I picked up skill fragments in the demon world.

Chapter 438 Why be respectful at first and rude later?
Hearing what Mr. Wuliu said, King Pingbian's eyes flickered: "You go and handle this matter."

Mr. Wuliu nodded, and suddenly said meaningfully: "There is still a big trouble in the north, we need to eliminate it as soon as possible."

King Pingbian knew that Mr. Wuliu was talking about the army of the Jianxiusi. The 50,000-strong army of the Jianxiusi was like a knife stuck in the north, making him dare not act rashly.

"After the demon army enters the pass, tell them to first solve the trouble left by the Inspection Office." Pingbian Wangdao.

After hearing what King Pingbian said, Mr. Wuliu said, "I have an idea. There are countless waters accumulated here. Why don't you use this water to drown the 50,000 troops? Then use this water to sweep across the north. By then, countless people will be displaced and their lives will be miserable. With a little guidance, we can raise countless anti-king armies. At that time, we can join forces with the demon army and invade the land of China together to expand our territory and take the opportunity to swallow up the surrounding vassal states..."

Mr. Wuliu's plan is extremely vicious. The impact of flooding the north will be fatal. By then, countless people will be displaced and become rioters. In order to survive, they will have to be coerced by Huang Tiandao and the Hepingbian Palace to invade the surrounding vassal states.

When this plan came out, even King Pingbian took a breath of cold air, and a hint of hesitation appeared in his eyes: "The Northland is our foundation. Isn't this the same as cutting off our own foundation?"

"Your Majesty, our Northland has reached the current situation. What foundation does it have? Once the demon tribe enters the pass and the imperial court sends troops to fight, once the flames of war in the Northland burn, everything will be destroyed. We might as well take the initiative and perhaps we can still seek a glimmer of hope in adversity. Our territory is in chaos, and then we can influence the surrounding vassal states and involve them. When everyone is in chaos, with our strength, we will most likely be able to annex the surrounding vassal states. At that time, the major vassal states will provide support for our Northland. If the chaos continues like this and the flames of war burn until the whole victory, we may not be able to open up a new situation by then."

King Pingbian sighed slightly: "Has the situation deteriorated to this point?"

“In order to transform into a dragon and walk away like a dragon, we have tried our best. And when the momentum for transformation into a dragon and walking away like a dragon was gathering, countless water vapor gathered in the North. If our ancestor had succeeded in transforming into a dragon, with our ancestor directing the water vapor, it would not be a big deal. But now that our ancestor has failed to transform into a dragon, the gathered water vapor will burst out and bite back the fate of the entire North. The North will be submerged by floods in the future, and we have no choice.” Mr. Wuliu smiled bitterly.

King Pingbian was somewhat disinterested and waved his hand feebly: "Go ahead!"

"Yes!"

Mr. Wuliu said respectfully.

While the two were talking, another scene happened here in Zhang Chen's place.

As Zhang Chen pulled the chain, Zhang Shicheng's dragon soul was pulled over, and a pair of eyes glared at Zhang Chen: "Ant, why are you here again! Let me go quickly, or I will make you suffer."

"You want me to look at it calmly? The ancestor himself is in great danger, how can you ask me to look at it calmly?" Zhang Chen said with a smile.

Hearing Zhang Chen's words, veins popped up on Zhang Shicheng's forehead, and there was a hint of embarrassment in his eyes. After all, he was an old fellow who had lived for hundreds of years. After weighing the pros and cons, he finally chose to bow his head: "Boy, there is no irreconcilable hatred between you and me, so why bother to fight me to death? If you have any requests, just ask, and I, the ancestor, will satisfy you one by one. Glory and wealth? Or a beautiful wife and concubines? Or a natural treasure? As long as you ask, I will fulfill them all!"

Zhang Chen's face darkened when he heard what Zhang Shicheng said: "No hatred? We have no hatred, but you and I have a blood feud that will last forever! If you don't die, I will not be at peace!"

Zhang Chen did not hesitate and directly told all the grievances between himself and the Pingbian Palace. Especially when he talked about the two times he saved Zhang Xiaohua's life, Zhang Chen's eyes turned red. After finishing his narration, Zhang Chen glared at Zhang Shicheng's soul: "Tell me, is there any hatred between me and your Pingbian Palace? Can this hatred be resolved?"

Zhang Shicheng's face turned green when he heard Zhang Chen's words. It turned out that this was the reason why Zhang Chen had repeatedly opposed him. Even the last time his body was destroyed, it was all because his unworthy descendants wanted to take revenge on Zhang Chen and wanted to kill him with corvée labor, so they took the initiative to push it over.

Hundreds of years of planning and several generations of management were destroyed because of such a trivial matter. Zhang Shicheng felt aggrieved and his mentality was about to explode.

"Unfilial son! Unfilial son!" Zhang Shicheng gnashed his teeth in hatred, his soul was emitting fluctuations, and he showed some signs of madness.

