Demoness, where are you Fleeing to?
Chapter 621 - 506

Chapter 621: 506

’Duogansi Khan’ Baimalamu looked at his eldest son, who was half-kneeling before him, and was stunned.

After a moment, his eyes bulged slightly, and his face flushed red.

"Losang Gongbu, what do you think you’re doing? Do you plan to betray your own father?"

Despite Losang Gongbu’s face turning exceptionally ugly, what other choices did he have?

The Marquis of Guanjun standing before him had detained his five merchant groups and nearly three hundred thousand teal’s worth of wealth.

His father, Duogansi Khan Baimalamu, for the sake of his grand ambition, was willing to break ties with Jin Dynasty, but Losang Gongbu didn’t have the luxury to do the same.

In the future, he wouldn’t inherit more than one thousand households of his father’s herd people. The rest belonged to his second brother.

His current household estate was totally sustained by the merchant groups on the Ancient Tea-Horse Road.

That emissary was right. Even if Marquis of Guanjun retreated from the Tibetan area, he, Marquis of Guanjun, would lose nothing.

Nothing at all! He will always remain the Marquis of Guanjun under the banner of the Jin dynasty, still a top-tier noble. As long as he is willing, he can stop Losang Gongbu from doing Jin business for the rest of his life.

Furthermore, all he, Losang Gongbu, needed to do was to make the first move. Then he and his descendants will not only get a vast fief, but also get at least twenty thousand folk from his father, becoming hereditary ’Xuanweishi of Duogansi’.

He was not only unwilling to refuse this stake but also couldn’t.

Losang Gongbu knew that he had no room to hesitate. His father was highly suspicious and if those rumors circulating among the herd people reached his father’s ears, it would surely arouse his suspicion.

His father, ’Duogansi Khan’, might not necessarily do anything to him, but surely take some of his authority.

"Lord Marquis of Guanjun!" Losang Gongbu suddenly looked up, his eyes bloodshot: "I, Losang Gongbu, am willing to serve as Xuanweishi for Jin!"

Since he had decided to turn against them, he might as well make it clear and decisive.

He did not have any intimate feelings for his so-called father anyway. His mother had died long ago, and there was no need to consider her feelings.

The ’Duogansi Khan’ Baimalamu, however, was so dizzy with rage that he exclaimed, "You beast!"

He swung a blade of light towards Losang Gongbu’s head. But at this moment, another beam of golden light was coming towards him. It was thrown by the ’Dari Golden Body’ of Jinping Dharma King, dispersing the blade of light from afar.

The prince Deji Yangzong and the Jinggang Dharma King who were present, could not help but glare at the Jinping Dharma King in anger.

Just now they also tried to stop the golden sunlight wheel, but the Law of Sun was too fast, and they were one step slower.

Jinping Dharma King, however, remained cold, silent.

His ’Dari Tathagata’s Body’ had already summoned many golden sun wheels, ready for battle at any time.

He had only promised Li Xuan that he would not let anyone get injured or die here today, but hadn’t vowed to take a shot at ’Duogansi Khan’.

But Jinping Dharma King did not care to explain this to the crowd, nor did he want to show any signs of weakness.

"The post of Xuanweishi of Duogansi is yours."

Li Xuan looked satisfied as he handed the imperial decree to Losang Gongbu: "You may select twenty thousand folk from your father’s people. The site will still be in Dege, with five groups of three hundred people from Sichuan being permitted each year on your side."

He then took out another mandated decree: "Who is the Xuanweishi of Ganzi present?"

The pupils of ’Duogansi Khan’ Baimalamu constricted again, and he stared at another of his sons, ’Dejizhuoma’, with a look of utter betrayal.

Since Losang Gongbu had betrayed him, it was only natural that Dejizhuoma, who was a twin brother of Losang Gongbu, was no longer trustworthy.

