The Earth Is My Dantian - Chapter 85
Chapter 85 Chapter 30, the furious Yang Ji (fourth update)
The quasi-sage’s rebuke left the founding Duke Yang Ji and the Empress Speechless.
The founding Duke Yang Ji glared angrily at Zhou Yuan, wishing he could draw his sword and slash Zhou Yuan.
The Empress’s expression was ugly, but she held back her anger and said in a low voice, “Your Majesty, I have been disrespectful.”
Qin ershi said indifferently, “Your Majesty, there’s no need to be like this. The quasi-sage also has something wrong.”
The Empress fell silent. There was also something wrong with the quasi-sage. Didn’t this mean that she was also at fault? Ye sheng whispered, “Your father is so powerful.”
The corners of Beauty Zhou’s mouth curled up, she was secretly pleased, “Of course. My father is the head of all the civil servants in the world. Even though he only manages the academies and doesn’t care about political matters, eight out of ten of the ten layers of civil servants are his father’s students. He’s also the only person who can contend against King Ye in Great Qin.”
Ye Sheng clicked his tongue; he had never thought that the quasi-sage would be so powerful.
King ye was the strongest in the world, and he commanded close to a million soldiers. Even the founding Duke, Yang Ji, was a subordinate of King Ye. For Zhou Yuan to be able to contend against King Ye, one could see how capable and intelligent he was.
Zhou Yuan cupped his fists and said, “Your Majesty, this year’s West Mountain Hunt has ended. Please check who is the first, and the rewards that should be rewarded should end this matter as soon as possible. The essence of the West Mountain Hunt is to select talents for the imperial court, but in the past, it has lost its essence and fallen to the bottom. There are too many areas for reform.”

Yang ji said unhappily, “Scholars like you are always talking about reform. Everything is for reform. Why Don’t you reform yourselves?” Zhou Yuanli ignored Yang Ji and completely ignored him, giving off a domineering aura.
A Stage 1 scholar had ignored a founding duke. This showed the younger generation like Ye Sheng how great Qin’s officialdom worked.
The waves and clouds were treacherous.
Qin ershi nodded and said, “It’s good that all of you have been able to walk out of the hunting range. As for what happened in there, you can forget about it after you come out.”
“Yes, your Majesty!”The hundred or so people said in unison.
“The Western Mountain Hunt is based on crystal cores. Now, all of you can take out your crystal cores. It’s clear who has the most and who has the least,”Qin Ershi said.
“Your Majesty, the first place in this year’s Western Mountain Hunt belongs to the commoner.”Liu Liangfeng, who had been silent all this time, stood out and said loudly.
Liu Liangfeng was tall and had an extraordinary appearance. He wore white clothes and was somewhat handsome.
“Oh, how many do you have?”Qin Ershi asked with interest. “8,900 crystal cores,”Liu Liangfeng said proudly. He took out a bulging bag from behind and slowly opened it. Countless crystal cores appeared.
“More than 8,000 crystal cores. How did he do it?”Everyone was stunned. Even Ye Sheng’s heart was racing. It was a close call. It was really close.
Ye Sheng looked at Qin Cang and expressed his gratitude. If he hadn’t helped Ye Sheng, Ye Sheng and Beauty Zhou, who didn’t care about their reputation, would have cried.
The rest of the contestants were envious, jealous, and resentful. Looking at the shiny crystal cores, they couldn’t help but sigh.
Only one monk had a bitter expression on his face. He clasped his small hands together and looked at the crystal core bitterly. He closed his eyes, but he couldn’t bear to do so. He hurriedly opened them, but when he opened them, his heart ached again. He closed them again, feeling very conflicted.
He was the heartless monk from the Great Forest Temple. It was because he had lost to Liu Liangfeng that he had lost all the 4,000 crystal cores he had. Now, they were all empty.
Qin ershi said in surprise, “If I remember correctly, this should be the highest number in the past, right?”
Yang ji nodded and said, “The highest record is 8,200 crystals. This is indeed a new record.”
