"Damn it, stop talking. Who knew that Ye Gucheng, who broke through to the Grandmaster realm earlier than Ximen Chuixue, would have the same strength as Ximen Chuixue?"
"However, why would someone dare to impersonate Ye Gucheng and stand on the Hall of Supreme Harmony yesterday?"
"I've heard about this. Apparently, someone forced Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng to rebel and find someone to impersonate Ye Gucheng to attract attention, while the real Ye Gucheng went to assassinate the emperor in the palace. However, it turned out that Ye Gucheng had already informed Tie Dan Shenhou and Mu Daoren to join forces and capture the person. But it seems that something unexpected happened, and Mu Daoren was injured and is recuperating in Zhuge Zhengwo's mansion."
……
Such discussions were almost ubiquitous in the various wards and streets of the capital.
Outside the steamed bun shop.
As she heard the conversation, Qu Feiyan began to circulate her inner energy.
Upon sensing the fluctuations of Qu Feiyan's true energy at the mid-stage of the Innate Realm, some martial artists around couldn't help but turn their heads and look at Qu Feiyan with curiosity.
Only when he looked at Qu Feiyan's face, which was in her thirties, did he turn his gaze away.
After isolating the group with his true energy, he turned to Chu Qinghe and said, "No wonder you said yesterday that there was another show. It turns out that the duel between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue was a ruse. The Azure Dragon Society also arranged a scene where Ye Gucheng assassinated the emperor."
Lin Shiyin asked in confusion, "But yesterday the Azure Dragon Society's target was only a Celestial Realm expert in the palace, so why did they need to stage such an assassination?"
Chu Qinghe said, "While we're holding off Zhuge Zhengwo, we'll also find two helpers and witnesses for our journey to Wudang later."
"Um?"
Hearing Chu Qinghe's question, the women all looked at him with confusion.
Facing the girls' gaze, Chu Qinghe said in a low voice, "If it weren't for someone like Zhuge Zhengwo, do you think that even if Daoist Mu arrived at Wudang, he alone could force Pang Ban to retreat?"
Qu Feiyan suddenly realized, "That's right! That Mu Daoren is only at the late Grandmaster stage, while Pang Ban is already at the early Celestial Realm stage. It seems a bit unbelievable that Mu Daoren could force Pang Ban to retreat."
After understanding the reasons, Lin Shiyin seemed to have thought of something and said with feeling, "The matter is settled. Next, the Iron-Blooded Marquis will become the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. With such a ruthless person sitting on the dragon throne, I'm afraid the Ming Dynasty will not be able to have peace in the future."
In response to Lin Shiyin's words, Chu Qinghe shook his head slightly and said, "As long as they don't provoke us, the rest will naturally be handled by others."
Chu Qinghe didn't care about Zhu Wushi's character or what Zhu Wushi would do after he became emperor.
In any case, yesterday, the several Celestial Realm martial artists in the palace, along with Zhu Wushi, were all drugged by Chu Qinghe.
If Zhu Wushi behaves himself and doesn't set his sights on himself, Dongfang Bubai, the Yihua Palace, or the Shenshui Palace, Chu Qinghe wouldn't mind standing by and watching as Zhu Wushi and the Qinglong Society slowly outwit and outmaneuver each other.
But if Zhu Wushi insists on making trouble for himself, Chu Qinghe wouldn't mind changing the ownership of the country back to his own people.
After putting down his chopsticks, Chu Qinghe said calmly, "Alright, don't think so much. It's better to set off as soon as possible. Once the Wudang Sect matter is over, we can go home and get some rest."
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe stood up.
At the end of the Si hour (9-11 AM), after the soldiers guarding the city checked the travel permits and confirmed that everything was in order, the carriage carrying Chu Qinghe and his companions slowly drove out of the north of the capital.
After an incense stick has burned.
Hulong Mountain Villa.
At this moment, Zhu Wushi sat quietly in a secret chamber made entirely of refined iron, his true energy surging wildly throughout his body.
As the true energy within Zhu Wushi's body circulated wildly, the three hidden meridians around Zhu Wushi's upper dantian were finally successfully connected.
As the three hidden meridians were opened, the true energy in Zhu Wushi's body suddenly began to circulate along a more complex and mysterious route.
Gradually, as the true energy within Zhu Wushi's body circulated wildly, a drop of thick, water-like true essence appeared in Zhu Wushi's upper dantian.
After the first drop of true essence condensed, a thick, water-like droplet appeared, which was the unique true essence of a martial artist who had entered the Celestial Realm.
As the true essence in Zhu Wushi's upper dantian continued to increase, the true qi in Zhu Wushi's body continued to decrease.
Only when all the true energy in Zhu Wushi's body had been transformed into true essence did a "whooshing" sound, like ocean waves, emerge from Zhu Wushi's body.
As the sound surged, a gust of wind suddenly burst forth from Zhu Wushi's center.
A moment later, Zhu Wushi opened his eyes, and a sharp glint suddenly appeared in them.
Feeling the vast and surging true essence within his body, even Zhu Wushi couldn't help but show a deep joy on his face.
Subsequently, as the true essence circulated, under this divine inspiration, Zhu Wushi clearly felt a special aura silently flowing from the air into the true essence in his hands.
After a long while, having experienced the changes after entering the early stage of the Celestial Realm, Zhu Wushi slightly raised his face, and a cold smile appeared on his face, as if he had thought of something.
Half an hour later, after his true essence fluctuations had completely subsided, Zhu Wushi slowly stood up.
Upon reaching the east side of the secret chamber, Zhu Wushi raised his hand, his left hand forming a claw. With a burst of suction, a massive iron block weighing a thousand pounds was slowly pulled out about an inch from the south wall of the secret chamber.
