[Cao Changqing, from "The Fighting Sword in the Snow".
Respected as Cao Guanzi, he has been ranked among the top three martial arts critics for many years and is known as the invincible finalist.
After the Western Chu was destroyed, Cao Changqing entered Tai'an City three times and the palace twice over the years, and was only one step away from assassinating Emperor Liyang.
He wanted to find the princess of Western Chu and restore the country, but he didn't know that the princess Jiang Ni was beside Xu Fengnian. Known as "the one who monopolizes the celestial phenomena and the eight battles of romance", he asked the white-clothed monk Li Dangxin to compile a new calendar in Liangchan Temple to leave a chance for Xichu.
Later, Jiang Ni was taken away from Xu Fengnian. He became a Confucian sage in Xilebi, secretly contacted the survivors of Western Chu to build momentum for the restoration of the country, and made a promise to win over Gu Jiantang to help the Central Plains. The restoration of the country was only to prove that Sejia was not a disaster for Western Chu.
.
Before his death, he was in the land of gods and humans, and changed from Confucianism to Taoism, and his combat power was the first among the four great masters at that time.】
Cao Changqing is also one of the five Shangzhu Kingdoms, and is the commander-in-chief of the Human World Army among the Six Paths Army.
Compared to Liu Zhengtang, who only held the honorary title of Shangzhu Kingdom, the weight of his standing up at this moment was extraordinary.
In particular, he defeated the two Hidden Dragon Envoys in an understatement, which shocked the three elders in the enshrinement hall.
But now when faced with Emperor Xuan's questioning, he did not act too unruly like Liu Zhengtang. Instead, his eyes were filled with a sense of grievance after being let down.
"Your Majesty, are you sure you want to abdicate?"
"Cao Changqing! I am asking you whether you want to associate with this criminal!"
The moment the two people's eyes met, Jade Emperor, who had been showing unprecedented dominance, suddenly sighed helplessly.
"Forget it, forget it this time."
"Your Majesty!" Cao Changqing suddenly took a step forward, his eyes full of stubbornness, "I don't care about your promises to the other four Shangzhu Kingdoms. I even think that once these promises are fulfilled, it will be the real way to cause disaster!
I just want to know whether your ambitions were still the same on that night when you and I were talking about the world plan!
Also, in this passing of the throne, is there someone behind the scenes who is causing trouble?"
The moment his voice fell, the two Hidden Dragon Users whose wrists were crushed just now suddenly attacked him. The two of them took a moment to react, and instead of killing the chicken to scare the monkeys, the other party used their little face.
I stepped on it again!
Even though both Hidden Dragon Envoys were in a state of heavenly suppression, they were still dissatisfied with being repelled so easily!
After all, when it comes to the strength of these outer messengers, even if they are judged to be on the side of the Daxuan Dynasty, these hidden dragon messengers are the most suppressed by heaven. If they encounter the various rampant Murong Fu yesterday, in a one-on-one situation, they will
Can kill it!
So after realizing that Cao Changqing, who had repelled them, was in the middle stage of Dharma Realm, they decisively decided to save face on the spot!
Even to be on the safe side, the two Hidden Dragon Envoys standing in the Hidden Dragon Hall team, a total of four people, chose to join forces to attack!
boom--!
In an instant, a sudden wave of air knocked back all the ministers, but with the impact of this remaining energy, the strength of these ministers present could also be seen.
For example, Li Taike and the six pavilion elders waved their sleeves casually, causing the surrounding space to instantly distort, and easily and comfortably eliminated the turmoil. The other four Shangzhu Kingdom's response methods also seemed to be inconsistent.
Effortless.
Directly activate the Gangqi shield to block the impact head-on.
On the side of the enshrinement hall, Qi Lianhua stood up, flicked his fingers, and turned an invisible sword force into a barrier, blocking all the sand and dust that swept towards him.
After that, people like Cao Zhengchun, Han Diaosi, Lu Yulou, Li Qianshou and others also used their own methods. Although they felt much more serious in dealing with them than the strong ones in front, at least they would not be covered by the dust.
The embarrassment was highlighted on this solemn occasion.
As for the only four great masters present, Nie Yunhua's strength was obviously not enough, but he got close to the disciples of the school very cunningly, and used his help to save the remaining face of the six sects.
At the same time, Jade Emperor Tian, who was above the thirty-three-level step, sighed deeply.
Speaking of which, in order to control the Six Paths Army and ensure that he had a certain amount of support, he did make various offers to the Wuxun Group, such as the promises he made to the five upper pillar countries.
It is said that at the right time, it will be divided out.
As beings that were once used to check and balance the eight aristocratic families, they were the most hostile to these eight aristocratic families, and at the same time they were also the most envious and longing for them.
After all, the owner of these eight states is said to be the Daxuan Dynasty, but in fact, in terms of control, they belong to the eight great families.
