Linghu Chong ultimately didn't ask any further questions.

He simply cupped his hands slightly and said, "Thank you, Your Highness. However, there is something I do not understand."

"But it doesn't matter."

"Does the young master truly intend to eradicate the roots of the martial arts world in the Ming Dynasty?" Linghu Chong's tone was somewhat cold.

The great battle between Tianmen and the Demon God Sect is about to break out!

All that's left is for the two groups to clash.

At that time, rivers of blood will flow and corpses will litter the fields!

"Hehe, how about this, you answer a few questions for me first?" Xu Fengnian raised an eyebrow.

Linghu Chong thought for a moment and said, "Okay."

"Hmm, one day, Young Master Linghu went to a tavern for drinks. When he was quite drunk, the waiter, who didn't know martial arts, verbally insulted him. What should you do?"

"Of course we'll curse back!" Linghu Chong said matter-of-factly.

"Hmm, was it him and his vile words that insulted your parents, your master and mistress, and even your junior sister?" Xu Fengnian asked.

"I'll cut out his tongue!" A murderous glint flashed in Linghu Chong's eyes!

"Why do you?"

"How dare he insult my dearest family!"

"Wrong." Xu Feng chuckled. "It's because you possess extremely profound martial arts skills. Verbal insults are one thing; ordinary people might fight each other, but you, Young Hero Linghu, went and cut out someone's tongue. Without your unparalleled martial arts skills, where would you get the ability to do that? Without your unparalleled martial arts skills, do you dare to disregard the laws of the Ming Dynasty? Cutting out someone's tongue isn't illegal?"

"This is what it means for a knight to break the law with his martial arts. Possessing a sharp weapon makes one's killing intent arise, and the same goes for possessing extraordinary skills."

"You're right. I, the young master, intend to sever the roots of the martial arts world in the Ming Dynasty. I intend for many years to come when there will be few martial arts masters in the world. Young Master Linghu, ask yourself honestly, from a long-term perspective, have I done anything wrong?"

"this..."

Linghu Chong was startled upon hearing this!

Xu Fengnian's probing question truly stunned him!

Upon closer reflection, it is indeed true!

If no one knows martial arts, who would dare to defy the law?

With laws and regulations in place, the world has order!

“What the young master says makes sense.” Linghu Chong shook his head and sighed, “However, for the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty to be destroyed as a result is... is far too cruel!”

"Young Master Linghu, you must know that without destruction there can be no construction. Without some extraordinary means, how can we restore order to this world? The destruction of the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world is cruel, but for the entire Ming Dynasty, it is a great thing."

"I believe you will understand this principle."

"Who is right and who is wrong is in the hearts of the people."

"Let future generations judge the merits and demerits."

His voice, appearance, and smile remain vivid in my memory.

But when I looked up again,

Xu Fengnian and Wu Xingyun have disappeared!

Only Linghu Chong was left standing there, bewildered in the wind!

"Merit and demerit, right and wrong, are judged by the hearts of the people..."

He muttered something to himself.

Linghu Chong's mind was in turmoil!

He had a vague idea of ​​what was going on.

The fall of the Ming Dynasty's martial arts world was not necessarily a bad thing!

But I just can't get over that hurdle in my heart!

a long time,

All that remained was a long sigh!

-

Daming Palace.

"Your Majesty, Xu Fengnian has stirred up chaos in the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty, and now he has gathered tens of thousands of disciples! His wolfish ambitions are blatantly obvious. Why, Your Majesty..."

Cao Zhengchun said anxiously!

A while ago.

He had just killed the royal advisor and the fake princess of Izumo.

However, the joy hadn't even worn off yet.

Then the Demon God Sect incident occurred!

And the surrender of the Song Dynasty, etc.

For a time,

Cao Zhengchun's fear of Xu Fengnian reached its peak!

"Why shouldn't I surrender?" Zhu Houzhao laughed. "Eunuch Cao, are you trying to say why I haven't surrendered Xu Fengnian yet?"

"No!" Cao Zhengchun was startled. "That's not what I meant..."

"Hmph!" Zhu Houzhao flicked his sleeve: "I have my own ideas. Since I dared to let Yunluo go out with Xu Fengnian, I am not afraid of him causing trouble!"

"The martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty should have been rectified long ago! There are too many martial arts masters who no longer respect the law! They kill and set fires on a whim! Letting Xu Fengnian put down their arrogance and extinguish their conceit is ultimately not a bad thing!"

Imperial power is supreme!

The most intolerable thing,

Those are the martial artists who use their skills to break the law!

Therefore, in Zhu Houzhao's view,

Does Xu Fengnian want to destroy the martial arts world of the Ming Dynasty?

That would be fantastic news!

He was overjoyed!

As for concerns?

Haha, Zhu Houzhao had nothing to worry about for a long time.

to be honest,

Broken jar, broken jar.

The reason he secretly supported Xu Fengnian was...

Let them do as they please.

They allowed her to use Princess Yunluo's royal name.

It is precisely because...

Zhu Houzhao also wanted to be like Duan Zhengchun and Zhu Wushi, and continue to be the 'King' of the Ming Dynasty!

Before Xu Fengnian arrived,

Zhu Houzhao chose to support Cao Zhengchun, even if it meant letting eunuchs rule! A do-or-die situation! A chance to rebuild after destruction!

But after Xu Fengnian arrived...

Zhu Houzhao has a new choice!

Rather than letting the imperial uncle seize the throne,

Rather than letting Cao Zhengchun, a eunuch, hold power,

Why not surrender to Xu Fengnian!

I will continue to be the 'King' of the Ming Dynasty!

The nominal 'King' of the Ming Dynasty could only still bear the surname Zhu!

only.

The time is not yet ripe.

Zhu Houzhao's 'submission' could not be carried out yet.

"Draft an imperial edict!" Zhu Houzhao said calmly, "Over the decades, the Dragon Guard Manor has collected countless intelligence reports. I intend to bring to justice those martial artists who have committed murder and other crimes but have remained at large! Shangguan Haitang shall be appointed Imperial Commissioner! Execution first, reporting later, this is a special imperial permission!"

what?

Upon hearing this, Cao Zhengchun was immediately startled!

Warriors who have killed people and committed crimes?

I've tried it.
