" Moreover, according to this old servant's observation, that Empress 'cultivation is probably not weak.
"At least not worse than the Saintess of Kind Boathouse.”
Lu Chen nodded thoughtfully.
In his memory, that Noble Consort Xiao was indeed just a commoner girl from an ordinary family background.
Because she was beautiful, she was sent to the palace by her father and became an imperial concubine.
However, he really had no impression of it.
"I've been in the palace for two years, but I've barely seen her once." Lu Chen's finger gently tapped the desk.
"I didn't expect him to be a martial arts expert.”
"Do you want this old servant to test it out?”Yi Kui asked.
Lu Chen waved his hand.""Just wait for her to take the initiative."
He really didn't care much about a Connate Realm.
"If there is anything in the Imperial Palace that the martial artists of the pugilistic world want, it is probably in the royal study.”
Lu Chen shook his head with a faint smile." Whether it's the cultivation technique that I cultivate, or all kinds of secret scrolls and strange books, they are all recorded here."”
"So, no matter what my imperial consort is thinking, she can't get around me in the end and will come looking for me.”
Yi Kui nodded slightly and didn't say anything more. She quietly waited at the side.
His duty was only to guard and occasionally remind the Emperor. As for the rest, he would not care if it was not his responsibility.
......
Time passed. Soon, a piece of news spread in the martial world.
On the 15th day of the first lunar month, on the night of the full moon, a sword came from the west at the top of the Forbidden City, and an immortal flew out of the sky.
The two sword grandmasters were fighting in the Imperial City.
This was supposed to be the battle of the pinnacle of swordsmanship that the entire Jianghu was watching.
In the end, he was killed by the mysterious expert of Great Wei, and even his corpse was hung on the city gate of the capital!
The Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets had also released the news at the right time, saying that two Sword Dao Grandmasters had died and that the imperial court had a new grandmaster, so they wanted to rearrange the Heaven Rankings.
For a moment, a storm was brewing.
In a restaurant in the capital, a large number of Jianghu guests had gathered.
Of course, compared to the past, they were much more restrained now. Even the weapons on their bodies were tightly hidden.
At a table in the corner.
A middle-aged man in a dark golden robe and four men in black wearing bamboo hats sat quietly, listening to the conversation of these martial artists.
"Hey, everyone, do you know anything about that mysterious expert from the Imperial Court?”
"I heard that even the Heaven Rankings of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets are about to be rearranged.”
"The White Cloud City Lord and Sword God are ranked eleventh and twelfth respectively on the Heaven List. If the mysterious expert of the imperial court is included in the list, he will probably enter the top ten directly!”
There were very few Grandmasters in the martial world.
Compared to the vast martial arts world, it was as rare as a phoenix feather or a qilin horn.
Each of them was the core of a major sect.
However, this did not mean that there was no distinction between Grandmasters.
Just like how the previous Holy Lord of Kind Boathouse killed a grandmaster of the Evil Demon Sect's Emotion Annihilation Path with a single sword strike.
In the eyes of martial artists, the top ten Grandmasters on the Heaven Roll and the Grandmasters behind them were two different realms!
It could be said that as long as one entered the top ten, they would stand at the top of the entire martial world!
Soon, the Jianghu guests in the restaurant changed the topic of conversation to another matter.
"Everyone, I heard that in the suburbs of the capital, the imperial court has newly established some Dragon Protection Secret Guardians. Does anyone know their background?”
For a moment, the surrounding people looked at each other."This can't be a place as terrifying as the East Chamber, right?”
"I'm not sure. I don't know if it's just a name.”
"I've heard that it's the same organization as the East Chamber. They're all lackeys of the imperial court."
Compared to the obscure Secret Guardians of the Dragon Guard, the East Intelligence Bureau was already well-known.
On the night of the full moon, a superintendent and two deputy supervisors had killed two grandmasters of the sword.
This terrifying battle record directly made the East Hall famous.
He had even been called a hound by the Emperor of Great Wei!
They were hunting people from the martial world!
At a table not far away, a man wearing a black bamboo hat whispered,""Commander, should we…"
" No rush." The middle-aged man in a dark golden robe waved his hand calmly."Let's hear what they have to say."
One of them, who was obviously a little drunk, said in a daze,
"Hehe, you don't know. I heard that there are experts who want to dampen the prestige of the imperial court. They are targeting the Dragon Protection Secret Guardians!”
The surrounding people immediately became interested and hurriedly urged,"Brother, tell me in detail. What's the situation? Who wants to make a move?"
The drunk man smiled smugly."You've heard of the Demon Sect's Two Paths and Six Sects, right?”
"Of course. Who doesn't know about the Demon Sect?"”
The drunken man smacked his lips.”
"As for why he targeted the Secret Guardian, it's simple.”
"I heard that the successor of the Passion Extinguishing Sect was captured by the Eagle Hound of the East Hall.”
"But the East Chamber has three supervisors and deputy supervisors. Like the Imperial Palace, it's a dragon's pool and a tiger's den.”
"That's why the experts of the Flower Sect targeted the Dragon Secret Guardians and wanted to use them as a breakthrough.”
For a moment, the surrounding Jianghu people were discussing animatedly. Most of them wanted to watch the show.
At a table in a corner not far away.
The middle-aged man in a dark golden robe held his wine glass without changing his expression."Emotion Annihilation Dao!"
The Dragon Secret Guardians and the East Hall shared intelligence, and they had also obtained all the secrets of the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets.
Therefore, he was very familiar with these forces in the martial arts world.
The Passion Extinguishing Path was a branch of the Demon Sect and one of the Six Paths. It was once a great sect that shook the martial arts world.
Unfortunately, ten years ago, the grandmaster of the Path of Extinguishing Emotions was killed by the previous Holy Master of Kind Boathouse.
This force was already useless.
At the very least, no one had ever heard of the birth of a new grandmaster in the Passion Extinguishing Sect.
However, the Six Paths of the Demon Sect were united, so they could not be careless.
"Commander, should we bring this person here to interrogate him for more information?”A man wearing a black bamboo hat asked in a low voice.
Zhu Jiulie chuckled."
"Moreover, it's good to keep this place. Isn't it easier to gather information here than to find out information from spies?”
