I Become a Martial Arts God in the Chaotic Demon World-Chapter 506 Ji Yuanfang’s Purpose

After the Blood Demon Sect remnant incident, Han Zheng started to harbor a trace of vigilance towards Ji Yuanfang.

Before Ji Taichang ascended the throne, this guy was already scheming something, even silencing Yan Xuankong, the Garrison Commander, for some secrets.

Thinking about it carefully, Ji Yuanfang can be said to be daring beyond measure.

Just from what Han Zheng knows, Ji Yuanfang has once colluded with the Black Mountain Demon.

The rapid development of the Black Mountain Demon, sweeping across the Southern Mountain, couldn't have been without Ji Yuanfang's support.

Also, the Blood Demon Sect remnants couldn't have possibly revived without Ji Yuanfang's backing, daring to even play the god-making game.

One could say that the things Ji Yuanfang has done, though devoid of evidence, would suffice to warrant his death a hundred times over if even one of them had proof.

Currently, Han Zheng's question is, what is Ji Yuanfang plotting?

He is now already a paramount minister, with power and influence to the extent that even the Emperor Ji Taichang cannot easily move against him, only able to find excuses to reprimand.

Going further could only be that supreme imperial throne.

But the problem is, with the Dragon Vein, as long as Ji Yuanfang ascends to the throne at his age, it would mark his death day.

He couldn't possibly be in such a hurry to experience a fleeting moment as Emperor and thus impatiently seek death, could he?

It's exactly because of this point that although Ji Taichang is apprehensive and dissatisfied with his Imperial Uncle, he hasn't truly thought of moving against him.

After all, given Ji Yuanfang's network, truly acting against him would almost certainly result in mutual destruction.

Han Zheng pondered for a moment and asked, "What is the strength of Si Tianli, the Great General of the Dingnan Army? If they come to Southern Mountain, who will take charge?"

Beside him, Chu Tianyuan said, "The Dingnan Army is an old name among the sixteen Martial Guards of the Court, and Si Tianli is a senior martial artist of the Yang God Realm.

The military has no subordinate relationship with our Demon Cleansing Bureau, so it doesn't matter who you follow.

The rebellion of the barbarian tribes on West River Road has been ongoing for a while, and the Dingnan Army has been exterminating the tribes. It should be almost done now.

Si Tianli would only come to Southern Mountain after the tribal rebellion is completely eradicated.

If you can quickly pacify the unrest, you might not even have the chance to meet him.

Yet, I and the Grand Commander still can't understand why Ji Yuanfang insists on having Si Tianli meddle in Southern Mountain.

In any case, during this journey to Southern Mountain, you'd better be cautious of Si Tianli."

Han Zheng nodded and briskly bid farewell to Qi Zhangwu, ready to set off for Southern Mountain.

Once Han Zheng left, Chu Tianyuan nodded lightly and said, "The Grand Commander indeed discovered a good talent. This Han Zheng is an excellent choice, both in terms of strength and capability."

"He wasn't discovered by me but by Chen Baxian. I only trust Chen Baxian."

Suddenly, Qi Zhangwu said, "I remember, Elder Chu, your only descendant seems to be under Han Zheng's command, right? This guy is quite aggressive in his actions, offering many opportunities for achievement under him but also increasing risk. Do you want me to temporarily transfer him away from Han Zheng, to stay in the Capital?"

Chu Tianyuan shook his head, "After returning to the Capital Demon Suppression Department, I've placed Xinghe under Han Zheng to hone his skills.

Among the many Xuanjia Guards in the Demon Cleansing Bureau, who hasn't fought their way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood?

Others can die; there's no reason my offspring couldn't die. freēnovelkiss.com

Moreover, if Tianxing proves unworthy, I would naturally transfer him away from the Demon Suppression Department. He doesn't deserve this profound armor; I can still ensure his lifelong wealth and fortune.

But since he wants to achieve something in the Demon Suppression Department, he can't remain a flower in a greenhouse.

Without experiencing storms of blood and wind, he won't become capable."

Qi Zhangwu gently nodded, a slight respect in his gaze towards Chu Tianyuan.

In Han Zheng's view, Qi Zhangwu, the Grand Commander, seemed a bit lazy and unreliable but rather approachable.

In truth, Qi Zhangwu is the youngest Grand Commander in the history of the Demon Cleansing Bureau, with outstanding talent and extraordinary ability.

