Chapter 3

Ying Zheng, having lost interest, could not help but turn his attention to the Green Dragon Society.

Although the Green Dragon Society was only mentioned in passing on the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

Ying Zheng still developed considerable interest.

For no other reason.

It was mainly because Hua Xi, an existence at the Earth Immortal realm, was only a Hall Master of the 11th Hall of the Green Dragon Society.

Then, looking at it this way.

Doesn't it mean that the Green Dragon Society has at least ten Hall Masters at the Earth Immortal realm?

If this is really the case, then what kind of existence must the head of this Green Dragon Society be?

He could ignore one Earth Immortal.

But if there were twelve or even more, then he could not help but take it seriously!

Zhao Gao's body stiffened upon hearing this.

A pair of feet seemed to be firmly glued to the ground, unable to take a step.

As a favorite minister of the Qin Emperor Ying Zheng.

Although his martial cultivation was not high.

But memory was his strong suit!

As early as the moment he saw the Green Dragon Society, he reviewed the memories in his mind.

But the result was a blank.

Therefore.

After hearing Ying Zheng's order, he was stunned.

"Why haven't you acted yet?"

Glancing at Zhao Gao standing in place.

Ying Zheng frowned subconsciously, and his tone became somewhat displeased.

"Re... Report to Your Majesty, I... I have not recorded any information about the Green Dragon Society here, please punish me, Your Majesty."

Sensing the displeasure in the other's tone.

Zhao Gao complained secretly in his heart and pleaded guilty in a low voice.

"I will give you three days. After three days, if there is no information about the Green Dragon Society on my desk, you can go down and plead guilty yourself!"

Ying Zheng snorted lightly and said indifferently.

"Yes, I will go do it now!"

Zhao Gao felt a temporary relief in his heart.

He bowed respectfully and left in a hurry.

When he reached outside the hall, he raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

And on his back, his clothes had already been soaked with cold sweat.

"Hahaha, I didn't expect the first person on the list to be from my Great Ming!"

Great Ming Imperial Palace, Zhu Houzhao laughed heartily twice.

Following that, his expression returned to normal.

He sighed with some regret.

"It's a pity that the Moving Flower Palace cannot be used by me."

Thinking of this, Zhu Houzhao felt a headache.

Compared to other dynasties.

He, the Great Ming Emperor, was truly living a somewhat pathetic life.

Internal troubles and external threats.

Power was not fully grasped.

Although he was not a puppet like Emperor Xian of Han, Liu Xie.

But to say that political orders were smooth and strictly enforced was also full of considerable difficulties.

"Your Majesty need not worry, at least there has been a slight loosening on Wudang's side."

"If we can win over Zhang Zhenren, I assume certain people won't be able to stir up any big waves."

At this time.

A feminine voice sounded from the corner.

"I heard that Zhang Zhenren's hundredth birthday is in a month."

"Tell me, should I go visit in person?"

Hearing the comfort.

Zhu Houzhao's complexion looked a little better.

"This plan is feasible, but you are a body of ten thousand gold, I am worried..."

"No matter, you can accompany me on the trip then, the matter of Zhang Zhenren cannot be sloppy!"

Zhu Houzhao raised his hand to interrupt.

Great Tang, Sound Illusion Workshop.

"I didn't expect that there would be such a strange woman in this world. It seems I still underestimated the people of the world."

The Empress yawned lazily.

A trace of competitiveness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

In terms of talent, she considered herself no weaker than Hua Xi.

It was just because a lot of time was spent managing the Qi land.

That her cultivation was a step weaker than the other.

Thinking of this.

The Empress suddenly remembered the introduction on the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

After pondering for a moment, she ordered outside the curtain.

"Ruxue, notify the Nine Heavens Holy Maidens to investigate the Green Dragon Society."

"I want to see just how amazing this Green Dragon Society is!"

Having an Earth Immortal as a Hall Master.

I have to say, this is indeed a big move.

The entire Sound Illusion Workshop, no, it should be said the entire Great Tang.

There are very few existences who can reach the Earth Immortal realm.

This could not help but make the Empress curious.

Of course.

More than that, she wanted to see Hua Xi with her own eyes!

"Actually at the bottom, it seems the Nine Provinces Continent is indeed full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers! The water is deeper than I imagined!"

"I just don't know, what rank will the Great Dragon Head be?"

On an unnamed mountain peak.

A slender figure with a veiled face whispered to herself.

If Yao Yue and Lian Xing were here, they would definitely recognize her at a glance.

This is their long-lost master, Hua Xi!

Just as she finished speaking.

The Heavenly Dao Golden List, which had been standing still, changed again.

Almost instantly.

It attracted the eyes of the people of the Nine Provinces.

