He stood up, and suddenly bowed deeply, "Therefore, my lords, please let me trust you as soon as possible, just as I trust the two lords, Chen Zaiyan and Wang Kaitai. In the future, we will have no ill will towards each other, and the monarchs and ministers will be the same. No matter what they did or what they said, there was no gap between them. Then why wouldn't State of Yan be worried? My future is tied up with yours. I'm relying on you, you guys are relying on me. "
He stood up straight. "Although the war against the Youguo has temporarily stopped, the enemy will not give up. The military is of utmost importance. It would allow the Army to operate like the most sophisticated machine, with no gaps in their trust. Only then would the great swallow be able to maintain its stability. "
All the officials bowed deeply, "This subject understands!"
Xiao Qi Dao nodded, "Go, let's work together. As you all know, this is the most chaotic period, but it is the best period for you personally. As long as you do well enough, you will be able to progress quickly. "
He waved his hand and said, "Go and do all the work, starting with checking out all the traitors. "The Board of Justice and the Board of War are collaborating. Within one month, neither of the survivors of the Fine Rain Tower nor the Gao Family shall be left behind."
He looked at the head teacher of the Board of Punishments, Tan Taiche. "Lord Tantai, I'm counting on you."
Tan Taiche immediately took over: "We are willing to serve the King, I do not dare to slack off."
Seeing that An Zheng and the others had returned, the Xiao Qi Dao's eyes lit up. "Go back and work.
All the officials bowed and left.
When everyone had left, the Xiao Qi Dao ran over and hung them on An Zheng's body: "Have you brought back anything nice to eat?"
An Zheng burned the donkey meat he had just bought. Xiao Qi Dao snatched it away, opened the paper bag and started to nibble on it.
An Zheng: "Slow down, you're a king, you have to look decent."
Xiao Qi Dao: "King is for those people to see … "Delicious."
He raised his head, "Big Brother An Zheng, are you going out?"
An Zheng nodded his head: "I need to make a trip to the Buddhist Kingdom in the Western Regions."
The Xiao Qi Dao whispered into An Zheng's ears and said, "Bring the Divisions back … The Tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tai-tao had no competitors, and would dominate the others. "When the Buddhist Sect comes from the east, the Dao Sect will be safer."
An Zheng's heart was moved... Xiao Qi Dao has really grown up.
But was it really a good thing for the Buddhist Sect to come from the east?
Chapter 299 - Western Dinner
Heavenly Awakening Sect
The newly-recruited disciples were so cute that people couldn't help but want to pinch their little faces. They were all wearing the sky-blue robes of the new disciples, and the way they lined up and walked hand in hand was very lovable. As one of the teachers, Lang Jing brought these little disciples, whose average age was not even six, forward. Letting him take these little fellows, he seemed to be full of energy. It was as if he was holding a piece of priceless porcelain, afraid of accidentally breaking it.
This was the first batch of disciples recruited by the Heavenly Awakening Sect, and this was the difference between the school and the sect. The academy wouldn't start teaching children from such a young age. The youngest student they recruited was at least fourteen years old. The school pursued short-termism, and children had to get good grades in the next few years. The bigger the sect, the further it pursued. From the age of four to five, his cultivation realm had already become eye-catching by the time he passed his teens.
"Lord Sect Master."
The group of children greeted An Zheng seriously, with a childish voice. The way they greeted from the bottom of their bodies looked very cute, yet very solemn.
An Zheng endured it and did not laugh, trying his best to look more serious.
An Zheng was very happy in his heart. This was the beginning of a different life. When he was at Da Xi, he chose another life. If he were to open his own sect, then he might already be a grandmaster in Da Xi and would live longer.
However, An Zheng did not regret the choice he had made back then. At that time, An Zheng was even tougher than he was now.
After all the children had been taken away by their masters, the Nine Star Arena finally became deserted.
An Zheng looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, he sneaked his way to the side of the Nine Star Arena. Standing there, not feeling reassured, he looked around before nervously placing his hand on the Nine Star Arena.
