As the Styx River moved, he also sent greetings to Jieyin and Zhunti!
After all, he, the Styx River, was not a team killer. This time, he would make the Three Pure Ones suffer.
Seeing that they had also acted, Jieyin and Zhunti paid a great price to revive their disciples whose physical bodies had been destroyed. This battle was the final battle, and Jieyin and Zhunti had also made their final preparations!
As for Taiqing Laozi, who had returned, he checked the luck of Yin Shang. His grand-disciple was quite good. For now, he was diligent and did not disappoint Xuan Du's teachings!
As for the current occurrences like the phoenix singing in Xiqi, Taiqing Laozi scornfully dismissed them. It was obvious that it was the doing of that brat Haotian, but if Xiqi was to fulfill its destiny, it would require strength!
The gods under Haotian were truly pathetic, not to mention Taiqing Laozi looked down on them. Even if there were a few Golden Immortals, they were useless. Look at Yin Shang now; Tongtian's disciples and grandchildren were all here earning merit, including those at the Daluo realm!
Even if these disciples were to fail in the end, he, a Hunyuan, could still intervene. In the Great Desolation, no amount of schemes and tricks could compare to the power of a strong fist!
At this moment, the Three Demons of Xuanyuan Tomb arrived outside Chaoge. However, upon seeing the magnificent Chaoge City, they dared not approach. After all, they were still in their demon forms, and casually approaching places protected by great fortune would result in a backlash!
"Eldest Sister, it seems we must shed our mortal form and transform into humans to enter!" said the Nine-Headed Pheasant Demon!
The Jade Bone Pipa Demon also nodded repeatedly. That's right; just going like this would be no different from seeking death!
The thousand-year-old fox looked around and said, "Our Empress ordered us to go and disrupt the fortune of Yin Shang. Only by taking refuge in the palace will we have a chance. Let us first inquire about the famous beauties of Yin Shang!"
Thus, the three demons began their actions. Soon, they met again. The thousand-year-old fox spoke first: "The Marquis of Jizhou, Su Hu, has a young daughter named Daji, who is a famous beauty!"
"I also found out, it's Daji!" said the Nine-Headed Pheasant Demon!
Only the Jade Bone Pipa Demon did not inquire nearby. Instead, she went near Chentang Pass and saw the majestic Li Jing. She was somewhat moved by worldly affections and said, "Sisters, my little sister wants to go to Chentang Pass. There is a commander there named Li Jing, who is heroic and extraordinary. If I can persuade him to rebel against Yin Shang, then Yin Shang's fortune will also decline!"
The thousand-year-old fox demon nodded. This was also good. She said, "Alright, sister, be careful. We will contact each other later!"
Afterward, the Jade Bone Pipa Demon went to Chentang Pass!
The thousand-year-old fox demon, on the other hand, arrived at Jizhou and quickly found Su Hu's residence. She used a secret method to devour Daji's soul, and her primordial spirit detached, merging with Daji's physical body. Without anyone knowing, she became Daji!
As for the Nine-Headed Pheasant Demon, Daji told her to first possess a maidservant by her side. Once they entered the palace of Chaoge, she could act opportunistically!
One day, Su Hu returned home. After finishing his business in Jizhou, Su Hu received an order for all the feudal lords to go to Chaoge. After all, this was a common occurrence! Moreover, during the year of the grand court assembly, all the feudal lords had to go to Chaoge to meet the King, otherwise, people would suspect them of harboring rebellious intentions.
Su Hu mentioned his plan to go to Chaoge during dinner!
The young daughter Daji, who had been quiet all along, spoke up and said, "Father, I have heard people say that the King is heroic and extraordinary, with a distinguished demeanor, and is a famous sage ruler. Your daughter wishes to marry the King!" After all, a few days ago, Su Hu had mentioned arranging a marriage for her. As Daji herself, she would not have any objections, but now that the thousand-year-old fox demon had possessed her, she naturally wanted to find a way to enter the palace!
Su Hu frowned. Since ancient times, the imperial family had been heartless, especially the inner palace, which was filled with struggles for fame, profit, and favor. He, the Marquis of Jizhou, did not want his daughter to fall into such a struggle!
