Even as Yuhuatian was dealing with various complicated affairs in the capital, things were not peaceful in the world.
The matter of Liancheng Treasure has attracted the attention of countless martial arts masters and Jianghu forces.
It is said that this treasure was buried by the Emperor of Daliang himself before the fall of Daliang Kingdom hundreds of years ago.
It is conceivable that a national treasure is absolutely priceless.
The most important thing is that there are not only countless gold and silver treasures, but also a peerless martial arts that can open the bridge between heaven and earth and achieve the realm of heaven and man - Shen Zhao Jing.
Powerful heavenly beings are called land gods. There are only a few of them in the whole of China, and they are all peerless figures who are like gods and dragons.
So as soon as the news came out, not only the ordinary martial arts people, but also some of the great masters began to feel restless. They sent people to Jingzhou City to investigate the news, and some even went directly in person.
The storm caused by Liancheng Treasure seems to be getting bigger and bigger.
…
Xueyue City.
Since the last attack by the imperial court, many forces have withdrawn from the Xueyue City Alliance. Xueyue City has since been closed off and no longer pays attention to Jianghu affairs.
This behemoth, who had stood tall in the world for nearly a hundred years, seemed to have really softened in front of the imperial court.
Of course, who knows what the specific situation will be?
At this time, the damage in other parts of Xueyue City has been repaired. Only in front of Shangguan City, the collapsed Dengtian Pavilion has not yet been rebuilt. It is still in ruins, as if to remember the battle that day. of humiliation.
In the inner city, Sikong Changfeng, the three city lords of Xueyue City, walked quickly towards a house deep in the city lord's palace with a stern look on his face.
Arriving at the door of the house, Sikong Changfeng stepped back and immediately saw a man in green clothes with disheveled hair sitting in the center of the house. He was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, and his whole body was covered with a light layer of white. halo.
This person is surprisingly none other than the Great Master of Xueyue City, Baili Dongjun.
"Baili, something happened." Sikong Changfeng came to Baili Dongjun and said solemnly.
Hearing this, Baili Dongjun's eyelids moved slightly, he slowly opened his eyes and said calmly: "What's wrong?"
Sikong Changfeng said in a deep voice: "There is news from the rivers and lakes that a city-linked treasure has been discovered in Jingzhou City."
"The treasure was revealed?"
Baili Dongjun frowned slightly and said, "Do you want to take advantage of this treasure?"
In the last battle, in order to preserve Xueyue City, he was forced to relent and promised Yuhuatian that he would make up for the taxes owed by Xueyue City and pay taxes on time every year in the future.
But Xueyue City has never paid taxes since it was built.
After decades of accumulation, the amount of tax owed is an extremely huge amount.
Even Xueyuecheng cannot afford this number, so during this period of time, Xueyuecheng has been trying to find ways to raise money to pay taxes.
Sikong Changfeng shook his head and said: "The treasure is just one of them. The most important thing is that this treasure also contains many martial arts secrets."
"Martial arts secrets?" Baili Dongjun frowned a little more tightly: "Does Xueyue City lack these martial arts secrets?"
"But what if there is a peerless magical skill among them that can allow people to directly reach the realm of heaven and man?" Sikong Changfeng said word by word.
boom--
A huge momentum suddenly erupted from Baili Dongjun, and the powerful pressure made Sikong Changfeng couldn't help but take two steps back.
Baili Dongjun's eyes were sharp and he stared at Sikong Changfeng: "A unique magical skill that allows people to directly reach heaven and earth?!"
Sikong Changfeng nodded and said in a deep voice: "I have sent people to inquire about it. The news is very likely to be true. This magical skill is called 'Shen Zhao Jing', and it is the name of the famous martial arts star 'Iron Bone Mo Calyx' forty years ago. 'Mei Niansheng's unique skill, this Mei Niansheng used this magical skill to travel across the world, and was invincible at the Grand Master level. Now forty years have passed, maybe he has really broken through to the level of heaven and man!"
"And this Book of Divine Illumination may really allow people to open the bridge between heaven and earth and directly reach the realm of heaven and man!"
Hearing this, Baili Dongjun took a deep breath and slowly clenched his fists.
He is now a great master, and he is only one step away from the level of heaven and human beings.
But this realm is not so easy to break through. He has stayed in this realm for more than ten years.
Although the Grand Master's perfection is only one step away from the gods, the difference between them is like a chasm in the sky and they are not on the same level at all.
For example, if he were at the heavenly level, the last time he faced Yuhuatian, Xueyue City would never have been reduced to the point of closing the city down and subduing him. Even Yuhuatian would not dare to come to Xueyue City to act arrogantly!
If he is a heavenly being, why should Xueyue City suffer such humiliation!
