He didn't quite believe in Fa Kong's words, but he knew that Fa Kong's words would not come out of thin air and must be well-founded.
He secretly thought that Jiulong Peak might not harm him, it might just be Fakong's conjecture.
But the source of Jiulong Peak's power is from the void. This is true. Fa Kong can see this, which shows how powerful it is.
In this world, probably only Fakong can see it, and no one else can.
This is a power that transcends this world. It is completely different from Gang Qi and Spiritual Qi. No matter how strong the martial arts master is, it is useless because he cannot sense this power.
It's like people can't see ghosts.
Fa Kong can see it, obviously because he has profound Buddhist teachings, possesses magical powers, can cast Buddhist mantras, and can sense it with the help of Buddhist mantras.
Does the power above the void really have the power to infect the spirit?
If this is the case, it is indeed a bit dangerous. Over time, your mind will change unknowingly.
He thought for a moment and waved.
The middle-aged chamberlain came forward and bowed.
"Please come here, Xu Chong."
"yes."
The middle-aged chamberlain bowed again, stepped back down the steps, turned around and walked away.
Hu Lieyuan stood with his hands behind his hands, facing the wind and continuing to look at the nine peaks, his clothes being blown away.
The breeze blows gently on the face, neither cold nor hot, just right.
But he didn't feel comfortable at all, and his thick eyebrows were furrowed.
After a cup of tea, a middle-aged butler followed by an old man came.
The old man had white eyebrows and a long, slanted face. His body was so thin that it could be blown over by a gust of wind. He slowly walked up to the Star Observation Tower, moved closer, bowed and saluted: "Your Majesty."
"Old Xu." Hu Lieyuan said, "How are you doing lately?"
The old man sighed slowly and said slowly: "I can still survive for a while."
"Don't die, I'm going to use you." Hu Lieyuan said.
The old man Xu Taihe said weakly: "I am old and can no longer be driven. Your Majesty should choose someone more capable."
"You are my father's side, a veteran of two dynasties," Hu Lieyuan said: "There are some secrets that only you know."
Xu Taihe nodded slightly: "What do you want to ask, Your Majesty?"
Hu Lieyuan stretched out his hand and pointed in the distance.
Xu Taihe cast his gaze into the distance, then turned to look at Hu Lieyuan blankly.
Hu Lieyuan hummed: "Nine Dragon Peak."
Xu Taihe's eyes flashed.
Hu Lieyuan said: "Old Xu Qian really knows about Jiulong Peak."
"...Yes, I heard it from the late emperor." Xu Taihe hesitated for a moment and nodded slowly in reply.
"Have you ever seen the experts from Jiulong Peak?"
"...I've seen it."
"Very good." Hu Lieyuan said solemnly: "Do you know the martial arts methods of Jiulong Peak?"
"This..." Xu Taihe frowned in thought, thought for a while, and shook his head: "Jiulongfeng martial arts has its own lineage, and I have never seen it before."
Hu Lieyuan said: "Have you ever fought against them?"
Xu Taihe nodded.
"how?"
"Your Majesty means...?"
"Is there something strange about their Gang Qi?"
"...There is indeed something different." Xu Taihe nodded lightly: "The old man's cultivation is shallow, but he is vulnerable. He is worthy of being the Nine Dragon Peak that protects the royal family."
"Your cultivation level at that time has reached its peak, right?" Hu Lieyuan said, "It's rare in the world."
"Yes." Xu Taihe sighed: "I was very arrogant at that time and thought that the heroes in the world were just like this. After seeing the masters of Jiulong Peak, I realized that there is a world outside the world, and there are people outside the world."
"There is a sky outside the sky..." Hu Lieyuan whispered.
Xu Taihe was puzzled: "Your Majesty wants to find out the martial arts methods of Jiulong Peak?"
He was quite surprised. He didn't expect that Hu Lieyuan didn't know the martial arts methods of Jiulong Peak. Others didn't know it, but Hu Lieyuan, as the emperor, shouldn't know it.
"I didn't pay much attention to it at first." Hu Lieyuan said, "As long as you know that they are the force that secretly protects the royal family."
