Under one person: I, Zhang Zhiwei, the arrogant Zhang

Facing the admiral's question.

A section chief of a special high section explained:

"We have a lot of immigrants in the Magic City. They are all retired soldiers and can be considered as intelligence personnel. According to the intelligence they sent back, the Tiantong leader did not directly attack our warships."

"He used a strange method to divert the warship's shells back and sank the warship. Because it did not involve supernatural powers, the shrine of Tsukuyomi-no-Mikoto did not play any role."

Someone was surprised and asked in confusion: "Can the shells fired by the warship be transferred back? What kind of method is this?!"

The chief of the Special High Section said, "I am only good at intelligence, not this. You should ask the priest of Ise Shrine!"

You bunch of idiots are not good at intelligence either… the Navy idiots and the Army idiots thought to themselves.

Then they looked towards the corner of the conference room and saw a middle-aged man wearing priest clothing.

The intention was to invite the Grand Priest to attend this meeting, but he did not show up and only sent his apprentice to attend the meeting.

The middle-aged priest of Ise Shrine said:

"Everyone, the other party used magic. We underestimated him. Not only was he good at golden light and thunder magic, but he also had a very high attainment in magic. He is a very powerful sorcerer, and we didn't know this before."

"Warlock? What does that mean? Is it similar to Onmyoji? As for the powerful you mentioned, how powerful is he?" a defense minister asked back.

The middle-aged priest thought for a moment and explained:

"It is incorrect to describe a sorcerer as an Onmyoji. The practice of a sorcerer is much more complicated than that of an Onmyoji. The Yin-Yang Dao practiced by an Onmyoji is also within the scope of magic. This cannot be explained in a few words. In short, in terms of potential, a sorcerer is much higher than an Onmyoji."

"However, if you want to know how powerful this little Taoist priest is... you should have read 'Romance of the Three Kingdoms', right?!"

Everyone nodded. The Three Kingdoms culture was very popular in Japan, and "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" was widely read by Japanese generals.

The middle-aged priest continued, "Zhuge Liang, the Marquis of the Three Kingdoms, was a sorcerer so powerful that he could call the wind and rain. In my opinion, even if this young celestial master is not as powerful as Zhuge Liang, he is probably not far behind."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire conference room suddenly fell silent, and one could hear a pin drop. When the middle-aged priest compared Zhang Zhiwei with Wu Hou, both the generals and ministers were stunned on the spot.

After a while, there was an uproar in the conference room. People reacted differently. Some people cursed, some said it was impossible, and some people looked livid and said nothing...

This result made them very dissatisfied. Wu Hou was a person they revered, a symbol of wisdom, and had an extraordinary status. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was like a god.

But now, the priest in front of them said that the enemy they were going to face was the same as Wu Hou. How could they accept this?

After a while of noise in the conference room, it quieted down, and a naval commander asked:

"If that's the case, then... what should we do now? How should we deal with him? And there's one more thing. The China Independence Fleet had two cruisers in the Magic City. One was destroyed, and the other cruiser was patrolling at sea and escaped the disaster. What should we do with the other one? Where should it dock?"

Upon hearing that there was still a cruiser that survived, several naval generals unanimously asked it to return home and not stay there to fall victim to further attacks.

Although Japan's industry flourished after the Meiji Restoration and many warships were built, they are still being manufactured overtime.

But compared with the old industrial powers in the West, there is still a big gap. How could they not feel heartbroken after losing an independent fleet all of a sudden?

As for how to deal with this person? The generals present didn't want to think about it. They really had no idea.

The army can't do anything to him, and the navy can't do anything to him. As for the air force... Japan does not have an independent air force, only aviation teams belonging to the army and navy respectively.

But from the previous encirclements, this person is different from ordinary aliens. He can fly and is very maneuverable. If we use airplanes, it will not only be ineffective, but will only make him a live target in the sky.

So, from a purely military perspective, they could no longer find any way to deal with the situation.

This was beyond the scope of his duties. After all, they were military generals who were good at fighting wars, not assassinating aliens.

It is said that every failure makes one wiser. They have suffered several setbacks and cannot continue like this.

Seeing this, the Minister of Defense sighed and said, "I will report this to His Majesty the Emperor and discuss how to deal with him. Before a specific response strategy is decided, stop all actions against him and his forces."

