Chapter 403 Martial Arts Is a Tree

On a late midsummer night…

In the middle of the night, the clear sky began to become gloomy.

The dark sky shrouded West Lake. The stars disappeared. West Lake was quiet in the light of Lin’an, like a frozen and dim and blurry landscape painting.

At one moment, the gloomy and depressive night was suddenly lit up by a pale light in the sky.

The light illuminated the bustling landscape of Lin’an. The sky was lit up for a moment, and then became still again.

The next second, the roar of thunder broke the silence in the world.

Torrential rain swept over all of Lin’an in an instant.

Time at the West Lake Clubhouse was still flowing forward among the life of luxury.

West Lake under the rain was beautiful.

However, the water of West Lake under the torrential rain was undulating. Under its magnificence, there was a violent rage that could devour everything.

The night was getting darker.

It seemed that the whole world was left with heavy rain falling non-stop.

Deity still sat in the room of the clubhouse.

The laptop video was off.

The conversation had ended a long time ago.

Deity sat motionless in the same position where he had been talking. He had been silent for an unknown amount of time.

He had talked a lot with that mysterious Deity, but he seemed to say very little.

The opponent was so shrewd that Deity never received any extra information from beginning to end.

He only knew that the other party wanted to ask him to kill Qin Weibai.

He was very determined.

He was resolute at almost any cost.

Deity quietly thought about everything that had happened tonight.

Not many things had happened tonight, but the aftertaste of those things lingered for a long time.

The flowers on Lonely Mountain, Li Honghe’s attitude, the mysterious His Majesty, two disciples in the Invincible Realm, Qin Weibai, the chaos in Eastern Europe…

Everything seemed to be clear at a glance.

But Deity had never been completely clear about the subtle connection between them.

This mysterious His Majesty knew a lot.

Qin Weibai also knew a lot.

But what exactly did His Majesty confirm recently so that he wanted to kill Qin Weibai?

Who was he and what did he want?

The deputy commander of the Holy Disarmament Corps of the Vatican was his disciple.

East Island Swordsman Liusheng Cangquan was his disciple.

Did he have other disciples?

The disciples were of very high quality, so high that Deity felt greatly worried.

If the disciple in the Vatican had the ability to contain Lin Fengting after the coronation, it showed that the strength of the other party was close to the peak of the Invincible Realm.

Liusheng Cangquan’s current strength was still far from the peak of the Invincible Realm.

But now he had the qualification for the Divine List.

Two disciples in the Invincible Realm both had the power of the Invincible Realm on the Divine List.

In recent decades, except for the Wang family of Beihai and the Li family at the peak, no power in the Dark World could have such a luxurious lineup.

What’s more, the two that were good enough to be on the Divine List were just the disciples.

Or in other words, two lackeys.

The Invincible Realm was the peak of the Dark World.

How many among billions of people around the world could reach this state?

If the Divine & Holy Lists were added up, there would be about 30 people in total. There were a few who had not been on the list after breaking through to the realm. With them counted, there were only so many people. There were also unknown ones win the Invincible Realm, but they were even less than the ones who were to be on the list. Besides, they would not affect the general trend.

Everyone in the Invincible Realm, strong or weak, was strong-minded. No matter whether they were noble or mean, they had their own dignity in their hearts. If these two disciples united and cooperated, they would base themselves on the Jifeng Sword-reining School. Within a few years, they would be good enough to establish a superpower in the Dark World. It would be difficult for such people to be lackeys.

How did that His Majesty do it?

What was his ultimate goal in doing all this?

One question after another emerged in Deity’s mind, and eventually turned into a mess.

He subconsciously wanted to check Liusheng Cangquan and the second-hand commander of Holy Disarmament Corps. But his intuition told him that this would have little effect.

He did not agree to cooperate with His Majesty, nor did he refuse. The talk seemed useless, but it laid some foundations.

The night was getting darker.

The torrential rain outside the clubhouse became even more frantic.

All the lights of the West Lake Clubhouse were fully turned on. The bright light shone outward in the night rain, bringing out a halo. The lights were intertwined in the rain. Under the deep night, the light intertwined with dreamy colors appearing, like a beautiful rainbow.

