The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

The headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

hall.

"My lord, should we take the initiative and capture all these martial arts figures?"

Fang Heng bowed to Chu Xiu, who was sitting in the main seat of the hall.

Pei Shiji, Luo Tianxi, and Lin Huaiyu all turned their gazes toward Chu Xiu.

"Lin Huaiyu, have you investigated the cultivation levels of all the martial arts practitioners gathered in the capital?"

Chu Xiu did not answer Fang Heng's question, but looked at Lin Huaiyu and said calmly.

"Reporting to my lord, we have found out everything."

"The vast majority of the martial arts practitioners gathered in the capital are only at the Nascent Soul Realm, and very few have reached the Dharma Aspect Realm."

"From the first level of the Dharma Aspect Realm to the ninth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, everything is available."

"There are a total of thirty-six people at the Dharma Aspect Realm level."

Lin Huaiyu took out a Book of Impermanence from his sleeve, raised it with both hands, and said with a respectful expression, "However, these people are nothing."

What we really need to pay attention to are the four martial arts practitioners at the Immortal Ascension Realm level.

"The Immortal Ascension Realm level?"

Chu Xiu said with great interest, "I never expected that I would be able to attract four martial arts practitioners at the Immortal Ascension Realm level."

I will not bother reading this register of impermanence.

Tell me, what are the names of these four men?

"Your Excellency, these four are the Deadly Scholar, the Beautiful Nun, the Unrestrained Monk, and the Swift Sword Seeker Nameless."

"It is said that the cultivation level of the Deadly Scholar may have reached the third level of the Immortal Ascension Realm."

"His skill with hidden weapons is enough to strike fear into the hearts of many."

"However, this person's most terrifying weapon is not his hidden weapon."

"It's poison!"

"His hidden weapons contained an incredibly deadly poison."

"This poison is incurable. Once you are poisoned by this kind of deadly poison, even a god cannot save you."

"Yan Ni's cultivation level is at the second level of the Immortal Ascension Realm. She is skilled in a palm technique called Hundred Flower Palm, which is extremely powerful."

"The monk Bujie's cultivation level is at the peak of the third level of the Immortal Ascension Realm, only one step away from the fourth level."

"He cultivates the Golden Bell Shield, which is known as unparalleled in defense. Even a seventh-level Immortal Ascension Realm cultivator might not be able to break through his defense."

"The Great Stone-Splitting Hand technique is an unparalleled and powerful external martial arts palm technique."

"The most mysterious is the Swift Sword Seeker Nameless, whose swift swordsmanship is unparalleled in the world."

"It is only known that this person is in the Immortal Ascension Realm, but no one knows exactly which level he is in."

Lin Huaiyu pondered for a moment, then said with a solemn expression, "Among them, the one who seeks the nameless with the swift sword is the most terrifying, and also the one you need to be most careful of, sir."

Now that these four have arrived in the capital, they have not mingled with other martial arts figures.

Instead, they gathered together.

The four of them had no prior connection before coming to the capital.

My subordinates suspect that their gathering was likely orchestrated by someone with ulterior motives.

"A person with ulterior motives?"

"I just don't know who this person with ulterior motives is."

Chu Xiu chuckled and said.

After all, there were too many people who wanted him dead.

It's not just Wanfo Temple and Wushangmicheng Temple.

The powerful families of the Great Zhou Dynasty all hoped for his death so they could inherit his Embroidered Uniform Guard.

"My lord, shall we, the Sky-Shocking Guards, take action?"

"I will immediately lead the Sky Guards and capture all four of them!"

"Once they enter our Embroidered Uniform Guard prison, let alone those at the Ascension Realm, even those above it will be punished!"

"I assure you, they will honestly confess everything!"

"Then we'll know who instructed them to come to the capital to kill you, sir!"

A murderous glint appeared on Fang Heng's face as he spoke firmly and resolutely.

"My lord, our Divine Guards can also be deployed!"

"My lord, we Jingxian Guards are the same!"

