"What a mistake! I didn't expect Cang Shoufu to be willing to give you the authentic work. It seems that he attaches great importance to Mu Feng!"
Yun Zhe looked at the shadow of the old man in front of Ning Tianlu with fear.
Just now, the old man's flick of the sword was extremely powerful. Even if the five of them joined forces, they were all at a disadvantage.
"Yunzhe! I advise you to return from your lost ways and release Mu Feng. Then the six of you will follow me and surrender. Maybe the cabinet and His Majesty will be lenient to you!"
Ning Tianlu said in a low voice.
"Haha! Surrender yourself?
Ning Tianlu, are you kidding me?
Originally I didn’t intend to kill you, but now that you have seen our true appearance, there is nothing we can do, we have no choice but to kill and silence you!”
Yunzhe spoke slowly, with murderous intent in his eyes.
Duan Weng also sneered and said: "Ning Tianlu! You are seeking death yourself. I know that you have the authentic relic of Cang Shoufu in your hand, but this authentic relic is not a real one. After you use it a few more times, the one in your hand will become useless."
Paper! And when that time comes, it will be your death!"
Ning Tianlu snorted coldly, pinched the secret in his hand, and pointed at the scroll in his palm. He saw a mysterious golden light pouring out of the scroll and pouring into the old man's shadow.
"One sword lights up nineteen continents!"
The old man held his phantom in the air, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured into his palm, turning into a golden sword, and immediately slashed at Yunzhe, Duan Weng and others in the air.
When the sword was slashed out, the blade instantly extended, as if it had penetrated the sky, and slashed down hard.
The expressions of Yunzhe, Duan Weng and others changed completely. They burst out of the imperial domain, sacrificed their imperial soldiers, and collided with the golden sword that stretched across the sky and slashed down.
Immediately, the five people screamed and were suppressed directly to the ground, making five huge potholes.
Bang bang bang! Yunzhe, Duan Weng and the other five people soared into the sky again. Immediately, they were shocked to find that the phantom of the old man had not yet dispersed. He was holding a golden sword and was coming through the air. The target was the five of them.
The five of them joined forces and fought with the old man's shadow. Terrifying energy ripples erupted in the void, spreading like water waves across tens of thousands of miles in the void.
The golden shadow of the old man was extremely powerful. Facing Yunzhe, the five powerful men at the peak of the third-level Martial Emperor, he remained unmoved. Instead, he completely suppressed the five of them.
From a distance, you can see Yunzhe and the other five being knocked away time and time again, getting up in embarrassment again and again, their injuries becoming more and more serious.
"what happened?
Why hasn’t this Cang Shoufu’s real work collapsed yet? It’s already half a stick of incense!”
Yunzhe jumped up from the deep pit on the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and looked at the shadow of the old man who was still fighting with the other four people in front of him, his eyes filled with fear.
He had seen situations where Cang Hongshen's authentic artifacts given to others were used against enemies. Cang Hongshen's authentic artifacts were indeed very powerful. The moment he sacrificed the authentic artifacts, most Martial Emperors might not be their opponents.
However, the duration of the original work is also very short. The power inside can only be used about three times, and the original work will be completely turned into waste paper and will no longer have any mysterious power.
But now, the authentic artifact in Ning Tianlu's hand has been used not only three times, but thirty times, but it does not disappear, it does not collapse, and it has always remained strong.
"Walk!"
Yunzhe's eyes showed unwillingness, and he took out a bright yellow talisman and held it out. The complex runes inside the talisman swept out and wrapped him in it. In an instant, he disappeared from the spot.
After Yunzhe left, the others also used the same talismans and disappeared one after another.
"It's the Wanli Wutang Talisman! These guys are really rich, and everyone actually has such a talisman!"
Teng Gen came to Ning Tianlu's side and looked at the six disappearing figures, his expression became unsightly.
The Ten Thousand Miles Without Trace Talisman is an emperor-level talisman. Using this talisman, its speed will reach extremely terrifying levels. In three breaths, it can span tens of thousands of miles or even more than 100,000 miles.
