On the Avenue.

Chapter 503: East Factory's Merit
Chen Tang turned around and saw that the person who came was the eunuch Feng Tianhuan, the supervisor of the East Factory. Eunuch Feng used to sit in a wheelchair, but this time he was not sitting in a wheelchair. His two legs were intact and he walked briskly.

Chen Tang said, "It turned out to be Lord Feng. What nonsense are you talking about, Lord Feng? My Chen family has been loyal for three generations, how could we commit treason?"

His void realm was slowly changing, and could transform into the Xuanwei Divine Sword at any time to fight to the death with Eunuch Feng.

"Feng Tianhuan is also a top expert. It's hard to say whether I can kill him in a short time."

Chen Tang's eyes flickered as he considered the timing of his move, "But it's not necessary to use the Fu Shen Tian Ji."

Eunuch Feng seemed to sense his aura and smiled, "Master Chen, we have no ill intentions. We came here just to find a place for the East Factory to gain a foothold. The court has been abandoned for a long time, and Xijing has not been established yet. I don't think it will be established. It has been so long since the disaster ended, and the fifty provinces are in chaos. The people are eager for change. It is time for King Chen Zhen to rise!"

Chen Tang interrupted him and shook his head, saying, "The Xinxiang Imperial Capital does not need the East Factory."

Eunuch Feng didn't understand what he meant, so he smiled and said, "The East Factory can monitor the whole world for the real king, monitor the civil and military officials, gather intelligence from all over the country for the real king, and prevent trouble before it happens! Moreover, the real king's harem also needs eunuchs to take care of it. Lord Chen, give the poor man a chance."

He pursed his lips and said loudly, "Master Chen, your father Chen Yin started from scratch. You were born as the son of the Minister of Rites. But I am different. I was sold to the palace when I was seven years old. My master castrated me personally. He said..."

He spoke in a thin, sharp voice: "Tianhuan, we poor people have too few opportunities to succeed. Being a eunuch is one of the few opportunities. As long as you stop being a man, you can have a future, you can survive, you can practice, become a master, you can succeed, become an official, hold power, and give your parents and brothers and sisters a way to live. All of these are obtained by removing that thing, it's worth it!"

His voice was trembling: "Master Chen, we eunuchs don't have many desires. We treat the True King sincerely and are willing to fight for him! Master Chen, please give us poor people a way to live! We eunuchs can do anything for the True King!"

Chen Tang shook his head and said, "The imperial capital does not need eunuchs."

Eunuch Feng felt a little disappointed.

Chen Tang said: "What the emperor needs is people with integrity, who can monitor all officials and audit their achievements and sins. What he needs is people who can understand the sentiments and opinions of the people, know how to use people, know the movements of evil spirits in various places, and monitor the changes and disasters of demons. These people can be men or women, and they don't need to castrate themselves or rely on the powerful. They have schools, can practice since childhood, can become masters, and can also hold power. Their parents and relatives will also be well taken care of. Lord Feng, can your East Factory do these things?"

Eunuch Feng was a little excited: "The East Factory can do it!"

Chen Tang shook his head and said, "But the East Factory doesn't have to be composed of eunuchs."

Eunuch Feng laughed and said, "If they were not desperate, which parents would have the heart to send their children to the palace and cut off their children's penis? But, can the real king really allow children from poor families to have a good future without becoming eunuchs? Lord Chen, will the new dynasty definitely not become the old dynasty?"

Chen Tang's face was solemn: "Our generation won't, but our descendants may. But we will try our best to do everything we can to prevent this from happening."

Eunuch Feng nodded silently, but he was unwilling to give up. "In the harem, there must be some eunuchs, right? The harem is full of palace maids, concubines, and empresses. If we use palace maids, they will easily gossip. The real king must have personal eunuchs."

Chen Tang hesitated and asked, "Why does Lord Feng always want to stuff eunuchs into the palace?"

