Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

“Actually, I want a child just to deepen the relationship between me and my husband.

But if you and I could live forever in the future, I wouldn't want to have more children to share my husband's love for me!"

Song Xuan pinched her nose and said with a smile: "I like this about you, you are sensible!"

......

Above the river, the blood color has gradually faded.

In the evening, waves beat against the shore, drums beat one after another, and countless warships gathered from all over the river. From Yangzhou to the west, both sides of the Yangtze River within a hundred miles were blocked by the black-armored army of the Yuwen clan.

Yuwen Shang, the old leader of the Yuwen clan, came out in person, standing on a large warship.

This ship is like a giant beast on the sea. Its towering masts are full of sails, and its huge hull is equipped with dozens of cannons. The black muzzles are like ferocious fangs, exuding a majestic aura.

On the deck, hundreds of elite soldiers lined up on both sides. Yuwen Shang stood at the bow, looking down at the water where a trace of blood could still be seen.

Yu Wenzhi was bandaged all over like a dumpling. He followed Yu Wenshang obediently, looking around with vigilance.

"Valve Master!"

A general walked over quickly and stood respectfully in front of Yuwen's body. He whispered, "We've checked. There's no trace of the body left. Not a single person is alive!"

Yuwen Shang's face was stern, without the slightest change of expression. He said coldly, "Understood. Sound the horn and withdraw the troops. Return to the Yangzhou military camp!"

"As ordered!"

After the general left, Yu Wenzhi became anxious, "Father, are we just going to let it go?"

"What else can we do?"

The coldness on Yuwenshang's face faded, and his tone was filled with a bit of fear, "You still want to seek revenge?"

"But we can't just let it go like this, can we?" Yu Wenzhi gritted his teeth and said, "For so many years, it has always been my Yuwen family that has bullied others. We have never suffered such a great loss!

There were nearly 10,000 elite soldiers, including Chengdu and Wudi, both of whom were rare masters in the world. They died in such an unclear manner. If there is not even an explanation, where will our Yuwen family put its face in the future?

The Dugu and Li families must be laughing to death!"

Yuwen Shang glanced at him coldly, "Over the years, you have all been so high and mighty and arrogant!

I don't care if you're arrogant, but I never thought you'd be so arrogant that you'd lose your mind! "

As he spoke, he pinched Yu Wenzhi's bandaged head, pointed at the river below and shouted coldly: "Come, smell it, what do you smell?"

Yu Wenzhi was a little confused and asked hesitantly, "The smell of blood?"

"So you know the smell of blood!"

Yuwen said with a bitter voice, "Thousands of elite troops, with Grandmasters Chengdu and Wudi in command, do you know what this means?"

Yu Wenzhi moved his lips, as if to say that he could kill anyone he wanted.

But after hesitating for a while, he still didn't dare to say it, because these people, such a powerful force, were completely wiped out and fed to the fish!

"They're more likely to cause trouble than to help. I told them to dispatch troops to track down the people who injured you, but they've taken advantage of their vast army and acted recklessly, even provoking the Grandmaster!"

Yuwen Shang said angrily: "My Yuwen family is a wealthy and powerful family with deep wealth, but no matter how rich our family is, how can we withstand such a torment!"

"Grandmaster?"

Yu Wenzhi swallowed his saliva, somewhat unbelieving, "Not really, right? In the entire Tangzhou, there are only a few Grand Masters. Martial Master Bi Xuan is in charge of the grasslands, Fu Cailin is far away in Goguryeo, and although Ning Daoqi doesn't have a fixed territory, he is also elusive and rarely appears in front of the world.

Although Chengdu and Wudi are arrogant, they are still recognized by the grand masters. Even if they are blind, they would not provoke the grand masters, right?

How great must the hatred be to make the Grand Master so angry that he would kill them all, even leaving no trace of their bodies?"

Chapter 439 Who do you think the Xuanyi Guards can kill to establish their authority most effectively?

"Yes, what a deep hatred must one have to provoke the Grandmaster to go on such a killing spree!"

Yuwen Shang felt tired.

The Yuwen clan is really used to being high and mighty. They have never stopped bullying men and women and killing innocent people. People in the clan have long been accustomed to it and think it is the most normal thing.

