Fang Yunyi led Mu Sheng into a huge hall, and saw that the entire building was filled with various wooden traps, as well as traps, dolls, and beasts. These dolls were engraved with magic patterns, and they looked like they were for monks. For practice.
There were dozens of monks dressed in black, practicing avoiding the attacks of the machine puppets. Some of the machine puppets actually used long-range weapons to fight back, which was eye-opening to Mu Sheng.
Fang Yunyi explained: "Mr. Jiang, this is Baishou Senluo Palace. We Baishou monks are different from monks of other sects. We often go on missions to exterminate evil sect monks and assassinate some people who are against the imperial court, so we pay great attention to actual combat. Drills and overall actual combat ability are better than ordinary monks."
Mu Sheng observed the practice methods of these monks. They will use almost any attack method to attack the enemy. Commonly known as the lower three ways, as long as they can win, they can do whatever it takes. This method is useful against middle and low-level monks, but not against masters. , the monks at the level of Four Phases Returning to the One Realm are completely useless. When they reach the master level or above, the monks' spiritual consciousness is extremely powerful, and their actions, plotting, etc. are basically useless. In the end, they still have to fight for their strength.
The two left Senluo Palace to visit other places. They laughed and laughed along the way. Fang Yunyi had more contact with this young man, and felt that the emperor was not so arrogant. He was also a person of flesh and blood. His usual iceberg expression was also Much more vivid.
The two of them walked all the way to the central area of Baishou. Fang Yunyi pointed to the tall attic in the middle and said, "Mr. Jiang, that is Wenshan Pavilion. On weekdays, the three elders will take turns to sit here and direct the operations of Baishou."
Mu Sheng said: "I see, which senior is in charge here now?"
Fang Yunyi said: "This is Xianghou, senior Xue Changqing. He became a Taoist not long ago. He was the Marquis of Wanhu who was personally granted the title of Marquis of Wanhu by the late emperor when he was still alive."
Mu Sheng said: "Oh, it turns out to be Senior Xue."
At this time, the two passed by a large school field. There were more than a dozen Baishou monks gathered around to watch the battle. There were loud shouts from the field, but it was two master-level monks competing with each other.
The two men were fighting with flying spells and swords. One of the men, Mu Sheng, had actually seen him. He was the Iron Eagle Swordsman Zhai Jiang. At that time, he was still an Anlehou in Zhixian County. , Zhai Jiang was chasing the rebel prince and rebelling against the party, and he went to his house to search for himself.
At this time, the crowd kept shouting and shouting. After the two fought for a while, Zhai Jiang took the initiative to stop and said: "Senior Brother Yi is indeed superior in strength. I will admit defeat."
The heroic man stepped forward and patted Zhai Jiang on the shoulder and said: "Junior brother Bai, you have just cultivated to the Yuanxiang realm now. I have already cultivated to the Xuanxiang realm. In the future, if you cultivate to my level, I may not be your opponent at all." , I just have a little more skill than you, so you have to work hard."
Zhai Jiang scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "Thank you, senior brother, for your approval. I will definitely practice hard in the future." The two of them laughed and chatted for half the time in the school grounds.
At this time, the senior brothers who were gradually disappearing suddenly found a man and a woman not far away who were also watching the martial arts competition between Senior Brother Bai and Senior Brother Yi.
When the brothers saw that it was their own goddess Fang Yunyi, they all stepped forward to salute her, calling her Senior Sister Fang. This was indeed the first time they saw this strange man next to Senior Sister Fang.
Only then did the man named Senior Brother Yi notice Fang Yunyi. A trace of eagerness flashed in his eyes, and he stepped forward to greet him: "Junior Sister Fang, I didn't expect that Junior Sister would be free to come here to watch the battle today, right?"
Fang Yunyi just said in a neutral tone: "Senior Brother Yi, I just happened to be passing by."
Senior Brother Yi noticed the rather imposing man next to Fang Yunyi and asked doubtfully, "Junior Sister Fang, who is this?"
Mu Sheng took the initiative to step forward and introduce himself: "Jiang Sheng, this is my first acquaintance with Master Fang. Today I was invited to meet an old friend."
Senior Brother Yi saw that his face was like a crown of jade, but he was standing next to his junior sister.
Mu Sheng cupped his hands and said, "I have admired you for a long time."
Zhai Jiang, who was standing behind Yi Feng, saw Mu Sheng's appearance, and his expression changed slightly. He had obviously guessed the identity of the other party. He had met Prince Sheng of Anlehou, and he also knew that the emperor who succeeded him now was the former emperor. He was granted the title of Marquis Anle of Zhi County, but he still didn't know why the noble man came here for a private visit incognito.
Since he didn't understand the leader's intention, Zhai Jiang had no choice but to pretend to be confused and went forward to greet him: "I'm in Zhai Jiang, I've met Mr. Jiang, and I'm also a disciple waiting for you." His tone was obviously more respectful.
Mu Sheng smiled meaningfully and said, "I have long admired you."
