Chronicles of Celestial Origins

"Hey! Fellow Taoist Lu, please get up quickly. You don't have to do this. You are hurting Tang. How can Tang afford such a great gift from fellow Taoist?" Tang Ning quickly supported him.

"If Taoist Friend Tang can say a few kind words for our sect and continue our sect's inheritance, he will be a great benefactor to our sect with the grace of rebuilding. It is only natural for me to kowtow to my benefactor!"

Seeing his pretense, Tang Ning was unmoved, but her face looked touched: "Fellow Daoist Lu, I've said it before, please take a seat first!"

The two sat down at the stone table again.

"If Taoist Fellow Tang can help our sect survive this calamity, as long as we are ordered to do so, our sect will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Tang Ning was waiting for his words. When he saw what he said, she stopped hiding it: "I know that your clan's surrender to the Mubei Demon was just a temporary measure, just to preserve the family fortune. Being confused for a moment is not what I really want to do.”

"To be honest, I am very willing to help your lord, but he is a soft-spoken person, and his words are of no use in the coalition. If your lord wants to be readmitted to the coalition, he needs to find someone who can speak in the coalition and has a high position of authority. "

Lu Zhengxian then said, "I know that senior Nangong Muxue of your sect has a close relationship with fellow Taoists. I wonder if I can ask her for a word."

Tangning took a sip of wine and said nothing.

"If you need anything, fellow Taoist, just ask. As long as it can help our sect tide over this crisis, our sect will agree to it no matter what the conditions."

"I'll tell you the truth! My wife's mentor is not easy to deal with. I advise fellow Taoists to find other channels first."

Lu Zhengxian turned over his hands and took out a simple stone box. He presented it to him with both hands and said: "This is the Infant Transformation Pill that has been treasured by our house for many years. I am already very old and have a short life span. I will never have the chance to use it in this life." , Fellow Taoist, he is in his prime, and will definitely come in handy in the future, so please don’t despise it.”

"How embarrassing!" Tang Ning said as she took the stone box from him and opened it. It turned out to be the Infant Transformation Pill.

He had already obtained this thing, it was not of much value to him, it was just better than nothing.

"Our sect still has some family property. Except for the sect's necessary expenses, the rest has been loaded. Fellow Taoist Tang can send someone to pick it up at any time."

"There is no reward for no merit. I have received so many great gifts from your sect, how can I be so greedy? Let's do this! Find an opportunity and I will talk to my wife and mentor about this matter."

"Thank you, Fellow Taoist Tang." Lu Zhengxian finally showed a hint of joy on his face.

"I will put in a few good words for you in front of my wife-in-law's mentor, but I have to declare in advance that I am not sure whether my wife-in-law's mentor will agree to it."

"As long as Fellow Taoist Tang is willing to say a few nice words for our sect in front of Senior Nangong, our sect will be extremely grateful."

The two chatted for a while, and after drinking for a while, Lu Zhengxian thanked him profusely and left.

…

At nightfall, Tang Ning quietly left the column station. After walking for a short time, he came to a top-quality spiritual mine in the city. He escaped from the light and landed in front of the Kazuo Kuo Cave Mansion, and stepped into the inner room.

"Husband." In the stone room, Liu Ruhan was sitting cross-legged and practicing with her eyes closed. When she heard the sound of the stone door swinging open, she opened her eyes and saw Tang Ning. She immediately stood up and went over to meet him.

After the column entered Fanyang City, the various ministries immediately went to Tingcheng to garrison, mainly to occupy the resource jurisdiction and mine spiritual minerals.

The general person in charge of the mining of spiritual minerals in the column is Liu Ruhan. She is not stationed at the column on weekdays, but in Tianyang Mountain in the city. This is a large-scale source of top-quality spiritual minerals. The spiritual stones mined by various ministries are sent here first. A series of reviews and verifications before being handed over to the column.

The two sat down next to each other. Tangning held her hand and said, "Ruru, there is something I need you to come forward with. The Huanglong Sect has found me and hopes to protect them."

"Huanglong Sect?"

"It's a sect in this city. It turned out to be a refuge for the Mubei demons, and now it wants to return to the coalition, so it found me. This matter must be approved by your master."

"Do you want to help them, husband?"

Tang Ning said: "It's not about helping them, it's about finding a long-term blood transfusion pool for us. Although the column currently controls the spiritual mines in Fanyang City, it won't be long before all the forces within the coalition will take back all their possessions in Fanyang City. There are only a handful of unclaimed lands left for the column. If we are ordered to leave Fanyang City one day, there will be nothing to gain. "

"The Huanglong Sect was originally the dominant tyrant in Fanyang City, and its influence has spread all over Changshan County. Due to the changes in the situation, although it has declined, its heritage is still there. As long as he can help him, it will be able to regain its strength in the future."