Moreover, the activation time of this talisman is very short, and it can be activated instantly, which is much stronger than many low-level escape talismans.
"Mufeng was kidnapped by them, we must return to the Holy City quickly!"
Ning Tianlu's eyes were full of unwillingness. He took out the jade slip, sent a message to Cang Hongshen, and hurriedly left here with Teng Gen.
Sacred city, inside the central imperial court, cabinet.
Cang Hongshen was reviewing the memorial with other academicians.
"Old Qi! Please help me review the reports on floods from the nine southern governments in the inner region to see if there are any problems!"
"Yu Luan! Please help me review this battle report on the northern frontier!"
"..." Cang Hongshen assigned the piles of memorials in front of the case to other bachelors in an orderly manner, and he re-read the memorials that other bachelors had reviewed and proofread them for any errors or omissions.
.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Cang Hong frowned slightly, and the jade message slip on his waist shone brightly. He knew that someone had sent him a message.
There was something strange in his heart. This time period was usually when he was reviewing memorials. Most people who were familiar with him should know his schedule. Normally no one would send him a message at this time.
But now someone has sent it to him. Is there something important?
Cang Hong hesitated for a while, then picked up the message slip and found that it was a message sent to him by Ning Tianlu, which gave him a vague premonition.
When he opened the jade slip and checked the message, even though he was as calm as he was, his expression changed.
Although the other five bachelors were reviewing the memorials, they occasionally paid attention to Cang Hongshen from the corner of their eyes. Now they found that Cang Hongshen was so rude after reading the jade slip, and they were all curious about Cang Hongshen's collection.
What kind of news has arrived?
"Sir, Chief Assistant! What happened?"
Yu Luan, the great scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, asked.
Cang Hongshen put away the jade slip and said in a low voice: "Ning Tianlu was attacked on the way! Mu Feng was snatched away!"
"What?"
The remaining five bachelors were shocked. They did not expect that Ning Tianlu would be attacked on the way, and that the young master they valued so much would be snatched away.
"Who did it?
He actually dared to attack and kill the imperial official, did he want to kill the nine tribes?"
Dongge University Scholar Xiang Rui said indignantly.
The other bachelors were also angry. Someone was so bold that they dared to attack and kill the imperial officials, and also kidnapped a peerless genius that their cabinet was very optimistic about.
This is provoking their cabinet! "They are from the Sixth Ministry!"
Cang Hong said in a deep voice.
"What?
He's actually from the Sixth Department?
Is this absolutely true?"
Qi Yan, the great scholar of Jianji Palace who was originally taciturn, suddenly spoke.
"It can't be wrong! Ning Tianlu saw it with his own eyes. They are Duan Weng, the left minister of the Ministry of Rites, Yunzhe, the left minister of the Ministry of Personnel, Qiu Jun, the right minister of the Ministry of Household Affairs, Zhu Si, the left minister of the Ministry of War, and Dai Zhuohe, the left minister of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs.
Lin Luo, the left minister of the Ministry of Industry!"
Cang Hong said in a deep voice.
"The Sixth Department is really shameless. He actually openly attacked the Hanlin bachelors of our Hanlin Academy and snatched the people escorted by our cabinet. He really thinks that my cabinet is easy to bully! Today I am going to the Sixth Department to theory!"
Zhong Wei, the Grand Scholar of Wuying Palace, had a hot temper. When he heard that people from the Sixth Department were responsible, he became angry and wanted to rush to the Sixth Department to make a big fuss. Fortunately, he was stopped by other bachelors.
"You all don't go, let me go!"
Cang Hongshen said calmly.
"Sir, Chief Assistant! Do you want to go to the Sixth Department in person?"
Dongge University Scholar asked in surprise.
Cang Hongshen shook his head and said: "No! I will go directly to the Palace of the Five Emperors. I want to meet His Majesty the Five Emperors in person!"
With that said, Cang Hongshen walked away, leaving only five bachelors present with dull faces...