A low-key Volkswagen slowly entered the West Lake Clubhouse during the heavy rain.

It was three o’clock in the morning.

A figure passed through the rain and walked into the room where Li Kuangtu was.

Li Kuangtu was still silent, and did not seem to notice anyone coming in.

But His Majesty had an appointment with him today, and he was also meeting other people here.

“Glad to see you, Your Majesty.”

The figure in a black suit placed the black umbrella in the corner of the room and bowed slightly to Deity, with a respectful tone and a serious attitude. He showed very formal respect.

“Your Majesty?”

Deity turned to look at the figure bending down deeply, and laughed at himself. “What kind of majesty am I? I don’t like this title.”

“Your martial arts are the best in the world. Your flourishing sword intent is equal with that of Sword Emperor. Of course you deserve the title of Your Majesty.”

The figure in a black suit slowly straightened up.

He was not short, but he was not burly. Standing here, he emitted a very tough and upright feeling. His handsome and clean appearance was not very outstanding, but his temperament was extremely eye-catching. When he gently bit his lips, he looked resolutely cold, but his eyes were calm and indifferent.

This was the face of a young man.

He was 27 or 28 years old.

He had a face that almost every young master in Zhongzhou State knew today.

It was a face that even impressed the world a little during the final maneuver a few days ago.

It was the face of Jiang Shangyu.

Deity looked at Jiang Shangyu calmly and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Deity.

Jiang Shangyu.

This was an estimated meeting that no one expected, and it was also the first official meeting between the two.

There was nothing to appreciate in Deity’s eyes, only a touch of satisfaction, as if he was looking at a usable pawn.

Jiang Shangyu’s expression was calm.

Calm and respectful.

It was unclear if he had contacted Purgatory of Heaven Capital actively, or vice versa.

In some coincidences that seemed to be accidental but were actually inevitable, the two parties were connected.

Jiang Shangyu had first worked for Purgatory of Heaven Capital two years ago.

No one knew this.

Even Jiang Shan was unclear about it.

“In the final maneuver, you performed well.”

Deity looked at him for a moment, and said lightly, “I am looking forward to your future.”

Jiang Shangyu hesitated, seemingly unsure about what to call him, and finally said quietly, “You speak highly of me.”

“Not at all.”

Deity shook his head. “What I see is your potential. If you tell me that you have no potential, it only proves that I have no vision. Purgatory of Heaven Capital does not need modesty. If a capable person deliberately lowers his position, that is incompetence. You have determined your Invincible Realm road before you were 30 years old. Before you reach 40 years old, it is likely you will be in the Invincible Realm. You may be able to stand at the forefront of the Divine List in the future.”

Jiang Shangyu stood silently without speaking.

“In the past two years, you have done a few things for Purgatory of Heaven Capital, and you are doing very well. The Jiang family is now in a delicate position. I can see the direction of your efforts. To some extent, I have no conflict with the direction of the Jiang family. And you and your family can play a big role on my chessboard, which is why I am meeting with you today.”

Deity looked at Jiang Shangyu’s calm face and laughed lightly. His voice was very low. Because it was so real and clear, it sounded extremely loud in Jiang Shangyu’s ears. “Jiang Shangyu, would you like to join the Purgatory of Heaven Capital?”

This question was not difficult to answer.

If he did not, Jiang Shangyu would not have come today.

Two years ago, he would not have been in contact with people of Purgatory of Heaven Capital.

So he nodded without hesitation and said with a smile, “I would like to play as a pawn for Your Majesty.”

He still called him Your Majesty.

Deity did not say much, but said indifferently, “When I come to Zhongzhou State, I have the Jiang family’s place beside me.”

Jiang Shangyu bent down deeply and bowed.

“In the future, you will contact me directly and be responsible for me.” Deity continued to say.

In Purgatory of Heaven Capital, being able to directly contact Deity was a great glory, which could already be regarded as a reward.

“Ok.”

Jiang Shangyu responded respectfully, but a touch of hesitation flashed across his face.