Of course, Di Xin at this time could be considered a rare benevolent ruler. Su Hu also agreed with this point, as Su Hu himself was someone who detested evil and loved righteousness, with a fiery temper, and was upright and honest!
"My daughter, have you thought it through? The inner palace is full of filth, and your father cannot bear to see you fall into it!" Su Hu said!
"Father, the King is a rare wise ruler. Daji admires him and does not wish to marry anyone else!" Daji said resolutely!
Su Hu was helpless. He discussed it with his wife. After all, Daji had been very obedient since she was young. This time, she was so determined that he agreed. After all, in Su Hu's opinion, Di Xin was indeed a rare and wise ruler!
Afterward, Su Hu took Su Daji and headed towards Chaoge!
Currently, Yin Shang had four great feudal lords: Marquis of the East, Jiang Huan Chu; Marquis of the South, E Chong Yu; Marquis of the West, Ji Chang; and Marquis of the North, Chong Hou Hu.
The eight hundred feudal lords of the realm all respected these four great feudal lords!
Among them, Jiang Huan Chu was Di Xin's father-in-law, and his daughter, Queen Jiang, was Di Xin's legitimate wife!
Marquis of the South, E Chong Yu, was also known for his virtue. Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, was also praised as a wise and virtuous person, and he was proficient in the Pre-Heaven Bagua, which evolved into the Post-Heaven sixty-four Bagua!
As for the Marquis of the North, Chong Hou Hu, he was sinister and extremely brutal, thus the other three feudal lords maintained a certain distance from him!
Outside Chaoge City, no troops were allowed to enter. It was the feudal lords themselves who entered Chaoge to meet the King!
On this day, during the grand court assembly, Di Xin sat at the head of the hall and looked at the officials below. He said, "Now that all eight hundred feudal lords are present, the barbarian tribes of the East have dared to raise an army in rebellion. Grand Tutor Wen led troops to suppress them earlier, but the Eastern Yi seem to have the assistance of a powerful expert, which has held back the Grand Tutor. Do you have any strategies?"
The eight hundred feudal lords all looked towards the four great feudal lords, as most of them took orders from the four great feudal lords!
Marquis of the North, Chong Hou Hu, immediately said, "Your Majesty, your humble servant is willing to go!"
Di Xin glanced at Chong Hou Hu and secretly shook his head. He knew Chong Hou Hu's character. Although loyal, he was very brutal and not a benevolent person!
At the same time, Di Xin pondered. His teacher had told him some time ago that the Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, might rebel. His teacher was the most senior disciple of a sage and possessed extraordinary strength. This involved a great calamity, and he should act according to the situation!
However, Ji Chang was known as a wise and virtuous person in Xiqi. He had always been honest and had never done anything out of line. He could not possibly kill Ji Chang for no reason. Doing so would be truly foolish! Once he gave the opponents an excuse, they would have a legitimate reason to send troops, and he would be at a disadvantage!
"Marquis of the West, you are known for your virtue. Are you willing to share my worries?" Seeing Ji Chang's absent-minded look, Di Xin directly asked!
Suddenly hearing Di Xin call him, Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, quickly stepped forward and bowed, "Your humble servant is willing to go!"
Since Di Xin had spoken, Ji Chang had no reason to refuse, but he was puzzled. In the past, such matters were usually entrusted to Marquis of the East, Jiang Huan Chu, or Chong Hou Hu. After all, this fellow was a bloodthirsty brute, very suitable for the task!
"Good, my beloved minister, you shall depart immediately to assist the Grand Tutor in battle!" Di Xin immediately said!
Marquis of the West, Ji Chang, repeatedly agreed!
After the court assembly, everyone left Chaoge in an orderly manner. However, Su Hu did not leave. Instead, he sought a private audience with Di Xin!
Di Xin was puzzled. Why did Su Hu want to see him? After all, Su Hu was a straightforward person, and to be honest, Di Xin liked him quite a bit. He was a loyal minister!
"Your humble servant, Su Hu, pays his respects to the King!" Su Hu immediately bowed!
Di Xin exempted Su Hu from his bow and asked, "What is the matter that brings you to see me, my beloved minister?"
Su Hu was a little embarrassed. After all, this matter seemed a bit obsequious, as if he were trying to curry favor with the King. However, his daughter's mind was made up, so he could only come!
