The dark clouds slanted down half the moon, passing through thousands of wave barriers, and the heavy wind filled the building.
"Son."
At midnight, when Wei Changtian walked step by step from the end of the stone road to the door of the palace, there was no trace of moonlight in the night sky, and the dark clouds were rolling in as if it was going to rain.
Stepping forward to greet him, Li Zimu saluted with his hands and said softly:
"There are forty-three people in total, all inside."
"Well, there are quite a few."
Wei Changtian kept walking forward: "How long have they been waiting?"
"Go back to me, sir."
Li Zimu followed closely behind: "Two hours."
"It's hard for them."
Wei Changtian smiled, not knowing whether he was joking or if he really felt that the people in the palace had been wronged.
The corners of his clothes rustled in the wind as he walked through the long stone steps step by step and stood outside the main hall door.
The surroundings were dark and empty, not even one of the Ouchi guards who were everywhere in the palace could be seen.
You must know that there are forty-three masters from various forces waiting in the palace at this moment, and everyone has their own thoughts and calculations.
But what is clear is that no matter what purpose these people come with, they will definitely not do anything tonight.
Just because the person they are waiting for is Wei Changtian.
"..."
He didn't say anything, he just looked up at the dark clouds filling the sky, and then the palace door slowly opened to both sides.
Li Zimu lowered his head and took a step back, his figure disappearing into the darkness.
Wei Changtian, on the other hand, stepped over the threshold with an expressionless face and walked into the hall in the dim light.
"Wow..."
The sound of clothing rubbing together is very light and consistent.
The forty-three people who had been waiting in the hall stood up almost at the same time, all looking in the same direction, and no one spoke.
They all had their faces covered, and their exposed eyes stared at Wei Changtian silently, even breathing carefully.
The latter did not look at anyone, but walked slowly and slowly to the front.
Then turn around.
"Everyone, I've been waiting for a long time."
"..."
The calm voice was like falling into a quagmire, echoing repeatedly in this oppressive silence.
The next second, a zigzag lightning cut through the night, and the entire hall suddenly flickered, and the pale electric light illuminated a tense face.
"boom!!!"
The roar of thunder comes slightly slower than the lightning.
It's raining.
...
...
"Crack!"
The heavy rain came so quickly, as if it covered the whole world under a majestic curtain of rain in just an instant.
The strong wind and rain kept washing every corner of the palace. A few fallen leaves that had not been swept were struggling in the waves, and then they were trampled to pieces by a passing patrolling imperial army.
Raindrops pattered against the palace door, and Li Zimu stood in the rain curtain, his whole body soaked by the rain.
However, her expression did not change at all, and she was still waiting outside the palace door motionless.
Even if she only needs to walk a few steps, she can hide in the eaves of the palace.
With calm and indifferent eyes, Li Zimu knew very well that what happened in the palace at this moment would completely change the fate of many people, and might even push the world into a "crazy" future.
Yes.
Even though no one else had guessed it, Li Zimu had already guessed what Wei Changtian was going to do.
To be honest, she didn't think it was the right thing to do.
At the very least, she felt this was too radical.
But since Wei Changtian had already decided, Li Zimu did it without hesitation, just like every time before.
No matter what the consequences are.
...
"Everyone."
In the hall, Wei Changtian's voice was still calm, still clear amid the raging rain.
His eyes swept across the forty-three masked men in front of him, and he suddenly smiled.
"You must have had a hard time checking me these days."
"..."
As expected, Wei Changtian did not receive any response.
His expression didn't change at all, and even the smile was still on the corner of his mouth.
"Of course, I don't know what you found."
"But with your methods and the forces behind you, I think you should have found everything that can be found."
"And those things that haven't been found out are what you want to know the most...I can tell you personally tonight."
In the eyes of everyone who suddenly became surprised, Wei Changtian just paused for a moment and then slowly uttered six words.
"For example, the Moon Sword."
"..."
"boom!!!"
Another muffled thunder exploded in the night sky, and the shadows of several candlesticks were stretched very long, and then disappeared when the lightning was annihilated.
Pairs of eyes suddenly widened, and everyone's face curtains shook with their heavy and rapid breathing.
"Actually, you guessed it right."
Looking down at the white stone ground under his feet, Wei Changtian did not show off, but directly told the answer that might be the answer that everyone wanted to know most at the moment.
"The Moon Sword can indeed help practitioners break through to the first level."
"And, everyone can."
"..."
Time in the palace seemed to have stopped for a second.
Even though everyone except Wei Changtian was surrounded by a veil, the extremely shocked expressions on everyone's face at this moment seemed to be felt without even looking.
"Wei, Mr. Wei, are you serious about this?!"
Finally, someone couldn't help but blurt out and asked: "Is this really the way to break through the realm?!"
"Isn't that what you guys guessed?"
Wei Changtian glanced at the man and said with a smile: "What? Now that I told you, you don't believe it?"
"I......"
The speaker was stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
And Wei Changtian didn't care about him anymore, just minding his own business and continued:
"Not just the Moon Sword."
"Those thirteen sons of heaven and thirteen fortunes of heaven may be able to break the shackles of the first rank."
"Of course, this matter has not been confirmed yet, and it may take some time to find out whether it is true or not."
"As for the method of using the Moon Sword, with my grandpa in front, you should have already judged whether it is true or not."
"Everyone, I know what you are thinking at this moment."
"Since you have found out some things, I will simply explain them to you."
"Today, there are only two people in the world who have practiced the Moon Sword and are still alive."
"Except for my grandpa..."
"The only one left is me."
"Boom! Boom boom boom!!!"
Several huge thunders exploded one after another, and the heavy rain outside the window became even bigger, crashing into the main hall like wild waves.
The forty-three masked men stared at Wei Changtian with wide eyes. Apart from being shocked, there was also an inexplicable hint of fear in their hearts.
Normally, it should be a good thing for them that Wei Changtian took the initiative to say this tonight.
But the problem is... they don't know why Wei Changtian did this.
The fingers trembled slightly, and everyone felt as if there was an abyss in front of them that could swallow everything, a huge conspiracy.
If tonight's events ended here, then maybe they wouldn't fall into this abyss.
But at the next moment, Wei Changtian's terrifyingly calm voice sounded in the hall again.
"Everyone."
"Three days later, I will hand over the first half of the Moon-Chasing Sword Book to each of you, and then..."
"boom!!!"
This time, thunder exploded in the ears, and everyone was completely plunged into this unprecedented "fighting".
"Find out the person who first leaked information about the Son of Heaven!"
"Find my grandpa!"
"Find out the Chu Xianping who followed me before and then betrayed me!"
"Everyone, listen clearly!"
"As long as someone can do any of the above three things!"
"I will give him the second half of the sword manual! It's absolutely true!"
