Chapter 268

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs trained by the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi possessed the Phantom Divine Art and the ability to dissolve true Qi in coordination. A normal strike hitting their bodies would be like hitting a copper wall or iron barrier. If these people united, their ability to dissolve true Qi would be nine times stronger than the Four Ghosts of Xiangxi.

"Subduing Dragon Regrets!"

Gu Qing swept his hand and struck out with a palm.

The leading Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs stood still, concentrating their minds, just about to resist. When it reached close, they realized it was unstoppable and hurriedly used the Phantom Divine Art to flash away. The two people beside them were their partners; seeing the situation was bad, they each used their moves. The three of them joined forces and barely avoided it, but the person behind was caught off guard, took the palm directly, and exploded all over on the spot!

"What is going on?"

These Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs were divided into groups of four. Inside, there were people who were close and people who were distant. With someone in this group dying, the others immediately became angry and hateful.

"This person's palm force is solid and mellow, truly unstoppable."

After that leading group retreated, they said in their mouths.

The Thirty-Six Heavenly Gangs instantly became thirty-five people, their figures changed, and they attacked Gu Qing with hands and feet.

Gu Qing's figure was swaying. His left hand used the palm techniques of the Moving Flower Palace, the palm force being three parts empty and one part solid, secretly containing Moving Flowers and Grafting Jade. His right palm continued to use the Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms' Divine Dragon Wags Its Tail. One was light and ethereal, prosperous and unpredictable; the other was solid and pure, condensed and unstoppable. With these two fused, Gu Qing's palm led the formation, his hands struck the enemy's legs, and his body bumped and tripped. These thirty-five Heavenly Gangs pulled and led each other, the formation fell into chaos, and a large group fell down with a clatter.

And Gu Qing's figure was light and swaying. He circled around these thirty-five Heavenly Gangs, his palms striking and fingers poking, all hitting the skulls. After circling around, the thirty-five Heavenly Gangs died one after another. At this moment, Gu Qing's figure turned and rose, his palm force wrapped around the blood flowing from the thirty-five Heavenly Gangs, and he headed toward the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis!

"Heavenly Gang Child Art!"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's figure naturally manifested Gang Qi, taking Gu Qing's palm strike head-on.

"Sure enough."

Gu Qing saw the Heavenly Gang Child Art and knew that Cao Zhengchun had indeed met with misfortune, but he teased in his mouth, "Iron-Gall Godly Marquis, you are not a child, how can you use the Heavenly Gang Child Art?"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's expression turned cold. Being deceived by Gu Santong, this non-child body, not going to practice the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, became the pain of the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's life. Gu Qing's teasing at this moment hit his pain point exactly.

"Gu Qing, who lives and who dies is not yet certain!"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis shouted angrily.

All along, the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis had been enduring. He had been painstakingly cultivating, painstakingly watering, and painstakingly waiting for the opportunity. But after Gu Qing appeared, he directly disrupted the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's layout, especially the intention to clear Gu Santong's name, which completely hit the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's vital point.

Therefore, the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis took advantage of Cao Zhengchun being hammered into severe injury by Gu Qing, struck fiercely, took this opportunity to plunder all of Cao Zhengchun's internal energy, and immediately forced the palace, wanting to take the Emperor one step ahead and win everything.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Near this palace gate, drum sounds came, one sound after another matching the heartbeat. It was exactly a set of superior sound wave techniques. After this technique was activated, it immediately shook Gu Qing's mind.

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis also at this time reached out to lead, flew forward, and shot toward Gu Qing's forehead.

Vajra Indestructible Divine Art!

Gu Qing immediately used this art, his whole body was golden, and amidst the operation of Gang Qi, Gu Qing's eyes were clear, staring at all of the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's moves, and subsequent changes also appeared in his mind.

"Star-Shifting!"

Gu Qing reached out and turned. The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis, who was just about to move forward, suddenly felt his true Qi reverse and rush toward his face. He was in the air and had not yet reached Gu Qing's front before he did a somersault himself.

This Murong family's Star-Shifting focused on rebounding. A person's strength hitting a wall, no matter how heavy the strike, the damage received by oneself is just as heavy. It's just that this martial art turning normal moves and weapons is easy, but turning formless true Qi is very difficult. And at this moment, Gu Qing's hand of Star-Shifting, in terms of brilliance, had already far surpassed the ancestors of the Murong family.

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis flew up again, coming forward with bare hands. Gu Qing reached out and pushed, another move of Moving Flowers and Grafting Jade. This palm force had not reached Gu Qing's chest before it struck his own chest. The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis used his fingers, and seeing Gu Qing's palm force was ethereal, he brushed his wrist, and like a finger, it poked his own body again.

With these two moves, the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis was beaten inexplicably, only feeling his true Qi was not right, his moves were not working, and Gu Qing had clearly opened the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, his defense was invincible, and the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis was unable to touch the opponent instead.

"Shaolin Prajna Palm."