Therefore, Baili Dongjun is so excited now that he heard that the Divine Illumination Sutra can allow people to break through the heavens and humans.
It was obvious that he was tempted!
After a while, he took a deep breath, looked at Sikong Changfeng, and said, "When will we set off?"
Sikong Changfeng said: "I plan to set off in three days, but this city's treasure has already attracted many people from the world, and even some hidden great masters have been born!"
"Not surprising." Baili Dongjun nodded, not surprised.
There is a priceless treasure, and there is also a technique that can open the bridge between heaven and earth, and break through the heavens and humans. Without even thinking about it, Xue Yuecheng must not only be tempted.
However, with the strength of Xueyue City, it is not afraid of these ordinary forces.
After all, he is now in the Grandmaster's Perfection state.
As long as the gods don't come out, who can compete with him?
Baili Dongjun thought for a moment and quickly made a decision:
"In three days, I will set off with you. You will be in the light and I will be in the dark. We will act according to the opportunity!"
Sikong Changfeng nodded, and then said: "There is one more question."
"What's the problem?" Baili Dongjun asked.
Sikong Changfeng said in a deep voice: "It is said that this Liancheng treasure is as rich as any country. The imperial court will not let such a huge wealth fall into the hands of others. In other words, the imperial court will probably intervene this time."
"And the imperial court currently regards Xichang as the most respected person and is specifically responsible for cases in the Jianghu."
Having said this, Sikong Changfeng said nothing more.
But Baili Dongjun immediately understood what he meant.
The imperial court official from the West Factory, Yuhuatian, will probably go there too!
Baili Dongjun was silent for a moment, and suddenly a stern look appeared in his eyes, and he said: "He will come when he comes. If you encounter him, don't hold back!"
In the last battle, he had to bow his head to take the overall situation into consideration.
But this does not mean that he is afraid of Yuhuatian!
Sikong Changfeng said in a deep voice: "This man is now in a high position of power. He controls the East and West Second Factory and the Jinyi Guards, and even the capital's 100,000 forbidden troops are at his disposal. If we can't kill him, our Xueyue City will definitely be attacked by his madness." revenge."
Baili Dongjun said coldly: "This time, if he really dares to come, I won't give him another chance to leave alive!"
As he spoke, Baili Dongjun opened his palms, and a long sword suddenly flew out from the far room and fell into his hands.
The old scabbard looks extremely ordinary and simple, but it carries a glorious and heavy aura.
This is still unsheathed.
If it were to be taken out of the sheath, one can imagine that it would be earth-shattering!
Baili Dongjun stroked the blade of the sword, his originally cold eyes suddenly softened, and a confident temperament suddenly appeared on his body.
It's like holding this sword, you hold the entire world!
Looking at the long sword, Sikong Changfeng looked solemn, with a hint of respect in his eyes.
At this time, Baili Dongjun said: "Where is Hanyi?"
Hearing this, Sikong Changfeng came back to his senses, sighed softly, and said, "I'm going back to the mountain."
Baili Dongjun frowned and said in a deep voice, "He blames me for not saving Lei Wujie?"
Sikong Changfeng was silent. After a moment, he sighed: "Lei Wujie is her biological brother after all. She has no feelings for the Lei family, but Lei Wujie is her only relative in this world after all."
Baili Dongjun looked coldly and said, "What? We are not her relatives?"
Sikong Changfeng shook his head and said: "This girl has been extremely cold and stubborn since she was a child. Last time, in order to protect Xueyue City, you had to hand over Lei Wujie. Although she can understand it, but... alas!"
Baili Dongjun snorted: "Now that you understand, you still hate me? In her heart, we can never compare to her younger brother whom she has not seen for more than ten years! She was picked up by the master from a pack of wolves. , it seems that wolves are wolves, they are never well-raised!”
Hearing this, Sikong Changfeng frowned.
After all, they are brothers and sisters.
This is a bit too much!
"Since the last battle with Na Yuhuatian, your temperament has changed a lot lately."
Sikong Changfeng couldn't help but said: "Xueyue City was glorious in the hands of the three of us, and reached the supreme position in the southern martial arts world, but now it is declining in our hands, and it was defeated in the hands of a junior. This is indeed disgraceful. "
"I understand your feelings, but Hanyi grew up with us after all. Don't let other things affect the relationship between us."
Hearing this, Baili Dongjun's expression changed slightly and he fell silent.
After a moment, he shook his head and said: "It's not me, but it's not that I have changed. As the Great Master of Xueyuecheng, I am also your senior brother. I not only have to consider you, but also Xueyuecheng." It would be best if Hanyi can understand the ups and downs of Han Yi. If she can’t understand, then if she wants to hate him, then let her hate him.”
Sikong Changfeng hesitated to speak.
