Living forever in the deep palace

In the library, Su Chen was practicing a set of boxing techniques, testing his current level in the Muscle and Bone Realm.

boom!

Like steel and iron, Su Chen's muscles were tensed and burst out with rolling waves of air, blowing up the black eunuch robe on his body.

Su Chen did not wear the red robe bestowed by Emperor Jianwu on the manager of the library. Instead, he even took off his green eunuch robe and hung it high.

The world's martial arts rankings, with their fame and status, secretly instigated major sects in the martial arts world, and even top-tier masters, to become enemies and fight with each other. This was no small matter and would inevitably lead to fatal disasters.

But Su Chen did not regret it.

Because he also didn't like these first-rank masters, who acted as if they were in an empty palace, and from time to time a first-rank master would appear and stir up trouble in the palace.

It is better to stabilize the imperial power.

after all.

He will live in this palace for a long time.

"If all else fails, I can fake my own death, escape, and find a new identity. Then, I can return to the palace..."

"Anyway, I haven't been out of the library for a long time, and not many people know me."

Su Chen was thinking.

The set of boxing techniques he practiced finally came to an end.

boom!

The air waves danced wildly, triggering nine thunders.

"good."

"Nine thunderclaps?"

"I'm only at the early stage of the Muscle and Bones Realm, am I already catching up to the average Muscle and Bones Realm Perfection?"

Su Chen put his fist away and stood up.

In the courtyard, the stirring smoke and dust gradually subsided.

Su Chen learned this set of boxing techniques from Daliang Wu Pavilion. It is a method of strengthening the muscles and bones, and is called Benlei Ao Ti.

In the Muscle and Bone Realm, by using this method, one can refine one's muscles and bones to the extreme, then one can explode with ten layers of thunder sound and step into the third level of marrow cleansing...

For those with outstanding talents, the limit is naturally more than ten levels of thunder sound.

According to the records of this method, the founding father of Daliang was the highest record-holder among martial arts prodigies. He exploded 71 times with thunder sounds and finally reached his limit. He killed an invading master at the peak of the third-grade marrow cleansing realm with one punch and finally entered the third-grade realm.

For ordinary muscle and bone realm, the limit is the ninth level of thunder.

Su Chen had just opened his muscles and bones and had not yet been refined, but he was able to explode with nine levels of thunder. It can be seen that he has an extraordinary talent that is unprecedented.

"Even the founder of Daliang was not as peculiar as me..."

"I don't know how far I can reach in this realm of muscles and bones. The seventy-first level of Thunder Sound has been praised in the history books of Daliang as a person with unparalleled talent and a genius of the ages."

“I wonder if I can surpass…”

A long time passed again.

The breath calmed down.

Su Chen then sat back at the stone table in the yard, picked up the fine coal with chopsticks, and slowly burned tea and boiled water. A small white jade bottle quietly appeared under his sleeve.

"Since you're here, why hide your head and show your tail? If you want to investigate something, just show up."

"Maybe I'll answer truthfully whatever you ask."

Su Chen suddenly spoke.

The scene was silent and motionless.

It was as if Su Chen was just talking nonsense to himself.

"If this continues, I'll have to send out the signal arrow."

"By the time……"

As he spoke, Su Chen was about to take something out of his arms.

next moment.

A figure quickly rushed in from the wall of the library.

She was wearing a red dress as bright as fire, her eyes were like deep pools, her eyebrows were sharp like swords, and her temperament was cold. She looked at him and spoke slowly.

"Su Chen, it's me."

The person who came was Zhang Gui.

But Su Chen sneered, and he clenched the bottle of Heart-Eating Powder in his sleeve instantly. With his other hand, he took out the arrow from his arms and pretended to throw it directly into the fire.

Once it burns and rises into the sky, even Emperor Jianwu would be alarmed.

Because this is the highest level warning arrow, only the chief steward of the palace can hold it. Su Chen is the sixth red-robed chief steward of the library appointed by Emperor Jianwu himself, so he is naturally qualified to hold one.

"Don't even pretend to be like that."

"Zhang Gui never puts on airs in front of me, let alone something as pretentious as you do."

Su Chen sneered.

"You scoundrel, either get out of here, or tear off the human skin mask on your face and show your true face before you talk about other things."

"Ok?"

The arrow was only an inch away from the stove.

Once ignited.