Xu Taihe nodded.
There are many worshipers in the palace, some from famous families, some from small families, and even some from unknown families.
As an emperor, it is impossible to know everyone's martial arts skills. He just knows a rough idea and can use it.
"But now, I'm starting to get curious." Hu Lieyuan said: "I discovered that no one knows the depth and details of Jiulong Peak."
Xu Taihe remained silent.
The power of Jiulong Peak is a secret among secrets. If I were not the late emperor's personal guard, I might not know it.
There are only one person in the world who knows about the existence of Jiulong Peak. Apart from himself and the emperor's personal bodyguard, he is also the emperor.
Maybe the Queen also knows about it, but I'm afraid I don't know about others.
It is better not to get involved in this kind of thing as it can easily lead to death. In order to keep it a secret, the best way is to keep it secret.
Hu Lieyuan said: "Since you have seen them and competed with them, let's do it again."
Xu Taihe looked at him puzzled.
Hu Lieyuan said: "I want to find out their methods and what they are practicing."
Xu Taihe said: "Your Majesty, if you want to know this, why not ask them directly? They won't refuse to tell you, right?"
Hu Lieyuan said in a deep voice: "I also want you to see what their character is."
Xu Taihe was puzzled.
His thoughts were racing, looking for Hu Lieyuan's true intention.
If you want to know the martial arts methods of Jiulong Peak, you only need to ask the masters of Jiulong Peak. You don't need to compete with them yourself.
What is the purpose of the emperor allowing himself to compete?
Not only to find out their path, but also to find out their nature of mind. Why is this so?
Could it be that... Jiulong Peak is unstable?
They were originally the most secretive guardian force, but now they have changed. The emperor no longer trusts them?
Why is there such a change?
It is impossible for the emperor to suspect them without reason. They must have done something or someone told the emperor something.
"You can mention me to them." Hu Lieyuan said lightly: "Look at their mood changes."
Xu Taihe frowned: "Your Majesty, they can't use it anymore?"
Hu Lieyuan said: "We still have to take a look. I can't accept one side of the story. I have to find out. Don't wrong them and break your own arms."
Xu Taihe suddenly realized that someone said something.
He did not ask who this person was. The person who could persuade Hu Lieyuan was definitely not an ordinary person. It was better not to ask, so he said: "I understand."
Hu Lieyuan said: "Go, go and come back quickly."
Xu Taihe thought for a while and said in a deep voice: "I will tell them that I want to find out the real gap with Jiulong Peak before I die."
"Yeah, that's fine." Hu Lieyuan nodded.
Xu Taihe was a martial arts fanatic. He stayed in the Forbidden Palace all his life and had almost no interest in worldly affairs. He only focused on cultivation and pursued diligently.
He is the strongest person in the entire palace, especially because he has a pure mind and the most sensitive senses, and can sense their emotional changes.
If the Jiulong Peak master really had murderous intentions towards him, Xu Taihe would definitely be able to sense it, and then he would know whether what Fakong said was true or false.
An hour later, Xu Taihe was carried to Hu Lieyuan.
He was lying on the Arhat bed, his face was like gold paper, his breathing was rapid, his eyes were dim and out of focus, and he was dying, with only one breath left.
When he came to Hu Lieyuan, he seemed to feel something, his eyes quickly condensed, and his spirit lifted up at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Hu Lieyuan's face was gloomy, suppressing his anger, he shouted: "Did they do it?"
Xu Taihe smiled to himself: "Your Majesty, I went to the easternmost peak and fought against a master, and survived twelve moves."
"They were so cruel!"
Xu Taihe took a look around.
Hu Lieyuan waved his hand.
All the servants and guards left the Humble Administrator's Hall.
There were only two of them left in the huge hall.
Xu Taihe's lips moved, but he didn't hear the sound. Instead, he used the method of transmitting sound into the secret, which was only transmitted to Hu Lieyuan.
Hu Lieyuan's face became increasingly gloomy and he nodded slowly.
After Xu Taihe said this, his face quickly turned gray, and his spirit dimmed at a speed visible to the naked eye, as if an oil lamp that had run out of oil was quickly extinguished.
