That night.
Manna Hall.
In front of Emperor Yongyuan stood Manager Shang and Zhao Feng side by side.
"Your Majesty, this is what Mr. Ye asked the slave to convey."
There were only three of them in the entire Manna Hall.
Emperor Yongyuan retreated early, and then summoned General Shang and Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng reported today's events one by one, including Mr. Ye's knowledge and opinions.
"The orcs have mastered our human skills."
"And the foundation is extremely solid?"
Emperor Yongyuan gently stroked his dark and bushy eyebrows with his index and middle fingers. Although he looked like he had a headache, there was a ridiculous smile on his lips.
Who wouldn’t find it strange to hear this kind of thing?
Even though they had expected Li Xuan's intelligence, they still found it difficult to believe it.
If it had not been stated by Mr. Ye himself and then conveyed by Zhao Feng, Emperor Yongyuan would have had to send someone to confirm it again and again before speaking.
But now...
Emperor Yongyuan was already thinking about what this matter could bring to Daxing.
"It has never been heard of since ancient times."
Emperor Yongyuan shook his head slightly and muttered.
At this time, Manager Shang said: "Your Majesty, it is indeed true."
Then Mr. Shang changed his tone, from gentle to powerful: "But the auspiciousness coming from heaven may be God blessing His Majesty's great cause."
Manager Shang is giving Emperor Yongyuan more confidence.
Zhao Feng also followed suit.
Emperor Yongyuan pondered for a while, then slowly said: "If you can cultivate him with peace of mind, he will naturally be a big help to me Daxing."
No matter what level Li Xuan's strength can reach, it is meaningful enough to have such an auspicious birth in Daxing.
"By the way, how old is Ankang this year?"
Emperor Yongyuan suddenly began to ask Princess Ankang's age.
Manager Shang stepped forward and replied: "Your Highness is in his golden age."
"Twelve years old?"
"That means it's only six years at most."
Emperor Yongyuan frowned and muttered to himself.
Then he grinned:
"It just so happens that I don't have much time left."
As soon as these words came out, Manager Shang and Zhao Feng knelt down together, but said nothing, seeming to acquiesce to Emperor Yongyuan's statement.
But they also showed through their actions their determination to advance and retreat together with Emperor Yongyuan.
"Do you think that if Ankang is no longer here, will Ah Xuan still stay in Daxing?"
Emperor Yongyuan asked a dangerous question.
Manager Shang knelt on the ground and replied without emotion: "If His Highness Ankang is not here, although he is still bound by the palace maid Yu'er, judging from the current situation, Ah Xuan's relationship with Daxing will undoubtedly be distanced."
"If not handled properly, His Highness Ankang's death will even make Ah Xuan hate Daxing."
"After all, His Highness Ankang's situation has not been good in the past few years, which is enough to give Ah Xuan a reason to express his anger."
After listening to Manager Shang's words, Emperor Yongyuan just said "ha", which was regarded as acquiescing to this statement.
"Is there any way to help Ah Xuan improve his cultivation faster?"
Emperor Yongyuan continued to ask questions.
This question made Manager Shang and Zhao Feng look at each other.
Then at the signal of Manager Shang, Zhao Feng answered.
"Your Majesty, Ah Xuan is doing his best to improve his cultivation."
"Learning skills, searching for heavenly and earthly treasures, and sparring with old slaves, he is trying every possible way to improve his strength."
Then Zhao Feng told Li Xuan's transaction without any concealment, and described in detail the improvement brought to Li Xuan by the heavenly materials and earthly treasures he provided.
He even made his own inferences about the difference in efficacy between the ice crystal frozen blood snake gallbladder and the wind chasing rabbit.
During this process, Zhao Feng mentioned one by one his methods of dealing with other eunuchs and the betrayal of his adopted son Zhao Bugao.
Finally, a guess is given on how Li Xuan learned to kill the bloody tiger claws and obtain the breath of ice.
