Chapter 245 - 245: 159: The Imperial Court Angel_3

Among the young generation in the Chu family, he was not even the most outstanding. There were others who surpassed him.

‘The Da Yue dynasty has been established for over three hundred years and possesses solid strength. Especially those noble families holding power in the court, they should not be underestimated.

It is said that the Chu family’s patriarch in Wujiang is also a top-level master in Jianghu. Moreover, the Chu family has martial arts techniques that directly point to the Inborn Realm. However, for some reason, none of their recent generations have managed to reach the Inborn Realm.

Beyond the Chu family, the Shuyang Bai Family where Wuan Marquis Bai

Mengyang belong, the deceased Dongting City Chief Li Gui from the Wuyang Marquis, and the Li family of Liuhe, as well as several other Inborn Grandmasters are all part of these aristocratic families.

There is a saying about thirteen top aristocratic families in Linhai County, which refers to the six surnames and seven clans.

If these families are all like Bai Family and Li Family, the foundation of the court would be very strong indeed.’

After conversing with Chu Wei and hearing some of the court and family secrets he mentioned with an intent to intimidate, Lu Yuan had a more intuitive understanding of the strength of the court.

The Da Yue court might have declined. After all, in theory, each of the thirteen families should have the strength to produce Inborn Grandmasters.

However, in reality, there were only five Inborn Grandmasters in the court, including the deceased Wuyang Marquis Li Gui. Only one- third of the thirteen families managed to cultivate Inborn Grandmasters.

From this perspective, Da Yue did decline indeed.

But to say they were utterly incapable would be an exaggeration.

After all, there were still four Inborn Grandmasters in Da Yue, and in the six surnames and seven clans, even though most of them didn’t have Inborn Grandmasters, there were about twenty top-level masters.

If you add in the mid-level forces and those family members with second and third -class strength, their power would become even more terrifying.

With just these forces alone, the Da Yue dynasty might be considered in decline, but it is an exaggeration to say they are on the verge of collapse.

At the very least, with the strength of the court, they can maintain their control over Linhai, Yuzhang, Jianan, and Guangling provinces in the Jiangdong territory without any problems.’

At this point, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but feel ashamed of his previous misjudgments about the court.

At this moment, it seemed that Chu Wei wanted to use one effort to maximize the court’s deterrence. He proactively brought up another topic: “General, did you know that the court has already mobilized one hundred thousand soldiers from the capital to prepare for an expedition to Dongting and suppress the

rebels of the Five Poison Sect to regain Baling City?”

Upon hearing this news, Lu Yuan was slightly surprised and then delighted. After procrastinating for more than two months, the court finally decided to take action.

He was about to believe that the court had truly decided to abandon the Army of Pacifying Shu and Dongting County. It turned out that they were quietly preparing something big.

Good, very good indeed.

With the support of these troops, the Five Poison Sect would focus on the court’s main force rather than on him.

The dark clouds above his head vanished in an instant.

Lu Yuan almost laughed aloud, but forced himself to suppress the urge. He hurriedly asked: “May I know, Mr. Chu, when did this happen? When will the army arrive, and who is the commander?”

Chu Wei glanced at Lu Yuan and still maintained his gentle and elegant demeanor, smiling: “The army was already prepared before I set off and has already started marching.

I traveled on a fast boat, rushing day and night to arrive here ahead of time.

By my estimation, the army should have already reached Yuzhang Prefecture, and it won’t be long before they arrive in Dongting County. By then, the general will also hear the news.

As for who the commander is.”

Chu Wei changed his tone, and his expression carried a hint of reverence: “The commander of this Yi army is none other than the General of Conquering the West, Dongting County Prefect, and Wucheng Marquis, Shangguan Ming. This time, Lord Shangguan has been entrusted by His Majesty to lead the ten thousand elite troops to pacify Dongting County.

The vice commander of the army is the National Guardian Dharma Master of the court, Dongting Prefect and the White Phoenix Temple’s Jihui Monk.

With these two leaders taking charge, all the rebels of the Five Poison Sect will undoubtedly be eliminated.”

As Chu Wei shared this news, a hint of pride appeared on his face, clearly showing his confidence in this line-up.

After listening, Lu Yuan could not help but be secretly alarmed.

The National Guardian Dharma Master, the widely-discussed Jihui Monk of the White Phoenix Temple who was invited to the capital to preach last year, has he now officially joined the court?

Does his addition signify that the remaining four Jianghu forces with Inborn Grandmasters in Da Yue will gradually integrate with the court, becoming a part of it?

If this is indeed the case.

With the help of these Jianghu Grandmasters, the court would suddenly gain an additional five Inborn Grandmasters, bringing the total to ten. The shortage of Inborn Grandmasters would be instantly resolved.

Moreover,

Who is this Wucheng Marquis Shangguan Ming, appointed the commanding officer?

In the court’s hierarchy, only those with the “wu” (martial) character added to their title could be Inborn Grandmasters.

However, Lu Yuan didn’t recall any Wucheng Marquis nor anyone named Shangguan Ming from the known Inborn Grandmasters of the court.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan asked: “Mr. Chu, I have never heard of Wucheng

Marquis before. Where does Lord Shangguan come from?”

Chu Wei heard the question, took a sip of wine, and smiled faintly: “Wucheng Marquis is from the Shangguan family of Jintan. He had been cultivating his martial arts in seclusion in the family and didn’t make a name for himself in the official and Jianghu circles.

However, at the beginning of the year, Lord Shangguan’s cultivation advanced greatly, breaking through the Heavenly and Earthly Mysterious Barrier and entering the Innate Realm.

Though he had made the breakthrough, Lord Shangguan was busy consolidating his cultivation in seclusion, so he was unknown to outsiders.

During this crisis, Wuyang Marquis was unfortunately assassinated by the rebels.

So, in order to repay the country’s grace, Lord Shangguan came out to serve as a general, assumed the title of Wucheng Marquis, and took up the command of this expedition.”

In a simple explanation, Chu Wei revealed another piece of surprising news and installed a bit of self-satisfaction.

Lu Yuan, once again, was shocked..
