There is a good place for poems and books, and the rain in front of the door is good.
Outside the door, a drizzle was falling. Song Xuan was lying on a bench in the wing room in the backyard of the Xuanyiwei Yamen in Jiangnan Prefecture, holding the Purple Blood Method in his hand, studying its essence while occasionally looking at the rain outside the door.
Ye Gucheng was dragged out for a drink by Lu Xiaofeng and Hua Manlou, who said that drinking on a rainy day was the most enjoyable experience.
Zhou Dawei took the Xuanyi Guards to the Xingyun Villa to clean the floor and see if he could find the location of the treasure house.
Victoria Song took Zhang Yurou out for a stroll, wanting to experience the misty and rainy atmosphere of Jiangnan and see if they could meet the White Snake by the West Lake.
For a moment, the yard where Song Xuan was was extremely quiet. Except for the sound of rain dripping along the eaves, no one dared to disturb him.
Song Xuanle likes his leisurely life, a peaceful and quiet life.
His life was peaceful, but in the martial arts world, the destruction of Xingyun Villa caused an uproar.
Xingyun Villa belongs to a semi-hidden force. Most people just regard it as an ordinary villa and don’t think much of it, but powerful people in the martial arts world know clearly what status this seemingly ordinary villa holds in the martial arts world.
He was the king behind the scenes of the martial arts world in the Southern Song Dynasty. The order of the entire martial arts world was created by Xingyun Villa. There were countless masters in the villa, and there were probably no less than ten masters that ordinary martial artists would rarely see in their lifetime.
For most people in the world, the innate state is a realm that they have been pursuing all their lives but have never been able to achieve. As for the master, that is a realm that they dare not even dream of.
However, the Xingyun Villa, which had such a terrifying background, was wiped out within a day. With Hangzhou City as the center, all kinds of rumors spread throughout the entire Southern Song Dynasty martial arts world within half a month.
The martial arts world was in an uproar and it was unbelievable.
The more powerful one is, the less they believe that the Xingyun Villa will be wiped out. However, as more and more people from the martial arts world go to the ruins of Xingyun Villa to investigate, many people remain silent.
Because the villa had long been in ruins, large groups of Black-robed guards could be seen from time to time, exploring something everywhere.
The news that the Xuanyi Guards wiped out the Xingyun Villa was completely confirmed in the martial arts world.
......
Fuzhou City, seaport.
Senior Sun, who had luckily escaped with his life, sat in a restaurant called Chunhualou, drinking wine in a private room with a bitter taste in his mouth.
The restaurant was bustling with activity, with many martial artists drinking and chatting in groups of two or three, and most of them were talking about the extermination of the Xingyun Villa.
Everyone described it vividly, as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
Some say it was the first-class Xuanyi Guards from the imperial capital who took action.
Some say that Xingyun Villa offended a master from the Five Absolutes and was wiped out.
Some of these stories are at least somewhat reliable, but some are extremely outrageous. For example, the top management of Xingyun Villa started a fight over a certain pretty widow, and eventually the entire villa was destroyed in the grandmasters' melee.
Hearing the chaotic mix of true and false news, Senior Sun sneered and even felt anger welling up in his chest.
dong dong dong.
There was a knock on the door outside the single room.
Before Senior Sun could speak, the door was opened, and then a middle-aged man with a wine gourd hanging around his waist, who looked like a down-and-out scholar, pushed the door open and walked in.
"Senior Sun, long time no see."
"It's you? You traitor, how dare you come to see me!"
Seeing the person coming, Senior Sun glared at him. He was naturally familiar with this so-called military advisor of Xingyun Villa.
He had ridiculed the other party for running away before the battle.
"Senior, it's boring to talk about this!"
The military advisor was not annoyed. He sat at the table with a smile, picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass of wine.
"If you are a man of courage and generosity who is ready to face death head-on, why are you here now?"
"you!!"
Anger showed on Senior Sun's face, and his chest kept rising and falling, but after staring at him for a few seconds, he silently picked up the wine glass and took a sip.
Speaking of which, his act of running away at the critical moment and using Feng Lun and Mo Laoguai as scapegoats was even worse than that of this military advisor.
It's like the pot calling the kettle black when you're fifty steps away. What qualifications does he have to blame others?
"Did you come here to see me make fun of you?"
