Seeing this, Emperor Wu couldn’t help but feel even angrier. Who dared to hurt the Great Zhou Royal Family?
At this moment, Liang Sheng suddenly spoke, “Kun, you should leave first. Let me find out what’s going on and then I’ll explain it to you.”
Emperor Wu nodded, but before leaving, he suggested, “Ancestor, I am afraid something might happen to Brother Yang as well. Just in case, I’ll have him come back too.”
Liang Sheng naturally wouldn’t object. He appreciated the Zhou family being cautious and prudent. Hearing Liang Sheng’s agreement, Emperor Wu bowed and left.
Emperor Wu thought thoroughly. Prince Wei’s reaction just now had already indicated that he had foreseen the danger but couldn’t react in time.
If an Innate Master couldn’t react in time, one could imagine how powerful the opponent was. And seeing the Ancestor’s expression, he was afraid that the opponent was of the same kind as the Ancestor.
Because the Great Zhou Imperial Family didn’t know the existence of the cultivation world under Liang Sheng’s previous meticulous arrangement, Emperor Wu’s speculation could only go so far.
Regardless of how Emperor Wu thought, at this moment in the great hall, Prince Wei had already told Liang Sheng the whole story from beginning to end.
After listening, Liang Sheng’s face was still gloomy, but his heart was relieved. The enemy was not strong, and there was even a contradictory feeling. Even if Prince Wei was unconscious, he had been suffering unbearably.
Seeing this, Liang Sheng cast another Body Purification Talisman to heal the hidden injuries on Prince Wei’s body. He looked at Liang Sheng with a fanatical expression.
As expected of the Ancestor.
However, at this moment, Liang Sheng was still deep in thought. He didn’t know if there were others behind the opponent, so he was caught in a dilemma and hadn’t thought of how to deal with the situation temporarily.
In the end, he was still too weak. Otherwise, why would it have come to this?
Name: Liang Sheng
Age: 241
Talent: Innocent Foolishness (Extreme)
Technique: Third Layer of Upper Pure Immortal Scripture, Sixteenth Layer of Twenty Life-Nurturing Techniques
Realm: Qi Cultivation Third Level (81%)
Lifespan: 9211
Although he could refine his own Qi Refining Pills, Liang Sheng couldn’t possibly take them like candy every day. There were limited quantities of Elixir Refinement Spiritual Grass, and the success rate of refining pills wasn’t high. Thus, Liang Sheng had not yet broken through to the Four Levels of Qi Cultivation. If there were no accidents, he would need at least four more years to break through.
However, compared to before, his cultivation speed was advancing rapidly. Without the Qi Refining Pills, Liang Sheng didn’t know if he had broken through the Qi Cultivation Third Level by now.
Fortunately, according to Prince Wei’s account, even if the opponent was a cultivator, they might only be at the Qi Cultivation First Level, and their situation was even somewhat strange.
However, the problem was that the other party might still have people behind them, so the matter couldn’t be easily concluded. But he had a way to verify it as well.
“Wei, how do you feel if I accompany you back to your fiefdom?”
Prince Wei was startled and then smiled widely.
“Great luck!”
“What if you go back alone?”
“Great misfortune!”
Liang Sheng nodded without saying anything else, letting Prince Wei rest first and not show his face temporarily to prevent the news of his awakening from getting out.
When Emperor Wu met with Liang Sheng alone, his expression was slightly more relaxed. “Ancestor, I have already hurriedly informed Brother Yang to come back quietly within eight hundred miles. Nothing should happen.”
Liang Sheng nodded and suddenly asked, “Kun, how do you feel about leading an army to Prince Wei’s fiefdom?”
Upon hearing this, Emperor Wu was startled, and his face turned pale.
“Not good.”
“What about staying in the capital?”
“All? Nothing happens!”
Hearing Emperor Wu’s words, Liang Sheng became more convinced of his guess. But he still had to wait until the King of Anyang returned.
Since that’s the case…
Liang Sheng made up his mind at this moment.
One month later, the King of Anyang secretly returned to the capital without anyone knowing. Countless people’s eyes were on the capital, which might have been the first setback the Great Zhou had encountered since its founding.
At this moment, the envoys of various countries were also watching with cold eyes. But they didn’t know why, and there was a faint sense of pleasure in their hearts.
Amidst this atmosphere, Liang Sheng called Emperor Wu, King of Anyang, and Prince Wei together and asked them the same questions again. Eventually, Liang Sheng reached a conclusion.
