Chapter 771 – Jinling
An Zheng told Chen Shaobai and Qi Tian to go back to the sect to make the arrangements, after all, there waigh possibility that there would be a huge battle, and the conflict this time was unforeseen, so the other party suddenly came knocking on their door. Until now, he still could not confirm if this was a long plot or just a coincidence.
Chen Shaobai placed the yaksha umbrella beside An Zheng: “We’ll hurry back after we return. You should be careful.”
An Zheng nodded: “Don’t worry, when did I become an impulsive person?”
Chen Shaobai was startled for a moment. “When the f * * k did you not become an impulsive person?”
Qi Tian burst out laughing: “It’s best if we quickly go back and let everyone prepare, we’ll split up and do things. Quickly go and find those two young men from the Yuwen Clan and ask them to help you keep watch over the Hollow Jade Temple. I’ll go back to the sect first. An Zheng is right, if this is really the enemy’s plan to lure them away, then the Hollow Jade Temple may not be able to handle it. ”
Chen Shaobai nodded his head: “Alright, let’s split up.”
The two of them flew in different directions. An Zheng sat on the chair for a while before he got up and threw all the corpses into the house. Then, he used his eye arts to seal off the stench of blood in the house. No one knew how many evil deeds the Celestial Sect had done, not even they themselves. In the past, the Heavenly Reality Sect’s reputation in the southern region of the Great Xi Empire was extremely bad. But now, they had changed their name to Infinite Palace.
After An Zheng cleaned up all the corpses in the courtyard, he looked at a stone table not far from him. He pulled the stone table over and placed it in front of the chair, then leaned back in the chair and leaned his legs on the stone table. He rummaged through the Blood Pearl Bracelet space, and took ouat to cover his face, as if he was asleep.
At the same time, the Imperial Palace, the quiet garden.
Wen En bowed his head and said to Chen Wunuo, “The infamous members of the Heavenly Justice Sect that were present in the southern part of the river back then, actually went to find the Hollow Jade Temple this time. That Daoist Chen Liuxi from the Hollow Jade Temple was really ruthless, seeing that his own disciple was ambushed and injured, he immediately rushed over and attacked their feet, and killed them all by himself. However, these people are only here to stand in front, so there aren’t many of them.
“Where is Chen Liuxi now?”
“He’s still at that place, as if he’s waiting for someone.”
Hearing these words, a hint of doubt flashed across Chen Wunuo’s eyes, and then he laughed: “Have you noticed that this Chen Liuxi does things likerson?”
“I can feel it, it’s similar to Fang Zheng.”
Wen En shook his head: “It’s as straightforward as usual, and they won’t hold back at all.”
“Just a little bit.”
Chen Wunuo said: “Fang Zheng’s actions definitely do not have this kind of style. If he knew that those people were from the Heavenly Reality Sect, he would definitely kill his way up to the door! There is no doubt about it, he will not leave a single one alive. But Fang Zheng would not just sit there and wait, he would instead grab hold of a person and torture him to death.
“There’s probably a difference in cultivation.”
Wen En thought for a while and said: “If this Taoist Chen’s strength is as terrifying as Fang Zheng’s, maybe he would also choose to do the same.”
“Not necessarily, because Chen Liuxi doesn’t know what kind of things the Heavenly Reality Sect is.”
Chen Wunuo said: “It’s only because one of his people was ambushed and almost died that he went intage. And don’t you see that this Chen Liuxi is far more tactful than Fang Zheng? He doesn’t know how to change it at all. That is something in Fang Zheng’s bones, he is just a reckless person. ”
He looked at Wen En. “Why do you think the two of them are very similar?”
Wen En replied: “Your Majesty, it’s only because this old servant suddenly thought of it when you asked. After some careful thought, it was true that there was no direct connection between the two. It’s just that this old servant heard that recently, people with the banner of Fang Zheng’s successor have been looking everywhere for trouble, Your Highness … It is also because of this possibility that the Prince would commit suicide. ”
“A successor …”
When it came to Chen Zhongqi’s death, Chen Wunuo’s expression changed a little: “If only Fang Zheng had a successor, we would have greatly valued him.”
