At the beginning of Chapter 470, Jiuyou Zunshen (first update)

The establishment of the martial arts academy is not a good thing for the "nobles" of the nine kingdoms of this fairyland.

These so-called nobles are not necessarily high-ranking people in power.

Because the inheritance time is too long, the descendants are multiplying more and more, and most of them are of ordinary qualifications. Therefore, to this day, there are "nobles" with ordinary status and little power in many places.

These people usually occupy some minor official positions and are far from having any power, but after all, they are "nobles" who can practice high-level martial arts, and they still have a sense of superiority when facing ordinary people.

Therefore, after the news that Zhongdu Wangcheng established a martial arts academy to spread high-level martial arts throughout the world spread, the first to jump up were not those high-ranking people in power.

On the contrary, these "small nobles" who served as petty officials could not sit still.

But no one dared to express their opposition publicly.

No one went to seek help from the high-level authorities.

After all, from the fact that this news was not restricted and could be spread at will, it can be seen that even the high-level officials did not dare to criticize the martial arts palace.

You know, the peerless strongman who established the martial arts palace was named "Cui"!

Legend has it that this Cui Feng is the cousin of Cui Qing, who almost destroyed the entire fairyland world before, and he himself has the cultivation of the twelfth realm of the real world, reaching the pinnacle.

Who dares to criticize this?

Unless they are tired of living!

However, these people do not have the courage to criticize the martial arts palace, but they have the courage to find excuses to abuse ordinary people, and they are still very brave!

At one time, the number of ordinary people who were arrested and imprisoned by petty officials for violating local laws for various reasons increased rapidly.

And there was real evidence, laws to follow, and traces to follow, without any problems.

The minor nobles were busy finding trouble with ordinary people and venting their emotions.

The great nobles gradually came to their senses and felt that this matter might not be simple.

...

In the capital of Wu State, in the palace of the king.

At this time, Fu Cheng, the lord of Wu State, was discussing the matter of the martial arts academy with his confidants.

He looked like a middle-aged man in his fifties, with a sad face.

Zhao Kang, Feng Taiying, and Zhou Mingyi, who were around him, were all important ministers of the Wu Kingdom. They were also at the eighth level of the True Realm and were True Immortal-level warriors.

On weekdays, Fu Cheng rarely summoned the three of them at the same time.

Now that he had gathered the three of them together, it was clear that the matter of the Martial Arts Academy was already very serious in his mind.

"Three of you, what do you think about the martial arts academy in Zhongdu Royal City?" Fu Cheng asked the three people straight to the point, without keeping them in suspense. "I think this is our fate."

"I think so too." Zhao Kang nodded and said in a deep voice, "Once the martial arts academy opens, the people of the nine countries will yearn for Zhongdu Royal City. Over time, we will have no people in the country." "

Yes, this is a very serious matter." Feng Taiying said solemnly, "The number of people under the rule determines the depth of the land's communication with the outer fairyland. If the number of people is greatly reduced, I am afraid we will not be able to practice in the future."

"The most helpless thing is that we can't do anything at all." Zhou Mingyi sighed, "Not to mention that the founder of the martial arts school is a strong man of the twelfth realm of the real world, and there is Cui Qing standing behind him. We can't afford to provoke him."

Cui Qing!

After this name was mentioned, the whole palace became quiet.

Everyone lowered their heads, with a deep sense of powerlessness in their hearts.

Cui Qing's extremely terrifying power is still vivid in their minds. Even if the power of the entire Wu Kingdom is gathered, it is estimated that it cannot match a strand of Cui Qing's hair.

Resist?

It's just courting death.

“This is the conspiracy of the Hongwu King.” Fu Cheng shook his head lightly and sighed, “If things continue like this, the population in the country will decrease, and it will be difficult for us to practice.

“The real ending will be after millions or tens of millions of years, when this group of people who go to the martial arts academy to practice martial arts grow up and become true immortals or even supreme true immortals.

"When that time comes, will they let us go? Will they let us govern them? Will they obey our orders and build a country for us? I'm afraid not."

"Your Majesty is right." Zhao Kang said angrily, "If these Qiandu people are allowed to have the channels to practice high-level martial arts, we will definitely be the ultimate victims!

"Then what exactly does Cui Qing want to do? If he wants to deal with us, he can easily kill us with his strength. Why bother with so much trouble?"

"I think this matter should not have much to do with Cui Qing." Feng Taiying shook his head lightly and said, "After capturing the Immortal Lord and abolishing the Human King, Cui Qing has never shown up again.

"Cui Qing's realm of cultivation is too high. He came to us only for Hongwu. Now that Hongwu has settled down, he has probably left our fairyland world.

