135: Chapter 135 Shen Yi Taking Advantage of the Situation!

The world of immortality cultivation is a massive society of human favors that has been running for ten thousand years.

Whether it is those as high as the Purple Mansion or even the Golden Core, or as low as Qi Refining and Qi Induction.

All need to abide by the principles of this world.

The principle is... the rules of the Immortal Dynasty are greater than everything else.

All Families operate within a layer of underlying, implicit rules.

Even if there are slight transgressions in private, on the surface, they will still maintain the operation of this set of rules.

This is the reason why the Jing Kingdom can still struggle to hold on...

But in Shen Yi's view, it is nothing more than those bastards at the top feeling that the power they have accumulated is not enough, not enough to dominate the world.

So they are still biding their time...

The degree of the Families' dependence on the Immortal Dynasty is much higher than imagined.

And the contraction of the Chu Family's power, in Shen Li's view, is almost inevitable.

If he hasn't miscalculated, the Chu Family, this First-Rank Family, relying on Commander Chu Xiong's position, holds at least no less than two thousand Dao Soldiers or reserve Dao Soldiers in their hands.

A Thousand-Household Commander is a minor Sixth-Rank official.

Even in Taiping County, there are only three Thousand-Household Commanders.

The troops directly under their command number five thousand...

These five thousand people do not need to be supported by themselves; they only need to be reported to the imperial court.

And the reason why the Families can blatantly raise private soldiers is due to a unique condition.

Military generals have the right to recruit and prepare soldiers, which can reduce the cost of many losses, weaponry, and good medicine.

Such authority is naturally for the purpose of quickly raising a batch of warhorses and filling the vacancies of Dao Soldiers during a great war.

But this authority has been carried forward by the Families.

It also makes the Immortal Dynasty's scalp tingle.

However, even the Immortal Dynasty dare not easily change this task that touches the interests of the Families; they can only gradually reduce it.

Directly cutting off the recruitment rights below the Seventh-Rank.

And for those above the minor Sixth-Rank... cutting off one-third.

The quota is halved.

There are only two thousand Dao Soldiers in reserve.

Therefore... the death of Commander Chu Xiong is not as simple as the death of a Second-Rank Dao Soldier or a minor Sixth-Rank official of the Immortal Dynasty.

His death... directly caused a top-tier Family that was about to cross from First-Rank to Second-Rank to regress to a mediocre First-Rank, or even unranked.

Because from Chu Sheng's few words, it can be easily analyzed...

The Chu Family no longer has a military officer who can carry the banner.

They are selling Commander Chu Xiong's legacy.

For... Commander Chu Xiong's remains.

A corpse sacrificed by an evil sect, not directly burned to death, not directly suppressed by immortal means.

And they even want to fight to retrieve the corpse's Divine Soul... this action is also very abnormal.

It is estimated that this Chu Family wants to use Commander Chu Xiong's Divine Soul to make a fuss about something.

But... these have nothing to do with Shen Yi.

The only things related to him are those one thousand young, strong soldiers.

And that Chariot Power Battle Technique!

Shen Yi narrowed his eyes and asked softly.

"Let's talk about that Chariot Power Battle Technique first..."

Seeing this, Chu Sheng felt some sighs in his heart.

The last time he came, this Shen Yi had to be respectful to him when entering and leaving the Military Horse Division.

But today, this Shen Yi can command him so nonchalantly.

The change in status, the fickleness of the world, although he had long expected it in his heart.

But it is still inevitable to feel some desolation.

It's just that... he no longer has the qualifications to fall out.

One must know that Shen Yi's battle record has already spread throughout the yamen of Pingyang Prefecture.

And written documents have been issued to Taiping County...

The Four Seas Chamber of Commerce also has files on it.

All of them record a major event.

This matter, he, a minor Ninth-Rank official, cannot even clearly read!

He only knows that the Registrar of Taiping County had a somewhat heavy expression... instructing them to be peaceful and respectful towards this person, Shen Yi!

This Registrar never talks nonsense.

And being able to say this, it is obvious that he knows some inside information...

And according to the news Chu Sheng received... Wanren Cliff has been marked with Shen Yi's signature.

What kind of place is that?

A pure Sword Cultivator, the Immortal Cave of the Purple Mansion Sword Cultivator Wei Bushe.

It was taken down by Shen Yi...

That was a competition for land deeds that many Second-Rank Families, and even Third-Rank Families, would participate in.

It was actually taken by a scholar who didn't even have a Family or Immortal Sect supporting him behind his back.

This in itself is full of anomalies.

Therefore, on the way to the funeral, he resolutely grabbed this life-saving straw!

In this world, everyone's sensory nerves and judgment of the situation are very sharp.

He, as a child of a Family, is naturally no exception.

He saw him say with some respect in his eyes.

"The Chariot Power Battle Technique... is known as the Power of the Jin-Chariot."

"It is a power battle technique that my Family's ancestors requested from the Ministry of War."

"This technique can enhance the commander's strength, with an upper limit of ten times the usual."

"It is generally used on assault Dao Soldiers."

"This kind of battle technique also has a very special characteristic."

"That is blunt damage."

"Striking the enemy, the Evil Qi may cause the opponent to be stunned."

"It is the best method for a charge."

"Among low-level battle techniques... it is considered a pretty good one."

Shen Yi nodded, not yet speaking.

Wang Meng, this guy, stretched out his hand.

Like a big dog asking his mother for bones... shaking Shen Yi's shoulder.

"Lord!"

"I want it~~~"

"I want it~~~"

Wang Meng felt that this kind of battle technique was a perfect match for him!

A perfect match, you know!

Although One Against a Thousand increased his combat power, and Hundred Battles Without Fear increased his resistance to blows and slowly increased his combat power.

But as a real man.

What he likes most.

Is not this kind of convoluted, stacking-layer battle technique.

But the purest violence.

Wang Meng is destined to implement a philosophy.

That is... fighting, it feels great!

But this kind of behavior.

Is indeed a bit disgusting!

Shen Yi felt a chill immediately.

Yan Shu and Zhou Xian immediately sent looks of contempt, and stepped aside a few steps...

Shen Yi also hurriedly patted away Wang Meng's big hand, and said angrily.

"Shut up!"

With Wang Meng interrupting like this.

How can he bargain?

Shen Yi breathed out a breath of turbid air and asked calmly.

"Presumably, this battle technique is the final remuneration."

But he saw Chu Sheng nod... his heart settled down a lot.

If there is a request and a response, this transaction can be considered to have a start.

Shen Yi continued to speak and asked.

"Can that one thousand young, strong soldiers be traded in advance?"

Chu Sheng showed a little hesitation.

"According to reason... it's difficult."

Seeing this, Shen Yi yawned.

"Then there is nothing to talk about."

After speaking... he was about to get up and leave.

Chu Sheng hurriedly tugged at Shen Yi's cuff and said pleadingly.

"Lord Shen, let's talk."

Seeing this, Shen Yi sighed.

"Brother Chu, given our relationship, I will definitely help if I can."

"I know you may have heard some rumors..."

"But I have to lay out an account for you."

"On the trip to Wanren Cliff, my Dao Soldiers were reduced by half."

"Now that the quota for young, strong men is being strictly controlled everywhere, there is no source for Dao Soldiers."

"I am in urgent need of replenishment of troops."

"I am interested in the Great Black Heaven Mother Buddha Sect, but those who can deal with Commander Chu Xiong are definitely not easy to deal with."

"With no spear in hand... I am also panicking!"

Seeing that Shen Yi was still going to leave, Chu Sheng gritted his teeth and said.

"Lord Shen... I can give them to you in advance!"