He still remembered back at the Mount Cang Man's martial academy, when An Zheng also sneakily came to see his talent in cultivation. At that time, An Zheng was already half a star.
After experiencing so much, a few years later, An Zheng wanted to know just how much of a change he made.
He placed his palms on the Nine Star Arena, his palms so tense that they were covered in sweat.
However, after a while, there was no reaction at all from the Nine Star Terrace. An Zheng raised his hand to take a look, and was a little puzzled.
Someone at the side handed over a handkerchief, "For the Nine Star Arena test, you must clean your hands. You have too much sweat on your hands, so you can't detect the power of your bloodline. Wipe it off."
"Thank you."
An Zheng subconsciously said thanks, took the handkerchief and wiped it, then froze. Turning his head, he saw Qu Liuxi, Gu Qianye, and Du Shoushou standing there, each of them holding a yaksha umbrella.
"Come on."
Du Shoushou danced while moving forward, "Come on, hurt me, hurry up hero, use your innate skill to hurt me."
Gu Qianye jumped onto the Nine Star Arena and squatted down to encourage An Zheng. "Come quickly, I've always wanted to know what your Inherent Skill is, hurry up and let us see."
She rubbed her hands together, looking as if she were staring at a pot of delicious food, her eyes filled with stars.
Qu Liuxi stood there and said with a smile, "Everyone is curious."
An Zheng said in a serious tone: "What are you looking at, what's there to look at? As gentlemen of the sect, why are all of you so lacking in dignity? "As the Sect Leader, I need to give all of you a lesson …"
Du Shoushou grabbed his hand and pressed it down, "Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Pressing his palm on the Nine Star Platform, the red line began to move, and the stars began to light up. Even the quiet and tranquil Qu Liuxi came over and looked nervously at the Nine Star Terrace. Du Shoushou's eyes opened even wider as he opened his mouth wide.
Seeing that the red line kept soaring, Gu Qianye clenched her two little fists, and her big eyes blinked as she roared out, as if she was talking about the Nine Star Arena.
One star, two stars, three stars …
An Zheng didn't feel any embarrassment anymore. At this moment, his consoling words were that his rotten wife would see her parentage sooner or later … When the red line lit up the fifth star, An Zheng had already started to laugh. That was five stars, half a star back then. Other than himself, no one could feel this joy so clearly.
Six stars!
Seven stars!
Du Shoushou's mouth was already about to reach his ears: "Damn, a genius is a genius, he's convinced. fat grandpa is completely convinced. "
Gu Qianye said, "Awesome … "What the heck!"
Qu Liuxi pursed her lips and laughed.
But the red line only paused for a moment at the seventh star's position, and then it began to move again as if in a gasp, and then it struck out with a high, powerful blow. He rushed all the way to 9 stars!
9 stars completely lit up!
An Zheng felt his heart thump thump thump thump thump thump, he felt that his life was really too fulfilling … From the half star from before to the nine star, this huge turnaround was inconceivable even to him.
 
; Qu Liuxi smiled and said: "Mn … Formidable. "
Gu Qianye jumped down from the Nine Star Arena and hung them on An Zheng's back, "I want to eat something delicious! Drink! They were going to fall! "Big fish and big meat!"
An Zheng also laughed, "Eat, eat, eat! Just eat whatever you want! "
good old man Cat was originally lazing in the sun on top of the Jade-Eyed Golden Eyes Beast's head in the distance, but was also attracted by the liveliness. It lazily raised its claws and pointed towards An Zheng's direction. The second ranked Jade-eyed Golden Eyes Beast immediately stood up and walked over, it was so docile that it could not believe that it was a beast. Like a cat riding on a cow, he arrived at the Nine Star Arena. After taking a look, he lazily laid down, as if he didn't feel excited at all.
In the morning, An Zheng and the others did not do anything urgent. The four of them chatted and laughed while they strolled around the market, buying a lot of delicious food. Then, An Zheng and Qu Liuxi began to wash the vegetables and cook. Du Shoushou and Gu Qianye squatted on the ground and drew their map and played Go. One of them picked up a small rock and the other a small branch, they played extremely happily. However, as long as Du Shoushou won, he would definitely be beaten up.
