The Lone Walker

Chapter 12: The Iron Courage God Hou Zhu Ignores

Changbai Mountain Tianchi Lake is pure and magnificent. In the afternoon, the sun shines and the lake is sparkling. Walking along the lake, you can see the clear lake water and the waterfall complement each other. Climbing to the top and looking down, Tianchi Lake is vast and tranquil, and complements the peaks. This scene is intoxicating and makes you appreciate the beauty of nature.

Chen Fan flew for an hour and a half before he reached Tianchi from Shuiyue Temple. He immediately jumped into the water without hesitation, looking for the cave at the bottom of the lake that Gu Santong had mentioned. After a while, he saw bubbles coming out of a giant rock at the bottom of the lake.

Looking closely, he saw hot air gushing out, isolating the water vapor. Chen Fan performed the Shaolin Flower-Picking Finger Technique as in the original book, blocking the hot steam for a moment. In order to prevent the Jinshan Mountain from flooding, he quickly entered the cave.

The cave was covered with snow and was freezing cold. A coffin was placed on a high platform. The woman inside could be seen through the ice coffin. Chen Fan put the coffin into the Xuantian Tower with a thought and then entered himself.

……

On the other hand, the situation at Hulong Villa was quite different.

"Report, Your Majesty, Iron Claw Flying Eagle has sent a message that a mysterious man caused a disturbance in the East Factory today. He used the legendary sword-wielding technique to force Cao Zhengchun to stop, and then he reappeared and the two of them had a pleasant conversation."

"And Cao Zhengchun went to the palace treasury and took away half of the medicinal herbs and treasures such as the Tianshan Snow Lotus. He also gave the Jinyiwei commander's token to this person, and that person went to the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison. Now the ninth floor of the Heavenly Prison is a sea of ​​fire..." An ordinary spy from the Huolong Villa reported to Zhu Wusi in detail.

"Oh, have you found out the origin of that person?" Zhu Wusi said lightly.

He had absolute confidence in his intelligence network and believed that no one could escape his eyes and ears, so he was not worried. He just felt a little sad that Gu Santong was dead after all, and he would feel a little reluctant if he killed him.

After all, it was Gu Santong who obtained the martial arts secrets of Tianchi Weird Hero together with him. The two of them had a close personal relationship and were considered brothers from the same school. He only designed to harm him because of Su Xin, so he naturally felt guilty.

"This... I am incompetent. I only found out that this person first appeared in the gambling house a few days ago to help a gangster pay off his gambling debts. He appeared again today... There is no record of his previous experience."

"You useless piece of shit! Check it for me. I don't believe that this man fell from the sky." Zhu Wusi was a little angry and a little jealous of this man's sword-wielding skills. After all, this man single-handedly broke into the East Factory and forced Cao Zhengchun to bow his head, and was able to enter the Heavenly Prison and kill Gu Santong. Even he couldn't do it.

If he could absorb this person's skills, he would be truly invincible. The appearance of Chen Fan also made Zhu Wusi a little worried. After all, no one would like things to happen that are beyond their control. He took out a pen and ink and started to write, but the words looked murderous no matter how he looked at them...

……

"Stop, who are you?"

"I am a subordinate of Lord Yang Yuxuan from the Ministry of War. I want to see Lord Tiedan Shenhou and bring you a message from Lord Yang."

"Lord Yang was beheaded at the Meridian Gate yesterday. How can there be any oral information?"

"Lord Yang was brutally murdered by Cao Zhengchun of the Eastern Factory. He left me a will that took me two days to get here after four fast horses died of exhaustion."

"The Divine Marquis does not see guests."

"This matter is extremely urgent. Please pass it on."

At this time, the sound coming from the door attracted Zhu Wusi's attention. After hearing it clearly, he smiled slightly and immediately used his inner strength to speak: "Lord Yang was loyal and brave, but he died tragically at the hands of a traitor. He has a last word to send to me. Zhu Wusi should listen to it. Please come in, General."

"I am Jiang Wentai, and I pay my respects to the Lord of God."

