Yuezhou is the largest state in the Yue Kingdom. In one state, there are more martial arts families than in the other ten states combined.
Therefore, since Tianshu Wuyuan only occupies one state in Yuezhou, it is also known as the first academy in Yue State.
The master of the academy, Wang Daoshu, is the first of the four great masters of the Yue Kingdom, Gao Jianming's best friend, the top powerhouse in the Yue Kingdom, and is known as the number one master under the Yue King. He is known as the most promising King of Martial in the Yue Kingdom.
one of the candidates.
At this moment, deep inside the Tianshu Martial Academy.
Gao Jianming was discussing with Wang Daoshu.
After listening to Gao Jian's clear words, Wang Daoshu stood up and said: "I have been greatly favored by your majesty. Now that your majesty is in danger and the country is worried, I should do my best to help the eldest prince ascend the throne and become king, so that your majesty's inheritance will not be lost."
It’s in the hands of outsiders, brother Gao, don’t worry, Wang will definitely be there for the enthronement ceremony tomorrow.”
Gao Jianming also stood up, patted Wang Daoshu's arm and said, "Okay! Brother Wang, our many years of friendship are not in vain!"
Wang Dao wrote: "Brother Gao is wrong. I don't like to get involved in royal affairs. This move is purely to repay His Majesty's kindness, not because of our personal relationship."
Gao Jianming smiled and said: "Brother Wang is very righteous! No matter what the reason is, just come here tomorrow. I will thank Brother Wang on behalf of the eldest prince and say goodbye!"
…
Chu family.
The second prince Nie Wangji rushed back to the Chu family in a hurry.
"Hello, Second Prince."
"See the Second Prince."
…
Everyone in the Chu family saluted Nie Wangji when they saw him.
Nie Wangji turned a deaf ear and rode Mo Lin's horse in a hurry, heading straight to the depths of the Chu family's mansion and Chu Lingfeng's mansion.
As soon as Nie Wangji saw Chu Lingfeng, he bowed down and said, "Uncle! The Nie family is in trouble. Wangji came to ask uncle for help!"
Chu Lingfeng quickly helped Nie Wangji up and said: "Wangji, I already know about the affairs of the First Prince's Mansion. Lin Xuan is far stronger than me. I'm afraid I'm powerless!"
Nie Wangji took out Nie Renji's letter from his arms and said, "Please uncle, please read it."
Chu Lingfeng took the letter and read it, his eyes lit up and he said: "Gao Jianming, Xu Youshen, Xu Hongyi, Fang Xingyuan, Nie Xiangqian, and Wang Daoshu? Well...since the eldest prince can invite so many Half-step Martial Kings,
Lin Xuan and Wei Cangsheng will be in trouble tomorrow. I can go tomorrow, but you must agree to one condition."
Nie Wangji said: "Uncle, please tell me."
Chu Lingfeng said: "After the eldest prince ascends the throne, the Shenwu Guards will be abolished."
Nie Wangji said: "That's for sure. Gao Jianming also mentioned that my brother Wang has this intention."
Chu Lingfeng said: "That's good, I will definitely stand with the Nie family tomorrow."
…
Fang family.
It is the grandfather's house of the third prince Nie Daoji.
Nie Daoji also took the eldest prince's letter and found Fang Xingyuan, the half-step martial arts king of the Fang family.
Fang Xingyuan is Concubine Fang’s seventh uncle.
"Seventh Grandpa, this is my eldest brother's letter. Please read it?" Nie Daoji handed the eldest prince's letter into Fang Xingyuan's hands.
Fang Xingyuan took the letter, opened it, and nodded lightly.
After collecting the letter, Fang Xingyuan said: "I have a condition. Please tell it to the eldest prince. If he agrees, I will definitely help you tomorrow."
Nie Daoji said: "Grandpa Qi, please tell me."
