    In front of me is a black stone that looks unsightly and faintly smells bad. I don't know where it came from.

    King Zhou was somewhat annoyed and asked sharply, "What is this?"

    The Dragon King of the Jing River was utterly dumbfounded. He couldn't bring himself to utter the prepared speech, which included introducing the treasure, flattering King Zhou, and asking for permission to rebuild a temple, so that he could once again attract human incense and regrow his limbs.

    He wasn't an idiot. Seeing that the jade mirror he had prepared to offer had turned into a stone, without any traces of magic, his mind raced twice and he knew that Fe Zhong had been secretly switching it.

    "You thief? Is it you who's playing tricks?"

    He couldn't understand the other person's way of thinking. If I offer the jade mirror, isn't that beneficial to the great Shang? The stability of the Shang Dynasty and its altars would benefit you as a Middle Counselor, so why would you secretly obstruct it?

    Based on his experiences during this period, he suddenly realized the truth and pointed to Fe Zhong, addressing King Zhou: "Your Majesty, this man is from Xiqi!"

    King Zhou was taken aback, then burst into laughter: "Hahaha! A Middle Counselor being from Xiqi? You crazy fool, you're talking nonsense! Come on, take this man down! March him out of the South Gate and behead him!"

    At present, the Yin Dynasty is strong and the Xiqi Kingdom is weak. People who want to make a fortune by providing help in the midst of difficulty are certainly among them, but Fe Zhong definitely does not belong to this group. King Zhou himself felt that he had enough insight to recognize that.

    He immediately ordered the palace guards to capture the Dragon King of the Jing River.

    Two burly men, one on either side, grabbed the Dragon King of the Jing River's arms. One of them, who was particularly unscrupulous, even kicked away his cane and then pressed down hard on the Dragon King's neck, preparing to drag him away to be executed.

    The Dragon King of the Jing River was angry.

    I came here in good faith to present you with the jade mirror, and this is how you treat me?

    His gaze at Fei Zhong and King Zhou was as if it were on fire, his hands clenched into fists, ready to "debate" with this pair of ruler and subject.

    The next moment, the qi of the Yin Dynasty sensed his hostility and instantly turned into something tangible, heavy as a mountain, pressing on his shoulders and making him almost suffocate.

    The Dragon King of the Jing River tried and found it wouldn't work.

    In the palace of the Emperor of Yin, in the prosperity pavilion, if he dared to move hands, the qi of the Yin Dynasty could crush him into fine powder, and even Heaven wouldn't be able to save him.

    I really can't afford to get into it. I have to leave now, right?

    He shook his shoulder and used his physical strength to push back the two palace guards. More guards with weapons surged forward, and he seized a golden mace, swinging it with great force, cutting through the palace hall in one breath.

    From a distance, he saw the butler of Fe's residence carrying a black package, running suspiciously towards the palace gate. Outraged, his face turned red as he shouted and threw a golden hammer, directly killing the butler of Fe's residence within a hundred meters. Afterwards, he picked up the package and found that it contained his own jade mirror.

    The qi of the Yin Dynasty pressed down on the Dragon King of the Jing River, preventing him from riding on clouds. He could only hold the package and hobble out with a broken leg.

    "Protect the emperor! Protect the emperor! This scoundrel must be an assassin from Xiqi. You few, protect the emperor, the rest of you, follow me to kill the traitor!" Fe Zhong realized he had caused trouble and shouted at the top of his lungs.

    He grabbed a long spear from one of the palace guards, seemingly in a hurry but actually moving slowly to pursue them.

    In recent years, there is no clear boundary between literature and martial arts, and it is common to be a military general or a scholar-official. King Lang of the Eastern Han Dynasty, during the late Han and Three Kingdoms period, could still ride his horse, swing his sword and engage in several rounds of combat with Taishi Ci when facing Sun Ce's army......

    Fe Zhong is not skilled in martial arts, but he does have some knowledge, and he's not a scholar who can't lift a chicken feather.

    King Zhou was outraged. "This villainous scoundrel, Xiqi actually dares to send assassins!"

    "Fe Zhong, catch this madman and display his head in public!" King Zhou's face was full of anger. He threw his Dragon and Phoenix Sword to Fe Zhong as he spoke.

    The Dragon King of the Jing River was running ahead, while Fe Zhong and a group of people were chasing after him.

