Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Chapter 1539 The Untamed 19

Even if the forces of the hundreds of immortal families gathered together to fight against the Wen family and its accomplices, there was not only one voice within the hundreds of immortal families. The Lan family always adhered to the doctrine of the mean and did not show up too much. Moreover, they did not have the temperament to be the leader of the alliance, so they took a step back early on.

Although the Jiang family has the spirit of "doing something knowing it is impossible", they cannot use it blindly in such a place. It would be fine if they took the lead at the beginning, but if they cannot retreat a little in the middle and late stages, they will end up on the same path as the Wen family.

Therefore, the Qinghe Nie clan, whose temperament and personality were very suitable for standing on the stage, stepped forward without hesitation, and the clan leader, Nie Mingjue, became the leader of the alliance.

Below Nie Mingjue are of course Jiang Cheng and Lan Huan. As for Jin Zixuan, although he participated in the war on behalf of the Jin family, everyone knew that this was just because the old fox Jin Guangshan saw the changes in the battlefield situation, so he increased his support for Jin Zixuan. He even increased his support by paying Jin Zixuan to replace Jiang Cheng and take charge of logistics support.

Jiang Cheng didn't have any opinion on this. He knew that as the young master of the Jiang family, he couldn't always be away from the front line. What's more, although Jin Guangshan had too many little tricks, he showed real support. Although it was disgusting, it was impossible to blame him. He just had to guard against Jin Guangshan's excessive tricks.

Lan Huan had even less objection. After all, the Lan family was more inclined to go to the front line, and Jin Zixuan's character was also guaranteed. After Wei Ying escaped from the Wen family's Supervisory Office, the remaining disciples from the aristocratic families who were studying there also owed Jin Zixuan a lot of favors, which made Jin Zixuan's position as the heir to the Jin family even more stable.

As for Jiang Cheng who was switched to the front line, he had already prepared his own inside player in terms of logistics - Meng Yao.

Although some of the memories were already very vague, Yunping City had just been cleaned up by the Jiang family, so all the matters concerning Meng Shi and Meng Yao were laid out before Jiang Cheng. To be honest, there had been rumors before that Meng Yao was kicked out of Jinlintai by Jin Guangshan on the day of Jin Zixuan's birthday, but after all, no one in the Jiang family saw it with their own eyes, and Meng Yao later joined the Qinghe Nie family, so the Jiang family did not take the initiative to investigate at the time because of the marriage alliance with the Jin family.

Now that he remembered it, Jiang Cheng couldn't let Meng Yao, a talent who was good at internal affairs, slip away from his hands, so he used all his skills and elixirs. Now all that was left was Meng Yao's formal nod.

Meng Yao is a person who has had too complicated experiences since childhood and has seen too many fickle things in life. She cannot be won over by just saying a few words of support or giving her some small favors. Fortunately, Jiang Cheng can see that both himself and the Jiang family have a high degree of favorability in Meng Yao's mind, so he has the opportunity to win over Meng Yao.

And Meng Yao himself is indeed better at holding the rear than going to the front line to kill the enemy.

Jiang Cheng did not give the skills and elixirs casually, but had his own reasons, "For cultivators, the most important thing is cultivation, and the most important thing for cultivation is the skills, while elixirs are just auxiliary. Master Meng, you entered the sect too late, and your physique is ordinary. Unless you have the top skills, you will not be able to achieve anything."

It's not that Meng Yao didn't understand this question, but Jiang Cheng provided the skills and elixirs with a sincere look on his face, which made him absolutely sure that the other party really wanted to help him solve the problem and had no other intentions.

Meng Yao knew that Jiang Cheng was a straightforward person, so she asked directly, "Why did you spend so much effort on Meng Yao, Master Jiang? Meng Yao believes that there is nothing worth plotting against me, Master Jiang."

Speaking of this, Meng Yao couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

Jiang Cheng said bluntly: "My Jiang family lacks a talent like Mr. Meng who is good at internal affairs."

"But the Jiang family is one of the five great families after all. Even the elders who manage internal affairs need a certain level of cultivation. Moreover, I think that although you, Mr. Meng, have a weak foundation, your comprehension and character are good. With the resources provided by the Jiang family, you may achieve something in the future."

"To put it bluntly, I think you, Mr. Meng, are worth investing in."

When Meng Yao thought about these words, he realized that Jiang Cheng was optimistic about his abilities and talents, but despised his cultivation level, so he showed his intention to recruit him and couldn't wait to improve his cultivation level.

Meng Yao was a little amused and confused, but she felt that Jiang Cheng was much easier to get along with than Nie Mingjue.

The young master of the Jiang family is not lacking in skills and intelligence. He also has a very good character and great means. At least he has tacitly joined the Yunmeng Jiang family as a guest official.

However, Meng Yao wanted to test it out, "Master Jiang, I'm afraid you don't know that the reason I left the Nie family was because I plotted to kill a great leader of the Nie family..."

Jiang Cheng hesitated for a moment, and asked Meng Yao, "Is there any inside story?"

Meng Yao sneered to herself, what inside story could there be?

It was simply because the commander-in-chief was deeply trusted by Nie Mingjue, and he secretly bullied the weak and even killed innocent people to gain credit. Of course, the most important thing was that he was outspoken and mocked and cursed him whenever they met, which made him unable to bear it any longer.

When facing Jiang Cheng, Meng Yao's attitude was even more sharp: "What else could there be? It's just that I can't stand his sharp mouth, and he always talks about the son of a prostitute!"

It seems that Meng Yao really cares about her background, but Jiang Cheng doesn't mind.

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Mr. Meng is indeed the son of a prostitute, and also the son of Jin Guangshan. Perhaps it is because I have never had such troubles, so today I can still say in front of you, Mr. Meng, that birth is not important."

These words were really sharp and unpleasant to hear, but Meng Yao could see that Jiang Cheng's actions were consistent with his words. He really didn't care about his background and even admitted that he had some shortcomings. This made him have an idea and he immediately agreed to become a guest official to help Jiang's manage internal affairs.

Meng Yao doesn't think he is a good person, but he has no way of rejecting someone like Jiang Cheng who represents light and is willing to bring him into the sunshine.

After finding a butler, Jiang Cheng assigned almost all the matters he needed to handle to Meng Yao. "These things need to be dealt with as soon as possible. I haven't seen Wei Ying for more than half a year. It's obvious that he's avoiding me. I need to check on him."

"However, you don't have to work hard for long. My sister will be back tomorrow at the latest. She will help you share some of the burden then."

"Oh, this is my Jiang family's token. You can use it by injecting spiritual power. In addition to indicating your identity, it can also transmit messages. You can explore it yourself first. I'll go ahead."

Meng Yao didn't expect that Jiang Cheng would throw all the matters to him just after he nodded. Even though he had worked under Jiang Cheng for more than half a year and thought he knew the young master well, he didn't expect that the other party would be so straightforward.
