"Gu Guo Guo Daxia subdued the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis and repelled the Japanese pirates. Your martial arts are unparalleled. This old monk admires you."

"Master Liaojie's Lion Roar and Great Sorrow Palm are indeed extraordinary."

"How dare I, how dare I. This old monk is willing to offer all the martial arts manuals, only asking Gu Guo Guo Daxia to leave this old monk some face and not let this old monk follow the path of Young Master Wuchen."

"The monk likes to follow the back path?"

"..."

"Young Master Wuchen was just stubborn. He lost in hidden weapons, lost in lightness skills, and still wanted to hide things. I had no choice but to use the Sucking Power Great Art to plunder his internal energy and comprehend his mental method. However, I returned all his internal energy using the Wedding Dress Divine Art."

"..."

"Can I go to Shaolin to see the manuals?"

"Gu Santong refuses to leave the prison?"

"Reporting to Master, Gu Santong said that Master is already the undisputed world's number one, and he is unwilling to be under Master, so he simply lives in the prison. Recently, the Emperor has taken good care of him, letting the world's number one craftsman open skylights for him, clear ventilation ducts, and arrange the house. He and Suxin live quite peacefully inside the prison."

"Tianya, what about your foster father?"

"Foster father lives next door to Gu Santong, with chains on his body and no internal energy. He has been on the verge of death several times, but has been saved by Sai Huatuo and Sai Shennong."

"... The three of them living their lives well is more important than anything."

"Gu Guo Guo Daxia, please save my life!"

"I know, the Emperor is preparing to kill you, but I have no way either. Who told you to be the richest man and also entangled with the Iron-Gall Godly Marquis..."

"I have already compromised with the Emperor, mainly because of Guihai Yidao. He obtained the internal energy you gifted and came to handle my case. Please be sure to persuade him not to use his saber on me."

"Why would Yidao use his saber on you?"

"Because I forced Haitang to marry me."

"Happy!"

The tenth year of Daye, April, Liaodong City.

One of the three great masters who shook the world, Fu Cailin, sat high on the city tower, looking at the Sui army that had come from afar. This was already Yang Guang's third expedition against Goguryeo.

"The year before last, Yang Guang mobilized one million people, divided into three routes to attack Goguryeo. At that time, we feigned surrender repeatedly, then used ambushes to make Yang Guang return in a great defeat. Last year, Yang Guang mobilized the world's troops again to attack Goguryeo, which happened to coincide with Yang Xuangan's rebellion, making Yang Guang return without success again."

Fu Cailin's appearance was extremely ugly, and his facial features were extremely uncoordinated, but such a person became one of the three great masters in the world, and everything he sought was perfection.

"The current Sui Dynasty's internal farmland has missed the season, the fields are desolate, the people are poor, and smoke is everywhere. This time coming to Goguryeo should be Yang Guang's last time. I'm just afraid that Yang Guang will use his last breath to try to eat us up. That would be terrible."

Fu Cailin seemed to see the worst chess game. The current Fu Cailin thought hard, looking for a divine move in this chaotic chess game, looking for the key to turning defeat into victory.

"Although Yang Guang mobilized the world's troops, the current Sui Dynasty is already weak, most of the world's troops cannot arrive, the soldiers are also fleeing, and having experienced two disastrous defeats, the Sui people feel that coming to conquer Goguryeo is like going to death. We still have the advantage."

The disciple of the Yi Sword Master, Fu Junqiang, found the optimistic side of the situation.

Fu Cailin nodded and said, "In terms of military morale, we are stronger, but for the morale of the two armies, the most important thing is to look at the general. If the general can charge into the formation, the subordinates will not fear death. This time, I heard that in the Sui army, there is a person named Gu Qing, with a copper head and iron forehead, not fearing death. We must be vigilant."

Fu Junqiang stood tall and said, "Disciple will go and kill him now!"

As a disciple of one of the current three great masters, Fu Cailin, Fu Junqiang's martial arts were already accomplished, so she could be brought by Fu Cailin to see this battle situation.

The Sui army was like a tide, already gathered.

Fu Cailin narrowed his eyes slightly, looked far away, and at this moment, his gaze crossed the tide of soldiers in front of him, seeing the carriage, the commander's flag, and the Sui Emperor Yang Guang sitting inside.

The current Yang Guang was at his most proud moment in his life. In the process from Prince of Jin to Emperor, Yang Guang was intelligent and forbearing, and after ascending to the peak of power, Yang Guang revealed his ambition, created the imperial examination, dug the Grand Canal, managed the Western Regions, personally conquered Tuyuhun... and even the current expedition against Goguryeo.

Abusing the people's strength and the dead laborers were not worth worrying about for Yang Guang. The Goguryeo that had troubled him for a long time was about to be removed, making Yang Guang feel infinite satisfaction.

At this peak of power, Yang Guang's spirit was high, but after meeting Fu Cailin's gaze, he felt a chill in his heart, as if at this moment, his fate was already decided.

!

But after this shock, Yang Guang looked at Fu Cailin, laughed loudly, and then waved his hand. The Sui army's swords and spears in front of him were like a forest, and they shouted loudly.

This kind of spirit and this kind of confidence made Fu Cailin feel something was wrong.

Fu Cailin slowly lowered his eyes, his gaze looking at the person at the very front of the armies. That person was in a green shirt, not wearing armor, and not even riding a horse. And when Fu Cailin looked at this person, he did not feel the sense of a heavenly person, thinking that this person should not be a great master.

"Is this the copper-headed and iron-foreheaded Gu Qing?"

Just as Fu Cailin was hesitating, he saw Gu Qing turn into a green shadow, rushing toward the Liaodong City in front of him. That figure was blurry in an instant, faster than an arrow, and even faster than a sword. Even though Fu Cailin was one of the world's three great masters, with superior vision, he had never seen such speed.

Like thunder and lightning, blinking an eye, he was already close!

"Clang!"

Fu Cailin operated the Yi Sword. At this moment, his mental power was highly concentrated. Knowing that his speed was not as good as Gu Qing's, Fu Cailin relied on the Yi Sword technique to see through the opportunity, the sword tip took the lead, turned into a circular arc, and after the two collided, Fu Cailin only felt Gu Qing's internal energy was extremely deep and his strength was extremely great. Even as a great master, he could not resist, and his whole body flew backward involuntarily. In just this one move, Fu Cailin actually flew to the bottom of the city tower!

The Goguryeo side originally had high morale, but seeing the great master they relied on being knocked off the city tower by Gu Qing in one move, they were shocked and angry, wanting to leave first. Drawing swords and sabers, they surrounded Fu Cailin, not knowing whether to protect Fu Cailin or let Fu Cailin protect them.

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh..."

Long arrows were like a swarm of locusts, covering the sky and earth, flying toward Gu Qing.

This time responding to Yang Guang's personal expedition, the Goguryeo side also responded with all their strength, but these heavy arrows flew to Gu Qing's front and fell one by one. In front of Gu Qing's body, it was as if there was a protective shield, completely wrapping his whole body.

"Dragon-Subduing Eighteen Palms!"

Gu Qing supported the sky with both hands, pressed his Qi to his dantian, rubbed east and west, a group of true Qi was like shaping, raised his hands and flew, instantly turning into more than thirty paths of true Qi, moving everywhere east, west, south, and north.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!"

After the palm force, everything exploded, Goguryeo's side, whether it was the bow and arrow formation or the guards, were turned upside down at this moment, falling into chaos.

Fu Cailin was sweating profusely. He had lived for so many years and had never seen such a fight!
