Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 136 New official takes office
"The Jade-faced Fox Qingjiu got the Dragon Binding Rope from Yuqing Jiu County?!"

"A large number of martial arts masters are heading to the nine counties of Yuqing?"

Jiang Yue frowned.

Originally, he planned to kill the three demons, pig, cow and dog, after dealing with the people in the martial arts world. After that, Xia Qi would lead the demons in the water and almost put an end to the flood in the nine counties of Yuqing.

But now it seems that he has forgotten the most important person, the Jade-faced Fox Qingjiu!

The appearance of the Beast God Cult must be a big conspiracy.

"The Beast God Cult was severely damaged, but the Jade-faced Fox Qingjiu did not hide away to recuperate, but instead caused trouble in the Nine Counties. This is unreasonable."

"You are still too immature. When things get too complicated, you lose your judgment."

Jiang Yue reflected on himself for a moment and thought carefully about how to deal with the situation. After a while, Jiang Yue spoke.

"Everyone, it is widely rumored that the Jade-faced Fox Qingjiu has obtained the Dragon Binding Rope, and a large number of experts are heading to the Nine Counties."

Jiang Yue said in a deep voice: "There are countless people from the martial arts world, aristocratic families, and masters. Lord Pei will come to the nine counties in person in three days. We need to hold on for three days to control the martial arts world and prevent the Beast God Cult's conspiracy."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the government court changed their expressions drastically.

They were in the Nine Counties, but they had never heard of the Jade-faced Fox Qingjiu getting the Dragon Binding Rope. Who spread the news? Was it true or false?

Yuan Qinghuan said with a serious expression, "Sir, the Dragon Binding Rope is a treasure to everyone. It is even a rare good thing for demons. After all, it is made of real dragon tendons, which has an indescribable temptation to water beasts."

At this point, Yuan Qinghuan sighed and said with emotion: "The nine counties will probably be in chaos. There are countless monsters in the water, and the Beast God Cult is causing chaos on the ground. There are also people in the martial arts world who act recklessly. I am afraid that we can't control the nine counties."

Many officials in Wentang agreed with this and nodded in agreement.

The Dragon Binding Rope is a treasure that will cause commotion and chaos wherever it is placed. This small area of ​​nine counties simply cannot withstand the wanton behavior of so many masters.

There was a lot of discussion in the hall. The officials in the civil hall put forward their views and opinions from time to time, and Jiang Yue nodded frequently. As for the martial arts hall, it was much quieter. None of the small flag officers and captains said anything.

Everyone in the martial arts hall only follows Jiang Yue's lead. They don't think too much and just do whatever Jiang Yue asks them to do. They are completely submissive to Jiang Yue.

hum-

Just as many officials in the Wentang were discussing, the mountain patrol token on Jiang Yue's waist began to flash again.

"General Jiangyue Banner."

Pei Hu's voice sounded: "I will not be able to arrive until three days later. I have ordered a fourth-level expert to come to help. His name is Kang Yuan. He is very powerful. All your actions will be under his command."

"Sir, all actions will be directed by Kang Yuan?"

Jiang Yue asked again.

"Yes, before I arrive at the Nine Counties, Kang Yuan will be in charge of all matters."

"Ok."

Jiang Yue nodded, put away the patrol token, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone, Lord Pei sent a master named Kang Yuan. Kang Yuan will be in charge of all matters in the nine counties in the next three days."

The officials in both the civil and military halls were all stunned.

Jiang Yue stretched himself lazily and said with a smile: "Everyone, please prepare for the reception. When Lord Kang arrives, please call me. I can finally clear my mind and have a good rest after so many days."

After saying this, Jiang Yue stood up and went back to the classroom.

After searching the mountain for three days and then searching the mountain himself, Jiang Yue was almost turned upside down by the Four Ti Peak. He was really exhausted.

After returning to the classroom, Jiang Yue looked at his panel.

【Time: 240 years】

The last time had been completely consumed. Logically, it should have been zero, but in the end it was 240 years.

"It seems that Shrimp Seven is doing well underwater."