Internally, he ruthlessly clears out the bureau's parasites; externally, he turns the tide, blocking major invasions from the Country of Demons.

Therefore, internally, Qi Zhangwu is a very proud person, few capable of catching his eye or worthy of his respect.

An elder like Chu Tianyuan, despite holding a high position, has devoted everything to the bureau and is indeed worthy of his admiration.

After resting for two months, the Jing'an Guard was now at its peak in spirit and vigor.

As soon as Han Zheng finished gathering the Jing'an Guard, Wen Tingyun arrived, just in time to set off together.

"Oh, I've heard, the Grand Commander has appointed you as a Patrol Envoy again. This time you return to Southern Mountain, can't you say you're going home gloriously?"

Wen Tingyun chuckled lightly, looking at Han Zheng.

Han Zheng smiled wryly and shook his head, "What homecoming in glory? It's just cleaning up the mess. Over there in Southern Mountain, the region is leaderless, the Smell Fragrance Sect rebels, the martial world forces are in disorder, all waiting for me to sort it out.

And the Garrison Commander Ren Tianying, if he's around, might not view me favorably; the position of Patrol Envoy is just to deter him."

Wen Tingyun sneered, "The excellent situation left by Chen Zhenfu was ruined by him, downright incompetent fool!"

"If he were stupid, it would be fine, just afraid he isn't stupid, merely refusing to conform."

Han Zheng lightly shook his head.

If Ren Tianying were truly stupid, acting cautiously and timidly wouldn't cause such major problems.

Yet he refuses to accept Chen Baxian, aiming to outperform him, leading to significant issues.

With the Jing'an Guard fully assembled and Wen Tingyun also present, Han Zheng took everyone directly on the journey.

The situation over in Southern Mountain was unknown, and it was uncertain whether Xu Cunbao and the elders were in danger; Han Zheng couldn't afford to delay.

However, just as they exited the Capital City's gate, a figure leapt down from the gate tower, landing in front of Han Zheng.

"You and the Jing'an Guard heading out on a mission again?"

The person who suddenly appeared was Bu Tiange.

At this moment, hanging on the long sword in his hand was a wine gourd, from which he took an occasional sip, appearing quite carefree.

"Something's happened over in Southern Mountain; it urgently needs me to lead the Jing'an Guard to handle it."

Han Zheng looked at Bu Tiange in surprise, "What were you doing up on the gate tower? Are you allowed up there?"

"Got tired of watching those girls dance in the brothel, watching the scenery for a change."

Bu Tiange shrugged, "Those soldiers guarding the gate certainly wouldn't let me up there, but they didn't know when I wanted to go up."

Han Zheng was momentarily speechless.

Bu Tiange dared to wander leisurely atop the gate out of boredom, not fearing being shot into a sieve.

Moreover, he found feeling bored quite extraordinary.

He would rather watch scenery from the gate tower than cultivate, a testament to being privileged due to natural talent.

"Since I'm idle anyway, how about taking me along with you to Southern Mountain this time? Having lived in Southern Mountain for many years, I've yet to truly explore it myself."

Han Zheng asked in surprise, "You're not afraid Qingming Sword Pavilion will send people to hunt you? In the Capital at least, Qingming Sword Pavilion doesn't dare to act recklessly, but outside, they won't have such reservations."

"No matter, after being chased by them for so many years, suddenly not having them on my tail feels rather uneasy."

Upon hearing Bu Tiange say this, Han Zheng refrained from saying more.

With such a formidable ally like Bu Tiange, Han Zheng felt more assured.

Even though he has now entered the Half-step Yang God Realm and has confidence in facing a Great Grandmaster of the Yang God Realm head-on.

But with Bu Tiange alongside, this confidence increased further.

Han Zheng initially took about a month to travel from Southern Mountain to the Capital.

However, that was because they weren't in much of a hurry back then; Chen Baxian wasn't rushing.

Yet now, the situation in Southern Mountain is urgent, and no one can predict what changes may occur during this period.

Therefore, Han Zheng led the Jing'an Guard in a swift march, arriving in Southern Mountain's territory within half a month.

Han Zheng even passed through Black Stone County again but didn't have time to visit.

Upon entering Southern Mountain's heartland, Han Zheng's heart sank.

Some small counties had already fallen, and the sky was filled with the blood-tinted incense of the Smell Fragrance Sect believers.

Considering Southern Mountain's heartland is like this, one can imagine the current situation over in Kai Ping Prefecture.
