"Full moon night? Top of the Forbidden City?"
An interesting expression appeared on Xu Yi's face.
This peak showdown that originally belonged to Ximen Chuixue was actually replaced by him?
But soon, Xu Yi knew that this duel was not replacing Ximen Chuixue with him, but adding him!
In addition to him, Ye Gucheng also invited Ximen Chuixue!
He's going to have a three-way war!
"Husband, what should we do?"
Lou Shuwan said with a melancholy look.
Unlike Ximen Chuixue who is reaching his peak, Ye Gucheng is at his peak! And it has been at its peak for more than ten years!
Although there are older kendo masters like Mu Daoren and Dugu Yihe in the world who can stand alongside Ye Gucheng, this is just the respect people in the world have for them and the Wudang and Emei factions behind them.
In fact, in the eyes of the entire world, Ye Gucheng is already the well-deserved number one in swordsmanship.
Perhaps in terms of martial arts level, Mu Dao and Dugu Yihe are not necessarily worse than Ye Gucheng, but if they are over seventy years old, if they really want to fight, they will definitely not be Ye Gucheng's opponent in his prime.
Ye Gucheng can be said to be the number one person in swordsmanship by default in the world today. In the eyes of many people, he is even the number one person in martial arts!
Although Lou Shuwan was very confident in Xu Yi, she couldn't help but panic when she saw that Xu Yi's opponent was the number one martial artist today.
Xu Yi hugged her into his arms and comforted her.
"Don't worry, Ye Gucheng may be really strong, but after two months of duel, I will definitely be the one to win!"
A strong self-confidence burst out from him.
If it were a duel now, Xu Yi would naturally not have that confidence.
Ye Gucheng has definitely broken through to the level of acuity training, and has even come a long way at the level of acuity training.
Coupled with the extremely lethal Tianwai Feixian, his combat power can be said to be one of the best in the entire world.
Although Xu Yi's own strength has been greatly enhanced due to the surge in soul energy, he has not broken through to the level of training, and all martial arts are still at the innate level.
His overall strength may be comparable to that of ordinary martial arts practitioners, but if he were to face Ye Gucheng, who was considered a strong one even among martial arts practitioners, there was a high probability that he would not be able to compete.
Unless, like the original work, Ye Gucheng's rebellion failed, his state of mind was greatly affected, and he was unable to exert even 50% of his strength, Xu Yi would have almost no chance of winning.
but······
This is all based on the present!
Two months later?
No.
To be precise, it should be two and a half months later!
The result would be completely different.
"Husband..."
Lou Shuwan looked at the confident Xu Yi with brilliant eyes.
What intoxicated her the most, wasn't Xu Yi in this state?
"love me."
······
Wanmei Villa.
"What's the matter?"
Ximen Chuixue came out of the retreat with an indifferent expression.
He had just prepared to go into seclusion and explained that he was not allowed to disturb him, but now that he was disturbed, he was naturally in a bad mood.
"The owner of the village makes atonement!"
The servant also knew that his behavior was not good and said quickly.
"My slave also knows that I shouldn't disturb the owner of the village. It's just that something serious has happened and I have to do this."
"What's the big deal?"
"Master, please take a look."
The servant handed a pure gold invitation to Ximen Chuixue.
Ximen Chuixue took it and took a look.
September 15th, the night of the full moon.
At the top of the Forbidden City, the winner is decided.
"This is the invitation from the Lord of Baiyun City. In addition to the village owner, he also invited Xu Yi, the Great Sun Sword Master!" A servant added beside him.
"On a full moon night, the top of the Forbidden City."
Ximen Chuixue murmured, without saying a word, his eyes became brighter.
"Ye Gucheng!"
"Xu Yi!"
OK OK! ! !
"Go down! I want to go into seclusion! No one is allowed to disturb me before September 15th!"
"Yes! Owner!"
······
at the same time.
This news gradually became known to people from all major forces in the world.
Hulong Villa.
"On a full moon night, the top of the Forbidden City?"
Iron-gallant God Marquis Zhu Wulan’s eyes flashed.
As the mastermind behind the scenes, he almost subconsciously sensed that there was something wrong here! There's a big problem!
A duel between top players is nothing.
Although the number of top masters in the world is limited, there will still be such a battle every once in a while.
