Chapter 20: Shen Wengui Calls Huang Shiren Big Brother and They Plot Together

  Huang Shiren originally wanted to slap Jiang Ziya to death with one palm.

  This guy will be sent down by Yuanshi Tianzun in more than 30 years to take charge of the Seal of the Gods, making the three religions chaotic and killing countless people. If he is done, it may save a lot of trouble. But thinking again, even if Jiang Ziya is killed, Yuanshi Tianzun can still send down Wang Ziyu or Li Ziyu to continue the chaos.

  As for Huang Shiren, Jiang Ziya was indeed a hateful guy, but he also knew him inside out. If he really killed him, he would still feel uncomfortable in his heart. That's why he colluded with Jin Dashi, and the two scoundrels, one in front of the other, made Jiang Ziya flee in a hurry, leaving a deep impression on Huang Shiren.

  As for Shen Gong Bao in front of him, haha, that is far more useful than Jiang Ziya.

  In the Investiture of the Gods, Shen Gongbao's line "Fellow Taoist, please stay" is truly a deadly first move that kills without being seen. Anyone who responds to this line either ends up on the Investiture of the Gods list or becomes a slave to various powerful people. However, deep down, Huang Shiren admires Shen Gongbao, who single-handedly uses his eloquence to mobilize numerous heroes and the forces of heaven against him, even in defeat, he remains glorious.

  "Shen Dao, you're too vicious!" Huang Shiren said angrily.

  "Huang Dao's words are absolutely right! This villain has always been like this, I've long wanted to skin him alive! Today, Daoist friend has helped me vent my anger!" Shen Gongbao smiled and spoke in a flattering tone.

  There's no way out for him now; he's at Huang Shiren's mercy and can be ruined anytime.

  Huang Shiren smiled and didn't rush, waiting for the anesthetic to wear off on Shen Gongbao's body. He then pulled him up, and they sat down together, started a fire, took out wine and meat, and ate while chatting.

  "Huang Daoyou, your skills are truly impressive. I wonder who your respected teacher is..." Shen Gongbao thought that Huang Shiren was not too bright, but his skills were not weak either. If he could deceive him and bring him over, he would be a useful tool to have around in the future.

  "Oh, my master is Lu Ya." Huang Shiren replied casually.

  "Who!?"

  "Lu Yao."

  Shen Gongbao heard this and his whole body trembled, looking at Huang Shiren with suspicion.

  Lu Yao is who, Shen Gong Bao knew it all too well. The reputation of the number one wanderer in the world, Kunlun Mountain, who doesn't know and who doesn't know? Shen Gong Bao had seen him several times, and even Yuan Shi Tian Zun treated him with great courtesy. It's said that this Lu Yao Dao person spent his whole life traveling all over the place and never took on any disciples. How did this silly kid get such good luck?

  "What's wrong, fellow Taoist? Don't you believe me?" Huang Shiren took out the seven- arrowed book and waved it in front of Shen Gongbiao, whose face turned deathly pale.

  Unexpectedly, this fool is a disciple of Lu Ya, and it's not worth offending him. However, if he can be settled, using him as a scapegoat with Lu Ya's reputation wouldn't be a bad deal!

  "Congratulations to Huang Dao! Lu Ya is a senior from the immortal realm, and Huang has such a good relationship with him, it's really enviable."

  "Heh heh, so-so." Huang Shiren's face didn't have a hint of joy.

  "Huang Daoyou, this stick of yours, why does it look so familiar?" Shen Gong pointed at the wind-and-thunder stick Huang Shiren was using to poke the fire.

  "Oh, I got it from Yun Zhongzi."

  "Huang Daoyou is really lucky, he's actually good friends with Yun Zhongzi Shixiong." Shen Gongbao's heart skipped a beat, filled with hatred. He had originally planned to win him over, but it turns out his relationship with Yun Zhongzi runs deep.

  "I have no relationship with Yun Zhongzi at all."

  "Huang Dao said with a smile, 'This Wind and Thunder Mace is the proud treasure of Yun Zhongzi's senior brother. If he weren't a close friend, how could he possibly give it to you?'"

  "Oh, that's right. Yun Zhongzi and I had some disagreement, and I killed him after he snatched the child." Huang Shiran scratched his head.

  "Robbed!?" Shen Gongbao was dizzy from being surrounded by Huang Shiren, his mouth twitching.

  Stolen from Yun Zhongzi!?! Isn't this equivalent to offending Yun Zhongzi, offending the entire Tian Jiao!?! This guy's guts are too big!

  But think about it, he's Lu Ye's apprentice, and indeed has the capital to be so arrogant.

  Shen Gongbao has always been at odds with Yun Zhongzi and others, but this time, Huang Shiren's words have greatly improved his impression of him.

  "Shen Dao You, you're a disciple of Yuan Shi Tian Zun, I'm still envious of you." Huang Shi Ren said with a sneer.

  "Ah, bird!" Which pot doesn't open, which pot does? Shen Gongbao spat out a mouthful of saliva in front of the bonfire, his righteous indignation filling his chest, and he added oil to the fire as he told Huang Shiren about his experiences on Mount Kunlun.

