Chapter 31 I wonder if Senior would be willing to join my Great Shang Dynasty?
After thinking for a moment, Chen Changsheng raised his eyes and looked Huang Feihu up and down again.
"Judging from Huang Feihu's current age, he should not have been granted the title of King Wucheng yet."
Chen Changsheng secretly made his plans.
It's important to know that the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods has not yet begun.
At this time, the king of the Shang Dynasty should be Di Yi, who was the father of the later King Zhou Di Xin.
Huang Feihu's family was a line of loyal officials for seven generations during the Shang Dynasty.
Even though King Zhou favored Daji and indulged in debauchery, neglecting state affairs, Huang Feihu remained loyal and devoted to protecting him.
Finally, he incurred the wrath of Daji, who plotted to kill his wife, Lady Jia, and his sister, Consort Huang. Only then did he lead his followers to rebel against Chaoge and seek refuge in Xiqi.
After arriving in Xiqi, Huang Feihu gained the favor of King Wu Ji Fa and was granted the title of Founding King Wu Cheng.
"Um?"
Seeing Chen Changsheng staring intently at him, Huang Feihu was momentarily stunned and hesitantly called out:
"A celestial being?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng snapped out of his thoughts and smiled faintly:
"My name is Chen Changsheng, and I am a disciple of Zhao Gongming of the Jie Sect of Mount Emei."
Chen Changsheng revealed his background, his voice calm yet carrying an air of divine authority.
"what?"
Upon hearing this, Huang Feihu exclaimed in great surprise:
"Senior, are you also a disciple of the Jie Sect?"
At this point, Huang Feihu paused briefly, then changed the subject and hurriedly asked:
"Does the senior know Grand Tutor Wen Zhong of the Great Shang Dynasty?"
"He was also a disciple of the Jie Sect."
Wen Zhong is currently the most powerful minister in the Shang Dynasty, holding a high position and great power. He is also one of the most outstanding disciples of the third generation of the Jie Sect.
To Huang Feihu's surprise, the immortal who saved him was also a disciple of the Jie Sect.
After hearing Huang Feihu's words, Chen Changsheng nodded slightly.
He was naturally familiar with Wen Zhong.
This man was a veteran of three dynasties of the Shang Dynasty, a disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother, who secretly taught him the Dragon Whip.
During the reign of King Wen Ding, the grandfather of King Zhou, Wen Zhong followed his teacher's orders and descended the mountain to assist the King of Shang.
To preserve the foundation of the Shang Dynasty, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to campaigns in the east and west, pacifying the land of Chaoge and stabilizing the fate of the Yin Shang Dynasty.
He was an upright and incorruptible man with great prestige, and he was also extremely loyal to the Shang Dynasty.
Even King Zhou respected and feared him.
The proverb says, "Literature is enough to secure the country, and military prowess is enough to pacify it," and the "literature" in this proverb refers to Wen Zhong.
After a moment's thought, Chen Changsheng came to his senses and replied:
"Although I have never met Senior Brother Wen Zhong, I have heard Master mention him."
Wen Zhong was a highly accomplished disciple of the Golden Spirit Mother, who in turn was one of the direct disciples of the Tongtian Sect.
Chen Changsheng was a disciple of Zhao Gongming, the senior disciple of the Jie Sect. According to seniority, he should indeed address Wen Zhong as senior brother.
Upon hearing what Chen Changsheng said, a glint of light flashed in Huang Feihu's eyes, and he quickly said:
"I wonder if you, senior, would be willing to assist my great Shang Dynasty?"
"As long as you are willing, my king will certainly not treat you unfairly."
In Huang Feihu's view, Chen Changsheng was not weak; he could suppress the Five-Colored Divine Ox simply by relying on his own imposing aura.
Besides, he was also a human and a disciple of the Jie Sect, so he was of the same lineage as Wen Zhong, the Grand Tutor of the current dynasty.
Faced with his invitation, Chen Changsheng would most likely accept.