For example, twenty years ago, the battle between him and the undefeated naughty boy Gu Santong became famous and completely established his reputation in the world.
Even if it weren't for his special status as a royal family, the majority of people in the world would probably elect him as the best master in the world.
Even though Ye Gucheng's three-party battle was a little special, it wasn't anything special.
The only problem is the location of the battle.
The top of the Forbidden City!
What is that place?
That's the Imperial Palace!
It was the face of the Ming Dynasty to the outside world!
"What exactly does Ye Gucheng want to do? Why would he place the decisive battle in this place? Just because of his dignity?"
Zhu Wuwu thought it was impossible. He smelled a conspiracy in it.
If Ximen Chuixue chose this place, he might just think that this place is worthy of their duel, but Ye Gucheng... he is not such a pure person!
At least when Zhu Wuwu came into contact with the other party, he was keenly aware that Ye Gucheng was not that simple.
Besides the way of swordsmanship, there was something deeper hidden in his heart.
"The Forbidden City, the Imperial Palace... Is that his target?!"
Zhu Wulan's eyes flickered, vaguely aware of Ye Gucheng's true purpose.
Just is this possible?
Ye Gucheng is indeed the most powerful swordsman in the world. With his "Flying Immortal from Beyond the Sky" move, even Zhu Wuliu himself is not sure of the next move.
But with such strength, there is no way to overthrow the Ming Dynasty, which is now at its peak.
It is even said that if Ye Gucheng really had such thoughts, facing the current Ming Dynasty, he would only be defeated.
"Ye Gucheng is definitely not such an ignorant person!"
Zhu ignored this most unlikely point.
Then there are only two possibilities left.
Either he guessed wrong, Ye Gucheng really just thought this place was more suitable for their decisive battle.
Either...
"He still has his own trump card!"
"A trump card that can turn the tide!"
Zhu Wuwu tapped the armrest lightly, the light in his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
All I can say is that he is worthy of being a person who almost sat on the supreme position. Zhu Wuli’s wisdom and strategy are so great!
Just by relying on these short sixteen words and the few in-depth meetings between him and Ye Gucheng, he could figure out the behind-the-scenes of the entire incident.
If he was given more information, it might be impossible to deduce all of Ye Gucheng's plans.
After realizing Ye Gucheng's possible purpose, Zhu Wuli's attention to this decisive battle instantly soared to the extreme.
"What exactly is Ye Gucheng's trump card?"
"Why does he think this trump card can help him turn things around?"
besides.
"Can I use this trump card?!"
Obviously, the last issue was the most important thing for Zhu Wuli.
Ye Gucheng is by no means an unintelligent person. Even in his brief contact with him, he found that the other party's wisdom was not much worse than his.
Even he thinks that the trump card that can turn the tide and decide the victory is definitely very likely to determine the final result!
"If this trump card can be used to my advantage, maybe I can..."
Zhu Wuyi's eyes flickered, and he had already made a vague decision.
"Somebody come!"
In the empty hall.
A man in black appeared quietly.
He didn't speak, just stood in the hall with a bow, quietly waiting for orders.
This is the shadow guard. Zhu Wuli has the deepest power hidden in his hand. Even Shangguan Haitang doesn't know that this power exists.
"Starting today, we will conduct a comprehensive investigation into Ye Gucheng! I want to know all the information about Ye Gucheng within half a month!"
After a pause, Zhu Wuwen continued to ask.
"What's going on over there at Haitang? Have you had any contact with Xu Yi?"
"No, Xu Yi's whereabouts have been erratic during this period, and he has been running back and forth in various places. Lord Shangguan always almost sees each other. But now Xu Yi seems to have temporarily stopped in Lin'an City. If nothing happens, the two of them should Contact will be made within two days!”
"Within two days? Tell her to find a way to follow Xu Yi and not leave even half a step before September 15th! At the same time, ask her to investigate all the news about Xu Yi as much as possible, and inform me of any information as soon as possible. ! And let some people keep an eye on Ximen Chuixue! If you have any news, please inform me at any time!"
"yes!"
"Get down!"
Zhu Wuwu waved his hand, and the man in black disappeared out of thin air.
Although he felt that Ye Gucheng had a big problem, he would not pay all his attention to Ye Gucheng.
"There are not many forces that can play a decisive role. In addition to Ye Gucheng himself, the other two opponents in the decisive battle may also have problems!"