"In other words, Ah Xuan learned the technique through Yu'er's biological brother, Xiao Dengzi Deng Wei."
Emperor Yongyuan said and looked at the two of them with a half-smile.
"I'll just trust you for once."
Manager Shang and Zhao Feng could only smile bitterly.
Because the ten tiger-shaped postures and the blood-slaying tiger claws are the fastest ways to advance to the ninth level, which are unique skills of their lineage.
Among the many great eunuchs in the palace, only Chief Shang and Zhao Feng are the ones who know how to practice.
Naturally, the royal family also has this set of techniques, but the process of absorbing Linhu's essence and blood is too painful, and it is just to advance to the ninth level as soon as possible. There is no need to endure this hardship.
Zhao Feng explained in such detail before just to make this matter clear.
Otherwise, if Emperor Yongyuan misunderstood that they were secretly teaching Li Xuan martial arts in order to get closer to each other in advance, it would be a huge misunderstanding.
Although Emperor Yongyuan was joking before, in this matter, they could not easily get rid of the suspicion. In the future, they could only be more careful as much as possible to avoid being misunderstood further.
"Zhao Feng, I didn't expect you to be very busy recently."
Emperor Yongyuan saw that the two of them were silent, so he changed the subject and joked.
"It made His Majesty laugh."
Zhao Feng could only laugh along.
He originally wanted to wait until he had dealt with all the other eunuchs before telling him about it, but because Li Xuan showed off his martial arts skills today, he had to explain the whole story in advance.
"Forget it, I'm not interested in your adopted son's affairs."
"As long as I can maintain the stability of the palace, I don't care who your adopted son is."
Zhao Feng immediately felt shocked.
The implication of Emperor Yongyuan's words was that he should quickly find a suitable successor, and not let people in his lineage take advantage of Zhao Bugao's fall and cause chaos in the palace.
The struggle between eunuchs is not weaker than that of concubines and ladies, and is even worse.
Emperor Yongyuan was not in the mood to watch a show and asked Zhao Feng to resolve the matter as soon as possible.
"I understand, Your Majesty, don't worry."
"The Ministry of Internal Affairs will definitely fulfill its responsibilities."
Zhao Feng reassured Emperor Yongyuan with the guarantee.
Emperor Yongyuan waved his hand: "Okay, let's talk about Deng Weixian."
"What is his relationship with Ah Xuan?"
This matter was caused by Zhao Bugao. As the godfather, Zhao Feng naturally had to answer the question personally.
And he also asked Zhao Bugao about the specific matter.
Zhao Bugao now completely admits defeat and does not make any concealment.
"Deng Weixian didn't know about A Xuan's existence."
"Axuan is just because he is Yu'er's biological brother, so he takes care of her in secret. It may also be because he learned martial arts from him."
"It's just Deng Weixian's life experience..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Feng couldn't help but look embarrassed.
"Um?"
Emperor Yongyuan used his nose to question in displeasure, and then said in a cold voice:
"explain!"
Zhao Feng then bowed his head and continued in fear: "Your Majesty, I will forgive you. I will tell you now."
"Deng Weixian is from Pingshan Village, Guanglin Prefecture, Jiangnan Province. He was born in the capital of Guizhou. He was originally ordinary..."
As Zhao Feng was talking, Emperor Yongyuan suddenly interrupted him and asked unexpectedly: "Guanglin Mansion in Jiangnan Province?"
"That's right, Your Majesty."
Zhao Feng's face was full of bitterness, and he continued: "Deng Weixian's home was hit by a plague of man-eating locusts."
"By chance, he witnessed his parents being tortured to death, and he also witnessed the entire process of giving birth to man-eating locusts."
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Yongyuan suddenly stood up.
"He is the only witness you brought back!"
Zhao Feng nodded.
"That's right, Your Majesty."
"This matter was handled by Zhao Bugao, the adopted son of Lao Nu, who rescued Deng Weixian. Because Deng Weixian had a special experience, he was specially brought into the palace unlike other survivors."
