His gaze had already been fixed on the entire Nine Provinces!
Ximen Chuixue is indeed powerful.
But before the Azure Dragon Society's dragon head, twelve halls, and three hundred and sixty-five altars.
Still three points inferior.
"Now I can rest assured."
Lu Xiaofeng's lips curled up slightly, then a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.
"However... how dare you assert that the piece of ice will definitely fall to you?"
"Don't forget, his Snowfall Sword Technique is no less impressive than your Celestial Flying Immortal Technique!"
Seeing that he once again showed that inquisitive look, Ye Gucheng simply closed his eyes and remained silent.
Even after years of lying low in the Azure Dragon Society, one still wouldn't have such confidence—
Let alone the position of the Great Dragon Head, he can't even get past his own conscience.
The terror of the Green Dragon Society can only be known by those who have experienced it firsthand.
The resources available are vast, but if they still cannot widen the gap with Ximen Chuixue...
He'd rather die by a single sword strike than talk about a decisive battle.
"Fine, then don't tell me!"
Lu Xiaofeng feigned boredom and stormed off.
My heart, which had been hanging in suspense, has finally settled.
Ye Gucheng watched his retreating figure, chuckling softly without saying a word.
Zhu Houzhao's eyes were deep and dark as he asked in a calm voice:
"Have Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue arrived yet?"
"Your Majesty is wise." Wei Jinzhong bowed. "Emissaries from various factions across the Nine Provinces and from various countries have also arrived in droves."
"There's bound to be a good show tomorrow night."
A flash of cold light disappeared from his sleeve.
"Very good." Zhu Houzhao nodded. "Is my arrangement satisfactory?"
He suddenly remembered something and pressed for an answer.
Although he had previously gained complete control of the Ming Dynasty with the assistance of the Night Emperor.
But during the purge of the rebel party
The court's elite forces
Indeed, a considerable amount was lost.
In addition, a gathering of heroes will take place tonight.
Therefore, the deployment was confirmed repeatedly.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured."
"The Six Doors, the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and the Eastern and Western Depots are all under defense."
"Lord Divine Marquis, being more cautious, specifically invited his mentor to teach him."
Wei Jinzhong reported with a smile.
"Zhuge Zhengwo's master?"
"What is your cultivation level?"
Zhu Houzhao's eyebrows twitched slightly.
A look of inquiry flickered in his eyes.
He naturally knew about this Six-Five Divine Marquis.
He was the teacher of the Four Great Constables.
Commander of the 180,000 Imperial Guards instructors
He was granted a noble title for his outstanding military achievements.
He and the Iron-Blooded Marquis are known as the Twin Pillars.
If he hadn't suddenly retired back then,
Zhu ignored the time of the rebellion.
He alone is enough to keep them in check!
To be able to cultivate such a person,
His teacher must be an unparalleled master.
"This humble servant is also not entirely clear on the matter."
"I've heard that senior has been in seclusion for many years."
"But at least..."
"Land Immortal in its late stage or even peak."
Wei Jinzhong hesitated slightly before answering.
Although their cultivation level is inferior to that of the nations they represent.
Responding to Tonight's Unexpected Events
"Just wait and see tonight."
Zhu Houzhao nodded slightly.
104 - Full Moon Night, At the Forbidden City!
The entire imperial city was shrouded in...
A chilling atmosphere, as if a storm is brewing.
Not only did the martial arts world hold their breath,
Even ordinary people in the city felt it
A sense of oppressive undercurrents.
The once bustling capital city now seemed unusually quiet.
There were only a few vendors on the street, busy making a living; the rest were all martial arts practitioners with weapons in hand and cold expressions.
However, there are still noisy places within the city.
Inns, restaurants, teahouses, and brothels were all packed with people, a stark contrast to the desolate scene outside.
..........
Cao Zhengchun stood with his hands behind his back, his cold gaze sweeping over the neatly lined-up guards.
"Have you memorized all the tasks?"
"If anyone makes a mistake tonight..."
He suddenly narrowed his eyes, his whole body radiating a chilling murderous aura.
"I will send him to the imperial prison to sober him up!"
These words sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.
They knew all too well what it was like to be imprisoned.
"Understood!"
The guards hurriedly responded, cold sweat beading on their foreheads.
Cao Zhengchun smiled with satisfaction and waved casually.
"All of you, step back."
..........
The West Depot's yamen, however, presented a completely different scene.
Yu Huatian sat leisurely at the head of the table, slowly savoring his fragrant tea.
A dozen or so high-ranking officials from the West Factory stood silently on both sides, solemnly awaiting instructions.
"His Majesty has summoned our four organizations to act together this time, and the importance of the mission is self-evident."
"I have only one request for you!"
"We must not only successfully complete our mission, but also outshine the other three parties!"
"Let our Western Depot stand out from the crowd and win His Majesty's favor!"
"If anyone dares to..."
"I will make sure he begs for death but cannot live!"
Yu Huatian sipped his fragrant tea, his sinister face exuding a chilling aura.
His cold gaze swept over the crowd.
Although the tone was flat.
But it sent chills down the spines of everyone present.
My back was soaked with cold sweat.
The group exchanged glances and bowed in unison in agreement.
"Your subordinate swears to serve the Commander to the death!"
.......
Similar scenes were playing out simultaneously at the Six Doors and the Embroidered Uniform Guard offices.
Compared to Cao Zhengchun and Yu Huatian's schemes.
However, they were completely focused on these two things.
He was only thinking about how to share the burdens of the ruler.
Avoid creating unnecessary complications.
.......
This property is owned by the Hua family.
The room was now completely full.
Listen to the sound of the wine being poured.
Hua Manlou smiled faintly:
"You're quite composed?"
"Don't you miss them?"
There was a hint of amusement in his voice.
He understood Lu Xiaofeng's temperament best.
Logically, he should be restless and uneasy.
Unexpectedly, he found himself here, leisurely drinking alone.
"It's all been arranged."
"I saw them last night."
"Otherwise, how would I have time to drink with you?"
Lu Xiaofeng replied, swirling his wine cup.
"I see."
Hua Manlou suddenly realized.