He shook his head to prevent himself from thinking too much into it, and after looking at Wen En, he said with a smile, “Actually, the biggest difference between Chen Liuxi and Chen Liuxi is whether or not one has selfish desire and whether or not one knows how to scheme against others. Fang Zheng was a straightforward person, he did not make any detours. But this Chen Liuxi was different, his way of doing things was more calm than Fang Zheng. Those who knew of this matter would think that Chen Liuxi was impulsive, but in reality, it was to establish his might. I just gave him such an important job, so many people are jealous. “Therefore, he must let those martial institutions know about the power of the Hollow Jade Temple. It just so happens that those evil people of the Heavenly Justice Sect have appeared, and they have given him a chance to show his power.”
Wen En said, “This Tian Liang Sect is really something. Back then, they did not dare to disappear for dozens of years when they were chased by the Ming Fa Si, but now, they actually dared to appear in the Jinling brazenly. Does anyone really think that outside of the Ming Fa Si, no one would dare to touch them?”
“Let Chen Liuxi do it, and tell the people below not to participate, and not to ask. He would pretend that he didn’t know anything and let the Hollow Jade Temple and the Celestial Sect of Wonders fight. If Chen Liuxi were to become famous in one battle, it would be much easier for him to work for us in the future. We need a sect who can speak up for us in the martial arts world, Chen Liuxi is the most suitable candidate. ”
“But Your Majesty, there are tens of thousands of sects in the Great Xi, and even the orthodox sects in the Dao Sect can still go to the Violet Firmament Hall in the Wu Dang Mountain. Why does it have to be Chen Liuxi?”
“Because the Hollow Jade Temple is anxious to establish itself.”
Chen Wunuo said: “Two things, you go and explain them now. Firstly, even though the Hollow Jade Temple had shown some of its strength, they were in urgent need of assistance from the government oowerful family. This was what they called pulling people in. To be able to hold the flag for himself was also an display of his strength. The higher the level of the people they pulled along, the harder their own strength would be. With Chen Liuxi’s interaction with him, all of the great clans in Jinling had connections, especially the two young men from the Yuwen Clan. Go out and reveal yourself. No one is allowed to help Hollow Jade Temple. ”
“Second, don’t let the Hollow Jade Temple really be thwarted, and Chen Liuxi can’t die yet as well. When I was chatting with him a few days ago, he said something that touched me greatly. To fight for unity, he said, is to stay united. To seek unity through compromise means to unite until death … So, Wen En, tell us why we need to use the Hollow Jade Temple and why we need to use this Chen Liuxi. ”
“Your Majesty, this old servant thinks so. The so-called struggle for unity naturally couldn’t be a struggle between His Majesty and the clans below. It wasn’t a fight between His Majesty and the sects below, but a fight between them. The Hollow Jade Temple was a foreign sect. When the Emperor placed importance on a foreign sect, all the sects of different sizes in the Jinling would be jealous. “It’s not just the Jinling. If this news spreads, the entire Da Xi sect will be jealous …”
Chen Wunuo laughed: “Continue.”
Wen En pondered for a moment before continuing: “This old servant feels that provoking sects of all sizes is not His Majesty’s main goal. There is only one thing His Majesty wants to provoke … Mount Wudang. His Majesty has also used the Hollow Jade Temple, and can even spread rumors that His Majesty intends to grant the Hollow Jade Temple the Dao Sect’s orthodoxy. This way, he will definitely not be able to sit still. ”
Chen Wunuo laughed even more freely.
