" Your Majesty, this is the news from Chang 'an Local Government this morning. The magistrate of Chang' an resisted arrest and was killed on the spot. However, according to the investigation at the scene, the magistrate of Chang 'an was a follower of the White Lotus Society.”
Bang!
With a loud explosion, the pile of memorials on the table where the golden thread nanmu was was in a mess.
"A magistrate, a high-ranking official with great power, is actually a believer of the White Lotus Society. Very good, very good!”
That voice of gnashing teeth, at this moment, the few people below were all silent. If this matter were to be spread out, it would simply be a shocking matter.
Moreover, this was the magistrate of Chang 'an. What about the others? This was definitely not the first.
"Your Majesty, I read the ancient records last night and discovered the secret of the item that the White Lotus Society wants. This item is one of the sacred objects of the Hundred Lotus Society, and like the Nine Dragon Jade Pendant, it carries a huge secret. Perhaps these two things were one. The White Lotus Society first discovered this thing and then stole His Majesty's Nine Dragon Jade Wall. If these two things were combined, it might be the key to unlocking that huge secret!”
At this time, another Jinyiwei commander also stood out and looked at the Great Bright Emperor,"
"Nine Dragon Jade Pendant? Ancient bronze mirror? When do you think the White Lotus Society will make a move?”
" That's right, Your Majesty. According to the information I've received, the White Lotus Society's activities are ordinary. They can silently steal the Luoyang Prefecture's silver and fuse it into a Buddha. This method..."
Hearing the Embroidered Uniform Guards Commander's words, even the Bright Emperor was shocked.
That's right, this was the Luoyang government. If they withdrew the 100,000 official ingots from its treasury that day, the entire country would be in danger.
The treasury had 100,000 official ingots and a million taels of gold. That was an emergency for the entire country. Once it was lost, it would definitely not be as simple as Luoyang Prefecture. It would be a great chaos for the entire country.
"Investigate, investigate thoroughly. We must completely destroy the White Lotus Society before they take action. Otherwise, I'll see you all with your heads! Which gentleman sword wasn't the number one expert of the righteous path? Tell him that if he makes a great contribution, I will reward him handsomely!”
"This…"
Looking at the few people who were in a difficult position, the Bright Emperor immediately looked at them angrily.
"What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, Jun Zijian Yue Buqun is the Sect Master of Mount Hua, but he is also a wanderer in the martial arts world. They usually disdain to associate with us, and we also disdain to associate with them. Therefore…it is very difficult to get him to work for us!”
Upon hearing Feng Yuan's words, the Bright Emperor looked at them angrily. What was going on?
Under the heavens, there was no land that belonged to the king, and there was no land that belonged to the king's subjects! It was just a small request, and they couldn't do it?
"Your Majesty, Eunuch Feng is right. These people of the martial world do not put the Imperial Court in their eyes at all. Take Liu Zhengfeng, the general that Your Majesty conferred the title on last time, for example. However, due to the collusion between the righteous and demonic sects, after the imperial edict was read that day, Mount Song Sect wanted to destroy his entire family. The Huashan Gentleman Sword, on account of their former brotherhood, crippled Liu Zhengfeng's martial arts and imprisoned him on Mount Hua. No matter which alliance master of the Five Mountains on Mount Song, or this Gentleman Sword, they did not put the imperial court in their eyes at all. "Moreover, this is not just an isolated phenomenon. The people of the martial arts world rarely interact with our imperial court!”
"You said that the martial world is a place that our Great Ming Imperial Court can't control?”
The few people below could imagine Emperor Daming's mood from his anger.
" Your Majesty, please forgive us. But it can also be said that the stronger their martial arts are, the less they will care about the imperial court. This Gentleman Sword is the leader of the orthodox sects in the pugilistic world. If he hadn't been schemed against by the White Lotus Society, he wouldn't have told us so many secrets about the White Lotus Society. Think about it, Your Majesty. He knows so much about the White Lotus Society and even wants to settle a personal grudge with them. If it weren't for the fact that he was schemed against by the White Lotus Society, would we have known about their conspiracy?”
Emperor Daming clenched his fists when he heard the commander of the Brocade Guard. That's right. If the White Lotus Society hadn't schemed against Noble Sword, they would have only realized how terrifying this malignant tumor was when the White Lotus Society had raised their army.
"How is the martial arts of this Gentleman Sword?"
"The Noble Sword is the leader of the righteous path in the pugilistic world. It is said that his martial arts have already surpassed the leader of the Five Mountains, Zuo Lengchan, and the abbot of Shaolin, Master Fang Zheng. Even if the three of us join forces, we might not be his match.”
"If he is so powerful, then Eunuch Feng will pass down an edict to this Gentleman Sword. If he surrenders to the Imperial Court, I will confer him the title of Divine Sword Marquis!”
Divine Sword Marquis!
Hearing Emperor Daming's words, they all sucked in a breath of cold air. What kind of reward was this? One had to know that this was the treatment of a noble.
They had worked hard for decades, and now they were only a few third and fourth-rank officials.