The other party would come to the capital and target Prince Wei!
And if they stayed in the Capital, the three of them all had the feeling of good fortune. However, if Prince Wei returned to his fief, Emperor Wu and King of Anyang would be unharmed, but Prince Wei would face a great disaster.
Given this information, Liang Sheng naturally chose to wait for the enemy, with Prince Wei staying in the capital. However, Liang Sheng would not directly show himself but would hide and observe from the shadows.
If the opponent really was defenseless, he could just deal with them cleanly and efficiently, removing the trouble. However, if things didn’t feel secure, he would distance himself and regroup for further planning.
As for the possibility the enemy wouldn’t come to the capital, it would mean that there were still flaws in the Zhou Family’s bloodline ability, and he would need to reconsider his arrangements.
After making up his mind, Emperor Wu immediately began to act according to Liang Sheng’s arrangements, and King of Anyang appeared in the court on the first day.
Observant people in the world sighed and believed that Great Zhou was cautious about Prince Wei’s affairs, so King of Anyang was quietly brought back to the Capital.
But the next day, Prince Wei suddenly appeared at the court, shocking and then delighting the civil and military officials.
Emperor Wu directly stated that all the rumors about Prince Wei being gravely injured and returning to the capital after an attack were false. It was merely a routine visit, coinciding with the inspection of the new atmosphere of Great Zhou and other nations coming to pay respects.
The foreign envoys were even more amazed and puzzled. Hadn’t the previous rumors said that Prince Wei was on the verge of death due to severe injuries? Who had spread the fake news!?
It deserved to be punished!
King of Anyang’s quiet entry into the capital and Prince Wei’s rumored return had confused the world to prevent anyone from scheming. Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou’s thoughts were as deep as the sea and unpredictable.
The story of the Great Zhou Capital continued, but all this had nothing to do with Liang Sheng. At this point, he was already hidden in the imperial palace, and even Emperor Wu didn’t know his whereabouts.
He waited like this for a month.
That night, the moonlight was as usual, but Liang Sheng frowned and sensed a strange atmosphere.
The faint aura was somewhat similar to when Prince Wei was unconscious before. Liang Sheng did not become overly anxious but continued to lurk in the darkness.
The other party wasn’t very careful. Although Emperor Wu and the others couldn’t detect his presence, Liang Sheng could see everything clearly.
The opponent was indeed a Qi Cultivation First Level cultivator. No wonder Prince Wei was left severely injured and dying without any resistance.
However, if this was the case, why hadn’t they killed Prince Wei directly? The arrival of this person further proved how strong the bloodline ability of the Zhou Family was.
Moreover, Liang Sheng finally understood why he had felt that the aura of the person behind the scenes was somewhat unusual before. It was because this person’s lifespan seemed to be running out, perhaps less than ten years left.
A dying person is the most terrifying.
Liang Sheng followed the man while his target was clear, heading directly to the Imperial Library. It seemed that he had investigated the layout of the Imperial Palace long ago.
Imperial Library.
Emperor Wu Zhou Kun had just had a sudden inspiration. He didn’t feel any sense of imminent disaster and couldn’t help touching the talismans on his body.
With the Ancestor present, there was no need to worry.
The next moment, a faint breeze rose in the Imperial Library, and a sinister-looking man suddenly appeared in front of Emperor Wu.
“Where is Prince Wei?”
There was no movement from the guards outside the door. Emperor Wu Zhou Kun’s expression remained calm, “Is it you who almost caused the death of my brother Wei?”
The other party didn’t answer but directly made a move. Since the Emperor was uncooperative, there was no need to waste time.
At that instant, a wisp of black energy rushed towards Emperor Wu. He couldn’t react in time, but in the next moment, the Vajra Talisman and the Heart Clearing Talisman on his body emitted a faint light.
“Talismans!?”
The intruder’s expression changed instantly, looking bewildered and caught off guard by this unexpected development. The next moment, he turned and tried to flee.
Feeling that something was wrong tonight, he wanted to flee first and deal with the problem later. As someone from the Mortal World, he had never encountered methods from the Cultivation World, and his heart raced with a pounding sound.
Why did Great Zhou still have cultivation means?
At this moment, the intruder was panic-stricken. If he had known this beforehand, he wouldn’t have tried to torture Prince Wei and would have killed him directly. Then there wouldn’t have been any trouble today.
He wanted to escape, but in the next moment, more than ten gray-white flames appeared, suspended in the air, making people shudder involuntarily. “Daoist friend, please stay!”
(End….)