Upon hearing this, all the generals of the army and navy around him breathed a sigh of relief. Don't worry, no one wants to deal with this monster-like guy.

An army general said: "It should have been done long ago. In my opinion, this kind of top-notch alien should be dealt with by top-notch aliens, not the army. The army can only play a supporting role at most!"

"The top alien? Then tell me, who is the top alien?" A naval general couldn't help but retort him.

Except for a few wise generals, most of those who can reach the current position are powerful extraordinary people.

Before this, they would definitely get angry with anyone who said they were not top-notch aliens.

But now, no one says that they are the top extraordinary people, because if they say so, they might have to deal with the little Taoist priest.

The army general glanced at the navy idiot who had choked him and said:

"General Onijima launched a siege against him before. Even the ninja leader of Mt. Higashima was dispatched, but he failed in the end."

"Let's not talk about the strength of General Onijima for now, but the Ninja Head is undoubtedly a top-notch alien, at least in terms of assassination. If there is anyone stronger than him..."

"I can only think of the head of the Yagyu family, the Yagyu Sword Master, and the chief priest of the Ise Shrine."

"But whether it's the Sword Master Liu Sheng or the Grand Priest, it's undoubtedly not feasible to ask them to go to Shenzhou to kill the Little Heavenly Master. Their identities are too sensitive. If they go there, once their whereabouts are exposed, they will probably be besieged and put in danger."

After listening to the analysis of the Army General, the Navy General said:

"So what you mean is that we have no way to deal with him?"

The army general said: "That's why we need to ask His Majesty the Emperor!"

…

…

Not only Japan, but intelligence departments of other countries also received this news and were all shocked.

They never imagined that an individual's military power could be so strong that it could even destroy a fleet.

This is totally unlike something an alien can do. Even the horrific beings recorded in many top-secret documents find it difficult to do this.

It was also from this incident that the name of Tiantong Sect Leader came into the attention of the entire world.

At the same time, in London, in the headquarters building of the Royal Anglican Order.

On the huge round conference table, inlaid with ivory, shells and turquoise, bronze candlesticks illuminated thirteen thorn iron chairs. A group of people sat around the table, and the atmosphere was extremely gloomy.

"Shouldn't we send Acardo to the Far East to deal with the affairs of Holy Trinity Church and avoid the investigation of the Holy See? Why is this happening?!"

"Acardo is a very important weapon, but now, this weapon has been destroyed inexplicably. Hircine, you must be responsible for your decision." An old man broke the silence.

"It has already happened. There is no point in talking about it anymore. We have suffered a great loss this time. Let's first think about how to deal with this matter and the pressure from the Vatican." Another old man said coldly.

Hircine is an old man with long silver hair, cold and deep grey eyes, and strong facial lines. He is the leader of the Knights Templar and the strongest demon hunter.

He looked at the other people at the round table and said in a deep voice, "I made a wrong decision this time. The failure in the Far East was far greater than I imagined. It's OK that the Holy Trinity Church is lost. Let's not worry about it for the time being."

"So what you mean is that the matter of Akado is over?" asked another old man.

Hirsing said, "Back then, I was the one who defeated and subdued the vampire king Akado. I know Akado's strength best. It's not easy to kill him. The situation is getting more and more unstable now. We need to shrink our strategy instead of going to the Far East to fight with others. I don't even want to conflict with the Holy See."

As he spoke, he took out a document and placed it on the round table: "There is some information about the man who killed Akado in here. You can take a closer look and then make a decision."

A group of elderly people were flipping through the documents one by one. The expression on the faces of everyone who had read them suddenly became heavy, as if tears were almost dripping out of their eyes.

Destroying an entire fleet by himself... What a terrifying combat power. When we think about the fact that he once killed Akado, this man is simply powerful in all aspects. Everyone couldn't help but sigh in amazement.

The reason for saying this is that the abilities of extraordinary people often differ.

It’s like they are very good at hunting demons, and even when facing a demon of Akado’s level, they have the confidence to fight it.

But if they were asked to resist the army head-on, they would only end up dead.

Because of his special abilities, Akado is particularly good at large-scale combat, and can play a considerable role even in the battles of large armies.

This is why Hircine took the risk of violating the rules in order to recruit him as his subordinate.