“What?”

Deity raised his eyebrows.

“Cold Moon’s condition is a bit bad.”

Jiang Shangyu spoke and looked up at Deity. “She has little connection with me recently, and her condition seems to be a little unusual…”

Purgatory of Heaven Capital, Cold Moon.

This was a name that was considered a secret among the high-level in the Purgatory of Heaven Capital.

In the past two years, the one who Jiang Shangyu had contact with was not Dawn Daybreak, but rather Cold Moon.

Only her contact with Jiang Shangyu was the most convenient.

Only Jiang Shangyu noticed that the other party seemed to be in trouble.

Deity was silent for a while.

“It’s all right.”

He thought about it and said, “She can do it by herself.”

Jiang Shangyu nodded his head and asked, “Does Your Majesty need me to go to Eastern Europe? Zhongzhou State is restarting the Snowdance Corps. If you need a pawn, I can operate in the Snowdance Corps.”

“No need.”

Deity shook his head and handed Jiang Shangyu a glass of red wine.

The wine was good wine.

But after being open for a long time, the taste inevitably became a bit bad.

“How is your injury?” he asked.

Jiang Shangyu held his wine glass in the palm of his hand and shook his head. “The problem is not great. It can be cured within half a year. The main problem is the corruption of the realm. But it is not serious. Now I am still in the Thunder-shocking Realm.”

In the final maneuver, he teamed up with Wang Shengxiao, Gu Hanshan, and Song Ci and was seriously injured by Li Tianlan.

Gu Hanshan, who had never fallen in his realm, was the least injured.

At the same time, Wang Shengxiao and Song Ci chose the most violent realm-falling attack at the same time, and fell directly from the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm to the peak of the Fire-flaming Realm. At this time, they received the most serious injuries.

Jiang Shangyu also made a realm-falling attack.

But he stayed at the peak of the Fire-flaming Realm for three full years. For the Fire-flaming Realm, he had reached a fulfilled state.

Therefore, after his realm-falling attack, he retreated a little.

Compared to the one before the final maneuver, his realm was still higher. As long as the injuries were healed, the problem was not big.

Now he had his own path., so in the upcoming time, he did not need to do a long retreat or stay in silence.

What he needed most was to inspire his potential between life and death and widen his Invincible Realm path.

“Then you will go to Tiannan,” Deity said.

“Tiannan?”

Jiang Shangyu repeated it, with some doubts.

“East Emperor Palace will also go to Tiannan.”

The voice of Deity was calm.

East Emperor Palace.

Tiannan.

Jiang Shangyu’s body suddenly trembled.

Suddenly, the pattern of the joint operation of all forces in Tiannan suddenly became clear to him.

The members of East Emperor Palace were linked by the major forces inside and outside Tiannan.

For just a moment, Jiang Shangyu understood what Tiannan meant to Li Tianlan.

“That Tiannan.”

Jiang Shangyu took a deep breath and muttered to himself.

Deity did not speak.

For him, East Emperor Palace was actually not important.

In the chaos of Eastern Europe, he had to get that flower.

And to get that flower, he had to get Li Tianlan’s body.

Once Li Tianlan died, East Emperor Palace would have no meaning to Tiannan. But if there was no East Emperor Palace in that area, it would still be the battlefield between the Purgatory of Heaven Capital and the Wang family of Beihai. A hidden pawn like Jiang Shangyu buried there might play an unexpected role.

And… just in case… if Li Tianlan was lucky to survive this time, Jiang Shangyu in Tiannan could also become a key piece for Deity and Li Tianlan to compete for the domination of the Purgatory of Heaven Capital.

He was the supreme master of the Purgatory of Heaven Capital and had supremacy.

But the Purgatory of Heaven Capital was the Li family’s.

During the years of the Li family’s collapse, Deity did not know what the old man who was good at playing to a draw in chess had planned. But the Purgatory of Heaven Capital was definitely one of his greatest works.

The Purgatory of Heaven Capital was very strong.

Deity loved this scheme very much.

