Chapter 653

Although as the head of the Shadow Secret Guard, he had never liked Luo Wang, he had to admit that Luo Wang was indeed three points stronger than the Shadow Secret Guard.

“Luo Wang is indeed brilliant, but this time Tian Yan’s identity is exposed, I’m afraid it’s not very good.”

Prince Fusu said with a frown.

Ying Zheng said calmly: “It doesn’t matter, it’s time to close the net anyway.”

His words were plain, but they made Gai Nie, who was behind him, feel a chill in his heart.

Only then did he understand why Ying Zheng was not worried about Liu Bang and Chen Sheng at all.

Whether it was Liu Bang or that Chen Sheng, they essentially had to rely on the power of the Nongjia.

But the Nongjia is now a scattered sand, and in front of Luo Wang, there are no secrets at all; any action is under the supervision of the Great Qin.

This time, Ying Zheng sent Li Si and Zhao Gao south to completely resolve these two.

And besides removing Liu Bang and Chen Sheng, the only person who could truly pose a threat to the Great Qin was probably Xiang Yu.

Thinking this way, Gai Nie could not help but look toward the White Jade Platform.

A figure flashed in his mind; that was his brother, Jing Ke.

Counting the time, the child left behind by Jing Ke was about the same age as Xiang Yu; I wonder if he has the talent to make the Heaven-Gifted Ranking.

……

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen gently shook his folding fan and, without intentionally keeping them in suspense, said directly:

“¨ˇNext, let us comment on the next heaven-gifted person on the list.”

“Fifth place on the Heaven-Gifted Imperial Ranking, Brother Duan Yu / Xuzhu.”

“These two are both from the Great Song martial arts world; although their backgrounds are worlds apart, they have similarities.”

“Brother Duan Yu is the son of the Prince of Zhennan of the Dali Kingdom, but he is actually the illegitimate son of the Princess of Zhennan, Dao Dao Baifeng, and the leader of the Four Great Evils, Brother Duan Brother Duan Yanqing.”

“Xuzhu is an ordinary monk who grew up in the Shaolin Sect since childhood, but he is actually the illegitimate son of the former Shaolin Abbot Abbot Xuan Ci and Ye Ye Erniang of the Four Great Evils.”

“The biggest characteristic of these two is that they possess extremely astonishing martial arts destiny.”

“Other heaven-gifted individuals with destiny are at least inclined toward martial arts or possess astonishing martial arts talent.”

“But these two are not.”

“They neither have top-tier martial arts talent, nor do they like to learn martial arts, nor do they have the heart for hard practice.”

“However, they have destiny on them; even if they don’t want to learn martial arts, high-level experts will take the initiative to find them and teach them divine arts and secret manuals; they can’t refuse even if they want to.”

“Therefore, these two can be called the two great cheaters of the Great Song martial arts world.”

“Even if they are unwilling, they will surely become top-tier experts in the martial arts world in the future.”

“Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, the two are temporarily ranked together as fifth on the Heaven-Gifted Imperial Ranking.”

…….

The hall was silent.

Everyone was shocked by Su Chen’s commentary, never expecting that there would be such heaven-gifted individuals.

No martial arts talent, no heart for martial arts, no will for hard practice, yet divine arts and secret manuals would take the initiative to find them, and they would surely become top-tier experts in the martial arts world in the future.

Such heaven-gifted individuals can probably only be described as cheaters.

A group of martial arts heroes were so envious and jealous that they almost vomited blood.

They practiced until they were exhausted, but their cultivation remained stagnant, and they achieved nothing in their entire lives.

Yet these two could rise to the top and directly become top-tier experts in the martial arts world.

Where can they go to reason about this?

As for the backgrounds of these two, they were also talked about by everyone.

When Su Chen commented on Brother Duan Brother Duan Yanqing and Abbot Xuan Ci earlier, everyone was curious about the situation of these two illegitimate children.

Now the truth is finally revealed, making people sigh at the mystery of fortune.

More people looked toward the White Jade Platform with burning eyes.

The Heaven-Gifted Imperial Ranking has already been announced to the fifth place.

The heaven-gifted individuals after this are probably all potential candidates for practicing to the Quasi-Saint realm.

This is no ordinary matter.

No matter which martial arts world it is, even the Great Han martial arts world, Quasi-Saint experts are rare, and many are old monsters who have lived for three to five hundred years.

Heaven-gifted individuals who can practice to this realm are destined to be big shots who will carry the martial arts world in the future; everyone cannot help but take them seriously.

Not to mention, if these Imperial Ranking heaven-gifted individuals get heaven-defying opportunities, they still have a certain chance to break through to the Martial Saint realm.