Because, as the world's biggest troublemaker, they are extremely good at offshore balancing and have long smelled the scent of war.

Akado was the weight they added to deal with the war, but this weight is gone.

But now, in the Far East, there has appeared a being that is not only extremely powerful in individual strength, but can also resist the army and destroy the fleet.

Do they need to fight against this person? !

There is absolutely no need.

As a group of troublemakers who are best at conspiracy, what they are best at is cutting losses in time.

They don't want face, land, or people, they just want benefits.

If they can't get any benefits, they will withdraw, and when they withdraw, they will smash the pot, leaving behind a mess that cannot be solved for decades or even hundreds of years.

So, after reading this information, almost everyone made their own decision.

"There is no need to continue. We have already lost the Holy Trinity Church and an Acardo. This is already very heavy. We must stop the loss in time."

"Yes, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a bottomless pit. Only the stubborn Japanese people would keep fighting against it."

"What about Holy Trinity Church?!"

"What else do we need it for? Contact that Tiantong Church and tell them there was a misunderstanding and we want to withdraw. Holy Trinity Church can be sold to them at a low price."

"Low price? How low?"

"It's lower than the market price, as long as we don't lose money."

"We stole all that. We didn't spend any money on it. How can we talk about losing money? We just made a little less."

"By the way, we can also try to touch and pull the Tiantong Sect Master to see if we can use it."

At the roundtable meeting, everyone quickly reached a consensus and formulated a proposal to try to win over Zhang Zhiwei.

…

…

But at this moment in the Great Shangqing Palace of Mount Longhu, the atmosphere was as heavy as water.

Longhu Mountain has not yet used the telegraph. The mainstream method of communication is still sending letters via paper cranes. Compared with the telegraph, there is a slight lag in the transmission of messages.

As for Yin-Yang paper, although Zhang Zhiwei is using it and Tianshi has a few pieces, it is not used on a large scale in Longhu Mountain.

After all, this is the Wang family's method. They have the ability to eavesdrop. How can a big sect expose its information to other forces? Even if this force is on good terms with them, it won't work.

Not long ago, their paper cranes received news that their disciple Zhang Zhiwei had come down the mountain and fought a series of battles, forcing the God Cult to move its church and withdraw from the Magic City.

When they arrived here, although several elders and senior monks felt that Zhang Zhiwei was a bit radical, they were more excited because after all, their disciple had become famous.

But soon, they received news that Zhang Zhiwei, after being quiet for a few days, began to take action against the Japanese pirates, and even attacked several of their temples, forcing the Japanese pirates to take desperate measures and send a fleet to cooperate with the army to attack and encircle Zhang Zhiwei.

This was an urgent message, and the follow-up content had not yet been delivered, but everyone was getting nervous, even Zhang Jingqing was no exception. He quickly summoned a group of high-ranking priests to hold a meeting at the Dashangqing Palace to discuss countermeasures.

When a group of high-ranking officials heard that Zhang Zhiwei was in danger, they were eager to protect him and immediately went down the mountain to rescue their disciple and deal with the Japanese pirates' army.

"From here to the Magic City, if there is no special means to help, with our physical strength, I'm afraid it's impossible to make it. I'm using the Wang family's means to contact Zhiwei, but there is no news from him yet!"

Zhang Jingqing frowned, holding a piece of Yin-Yang paper in his hand, which was covered with dense handwriting, but Zhang Zhiwei did not reply at all, which made him more and more anxious. Could it be that something had happened to his apprentice?

As for the Yin-Yang papers on Zhang Huaiyi and others, they were not connected to the Yin-Yang papers in Zhang Jingqing's hands, so they could not contact each other.

At this moment, Zhang Zhiwei was in the deepest sleep in order to recover his damaged mind. He did not notice the slight movement coming from the Yin-Yang paper in the money box.

This made Zhang Jingqing, Zhang Yi and others very anxious.

"It's a pity that there is no one in our mountain who knows how to use the Golden Escape Skill." Zhang Jingqing secretly sighed. Who could have thought that the inheritance of this unique Taoist skill would eventually fall into the hands of a Quan Xing monster.

"I have also contacted Aunt Lan. She is on the way and will be at Longhu Mountain soon!" Zhang Yi said.

What arrived at Longhu Mountain earlier than Aunt Lan was the urgent report from Jianghu Inn.
