Volume 1 Chapter 244 Heartfelt Talk
Xuanyuan Dabing nodded repeatedly, then cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much for your advice, Prime Minister. I am very grateful!"
"Then let's go back and wait for news. If the Prime Minister has time, come to our house for a drink. We will definitely treat you well!" Xuanyuan Dabing laughed heartily. After he came to his senses, he was so happy that he shook his head and left.
Wang Shu's smile faded the next moment, and he sighed solemnly, "What on earth is going through your mind, Your Majesty? By doing this, isn't it pushing the entire Great Sun Dynasty into the fire pit?"
"Can the Great Sun Dynasty withstand it? A scholar dies for his friend. Is it true that the whole country will die for the emperor?"
Thinking of this, Wang Shu's head couldn't help but swell and ache, and his steps became a little unsteady. Two imperial guards who were not far away hurried over to support him, said a few words of concern, and then helped Wang Shu out of the palace and got on their own carriage.
Ten miles north of the capital, on a rock under a mountain waterfall, Jiang Fei, with white hair and wrinkles on his face, was sitting cross-legged with his bare arms.
His brows were furrowed, his face was uncertain, and in his mind he kept echoing what Xiang Yun had said to him yesterday: "Ying Feng is dead. Although I didn't kill him with my own hands, it makes no difference!"
Is it true that Master Taixu Yingfeng, the master whom he hated but could not deny, is no longer in this world?
Jiang Fei was very conflicted. No matter what, his cultivation was taught by Ying Feng, and he really cultivated him as the heir of Taixu Immortal Land. How could he forget this kindness? Now he died before repaying his kindness, and his enemy was someone he couldn't kill!
"Ah~!" Thinking of this, Jiang Fei screamed in pain, and the whole person flew into the air. The black spirit spear flew into his hand, and then the majestic Taixu Qi shot out. With a strike of the black spear, the water of the waterfall in front began to flow backwards. The next moment, the rocks shattered and collapsed, boulders slid down, and the grass and trees exploded and flew.
Not long after, Jiang Fei reappeared on the original rock, with his back to the waterfall that had become a ruin. He raised his hand and the majestic Taixu Qi gathered in the palm of his right hand, and then he struck towards his Dantian without any hesitation.
"Crack~" A crisp cracking sound was heard, and Jiang Fei angrily spurted out a large amount of blood. His eyes turned red in an instant, and then his whole body began to swell. The next moment, a large amount of Taixu Qi poured out from Jiang Fei's mouth, nose, ears, and eyes. The speed was extremely fast. Within three breaths, the Taixu Qi in Jiang Fei's body disappeared.
At this moment, Jiang Fei's body froze, and then he fell down as if he had lost his backbone. His eyes went dark, and he fell into the stream formed by the waterfall in front of him. His body was washed downstream along the stream.
"Master, since I cannot avenge you in this lifetime, I will abandon my cultivation. I will never use anything you taught me again, and I promise to forget it all. From now on, there will be no relationship between you and me!"
An hour later, Jiang Fei in the stream suddenly opened his eyes and opened his mouth, and a large amount of stream water poured into him. He immediately stood up, coughed violently, and choked on a large amount of stream water, and even vomited out a few small fish.
Jiang Fei gasped violently for a few times, then stood up with difficulty and walked towards the shore.
Returning to the shore, I carefully felt my physical condition and found that I could not feel any Taixu Qi. My strength and physical fitness had returned to that of an ordinary person.
Jiang Fei was not discouraged. He caught fish, made a fire and roasted the fish on the shore to fill his stomach and dry his pants. Then he sat cross-legged, facing the firelight, and took out a replica of "Guiyuan Jing" from his waistband.
Looking at the martial arts book in his hand, Jiang Fei said softly: "From now on, Taixu Immortal Land has nothing to do with me. I, Jiang Fei, will only be the invincible General Wei!"
That same night, Xuanyuan Dabing was summoned into the palace by Xiang Yun, but the meeting took place not in the imperial study but in the palace parade ground.
Xiang Yun was wearing a tight training suit embroidered with dragons, practicing a boxing technique recorded in the Great Sun Emperor Sutra. His body shape kept changing, and every time he punched, there were sounds of dragon roars and tiger howls, and the air in front of his fists also became mysteriously vibrating.
Xuanyuan Dabing arrived with trepidation in his heart. Seeing Xiang Yun practicing, he did not dare to disturb him and just stood aside and watched quietly.
Xiang Yun, who was practicing, felt something in his heart. After finishing this set of boxing, he quietly stopped practicing, then wiped the sweat from his forehead, walked towards Xuanyuan Dabing, and said unhappily, "Why don't you say anything when you come here? You are so quiet, just like a woman."
Xuanyuan Dabing wanted to refute him, but when he thought of what Wang Shu had said to him during the day, he forced himself to hold back. He just bowed his head and said, "Your Majesty, I am here to see you. I wonder what is the important matter that Your Majesty summoned me for so late at night?"
Xiang Yun smiled and asked casually, "I didn't give you any inner strength skills, and I didn't give you any weapons that suit you. Did you curse me in your heart after you went back?"
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Dabing immediately knelt down and said, "I dare not!"
"I was not able to protect you well, and your majesty has not punished me, which is already a great favor. How dare I ask for anything else? Moreover, I have no right to ask who or what your majesty wants to reward. If your majesty rewards me, I will take it. If your majesty does not reward me, then I do not deserve the reward."
