Living forever in the deep palace

Xu Xiaohan felt numb all over.

He knew that Master Su was powerful, but he didn't expect him to be so powerful! These were five third-grade masters, not ordinary martial artists guarding the streets. How could he kill them all by himself?

Could it be that Master Su is a second-grade master!

Nineteen-year-old second-rank?

How can it be!

Godfather Zhang Gui, at the age of twenty-four or twenty-five, had already reached the second-grade Nu Gang realm and was already a genius, causing an uproar in the world. Countless sects and forces, even the first-grade ones, remembered this East Factory Master deeply.

If the news of a nineteen-year-old second-rank official were to spread, the whole world would be in an uproar, and all the first-rank officials would gather together.

"Am I that amazing?"

Looking at the deputy general manager's corpse all over the ground, Su Chen was also surprised.

He doesn't pretend anymore!

There is no magical method in this world that can guarantee that someone will enter the third level.

Su Chen said indifferently.

If Xu Xiaohan had no ambition, he would not have flattered Zhang Gui and become one of Zhang Gui's first godsons.

Emperor Jianwu personally appointed Xu Xiaohan, a third-rank Ning Gang official, to take over the position of deputy general manager of the Shangwu Bureau, acting as the general manager, in charge of all the practicing eunuchs and blue-robed managers in the Shangwu Bureau!

Su Chen drank tea and revealed Xu Xiaohan's thoughts in one sentence.

Countless jealous eyes seemed to engulf Xu Xiaohan.

"This Xu Xiaohan, with his humble talent, didn't even lose his inner energy and sever his heart meridians, yet he became a third-rank official? And with a third-rank official, he's in charge of thousands of eunuchs practicing in the Shangwu Bureau? The last person with such power was Zhang Gui..."

With a flick of a finger.

A stream of immortality energy from Su Chen's body penetrated into Xu Xiaohan's body.

"I was born a beggar, always being trampled upon. My life was worthless, and no one cared if I died! But after I entered the palace, followed my godfather, and met Master Su, I finally understood what power and glory are!"

"Thank you, Master Su!"

Digging the soil and burying the body, all done in one go.

They were all of the third rank, or deputy chief stewards of the Imperial Palace. Each of them was in a high position and had great power. They were not cabbages that could be found everywhere on the street. They were all killed at once.

"Xu Xiaohan? Haha, everyone knows that he has average talent. Relying on elixirs, he has already exhausted his potential by reaching the peak of the fourth rank at this age. He even dares to attack the Condensed Qi Realm from the Violent Qi Realm..."

This was a night raid by a top-tier Xuanyang Sect expert, posing a threat to Emperor Jianwu! Next time, it wouldn't be the five deputy stewards he'd kill, but the head of this Emperor Jianwu.

Fortunately, Nanyang County rebelled, and even a large sect like Xuanyang Sect was involved. The most elite forces in the palace were all guarding near the imperial study. Su Chen and Xu Xiaohan ran all the way back to the library and were not discovered.

Xu Xiaohan persuaded.

“Is power really that good?”

moment.

In a trance.

Zhang Gui is the knife in his hand.

It is also a fattened pig!

Obviously, Emperor Jianwu also thought that Zhang Gui might have been killed by the Xuanyang Sect, and he couldn't wait to take over everything of Zhang Gui, including his enormous wealth, the foundation of the East Factory, and the many practitioners loyal to Zhang Gui.

"Master Su..."

Because, there was really no trace of the whereabouts of the five deputy general managers in this palace.

"Please support me, Master Su!"

There were even rumors in the palace.

"How dare you threaten me!"

Xu Xiaohan's knees went weak and he knelt on the ground in fear.

Countless sneering eyes focused on Xu Xiaohan.

The blue-robed steward was the end of him.

In Daliang, a first-rank official was equal to the emperor.

In front of him, Xu Xiaohan, wearing the deputy general manager's inner green and red robe, stood respectfully beside Su Chen, acting like a son, with tears of gratitude, and wanted to make tea for Su Chen.

After all, who could have imagined that a 19-year-old, incapable of cultivation, Sixth Red Robe Steward would be so contemptuous of the imperial power, and could kill at will the five deputy stewards, and actually had the power to kill five third-grade masters.

the next day.

