Chapter 296: The Kong family is destroyed, Jinghuan’s decree!
After becoming possessed by the devil, Kong Yanjin’s strength skyrocketed.

Almost reached the late fourth realm of Hongru!

It’s a pity that the enemy Jia Cong is facing now has already reached the fifth level.

Even the peak of the fourth realm is nothing.

Jia Cong doesn’t even have to take action himself.

Black and white are impermanent!

Two generals in shackles!

There are nine ghost generals, Xuanyin, Xuansha, Xuanyou, Xuanming and Xuanying, who are responsible for exorcising demons, suppressing barbarians, pacifying the barbarians and eliminating bandits!
A group of fourth-level ghosts and gods attacked together.

In just a few minutes, Kong Yanjin, another great scholar of the Kong family, and the remaining dozen or so young descendants of the Kong family were captured alive by General Shackles using Shinto magic weapons.

“Your Highness!”

“Kong Yanjin and all the direct descendants of the Kong family have been captured alive!”

“How should I deal with this? Please give me your instructions, Young Sect Master!”

The two generals in shackles brought Kong Yanjin to Jia Cong.

“The Kong family openly rebelled, which is an unforgivable crime.”

“Order the prefect of Yanzhou to send people to escort these people to Shenjing City for a public trial by the three courts!”

“You two will be escorted along with the Black and White Impermanence!”

Jia Cong looked at Kong Yanjin, who was now like a madman, almost losing his mind and turning into a wild beast who only knew how to kill.

After thinking for a moment, he spoke.

“My Lord, you are so smart!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Ge Yan beside him immediately bowed and smiled.

“Excuse me, these are just some petty tricks that are not worthy of being shown on the stage.”

“I wonder if that real person…”

Jia Cong nodded modestly and asked a question.

“Hahaha, I knew I couldn’t hide it from the Marquis!”

“Old Taoist Ge Qing is polite!”

As soon as he finished speaking, another old man in Taoist robes appeared in the void.

He has white hair, a youthful face and rosy skin, just like a baby.

With every move he made, a strange vision like a landscape painting seemed to surge behind him.

He is full of inspiration and his strength is one level higher than Ge Yan.

It is the sign of the late fifth realm, the Soul Accumulation Realm.

It is also the strongest fighting force that can be used at will under the restrictions of heaven and earth today.

What happened today was quite lucky.

Jia Cong originally thought that no matter how strong the Kong family was, after four semi-saints were killed.

There are only four or five semi-saints in the Confucius Mansion in Qufu, like the Yangshen Patriarch of Wuyi Mountain, who has used secret methods to fake his death and has only one chance to escape.

In fact, at the beginning it was just as Jia Cong had expected.

Only four semi-saints and twelve great scholars of the Kong family were awakened from their suspended death state.

Including Kong Bolin who escaped back, there were only five.

Until by chance, his Dharma body “Marquis of Sincerity and Bright Mind” was cut out.

As they are both in the late fifth realm, even though the Confucian and Taoist Semi-Saint’s combat power is slightly inferior to that of the Xuanmen Yang God, their realm is the same.

Naturally, it was easy to discover Ge Qing, who had been hiding in the dark and had never appeared!

If the Kong family only had the masters that Jia Cong had previously estimated.

Naturally, the Gexian Sect did not need to send a late Yangshen ancestor who needed to stay in the sect all the time and would not go out easily.

Now that it’s here!

That means the Kong family has at least one late semi-saint!

I just don’t know why he was not in Qufu, so I didn’t take any action.

That’s why Jia Cong had this idea.

After Kong Yanjin was captured alive, he was not ordered to be beheaded directly. Instead, he deliberately and unnecessarily ordered the Yanzhou prefect to escort him to the capital with great fanfare.

Firstly, the possession of Duke Yansheng by a demon was enough to make the Kong family’s recently declining prestige plummet to the bottom.

Secondly, it goes without saying that the prefect of Yanzhou must have a close relationship with the Kong family.

Give him a chance to inform the Kong family members who are living outside, and maybe he can contact the late semi-saint of the Kong family.

At that time, Jia Cong will bring people to follow secretly.

This is an open conspiracy, and the person will be escorted openly and tried by the three judicial departments.

It is a great humiliation for ordinary top secular dignitaries, let alone the Kong family, a top-notch force at the head of Confucianism and Taoism.

Even if the other party knows it is a trap.

For the sake of the Kong family’s reputation for countless years, they must also rescue Kong Yanjin.

Otherwise, the Kong family will be eliminated from the list of top-notch forces in the future.

……

“I came here uninvited, I hope Marquis Jing’an will forgive me!”

The middle fifth realm and the late fifth realm seem to be only a small realm apart.

In fact, there is a huge gap in strength.

It would take at least three or four mid-fifth-stage masters to contend against one late-fifth-stage master!

But at this moment, Ge Qing treated Jia Cong as an equal.

“You are too kind!”

“Jia Cong cannot thank you enough for coming all the way to help me!”

Although Jia Cong’s tone remained calm, anyone could sense a hint of recognition in it.

What is an ally!

