Chapter 123

"Sword Demon! Dugu Qiubai!"

"Another Sword Dao master!"

"Everyone look, in such a short time, how many Sword Dao masters have appeared."

"It can be seen that Sword Dao is the Emperor of all Daos!"

"Yes, who says it isn't!"

"Learning the sword, the chance of standing out is still high!"

Li Changsheng heard the discussion of the onlookers.

A trace of a faint smile flashed across his face.

People learning the sword in the world are like carp crossing the river!

However, how many can actually make a name for themselves!

At this time.

Golden light was seen flashing on the Azure Cloud List in the firmament again!

It was that new figures had made the list!

【Ninth place on the Nine Provinces Azure Cloud List — Zhu Wushi!】

【Identity: Master of the Great Ming Dynasty's Dragon Protection Villa, Imperial Uncle of the Great Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao, titled Iron-Gall God Marquis!】

【Before the late Emperor of Great Ming passed away, he feared that Zhu Houzhao was too young, might be manipulated by treacherous people, would be unable to preside over the government, and would not know how to distinguish between the loyal and the treacherous. Therefore, he specifically ordered his younger brother, Zhu Wushi, to establish the "Dragon Protection Villa," granting it power that could override all other imperial institutions, and bestowed upon him the two supreme treasures of the "Iron Certificate of Merit" and the "Imperial Execution Sword," which could be used to execute incompetent rulers above and treacherous ministers below.】

【Therefore, Zhu Wushi could be said to have reached the pinnacle of officialdom in the Great Ming Dynasty, one person below ten thousand, and even the Emperor Zhu Houzhao, he did not put in his eyes!】

【The secret agents of the Dragon Protection Villa were each the strongest elites carefully selected from hundreds or even thousands of people; these people went to special places to follow special figures to learn martial arts, and only after having the strength of a Grandmaster level could they become secret agents.】

【Zhu Wushi used these secret agents to gather intelligence from all over the world, forming a very huge Heaven Net that shrouded the Jianghu of the Great Ming.】

【Zhu Wushi himself had peerless martial arts, was a great traitor who appeared loyal, had great ambition, deep hidden motives, and was single-mindedly wanting to become the Emperor of the Great Ming!】

【He used the Dragon Protection Villa to secretly develop his own forces and eavesdrop on others' privacy, and used this to control the Ten Great Generals, intending to depose the Emperor and usurp the throne at an appropriate time.】

【Zhu Wushi possessed peerless divine arts such as the 'Art of Absorbing Energy', 'Universe Great Shift', and 'Flower-Plucking Finger'.】

【Thirty years ago, he once killed 108 experts from various sects in the Great Ming Jianghu in a battle at Taihu Lake, and absorbed all their internal energy, and also framed his sworn brother, the Invincible Playful Child Gu Santong, for this matter.】

【Martial Cultivation Realm: Ninth Rank of the Heavenly Man Realm!】

【Potential Index: Twelve stars!】

【Combat Power Index: Twenty stars!】

【Danger Index: Ten stars!】

【Current Age: Fifty-three years old!】

【Lifespan: Fifty-three years old!】

【Reward: 'Other Shore Divine Formula', the supreme martial art of the Buddhist faith; when practiced to the highest realm, one can reach the Other Shore!】

【'Li Fire Divine Sword', a divine sword that can catalyze the Vermilion Bird Li Fire.】

Wow!

Zhu Wushi making the list.

Immediately detonated the entire scene.

Everyone in the entire restaurant was stunned by Zhu Wushi!

"Good fellow!"

"To think the Great Ming Dynasty has an Imperial Uncle who wants to rebel!"

"This Zhu Wushi has much greater power than that so-called Prince Taiping!"

"Iron-Gall God Marquis, one person below ten thousand!"

"And he's still not satisfied with this?"

"Still wants to usurp the throne?"

"This guy has a huge appetite!"

"Yes, the throne of the Great Ming Emperor Zhu Houzhao is truly very difficult to sit on!"

"Who says it isn't!"

Lian Chengbi and Duan Yu, seeing this, were also quite shocked on the side.

Lian Chengbi said, "The Great Ming Dynasty is, after all, a place with strong national power."

"I didn't expect there to be so much internal strife."

"Now, it will be difficult for this Zhu Wushi to end this!"

Duan Yu nodded and said, "Yes, imperial infighting has always been the most cruel."

"The Great Ming Dynasty, it seems, is going to suffer a great blow."

"However, looking at this Zhu Wushi's lifespan, it is only fifty-three years old!"

"Could it be that he will fail in this struggle?"

Lian Chengbi said, "Who knows!"

"Perhaps that Great Ming Emperor still has some trump cards!"

Guo Xiang, on the side, asked Li Changsheng, "Big Brother Nangong, can this Zhu Wushi's rebellion succeed?"

Li Changsheng smiled faintly and said, "This, I really cannot guess."

……

Great Ming Dynasty.

The capital.

Imperial Palace.

Zhu Houzhao had just walked out of the first palace gate.

Just met Cao Zhengchun.

Cao Zhengchun said to Zhu Houzhao respectfully, "Your Majesty."

"This Dragon Protection Villa has already been managed by Zhu Tie Dan to be impenetrable, and it's all his people."

"Your Majesty, you must be extremely careful going to Dragon Protection Villa."

Zhu Houzhao heard this and said faintly, "I, the Emperor, naturally know that Dragon Protection Villa is Zhu Wushi's territory!"

"But, how can one catch a tiger cub without entering the tiger's den!"

"I just want to see just how far Zhu Wushi's courage has grown!"

"What's more, didn't I summon you here!"

"With you, Cao Zhengchun, here, I believe you will protect me thoroughly!"

Cao Zhengchun immediately said with a grateful expression, "Your Majesty, rest assured, I, Cao Zhengchun, will definitely do my utmost!"

"To protect Your Majesty thoroughly!"

Zhu Houzhao nodded and was about to exit the second palace gate.

At this time.

Golden light was seen flashing brilliantly on the Azure Cloud List in the firmament.

Between the flickering golden light.

Zhu Wushi's great name appeared prominently on the Azure Cloud List.

This action.

Zhu Houzhao widened his eyes directly.

Staring fixedly at the Azure Cloud List.

The more he looked, the uglier his expression became!

After he finished reading all the information about Zhu Wushi.

Zhu Houzhao felt as if he were standing on the edge of an abyss!

"What a good Zhu Wushi!"

"Truly my good Imperial Uncle!"

"You really gave me a big surprise!"
