Wei Xiaobao ran off without waiting for the fake Empress Dowager to reply.
"Humph!"
After Wei Xiaobao escaped, the fake empress dowager's anger subsided a little and she sat down again.
"Li Qingyang…Li Qingyang, the new Divine Might Marquis of the Imperial Court…"
She muttered the name, her eyes flashing as she gritted her teeth.
"Divine Might Marquis! What an awe-inspiring and domineering aura!! Did he really think that he was invincible?!”
It was fine if she didn't want to, but the more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She was furious and couldn't help but slap down fiercely!!
"Boom!"
The three-legged round table made of nanmu wood fell apart.
This two-hundred-year-old antique had become rotten wood.
"Saintess…"
A red-robed palace maid beside him was also quite angry, but her expression was a little worried.
"Should we…refuse? However, the Divine Might Marquis was able to defeat Ao Bai in a head-on battle. His martial arts were probably extremely terrifying and difficult to deal with.”
"Why don't we take this opportunity to leave the Qing Palace…"
"What are you talking about?" Another palace maid beside him immediately retorted,
"The Saintess and the eight of us, why would we be afraid of a mere Divine Might Marquis? Why are you running away in fear?"
"When we were dealing with Ao Bai, it was just like that. The number one warrior of the Qing Dynasty was just so-so.”
"Alright!"
The fake empress dowager's expression was uncertain. She waved her hand and said in a sharp voice,
"Shut up, let me think about it.”
She frowned and pondered. All kinds of thoughts interweaved in her mind. It was obvious that she had fallen into a battle between heaven and man.
After a full 15 minutes, her brows finally relaxed, and a trace of fatigue appeared on her face. Her tone was a little downcast.
"We……agree to his conditions and give him the Golden Snake Silk Hand manual.”
" What?!"
Many palace maids in red were shocked. They never thought that the saintess, who was so tough just now, would actually give in so easily.
"Saintess! The Golden Snake Silk Hand is a top-secret martial art in the sect…"
When she thought about how the martial arts that even they had been pursuing so hard were not qualified to cultivate, she was actually going to give it up to someone else…
"Enough!"
The fake empress dowager's face revealed a trace of coldness."
"This matter ends here! Since I've made the decision, I naturally have my reasons.”
After comparing the power in her hands with the unfathomable strength of the other party, she finally chose to admit defeat.
Although he felt helpless, there was nothing he could do.
She was the only one who realized how serious Ao Bai's injuries were.
His indestructible body was actually bruised and swollen, and his internal organs were displaced.
It was hard to imagine what kind of terrifying attack he had encountered to be able to beat Ao Bai, who had perfected the Thirteen Gangsters 'Golden Bell Shield, to such a state.
She knew that she was far from having such a powerful cross refining martial art. It was too risky to deal with such power.
It was just a martial arts technique. Compared to the shocking treasure that was involved in the forty-two chapters, it was nothing.
It was precisely because she had not obtained the key to this secret that she was unwilling to escape from the palace.
"Divine Might Marquis…What a Divine Might Marquis…"
…………
Before the sun had completely set, Li Qingyang had already arrived at Ao Bai's residence.
"Lord Wei, after the conversion of Ao Bai's assets, it is a total of thirteen million eight hundred thousand taels…"
Duo Long held a thick book in his hand and said to Wei Xiaobao,
"There are still many that haven't been recorded. I suggest that we move these to your residence and let you slowly count them…"
"Good, good, good. You did well."
Wei Xiaobao nodded in satisfaction. He was about to say something when a soldier reported,
"Report! Reporting to Lord Wei and Lord Duo, Marquis Shen Wei is here.”
" Big Brother Li is here?!"
Wei Xiaobao's spirits lifted as he quickly said,"Hurry up! Please come in. No, I'll welcome you personally.”
A moment later, Wei Xiaobao and Li Qingyang walked towards Ao Bai's study, one after the other. Duo Long followed behind.
"Big Brother Li, I know that ordinary gold, silver, and treasures are definitely not something you would be interested in. Oboi's private treasury is in his study.”
"When the time comes, you can choose whatever you want.”
"Yes." Li Qingyang nodded." That's good."”
Duo Long, who was behind them, shrunk his head and slowed down his footsteps, pretending not to hear anything.
"Also, the Emperor has already issued a secret edict for Hai Dafu to hand over the entire manual of the Melting Bone Soft Palm. After Hai Dafu received the edict, he began to write down the manual.”
"I believe that I'll be able to get it by tonight at the most! When the time comes, I'll personally bring it to you, Big Brother Li.”
"Very good, this is also a good thing."
Li Qingyang smiled.
Duo Long, who was behind them, heard their secret conversation. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he couldn't help but slow down his pace.
"Brother Li, we've arrived at the study!"
The three of them entered Oboi's study. The mechanism had already been activated, and it was connected to a small secret room.
In the secret room, there were many big red wooden boxes. Some were already open, but most were still closed.
There were three things hanging on the wall: a golden soft armor, a seven-inch-long flintlock gun, and an ancient painting.
"Brother Li, look! This was the legendary Heavenly Silkworm Armor that could not break anything, and the legendary foreign spear that could break anything!!”
Wei Xiaobao pointed at the armor and gun hanging on the wall.
Li Qingyang didn't look at those, but looked at the remaining painting. In the painting, there was a Buddha draped in a red cassock.
This Buddha statue seemed to contain some kind of unique charm that Li Qingyang could sense.
However, when he wanted to sense it further, there was no trace of it, and he could not catch any of the bright spots.
"Hmm? This Buddha portrait seems to hide some kind of secret…Interesting…"
Li Qingyang finally said,"
"I want the Heavenly Silkworm Armor and this Buddha portrait.”
He hadn't cultivated the Thwart Refinement Kung Fu, and his body was only at the level of an ordinary martial artist. The Heavenly Silkworm Armor could greatly enhance his life-preservation ability.
"As for this spear, Little Treasure, your kung fu is too weak. Keep it for yourself.”
"Alright, this painting and Heavenly Silkworm Armor will belong to Big Brother Li…"
Wei Xiaobao looked away from the Heavenly Silkworm Armor, somewhat reluctant to part.
He still cherished his life, so he naturally hoped to have a rare treasured armor to protect himself.
Li Qingyang's gaze swept across the many boxes in the room."
"Where is Ao Bai's secret manual?!”