But the only thing he did not like was the stance of some of the core of the Purgatory of Heaven Capital.

Deity believed that that core group was loyal enough to themselves.

Unfortunately, they were also loyal to Li Tianlan.

What Li Honghe wished for the most was that Deity and Li Tianlan could coordinate the power inside the Purgatory of Heaven Capital, and finally let Li Tianlan control the whole Purgatory of Heaven Capital in Tiannan, and then return to Zhongzhou State to reproduce the Li family’s glory.

This required Deity’s willingness to let it go.

But how willing was he?

If he was not willing, he had to struggle and grab it.

For Deity, if Li Tianlan died in Eastern Europe, there would be no hidden dangers in the future of the Purgatory of Heaven Capital. This was the best ending.

But if the chaos in Eastern Europe was not as expected, letting Jiang Shangyu be there now might play an unexpected role.

Jiang Shangyu, Li Tianlan, Dijiang.

Deity looked at Jiang Shangyu thoughtfully.

Of the three, if the latter two were at the same level, then Jiang Shangyu was undoubtedly still too weak.

Deity’s gaze was a little hesitant.

In his mind, Li Tianlan, Wang Shengxiao, Jiang Shangyu, Gu Hanshan, Song Ci, and Dongcheng Rushi were undoubtedly the most promising young men in Zhongzhou State.

And this was also the most correct order of strength in his mind.

Li Tianlan was strong.

But Deity did not think that he deserved the glory of the Li family’s past.

He could not win over Wang Shengxiao and Song Ci.

As for Gu Hanshan…

Deity had no prejudice against Gu Hanshan. He just rightly thought that all the people in Kunlun City were worthless clowns. He was too lazy to target anyone. To put it simply, he just did not care about them.

The aura of Heavenly King Heart Gu Hanshan was indeed dazzling enough. But from Deity’s point of view, he was not even as good as Jiang Shangyu, whose foundation was inferior.

Dongcheng Rushi was in a special state.

From this point of view, the only outstanding young person in Zhongzhou State that he could cultivate was Jiang Shangyu.

Regardless of whether he would be used in the future against Li Tianlan or Dijiang and Wang Shengxiao, Jiang Shangyu seemed to be somewhat incompetent.

His talent was outstanding enough, but in Martial Arts, pure talent and physique did not determine everything.

Jiang Shangyu was not as good as Wang Shengxiao now. The most important thing was that the Jiang family had not accumulated the nearly perfect martial arts heritage and martial arts concept that had been accumulated for hundreds of years.

The room was silent.

In the somewhat depressed atmosphere, Jiang Shangyu blinked, chuckled, and said in doubt, “Your Majesty?”

“Would you like to learn swords with me?” Deity said suddenly.

The Immortality Handprint of the Purgatory of Heaven Capital was well-known in the Dark World. Everyone knew that Deity’s weapon was a huge and exaggerated sickle of death.

However, whether it was Immortality Handprint or Death Sickle, what finally erupted was the sword intent.

Only sword intent.

It had been based on the 24 Moves of Sword of the Li family and became a more subtle sword intent.

It was Deity’s Invincible Realm path.

Jiang Shangyu froze suddenly. A little consternation appeared on his face and he eventually became ecstatic.

“Your Majesty…”

His voice was shaking a little.

Before coming here today, he never thought that he would have such an opportunity. He had his own Invincible Realm path. If he had Deity’s teaching…

“You are not willing?” Deity asked with a smile.

“Yes! I am willing!”

Jiang Shangyu’s face trembled. He seemed not to know what he should say, but he bowed deeply.

“Do you know why I chose you?”

Deity looked at Jiang Shangyu. His eyes were not soft, but with a kind of peace without fluctuation. “Not only because you are my only option at the moment, but also because you have ambitions. You are clear-headed and your family is clear-headed. The Jiang family has spent several generations to climb up. It is not easy to climb up to this status from generation to generation. You know what your status means today, and you understand the consequences of losing it in your heart. This is the awe in your heart. So you ask for something, but you don’t ask too much. In my opinion, that’s safe.

“I like safe people.

