Cao Zhengchun left with three thousand elites from Dongchang.
Just like when he arrived, the word "bitter" still hung on his face.
He knew that the decision he made was a gamble. If he won the bet, there would be no reward. If he lost the bet, he would die.
But he knew better that if he continued to stay outside Lingjue Mountain, he would still die.
In this case, the most correct decision is to give it a try and have a chance to survive.
At the same time, he was also praying silently in his heart, praying that the Jade Rakshasa would not wander halfway up the mountain and suddenly rush down again. He hoped that the other party could always stay on Lingjue Mountain honestly, and it would be best to leave all the corpses on that mountain peak.
Then Cao Zhengchun took out the token and contacted Qin Fan.
[Cao Zhengchun: I listened to you and withdrew after meeting with the Jade Rakshasa. 】
[Qin Fan: Oh. 】
[Cao Zhengchun: According to intelligence, King Wuwei will not arrive at Lingjue Mountain until tomorrow. 】
[Qin Fan: Whose information? 】
[Cao Zhengchun: Information about Daxuan Enshrinement Hall. 】
[Qin Fan: Have you ever thought that the timing when it was rumored that King Wuwei’s destination was Ling Jue Mountain was a bit too perfect. 】
[Cao Zhengchun: Just right? Does it mean that after getting this information, he went to Lingjue Mountain at the fastest speed of Jade Rakshasa, just one day earlier than King Wuwei? 】
[Qin Fan: It may be one day, it may be half a day, it may be six hours, but no matter what, he must be the first one to arrive. 】
[Cao Zhengchun: Why? 】
[Qin Fan: Because Ling Jue Mountain is very dangerous, someone has to explore the way first, just like you and the three thousand elites of Dongchang are to the Jade Rakshasa. 】
[Cao Zhengchun: He is very powerful. If he really finds out something.]
[Qin Fan: Haven't you heard a sentence? The more you know, the faster you will die. 】
[Cao Zhengchun: I don’t quite understand what you mean. 】
[Qin Fan: There is no chance in Ling Jue Mountain. It is just a test place to distinguish one's position. To forcefully cross the distrust stage to the trust stage, the best way is to join forces to kill a troublesome person. 】
[Cao Zhengchun: Is this troublesome person the Jade Rakshasa? 】
[Qin Fan: It could be Jade Rakshasa, or it could be me. In fact, as a person in the game, I haven’t seen through the real purpose of the person behind it. 】
Cao Zhengchun's brows furrowed tightly. At this moment, he vaguely understood the reason why he had always been inferior to Jade Rakshasa, inferior to King Wuwei, and inferior to Qin Fan.
In a dilemma full of mysteries, he lacks the courage to risk everything to face the difficulties.
Even in the eyes of some, this kind of courage can be called foolish.
Then he felt hesitant in his heart. Due to the experience of the original owner of the destiny body, he became more careful in his actions and would not easily form grudges. In the case of Jade Rakshasa, it was obvious that the other party forced him to rebel.
But now it seems that there is a choice before him.
[Cao Zhengchun: Do you need me to go back and help you? Even if I am not suitable to take action in some situations, I can still help you secretly. 】
[Qin Fan: No, this is not the chessboard you should step into. As for the Jade Rakshasa, don’t worry. Don’t forget that the person who gave you one day, half a day, or six hours is King Wuwei. Idiot The fish that the husband bites on the bait are not so easy to break free.
Moreover, the court's response was not quite right. Almost everyone pushed Jade Rakshasa.
What would happen if the Jade Rakshasa could kill King Wuwei? 】
[Cao Zhengchun: King Wuwei is the most wanted traitor now, and is the source of trouble in Kyushu. If the Jade Rakshasa can really kill King Wuwei.
For the Daxuan Dynasty, his reputation will reach its peak, and his influence in these troubled times will be comparable to that of the first Emperor Xuan who established Daxuan.
Especially now that all external forces are indirectly involved, the benefits he can gain are immeasurable.
In addition, he is from the Jade royal family. Compared with the little emperor who has been doing nothing, some important officials in the court and those who realize that peace is hard-won may spontaneously elect him as the new emperor. 】
[Qin Fan: I understand, Governor Cao, I believe our cooperation will be very pleasant in the future. 】
Cao Zhengchun looked at the token that had been unilaterally cut off in confusion. He thought about the conversation just now, and he always felt that something was wrong.
Although discussing the ownership of the throne with a prince who knew he was rebellious might leave some hidden dangers, Cao Zhengchun didn't care. If Qin Fan could help him at this time, he believed that Qin Fan would not cheat on this issue again. he.
