Chapter 176 City Lord
The Killing Battalion of the Shenfu Army returned to guard the Huanglongfu City, and Bai Yuan, a true disciple of Wanjun Peak, became the new commander of the Killing Battalion.

It is roughly equivalent to Bai Yuan becoming the lord of Huanglongfu City.

Yu Hui did not replace Bai Yuan as the commander of the Wei Zi Camp, so Bai Yuan is now the commander of two camps, the first person in the Shenfu Army.

None of the commanders of the 36th Battalion of the Shenfu Army had any objection to this.

This is not just because Bai Yuan is a true disciple, but also because his record is comparable to that of the peak master. He is qualified enough to take the position of Yuhui Commander.

Sect leader Murong Tian had no objection to this.

The matter of Fei Shi Peak had already reached his ears, but he acted as if he had not heard about the death of a true disciple in the sect.

But sometimes no response is the best response.

"Xu Siwan, the deputy commander of the Shazi Camp, pays respect to Commander Bai."

A lean man bumped his fists towards Bai Yuan and saluted.

"Deputy General Xu, you're welcome."

Bai Yuan waved his hand.

This Deputy General Xu was Commander Xu three days ago. Yu Hui let Bai Yuan take charge of the Killing Camp, and Commander Xu was unwilling to leave, so Yu Hui simply demoted him to deputy general.

Xu Siwan is the first person who chooses to be a good commander instead of being a deputy general.

"Commander Bai, please send more people to keep an eye on those Lingzhou thieves outside the city."

There was a vicious look in Xu Siwan's eyes.

Before he came to Huanglong Mansion, he had fought a fierce battle with the Lingzhou Army who were disguised as members of the Tianxin Sect. Although he killed all those people, the Shazi Camp also lost a lot of soldiers.

Xu Siwan's hatred for the Lingzhou Army has penetrated deep into his bones, and he wishes to kill all the Lingzhou Army outside the city.

But whether in the underworld or in the imperial court, one can do whatever he wants, but he cannot completely reveal his true colors.

Just like the general of Lingzhou, even though the Lingzhou army sent to Huanglong Mansion was no less than a thousand people and everyone in Huanglong Mansion knew about it, they still had to pretend to be members of the Demon Sect and would not openly kill their way into Huanglong Mansion.

The same is true for the Shenfu Sect. Although Murong Tian personally led troops to suppress it, the reason he gave to the outside world was also to wipe out the remnants of the Demon Sect.

Neither side tore off the last bit of face.

After all, no one can say whether things will change until the end.

It is not uncommon for people to be fighting each other one moment and become brothers the next.

Always leave some room for relaxation.

Shenfumen and Lingzhou have been living like this for thousands of years.

"Need not."

Bai Yuan waved his hand.

General Zhaowu has been staying in the military camp outside the city. Unless Xu Siwan is sent over to monitor him, it would be useless for anyone else to go there.

"Yes."

Xu Siwan has the awareness of being a subordinate and obeys Bai Yuan's words.

Of course, the main reason is that Bai Yuan is stronger than him, so he is so well-behaved. Otherwise, he crawled out of a pile of dead bodies, so how could he be a good person?

There are tents connected together outside the city of Huanglongfu, which is quite spectacular.

On the surface, this Lingzhou army was very low-key when it arrived in Huanglongfu. It neither entered the city to cause chaos nor interfered in political affairs.

But secretly it was the transit station of Lingzhou Army in Huanglongfu.

The Lingzhou troops that suddenly appeared from all over Huanglongfu did not grow wings, so of course they needed someone to cover them.

In General Zhaowu’s tent.

Ji Chang looked at the old man in front of him with interest and a playful smile.

"Master Shi Feng, how are you these days?"

The old man standing not far from Ji Chang was none other than the head of Fei Shi Peak of Shenfu Sect, Shi Baishan.

Shi Baishan's face was gloomy.

The reason why he appeared here was because Ji Chang used the information brought to him by the Lingzhou army's insider in Shenfu Gate.