Jiang Yue smiled.

All this time came from Xia Qi. In 240 years, he probably had to kill three or four wild beasts to achieve this.

Now he has eighteen corpses of fifth-level shrimp soldiers, which is a sufficient resource. He can complete a furnace in about four hundred years.

"Let's talk about it after you wake up."

Jiang Yue felt extremely tired and sleepy, and soon fell into a deep sleep holding the three-pointed, double-edged sword.

In his dream, Jiang Yue felt that he had come to a white cliff.

A huge yellow bull was staring at him, its eyes as big as copper bells filled with anger.

This suddenly reminded Jiang Yue of the ferocious tiger he had encountered that year. The tiger also appeared in his dream and frequently made threatening remarks.

Could this yellow cow now be the ancestor of those bull monsters that he had killed?
When Jiang Yue was wondering, the yellow bull had already rushed towards him with a roar, and its towering horns were like sharp blades, stabbing towards Jiang Yue's chest.

"This is my dream! I can do whatever I want. Do you still want to kill me in my dream?"

Jiang Yue sneered, and actually transformed into a being with three heads and six arms, with a divine eye between his eyebrows, and started fighting with the big yellow ox.

After just a few moves, the big yellow cow was knocked to the ground, wailing.

A three-pointed, double-edged knife appeared out of thin air in Jiang Yue's hand and he stabbed it towards the big yellow ox's heart.

"Moo-"

The big yellow ox let out a wail, and its dream began to fall apart. Finally, when the tip of the three-pointed, double-edged knife was only an inch away from its heart, the dream was completely shattered.

Jiang Yue woke up from his sleep and smiled coldly.

This is the dream again.

The Beast God Cult didn't know how to change its methods. He had the supernatural power of clear mind. When he fell asleep, he knew that he was in a dream and could do whatever he wanted. No one could kill him in his dream.

"It seems that the three demons, Ox, Dog and Pig, have all colluded with the Beast God Cult. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to use this method of entering dreams."

Jiang Yue smiled.

There are no monsters standing in the forest anymore. Tomorrow he plans to go into the water to help Xia Qi and save some time in the water. Kang Yuan will be there soon anyway, so he doesn't need to be fully responsible for the nine counties for the time being.

Thinking like this, Jiang Yue fell asleep again.
-
I slept until the next morning.

Jiang Yue was awakened by a small flagman under his command, because Kang Yuan had already arrived and was waiting in the yamen court for the civil and military officials to arrive.

Whoosh whoosh—

Jiang Yue stood up, put on his official uniform, fastened his hairpin, and used the white jade dust belt to clean himself.

After doing all this, Jiang Yue put the Qiankun bag on his waist and strode towards the government court.

Tread-tap-

Jiang Yue walked without stopping, and by the time he arrived at the government hall, most of the officials from both the civil and military courts had arrived.

Sitting on the main seat in the main hall of the yamen was a tall man wearing a black official robe, which was also embroidered with eagles and dogs, but there were three cloud patterns on his chest.

If Jiang Yue remembered correctly, the captain had four cloud patterns, while his general flag had two cloud patterns.

It seems that there is an official position between the captain and the general flag.

Jiang Yue strode into the court. Kang Yuan kept his eyes on Jiang Yue until Jiang Yue stood in front of the officials in the martial arts hall. Only then did Kang Yuan retract his gaze.

"Almost everyone is here."

Kang Yuan opened his mouth slowly and said, "I am Kang Yuan, the deputy inspector of Pei Hu, the captain of the Huichun Prefecture Mountain Patrol Division. I have been ordered to take over the nine counties. I also temporarily learned about the situation in the nine counties on the way last night. It is a tough job."

"Where is the head of the Wentang Administration Department?"

Kang Yuan passed by Jiang Yue and looked directly at Lu Yang, asking, "Director of the Political Department, please tell me the situation. How is the nine counties now after Jiang Zongqi's administration?"

Lu Yang looked at Jiang Yue, stepped forward and said, "Lord Kang, General Jiang has rectified the officialdom in the nine counties. All officials who colluded with the demons have been executed, and the elders of the eight major sects have been expelled. The demons in the mountains have also disappeared. The only thing left is to control the water and let the people rebuild their homes."

