The secret realm in the depths of Taihu Lake is in a state of chaos. Houses have collapsed, and flowers and trees have withered. The grandeur of the past is completely gone.

Some of this... well, many of the reasons are because the Yin soldiers from Huashan fought with the water monsters originally stationed here after they invaded the divine realm, but some of them are due to a frustrated Dragon Lord who handed over Taihu Lake

After gaining authority, he acted in a hurry to vent his anger.

In the already somewhat empty Lingxu Palace, a group of victors began a meeting to share the spoils... and dispose of the spoils.

As the leader among the winners, Kong Qing stood up and presided over the meeting without hesitation.

"This time we defeated Taihu Dragon Lord and established the divine domain of Jianghuai in one fell swoop. It was all due to the efforts of everyone! Although Taihu Water Lord was not killed in the end, it was due to accidental factors and was not a crime of war..."

Kong Qing raised his head and glanced at the people present.

"Now that the situation has been decided, it's time to reward based on merit..."

As he spoke, he unfolded his sleeves and threw out the two talismans that shone with golden light in an understatement.

"This is our most important trophy, the divine seal of the land of Taihu Lake and Songjiang!"

Following the words, these two talismans representing the two important water system authorities in the Jianghuai land fell lightly on the table in front of these 'people' present.

Just when the divine seal appeared, there were only Fan Li sitting on the side, the three mountain god brothers of Phoenix Mountain, and the nominal commander of the Huashan Yin soldiers who disappeared during a certain battle and ran out to pick peaches after the battle.

Huashan Saburo's eyes became straight at the same time...

"Our first achievement in this battle is naturally..."

Having said this, Kong Qing paused deliberately, and his eyes changed again from Huashan Saburo, who had a eager face, and did not directly write the word "click me" on his face, to Fan Li, who pretended to be calm, but had eager eyes.

And even though they knew it couldn't be him, they still had a glimmer of hope on the three mountain god brothers.

"... poor Taoist!"

As soon as the words came out, the expressions on the faces of the three brothers Huashan Sanlang, Fan Li and Shanshen suddenly became extremely complicated. Especially Huashan Sanlang's face was filled with indignation, as if he would start a crime the next moment.

Kong Qing pretended not to see their faces and said to himself.

"As the first achievement of this battle, Pindao has chosen the divine seal of God Pixi..."

Snapped!

Before Kong Qing finished speaking, he saw Huashan Sanlang slamming the table and standing up.

"Qingwei, how could you...wait a minute, you are talking about the throne of Feixi? Not the throne of Songjiang and Taihu?"

"of course not!"

Kong Qing shook his fly whisk and looked at him calmly.

"Why, Saburo-kun, do you feel dissatisfied?"

"this……"

Saburo Huashan twitched the corners of his mouth and showed an awkward smile.

"Not at all. What you said, Qingwei, is so right. You should be the first to do it. This is... sighing at the joints, yes, sighing at the joints!"

Saying that, Huashan Saburo quickly sat down again.

"Qingwei, keep talking, keep talking!"

"Ninth Lady, come in!"

Kong Qing waved to the outside, and saw Qiu Jiuniang, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked in from the outside with a gentle step, and bowed down to the people present.

"Jiuniang has met all fellow Taoists!"

"Everyone, it was Jiuniang who discovered the Taihu Dragon Lord's intervention in the dragon fight. Moreover, after Jiuniang notified Pindao, she still decided to stay in Jianghuai to fight behind enemy lines. Even Tao Zhugong was contacted by Jiuniang.

…”

Kong Qing generously counted Qiu Jiuniang's achievements, and then looked around.

"So I am a poor man who rewards my merits and gave the throne of Peixi to Jiuniang. I believe you all have no objections, right?"

"No no……"

Following Kong Qing's gaze, all the people present nodded, indicating that they fully recognized it.

"Since everyone agrees, then Jiuniang you will be the goddess of Feixi from now on."