Wen En said: “Wudang Mountain has not participated in anything for all these years, even when His Majesty ordered them to do so, they would definitely not do a single thing. Although they are known as the number one sects in the Da Xi River Region, they seemed to have appeared out of nowhere and were not even in the martial arts world. This was because no one could shake their position. As soon as the Hollow Jade Temple gained power, Wu Dang Shan would definitely step in. At that time, His Majesty can use the people of the Wu Dang Mountain to deal with the summoner of the Summoning the Spiritual World, or even the Buddhist Sect. ”
Chen Wunuo shook his head while smiling: “Do you know the biggest difference between you and Su Ruhai?”
Wen En shook his head. “This old servant doesn’t know.”
Chen Wunuo said, “Su Ruhai can see that he can’t hide anything. But if I ask, he’ll pretend to be confused. “But you won’t pretend to be ignorant. Whatever I ask you, as long as you can see it, you will definitely say it.”
Wen En sighed: “It’s this old servant’s cultivation that’s not enough yet.”
“We all have our own strengths.”
Chen Wunuo said: “As long as Wu Dang Shan appears, many things can be easily resolved. If they were willing to send people to assist the army in the south, then everything would be smooth sailing. Even if the people from the Buddhist Sect knew that Wu Dang Shan was involved, they would also become more cautious and not easily take action. ”
He waved his hand and said, “Go and make the arrangements. I want to see just how deep the Hollow Jade Temple is hidden. I want to see if that mysterious Daoist has appeared or not. It’s still like that: Don’t worry about it, but don’t let Chen Liuxi die either, because his abilities have yet to be fully unleashed. ”
“This old servant understands, I will arrange it now.”
Chen Wunuo said, “Call Ye Qing here to see me. I have speculated that the leader of the Summoning the Spiritual World s who has become a Monarch has not shown up, and his injuries are more serious than I had expected. Allowing Ye Qing to go to the Frozen Land to investigate, he is the most suitable. ”
“His Majesty is finally going to use this person.”
Chen Wunuo said: “We have already abandoned him for nearly a hundred years... Back then, he was the first choice we made when we picked the Ming Fa Si, but after Fang Zheng appeared, we had to use Fang Zheng instead of him. He has rested enough for the past hundred years. It’s time for him to come out and do something for me. ”
Wen En accepted the order, bowed his head and left the quiet garden.
When he was halfway there, he saw the Divine Empress walking over from afar and immediately bowed. “This old servant Wen En greets the Divine Empress.”
The Divine Empress slightly nodded her head. “Is Her Majesty present?”
“Here.”
“Mm, go busy yourself.”
After the Divine Empress entered the quiet garden, she walked out of the grass hut and looked through the window to see Chen Wunuo reading the imperial reports with his head lowered. She did not enter the room, but instead stood by the window and said with a calm but unquestionable tone, “Your Majesty, Fifth Uncle has already arrived in the northwest.”
Chen Wunuo’s hand that was holding onto the brush stopped in midair and he turned his head to look at the Divine Empress, “You … “What are your plans?”
The Divine Empress stayed silent for a while, but did not reply. Afterwards, she turned around and walked out. This was the first time that she seemed unmoved by the Divine Empress’s question. Chen Wunuo suddenly realised that he seemed to have underestimated her endurance towards the matter of Chen Zhongqi’s death. When a person’s temperament greatly changed, it could be because the pain they felt in their heart was too great, it was so great that they had to make changes to slightly alleviate the pain.
After walking a dozen or so steps, the Divine Empress stopped in her tracks.
“I lost my weapon. His Majesty only has one day of pain, but I will be in pain for the rest of my life.”
She continued on her way, “Therefore, I can’t overdo anything.”
Chen Wunuo’s main pen snapped wita sound, and his fingers turned slightly green.
Outside the Jinling, a masked man who was sitting in a horse carriage looked at something that looked like a compass in his hands. He raised his hand and gestured, “Let’s not enter the city for the time being. Tell Right Protector Zhou Cunzhi to go take a look, and see if something has happened. ”
It sounded like a woman.
