In Chang'an City, how many years had passed without the occurrence of an event of this magnitude?
The ancient city that suffered unease hadn't been so bustling with noise and excitement for a long time.
Because it was said that a teenager Great Master defeated the Heaven Sword Martial Club.
The phrase of Great Master, in Chang'an... no... in this world, possessed unparalleled magic, needless to say it was connected with a young man, which would be even more amazing. Some people even asked on the spot what the situation was or whtether this teenager was an illegitimate child of that martial club's owner.
In the morning, the Heaven Sword Martial Club failed, while in the afternoon before dinner time, almost everyone in Chang'an knew it.
As for the disciples of the Heaven Sword Martial Club, they felt indignant but helpless. This was definitely a shame.
In various places where crowds gathered, such as t
"Did Li Mu cultivate himself from Master Realm to Great Master Realm in less than two months?" Wang Chen was shocked by this inference. In two months, from Zongshi Master to Great Master? Wang Chen also knew that his guess was very absurd and unbelievable. But not knowing the reason, in his inner heart, he just thought that his inference perhaps represented the truth of the matter. Of course, he would not divulge this guess. Because no one would believe it. After carefully considering his own wording, Wang Chen tried to suggest, "Your Highness, I have observed Li Mu. This man has quite a chivalrous heart. He once, on behalf of county people, eradicated the Shennong Faction. With arguments or emotional appeal, we could ask him to help us rescue the wife and kids of General Tang..." Qin Zhen nodded and said, "We shouldn't pin anything on people and things that are uncertain.
In the Pig-Herding Alley... Inside a small yard... "I pay my respects to Madam Li and Young Master Li." A fine-featured elegant woman bowed to Madam Li and Li Mu. Her dressing was simple, just a short upper garment with a long skirt. She was also wearing light makeup and a hairpin topped with a pearl, which looked lovely against her rosy complexion. There was a baby in her arms. He appeared to be just a few months old and was really adorable. Standing next to her was an honest-looking man who was about twenty-five. He had thick brows and large eyes and was wearing a light armor while carrying a sword at his waist. "Dong Xue, this is wonderful. Seeing you here safe and sound, I have no more concerns," said Li Mu's mother as she mopped her tears. Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief internally. It took him by surprise that Dong Xue, the oldest one among the four maids, the first who was f
Their one divine sword could split the sky and eclipse the rest of the other swords in the world. The Heaven Sword Sect was highly renowned on the continent. It was one of the heavyweights among the second echelon of sects, only inferior to the top nine Holy Clans. Having been founded a long time ago, it had notable attainments in the field of martial arts, especially the swordsmanship. It could be said that the Heaven Sword Sect was one of the most remarkable sects on the continent, a quite large sect of swordsmen. The Heaven Sword Martial Club was an affiliated agency of the Heaven Sword Sect. Its founder, the Heaven-Sword Celestial Being, was from the Heaven Sword Sect. Its unparalleled secret skill—the Heaven-sword Sixteen Styles—was also evolved from the sword art of the Heaven Sword Sect. Rumor had it that back then the Heaven-Sword Celestial Being had entered the Great Master Realm, and he could activate his sword with one breath of his internal qi
What Li Mu asked for were not a million pounds of silver but a million pounds of gold. The value of that amount of gold was way higher. The eyes of the owner of the Xiongfeng Martial Art Club were lit up with thrill. "How come I didn't come up with this idea? If I did, our Xiongfeng Martial Art Club would have long since been rich, wouldn't it? In that case, we would no longer need to send our disciples to make money by doing delivery work at the dock every day." Those words almost freaked the Marvelous Mathematician out. He hastily contradicted, "Thank God you didn't figure out this mad idea. Otherwise, our Xiongfeng Martial Art Club would have already been destroyed." After all, not everyone could pull off blackmail, especially when the subject was a tough one like the Dafeng Chamber of Commerce. Nonetheless, this time the seemingly greedy request of the young Great Master was not accusatory. "What do you say? Well, think abo
The appointed battle between Li Mu, a young Great Master, and the Heaven-Sword Celestial Being, a legendary old sword expert, had caused a great stir in Chang'an. In particular, the martial arts circle in Chang'an all regarded it as a grand event. After all, it had been over ten years since the last combat between Great Masters occurred. Everyone was looking forward to the duel. "Your Honor, shall we intervene at this point?" Zheng Cunjian asked Li Gang, the magistrate of Chang'an, for instructions. The battle involving Great Masters was so unusual that it might need the government to supervise. Great Masters represented the medium and high-classed combat ability of a nation. On this continent, the total number of Great Masters from the three human empires—the Western Qin, the Southern Chu, and the Northen Song—was less than ten thousand. Those cultivators were practically standing on the top of the martial pyramid. And for either of the emp