Therefore, even Yuwen Shang himself did not know what the people below had done to provoke such an enraged Grand Master.

"Some powerful top-level masters can even still have enough energy to attack the army formation after being restrained by Chengdu and Wudi.

But it will only cause some casualties to the army, not serious damage."

Yuwenshang looked at Jiang Shui and analyzed, "Facing a top-level master, even if Chengdu and Wudi are defeated, they will still have no problem escaping.

Being able to completely annihilate an entire army without leaving a single survivor, or even leaving no trace of their bodies, is simply not something a Grandmaster can achieve."

He rubbed his forehead and said, "The most important thing now is to know which Grandmaster they offended and why they provoked him to be so furious.

Will the other party calm down now? If not, my Yuwen family will be in danger!"

In all parts of Kyushu, aristocratic families are in a high position. Many garrison commanders in provincial capitals are from aristocratic families. They act tyrannically and no one dares to mess with them.

Of course, it’s not that no one dares to provoke him. At least, the powerful families and clans who possess grand masters dare not provoke him.

For example, a martial arts holy place with a grandmaster in charge, or a lone grandmaster, has always been the target of their flattery and attempt to win over.

"Father, how should we deal with this?"

Upon hearing that the matter might involve the Grand Master, Yu Wenzhi also became anxious.

After experiencing a life-and-death experience, he now longs to live more than anyone else. He really doesn't want to be wiped out by a grand master hiding in the dark while he is sleeping!

Yuwen Shang pondered for a long time and sighed, "At the level of Grandmaster, secular rules are basically no longer a constraint for them. In their eyes, the army is easily broken!

In the eyes of ordinary people, aristocratic families are giants that cannot be provoked, but in the eyes of grand masters, they are a joke.

If nothing unexpected happens, Chengdu and his men might be provoking a lone grandmaster who is free from all worries and has nothing to worry about. Even those martial arts holy places that have been passed down for more than a hundred years will not easily provoke such an existence.

If there is any force in this world that the Grandmaster is afraid of, it is only the Xuanyi Guards!"

"Xuanyi Guard?"

Yu Wenzhi felt a little ridiculous.

In Tangzhou, the Xuanyiwei had a weak presence and had no say at all. For example, the Qianhu Suo in Yangzhou, Captain Sun, always bowed and scraped before Yu Wenzhi, and did not act like a strong man at all.

Yu Wenzhi's impression of them since childhood is still that they are useless. These people take bribes, do not do their jobs, and spend their days idling and bragging. When it comes to playing with women, they are more excited than anyone else, but when it comes to tasks to do, they all have sore waists or legs.

How could the Grand Master be afraid of such a bunch of useless people?

"What you saw were only the Xuanyi Guards from Tangzhou!"

Yuwen Shang sighed, "Just because they can't do it doesn't mean the Xuanyi Guards in the imperial capital can't do it either!

The Great Zhou was established three hundred years ago, and there are many martial arts sacred places throughout the Nine Provinces. However, these sacred places are all honest and obedient, and none of them dare to rebel. You don't really think that they are all law-abiding and easy to talk to, do you? "

He waved his hand and said, "Let's go, withdraw our troops and go to the Qianhu Office in Yangzhou.

Over the years, our Yuwen family has given them a lot of women and money. Now it's time for them to contribute!"

Yu Wenzhi was a little unimpressed. "Father, I'm not trying to discourage you, but we really can't pin our hopes on those termites. Expecting them to get things done is worse than expecting a sow to climb a tree!"

Yuwen Shang slapped him on the head and said, "You don't care about the situation outside at all!

A few months ago, the Xuanyi Guard sent an inspector from the imperial capital to recall all the thousand households from the twelve prefectures of Tangzhou to the imperial capital. Do you know what this means?

Yu Wenzhi's mind cleared up after receiving the slap. He analyzed, "Does this mean the Imperial Capital is going to reshuffle the Tangzhou Xuanyi Guards?"

"anything else?"

"What else?"

Yuwen Shang shook his head in disappointment, "You have to understand that the original purpose of the establishment of the Xuanyi Guard was to check and balance the forces in the martial arts world and stabilize the situation in the Great Zhou.