"Oh?"

Kang Yuan raised his eyebrows, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. The situation in the nine counties was completely beyond his expectations.

It can be said that if it weren't for the Dragon Binding Rope that Jade-faced Fox Qingjiu had come up with, the nine counties would have been governed well soon, and this huge achievement would have fallen directly on Jiang Yue's head.

But that may not be the case now.

"Yeah, the foundation is good."

Kang Yuan praised him, his eyes moving, and he said in a deep voice: "I am in charge of all affairs in the nine counties. My official position will not change for the time being. General Jiang Yue will lead the martial arts hall to assist me in clearing out the demons. Lu Yang will continue to be in charge of the literary hall to manage the affairs of the people. In three days, Lord Pei will take over this place. We just need to play tricks on those people for three days and keep them stable for the time being."

"I obey your command." Everyone said in unison.

"Well, General Jiang, you take everyone in the martial arts hall and send out invitations to invite the people from the eight major sects who were attracted by the dragon binding rope, as well as the people from the major families of Huichun Mansion, to come to the government hall."

Kang Yuan gave another order.

"I humble my position and take orders."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly.

As for the others, their expressions were different, which was quite interesting. After all, Jiang Yue had just done this not long ago, and now Kang Yuan was going to repeat it again. Would there be any difference then?

Is there any difference between what Kang Yuan would do and what Jiang Yue would do?

Both of you adults chose to call people to court, which is really interesting.

"The invitations are written by the Secretary."

Kang Yuan solemnly warned: "Be polite, polite, and polite again. Don't create hatred with the people in the underworld."

"I humble my position and take orders."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly, and soon he received an invitation letter written by the Secretary of State. He left the yamen with several small flags under his command.

The group rode on tall horses and soon left Yuqing County.

"Sir, this Kang Yuan seems to be targeting you."

The little flag with the broken arm was a little dissatisfied.

"Oh? Why do you see it?"

Jiang Yue smiled but didn't smile.

"Sir, he asked Lu Yang directly instead of you. He gave you the dirty work of running errands. This matter should be left to the captain of the police."

The broken-armed flag said indignantly: "What does this guy think of you? I seriously suspect he wants to steal your credit."

"Oh? What do you mean?"

Jiang Yue was riding on the white dragon horse, hurrying on the road, and asked with a smile.

"Sir, the Nine Counties is not an easy job, but after your hard work, the Nine Counties is basically a piece of delicious fat meat. After all, the three demons of dog, cow and pig are gone, and only the demons in the water are left."

The broken-armed flag said, "Although the monsters in the water are difficult to deal with, we have already taken everything from the bronze ruins. After the Dragon Binding Rope incident is over, all that's left is to control the water. Isn't that just picking up merit for free? As for the Dragon Binding Rope incident, he doesn't even need to care about it. He just needs to suppress the death of the people and not report it."

"That's a bad word."

Jiang Yue shook his head and said with a smile: "I have reported everything I did before to Lord Pei Hu. Even if he takes over now, he can't take away my merits."

"What if, by some chance, he wants to kill the adults?!"

Xiao Qi suddenly said this, and realized he was speechless. He quickly slapped himself in the face and said, "Master Jiang, I was overthinking."

"It's okay, don't blame yourself."

Jiang Yue said in a deep voice: "No one can say for sure about this matter. Don't mention it again. Don't say anything that will destroy unity!"

"understand!"

Xiaoqi said respectfully.

The few of them continued on their journey. Jiang Yue grabbed a few martial artists on the road and "inquired" about the situation. He learned that a large number of martial artists and people from various families in Huichun Prefecture had gathered in Taohuawu, Taohua County.

"Taohuawu, let's go to the old place."

Jiang Yue galloped on his horse and asked, "I know the eight major sects, but who are the major families?"