Pei Shiji and Luo Tianxi were also eager to try.

The Jing Shen Guard and Jing Xian Guard have now been replenished to three thousand men each.

In terms of numbers, it is in no way less than Fang Heng's Sky Guard.

Of course, their combat strength is definitely inferior to Fang Heng's Sky Guard.

After all, the Shocking Guard had already gone through two major battles with Chu Xiu, namely the Ten Thousand Buddha Temple and the Vajra Sect.

However, most of the members of their Jing Shen Guard and Jing Xian Guard were only recently recruited.

"Not urgent."

"If you want to make a move, you'll have plenty of opportunities."

"It's almost time."

"If I'm not mistaken, they should be arriving around this time."

Chu Xiu smiled calmly and said.

"Sir, do you mean they'll come to our Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters to cause trouble for you?"

Pei Shiji was stunned for a moment, and said with a look of astonishment.

Fang Heng and the others looked at Chu Xiu in disbelief.

A group of martial arts practitioners came to the Jinyiwei headquarters to cause trouble for Chu Xiu. Weren't they just courting death?

After all, according to their thinking, anyone who dares to cause trouble for Chu Xiu at the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters is trying to attack their headquarters, which is to provoke the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Great Zhou Dynasty.

"Why not?"

"People in the martial arts world think differently from you."

People in the martial arts world prefer to fight alone.

"Although they may band together, they believe that as long as I openly challenge them, they will definitely accept the challenge."

"It will be a one-on-one fight with them."

Chu Xiu stood up and addressed Fang Heng and the others.

Upon hearing this, Fang Heng and the others showed a look of sudden realization, and said with admiration, "Your Excellency is wise."

According to the people in the martial arts world, it was indeed possible to come to the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters to challenge Chu Xiu.

"Chu Xiu!"

"I, Jiang Tao, the Black Fiend Palm Master, have come to challenge you!"

A loud shout rang out from outside the headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

This caused a stir throughout the entire headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!

It was as if the sound alone was enough to crush the entire headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Those Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards) below the Dharma Aspect Realm felt dizzy and disoriented.

"Look, here it comes!"

Chu Xiu said with a playful smile, "Let's go, let's go out and meet these people from the martial arts world."

"Yes!"

Fang Heng and the others shouted in unison.

Chu Leisurely strolled towards the outside of the main hall of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.

Fang Heng, Pei Shiji, and Luo Tianxi exchanged glances and nodded simultaneously.

What are they?

They are the Embroidered Uniform Guards!

They're not from the martial arts world, so they wouldn't talk to those martial arts practitioners about fighting one-on-one!

As soon as Fang Heng and his two companions stepped out of the main hall of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters, they gave orders to the Embroidered Uniform Guards guarding outside the hall. Naturally, they summoned the Shocking Heaven Guard, Shocking God Guard, and Shocking Immortal Guard to prepare for battle.

Not long after.

Chu Xiu then led Fang Heng and the others out of the Embroidered Uniform Guard headquarters.

Outside the headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, hundreds of martial arts practitioners had gathered.

These martial arts practitioners, each with the weakest cultivation level, have all reached the Grandmaster realm, and there are also a large number of martial arts practitioners at the Nascent Soul realm.

All thirty-six martial arts practitioners at the Dharma Aspect Realm level were present.

A middle-aged man at the peak of the first level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, with the aura of a grandmaster who was as deep as a mountain and as imposing as a valley, stood at the very front with his hands behind his back.

This is clearly Jiang Tao, the so-called "Black Fiend Palm".

"So it's you who want to challenge me?"

Chu Xiu didn't even glance at Jiang Tao, but instead looked at the group of martial arts figures and spoke calmly.

"It's not us, it's me, Jiang Tao, the Black Fiend Palm, who wants to challenge you!"

Jiang Tao's face darkened, and he stared at Chu Xiu with a cold and fierce look, speaking with a chilling aura.

Clearly, Chu Xiu's disregard made him feel humiliated, and he had already decided to kill Chu Xiu.