Especially the sect leaders in the major private rooms on the third floor, their eyes 173 were all wide as copper bells.

The top four heaven-gifted individuals on the Imperial Ranking are absolutely the pride of heaven; if one could be recruited, the sect would be prosperous for the next hundred years.

……

On the White Jade Platform.

Su Chen sipped some clear tea, took in everyone’s gaze, and smiled slightly:

“Next, let us comment on the next heaven-gifted person on the list.”

“Fourth place on the Heaven-Gifted Imperial Ranking, Ye Kai / Fu Fu Hongxue.”

“These two are both from the Great Ming martial arts world, but they have not yet become famous, and fellow martial arts friends should have never heard of them.”

“Their backgrounds are also different from ordinary people, and there is a great connection between them in the dark.”

“If you want to sort out their backgrounds, you need to start from that righteous-demonic war back then.”

“Back then, the Western Regions Demon Sect leader Bai Bai Xiaolou achieved great success in demonic arts and led the Western Regions Demon Sect experts to dominate the Great Ming martial arts world, annexing countless sects.”

“The major sects of the Great Ming martial arts world worked together to resist the Demon Sect, and one of the leading experts was the Godly Blade Hall master, Bai Bai Tianyu.”

“At that time, Bai Bai Tianyu was known as the Great Ming’s number one Blade God, called Godly Blade Invincible, and fought a decisive battle with Bai Bai Xiaolou on the top of Tianshan, eventually winning by one move.”

“Afterward, Bai Bai Xiaolou kept his promise and led the Demon Sect people back to the Western Regions, but secretly sent his daughter, Hua Dao Baifeng, to approach Bai Bai Tianyu and wait for an opportunity to steal Bai Bai Tianyu’s blade technique manual.”

“At that time, Bai Bai Tianyu was already married, but he was still fascinated by Hua Dao Baifeng and had a child with her.”

“Bai Bai Tianyu’s wife knew about this, and naturally did not want this child to stay in the Bai family, so she used a strategy of replacing the civet cat for the crown prince.”

“This swapped baby was Fu Fu Hongxue.”

“He was originally the son of the Sword Master Hu Bugui.”

“Later, Hu Bugui was murdered, and on his deathbed, he sent the newborn Fu Fu Hongxue to the Godly Blade Hall, intending to entrust him to Bai Bai Tianyu for care.”

“But he did not expect to be intercepted halfway by Lady Bai, who used this baby to swap out the child born to Bai Bai Tianyu and Hua Dao Baifeng.”

“Bai Bai Tianyu and Hua Dao Baifeng knew nothing about this, only thinking that Fu Fu Hongxue was their biological son, and taught him carefully.”

“And that biological son of Bai Bai Tianyu was secretly sent away by Lady Bai and handed over to an ordinary Ye couple to raise, named Ye Kai.”

“The two babies thus formed a fateful connection.”

As Su Chen’s voice fell, a burst of exclamations came from the hall.

Almost no one in the hall knew about Fu Fu Hongxue and Ye Kai, who made the list this time.

But Bai Bai Tianyu’s name was like thunder to the ears; the Great Ming Blade God who was famous for a time was sought after by countless blade users.

No one expected that after that righteous-demonic war, such a follow-up would happen between the Western Regions Demon Sect and Bai Bai Tianyu.

Even less expected was that the two heaven-gifted individuals on the list this time were both closely related to Bai Bai Tianyu.

One was Fu Fu Hongxue, who had no blood relationship with Bai Bai Tianyu but was treated as his own son and raised by his side.

One was Ye Kai, the biological son who shared blood with Bai Bai Tianyu, but was swapped away by Lady Bai to another family.

Fu Fu Hongxue and Ye Kai, the two had no relationship, yet could be called brothers, and were both ranked fourth on the Heaven-Gifted Imperial Ranking.

Many martial arts heroes could not help but sigh that this was indeed a wonderful connection.

More people looked toward the White Jade Platform with burning eyes, looking forward to Su Chen’s next commentary.

Compared to Fu Fu Hongxue and Ye Kai themselves, they were more concerned about another matter, and that was the death of Bai Bai Tianyu!

That Bai Bai Tianyu, who drove away the Western Regions Demon Sect with his own power, once received god-like praise, but he suddenly died violently over a decade ago, dying in a snowy night.

This accident almost shocked the entire Great Ming martial arts world.

After all, that person was Bai Bai Tianyu, the existence of Godly Blade Invincible; who could kill him?

This murder case thus became a mystery in the hearts of countless Great Ming martial arts heroes.

Now this mystery is likely to be solved; how could everyone not be extremely excited.