    As soon as they left the prosperity pavilion, the pressure of the qi reduced, and the Dragon King of the Jing River no longer cared about shocking the world. He directly rode on clouds to escape.

    Although Master Wen is leading a large army to conquer the northern sea, there are still many high-ranking scholars in the Yin Dynasty during this period.

    General Zhang Guifang of the Green Dragon Office and his vanguard, Feng Lin, are currently in Chaogou City.

    General Zhang Guifang is well-known by the people, but he has high martial arts skills and is loyal to the Yin Dynasty. In the early stage, he defeated Jiang Ziyu so badly that it was "not good enough".

    General Zhang Guifang was surrounded and killed by 19 generals of Xiqi, including Bo Da, Bo Shi, Zhong Tu, Zhong Hu, Shu Ye, Shu Xia, Ji Suo, Ji An, Mao Gong Sui, Zhou Gong Dan, Shao Zhaogongshì (Zhao Gongshì), Lu Gongwang (Lu Gongfang), Nangong Shu (Nangeng Shu), Xin Ji (Xin Jia), Xin Mian (Xin Mian), Taie Dingta (Taie Dingtai), Hong Yao (Hong Yao), Huang Ming)...... He was finally surrounded and killed by these generals. Additionally, the team attacking him also joined in the assault. Nézha joined the battle from morning till noon. Finally realizing that he had no chance to break out alive, he committed suicide by self-mutilation......

    This person is not only a fierce general and a famous general, but also has a skill in forbidden arts and supernatural abilities.

    Fe Zhong knows Zhang Guifang and knows his abilities.

    He immediately threw King Zhou's Dragon and Phoenix Sword to General Zhang Guifang and pointed to the Dragon King of the Jing River in the clouds, saying: "The emperor has decreed that this beast must be slain!"

    General Zhang Guifang didn't ask why; he half-kneeled and clasped his hands together, saying, "I obey the imperial decree!"

    Although he is not a disciple of Jieji, he has also studied Daoism properly and can see through the dragon body of the Dragon King of the Jing River, just don't know the specific name.

    "May I ask the scholar, what is the surname and given name of this scoundrel?"

    Fe Zhong, who is usually very good at remembering gifts, thought for a moment and said, "I think his name is Jing He?"

    General Zhang Guifang also spoke quite well: "Jing He? This must be a false name, this villain deceives the emperor and deceives the scholar, and his crime is beyond forgiveness!"

    He had guessed the name of the Dragon King of the Jing River and immediately stood on the ground, using his secret technique "hail name and fall horse", shouting to the Dragon King of the Jing River who was riding clouds in flight: "Dragon King of the Jing River, why wait for another time to descend from the cloud?"

    With only one foot, it was already inconvenient for the Dragon King of the Jing River to ride on clouds. He felt dizzy and disoriented, and the magical power for riding on clouds in his body suddenly stopped. He had no time to react before he fell like an oak tree falling headfirst.

    Beside General Zhang Guifang, the vanguard officer Feng Lin, whose face was as blue as indigo and whose hair resembled red sandalwood, opened his mouth and spat out a fiery red orb that hit the Dragon King of the Jing River directly in the face.

    General Zhang Guifang roared with anger and charged forward, raising his sword to strike.

    Both General Zhang Guifang and Feng Lin underestimated the tenacity of the dragon species. Feng Lin's red bead was fatal to ordinary people, but it only caused slight injuries to the dragon king.

    The Dragon King of the Jing River was hit in the face by a single pearl, causing him to see stars, but he did not lose his mobility.

    Facing General Zhang Guifang's fast-as-lightning sword, he leaped up, his left foot being completely empty, and managed to avoid it. However, his right foot failed to dodge, and under the enhancement of human qi, the Dragon and Phoenix Sword was extremely sharp, as if the dragon scales did not exist. As a result, another of his feet was chopped off and he spat out a mouthful of dragon blood at Zhang Guifang.

    Taking advantage of this brief delay, the Dragon King managed to endure the excruciating pain and charge recklessly ahead.

    Before the Dragon King could attempt to ride on clouds again, General Zhang Guifang shouted one more time.

    The Dragon King of the Jing River had never seen this kind of forbidden technique before, and he couldn't help but feel disgusted.

    Unable to ride on clouds, he had to rely on his legs to run. With his feet gone, only two stubby calves remained, and after running a hundred and several steps, the entire road surface was stained red with blood.
