Loyal Heart Roaming the Skies

If you ask who is the number one person in Youguo, many people would not think of the lecherous Youguo monarch, but would think of the national teacher, Zhao Cang.

He has been in power for many years, and Youguo has been prosperous and peaceful, deeply loved by the people.

Because of his close connection with the people, he often personally performs rituals to bring rain. Many people in Youguo have seen him and know him.

At this moment, when Zhao Cang appeared, he naturally became the focus of attention.

As soon as he landed, he looked at Jiang Wang and exclaimed, "What a talented young man! Jiang Wang is like an early wise man."

With just one glance, he saw through Jiang Wang's true age and was not deceived by his white hair.

Jiang Wang couldn't figure out his intentions and remained silent.

"Just now, I divined and discovered that the first curse power of this city was annihilated by you. As a result, Yin Guan's Thousand Absolute Curse could only be activated hastily, which gave us more room to maneuver and greatly reduced the harm. You can be said to have saved the twenty-seven cities!"

Zhao Cang bowed to Jiang Wang, "I, on behalf of the twenty-seven cities, thank you!"

Jiang Wang stepped aside, not daring to accept the old man's courtesy. He didn't expect that his actions would be revealed by divination. The other party was obviously a big figure in Youguo, and he even took the initiative to bow to him. It must be said that he had already shown enough respect.

"I dare not, I dare not." Jiang Wang waved his hand repeatedly, "It was just a matter of seeing injustice."

His words were meant to be modest, but also had a hint of reprimanding the playboy.

Zhao Cang, as a person of great importance, naturally could hear it.

He first gestured to the people around him, "Please rise, everyone. It is Zhao Cang's incompetence that has caused this misunderstanding with Yin Guan, and almost caused a great disaster today!"

Immediately, someone knelt down, "Even the oranges on a tree have different tastes, let alone the people of a country? Master Guoshi, how can it be your fault that Yin Guan caused trouble?"

"Yes, it's all that ambitious Yin Guan's fault! We all misjudged him!"

"Who said it wasn't! This despicable person who kills thousands!"

The people present comforted one another.

"Ah." Zhao Cang sighed and said, "My son, Zhao Che, has always been impulsive and hot-blooded. When he saw Yin Guan's conspiracy to overthrow the country, he became furious. When he saw a little clue, he held onto it tightly, regardless of the consequences. Did he do something good with good intentions just now? In any case, let me apologize to everyone on his behalf."

He looked around and lowered his posture even more, bowing his head and saluting, "Zhao Cang apologizes to everyone!"

It turned out that this playboy was the son of Youguo's national teacher!

The attitude of the people around suddenly changed.

They all returned the courtesy and made way.

"I dare not, I dare not."

"It must have been a misunderstanding."

"He is not..." Xu Xiangqian probably wanted to say something.

But he was stopped by Jiang Wang.

Since this old man was Zhao Cang, the national teacher of Youguo, and this playboy was his son, there was no need to continue entangling in this matter.

No matter what, this is Youguo.

Zhao Cang has the final say in Youguo.

By apologizing, he has already given enough face. Whether it is sincere or just a show, it is the best result.

Continuing to entangle will not only fail to punish Zhao Che, but will also harm Su Muqing.

The two of them do not live and develop in Youguo, they can just leave. But the Su family cannot.

Zhao Cang bowed to Jiang Wang and Xu Xiangqian, "I also apologize to the two young brothers!"

Xu Xiangqian did not respond.

Jiang Wang returned the courtesy, "Master Zhao, there is no need to be polite. Speaking of recklessness, I am not inferior. Please understand."

At this point, a group of people from the upper city finally caught up and caught up with Zhao Cang.

One of them, a middle-aged man with a black beard, came to the scene and exclaimed, "Qing'er!"

"Dad!" Su Muqing sobbed and threw herself into his arms.

This person is probably Su Quan, the head of the Su family, one of the ruling families of the twenty-seven cities, who went to the upper city with Yin Guan for a report earlier.