Darkness gradually wrapped around the city, and evening lights began to lighten the streets. The Musical House, which was located in the Fragrance Alley on the East Main Street, was about to usher in its busiest hours of a day. Faint music and singing were fluttering out from the alley. Like the Rouge River running across the end of the Fragrance Alley in the east, the melodies of singing and dancing could be heard in the alley every evening, luring numerous men to go in and have a look. Li Mu, who had never been here before, followed the lead of Zheng Cunjian and entered the Fragrance Alley. This alley was much wider and stretching much further than the Pig-Herding Alley. The road was several kilometers in length and could accommodate four carriages driven by eight horses to run shoulder by shoulder. The ground was paved with the best flagstones, which fit smoothly and were very neat. The alley was lined with delicately-built wooden houses
"Fu*k!" "What did I do to deserve that hostility and sarcasm?" Li Mu felt he had been wronged out of no reason. "It's not me who claimed that I have peerless intelligence. It's this brownnose, Zheng Cunjian... And even if I did say it, it has nothing to do with you lot. Do you just have to mock me like that?" For a moment, Li Mu simply wanted to snap back. But after giving it a thought, he decided to let it go, because tonight he was here to experience... no... to admire the beauty of the girls in the brothel. He did not want the little conflict to grow into a bummer. Sitting next to him, Zheng Cunjian narrowed his eyes. In the city of Chang'an, there were only a few people who dared to taunt him, but the men at the neighboring table were certainly not one of them. However, since Li Mu didn't flip at their rudeness, he was not in the position to meddle in. But he deliberately bore the faces of those
Soon, more than a dozen people came to the table one by one to write their own poems down, but their level was not as good as that previous arrogant man. Instead, they not only couldn't win the fame but also were laughed at by others. Thus, they failed and retreated in dejection. None of their poems could be selected for hanging, but they were treated as waste paper, which was directly smashed and thrown into the wastepaper basket on one side. About half an hour later, another man who looked like a businessman from another place wrote a poem about a beautiful woman, which was full of artistic conception. Although it was not as excellent as Beauty Poem by the arrogant sloven, it was also readable. Hence, it was selected to hang at a height of the second floor. Then, that ecdemic businessman was transported with joy. However, that slovenly and arrogant man directly sneered, "Hanging together with your poem, Beauty Poem by me, Son
Li Mu's cultivation nowadays was at the peak of the Golden Immortal, and his battle power could cut down the first generals.If one were to obtain a drop of Immortal Marrow, one could instantly leap into the peak of Immortal Generals, and at that time, even if one were to face an Immortal King, one would be able to defeat him in battle, not to mention traversing across the major state capitals, even if it was the entire Eastern Sacred Continent, the heavens and the earth were vast, and one could go to it.At that time, it would be like a fish out of water to find Wang Shiyu, Hua Wanyong, and the others.At that thought, Li Mu immediately became desirous of this Immortal Marrow."One drop of Immortal Marrow, one great realm, so if a bottle of Immortal Marrow were all swallowed, wouldn't it directly soar into the Immortal Emperor, Immortal Emperor or even Immortal Lord realm?" Li Mu said.Xia Jing was stunned and then giggled."I didn't expect that
Uh-huh?What a scene of déjà vu.Li Mu all of a sudden, remembered the legendary Liu Huangshu Baidicheng entrusted the orphan.It's a pity that the Emperor is not Uncle Liu.And Li Mu is not Zhuge Kongming.Li Mu said indifferently, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, I can make a dao oath that I won't taint the imperial power of Huangji Cliff for the rest of my life.""Cough cough cough ......" the emperor coughed, hastily said: "I ...... am not using words to frame you, I... ...In the chaotic world, there is no strength, sooner or later ...... sooner or later is the death ...... of the disaster ...... wood brother you if you are the emperor, or you may be able to ...... preserve a trace of my bloodline, I ......"Li Mu said, "Your Majesty's meaning, I understand, but my words remain the same, I will never dye the royal fist, Emperor Chen will be a bright ruler."The emperor sighed and said, "I understand ...... all ...... all stand down ....
