Wen Zhong was deep in thought when he heard Zhao Gongming's words.
'Food is the most important thing for the people', didn't these words just explain the direction of governing the country?
If everyone could eat and wear warm clothes, where could there not be peace?
As expected, Fellow Daoist Zhao is a talented person.
Thinking of this, Wen Zhong's idea of persuading Zhao Gongming to become an official lingered in his mind again.
"Fellow Daoist Zhao, you're right. In my opinion, you're also a talented person. Since you've already left the mountain, why don't you try to leave a mark on the human world?
Firstly, he could use the dynasty's providence to increase his cultivation.
Secondly, if you have any achievements in the future, you can also enjoy incense offerings.”
"Fellow Daoist Wen, you don't have to persuade me," Zhao Gongming replied.
As for Fellow Daoist Wen, although the fate of the dynasty is good, how can he escape in the future due to karma?
Fellow Daoist Wen, have you ever thought about what you would do if something happened to the dynasty?”
Hearing Zhao Gongming's words, Wen Zhong's mood was a little indescribable.
Why did you mention the change of dynasty?
Now, I'm the one advising you to become an official, but you're the one advising me to retire.
Seeing Wen Zhong's puzzled expression, Zhao Gongming tried to persuade him again,"Fellow Daoist Wen, we cultivators don't have to live in seclusion forever.
But if he interfered too much in human path matters, even though he could gain temporary benefits, it would not benefit him in the long run.
Moreover, now that the great calamity is coming, if you don't withdraw in time, I'm afraid it will be too late for you to regret!
Don't blame me for saying too much. I only told you because you came from Jie School and your actions are in line with my views.”
Zhao Gongming's words were not unnecessary.
Today, I, Zhao Gongming, have already reminded you and made it clear that I don't want to get too involved in the matters of the dynasty.
In the future, I will give you face and help you a little, but don't expect me to fight with you to the end.
Moreover, if you get on the God List in the future, don't blame me.
I've already advised you, but you didn't listen.
I, Zhao, have extended a hand of friendship to you. This favor has been given and you have received it.
In the future, if I need your help, not to mention the friendship between us, just based on my actions today, you can't refuse.
Upon hearing Zhao Gongming's words, Wen Zhong knew that he was just reminding him out of goodwill that a calamity was coming and that he had to run away quickly.
However, Wen Zhong, who was a human, was unwilling to leave just like that.
Firstly, Master Wen Zhong had once said that he had no hope in the immortal path and that he should have wealth in the human world.
This didn't mean that Wen Zhong didn't have the opportunity to cultivate immortality.
It was because it was difficult to achieve too much on the path of cultivation. For example, it was difficult to achieve the Great Luo Dao Fruit and jump out of the reincarnation cycle. It would not suffer the immortal tribulation that happened every five hundred years and could live a long life.
Now that this wish had yet to come true, how could Wen Zhong be willing to give up the foundation he had laid before and leave?
Secondly, he had used the luck of the Shang Dynasty to cultivate over the years. Although he had repaid part of the karma, he was still far from paying it off.
Wen Zhong was only a middle-aged man, but he was able to cultivate from a Mystic Immortal cultivation base when he left the mountain to his current Golden Immortal cultivation base in a short period of time. The luck of the Shang Dynasty played an important role in this.
How could Wen Zhong get away with such a huge debt?
Swallowing the food in his mouth, Wen Zhong slowly said,""Thank you for your kind advice, Fellow Daoist. I will naturally remember it in my heart. Unfortunately, I have my own difficulties.
My teacher once said that I had no hope of becoming an immortal. The reason why I could have such cultivation now was because of the luck of the Shang Dynasty.
If I leave the Shang Dynasty, my path will be ruined!”
Zhao Gongming was about to speak when a wretched figure slowly approached him in his divine sense.
Sure enough, a voice came from outside the door after a few breaths.
"I, Shen Gongbao, have come to visit. May I know which fellow daoist is here?”
When Zhao Gongming heard the name 'Shen Gongpao', the killing intent in his mind immediately soared.
Wen Zhong saw Zhao Gongming's strange expression and asked,""Fellow Daoist Zhao…"
Zhao Gongming immediately came back to his senses when he heard Wen Zhong's voice.
Shen Gongbao could not die for the time being, so he had to stay alive.
Even if he wanted to kill him today, it would probably be difficult for him to succeed.
For such an important chess piece, Zhao Gongming was not sure if Primordial Heaven Supreme had left any tricks on him.
It wasn't time for Jiang Ziya to go down the mountain yet.
He had planned for many years, so he must have some tricks up his sleeve.
If he attacked today, he would not be able to kill him. Instead, he would expose his hostility for no reason. This would not go well with his plan.
Moreover, Primordial Heaven Supreme had the intention to let Shen Gongpao act.
Zhao Gongming also had the intention to borrow his hand to eliminate some bad disciples for Jie School.
Suppressing the killing intent in his heart, Zhao Gongming said to Wen Zhong with a smile,"It seems that my food today is extraordinary. It actually made you two come.
How fortunate! How fortunate!"
Then, Zhao Gongming said to Shen Gongbao, who was outside the door,"Since Fellow Daoist Shen is here, please come in!”
Shen Gongpao didn't look at the living room. He cupped his fists and said with a smile,""I smelled a strange fragrance here and came to take a look. Please forgive me for disturbing you!”
Shen Gongpao thought that his behavior was appropriate, but in Wen Zhong's eyes, he was a pervert with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks.
Zhao Gongming, who had already suppressed his killing intent, replied with a smile,"It is my fortune to be able to attract you here with a meal. Please take a seat, Fellow Daoist Shen.”
Shen Gongbao sat down politely and asked,""I am Shen Gongbao, a cultivator from Kunlun Mountain.”
Wen Zhong was a little unhappy when he heard Shen Gongbao introduce himself. However, his years of noble life had taught him a complete set of etiquette.
Therefore, he suppressed the displeasure in his heart and replied,"This poor Daoist Wen Zhong is the Grand Preceptor of Great Shang!”
"I'm Zhao Gongming, a Qi Refinement Warrior of Mount Emei!”
Hearing Wen Zhong and Zhao Gongming's answers, Shen Gongbao was overjoyed.
He felt that he had made the right decision to come today.
If he could not see through the cultivation of a Qi Refinement Warrior of Mount Emei, it proved that this person's cultivation was profound and extraordinary.
The other Grand Preceptor of Great Shang had a high cultivation level and a high status.
He had sneaked down the mountain to rope in some cultivators so that he could fight Jiang Ziya in the future and prove that he was not weaker than him.
If he could get the help of these two, it would be beneficial to him in the future.
Shen Gongbao wanted to befriend Zhao Gongming, and although Wen Zhong didn't like him, he wouldn't be rude.
For a moment, the three of them, who had different thoughts, appeared to be having a good time.
However, Shen Gongbao, who was cunning by nature, could tell from Wen Zhong's behavior that Wen Zhong did not like him.
Although Wen Zhong hid it well, Shen Gongbao, who was proficient in this, still noticed some clues.
He tried his best to change Wen Zhong's opinion of him.
But who is Wen Zhong?
How could he not see through Shen Gongpao's intentions?
