Wu Gengji, I will become Zi Yu's apprentice at the beginning! ! !

The handsome, tall, and somewhat unruly man snorted coldly and said with anger in his eyes, "Damn the Gods! So many bloodstones and millions of slaves can't even satisfy their greedy appetite! I, the king of the Great Shang, will make the Gods pay a heavy price for this!"

That’s right, this handsome man is the nominally strongest ruler of the human race—the King of the Great Shang Kingdom, Zishou.

At this time, a general in armor stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, it has been more than four years since you ordered us to prepare for war. Now, we have sufficient food and grass, horses, armor, and soldiers have undergone intensive training. May I ask your Majesty, when can we declare war on the Gods?"

King Shang frowned slightly, sighed deeply, and said slowly: "At present, these conditions are not enough to compete with the gods. We still need to wait for some time. When the divine envoy Xuancha arrives, I will confront the orders of the gods he brings and resist his rule!"

In the hall, civil officials and military officers shouted in unison: "The king is wise!"

The King of Shang shook his head slightly, sighed and said: "Everything I did was only for mankind, so that the people of the Shang Kingdom would no longer suffer from the oppression of the gods. I really can't be called wise. Well, my dear ministers, please leave." After that, he turned and left the court.

The ministers shouted in unison: "Farewell, Your Majesty!" The sound resounded throughout the palace. The King of Shang, with a dignified look, slowly left the hall surrounded by a group of eunuchs and palace maids. Seeing this, the ministers also left one after another, leaving only the empty and silent hall.

In the bedroom of the Shang king, just after he changed his clothes, a young and beautiful woman suddenly appeared before him. She was about twenty years old, wearing green clothes, with a pretty face, as beautiful as a fairy, which made people feel pity and love.

The king of Shang signaled the eunuchs and palace maids around him to leave. These people were very smart and immediately understood what the king meant. They quickly left the room and gently closed the door of the bedroom.

The woman asked softly, "How was the court meeting today?" The King of Shang was silent for a moment, then slowly replied, "Xinyue Fox, I have made up my mind to confront the Gods. The Gods may send envoys to urge us to increase ore production and demand the capture of more slaves. But I will never let them get their wish. When the time comes, I will lead the people of the Great Shang Kingdom to confront the Gods!"

The woman responded gently: "Didn't you agree to call me Daji? Why did you change it to Heart Moon Fox?" As soon as she finished speaking, the King of Shang suddenly fell silent and stopped talking. For a moment, the atmosphere in the bedroom became a little solemn.

Xinyuehu suddenly spoke up and said, "I recognize your intention to fight against the gods and liberate the slaves, but the gods are more powerful than you can imagine. Challenging them with your current strength is like hitting a rock with an egg. Not only will you not be able to defeat them, but you will anger the gods and bring more suffering and oppression to the people of Shang."

After hearing this, the King of Shang was silent for a while, then suddenly burst into laughter, and then said confidently: "I naturally have a way to fight against the gods!"

Upon hearing this, Xin Yuehu couldn't help but shout out in surprise: "Zishou, you actually have a way to fight against the gods? Tell me now!"

The King of Shang smiled slightly and said mysteriously, "Just follow me and you will know." After that, he turned and walked out of the bedroom.

Although Xinyuehu was full of doubts, she followed without hesitation.

The King of Shang walked out of the palace with firm steps and without hesitation, and Heart Moon Fox followed closely behind him. They passed through the palace courtyard and came to the royal stable not far away. The King of Shang was agile and easily climbed onto the horse, then reached out to Heart Moon Fox and gently pulled her onto the horse's back. Heart Moon Fox was a little flustered, but she had full trust in the King of Shang, so she obediently clung to his broad chest.

Afterwards, they left the palace together, and the sound of horse hooves echoed in the streets of Chaoge City. Soon, they arrived outside an abandoned palace. There were two guards waiting at the door. When they saw the King of Shang and the Queen, they immediately opened the door respectfully. The King of Shang rode his horse and slowly drove into the abandoned palace.

After entering the palace, the King of Shang carefully dismounted from his horse and gently carried Heart Moon Fox off the horse. Then, he smiled and said to Heart Moon Fox, "Follow me." After that, he turned and walked forward, and Heart Moon Fox followed his steps silently.

The two walked into the abandoned hall, and the King of Shang skillfully triggered a hidden mechanism. After a slight noise, the floor of the hall slowly cracked, revealing a mysterious underground palace entrance. The King of Shang whispered to Xinyuehu, "The method I mentioned is down there, follow me." His words revealed a sense of confidence and expectation.

A hint of surprise flashed across Heart Moon Fox's eyes, but she did not retreat, and followed the King of Shang closely into the underground palace. The underground palace was filled with an old atmosphere, and a faint light flickered on the walls. The King of Shang led Heart Moon Fox along a long and wide passage.

Zishou held Xinyuehu's hand tightly and walked forward cautiously. They passed through a long and dark passage, climbed dozens of steep stone steps, and finally arrived at the bottom of the underground palace.

In the very center of the underground palace, Daji was surprised to see a tall wooden rack with a set of brightly colored red and black armor on it, and two sharp swords flashing red hanging beside it.

Daji had sharp eyes and could tell at a glance that these were not ordinary things. She concentrated her mind and used the power of the Abyss Realm to explore the mystery. In an instant, she felt an extremely powerful power of the Primordial Realm, which continuously flowed out of the armor.

This primitive and pure power shocked Daji's heart, and she realized that this set of armor and the two swords must contain great potential and secrets. It might be some kind of ancient creature.

On the other side, in the early morning of the next day, when the sky was just turning pale, Zi Yu knocked on the door gently, and then said in a calm tone: "In half an incense stick of time, go to the desert eight hundred feet south of the inn. I will teach you the art of Qi refining there. If it takes more than this time, there is no need to come again." After that, Zi Yu turned around and left without hesitation.

After hearing this, Wang Hun didn't hesitate at all. He quickly put on his clothes, rushed out of the inn as fast as he could, and rushed towards the desert. When he arrived at the desert, he found Zi Yu standing there quietly, as if he had merged into the surrounding environment.

Wang Hun walked quickly to Zi Yu and said respectfully, "Master, I'm here."

Zi Yu looked at Wang Hun in front of him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect Wang Hun to come so quickly, and he was dressed neatly, obviously he had already made preparations. From the time he left home till now, not even half an incense stick of time had passed. Zi Yu was secretly happy, thinking that he had picked up a treasure and met a rare good seedling.