“So… again, I look forward to your future in the Purgatory of Heaven Capital.”

Jiang Shangyu bowed deeply and did not stand up straight again for a long time.

Deity reached out his hand.

There was a sword intent in the air.

The sword intent was condensed and thick, and the air in the whole room seemed to freeze.

Deity’s fingers were sliding in the air.

In the transparent air, a looming line was drawn by the sword intent.

Branding handwriting and images in the void with sword intent was by no means an ordinary method of the Invincible Realm.

When Jiang Shangyu looked up, Deity had carved a giant tree in the air with the sword intent.

The giant branches were leafy and transparent, but they were faintly flashing in the air and the Sword Energy was extremely dazzling.

“Martial Arts is a tree in my eyes.”

Decisively and calmly, Deity gave Jiang Shangyu the first lesson.

“The root of the tree is the starting point and root of Martial Arts. The deeper the root of the tree is below the ground, the larger the tree will be.

“The Four Realms of Martial Arts are the trunk—the Qi-controlling Realm, the Ice-condensing Realm, the Fire-flaming Realm, the Thunder-shocking Realm. The richer the accumulation is, the thicker the trunk is. It can affect the final achievement to a certain extent.”

Deity looked at the leafy tree in the air. “The tree canopy is above the trunk. Martial Arts is so vast, as is this tree. So the canopy is lush. Thousands of branches form the canopy. The canopy is the road in my heart and each branch is a different road.

“Look at this tree.”

The tone of Deity was focused and calm. “The trunk is the Four Realms of Martial Arts. These different branches represent different heights—the Thunder-shocking Realm, the peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm, the Half-step Invincible Realm. They are the inadequate Invincible Realm, ordinary Invincible Realm, slightly worse Invincible Realm, stronger Invincible Realm, normal Invincible Realm, strong Invincible Realm, the peak of the Invincible Realm…

“The road is chosen by one.”

Deity said, “Each branch that forms the canopy of the tree grows upwards at the beginning. For a variety of reasons, in the end, the branches will hang down. Only a small part can always be upward. This is a correct road. So in the Dark World, for the vast majority of those in the Half-step Invincible Realm, it is impossible to enter the real Invincible Realm.

“The road has a length, as do the branches. The height that the branches finally reach also means the strength after entering the domain of the Invincible Realm.

“Here.”

Deity reached out a finger to point at it.

He pointed to the highest point in the tree. Jiang Shangyu followed his fingers to look over and did not know whether he was pointing at the leaves or branches. But it was indeed the highest point.

“There is a saying of the Chosen One in the Dark World. The Chosen One stands at the highest position and has absolute combat capability and dominance. If the Chosen One really exists, this is the Chosen One’s position.”

He waved his hand.

The air fluctuated silently.

The lush canopy began to disappear in large swaths.

The drooping branches were gone and the horizontally growing branches were disappearing. The upward but not high enough branches were also disappearing.

Suddenly, only a few of the highest branches were flickering in the air.

Deity looked at the image he made.

His eyes were a little complicated.

Jiang Shangyu counted the branches.

The branches were well counted.

Four.

Two had the highest positions, and it was difficult to distinguish them.

The other two had a gap in height. But it was very small. They were also in the position closest to the highest.

“I don’t know much about Martial Arts. I know the 24 Moves of Sword a little. Because of the relationship between the Li family and the Wang family of Beihai, I know the Six Paths of Reincarnation a little.”

Deity pointed to the lowest of the four branches and said calmly, “If the Chosen One is at the top, then I should be in this position. Starting from the root of the tree and going all the way up, this is my path, and it is my current location.”

The branch representing his path was really high.

The two flush branches in the highest positions were already close.

They were closer to another branch.

Jiang Shangyu seemed to feel a little surprised. He looked at another branch.

That branch was a little higher than Deity’s, and a little lower than the two tallest branches.

“That is?” he asked.

“That’s Wang Tianzong’s position.”

Deity calmly said, “Our paths are different. My path is reality and darkness. Wang Tianzong’s path is illusion and light. The two paths are not to be judged. I could reach Wang Tianzong’s height without getting injured.”