Qu Liuxi washed vegetables, fish and meat. An Zheng was responsible for cooking, cooking, and roasting the meat.
Two hours later, the table was filled with delicious dishes.
Mu Qidao walked over with a sniff, then waved his hand for the guards to withdraw before halting: "I want to eat!"
Du Shoushou curled his lips, "Be more dignified, you're a king."
Mu Qidao placed a piece of meat into his mouth and even licked the soup on the corner of his mouth, "Your Majesty? Eating food personally cooked by Big Brother An Zheng, and not exchanging it between the two kings? "
Du Shoushou: "This flattery doesn't leak any trace."
Gu Qianye: "Don't eat them all!"
She pressed Xiao Qi Dao down on the table and forcefully took the meat that was almost at her mouth and stuffed it into her mouth. Bada! Bada! Bada! Delicious!
An Zheng asked the fatty to bring Oldman Huo, Gu Chaotong, and Gu Chaotong over to sit. The wine cup was filled to the brim, and the aroma of wine assaulted his nostrils.
An Zheng raised his wine cup: "I will be leaving for a while, and I won't announce it to the public, but all of us need to be clear about this. This time, Fatty and my two friends from outside the sect came with me. Since the Divisions Mage and Qi Tian had matters to attend to and had to leave for the time being, they would probably be back before nightfall. When will they be back, and when will we be leaving? "
An Zheng raised his wine cup towards Old Huo: "Oldman Huo, I have been trying to say something that I didn't dare to say. Today, I will use this wine to strengthen my courage … Oldman Huo, in our hearts, you are our biological grandfather. "
An Zheng raised his head and drained the wine.
Old Huo sighed: "It's fine if you say that, but if I were to reply with a good grandson … It was a bit awkward. But I really think of you as my own children. My son died early, and it was you who gave me the joy of a family I could never have had again. "You're all filial to me, and you all respect me. This is a great feeling, so I can't help but want to live a few more years, a few more years."
"Drink."
Old Huo raised his wine cup and was about to drink it when Gu Qianye snatched the wine cup over and did it herself. Qu Liuxi poured a cup of tea into his hand smoothly.
After Gu Qianye finished the wine, she laughed: "Master, that's good, who knew you would actually drink? In the last war, you drank a pot of wine and coughed for half a month. "
Old Huo laughed dryly as he held the teacup in his hand: "That's more awkward …"
Everyone laughed until their backs were against each other. Xiao Qi Dao placed the wine cup in front of Old Huo's nose and said, "Smell it, it will satisfy your appetite even if you smell it."
When he took back the wine cup, Gu Qianye once again snatched it away.
Xiao Qi Dao looked at his empty hand. "I … I understand your awkwardness. "
Gu Qianye drank two cups of wine consecutively, her cheeks already slightly flushed red. She poured another cup for herself: "Surnamed An, there is something Xiao Liu'er doesn't want to say, let me say it … To be honest, if you want to save that woman, let alone the Xiao Liu'er, even I would be unhappy. She cared about the man she liked and travelled thousands of miles to save other women. Who would want to be a fool? But we can't say, especially the Xiao Liu'er … "
After she finished speaking, she reacted and her face instantly flushed red: "I'm spouting nonsense, I already said it in's stead … I don't care what you were up to, I don't care what you had to do with that beautiful fairy-like beauty. Because Xiao Liu'er and I... Because the Xiao Liu'er trusts you. But you have to remember, saving others is repaying a favor, just a favor. If anything happens between you and that woman, I will bring Xiao Liu'er away! "
She drained her glass. "Will you come back soon?"
An Zheng vigorously nodded his head: "Alright!"
Gu Qianye asked again: "Can we not go?"
"No."
"Forget it, pretend I didn't ask."
Gu Qianye tore off a piece of meat and put it in her mouth: "Saving people is saving people, if you encounter danger don't force yourself. You went to save people, not to throw away your life. "
An Zheng nodded his head again, changing Gu Qianye's wine into tea. "Since you're so good-looking, I'll listen to whatever you say."