Although they were very powerful, their true ranks were only at the third or fourth rank. After all, those at the first or second rank were the heads of the three provinces and six ministries. In the future, they would be treated as the official rank and deputy rank of the country.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Although the few of them were unwilling to accept it, they were still too good at martial arts.
The group went down. They all had their own matters to attend to. This time, Emperor Daming's mission was to exterminate the White Lotus Society. If things didn't go well, they would all come down.
This time, it was a matter of life and death. They had no choice but to be cautious.
As they left, Jun Yue also arrived in Kaifeng, bringing Lin Pingzhi along.
Lin Pingzhi had to go back to worship his ancestors and also to take the Lin family's ancestral item. Therefore, Zuo Lengchan asked Jun Yue to take care of him in the name of passing by. However, Jun Yue knew what Zuo Lengchan was up to.
Not to mention that he had already copied the sword manual, even the complete Sunflower Manual in his hand was more powerful than this Evil-Warding Sword Manual. Moreover, if he wasn't interested in this thing, just the eight words that entered his eyes would make him feel a chill.
"Master, we're in Kaifeng!"
Kaifeng was one of the eight ancient capitals. The most famous dynasty that was rooted here was the Song Dynasty. At that time, Kaifeng was the capital of Bianjing.
After entering Kaifeng City, the ancient capital of Kaifeng was also extremely prosperous. After all, compared to the ancient capital of Chang 'an and Luoyang, Kaifeng was the capital of the Song Dynasty. At that time, it was praised as the richest capital in the world.
As soon as he entered Kaifeng, Jun Yue was stopped by two people.
"Greetings, Sect Master Yue!"
Jun Yue looked at them. Under their ordinary clothes, Jun Yue could indeed tell that they were from the public sect because their sabers had the symbol of the public sect.
"Why are you looking for me?"
"Sect Leader Yue, it's our lord who wants to invite you to meet him. Sect Leader Yue, please!”
"Master!"
The disciples of Mount Hua could guess who they were after hearing the way their lord addressed them. They looked at Jun Yue with worry. After all, they looked down on the imperial court, but the imperial court was a colossus that they could not afford to offend.
"It's fine. You guys can go and take a look around. I'll go with them to see the lord they're talking about. Don't worry, there's no place in the world that can trap me!”
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing Jun Yue's tone, they nodded. With Jun Yue's strength, no one in the world could stop him.
The two people from the imperial court entered a restaurant. When he came up, he saw a white-haired middle-aged man. He had the same white hair as him, but his temperament was completely different. His was elegant and fairy-like, but the other person gave off a gloomy feeling!
Jun Yue had met him once in Beiping, so he was no stranger to him. He was Feng Yuan, the Duke of the East Chamber.
"Sect Master Yue, I've heard a lot about you. I didn't expect Sect Master Yue to really be like the legendary nurturing, regaining his youth!”
Feng Yuan's eyes lit up when he looked at Jun Yue. After all, eunuchs had lost the greatest pleasure of being a man, so they naturally had other special pursuits.
"Hehe, Eunuch Gong, you flatter me. It's just a way to maintain one's health with Daoist cultivation techniques!”
Jun Yue knew that he was born to be a genius, and that was why everyone who saw him was amazed by his unreal appearance.
"Of the Nine Arts of Mount Hua, Purple Clouds is number one. It seems that the effects of this Purple Clouds Divine Art are really extraordinary. It's a method to cultivate and become an immortal! However, this time, I have something else to tell Sect Leader Yue. His Majesty has asked me to ask Sect Leader Yue if he is interested in joining the Imperial Court. If Sect Leader Yue joins the Imperial Court, His Majesty will re-confer Sect Leader Yue the title of Divine Sword Marquis. This is a blessing from the heavens!”
"Many thanks for Your Majesty's good intentions, but this Yue is after all a grass in the pugilistic world and does things in the pugilistic world. Thus, this Yue can only disappoint Your Majesty's good intentions!”
Jun Yue rejected the great reward without hesitation. The Divine Sword Marquis was definitely a great reward, but if the Great Ming Emperor heard his voice, his entire Huashan family might be executed.
Even if he couldn't tell, he didn't want to get involved in politics.
"How dare you!"
Feng Yuan didn't expect Jun Yue to reject the imperial court's offer. He immediately threw a palm at Jun Yue.
"Hehehe…"
Jun Yue didn't do anything, but with just a wave of purple aura Qi, Feng Yuan felt an unfathomable power coming out from Jun Yue's sleeve.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
After three consecutive steps, the entire upper floor of the restaurant trembled, but Jun Yue smiled and said,"
"Thank you for the wine, sir. This Yue will take his leave!”
Jun Yue looked at the shocked Feng Yuan, turned around and disappeared from the door. Feng Yuan looked at Jun Yue's back and did not make a move.
Because of the competition just now, she already knew that the gap between her and Jun Yue was too big.
The three of them could defeat Jun Yue if they joined forces? What a joke! He finally understood that even if they joined forces, they might not be able to withstand Jun Yue's palm strike.
They were weak?
No, in the martial world, they were all sect leaders. But Jun Yue was too strong, the leader of the righteous path, the number one in the world. He finally understood that this was far from what they had imagined.
