Chapter 114: Martial Artists from All Over the World Gather in the Capital, Ding Dian, Tianshan Chil
Li Chenzhou shook his head and said, "That's absolutely impossible."
His hand was wrapped in bandages; he had taken a blow from the Golden Wheel Monk's "Dragon Elephant" technique. If it weren't for Su Ying, his hand would have been ruined.
It was him; anyone else would probably have been beaten to a pulp long ago.
He continued, "His Majesty lives in the Leopard Chamber. Rumors circulate that His Majesty is licentious and immoral, and that the Leopard Chamber is full of beautiful women for his pleasure."
Whether this statement is right or wrong.
"It is true that His Majesty is absurd and fond of beautiful women, but he is certainly not wicked."
"The Leopard House was an administrative agency he rebuilt to bypass the cabinet, plus... his playground."
"The place is heavily guarded; it's impossible for anyone to assassinate him."
He looked at Li Ping: "Even you couldn't do it. There are countless experts inside. Although there aren't any top-tier experts, it's absolutely impossible to sneak in silently."
"Besides, the Divine Machine Battalion is stationed there. No matter how strong a master is, he simply cannot win against the Divine Machine Battalion."
Everyone believed Li Chenzhou's judgment.
But Huang Rong said, "What if it's...supernatural power?"
Li Chenzhou fell silent. If someone had awakened some strange supernatural power that allowed them to infiltrate, that was indeed possible.
Zhao Shirong shook her head and said, "I still think it's impossible. The Ming Dynasty has a very complete succession mechanism. Even if His Majesty dies, at most a new emperor will be appointed. At that time, the cabinet will be in charge, which will have an impact on the overall situation, but not a big one."
Huang Rong said, "It's enough if there's any impact, even if it's just a little bit."
There is one more important piece of information that has not been posted here.
That is, a natural disaster may have occurred on the grasslands. At this time, if the Tatars want to survive, the only way is to invade southward.
To survive, they would do anything, even if it was just to increase their chances of winning by a tiny bit!
Li Ping looked at Huang Rong and said, "But how did you figure out that they wanted to assassinate the emperor?"
Zhao Shirong sighed, "The Commandery is doing everything it can to find these Tatar experts; they've already come in full force."
"Tatar experts are secretly stirring up conflict in the martial arts world. Recently, the Embroidered Uniform Guard has also dispatched many experts to investigate in order to compete with us."
"The capital is a bit empty; I mean, it's a lack of masters. There's a shortage of masters."
"But even so, Rong'er, your conclusion that they plotted to assassinate the Emperor based solely on this is still insufficient evidence!"
Li Ping said, "No evidence is needed. Just spread the word that Tatar experts have infiltrated the capital with the intention of assassinating the emperor."
"I think all the masters in the world will flock to the capital, making it impossible for them to move an inch."
These martial arts figures usually don't take the imperial court seriously, but if a foreign expert tries to assassinate the emperor, many of them won't stand idly by.
Zhao Shirong was silent for a moment: "What if... what if I guessed wrong?"
Li Ping laughed and said, "It's impossible to be wrong! If there were no expert assassins, it only proves that we were right and made the Tatars abandon their original plan to assassinate the emperor."
"It's a good opportunity for me to go to the capital and meet these Tatar experts to see if they really intend to do so."
Although this statement is quite absurd, upon closer examination, it makes some sense.
This is mobilizing all the masters in the martial arts world to besiege and wipe out these Tatar masters!
Having previously killed the Golden Wheel Monk, Li Ping obtained a "Time Crystal Sand," which proves that the "Time Crystal Sand" originated from supernatural powers.
Among the people he killed before were two superhumans, and now his "Breath of Creation" has reached 7 points.
However, he used 16 points of "Breath of Creation" for the last upgrade, and according to this pattern, he estimates that this upgrade will require 32 points.
Li Ping had no idea where he could find so many extraordinary people to kill.
