Rivers and lakes in another world

Chapter 382 The Dust Settles
The method Jiang Wenhuan chose was to protect Yan Xuelan.

Yan Chaohui is already a martial artist who has entered the Dao realm, and there are many masters around him, so Jiang Wenhuan doesn't need to make a move for a while.

But the days of retreat and penance were very distressing for Jiang Wenhuan who couldn't bear the loneliness.

It happened that the appearance of Yan Xuelan solved this problem very well.

Yan Xuelan is Yan Chaohui's most valued daughter and is much loved.The previous time Yan Xuelan went to Changcao Plain, Zhao Wuji from Beiyan Pillar actually followed him secretly.

And the opponent is only two or three warriors in the innate realm, this is really killing a chicken with a sledgehammer.If it wasn't for the very good relationship between Yan Xuelan and Zhao Wuji, another prince or princess would not necessarily have such treatment.

After Yan Xuelan went back, she rejected her father's action of asking a national pillar like Zhao Wuji to protect her. This was a serious waste of resources.

So Jiang Wenhuan volunteered to protect Yan Xuelan.

Originally, Jiang Wenhuan wanted to see what kind of magical power this little niece, who had attracted so much attention from friends, could turn the person who hated children the most into a daughter-in-law.

As soon as I got in touch with her, I discovered that Yan Xuelan was not only good-looking, but also had a first-class mental talent.

Many things in martial arts are transparent at one point, and there are endless witty words when communicating with others.It can be said that he is very far-sighted, much stronger than the two original friends, but his cultivation base is low, and he lacks the training of practical life, which makes him a little immature.

Just like a delicate flower, it still needs the protection of a big tree for the time being, but this delicate flower will eventually grow one day.

Especially after Yan Xuelan left Yanjing, her behavior became more obvious.

After leaving Yanjing, Yan Xuelan began to try to develop her own power.

She did not choose to rely on the power of the sect or the family, just like the first prince and the second prince.Instead, build a force from the common people and from casual cultivators.

It is very obvious in Luanfengwei.

Except for some old people who were Yan Xuelan's former guards, most of the rest of the Luanfeng Guard were loose martial artists recruited one after another or orphans and widows.

Yan Xuelan gave them the opportunity to eat, and they also had to offer their loyalty to Yan Xuelan.

Moreover, Yan Xuelan trusted Jiang Wenhuan very much, and told him some unknowing arrangements.

With the help of Mr. Baili, Yan Xuelan has already set up several caravans in the dark to transfer funds to Yan Xuelan and pass information along the way.

Vigorously promote talents with civilian backgrounds and no background, and recruit all kinds of people who have been suppressed.

He also recruited some relatively small-scale sects, not to cooperate with them, but to make them loyal.

Yan Xuelan has no intention of cooperating with us, and has experienced various changes in his previous life, which let him know that the sect should not be above the imperial court system, or even parallel, but should be under the imperial court's management.

The same is true of various aristocratic families.

The two are similar to some extent.

They regard the sect and family rules as more important than the country's laws and regulations.

It is obviously located within the territory of the country, but it neither obeys orders nor listens to announcements.

It doesn't matter if they can be honest, but unfortunately this group of people will still make trouble.

Not all major sects are noble, even Taoist sects and even Buddhist sects will have scum, and there will be candidates who use various methods because of natural talents and earth treasures.

When people in the imperial court want to manage, they will protect their weaknesses. After all, warriors are human beings, not saints. They also have their own emotions and desires. For one reason or another, they will always do things that go against their hearts. .

It is precisely because of this that the people of the Zongmen are difficult to manage, and the repeated concessions and forbearances have caused us to become more and more unscrupulous.

Building a city to survive near the front where the Zongmen is located is the biggest challenge to the regime.

But there is no way, every state government wants to order these sects, just like the Great Zhou when the country was first established.

But the power of the Zongmen is too strong now, let's talk about the current three gates, Taoism, Buddhism, and magic.

There are so many sects under the sect, and the number one below is even more numerous.

Do you dare to move?If you don't have strength, you can only hit your head and bleed.

But in Yan Xuelan's heart, if the big sects can't be controlled by themselves, why not the smaller ones?