Among them, Xu Yi, whose origin is unknown, is obviously the biggest problem!
Although Xu Yi was Ye Gucheng's target for a decisive battle, Zhu Wuwu, who was suspicious of everything, couldn't help but wonder, could this be a scene they directed and acted themselves?
Not only Ye Gucheng and Xu Yi, but also Ximen Chuixue, who is said to be only interested in the sword in his hand, may be involved.
Zhu Wuwang looked in the direction of the palace with cold eyes.
"No matter who wants to do something, I have to help. What do you think, my good nephew?"
······
Liuwu Shenhou Mansion.
"It's going to change."
Zhuge Zhengwo looked at the dark clouds in the sky and sighed deeply.
Black clouds are threatening to destroy the city.
When the storm was about to come, a strong pressure was already rushing towards me, which even made Zhuge Zheng and I couldn't help but feel a little unbearable.
"Father, this time Ye Gucheng chose the place for the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City. He is completely provoking the dignity of the imperial court! Won't the imperial court intervene?"
Sheng Yayu, who had a beautiful and charming appearance, like a fairy, sat on a specific chair and said with a frown.
"Intervene?"
Zhuge Zhengwo shook his head slightly.
"If it were other people, maybe it could be done, but the three of them... it would be difficult!"
Sword Immortal Ye Gucheng.
Sword God Ximen Chuixue.
Sun Sword Master Xu Yi.
These three people are all top masters in the world, and that's all.
The most important thing is that all three of them are top experts who have almost no worries!
Needless to say, Xu Yi's origins are extremely mysterious. No one has discovered where he came from so far. Even a few confidants don't seem to care much about it.
Ximen Chuixue's origins are quite clear. The owner of Wanmei Villa, one of the four major villas in the world, has clear power.
But unfortunately, Ximen Chuixue practices ruthless swordsmanship. He is loyal to the sword all his life and has nothing else but the sword. There is no way he will be bound by Wanmei Villa.
Ye Gucheng is similar. Although he has the title of Baiyun City Lord above his head, everyone in the world knows that he has no intention of managing. The most common thing he does is practice swordsmanship.
For other top masters, such as Mu Daoren, Dugu Yihe and others, the court can also force them to give in by coercing the sect behind them, but for these three top masters, they really have no choice!
Directly confront him?
Can.
How many top players are you prepared to pay? Or tens of thousands of elite soldiers?
The Ming Dynasty was indeed in its prosperous period, and they did have the ability to stop or even surround Xu Yi and the three of them, but once they did so, it would basically mean that they would reveal most of the dynasty's heritage.
If you are not careful, even the Ming Dynasty may be overthrown!
This is not sensational. Today's Ming Dynasty seems to be very stable on the surface, but there are foreign races outside who are eyeing it, and there are many forces surging and plotting evil inside.
Once the Ming Dynasty suffers too much loss, a disaster will definitely happen in an instant.
Intervention?
It's not that Zhuge Zhengwo has the ambition of others and destroys his own prestige, but he really doesn't think that the current court has such courage and courage.
Even when the emperor was so angry that he threw things in the palace and roared, "The warrior bullies me!" ’, it was also difficult to make the decision to surround and kill Xu Yi and others.
At least he didn't dare to do this before the decisive battle began.
"Ring Qing, how is the investigation of the counterfeit currency case going?"
Zhuge Zheng and I decisively changed the topic. If this topic continues, it will involve the dignity of the Tian family.
As a famous loyal minister of the Ming Dynasty, he did not want to say those disrespectful words.
"We already have some clues. Following the counterfeit money flowing out, we have found the source of the counterfeit money. However, we later discovered that the other party seemed to be just a pawn and not the real leader."
Sheng Yayu said.
"These people are hiding deep enough!"
Zhuge Zhengwu touched his mustache and said.
"Keep an eye on him first! Even if he is just a pawn, he still has to be in contact with the carriages, horses and artillery behind him. As long as we keep an eye on him, we will always find more clues."
"I understand, foster father."
Sheng Yayu nodded and did not continue speaking.
Zhuge Zhenggao glanced at each other and shook his head secretly.
Still so boring!
······
The news of the peak showdown was only circulated among the major forces at first, but with the help of caring people, it didn't take long for the news to spread to the world.
The world was shocked!
