A typical Grand Unity Golden Immortal wouldn't last ten rounds in Nezha's hands.

Otherwise, why would he be known as the Heavenly Court's second God of War?

"Universe Ring, Golden Brick, go!"

Having experienced the Battle of the Gods, Nezha was not entirely ignorant of formations.

There were two ways to break a formation.

The first was to use the method of countering life and death, by finding the person who set up the formation or the formation's core.

The second was to break the formation with force, using powerful cultivation to forcibly break it.

The former took a considerable amount of time and required extensive knowledge of formations.

The latter required a cultivation level far exceeding that of the formation setter, or a powerful spiritual treasure capable of breaking formations.

Coincidentally, Nezha possessed such a spiritual treasure.

The Universe Ring was supremely rigid and yang, while the spiritual treasure Golden Brick suppressed the void, slowing down the formation's operational speed.

As Nezha threw a Golden Brick from his hand, it grew against the wind, instantly increasing its size a hundredfold.

As the Golden Brick pressed down, a boundless suppressing force poured out.

The void rippled with waves.

The Universe Ring followed closely behind, transforming into a golden light and striking the area where the Golden Brick was suppressing.

RUMBLE!

The formation temporarily erected by Bai Qianli immediately shook violently from the impact of the Universe Ring.

Several Great Dao Runes shattered.

"This brat is full of fire, let me help you cool down!"

Bai Qianli clapped his hands, showing no intention of repairing the formation that was gradually disintegrating.

Nezha's speed in breaking the formation was just enough to get him to the bridal chamber in time.

"I wonder what this troublesome child will choose then?"

Bai Qianli stroked his chin, deciding to keep this spectacle.

Just as Zhao Family Village was filled with joy, His Majesty the Emperor of Great Tang was also greatly encouraged.

"Good, good, good! This Wei Zheng has finally done something that pleases me!"

Li Shimin's face showed contemplation. After thinking for a moment, he gave an order.

"Summon the Director of the Imperial Manufactories to the palace. Also, send the items that came with this memorial to the Imperial Manufactories.

Order Yuchi Jingde to deploy one thousand elite soldiers from the Right Guard to escort the Imperial Manufactories. No unauthorized personnel are allowed in or out!

Also, summon the Chief Chancellor, and the Ministers of Works, Revenue, and War to the palace!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

A eunuch bowed and stepped back three paces before turning and hurrying away.

After giving his orders, Li Shimin picked up the memorial again and read it carefully.

"Saving half the manpower means the land one person can cultivate will increase.

Chen Fan is indeed a talent, but to recruit demon cultivators with Incense and Fire!"

Li Shimin pondered for a long time before still not deciding on Chen Fan's reward.

He decided to wait until Fang Xuanling and the others arrived before discussing it further.

If it could truly lead to a great increase in grain production, such a great merit would warrant a noble title!

Since Li Shimin ascended the throne, he had begun to reduce the bestowal of noble titles.

During Li Yuan's reign, many nobles were enfeoffed, but Li Shimin had gradually begun to dismiss them.

However, with Chen Fan's contributions, it was impossible not to bestow a title.

The only question was how high the reward should be.

Moreover, if Wei Zheng's method mentioned in the memorial were to be implemented...

"Greetings, Your Majesty, my Emperor..."

"Enough, stop bowing. Xuanling, you should all first read this memorial sent by Xuancheng!"

Soon, Fang Xuanling, Zhangsun Wuji, and the others had finished reading the memorial.

Everyone fell silent.

Fang Xuanling took a deep breath, suppressing his excitement, and said cautiously, "Your Majesty, although Xuancheng does not lie, if we do not verify it, I will not feel at ease!"

As a high-ranking official in the court, even the somewhat impulsive Yuchi Jingde knew that this was no small matter.

Fang Xuanling's choice was also a way to protect Wei Zheng.

It couldn't be helped; the method Wei Zheng mentioned in his memorial was truly detestable.

Li Shimin nodded slightly. Wei Zheng was a blade he had prepared.

Even though this blade often attacked him based on the issue rather than the person, Li Shimin still couldn't bear to let this blade be so easily broken.

"Minister Fang speaks wisely. The Ministry of the Imperial Manufactories has already prepared to forge this item.

In that case, let the Ministry of Rites prepare another Ploughing Ceremony. We will bring out this item then.

Jingde, I will trouble you to take the lead this time, how about it?"

"Your subject accepts the decree!"

Yuchi Jingde bowed respectfully, indicating he had no problem.

Fang Xuanling could only respond with a wry smile.

Persuading the old scholars in the Ministry of Rites to change the rituals was no easy task.

Li Shimin arranged the matters and nodded with satisfaction, then asked again.

"This Qu Yuan Plow was created by Chen Fan, a villager from Zhao Family Village. What reward do you think is appropriate?"

"Your Majesty, does this even need to be asked? With this powerful tool, Great Tang will have enough time in at most two years.

To accumulate sufficient money and grain to support an army to attack the Eastern Turkic Khaganate.

For such a great contribution, wouldn't enfeoffing him as a Count be too little!"

Yuchi Jingde shouted directly, causing Fang Xuanling's mouth to twitch.

Chen Fan's actions were too reckless. He dared to recruit demons and privately trade Incense and Fire.

Of course, although this was not a major issue, it also showed that Chen Fan lacked sufficient reverence for the imperial court.

It would not be good for such a young and talented individual to suddenly attain a high position.

"Your Majesty, he can be enfeoffed as a County Male, but he can also be granted the position of Grand Master of the Household of the third rank, to show imperial favor!"

Li Shimin nodded upon hearing this. The position of Grand Master of the Household of the third rank was indeed high, but it was actually just an honorary title. Granting it would only mean an additional salary.

This way, it would also demonstrate his magnanimity and generosity.

"Good, this matter will be handled according to Minister Xuanling's suggestion. Draft the imperial edict!"

"Open it for me!"

The void in front of Zhao Family Village suddenly split open, and a small child with three heads and eight arms, wielding various spiritual treasures, leapt out from the rift, panting heavily. He looked at the village adorned with red silk.

"Damn it, I'll find out who you are!"

A fierce glint flashed in Nezha's eyes. He retracted his divine abilities and spiritual treasures, quietly concealing his aura.

Before leaving, he thought for a moment and tossed a stream of spiritual light into the distance.

Watching the spiritual light disappear, Nezha turned back and gritted his teeth.

"I'll see what secrets Zhao Family Village is hiding!"

Chapter Thirty-Eight: Nezha is Shocked, Mortals Hammer Gods?

"Invisibility? That won't do. It's not good to disturb the newcomer!"

With a light chuckle, Bai Qianli traced a rune with his fingertip and sent it flying.

At this moment, Nezha, who had already quietly infiltrated Zhao Family Village, found that the invisibility spell on his body was suddenly covered with a layer of dim spiritual light.
