Meng Geng of the White Path said, "Eliminating the Zhuxie Sect sooner is fortunate for the people of the entire world."
"Fourth Prince's merits are immeasurable," Wanbi City nodded. "It's just a pity that I couldn't help and didn't contribute."
Meng Geng nodded.

This was also something he felt quite regretful about.
He originally wanted to get closer, but he had no chance. The Fourth Prince left Tianjing early to destroy the Zhuxie Sect's main altars in various parts of Da Meng.
In the blink of an eye, more than three months had passed.
He suddenly heard someone lower their voice: "It seems the Fourth Prince is returning to the capital!"
"Returning to the capital?"
"It is said that His Majesty summoned him."
"His Majesty is going to reward him. Such great merit deserves a heavy reward."
"Indeed, he must be heavily rewarded, but when will the Fourth Prince return to the capital?"
"It should be in the next two days. The specific time is unknown."
"That must be kept secret, otherwise, if those lurking demon people hear it, they will definitely risk their lives to assassinate him."
'These demon people will definitely be crazy.'
Hearing this, Meng Geng's eyes lit up, and he looked around intently, then looked towards the direction of the Sifang Pavilion.
The Da Jing delegation in the Sifang Pavilion had already left, and the current Da Jing Pavilion was empty.
He just didn't know how the Fourth Prince's return would be arranged, and whether he could visit again.
The setting sun was slanting.
The setting sun shone on Tianjing City.
Outside the South Gate of Tianjing City, a team of knights galloped forward.
At the head was a handsome young man, wearing a purple robe, with a face like jade, and bright and deep eyes.
Behind him, he carried a saber and a sword, his demeanor calm and peaceful. It was Chu Zhiyuan.
To his left was Qin Guanghe, as burly as a bear, and to his right was Li Biyang, smiling cheerfully.
Zou Fang followed behind them.
Chu Zhiyuan glanced at the crowded city gate and smiled: "Prince, Lord Qin, we will have to part ways after entering the city. Who knows when we will be together again."
"Prince, there will be opportunities," Li Biyang smiled. "Can I follow you to Da Zhen?"
"You go by yourself?"
"Yes," Li Biyang said. "Every time I see a Zhuxie Sect's main altar destroyed, I feel invigorated and benefit immensely."
So many people were not needed to break the formations, but they did not withdraw and still followed him.
The one thousand Cloud-Treading Iron Cavalry and five hundred Imperial Guards did was destruction.
They completely destroyed the entire main altar so that it could not be rebuilt.
At the same time, they collected the wealth and treasures within the main altar, gathered them together, and transported them back to Tianjing.
These wealth and treasures would be split in half by Chu Zhiyuan and Da Meng.
Li Biyang said: "In the past three months, I have made rapid progress, and the Grandmaster Realm has finally been completely fulfilled."
He didn't expect that helping to destroy the Zhuxie Sect's main altar would have such a huge harvest.
This was faster than cultivating in seclusion by himself.
Moreover, being by Chu Zhiyuan's side, he could ask him about some cultivation doubts, and he would give guidance without hesitation, which benefited him even more.
Eight parts of this rapid progress were due to Chu Zhiyuan's guidance, and two parts were due to destroying the Zhuxie Sect's main altar.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Prince, you will soon see the door to the Great Grandmaster."
"My aptitude is not that good, I'm afraid— — —" Li Biyang had no confidence.
He judged that he might not be able to step into the Great Grandmaster Realm, and even if he could, it would take a long time to hone himself.
Chu Zhiyuan looked at the pedestrians coming and going at the South Gate, carefully analyzing their identities, whether they were merchants, farmers, nobles, or martial arts masters, and smiled: "Prince, you are too self-deprecating."
Li Biyang was half-convinced.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "The path to the Great Grandmaster is not quite the same as you think. The key is still the original heart. Find your original heart, and then follow your original heart, be confident and focused, and then you will see the door to the Great Grandmaster."
"Be confident and focused..." Li Biyang pondered.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "This sentence has said more than half of the mystery of the Great Grandmaster."
"Be confident and focused..." Li Biyang chewed on this sentence.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "What you do is in line with your original heart, which not only does not damage your nature, but also strengthens your nature, thereby making your spirit pure."
