Chapter 587 The Mastermind

As one of the top five forces in the world, Wenjian Tower has a long history and profound background. As a true sword master, its status and identity are so noble. If it weren’t for Shen Ping, the Marquis of Zhenbei, who has mastered the sword, and has shown his extraordinary talent at a young age, the Taixuan Sword Immortal would probably not even meet him. Even Madam Yu’s identity as a sword master would be useless.

I can say so much only because of the Sword Master's instructions.

Leave Kefeng.

Return to the house where we live in Lijiang City.

Yunxia and Yunyue, two beautiful twin sisters, were warming the bed under the quilt. They were only wearing bellybands. When they saw Shen Ping walk into the room, they curled up in shame.

"My son, please don't move."

"Once you have married a wife, you can take them into your own room. The rules cannot be broken."

Madam Yu's voice was heard outside the house.

Shen Ping was speechless. Wasn't this training his concentration? Fortunately, he was a man who had been tempered through thousands of trials and tribulations. Otherwise, if he was really the young Marquis of Zhenbei, how could he have endured it? You know, being full of blood and vigor is not a joke. With a little stimulation, he can become erect.

"Yuezhu, go make some tea."

"Okay."

After a while.

The fragrant tea was served in the hall outside the bedroom.

Shen Ping was sitting in a chair, sipping tea when his expression suddenly changed and his true soul power sensed the land immortal on whom he had left his mark.

So he let the twins have a good rest and he quietly left the house.

call out.

The wind moves silently.

The figure floats on the river.

I saw a cruise ship with two night lights hanging on it, moving at a slow speed towards the direction of Lijiang Academy. There were two people in the boat, one was a young man in white, and the other was the land immortal who poisoned Shen Ping that year.

The true soul power conceals one's own energy.

Neither of them noticed.

now.

They were talking on the boat, and although they tried to cover up with sword energy, they could not prevent Shen Ping at all.

"If you can come out on top in this Lijiang Academy sword exchange, you will have the opportunity to view the landscape scroll, which is a great opportunity."

The young man in white shook his head and said, "It's extremely difficult to get the top spot. It's impossible to surpass Fairy Lijiang and Taixuan Sword Immortal alone, not to mention Yuanyang from Tianyin Temple. That monk is number one on the Qiankun Ranking and has been ranked first for many years!"

"With my strength, being able to get into the top five of the sword exchange is already the limit. Although the top five cannot see the landscape scroll, they can stay in the Lijiang Academy for half a year, and there may be opportunities during this period."

The black-clothed man who poisoned the person said in a deep voice, "Whether our Jintang can rise or not depends on you this time. No matter what the final result is, there must be gains."

The young man in white nodded, "I understand. By the way, I heard that the Marquis of Zhenbei is also in the Lijiang Academy. The hall master sent you to the Marquis of Zhenbei's mansion that year, and the matter was successful, but I didn't expect such a change. Do you want to find an opportunity to kill him?"

The man in black sneered, "Do you have that kind of strength?"

"According to the hall master, although the Zhenbei Marquis is only a land immortal, his sword intent has reached the realm of transformation. Even the immortal realm is not sure. What happened back then was done very cleanly and there would be no mistakes. The hall master does not blame me."

The young man in white said calmly, "Although I don't blame you, a monster has appeared after all. Humph, if we use some means, we may be able to kill him. Aren't you curious about why he can grow so fast!"

"There are geniuses in this world, but this kind of genius is too much. Remember the former Zhenbei Marquis? He rose to prominence just as quickly and entered the immortal realm very early, attracting the attention of the higher-ups. Otherwise, how could he have died?"

The man in black was silent for a moment, then said, "Curiosity can kill people. People like us should not do anything beyond our status."

The young man in white curled his lips, seeming to disagree, but didn't say anything else.

Shen Ping showed an interested look in his eyes. From their conversation, it was obvious that this Jintang was a covert organization, but he had never heard of it.

Followed for a while.

Seeing that the two did not say anything else and he did not hear any other information, he left and came to the Lijiang Academy and found Palace Master Yan.

"Jintang?"

Palace Master Yan frowned and said, "I have never heard of such an organization in the world."

Shen Ping asked again, "Palace Master, do you know how my father died in the depths of the demon country?"

Those who can kill the former Marquis of Zhenbei are definitely in the immortal realm.

There are not many powerful immortals in the world, and basically everyone is familiar with them.