Eunuch Feng blushed, "To be honest, after the disaster, I returned to my hometown, but the people in the countryside were still living in poverty. Some families couldn't afford to raise children. When they heard that I used to work in the palace, they castrated their children and sent them to me, hoping that after peace came, I would return to the palace and give these children a future."

Chen Tang opened his mouth and said in a hoarse voice: "Is it so difficult?"

Eunuch Feng smiled, squeezing his cheeks together like a wrinkled orange: "Master Chen, it's so tight!"

Chen Tang stood there, motionless, for a long time before he said, "Okay, send them over."

Eunuch Feng was overjoyed and bowed, "I would like to thank Master Chen on their behalf!"

Chen Tang helped him up and said, "Then, I'll have to trouble you, Lord Feng, to find out the news from various places."

Eunuch Feng said, "I dare not. What is Master Chen's plan?"

Chen Tang said: "The most important thing in this battle is not to conquer the world, but to rule the world. It is not difficult to destroy the twelve families. With our current strength, we can clear the Yin and Yang worlds, but the difficulty lies in how to rule the world so that it does not become the same as before. If it is no different from before, then we can only say that we have become evil spirits and we have failed."

He paused, and said, "King Chen Zhen said that if we don't want to become evil spirits, we need to build schools and promote the skills that were previously only practiced by aristocratic families to the countryside and among the poor, so that practice is no longer a privilege for the rich and powerful."

"There must also be rules for selecting talents. Such rules cannot only look at background. Such rules should select people based on their talents and virtues. If people can give full play to their talents and intelligence as much as possible. If there are more and more cultivators, will there still be so many evil spirits in the world? If there are more and more immortals, will the sun and the moon still be covered by flesh and blood?"

He smiled and said, "I think that if the new dynasty continues along this path, the sun and moon will be bright, and the stars will appear. At that time, we will no longer need the true gods from outer space, because there will be real sun and moon hanging in the sky. Lord Feng, I still need to contact other capable ministers. Goodbye!"

Eunuch Feng watched him go away, feeling an inexplicable emotion surging in his heart, like a warm current swirling around his heart.

"Master Chen, will the era you envision really come about?"

After a while, he turned and left, thinking: "Although we eunuchs don't have that thing, we must strive to help others have it!"

He returned to Qingshi Lane and pushed open a black door. Behind the door was the old house of the Feng family. Originally, this lane was where poor people lived. After Eunuch Feng became the eunuch in charge of the seal in Xijing, he paid for the renovation of this place and repaired all the poor people's houses in the alley.

In the old house of the Feng family, several young eunuchs came up to greet them. When they arrived at the front hall, Eunuch Feng sat down and ordered: "You should immediately gather the best men of the East Factory and contact the forces of the East Factory in various places. We will have a true king in Xinzhou, Xiniu."

The eunuchs nodded and left in a hurry.

The East Factory was originally the most important intelligence agency of the imperial court. It had its own methods and could contact East Factory masters from all over the country in a short period of time.

Eunuch Feng closed his eyes and waited quietly.

At dusk, the bluestone alley suddenly became quiet. The originally noisy alley could be heard with the sounds of children playing shuttlecock, women talking by the door, drunk men shouting, and old people coughing. But now, it suddenly became silent.

There was a creaking sound of a door opening, and two tall figures walked in from outside. When they reached the front hall, they knelt down with two thuds.

Eunuch Feng opened his eyes and said with a smile, "Bai Sihai and Yan Shuangtian, you are here as expected."

The two men kneeling on the ground were his adopted sons Bai Sihai and Yan Shuangtian, who were also eunuchs. However, when they were in Xijing, they were dismissed from their posts because they supported the young master in dealing with Chen Shi and Chen Tang.

Bai Sihai kowtowed and said, "Foster father has been very kind to us. I feel very guilty for not being able to take care of him until his death! I am here to apologize!"

He kowtowed heavily, making a loud knocking sound.

