Outside the Daoist temple, a few tall, short, fat, and thin burly men with their own characteristics stood at the door and waited.
Everyone’s faces were filled with a murderous expression. It was obvious that they were from the Heavenly King Stronghold.
The leader was the chief, Lu Longchuan, while the others were the leaders of the stronghold. They had been summoned to the capital to receive a reward.
“We haven’t had any contact with Perfected Master Windwalker before. I wonder if he’s willing to see us.”
Xiang Tianjie muttered softly, his tone hesitant.
Lu Longchuan shook his head, “It’s hard to say. This person is a favorite of the Emperor and is extremely well-liked at the moment. His status is not something we can compare to. He might not be interested in seeing us.”
Hearing this, a rough-looking bearded man beside him was dissatisfied. He shouted, “Brother, you’re underestimating yourself. He’s just a cow’s nose. If Brother wants to see him, I’ll rush in and catch him!”
“Er Hu, don’t be rude!”
Lu Longchuan immediately berated. He paused for a moment before saying in a deep voice, “This Perfected Master Windwalker is famous in the world. It’s said that he has a great divine power and is an expert of the current era. Control your temper and don’t offend him!”
“What expert’s divine power? I’ve never seen it before. It’s most likely fake. How strong they are, they all only have one head. The it’s smashed flat with a hammer, it’s still a death.” Er Hu muttered unhappily.
This person’s name was Shi Hu, and his nickname was Er Hu. He was good at using two hammers and was often in charge of charging into battle in the stronghold. He was a boorish person by nature.
“Er Hu, don’t speak later, lest you offend him,” a scholar said. He gently shook the bamboo fan in his hand and smiled, “Perfected Master Windwalker has a transcendent status in the capital. Even Minister Qin has to give him some face. If we can build a relationship with him, we can get him to put in a good word for us in front of His Majesty. In the future, there will be endless benefits.”
“Since the Military Advisor has said so, I’ll just keep quiet later.” Shi Hu snorted, showing that he respected this scholar.
This scholar’s name was Sun Rong, and he was the third leader of the Heavenly King Stronghold. He was the overall military advisor of the stronghold.
This time, he had done his best to facilitate everyone’s visit to meet Perfected Master Windwalker.
Lu Longchuan lowered his voice and asked, “Military Advisor, it’s fine if we meet the Perfected One, but we’re not related to him. Must we invite him to our mountain?”
Sun Rong’s expression turned serious as he nodded, “That’s right. This time, our men have contributed greatly. Although we’ve been rewarded, the Imperial Court also requests that we go to Huyang to eliminate the bandits next spring. We have to ask for the help of an expert on this trip, or our future will be bleak!”
He paused for a moment before continuing,
“The bandits at Northern Yan and Eastern Tai are rampant. Fortunately, we were once the leaders of the Green Forest in the North. We subdued everything we could and destroyed everything that needed to be destroyed. The rest are all stragglers. It was considered a close call in these two places… But Huyang is different. It’s a first-rate dangerous place in the world!
Chen Feng has unparalleled martial arts and courage, and he also has 100,000 people under him. Moreover, the Huyang Water Net is dense and complicated. We’re not good at water battles, and we’ll be exhausted from the long journey. On the other hand, the other party’s navy is powerful and simply needs to wait for us to exhaust ourselves.
If we use our shortcomings to attack the enemy’s strength, all our brothers might be killed there… Therefore, if we can’t ask the expert to come out of the mountain to help, our chances of survival are slim.”
Everyone nodded.
Other than getting to know more people, his other goal was to ask this expert to help them eliminate the bandits.
After all, the strength of Dragon King Chen Feng was world-shaking. If they could not find a way to defeat the enemy, they really felt that they had no chance of winning.
If Perfected Master Windwalker really grasped the immortal technique to summon the wind and rain as the rumors said, he might be one of the few people in the world who could deal with Chen Feng.
“I hope he’s not a fraud… And that he’s willing to see us.”
Xiang Tianjie sighed.
At this moment, the receptionist walked out and called out to everyone, “My master invites you. Everyone, follow me.”
The people from the Heavenly King Stronghold immediately heaved a sigh of relief and quickly entered the Daoist temple. They followed the receptionist around a few courtyards and quickly arrived at the main house.
As soon as everyone entered, they saw Zhou Jing, who was dressed like a Daoist priest, and bowed.
“Greetings, Divine Firmament Wind Spirit Daoist.”
“There’s no need to be so polite.”
Zhou Jing waved his hand and swept his gaze across these people. Finally, his gaze landed on Lu Longchuan and he smiled.
“In the capital, I’ve long heard that Chief Lu had been recruited by the Imperial Court and had returned to the path of righteousness. I’m only lucky to see him today.”
Lu Longchuan was stunned. He did not expect this person to be so polite. He was immediately flattered. He cupped his hands and replied, “Your name is famous all over the world, and I’ve always admired you. Please don’t blame me for visiting you rashly today.”
The two of them chatted for a while before Zhou Jing called everyone to take a seat and asked his disciple to serve tea to everyone.
After chatting for a while, everyone got to know each other.
After discovering that Perfected Master Windwalker, who had gained power, was not arrogant and domineering and instead quite kind, the people from the Heavenly King Stronghold calmed down and did not have so many concerns.
Sun Rong gave Lu Longchuan a look.
Lu Longchuan understood and moistened his throat. He changed the topic and said seriously,
“To be honest, we came here today to ask for a request.”
“Go ahead.” Zhou Jing’s expression did not change.
Lu Longchuan’s tone became serious as he said, “The official has issued a decree for us to go to Huyang to eliminate the bandits. That bandit leader, Chen Feng, is extremely skilled in martial arts and has a wide range of troops under him. I’m afraid we’re not his match and will ruin the Imperial Court’s plan. After thinking about it, only the Perfected One has the ability to subdue this person, so I’m here to ask the Perfected One to help us.”
When Zhou Jing heard this, he was not surprised at all. He smiled and asked, “Has the official issued a decree for me to follow the army?”