"You will see your true self, and you will also see the world."
Li Biyang tried his best to understand these words.
Chu Zhiyuan said: "In short, you don't have to think too much, you will soon see the door to the Great Grandmaster, probably within this month."
"A month?" Li Biyang asked quickly.
Chu Zhiyuan nodded slowly: "This is my conservative estimate. Maybe you will see it tomorrow."
"Hehe— — — —" Li Biyang suddenly raised the corners of his mouth and couldn't help it.
Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said: "This time, Ninth Prince will no longer be able to complain that your Da Meng royal family has no successors."
Li Biyang smiled with his mouth raised: "I am not a Great Grandmaster yet."
He had great faith in Chu Zhiyuan and very much believed in Chu Zhiyuan's judgment.
Since he said that he would be able to see the door to the Great Grandmaster within a month, it should be about the same.
Thinking that he was about to become a Great Grandmaster, he really couldn't suppress his joy.
Stepping into the Great Grandmaster Realm was not only an improvement in cultivation, but also greater freedom from then on.
More importantly, it was the throne.
The Emperor was young, and after he abdicated, it was estimated that he would no longer let the princes inherit the throne.
That would be the princes of their generation, and among the princes, he was the first to become a Great Grandmaster.
The cultivation of the other princes was very far from the Grandmaster Realm's fulfillment.
A step ahead, a step ahead.
After achieving the Great Grandmaster, too many people would bet on him and work for him.
Once an advantage was established, it would be easier to accumulate merits and earn people's hearts, and gain popularity.
When the Son of Heaven Sword chooses its master, how can it not choose him?
"Let's go, let's enter the city," Chu Zhiyuan urged his horse and went into the city.
In the brightly lit hall of the Da Meng Fengtian Palace, Chu Zhiyuan and Li Hongzhao were sitting at a round table.
The sandalwood table carved with phoenix patterns was filled with delicious delicacies, and the jade cup was filled with fine wine.
Chu Zhiyuan picked up a piece of demon beast meat and slowly chewed it in his mouth.
Li Hongzhao wore a wide red robe, exquisitely beautiful.
The light reflected her phoenix eyes, full of brilliance, and between her glances, she was captivating.
She chuckled and said, "These three months have been hard enough."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "It's okay. I think the person you should thank the most is Seventh Prince."
"Is Seventh Prince still worth making?"
"Very good. His aptitude is indeed extraordinary," Chu Zhiyuan nodded. "His temperament is also extremely good. If there are no accidents, he will be able to see the door to the Great Grandmaster in the next few days."
Li Hongzhao clapped her hands: "Good!"
Chu Zhiyuan said: "You have no worries this time, right?"
Li Hongzhao smiled like a flower, her beauty shining.
Chu Zhiyuan took a sip of fine wine.
He could be considered returning the favor.
Li Hongzhao had no worries this time and could safely choose to ascend.
"With this Great Grandmaster, I will not have failed my father, and I will be able to give an explanation to the ancestors."
Chu Zhiyuan said: "Is the Son of Heaven Sword mastered well enough?"
He looked up at the void.
The Son of Heaven Sword had become agile, and it was as if it was not the same sword as he had seen three months ago.
Li Hongzhao smiled and said: "Thanks to you, the people's hearts have returned."
"Has the military been straightened out too?" Chu Zhiyuan felt that he had almost completely mastered the Son of Heaven Sword.
"Almost," Li Hongzhao smiled proudly. "These guys are okay at fighting."
They were too lacking in scheming. With a few tricks, she divided them into pieces and could only submit to her.
"Can you ascend?" Chu Zhiyuan asked.
Li Hongzhao said: "My cultivation is still a little short. It will be about the same in a while."
"So, it won't take ten years?"
"I didn't expect the effect of clearing out the Zhuxie Sect to be so good," Li Hongzhao said. "Now it seems that I will be able to ascend within a year or two."
Chu Zhiyuan nodded.
"This time, I will take a step ahead," Li Hongzhao said proudly. "You are still early."
Chu Zhiyuan shook his head and had nothing to say.
Now it seemed that it was indeed impossible to be earlier than Li Hongzhao.