Fang Xingyuan said: "Wang Huchen's investigation into the Happy Valley case has hurt many people in our Fang family. After the eldest prince ascends the throne, I want Wang Huchen to be buried with him and his family will be confiscated and exterminated."
In the Happy Valley case, even the third prince Nie Daoji was severely punished by Nie Qingcang, and he was suffocating with anger in his heart.
Nie Daoji said: "This is what it should be. My eldest brother intends to remove the Shenwu Guards. When he ascends the throne, he will first remove the Shenwu Guards and then confiscate Wang Huchen's family and exterminate his clan. It will be easy."
Fang Xingyuan nodded and said: "I want the real answer from the eldest prince, so go ahead!"
…
Qianwangfu.
The Nie family is half a step away from the residence of King Wu Nie Xiangqian.
The eldest prince Nie Renji arrived in person and invited Nie Xiangqian to take action.
Nie Xiangqian is a loose and idle king, but because he has half the strength of a martial king, he still has a decisive position.
Nie Renji came to visit and promised to entrust Nie Xiangqian with important tasks, and the two hit it off.
Nie Xiangqian promised that he would fight for the Nie family tomorrow.
…
Time is like running water.
All forces spent the night busy.
When the sky turns white, a new day arrives.
The day of the enthronement ceremony has arrived.
Dongzhen Fusi.
Lin Xuan looked at Ye Taishan and said: "Master Ye, you still stay in Dongzhen Fusi."
Ye Taishan was in high spirits and said: "With all the excitement today, I also want to go to the enthronement ceremony. Besides...if Nie Renji invites too many Banbu Wu kings, I can also help you hold off a few of them."
Lin Xuan shook his head and said: "Unless he can invite dozens of half-step Martial Kings,... more or less, to me... there is no difference."
Lin Xuan looked at his people and said: "The only thing I am worried about is my family members. They are Nie Renji's only chance to break through the defense line in my heart. Without King Banbu Wu guarding me, I feel uneasy. Ye Si Lord, your ability to sit here and keep my rear area from chaos is your greatest achievement."
Ye Taishan nodded and said: "Okay, the overall situation is more important. Xiaoyou Lin, go ahead with peace of mind. With me here, who wants to touch your family unless you step over my body, Ye Taishan, first."
Mo Feifan also said: "Most of our Shenwu guards in Dongzhen Fusi will stay in the mansion to ensure the safety of the mansion."
Lin Xuan nodded, looked at Wei Cangsheng, and said, "Let's go! Meet with the commanders from each state."
…
Yue Jing.
Outside the palace.
The commanders of the Shenwu Guards, wearing dragon claw uniforms, gathered here.
The Dayue Dynasty was divided into thirty-four prefectures. Except for Yue Prefecture, which was under the direct jurisdiction of the four major towns and fusi, the other thirty-three prefectures all had a commander.
A total of twenty-four people were present, and nine commanders were not present.
These people were all contacted by Wang Huchen through secret messages. Those who came naturally followed the orders and stood with Lin Xuan and Wei Cangsheng.
Lin Xuan and Wei Cangsheng arrived with some of the Shenwu Guards from Dongzhen Fusi. The twenty-four commanders stepped forward and clasped their fists together: "Master of the Wei Division, Mr. Lin Xuan."
Lin Xuan looked at the crowd, and there were only two among them who had met him before - Wang Huchen and Xie Xuanzhi.
Wei Cangsheng was very familiar with every commander. Seeing that nine people were missing, his expression was slightly sad.
The nine future commanders obviously do not have a firm stance.
Wei Cangsheng nodded to everyone and said: "Everyone, the Shenwu Guard was established by His Majesty. We only obey His Majesty's orders. I am very pleased that you can follow His Majesty's orders. You have all withstood the test and are the pillars of the Shenwu Guard. "
Lin Xuan just nodded lightly and said nothing.