Although the state pastors appointed later also had the power to recruit troops, it seemed to a certain extent to limit the possibility of the eight aristocratic families becoming emperors. However, the truth is that these state pastors either collaborated with the local aristocratic families or were ruined.
Including the eight major aristocratic families today, they seem to be disabled and dead.
Its local influence cannot be ignored.
For example, the Southwest Prefecture of Gui City was included in its territory. Its original owner was the Xie family of Zi Nong, but because Yu Cangmiao caught him off guard, the whole family was killed. As a result, the Xie family has not really shown its true potential.
The most powerful aspect of his family's connections has completely disappeared from the stage of competition for hegemony.
However, the death of the Xie family in Zi Nong does not mean that everything has calmed down.
For example, the Zi Nong Xie family's secret ambush in the early years is now taking advantage of the outbreak of the rat tide to initiate some small acts of civil strife.
Because of this, Qin Fan did not mobilize the troops stationed in the three southern states. Even the Quxi Yuan clan had to help Yuan Suiyun, who was the state pastor, to watch the southwest state capital that might be in chaos at any time.
The previous discussion about allowing the Huanjia Fang family to move to the Southwest Prefecture was also based on the idea of using the family's methods to deal with the troubles left by the family.
Closer to home, the terrifying influence of the eight great families and their control over the local area is the next goal of these five upper pillar countries. However, it is also due to the restrictions of the seventeenth Emperor Xuan that the five upper pillar countries are not allowed to enfeoff the eight.
State rules.
This also resulted in the fact that these five major families could suppress the eight major families in the imperial city, but once they left Zhongxuan Province, they could only live with their tail between their legs.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! So if you want to break the rules, only another Xuan Emperor lifts this ban.
It is also because of grasping the most desired pursuits of the five upper pillars of the national clans that the Jade Emperor's talent is clearly at the level of a minister who is strong and a king who is weak, but he firmly holds the power of the general in his hands.
This is also the reason why Liu Zhengtang showed such a gaffe when it came to the Jade Emperor's passing.
After all, not every Xuan Emperor dares to overturn the prohibition of their ancestors. In addition, the eight major aristocratic families are now in the weakest state in the past two thousand years. If the five major pillar countries do not attack, they will not even be able to eat hot food.
However, not every Shangzhu country thinks this way.
Just like Cao Changqing.
He is a loyal minister who is dedicated to the country, and his goal is to consolidate the royal power of King Wuwei and annihilate the ten northern barbarian kings who have been eyeing the north. This weakness was easily grasped by Jade Emperor.
And in front of him, he fully demonstrated his side as an eternal wise king.
And with his talents, if he wanted to govern the country well, it would not be a difficult task. Even without Qin Fan's intervention, he would have a great chance of killing Yu and ignoring it.
But the key point was that he had long seen through the nature of the Daxuan Dynasty, and knew in advance that there was a world outside the sky.
Therefore, in his view, this imperial position has become a prison that restricts his pursuit of immortality. No matter how well the Daxuan Dynasty is managed, it will be useless. After a few decades, it will be nothing more than a handful of loess.
So he hit it off with Yu Cangmiao, who was also restless, and he didn't mind showing his cowardly side in the court. Everything was prepared for today.
But he still felt a little guilty about Cao Changqing.
"Your Majesty, it seems that these hidden dragon envoys are no match for this official Cao without unblocking them."
It was the young eunuch who spoke, and there was a hint of eagerness to try in his brows. According to the original book, Cao Changqing failed to assassinate the emperor several times, or it could be said that this was an impossible thing.
Ultimately, it was because of this young eunuch.
The fate between the two people has been entangled for a long time. Even if it is not as dangerous as a fatal disaster, a battle is inevitable.
After hearing the young eunuch's words, Jade Emperor Tian also calmed down his agitated mood, and then looked at the four hidden dragon envoys who were being chased and beaten by Cao Changqing.
When Cao Changqing fired a domineering punch, Jade Emperor's pupils shrank slightly and said:
"Is this... a space rule? It feels a little wrong."
"It is a fellow practitioner of civil and martial arts. He should have received the experience of the original master from Confucianism to domineering. By drawing on the cultural and Taoist system, he fully understood the rules of space and then integrated it into his own boxing technique."
The young eunuch was also a little emotional.
Wen Dao practitioners are the most slippery with their control over space, but they lack the characteristics of high burst and high endurance compared to warriors. Now Cao Changqing not only has the tyranny of warriors, but also fully integrates Wen Dao's rules of space.
application.
On the field, he almost transformed into four bodies by one person, completely dividing the four Hidden Dragon Users into fighting around the battlefield, without giving them a chance to join forces.
"At this point, all I need is an answer."
A white chess piece suddenly appeared in Cao Changqing's hand, and the moment he threw it into the sky, a phantom of a chessboard with nineteen lanes covered the sky and the earth, and the four Hidden Dragon Envoys instantly became frozen.
Facing the four black chess pieces that had been shot towards his door, he couldn't even dodge them!
