“The Buddhist disciple is right, the so-called Zhenwu Division is just asking for trouble.”

The Western Territory is none of the Great Zhou's business!

Seeing Ban Chan express his opinion, Yelü Boqi also stood up.

The reason for this was that he had inadvertently learned some unknown secrets of the Secret Temple.

That is the subtle relationship between a Buddhist disciple and his guru.

A Buddhist disciple is, from beginning to end, a vessel chosen by the guru.

The guru will eventually continue to live within the body of the Buddha's disciple.

The memories of Buddhist disciples will also merge with it.

This means that the Panchen Lama's attitude represents that of the Panshe Lama.

As for Ban Chan's inexplicable anger, Yelü Boqi didn't think much of it.

After all, even a true Buddha can become angry one day.

It is perfectly reasonable for the Buddhist disciple to be angry about this matter.

The group, full of menacing energy, followed Tian You toward the reception room.

Where no one could see, Guru Panshi quietly followed.

He narrowed his eyes slightly, a hint of doubt flashing in them.

He had overheard their conversation.

The death of that Zhenwu Division official was too coincidental.

There must be someone behind the scenes trying to lure the Mizang Temple into their scheme.

This method is not sophisticated.

But why did Ban Chan get involved?

Could it be that he knows something he shouldn't know?

No, he couldn't possibly know!

Bansi quickly dismissed the idea.

The method of achieving longevity at the Secret Temple was originally created by the Zen Master.

The one who controls it is a guru like himself.

No one dares to reveal such a secret, nor can anyone reveal such a secret.

If that's the case, then there's only one possibility: Ban Chan is still too young.

That kind of personality is quite interesting.

Having lived for so long, I do need different emotions.

Thinking of this, Bansi licked his lips.

He decided to eat the cicada after seizing the dragon vein of the Great Shang Dynasty.

......

The atmosphere in the council chamber was already tense, as if swords were about to be drawn.

Even with Sword Emperor Ye Gu standing behind King Zhou Zhen of Shu, Jiang Lan did not yield an inch.

Her attitude has remained consistent from beginning to end.

That means everyone in the Shu King's mansion who has the ability to kill Tuoba Ye in one blow must cooperate with the investigation.

"Jiang Lan, you've gone a bit too far."

In this capital city, there are quite a few people who have the ability to kill Tuoba Ye.

Why don't you investigate them yourself, instead of coming to me, the king?

I have reason to suspect that you are using this as an excuse to make a fuss!

I think that Tuoba Ye might not actually be dead.

You came here purely to target me, the king.

This was all to clear the way for Li Fan, allowing him to successfully obtain the Dharma Body Pill!

With things escalating to this point, Zhou Zhenbian no longer held back.

Since we've already torn off all pretenses, let's go all the way.

"The Shu King's Mansion is the first one."

After I finish checking, I'll go to the second one.

I will check each and every household, and I will find out about each and every person.

Is this answer satisfactory to the King of Shu?

After Jiang Lan finished speaking, Zhou Zhenbian smiled.

His smile was full of disdain.

"Jiang Lan, anyone can talk big."

Leaving aside others, let's talk about that invincible master of the Spirit Sect. Do you dare to investigate him?

Zhou Zhenbian's words were a veiled attack on the heart.

Everyone knows that if it were truly an unparalleled expert, Tuoba Ye wouldn't have died so easily.

Not to mention him, even his father, Tuoba Longwu, would die without a burial place.

Zhou Zhenbian's words, seemingly citing the Lingzong sect's unparalleled strength as an example, were in fact also a statement.

Sword Emperor Ye Gu is here. Do you dare to investigate?

These words did not offend Ye Gu.

Since he has chosen to show himself, he doesn't mind Zhou Zhenbian using him as a shield.

Ye Gu was even somewhat looking forward to seeing how Jiang Lan would respond.

Having reached the point where he was invincible among mortals, he had not encountered a suitable opponent for a long time.

Last time in Shuzhou, he missed the chance to slay the Immortal-Slaying Sword in the Northern Frontier because he was in seclusion. This time in Tiandu, he will not miss the opportunity to fight against that invincible master from Jixia Academy.

He was very curious about how far he was from being the ultimate master of swordsmanship!

Not only was Ye Gu looking at Jiang Lan, but all the retainers of the Zhenwu Division were also looking at Jiang Lan.

Even Tuoba Longwu's heart was in his throat.

This is a difficult question to answer.

If they don't answer well, they'll probably all be stuck here today.

Treat everyone equally!

Jiang Lan said decisively.

No one expected Jiang Lan to be so decisive.

These words were tantamount to telling Sword Emperor Ye Gu.

You have no special privileges before the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Ye Gu smiled, a very happy smile.

Jiang Lan is indeed interesting.

Ye Gu's smile caused the expressions of the Zhenwu Division's retainers in the council hall to change drastically.

An indescribable pressure descended from all directions.

At this moment, they were as if they were standing naked in the dead of winter.

Snowflakes filled the sky, like endless sword energy.

This sharpness, mixed with the bitter cold, was intended to obliterate everyone present.

In fact, that's exactly what Ye Gu did.

He wanted to see what gave Jiang Lan her confidence.

After all, no matter how interesting Jiang Lan is, these words are tantamount to a challenge to him.

His swordsmanship doesn't care whether the challenger is strong or weak.

The weak are not to be killed without a sword.

The strong will draw their swords and kill.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Zhenbian smiled.

It would be better if my niece, like her mother, were dead!

But the next second, Zhou Zhenbian's smile froze.

Jiang Lan was not only unharmed, she even took a step forward despite Ye Gu's imposing aura.

As she took that step, the oppressive aura that had been shrouding Tuoba Longwu and the others vanished instantly.

The group of Zhenwu Division retainers gasped for breath, like drowning people who had been rescued.

"What a fine Jiang Lan! She truly deserves the title of a celestial being."

Who would have thought that you would advance even further after passing on your skills?

Throughout the entire history of the Three Kingdoms, only Li Fan can rival you!

Ye Gu's words made no attempt to hide his high regard for Jiang Lan.

Jiang Lan went from zero to being invincible in the world in just thirty years.

It only took Li Fan twenty-seven years to go from zero to Xu Mang's level. It's only a matter of time before he becomes invincible.

"You flatter me, senior!"

Jiang Lan bowed with her hands clasped in greeting.

"You flatter me! No, no, no!"

All I want to do right now is spar with you.

Ye Gu's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

Two streams of energy bloomed simultaneously.

Two figures collided.

The next second, the two disappeared simultaneously.

......

Glug!

Zhou Zhenbian's Adam's apple bobbed uncontrollably.

Am I dreaming?!

Jiang Lan actually broke through.

She has actually broken through the barrier of being invincible among humans.

How did this monster manage to do that?!

......

Has Ye Gu been fighting someone?

Could it be that person from the Jixia Academy?

The moment the two clashed, Banxi, who was in the Shu King's mansion, sensed it.

Although the two auras only bloomed for a moment, he clearly felt them.

If that's the case, then I'd like to join in the fun.

"Ban Chan, I need to leave for a while."

This matter is entrusted to you; you must handle it responsibly!

After saying that, Bansi flew towards the sky.
