The Great Seminary

Chapter 130: Evil Inheritance
Zhang Gui keenly noticed that the way Lilia addressed him seemed to emphasize his own strength rather than external wealth and power.

He pinched her little hand and made a kissing gesture.

“It is an honor to be a guest in your salon, Lady Lilia.

This is a great place to relax.

It's a pity that I can't indulge in sensual pleasures because I'm practicing some special skills. It's a pity."

Lilia blinked her bright eyes and asked with innocent curiosity:
"The ancient East is truly mysterious, to even imagine there being such a taboo and cruel occupational system.

Wouldn't it be very painful if we couldn't enjoy the love and joy between men and women?"

"It's just a period of time, not a lifetime," Zhang Gui explained with a smile.

Quietly driving the main god cluster 'Tai Sui in the spirit' in the head, practicing the 'Rain Water' technique.

It evolved into a dense "light rain" that seemed both real and unreal.

“You may not have noticed, but the term ‘spirit’, commonly used across the four continents of Earth, represents the mutual restraint between body and soul.

Therefore, in our Eastern world, many of the cultivation methods for the primordial spirit require physical coordination."

The black rain in the air and the slowly flowing fungal carpet on the ground passed over Lilia, but did not even wet a corner of her silk robe.

It was as if everything was an illusion.

But Nanny Long, who followed Lilia like a shadow, had a very solemn expression on her face.

"Winter is coming, Your Excellency, Lilia is not criticizing the legal tradition you inherited.

It is not to explore the secrets of your sect..."

"You misunderstood, respected Mammy. I wasn't demonstrating. I simply wanted to satisfy Miss Lilia's curiosity."

Zhang Gui dispersed the Rain Water Technique, calmed the movement of the Divine Cluster, and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry if that was presumptuous."

"That's nothing, Mr. Yang. On the contrary, I find it very interesting."

Lilia, who seemed to be always full of curiosity, shook her head and said:
"Mammy, this is just an illusory black rain..."

“Miss, that’s not some black rain.

Rather, it is a 'black realm' that evolved from a very sophisticated Eastern spiritual method combined with the power left by a powerful and ancient god.

Fortunately, His Excellency, Winter is Coming, has no hostility."

Nanny Long interrupted Lilia seriously.

"Otherwise, if you are trapped in it, death may be the best outcome!"

In the classics of the new gods of Xihezhou, antiquity represents barbarism, and black, the opposite of the holy white, represents evil.

Lilia opened her mouth in shock. "Really? This is horrible."

Nanny Long gently patted the back of Lilia's hand, as if to comfort her.

Afterwards, he warned Zhang Gui seriously,

“Sir, the power of the God Bush you displayed this time is completely different from last time, even if the shepherds of the new god will not pay attention to the beliefs of the Easterners.

It's also best not to display it in sensitive places like churches, White Eagle Bank, or even the holy scales of a fair contract."

When the words fell, Perry showed a surprised expression, and asked in a not-so-subtle way:

"Madame Long, is the inheritance of the Divine Bush in Liyang so evil?"

Nanny Long didn't answer directly, but just nodded and added,
“Actually, all powers are the same.

True good and evil come from the actions of those who possess power."

"Your understanding of good and evil is exactly the same as mine." Zhang Gui shamelessly expressed his agreement after hearing this.

Then applause of approval was heard from all around.

In the extraordinary world, extremely powerful evil often represents the terrifying power of heresy.

People who make a living on distant islands far away from the order of the mainland often respect this kind of "power" very much!
This also made Zhang Gui not have the nerve to go along with the corrupt officials, so he started talking to a group of wealthy people in the Civilized Pioneer City.

Then we had some drinks, played a few rounds of cards, and exchanged business cards.

Several of them even made appointments with Zhang Gui to play cards and go hunting together at a later date, implicitly expressing their desire for a deeper friendship.

Zhang Gui naturally agreed to all of them.

By the time he left Qingmi Salon late at night, he knew it clearly.

I finally integrated into the upper class of the three cities of Civilization Pioneer, Roujin, and Sacred Ode.

The purpose is achieved.

After saying goodbye to Perry, Zhang Gui walked into a dark alley and disappeared into the darkness.

The next second, he appeared in Zhihai Town, his fiefdom in Song Ming State.

The next morning, before daybreak, the hot and humid summer air had already been carried into the wind, making people sweat all over.

The first store on the commercial street next to the port is "Dagui Grocery and Sauce Factory".

Although the porridge and pancakes are inexpensive and delicious, they are not in line with the solar terms, so the breakfast business has become quiet.

There was only a middle-aged man wearing a thin cotton robe and a goatee, sitting on a mat and drinking porridge.

Zhang Gui took small steps and walked into my mother's shop.

He greeted the shop assistant and then filled a bowl with thick porridge.

Wrap the hot bread with shrimp paste and fermented fish sauce and eat it with big mouthfuls.

"Yanglonghu is such a treat.

It's so hot, yet you're still so energetic and vigorous, while I'm feeling wilted."

The middle-aged man with a goatee glanced at Zhang Gui and suddenly spoke slowly.

Zhang Gui glanced at the man and asked:
"Who is your Excellency?"

"Now it is you, the Prime Minister of the Shogunate, the Imperial College student Lu Zhenduan."

"Being a student at the Imperial Academy is equivalent to being a juren (juren)."

But the same as Jinshi does not need Jinshi, such as Madam is not Madam.

"How can you, a 'fake scholar', become the chancellor of my Zhihai Longhu Shogunate?"

A trace of anger flashed across Lu Zhenduan's face, but he didn't really explode. He just gritted his teeth and said:

“It’s naturally King Zhen’s appointment.

On that day, Yuanshan Guard General Bao Rie Shen personally led an army of 100,000 soldiers to attack Zhihai Town.

You, the Dragon Tiger, are on the battlefield..."

"When the Yuanshan Guard General Bao Ri'e's troops invaded Zhihai Town, did His Royal Highness Prince Zhen set up camp in Zhihai Town?"

"Of course there is."

"Then, Your Highness, have you, in your capacity as the Imperial Envoy of the Eastern Guangdong Province, issued an order to our Dragon and Tiger Shogunate to mobilize the troops?"

Lu Zhenduan opened his mouth and said, "That's not the case, but..."

"But what?" Zhang Gui said with a chuckle, "The head of the imperial court is 'as if I were here in person'.

The Shogun claimed to be both civil and military.

This has been the rule since ancient times, there is no room for negotiation.

King Zhen, as an imperial envoy, ordered the establishment of a "temporary residence" in Zhihai Town, the base of my Dragon and Tiger Shogunate.

As the ancients said, a snake cannot survive without a head, and a bird cannot fly without wings.

Considering the overall situation, I even gave up the shogunate's official residence.

Where else could they deploy troops and march to defend Zhihai to resist foreign invaders?

If you are not convinced, I will personally submit a memorial to the emperor and explain the whole story clearly.

How about letting His Majesty make the final decision?"