But Baili Dongjun was no longer in the mood to continue talking about this topic, and waved his hand: "That's it, we will set off in three days. You are in the dark and I am in the dark, and we cooperate with each other."
"It doesn't matter whether the treasure can be obtained or not, but the Divine Illumination Sutra must be obtained. Whoever stands in the way will die!"
After that, Baili Dongjun stood up and left.
Sikong Changfeng looked at his back, his brows furrowed a little tighter.
Although Baili Dongjun doesn't admit it.
But how could he not see that since his last defeat at the hands of the imperial court and being forced to bow his head in public, and even to a junior, Baili Dongjun had begun to change.
He no longer had the lazy, gentle temperament he once had, but became sullen and irritable.
It was as if the demon in my heart had been released.
Moreover, his pursuit of strength at this moment is too intense.
Breaking through the heavens and beings has become an obsession of his. Sometimes he would sit in the yard for the whole day.
If this continues, even if Baili Dongjun really breaks through to heaven, will he still be the senior brother they once were?
A hint of worry appeared in Sikong Changfeng's eyes.
At this moment, he suddenly thought of their master, the man who had suppressed countless martial arts masters and ranked first on the Ming Dynasty Swordsmanship Ranking with an Eternal Sword, a man who has never been replaced by anyone to this day.
At the beginning, the relationship between their master and apprentice was very good, but since the master became more and more powerful, he became more and more indifferent towards feelings.
But now, the senior brother seems to be like this.
Is strength really that fascinating?
If so, what is the purpose of practicing martial arts?
Sikong Changfeng's eyes were confused. After standing like this for a long time, he left with full of anger and depression.
"well……"
A long sigh sounded in the small courtyard.
…
Supreme Alliance.
Guan Yutian was wearing a noble golden robe, leaning on the alliance leader's throne, with a majestic demeanor, holding a cup of fine wine, his face full of intoxication and fascination.
As the Supreme Alliance unified the southern martial arts world, he had enjoyed unprecedented rights and desires in recent times, as if the world was at his fingertips.
The ambition he had when he was young seems to be just around the corner now!
Except for Shaolin Temple and Xueyue City, he has the final say in this southern martial arts world.
Next, as long as he gets rid of the two obstacles, Shaolin Temple and Xueyue City, he will be the true martial arts supreme in the south!
However, he has not forgotten who is really in control of all this.
It's the imperial court, it's the factory owner of Xichang, Yuhuatian!
The man who could decide his life or death...no, it was the eunuch!
Thinking of this, Guan Yutian's face darkened again.
This feeling of being in control of everything, but having life and death controlled by others, is really uncomfortable.
But thinking of Yuhuatian's terrifying strength, he really couldn't bring up the idea of resisting.
Even though he now controls the southern martial arts world, he knows very well that if he dares to have different intentions, he will lose everything he has at the moment, which is just an instant.
That person can help him become the supreme martial arts master, or he can knock him into the abyss.
"Bang..."
With a little force, the wine glass in his hand was crushed to pieces by Guan Yutian.
He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger and unwillingness in his heart, and murmured: "Wait a minute! Wait a minute!"
"As long as I achieve great feats and surpass him in strength, I can immediately break this shackles and become the true martial arts supreme!"
Tap tap tap~
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps came, and then a man in black hurriedly broke into the hall, raised his hands and said: "Leader, there is news. The treasure of Jingzhou City is indeed real, and it can open the bridge between heaven and earth. , the peerless magical skill that breaks through the realm of heaven and man is also true. This skill is called Shen Zhao Jing, and it is said to be the unique skill of Mei Niansheng, a famous martial arts figure who once roamed the world!"
Hearing this, Guan Yutian stood up suddenly, with a fiery gleam in his eyes.
Naturally, he had already received the news that a treasure had been discovered in Jingzhou City.
But what really concerned him was the rumored magical power that could open the bridge between heaven and earth and directly reach the realm of heaven and man.
So after receiving the news, he immediately sent someone to check the authenticity.
But now, the news is confirmed, his chance has come!
As long as he gets this magical skill, he will soon be able to greatly improve his strength and surpass Yuhuatian.
By then, it will be the time when he, Guan Yutian, will unify the world of Ming Dynasty and become the supreme king in the martial arts world!
Moreover, no one can control his life and death anymore.
His life and death can only be controlled by himself!
"Gather men immediately and head to Jingzhou City! I, the Supreme Alliance, want this city-wide treasure and peerless magical power!"
Guan Yutian ordered with a domineering look on his face, with cold murderous intent in his eyes.
Anyone who dares to compete with him for the treasure and magical power will die!
——
Beijing.
With the lockdown, calm seems to have returned to Beijing.
Everything is the same as before.
West Factory.
In the past few days, Yuhuatian has been staying at the Yamen to handle political affairs.
