Secret Records of the Leader of the Beichen Sword Sect-Chapter 239 - 222 Ranger_2

Not to mention the civil and military officials, even the Empress Dowager and the Great General wouldn’t agree, right? What a suicidal move! Truly sending troops to the South, inviting the Stone Dragon to charge in?

Thus, the current situation across the land grows increasingly chaotic, the court’s situation also becomes more turbulent. The Great General, finally having seized control of court affairs, becomes ever more cautious, not daring to leave the capital on his own accord. Naturally, the agenda painstakingly reached by the Three Constellations now has to be scrapped and started anew.

Hence, the debate over whether to attack the South first and then the North, or the North first and then the South, or if the Old Immortal Palace is invincible and can wage war on two fronts without issue, is now at fever pitch in the Taiwei Constellation.

In such a scenario, what does it matter if three dogs died and a fire burned dozens of old eunuchs to death?

In the end, it was the Inspector General Si Li who suffered great misfortune. After all, it was his duty to maintain order within the Imperial City, yet he failed in this task. And to make matters worse, he was seated solitary, unable to escape from being the target of everyone’s frustration. The Three Ministers, Nine Ministers, and the Great General took turns berating him, raining down a torrent of abuse on him, until he was finally fired, left with nothing but a dog’s blood mishap...

Tsk, after all that effort, they only managed to oust one Inspector General Si Li. The disruption wasn’t potent enough...

It seems playing house isn’t much fun, more effort needs to be put in, some big events need to be stirred up...

"Where is the envoy sent by Marquis Zhongshan the rebel staying?"

Tie Dan queried, instantly silencing everyone, all casting glances at him, clearly recognizing who was an unfamiliar outsider.

Tie Dan chuckled and said,

"I’m just a country bumpkin who wants to see what kind of three-headed, six-armed, green-faced, fanged Ghost God, these Northern rebels are, that they can sweep the world and terrify all court officials so much that no one dares to stand against them."

"Humph! What three heads and six arms! What Ghost God! It’s just a mere Stone Dragon! A coarse fool, nothing more! Brother, do not talk up others and dampen your own spirit!"

Immediately, a young ranger in splendid clothes with a sword, disheveled hair, and drunk eyes, slammed the table and rose, swaggered over to Tie Dan, observed that Tie Dan also carried a sword, nodded at him, and sat down heavily,

"That Stone Dragon was once a hostage in the capital, I’ve seen him! Just a paper tiger! A sword in a man’s hand is enough to take his head!"

Tie Dan smiled, grabbed a wine bowl, raised the wine jar, and poured him a bowl,

"I would like this elder brother to share his stories to broaden my horizons!"

The ranger was not polite, inhaled deeply of the wine, drank it all in one gulp, and slapped his chest with a red face, saying,

"Good! Let me tell you! Humph! Stone Dragon! What nonsense! He even dares call himself Heavenly King! Spit!

He used to kneel like a lackey in front of my house! Do you know how my uncle evaluated him?

Frightened! Subdued! Calm! Respectful!

Oh, but indeed, if he hadn’t put on such an act back then, how could he have been released? And the court nobles were blind, blind indeed!"

Oh, I thought this drunkard was just talking big, but didn’t expect he knew about Marquis Zhongshan’s black history as a hostage in the Three Constellations. It seems the Three Constellations really are a place hiding hidden talents...

"I didn’t expect this elder brother to actually be acquainted with Stone Dragon? But that rebel has already transformed into a divinity and become a general, he must be quite old now? May I ask how old is elder brother this year?"

So, Tie Dan also put on a doubtful face to provoke him.

This tactic indeed worked, the drunkard, seeing everyone’s skepticism, stood up suddenly, in anger,

"Just say you’re ignorant! You mere mortals, with eyes that don’t recognize a True Immortal!

Don’t look at me like this, I too have the Refining Qi and Transforming God Immortal Body! I’m a person of the Qi Refining path!"

Everyone laughed, but Tie Dan nodded; this guy was indeed a Mixed Cultivator, although not practicing the orthodox cultivation techniques of the Three Great Sects, he did possess some curious Qi Sensation, and who knew what level of combat power. But the world is vast and there are endless wonders, perhaps these rangers traveling the Jianghu have some unique secret techniques for longevity.

The drunkard pounded his chest loudly,

"What I have is true mastery of cultivation. As for him, he’s nothing but someone who received an Imperial Golden Pill!"

Instantly, someone caught the loophole and argued,

"Hey, a Divination Transformation Pill is a Divination Transformation Pill, what Golden Pill, cut it out!"

The drunkard leaped,

"Mere mortals! Blind and ignorant! That Divination Transformation Pill, what a joke! All those Divine Gang, Divine Infant, and Divine Transformation Pills, they’re all semi-finished products! They are nothing but elixir residue from refining the Daluo Eight-Nine Body Sculpting Golden Pill!"

The crowd laughed even more scornfully, dismissing it as just a drunken rant.

However, upon hearing ’Daluo Eight-Nine Body Sculpting Golden Pill,’ Tie Dan’s eyes immediately lit up.

This formula was also mentioned in the Old Xuan Sect Daoist Sutra! Although briefly mentioned, due to its long name, Tie Dan remembered it, and it seemed to be the top-secret formula of the Immortal Palace!

This guy has some real knowledge!

Quickly poured him another bowl.

The drunkard, seeing Tie Dan’s sincerity, drank it all with satisfaction and said,

"You mere mortals don’t know, during the time of the Immortal Venerable, demons were exterminated, and nine cauldrons were cast, said to stabilize the Nine Provinces and dominate the nine heavens!

The bodies of the demons slain were thrown into the cauldrons to be cooked and refined; each cauldron could refine nine Daluo Eight-Nine Body Sculpting Golden Pills!

With these eighty-one pills, granted to meritorious officers and core ministers, it would forever ensure the Qiankun of our Immortal Palace remains unshakable! For generations to come!"

Scanning the room, seeing everyone was stunned, with faces of ’what the heck!’ expression, this guy proudly sat down, finished the wine in his bowl to soothe his throat, then continued,

"The one Stone Dragon received, is the genuine Daluo Golden Pill, refined once in a millennium, only nine per batch!

Just one grain of pill! Can increase one’s lifespan by 1,200 years! Instantly reshape the flesh upon consumption! Acquire Divine Skill and Domineering Body! Tian Gang protections! Avoid seventy-two calamities! Free from thirty-six hazards! Command the Three Realms! Invincible in the world!"

This time the crowd didn’t look at him, but turned their eyes to the eunuch who had suddenly appeared at the doorway.