Kong Qing pointed at Fan Li and Phoenix Mountain God.

"I went to meet a few seniors. You will need their support in Jianghuai in the future..."

"yes!"

Qiu Jiuniang agreed, and then bowed to Fan Li and the others again.

"Jiuniang has met Dr. Fan, the Lord Cheng!"

"Don't dare..."

I don't know whether it was to improve future relations or to give Kong Qing face, but after Qiu Jiuniang saluted, all the gods present responded politely.

After the ceremony was over, Kong Qing raised the corners of his mouth slightly and continued.

"Except for Pindao, is this battle a minor success?"

In an instant, the eyes of Huashan Sanlang, Fan Li and the Mountain God brothers burst out again, and their ten eyes looked at Kong Qing without blinking.

"Of course..."

Kong Qing's eyes fell on a handsome middle-aged man sitting on the side with a relaxed expression.

"...Commanded and planned, calmly defeated the enemy, first defeated the water demons led by Songjiang God and Peixi God, then moved the tiger away from the mountain, and defeated Brother Yao from the Taihu God Realm with a Sixth Army Mirror!"

"No no no..."

After hearing that the topic turned to himself, Li Jing suddenly looked stunned and quickly waved his hands humbly.

"Actually, a certain person is just..."

Snapped!

Before Li Jing could finish what he said, Huashan Saburo was furious when he heard that the second meritorious service was not his own, and he slapped his palm on the table again.

"Qingwei, that's not what you said when you came to Huashan to borrow troops. Could it be that you plan to break your oath?"

"Of course I won't break my oath, but it's just borrowing troops... In other words, if you don't say a word, Sanlang-kun, and don't cause trouble, your achievements can't be compared to Senior Brother Yao!"

Kong Qing answered very frankly, and then spread his hands.

"As the saying goes, there are always thousand-mile horses, but not always Bole. There are many gods who can lend troops, but there are not many people who can lead these dark soldiers to win the battle!"

"Qingwei, you are too complimentary,"

Li Jing immediately continued speaking humbly from the side.

"Actually, someone..."

Snapped!

Saburo Huashan clapped his hands on the table again and said excitedly.

"Qingwei, you are talking nonsense! Without the heroic fighting of the elite of Huashan during this period, how could the battle be won? Can Li Yaoshi alone win this battle?"

"I agree with what you said!"

Kong Qing nodded slightly, indicating that everything Huashan Sanlang said was right.

"But those are all the contributions of General Peng, the two Yu Hous and all the soldiers. Even if you are their commander, you can't take all the credit, right?"

"Since they are from Huashan, this matter is an internal matter of Huashan."

As he said this, Saburo Huashan waved his hand involuntarily.

"Although they are not from Huashan in life, they are ghosts of Huashan in death. Their contribution is the contribution of Huashan, and the contribution of Sanlang of Huashan..."

After hearing what Saburo Huashan said, Kong Qing raised the corners of his mouth slightly and silently gave him a thumbs up.

"Sanlang-kun, you didn't even plan to ask the parties involved for their opinions, but just took their credit directly. Is it appropriate?"

"It doesn't matter whether you ask or not..."

Sanlang Huashan waved his hand carelessly.

"These shady soldiers are dogs raised by Huashan. Life, death, and seizure are all in my hands. I just asked, do they dare to disagree?"

As he spoke, he turned around and looked at Peng Le and the two giants Yu Hou behind him.

"Say, your credit goes to someone, okay?"

After hearing what Saburo Huashan said, a look of dissatisfaction flashed across the faces of Peng Le and the two giants Yu Hou who were standing behind him, but then they bowed and answered blankly.

"Follow Saburo-kun's orders!"

"good!"

Sanlang Huashan turned his head and looked at Kong Qing with provocative eyes.

"Now that someone says that someone is a minor meritorious worker, that's no problem, right?"

"no problem!"