"Why would I kill you to silence you?"

a long time.

"Master Su, these are all deputy chief eunuchs of the Imperial Palace. You killed them all. If Emperor Jianwu or the First Supervisor knew about this..."

That night, after learning of Master Su's true strength, Xu Xiaohan's ambitions burned fiercely, and he tossed and turned for several sleepless nights. As a godson, why couldn't he get a piece of the action?

Xu Xiaohan swallowed hard, looking at the skilled Su Chen and the corpse vaguely exposed in the medicine field, and shuddered.

"why?"

that's it.

"I'm only a fourth-rank rank."

The palace guards, together with the secret guards, searched every corner of the palace, but still found nothing.

"You're still giving so much advice."

"That's great! Another position for a blue-robed manager is now vacant. I bet if he tries to force his way to the third level of Condensed Qi, his heart meridians will be broken and he will die."

"I have no roots and no home! I want to be the deputy steward, the steward, to hold power in my hands! I want people to never look down on me, Xu Xiaohan, again!"

the next day.

It's only been less than half a month, and people's hearts are already so unsettled. It's obvious that Emperor Jianwu was behind this.

Xu Xiaohan knew that if it weren't for the methods Su Chen used on him last night, he would have been torn to pieces by the violent罡气 last night, and there would be no chance for him to straighten out the罡气 and stabilize the third level realm.

And then.

Emperor Jianwu really believed the rumors and stepped into the Tianwu Tower late at night. His originally wavering heart instantly decided to go to war, and the next day he determined the day for the army to set out in the court.

"What kind of shitty luck is this!"

But this time we killed a lot.

Xu Xiaohan followed jogging all the way.

"Master Su..."

Xu Xiaohan spent the whole night in the library in fear.

The eunuchs in the palace, from the red-robed chief steward to the ordinary eunuchs, were in an uproar and terrified.

"Even businesses selling perfume and soap are being targeted..."

If Zhang Gui really became a first-rank official, with tremendous power under his command and countless adopted sons following him, he, the Jianwu Emperor, would probably become a puppet emperor.

Xu Xiaohan successfully escaped from confinement and went straight into the imperial study. He knelt down and kowtowed three times, and Emperor Jianwu had a long conversation with him.

"Master Su, when did you become a second-rank official?"

"So what if he's the deputy chief steward of the Imperial Palace? It's not like he hasn't killed anyone before."

"Tsk, I really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is. How can I write the word death!"

"Don't kill me to silence me!"

"Master Su, after godfather disappeared, his trusted confidant who stayed behind at the Shangwu Bureau, the deputy general manager, turned against him."

He, Xu Xiaohan, has been submissive in front of other godsons for three years. Today, he wants to take advantage of Master Su's support and make a name for himself!

This caused quite a stir in the Shangwu Bureau and even among other Taijiao officials.

But Xu Xiaohan still remained in seclusion.

No one suspected Su Chen's library.

"I understand! Master Su, you are a fourth-rank."

I'm afraid the entire palace is about to be hit by a major earthquake.

"check!"

He had always thought that he could barely fight and kill the weaker third-grade soldiers, but in the end, he killed five senior third-grade soldiers with one move. Although they were old and frail, they were still five third-grade soldiers...

"Check it out for me!"

"The people in the Dongchang Yamen stationed abroad are also feeling uneasy."

"Go meet Emperor Jianwu and express your feelings. He's in need of a valuable horse bone, and you're the perfect match..."

He had even prepared himself to be kicked out by Master Su and never be liked by Master Su again, but he didn't expect that Master Su would actually help a worthless person like him.

Thinking of this, Su Chen became a little panicked. He carried the five corpses on his shoulders and ran towards the library.

In the library.

Looking at the ambition in Xu Xiaohan's eyes, Su Chen remembered that when he first met Zhang Gui, he had the same look in his eyes.

"Since that's the case, I'll let you see the true strength of Daliang..."

But he couldn't help but believe it.

Xu Xiaohan nodded repeatedly with an ambiguous expression, as if to say, "I understand what Master Su meant."

