Chapter 465: Your subject has a plan that can monitor all officials!

~8 min read 1,565 words

As these words from Gao Yang rang out.

A hint of being moved appeared in Wu Zhao's pair of icy phoenix eyes.

"Once this bunch of martial arts world people hears that the Li family and the Wang family have been wiped out one after another, plus the imperial court's fueling of the flames behind the scenes, they will surely take the bait one by one!"

"This plan is truly vicious!"

She sighed.

The entire Imperial Study fell into absolute silence.

As Gao Yang said, the dead cannot refute rumors.

The entire Li family, hundreds of people, had been slaughtered by this 'Crossing-River Dragon' Tian Ye; even the earthworms in the estate had been split in two. In other words, those who knew the truth and those who had a certain degree of credibility to the outside world were all gone.

Whether the matter was true or false, no one would ever know.

Those from the same generation as the Li family ancestors were even less than dust.

Coupled with the story Gao Yang had meticulously fabricated, once it spread, it would surely make the entire martial arts world boil over, plunging it into contention and endless slaughter!

Wu Zhao glanced at Gao Yang, her eyes full of complexity.

This fellow's letter had even blocked every possible loophole.

Furthermore, his calculation of the human heart was precise to the slightest degree.

No matter which martial arts expert obtained this peerless manual, the Sunflower Manual, once they practiced it, they would never spread word of its drawbacks!

Gao Yang chuckled, his smile becoming increasingly terrifying.

"Your Majesty, the viciousness of this plan lies in the fact that if one obtains this Sunflower Manual martial arts secret, if they don't practice it, they cannot determine its authenticity; if they do practice it, it means they have been fooled."

"And the consequence of becoming a real eunuch ensures they won't leak a single word to the outside!"

"They might even be eager for other experts or their rivals to practice it!"

"This secret is enough to keep them quiet for a long time!"

"And looking at human nature, people are more inclined to believe in a manual obtained through such intense slaughter. As long as the Sunflower Manual is in their hands, they will fall into a huge contradiction."

"If they don't practice, they'll be itching with curiosity and unwilling to give up; if they do practice, well, once they start, they won't make a sound."

"And the cruelest part is, the very first sentence I included, 'To practice this art, one must first castrate oneself,' tells the martial arts expert who obtains the manual that even if they follow the moves in the manual without castrating themselves, it's useless."

"This is the most ruthless part of the plan!"

Watching the smile on Gao Yang's face and listening to these words, images of various martial arts experts obtaining the Sunflower Manual flashed through Wu Zhao's mind.

That immense suspicion...

And the unbearable itch, the longing for the martial arts manual...

The struggle of whether to castrate oneself or not...

But whether it was the mysterious story of the Li family ancestors or the eight big characters of the Sunflower Manual, everything—even their immense internal struggle—was actually designed by Gao Yang.

Everything, Gao Yang had long since anticipated.

But driven by human nature and immense greed, they could only do exactly as Gao Yang had designed!

"Your subject originally thought about adding one last sentence: 'If one does not castrate oneself, one can also succeed,' but I decided against it."

"That is rather a pity..."

Gao Yang said with a look of regret.

Wu Zhao's mouth twitched, and black lines appeared on her forehead.

If things went according to Gao Yang's way, some expert would surely harden their heart, chop it off, and then upon practicing to the end, discover that sentence—they would probably vomit blood on the spot.

She shook her head, unable to resist opening the Sunflower Manual again, looking at the moves of the little figure in the illustrations, and then asked.

"I see that every move of the little figure in this manual is filled with an indescribable charm. Did you just scribble these?"

Seeing this, Gao Yang first glanced at the Sunflower Manual in Wu Zhao's hand, and incidentally glanced at the fullness beneath her dragon robe.

He replied, "To fool such martial arts experts, naturally, it cannot be too outrageous. The Sunflower Manual in Your Majesty's hands is actually a genuine set of physical fitness exercises!"

"Your Majesty can perform a set according to the moves in this Sunflower Manual every day at sunrise; it can train the physique and strengthen the body!"

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes showed surprise, and she looked at Gao Yang a bit more.

This Gao Yang was simply omnipotent; he even knew physical fitness techniques!