“That’s right. This has really opened my eyes. This should be the number one. Is there anyone higher than this?”Qin Ershi asked.
Liu Liangfeng stood there calmly. His entire body was relaxed. He was not worried at all that he would lose. Because no one would be taller than him.
“Your Majesty, I have more crystal cores than him.”Ye Sheng stepped forward. Liu Liangfeng frowned and turned to look at Ye Sheng. He saw that Ye Sheng was only at the sixth sky of Houtian realm. He frowned but did not say anything.
Noble Consort Ye saw her younger brother step forward and looked at him in surprise. could he really become number one?
Qin Ershi pointed at ye Sheng and said, “I remember you. You Are Noble Consort Ye’s younger brother and also the heir of King Ye. Do you have more crystal cores than this?”
Ye Sheng did not say anything. He poured out all his crystal cores and said, “Your Majesty, there are nine thousand of them here. It just happens to exceed Liu Liangfeng’s number.”
Liu Liangfeng gritted his teeth and closed his eyes. He knew that he had lost. His expression was extremely unwilling. He had lost a hundred of them.
“Ye Sheng, you are only at the sixth heaven of the postnatal realm. How can you have so many crystal cores?”Yang Ji suddenly shouted angrily. He stared at Ye Sheng sternly like the King of Hell.
This angry shout startled everyone. Even Zhou Yuan looked at Yang Ji in surprise. What was wrong with him again?
Only Ye Sheng was not frightened because when he stood up, the founding Duke had locked onto Ye Sheng. His aura became heavier and heavier. It was obvious that he was suppressing himself. If it wasn’t for Qin Ershi.., he would have already made his move.
He recognized Ye Sheng.
He knew that Ye Sheng’s mother was the Holy Maiden of the Samsara sect.
The Holy Maiden of the Samsara sect had once chopped off one of Yang Ji’s arms and chased after him for five thousand miles. She was in an extremely sorry state. If it wasn’t for King Ye’s help, Yang Ji would have long been a skeleton in the grave.
This matter was Yang Ji’s lifelong humiliation. He had countless battle achievements in his life, but he had never been humiliated like this. Yang Ji, who had his arm chopped off by a woman and chased after her for five thousand miles, had been lucky enough to escape with his life all these years, he gnashed his teeth in hatred. He dreamed in the middle of the night and wished he could tear the Holy Maiden of the Samsara sect into pieces.
Now that the Holy Maiden of the Samsara sect was dead, but her son was still alive. It was Ye Sheng. How could Yang Ji Spare Ye Sheng?
“There doesn’t seem to be a rule in the west mountain hunting that says I have to tell you the origin of these crystal cores, right?”Ye Sheng said coldly, staring fearlessly at Yang Ji.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that you’re the founding Duke. I’m not afraid of you.
Even my mother can chase after you and kill you. If I, as your son, am afraid of you, that would be a joke.
Yang Ji understood the meaning behind ye Sheng’s expression, and his anger grew even more. He took a step forward, and his aura surged forward like a collapsing snow mountain.
Rumble!
This aura instantly enveloped the entire scene, and everyone’s hearts trembled.
“Impudent!”Quasi-sage Zhou Yuan’s face was livid. With an angry shout, he spat out great righteous energy that transformed into a ‘suppress’word that locked down all of Yang Ji’s aura.
“His Majesty is here. Yang Ji, do you want to Rebel?”Zhou Yuan shouted coldly.
Qin Ershi’s eyes were dark as he stared at Yang Ji with a gloomy expression.
Yang Ji recovered from his anger and hurriedly said, “Your Majesty, Please Forgive me. I have been impolite and deserve to die for my crimes. Please forgive me, Your Majesty.”
“Yang Ji, please take your leave,”Qin Ershi said indifferently. There was no emotion in his words.
Yang Ji felt a chill in his heart. He knew that he had offended the public. He glared at Ye Sheng and turned around to leave.
Ye Sheng stood calmly the whole time. There was no change in his expression.
His mother’s defeated opponent, what was there to be afraid of?