Lingzhou Army can help him deal with Bai Yuan
Ji Chang sat leisurely on the tiger-skin chair, as if he had already decided on the master of Shi Feng in front of him.

He knew exactly what happened on Fei Shi Peak of the Divine Mansion that day.

Shi Baishan's current situation is extremely embarrassing. The battle with Bai Yuan directly made the Shi family lose face, and after Shi Ye's death, the Shi family could not find a successor.

With Bai Yuan's terrifying speed of advancement, it won't be long before he becomes the second Dong Wanjun. He might even become stronger than Dong Wanjun and become the sect leader directly.

At that time, the Shi family will definitely be held accountable.

Shi Baishan is certainly not willing to sit and wait for death, and will definitely try every means to break the impasse.

The leader of Shenfu Sect, Murong Tiandu, has already acquiesced to Bai Yuan's actions, so no one in Shenfu Sect would be willing to join forces with Shi Baishan.

Ji Chang saw this opportunity and put a little pressure on Shi Baishan, and the other party really couldn't wait to come to him.

Shi Baishan naturally knew what General Zhaowu was thinking.

But he had no other choice.
As long as they join forces with the Lingzhou Army to kill Bai Yuan, the Shi family will still be the Shi family, and he will still be the master of Fei Shi Peak.

Shi Baishan's face was gloomy. Although he knew that what he did was tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, it was still better than waiting to die.

"How are you going to do that?"

He asked Xiang Jichang.

Ji Chang grinned and said, "There's no rush for this."

"I heard that there is a map of the Shenfu Army's deployment in the Shenfu Gate."

His voice changed.

Shi Baishan's expression became even uglier. It was obvious that Ji Chang wanted to use him to obtain intelligence about the Shenfu Army. This defense map was confidential, and even in the Shenfu Sect, only Sect Leader Murong Tian and the Masters of the Thirteen Peaks were qualified to know it.

But once he handed the defense map to Ji Chang, it would be tantamount to treason.

He just wanted to kill Bai Yuan and was not planning to lead the Shi family to betray Shenfu Sect.

Ji Chang narrowed his eyes slightly, but did not urge him. Since he had already lured Shi Baishan here, he would definitely try to drag the head of the Shenfu Sect into the water.

Just as Shi Baishan's eyes flickered with struggle——

Ji Chang spoke at the right time: "The general has joined forces with the Changshou Palace, and the masters of the Changshou Palace will come to Huanglong Mansion soon."

Longevity Palace!
When Shi Baishan heard the words "Changshou Palace", a look of shock appeared on his face.

He naturally knew the name of Changshou Palace.

The Changshou Palace is the strongest force in Lingzhou. It is a behemoth entrenched in Lingzhou. Its power is even greater than that of the Shenfu Gate. It is said that the power of the palace master is even stronger than that of the general.

It is said that the first master of Changshou Palace was the favorite general of Emperor Xuanyang Taizu, who followed Emperor Taizu in his campaigns and was credited with following the emperor.

After the world was settled, that general was in charge of guarding Lingzhou and became the first general of Lingzhou.

Later, the general simply founded his own sect and built the Changshou Palace.

Because of that general, Changshou Palace had a close relationship with the royal family and had frequent contacts with several ministers in the court.

Therefore, the generals of all dynasties dared to take action against the Shenfu Gate, but did not dare to harbor any ill intentions towards the Changshou Palace.

Because the connections in Changshou Palace are too strong.

All along, Changshou Palace had no intention of getting involved in the struggle between Lingzhou and Shenfumen, but unexpectedly, it would go against its norm this time.

Shi Baishan's eyes flashed.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

Changshou Palace is far stronger than Shenfu Sect. Once Changshou Palace chooses to take action, Shenfu Sect, which is supported only by its leader Murong Tian, ​​will be no match for Lingzhou Army and Changshou Palace.

Instead of waiting for the sect to be destroyed, it is better to find another way out.

