In the Great Ming Imperial Palace.
The Emperor of Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao, was handling the court affairs.
Cao Zhengchun, the Head of the Imperial Household and the Duke of the East Chamber, was present.
At this moment, a spy from the East Chamber suddenly appeared in the palace.
After bowing to the Emperor, he whispered something into Cao Zhengchun's ear.
Zhu Houzhao noticed that Cao Zhengchun and the spy from the East Chamber were whispering to each other. He couldn't help but frown.
Zhu Houzhao was very dissatisfied with this kind of behavior of talking behind his back.
However, he could not say anything.
Because of this, power fell into the Empress Dowager's hands.
And Cao Zhengchun was also an assistant minister appointed by the Empress Dowager.
All Zhu Houzhao could do was endure.
The Emperor was truly cowardly to have done this.
However, Zhu Houzhao did not sit still and wait for his death. Instead, he quietly accumulated his power and waited for an opportunity to seize power!
Right now, Zhu Houzhao was thirsty for talents!
It just so happened that there was a rumor in the martial world that the Pavilion Master of Lingnan Sword Pavilion, Chen Mu, had top-notch swordsmithing skills!
Moreover, the entire game was stirred up because of Chen Mu!
Zhu Houzhao had already dispatched his Brocade Guard to scout for news of Chen Mu.?
Once there was a chance, he would recruit Chen Mu under his wing and treat him as an honored guest!
In fact, if he could obtain Chen Mu, he could even share the Ming Dynasty with Chen Mu!
Cao Zhengchun did not know what the Emperor was thinking.
That was because he was shocked by the news of the spy!
The smile on Cao Zhengchun's face froze as he listened to the spy's whisper.
His eyes were even wide open, and his face was filled with uncontrollable shock.
Zhu Houzhao noticed the change in Cao Zhengchun's expression and frowned even more.
What had happened to make the East Chamber's Duke so shocked?
Without waiting for the Emperor to ask, Cao Zhengchun quickly walked to Zhu Houzhao's ear and whispered,"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the Liyang Dynasty's Grand Supervisor Han Diao Temple has recently appeared in our Great Ming!”
"It seems that they are here to kill Shangguan Haitang.”
Hearing this, the usually calm and reserved Zhu Houzhao could not sit still anymore.
He suddenly raised his head and asked anxiously,
How's Haitang?"
Zhu Houzhao had met Shangguan Haitang once.
Although the other party is a martial arts practitioner, he has bright eyes, white teeth and red lips.
She was truly a graceful lady that made people linger.
Just one glance was enough to make Zhu Houzhao miss Shangguan Haitang dearly.
Now, he heard that the human cat Han Diao Temple had come to kill Shangguan Haitang!
Zhu Houzhao was so concerned that he couldn't care less about himself.
Cao Zhengchun hurriedly said,"
"Your Majesty, Shangguan Haitang is fine. She is just unconscious from exhaustion.”
Hearing that Shangguan Haitang was fine, Zhu Houzhao finally relaxed.
He came back to his senses and continued to ask,
"What about the Human-Cat Han Diao Temple? How dare he appear in my Great Ming? I definitely can't let him return alive!”
"What is Zhu Bujue doing? Didn't the former emperor set up the Guarding Dragon Mountain Villa to prevent such a thing from happening?”
"The Liyang City's supervisor even dared to make a move within the Great Ming Country's borders, could it be that Zhu Bujue is still doing nothing?”
Cao Zhengchun said respectfully,
"Your Majesty, that Human Cat Han Diao Temple is already dead. Not even a corpse remains…"
Zhu Houzhao nodded and said with a hint of regret,"
"This Zhu Bujue is really useless! As the Liyang Grand Supervisor, Han Diao Temple should capture him alive and interrogate him.”
"Even if we kill him, we must keep the corpse of Han Diao Temple as an excuse to attack Li Yang!”