Baimalamu even gripped the handle of his knife, ready to murder at any moment ——

However, the man who stepped out from behind him was his most trusted general, ’Shaker’. He too was half-kneeling in front of Li Xuan: "Shaker is willing to serve as Xuanweishi of Ganzi."

"Shaker ——"

’Duogansi Khan’ Baimalamu found it difficult to breathe, his voice was hoarse as if he was a wounded lion: "Why? Why are you betraying me? Where did I wrong you? Why are you betraying Khan?"

Shaker was the only Wu cultivator at the Twelfth Layer Stage among his five ten-thousand households, and a general capable of forming heavenly level war power while riding fifty thousand forces.

So Duogansi Khan treated Shaker with extraordinary favor and courtesies, attracting him incessantly.

This betrayal was what he could not particularly handle.

Shaker, however, remained silent. In his heart, he thought that Baimalamu indeed treated him with great esteem, often gifting him with numerous treasures.

But he was unyielding, refusing to give him his own people and land, or provide him with an estate that could pass down through generations.

Shaker was often resentful of this, thinking that if he was in the Central Plains, he would be a big wealthy man, win hundreds of thousands of acres of land for his descendants, and even gather enough resources to hit the heavenly level.

Now, everything Shaker wanted could be easily obtained from Marquis of Guanjun of Jin.

Ganzi was later known as Kangding, to the east of Dege, with very fertile pastures.

The vast majority of the area had been given to the ’Anguo Dharma King’, but the remaining parts were enough to support a Xuanwei Division of 20,000 households.

However, the reason he accepted the appointment from the Xuanwei Division of Ganzi was not because of this hereditary land and tribal hereditary position. Rather, it was because the Duogansi ship was already sinking.

Shaker knew the prestige of Duogansi Khan’s two illegitimate sons among the herders; these two could draw thirty thousand cavalrymen away from Khan’s subordinates.

Under these circumstances, should he still stick with Duogansi and sink with him?

Moreover, Jinping Dharma King has actually sided with this Marquis of Guanjun.

Few people knew that he was a devout believer of Wencheng Temple. He had personally witnessed this Dharma King in action, a level of power beyond the reach of the twelve Dharma Kings of Qinghai-Tibet.

"That’s a funny thing to say." Li Xuan sneered contemptuously: "Actually, I also want to know, where has the Great Jin Dynasty wronged you, the Duogansi people and where have we acted disgracefully, leading the Duogansi Zhihuishi to bear betrayal in their hearts against our dynasty, and even massacring our people?"

He then handed the imperial decree to Shaker: "Because ’Zhihuishi of Duogansi Baimalamu colludes with the Mongols, plotting to assassinate the Dynasty’s minister, harboring intentions of rebellion, thus is dismissed as of today.

Today, General Shaker has returned to the right path, his heart commendable. General Shaker, you can select twenty thousand from the herders under Duogansi’s domain to establish the Xuanwei Division of Ganzi. The location for settlement should be at Ganzi, each year, your household is allowed to fill four trading quota of three hundred people."

At this moment, Li Xuan noticed that the four people including Dejizhuoma, behind Duogansi Khan, had their faces flushed.

Li Xuan was too lazy to hand out each one individually, he said directly, "Please, Xuanweishi of the Holy Tibetan, Xuanweishi of Baiyu, Xuanweishi of Changdu, Xuanweishi of Gongjue would come forward for the imperial decree."

Four people, led by Dejizhuoma, without any hesitation, came forward and knelt halfway in front of Li Xuan.

’Khan Duogansi’ Baimalamu originally had a firm decision. If his third son Dejizhuoma dared to betray him, he would certainly spare no effort in eliminating this sinful son,

But at this moment, his face turned pale as paper, his pupils dilated and all his energy and will were on the verge of collapse.

All his ambition and aspirations had completely disappeared at this moment.

He had a total of only eight Wu cultivators at The Fourth Gate under his control, but six of them have defected. Under such circumstances, how can they talk about unifying Duogansi and competing with the Jin Dynasty?