"The Huanglong Sect can only rely on us now. I am going to ask your master for a favor and ask the coalition forces to let them go. Of course, it is not unconditional. I will propose to them that half of the income they will earn in the future will be given to us. They don't want to No choice but to agree.”

"In this way, if they regain the resource jurisdiction in Fanyang City, it means that we occupy half of their resource jurisdiction. Including their future income from various industries, we will also share half of it."

Liu Ruhan said softly: "What if the Huanglong Sect regrets it later?"

"I forgive them for not daring. I came forward in the name of your master. How dare they offend your master? What's more, most of the Huanglong Sect's territory is now divided up by Mubei demons. If the column accepts their surrender, the territory will be returned to them. Even if we Taking away 50% of the profits is completely acceptable to them. As long as your master is still here, they won’t dare to go back on your promise.”

………

In Changshan County, where the Tenth Army Corps is stationed, in front of the majestic cave, a ray of light shot down, revealing Tang Ning's figure. Not long after, a man inside led him into the inner room.

In the spacious and bright hall, Wang Jingxing, commander of the 10th Army Corps, entered from the outside. Tang Ning quickly stood up and saluted: "Disciple pays homage to Master Uncle Wang."

"No need to be polite, just sit down!" Wang Jingxing came to the main seat and sat down, waving his hands and saying, "You are not stationed in Fanyang City, why are you here?"

"Disciple came here specially to send spirit stones for tax payment. This is the account of the spirit stones mined by our department. I would like to ask my uncle to take a look at it." Tang Ning turned his hands over and handed over the file with both hands.

If you want to preserve the Huanglong Sect, Wang Jingxing cannot get around this obstacle. As the commander of the army, all affairs in Changshan County are under his jurisdiction. He must make a proposal to the coalition forces, and then the coalition forces approve it. Return to the Qingzhou Alliance Army.

Even if Nangong Muxue agrees, he still has to go through the process of legion reporting, so Wang Jingxing's attitude is crucial.

"Wang Qi came to the legion a few days ago. Didn't he say that the spiritual stones mined by your column will be delivered in three months? Why do you still make this trip yourself?" Wang Jingxing took the file, looked at it for a few times, and put it aside. .

"Originally, the disciples and others discussed that they should be stored in the column first, but after some discussion, we decided that it would be a long night and have many dreams, so we sent the Tianling Ship to load it." Tang Ning replied that his main purpose of coming here was to intercede for the Huanglong Sect and win Wang Jingxing's consent. Sending spiritual stones to the legion as tax is just a casual thing.

"Fanyang City's cultivation resources are among the best in the entire Changshan County. The reason why I sent the third column to garrison is because of our friendship. It is a way for the army to reward you, you understand!"

"Disciple knows that my uncle has always taken care of me. I will bear this in my heart and I am grateful."

"You killed the descendant of the royal family of the green dragon. The body should have been handed over to you for disposal. The problem is that it is not comparable to ordinary monsters. The symbolic significance of the corpse of the descendant of the royal family of the green dragon is far greater than its actual value. This department has withheld its body. The corpse is to ask for credit for you. I expect that after the coalition forces know about this, they may take away this corpse and use it as a model for publicity. By then, your deeds will spread throughout Qingzhou and Mubei, and the coalition forces will naturally benefit from you. "Wang Jingxing said.

Since the green dragon was transported by Jia Gu from Xiaosheng City to Guangling City, it has been taken by the legion as his own. Naturally, Tangning did not dare to have any objections to this. Strictly speaking, the tenth column acted under the legion's instructions, and the income gained It is only natural that the spoils of war belong to the legion.

When the coalition monks fought, the gains they made were private. It was just an unspoken rule, and there were no clear regulations.

"How can a disciple be worthy of being a role model for coalition propaganda? Killing enemy monsters is just a disciple's duty. As for the body of the green dragon, it should have been handed over to the legion for disposal."

"I have sent people to the Allied Forces Headquarters for the meritorious service and reward files of all the personnel in this department. Regarding your killing of the descendants of the Qingjiao royal family, I listed them separately from everyone's meritorious service requests, and asked the Allied Forces to reward you heavily. I believe you have done so. Before long, your name will spread throughout the entire coalition." (End of Chapter)