What he said was not absolute authority, but he had more credibility than most people.

Jiang Shangyu stared at several branches.

His eyes fell on the top two branches, thinking of Deity’s words in his mind.

Real night.

Unreal day.

They were extremely pure.

So their sword intents were so pure enough to tear everything apart.

Wang Tianzong.

Deity.

This was already the peak of the age of the Dark World.

What was the so-called Chosen One?

“If the top two branches are the Chosen Ones… can the Chosen Ones go shoulder to shoulder?” Jiang Shangyu asked.

“That’s not the Chosen One. It’s just where the Chosen One should exist. That’s the end of Martial Arts. I thought I couldn’t get there, so I chose my current path. Wang Tianzong thought he couldn’t get there, so he chose his own path. You are referring to two different but similar roads to the Chosen One.”

“What kind of road?” Jiang Shangyu asked seriously.

“You’ve seen it.”

Deity said, “In the final maneuver, there is already a prototype of the Chosen One road in the Forever Silent World. Li Tianlan’s sword intent now represents a road to the Chosen One. Reality and Illusion.”

The path of Deity was real darkness.

Wang Tianzong’s path was illusion and light.

The combination of reality and illusion was the real path of the Chosen One.

Jiang Shangyu suddenly became silent.

He already knew the other path, and he smiled bitterly.

After a few moments of silence, he still asked, “Besides Li Tianlan’s road… is there another road to the Chosen One?”

“It is naturally darkness and light.”

Deity calmly said, “It’s also day and night.”

…

The heavy rain passed late at night and fell in the early morning.

The rain was slightly weaker.

Deity had been gone for a long time.

Jiang Shangyu sat in the position where Deity had sat all night and calmly looked up at the tree still in the air.

The sword intent left by Deity was very dim.

That tree had also faded a lot.

Jiang Shangyu watched quietly. His eyes were obscure, with one or countless emotions that were difficult to understand.

Illusion and light.

Reality and darkness.

They all could lead to the strongest peak of the Invincible Realm.

Illusion and reality.

Day and night.

They were the roads to the Chosen One.

Jiang Shangyu closed his eyes silently.

In his mind, Li Tianlan’s sword reappeared during the final maneuver.

The sword was not a sword.

It was just a leaf.

But a leaf was also a sword.

Everything was a sword.

That green leaf wandered in the domain of the void, and the world was quiet, shrinking and falling into silence.

Mountains and rivers, lakes and seas, cities, high-rise buildings—everything seemed to completely disappear and become false and void.

That green leaf fluttered, not quickly or slowly. It smashed the Ninth Secluded Impasse of Gu Hanshan, the sword light of Wang Shengxiao and Song Ci, and smashed his Miles of Starry Sky.

The sword intent was still condensed and its truth seemed to overwhelm everyone’s will.

Reality and illusion.

Reality and illusion!!!

Jiang Shangyu suddenly opened his eyes.

Cold sweat was seeping from his forehead.

Cold sweat ran down his face and landed on his clothes.

Jiang Shangyu suddenly laughed.

His eyes were twisted and his face was grim. He sadly smiled in despair.

The tree in the air was still flashing.

No one knew that Jiang Shangyu was not desperate because of Li Tianlan’s sword.

It was because of something else.

Something else!!!

He laughed for a long time and his whole person bent down on the sofa. He finally knelt down on his knees, and could not stand up.

It took him a long time to stand up slowly, leaning against the wall.

His finger touched a button on the wall.

A soft piece of music rang out and revolved around the room.

Jiang Shangyu sat back on the sofa again, reached out, and poured himself a glass of wine, then drank it silently.

The wine was good wine.

But it tasted bad.

He did not like red wine and he never liked it.

The tree in the air disappeared.

Jiang Shangyu drank his wine with big mouthfuls. His eyes were a little blurred, as if he was drunk.

But his heart calmed down.

He saw the end of Martial Arts that Deity had shown him, saw the path of Deity, and even got the sword intent of Deity.

He needed them very much.

But after all, it was not his.

