Bravely enter the heavens and become a god

Three months later, Emperor Zhenwu came to pick up Luo Ying. Emperor Lu Gui reluctantly handed Luo Ying's hand to Emperor Zhenwu, who took Luo Ying back with joy on his face.

In the following time, Zhenwu Emperor and Luo Ying worked side by side, carefully guiding Luo Ying in strict close combat training every day. In this close interaction, the feelings of the two quickly warmed up like the sunshine of spring, and the tacit understanding between them also quietly grew in every move.

Their figures interweave in the morning light and dusk, and every exchange and collision is like a spiritual exchange, which makes the emotions between them warm up quietly. In the close confrontation, they are not only like master and apprentice, but also like soulmates.

The eyes of the Great Emperor Zhenwu revealed his careful guidance and deep expectations for Luo Ying, and Luo Ying felt the encouragement and affirmation from the Great Emperor Zhenwu every time he punched and dodged. Their eyes met, and they could understand each other's intentions without words. That tacit understanding and emotion became stronger with day after day of training.

Under the careful guidance of the Great Emperor Zhenwu, Luo Ying gradually mastered the essence of close combat. She was able to dodge the punches and kicks of the Great Emperor Zhenwu quickly, and each dodge seemed to be at ease, like a lotus leaf gently passing through the water. And when she attacked with her backhand, it was even more swift and accurate, often achieving a surprise victory and successfully subduing the powerful Great Emperor Zhenwu.

Emperor Zhenwu praised happily, "You are really smart! You have mastered the fighting skills I taught you in such a short time."

Luo Ying smiled mischievously and said, "That's because Master taught me well!"

Zhenwu Emperor's eyes lit up, and he pulled Luo Ying into his arms, looked at her affectionately, and asked, "Then...how do you repay your teacher's kindness?"

Luo Ying was shocked by his affectionate eyes and stammered, "How... do you want me to... repay you?"

When the Great Emperor Zhenwu heard her words, he put his arms around her and whispered in her ear in a naughty and ambiguous tone: "How about giving yourself to me?"

Luo Ying was frightened by his words and wanted to run away in panic. Zhenwu Emperor pulled Luo Ying into his arms, put one arm around her waist, held her head with the other, looked at her affectionately and asked: "On the day of our wedding, if your master hadn't suddenly appeared and snatched the bride, would we have already been married?"

Luo Ying was so frightened by his question that he dared not even breathe.

The Great Emperor Zhenwu came close to Luo Ying's face, so close that they could feel each other's heartbeat and breathing. The Great Emperor Zhenwu looked at Luo Ying with emotion and said to her teasingly: "I miss the kiss you took the initiative to respond to me under the moonlight. Are you attracted to me too?"

Luo Ying blushed when she recalled their passionate kiss that day. Emperor Zhenwu stared at Luo Ying's bright and juicy lips and slowly approached her.

Suddenly, She Huaichuan barged in at an inopportune moment and shouted, "Oh no! Something terrible has happened!"

When I saw them hugging each other and about to kiss, I quickly turned my back and said in panic: "I... I didn't see anything... you guys continue."

Luo Ying hurriedly pushed the Great Emperor Zhenwu away. The Great Emperor Zhenwu coughed lightly and asked angrily, "What happened? You are in a hurry."

She Huaichuan turned around and looked at them and said, "News came from the capital that the eunuch Liu Jin, who was favored by Emperor Wuzong of the Ming Dynasty, interfered in state affairs. Dai Xian, the Imperial Censor of Nanjing, offended Liu Jin, and more than 40 people headed by Dai Xian were arrested. Wang Yangming, regardless of his low position, risked his head and wrote a letter to protest and condemn Liu Jin's style of behavior. How could he know that the emperor did not even read the memorials and left all state affairs to Liu Jin? Wasn't it like sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth for him to directly report Liu Jin? As a result, he was beaten with boards and was about to be demoted to the Longchang Post Station in Guizhou as a postmaster."

When Luo Ying heard that Lord Cangmo was being tortured, her legs went weak and she almost collapsed. The Great Emperor Zhenwu quickly caught Luo Ying and comforted her, "Don't worry, those people in the court will take my face into consideration and dare not take his life. It's just that Wang Yangming, I always remind him to be careful in his words and deeds when he is an official in the court. He has been doing his duty and keeping a low profile for so many years. How did he get into this trouble this time? Liu Jin is a ruthless villain. I usually have to be on guard against him."

