Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

"Not long after you set out, chaos broke out in Yunzhou. The situation developed extremely quickly, just like a sudden storm, catching everyone off guard."

Zhao Jinghuan looked solemn, his eyes full of worry, he shook his head slightly and continued.

"All of this stems from the conspiracy of the Beast God Cult. They have been planning for a long time, and it is definitely not something that can be done overnight. This hidden danger has been quietly buried in Yunzhou for a long time, and it can be said to be a long-standing problem.

"The Beast God Cult is extremely secretive. For many years, it has been secretly accumulating strength, infiltrating every corner of Yunzhou, winning over various forces, and bewitching people. They are ambitious and want to subvert the existing order of Yunzhou and bring the entire Yunzhou under their control."

"On weekdays, they hid in the dark, secretly observing the changes in the situation, waiting for the right time to launch the rebellion they had been planning for a long time. And this time came without any warning shortly after you left."

"The followers of the Beast God Cult poured out from all directions like a tide. They were armed with weapons and frantically attacked the towns of Yunzhou."

"Wherever they went, they burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil. The once prosperous town was instantly reduced to ruins. The people were displaced and their cries shook the sky. The defenders of Yunzhou fell into chaos and passivity under their sudden attack. For a while, they could not organize an effective resistance."

"At this critical moment, Xu Lingguan stepped forward. It is said that he has led the Qimen to join the team to quell the rebellion."

"The world has only now come to know that there is such a person in Yunzhou who has been hiding all this time. The reputation of Xu Lingguan and the strength of Qimen are like a ray of light in the darkness, giving Yunzhou's people and defenders great hope."

"The disciples of the Qimen Sect all possess unique skills. With their superb forging skills and powerful fighting ability, they have played a huge role on the battlefield."

"The various magical weapons they made provided strong support to the riot suppression team, allowing the defenders to gradually gain the upper hand in the confrontation with the Beast God Cult."

Seeing Jiang Yue asking with surprise on his face, Zhao Jinghuan sighed heavily, with a hint of helplessness and emotion in his voice, and slowly told him everything.

His eyes showed both concern about the situation in Yunzhou and admiration for Xu Chong.

"Although Xu Lingguan has retired, when Yunzhou was facing a critical moment of life and death, he stood up without hesitation and took on the responsibility of quelling the rebellion."

"His responsibility and courage are truly admirable. I just hope they can put down this rebellion as soon as possible and restore Yunzhou to its former peace."

Hearing this, Jiang Yue's expression changed subtly in an instant. His originally calm face frowned slightly, and a trace of solemnity and concern flashed in his eyes.

His heart was like a lake with a stone thrown into it, causing ripples to appear and all kinds of thoughts raced through his mind.

I just left Yunzhou, and the Beast God Cult is so impatient to start a rebellion...

The timing was so strange, as if the long-hidden dark conspiracy was deliberately revealed after he left.

Jiang Yue couldn't help but feel a complex emotion in his heart, including anger at the evil deeds of the Beast God Cult and worry about the situation in Yunzhou.

He was well aware of the evil and cruelty of the Beast God Cult. He didn't know how much disaster this sudden rebellion would bring to the people of Yunzhou, and what kind of pain and torture those innocent people would suffer.

There was a hint of realization in Jiang Yue's eyes, and he suddenly remembered something.

No wonder when I arrived in Qianzhou, my master did not contact me through my senior brother Yuan Gang!

In his memory, every time his master went on a long journey, he would convey messages through Brother Yuan Gang, ask about his situation, and give him some guidance and suggestions.

But this time, since he left Yunzhou, he has not received any news from his master.

He originally thought that it was because of the long distance that the information was difficult to transmit, or that his master was too busy to care about it. But now, he finally understood the reason.

I guess he didn't pass on the message because he was afraid of causing unnecessary worries.

The master has always been very caring towards him and knows his character well. If he knew that such a major change had happened in Yunzhou, he would be extremely worried and even rush back at all costs.

The master certainly didn't want him to be distracted at the critical moment of his practice and affect his future, so he chose to hide it all.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yue felt a warm current in his heart. He was deeply moved by his master's good intentions. But at the same time, he also felt guilty for not being able to help his master and the people when Yunzhou was in danger.

Jiang Yue clenched his hands unconsciously, his knuckles turned white from the force, and his eyes revealed a firm determination.