A commander clasped his fists at Lin Xuan and said, "We have heard the news from the Grand Prince's Mansion yesterday. Young Master Lin Xuan is really powerful. With Young Master Lin Xuan here, we are greatly emboldened."
Many commanders agreed and nodded repeatedly.
The eldest prince is powerful, and they don't want to die carelessly. If yesterday's news hadn't given them the confidence, there would be no need to show up today...
Wang Huchen and Xie Xuanzhi looked at Lin Xuan with the most shocked hearts. They had witnessed Lin Xuan's growth with their own eyes.
Especially Xie Xuanzhi, who had also checked Lin Xuan's details and knew clearly all Lin Xuan's deeds from his birth to the present.
Although Lin Xuan is already twenty years old, strictly speaking, Lin Xuan has only been practicing martial arts for a few months.
Xie Xuanzhi couldn't help but wonder, if Lin Xuan had awakened earlier, in which year would he have achieved his current achievements?
Thinking about Xie Xuanzhi, he was shocked. He saw the shadow of a young King Wu from Lin Xuan.
At this time, another group of Shenwu guards arrived.
They are the Shenwu Guards of Nanzhen Fusi, led by Deputy Chief Yu Xinghai, and there are dozens of them.
Ye Taishan stood unswervingly on Wei Cangsheng's side. He guarded Fusi in East Town himself and asked the Shenwu Guards from Fusi in South Town to come.
As for the West Town Fusi and North Town Fusi, they were led by two half-step martial arts kings, Hong Tianqiao and Gu Qifeng respectively, but they did not appear.
After waiting for a while, no Shenwu guards came from the West and North Town Fusi. Seeing the sun rising high, Lin Xuan waved his hand: "Let's go into the palace."
Lin Xuan and Wei Cangsheng were in front, and many Shenwu guards were behind. A total of seventy or eighty people, all of whom were masters of refining gods, headed towards the palace with surging aura.
The soldiers guarding the city allowed them to enter the palace without any obstruction.
Along the passage formed by the Forbidden Army's formation, Lin Xuan and others arrived at the main venue of the enthronement ceremony - the Palace Square.
The palace square is located in front of the main hall, one hundred feet long and fifty feet wide. There is a high altar in the center for kings to worship heaven.
In the enthronement ceremony, you first ascend the throne as king, wear the royal uniform, and then lead the ministers to the stage to worship heaven, and it is complete.
After that, he entered the main hall in front and held the first court meeting after ascending the throne as king.
Nie Renji has made all preparations for the enthronement ceremony.
At this time, all the officials of the Yue Kingdom gathered in front of the main hall of the palace.
In the palace square, there is an array of tens of thousands of forbidden troops, some holding spears or holding halberds, and the army is majestic.
The Forbidden Army is the most elite army of the Yue Kingdom. Every soldier is a warrior at the peak of the physical realm. Any leader who has a position is innate in the true energy realm.
In front of the Forbidden Army, unless you are a half-step Martial King, otherwise... even a strong man at the peak of the God Refining Realm will not be enough to look at.
There are quite a few masters at the peak of Shenwu Guards, and most of the commanders are of this level. But if they were surrounded by tens of thousands of forbidden troops, without Lin Shuo and Wei Cangsheng, they would not be able to get out.
Advancing through the passage formed by tens of thousands of forbidden troops, all the gods' military guards were a little frightened and could only place their hopes on Lin Xuan's guard Cangsheng.
Lin Xuan and Wei Cangsheng naturally looked normal. This scene... was already a small battle for them.
If there is no King Wu to stop him, no matter how many troops there are, they are just chickens and dogs.
Lin Xuan led the gods' military guards through tens of thousands of forbidden troops and entered the ranks of the court officials.
Those who can serve as officials in the dynasty are either from a distinguished background or are among the best among people. The officials who can participate in the enthronement ceremony are especially outstanding among them. Almost all of them are masters of the realm of refining gods. Only some younger ones have not yet stepped into the realm of refining gods.
realm, but it is also the peak of the true energy realm, or the realm of a half-step master.
