Chapter 10

Even hearing about it, it seemed no one had ever heard of it.

Even Ao Bai, called the greatest martial artist of the Great Qing, was merely at the Great Grandmaster Realm.

At this thought.

Recalling the expression on the Emperor's face not long ago when he seemed to have some interest in the Sunflower Manual.

Instantly, he couldn't help but shiver.

He made up his mind.

No matter what, he would not accept this mission!

He was deep in thought.

Suddenly, a fawning voice sounded from behind.

"Lord Wei, what are you thinking about so intently?"

Wei Xiaobao trembled slightly and snapped back to awareness.

Even without turning around, just from the voice, he knew who it was.

The arrival was no one else.

It was Du Long, his partner in corruption and bribery!

Suddenly!

A flash of insight struck Wei Xiaobao's mind.

As if he had just thought of something.

A sly, malicious smile spread across his face as he slowly turned around.

"Ah, it's my lord Du Long. It's been two days—how have you been?"

Du Long smiled slightly.

Just as he was about to exchange some hollow flattery, he was startled by Wei Xiaobao's smile.

He instinctively stepped back two paces.

For no reason at all, Du Long felt a creeping chill in his heart.

Even his arms broke out in goosebumps.

He hastily made an excuse and fled like a scared animal.

008-Bashiba terrified, Wei Jinzhang helpless! (Request flowers, request tips)

In the Yuan Empire's palace.

Slowly withdrawing his gaze from the void.

Tie Muzhen exclaimed, his tone filled with surprise.

"I never expected that the weak Song Dynasty already had two Earthly Immortal Realm experts."

"Then how many does the strongest Qin Kingdom have?"

Silence filled the surroundings.

Clearly.

None of those present could answer this question.

Tie Muzhen was not surprised by this.

He turned and gave an order to one side.

"Go and fetch the State Preceptor."

"Yes!"

The man bowed and hurried away.

Not long after.

A figure slowly walked in.

The arrival was no one else.

It was the Yuan Empire's State Preceptor, Bashiba!

"State Preceptor, how many top-tier experts are there among the Central Plains states?"

Seeing Bashiba,

Tie Muzhen did not beat around the bush.

He asked directly what was on his mind.

As an emperor of immense ambition,

he constantly dreamed of unifying all under heaven and claiming the Nine Provinces.

Yet,

the appearance of the Heavenly Dao Golden List had sent a cold sweat down his spine!

He had not expected,

that the Central Plains states possessed such hidden depths!

It was utterly terrifying!!

"I do not know."

"But one thing is certain: the Central Plains harbor many who are not weaker than I am!"

Bashiba shook his head and replied succinctly.

As he spoke, he seemed to recall something and quickly added a warning.

"By the way, if Your Majesty intends to take control of the Central Plains, remember: there is a forbidden entity clad in black robes!"

"If you encounter him, absolutely, absolutely do not provoke conflict!!"

By the time he finished speaking.

Ba Shiba's eyes filled with fear.

Even his voice trembled slightly.

Tie Muzhen, who caught this scene, couldn't help but feel curious.

He knew Ba Shiba's strength all too well.

Not just in the Great Yuan, but across the Nine Continents, he was among the very top.

Yet such a being showed fear when mentioning the Black Robe Man.

Just this one point made it impossible for him not to be curious!

Unfortunately,

When Tie Muzhen pressed further,

Ba Shiba refused to speak, remaining silent.

As if he did not wish to mention anything more about this person.

Tie Muzhen, helpless, gave up pressing further.

…………

Great Ming, Forbidden City.

"This Song Huang has such good fortune."

"If only I could have a Land Immortal Realm expert willingly pledge loyalty to me."

He glanced toward Mount Wudang from afar.

Zhu Houzhao spoke with a tinge of envy.

His eyes were filled with longing.

Even,

Had conditions permitted,

He would have stormed into Mount Wudang.

Grabbed Zhang Sanfeng, pointed at the Heaven's Golden List's entry on Huang Shang, and scolded him soundly.

Look how self-motivated he is!!

Unfortunately,

Such a scene could only be fantasized about in dreams.

Even a Peerless Realm expert, below Land Immortal Realm but above Grand Master,

Held a certain status before imperial power!