After drinking a glass of wine, Senior Sun stared at the military advisor with a gloomy face, wondering in his heart whether he should capture this guy and hand him over to the Xuanyi Guard as a token of his surrender?
This time, he finally realized how powerful the Xuanyi Guards were.
He had never been serious about it before, but this time he really wanted to kill. The Nebula Villa, which he once regarded as a behemoth, was destroyed in the blink of an eye. They were not even on the same level at all.
He was originally a casual cultivator, without any sect or school, and had survived to this day with great difficulty after stumbling along the way. He didn't want to become an enemy of a hopeless force like the Xuanyi Guard just for the sake of a destroyed Xingyun Villa.
"Senior, you'd better give up the idea in your heart!"
The military advisor seemed to have guessed what Senior Sun was thinking and sneered, "You've already registered with the Xuanyi Guards. Do you think you're going to offend the Emperor as well?"
Senior Sun was stunned. "Are you the emperor's man?"
The military advisor didn't deny it, but smiled noncommittally, "Senior, you've been blacklisted. Unless you stay in seclusion, you won't have a place in this vast world.
Have you thought carefully about how to go in the future?
Senior Sun snorted coldly, "Are you here to win me over and work for the Emperor?"
"Indeed!"
Senior Sun scoffed, "The Emperor, that useless piece of shit, is worthy of this? Everyone in this world knows that the Emperor is a piece of shit. Aside from the imperial capital, who in the other states can he control, whether it's the officialdom or the underworld?"
The military advisor was not annoyed, and said calmly: "Everyone says that the emperor is a waste, but have you ever thought that if it weren't for the emperor's suppression, Xingyun Villa would have been destroyed by the Xuanyi Guards thirty years ago, and how could it have been prosperous for thirty years!
The Xuanyi Guards are very powerful, but the emperor’s methods are not weak either.
Over the years, both openly and covertly, many underworld forces in various states have been supported by the emperor to contain the Xuanyi Guards."
Upon hearing this, Senior Sun frowned and fell into deep thought.
The military advisor continued, “Senior, no matter how good the Xuanyi Guard is, it wants your life.
Even if you, Your Majesty, look down on us, you cannot deny that he is the only one in this world who can suppress the Xuanyi Guards.
"To surrender to the Emperor, or to be hunted down by the Xuanyi Guards, this choice isn't difficult, right?"
Chapter 245 From now on, I have the final say in this world!
The third update, this chapter is an extra update to generate 2,000 words for love.
.....................
The choice was indeed not difficult. After the military advisor's analysis of the pros and cons, Senior Sun was won over.
After a round of toasts, things became lively between the two sides.
"Military Advisor, tell me the truth, is the Emperor reliable?"
The military advisor laughed and said, “When it comes to cultivation, the emperor is not good enough, but when it comes to political strategy, the emperor is truly amazing.
Before the emperor ascended the throne, the Xuanyi Guards were at their peak of power, and the martial artists in the martial arts world were suppressed and dared not show their faces. Even the major martial arts holy places closed their mountains and refused to let anyone come out.
But now you see, the top fighters of Xuanyiwei can only stay in the imperial capital and cannot go out at will. The rivers and lakes in various states are in turmoil, and various forces have sprung up like mushrooms after rain, and there is even a trend of suppressing Xuanyiwei.
Isn't this method powerful enough?"
Senior Sun drank his wine and complained, "Military Advisor, to be honest, I don't understand the emperor's thoughts.
The Xuanyi Guard is an organization that was established during the time of Emperor Taizu. No matter what, they are the sword of the emperor.
Just because the knife was too sharp, in order to blunt it, the emperor used it to chop at his own house. What was he trying to achieve?
The military advisor was silent for a moment, exhaled a breath of alcohol, and sighed, "No matter how good the Xuanyi Guards are, they are only loyal to the Great Zhou, not the emperor.
No matter how sharp the knife is, what use is it if it is not easy to use?
The current emperor is a man of great talent and strategy. He believes that the Xuanyiwei system is not perfect, so he is determined to forge a sword that will be loyal only to the emperor. This sword is called Jinyiwei!
The nine provinces of the world gradually fell into chaos, which was actually the result that the emperor wanted to see.
Only when there is chaos can we take advantage of the situation, either by dividing or winning over the people, and continuously expanding the power of the Jinyiwei.
To be honest, we have no shortage of Grandmasters like you in the Jinyiwei, the only thing we lack is a Grandmaster!"