"Master Su!"

"Second rank?"

Zhang Gui's faction seemed to be at its peak, but it all depended on the backbone Zhang Gui. Now that Zhang Gui was missing, this huge foundation was showing signs of collapse.

Xu Xiaohan's calves were trembling.

Xu Xiaohan's eyes became firm and he kowtowed heavily.

The palace was in an uproar.

"You've served me for three years, how could you not understand my desire to stay away from disputes?"

As he spoke, Xu Xiaohan kowtowed again and said.

Su Chen remained calm and composed.

But he believed in Master Su.

"Xuan Yang Sect!"

Master Su actually did it, single-handedly raising him to the third rank, securing his position as deputy chief steward! He was actually the deputy chief steward of the Shangwu Bureau, a position just below the chief steward of the Imperial Household.

He already knew what he wanted.

"Please support me, Master Su!"

After a day and a night, the sixty-eighth immortality qi in Su Chen's body was finally restored.

He is truly a fourth-grade cultivator!

A second-rank cultivator could instantly kill five third-rank cultivators. Was it too much for a fourth-rank cultivator like him, who was only slightly stronger, to kill five deputy general managers? Su Chen felt that it was not excessive at all.

The culprit of all this, Su Chen, was in the library, drinking tea calmly, as if the disappearance of the five deputy general managers had nothing to do with him.

Even Zhang Gui's death may not have been without his hand.

He seldom took action while staying in the library.

"Faced with the recruitment efforts of various forces, the brothers in charge of the East Factory were also wavering. That night, I heard some rumors and went to investigate..."

At first, Emperor Jianwu didn't believe it.

His aptitude is average, and he will surely die if he tries to reach the third rank.

"Master Su, I won't tell anyone."

He consciously reduced his use of the immortality qi.

"Master Su, I was wrong. I shouldn't have had such wild dreams..."

The five bodies were thrown into the pit, and Su Chen buried them with ease.

these years.

Xu Xiaohan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Master Su was still the same Master Su, and couldn't help but ask.

No wonder the seeds of exotic flowers and plants from all over the world can all be planted and survive in this medicinal field. After all this time, I found that the quality of the fertilizer in this medicinal field is so good.

In Zhang Gui's faction, Xu Xiaohan has been serving Su Chen all year round. It would be better to say that he is Su Chen's godson than Zhang Gui's godson. He has been ostracized by Zhang Gui's trusted sons for many years and has become a marginal figure.

He is the new emperor, and his maternal relatives were all killed by the previous Purple Robe Nine Thousand Years Old Emperor, so he also lacks foundation.

"With such a lowly talent, he was trying to reach the third rank, with a one in a thousand chance of success, yet he actually won the bet."

Su Chen drank tea, showing no emotion, and asked calmly.

Xu Xiaohan is not young anymore.

"Tonight, strive for the third rank, you will succeed!"

This is going to be a big deal.

Xu Xiaohan burst into tears and kowtowed heavily.

"The next day."

Emperor Jianwu was extremely angry.

"There's the East Factory outside, the Martial Arts Bureau inside, and the company as a money bag. These are all the legacy left by my godfather. Master Su, since you have such strength and are also my godfather's sworn brother, why don't you come forward and take over all of this..."

The five deputy general managers are missing, alive or dead. Even the dumbest person would know that something must have happened last night.

"You want a piece of Zhang Gui's legacy, and you want me to support you?"

If it were to get out, he would be in big trouble. Forget about fighting a first-grade fighter now. Even without the Heart-Eating Powder, any second-grade fighter would be able to beat him to a pulp.

That night he set out to reach the third rank.

a long time.

Su Chen looked at Xu Xiaohan like a fool.

I didn't expect that Mr. Su, who was always low-key, would kill so many people.

Having his thoughts revealed in one sentence, Xu Xiaohan felt like he was drunk in an icy cave. He knelt on the ground in fear, banging his head on the ground and trembling.

Su Chen was speechless for a while.

"Master Su."

Last night, he was still a humble man in a blue robe, but now, he is the hottest new noble in the palace, Deputy Chief Steward Xu.

All this was done by Su Chen in the blink of an eye.
