My descendants burn incense and worship me as a real immortal

Chapter 666 Epilogue
The introduction to Cang Jingkong states that it is the combination of countless wills, so the sudden change must be due to a shift in ideology!

The reward for Cang Jingkong's contributions to the dynasty has disappeared, leaving only the evil Cang Jingkong who hates outsiders and insults the people.

The red flower in its brain is the reason for its mutation!

If it weren't for the puzzle solvers reminding him that "the story is the key," Yang Genshuo would still be stuck on the problem of how to defeat a Nascent Soul cultivator while only at the Golden Core stage.

At this moment, a golden finger in the sky pointed at Cang Jingkong's head, inside which a faint red flower appeared.

"I see!"

"That's it!"

Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin, as if by telepathy, pinpointed the location indicated by the ancestor.

"Let's go!"

"Final blow!"

Their strength was waning, and now they only had this one attack left!

The two used all the power they could control.

The Flame Monarch and the Azure Sea Stone Spirit, two powerful celestial manifestations, joined forces to unleash an unparalleled attack!
boom! ! !
It directly discards all the fancy tricks, and all the power is condensed into the Dharma Form of Heaven and Earth, which can destroy everything with a single strike.

Cang Jingkong blocked the two men's fists with both hands.

But under the immense force of the two men, its fist began to collapse, followed by the frantic squeezing of the heads composed of distorted faces.

The combined power of the two people was poured into its brain!
puff! ! !
Blood spurts out!

A red flower in its mind was forced out!

It shone brightly above Cang Jingkong's head.

Yang Qiangjin reached out to grab it, but couldn't grasp it at all. Her strength was slowly fading away, and the hunger in her stomach was causing her mind to start hallucinating. Everything from the past began to flash before her eyes.

From growing up on the Lingmiao Continent as a child, to meeting Li Fan in the Da Nai Dynasty, to Li Minsi, and now to today.

The most memorable moments of my life flashed before my eyes like paintings.

Call ~
The Flame Monarch lost its power, and the hundred-meter-tall Heaven and Earth Dharma Form that had collapsed the heavens and earth disappeared, leaving only Yang Qiangjin's ordinary cultivator body.

Yang Min is a little better, but he is also on the verge of his limit.

He used his last bit of strength to try and grab the red flower, but he was always just a little short and couldn't catch it.

Just then, a blood-red rice stalk flew out from Yang Min's storage ring.

She guided Yang Min's hand and led him to grasp the red flower.

boom!
The moment Yang Zhu caught the flower, the red domain disappeared, and the whole world fell silent.

Those distorted faces gradually shrank into the red flowers.

Cang Jingkong's body slowly shrank, and all the bubbles and swelling on his body disappeared.

A moment later, he transformed into a male court official dressed in a blue robe.

He was holding a red rice stalk in his hand.

"If this new variety of grain, born from the most wicked place, can be harvested, countless people in this dynasty will be able to have a full meal."

All the bloodshed and fear vanished, and the whole world turned white.

There were still cartloads of grain on the ground that they had just offered up.

Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min's stomach wounds began to heal, and the feeling of hunger disappeared.

It was as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.

Yang Min has returned to his normal size, and he has used his strength to the fullest.

Cang Jingkong, dressed in a green robe with only his face visible, was now spotless. He gently placed the Blood Rice Ear back into Yang Min's hand.

"Unfortunately, what's done is done, and the imperial court no longer has time to plant them."

Yang Min thoughtfully put the flower away, but his eyes never left the red flower in his hand.

At a crucial moment, the Blood Rice Ear weakened Cang Jingkong's power by one point, helping him to grab the red flower in Cang Jingkong's head, which eventually returned to his hand.

Now he has [Blood Ear] in one hand and an unknown red flower in the other.

The Flower of Greed

[Rank: Heavenly Rare Treasure]

[Attribute: None]

[This flower of greed, which embodies the will of countless people who leeched off the granaries of the ancient Da Nai Dynasty, has brought misfortune and disaster to the dynasty. Its formation signifies the dynasty's decay and possesses the power to incite evil in people's hearts. It is of great help to cultivators in forming their own domains.]

[After refining, one can gain a large amount of cultivation power, greatly increase the strength of their divine sense, and gain great resistance to all soul control spells. Future cultivation of soul-related spells will be twice as effective.]

