Zhong Xuan Sheng cautiously stood behind her, not making a sound.
After a long while, Chongxuan addressed Liang, "Jiang Wang is indeed a capable person, but he has his own ideas and principles. He won't be blindly loyal to you and is difficult to control."
"What I need is not loyalty, but a friend," Chong Xuan Sheng said.

>Zhonghuan Chu Liang didn't know what he was thinking, his eyes flashed with a moment of complexity: "Those in power have no friends."
"Jiang Wang is a person of his word, trustworthy and seemingly peaceful, but with pride deep in his bones. If I only took his subordinates, that would be creating enemies for myself. It's better to keep my distance from the beginning."
“Looking at him, he seemed to have feelings for a place like Qingyang Town. How ridiculous!”
"On the contrary, that's what makes it precious!" Chongxuan Sheng said: "Those who are cunning and treacherous, those who are cruel and bloodthirsty, those who are cold-hearted and ruthless, our Chongxuan family has few of these people Qi State and even the whole world have always had plenty of such people! They are everywhere, rampant and disastrous!"
"People like Jiang Wang are truly valuable, they are the ones who earn people's trust. It is not that he needs us, but we need someone who acts with such integrity. Besides him, who else in Qingyang Town can establish a banner and win over the hearts of the people"
"Commander, sometimes I wonder," Chong Xuan Sheng said. "If one day I lose everything and face Chong Xuan Zun with nothing left, who will stand by my side Shi Fourteen would definitely be there, and Jiang Wang should too."
"And besides that, I can't think of a second person who 'should' be there."
“You ask me why I support him so much, this is the reason.”
When Chong Xuan Chuliang heard this, he neither agreed nor disagreed. Instead, he changed the subject and asked, "What do you think of Zhang Yong"
The Fengxian Zhang family massacre was an investigation ordered by the eleventh prince, with Green Plaque Head Catcher Lin Youxie in charge. The perpetrator had inner court cultivation and their identity is unknown.
Zhong Xuan Sheng didn't directly mention Zhang Yong, but instead talked about the Inner Palace expert who exterminated the entire Zhang family of Phoenix Immortal.
"Not having fought the Green Card Heads means he's afraid of exposing his true identity."

Upon being discovered, he immediately committed suicide. This indicates that he had already made up his mind to die.
One person is not afraid of death, but is afraid of exposing their true intentions. This indicates that what they are plotting behind the scenes far outweighs their own life and death.
Above life and death, there's either love or hate. And I lean more towards the latter.
> Zhong Xuan Chu Liang remained silent.
"Zhen Xuan continued, "The ancient martial arts techniques have long been lost, and there are no famous artifacts remaining. Even the family business is barely left! What could the Zhang family of Fengxian County possibly be worth plotting for After much thought, I can only think of this once glorious 'Fengxian Zhang clan.'"
“It seems flawless, but the very nature of this event is a flaw in itself.”
"Let Zhang Yong follow the Eleventh Prince. I don't intend to poach this talent."
Only then did Chong Xuan nod to Zhu Liang, “You have a certain degree of discernment in seeing people and matters. Therefore, your choice allows me some trust. However, defying military law is a serious offense, and you cannot escape punishment. Take one hundred lashes as your due.”
In the army, Chong Xuan dared not act carelessly or smile. He only walked with a serious expression, performing military etiquette, and then lifted the curtain and left.
After breaking through to the Tenglong Realm, one gains the ability to tread on emptiness and fly. This alone greatly expands the combat space and enriches combat choices.
And with a fine technique like the Meteor of Flame, leaving behind the cumbersome Jiang Wang, he returned to Qingyang Town in no time.
Bearing the might of victory, and countering the plague with virtue, the entire Qingyang Town can be said to have a united front between civilians and soldiers.
> There was nothing that Jiang Wang's orders couldn't accomplish smoothly.