【Nine Provinces Combat Power Ceiling List - 19th Place, Sunflower Ancestor, Cultivation: Early-stage Earth Immortal.】

【Identity: Eunuch of the Great Song Imperial Palace.】

【He was born a natural eunuch and was sent into the palace by his parents before his childhood. During this period, he experienced countless hardships, and was later taken in by an unnamed old eunuch who taught him martial arts.】

【Because he was limited by being a natural eunuch, he reached the peak of the Innate realm and could not break through the shackles no matter what, which made him distressed and decadent for a while.】

【But the strong always have an unyielding heart. After being decadent for half a year, he suddenly realized: since martial arts can be created by predecessors, why can't I create them myself?】

【What's more, the martial arts manuals of predecessors are always most suitable for the one who created them!】

【Having figured this out, with a clear mind, he embarked on the path of creating his own martial arts. Heaven does not disappoint those who have a heart; after a full twenty years, he finally created his own technique, the "Sunflower Manual".】

【Because of this, his cultivation, which had not progressed for twenty years, broke through the Grandmaster realm in just half a year, reaching the peak of the Great Grandmaster realm. Considering the breakthrough was too fast, he began to polish himself until everything fell into place, and finally broke through to the Earth Immortal realm!】

【Heavenly Dao Evaluation: Born like an ant, one should have the ambition of a swan; life is thinner than paper, one should have an unyielding heart!】

【Heavenly Dao Reward: Heaven-grade weapon: Speed-Returning Needle, which can be retrieved by thought.】

Quiet!

Quiet!

Extremely quiet!

Even though the Golden List phenomenon had ended.

Everyone still hadn't recovered from their stupor.

On their faces, besides astonishment, there was only astonishment!

I don't know how long it took.

The world finally recovered from the shock.

If Hua Xi only created her own martial arts because of her fear of birth, aging, sickness, and death.

Then the encounters and experiences of the Sunflower Ancestor were relatively more inspiring!

Especially the sentence, "The martial arts manuals of predecessors are always most suitable for the one who created them."

It was like a head-on blow, making countless experts suddenly enlightened.

Yes, why can't I do what my predecessors could do? Am I not as good as them?

For a time.

Countless experts were inspired, and the idea of creating their own martial arts rose in their hearts.

Great Song, inside the Imperial Palace.

Zhao Ji smashed the porcelain in front of him with an ugly face.

His eyes were full of displeasure.

His tone was even more incredulous.

"This Heavenly Dao Golden List must have a problem! How could the Ancestor's cultivation only be ranked 19th!!"

In the darkness, a figure slowly walked out.

He bowed to Zhao Ji and comforted him.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. We know our own affairs; 19th place is not bad!"

"The most important thing is that the National Teacher's strength is more than a star and a half stronger than mine."

"Even I can be ranked 19th, then the National Teacher's top ten ranking should be stable."

Hearing this.

Zhao Ji's expression softened slightly.

However, he still snorted indignantly.

"Although the National Teacher's strength is indeed strong, in my opinion, Ancestor, your strength is not weak either."

"The Golden List must have made a mistake. When the ranking is updated next time, Ancestor, you will definitely be in the top ten!"

The Sunflower Ancestor smiled and didn't pick up the conversation.

Great Ming, Black Wood Cliff.

"So the Sunflower Manual I practice actually came from this person's hand."

"It seems that when necessary, I still have to go to the Great Song."

Withdrawing his gaze from the void.

Dongfang Bubai, dressed in red, sat on the leader's throne and pondered secretly.

It was also at this time.

She understood.

Why her practice of the Sunflower Manual, although advancing rapidly, always felt like something was missing.

It turned out the root cause was being a natural eunuch!

Even though she was a woman, although not a natural eunuch, it could be considered fitting for the opening of self-castration.

But as the Golden List said.

Every technique is most suitable for the creator themselves.

Even if later people can practice it, there will always be an invisible and untouchable shackle.

Having figured this out, Dongfang Bubai waved her hand and made a decision.

She looked up and ordered Tong Baixiong.

"I have had some insights and am about to go into seclusion. You can handle all affairs in the sect yourselves."

After speaking.

She didn't wait for Tong Baixiong's reply.

She disappeared directly from the leader's throne.

"There is actually such a technique, sure enough, Heaven does not abandon me!"

Seeing the content of the Heavenly Dao Golden List.

A flash of light passed through Zhao Gao's eyes, and he couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

He immediately returned to the mansion in a hurry.

Dismissing the servants, he ordered coldly.

"Six Sword Slaves, take the order, quickly send people to the Great Song, and you must bring back the Sunflower Manual for me!!"

"If necessary, you can use the secret agents of the Net!"

"If there is any mistake, then bring your heads to see me!!"

As soon as the voice fell.

Several voices suddenly sounded in the empty room.

"Obey the Lord's order!"

With several slight sounds of breaking through the air.

The room fell into silence again.

As if everything that had just happened had never happened.

However.

What Zhao Gao didn't know was.

As soon as the Six Sword Slaves left.

The news here had already been delivered to Ying Zheng's desk.

Glancing at the information above with interest.

Ying Zheng chuckled and said lightly.

"It's just a Sunflower Manual, let him go."

"Has the Black Ice Terrace found information about the Green Dragon Society?"

Compared to Zhao Gao, he cared more about the Green Dragon Society.

After all.

If it was really as he thought.

Then this Green Dragon Society was definitely a behemoth.

It would be best if it could be used for his own purposes.

If not, it would be better than being blind in the future.

"I am incompetent, please punish me, Your Majesty!"
