Chapter 788: The Jade and the Scheme
Chong Buer's reminder before leaving was well-intentioned, but it added another worry to Zhou You.

The other party's words were not groundless. Beijing is so big that there are all kinds of things. It is not surprising that there are a few perverts who like to collect human skin.

Moreover, based on Chong Buer's identity and status, the big shots he came into contact with were, well, at least at the level of Zhou Nanwang.

Zhou You decided that after arriving in Beijing, he would try his best to hide the painting of the hungry tiger.

As for everyone present, they were all his personal guards, so keeping the secret was just a matter of his word.

"In addition to the Hungry Tiger Picture, you also have the Grandmaster's Mark which must be kept secret."

Before officially entering the capital, Zhou Nanwang gave special instructions to Zhou You and his guards.

It was only now that Zhou You realized that the Lord of the Mansion had activated the Grandmaster's mark on him that day. Afterwards, during the extra days Zhou Nanwang stayed there, he was busy with one thing: keeping his mouth shut.

He paid a visit to the top leaders of Beixuanzhu, and together they sealed everyone's memories of that day and completely buried the Grandmaster's mark.

I heard that there are also people in Dijing who have the Grandmaster's mark. Are they afraid that Zhou You will clash with them?

In response to this, Zhou Nanwang did not reveal the truth in public, but told it to Zhou You in private.

"The eighth gentleman of Fengjun, who comprehended the Grandmaster's Mark on his own when he first entered Qiangwu, is a child of destiny."

"The current feudal lord is old, and his sons are fighting for the position of crown prince, hoping to become the successor to the feudal lord."

"The first few gentlemen are young and strong, but they are afraid of the unlimited potential of the Eighth Gentleman and try to wipe him out. The forces behind the Eighth Gentleman want to find a strong warrior of the same age who also has the mark of a master to serve as a substitute."

When Zhou You heard this, he thought to himself, I have lost the battle for the throne among the princes. Well, here comes the problem...

He raised his hand and asked, "Who does our family support?"

As soon as I asked this question, I felt stupid. How could a noble family have a clear support target? It should have diversified investments.

As expected, Zhou Nanwang replied, "My group supports the Eight Gentlemen."

No wonder Zhou Nanwang regarded Zhou You as a treasure, fearing that other forces in the same camp would ask Zhou You to serve as a substitute, and specifically instructed him not to leak the news that he had the Grandmaster's mark.

Alas, the situation in Dijing is complicated and cruel.

Originally, Zhou You had the mark of a Grandmaster and was sure to become a Grandmaster. However, when he arrived in Dijing, against the backdrop of the struggle for succession among the sons of the feudal lords, the future Grandmaster was no longer valuable and was only worth being a substitute.

After bidding farewell to Chong Buer, the ship hung the Zhou family's logo before entering Dijing and entered Dijing unimpeded.

As mentioned before, Dijing is divided into two prefectures, the left and the right, and its size is comparable to that of a large state. More than half of the top warriors in the world gather here.

"It would be great if we could open a martial arts school in Dijing?"

Qi Qingdi had never been to Dijing, and looking at the magnificent scene before him, he couldn't help but sigh.

Zhu Ruoxuan, who was standing by, chuckled and said, "The only ones who can gain a foothold in Dijing are at least sects. Small martial arts schools don't have much chance of survival!"

It turns out that Dijing is much higher than Fucheng, and those who are qualified to teach disciples are at least strong level.

Ordinary martial artists are just hard-working workers, unlike those in small and medium-sized cities who can open martial arts schools and own huge industries.

As they got off the boat at the dock and stepped onto the land of Dijing, everyone noticed something different.

For martial artists such as Qi Qingdi, Cao Mo'ang and Jian Xiaocao, the ground beneath their feet was extremely hard, as if they were standing on a steel plate.

With their strength, they could easily crush even the steamed and compacted soil, but the hardness of the land was beyond their imagination.

A high-level martial artist's full-strength punch would only leave a shallow fist mark on the surface of the landmark. Zhou You also noticed this situation. As a strong martial artist, his damage to the surrounding environment was also suppressed to an extreme level, which was equivalent to weakening a major realm.

In addition to the land, the surrounding city walls and buildings were also strengthened.

The destructive power caused by his full-strength attack is equivalent to the level of martial artists in the outside world.

"why is that?"

Zhou Nanwang was used to his surprise and laughed, "Silly boy, where do you think this place is? Dijing."

Dijing is the only city in the world built by a Martial Saint. The original Martial Saint created the geographical concept of "Dijing" and personally built the prototype of Dijing.

Later, the Martial Saints divided the city into two prefectures, enriched the details of Dijing, expanded the area, and optimized it generation after generation, leading to the Dijing of today.

This is a city that will never fall, and it is also a holy place in the minds of warriors.

There has always been a saying that "If you haven't been to Dijing, you are not a hero", and many warriors are willing to spend all their money to see Dijing with their own eyes.

Since Dijing is the great creation of the Martial Saint, all the laws on this land are made by the Martial Saint, which suppress the strength of warriors to a level lower than that of the outside world.

Even a master like Zhou Nanwang, who is invincible in the outside world, can only cause limited damage when he arrives in Dijing.

The land they stepped on belonged to Zuofu, which was one of the two prefectures of "Left Noble and Right Rich".

The Zhou family of Zuofu is one of the most prominent and prestigious families in Dijing, and is one of the top families in the world.

After Zhou Youye and his companions got off the boat, they found themselves waiting in a long queue of carriages. Umbrellas covered the streets like clouds, making it look like a canopy of trees. Thousands of servants knelt on the ground to welcome their master.

A few streets away, someone heard the thunderous shout and frowned, "Which kid from the Zhou family has returned to Beijing? I'm going to cause trouble for him."

It turned out to be Mu Rubai, the eldest son of the Mu family, who was also a member of the famous family of Zuofu.

Mu Rubi was about to speak in unison but was stopped, "Don't make trouble, the one returning home today is Zhou Nanwang, the Grandmaster of the Zhou family."

"Zhou Nanwang, it's him!"

When he heard it was the Grandmaster, he sighed and gave up the idea of ​​provoking trouble.

Even in the two prefectures of Di and Jing, the Grandmaster is the best among the people, not to mention that Zhou Nanwang is the strongest person who has the greatest hope of breaking through to the Di Sect.

Rumor has it that the Lord of Feng also admired Zhou Nanwang very much and promised that once he was promoted to Dizong, he could be appointed as the governor of a state.

Given his status and position in the family, it wouldn't matter if he had conflicts with members of the Zhou family, even if it was a fight between strong men. But if he was unlucky enough to run into a master, haha, he could only complain about his bad luck even when he died.

"Zhou Nanwang must be coming back from the north!"

"Yes, I heard that he seemed to have taken his son to Beixuanzhou to marry the daughter of Zhenbei Ge's family."

"Oh, this method is to tie the six northern states to the eight gentlemen through marriage."

"Hehe, we don't need to care about the Mu family. The people of the Zhou family's Dongzong may not allow this marriage to be successful. How did Zhou Nanwang's son become a waste? Everyone knows it."

Mu Rubi laughed a few times and continued to invite the other party to drink. "Brother Wu, you are a popular person around the Five Gentlemen. From now on, you and I will work together to support the dragon and protect him. You should say a few good words for me."

Sitting in front of him was the handsome Wu Luoye, who had obvious mixed-race features. He smiled and said, "Sure, sure!"

The aura and prospects of this mixed-blood wizard now are at the sixth level of powerful martial arts.