Xiang Yun looked down at him with a strange expression, then asked in a deep voice: "Did anyone say anything to you today?"
Xuanyuan Pancake replied: “No!”
"How dare you lie to me!" Xiang Yun shouted angrily, "If no one taught you, would you consider such high-sounding words on a normal day?"
Xiang Yunke was furious. He had intended to open his heart tonight, but Xuanyuan Dabing had the audacity to lie to him in front of him. This was a complete betrayal of his trust.
Xiang Yun kicked Xuanyuan Pancake away in anger, then took out a gold medal with the word "Dark" engraved on it from his arms and held it high.
In just ten breaths, a dark shadow appeared in front of Xiang Yun, whispered something in his ear, and then disappeared.
Xiang Yun's face became uncertain, and he cursed angrily: "What a clever Wang Shu, he can even guess what I'm thinking. I really underestimated him! But you are too clever for your own good. It's fine if you can see it, but if you dare to say it out loud, you will have to pay the price!"
At this time, Xuanyuan Dabing hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Wang said this for my own good. Everything is my fault. I hope Your Majesty will not blame him. And my loyalty to Your Majesty is evident to all, and I have no second thoughts."
Xiang Yun sneered, "No second thoughts? Do you know what I want you to do today?"
Xuanyuan Pancake said doubtfully: "I don't know!"
"Okay, then I'll tell you!" Xiang Yun raised his hand, and a dagger emitting spiritual energy appeared in his hand. He then threw it in front of Xuanyuan Dabing and said in a cold voice: "Today I want to borrow something from you. It concerns my life and death. Whether you are willing or not, it is up to you to decide!"
Xuanyuan Dabing's heart trembled when he heard this, and then he became ruthless. Without any hesitation, he picked up the dagger and stood up, shouting to Xiang Yun: "This is a matter of life and death for your majesty, how can you say it's a loan? Whatever your majesty wants, Dabing will give it to you directly!"
Xiang Yun said coldly: "It's very simple, just give me your life!"
"Boom!" Thunder roared in the sky, followed by lightning. The white light illuminated Xuanyuan Dabing's shocked face, and the next moment heavy rain began to fall from the sky.
The dense rain blew on Xiang Yun and Xuanyuan Dabing's faces, but the two did not move at all. They just stood there quietly looking at each other. At this moment, both of them had extremely complicated feelings in their hearts, and Xuanyuan Dabing's heart was even more like this horrible weather, with lightning and thunder.
"Since Your Majesty wants it, then I will give your Majesty this life! Ah~" Xuanyuan Dabing suddenly shouted loudly, then screamed and tightly grasped the spiritual dagger, and stabbed it fiercely towards his heart!
"Boom~!" There was another flash of lightning and thunder in the sky. Without any hesitation, the sharp dagger pierced through Xuanyuan Dabing's armor and the skin on his chest, and went deeper.
At the same time, a smile finally emerged on Xiang Yun's face, and no matter how hard Xuanyuan Dabing tried, the dagger in his hand could not penetrate his body even a little bit.
Xiang Yun waved his hand again, and the dagger with spiritual energy flew out of Xuanyuan Dabing's hand, flew back into Xiang Yun's hand, and disappeared.
Then Xiang Yun laughed and said, "Very good, I see your loyalty!"
Under Xuanyuan Dabing's puzzled gaze, Xiang Yun waved to him and said, "Come here!"
Still in shock, Xuanyuan Dabing walked over tentatively. Xiang Yun was shocked all over, and all the rain around him was shaken away. The next moment, a five-clawed golden dragon flew out, emitting rich golden light that illuminated the darkness. Then the golden dragon circled and turned into an invisible golden dragon energy barrier, protecting Xiang Yun and Xuanyuan Dabing inside and blocking the rain in the sky.
Xuanyuan Dabing came to Xiang Yun and Xiang Yun looked at the wound on his chest. The epidermis was punctured, but not much blood was flowing and scabs had begun to form.
Xiang Yun said calmly: "Big Pancake, don't blame me. This world is too cruel. It's really too difficult for me to trust a second person."
Xuanyuan Dabing shook his head and said, "Dabing said, as long as Your Majesty wants something, Dabing will give it to Your Majesty, without any hesitation!"
"Okay, let's stop here and don't mention it again!" Xiang Yun changed the subject and said, "Do you know why I didn't give you the inner strength method?"
“I don’t know!”
Under Xuanyuan Dabing's puzzled gaze, Xiang Yun slowly said: "I see that you have a strong physique and great strength, which is beyond the reach of ordinary people. So I think it would be a waste if you abandon this excellent natural talent and turn to practice internal skills. So I decided to teach you the method of body training myself!"
Then Xiang Yun raised his fist and said, "Come on, hit me with all your strength!"
Xuanyuan Dabing nodded and immediately raised his hand to fight. Xiang Yun reminded him at the critical moment: "Don't hold back. I am now a master of internal strength. You can't hurt me."
Only then did Xuanyuan Dabing feel relieved, and he really used all his strength to punch Xiang Yun. Xiang Yun also raised his hand, stretched out a finger and lightly tapped on Xuanyuan Dabing's fist, and actually took the punch directly!
Instead, Xuanyuan Pancake was blown more than three meters away by the force contained in Xiang Yun's finger.