Reimu smiled.Snap your fingers.Phew.A golden stream of light flashed by.Emperor Zhen, who was roaring at the top of his lungs, his voice came to an abrupt end, and his hands covered his neck, a splash of blood seeped out, followed by golden flames, which spewed out from his body."You ...... you dare to kill me?"He looked at Li Mu incredulously and eventually turned into a puff of flying ash.In the great hall, there was an instant dead silence.The horrific images, although they had ended, the aftermath was still like a hurricane, still madly hitting everyone's nerves over and over again.Prince Wood actually went out and killed someone?He actually made a move?Killing a royal son with royal blood flowing in his body right here in this great hall?He dared.He really dared.All the ministers felt that their bodies were cold, as if they had fallen into an ice cave, like the cold winter of the t
The other ministers in the hall, hearing such words, could not help but look at Zheng Yuan with shocked gazes.The so-called Emperor Tatsu's son is a wild seed, this kind of thing, if you don't explode it sooner or later, and you don't explode it at this time, what is the intention?Besides, it's not certain whether it's true or not.Saying such words in such an important meeting of the court was tantamount to slapping the emperor's face in public and rubbing the emperor's majesty, on the ground.What a nerve.On one side, Servant Yin's face changed wildly as she shook her head and argued, "No, it's not like that, Chen'er is His Majesty's child ...... "When the Emperor intended to set up Emperor Chen as the Crown Prince just now, she vaguely realized that this was a dangerous signal, the treacherous darkness of the palace court was not something she could resist as a small servant girl.But I didn't expect the slander and danger to come so
"Tatsu-chan!"Servant Yin was filled with a huge surprise in her chest and subconsciously rushed over to the little boy and held him in her arms."Mother, you're here too ...... Mother, I've seen father."The little boy dug into Squire Yin's arms with delight.His first words had to do with his parents.But many snickers resounded clearly and audibly in the great hall.Although no one said anything, the meaning was clear: 'Father' is a word you call, too?Servant Yin, however, didn't pay that much attention.In the instant she saw her son, her heart, without the slightest bit of nervousness or panic, held her son firmly in her arms, and the only thought in her entire life and soul at that moment was to protect her son at all costs."Do not make a noise and stand aside."The Grand Eunuch opened his mouth to chide.The little boy then kept his mouth tightly shut.He was foolish and hadn't seen much of the world, b
A cold aura flickered.A sword to the death.The sharp sword was about to pierce the young maid's brow.Just then, a sudden change occurred.Suddenly space and time seemed to freeze, and the black-clothed assassin realized that his immortal sword, after all, was no longer able to progress the slightest bit.What's going on?He was alarmed in his mind.And yet the next moment--Ding!The sword body incredibly broke apart and turned into countless shards.The tip of the sword flew backward and penetrated the black-clothed assassin's throat.Before the blood could soar out, his body erupted into a ball of golden flames, which then turned into flying ash and dissipated into the air.The little maid looked at what was in front of her in shock.In that moment just now, she thought she was bound to die.It turned out to be the assassin who died.Who saved me?She gasped in horror and looked arou
The Emperor was sitting on the throne of the Nine to Five, a little tired.The fact that he was poisoned was not revealed to the public.So until now, no one has known.But the toxin was eating away at his body so frantically that his energy was declining so much that his entire body felt extremely tired at all times.The sound of ministers' ears arguing seemed near and far away in the ear.The hand-wringing Prince Tatsu was led by the great eunuch and stood on the side of the dragon chair.Eight or nine year old boy, for the first time out of that small compound, face full of fear, timid, like a small goat caught in a wolf pack, not knowing what to do, lowered his head, twisted the corner of his coat, did not even dare to come out of the atmosphere.This look, in the eyes of the ministers, is even more unbearable."Your Majesty's intention to establish a Crown Prince is a major event, and should not be done in haste, perhaps it should
The little boy did not return until late afternoon.The young maid tried to inquire about the news several times, but was mercilessly stopped by the palace's close guards guarding the entrance of the firewood courtyard.She had been until, herself, she was secluded.This alarmed the young maid even more.What the hell is going on?What kind of terrible things would Tatsu'er face if he went to the palace?The Empress and the Noble Consorts, they won't poison him, will they?Why did His Majesty suddenly summon Chen'er to the palace?She speculated in her mind in fear, her tears were like a fountain that she could not control at all.It's a mother's love for her son.Humble but great love.Kneeling on both knees in the courtyard, she looked up at the Hao Sun that was gradually setting in the sky, and at the silver full moon that had already risen, shedding tears and silently praying with her life and soul."Tatsu'e
The Emperor was at the half-step Golden Immortal level of cultivation, and although this realm was forcefully instilled with various resources and secret techniques, the realm was enough after all.The lifespan of a half-step Golden Immortal could be more than five thousand years.So the Emperor never thought that he would have to face death head on, so soon."It's so ...... ungrateful."He smiled bitterly on his face and sighed deeply on the inside.But in the end, you have to face reality.The biggest problem to consider today was who should inherit the throne of Huangji Cliff after his death.He had only ascended the throne as emperor for just over two years, and because he was diligent in his political affairs and too young, he had not even considered the matter of the succession of the throne.In the harem, there are but one wife and two concubines.These three women were not his true love, but were allied for the sake of pr