Moreover, as the broken martial arts path continues, the so-called throne will remain the same.
The increasingly powerful threat of force has affected Emperor Xuan's rule. It is also because there has always been an uncrowned king in the Daxuan Worship Hall, and the Six Paths Legion cannot really work together with the masters of the Worship Hall.
What they did during this period was passive defense and defense, which allowed the current Daxuan Dynasty to only occupy an area of more than one state.
At this moment, Cao Zhengchun seemed to understand something.
When he looked at Ling Jueshan again, he felt his scalp numb.
——
Ling Jue Shan.
Jade Rakshasa led three masters of the Celestial Realm, walking slowly along the mountain path as if on a picnic.
Occasionally they would see a long sword stuck in a corner, and they would stop and observe for a while, and then continue upward.
"Hall Master, it is a bit too risky for us to go to Lingjue Mountain this time." Huo Xiu approached the Jade Rakshasa and said.
"What adventure do you mean?" The Jade Rakshasa felt the resentment that was constantly eroding towards him, and the energy around his body shook, forcing him out of his body.
"Cao Zhengchun and the three thousand elites of Dongchang cannot stop King Wuwei. Even if we add the four of us, we are not 100% sure to take him down. Besides, the strength of the three people beside him cannot be accurately judged."
"You don't believe in the strength of this hall master?"
"I just think there should be a more stable grasp to make it easier to take action."
"But my brother Wang will not give us such a rare opportunity again."
"Actually, we can send King Zhennan to help."
Jade Rakshasa suddenly stopped. He took a deep look at Huo Xiu and said:
"Brother Wang, although he is a disgrace to our Yu family, the person who wants to kill him must be named Yu. Besides, when we know that we will win, why would we add unnecessary variables to our side?"
"Must win?"
"You'll know then."
Jade Rakshasa didn't want to talk more, and the four of them had no communication on the mountain climbing road. They crossed the mountain stream, passed several small pavilions, and saw the servants' rooms wrapped in the aura of death and resentment. They did not go deep. Investigation, because the moment they raised their eyes, all four of them saw a figure looming on the top of the mountain.
That person is their real target.
When he was still one-fifth of the way to the top of the mountain, Jade Rakshasa suddenly said:
"We were deceived by Cao Zhengchun. He did not climb Lingjue Mountain."
Because after starting to climb the mountain, the Jade Rakshasa was trying to use the power of the soul to sense the surrounding situation, but as soon as the soul left the body, it would be severely eroded by the aura of death and resentment.
Therefore, any words about detecting Qi and fighting with it from a distance are all lies.
He guessed that Cao Zhengchun must be afraid, afraid of entering Lingjue Mountain, and even more afraid of becoming a victim in the confrontation between the two Yu clans!
"After we go back, there will be no need for this Dongchang to exist. A eunuch should do his job honestly."
Jade Rakshasa's voice was cold. He could think that Cao Zhengchun had probably run away with those Dongchang elites, although he couldn't figure out how he dared to be bold and not afraid of settling the scores himself.
But for someone who disobeys his instructions again and again, even if the other person is a strong person in the Celestial Realm, he has no need to live.
The Gui brothers, who had always been silent, responded in unison: "I will obey the order of the hall master."
Huo Xiu's eyes flickered and he didn't say much.
Half an hour later.
The four of them broke through a layer of gray fog condensed by the energy of death and resentment, and finally reached the top of Lingjue Mountain.
There are traces of a competition ground here, but it looks even more dilapidated due to the erosion of the resentment.
And a Taoist in gray clothes was sitting quietly on some rocks, with a long sword lying across his knees. He held the sword carefully with one hand, and gently touched the scabbard with his other hand, hiding in his gray eyes With a touch of affection.
This also attracted the attention of the four people for the first time.
"Wang Chongyang?" Although it was a question, seeing the other person's face, Jade Rakshasa had already confirmed his identity.
"Strange, Cao Zhengchun's castrated dog clearly didn't climb Lingjue Mountain, so why does it still confirm that you are on this mountain?"
His question did not receive an answer from Wang Chongyang, but the other person's right hand, which was caressing the sword, suddenly trembled when he heard what he said.
At this time, he slowly raised his head and looked at the four people quietly.
"Is it you that Brother Wang wants to see?" Jade Rakshasa frowned and stopped when he was a hundred meters away.
He came to Lingjue Mountain not only to kill people, but also to get an answer.
Although the first purpose was important, the second purpose aroused his confusion and curiosity even more selfishly.
"You are not the guest that should come." Wang Chongyang's voice was hoarse.
