"The Phoenix Nirvana Sutra!" The scene erupted in uproar, and many people who were about to run stopped.
"What is the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra?" Many people had never heard of this name before and asked their companions with curiosity.
"That's a legendary martial arts manual that only exists in legends. It's said to grant immortality. Countless kings, nobles, and generals throughout history have searched for this book in their quest for immortality, but no one has ever been heard of finding it. I never expected it to be in Zu'an." In such a large city as Bright Moon, there are many powerful families, and news about the Phoenix Nirvana Scripture quickly spread.
Throughout history, no matter how high your cultivation level is, or how many times you become the best, you may live a few more years than ordinary people, but in the end you will still be unable to escape the fate of the five signs of decay.
The current emperor is powerful, invincible, but everyone knows that he has reached the end of his life and may pass away at any time.
Xie Yi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, then he lowered his head to hide it: "No wonder the Emperor went to such lengths, even going so far as to wipe out the Chu family to capture Zu An. So that's what it is. We must report this to Prince Qi as soon as possible."
The reason why the Qi Wang faction has been able to fight against the emperor all these years is ultimately because the emperor's time is coming to an end, so the Qi Wang faction has enough patience to wait, and time is on their side.
But if the emperor were to gain immortality, what hope would the Qi Wang Group have left?
Who would be out of their mind to oppose an immortal, supreme being?
Thinking of these serious consequences, Xie Yi's expression grew increasingly grim. If not handled properly, the Qi Wang Group might collapse.
Jiang Luofu looked at Zu An in surprise. How could this little guy have so many secrets?
Superior aptitude is enough to drive the world crazy, but now there's even the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra"?
The temptation was so strong that she was almost tempted to do it herself. If they weren't so familiar with each other that it would be difficult to make a move, she might have succumbed to temptation and become a robber.
Chu Zhongtian and Qin Wanru exchanged a glance, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes. At the same time, they suddenly realized why the Emperor would disregard the rules of the court and take action against them. At the time, they thought that arresting Zu'an was just an excuse, but now they understood that compared to the value of Zu'an, the Chu family was just an extra.
Given the Chu family's background, they had naturally heard of the "Phoenix Nirvana Sutra," but they never expected it to be in Zu'an.
A few months ago, most people in the Chu family felt that Zu'an was marrying above his station. Now it seems that it's not so clear who is marrying above whose station.
Not to mention them, even Prince Liang and Liu Yao were extremely surprised. Although they were responsible for arresting Zu An, they did not know the specifics of the matter. They had secretly complained that the emperor's move was making a mountain out of a molehill, but now that they knew the reason, they all suddenly understood.
The commander of the embroidered-robed envoys was immediately enraged: "You scoundrel! You need to spread such heresy? What 'Phoenix Nirvana Sutra' is there in this world?"
Anger value from yellow, gray, and red increased by 444!
His outburst only made the people around him think they were guilty, and their gazes toward Zu An changed, as if they wanted to possess him.
It's unbelievable that Chu Zhongtian, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, is so cunning in secret. I knew it! Why would the Chu family marry their celestial daughter, Miss Chu, to a street thug? It turns out they were after the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra.
If I had a daughter, I'd marry her too!
Stared at by the lustful gazes of the crowd, Zu An swallowed hard. He wouldn't mind if it were a group of beautiful young women looking at him like that, but it was a bit unsettling to see a group of grown men staring at him like that.
He cleared his throat and said to the group of embroidered-robed envoys, "Alright, alright, if you say there's nothing, then there's nothing. Since there's nothing, can I leave now?"
Huang Huihong gasped, "Of course not! We need to arrest you and take you back to the Emperor for interrogation!"
Zuan shrugged and said nothing, but a chorus of boos rose from the crowd, clearly mocking their self-deception.
Huang Huihong, enraged, hurriedly waved to his companions to surround Zu An: "Make your move! You got away by accident last time, but we won't make the same mistake again this time."
Anger value from yellow, gray, and red increased by 583!
He had carried out these missions for so many years, and every person who saw the Embroidered-Robed Envoy would bow down and let them take them away. Even if one or two people resisted, they would be quickly suppressed, and their eyes were always filled with fear when they looked at them.
But this guy, Zuan, not only wasn't afraid of them, but they were also starting to worry that he might cause some trouble again.
Zuan shook his head: "Don't worry, I won't run away this time. I'll go with you to see the Emperor."
Everyone was shocked by these words.
Huang Huihong said in a deep voice, "What tricks are you playing?"
He would believe it if anyone else surrendered without a fight, but this guy doesn't seem like it at all.
Zu An smiled slightly: "What? I'm standing right here. Do you think a dignified Embroidered-Robed Envoy wouldn't dare to arrest me?"
Chu Zhongtian and Qin Wanru hurriedly used their spiritual energy to remind him: "Auntie, what are you doing? Hurry up and take this opportunity to run! We can help cover you."
Zuan shook his head: "No need. I don't want to implicate you. Besides, I have my own plans. You two don't need to worry."
Jiang Luofu, who was standing nearby, kept transmitting her voice: "You brat, I don't know what you're thinking, but if you're really taken to the capital, you'll definitely not survive. The emperor won't allow another person to learn the art of immortality."
Zuan replied with a smile, "Thank you for your concern, beautiful principal, but do I look like the kind of fool who would go to his death?"