Zhu Wusi slowly raised his head to look at him, and then a note with Jiang Wentai's name on it was passed out from under the chair. Suddenly, the entire intelligence system was running at full capacity, and in a short while, Jiang Wentai's background was found out and passed back to Zhu Wusi.

Zhu Wusi took a look, stood up and slowly walked towards Jiang Wentai and responded: "Cao Zhengchun has taken control of the East Factory and the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and has also blocked the emperor's way of speaking. Even though I am a member of the royal family, it is extremely difficult for me to see the emperor. I know that Lord Yang has been framed, and I want to rescue him, but it is too late."

"Lord Yang wrote a secret letter of remonstration to the Emperor, but it was intercepted by Cao Zhengchun. The eunuch Cao Zhengchun falsely accused Lord Yang of colluding with foreigners and selling out his country, and tortured him severely. When he was beheaded on the execution ground that day, Lord Yang had actually already died." Jiang Wentai looked bitter and resentful, and with tears in his eyes he told Zhu Wusi about his grievances.

"I won't let Lord Yang die in vain"

"The only people in the world who can go against Cao Zhengchun are you, the Divine Marquis of Hulong Villa, and your secret spies. I beg you, the Divine Marquis, to avenge Lord Yang. This is the blood letter left by Lord Yang," Jiang Wentai continued to cry and took out a piece of blood-stained white cloth from his arms.

……

When Zhu Wusi turned around, he saw Jiang Wentai, who was originally kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up and pressed his palms hard on Zhu Wusi's chest.

"Zhu Wusi, the governor asked me to invite you to accompany Yang Yuxuan." Jiang Wentai saw that he had succeeded, and then said viciously to Zhu Wusi.

"Heart-Breaking Palm, you are indeed not Jiang Wentai, you are Cao Zhengchun's man." Zhu Wusi used the internal force of the suction technique to tightly absorb Jiang Wentai's palms. Jiang Wentai was shocked when he saw this. Zhu Wusi's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and his protective energy fiercely bounced Jiang Wentai away.

Jiang Wentai fell to the ground spitting blood, and got up with difficulty and said: "You have taken precautions."

Zhu Wusi said calmly, "The most powerful thing about Hulong Villa is not martial arts, but intelligence and strategy. I have files here for each department, each garrison, and officers above the rank of captain."

Then he threw a piece of paper towards Jiang Wentai, on which was clearly drawn Jiang Wentai's appearance, and the words "Jiang Wentai, suffers from fox disease, has body odor, is nauseating, and has a voice like a loud bell" were written.

"Cao Zhengchun underestimated me too much. Lord Yang and I have a very close personal relationship. I knew that once he was killed, Cao Zhengchun would find an opportunity to kill me." Zhu Wusi said confidently.

"Well, you old fox,"

"Lord Yang's military token is what Cao Zhengchun has always wanted to take. However, he couldn't find it even after he ransacked Lord Yang's house. That's because the military token is already on the way to the border and given to General Zhou, Lord Yang's subordinate." Zhu Wusi continued.

"Haha, the governor has already sent people to capture Yang Yuxuan's children," Jiang Wentai said in a timid tone, but in fact he was almost out of breath and unable to move.

"How could I, Tiedan Shenhou, not think of what Cao thief has thought of?" Zhu Wusi said with a slight smile and contempt.

At this time Jiang Wentai jumped with all his might, trying to escape, but the result went against his will. Zhu Wushi's energy-absorbing technique had reached perfection. Even if Jiang Wentai was intact, he would not be able to escape, not to mention that he was already seriously injured.

Zhu Wusi bent his five fingers, and his internal force gushed out. The terrifying suction force rushed towards Jiang Wentai, and then Jiang Wentai fell back and was sucked on the forehead. In the blink of an eye, he was reduced to ashes, and there was no body left, only the torn clothes. Proof that someone had been here before.

With Zhu Wusi's current status, he doesn't dare to use the power-absorbing technique to absorb other people's internal energy. The internal energy of 108 masters from various major sects created the Zhu Wusi of today. Now that he is in a high position, he doesn't do such things very often...