"If Cui Qing is still in Zhongdu Royal City, he can solve all problems by himself, and there is no need to let Cui Feng come to stabilize the situation.

"This means that the construction of the martial arts academy and the spread of martial arts are probably the ideas of the Hongwu King himself, and Cui Feng was just sent to help. "In other words

, as long as we can convince the Hongwu King, or reach some agreements with him, we should be able to eliminate this disaster without a trace."

"Makes sense!" Zhou Mingyi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he smiled, "The Hongwu King wants to win over these lowly people, and he must have an unknown purpose.

"As long as we can find out his real purpose, we can start from this point to negotiate cooperation with him. Anyway, as long as we can help him achieve his goal, it will be fine."

"I'm afraid it's difficult." Fu Cheng shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Hongwu Renwang is not an ordinary person, and Cui Qing is not an ordinary person either. Since he has done this now, he must have thought it over carefully and must have obtained Cui Qing's approval.

"Although I don't understand what the point of him pulling these people together is, since he has made such a decision, it is not something we can change easily."

"Your Majesty, we have to give it a try." Zhou Mingyi said in a deep voice.

"Yes, are we going to sit and wait for death?" Feng Taiying also advised.

"Your Majesty, we should give it a try." Zhao Kang said sincerely, "No matter what the purpose of the Hongwu King is, now is just the beginning, and we may still have a chance to change."

"..." Fu Cheng frowned and sighed, "What if the real purpose of the Hongwu King is to let those people replace us? Then there will be no room for negotiation."

"That's impossible." Zhao Kang shook his head repeatedly, "What good will it do for the Hongwu King to do this? Those lowly people have no inheritance, and they don't know any secrets. The Hongwu King has no reason to help them replace us."

"Your Majesty, you are worrying too much." Zhou Mingyi smiled and shook his head, "The Hongwu Human King also cultivated all the way to the level of the True Realm. He himself does not belong to the common people, so why would he help that group of lowly people? This is unreasonable."

"That's true." Feng Taiying nodded and smiled, "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. There is no reason for the Hongwu Human King to let that group of lowly common people replace us.

"Moreover, the nine countries in the world have expressed their submission to him, and every ten years they will go to the Zhongdu Royal City to report their political achievements. This would not have happened in the previous era of the Human King.

"From this point of view, the control power of the Hongwu Human King over this fairyland has reached the pinnacle and has never been seen before. Does he want to destroy the existing nine countries and leave only himself?"

"It is impossible to do such a thing." Zhao Kang said in a deep voice, "Small countries like Chen and Liu may be taken, but it is impossible to touch the seven major countries like our Wu. Without us, who will help him manage this huge fairyland?"

"Your Majesty, we should indeed give it a try." Zhou Mingyi advised again, "At least find out what the Hongwu Human King wants to do first."

"..." Fu Cheng was silent for a moment again after hearing this, and finally slapped the table lightly, "Okay, let's check it out and find out Hongwu's purpose first. Remember to act in secret and never let anyone find out."

"Yes!" The three saluted in unison.

...

After finishing the conversation with Zhao Kang, Zhou Mingyi and Feng Taiying,

Fu Cheng came to a secret room deep in the palace .

The floor of this secret room was painted with dense and complex runes.

Each rune symbolized an extremely mysterious law and Taoism, as if communicating with a secret place that existed in the dark.

In the surrounding void, there was also a suspended blue flame, which made the dark secret room even more gloomy.

The whole secret room was arranged into a formation, or an altar.

Fu Cheng slowly walked to the center of the formation, and knelt down with great piety, with his fists clenched in front of his chest, his head lowered, and his expression solemn.

"Greetings to the Nine Netherworlds."

He bowed to the void, but received no response, only the faint blue flames were jumping slightly.

Fu Cheng waited for a while, but still received no response, so he bowed on the ground with his five limbs on the ground, and said respectfully: "The new human king seems to be going to attack me. If the Wu Kingdom is destroyed, your whereabouts will also be exposed..."

Whoosh! !

At this time, a burst of cold wind suddenly appeared in the secret room, and the faint blue flames began to jump violently, as if they were responding more fiercely.

Fu Cheng did not say anything, but bowed with a pious face, his eyes slightly closed, as if he was listening to a certain sound.

After a moment, the cold wind disappeared, the faint blue flames stopped jumping, and the secret room became gloomy and quiet again.

When everything was back to normal, Fu Cheng finally stood up slowly. The worry on his face had disappeared, replaced by a confident smile.

"As long as His power can really descend here, let alone Hongwu and Cui Feng, even if Cui Qing comes in person, there is nothing to be afraid of!"
