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

"This invincible golden body is no weaker than the strongest guardian divine skill of the four holy Buddhist sites."

Upon hearing this, Master Wuque raised his head and said earnestly, "I wonder where you got this information, sir? I have never heard of it before."

"If I said that I created it specifically for the Embroidered Uniform Guard, would the master believe me?"

Chu Xiu smiled slightly and said.

"letter."

“If anyone else had said that, I wouldn’t have believed it.”

"But I believe what Lord Chu said."

Master Wuque said with a look of shock on his face, "Because I have heard that the Jinyiwei Killing Blade Manual and Killing Blade Formation were also created by Lord Chu."

This martial arts technique and formation had never appeared in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

With Lord Chu's talent and ability, he was able to create this martial arts manual and formation.

Nature can also create an invincible body.

"Thank you for your trust, Master."

"Master, you should take a good look at this invincible golden body."

Chu Xiu smiled lightly, placed the five martial arts manuals that Master Wuque had given him on the table, and said, "I have read all five of these martial arts manuals."

They are indeed truly astonishing martial arts techniques.

"Place it on the third floor of the armory along with the manuals for the Invincible Golden Body, the Killing Blade Manual, and the Killing Blade Formation."

"I understand."

Master Wuque nodded and said.

"Since the master wants to integrate the external martial arts techniques of the four holy sites of Buddhism into one, forming a unified whole."

"Then why not try to comprehend and integrate this invincible golden body technique as well?"

"If the master can integrate all five of these peerless martial arts techniques for cultivating the body into one, he will surely be able to embark on the path to true invincibility!"

Chu Xiu pondered for a moment, then spoke to Master Wuque.

“Amitabha, that is exactly what I was thinking.”

Master Wuque put his hands together and said.

Chu Xiu turned and left.

The residence of the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites.

deep.

Outside the study.

Jiang Xin appeared out of thin air, bowed to the study, and said, "Master, the plan has failed."

squeak...

The voice just fell.

"These people in the martial arts world are indeed unreliable."

"So many people, yet they couldn't do anything to Chu Xiu."

The door slowly opened, and Wang Hao, the Left Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites, walked out of the study with a slight frown and said.

Jiang Xin gave a bitter smile and said, "Master, it's not really their fault. These people in the martial arts world are lawless and act recklessly."

However, in the capital, he ultimately dared not assassinate Chu Xiu.

The only option is to openly and honestly challenge them at the headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

And Chu Xiu had none of the arrogance of a martial artist.

They didn't even dare to have a fair fight with these martial arts practitioners, so they relied on the Jinyiwei's killing blade formation.

Even if a Celestial Realm expert were to make a move, they might not be able to defeat Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu's momentum has been established!

"The real masters are unwilling to take action; they are just a group of martial arts practitioners at the Immortal Ascension Realm level. It is indeed impossible for them to do anything to Chu Xiu."

Wang Hao sighed and said.

"Sir, what should we do next?"

Jiang Xin hesitated for a moment, then asked Wang Hao.

"There's not much we can do right now; we can only wait for Wanfo Temple and Wushang Micheng Temple to take action."

"It would be best to use the strength of these two families to eliminate Chu Xiu."

"If even with the combined strength of these two families, we still can't eliminate Chu Xiu..."

Wang Hao stopped speaking before he could finish.

Jiang Xin's eyelids twitched, and he understood what Wang Hao meant.

If neither Wanfo Temple nor Wushang Micheng Temple can eliminate Chu Xiu, then it will naturally be time for the Wang family of Taiyuan to take action themselves.

This is a last resort!

"The most important thing right now is not Chu Xiu, but everyone else."

"When they saw that Li Jingtian had become the Vice Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they probably couldn't wait to send their own people into the Embroidered Uniform Guard."

Wang Hao's face darkened, and he snorted coldly as he spoke.

Jiang Xin nodded slightly, his brows furrowed; he naturally understood what Wang Hao meant.

Although Lu Chengfeng, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, has now been completely sidelined.

However, as long as Chu Xiu dies, Lu Chengfeng can still take charge of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Then the Embroidered Uniform Guard would still belong to the Wang family of Taiyuan.

The better Chu Xiu developed the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the more beneficial it would be for the Wang family of Taiyuan.

If other factions were to extend their reach into the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they might not be able to achieve their goals.

The next day.

Jinluan Palace.

"When there is something to do, we will start to act, but when there is nothing to do, we will retreat."

Jiang Wan'er stood to the right of Empress Murong Si's dragon throne and shouted loudly.

"Your Majesty, I have something to report."

Lu Shi, the Vice Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices, stepped forward and bowed respectfully to Murong Si.

"allow."

Murong Si said indifferently.

"Your Majesty, the Embroidered Uniform Guard is severely lacking in officials."

"Currently, there is only one Deputy Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and one Assistant Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard."

"We are missing one Deputy Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, one Assistant Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, and two Garrison Commanders."

With a solemn expression, Lü Shi said, "Your humble servant recommends two people to serve as officials of the Embroidered Uniform Guard of our Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Oh?"

"I wonder who Minister Lü would like to recommend?"

Murong Si said calmly.

She had long anticipated that powerful families and influential figures in the court would extend their influence into the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Previously, all officials of the Embroidered Uniform Guard were promoted from within the Embroidered Uniform Guard itself.

Therefore, the list of Jinyiwei officials was decided by her alone.

However, now that powerful families and clans have seen Li Jingtian, who is not from the Embroidered Uniform Guard, enter the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they are surprised.

It would be impossible for powerful and influential families not to be tempted.

Of course, in the past, powerful and wealthy families might not have been interested.

But today is different.

The Embroidered Uniform Guard of today is not what it used to be.

All the eyes of the court officials were focused on Lü Shi.

"Your Majesty, I recommend Zhang Rulong and Jiang Tianyi to serve as the commanders of the Northern and Southern Garrison Divisions of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"

"Both of their ancestors were once commanders of the Embroidered Uniform Guard of our Great Zhou Dynasty!"

"However, for certain reasons, the two of them did not enter the Embroidered Uniform Guard. Instead, they participated in the imperial examinations of our Great Zhou Dynasty and became Jinshi during the reign of the late emperor."

"Zhang Rulong is now the Chief Clerk of the Personnel Evaluation Department of the Ministry of Personnel, and Jiang Tianyi is the Chief Clerk of the Youzhou Personnel Department of the Ministry of Justice."

"Both of them are exceptionally talented and accomplished individuals!"

"What's even more remarkable is that, being children of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, they both learned martial arts from a young age, possessing exceptional talent and extraordinary strength!"

"I am confident that I will be competent to serve as the Commander of the Northern and Southern Garrison Divisions of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"

Lü Shi said solemnly.

"Zhang Rulong?"

"Jiang Tianyi?"

A strange light flashed in Murong Si's eyes. These powerful and influential families had actually found the two of them.

Murong Si was naturally aware of these two people.

Both of them were indeed outstanding talents of their time.

Although not as good as Li Jingtian, he's not far off.

What's even more remarkable is that both of them happened to be former members of the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

They're not exactly outsiders.

"I second the proposal!"

All the civil and military officials shouted in unison.

Aside from the cabinet ministers, vice ministers of the six ministries, left and right censors of the Censorate, and the chief justice of the Supreme Court, who were all officials of the second or third rank, no one else was listed.

Nearly a third of the civil and military officials knelt down.

It's easy to imagine that behind these people are the powerful families behind Zhang Rulong and Jiang Tianyi.