Fortunately, everything is still in time. After learning about the changes in Yunzhou, Jiang Yue was filled with anxiety.

But he quickly calmed himself down and realized that this was not the time to panic.

His eyes were determined, as if he had found the direction to move forward in the darkness, and his confidence and calmness returned to him.

He has returned from the Immortal Ruins!
Today, his own strength has achieved a qualitative leap, and those realms that were once out of reach are no longer so unattainable in his eyes.

Not only that, Jiang Yue has an extremely firm confidence in his heart. Now his strength is enough to influence the war situation in a state. He knows that he is no longer the young man who just started out and was ignorant.

During his experience in the Ruins of Immortals and Gods, he witnessed all kinds of wonders and powerful forces in the world, and also honed a tenacious heart.

His eyes revealed an unquestionable dominance, as if the whole world was under his control.

Even if there is a powerful king in front of him, he has the confidence to retreat safely!

The powerful kings were at the top of the pyramid of the Great Zhou Dynasty. They possessed the power to destroy the heavens and the earth, and their every move could cause great changes in the world. When ordinary people faced the powerful kings, they would often tremble in fear and not even have the courage to resist.

But Jiang Yue is different. Relying on the inheritance he obtained in the Immortal Ruins and his own efforts, he has mastered many unique combat skills and life-saving methods.

He believed that as long as he used it properly, even when facing the powerful pressure from a king-level warrior, he would be able to find a glimmer of hope in desperate situations and escape unscathed.

As for the rank of marquis... Jiang Yue narrowed his eyes slightly, with a hint of indignation flashing in his eyes.

According to his estimation, his current strength is already better than most of the marquises. Although the marquises also have a good status and strength in the Great Zhou, in Jiang Yue's view, they are no longer his opponents.

Jiang Yue took a deep breath and calmed down his inner excitement. He knew that the most important thing at this moment was to rush back to Yunzhou as soon as possible to help his master and the people quell the rebellion.

"I was planning to tell you later. After all, you just returned from the Immortal God Ruins and have gone through so many hardships and obstacles. You are exhausted both physically and mentally. It would be best for you to recuperate for a while first."

Zhao Jinghuan looked at Jiang Yue with gentle eyes and some concern, and spoke earnestly.

"During this period of time, you can rest here and recuperate, so as to adjust your body and condition to the best."

"After the ceremony of crowning the king is over, the Patrol Department will also promote you, and you will be able to return home in glory. "With your current strength and what you have gained in the Immortal God Ruins, your future is limitless. This ceremony of crowning the king is a big deal. If you can be promoted after this, you will not only gain a higher status and power, but also more resources and help for your future cultivation."

Zhao Jinghuan's words were full of expectations for Jiang Yue. He believed that this young man in front of him would be able to carve out a place for himself in the world.

Seeing that Jiang Yue's expression became solemn and his eyes revealed anxiety and worry after hearing about Yunzhou's affairs, Zhao Jinghuan naturally knew what he was worried about.

He sighed softly and explained, "I know you are concerned about the situation in Yunzhou and your family and the people at home. But you have to understand that if you go back rashly at this moment, you may not be able to help, but will put yourself in danger.

"You just came back from the Immortal God Ruins, and you still need time to consolidate your strength. Only when you are fully prepared can you play the greatest role on the battlefield."

"Thank you for your kindness, General Zhao."

Jiang Yue bowed slightly to express his gratitude to Zhao Jinghuan. Then he raised his head, expressionless but with a firm look in his eyes, and slowly said,

"But Jiang's family is in Yunzhou after all, where I have relatives and friends, and where I grew up. Now that Yunzhou has suffered such a great disaster and the people are in dire straits, how can I not worry.

"Every moment of delay could result in more innocent lives being harmed. I cannot watch them suffer. Even if there are mountains of swords and seas of fire ahead, I must go back."

Jiang Yue's words were powerful, full of determination and firmness.

His eyes revealed an unquestionable determination, as if nothing could stop him from returning to Yunzhou.

He does not attach much importance to the rewards and honors.

But if you miss some things because of this, you will probably regret it for the rest of your life.

Although this is his second life as a human, he grew up and made his fortune in Qing County, so he has a hometown.

Besides, my master and family are all in Yunzhou, so how can I feel at ease if I don’t go back?

Beast God Cult...