Luo Ying asked nervously: "Then...what should we do? He has offended Liu Jin, how could he let my master go so easily?"

Emperor Zhenwu thought for a moment and comforted her, saying, "He is still safe in the court for now. They will not dare to harm him out of consideration for my face. I will arrange everything for the future, so you don't have to worry..."

Luo Ying nodded and asked curiously: "I have always wanted to ask, why can you become the general of the Ming Dynasty? Why does the emperor care about your face?"

The Great Emperor Zhenwu looked at Luo Ying proudly and said, "Do you know what my divine duty is?"

Luo Ying asked in confusion: "Isn't Xuanwu mainly in charge of longevity?"

The Great Emperor Zhenwu put one arm around her waist and hooked her nose with the other hand, saying affectionately: "In addition to being in charge of longevity, I am also the god of the country who controls the power of the world. When I appear, the emperor will come to greet me in person. Not to mention asking them for the title of the Great General of the Country!"

Luo Ying looked at him in surprise and said, "So you are so amazing!"

The Great Emperor Zhenwu raised his eyebrows and said proudly, "I was originally the prince of Shijingle Kingdom. When I grew up, I vowed to eliminate all the demons in the world and was unwilling to inherit the throne. Later, I practiced in Wudang Mountain for 42 years and ascended to heaven. After practicing for tens of millions of years, I became an immortal and was ordered by the Jade Emperor to guard the north and rule the Xuanwu position. My full name is the Great Emperor Zhenwu Dangmo, also known as the Emperor Xuantian, the True Lord Yousheng, and I have a longer name, Zhentian Zhenwu Lingying Yousheng Emperor, or the True Lord Zhenwu for short."

Luo Ying asked again: "Wow! These titles are so impressive! Why is the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty so respectful to you?"

The Great Emperor Zhenwu smiled proudly and said, "In the Ming Dynasty, the mortal world's belief in me reached its peak. In the early Ming Dynasty, when Prince of Yan Zhu Di launched the Jingnan Rebellion to seize the throne, I appeared and helped him many times. Therefore, after Zhu Di ascended the throne, he specially named me the North Pole Zhentian Zhenwu Xuantian Emperor and built my palaces and temples on a large scale in Wudang Mountain."

Luo Ying suddenly realized and said, "Oh! No wonder the emperor came to pick you up in person. It's just that Zhu Di is not a good person. He has a very bad character and stole the throne from his nephew."

Emperor Zhenwu pinched Luo Ying's face and said to her lovingly, "Haha... The imperial family is the most ruthless. The power struggle in the royal family has always been bloody. The competent one gets the throne, regardless of his character. As long as the people can live and work in peace and the country is prosperous and the people are safe, he is a good emperor."

Luo Ying smiled playfully and said, "That's right! Regardless of whether the emperor is good or bad, the one who can ultimately benefit the people of the world is a good emperor. Just like you in the Qin Dynasty, although you were scolded badly, your great achievements are witnessed by future generations. Merits and demerits are determined by people's hearts."

The Great Emperor Zhenwu smiled happily, pinched her nose, and said lovingly: "Back then, it was all thanks to your good guidance, Sister Ying!"

Luo Ying said happily: "It seems that now that my master has handed it over to you, I can go back and collect the ten great artifacts without any worries."

Emperor Zhenwu raised his eyebrows, smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry! I will make sure that my rival will not lose his hands."

Luo Ying looked at the Great Emperor Zhenwu, and thought of the times when he had silently protected her and devoted himself to her during the Ming Dynasty. She was moved and said to him, "Thank you, Brother Taixuan! You have been silently protecting me and devoting yourself to me for decades during the Ming Dynasty. Now you have to help me protect my Master for decades more."

The Great Emperor Zhenwu pulled Luo Ying into his arms, put one arm around her and held her head with the other hand, looking at her affectionately. Luo Ying felt that She Huaichuan was watching them from the side, and she was so embarrassed that she wanted to push him away.
