When Emperor Jianyuan returned to Wang'an City with his followers, his expression turned extremely ugly.
He did not find any trace of Long Yang twelve thousand miles to the east. On the contrary, the royal tomb at the northern foot of the Western Mountain behind him was completely taken away again.
This battle not only resulted in nearly 4,000 Imperial Army casualties, but also two Imperial Army generals and a second-grade magician were killed in the battle.
What made Emperor Jianyuan even more furious was that the royal mausoleum was also forcibly broken into, everything inside was destroyed, and the bodies of Chu Zheng and Qin Muge were missing.
His body was suspended in the sky above the royal mausoleum, his eyes looking uncertainly at the mess below.
"Since the incident, how many people have entered this tomb and looked at it?"
At this time, although the interior of the royal tomb was severely damaged, many traces were left.
For example, the remaining runes of the Nine Curved Styx Formation, the abundant evil power in the tomb, and the underground river below.
"Your Majesty, when I led my army to arrive, there were many Jianghu martial arts cultivators nearby, and some daring people came in to observe the situation. I tried my best to hunt and kill, but because the incident happened in a hurry, I did not make any preparations, and there was still something wrong.
Few escaped."
The person who replied next to him was General Daning Zuojin Wuwei. This person was in charge of the defense of Huanglin Garden and was the closest force to the royal tomb.
His face was solemn, he raised his head and took a cautious glance at Emperor Jianyuan: "While I was searching, I also strictly ordered the Zuojin Wuwei troops to block and guard the surroundings of the royal tomb, and were not allowed to enter within ten miles of the royal tomb. However, I still have some generals under my command, who are following me.
I went inside and looked at the scene——"
Uneasiness grew in his heart.
Who would have thought that the emperor, who was known as a wise and mighty man, known for appointing the wise and employing their talents, loving the talented and pitying the weak, would actually do such a thing?
He actually turned a great general, the most outstanding general in Daning in the past 500 years, into a evil corpse!
General Zuo Jinwuwei was worried that what happened today would bring fatal disaster to his subordinates.
It didn't matter to him, but his subordinates couldn't withstand the emperor's murderous intention.
Emperor Jianyuan frowned and became even more angry.
However, since many people have escaped, the situation is irreversible. Killing and silencing them will not help, but will only confirm the groundless speculations of some people.
He then clenched his fists tightly and said in a cold voice: "I didn't know that someone actually dared to take Muge's idea and use this mausoleum to refine my unparalleled general into a evil corpse? What a daredevil.
Where are the Jin Yiwei and the Supervisor of the Great Nei Zhi Hall? Check it out for me! Who supervised the construction of this mausoleum, and who arranged the Jiuqu Yellow River Formation? This matter must be investigated to the bottom of the matter, and an explanation can be given to me and the northern soldiers."
General Zuo Jinwuwei felt relieved, knowing that his subordinates had saved their lives.
But he was thinking secretly in his heart, who in this world can hide the secrets from the imperial guards and the emperor, and tamper with the king's tomb?
The emperor wanted to use this teaching to silence everyone in the world, but he was afraid that it would be difficult to achieve his wish.
At this time, Emperor Jianyuan turned his attention to Xiao Hongchen, the commander of Tianya Jinyi Guards, and Zhu Mingyue, the eunuch of the Great Nei Zhi Palace.
In accordance with the agreement with Li Changsheng, Zong Qianliu, the former Supervisor of the Zhidian Palace, "Ben Yi Jue Chen", had officially resigned from his post three months ago and went to serve in the Beidi Army.
At this time, the supervisor of Ouchi Naoden had been replaced.
Zhu Mingyue is a little-known person in the world, but his demeanor and power are comparable to those of Zong Qianliu in the past.
Emperor Jianyuan's eyes were dissatisfied: "You two, do you have anything to say?"
"Today and yesterday, there were two big eucalyptus accidents in succession, and I can't help but blame them!"
