Chapter 526

In the residence by Jishui Pond.

The old Duke of Wei looked deeply at Li Rui who returned from outside the city.

"Peace Commissioner has great ability."

Since Li Rui returned, the result is self-evident.

He He Jiuxuan is probably already dead.

Although he had never fought He He Jiuxuan, he had seen him, and it was not difficult to see from his aura that this genius in the cultivation world was extremely powerful and had already opened up the Purple Mansion.

And this Lord Li in front of him had only broken through to Heaven-Image not many years ago.

At most, it was just the formation of the fetus.

Killing enemies across realms... isn't that great ability?

"Truly, the younger generation is formidable."

The old Duke of Wei sighed in his heart.

He asked himself that when he rode through the martial arts world back then, he was far from being as powerful as Li Rui.

Li Rui: "This also has the Duke's credit; I will enter the palace immediately, but whether it can be done is not something I can decide."

The Duke of Wei sighed lightly.

Then he bowed directly to Li Rui: "Thank you, Peace Commissioner."

Li Rui did not avoid it and accepted it calmly.

The Duke of Wei betraying the North Pole Demon Sect is equivalent to cutting off his own last retreat.

Truly a burning of the boats.

If Li Rui's trip to the Imperial Palace is fruitless, the Duke of Wei's mansion will face the disaster of extermination.

Li Rui cupped his hands.

Then he rushed towards the Imperial City.

It seemed that he had been waiting for a long time; Li Rui had just arrived at the Noon Gate when he saw Eunuch Zheng waiting under the gate.

Seeing Li Rui appear.

Eunuch Zheng's face showed a smile: "Lord Li, His Majesty is already in the Imperial Study."

"Please lead the way, Eunuch; I have important matters to discuss with His Majesty."

Li Rui said.

"Lord Li is too polite; His Majesty is also waiting for Lord Li."

Immediately.

Eunuch Zheng led Li Rui through one magnificent palace gate after another, and finally arrived at the Imperial Study.

"Your Majesty."

Li Rui saluted.

At this time, besides the Holy Emperor, Gu Gu Changsheng was also in the Imperial Study.

Gu Gu Changsheng looked at Li Rui with a smile and said nothing.

The Holy Emperor also had a smile on his face: "Mount Changqing, what is the result?"

Li Rui: "I did not fail His Majesty's trust; the minister has already killed He He Jiuxuan."

Hearing that He He Jiuxuan was dead.

The Holy Emperor was overjoyed and patted the armrest: "Good, Mount Changqing handles things properly."

Correct.

He and Gu Gu Changsheng both knew early on about Li Rui leaving the city.

It's just that the information they received was that Li Rui was going to use the means left by the City Lord of Donghai City to kill He He Jiuxuan, but in fact, Li Rui's senior uncle had never left any means for his descendants.

Li Rui killed He He Jiuxuan by relying on the Immortal Domain.

The Holy Emperor looked at Li Rui with full appreciation.

He knew He He Jiuxuan's identity as a genius disciple of Wan Wan Fadian in the cultivation world.

He had high prestige in the inner sect.

Li Rui killing He He Jiuxuan just happened to dampen the arrogance of the North Pole Demon Sect.

Now is not the time to be jealous of the capable; the more strong people in the Yu Kingdom, the happier he is.

Otherwise, if the court is full of officials who only know how to engage in petty schemes, who will deal with those wolf-like cultivators?

Gu Gu Changsheng then spoke: "Brother Li, don't worry; I have already found a way to cover up this matter, and others will only think it was my hand."

Li Rui showed joy.

Gu Gu Changsheng's move eliminated a great worry in his heart.

He then said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the Duke of Wei is still in my residence."

When he does things, of course, he won't leave handles for himself.

The Holy Emperor had long known about the Duke of Wei's matter.

Or rather.

Li Rui was the last path left by the Holy Emperor for the Duke of Wei.

Hearing the three words Duke of Wei.

The Holy Emperor's expression turned cold, and after pondering for a long time, he spoke: "The Duke of Wei helped me back then and didn't choose wrong in the end; the Yu Kingdom governs the world with benevolence and filial piety, so give him a good end."

The next day at the morning court.

Below the steps of the Taihe Gate, there was an extra special old man.

The Duke of Wei.

The Holy Emperor issued an edict on the spot.

Qi Kuang is the new Duke of Wei, but from Qi Kuang onwards, the lineage of the Duke of Wei must move to the capital, abolish the fief, and from then on, the Duke will be no different from those idle officials.

Never to regain the glory of the past.

To this, the old Duke of Wei had no complaints.

