Chapter 405

By then, after he became Emperor, the entire Great Ming would be completely under his control.

After Zhu Wushi thought about it, he did not answer Tian Quan's question but said directly:

"Does your organization have Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom?"

Seeing Zhu Wushi's inquiry, Tian Quan nodded gently, as if he had been prepared for it.

Zhu Wushi saw that the Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom he had been searching for in vain was actually possessed by this person before him who called himself Tian Quan of the Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sect.

His eyes were filled with burning heat.

In Zhu Wushi's heart, Suxin had always been ranked first, and second was strength and power.

Now seeing that Tian Quan actually had Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom, a trace of ruthlessness flashed in Zhu Wushi's eyes, and he then spoke:

"I choose the second option! I want a Great Ming that is in chaos!"

Hearing Zhu Wushi's words, Tian Quan nodded, and a smile like that of a scheme succeeding appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Then how do you intend to deal with the Great Ming protector, the Eunuch Zheng He?"

Zhu Wushi continued to ask.

In Zhu Wushi's heart, the Eunuch Zheng He was the most difficult part of his plan to seize power in the Great Ming.

Because Zheng He was one of the strongest cultivators on the surface of the entire Nine Provinces, possessing the strength of a Peak Perfected Earth Immortal*Heavenly Man Realm.

If it weren't for the existence of Zheng He, he, Zhu Wushi, would have already successfully sent people to assassinate Zhu Houzhao in secret.

He would have already ascended the throne.

Hearing Zhu Wushi's inquiry, Tian Quan still maintained an indifferent appearance and said gently:

"Rest assured, since we are cooperating, we will help you deal with Zheng He."

"Seven days from now, I will come here again to give you a concrete answer."

After speaking, Tian Quan was about to leave. Seeing this, Zhu Wushi stopped Tian Quan and continued:

"One last condition: I want Zheng He's entire internal energy."

"When the time comes, after Zheng He is severely injured, I will deal with him personally."

Zhu Wushi's eyes radiated infinite desire and cold light.

Seeing this, Tian Quan nodded casually and then vanished from before Zhu Wushi.

Zhu Wushi looked at the empty hall, the desire and sinister intent in his heart no longer suppressed.

"Eunuch Zheng He, don't blame me!"

"Only by sacrificing you can I realize my ambition!"

"In this way, you can also be considered to have sacrificed for the Great Ming!"

Zhu Wushi said sinisterly.

He wanted to become a peerless expert; he wanted to become the actual controller of the Great Ming!

He, Zhu Wushi, wanted to become the most shining person of this era!

……

On the other side.

Hua Manlou, Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, and Bai Zhantang, who had been searching everywhere for Ximen Chuixue, finally found Ximen Chuixue in a dense forest.

When Hua Manlou, Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, and Bai Zhantang first saw Ximen Chuixue in the dense forest, they did not immediately recognize that this person who looked so down-and-out was actually Ximen Chuixue, who had been like a noble young master in the Jianghu before!

After all, before the decisive battle at the Peak of the Forbidden City, Ximen Chuixue had the reputation of "White clothes better than snow, sword not stained with blood" in the Jianghu.

But now, Ximen Chuixue, who appeared before everyone, no longer had that noble young master appearance. He was dressed like a beggar; his once snow-white long robe was already worn and tattered, with holes, bloodstains, and dirt left from battles.

Hua Manlou, Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, and Bai Zhantang felt a complex mix of emotions upon seeing Ximen Chuixue's current state.

"Brother Ximen, how did you become like this??"

"Why are you putting yourself through this?!"

Lu Xiaofeng said, unable to restrain himself, grabbing Ximen Chuixue's hand with tears in his eyes.

"When we were all together before, we were so carefree."

"What on earth are you doing this for now?"

"If you have any difficulties, just tell us. With our friendship of life and death, we will definitely help you solve any problems!"

Chu Liuxiang looked at Ximen Chuixue, who was sitting cross-legged in front, with a complex expression and said.