  We must thoroughly discredit those people from Kunlun Mountain. Otherwise, if this fool mixes with them, how can I have a good life?

  "I've always heard that the Kunlun Mountains' Tianxianism is the most renowned and orthodox school in the world, and Yuanshi Tianzun is a sage of his generation. I never thought it would be like this! It's truly lamentable. Huang Daoyou, I'm disappointed for you."

  "What's Huang Daoyou saying? Huang Daoyrou, where are you going?"

  "Oh, my master told me to go down the mountain and travel around, make some friends, and take a trip to enjoy the scenery and play in the water."

  This is like Lu Ye's style.

  "Huang Daoyou, I have an impolite request, I don't know if I should mention it or not."

  "Please say it, Shendao's friend."

  "Huang Daoyou, it's fate that we know each other. We two, once met, like old times. I'll climb a high branch and become sworn brothers with you of different surnames. What do you think?" Shen Gongbao stared at Huang Shiren with great expectation.

  Jin Dashi, who had been squatting beside him, chuckled to himself: "Big brother is really a bellyful of bad water, beating and scolding, just exploded Jiang Ziya's chrysanthemum, now saying another head inserted into the beehive and becoming sworn brothers with him, what a good skill."

  Huang Shiren made so many charts just for this, isn't it just waiting for Shen Gongbao's sentence?

  "Is that so. Shendao You, I also have great respect for you, but when I came down the mountain, my master said to be cautious in making friends and specifically said not to make friends with petty people... I'm really troubled..." Huang Shiran sighed and glanced twice at Shen Gongbao's sleeve with his bad eyes.

  Shen Gongbao was intelligent enough to understand Huang Shiren's meaning.

  This life is really dark-hearted! Never mind, it's impossible to win him over without shedding some blood.

  " Fellow Taoist, you wouldn't be interested in the things on me, but there is one thing, which I stole from Yun Zhongzi when I went to Mt. Tongnan last time." As he spoke, he carefully took out a jade box from his sleeve and opened it, revealing two apricot-sized immortal peaches inside.

  Xun Zhongzi's immortal apricot! Huang Shiren took one look at this thing and his eyes lit up! He thought to himself: I've hit the jackpot!

  Only two immortal apricots, why does Huang Shiren attach so much importance to them. Everyone, listen carefully as I speak.

  Yun Zhongzi's Zhongnan Mountain is indeed a treasure, but the most precious thing is a single apricot tree. This apricot tree has been hidden in the world for countless years, blooming once every 100,000 years, bearing fruit once every 100,000 years, and only ripening after 100,000 years. Each time, it produces only about ten or so fruits, which are extremely precious and considered top-grade immortal objects.

  In the Investiture of the Gods, under Jiang Ziya's command was a great general named Lei Zhenzi. He was originally an abandoned child picked up by Wen Zhongweng and later taken in as a disciple by Yunzhongzi. When Wen Zhongweng was in trouble, Yunzhongzi sent him down the mountain. Before he left, he told the unlucky child to take a stroll around the back of the mountain. Lei Zhenzi didn't understand Yunzhongzi's intentions and after walking for a while, became extremely hungry and ate two immortal peaches. Suddenly, wings grew from his ribs, his face turned blue, his hair turned red, his teeth protruded, and his body grew to over 6 meters tall. He became the famous Sky War General, all thanks to the power of the two immortal peaches!

  This thing has such power, naturally far exceeding ordinary magic treasures.

  "Huang Dao, don't underestimate this immortal apricot. Yun Zhongzi treasures it dearly! I was lucky to get my hands on it, and today I'm giving it to you as a gift, a token of our meeting." Shen Gongbao thought Huang Shiren didn't appreciate the gift, thinking he looked down on it.

  Shen Gong Bao was clever, but he didn't know the benefits of this immortal apricot. After getting it, he never used it, thinking it was just a slightly more powerful immortal fruit, so he simply gave it to that foolish head.

  "I'll thank you then, Daoist friend. Since you're so generous, just like my master said, you're a trustworthy person. Let's be brothers, that's not bad!" Huang Shiren received the immortal apricot and smiled to himself.

  Shen Gongbao was overjoyed upon hearing these words.

  Two scoundrels, piling up earth to make a stove and inserting grass as incense, after three knocks and nine bows, became sworn brothers. Although Sheng Gongbao was older than Huang Shiren, he humbly addressed the latter as "older brother" due to his own private motives. Huang Shiren, on the other hand, accepted this without hesitation.

  "A'bao, you've been in Kunlun Mountain for so long, have you heard anything about the Investiture of the Gods today?" Now that they had become sworn brothers, Huang Shiren could ask some questions.

  "Does Big Brother also know about this?!" Shen Gongbao was taken aback.

  "Oh, listen to what my cheap master said."