Book lovers are all in the discussion area, chatting about the charm of Xianxia novels.
Therefore, if we gather the Tatar experts together and have a good fight, we can definitely advance another level this time.
If obtaining "Breath of Creation" allows for upgrades, can obtaining "Golden Sands of Time" also allow for upgrades? Is it possible that the amount obtained so far is insufficient?
Li Ping sighed inwardly. He had obtained a quick-learning version of the Nine Yin Manual, and his martial arts skills had improved rapidly recently, but his cultivation level had improved very slowly.
He is currently at the first level of the Innate Realm, refining essence into qi, while at the second level, refining qi into spirit, he has found direction with Zhang Sanfeng's guidance, but his cultivation is still very slow.
Zhang Sanfeng said at the time that he had deduced three methods to break through the innate level.
The first is "spirit," the second is "essence," and the third is "vital energy"...
Alternatively, one could try the latter two paths, which is also one of the reasons for leaving Murong Bo behind.
Leaving aside the martial arts passed down in Murong Bo's family, he also seems to have secretly learned quite a bit from Madam Wang, and then he also secretly learned so many of the unique skills of the Hundred Forest Sect...
If Rong'er can type these things out, she should be able to come up with some ideas for a quick breakthrough...
……
"What? Those people recently didn't die from the Star Absorbing Technique, but from the Northern Darkness Divine Art! The Star Absorbing Technique is just a fragment of the Northern Darkness Divine Art? And the Lesser Formless Skill, combined with the Northern Darkness Divine Art, can simulate the energy cultivation methods of various martial arts schools!"
"What? The Tatar Khan bestowed the Northern Darkness Divine Skill upon Tatar masters, allowing them to absorb the internal energy of the Central Plains people? They might even use various martial arts styles to kill and incite chaos within the martial arts world!"
"Damn it, how dare they be so arrogant!"
A martial arts expert slammed his fist on the table and exclaimed, "Even if the emperor is absurd, there was still a great victory at Yingzhou last time. It's not these foreign tribes' place to kill! What do they think of us martial arts practitioners?"
Another person said, "We must go to the capital." These Tatar masters! Emperor Hongwu and Emperor Yongle didn't manage to wipe them out completely back then; this time, let's wipe them all out in one fell swoop.
A large group of martial arts practitioners headed towards the capital.
Ding Dian looked at these people from the martial arts world and drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
He didn't know why he came to this era. Later, after making some inquiries in the martial arts world, he learned that he was an extraordinary person.
The extraordinary person possesses a blessing that can awaken supernatural powers. These powers cannot be taken away, but the blessing can be stolen. Many people in the martial arts world covet the blessing, which is why he did not reveal himself.
He had been feeling lost these past few days, unsure of what to do. He had come here, but surely Miss Ling wouldn't come.
Extraordinary people are all from the martial arts world, but she is not.
What should I do for the rest of my life?
Upon hearing this news, he could no longer sit still. If the emperor were truly assassinated, the world would descend into chaos, foreign tribes would invade again, and the Mongol Yuan dynasty would repeat itself. The people of the world would suffer terribly.
After all, he was a chivalrous person.
So, he's going!
This journey is not for the emperor, but for the people of the world!
……
Up in the restaurant.
A beautiful woman was sitting and drinking, but the waiter found her strange.
She's so pretty and doesn't look that old, but her voice sounds so old that it gives you the creeps.
"The Northern Darkness Divine Art? The Lesser Formless Art? Could it be Li Qiushui?"
"What a spineless wretch! You are from the Western Xia dynasty, surnamed Li. The Mongol Yuan dynasty destroyed your Western Xia and even took away your queen... Hah, and you actually betrayed us and joined the Tatars?"
"Then this old woman must also go to the capital. You wretched woman, are you in the capital?"
"Wait, I'm coming to kill you!"
The next moment, the seats were empty.
This startled the waiter so much that he fell to the ground and shouted, "A ghost! A ghost!"