This item can be used by cultivators at the Great Perfection of the Golden Core stage to break through to the Nascent Soul stage, greatly increasing the success rate.

"Another Heavenly-grade treasure that can help someone advance to the Nascent Soul stage!"

The white flower that was stolen before was the "Flower of Abundance," while this one is the "Flower of Greed," like two sides of the same coin, with completely opposite abilities.

But they are all good things that can greatly increase the probability of a person advancing to the Nascent Soul stage!
After one was taken, a new one appeared!
It's the treasure that those two half-step Nascent Soul cultivators need most!

"This is incredibly lucky!"

Yang Genshuo sighed, but then immediately laughed self-deprecatingly: "That's true. My luck was already high, so it's normal to get treasures that match my needs."

Having good luck is like having a cheat code that automatically grants you the best rewards.

As expected, Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin were delighted when the [attribute card] appeared.

"nice one!"

Yang Qiangjin, who was already extremely weak, stood up because she was no longer plagued by the strange curse and no longer felt hungry.

Although still weak, at least he can move around without worry.

"I was just framed by a villain, which brought out the dark side of my heart, causing you all to suffer."

Cang Jingkong bowed slightly to express his apology.

At this moment, he no longer possessed the imposing aura of a Nascent Soul cultivator, nor was he as terrifying as a demon king as before. He was just like an ordinary minor official in charge of a granary.

Ordinary, yet exuding an air of officialdom.

This was the first time they had ever been completely honest with each other.

Yang Min observed for a moment and confirmed that Cang Jingkong was no longer attacking them, knowing that they had passed this hurdle.

"May I ask who you are, sir?"

"I am Cang Jingkong, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue and the Governor of Granaries of the Da Nai Dynasty. I am responsible for overseeing grain storage affairs throughout the country, including the disbursement of salary rations, the transportation of military rations, the requisition of civilian rations, and many other grain-related matters."

"So it was Minister Cang. I wonder why you've become like this? Both of your states just now were very powerful and terrifying."

"Because my physical body died long ago, the 'me' I am now is the fusion of countless wills that have tainted the warehouses of the Great Nai Dynasty. I do not have complete control over my current body. I have only temporarily awakened after losing the Flower of Abundance and the Flower of Greed. But I will eventually become that kind of life again."

Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin were both somewhat surprised to hear this answer.

"When will Vice Minister Cang turn white, and how will he turn red?"

"When the world is full, I will become the white will; when desire leads me down into the abyss, I will become the red will."

"In other words, you will also transform into that red monster form."

"So now that you've taken my [Flower of Greed], hurry up and leave. Don't come back here. Let me rot alone in this granary. I don't want to hurt anyone else." Cang Jingkong now speaks like a normal human official, seemingly worried about doing something bad.

And he was right, everyone had actually gotten what they needed most.

The returns are completely comparable to the previous "Flower of Abundance".

"We understand, but there's one more thing we need to ask you."

"It's alright to say so."

"Do you know that guard Li from before? Why did he steal the treasure you gave us?"

"Guard Li once worked in the granary department, but was later punished for embezzlement and transferred away. I don't know what happened to him after that. He has a strange aura that can arouse my great anger."

As Cang Jingkong said this, his anger was stirred up, and he became the person he just was, wanting to kill everyone.

"Do you know any way to restrain Guard Li and enable us to defeat him?"

Yang Min looked at Cang Jingkong with hope in his eyes.

Cang Jingkong shook his head apologetically: "My abilities are very limited. If you can lure him over, I might be able to help, but I'm not sure I can definitely help you."

Yang Qiangjin curled her lips.

"Forget it, what if we get turned again? We can't handle two big guys like that."

"Min, the Ancestor's miracles cannot be bestowed twice a day. We have already used up our power today, you know that?"

Yang Qiangjin has fought alongside the Ancestor many times and has a deep understanding of how to properly utilize the Ancestor.

This was Yang Min's first time fighting together, and Yang Qiangjin specifically reminded him of the limits of the ancestor's power, fearing that he might not understand them.

“I know, Auntie. These are all recorded in our Yang family ancestral hall. I remember them.”

"That's good. We need to find a place to rest properly today."

"Wait a minute, there's still one thing we haven't finished."