Zhu Mingyue cupped her fists and bowed, with a solemn expression: "The ministers have ordered all parts of the capital to be on heightened alert. All towns and villages around the capital are under strict curfew, and several consecrated magicians have joined forces to monitor the area around Wang'an City and the area of 300 miles with the artifact 'Supervising Heaven Prodigy'.
You can feel the slightest movement.
In addition, a group of second-level masters have been deployed to ensure that these ambitious traitors can no longer commit crimes near the capital."
Xiao Hongchen also had a serious look on his face: "I have also tightened the security around the capital and searched for suspicious persons. However, the art of war says, 'If you defend for a long time, you will lose'. I am trying my best to search for traces and clues of those thieves and the Star Archmage Luohan Sect."
In addition, there is the fourth-grade swordsman who uses the 'Woxue Divine Sword'. I am going to join forces with Lunwulou to find out the identity of this person in the shortest possible time. Then there are the burial objects, all the gold and silver buried here.
All the utensils were taken away by them. As long as they use these things, they will definitely leave clues."
Emperor Jianyuan's anger finally subsided.
He knew in his heart that these two people were not to blame for this matter.
There are countless masters in the world, how can the imperial court guard against all of them?
Who would have thought that the ‘Great Master of the Stars’ Luohan Sect would actually collude with the remnants of the Chu family?
Basically, after these great masters commit crimes, the court will mobilize forces to investigate and track them until they are captured and killed.
For people like Lu Chen, whose "swords are like dreams", the court is still helpless.
This person has also been restraining the two Tianbang-level combatants in the imperial court, leaving them unable to take care of him.
That's why Taizong of Daning wanted to ban martial arts in the world and control all martial arts inheritance in the hands of the imperial court.
It's a pity that even someone as powerful as Taizong couldn't convince all parties. He only tried briefly and took the initiative.
"——In addition, I also want to investigate Wuji Sword Lord Chu Xisheng!"
A cold light flashed in Xiao Hongchen's eyes: "According to the report of my junior sister Ji Qianqian, in Youzhou a few days ago, Chu Xisheng had contact with the Divine Fist Judge Xi Bitian and the Iron-faced Judge Luo Yang. I have been
This incident has been confirmed and many people witnessed it at that time."
"Is this happening?"
Emperor Jianyuan looked surprised and then calmed down.
If Chu Xisheng really planned to collude with Xi Bitian and others, he shouldn't do it so blatantly.
However, this matter still needs to be investigated.
"You need to find out about this matter as soon as possible. What did they say at that time, what was Chu Xisheng's purpose for meeting the two of them, and how did they get in touch? You need to find out everything, but you also need to pay attention to the impact and don't cause trouble."
Emperor Jianyuan thought of Li Changsheng and couldn't help but snorted.
If it weren't for that short, fat old man with an inconspicuous appearance, he would have used all his skills to kill Chu Xisheng right now.
He immediately raised his hand and waved everyone away, leaving the Imperial Master Yu Kunlun alone by his side.
Emperor Jianyuan calmed down and asked in a solemn voice: "Since the Imperial Master came here, he has been thinking deeply about the long examination. What has been gained?"
When Yu Kunlun heard this, he immediately raised his eyelids, with a glimmer of light in his eyes: "I'm thinking, what is the purpose of these remnants of the Chu family's family to break the royal tomb?"
"What else could it be? Naturally, it is to seize the bodies of Qin Muge and their young master, which will make my several years of arrangements go to waste. In the future, I will lack a super-grade help.
They also want to ruin my reputation and alienate me from the northern armies, especially the soldiers of the two Jibing states! They may even know that I have captured their ‘Guiyi’ and ‘Wanxiang’.”
Emperor Jianyuan snorted softly, with infinite chill in his mouth.
But then he changed his voice and his eyes were solemn: "But I also feel something is wrong. In fact, they only need to take away the body, there is no need to destroy the tomb. It seems like an act to vent their anger, but it also seems like
Deliberately—"
This is what puzzled Yu Kunlun.
And there are always warning signs in his consciousness.
