Chapter 94

He knew Zhuge Divine Marquis.

He was the master of the Four Great Constables.

The Chief Instructor of the Great Ming's 180,000 Imperial Guards.

Once awarded the title of Six-Five Divine Marquis due to outstanding achievements!

He was known as the Great Ming's Dual Marquises together with Iron-Gall Divine Marquis Zhu Wushi.

His cultivation was not in the slightest weaker than Zhu Wushi's!

Only, for some reason, he had disappeared for more than ten years.

Otherwise.

When Zhu Wushi rebelled back then, relying on him alone would have been enough to resist head-on!

From this, one can imagine.

To be able to teach such a disciple.

As his master, his cultivation must certainly not be weak!!

"The specific details, this minister is not too clear."

"Because that person seems to have been in self-imposed seclusion for many years."

"However, it is certain that."

"His cultivation is at least at the late or peak stage of the Land Immortal realm!"

Wei Jinzhong was stunned for a moment.

And answered truthfully.

Although this cultivation could only be considered the bottom of the barrel among the foundations of the major dynasties.

But to deal with this matter.

It was absolutely more than enough!

"Hmm...."

"I understand."

"Everything, just wait for tomorrow night!"

A flash of contemplation flickered in his eyes.

Zhu Houzhao nodded and didn't ask any more.

[PS: Chapter 103 has been unblocked, Yanzu who haven't read it can go and read it.]

The night passed without incident.

The next day.

The weather was clear and sunny.

Only, I don't know if it was because they were going to witness the duel between the Sword God and the Sword Saint in the evening.

The atmosphere in the entire Forbidden City had become somewhat murderous.

Let alone the martial artists of the martial world.

Even the ordinary commoners seemed to have smelled an atmosphere of a storm coming.

Making the capital, which was originally prosperous and noisy.

Become unusually deserted at this moment.

Except for some peddlers trying to make a living.

On the streets.

Those coming and going were all martial experts with weapons in hand and stern expressions.

Of course.

If one were to talk about lively places, it wasn't that there were none.

The entire Forbidden City.

Every inn, restaurant, teahouse, and pleasure house.

Was packed with people.

The scene was lively, forming a sharp contrast with the outside.

Eastern Depot.

Looking at the neatly arranged team in front of him.

Cao Zhengchun said coldly in an effeminate voice.

"I assume you all understand the mission, right?"

"This Governor hopes that there won't be any mistakes tonight!"

"Otherwise, don't blame this Governor for turning against you! And sending you to the Imperial Prison for a visit!"

Saying this.

A cold murderous intent instantly filled the field.

The terrifying aura made it difficult for people to even breathe.

"Subordinates obey the order!"

Shuddering subconsciously.

Everyone responded loudly in unison.

As agents of the Eastern Depot.

They naturally knew the tortures in the Imperial Prison well.

Therefore.

Upon hearing this.

Which one of them wasn't shivering with fear.

"That is very good."

Cao Zhengchun saw this.

And nodded with satisfaction.

A faint smile appeared on his face.

Then he waved his hand again.

"Alright, you may all disperse."

"Subordinates take their leave!"

Everyone said respectfully in a low voice.

Western Depot.

Compared to Cao Zhengchun's grand display.

Yu Huatian's side was simple.

He sat in the head seat, sipping tea with a calm expression.

In the room, more than a dozen people were gathered.

Each one was a high-level official of the Western Depot.

Only, at this moment, their faces were solemn.

Their gazes were fixed on Yu Huatian, waiting for instructions.

"This time, the Emperor has ordered our four major organizations to move together, so I assume the importance needs no further explanation, right?"

"This Governor has only one requirement for you!"

"That is, while completing the mission, you must suppress the other three parties!"

"So that our Western Depot can gain the Emperor's appreciation and ascend to the head of the four major organizations!!"

"If any accidents or oversights occur during this period."

"This Governor will definitely have you skinned and stuffed with straw, and torn to pieces!!"