"Why does he want to see you? Where is Bi Po Qiong?" Jade Rakshasa asked while looking around. Even though he couldn't observe with the power of his soul on Lingjue Mountain, after scanning around with his eyesight, everything was still clear. .
He was very sure that there was no second person hiding on the top of the mountain, but just because he got this answer, he was a little disappointed.
Wang Chongyang suddenly stood up after hearing Bi Poqiong's name.
His left hand was still firmly holding the scabbard of the long sword, and his right hand was in the shape of a sword finger, pointing out instantly!
boom--!
Raging sword energy burst out from his fingertips, and a desperate sword energy that seemed to have lost all life spread, and then turned into an unstoppable sword energy storm that enveloped all four people in front!
Jade Rakshasa did not take action, Huo Xiu took half a step back, and the Gui brothers jumped out, two long swords flashing with cold light crossed like two silver-white horses hanging across the sky!
As the two figures continued to flicker, the two swaying sword lights completely offset the lifeless sword energy they shot!
Just when the two of them were about to kill Wang Chongyang on the spot, Wang Chongyang struck out a sword finger into the void in front of him again!
As the sword energy splashed out, a mysterious aura enveloped it. The Gui brothers, who were about to pierce Wang Chongyang's waist, suddenly had a trace of confusion in their eyes. As swordsmen, their hands began to Unconscious trembling.
Endless love is released in his heart, as if the person he is about to kill is his destined lover who has been entangled with him for nine lifetimes!
It was also with this stunning move that Wang Chongyang blasted out with a palm. The palm seemed weak and weak, but in an instant it turned into a blizzard and knocked the Gui brothers away at the same time!
——The frost-breaking ice palm!
Jade Rakshasa and Huo Xiu didn't take this palm technique seriously, and even the inanimate sword energy at the beginning did not change their expressions at all. On the contrary, Wang Chongyang's sword finger that struck the void for no reason made His brows frowned subconsciously.
"It's the Supreme Desire Canon."
"Well, according to the records in the library of the Enshrining Hall, the emotions that are cut off will be converted into a special energy, which is attached to every move and style. It is similar to spiritual illusion, but it can go beyond the protection of the soul and touch the bottom of the heart. "
"But it doesn't feel like him."
Before coming to Ling Jue Mountain, Jade Rakshasa took the time to investigate the information related to Bi Po Qiong. Therefore, he also knew that the head of the Tianjian Sect used his daughter's marriage as a bargaining chip to trade the "Tai Shang Desire Canon" with the court. The remnants of the story.
Later, he took advantage of a major chaos to kill his daughter's husband in order to cut off and pay homage to his family ties.
Information about how some people in the imperial court had practiced the "Tai Shang Desire Canon" was also collected. After reading it, both Jade Rakshasa and Huo Xiu felt that only lunatics, no, only monsters with incomplete brain development would practice this. A kind of evil technique.
However, this technique can rapidly improve one's strength in a short period of time, which is undeniable.
After all, during the previous battle on the top of the Knife Mountain, Wang Chongyang's realm was only at the late stage of the Grand Master. Now, it only takes two months to reach the middle stage of the Celestial Realm, which is simply terrifying.
However, due to the special nature of this technique, cultivating dead soldiers may betray you at any time, and normal people will not practice it on their own, so it is really like useless.
After knocking the Gui brothers away, Wang Chongyang sat back down among the rocks and continued to carefully protect the sword in his hand as if caressing a lover.
This also allowed Jade Rakshasa to stop the Gui brothers from continuing their attack.
"Hall Master, you must have mentioned that name just now, which caused him to suddenly take action." Huo Xiu whispered.
Jade Rakshasa nodded, he also thought of this.
Regarding this kind of crazy love-making situation, everything is based on instinctive reactions. If you like it, you like it, and if you dislike it, you dislike it. If you think about it this way, it is actually not difficult to communicate.
Just when he was thinking about how to continue the routine.
Wang Chongyang suddenly stood up again.
He looked past the four people to look behind them, and murmured: "The first guest has arrived."
"The first one?" Huo Xiu frowned.
"Damn Cao gelding." Although he had guessed that the other party had run away early, after it actually happened, Jade Rakshasa still cursed secretly.
Then he turned around and looked at the tall figure walking through the gray mist.
At the same time, a poetic trumpet began to echo on the top of Lingjue Mountain.
[Xuanyu Gujuan felt depressed for a moment, with murderous intent, and hundreds of cities were in ruins; with mighty martial arts, thousands of banners roared wildly, stepping on the sacred wasteland, and all races became kings! 】