Yu Kunlun then raised his head again and looked at the scorching sun in the sky and earth.
He remembered the prophecy that suddenly spread in the capital decades ago.
Qin and Chu are so good that the sun rises over the Western Mountains.
Is there any connection between this?
Yu Kunlun narrowed his eyes: "Your Majesty, I need to sort out and investigate all the abnormal phenomena that occurred around this place before and after the construction of the royal tomb. In addition, please allow me to review all the eucalyptus files of the Ministry of Punishment in recent years."
※※※※
At this time, Chu Xisheng was piloting the Sun-Bathering Boat, flying back to the Western Mountains.
Both Luohan Sect and Tie Kuangren stayed in the capital, staying in the cave that Chu Fengge dug at the bottom of the Western Mountain until they completed the art of 'reversing yin and yang'.
Xi Bitian and others were sent to Yunhai Immortal Palace by Chu Xisheng.
In the next few months, these old members of the Chu family will stay here.
For the past two years, they have been evading the pursuit of the Chu family and the imperial court in the west of Beijing, and they have to look for various opportunities to avenge Chu Zheng. They have not relaxed for a moment for hundreds of days and nights, and their spirits are in a state of tension all the time.
If this state continues for a long time, it will definitely be detrimental to their state of mind and practice.
Even if it is the best bow in the world, it cannot be tightened at all times, otherwise it will break sooner or later.
The key is that the power of the Daning court is still extremely powerful.
As long as these people are out and about, they will definitely be found by the Jin Yiwei and the Great Nei Zhidian.
At this time, only the Cloud Sea Immortal Palace can ensure their safety, take a break, practice martial arts quietly, and soothe their minds.
Chu Xisheng's current headache is still the matter of collecting materials for 'reversing yin and yang' for Tie Kuangren.
The burial gifts prepared by Emperor Jianyuan for Qin Muge were relatively generous.
There are several million in gold and silver alone, and the rest of the artifacts are also rare treasures. There are even two second-grade weapons among them, with a total value of nearly 30 million taels of magic silver.
However, the overall value of these things is only one-fifth of the 'Inversion of Yin and Yang' materials.
Moreover, these artifacts cannot be sold for the time being and can only be stored in Yunhai Immortal Palace.
But since he had already said in front of the Luohan Sect that "all the magic materials will be prepared within a few days at most," he had to do it.
Otherwise, being looked down upon by others will also disappoint Uncle Kuang.
Chu Xisheng thought for a while, then formed a seal with his hands and opened the blue light curtain of the 'Divine Contract Sky Monument'.
"I have found three pages of "Divine Rings" and eight pages of "Divine Laws"."
"Divine Law" has more pages than "Divine Rings".
After all, there are only so many ways to punish, and the law must be strict and rigorous.
However, the power of the two books is almost the same.
Chu Xisheng was also pleasantly surprised to find that after he finished refining the newly obtained fragments of the 'Divine Contract Heavenly Monument', the cost of using this object also dropped significantly.
In the past, a medium-grade spiritual stone worth ten thousand silver could only pronounce one word.
Now I can pronounce five characters.
There was an instant reaction in this blue light curtain.
Chu Yunyun: “Where did you get it?”
When she spoke, she also found that the consumption of the 'Divine Contract Sky Monument' had dropped, but she was still concise and to the point.
Asked Zhuoyi: "Today I heard that two shocking incidents occurred near the capital. One was that the Chu family villa in the west of Beijing was massacred, and the eldest princess Long Yang was kidnapped and her whereabouts are unknown;
First, the royal mausoleum was forcibly broken into and the bodies of Chu Zheng and Qin Muge were taken away. It is also said that someone saw the emperor setting up the Nine-Meander Yellow River Formation in the royal mausoleum. I wonder if these two things were done by Xi Sheng? The two books of these precepts are incomplete.
Page, is it related to this?"
Ji Qianqian, who was also at Wuxiang Mountain, was also looking at the subtitles.
She was slightly confused.