Among the things Chong Xuan asked him to do, one was to gather "evidence" of the Four Seas Merchant Alliance's wrongdoing in Jia City. In the current situation, this was incredibly easy.
>
Although Qian, the steward, panicked and fled to the border, he was killed by Chongxuan after the latter discovered news about Longmian. Several extraordinary cultivators from the Four Seas Merchant Alliance also died at Bai Gu Dao's hands, but several martial artists survived.
To be frank, the Four Seas Merchant Alliance has been doing a lot of... unsavory things across all of Yang's territory lately... So-called "evidence" It's practically everywhere you look. You could gather it with your eyes closed.
These trivial matters needn't be elaborated on. In short, the situation in Qingyang Town is settled.
As for the fact that both the previous and current City Lords of Jiacing were killed by Jiang Wang, especially the new City Lord Shi Jing, who was under the command of Rizhao County Magistrate Song Guang, Song Guang's attitude afterward deserves careful consideration. But judging from the current situation, I'm afraid the high-ranking officials of Qi State are all in a state of panic right now and it would be difficult for them to have the time and energy to deal with a small matter like what is happening in Qingyang Town.
While the Bai Gu Dao behind Dragon Face is undoubtedly the most dangerous point, Rabbit Face's surprise attacks played a significant role in Dragon Face's demise. The internal issues within the Bai Gu Dao likely mean their high-end combat power will be difficult to mobilize.
As for the White Bone Dao Saint Master... Chong Xuan Sheng revealed that Chong Xuan Chu Liang had already been paying attention to him.
All in all, there are dangers, of course, but opportunities also exist simultaneously.
Jiang Wang's choice to stay in Qingyang Town wasn't entirely a result of fevered thinking.
In the room ahead, he lay sprawled on the bed with a wistful expression, as if he could lie there for eternity.
When Jiang Wang walked in, he didn't even turn his eyes, only saying with a weak voice: "I thought you wouldn't come back."
Why is that so
Jiang Wang sat on the edge of the bed and idly turned the fruit bowl.
"What's that fat guy's relationship to you Is he your fellow disciple or friend"
Jiang Wang took a pear and after a moment's thought, replied, "Friend, also a partner."
“He should have stopped you.” Xiang Qian’s whole body seemed to only have his mouth that could move: “He doesn’t seem like someone who would be soft-hearted... although he looks harmless.”
Jiang Wang tapped a pear with his finger, and the skin and core fell away by themselves, leaving only clean white flesh in his hand.
“That’s an astute analysis,” he said, taking a bite and letting the juice of the pear run over his tongue. With a hint of satisfaction, he added, “But as I said, I would be back.”
"Oh dear!" Xiang Qian suddenly shouted in anger.
>
"Oh" Jiang Wang said, nibbling on a pear as she looked puzzled.
Shouldn't fruits be given to those who are injured
“Want to eat yourself thin... I'm stopping you” Jiang Wang asked.
He raised his head, as if trying to get up, but then lay back down. "Forget it. The times are corrupt, people's hearts are not good, I've known this for a long time."
"After gingerly consuming three mouthfuls of fruit, he finally said, “Don’t worry. In Qingyang Town, no one should be able to see through your sword formation. I will tell Zhu Biqiong to forget about this, and Zhang Hai will swear blood oaths to it. As for my friends, they won't say a word. The only thing we need to consider is that Tu Mian escaped. Not only will she not cover for you, but she might even exaggerate your abilities."
>
He hesitated for a long time, twisting and turning. It was all because he was worried about his sword formation being exposed.
To be frank, it's quite curious that a sword array could grant a Sky Dragon Realm cultivator the power of an Inner Palace Realm expert.
But about the biggest secret forward, if he didn't want to say it, he would never ask.
As for why their attitudes towards Zhú Bì Qióng and Zhāng Hǎi are different, the reason lies in their performances during the previous battle.
Although Zhang Hai's strength is indeed weak, he went overboard with his actions. Even Dugu Xiao dared to attack Rabbit Face, but Zhang Hai, a cultivator beyond the ordinary, only killed a few guards from Jiacheng City throughout the whole ordeal.
To put it plainly, after this battle, Zhang Hai has lost Jiang Wang's trust and is no longer part of the inner circle. Even if not immediately ostracized, he will gradually be distanced from.
Looking forward for a moment, he thought: "The White Bone Dao might not be able to see through it."
The rabbit-masked warrior's surprise attack on the dragon-masked one revealed internal problems within the Bai Gu Dao. As for the rabbit-masked warrior himself, it was natural for him to conceal the truth and exaggerate his prowess with the flying sword.
...and pinned their hopes on the White Bone Dao's ignorance.
I can only say to this person, running away is what he's used to.
Although he is undeniably strong, he often avoids facing problems head-on.
"You'd better prepare for the worst." Jiang Wang said.
“The worst-case scenario…” Forward closed his eyes and said nothing more.
