The Demon Queen of Divine Doctor is not to be trifled with

Chapter 730 Shipwreck

Quan Qinghua heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "It shouldn't be someone from Beijing. The Regent swore an oath in front of the Emperor that if he makes any unusual moves, you will be able to sense it immediately. Even if there is a problem with your spiritual power right now, this is known only to the heavens and the earth, and only to the few of us. The Regent doesn't know either, and he won't joke with his own life.

But if they are not from the capital, then they are from outside. Maybe some people don’t believe it and want to touch the emperor and the empress. I just don’t know how they know that the emperor and the empress have left Lin’an City. Thinking about it this way, the root cause may still be in the capital.”

Shi Liyuan rarely followed his words and analyzed them. He said, "There is not only one regent in the capital, and there are people outside who spy on the movements in the capital at any time and anywhere. I have lived for more than four hundred years. There are people who worship me, and naturally there are people who hate me. Spiritual cultivators are not true gods, so I cannot know everything in the world and see everyone in the world. There are many people and things that I only know exist when they are in front of me. So if you ask me where the crisis comes from, I don’t know either. Let’s take it one step at a time!"

The storyteller didn't know where he was going, and an argument broke out. Someone said loudly, "According to what you said, the people in the underworld also want to get the treasure, the imperial court also wants to get the treasure, and there are also some rebels with evil intentions who also want to rebel against the imperial court after getting the treasure. So who will win in the end? Which side will have the upper hand?"

Someone took over the conversation: "I think the rebels will win in nine out of ten cases. Now the court is led by a little emperor who has not even taken charge of the government. What can he do? The court cannot do without the regent, otherwise it will be a mess. But if the regent is the rebel, or if the rebels outside collude with the regent to rebel together, do you think the little emperor can deal with the regent? Hey, I just said it casually. We didn't say anything. We won't settle accounts when we get ashore." People laughed and said, "It's just talk. How can we ordinary people influence the overall situation of the world? There is only a small place on the boat, and there are only so many people. No one will say anything. Besides, everyone has participated in the discussion. Who do you think will expose who? In my opinion, if the regent is a normal person, he will not be willing to carry a sedan chair for a little emperor. This little emperor is not his son. No matter how well he carries the sedan chair, what good will it do him? It's better to do it yourself."

"The treasure must be in his hands, otherwise where would the money come from to rebel? Do you think rebellion doesn't cost money? Just raising those soldiers is enough to bankrupt several royal palaces. So I say, it is also very difficult for the regent to rebel, and he may even get himself involved. But we have been talking about something off the track. Didn't you ask before, who is more powerful among the three parties? In my opinion, the martial arts people are still more powerful. Of course, I haven't really seen many martial arts people, but I have heard that martial arts people come and go without a trace, and many martial arts skills are mastered by them, and they can even enter and exit the palace as if no one is there. You say, if such masters rush up in a swarm, the palace will not be able to resist. When the martial arts alliance rises up, I am afraid that it will be enough for the court to drink a pot."

"You are all wrong. If you ask me, these three parties are restraining each other. It's like fighting for the key to a treasure. Before I get it, I have to do everything I can to get it, and I have to do everything I can to prevent the other party from getting it. If this goes on, I'm afraid no one will get it for ten or eight years, and we will just be focusing on maintaining this balance."

"That makes sense. In fact, whether it is the court or the martial arts world, they are not completely opposed, and of course they are not alone. The relationship between them should be that the court hopes that the martial arts world is stable, and the martial arts world also hopes that the court is stable, because only when the other side is stable can they live in peace and go to court and compete. Except for the rebels, they are the ones who really hope that the other two sides are unstable, because only when the court and the martial arts world are turbulent, they have a chance."

"Yes, heroes emerge in troubled times. How many people are waiting to make great achievements and turn things around!"

"Then what do you think? Will the people in the Jianghu work for the imperial court? Wouldn't it be better if the two sides were combined into one?" The person who had previously led the storytelling also joined in. He said, "Why aren't they working for the imperial court? They are doing it now, but we just don't know about it. Otherwise, there wouldn't be the term 'recruitment'."

"Who do you think is the best martial artist in the world today? Is it the leader of the martial arts world?"

"What a bullshit leader of the martial arts world!" People who know a little about these things laughed in anger. "The masters are all trained by the court, how can they be wild ones? Haven't you heard of the absolute guards, the fine guards, and the first, second, and third-class dark guards? These are all thought up by the court and divided by the court itself. People in the martial arts world can't come up with such things."

"He's right. As for who is the best martial artist in the martial arts world today, haha, I heard that the best martial artist is the second young master of the Ye family in Beijing. Yes, that's the Ye family you just mentioned. Their second young master is the best martial artist."

