In the world of "Covering the Sky": An Analysis of the Ancient Sacred Body at the Start

"Get up! Go back and destroy the items. I will let this go this time, but this will not happen again."

Zhu Wushi's ability to confess this matter shows that he was not just putting on a show, but genuinely repented.

As for those shameful secrets, as the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Yu Yi had no need for such things.

"Your Majesty, I have another matter to report. Not long ago, a spy who had infiltrated the Southern Prince's residence reported that the Southern Prince's heir seems to harbor ambitions to usurp the throne..."

"In addition, the investigation also revealed that Ye Gucheng and the Prince of Nanwang have a close relationship. The duel on the fifteenth of August may have concealed some kind of conspiracy..."

The most powerful thing about the Dragon Guard Manor has never been its martial prowess, but its unparalleled intelligence capabilities.

Its intelligence network is extensive, efficient, and accurate; there is little in the world that Zhu Wushi can hide from him if he wants to know something.

"As far as I know, that Prince of the South looks extremely similar to me, almost indistinguishable from the real thing."

"Now that Ye Gucheng is making a big show of going to the Forbidden City, what do you think they're up to?"

In ancient times, there was a story of a cat replacing the crown prince; now, the Prince of the South clearly wants to replace the real emperor with a fake one and take his place.

"Your Majesty, I humbly request permission to personally lead the secret agents of the Dragon Guard Manor to apprehend the Prince of the South, Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuixue, and others, and bring them to justice..."

Zhu Wushi quickly pledged his loyalty, saying that His Majesty had bestowed upon him the Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom, enabling him to revive Su Xin. He had been wondering how to repay this favor, and now the opportunity had presented itself.

"This farce should indeed end sooner rather than later. If two swordsmen were to have a duel at the Forbidden City, the entire Zhu imperial family would lose face."

"But before that, you need to clean up your own mess. Some things you either shouldn't be done at all, or you should go all the way to avoid future trouble!"

"Your Majesty understands..."

Even if His Majesty hadn't reminded him, he wouldn't have planned to keep Gu Santong around any longer. After all, he already had Tianxiang Doukou, and he would be able to wake Suxin soon.

If Su Xin knew that Gu Santong was not dead, would she leave him and return to Gu Santong's side?

The thought that Su Xin might return to Gu Santong's side made his heart ache, so before he could save Su Xin, he had to kill Gu Santong, his rival in love.

"By the way, back then Gu Santong told you that only a virgin could cultivate the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, but he lied to you. He himself was not a virgin."

"If you have the chance, remember to get your hands on the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and add it to the Imperial Armory. It would be such a pity if such a divine skill were lost."

"What? Gu Santong isn't a virgin? How is that possible? Could it be that he and Su Xin...?"

The thought of a certain possibility made Zhu Wushi's heart ache so much that he could hardly breathe. He clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug into his palms, and blood dripped from between his fingers.

Yu Yi was speechless. He had said so much, and this was actually Zhu Wushi's focus? The Zhu family really did produce a Casanova.

No matter what it is, as long as Su Xin is involved, Zhu Wushi will lose his composure and will no longer have the demeanor of the Iron-Blooded Marquis.

However, Zhu Wushi was right. Gu Santong and Su Xin did have an affair and even had a son, something Gu Santong himself was unaware of.

Yu Yi hesitated, wondering whether he should tell Zhu Wushi about this. If Zhu Wushi knew that Gu Santong and Su Xin had a son, would he be so angry that he would vomit blood?

However, Zhu Wushi will find out about this sooner or later. He didn't think about it before, but now that he has suspicions, he will definitely investigate.

With the intelligence capabilities of the Dragon Guard Manor, it's only a matter of time before they investigate Cheng Shifei's affairs.

"What? Pfft..."

Yu Yi told Zhu Wushi that Gu Santong and Su Xin had a son named Cheng Shifei. Zhu Wushi was so angry that he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"The Three Ancient Passes..."

Zhu Wushi gritted his teeth, wishing he could immediately rush to the ninth level of the Heavenly Prison and tear Gu Santong to pieces.

As for Su Xin? Zhu Wushi sighed inwardly. What else could he do? He could only choose to forgive her.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for informing me of all this. Otherwise, I would have remained completely in the dark..."

"I've told you everything I needed to say. I know you're in a hurry to get to the imperial prison. Go ahead and do your thing!"

"This humble subject takes his leave..."

After leaving the Imperial Study, Zhu Wushi, his face ashen, charged straight towards the ninth level of the Heavenly Prison.

The ninth level of the Heavenly Prison was dark and damp, surrounded by hard stone walls, with rotting corpses on the ground, emitting a sour, putrid, and decaying smell.

Deep within the prison, a man with disheveled hair, graying hair, and tattered clothes, who was firmly chained by four iron chains, sat on a stone platform.

"Hahaha, you old pig, why do you look so pale? What's bothering you? Why don't you tell me and let me have a laugh too..."

Looking at Zhu Wushi, who was standing in front of the prison door, staring at him with a ferocious expression, Gu Santong couldn't help but burst into laughter, the chains on his body rattling incessantly.

"Gu Santong, I have a question for you. Did you and Suxin secretly have a son?"

Yu Yi only told Zhu Wushi that Gu Santong and Su Xin had a son named Cheng Shifei, but forgot to tell him that Gu Santong did not know about this.

"What? Su Xin gave birth to a son for me? No wonder... no wonder I felt that Su Xin was acting strange for a while, it turns out she was pregnant."

"Hahaha, so I have another son after all. You old pig, you've finally lost to me..."

"Pfft~"

Zhu Wushi didn't want to show his vulnerable side in front of his rival, but in his extreme anger, he couldn't help but spit out blood again.

No normal man could accept that the woman he loved had a child with another man. This was a huge blow to Zhu Wushi.

"Gu Santong, I'm going to kill you! Not only you, but I'll also find that bastard child, kill him, and reunite you and your son in the afterlife!"

"Want to kill me? Then come on! I'm already at my last gasp, I won't live much longer anyway."

"If I could drag you down with me to the afterlife, I wouldn't be alone on my journey to the underworld..."

Gu Santong unleashed his Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, instantly transforming into a golden man. The iron chains binding his hands and feet were shattered by his powerful true energy.

The two fought fiercely, and after more than a decade, the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill and the Absorption Skill clashed once again.

Both skills have their own advantages and are the unique skills of the Eccentric Hero of Tianchi. The Vajra Indestructible Skill provides invincible defense, while the Absorbing Skill allows one to absorb the power of others and use it for their own benefit.

Over the years, Zhu Wushi has secretly absorbed the power of countless masters using the Absorption Technique, making his own power incredibly profound.

He also possesses the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, the Pure Yang Finger, innate protective qi, and the unique skills of the eight major sects, making him virtually invincible below the level of a terrestrial immortal.

Gu Santong has been imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison for years, feeding on spiders, cockroaches, geckos, and other insects. Coupled with his injuries, his physical condition is precarious.

Therefore, Gu Santong soon found himself at a disadvantage and could only rely on his Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill to defend passively.