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis tried several times, but Gu Qing's moves were like the wind, swift and fast, often able to anticipate the enemy's opportunities, grabbing one step ahead, making the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's moves not even half-used before the remaining half-move had already hit his own body. Clearly his internal energy had greatly improved, and he had protective techniques like the Heavenly Gang Child Art, but against Gu Qing, hands were not hands, feet were not feet, and every move seemed to be a mistake.

"Slap!"

"Slap!"

"Slap!"

"Slap!"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis propped up the protective shield of the Heavenly Gang Child Art, feeling his whole body being pulled like a spinning top, completely unable to fight back, just watching how Gu Qing pulled him.

"Bang!"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis hit the city wall with his whole body. This huge impact made the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's head buzz. Thinking of the past, he felt that when he fought Gu Qing before, he could often use internal energy to suppress Gu Qing, but now Gu Qing had opened the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, and this body of martial arts had received a blessing, already steadily above him.

"Qi-Breaking Style!"

Gu Qing joined his fingers like a sword, poking toward the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's front. At the fingertips, there seemed to be faint electric currents. With such a booming poke, it pierced through the protective shield of the Heavenly Gang Child Art and pointed at the Godly Marquis's chest.

"Puff!"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis spat out a mouthful of blood, and then felt Gu Qing reach out to lead, his own massive true Qi surging out, like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, flowing toward Gu Qing's body.

"Sucking Power Great Art!"

Gu Qing used this move without hesitation. Under this Sucking Power Great Art, the various true Qi of various experts that the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis had absorbed over the years, and various true Qi operation methods, appeared in Gu Qing's mind one by one. The Heavenly Gang Child Art, Universe Great Shift, Phantom Divine Art, etc., were all mastered by Gu Qing.

For every bit of internal breath the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis lost, Gu Qing's aura became stronger by a bit. After the internal energy of more than two hundred people was transferred to Gu Qing's body, Zhu Wushi's hair was already gray, and he was on the verge of death.

His imperial ambitions had also gone down the drain.

"You... you..."

Zhu Wushi crawled on the ground, looked up at Gu Qing, the bright moon wheel was behind Gu Qing's head, giving Gu Qing a layer of holy halo.

"Good has good rewards, evil has evil rewards; it's not that there is no reward, the time has not yet arrived."

Gu Qing said lightly, "Gu Santong is already about to recover, Suxin is also about to return to Gu Santong's side, and the child Suxin bore for Gu Santong is also at Gu Santong's side. And you, you might have to enter the ninth layer of the prison."

Suxin bore a child for Gu Santong?

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis really didn't know this news, but after Gu Qing said it, the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis understood what it meant to kill the heart.

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis had always thought he had won against Gu Santong for a lifetime, but he didn't expect that he could never compare to Gu Santong in his lifetime.

The chaotic night in the capital finally passed, and the sun rose as usual.

Inside the Imperial Palace, Duan Tianya and Shangguan Haitang looked at the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis wearing shackles, really not expecting that the mastermind of this chaotic night was actually their foster father.

But now the witnesses and material evidence were all present, the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis's expression was decadent, and he did not argue.

"The Japanese assassins who attacked the Eastern Depot are here."

Guihai Yidao came from outside, carrying two people wearing black clothes in his hands, and said coldly, "The two of them have already confessed that it was they who attacked the Eastern Depot, set fires, and when the Master and Zhu Wushi were fighting, it was also these people who used sound wave techniques."

Guihai Yidao looked at the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis, his eyes containing hatred.

His mother's death, and the appearance of the saber manual in the Eastern Depot, were all Zhu Wushi's traps.

The Emperor looked at those two people, seeing them dazed and trembling, and asked for the reason.

"It is the Abi Path Three Sabers."

Guihai Yidao's eyes contained fear, and he said, "The Master saw that my heart was not dead, so he used the Abi Path Three Sabers on me. That is a saber technique that only exists in hell. The Master's saber did not touch these two people, but these two people already felt the mountain of sabers pressing on their bodies, retribution was about to arrive, and they were directly scared silly."

The Abi Path Three Sabers is a demonic saber, and Guihai Yidao considered himself unable to control it.

The Emperor understood this and asked, "Where is your Master?"

The Iron-Gall Godly Marquis was done for, Cao Zhengchun was also done for, the Emperor's throne was stable, and he thought of the number one great hero, Gu Qing. "The Master acts without contention. Seeing that the capital has stabilized, he took the two Mistresses to walk the Jianghu."

Guihai Yidao said truthfully.

The Emperor rose from the dragon throne and asked, "Did he say where he was going?"

"The Master is like a wild crane, with no fixed abode."

Guihai Yidao replied.

The Emperor pondered and nodded, saying, "Gu Guo Guo Daxia is unrestrained and free, walking the Jianghu, easily misunderstood and making enemies. In this way, I will confer Gu Guo Guo Daxia as the State-Protecting Great Master, holding the Shangfang Sword, able to supervise officials, with the power to execute first and report later. In this way, people in the Jianghu will not dare to make things difficult."

Duan Tianya heard this and smiled bitterly.

In the world today, who would make things difficult for the world's number one expert?