He had his own path.

Jiang Shangyu took a deep breath, thinking of Tiannan.

He followed Deity to learn the sword.

Deity was his teacher.

His teacher asked him to go to Tiannan, perhaps to guard against Dijiang, or to guard against Li Tianlan.

But until Deity left, he never told Deity about his cooperation with Li Tianlan.

Jiang Shangyu finished drinking red wine, lying on the sofa, staring at the ceiling with a dull look.

He needed the Martial Arts of Deity.

But he really did not like letting Deity be his own teacher.

He also did not like the swords of the Li family and the Wang family of Beihai.

If he was born in the same age as Deity, he firmly believed that he now would have the capital to fight against Deity.

“Hehe…”

Jiang Shangyu’s eyes were dull, and he laughed again. Whether it was a sneer or drunken laughter, his drunk murmur was suppressed by the dim and soft music.

“I hate heaven for taking 20 of my years…”

…

On Mount Dibing…

The light rain continued.

Beihai Province was near the sea. It was rainy and snowy. But it seldom had torrential rain. It often had light, non-stop rain.

The light rain started a few days ago, and it was sometimes quick and sometimes slow. But it continued on through several nights and mornings. According to the Meteorological Observatory, it seemed that it would go on until tomorrow night.

In the rainy sky that was not fully lit in the early morning, a black Mercedes-Benz slowly entered the top of Mount Dibing after passing several stops.

The Mercedes-Benz went directly to Emperor Hall where Wang Tianzong lived on weekdays.

At five o’clock in the morning…

At this time, Wang Tianzong should have not gotten up yet.

The Mercedes’ door was opened.

Xuan Ming, the chief of the Wang family of Beihai intelligence who had disappeared for a period of time on Mount Dibing, pushed the door and got out of the car with a tired look.

At the same time, a middle-aged man about 50 years old followed him to get out of the car.

The middle-aged man was slightly fat and wore a pair of glasses. He was well-dressed and looked like a successful person who had achieved fame.

But at this time, he stood beside Xuan Ming and looked at the bustling Mount Dibing nearby. He seemed a little timid, so that his whole person was a little out of step with the atmosphere on Mount Dibing.

Xuan Ming did not care about these things.

He looked at the closed Emperor Hall, and hesitated. He stepped forward and pressed the doorbell, and at the same time raised his voice to say, “Your Majesty, Xuan Ming is here to visit you.”

His voice was clear and powerful. It passed through the gate, ringing in Emperor Hall.

Emperor Hall was silent for a moment, then the bedroom on the second floor was lit up with light.

“What’s up?”

Wang Tianzong’s steady voice sounded.

“I… found something, and need Your Majesty to look at it immediately.”

Xuan Ming’s look was strange. When he thought of the news, his eyes were like he had seen a ghost. “It’s news about Qin Weibai.”

Wang Tianzong had asked him to investigate Qin Weibai at all costs a few days ago.

Xuan Ming now had the news.

This was not fast.

But the subject of the investigation was the mysterious Qin Weibai.

So the speed of getting news was not too slow.

But Xuan Ming was not sure if his investigation was smooth.

With the outcome of this investigation, he had received the strangest and weirdest information of his life.

Xuan Ming himself could not even explain it.

But he had to send these to Wang Tianzong immediately.

The door of Emperor Hall was opened slowly.

Wang Tianzong, still wearing pajamas, appeared at the door and looked calm.

He looked at Xuan Ming, who was haggard with bloodshot eyes. His eyes softened slightly and he nodded.

“Who is this?”

He looked at the middle-aged man behind Xuan Ming with some doubts.

“This is a very important figure in Qin Weibai’s investigation,” Xuan Ming said.

Wang Tianzong let out a groan and waved his hand. “Come in and talk.”

Xuan Ming nodded and looked back at the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man clung to a bag in his hand.

Xuan Ming looked at the bag.

Suddenly, that weird feeling reappeared in his mind.

A refreshing morning breeze blew in front of Emperor Hall.

Xuan Ming’s body shivered and he suddenly felt that the midsummer morning was cold.