Yan Shuangtian also kowtowed beside him, choking with sobs, "We were castrated and sent to the palace to be eunuchs. We had no power or influence, and we relied on our foster father to cultivate us. He taught us to read and write, and taught us to practice. Without our foster father, we wouldn't be where we are today! We are bastards who have repeatedly opposed our foster father. Our consciences have been eaten by dogs!"

He knocked louder than Bai Sihai.

Eunuch Feng looked at them with a smile and said, "You know your mistakes and can correct them. How can I care about the mistakes you made before? After all, you are all my good sons. Get up." Bai Sihai burst into tears and choked up, "My son won't get up! When I think about sending my adoptive father away with my own hands, I feel even more regretful!"

Yan Shuangtian cried, "Foster father, you have been wise all your life, why did you rebel? Today, your sons have no choice but to kill you for the sake of justice!"

Eunuch Feng's smile blossomed like a flower, and he said, "Good son, you are worthy of being our good son."

Bai Sihai wiped away his tears, raised his head and smiled: "That's because my foster father taught me well."

Eunuch Feng sighed and said, "I taught you to read and write, but forgot to teach you how to behave. It's my fault. If you can turn back and come with me to the imperial capital of Xinxiang to assist the True King and work for him, I can still guarantee you wealth and glory."

"My godfather is really old, otherwise why would he be so foolish?"

Yan Shuangtian said, "The imperial court's surname is Zhu, not Chen!"

"It's been six thousand years. Where is the Zhu family?"

Eunuch Feng slammed the table and said angrily, "The thirteen great families are in control of the government, not the Zhu family! The thirteen great families do not have the title of true kings, but they are acting like true kings. This is usurpation and treason!"

He was filled with grief and indignation: "I taught you to read and practice, so that you could limit the power of the Thirteen Families, not to join them in corruption! Did I cut off your balls? Wrong! It was the Thirteen Families! Only by cutting off their balls can we limit their power!"

He was so angry that his body was shaking. He stood up and said, "Bai Sihai, Yan Shuangtian, I know that you two still have power in the East Factory. You can't hide my every move. So I deliberately spread the news to take this opportunity to purge the disobedient people in the East Factory."

Yan Shuangtian and Bai Sihai looked at each other, and they slowly stood up. Bai Sihai was filled with grief and choked up, "Adoptive father, your sons came to kill you for the sake of the East Factory. Don't blame us, adoptive father!"

Before he finished speaking, he attacked boldly!
He practiced the Taiyin Lingbao Sutra, which was passed down by the young master. The way of this skill is to cultivate the five internal organs, imprint various talismans on himself, and practice himself as a magic weapon. He even took black dog blood and burned incense on himself. When practicing to a high level, he can change himself into different magic weapons such as bells, tripods, towers, pens, inkstones, paper, swords, spears, and halberds, which are extremely powerful.

Yan Shuangtian also practiced the Taiyin Lingbao Sutra. The two of them had originally practiced other techniques, but after the young master taught them this technique, the two of them focused on practicing the Taiyin Lingbao Sutra.

Bai Sihai leaped up and turned into a huge cauldron in mid-air. The space inside the cauldron was a vast void. The sun and the moon rose and fell in the cauldron, and the starlight was thick. All kinds of mysterious talisman patterns appeared on the wall of the cauldron, as if gods were standing on the wall of the cauldron.

The cauldron was several dozen feet tall, whirring and spinning, and it attacked Eunuch Feng with great power. The power of the cauldron spread out, and the houses around it cracked and shattered, and the ground cracked, and everything was about to be turned into dust.

Eunuch Feng paused and released his own void realm, which immediately covered the cauldron and Yan Shuangtian.

The big cauldron crashed towards him. Eunuch Feng stretched out his hand and chopped out a green rainbow to block the cauldron. The green rainbow was shattered and Eunuch Feng was shocked and flew backwards. His palm landed lightly on the cauldron. The cauldron shook violently and suddenly changed into a sharp sword. The sword light flashed and pointed directly at the joints of Eunuch Feng's body. His swordsmanship was exquisite and could be compared to the way a butcher Ding butchers an ox.