In the past, the imperial officials looked at the Shenwu Guards with a hint of fear, but today, there was a hint of sharpness in their eyes.
As long as the eldest prince ascends the throne, it is very likely that the Shenwu Guard will become history.
The eldest prince, Nie Renji, stood on the steps in front of the main hall of the palace. Next to him, stood powerful men with auras as deep as the ocean.
Next to them are Nie Qingcang's other sons, the second prince Nie Wangji, the third prince Nie Daoji, the fourth prince Nie Mingji, the fifth prince Nie Wanji, and the sixth prince Nie Lingji.
Xu Jingkun was also among them, standing with Nie Lingji.
The arrival of Lin Xuan and others attracted everyone's attention.
In front of the main hall, on the square, the eldest prince Nie Renji, all the half-step martial arts kings, the court officials, and the soldiers of the imperial army all looked at the gods' military guards, especially Lin Xuan and Wei Cangsheng who were in front of the gods' military guards.
Nie Renji wears a glazed gold soaring crown on his head, dark gold chainmail armor, black gold black iron boots on his feet, and holds a black gold Overlord Halberd. He is still fully armed. He does not look like he is participating in the enthronement ceremony, but like he is going into battle.
Looking at Nie Renji's outfit and the half-step martial arts kings beside him, Lin Xuan could tell at a glance what choice Nie Renji had made.
This made Lin Xuan sigh secretly in his heart, and at the same time he felt quite relieved. Just in time...to wipe out all the opponents and completely crush their hopes, so as to avoid endless disputes after Wei Cangsheng ascended the throne.
Lin Xuan glanced at Wang Daoshu and paused for a moment. This man's magnanimity was extraordinary, and he was extremely outstanding among several half-step martial arts kings. For a moment, Lin Xuan felt like he was watching Nie Qingcang.
Wei Cangsheng's eyes also fell on Wang Daoshu, his eyebrows wrinkled slightly, and he said: "I didn't expect that Nie Renji even invited Wang Daoshu."
Lin Xuan's expression moved slightly and he said: "The great master of calligraphy, Wang Daoshu, the most powerful person in the Yue Kingdom besides Master?"
Wei Cangsheng nodded and said: "This person's calligraphy attainments are just a hair away from entering the Tao. Three years ago, the master judged him and said that he would definitely enter the Tao within five years. Now...three years have passed.
, I don’t know whether he took that step or not.”
Lin Xuan shook his head slightly. He had seen too many powerful Martial Kings. Although Wang Daoshu had an aura that vaguely resembled that of Martial King, it was not complete. He should have touched the edge of Martial King.
This is quite a formidable enemy.
However, Lin Xuan didn't pay too much attention to it. With the Dragon Elephant Powerful Technique of the sixth turn, coupled with the horizontal alchemy body and the thirty-six thousand kilograms of Crazy Thunder Sword, even Lin Xuan, the newly promoted King of Martial Arts, dared to fight. King Martial Arts
He doesn't take anyone seriously.
The only martial art that allows a master to leapfrog the level and fight against the King of Martial Arts is the 'Nine Turns of Dragon and Elephant Powerful Technique'. Wang Daoshu is a great master of calligraphy. As long as he does not reach the fifth level of 'Entering the Dao', then... his strength cannot reach the level of King of Martial Arts.
.
Lin Xuan looked at Nie Renji and said: "Everyone, listen, His Majesty is speaking...!"
Just as Lin Xuan spoke, Nie Renji pointed his halberd at Lin Xuan and shouted: "My father's will is passed down to me, Lin Xuan, don't pass it on randomly and bring trouble to the world!"
Lin Xuan looked at Nie Renji indifferently and said: "Nie Renji, I have given you a chance once, but unfortunately... you do not repent and insist on going against His Majesty."
