Although Sheng Moming was only Sheng Lingren's adopted son, his martial arts skills were far inferior to those of his father, and his status was slightly lower than that of his eldest brother. However, he plays a very important role in the temple.
After all, Sheng Zhiqiang is Sheng Lingren's biological son, and he is also Sheng Moming's eldest brother. His status is slightly higher than Sheng Moming's, but it is quite normal. But in terms of ability, Sheng Zhiqiang is far inferior to Sheng Mo Ming Wan Yi. Sheng Ling and Sheng Zhiqiang have a common weakness, that is, they are very greedy for women.
It's just that Sheng Ling is older after all, or he knows how to stop things in moderation, but Sheng Zhiqiang is too young, and he doesn't know how to restrain himself, so he is naturally prone to letting loose, and often misses important events because of it.
The last official bank case was supposed to be handled by Sheng Zhiqiang himself. However, Xue Qianhe happened to have two beautiful twin sisters by his side. He was unwilling to get out of bed all day, so he didn't pay close attention to the matter, and finally exposed his many flaws.
Under this situation, the conflict between the temple and the court has been secretly aroused, and sooner or later there will be a fierce fight. It's just that now they are restraining each other, and no one is sure of victory, so no one dares to take action first.
The Emperor and Prince Xiao had just gained power, but Sheng Lingren used a beauty trick to confuse the Emperor first, which made Prince Xiao suddenly appear more passive.
Sheng Lingren was ambitious. At this time, he not only wanted to dominate the world, but also dreamed of becoming an emperor.
Because Sheng Moming had the best relationship with King Xiao, Sheng Lingren sent Sheng Moming to test King Xiao. Sheng Lingren guessed that at this time, King Xiao had probably realized that the beauty Li Ying was the trump card he had arranged for the emperor. But he wasn't sure yet, so he asked Sheng Moming to come and find out.
Sheng Moming was not only Sheng Lingren's adopted son, he could also be said to be his only strategist and most capable assistant. Although Sheng Zhiqiang was his biological son, he actually trusted his adopted son more.
He is calm, resourceful and decisive, and is bold and fearless in his actions, which is very similar to Sheng Lingren's character. Moreover, he is not good at womanizing, which is another great advantage compared to his father and eldest brother.
It's just that Sheng Momei came by chance today and caught up with King Xiao and many heroes having a drink, so what he originally wanted to say was not uttered.
However, for a smart person like Sheng Moming, a lot of hidden information does not need to be told to others at all. As long as he takes a brief glance, he can already understand the secret. Although he didn't really say a serious word to Prince Xiao, they were all polite words at the wine table, but he didn't gain anything at all.
Most importantly, he found a person, a person who should not be here - Tang Sitian, the second hero of the Tang Sect.
Sheng Moming had already known that people from Tang Clan and Xiaoyao Clan were still living in Zhuozhou. But now, Tang Sitian suddenly appeared in Prince Xiao's mansion, which was obviously not good news for their temple.
Everyone in the world knows that the four major families have always been at odds with each other and restrained each other in order to develop their own power. The biggest conflict among the four major families today is between the Tang Clan and the Holy Temple. Tang Sitian's appearance in Prince Xiao's Mansion at this time, does it mean that Prince Xiao will join forces with the Tang Sect to jointly deal with their temple?
If this is the case, I'm afraid they will be in big trouble. King Xiao had military power, and the Tang Sect had many experts. The two powerful families joined forces to completely suppress all the advantages of their temple.
Although Sheng Moming didn't say much to Prince Xiao, he still discovered such important information. He was rushing back to the temple to tell his father about this. Suddenly, there was a faint sound of footsteps behind him, as if someone was following him.
Sheng Moming was very alert, and he soon discovered that there was more than one person following him behind him, but two to three first-class masters, none of whom were inferior to him in skill.
In this capital city, those who dare to follow him are naturally people with some background. After all, strong dragons cannot overwhelm local cowards, and their temple is the local coven in the capital. If other Jianghu sects want to fight with them in the capital, I am afraid no one will have the upper hand.
Sheng inexplicably pretended not to know, and only quickened his pace, but suddenly changed his route home, and instead of taking the main road, he only went into the alleys in the city.
The two people behind him still didn't give up and followed him closely. Sheng suddenly smiled contemptuously inexplicably, and in a sudden flash of night, the figure disappeared immediately.
The footsteps approached again, and became more and more urgent, but only one person followed, and they happened to come to the place where Sheng disappeared inexplicably. Sheng inexplicably hid in the dark and took a look, only to see the man covered in black gauze, making it impossible to tell who he was.
Seeing his sudden disappearance, the masked man was obviously a little anxious. He only looked around, but still found nothing. What made Sheng even more surprised was that he clearly heard that there were at least two people following him behind him, but only one came out, which showed how calm the other person was and therefore more difficult to deal with. Or perhaps, these people had just agreed upon it, and only one person showed up, while the others were still hiding in the dark, just in case something unexpected happened.
"Strike first will gain you strength, and those who strike later will suffer disaster." Sheng inexplicably can't control that much anymore. If the two of them discover him and besiege him together, they will be even more passive. It is better to sneak attack one now, and then go one-on-one, the chance of winning will definitely be much greater.