Seeing Shi Baishan agreed, Ji Chang nodded with satisfaction: "Master Shi Feng, the general will not treat you unfairly."

Shi Baishan was not a rookie in the martial arts world, so he knew that there was no sincerity in Ji Chang's words.

Although I will have to live under someone else's roof in the future, it is better than being killed directly.

Shi Baishan sighed in his heart.

He came to see Ji Chang this time just to join forces to kill Bai Yuan, but he didn't expect that he would actually betray Shenfu Sect in the end.

It is true that things are unpredictable and the development of things has far exceeded his expectations.

Shi Baishan's eyes became fierce.

Then it's the other way around!

Shenfu Gate, the main peak.

The headmaster's hall.

There were six people sitting in the hall, almost all the powerful men who were still left in the Shenfu Sect.

The figure at the highest point was not the sect leader Murong Tian, ​​but his disciple Murong Jiujiang.

Except for the sect leader Murong Tian, ​​the other leaders of the Thirteen Peaks either went north to the Zhenbei Army or followed Murong Tian to various places in Huanglong Prefecture to quell the rebellion. There were only three people left in the Shenfu Sect.

Bai Yuan was also among them.

The position that originally belonged to Old Man Dong was taken over by him.

There are Shi Baishan, the master of Fei Shi Peak, Liu Donghai, the master of Taibai Peak, Ruan Xiulua, the master of Qianzhu Peak. Originally, there should have been a master of Chunlei Peak, but the master of Chunlei Peak was killed by old man Dong, and the true disciple was killed by Bai Yuan, so there is no one left.

In addition to the peak master, there are two supreme elders, Ge Zhen and Murong Qing.

Of course, Murong Jiujiang did not act arrogantly and directly sit on the seat of the head of the sect. Instead, he stood beside the golden chair.

"Everyone, this happened suddenly, and the sect master has not returned yet, so I will be in charge today."

Murong Jiujiang put his hands behind his back and looked down at everyone, looking quite like a sect leader.

Sect leader Murong Tian is not here, so as the sect leader's first disciple, it is in accordance with the rules for him to take charge of important matters.

Moreover, Murong Jiujiang's strength is very strong, so naturally no one has any objection.

"Nephew Murong, what happened?"

Liu Donghai, the head of Taibai Peak, spoke first.

He is the most senior person among those present, so it is reasonable for him to ask the questions.

The others also showed curious expressions.

Murong Jiujiang spoke slowly: "The deputy palace master of Changshou Palace came with the disciples of Changshou Palace, and wanted to learn from our sect."

Hearing this, everyone frowned.

Everyone knows that the Shenfu Sect and the Lingzhou Army are fighting fiercely right now. It seems that the Changshou Palace sent people here at this time with ill intentions.

But the Shenfu Sect cannot avoid fighting. If it does so, the Shenfu Sect will lose all its face.

Shi Baishan, who was sitting at the outermost part, lowered his head and his expression could not be seen.

But there was already a storm in his heart.

He didn't expect that Ji Chang's words were actually true, and Changshou Palace was really going to take action against Shenfu Gate.

Although he agreed to Ji Chang's request to steal the defense map that day, he did not take any action and just watched in secret.

After all, Ji Chang was just empty talk, maybe he was just using Changshou Palace to trick him.

But Shi Baishan never expected that Changshou Palace would actually join forces with the general and prefect of Lingzhou.

The Shenfu Sect had a hard time dealing with just the Lingzhou Army alone. If the Changshou Palace came along, the entire sect would probably be wiped out soon.

Shi Baishan was somewhat glad of his decision.

If they join the Lingzhou Army now, they can at least save their lives. Otherwise, the Shi family will never escape the fate of being exterminated.

Thousands of years ago, the Shi family defected to the Shenfu Sect from a small clan that was about to be exterminated. Now, they have moved to Lingzhou, which can be considered a traditional skill.

In the face of life and death, trust and integrity are lighter than paper.