  "It's true." Shen Gong Bao nodded: "I heard it was because of the reason that no one was sent to the Heavenly Court, and also had to go through a great disaster. Therefore, the Taoist ancestor and several saints planned it out. Now, Mount Kunlun has issued an edict, strictly ordering disciples to seal off the cave, focus on cultivation, and not allow private descent from the mountain."

  "Oh. But I heard from Master that Yuanshi Tianzun is going to send Jiang Ziya down the mountain to seal the gods?" Huang Shiren said in an extremely mysterious tone.

  "Jiang Ziya descended the mountain and became a deity!" Shen Gongbao suddenly jumped up: "Big brother, is this true?"

  "My master said. My master also said that in order to seal the gods, several sects will make a big merchant's Jiangshan chaotic, and then send someone to seal the gods to support King Wen of Xi Qi to start an army to punish, in the midst of war, those who die unjustly will be on the list of sealed gods. However, Ah Bao, I'm a bit indignant for you, that Jiang Zi Ya is not as tolerant as you, and he's not as good as you, why should he go down the mountain to enjoy wealth and glory?!"

  Huang Shiren's words made Shen Gongbao's eyes widen in surprise!

  He didn't have the slightest doubt about Huang Shiren's words, after all, they came from Lu Yao. (If Lu Yao knew, he would definitely pinch Huang Shiren to death.) If that were really the case, wouldn't Jiang Ziya be thinking of enjoying all the wealth and glory in the world?!

  Shen Gong Bao can accept anything, but he cannot accept Jiang Zi Ya doing something big. If Jiang Zi Ya wants to go east, he will definitely go west. The two were born to be at odds with each other.

  For a moment, his mind was in a whirl, and even the astute Shen Gongbao was as if struck by lightning.

  "Ah Piao, Jiang Ziya is now being bullied by you. If he really completes the Investiture of the Gods, you will be trampled under his feet forever." Huang Shiren continued to fan the flames.

  "Big brother, you're right! But since this is all arranged by Yuan Shi's bull nose, what can I do?" Shen Gong bowed his head, feeling hopeless.

  "A'bao, this isn't like you to say such things. As a man, one must be strong! Jiang Ziya may have become a god and there's nothing you can do about it, but you still have the ability to prevent him from becoming a god. In this world, heroes are numerous, with your skills, find some like-minded people, if he wants to raise an army, you can go suppress them. A'bao, I'm your big brother, I also know many good brothers, in the future if you want to do great things, as your big brother, I won't say no, I'll be willing to help you out!"

  "Big Brother!" Shen Gongbao's blood was stirred and he felt deeply moved.

  This cheap big brother is a bit silly, but he's generous and loyal. Forget it, Jiang Ziya, you want to be a god? Grandpa will keep arguing with you! Let's see who can outdo each other!

  Shen Gong Bao had made up his mind and was full of fighting spirit, but then a thought flashed across his mind and he hung his head in despair: "Big brother, what you said makes sense, but Yuan Shi that scoundrel has a bad impression on me. If he finds out, he'll crush me with just a finger, what can I do?"

  "This is a great question!" Huang Shiren chuckled and put his arm around Shen Gongbao's shoulder, saying: "I'm a good guy to the end, who made you my brother? To deal with Jiang Ziya, we brothers need to work together. So, you're in Kunlun Mountain, from now on be nice to Jiang Ziya, don't bully him anymore, just follow his lead, and when he comes down to seal the gods, you'll be an inside helper. As for contacting heroes all over the world, brother will help you with that. This way, we two brothers, one in the light and one in the dark, haha, big things can be accomplished!"

  This guy is really stupid! Shen Gongbao burst out laughing. Pulling people and Jiang Ziya to sing a duet, this completely belongs to high-risk action, Yuanshi Tianzun discovered it, definitely no good, he wants to rush over, but himself, since becoming the insider, the danger is much smaller, even if things don't work out, he can easily find an excuse to become a meritorious official of Fengshen, this idea, is simply beneficial to himself.

  "Big brother, I won't say anything else, you're right, brothers for life!"

  "Look, Ah Bao, you're being too polite. I'm your big brother, if I don't help you, who will?!"

  Two scoundrels, both with evil intentions, colluding and scheming together, thus settling the matter of framing Jiangziya.

  They talked all night and when the sky was bright at ten o'clock, Shengong Bao reluctantly bid farewell and drove his cloud chariot back to Mount Kunlun.

  "Big brother, if this seal is real, it's extremely ominous. Why must you insist on taking the lead? What if something happens to you and you end up on the Seal God's list?!" Jin Dashi didn't intervene in the conversation, but he couldn't help worrying about Huang Shiren.

  "Big deal, my good brother, you don't understand this matter, when have you ever seen me suffer a loss?" Huang Shiren laughed.

  "That's right!" Jin Dashi didn't know what Huang Shiren was thinking, but having followed him for so long, he had only seen him take advantage of others and never saw him suffer a loss.

  "On the road, on the road." Huang Shiren glanced in the direction of Kunlun Mountain and sneered: "The Seal of the Gods? Ha ha, I'm not willing to let the heroes of the world become the ashes of you bunch of cow noses!"