Palace Master Yan glanced at Shen Ping, hesitated, and finally said, "Your father was surrounded and killed by six immortal realm masters, and eventually died of exhaustion. This kind of thing, if you know it now, will only harm you. Those immortal realm masters are not even dared to offend our Lijiang Academy!"

Shen Ping blinked, "Six immortal realm masters surrounded and killed him. Is there any force in the world that can send out six at once? As far as I know, there are not many immortal realm masters in the top five forces. You should have three in Lijiang Academy?"

"How do you know..."

Palace Master Yan's face changed slightly, and then he sighed, "Yes, there are three, and you are right. The forces in the world that can send out six immortals are at least the top five forces. However, this world is not as simple as it seems. The only forces that can be seen in the immortal realm on land are the top five forces and the demon country!"

"But the Immortal Realm is different."

Shen Ping said, "In this case, the Immortal Realm can touch the real world, or in other words, the Immortal Realm is just the beginning."

He himself felt that the world of the Red Giant Palace was a little abnormal. Although they had a strong understanding of the sword intent and some of them were even close to the Tao, their cultivation was very low. Even the destructive power of the immortals on land was not strong.

But the true soul power did not sense any existence that was too strong.

Palace Master Yan rolled his eyes and said, "The Immortal Realm is already at the top of the mortal world. What I mean by not simple is that after breaking through the Immortal Realm, you will receive an invitation, and the force behind the invitation is the rumored Changsheng Realm, which has reached the ninth realm."

"It's just that no one has ever seen a true immortal realm. What they have encountered are only strong people in the immortal realm. However, the number of immortal realms in this force is indeed far more than the top five forces, but they rarely interfere in the mortal world."

"I don't know the specific reason why your father was surrounded and killed by this force, but this kind of thing rarely happens."

Shen Ping snorted in his heart, probably because he felt that his father had some secrets and coveted them, "Palace Master, where is this power?"

"have no idea."

“No one knows.”

Palace Master Yan shook his head. "I guess the Jintang you mentioned might have come from this force. In fact, over the years, the five top forces have also speculated that this force has arranged for some members of the organization to walk in the mortal world."

"Marquis Zhenbei, you'd better not ask. When you break through to the Immortal Realm, you will receive an invitation and then you will be able to contact them."

Listen to this.

Shen Ping smiled and said, "I promise, Palace Master."

Palace Master Yan breathed a sigh of relief. "Marquis Zhenbei can comprehend the way of swordsmanship from landscape paintings. His talent is rare in the world. Since Jin Tang is also interested in the landscape scroll, you should be careful. I will tell Xian'er not to use the swordsmanship you taught her during the exchange of swordsmanship."

…

A few days later.

The sword-fighting exchange at the Lijiang Academy has officially begun. The entire exchange will last for half a month. The first few days will mainly be an opportunity for swordsmen from all provinces in the world to compete. The middle days will be for the top 100 members of the Qiankun list to compete with each other. The last few days will be exchanges between sword-fighting masters from the five top forces.

And these days, even the counties and counties around Lijiang City have many people.

Shen Ping took Yunyue, Yunxia, ​​Yuezhu and others to sit in Wangjiang Tower to watch the swordsmen competition in the city. The competition was held in Lijiang City in the past few days. There were ten competition arenas, and Wangjiang Tower was the best place to watch.

Not only the prince, but also the prince has booked a private room.

If it weren’t for his status as Marquis of Zhenbei, he probably wouldn’t even be able to get a window seat.

Shen Ping was not interested in the exchange, but Yue Zhu and the others really wanted to see it, so he brought them here.

"This swordsman's swordsmanship is very good, it has the artistic conception of a rushing river, but it's a pity that I haven't yet fully comprehended it."

"Not bad, not bad. I didn't expect that there are some good talents among ordinary swordsmen."

"Yuhua Divine Dynasty has the most swordsmen, and there are always some good seedlings in every sword exchange. It is said that if they perform well, even if they cannot join the top five forces, they can still go to some large forces, or medium-sized forces in the capital city."

The spectators around were talking loudly.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

There are very few forms of entertainment in the Yuhua Divine Dynasty. An exchange and competition event like this will naturally attract a lot of people and make many people excited. It is also an opportunity for some ordinary swordsmen.

Shen Ping was eating osmanthus cake and watching the game, but he was thinking about Jintang in his heart. However, he was just thinking about it when he had nothing to do. In his eyes, Jintang and the forces behind it were nothing but a transcendent force in this world. For him, increasing his understanding of swordsmanship was the most important thing.