Taking a sip of tea.

Yu Huatian's evil and charming face was filled with coldness.

A flicker of indifference shone in his eyes.

His voice sounded very light.

But everyone present trembled all over.

Cold sweat instantly seeped from their foreheads.

They looked at each other.

And bent down one after another, responding in a low voice.

"Subordinates will definitely not fail the Governor's high expectations!"

The same scene was also happening in the Six Doors and the Embroidered Uniform Guard Command Mansion.

Only, compared to Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian.

Both sides didn't have any other thoughts.

They were only thinking about how to solve the Emperor's worries.

To prevent any unexpected accidents.

Zuihua Tower.

As one of the Hua family's properties in the capital.

At this moment, Zuihua Tower was already packed.

In a private room by the window on the second floor.

Listening to the sound of wine being poured one after another in his ears.

Hua Manlou smiled slightly and said.

"Why? Are you not worried about them?"

"You actually still have the heart to drink here?"

While speaking.

His tone couldn't help but be filled with a hint of curiosity.

He was extremely familiar with Lu Xiaofeng's nature.

If it were under normal circumstances, let alone drinking.

He probably wouldn't even be able to sit still!

Yet now he was drinking leisurely here.

How could this not make him curious?

"What's wrong with that."

"I already went to see them last night."

"Otherwise, do you think I could still be here drinking with you?"

Lu Xiaofeng explained while not forgetting to take another gulp of wine.

"You went last night? No wonder."

Hua Manlou heard this.

And was slightly stunned.

Thinking of his usual fiery style of doing things.

He was suddenly enlightened.

Then he didn't say anything more.

He sat opposite him and raised his wine glass with grace and ease.

Time flew by.

In the expectant mood of countless martial artists.

Night slowly descended.

A bright moon was blooming with clear light in the void.

Only, I don't know why.

It seemed that even the bright moon felt the unusualness of tonight.

That radiance looked somewhat cold and murderous.

And at both ends of the Forbidden City wall.

With the rising of the bright moon.

Countless experts gathered one after another.

They gathered in groups of three or five.

Their faces were filled with excitement, enthusiasm, and anticipation.

While paying attention to the city wall.

They didn't forget to discuss in low voices with their friends beside them.

"Tell me, is the Flying Immortal of the White Cloud City Lord better? Or is the Chuixue Sword Technique of the Wanmei Manor Master three points faster?"

"One Sword Saint, one Sword God, no matter who wins, in short, this is a feast! We are in for a treat!"

"That's right, that's right, in terms of talent and intelligence, the two are evenly matched; in terms of sword cultivation, they are both the best among them, each with their own merits. In short, whoever wins, it is reasonable."

"Only, I don't know which of the five sword realms they have reached?"

"If only Senior Dugu Qiubai could appear, but unfortunately, what kind of existence is he, how would he condescend to come here to observe."

"Actually, I am more curious about who the Second Dragon Head of the Green Dragon Society is, to be ranked even ahead of Senior Dugu, it is truly unimaginable!!"

"...."

Besides the discussions of the martial artists gathering more and more.

Even many experts observing from inns and restaurants were equally curious in their hearts.

However.

Just in this situation where all eyes were on them and the atmosphere was gradually becoming solemn.

Time passed minute by minute.

But everyone still didn't see the figures of Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue.

For a time.

Their faces couldn't help but become somewhat anxious.

Among them.

Most were worried that this duel would not proceed as scheduled.

Resulting in a wasted trip.

Very soon.

Another hour passed.

Seeing that everyone was gradually losing hope.

Two figures suddenly landed on the city wall.

They were none other than.

The protagonists of tonight.

Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuixue!!

Seeing this scene.

Everyone was shocked and regained their spirits.

At the same time.

The field was silent for a moment.

Then it became boisterously noisy.

Everyone's gaze was focused on the two people.

Because of excitement, their old faces trembled.

Ye Gucheng: "You have come."