If we could recruit such a celestial being for the Shang Dynasty, that would be the best thing ever.
Chen Changsheng was surprised to hear that Huang Feihu had invited him to join the Great Shang Dynasty.
By joining the Jie Sect, the Shang Dynasty was now bound to him, but it wasn't the right time yet; he still had other things to do.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Changsheng shook his head and politely declined:
"I still believe the matter is not yet settled, so I cannot agree to your request, fellow Daoist."
"but……"
At this point, Chen Changsheng paused, then continued:
"However, when I have time in the future, I will definitely go to Chaoge City to visit my senior brother Wen Zhong and catch up with him."
Seeing Chen Changsheng refuse, Huang Feihu was also taken aback, and a hint of disappointment flashed quickly in the depths of his eyes.
After all, he had witnessed Chen Changsheng's power firsthand.
Just now, after that bull demon transformed into its true form, the Five-Colored Divine Bull, its strength increased greatly, and he almost died tragically at its hands.
Fortunately, Chen Changsheng appeared at the critical moment and saved him.
The mere pressure emanating from Chen Changsheng was enough to suppress the five-colored divine ox.
Such a person, if he were to assist the Shang Dynasty, would surely ensure its continued prosperity.
Huang Feihu originally thought that with so many connections, Chen Changsheng wouldn't refuse.
To my surprise, I was rejected.
Of course, after hearing Chen Changsheng's refusal, Huang Feihu didn't dare to try to persuade him any further.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng's gaze sharpened, and he looked straight at the five-colored divine ox not far away.
At this moment, the five-colored divine ox was still bound by Chen Changsheng's immortal power, heavily pressed to the ground, unable to move at all!
Even so, the Five-Colored Divine Ox had overheard Chen Changsheng's conversation with Huang Feihu perfectly.
"Oh shit!"
"Why am I so unlucky?"
"We've only occupied this Niutou Mountain for a short time, and we've already encountered members of the Jie Sect here!"
"That's a sect founded by sages!"
The five-colored divine ox sighed inwardly.
They had originally planned to lord it over people in Niutou Mountain, a territory inhabited by humans.
Who knew that a celestial being from the Jie Sect would suddenly appear out of nowhere.
Moreover, he was a disciple of Zhao Gongming, the senior disciple of the outer sect of the Jie Sect.
Just as the Five-Colored Divine Ox was howling inwardly, Chen Changsheng waved his hand lightly, and the immortal magic power that had been bestowed upon it instantly dissipated.
Upon discovering that it was no longer bound, the five-colored divine ox immediately transformed into a bull-headed, human-bodied form and began to kowtow and kneel before Chen Changsheng.
"Please, have mercy! I may be staying here, but I'm a vegetarian!"
"I have never harmed any human."
Faced with a Jie Sect immortal like Chen Changsheng, the bull demon naturally couldn't muster the slightest thought of resistance.
"Um?"
"You claim you've never harmed any human beings?"
"But I heard that you kidnapped villagers from many nearby villages?"
Chen Changsheng said coldly.
Earlier in that restaurant, I overheard other diners discussing how there were monsters causing trouble on Niutou Mountain, and that many villagers had been captured.
Since he had already encountered this place, he decided to come to Niutou Mountain.
Hearing the bull demon say that he had never harmed any human beings naturally aroused Chen Changsheng's suspicion.
Seeing that Chen Changsheng didn't believe what he said, the bull demon quickly pursed his lips and said:
"May the Immortal see the truth!"
"Everything Xiao Niu said is true."
"I have housed all those humans in my cave; their lives are no longer in danger!"
"If the immortal still doesn't believe it, he can send someone into the cave to investigate and find out the truth!"
Upon hearing the bull demon's words, Chen Changsheng narrowed his eyes slightly and then looked at Huang Feihu standing to the side.
Upon receiving Chen Changsheng's gaze, Huang Feihu immediately understood and quickly looked towards the group of soldiers who had come with him not far away.
"Go into the cave and take a look!"
"Yes, General!"