Speaking of this, Zhao Feng didn't say much.
Emperor Yongyuan investigated this matter for a long time, but in the end he had no choice but to let it go. This was a knot in Emperor Yongyuan's mind.
"Okay, okay, okay..."
Every time Emperor Yongyuan said something good, he rapped the table with his knuckles, making a "dong-dong-dong" sound.
He took a deep breath, calmed down, and sat down again.
"Thank you so much, my good uncle..."
Emperor Yongyuan's tone was solemn and his expression was cold.
He felt that all this was destined.
Manager Shang and Zhao Feng immediately withdrew their gazes and stared at the ground, pretending not to hear these words.
"Zhao Feng."
Emperor Yongyuan suddenly shouted.
"The old slave is here."
Zhao Feng responded.
"Since your godson is disobedient, why not try to train this godson."
Zhao Feng frowned slightly and looked at Manager Shang quietly.
Manager Shang nodded lightly to Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng no longer hesitated and answered directly:
"Old slave obeys the order!"
…
same moment.
Li Xuan didn't know that his fate and that of Deng Weixian were even closer.
He is currently practicing new techniques and working hard towards the realm of marrow training.
Although he had recorded many suitable exercises today, after a day of picking and choosing, he finally selected the one he wanted to practice most.
[Dragon Tiger Wind Roar: 0%]
This is a technique carefully selected by Li Xuan.
The exercises in the marrow realm use special methods to activate the power of qi and blood to strengthen the bone marrow and internal organs.
According to Zatan's experience, after mastering the Marrow Realm, you will have a strong recovery ability, and injuries that are fatal to ordinary people can be slowly recovered.
Of course, this recovery ability is far from being so strong that it can be immortal and regenerate a severed limb.
This is what you think about at the seventh level. From now on, when you reach the first level, you won't be as exaggerated as playing marbles with stars.
The recovery ability of the seventh grade is only to speed up the recovery of injuries. The recovery speed of fractures and fractures is far faster than that of ordinary people. Ordinary sword wounds, even if the bones are deep enough, can take enough time to heal on their own, instead of bleeding to death.
Compared to the ninth and eighth grades which strengthen the body, it sounds very ordinary.
But every book that Li Xuan read today mentioned that the strengthening of bone marrow and internal organs in the marrow training realm will determine whether there is a possibility of breaking through to the third level in the future.
As long as there are hidden wounds in the body that cannot be healed, the possibility of breaking through to the third level will be infinitely reduced, or even impossible.
This reminded Li Xuan of the conversation between Zhao Feng and Zhao Bugao that day.
According to what they said, it was probably because of this situation that the two people had limited their upper limit of cultivation in this life.
As a result, Li Xuan had to take his breakthrough in the marrow training realm seriously.
He watched the Marrow Realm exercises all day today and found that most of them relied on sound to activate the power of qi and blood and strengthen the bone marrow and internal organs.
Of course, there are other methods, but they are far less simple and effective than using sound.
Moreover, there is another reason why Li Xuan chose Dragon Tiger and Wind Roar.
This skill also has supporting follow-up skills, which can be continued after breaking through the marrow training realm.
Li Xuan had seen the power of the matching skills, so he naturally didn't want to miss it.
He came to the courtyard of Jingyang Palace and slowly arched his back into an exaggerated arc.
While closing his eyes tightly, he continued to adjust the power of Qi and blood in his body, and began to slowly activate it in his body.
After holding it in for a long time, Li Xuan suddenly opened his eyes, opened his mouth wide, and roared:
"Meow-"
Although the voice was still a bit sharp, it had gained a bit of momentum.
And with this milky roar, the power of qi and blood in Li Xuan's body vibrated with the sound waves, causing his bone marrow and internal organs to tremble slightly.
Li Xuan couldn't help but shiver from head to tail.
"Hey, it seems pretty cool!"