When Kong Yanjin led his men to Beijing for the first time, Longhu Mountain also extended an olive branch to Jia Cong.

Propose an alliance.

However, he would first set the conditions in advance before sending experts to help.

On the other hand, the Gexian Sect directly sent its masters to Beijing to hide in the dark.

The same is true this time!
If it weren’t for Jia Cong’s chance and coincidence to use Confucian and Taoist rules to kill out the incarnation of Wenhou.

I’m afraid that until this matter is over, it may not be discovered that Ge Qing has been protecting us in secret.

Talk less and do more, advance and retreat together!

This is a true ally.

“I know that Master is righteous, and I came here to help you on purpose.”

“It’s just that I troubled you to make this trip, and Jia Cong feels guilty about it.”

“I will only take one item from the Kong family’s harvest today, and the rest will all belong to the Gexian Sect!”

As he spoke, Jia Cong stretched out his hand.

From the Confucius Temple below, a stream of light flew out and fell into his hand, revealing the appearance of a broken bamboo slip.

It is the last missing part of the semi-saintly treasure, the Zhougong Bamboo Slips, in Jia Cong’s hands.

Duke Zhou was born before the Spring and Autumn Period. At that time, even the Hundred Schools of Thought had not yet appeared, let alone the Confucian and Taoist rules that were later nurtured by the Hundred Schools of Thought.

The emergence of Confucian and Taoist rules not only allows the lofty literary spirit of Confucian scholars all over the world to exert greater power.

It also makes it easier for Confucian scholars today to achieve enlightenment and breakthroughs than before the emergence of Confucian and Taoist rules.

That is why Duke Zhou was honored as a semi-saint and was called the Saint of Rites by Confucian scholars in later generations.

If he was born after the emergence of Confucianism and Taoism, he would at least be a saint of the sixth realm.

Once the Zhougong Bamboo Slips are restored to their original state, their potential will be unmatched by that of ordinary semi-saint treasures, and it is just right for Wenhou’s Dharma body to use.

“Hahaha, I’ve always heard that the Marquis values ​​righteousness over profit. Seeing you today, it’s true!”

“If I continue to be polite, it will hurt the friendship between our two families.”

Hearing this, Ge Qing laughed out loud.

Immediately, Jia Cong’s status in his heart was elevated a lot.

Without him!

Jia Cong’s words seemed to be an attempt to repay a favor with the Kong family’s treasures accumulated over countless years.

But if you look at his sincere words again.

I only want to express one thing. I will remember the help from Gexian Sect today!

But you must also take this benefit!
It is a generous and righteous act of a hero who believes that “treasures have a price, but friendship is priceless.”

This is enough to prove that the Ge Xian faction did not choose the wrong allies.

Having said that, Ge Yan stretched out his hand and only symbolically took one of the Kong family’s treasured eight-refined magic weapons, without any intention of taking more.

Although the Eight Refined Magical Weapon is precious, it is nothing compared to the Kong family’s collection of countless years.

Not to mention the billions of gold, silver, treasures and antiques.

According to Jia Cong’s perception, there are thousands of cultural relics of great scholars in the treasury below the Confucius Mansion.

There are more than a hundred cultural treasures from great scholars.

There are more than ten semi-saintly treasures.

There are still eight seven-refined magic weapons and one eight-refined magic weapon left after Ge Yan took one away.

As for magic weapons below the seventh level of refinement, there are more than forty magic weapons at the sixth level of refinement, and more than three hundred magic weapons below the sixth level of refinement.

Plus all the spiritual materials and medicines used for cultivation…

This inventory is undoubtedly the top of Confucianism and Taoism.

Jia Cong didn’t say much when he saw this, as it would be too cliché to say anything more.

After that, he gave a semi-saint treasure to Liu Yashan, a martial arts immortal of the royal family.

He ordered his ghost general and ghost soldiers to start searching and counting the spoils.

……

“Master, do you know how many semi-saints the Kong family still has wandering around?”

Jia Cong chatted with Ge Qing in the air.

“After the Marquis used lightning-fast methods to kill so many masters, how could the Kong family still have a few semi-saints?”

“As far as I know, there is only one late-stage semi-saint who has not appeared in Qufu today.”

“This person’s name is Kong Siming. He is extremely talented and achieved semi-sainthood at a very early age. He has less than a hundred years left to live.”

“The masters of the Kong family have been hiding in Konglin these years and rarely go out.”

“Speaking of which, the fifth realm is already in a state of transition.”

“I guess Kong Siming must have gone out to look for a precious medicine that can prolong life.”

“Otherwise, if Kong Siming dies a hundred years later, the Kong family will lose a late fifth realm expert, which will inevitably affect its position among the major forces.”

Ge Yan told the Gexian Sect everything they knew, including Kong Siming’s usual tactics and the classics that helped him break through.

Let Jia Cong have a general idea in his mind.

At the same time, I couldn’t help but sigh in my heart.

If one had not seen it with one’s own eyes, who would have imagined that the great Kong family would be beaten to the point of near destruction by Jia Cong in just two short years.

Both are top-notch forces.

Thanks to the Xuanmen’s longevity methods, the number of masters in the Gexian sect is slightly better than that of the Kong family.