Ji Qianqian concluded that these two crimes were probably done by Chu Xisheng.
She couldn't help but turn her head and looked towards the south with a complicated expression.
When I was counting money, I was thinking about Grand Master Dugu Shou.
If the adoptive father learns about this, I wonder what his reaction will be?
Chu Xisheng took revenge on the Chu family in the west of Beijing and the emperor. It was only natural that it was the Chu family in the west of Beijing and the emperor who could not tolerate him in the first place and forced him to be killed and buried alive.
However, this matter is not in line with Daning's laws and may not be what the grand master would like to see.
If this continues, Lord, he will definitely become the most vicious and powerful enemy of the Daning Dynasty.
The world will be in danger at that time.
Ji Qianqian couldn't help but have an idea that she had been thinking about for a long time arise in her heart.
If the Grand Master wants the world to be peaceful, he must change his son--
"We'll talk about the details later."
Chu Xisheng thought to himself that he was still short of money.
He looked at the line "Wen Bah Yi" and thought that hundreds of thousands of taels of magic silver were gone again.
If the reason for this was explained in detail on the Divine Contract Monument, his net worth would be reduced by millions.
"I have stored the remaining pages of "God's Law" in the Qiankun Ring. Yunyun can take it out from the Taixu Plate for refining. There is also a suicide note left by my father Chu Fengge. Yunyun can take a look at the remaining pages of "God's Ring".
You will stay in the Yunhai Immortal Palace. If you have time, can you go to the Heavenly Palace to perform sacrifices? Strengthen the power of the commandments."
Chu Yunyun, who was far away in the Wuxiang Mountain, suddenly turned pale.
baht clothes——
The words behind Chu Xisheng made Chu Yunyun frown tightly.
"In addition, I am in urgent need of money and a large amount of magic materials. I have hired the Luohan Sect to perform the 'inversion of yin and yang' technique on a close friend of mine to reverse life and death."
Chu Yunyun couldn't help being slightly stunned when she saw this.
The 'best friend' Chu Xisheng mentioned must be Tie Kuangren.
This time Chu Xisheng went south mainly for his crazy uncle.
Chu Yunyun's complexion instantly relaxed a little.
She quite approves of Iron Maniac.
The Tie brothers not only helped them a lot two years ago, but they also have great character and courage.
This person's weight in Chu Xisheng's mind is also different from that of ordinary people.
However, it is not easy to trouble Wuxiang Shenzong about the matter of Tie Kuangren.
A single 'inversion of yin and yang' cost more than ten million taels of divine gold, which they could not borrow from the Wuxiang Divine Sect.
Asked Zhuoyi: "I will send two copies of the 'inversion of yin and yang' materials, five thousand high-grade spiritual stones, twenty sets of third-grade battle armor, and fifty thousand medicines for practicing the secret method of the emperor's way to Yunhai Immortal Palace. The artifact has no
The price, this little money is far less than the value of the remaining pages of "The Ring of Gods", so please don't refuse."
In the Ice City of the Far East, Wen Zhuoyi felt particularly happy when he saw the word "铢衣" in the blue light screen.
I was even happier than learning that Chu Xisheng had found three pages of "The Ring of God".
Chu Xisheng's spirit perked up.
A high-grade spiritual stone is equivalent to one hundred thousand taels of magic silver, or ten thousand taels of divine gold.
Five thousand high-grade spiritual stones are equivalent to fifty million divine gold.
The handwriting of this asking sister is really bold.
There are also twenty sets of third-grade armors that are also valuable. They should be given to his old troops. This shows that he is very careful when asking the city lord.
As for the medicine of the Imperial Secret Technique, it can allow him to strengthen the Iron Banner Gang's combat power.
At this time, although the Iron Banner Gang could mobilize 200,000 troops, which was comparable to the state army's troops, only less than 30,000 of them had mastered the secret method of the Imperial Way.
Chu Xisheng raised the corners of her lips slightly, and was about to close the blue light screen in front of her, when she saw Lu Luanli also speaking on the light screen.