He failed to transform into a dragon and was destroyed by Zhang Chen twice. He really met his nemesis. "Boy, as long as you let me go, I am willing to stand up for you. I can tie that unfilial son in front of you and let you cut him into pieces. There is no hatred between you and me, so why do we have such a big grudge? You hooked my soul here, but you can't do anything to it. After seven days, my soul will become a ghost and haunt you. When that time comes, it will never leave you. You will also be in trouble, right?" Zhang Shicheng looked at Zhang Chen, and his voice and attitude began to soften, but it contained a vague threat.

Of course Zhang Chen understood his threat. What he meant was that if he turned into a wronged spirit, with his powerful cultivation, he could kill everyone around him.

"Since I dare to hook your soul here, how could I not be prepared?" Zhang Chen showed a cold smile on his face and pointed to the cave behind him: "Can you sense the energy in that cave?"

Zhang Shicheng's dragon soul changed color in anger. Even Xie Lingyun's Yin Spirit standing outside the cave could sense the flames in the Bagua furnace, let alone a strong man like him?
"Does it have to be this way?" Zhang Shicheng looked very unhappy at this time.

Zhang Chen did not answer Zhang Shicheng's words, but walked slowly into the stone cave. Zhang Shicheng saw that the dragon soul wanted to escape and return to his body. However, he had only taken a few steps when the sound of chains came from the dark like a magic spell, and then pulled Zhang Shicheng's soul into the cave.

Zhang Shicheng struggled desperately, but he could not break the chains at all. He could only shout helplessly: "No! Absolutely not! You can't do this! Let's talk it out. Even if I have to be your slave, I will accept it. You can't do this to the extreme."

Faced with the life-and-death crisis, Zhang Shicheng's attitude finally softened. He is now an eleventh-level soul. Even if he has lost his physical body, he can be transformed into an eleventh-level spiritual cultivator. That is also a great master higher than the Yang God. He hasn't lived enough, so why would he be willing to die?

Even after cultivating to his level, there is still a chance for him to reshape his flesh and blood. How could he be willing to die?
Zhang Chen looked at Zhang Shicheng and saw the servility on his face. His eyes were filled with emotion. No matter how strong you are, if you fall into such a situation, you are no different from an ordinary person.

"Don't blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame your Pingbian Palace for provoking me. But don't be afraid. I won't refine your soul to pieces. I am now refining a magic weapon. I will refine your soul into my magic weapon. You and my magic weapon will be immortal, and it can be regarded as a continuation in another form." Zhang Chen said with a smile.

When Zhang Shicheng heard this, he was immediately frightened. What did it mean to survive in another way?

Live on! You will be refined into the magic weapon.

"My friend, I am willing to be your slave. I only ask you to spare my life." Zhang Shicheng said humbly.

"I would like to give you a chance to live, but you are too powerful. I can't restrain you at all. What if you use my close ones to threaten me in the future? Wouldn't that be a disaster for me?" Zhang Chen looked at the Bagua furnace in front of him and said to Zhang Shicheng, "Do you want to jump in by yourself, or should I take you in?"

Zhang Shicheng felt the terrifying flames in the Bagua furnace, and seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly straightened his back and was no longer servile. His whole back became stiff: "Hahaha! Hahaha! Don't even think about deceiving me, kid. I have seen through your plan."

Zhang Chen was confused by Zhang Shicheng's wild laughter: "What do you mean?"

Zhang Shicheng pointed at the Bagua furnace and said, "The flames in this furnace are so fierce that you can't bear it at all. You can only pull my soul in, but you can't control it. If you want my soul to enter the Bagua furnace, you have to enter the furnace first and then pull me in. I don't believe that you have such ability to jump into the furnace and then pull my soul out."

Zhang Shicheng's voice was full of pride. Seeing that Zhang Chen couldn't do anything to him, his attitude suddenly changed. Zhang Chen couldn't do anything to him, so he should be the one who was anxious. Wasn't he afraid that he would kill everyone he saw in a rage?
If my physical body is cut off, my soul will be attached to Zhang Chen. I am barefoot, so why should I be afraid of Zhang Chen who is wearing shoes?
The two looked at each other. Zhang Chen looked at Zhang Shicheng's face, which was respectful at first but arrogant later, and a series of inexplicable thoughts flashed through his mind.

"Boy, if you kneel down on the ground now, kowtow to me three times and nine times, and then let my soul go, I will spare your life. Otherwise, I will haunt you and kill everyone you see, including all your relatives and friends. You decide for yourself." Zhang Shicheng's voice was full of pride. "Not only that, I also want you to submit to me and become my guardian general, otherwise I will never let you go."

Speaking of this, Zhang Shicheng began to get excited. After all, if he had control over Zhang Chen's evil methods, it would be a completely different world.
