Nanshan True Man was actually a monster who had cultivated into a demon!
Not only had he cultivated into a demon, he had even infiltrated Li Rubi's army, acquired the title of True Man, and stolen its fortune!
In the blink of an eye, Wu Ming recalled what he had heard about this True Man's origins.
The Li family, to which Li Rubi belonged, had once been the County Magnate of Nine Mountains Commandery. They were immensely wealthy, with servants as numerous as clouds, and Li Rubi himself was a Juren with an excellent reputation.
Back then, Hu True Man had called himself Nanshan Weng. When he arrived in Nine Mountains Commandery, he told fortunes and read people's futures, and his predictions never missed. His reputation soared, and Li Rubi summoned him to read his face.
Unexpectedly, the moment Nanshan Weng saw Li Rubi, he was so astonished that he bowed and said, "This is the true ruler of all under heaven!"
Li Rubi was immediately moved. After conspiring with him for a long time, he finally resolved to raise an army.
At first, although the Li family had ample wealth, they lacked armor and bows. Nanshan Weng was skilled in the Five Ghosts Transport Method, and used it to bring them more than a hundred sets of armor, several hundred bows, and countless riches in gold and silver, greatly inflaming Li Rubi's ambition.
Later, he urged Li Rubi to seize warhorses and establish the Black Mountain Cavalry. This became the foundation of his rise.
When the time came to launch the rebellion, Li Rubi recalled his family's teachings and hesitated. He said to Nanshan Weng, "Although my ancestors once marked an Earth Vein, securing its protection and thirteen generations of wealth, that fortune is meant for a quiet rise.