"Ruoxi and I are out!"
Chu Xisheng looked startled, and then imagined Lu Luanli crossing his arms, bulging his face into a bun, looking at the words on the light screen, and couldn't help laughing.
He took out a few spiritual stones from the Qiankun Ring and crushed them: "When will Luanli go south? The ancients said that one day without seeing you is like three autumns. I haven't seen Luanli for a month and a half, and I am thinking about it now, and I am worried about it. I am eagerly waiting for Luanli.
Once you see him, you can relieve your longing."
At Wuxiang Mountain, Lu Luanli was originally angry.
These people all pretend I don’t exist.
After reading Chu Xisheng's words, she couldn't help but twitching the corners of her lips.
However, when she spoke, her tone was still firm: "Why should I go south? Why do I have to go to see you?"
"Didn't Luan Li say that he wanted to spar with me after he came out?"
Chu Xisheng no longer cared about the loss of money. He endured the pain and crushed a few spiritual stones: "I'm in urgent need of help here. Luanli can go south as soon as possible. You and I can definitely sweep Fei into pieces if we work together."
Zhou. Don’t forget Luan Li, you are also the leader of the Iron Flag Gang."
Chu Yunyun couldn't stand it anymore.
She first grabbed the Nishen Flag Gun in her sleeve.
It's a pity that this thing has no use when people are not in front of it.
She could only close the light curtain, and then walked to the underground warehouse of Tianlan Residence and came to the Taixu Disk kept there.
Chu Yunyun first took out the broken pages of the "Divine Law", and then took out a letter that was completely purple and gold and was rotten and incomplete.
"Chu Fengge?"
She looked at the contents of the letter with a mixture of surprise and relief in her eyes.
It turns out that this is the reason why he and Chu Xisheng came back from the dead?
This man was indeed extremely talented, and he was able to hide this from the Emperor and the Imperial Advisor Yu Kunlun, and devise such means to reverse their lives and deaths.
What worried Chu Yunyun the most was that Chu Fengge had intended to warn her, but not only failed to alert her, but instead alerted the emperor and the imperial master.
This shows that the two most trusted relatives around her had turned against each other a few years ago.
This made Chu Yunyun feel extremely bitter in her heart, and she felt cold all over.
If it weren't for Chu Fengge, not only would her bones be cold now, but she would be transformed into a evil corpse in at most one year.
I owe my life to the Chu family and his son.
Then Chu Yunyun saw the last paragraph of text.
‘His Royal Highness the Crown Prince once joked with me that he wanted to betroth his unborn daughter to you——’
Chu Yunyun's eyes narrowed slightly, and then she sighed softly and stored the remaining letter in her hand into the 'Taixu Disk'.
She thought that both father and son were quite cunning.
Chu Xisheng had no idea what Chu Yunyun was thinking. After he solved the urgent issue of money, he suddenly felt relieved.
I don't know if it was because he was in a good mood, but when he drove this sun-bathing divine boat, he felt that it was easy to control it, like an arm.
It only took Chu Xisheng less than an hour and a half to get from Yunhai Immortal Palace to Xiushui County.
Before arriving at Xishan Town, Chu Xisheng put away the sun-bathing boat and flew all the way back to the Chu family mansion.
He did not deliberately avoid others, but reflected all sights and spiritual consciousness with his Yaizhan knife, and returned to the backyard of the mansion without incident.
At this time, Chu Xisheng's incarnation was handling gang affairs in the backyard lobby.
In addition to Tie Xiaosheng and Lu Jiuli, there was an old acquaintance in the room.
——That is Cao Xuan, deputy Qianhu of Jinyi County, Xiushui County.
This guy is relatively unlucky. In the two years since he met Chu Xisheng, not only has he not been promoted in official position, but he has been demoted to Deputy Qianhu, commanding the Qianhu Office in Xiushui County as a guilty person.
However, this person's cultivation has improved, and his body has clearly reached the fourth level.
Cao Xuan's martial arts talent is actually not weak.