Yang Min turned to Cang Jingkong and asked again, "Minister Cang, we accepted the task from the starving official to escort grain to the capital. The hardships we endured along the way are beyond words. Now, have we completed our mission?"

"Of course, your food can be used in many places."

"So, can we leave now?"

"Leave? Where to? Do you mean to leave the city? With the chaos and war outside, that doesn't seem like a good option."

"Ok?"

This left not only Yang Min speechless, but also the mystery solver and Yang Genshuo stunned.

They won't let us leave?
"Wait a minute. How do we leave this legendary place?"

Cang Jingkong couldn't answer this question, and he could only stay in the granary.

After failing to find any other key issues, the group bid farewell to Cang Jingkong.

After gathering again outside, they discussed the matter for a while.
"If completing the grain transport is not the end, then we must find those two starving officials. The story begins with them and it will also end with them."

But they searched the entire granary but could not find the starving official again.

Even the people from the warehouse have disappeared.

"That's strange. Weren't there many officials when the grain was brought in this morning? Why is there not a single one now?"

"Was it Guard Li who caused this problem? Did he set us up?"

“This guy has serious problems with everything from his identity to his actions; we have to find him.”

Yang Zhu said this, which earned him a glare from Yang Qiangjin.

"What do you do after you find him? You go and fight him? Even with the help of the Ancestor, we have absolutely no chance of winning against a Nascent Soul cultivator."

The attack on Cang Jingkong was actually a weakness that the old ancestor found, which awakened Cang Jingkong from that state.

Otherwise, it's hard to say how much damage Cang Jingkong would suffer if they stubbornly endured it, but they would definitely die.

That deadly hunger curse caused Yang Qiangjin to experience a period of rapid-fire visual progression.
Really will die.

The methods of Nascent Soul stage cultivators are far more powerful than theirs.

There's a difference of one dimension.

Yang Min also agreed with Yang Qiangjin's statement.

"My aunt and I will rest first. If you want to do anything, try not to alert them. Probe carefully and wait for us for a day."

Whether it's the blessing from the ancestors or their spiritual power, it needs at least a day to recover.

"Okay! We'll try to find out the information."

Li Minsi agreed.

The puzzle solvers also offered their ideas and solutions.

Yang Qiangjin and Yang Minyun were treated for their injuries.

A day passed quickly.

The next day, news came from outside.

"We've captured Guard Li!"

Upon hearing this news, Yang Min and Yang Qiangjin flew out of their rooms!

"What happened to the kidney?"

"Who caught him? Was anyone hurt?"

On this day, with the help of their own top-grade healing pills, Yang Qiangjin and Yang Min had recovered to about 70-80% of their injuries.

Upon hearing this news, no one could sit still.

The messenger was number nine, the riddle solver.

"It wasn't us who arrested him, it was the imperial court. Guard Li was arrested by the government for colluding with the corpses outside and was imprisoned at lightning speed."

"what?"

Not to mention Yang Qiangjing and Yang Min, even Yang Genshuo, who fast-forwarded through the video, was stunned.

In the time it took him to eat two mouthfuls of rice, a formidable enemy, whom he looked up to with awe, was gone.

"How did you do it?"

"Report this! We know that Guard Li is a corpse because of your divine power, Ancestor, but others don't know. Even those who have been in contact with him can't tell at all."

“Since this guard Li’s identity is suspicious, let’s just sell him out. In the current tense situation, if the court knew that there were spies lurking around them, they would be even more anxious than we are. That’s why we told the government yesterday afternoon, and they caught and sentenced him at noon today.”

At this moment, the messenger, Number Nine, added: "This kind of person should be sentenced to death. He'll be dragged to the execution ground and beheaded in a bit. I came back to tell you to go and see."

"lead the way!"

The crowd rushed to the market.

Yang Genshuo was somewhat surprised by this move, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that doing it this way was actually the easiest and most convenient.

"In the land of legends, anything can happen as long as it is logically consistent. Our strength cannot defeat everyone, but wisdom can utilize power beyond our own capabilities."

Yang Genshuo admitted that the Extraordinary Realm was very powerful, but this was the capital city.

The Yang family, along with the onlookers, stood at the execution ground, awaiting the execution of the corpse disguised as a human.