Hearing this, the broken-armed Xiaoqi explained, "Sir, the so-called aristocratic families have many disciples who serve as officials in the court, and are spread across the civil and military halls. They have a complex network of influence and extensive connections. In Huichun Prefecture, there are a total of three families that can be called aristocratic families, namely the Qingyun Wang family, the Bowang Kang family, and the Houli Yue family. These aristocratic families are more difficult to deal with than the martial arts sects in the Jianghu."

"Well, after all, there are many officials in the family. It is really difficult to deal with if one move affects the whole body."

Jiang Yue smiled.

"Your Excellency has a good eye."

The broken-armed flag clasped his hands and added, "Kang Yuan is the son of the Bowang Kang family. The Kang family has done many similar things before, so I have many opinions about them. I hope you will be careful."

"Do not worry."

Jiang Yue nodded.

Tread-tap-

Amid the sound of horse hooves, Jiang Yue brought the small flags to Taohuawu.

There were three cruise ships and countless small boats on Taohuawu, where people were toasting each other and creating a lively scene. Around the entrance to Taojia Village, there were corpses all over the ground. The bodies of black fish that had been eaten till only the skeletons were left were lying on the side, and several people were busy cleaning up the corpses.

The little flag with the broken arm was stunned and felt an extremely strong murderous intent emerging from behind him.

When he looked back again, Jiang Yue's eyes were cold and his face was extremely pale.

Taojia Village, everyone was killed!

Only Tao Qian, whom he had promoted to the yamen, was still alive. As for the big black fish, it was also turned out and its skeleton fell at the entrance of the village.

"This Taojia Village was massacred by demons?"

Jiang Yue, wearing a black official uniform, rode his horse forward to the entrance of Taojia Village and asked the two warriors in formal attire who were cleaning up the corpses.

"what?"

Seeing that Jiang Yue was wearing the uniform of the general flag officer, the warrior stopped looking down on him and explained, "The master ordered him to be killed."

"Your master is."

"Kang's family."

"Why kill someone and desecrate the body?"

Jiang Yue looked carefully and found that the stomachs of these dead villagers had been cut open.

"I can't tell you this."

The hanging warrior smiled.

bass--

With a flash of cold light, the three-pointed, double-edged sword was placed across the warrior's neck. Jiang Yue narrowed his eyes slightly and moved his fingers lightly, and a bloody mark appeared on the warrior's throat.

"Gudong."

“It’s no secret.”

The warrior hurriedly said, "It's all spread now. The Jade-faced Fox couldn't refine the Dragon Binding Rope, so it's temporarily stored in the belly of the big black fish. Everyone is looking for it. We heard that the people of Taojia Village boasted that they ate the offerings to the black fish god. When this spiritual object is not activated, it is as thin as a gossamer thread. No one knows if it has been eaten. That's why we killed people to check whether they have eaten the Dragon Binding Rope by mistake."

"I see."

Jiang Yue nodded slightly, shook the tip of the knife, and the warrior's head fell to the ground.

The warriors around him who were helping him deal with the corpses were horrified and wanted to scream, but they were also easily killed by Jiang Yue.

After doing all this, Jiang Yue took out the mountain patrol token and reported to Pei Hu.

"Master Pei Hu, how should we deal with the Bowang Kang family who massacred the entire village?"

"Don't ask me, ask your immediate superior Kang Yuan."

"understood."

Jiang Yue took a deep breath and sent a message to Kang Yuan again.

"Master Kang, when delivering the letter, I encountered the Kang family of Bowang slaughtering the entire village of Taojia Village. Should I take them back according to the law, or what?"

"What law?! Can you afford to offend them? It's just one village, just let them go and pretend you didn't see anything. Oh, you didn't report it to Pei Hu, did you?"

"Sir, Lord Pei said that everything will be reported to you, so I did not contact Lord Pei."

Jiang Yue whispered.

"That's great. Jiang Yue, you have to know how to make choices. If the Beast God Cult wipes out all the people in the nine counties because of Tao Village, we can't bear the responsibility."

Kang Yuan's voice sounded: "It is important to unite the eight martial arts sects and the three great families to capture the Jade-faced Fox Qing Jiucai."