Therefore, Yan Xuelan would not refuse anyone who came, ranging from a hundred people down to the most pitiful five or six people.

As for how to make them submit, it is naturally a policy of sticking with sweet dates.

With eyesight, it is the work of Zhenxin and Yan Xuelan, which is directly a variety of training resources and martial arts cheats.

Those who are not willing to cooperate should be beaten up first, speak with fists, and then use resources to win over after being convinced, and things will be done.

The small sects that Yan Xuelan recruited were all carefully selected, rather than the way of casting a wide net.

There are many people in the selected sect who have no bad deeds. The leader or most of the people are considered to be loyal and honest people. However, due to the lack of resources, talent and martial arts limitations, they have not been able to grow well.

Of course, these small sects are not weapons that Yan Xuelan uses to suppress other sects, but will become the supply of armed forces in Yan Xuelan's hands in the future.

These small sects are loyal to Yan Xuelan, and Yan Xuelan provides them with resources to help them cultivate. Correspondingly, they also have to fulfill their own obligations and donate their blood and sweat for Yan Xuelan.

Raising soldiers for a thousand days is for the time to get soldiers.

Jiang Wenhuan was well aware of such operations.

It also made her feel that Yan Xuelan was really ambitious.Just like some gossip that has already been heard above the imperial court.

As the eldest princess, Yan Xuelan actually wanted to compete for the position of crown prince, and constantly expanded her power, which seemed to be a struggle for power and profit.

Even Jiang Wenhuan thought so early at the beginning, thinking that he knew the ambition of this little niece, in order to become the crown prince.

But after the conversation between the uncle and nephew, Jiang Wenhuan was completely shocked.

Yan Xuelan's ambition was far beyond his imagination. She not only wanted the throne of Beiyan, but also wanted to build Beiyan into a unified regime like the Great Zhou Dynasty, and even control all countries outside the Central Plains. domination of the region.

This is more or less a fantasy, let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about the fact that a woman is the crown prince and the lord of the country.

It has been largely impossible to succeed.

Neither the aristocratic family nor Beiyan's sect would allow a woman to inherit Beiyan's throne, nor would they willingly submit to a woman.

Yan Xuelan quickly refuted the traditional view of Jiang Wenhuan, which most people agree with.

They themselves disagreed only because there had never been a female emperor in the Yuanwu Continent, even if there were some empress dowagers who were behind the scenes and did not appear on the front stage.

This is like when the martial arts of the human race rose, and the appearance of the first female martial artist, isn't it a similar situation?

People think that only men can practice martial arts and men can become warriors.But judging from subsequent developments, women can also practice martial arts and become warriors. The only difference between the two is probably their gender.

Now there are not many female warriors on the Yuanwu Continent, and there are also female suzerains. Even in the Taoist realm, there are many females, and their status is extremely noble.

In front of these people, will anyone say anything like women's inability to practice martial arts?Absolutely not.

Therefore, there is no need to debate whether a woman can be called emperor. As long as a person has strength, strength, and power in his hands, he can be called emperor, regardless of whether he is a man or a woman.

If such words were spread, it would definitely cause an uproar, Yan Xuelan didn't care that Jiang Wenhuan might pass the news to her father, or tell others, because she knew that Jiang Wenhuan was not that kind of person.

In the previous life, the two had a relationship of being both a teacher and a friend, and they knew a lot about each other.

At that time, Beiyan underwent a great change and after Yan Chaohui fell, the entire land of Beiyan became a battleground between the two camps headed by the First Prince and the Second Prince.

And Jiang Wenhuan appeared beside Yan Xuelan at that time.

At that time, many high-level warriors in Beiyan died.

A small number of people including Jiang Wenhuan survived, some chose the eldest prince, and some chose the second prince.

Only Jiang Wenhuan obeyed Yan Chaohui's order and replaced Yan Chaohui to protect Yan Xuelan.

Since that day, Yan Xuelan has had a diligent person beside her.

During the battle, Yan Xuelan stayed close to protect her. In her spare time, she taught Yan Xuelan martial arts and explained various forms of Beiyan.

At that time, Yan Xuelan chose to help her elder brother out of hatred because her second brother became a traitor to the country.

He worked hard on the battlefield and walked on the edge of life and death many times.