When Zhai Jiang saw the emperor coming, he felt uncomfortable all over and wanted to find a place to hide in. He found an excuse and left in a hurry. Only Yi Feng, Mu Sheng, and Fang Yunyi were left at the scene who didn't know the truth.
Fang Yunyi said calmly: "Senior brother, there's nothing wrong, I'll go back first."
Yi Feng said: "Junior sister, I have something to say to you."
When Mu Sheng saw this, he immediately understood the situation and said, "I'll avoid it."
Fang Yun responded: "Mr. Jiang, that's no need."
Yi Feng was immediately embarrassed and didn't know what to do for a moment. Seeing this, Mu Sheng could probably guess that there should be some different relationship between this beauty and Yi Feng.
Fang Yunyi said in a businesslike tone: "Brother, if you have anything to say, just say it. Mr. Jiang is an honored guest, there is no need to avoid him."
Seeing Junior Sister like this, Yi Feng had no choice but to say: "Junior Sister, let's talk when we have time in the future."
Fang Yunyi said calmly: "Yeah."
Yi Feng could only watch Fang Yunyi take that man to another place with some frustration. There was a fire in his heart, but he didn't know how to vent it. Maybe this was the pain of not being able to love.
On the way, Mu Sheng saw that Fang Yunyi had a different look on his face and asked, "Yunyi, what's wrong? You seem to be worried a lot?"
Fang Yunyi said: "It's nothing, I'm just feeling a little depressed."
Mu Sheng also wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to Fang Yunyi. He should always care about his subordinates, and they might get along with each other for a long time in the future. He said: "Yunyi, is the reason for your depression coming from this senior brother Yi?"
Fang Yunyi said helplessly: "Well, it's him."
Mu Sheng looked like a relationship expert and said: "As for what's going on between you two, I'll give you some advice. Maybe it can relieve your depression."
Fang Yunyi said a little embarrassedly: "Your Majesty, this is not good!"
Mu Sheng smiled slightly and said: "It's okay, just think of me as your friend. There is no superior or subordinate now. I am just Young Master Jiang. If you need anything, just follow me. Maybe I can help?"
Fang Yunyi said somewhat depressedly: "Your Majesty, Yi Feng is my senior brother. We grew up together and I have always respected him. He is very talented in cultivation. He may become the next monk of the Four Harmonies and One Realm of our Baishou." , was granted the title of Marquis of Ten Thousand Households. Since he reached the master level, my senior brother has directly confessed to me that he wants to become a Taoist companion with me. He always pesters me, and I am a little afraid of seeing him now, hey."
Hearing this, Mu Sheng stared into her eyes and asked: "Then do you have a slight liking for him in your heart? Even if you have a little bit of love for him?"
Fang Yunyi shook his head and said: "No, he is like my big brother in my heart. I never thought he would treat me like this. To be honest, I feel very uncomfortable. I am afraid of getting hurt if I reject him directly. I have fallen in love with him, and the brothers and sisters in the sect are also optimistic about us and want us to be together, but I can't always go against my heart and I can't accept him."
Hearing this, Mu Sheng understood her feelings and comforted him: "Have you said these words to him?"
Fang Yunyi shook his head slightly and said: "No, I have never done it."
Mu Sheng sighed and said: "If you continue to break up, you will be disturbed. You are afraid of hurting your senior brother, but dragging it on like this is not a good thing for both of you."
Fang Yunyi said in a low tone: "I know, but I still dare not really come out. I don't want to hurt him, so I can only stay away from him. I hope that one day he can figure it out for himself."
Mu Sheng said: "In this case, you don't have to go back to Baishou often in the future. I will ask Yang Jin to arrange a residence for you in the inner palace. You can just live in the inner palace directly. It will also be convenient for you to run errands."
Fang Yunyi looked in disbelief. She glanced at Mu Sheng secretly, but did not dare to refuse, and said: "Your Majesty, this... is not good, I..."
Mu Sheng smiled and said: "Don't get me wrong, the relationship between you and me is just that of a superior and a subordinate. Since you want to avoid him, then avoid him in the name of official business. I understand your difficulties, and it will be easy for you in the future." Senior brother, if you think about it, you can go back at any time."
Fang Yunyi could only say: "Well, thank you, Your Majesty, I understand."
Mu Sheng suddenly asked: "By the way, Yunyi, I remembered something. At that time, Zhang Daoling, a demon, tried medicine for Your Majesty and found more than fifty good seedlings that could be cultivated. I only found out about these children after I ascended the throne. They were all sent to Bai Shou for training, is this a problem?"
Fang Yunyi nodded and said: "It is indeed true. These children have great potential for cultivation, and everyone in this sect attaches great importance to them."
Mu Sheng said: "Let's go, take me to see them."
Fang Yunyi said: "Your Majesty, these children are not at the headquarters. We have set up a secret camp three hundred miles outside the city to train them. If Your Majesty wants to see them, I will make arrangements right away."
Mu Sheng thought for a while and said, "No need, let's do it later."
Mu Sheng also remembered his original promise to Corpse Puppet Sect Qiu Hao to find a successor for him. These children are ready-made good seeds. He will carefully select a few when he has time in the future.
