Chen Mu was not concerned about how much shock it would cause in Yu County by concurrently serving as the director of both the Supervision Department and the Demon Slaying Department. After all, without a strong background, he should focus on developing quietly, but with With a backer and background like Yan Jingqing and even Qixuan Sect, it is not a bad thing to show off your sword a little bit, and it can even avoid some unnecessary troubles.
But when all the forces in Yu County turned their attention to Chen Mu, the new Supervisor Division Chief, Chen Mu was not at his residence, but quietly came to the ancient courtyard behind the Yu family and stepped into the ordinary place. This ancient garden is strictly prohibited for anyone to enter without permission.
In the garden.
The pond is clear, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and it is a scene full of vitality.
Chen Mu walked along the path along the flower bed until he came to the pond. He saw the old man with simple clothes and a fisherman’s hat, with fair hair and a boyish face, fishing cross-legged and looking intently at the water.
Although this was the first time we met, I had sensed the energy of the great-grandfather of the Yu family before on the way to the county government, but now he seemed to have completely restrained himself, and he was no different from an ordinary old man in his perception.
“Grandpa.”
Chen Mu bowed respectfully and addressed Xu Hongyu as he called her.
The old man in front of him, regardless of his age, level of strength, or the trouble he had caused for the He family before, was undoubtedly worthy of him as a respectful junior.
Yu Jiujiang was not like Yan Jingqing. When he heard Chen Mu’s words, he swung the fishing rod and put it away. Then he looked at Chen Mu and said with a smile:
“Have you finished talking?”
“Well, the Inspector already knows about He Wuyou’s actions and will give the He family a beating in the future. The head of the Yu family believes that the He family will shrink some of its power after this beating, but it is not appropriate for the Yu family to take action against the He family at this time.”
Chen Mu nodded towards Yu Jiujiang and responded.
He came to see Yu Jiujiang after the high-level meeting of the Yu family. He had never attended a high-level meeting of the Yu family before. Firstly, he and Xu Hongyu were only engaged but not married. Secondly, he was not a descendant of the Yu family. The strength and status shown before were not enough, but this time it was different. Even in the high-level meetings of the Yu family, his opinions dominated.
Yu Jiujiang said calmly: “Although Yan Jingqing cannot be called upright, he is indeed a person whose eyes are hard to melt with sand. Since he already knows that the He family is dishonest and knows how to beat them, then he will add insult to injury at this time. When it comes to Yan Jingqing, It doesn’t look good in my eyes. Now my Yu family doesn’t need to be so anxious. There is nothing wrong with Zuyi’s decision.”
“Now that you have been appreciated and served as the supervisor of the Supervisory Division and the Demon Slayer Division, in this Yu City, in addition to the four major sects that you still need to be wary of, you don’t need to pay too much attention to the other sects.”
Speaking of which.
Yu Jiujiang couldn’t help but sigh when he looked at Chen Mu.
In fact, Chen Mu’s ability to serve as the director of both the Supervision Department and the Demon Slayer Department was something that even he had not expected. In his opinion, with Chen Mu’s talent and qualifications, he would definitely be in Yan Jingqing’s field of vision, but being transferred to the deputy director of the Supervision Department would be just about the same. .
But now, not only is he directly appointed as the Dusi, but in order to allow Chen Mu to better enjoy the resources of the Qixuan Sect, Chen Mu is also specially appointed as the Dusi of the Demon Slayer Division. The words “appreciation and value” are almost written on the letter.
As a former deacon of Qixuan Sect, Yu Jiujiang was much older than Yan Jingqing. Yan Jingqing only came to prominence after abdicating the throne, but he also knew something about Yan Jingqing and knew that there were actually very few people who could be appreciated by him.
Chen Mu listened quietly, then shook his head and said: “Being the supervisor of the Supervision Department is a bit eye-catching, and you have to deal with the four major sects, which will inevitably lead to some troubles. It can be regarded as pros and cons. In fact, if you can It would be better if I have a stable environment where I can practice more carefully.”
Yu Jiujiang smiled and said: “No wonder Yan Jingqing thinks highly of you. You are his confidant as the director of the Supervision Department. You have such authority and status that ordinary people cannot envy, but you can also analyze the pros and cons. But in my opinion, it is the pros and cons.” It far outweighs the disadvantages. At least for the time being, you don’t have to worry about the He family jumping over the wall again. You also have a huge guarantee when walking in Yu County. In addition, martial arts practice is not best done behind closed doors. To practice practice, you must practice both. Only when there is action and the harmony of movement and stillness is the right path.”
“That’s what Grandpa said.”
Chen Mu shook his head in his heart, but he could only respond in this way. After all, he couldn’t say that he had a system panel.
Yu Jiujiang continued: “What’s more, the Supervisory Department has been newly established. The four major sects in Yu County are still in compliance with the rules now, and they may not be too busy with their affairs. The Demon Slaying Department is even more relaxed during the non-monster period. It will have an impact on you. Or not too big.”
This is indeed true.
At least for now, the Supervision Department’s actions in Yu County are basically focused on collecting intelligence and coordinating the overall situation. They have basically not carried out any specific operations, and have never had any conflicts with the four major sects, let alone the Demon Slayer Department. carry.