In his eyes, a sunspot seemed to fill the entire world, crashing towards him like a mountain that crushed the world!
Boom——!X4
Explosions exploded in all directions, and immediately after Cao Changqing put away the white pieces that fell from the cracks in the sky, the four of them vomited blood and flew backwards to where the remaining two Hidden Dragon Envoys were.
Then Cao Changqing didn't even look at the situation of the Hidden Dragon Envoys. Instead, he walked to the Thirty-Three Heavenly Stage again and saluted with a solemn expression:
"Your Majesty, I am bold enough to ask you for an explanation!"
"Your Majesty, so do I!" Liu Zhengtang also stood up at this time. Although he realized that Cao Changqing and him may not be the same kind of people, but they are both from the Shangzhu Kingdom, and then the other party defeated the four Hidden Dragon Envoys, he also
You must first take off the hat that Jade Emperor put on your head just now!
"I would like to ask you what crime I am guilty of!"
Jade Emperor looked at the stubborn Cao Changqing with a headache at first. After giving a look to the young eunuch on the side, the other person's figure disappeared instantly, and then there was a loud sound, and the two figures had appeared in Gao Tian.
superior.
And just when the ministers thought they had to wait for another fight to end.
Jade Emperor opened his mouth and said.
"Oh...what do you think?"
The question he asked was Liu Zhengtang. At this moment, his eyes no longer had the entanglement he had when facing Cao Changqing. What was left in his eyes was calm, indifferent, and a kind of indifference.
This look also completely angered Liu Zhengtang. You must know that in his impression, Yuhuangtian was just a useless emperor who relied on empty promises to drive their five major kingdoms and could barely gain a foothold in this imperial city.
Especially when it was reported a few days ago that Empress Xuan had an affair with an outsider!
A man who can't even look down on his wife can no longer be described as a waste!
Of course, from his point of view, he naturally hopes that the Jade Emperor will become as useless as possible, but now he looks at this useless person looking at him with such eyes as if he were an ant.
He couldn't help but sneer.
"Hehehehe, there is no need to hesitate to accuse him!
I only know that the person who is hailed as a sinner by Your Majesty is the pillar of the entire dynasty!
This time His Majesty went his own way and did not inform any of his ministers before. Does this also indicate that everyone present is not worthy of trust, and can even be said to be guilty ministers!
In other words, they are all traitors!
Hahahahahaha, you are a traitor!"
Liu Zhengtang first pointed at Li Taike, who was the prime minister.
"You, you, you are traitors too!"
Then he pointed to the six pavilion elders standing behind him who looked at his nose with his eyes and his heart with his nose.
"And you, you are all traitors!"
Liu Zhengtang let out a shocking laugh, and the arrogance in his eyes was gradually filled with madness. His eyes were red and his breathing became more rapid.
He looked at the Jade Emperor who was standing on the thirty-third level and had no talent but controlled the entire world.
He then looked at the Hidden Dragon Envoys who looked like a pack of helpless rats. In his opinion, the face and nobility of the so-called Heavenly Outer Envoys were not as worthy of attention as a third-grade official.
He felt the hot blood rushing to his chest, and the crazy thoughts that emerged in his mind made him shout:
"The pillars of the country are the pillars of the country, and the aristocratic family is the foundation of the country.
Now that the aristocratic family no longer exists, Zhu Guo has been demoted as a criminal and rebellious official!
This is betraying Daxuan and the whole world!
Hahahaha, you want to pass on the throne, right? Then stand up for me and destroy this foolish king together!"
His voice echoed in front of the sacrificial altar, shocking the officials who originally just wanted to watch a good show!
It was also because of his words that Dugu Qiubei, who had reached the limit of his patience, drew his sword!
It was a sword light that seemed to cut through the sky, directly shattering the shoulder blades of Liu Zhengtang, who was getting more and more arrogant!
Seeing that only one person took action, Liu Zhengtang's expression became more and more fanatical. He burst out with an aura that was just a hair away from breaking through the Dharma Realm. After burning his life force, a blurry black figure gradually appeared behind him.
!
"Jade Emperor, I am the Shangzhu Kingdom, and I will bring order to the world today!"
Its speed reached the extreme at this moment. Dugu Qiubai wanted to intercept it, but was restrained in place by a terrifying pressure.
"You said, I have turned my back on the world?"
The majestic power of merit condensed into a five-clawed golden dragon behind Jade Emperor Tian, and one of its claws was tightly squeezing Liu Zhengtang's head!
Then a sneer, accompanied by the sound of broken heads, resounded throughout the sky.
The flying five-clawed golden dragon cast a shadow over the entire sky. The kind and slightly cowardly face in the past revealed a domineering and willful appearance that the ministers had never seen before.
"Joke, I, is the world."
Jade Emperor Tian's voice began to echo, and in an instant, the heaven and earth became silent, and the whole world seemed to have lost its color.