"Zhu Buguang was actually killed until not even his bones were left. What a waste!”
Regarding this matter, Cao Zhengchun stuttered,"
"Your Majesty, the person who killed Han Diao Temple was not Zhu Bujue, but…"
"Not Zhu Bujue? Who is that?"
"Your Majesty, the one who killed Zhu Bujue was Shangguan Haitang!”
"The reason why Shangguan Haitang was able to kill someone of a higher level was because of the Yellow River Sword that Pavilion Master Chen Mu of Lingnan Sword Pavilion had forged!”
As Cao Zhengchun finished speaking, the entire Great Ming Imperial Palace fell silent.
Zhu Houzhao could not believe his ears.
He knew that Shangguan Haitang was a martial artist.
He also knew that Shangguan Haitang's martial realm was only at the Vajra Realm.
However, that human cat was a Great Finger Profound Realm expert.
He could even kill Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants!
Shangguan Haitang killed Han Diao Temple?
Moreover, he had killed the other party until not even his bones were left!
How…how was this possible?
How was this possible?
It was simply nonsense and a fantasy!
Initially, when the spy told Cao Zhengchun about it, Cao Zhengchun did not want to believe it.
However, when the spy revealed that the Yellow River Sword used by Shangguan Haitang was forged by Chen Mu of Lingnan Sword Pavilion.
All his doubts instantly collapsed!
Cao Zhengchun had heard so much about Chen Mu's reputation in Lingnan Sword Pavilion that his ears were about to get calluses.
He killed Patriarch Bloodsaber with one word!
The Prince of Beiliang, Xu Xiao, went to invite him personally and went down respectfully.
Fairy Chi Lian found her treasured sword and sought its master. Her demonic blade was extremely evil.
Cao Zhengchun even knew that Yao Yue and Lian Xing, the two Palace Masters of the Shifting Flower Palace, had been willing to forge for a year in order to obtain the treasured sword.
The series of events in the martial arts world had made Chen Mu's image in Cao Zhengchun's mind become extremely mysterious and powerful.?
Right now, this mystery and power had been added to it by the Yellow River Sword!
No wonder it felt like there were experts fighting!
The monstrous sword qi surged in the distance!
It turned out that the sword qi was actually summoned by the Yellow River Sword!
Cao Zhengchun was extremely wary of the Pavilion Master of Lingnan Sword Pavilion.
Perhaps only a Land Deity would be able to contend against such a figure.
No matter which faction such an existence joined, it would cause the balance of the entire world to be overturned!
Although Cao Zhengchun was in the court, he was also considered half a person in the martial world.
When he thought about things, he would still start from the martial world.
However, Zhu Houzhao was different.
Han Diao Temple had learned that Shangguan Haitang had used the Yellow River Sword forged by Pavilion Master Chen Mu to kill Han Diao Temple.
Zhu Houzhao was filled with shock and astonishment.
Although he had never practiced martial arts, Zhu Houzhao knew this very well.
On the path of martial arts, how difficult was it to cross the gap between realms?
It was rare for a Vajra Realm expert to kill a Profound Finger Realm expert!
No!
It was unique!
That was impossible!
However, with the Yellow River Sword.
Shangguan Haitang had turned the impossible into reality!
It was enough to show how terrifying the Yellow River Sword was!
Chen Mu's terror!
A single sword could shorten such a huge gap!
After all, Chen Mu had the Hundred Thousand Sword Tomb!
Every sword in the sword tomb was like this.
100,000 swords for the Ming Dynasty.
What did that mean?
Don't say that I, Zhu Houzhao, have regained my power!
It was likely that he would even be able to dominate the world!
Zhu Houzhao's eyebrows jumped. This was an extremely excited reaction!
He had already made up his mind to recruit Chen Mu to the Great Ming Dynasty no matter the cost!
Zhu Houzhao understood that Chen Mu's appearance had already caused the entire world's situation to undergo an earth-shattering change...?