"What is the original name of this physical fitness technique?"

"It shouldn't be called the Sunflower Manual, right?"

Wu Zhao continued to ask.

Gao Yang nodded repeatedly, "Your Majesty is wise. The Sunflower Manual is just a name; its content is composed of two sets of physical fitness methods, respectively named 'Seven-Colored Sunshine' and 'Dancing Youth'!"

"These 'Seven-Colored Sunshine' and 'Dancing Youth' are each divided into seven sections, consisting of stretching exercises, chest-expanding exercises, and so on; they can strengthen the body!"

Wu Zhao looked surprised and muttered to herself.

"'Seven-Colored Sunshine' and 'Dancing Youth'?"

"These names are not bad!"

Gao Yang's face was full of smiles, looking completely calm.

In fact, the content of this Sunflower Manual had an even more familiar name—'The Third National Radio Gymnastics'!

Let these martial arts experts practice their hearts out; once they start, they won't make a sound.

It was fortunate that Gao Yang had done them so many times as a child, otherwise he really wouldn't have remembered every single move.

Wu Zhao's slender fingers slowly flipped through the title page of the Sunflower Manual, making a crisp sound, and then her icy voice rang out.

"In the Changan area, there is another martial arts family, the Wang family, which has also been passed down for over a hundred years."

"Behind the scenes, they not only collude with martial arts experts but also have close dealings with some officials in the court, bullying the common people. Just follow your plan to use them as the target and stir up martial arts world strife!"

"This bunch of martial arts world people is due for a major cleansing!"

Wu Zhao's voice was extremely calm, but behind it lay a cold, extreme killing intent.

Hearing this, Gao Yang revealed a smile.

He immediately replied, "Your Majesty is wise. Once this plan is launched, it will surely make those martial arts experts feel 'so good'!"

"For this bunch of martial arts experts, the temptation of beauties is not great, but a peerless manual is something they must seek in this life!"

"After the Wang family is wiped out, I will order the major teahouses and restaurants to spread the story of the Li family ancestors, guiding public opinion, and perhaps that 'Crossing-River Dragon' will also become a 'Castrated Dragon'!"

Wu Zhao looked deeply at Gao Yang and couldn't help but say with amusement, "So, the grudge of you being assassinated by martial arts experts earlier is also being settled along the way this time?"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yang shook his head immediately.

"Your Majesty, I still stand by my previous words; I have absolutely no selfish motives!" Gao Yang bowed and thumped his chest with his fist, "My heart is full of righteousness for Da Qian!"

Wu Zhao looked at the righteous-faced Gao Yang and chose to selectively ignore these words.

Instead, her phoenix eyes carried a hint of sorrow.

"Once this plan is launched, it can significantly reduce the threat of the martial arts world people!"

"But the dignity of the imperial court has been uncontrollably weakened during this period. Expecting the Dali Temple and the Ministry of Justice to quickly capture a martial arts expert with high-level skills is truly as difficult as ascending to heaven!"

"A full night has passed, but the Ministry of Justice and the Dali Temple know nothing about this 'Crossing-River Dragon' Tian Ye, except for the message the killer left behind. It truly infuriates me!"

Wu Zhao spoke with a sense of anger.

After listening, Gao Yang slowly said, "Your Majesty, this 'Crossing-River Dragon' Tian Ye might not even be a real martial arts world title."

Wu Zhao's phoenix eyes tightened upon hearing this.

"Are you saying this might be a deceptive tactic by the killer?"

Gao Yang nodded, "It is not impossible. If it were me, after wiping out the entire Li family, I would only leave behind the nicknames of other martial arts experts."

"Preferably those of my enemies!"

"For example, the Cui family, Cui Xinghe!"

"'General Pimp, your grandfather Wang Zhong is here!'"

Wu Zhao: "..."

Wu Zhao stared at Gao Yang's matter-of-fact face, and she had to admit that Gao Yang was truly capable of doing such a thing!

And he was extremely skilled and practiced at it.

"I still believe that these martial arts world people are overly arrogant, which is why they dared to leave their own names. Otherwise, at this rate, I fear the case won't be solved for years." ===== CHAPTER 467 =====