These three words kept echoing in Jiang Yue's mind, and every time they echoed, it was like a heavy hammer, hitting his heart hard. This notorious cult organization, in order to achieve its evil goals, used all means and committed countless heinous crimes.

Now, they have caused such a big storm in Yunzhou, bringing endless pain and disaster to countless people. When Jiang Yue thought of those innocent people who were persecuted by the Beast God Cult, their families were broken up and they were displaced, the anger in his heart was like a surging tide, burning uncontrollably.

"Since I already know the situation in Yunzhou, Jiang cannot stay here for even a moment."

Jiang Yue's eyes revealed a firm determination, and his voice was low and powerful, as if every word contained endless power.

"I'm sorry that I will be absent from the ceremony of crowning the king. Even if I don't get the reward, I must go back to Yunzhou!"

His words were decisive, without any hesitation or retreat, and carried an unquestionable power, as if declaring his determination to the whole world.

Zhao Jinghuan shook his head gently, his eyes full of helplessness, and sighed deeply. He could naturally understand Jiang Yue's mentality. In the heart of this young man, his love for his hometown and his responsibility to the people had already surpassed everything.

Knowing that the journey to Yunzhou was a dangerous one, and that there might be countless difficulties and obstacles waiting for him, and he might even face a life-and-death test, he still chose to embark on this journey without hesitation.

This kind of courage and responsibility of "knowing there is a tiger in the mountain and still going there" made Zhao Jinghuan both admire and worry.

Obviously, going to Yunzhou at this time is not the best choice. Jiang Yue has just returned from the Immortal God Ruins. Although his strength has been greatly improved, he still needs time to consolidate and settle.

Moreover, the ceremony of enthroning the king is a rare opportunity for him. If he misses it, it may have a certain impact on his future development.

However, how could the boy's passion stop here! His burning heart had already flown to the distant Yunzhou, where there were his relatives and friends, and the homeland and people he wanted to protect.

Zhao Jinghuan looked at Jiang Yue silently, with mixed feelings in his heart. He knew that he could not stop the boy's decision, nor could he change his mind.

He could only pray silently in his heart, hoping that Jiang Yue would be safe and sound and help Yunzhou overcome this crisis. "Since you have made up your mind, I will not stop you anymore." Zhao Jinghuan's voice was filled with helplessness and worry.

"But you must be careful and always put your own safety first. If you encounter danger, don't be stubborn and retreat if you can." He patted Jiang Yue's shoulder, his eyes full of concern and instructions.

"Once the Sky Patrol is free, perhaps they will be able to lead their troops to quell the rebellion. Then we may have a chance to meet again."

Jiang Yue nodded gently and said, "I can go through the dangerous Immortal God Ruins, how can the Beast God Cult... stop me!"

"Perhaps, we don't need to trouble the capital to send troops. Someone will stand up to the turmoil in Yunzhou."

Jiang Yue did not hesitate or delay at all. He quickly reached out his hand and steadily picked up the three selected martial arts secret books.

These three classic books, which embody countless wisdoms of spiritual practice, seem to emit a unique light in his hands, carrying his infinite expectations for the improvement of his future strength.

Then, he carefully picked up the Star-Eating Iron that exuded a strange aura. Although this evil object concealed great danger, in Jiang Yue's eyes, it was the key to forging his own magic weapon and improving his strength, and it possessed irreplaceable value.

He held these things tightly in both hands and walked towards the door of the treasure house with big strides. Along the way, his eyes were firm and sharp, and he had only one thought in his mind, which was to rush back to Yunzhou as soon as possible and contribute his strength to quell the rebellion of the Beast God Cult.

Arriving at the door of the treasury, Jiang Yue simply completed the registration procedures according to the regulations.

His movements were swift and skillful, and he completed each step meticulously without any panic due to his inner anxiety.

After completing the registration, Jiang Yue turned around and his eyes fell on Zhao Jinghuan not far away.

He bowed slightly, with a hint of respect on his face, and said: "General Zhao, I am grateful for your care this time. The situation in Yunzhou is critical now, and I must leave immediately. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely repay your kindness."

Zhao Jinghuan looked at the young and motivated boy in front of him, and couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

He also bowed in return, attracting a lot of attention.

Jiang Yue nodded, thanked Zhao Jinghuan again, then turned around and left the treasure house with firm steps. His figure looked particularly tall and straight in the sunlight, like an unshakable mountain.