Sheng Moming was a meticulous person who dared to do anything. He was sure that these two people would never be his friends, so he planned to take advantage of them first.
His figure flashed, and suddenly a holy fist was struck, hitting the man in the back.
The man reacted very quickly, and his skills were not weak. He turned around suddenly and hurriedly slapped a palm, just in time to block Sheng's inexplicable punch. Sheng inexplicably struck first. Although the enemy was not seriously injured, the force of his fist was enough to knock the man away. He hit a wall in the alley with a "bang", but a big hole was made in the wall.
Sheng Moming originally thought that the man was not dead but had been seriously injured, but unexpectedly the man immediately crawled out of the collapsed bricks and coughed twice, but he seemed to be fine. At least from the look on his face, even if he suffered internal injuries, they shouldn't be serious.
"This man is so powerful! He took a punch from me in a hurry and was able to stand up. It's really extraordinary!" Sheng thought of this inexplicably, but he didn't intend to stop there. The Holy Fist struck out again, with both fists. came out and attacked the man again.
The man received a punch from Sheng inexplicably, and his true energy was indeed sluggish, probably because his valve was damaged by the shock. Therefore, he did not dare to receive Sheng's inexplicably powerful holy fist. He only retreated while fighting, and used Shaolin's Luohan boxing technique. , and counterattack from time to time. Sheng inexplicably knew that the man used the ordinary Shaolin Luohan Fist. Naturally, he wanted to hide his martial arts skills and did not want him to see the details.
However, Sheng Moming also knew that if he went all out, even if that person used his true skills, he might not be able to defeat him. Not to mention that now that he is injured, it is impossible to hide his martial arts skills.
When Sheng thought of this inexplicably, his fist power suddenly became more powerful, and he punched several times in succession, and immediately punched two big holes in the walls on both sides of the alley.
The man couldn't resist Sheng's inexplicable holy fist, so he had to retreat one after another. Suddenly, he found that there were many bamboo poles of different lengths placed on the corner next to him, so he threw a short bamboo pole first, and then threw it towards him with strong force. Sheng came inexplicably.
Sheng sneered inexplicably and stretched out his hand to grab the bamboo pole. But just as he caught the bamboo pole, he heard a sound of wind, and another very long bamboo pole came towards him.
Sheng reacted inexplicably very quickly, and only used the short bamboo pole he had just caught to block it. Hearing a "click" sound, his bamboo pole was instantly interrupted. It turned out that when the other party made the move, he had already poured his true power into his bamboo pole. She blocked it casually, but she hit the opponent's target, and the bamboo pole in her hand was chopped off. Sheng screamed inexplicably, so he just turned sideways to avoid hitting his head with the bamboo pole. However, although he avoided the bamboo pole with his head, it was too late and he still took a hit on his right shoulder, and he was immediately knocked to the ground.
Sheng inexplicably endured the pain and got up, but when he was about to make another move, he suddenly heard a voice calling him: "Second Young Master, wait, someone wants to see you."
The person speaking was the masked man who injured him just now, and his voice sounded somewhat familiar.
"who?"
"It's me." At this time, a person suddenly walked out of the alley and said, it was actually Prince Xiao, and there was another person beside him, but it was Failure Zhonghuan, and the masked man just now also immediately revealed his true face, it was the success and failure duo Another one is Shiyou.
"Your Majesty, why are you here?" Sheng asked inexplicably in horror.
"It was inconvenient to speak just now, so I deliberately pretended to be drunk and wanted to come out to talk to you, but I didn't want to cause you to misunderstand." Prince Xiao said a little embarrassed.
"Does the prince have something to ask me for?" Sheng said inexplicably but was very careful.
"Haha! You came here at night, didn't you want to see me for something?" Prince Xiao asked in a somewhat thoughtful tone.
"Oh! I actually have nothing to do. I just happened to be passing by and came to visit the prince." Sheng said inexplicably but still perfunctorily.
"Oh! Really? There are many martial arts people in the city these days. Why don't you see anyone suspicious?" Prince Xiao's tone became increasingly weird.
"Well! What is the prince referring to?" Sheng asked inexplicably, confused.
"For example...barbarians." Prince Xiao hesitated for a while before finally saying the last two sentences.
Sheng inexplicably heard the word "Hu people", but he seemed extremely calm and said: "How can there be Hu people in this important place in the capital? Isn't the prince joking?"
"You really haven't seen it?"
"Of course not." Sheng replied calmly and inexplicably.
"Okay! It's okay. You can go back first! Be careful on the road." Prince Xiao suddenly changed his words, as if he had said nothing just now.
"Haha! Then Prince, I'm going to take my leave first." Sheng said inexplicably, then turned around and walked away slowly.
After Sheng inexplicably walked away, Cheng Shiyou asked: "Your Majesty, when you asked him like this just now, didn't you tell Sheng Ling that we already suspected him of colluding with the barbarians?"
"I just want him to know. I'm just afraid that he doesn't know. I'm already doubting him." Prince Xiao suddenly said in a very decisive tone.
"What does the prince mean by this?" Bai Zhonghuan asked.
"If they don't act, how will they reveal their flaws, and how will I take him?" Prince Xiao's tone became even colder, even with a hint of murderous intent.