After saying that, Lin Xuan smiled coldly: "Haha... Since Your Majesty has passed down an oral order, how can you let it fail? You should all think carefully. Anyone who is an enemy of Your Majesty is a traitor to the Yue Kingdom. Your Majesty ordered me to supervise the country.
, I can kill anyone who rebels against the country regardless of their identity."
The Banbu Wu King beside Nie Renji, except Wang Daoshu, and several others shared the prosperity and sorrow of the Nie family, and were not affected by Lin Xuan's words.
Wang Daoshu was slightly confused. He stood by Nie Renji to repay Nie Qingcang's kindness, but why did Lin Xuan say... that he was an enemy of Nie Qingcang?
On the side, Xu Jingkun shouted coldly and said: "His Majesty's decree was passed on to the eldest princes Nie Renji and Lin Xuan. When His Majesty passed the order, you were not with His Majesty. Only Nie Lingji and I were there. Why do you say that you have His Majesty?"
Oral instruction?”
Hearing what Xu Jingkun said, Wang Daoshu looked calm. Apparently... he felt that the rumor that it was the eldest prince was more credible.
Xu Jingkun looked at Nie Lingji and said: "Lingji, when His Majesty was in danger and conveyed his orders, were you and I the only ones here, without Lin Xuan?"
Nie Lingji looked a little dazed. The development of things to this point was beyond his expectation.
He felt guilty for doing this, and he kept blaming himself in his heart.
Xu Jingkun knew that Nie Lingji's attitude was unsatisfactory, so he did not ask about the content of the will, but asked a real question.
When Nie Qingcang was in danger, Lin Xuan was indeed not around.
When asked this question, Nie Lingji nodded affirmatively.
Nie Renji sneered and said: "Lin Xuan, you were not around when my father conveyed his will. Now you tell me that you want to convey my father's instructions and want to usurp my throne? You are wishful thinking."
Lin Xuan did not look at Nie Renji, but looked directly at Nie Lingji and said: "Nie Lingji, when we were on a desert island overseas, master once had a heart-to-heart talk with me about several sons. Do you know who master likes the most?
?”
In Nie Lingji's heart, he has always missed Nie Qingcang. Every night when he goes to sleep, he is reminded of the scene of Nie Qingcang falling into the dark abyss.
Now when he heard Lin Xuan talk about Nie Qingcang, Nie Lingji's eyes lit up and he said: "Who?"
Lin Xuandao: "It's you."
Nie Lingji was stunned: "Me?"
Lin Xuan nodded and said: "Master said that he has six sons, all of whom are outstanding and none of them are mediocre. He likes them all, but his favorite is the youngest son Nie Lingji.
I asked why at that time, and the master said that the younger son is most like him, has the broadest mind, the softest heart, and the most upright person. He will not use any means to achieve the goal. If the throne is to be passed on to his son, the younger son is the most suitable candidate.
However, in order for the Nie family to be passed down through the ages, he must break the rules of inheritance among dynasty families in order to avoid the end of the royal family being exterminated when the dynasty declines in the future."
Lin Xuan looked directly into Nie Lingji's eyes: "Nie Lingji, did my master misjudge you?"
Listening to Lin Xuan's words, Nie Lingji felt as if he was struck by lightning, tears welling up in his eyes.
Nie Lingji's heart was filled with regret. He seemed to see Nie Qingcang's figure. He stood in front of him and said to him: "Son, I was so blind that I misjudged you. I feel ashamed for you!"
Nie Lingji couldn't hold it in any longer and pointed at Wei Cangtian to reveal Nie Qingcang's true order to the public.
Nie Renji realized something was wrong, pointed at Nie Lingji and shouted: "Stop him!"
Xu Jingkun also saw the change in Nie Lingji's attitude. When Nie Renji shouted, he had already taken action.
boom--
A palm cut into the back of Nie Lingji's neck.
Nie Lingji was unprepared and was knocked unconscious by a palm.
