossomed like a firework, and the Red Sun Dharma King was caught between the two giant palms, his bones, which were supposed to be adamantine, were making twisted creaking sounds.
“Most Cheng!”
The Red Sun Dharma King did not dare to disrespect Meng Shanhe, so he could only vent his anger on Most Cheng, who had pitted him. Where was the promised infallibility? Where was the promised march into Northern Zhou? And where was the greatest card? Why hasn’t it appeared yet?
It was a pity that the three Tantric God-Realm powerhouses involved had been killed by the white palm a quarter of an hour earlier, leaving no scraps left.
Amongst all the Tong Shen realm powerhouses from Eastern Japan, only Liu Sheng Zongyan, whose priority was to protect the ‘Heavenly Clouds Sword’, quietly withdrew after seeing Meng Shanhe lightly block the shockwave that hit the Imperial City, and was carried away by a black shadow.
In fact, the Tantric clan’s plan was quite good, with five people forming the Mandala’s Formation, together with the Nine Dragons Ding Heavenly Formation and the Dragon and Phoenix Harmony formed by Feng Ming Xiao, and with Xin Yuan as the traitor stabbing the knife, it was basically the result that would surely kill the Zen clan.
The Shanhe Academy will first be stalled by Feng Tianming’s decree, and according to Meng Shanhe’s usual principles, he will basically not intervene.
After the killing of the Zen Sect, Liu Sheng Zongyan then used the ‘Heavenly Clouds Sword’, the most ferocious weapon that restrains the Dragon Vein, to execute the sword art that killed the Yaki Snake, ‘Zhanba Minamata’, to sever the Dragon Vein of Northern Zhou, causing the Emperor of Northern Zhou, Feng Tianming, to be seriously injured.
After that, he lured the Red Sun Dharma King and Right Sage King Agogo in to kill Feng Tianming and Feng Mingxiao, and if Meng Shanhe had struck at this point, he would have allowed the Khan King of the Golden Wolf Khanate to enter and hold back.
It is important to know that Meng Shanhe has been protecting the Northern Zhou for three hundred years, and with such strength, he has not yet resolved the aggression of the Golden Wolf Khanate, all because that Golden Wolf Khanate has the strength to compete with him.
If it were not for the fact that the Heavenly Ranking only ranked Chinese masters, the Golden Wolf Khan would have been on the list.
Even if the Golden Wolf Khan could not hold out, the Tantric clan still had its greatest card, the Sun God’s Heavenly Light from the Far East, which had not yet been played.
In theory, such a well thought out plan, with all its components, would have been foolproof.
But now, as it turned out, every link in the plan had failed.
First, Feng Tianming turned against him and helped Xin Wen escape death. Then there was Xin Yuan’s stabbing that backfired, Meng Shanhe’s strong entrance to suppress all disobedience, and Xin Yuan’s interception of Tian Zhao on the shores of the Eastern Sea.
Of all the plans of the Secret Sect, the only one that was successful in disguise was when Yangsheng Zongyan used the ‘Heavenly Clouds Sword’ to cut off the dragon line of the Northern Zhou.
But this plan, oh, perhaps not necessarily the only one that the Tantric clan wanted to accomplish.
“Meng Shanhe, stop.”
A majestic voice, with endless domineering intent, resounded out of thin air above the Imperial City.
“King Khan.” Agogo instantly recognised the owner of this voice, it was the voice of the King of the Golden Wolf Khanate, the master of the Northern Steppes.
“King Khan.” The Red Sun Dharma King was also finally at ease, he felt that his life should be saved.
“King of the Golden Wolf Khanate, it’s been many years since we parted, goodbye.” Meng Shanhe’s incarnation said with a smile on his face.
He had actually been waiting for the Golden Wolf Khan King to appear, otherwise, with Meng Shanhe’s strength, even though Agogo and the Red Sun Dharma King were considered experts in the Tong Shen realm, it would still be difficult for them to last so long in his hands.
“Meng Shanhe, let go of Agogo and the Red Sun Dharma King, and this Khan promises not to take advantage of this opportunity to invade Northern Zhou.”
The Golden Wolf Khan’s voice was irreversibly domineering, as if he was about to make a final decision on the matter.
“Ten years, the Golden Wolf Khanate will not invade Northern Zhou for ten years.”
However, Meng Shanhe cultivated “Hao Rang Zheng Qi”, so was he not a weak person, and directly asked for a ten-year period. Even before that, the Golden Wolf Court had not invaded for more than a year, otherwise there would not have been the last time when Yi Qianshan killed 100,000 people in battle.
Meng Shanhe asking for ten years at once is simply ——
“Dream on!” The Golden Wolf Khan King coldly snorted, “The Northern Zhou is now so wounded that it is questionable whether the Northern Zhou Emperor can survive more than three years, ten years, don’t think too well.”
“Meng Shanhe, I will not agree to this, at worst, I will slaughter 200,000 people in Northern Zhou to bury Agugo and King Chirri. Meng Shanhe, you have to think clearly whether you want to kill the Red Sun Dharma King and Agogo, or whether you want the 200,000 lives of the Northern Zhou.”
The words were extremely threatening; slaughtering 200,000 people was something that the Golden Wolf Khan King was absolutely capable of doing.
So, did Meng Shanhe, who was a Confucianist, agree?
If it was before, Meng Shanhe would definitely agree, but now well ——
“King Khan must not forget that in the future the Zen Sect will enter Northern Zhou to preach, how many followers can the Zen Sect bring out of these 200,000 people?”
Meng Shanhe looked at Xinwen, “Master Xinwen, does the Zen Sect care about this matter?”
“Amitabha Buddha,” Xinwen said, “Naturally we must. King Golden Wolf Khan, the heavens are kind to us, and I, the Great Zen Temple, will not allow you to slaughter innocent people.”
It had been so hard to enter Northern Zhou to preach, and this was no time to lose all that had been achieved.
The sky above suddenly fell into silence, as if the Golden Wolf Khan King was also caught in a decision at this time.
The Abbot of the Great Zen Temple, Abbot Xin Yuan, was a stronger person than Meng Shan He. If the two were to work together, the Golden Wolf Khanate would not be a problem at all.
In fact, the bigger problem now is that the Golden Wolf Khanate is being invaded by the Northern Zhou with the help of the Zen Sect, which would have been possible had the Zen Sect and the Confucian Sect not been at odds.
Now, it seems that ten years is not a chance for the Northern Zhou, but for the Golden Wolf Khanate.
The Golden Wolf Khan looks as if he is the only one, but in fact, the nature of the wolf is not only fierce, but also cunning, comparable to that of a fox. In fact, the Golden Wolf Khan has already made up his mind on what to choose.