The Emperor looked at Duan Tianya and others, changed the Dragon-Protecting Shanzhuang to the People-Protecting Shanzhuang, and let Duan Tianya fully control it to continue operating.

"Big Brother, I will continue to operate the World's Number One Shanzhuang to help you!"

Shangguan Haitang looked at Duan Tianya, containing affection.

Guihai Yidao saw this, silently lowered his eyes, and thought of when Gu Qing left, he taught him a set of "Reverse Nine Yin," saying that if he ever felt frustrated in love, he should think more about the positive and reverse Nine Yin, and try to go against the common sense of martial arts to practice a set of Sorrowful Soul-Severing Sabers.

!

"Haitang..."

Guihai Yidao took the initiative to speak. The Master felt he couldn't take down Haitang, and Guihai Yidao wanted to prove himself.

Outside the capital.

"Why did you divide up the world's unparalleled internal energy?"

Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu snuggled in Gu Qing's arms and asked curiously.

Gu Qing used the Sucking Power Great Art to absorb all of the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis Zhu Wushi's internal energy, but after that, he transferred this internal energy to Duan Tianya, Shangguan Haitang, Guihai Yidao, Cheng Shifei, and Princess Yunluo, and his own internal energy returned to its usual state.

"I was just comprehending the mental method."

Gu Qing said with a smile.

The wonder of the Sucking Power Great Art is that it can mix various internal energies into one. Gu Qing, relying on the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art and the Sucking Power Great Art to reorganize the internal energy in his body, had already greatly improved his own martial arts. As for the internal energy he absorbed, Gu Qing didn't care for it either, so he distributed it to a few disciples, which could be considered giving them a little help.

"But you didn't give it to us."

Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu pouted.

"Sigh..."

Gu Qing frowned and said, "How could I inject other men's things into your bodies? Of course, I have to give you something better."

While speaking, Gu Qing took out a Tianshan Snow Lotus and said to the Yagyu sisters, "After taking this Tianshan Snow Lotus, it can enhance internal energy, which will naturally be of great benefit to the two of you."

Yagyu Yuki and Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu leaned over, looking at the Tianshan Snow Lotus Gu Qing took out.

"This is something from the Imperial Palace, right?"

Yagyu Yuki asked.

"Of course!"

Gu Qing said.

"Did the Emperor give it to you?"

Yagyu Yuki asked.

"No one wanted it even if it was left there."

Gu Qing said calmly, "So I just picked it up."

"..."

"..."

The Yagyu sisters were speechless for a moment.

"Don't worry."

Gu Qing embraced the two and said, "No one knows about this. Even if the Emperor wants to investigate, he will likely feel that this was done by Zhu Wushi, who is evil by nature."

Yagyu Yuki became even more silent, but Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu laughed out loud.

Anyway, the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis had done many bad things, so one more wouldn't matter.

The carriage moved forward leisurely. Gu Qing saw a person standing in front of the road, with some wine intent on his face, looking at Gu Qing, and bowing his hands repeatedly.

"Zhang Jinjiu, what a coincidence."

Gu Qing greeted with a smile.

"Not a coincidence, not a coincidence."

Zhang Jinjiu held a wine pot, walked up, and said, "I heard about the events in the capital and specifically came here to see you."

Gu Qing's eyes contained surprise; his interaction with Zhang Jinjiu was very shallow.

"I also heard about Gu Santong's affair at Taihu Lake back then and felt there were suspicious points, but the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis was selfless, so I didn't investigate in detail. It wasn't until today that I knew there was another injustice, and the mastermind of all this was the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis."

Zhang Jinjiu felt the confusion of his life was solved and presented a pot of wine to Gu Qing.

"This is a jar of the world's number one Daughter Red brewed in Shaoxing more than twenty years ago."

Zhang Jinjiu contained heartache and said, "Originally I couldn't find it, but recently Wan Sanqian loosened his mouth, so I got this from the world's number one wine god. Gu Guo Guo Daxia cleared away the treacherous officials for the imperial court and retired after success. I truly admire you. This little bit of heart is for Gu Guo Guo Daxia."

Gu Qing took the wine solemnly.

Zhang Jinjiu swayed and said goodbye to Gu Qing.

Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu leaned in front of Gu Qing, her face flushed, and asked deliberately, "What does Daughter Red mean?"

"In Shaoxing, Zhejiang, when a daughter makes her first cry, they brew wine and bury it under an osmanthus tree. When the daughter gets married, they give this wine to the husband's family, so it is called Daughter Red."

Gu Qing explained to Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu.

Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu's fingertips gently brushed Gu Qing's chest and asked, "Then when can we drink this pot of Daughter Red?"

Gu Qing looked at Rikugawa Piaoxu's pretty appearance, immediately embraced Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu, and wanted to go into the carriage to do business.

"My sister is still young."

Yagyu Yuki, who had been silent, immediately called out.

"Not young anymore!"

Yagyu Rikugawa Piaoxu said urgently.

"It doesn't matter even if she is young."

Gu Qing said, "I can ripen her!"

Who let her already become the appearance of Yuanyuan.