Eunuch Feng retreated and dodged repeatedly in the air, performing an extremely delicate finger technique, like a woman threading a needle, with a hint of femininity, but he always managed to hit the sword with his finger force at the critical moment.

He avoided the cities and rose higher and higher.

"I come!"

Yan Shuangtian laughed loudly, flew up, and turned into a goose feather knife. The long knife chopped down from the air, and along with the long knife fell thousands of knife lights, just like the goddess Guanyin pouring out the jade bottle, and the knife lights poured down.

Eunuch Feng avoided the silver light of the sword, and saw the long sword turned into a wind fire wheel, hitting his body, knocking and crushing Eunuch Feng away for dozens of miles.

Eunuch Feng had just stood firm and put out the flames on his body when the magic weapons transformed by Bai Sihai and Yan Shuangtian attacked again.

Eunuch Feng used all he had learned in his life step by step, trying his best to resist the attacks from the two men, but the Taiyin Lingbao Sutra was so exquisite that although Eunuch Feng had learned a lot of Taoism, it was no match for the two men's changing forms of magic weapons.

He was injured repeatedly and his physical strength was declining.

"Godfather, you are old!"

The golden bowl transformed by Bai Sihai fell from the sky and was pressed towards Eunuch Feng. Countless golden lights shot out from the bowl, freezing Eunuch Feng's body. Bai Sihai's laughter came from the bowl, "The Thirteen Aristocratic Families are unbreakable. Only by joining them can we ensure that our East Factory will become an evergreen tree! Only then can we guarantee the prosperity and wealth of our eunuchs!"

Eunuch Feng tried his best to fight against the golden bowl. Suddenly, Yan Shuangtian turned into a spear and stabbed at him. The spear shook like a dragon and covered his whole body.

Eunuch Feng was unable to keep his balance against the spear and was sucked into the golden bowl with a whoosh.

The golden bowl immediately turned into a vermilion gourd more than ten feet high, trapping Eunuch Feng inside.

The spear also changed, turning into a furnace and putting the scarlet gourd into the furnace.

The fire in the furnace was blazing, and together they refined Eunuch Feng.

Suddenly, the gourd cried out, "So comfortable, so comfortable! I feel my power is stronger!"

Yan Shuangtian shouted, "You have refined your foster father, so naturally his power has become stronger! Don't refine him completely, leave some for me!"

The gourd that Bai Sihai transformed into said, "It seems that I didn't refine him, but he refined me! It feels good, being sacrificed by my foster father, it feels so good!"

Yan Shuangtian knew something was wrong when he heard this: "The Taiyin Lingbao Sutra has been discovered by my foster father!"

He immediately transformed back into his true form from the alchemy furnace, and was about to abandon Bai Sihai and escape into the air. Just as he transformed, the mouth of the gourd opened, and Eunuch Feng flew out of it in tattered clothes. He raised the gourd with one hand, and the gourd turned into a Mount Tai and pressed down.

Yan Shuangtian tried his best to use his skills to lift the mountain, but suddenly the back of his neck felt tight and was grabbed by Eunuch Feng.

"Two idiots, the young master taught you this technique with bad intentions."

With blood on the corner of his mouth, Eunuch Feng quickly controlled the talismans around him and sneered, "This method refines people into treasures. If you practice it yourself, won't you be controlled by others and become someone else's magic weapon?"

Yan Shuangtian was refined by him, his body twisted and changed involuntarily, turning into a whisk that he held in his hand.

Eunuch Feng shook his whisk, and the Mount Tai in the sky turned into a jade pendant and fell down, which he tied around his waist.

"By accepting two rebellious sons, my East Factory can also make a contribution in the face of the Twelve Aristocratic Families!"
