388 The Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island

Wen Zhong simply looked at Mao Shen’s name on the memorial, nodded confidently, and said, “Your Majesty, I can. But…”

After Wen Zhong finished speaking, he still had a conflicted expression on his face.

“What’s wrong? If Grand Preceptor has anything to say, please speak.”

It was obvious that Emperor Xin was still very respectful to his trusted officials.

“Your Majesty, it’s not difficult to kill them, but they’re conferred by the Jade Emperor. If we really do it, we’ll inevitably have to face the Heavenly Court.”

Wen Zhong’s worry was not without reason.

Even though the Shang dynasty was getting stronger by the day, in terms of strength, there was still a huge gap between the Heavenly Court and the human race.

If they were to really go up against the Heavenly Court, the human race would not be able to fight back at all.

“Alright, Grand Preceptor, you don’t have to say anything more. I already have a plan. You can just show your might.”

Emperor Xin’s face was full of confidence. After enduring humiliation for a few years, he had laid a solid foundation. At that moment, he could begin his great plan to change his fate.

When Wen Zhong left with his orders, a black shadow appeared beside Emperor Xin.

“My King, your recruitment order has little effect. Those Immortals seem to be uninterested in becoming officials in Great Shang. Out of the four General seats, only one has extraordinary skills.”

The man was dressed in a black robe, and he was talking about the spy organization that Emperor Xin had quietly developed over the years.

In just a few years, Emperor Xin had already established a spy organization with traces all over the wilderness, called the Delinquents.

This black-robed man was the leader of the Delinquents. He was a crafty official who was famous throughout history, Fei Zhong.

This was also an unexpected discovery by Emperor Xin. Even though he was good at flattery, he was also good at espionage.

In addition, Di Xin had told Fei Zhong everything about the modern spy warfare, so it was no exaggeration to say that Fei Zhong was the number one spy in the entire Gods and Monsters Universe.

In just a few years, the Delinquents had already spread all over the nine regions and four seas. There were spies of the Delinquents in all the Dukedoms.

Di Xin’s brows furrowed upon hearing this. He picked up the wine glass on the table and took a sip. After a moment of contemplation, he said, “It is already a good result to have one person enter Great Shang at this time. What is his name?”

“He is the military chief of Jiepai Pass,” Fei Zhong reported respectfully.

“Your Majesty, that man’s surname is Zhao and his name is Hao. He’s said to be an itinerant Immortal of Penglai Island. When he heard that Your Majesty was recruiting talented individuals, he rushed over. My men can’t see through his cultivation. He’s at least an Earth Immortal and is currently the military chief of Jiepai Pass.”

Di Xin’s brows furrowed even deeper when he heard this.

“Zhao Hao… Zhao Hao…”

Di Xin repeated this name over and over again. He had a strange feeling in his heart, as he had never heard of this name in the Gods and Monsters Universe.

Those with cultivation above the Earth Immortal realm were not unknown existences.

“This Zhao Hao is a little strange.”

Di Xin called out Zhao Hao’s name a few times in his heart before he immediately dismissed Fei Zhong.

He continued to deal with the memorials.

Ever since Emperor Xin started to work hard to strengthen the human race.

Only then did he realize that it wasn’t easy to be a monarch in ancient times.

In such a large empire, he had to deal with all kinds of matters, big and small, by himself.

“When I settle the chaos in the North Sea, I’ll definitely set up a cabinet and let them do everything for me. Even if I don’t get killed by those Immortals, I’ll be exhausted to death,” Di Xin said in an irritated tone.

Five days later…

At Jiepai Pass’ military chief’s residence…

Zhao Hao, the trusted military chief, announced that he would enter seclusion after taking office.

This made the soldiers of Jiepai Pass very curious, wondering what this new military chief was up to.

Zhao Hao, on the other hand, was absorbing the abundant Spiritual Qi of the Great World with the help of the Sea-Pacifying Pearls.

Finally, after five days of closed-door cultivation, his Spiritual Qi had reached its peak, and he could enter the Heaven Immortal realm at any time.

‘No, I can’t break through here. Entering the Heaven Immortal realm will cause a huge commotion. As the military chief of the Great Shang Army, if I were to be exposed, it would inevitably attract the attention of people with ill intentions.’

Zhao Hao’s eyes glinted as he stood in the military chief’s residence.

Then, he leaped out.

The soldiers guarding the door didn’t even have time to react. They heard Zhao Hao’s voice from the horizon.

“I’m going overseas to visit a friend. I’ll be back in two to three days or half a month.”

Just like that, under the gawking eyes of the soldiers, Zhao Hao left Jiepai Pass.

In the sky, Zhao Hao flew for tens of thousands of miles and arrived at a desolate sea.

After finding an uninhabited island, Zhao Hao sat down cross-legged and focused on breaking through to the Heaven Immortal realm.

Two days later…

Zhao Hao’s body suddenly glowed with multicolored light as wisps of Immortal Qi emanated from his body.

The entire surface of the sea was affected, and it kept boiling.

Zhao Hao, who was sitting cross-legged on the island, slowly opened his eyes. He had enough experience, so he entered the initial stage of the Heaven Immortal realm without any pressure.

Just as Zhao Hao was about to leave, four figures suddenly flew over from the distance.

“I wonder which fellow Daoist has made a breakthrough near my Nine Dragons Island. The four of us brothers have come here to congratulate you.”

He saw that the four figures were all riding on handsome-looking strange beasts.

When Zhao Hao heard that this place was called Nine Dragons Island, he immediately knew the background of these four people.

Among the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island, the disciples of the Severity Tribe, Wang Mo, Yang Sen, Gao Youqi, and Li Xingba.

During The Investiture of the Gods, Grand Preceptor Wen attacked Xiqi and was finally conferred the title of Grand Marshal of the Four Saints of the Divine Wind Palace.

Zhao Hao didn’t panic when he saw that all four of them were in the Earth Heaven realm.

Putting aside the fact that he was in the same camp as the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island.

In a direct fight, Zhao Hao could easily take down the four of them.

“Greetings, fellow Daoists. I’m the General of the Jiepai Pass. I’m making a breakthrough here and have disturbed you. Please forgive me.”

Zhao Hao humbly returned the gesture.

He didn’t have the lofty air of a Heaven Immortal at all.

Zhao Hao’s action made the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island feel relieved.

The four of them had been living a carefree life on the island when they suddenly sensed that someone had broken through to the Heaven Immortal realm nearby.

It was reasonable for the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island to come and take a look.

When they heard that Zhao Hao was a General of Great Shang, the eldest of the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island, Wang Mo, immediately said, “Fellow Daoist, since you are a General of Great Shang, have you heard of my good friend, Wen Zhong?”

Hearing this, Zhao Hao immediately had an idea and said, “Fellow Daoist Wen Zhong is the Grand Preceptor of the current dynasty, so you naturally know about it. To be honest, I have a deep friendship with fellow Daoist Wen Zhong. By the way, I heard that fellow Daoist Wen Zhong has been in some trouble recently. Do you know about it?”

Now that he had met the Four Saints of Nine Dragons Island, Zhao Hao had no intention of letting them go.

It just so happened that you didn’t have many trusted aides you could use his Jiepai Pass, and these four had appeared just in time.