Looking equally pale were ’Khan Duogansi’ and his first son, along with ’Prince Anburo’ Deji Yangzong and ’Vajra Dharma King’.

They came on invitation, planning to eliminate the Jin Dynasty’s Marquis Guanjun here, to cut off the clutches that the Jin people had extended. However, they never imagined such an outcome after their arrival.

The pupils of Liu Zongquan also looked extremely grim. He had thought that he could capture Li Xuan, the Five Spirits Body, with the help of ’Khan Duogansi’.

"Khan Duogansi!"

Prince Anburo Deji Yangzong still couldn’t accept the defeat, his eyes wide open in anger, his voice thunderous: "Don’t forget, you have the bloodline of the successive Tibetan Kings (Zanpu)! You master the ’Blood Spirit Flag’ and ’Mountain Armor’, the sacred objects.

Behind you, there is our Zanpu Division. You also have the Array established by the Central Plains man. Kill these traitors. You, Baimalamu, are still the master of Duogansi!"

Khan Duogansi’s spirit vibrated slightly, his scattered eyes recondensed and a violent killing intention condensed in his eyes.

He thought he hadn’t lost yet. Despite losing the support of his subordinates and the force of ten thousand armies at this time, he still had two sacred objects in his hand, whose power is equivalent to the Immortal Treasures of the Central Plains people.

Here, there are still three heavenly level individuals willing to be at his disposal!

His eldest illegitimate son, Losang Gongbu, looked back at his father indifferently, then bowed to Li Xuan: "My Lord, as I told the envoy yesterday, the Array established by the Central Plains man seems to be aimed at your Yangtang Divine Saber.

However, now, as long as you give an order, I can damage this Array!"

The mood of Liu Zongquan became even colder. His Array was not resistant to internal sabotage.

At this time, Shaker also placed one hand on his saber, and the other hand on his chest: "Marquis Guanjun, as long as you grant me temporary leadership over a few people, I will help you kill that ’Mount Everest Prince’ of Anburo."

Actually, Shaker did not want to fight with his previous master, but the situation was a matter of life and death, and there was no room for retreat!

"You all did well!" Li Xuan smiled slightly, his demeanor was appreciative: "However, today, I promised someone, and I will avoid unnecessary bloodshed."

He opened the Song of Righteousness folding fan in his chest in one go, then looked at some direction coldly: "Anguo Dharma King, if you still refuse to show up, within a month, I will lead a large army to level your Anguo Temple!"

Right as he finished speaking, a long sigh emanated from the void in the distance.

It was followed by a Buddhist title which resounded in everyone’s ears like a bell.

"Buddha of Infinite Life!"

With that voice, a figure wearing a Lama robe and headdress appeared on the east side of Dege city.

However, this individual’s attire was different from the other Dharma Kings. Not only was it bright yellow, but also decorated with innumerable jewels, looking very luxurious,

Behind him, there was also a giant Buddha statue. The Buddha had a crown on its head, emitted light from between its eyebrows, illuminating everything. Its body was golden colored, with both hands forming the fists of wisdom. The kasaya it was wearing was also glamorous with pearls and treasures

That is the so-called ’Trailokyavijaya’, rumored to be the leader of the Eastern Pure Land World that is free from defilements -

Upon appearing, he cast an indifferent look at everyone led by Khan Duogansi: "I have been ordered by Marquis Guanjun here today to eradicate traitors. How dare you rebels offend the Marquis Guanjun?"

At this time, Khan Duogansi’s eyes have also turned ashen.

Who is this Lama in front of him? It’s the Anguo Dharma King who owns the ’Anguo Temple’, and his land covers more than half of Ganzi (Kangding)!

Although he’s not at the heavenly level, his powers rank among the top five of the twelve Dharma Kings in Qinghai-Tibet.

Is it possible that even this Anguo Dharma King has been subdued by the Marquis Guanjun of the Jin Dynasty?