However, if one wants to destroy the Kong family, one will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

A large number of experts were killed.

He is nothing like Jia Cong, who schemed layer by layer, weakened him repeatedly, and finally eliminated him in one fell swoop.

Just the power displayed in front of Jia Cong.

A semi-saint in the late fifth realm!

Eight masters of the fifth realm!
More than twenty statues in the fourth realm, and hundreds of statues in the third realm!

It is not considered weak among many top-notch forces.

As they were talking, the scholars outside the Confucius Forest had been asked to leave.

With the Kong family as the center, the area within a radius of twenty miles was blocked by ghost soldiers.

The ghost soldiers below have already dug out all of the Kong family’s treasures and are sorting them out.

The most precious of them has been temporarily put away by Baochai.

“I have lived in the mountain gate for a long time and have never gone out. I will take this opportunity to travel around with the Marquis’s Dharma body.”

“My Lord, if you still have things to do, you don’t have to accompany me any longer.”

At this time Ge Qing also spoke with a smile.

The intention to travel around was fake, but in fact he was preparing to help Jia Cong’s Wenhou Dharma body to escort Kong Yanjin and his party to the capital in secret.

The one who was preparing to ambush the last half-saint of the Kong family, Kong Siming, was real.

“I know I can’t hide it from the real person, but I have some things to deal with.”

“Thank you for your help this time, Master. Jia Cong will personally go to the Gexian Sect to express his gratitude in the future.”

Seeing this, Jia Cong bowed and expressed his gratitude.

Ge Qing stroked his pale beard with a smile on his face.

“Hahaha, my Lord, why do you have to be so distant? Just leave this to me!”

“As long as Kong Siming dares to show up, I will definitely keep him.”

“Thank you, Master!”

Jia Cong expressed his thanks, then spoke a few words to Baochai and the others before he turned into a streak of light and left.

……

Yingtian Prefecture

Outside Nanjing
“Master Miaomiao, what’s the situation?”

A monk in a yellow robe with his breasts exposed suddenly fell from the sky. A yellow ringworm on his bald head was extremely eye-catching.

Before him was the lame Taoist who was behind the conspiracy between the Kong family and the Westerners.

“I’m a step too late. I didn’t expect that Jia Cong not only broke through to the fifth realm, but also brought six fifth realm subordinates with him, and there are also masters from the Gexian Sect hiding in the dark.”

“Fortunately, the treasure given by the fairy concealed the traces, so I was not discovered. However, I was outnumbered just now, so I did not dare to take action.”

The lame Taoist sighed.

“That Jia Cong has already led people to the Kong family.”

“The late semi-saint of the Kong family is now in Tianzhu seeking a way to prolong his life, if my prediction is correct.”

“At this time, the Kong family had been massacred, and the Confucian rules also fell into the hands of Jia Cong.”

“I didn’t expect that after using so many pawns to secretly encourage the Kong family to form an alliance with the Westerners, it was finally broken by that little Jia Cong.”

“Damn it, I didn’t expect that even though I hurried so hard, I would still be a step late.”

When the crazy monk heard this, his face was immediately filled with resentment.

“Forget it, let’s not talk about this. Master Mangmang, you have returned from the fairyland. Has the fairy sent down any more decrees?”

“The fairy said that the restrictions of this world are still there, and she cannot take action, but the time for the great opportunity to appear is not far away.”

“Then the limits of heaven and earth will disappear.”

“Let us, no matter what, return the Fairy to her position as soon as possible. Only when everything is in harmony, can the Fairy be sure to win that great opportunity.”

The crazy monk looked embarrassed as he spoke.

“But the Liu royal family’s spirit of the state is in charge of Shenjing City. If you and I were to force our move, I’m afraid…”

“I don’t know which force made this move secretly. The Great Ancestor of Daqian had a master who took action with him.”

“The Nine Dragons were killed to nurture the spirit of the country. It seems that the spirit of the country of Daqian is far stronger than that of the previous dynasties.”

“Now that I think about it, I’m afraid it’s also a plan for this great struggle.”

“It’s a pity that the fairy planned for hundreds of years before making many women with top spiritual talents reincarnate into the Ning and Rong mansions.”

“I wanted to give it to the attendant Shen Ying to help him survive the disaster, but now it has been given to that Jia Cong kid.”

The lame Taoist looked in the direction of Emperor Taizu’s mausoleum, then sneered.

“I casually placed a chess piece in the past, and now it just happens to be useful.”

“Since we can’t enter Shenjing City, we should find a way to lure out the Shenying waiter!”

“We only need to go ten miles out of the city, and we can take the Divine Attendant away without alerting the spirit of the state.”

“As for letting the Divine Attendant Shenying return to his position after overcoming the calamity…”

“Master Mangmang, maybe the consequences will befall your traitor.”

The lame Taoist said this, looking at the crazy monk with a smile.

The latter’s face suddenly turned gloomy.

“Humph, I, the old monk, misjudged him back then, allowing him to grow up to be a serious threat to you.”

“This time we are fighting for a great opportunity, so please help me get rid of it!”