It was only later that I realized that my elder brother and second brother were actually the same in essence, they were all for their own power and desires, and they didn't really want to do something for the country of Beiyan. The responsibility of an emperor did not realize the responsibilities they should bear.

Yan Xuelan felt uncomfortable in her heart. She wanted Beiyan to exist, but it shouldn't be a person who was fighting on the front lines and living and drinking in the background.

At that time, due to some accidents, the eldest prince could be said to die soon, and in the midst of panic, Yan Xuelan at that time was given a chance to leave.

So Yan Xuelan came to the Great Wall of Beijiang and began to take over part of the army, and began to build the Beiyan in her heart according to her own ideas.

And Jiang Wenhuan also slowly changed from an unknown personal guard to the guardian of the Great Wall of Northern Xinjiang.

Many years of contact in previous lives naturally allowed Yan Xuelan to understand what kind of person Jiang Wenhuan was, so she naturally spoke freely.

The relationship between the two is like a friend who forgets the year, which means that they are both teachers and friends.

This time in the battle of Jianwu Villa, Jiang Wenhuan obeyed Yan Xuelan's words and did not fight at first, and planned to give Luanfengwei a chance to train soldiers to see if they could successfully become a human-level army through this battle.

The accident still happened. The combined forces of Luanfengwei and other rivers and lakes warriors really have no better way to deal with those more than 500 people. On the other hand, Cheng Dieyi, an innate warrior, is still entangled. Knowing how many Demon Sect warriors there will be, Jiang Wenhuan did not choose Sanyan Xuelan to be in danger, but acted in time to be on the safe side.

The first move was his own Red Flame Palm, and then he started to arrest people with the scorching fire chains.

In Jiang Wenhuan's eyes, there is not much difference between these warriors of Zhoutian Realm, Tongmai Realm and Xiantian Realm. It is a matter of one move or two moves.

The current Jiang Wenhuan can break through to the middle stage of the Earth Demon Realm at any time. If it weren't for consolidating the foundation, Jiang Wenhuan would have broken through long ago.

So this change in Jianwu Villa, which caused a lot of casualties, and even an incident that could affect Jianzhou Wulin, ended like this.

Because of Jiang Wenhuan's accidental intervention, the result has already changed.

At this time, many surviving warriors began to take action on their own, dealing with the warriors of the Demon Sect, burying the bodies of their comrades, cleaning up the destroyed Jianwu Villa, etc.

Even the people from Luanfengwei joined in the clean-up work.Everyone at the scene had serious faces. There had just been a battle here, and there must have been a lot of casualties. No one would choose to smile at this time.

There are also some people who found the corpses of their friends or brothers and sisters, and they were crying bitterly at this time.

The people from all the major forces who were still alive came to Jiang Wenhuan to express their gratitude. If it weren't for this warrior from the Earthly Evil Realm, they might not have survived and captured so many warriors from the Demon Sect.

Not only Jiang Wenhuan but also to thank Yan Xuelan.

Luanfengwei contributed a lot in this battle, and if it wasn't for Yan Xuelan's reason, Jiang Wenhuan would not have appeared at all, so no matter who it is, as long as it is a survivor, it must express its gratitude.

It’s really good luck, some survivors are still feeling emotional in their hearts. When Yan Xuelan came in to watch the martial arts alliance meeting, they were dissatisfied and wary of others with unkind faces, but what they didn’t expect was that in the end it was because of Yan Xuelan. Xuelan survived.

If they had rejected Yan Xuelan at that time.

It is estimated that their final outcome will not be like this.

After finally sending all these people away, Yan Xuelan brought her main team to Jiang Wenhuan's side, "Uncle Jiang, you have worked so hard to help us win Jianwu Villa so easily."

Jiang Wenhuan said indifferently: "Hey, it's just a little thing, if it weren't for those bad-witted guys who want to attack you, I really don't want to move, and I can't even do the soothing effect, so it's over, it's so boring Yes. I checked it out, and it’s all medicine jars, it’s boring, it’s boring.”

After speaking, Jiang Wenhuan pointed behind him with his finger, where there were still piles of transferred Demon Sect warriors, all of them had bruised noses and swollen faces, foaming at the mouth.