The East and West Second Factory and the Jinyiwei have the power of supervision and arrest. They have yamen all over the Ming Dynasty. Some important cases are handled by the Jinyiwei. Unless the Jinyiwei cannot handle them, they are transferred to the East and West Factory and are handled by stronger people. deal with.
As the power center, Xichang still has a very heavy task. There are many new cases submitted every day, and there are also many backlogged old cases.
These matters used to be handled by Tan Luzi and Cao Zhengchun, but these two days Yuhuatian was free, so he took over personally.
At this time, Yu Huatian was looking through the files of a family extermination case. Tan Luzi suddenly walked in, raised his hands with a solemn expression and said:
"Reporting to the Governor, there is news about Liancheng's treasure."
Yu Huatian raised his eyebrows, put down the file, nodded and said, "Tell me about it."
"yes!"
Tan Luzi saluted and then said: "About the treasure, although we have not yet found out who made the news, but according to the information sent back by the Jin Yiwei, it is very likely to be true. It is said that this treasure is from the fall of the Liang Kingdom hundreds of years ago. Before, it was buried by Emperor Liang himself."
Daliang?
Yuhuatian nodded slightly. The Liang Kingdom was indeed established on the current territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the general location was indeed located in the Jingzhou City area.
The most important thing is that after Daliang was destroyed, its wealth was indeed not found.
From this point of view, this city-linked treasure does indeed exist.
At this time, Tan Luzi continued: "Moreover, in addition to the treasures, there are rumors in the world recently that there is also a martial arts called Shenzhao Jing hidden among the treasures in the city. It is said that people can open the bridge between heaven and earth. Directly to the realm of heaven and man!”
The Divine Illumination Sutra!
Yu Huatian narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said calmly: "Do you believe it?"
Since there are Liancheng treasures, there must be Shenzhao Sutra and Liancheng Jue, which is not surprising to Yuhuatian.
But the so-called Shen Zhao Jing, which can allow people to open the bridge between heaven and earth and break through the realm of heaven and man, is mostly nonsense.
Not very reliable.
Tan Luzi shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter whether my subordinates believe it or not. The most important thing is that those martial arts people believe it."
"I heard that many forces have rushed to Jingzhou City in the past few days, and even some hidden great masters have appeared!"
Yuhuatian nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and said, "Get ready. We will set off in three days and rush to Jingzhou City."
Since the news is confirmed to be true, no matter what, this treasure must belong to the imperial court and must not be allowed to fall into the hands of others.
As for the Divine Illumination Sutra, Yuhuatian did not hold out much hope.
If you can get better, it doesn't matter if you don't get it.
Moreover, Yu Huatian suspected that the treasure might really exist, but the Divine Light Sutra might just be a bait released by the person behind the scenes to attract these martial arts masters.
If this martial arts can really allow people to break through heaven and earth, then why don't the people behind the scenes keep it for themselves, but let it go?
The purpose is probably to use the hands of these martial arts experts to muddy the water and deal with someone.
If this news was really released by the Qinglong Society, Yu Huatian suspected that the person behind the scenes wanted to deal with him.
But it doesn’t matter.
As long as the treasure is real.
You want to deal with me, why don't I want to deal with you?
It is still unclear who is the hunter and who is the prey!
A cold light flashed in Yuhuatian's eyes.
"In addition, inform Dongfang Bubai and Murong Qiudi, and by the way, Guan Yutian, and ask them to take people to Jingzhou City and wait for my order!"
Yuhuatian ordered.
"yes!"
Tan Luzi said in a deep voice.
Yuhuatian nodded, then said no more, stood up and walked out of the house.
He was going to the palace to see Zhu Youxiao and report the matter.
Since Jiang Yuyan's death, Zhu Youxiao has not summoned him in the past few days, and he must have hated him in his heart.
But Yuhuatian didn't care.
If he hates it, let him hate it, as long as he doesn't affect his plan.
Moreover, Yuhuatian has already laid out a perfect plan on how to deal with these hidden dangers.
His own destiny can only be controlled by himself and will never be easily handed over to the hands of others!
There's a bit of lag, and I haven't had time to review it. If there are any typos, please point them out and I'll correct them later.
And the chapter from last night, let me explain it again:
The protagonist is disappointed and angry because he helped Zhu Youxiao defeat so many enemies and consolidate his power, but Zhu Youxiao still kept showing off, was content with the status quo, and even devoted himself to women, destroying his body. , even if Jiang Yuyan is eliminated, it is for the emperor's benefit in the final analysis. Otherwise, if the protagonist is not in the capital, the emperor's brains will definitely not be able to play with Jiang Yuyan. If you don't know Jiang Yuyan, you can search it on Baidu. This woman is not simple.