"It's really extraordinary that a child of an aristocratic family can practice martial arts so well." "It's not surprising that their family has been loyal for generations and all of them are military commanders."

"From what you said, if there really is a treasure, then the key must eventually fall into the hands of the court. After all, the best masters in the martial arts world are all in the court. This is equivalent to the martial arts world and the court becoming one. Who can rob the court?"

"Who cares? Whoever wants it can get it. We ordinary people will definitely not get it anyway. Why bother so much?"

People were talking excitedly when someone suddenly asked, "Do you feel the ship shaking?"

The boat was indeed shaking violently. Ye Wenyan had already felt it. She even pulled Shi Liyuan to say, "It's not the waves, it's like there's something under the boat pushing it up. The boat is not small, and this is a river, not the sea, so there shouldn't be too big fish. So what do you think is pushing the boat up, if it's not a big fish?"

Shi Liyuan's focus was different from hers. He didn't care what was pushing the boat up, he only cared whether Ye Wenyan could swim or not. "I vaguely remember you saying that you were not good at swimming. In the past, because you had spiritual power to use magic, you would immediately use the water avoidance spell after entering the water, so you were never drowned. Ah Yan, can you still use your spiritual power now?"

Ye Wenyan shook his head, "Not at all."

Shi Liyuan's heart sank, but before he could completely cool down, something at the bottom of the boat suddenly exerted force and arched upwards, and the whole boat was lifted up by this force.

The people standing in the front were thrown to the back, and those standing at the side were thrown into the river. People who stayed in the room began to shout, and soon the freezing river water poured into the boat. At this time, someone said, "I just paid for tomorrow morning's meal, and I haven't eaten yet. The boat can't just capsize like this, right?"

The most taboo word when sailing is "flip". Even when turning a fish over, you cannot say "turn over", you have to say "slide over".

The man's words aroused the dissatisfaction of the captain, who immediately started to curse at him. Unfortunately, cursing was useless, and what was coming was still coming. The boat finally lost its balance under the violent shaking and capsized directly, throwing everyone on the boat into the river.

Shi Liyuan held Ye Wenyan tightly, and pulled her up as soon as she entered the water. His movements were fast enough, and Ye Wenyan still drank a mouthful of water. The water was so cold that her teeth almost fell out, but at the moment her head sank into the water, she saw many men in black at the bottom of the water, besieging them.

"Sure enough, they are coming for us." She grabbed Shi Liyuan and spit out water while saying, "The river is too cold. I am trying to hold on. The other party has been in the water for a long time and is obviously trained to withstand the cold. We are at a disadvantage. We have to find a way to at least prevent the innocent people on the boat from being implicated by us. With this water temperature, I am afraid that if it is a little later, several people will be frozen to death."

Shi Liyuan also knew that the situation was critical. He even tried to use his spiritual power, but still couldn't do anything. So he could only shout to his followers: "Save people!"

Ji Duo and the others immediately took action upon hearing the order. Ye Wenyan saw Quan Qinghua protecting Feng Zhaolian, and then saw that Feng Zhaolian seemed to be very good at swimming, so he was relieved. Feng Zhaolian was forbidden to freeze, so he would not be frozen to death, so Quan Qinghua could play a greater role.

Sure enough, Quan Qinghua let go of Feng Zhaolian and sank into the water. When he emerged again, the river water was blood-red and the mechanical fan in his hand was fully open.

"Shi Liyuan, you save people and I will kill the enemies!" She made the decision and gave Shi Liyuan a push.

He was worried, "How can you kill the enemy when you are so weak in water?"

"Although I am not a good swimmer, I won't drown immediately. I can still come out after sinking in the water for a while, but I can't swim far. This is an emergency and I can't think about so many things now. Don't worry, I won't die. But if others die, it will be our fault." After she said that, she sank under the water, and just then a man in black came up to her with a dagger in his hand.

She defeated the man in black in a few moves and snatched the dagger into her hand, making it her own weapon. Then she popped her head out to catch her breath.

Seeing that she was indeed fine and there was no need to worry about her martial arts, Shi Liyuan nodded and went to rescue the people who fell into the water.

Under the water, there seemed to be more and more men in black. Quan Qinghua's mechanical fan fired countless hidden weapons, and every one of them hit the target. However, he still could not repel the endless number of men in black.

Ye Wenyan's dagger killed the enemies one by one, almost crushing them, but he still couldn't kill them all.

Ji Duo, Ji Rong and Tian Ya were also fighting, saving people at the same time. The freezing cold river water had already caused many people to lose consciousness as soon as they entered the water. The men in black killed anyone they saw, and many innocent people had died.

Ye Wenyan felt that something was not right...