After Chen Mu thought for a while, he suddenly asked the question he was most concerned about at the moment: “Grandpa, I want to know… in the second step of the artistic conception, who is stronger and who is weaker compared to the warriors in the Five Zang Realm?”
Once he understands his current level of strength, he will be able to act more appropriately in the future.
Chen Mu’s question made Yu Jiujiang ponder for a moment.
“The second step of artistic conception… In fact, there are rumors that only warriors in the five internal organs realm can exert the true power of artistic conception. This sentence is not completely accurate. It should be said that the first step of artistic conception is between the five internal organs realm and the bone forging realm. In the hands, the difference in power is huge, but in the second step, there is not much difference, but the specific strength depends on the person. “
Speaking of which.
“Take me as an example. Although I am in my twilight years, I finally realized the second step of the Kanshui artistic conception. If I deal with a person who has not stepped into the five internal organs realm and only masters a single artistic conception such as Kanshui and Lihuo, the second step A warrior with a single step can be killed with ten moves!”
“If it is a much stronger artistic conception such as Blood Fiend, Heart Sword, etc., it will be much more difficult, but it can still be won within a hundred moves.”
Hearing Yu Jiujiang’s words.
Chen Mu suddenly felt awe-inspiring.
The existence of the five internal organs realm, and then mastering the second step of the artistic conception, is indeed not as simple as one plus one. Not only is the inner breath circulating with the heaven and earth, endless, but the power of the moves is also extraordinary.
but.
Yu Jiujiang then changed his words and said: “However, not all warriors in the Five Zang Realm can understand the second step of the artistic conception. In fact, there are very few. He Wuyou has never mastered the second step of the artistic conception. Therefore, Even though I am already in my twilight years, he still doesn’t dare to fight me even though he knows that fighting with me will weaken my energy and make me decline faster.”
“I also retired from my position as the deacon of Qixuan Sect and returned to sit beside this pond for more than ten years before I finally took that step.”
There was a hint of sigh in Yu Jiujiang’s words.
In fact, if he had not realized the second step of Kanshui’s artistic conception, he might not be able to maintain his realm strength now. Although it is very easy for a warrior to live over a hundred years after entering the five internal organs realm, lifespan and strength are not the same thing.
Being able to maintain his strength to the age of ninety-two and still maintain his strength without declining is that on the one hand, his Kanshui artistic conception has entered the second step, and on the other hand, he happens to have mastered the Kanshui artistic conception, which is the most capable among the eight phases. One of the artistic conceptions of recuperating and recuperating.
If it is Lihuo, Zhenlei, etc., even though the killing power is stronger, it is extremely difficult to maintain the strength until the age of ninety.
“Then, what is the approximate level of someone like He Wuyou who has never understood the second step of artistic conception?”
After Chen Mu thought briefly, he continued to ask.
According to what he knows so far, the second step of artistic conception is indeed difficult. Most people are like Yu Jiujiang. They can only realize it when they are almost in their twilight years, but they don’t have much power to act. However, they can realize it in their prime. What comes out is often not even one out of ten.
Even among the true disciples of the four major sects, only the best among them can realize the second step of the artistic conception at a young age. Like Gu Hong, the true disciple of Heavenly Sword he once encountered, who ranked last among the true disciples of Heavenly Sword. , and never took the second step.
“If he fights me, I can defeat him within a hundred moves.”
Yu Jiujiang said calmly.
After saying these words, Chen Mu finally had a rough idea of the distribution of strength in the five internal organs realm.
The second step of mastering any of the eight phases of the universe, such as wind, thunder, fire, etc., is almost the strength to cross the “threshold of the five internal organs realm”. It is basically impossible to win against the weakest five internal organs realm, and at most it can withstand for a while.
Then there are people like He Wuyou, who have entered the Five Zang Realm but have not mastered the second step of the artistic conception. They are “average in the Five Zang Realm” and are probably slightly stronger than him now.
Further up is Yu Jiujiang, who has mastered the second step of the five internal organs realm, and is also a relatively strong existence among the five internal organs realms. However, because he has reached his twilight years, he can only barely maintain his strength, which is much lower than when he was in his prime. Just fight against a person like He Wuyou, against a true genius like Shang Gu Hong, there is a high probability that he will not be able to win.
And the only ones who stand at the top of the five internal organs realm are the leaders of the four true traditions, such as Zuo Qianqiu.
“In other words, if I master the second-step artistic conception, I will basically not be afraid of the ordinary five-organ realm like He Wuyou. However, I actually have certain advantages in body tempering, but I can’t accurately classify them. “
Chen Mu thought in his heart.
The horizontal training of bone forging, Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound, is no joke. Even if you have not stepped into the Five Zang Realm to complete the qualitative change of Qi and blood returning to its origin, your own body is still very powerful. According to the records in the Daxuan Martial Arts Code, if you practice bone forging In the extreme ‘Jade Bone’ realm, even the Yuangang Zhenjin in the five internal organs realm can also be defeated. This is another level of strength.
All in all, with a general positioning of his own strength, he will know how to measure his subsequent actions. The most important thing now is to upgrade the Lihuo artistic conception to the second step as soon as possible and train the Bone Forging Stage to the limit. .
Until then.
There are very few people who can threaten him anymore.
