Chapter 13

Southern Song Imperial Palace.

Seeing Guo Jing ascend the list, Zhao Gou laughed excitedly.

"Good, this is truly great!"

"My Great Song really does have someone capable of ascending the list."

"Prime Minister, send someone to pass an imperial decree for Guo Jing to enter the palace."

"I want to reward him!"

Zhao Gou said impatiently.

Not long ago, he had said that he wanted a martial artist from the Great Song who could ascend the Heaven’s Pride List.

Now it had immediately come true; at this moment, Zhao Gou was even more certain that he was the True Dragon Son of Heaven, the child most loved by Heaven, his father.

"Your Majesty, Guo Jing is just a martial man; if he were to enter the imperial court rashly, I fear it would cause dissatisfaction among the court officials."

Qin Gui thought for a moment and said.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Gou immediately calmed down.

He also realized that he had indeed been a bit impulsive just now.

The principle of the Great Song had always been to value the literary and slight the martial.

Even if there was a need for a martial artist from the pugilistic world to unite the people of the pugilistic world, there was no need for the imperial court to reward him directly.

"The Prime Minister’s words are reasonable!"

"Prime Minister, send someone to make contact with Guo Jing."

"See if he is willing to serve the imperial court."

"If he is willing, you can secretly give him some promises!"

Zhao Gou said after pondering for a moment.

"As you command!"

Qin Gui said with his head bowed.

Although he said so on the surface, he would absolutely not go to contact Guo Jing.

In Qin Gui’s view, these martial artists from the pugilistic world would only hinder his plans.

He was the deepest pawn planted by the Jin Dynasty in the Southern Song.

If Zhao Gou asked about it afterward, he would just need to find some random excuse to muddle through.

Southern Song Imperial Palace.

Hong Hong Qigong, who was stealing food in the Imperial Kitchen, saw Guo Jing ascend the list and laughed as he took a huge bite of roasted chicken.

"Jing'er has actually ascended the list too."

"I, the old beggar, really didn't misjudge the person."

Hong Hong Qigong laughed loudly.

Subsequently, he took a few more delicious items and left the Southern Song Imperial Palace.

After he left, an old eunuch appeared in the Imperial Kitchen.

"This Hong Hong Qigong still can't change his gluttonous habit."

"Coming to the palace to eat things time and time again."

"Fortunately, he hasn't done anything bad, otherwise I wouldn't let him off!"

The old eunuch in red spoke in a voice like a duck’s quack.

Immediately after, he waved his hand casually, and the Imperial Kitchen returned to its original state.

If Hong Hong Qigong were still here, he would be able to tell at a glance that this red-clad eunuch was a martial artist at the Land Immortal realm.

If Dongfang Bubai of Black Wood Cliff were here, he would be able to recognize that the technique the red-clad eunuch used was the Sunflower Manual!

"Those people in the imperial court are really becoming more and more restless!"

The red-clad eunuch sighed deeply and left the Imperial Kitchen.

His mission was to protect the Emperor from being assassinated; as for matters in the imperial court, even if he couldn't stand them, he could not intervene at will.

Seeing Guo Jing ascend the list, Ying Ying Ziyu’s mind conjured up the eccentric Huang Rong.

"This girl really isn't giving up, she’s been looking for me all this time."

"I wonder what her reaction will be when she finds out my true identity."

Ying Ying Ziyu smiled and shook his head.

He was very clear about the fact that those confidantes he had encountered were always looking for him.

The reason he had not shown himself was because he had his own plans.

It was not because he was afraid, but because the timing was not yet right.

After finishing the internal affairs of Great Qin, he could bring all these confidantes to his side.

While fulfilling greater ambitions, he could also live a happy and joyful life.

Living a life of waking up to hold the power of the world and falling asleep on the knees of beauties.

"Master, the servant has heard of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Nine Yin Manual; these two types of techniques are both top-tier techniques in the Nine Provinces."

"This person named Guo Jing is quite lucky to be able to learn both at the same time."

"In the future, a Grandmaster will inevitably be born in the Southern Song pugilistic world."

Jiang Jiang Yuyan said with a smile.

She didn't care about Guo Jing at all.

She just wanted to talk more with Ying Ying Ziyu.

In this way, she felt that she, as a maid, could have a sense of presence in front of Ying Ying Ziyu.

"Cultivating to Grandmaster with the Nine Yin Manual is absolutely no problem."

"Guo Jing, this person, looks silly and dull, and his own talent is not very good."

"However, his character is very tenacious, belonging to the kind of person who is indomitable."

"Another thing is that he has a sense of patriotism and the world in his heart; 'the great hero, for the country and the people' is exactly what describes a person like Guo Jing."

Ying Ying Ziyu gave an evaluation of Guo Jing.

Back when he watched The Legend of the Condor Heroes and The Return of the Condor Heroes, Ying Ying Ziyu admired Guo Jing very much.

This person was a great hero in the true sense!

Even knowing that the power of the Great Song could not withstand the Master Yuan Dynasty.

Yet, he still stood guard over Xiangyang, resisting the Master Yuan soldiers.

"To be able to receive such a high evaluation from Master, it seems this Guo Jing is indeed a character!"

Jiang Jiang Yuyan secretly noted down this person, Guo Jing, in her heart.

Ever since the Heaven’s Pride List came out, she had also learned a lot of news about geniuses from all over the Nine Provinces from the Master.

Knowing the affairs of the world without leaving the house; this ability of the Master is truly amazing.

Great Master Yuan!

Seeing Guo Jing ascend the list, Temujin was so angry that he threw the knife he was using to cut mutton directly onto the ground.

"Damn Guo Jing!"

"I married my most precious daughter to him."

"He actually refused!"

"Now he has even thrown himself into the Southern Song and become an enemy of my Great Master Yuan."

"One day, I will kill him with my own hands!"

Temujin said angrily.

He had originally sincerely wanted to marry his daughter Hua Zheng to Guo Jing, letting Guo Jing become the Golden Blade Prince Consort of Great Master Yuan.

As a result, it had turned into an enmity.

Temujin had to sigh and say that fortune plays tricks on people.

"A dignified Golden Blade Prince Consort has now actually become a person of the Southern Song."

"Guo Jing has made my Great Master Yuan a laughingstock of the Nine Provinces."

"He must be killed with my own hands!"

Phagpa said.