"Although this Taixuan Sword Immortal has a rather cold temperament, he can still be trained after some practice. It is more interesting to tame a fierce horse!"

My thoughts drifted to Huo Ru again.

Having traveled through many worlds, he had come across women with strong tempers and who did not pretend to be nice. It would be interesting if he could subdue them.

The twins Yuezhu, Yunyue and Yunxia were watching very excitedly and kept clapping and cheering.

At this time, a prince came over.

His eyes fell on the beautiful twins.

"These two are the beautiful concubines raised by the King of Dongchang, right? Marquis Zhenbei, how about a deal? As long as you hand them over to me, just tell me what you want."

The words fell.

The two twins' faces turned pale, and their interest in watching the swordsmen's competition disappeared at once.

Shen Ping glanced at the prince casually. There were more than a dozen princes in the Yuhua Divine Dynasty, but only three could compete for the position of crown prince. The prince in front of him was a marginal prince with no real power. He might not even be able to get the title of prince in the future.

"I want your life, will you give it to me?"

He said bluntly.

How dare any of you, a mother or a dog, yell at me in front of me.

The prince's face immediately darkened, and the guard beside him stood up and said coldly, "Marquis Zhenbei, you'd better watch your attitude. You can't afford to disrespect and humiliate the royal family!"

Shen Ping glanced around.

The eyes of the guards around the prince became empty, and their hearts seemed to be crushed. Soon, they fell to the ground with blood gushing out of all their orifices.

The spectators around seemed to see nothing.

"Don't challenge my patience. I'll give you ten seconds to disappear from Wangjiang Tower."

The twelfth prince was so frightened that his whole body froze. It was only then that another guard reacted and hurriedly dragged the prince away with the corpse.

Yue Zhu couldn't help but said, "My Lord..."

Shen Ping stretched out his hand to interrupt, "Don't tell me there will be any trouble. Our Zhenbei Marquis Mansion guards the Northern Territory and kills countless demon soldiers and generals. How can we be challenged by any prince? Humph, this prince seems to be brainless, but in fact he has other calculations behind him."

He is right.

Now that the throne of the Crown Prince is vacant in the imperial capital, other princes all want to compete, so naturally they have to win over all the major forces in the world. The Zhenbei Marquis Mansion is a force that cannot be ignored. Since his rise, many envoys have been sent by the princes of the imperial capital.

The twelfth prince just used some tricks to plot, and the third prince was supported behind the scenes. If he offended himself, the third prince would not be able to win him over.

The twins Yunyue and Yunxia were moved. Obviously, they did not expect Shen Ping to conflict with the prince for a beauty of their status.

This incident was just a small episode for Shen Ping.

The next ten days.

He watches kendo exchange competitions every day.

In the following days.

The competition was moved to the Lijiang Academy.

Sit in your seat.

It's quite interesting to watch the top 100 members of the Qiankun list compete against each other.

Madam Yu was also beside him. She commented from time to time, "My son, those who can enter the top 100 of the Qiankun list are all rising talents in the world, especially the top 10. They are all strong in the realm of immortals on land. You must observe carefully."

But watched a few shows.

He felt drowsy. These sword masters at the top of the Qiankun Ranking were just performing and not showing their true strength at all. It might be that at their level, they already knew each other's strength and would not easily reveal their cards unless they were sure.

However, when competing for the top five in kendo exchange.

The game became truly exciting.

After all, the top five can stay in Lijiang Academy for half a year, and Shen Ping also saw the young man in white. The opponent's sword intent is more inclined to the sword of killing, and his sword moves are sharp and fast as lightning, especially when combined with his body movements, he looks like a ghost.

"You have actually comprehended a little bit of the mystery of wind. No wonder you dare to brazenly want to kill me!"

He watched with interest.

Although this young man in white has not yet entered the Tao, he is not far from it.

Compared with it.

The rest of the top ten on the Qiankun list performed mediocrely. Although their sword intent was very pure and stronger than Madam Yu's Piaoxue sword intent, in Shen Ping's opinion, it was just so-so.

In fact, generally speaking, it is easier to let your sword intent comprehend the realm of swordsmanship after entering the immortal realm. Most of the immortals on land only perfect their sword intent and make it tend to be perfect.

Not long.

Then it was Yao Xian from Lijiang Academy's turn.

Even without using the Water-Splitting Sword Technique, with his strength, he was able to defeat the young man in white with just over ten sword moves.