At this time, Zhao Cang asked with great courtesy, "I don't know the name of this young man. Would you have time to have a chat with me in the upper city? It would be a great honor for me to express my gratitude."

All Youguo cultivators know that the Guardian Beast of the country is constantly absorbing a huge amount of spiritual energy and cultivating on its back, which can accelerate their cultivation speed.

This is one of the reasons why the giant turtle beast is the Guardian Beast of the country, and it is also the reason why everyone in Youguo longs to go to the upper city.

Not to mention the rewards after Youguo, just being invited to the upper city itself is a great honor.

"My name is Jiang Wang." This place is far from Zhuangguo, and Jiang Wang's name is not a secret. He doesn't need to hide it.

He politely declined, "I don't hide it from Master Zhao, I am just passing through Youguo. I have important matters to attend to and must continue on my way immediately. I can only accept your kind intentions in my heart."

"It's okay, it's okay." Zhao Cang didn't insist, but took out a jade bottle from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Wang, "Here is a Longevity Pill, made from the shed shell of the Guardian Beast, ground into powder and refined. It has the effect of prolonging life. It is a token of gratitude from Youguo."

It must be said that this thank-you gift is just what Jiang Wang needs right now.

The constantly sacrificed lifespan often makes him feel urgent, although he has never regretted it.

One year of lifespan cannot make up for everything, but for him, it is already precious.

When his father was still alive, he often said that giving gifts could best show a person's ability. It wasn't until many years later, when he met Zhao Cang in a foreign land, that Jiang Wang truly understood this saying.

"This is too precious!" Jiang Wang declined, "Master Zhao should keep it for yourself.""Compared to the safety of all the people in the twenty-seven cities, what is the value of this mere longevity pill?" Zhao Cang refused to take it back: "Although this pill can extend life by one year, taking more is useless. Young friend Jiang, please accept it."

Ever since Zhao Cang appeared, the handsome young man Zhao Che had not said a word. He seemed a bit resentful at this moment, but he didn't dare to say anything and turned his head away.

Xu Xiangqian said from the side: "There's nothing wrong with receiving rewards for your contributions, why refuse?"

So Jiang Wang accepted it.

Zhao Cang then said: "I wonder if young friend Jiang would be willing to serve in my Yuoguo after finishing his own affairs? I see that your Dao is full and your Zhou Tian is smooth. With such a deep foundation, you may soar to the sky soon!"

The onlookers finally realized why the national teacher treated this young man so courteously. It turned out to be for the purpose of recruiting talents for Yuoguo.

Truly a broad-minded and eager talent seeker.

"National teacher, you flatter me too much!" Jiang Wang quickly said: "I, Jiang Wang, am young and weak, I dare not accept such high praise."

Being rejected by Jiang Wang, Zhao Cang was not annoyed, but just smiled and said: "If young friend Jiang is in a hurry to leave, you can leave now. But the gate of Yuoguo's upper city will always be open for you!"

"I am humbled." Jiang Wang bowed, then turned to Xu Xiangqian and said: "Brother Xu, you mentioned leaving earlier, would you like to go together now?"

Xu Xiangqian seemed not to understand his hint, and laughed: "Brother Jiang, go ahead, I still have some matters to deal with in Yuoguo. We will meet again if it's meant to be!"

Jiang Wang thought for a moment, then didn't insist any further, and turned to leave.

Only when he was far away did Zhao Cang turn his head back, looking at Xu Xiangqian with a kind smile: "I wonder how Mr. Mo from Qingya Academy has been doing recently?"

Only then did Zhao Che realize that Jiang Wang, who seemed mysterious to him, might not have any background at all.

And Xu Xiangqian, who seemed like an ordinary passerby to him, was the one with a truly deep background!

Qingya Academy is one of the four major academies in the world, the true orthodoxy of Confucianism, the school of the sages.

Although he also studied in a Confucian academy, there are so many academies in the world.

The academy he attended couldn't even compare to the tree stump in front of Qingya Academy.

And that Mr. Mo, who was rumored to hate evil as his enemy, was the most influential scholar in Qingya Academy!