Looking at Ximen Chuixue before them, before Chu Liuxiang could step forward to reminisce, Bai Zhantang, who was to the side, pulled him back and said cheekily:

"Fragrant Master, is this man who looks like a beggar really the famous Ximen Chuixue of the Jianghu?"

"Isn't it said that once Ximen Chuixue appears, he will captivate thousands of young girls in the Jianghu? How come he doesn't look as handsome as me now?"

"Could it be that the rumors in the Jianghu are not as good as they seem?"

Hearing Bai Zhantang's words, Chu Liuxiang sighed gently, shook his head, and said very helplessly:

"When Brother Ximen was in the decisive battle with Dugu Cheng, it was indeed as the Jianghu rumors said... 0"

"White clothes like snow, like a banished immortal."

"But ever since the decisive battle at the Peak of the Forbidden City with Dugu Cheng, after being toyed with by Dugu Cheng, Brother Ximen's sword heart seems to have been wounded."

"Afterward, he secretly left us and became what he is now."

After hearing Chu Liuxiang's words, Bai Zhantang scratched his head. He was not a swordsman and did not understand the connection between a damaged sword heart and becoming like this.

Ximen Chuixue, who had been sitting cross-legged on the ground cultivating, felt a trace of gentleness and gratification in his eyes after hearing Lu Xiaofeng and Chu Liuxiang's words, but afterward, he stared fixedly at Bai Zhantang, who was standing with Chu Liuxiang.

Seeing this, Lu Xiaofeng quickly said to Ximen Chuixue:

"Brother Ximen, Brother Ximen, the one standing with Fragrant Master is the famous Thief Saint, Bai Zhantang, of the Jianghu."

"He is one of our own. After you disappeared, Brother Bai also went to great lengths to find you."

"It can be said that if it weren't for Brother Bai being here, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to find you until now."

Hearing Lu Xiaofeng's words, the wariness in Ximen Chuixue's eyes toward Bai Zhantang gradually faded.

Afterward, Ximen Chuixue looked at Chu Liuxiang, Hua Manlou, and Lu Xiaofeng, sighed gently, and said:

"I've made you all worry during this time."

"I came out this time, in fact, just to become stronger."

"Sooner or later, I will make Dugu Cheng pay the price for his contempt for me!"

Speaking of this, an incomparable sword intent erupted from Ximen Chuixue's body.

Hua Manlou, Lu Xiaofeng, Chu Liuxiang, and Bai Zhantang were all extremely surprised to see the sword intent erupted by Ximen Chuixue.

Especially Hua Manlou, Lu Xiaofeng, and Chu Liuxiang, their surprise at Ximen Chuixue at this moment could not be added to, because Ximen Chuixue now was actually at least three times stronger than when he left them!

……

Great Sui.

Yuwen Tuo stared at the Famous Sword List in the sky.

Looking at the introduction of the Yuanhong Sword and the Peerless Good Sword on the Famous Sword List, a trace of disdain appeared on Yuwen Tuo's face.

Because he possessed a divine weapon—the Xuanyuan Sword.

Yuwen Tuo believed that the current Famous Sword List was a joke; if his Xuanyuan Sword could make the Famous Sword List, it would certainly be able to rank at the forefront.

Moreover, his Xuanyuan Sword already belonged to the Divine Weapon List, and the Famous Sword List, just by looking at the name, was not in the same grade as his Divine Weapon List.

"Peerless Good Sword??? Heh."

"Even if the materials were transformed into extraterrestrial meteorite iron, what use is it? It is still not as good as my Xuanyuan Sword."

"No matter how swords forged by humans in later periods change, they will not be as powerful as the divine weapons left over from ancient times, nor will they be as miraculous as the Xuanyuan Sword!"

Yuwen Tuo said with a hint of mockery, and afterward, he stopped paying attention to the movements on the Famous Sword List and focused wholeheartedly on recovering from the injuries he had sustained outside Xianyang City. ===== CHAPTER 406 =====