"Grandmaster..."
When the word "Grand Master" was mentioned, both Senior Sun and the military advisor fell silent.
These three words are too heavy.
There is always a chance to win over a martial arts master, either through intimidation or bribery.
But when a grandmaster reaches this level, although he cannot be said to have no desires or demands, there are very few things in this world that can attract him.
The current emperor simply cannot offer enough chips to attract the grandmaster to work for him.
You can't give up the throne of the emperor just to win over a grand master, right?
After a long moment, Senior Sun finally spoke quietly, "Military Advisor, where should we go next? Leave Southern Song, or stay here and cause trouble for Song Xuan?"
"leave!"
The military advisor said without hesitation, "The greatest ability that has allowed me to survive until now is my strong sensitivity to danger.
At the beginning, the emperor used some means to restrict the first-class Xuanyi Guards from leaving the imperial capital, so he gave the martial arts world in various states thirty years to develop.
Originally, I single-handedly built up this Xingyun Villa, so it was all my credit. But unfortunately, Song Xuan came!"
Senior Sun was surprised, "Isn't Song Xuan a first-class Xuanyi Guard?"
"No!" The military advisor said helplessly: "He is the leader of the younger generation of the Imperial Capital's Black Guards and is very likely to become a commander in the future.
The Imperial Capital's Xuanyiwei Yamen allowed him to go out for training under the pretext of gaining experience. Even the emperor couldn't find a reason to restrict him.
We can only say that we were unlucky. That guy set his sights on Xingyun Villa as his first stop!"
"Then our luck is truly terrible!" Senior Sun downed the wine in his glass and asked curiously, "I'm actually very curious. Given the strength of the Xuanyi Guards, what methods did the Emperor use to actually restrict even the first-class Xuanyi Guards from leaving the capital?"
"I do not know either!"
The military advisor shook his head and said enthusiastically, "That's why I said that the emperor's political tactics are truly amazing!
Senior, joining the Imperial Guard will be the best choice in your life.
We, the Jinyiwei, will have an extremely bright future!"
......
Jiangnan Prefecture, the office of the Xuanyiwei Qianhu Suo.
Song Xuan, who had been idle for more than half a month, finally finished practicing the Purple Blood Method. Feeling the surging and burning blood in his body, he began to worry about his fiancée, Palace Master Yaoyue.
Alas, with such powerful physical strength, I don’t know if she can withstand my violent attack.
Shaking his head, Song Xuan dispelled the thoughts in his mind.
This Purple Blood Technique is really weird. It can actually arouse my desires and make my mind full of lust. No wonder Ye Gucheng thought that this technique is very easy to go astray after seeing it.
With his own heavenly-level fundamental skills, he would experience some sequelae after practicing the Purple Blood Method, let alone others?
The yamen hall was already full of people.
Victoria Song was sitting in the first seat on the left, drinking tea and eating melon seeds. Behind her, her maid Zhang Yurou was holding a plate of osmanthus cake, with a helpless look on her face.
Ye Gucheng, Lu Xiaofeng and others sat on the right. Lu Xiaofeng whispered something, which made Ye Gucheng and Hua Manlou smile reservedly from time to time.
As for Captain Zhou Dawei, he led a group of centurions to sit below with a humble smile on his face. He looked very humble and stood up from time to time to refill tea for several people.
When Song Xuan walked into the lobby, everyone stood up.
Song Xuan smiled and nodded, motioning everyone to sit down, and then his eyes fell on Song Qian.
"Do you think this is appropriate for such a serious occasion?"
"I was wrong!" Victoria Song shrank her head, quickly stood up, and handed a bag of melon seeds to her brother, "Don't be angry, I prepared it for you a long time ago."
Song Xuan looked at the melon seeds in his hand, then looked at Song Qian's caring expression, and couldn't help but cough.
"Well, today we're just chatting for a while. Let's all relax and don't take things too seriously."
As he spoke, he grabbed some melon seeds and started to eat them. His casual look made the Xuanyiwei captains in the hall breathe a sigh of relief.
During this period, they had been dealing with the aftermath of Xingyun Villa, but they had witnessed with their own eyes the deaths of everyone in the villa.
To put it bluntly, those who were able to piece their limbs together piece by piece were all blessed by their ancestors. For most people, not even a bone was left, let alone a complete body.