Gu Qianye's face reddened. She lay on the table and stomped her feet, "You motherf * cking … "Tease me!"
An Zheng stood up and said, "Xiao Yezi is right, I've remembered everything. I'm here to repay the favor, I must return the favor. Saving someone was not a matter of suicide, nor would he allow himself to die. If he really couldn't save her, he would just give up. This is something I promised, I won't forget it. "
He looked at the Xiao Qi Dao, "Qi Dao, you have already grown up and are still a king. If anything happens to your two big sisters and the Oldman Huo, what will you do? "
Xiao Qi Dao stood up, "I am the king, I have the heart to protect the nation, can't I protect the family?"
"Man!"
Du Shoushou raised his wine cup and gave it to Xiao Qi Dao: "Cheers!"
Before Gu Qianye could react, Xiao Qi Dao drained the alcohol in one gulp. "Heh heh, that's great!"
An Zheng looked at everyone, "I'll be quick for four months, and slow for half a year. I'll definitely rush back. When I come back, I must start this festive season that I haven't had a chance to start for so long! "
Everyone thought that he was going to make some bold claims, but it turned out to be the Food Festival …
Gu Qianye sat up straight, her eyes gleaming: "That's good … "That's good …"
That night, An Zheng, Du Shoushou, the Divisions Mage and the other three left the Fanggu under the night sky, heading towards the Western Region's Buddha Country.
Standing on the roof, Gu Qianye asked Qu Liuxi: "If you don't go, are you afraid that he will feel awkward?"
Qu Liuxi nodded her head, "That's right, I'll be going. He will do things with her hands and feet tied, and will instead be in danger."
Gu Qianye shrugged her shoulders. "I knew it, that's why I didn't go. I gave you an excuse. You, you don't know how to feel. "
She jumped down from the roof and said, "I'm going to watch those kids read. I'll kiss whoever is cute. I won't let any of them go. Hahahaha."
Qu Liuxi looked at Gu Qianye's back and muttered to herself. "But, you're more bitter in heart than me."
Chapter 300 - You Are All My Slaves Now
An Zheng asked: "What does the Western Region Buddha Country look like?"
Qi Tian replied: "A territory created by a bunch of extremely poor people, what do you think it would look like? It's like being a nouveau riche. Other than being golden, it's just golden. "
The Divisions Mage who spoke at the same time as Qi Tian replied said, "That is a pure land, peaceful and peaceful."
Du Shoushou looked at the two of them, then curled his lips: "I'd rather believe what Qi Tian had said."
Divisions: "He is only talking about appearances, but I am talking about the inside. Mourning speaks not only of appearances but also of the heart. If the heart is at peace, then the world is at peace. "
"Then what you mean is, there are no bad people in Buddha?"
"Yes."
"There is? Then why is it so peaceful? "
"Because there are some people who are not at peace in their hearts, and cannot deny that there are many people who are at peace in their hearts."
Qi Tian prodded Du Shoushou: "Don't listen to his nonsense. Back then, I was coaxed by a fellow who looked exactly like him to the point that I especially yearned for Buddha. Only when he actually went there did he find out that the legends were all lies. "The so-called peace is when all the citizens offer their money to build the statue of Buddha into a golden body, and then everyone becomes as poor as everyone else, so it is a happy and harmonious state."
Du Shoushou: "It's a brilliant plan."
Qi Tian: "I can feel the stifled feeling in your heart … It reminded me of back when I was traveling westward. I had a monk and a fat man by my side. That fatty is similar to you, he's as sultry as you. "
Du Shoushou: "The dark night gave you black eyes, but you are indeed blind. fat grandpa, my entire body is filled with purity, do you know what my nickname in the martial arts world is? It's called Little White Lotus! "
"Pretty boy?" The entire martial arts world of your State of Yan is blind. "
"Bai Lian!"
Du Shoushou shot a glance at Qi Tian before running over to An Zheng's side. "Why do I feel like these two aren't reliable? A powerful blow rang out with a 'dang dang dang' sound, as if the heavens and the earth were his boss. "
