Chapter 146

"Bring in the rewards!"

Hearing Ying Zheng laughed loudly, tilting his head back.

For the first time.

He had not been angered by his flattery.

His entire mood was utterly splendid.

Even the color of his face had visibly grown ruddier.

"Thank Your Majesty!"

Zhao Gao hurriedly knelt to thank him.

The joy on his face was no less than his.

Because he understood.

Everything he had came from Your Majesty.

Only if the other lived long, lived long enough.

Could he himself live better!

After laughing for a while, Hearing Ying Zheng calmed his emotions.

His tiger-like eyes glowed with sharp brilliance as he spoke deeply.

"Zhao Gao, attend!"

"Your servant is here!" Zhao Gao promptly replied.

"I don't care what methods you use—find the Qinglong Society at all costs!"

"If all else fails, you are permitted to go to Lishan!"

"The method of immortality—I will obtain it at all costs!!"

Hearing Ying Zheng gave his order with a face utterly serious and solemn.

His tone was filled with absolute authority.

Even.

Willing to mobilize the imperial dynasty's deepest reserves!

Thus it is clear.

How highly he values the method of immortality!

"Your servant will spill his brains and blood, and face ten thousand deaths without hesitation!!"

Zhao Gao declared loudly with an utterly serious expression.

Seeing this, Hearing Ying Zheng nodded with considerable satisfaction.

Then he changed the subject and added.

"Also, send someone to Dali's Changchun Bulao Valley to retrieve the Immortal Spring and the scriptures!"

"If you encounter anyone who has reversed aging, capture them for me as well!"

"Yes!"

…………

Great Yuan, Imperial Capital.

"Sss!! Is this truly the method of immortality?!"

"Hahaha, this Khan is truly destined by Heaven!!"

He read the contents of the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

Tie Muzhen drew in a sharp breath.

Then he burst into loud laughter.

His laughter brimmed with excitement and joy.

But only for an instant.

His brows involuntarily knitted tightly.

For he suddenly remembered Hearing Ying Zheng and Wu Zetian.

Though he had always looked down on the latter.

Yet he could not deny.

The strength of the Tang Dynasty was far from as frail as the other great imperial dynasties!

Most importantly.

Hearing Ying Zheng, whom he had always regarded as his strongest rival.

Would never stand idly by as immortality slipped before his eyes!

Moreover.

This doesn't even count the Qinglong Society!

Given Ximen Wudi's vengeful nature and his utter lack of restraint.

Who dares to lay hands on Senior Xiaoyaozi—how could the Qinglong Society possibly stand by and do nothing?

Therefore.

It is easy to imagine.

This struggle will be far more complex than it appears on the surface!

Of course.

Even if it is harder!

Even if he fears Jidanxi Sect more!

Facing Master Changsheng.

Even Tie Muzhen was gradually losing his sanity!

Or rather.

Before a cultivation art that embodies the very essence of heaven and earth.

Among the people of the Nine Provinces, who among them would not desire it?!

Yet, the vast majority simply lack the strength to obtain it!

Even so, he believed countless warriors would still rush forward without regard for their lives.

If that is the case, how much more so for the ruler of the Great Yuan Empire?!

At this thought.

Tie Muzhen straightened his expression and gave a calm order.

"Send someone to Dali's Everlasting Spring Valley and bring back the Everlasting Spring and the scriptures!"

"Also, dig out the Qinglong Society at all costs!"

"Even if it means deploying the 'Living… them'—it is worth it!!"

"By the way, if you encounter anyone from other imperial dynasties or factions, one word: kill!!"

The voice was not loud.

But the chilling dread and murderous intent within it.

Instantly plunged the grand hall into a heavy silence.

Even the temperature dropped sharply!!

"We humbly obey the Khan's command!"

…………

Tang Dynasty, Fengxuan Pavilion.

"Master Changsheng? This man possesses such earth-shaking, ghost-weeping power?!!"

A flash of sharp light passed through her phoenix eyes.

Wu Zetian's expression was one of utter shock.

She had never imagined.

That such a being—almost divine—existed in this world!

No! Not almost divine—truly divine!!

Even if the Heavenly Dao Golden List were to reveal itself now.

She still felt a sense of unreality!

It was simply too outrageous! Too unbelievable!!