If you don't have a certain level of strength, you won't be entrusted with the important task of being in charge of the Xiushui Thousand Households Office by the Jinyiwei of the local government.
In addition, there was a group of people waiting outside the house. They were a group of third-level masters led by Kuang Jian Feng San.
Wan Fengqing, Gu Mingyue, Dan Xuefei, Xiao Kuanglong, Ba Tianlai, and Feng Liancheng are all on the list.
These people should have returned after completing the tasks he assigned.
Chu Xisheng glanced around, walked in through the back door, and merged with his separate incarnation.
The whole process was silent, and even Cao Xuan, who was very close to Chi Chi in the hall, didn't notice anything strange at all.
Just when Chu Xisheng sat down, his heart suddenly surged, and he sensed that the secret ritual of promotion of his 'Tian Zhuang Sword' had been completed.
Chu Xisheng's child suddenly showed a gleam of light.
His secret ritual of ‘Destroying Heaven Sword’ is also extremely complete.
Chu Xisheng felt that the Heavenly Rule of Destruction was surrounding his body, echoing and resonating with him, almost as if they were in harmony with each other.
This also means one thing.
Long Yang's mother and son who were buried underground by him were already dead.
The corners of Chu Xisheng's lips raised slightly, and her already good mood became even happier.
He began to look through his clone's memories, especially the official affairs he had handled on his behalf.
Chu Xisheng was completely relieved.
This clone's personality memory is consistent with his, and its judgment of all things is generally the same.
Therefore, his handling of all the official affairs of the gang is very similar, but it is a little more rigid and lacks flexibility.
Fortunately, there were two people, Tie Xiaosheng and me, helping me, so everything went perfectly.
Chu Xisheng then cast a sidelong glance at Cao Xuan, who was sitting next to him, and thought that this person might as well dry himself out first.
He could guess Cao Xuan's purpose with his heels, so he ignored it for the time being.
"Come here, please invite all the Dharma protectors to come in!"
At this time, Tie Xiaosheng and Lu Jiuli in the hall both narrowed their eyes and realized that Chu Xisheng's true form had returned.
Bai Xiaozhao and Xiao Pingtou, who were left here by Chu Xisheng and were sleeping in the corner, also raised their heads and looked towards the main seat.
And just a moment later, a group of people filed in outside.
Crazy Sword Feng San came in first, followed by Ba Tian who came with the ‘one stick to determine the tone’.
He looked at Chu Xisheng from a distance, and then he held his hand with a rough and hearty look: "Flag Master, Mr. Ba fortunately lived up to his command. The Tiger Claw Branch of Xiuyun County resisted the gang rules and was unwilling to obey the punishment of the execution hall. He tried to resist, but Mr. Ba has already
Tiger Claw Division will kill all fifty-seven senior people from the helm below!"
The Tiger Claw Branch was originally the local Tiger Claw Gang. It also joined the Iron Flag Gang a few months ago and was renamed the Tiger Claw Branch.
The people at the helm of the Tiger Claw are actually quite obedient. Not only do they pay their monthly share in full, but they also do their best to do any errands that the chief helm has.
There is only one thing that should not be done. The Tiger Claw Gang used to run a private weapons smuggling business. After joining the Iron Flag Gang, it did not end. They actually sold a large number of weapons to the demon clan inside Yunmeng Mountain.
At this time, Feng Liancheng also strode in: "Feng did not disgrace his mission. Pan Jianye and Pan Jianjia have both confessed their crimes! In addition, Feng made the decision without permission and summoned a gang from Guangling County to watch the execution and killed two people in public.
people."
He looked at Chu Xisheng coldly, thinking that at this time, the Pan family must have hated the Iron Flag Gang to the core!
I wonder if Chu Xisheng will feel regret after learning about this?
At this time, Chu Xisheng felt that his body suddenly exploded, and his divine source of phaseless power was running rapidly, interacting with the chaos and phaseless method between heaven and earth.
This chapter has been completed!