When the Prince of Zhenbei broke into the palace before, the turmoil had not yet subsided. This time, an assassin has entered the palace. God knows what the enraged Emperor Jianwu will do.

"Damn it."

"Zhang Gui" cursed and hesitated for a long time, but still did not retreat. Instead, he tore off the human skin mask on his face, revealing a pale face that was three parts elegant and seven parts feminine.

Zhang Gui's voice also changed from being cold and lonely at the beginning to being sharp and hoarse.

This is a eunuch!

"not good!"

Su Chen felt something was wrong and was about to throw the signal arrow into the fire.

as predicted.

The next second, his guess became reality.

"Huang Jiu!"

"When I heard you were one of us, I was really shocked. Haha, the sworn brother of the powerful East Factory Master Zhang Gui turned out to be the lowest of our Nineteen Black Abyss spies..."

"hehe."

"Our Xuan Er is polite."

"Everyone in the palace says there's a useless man in the library who, by sheer luck, saved Eunuch Zhang Gui's life. That's how he became the sworn brother of the famous East Factory Master. In my opinion, Eunuch Su is the real hidden master..."

"Although I am a third-rank master, I have already mastered the Shadowless Technique to perfection. Even a second-rank master would find it difficult to detect my whereabouts. But as soon as I approached, Eunuch Su revealed my whereabouts. Haha."

The feminine eunuch had a forced smile on his face, and it was obvious that he had already learned from the Black Lotus Saint that Huang Jiu and Su Chen were suspected of defecting.

If anyone else had defected, they would have been wiped out long ago.

Only Su Chen could survive until now because he hid in the deep palace and had Zhang Gui's care.

"Grand Chamberlain, Eunuch Wuchen, I don't understand what you are doing."

"What Xuan Er Huang Jiu? I am Su Chen!"

Su Chen also had a forced smile on his face.

He put the signal arrow into his arms.

Eunuch Wuchen is at the peak of the third-grade Ninggang realm. He assists a chief eunuch and is in charge of the secret guards of the palace for the emperor. He is in a high position and has great power. He basically does not walk around the palace and is deeply trusted by the old emperor. No one expected that he would be a hidden pawn of Heiyuan, and he is only at the Xuan level, not even Xuanyi. It is really incredible.

Shadowless Technique?

Su Chen had heard of an extremely mysterious and difficult method to practice.

In terms of cultivation, he naturally couldn't see through it.

But he could clearly see the glaring sign of Wu Chen's lifespan, which was about to run out.

How could he not notice it running towards him so clearly?

"We made a slip of the tongue."

"hehe."

"Eunuch Su, I have revealed my identity and come here to take something from you, Eunuch Su, according to the Holy Saint's order."

"After you killed Eunuch Xu, the Black Envoy, I wonder if Huang Yi, his daughter, has come to seek revenge against you? If so, please return all her belongings, even her remains!"

Wu Chen stared at Su Chen with his narrow eyes, but at the end, his tone became heavier, and a surge of energy surged in his body, as if he wanted to attack Su Chen.

Huang Yi, the daughter of Eunuch Xu, the black-robed envoy.

Su Chen thought for a while, then he remembered that when the prince rebelled and the palace changed that night, this person did take advantage of the chaos to kill him.

He was only at the fourth level of the Violent Qi Realm, and was killed by him with a single leaf while he was at the fifth level of the initial stage of the Flesh and Blood Realm. He was not a powerful character, so he was not searched and was buried hastily.

After all this time, I found out that this guy has something good on him.

Su Chen's eyes lit up.

"presumptuous!"

"You dare to peek at the things of the Holy Church?"

Wu Chen was extremely angry.

"Hand it over!"

At this moment, the terrifying罡气 ravaged the entire courtyard. Countless flowers and plants were crushed by the dust-free罡气, and the already strong strange phenomenon in the courtyard became more than ten times stronger in an instant.

"So what if I don't hand it over?"

Looking at the crushed poisonous flowers and plants, Su Chen felt pity for them.

"Don't pay?"

"hehe!"

"Then I, a peak third-grade cultivator, would like to learn a thing or two from you. I want to see what despicable tricks you, a useless person from the library, used to keep Eunuch Xu, the black-robed messenger, captive!"

After saying that, Wu Chen's robe fluttered, and a whisk flew out from his sleeve, like a sharp sword or a long whip, making a thunderous sound and going straight for Su Chen's head.