Living on is better than all dying.

The current ending is already the best ending for the Duke of Wei's mansion.

Of course.

For the Yu Kingdom's court, this matter is already a settled conclusion.

But for the Duke of Wei's mansion.

It is far from over; it has just begun.

Just as the Holy Emperor said, if the new Duke of Wei wants to move into the capital, he must clean up the old mansion first.

"The Holy Emperor's edict was for the Duke of Wei's mansion to move into the capital after the old Duke of Wei died; why?"

Li Rui lay under the old willow tree in the courtyard.

He said to Yuan An on the side leisurely.

"To give that old Duke the last bit of dignity?"

Yuan An blinked his eyes.

"Dignity?"

Li Rui chuckled: "Our Majesty is not someone who likes to give people dignity, otherwise the old National Teacher would not have ended up being locked in the black prison for nearly a hundred years."

Yuan An: "Then why?"

He knew that Li Rui was teaching him.

As the son of the Marquis of Annan.

Being called a Marquis is actually no different from a Duke.

The situation of that Duke of Wei might happen to the Marquis of Annan's mansion one day in the future.

So he listened extra carefully.

Li Rui: "His Majesty wants the old Duke to go back and clean up the house; if it's not cleaned up, the court will have people help clean it up."

"Clean up..."

Hearing this word.

Yuan An couldn't help but shiver.

He seemed to have seen the scene of the Duke of Wei's mansion killing its own children, a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

The struggle is so cruel.

If the Duke of Wei is reluctant to kill all those descendants who were once with the Purple Gold Palace and the Ghost Ming Sect to leave a clean Duke of Wei's mansion to enter the capital, then the Yu Kingdom's court will have a hundred reasons to prove that the Duke of Wei's mansion has the heart of rebellion.

Next, the Duke of Wei's mansion will welcome the iron hooves of the Marquis of Duke Dingyuan's army.

That will no longer be as simple as killing children, but there will be no survivors in the entire Duke of Wei's mansion.

How to choose is not difficult.

And with the old Duke of Wei's blood back then, he will definitely be able to do it well.

Li Rui just smiled faintly.

Others say it is the face of his Peace Commissioner.

But in reality, this is all a game between the Duke of Wei and the Holy Emperor.

The higher the position.

The worse the fall will be.

The end of the Duke of Wei makes Li Rui understand that when things are going well, one cannot be too wanton.

People, as long as they haven't become immortals, have a time when they are old.

Debts owed when young will still be settled when old.

Everyone is like this.

Whether it is an emperor or a great cultivator, it is the same.

Even in the cultivation world, it is not uncommon for great cultivators on the verge of death to be killed by the descendants of their enemies.

"Before the body, after the body, both are hard to complete."

Otherwise, some emperors are wise when they are young, but when they are old, they go crazy.

In the end, it is just fear of being settled.

Li Rui is much better in this regard.

Because when he was a groom in the Zhu family, he had already experienced that taste.

The taste of worrying every day when sleeping that he wouldn't be smothered by his apprentice Ma Yang with a pillow is really not good.

Only those who have experienced it know.

Precisely because of this, his temperament and concentration can far exceed ordinary people.

Say it again.

What makes a person's temperament grow is experience, not age.

Those cultivators who hide in the mountains to practice all day, no matter how many cycles they have practiced, their temperament will not change.

By comparison, Li Rui has experienced a lot.

North Plains.

Holy Mountain, in the magnificent palace on the top of the mountain.

"Fellow Daoist Huang Long, Junior Nephew He's life tablet is broken, and the people in the hall already know."

Sima Mo looked at Huang Huang Long Zi standing opposite him.

A flash of dread flashed in his eyes.

Although he is the Sect Master of this North Pole Immortal Sect, in reality, the influence of this Huang Huang Long Zi in front of him is far above him, and his strength is unfathomable.

You must know.

As early as in the cultivation world, Huang Huang Long Zi was already a Body Integration, and he was only a Purple Mansion.

Counting it, he is still Huang Huang Long Zi's junior.

He He Jiuxuan had a high status in the inner sect of Wan Wan Fadian.

Now that he is dead, Wan Wan Fadian naturally wants an explanation.

Or rather, He He Jiuxuan's Heaven-Man Realm master, that is, Huang Huang Long Zi's junior brother, needs an explanation.

Huang Huang Long Zi spoke lightly:

"The time has not yet come."

"Time?"

Sima Mo raised his eyebrows, then widened his eyes suddenly: "Fellow Daoist Huang Long, are you going to break through?"

Huang Huang Long Zi smiled slightly: "Soon."