In addition, the Xuanyi Guard is essentially a privileged organization. Whether it is for promotion or to complete the tasks assigned by superiors, killing is required!

When the Inspector General comes to Tangzhou, he will definitely kill a group of people to establish his authority.

Who do you think would be the most effective way to establish authority by killing them?"

Yu Wenzhi became smarter and pointed at his nose, "I think that destroying our clans would definitely be the most effective!"

"You finally have some brains!"

Yuwen Shang finally had a hint of a smile on his face, "But speaking of merit, do you think that destroying any clan can be more effective than destroying a Grandmaster?

You must know that the purpose of the Xuanyiwei's existence is first and foremost to deal with the forces of the underworld.

To attack a Grandmaster, you need a suitable and sufficient reason!"

Yu Wenzhi's expression changed several times, and he suddenly said, "I understand. I will take people to the Xuanyiwei Qianhu Division to report the case now!

Although the Black Armor Army is under the control of our Yuwen family, it is nominally the regular official army of Tangzhou.

"The gangsters are relying on their martial arts prowess to slaughter government troops and kill their generals. This is a real rebellion. As long as the Inspector reports this to the Imperial Capital, the Xuanyiwei headquarters will definitely take it seriously!"

Yuwen Shang nodded in satisfaction and said, "Very good, you finally look like the next clan leader. Go ahead. The Inspector has come to Tangzhou and needs to find something to do. A major case like this that may involve a Grandmaster will definitely keep him busy for a long time!"

Yu Wenzhi accepted the order and left, but he was actually a little uneasy.

His father's strategy of driving away the wolf and devouring the tiger sounded good, but for some reason, he always felt that something seemed wrong.

But I couldn't tell what was wrong at the moment.

......

On the river, a small boat was drifting with the current. Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong were sitting on the boat, staring at the longevity secrets in their hands and studying them.

After Fu Jun'er recovered from her injuries, she also looked at the so-called secret manuals of martial arts in the hands of the two men. After a while, she lost interest in these weird things.

"Don't practice it anymore. This stuff is just something those Taoist Qigong practitioners made up to deceive people."

Fu Jun'er sneered and said, "The exercise routes in those pictures are completely nonsense. If you really practice according to them, you will definitely go crazy!"

"If you have that much time, you might as well learn some sword techniques with me to protect yourself. In a critical moment, it will be much more useful than these weird talismans!"

Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong turned a deaf ear to it.

It would be fine if you didn't talk about the Taoist method of practicing Qi, but now that you say it, we must practice it even more!

Do you still look down on Taoism?

If you have the ability, try to shine some light on the copper coin!

..........

It's the end of the year and I have a lot of things to do at home, so I can only post one chapter a day in the next few days.

Chapter 440 The Grand Master of Tangzhou Territory!

Ever since they met Taoist Qingyunzi and witnessed the magic of consecrated copper coins, Xu Ziling and Kou Zhong have become extremely adoring of Taoism.

No matter what it is, as long as it involves Taoism, the two of them dare not underestimate it.

Originally, they were still a little hesitant about whether they could practice the Art of Immortality, but after Fu Jun'er said this, they were immediately filled with motivation.

This cold-faced woman said that it cannot be practiced, then it can definitely be practiced!

The two had never learned martial arts before, and had no teacher to teach them how to get started. They immediately focused on looking at the pictures of the Changsheng Jue. In the end, Kou Zhong practiced the sixth picture and Xu Ziling practiced the seventh picture.

Fu Jun'er watched coldly. The two young boys were so ignorant and fearless that they dared to practice anything. It would be a miracle if they didn't go crazy.

She felt a little disdainful in her heart, but she subconsciously looked into Xu Ziling's arms again. The mysterious copper coin was in this boy's arms.

She unconsciously frowned slightly. Anyone who could be favored by the Grand Master must have something extraordinary. Either he must be extremely talented or he must have extraordinary luck. Which type is this little guy?

...

On the black-covered boat, Song Xuan and Yao Yue were chatting about the power of Tangzhou, and they talked about the masters in Tangzhou.

"Speaking of masters, the first ones that come to mind are the three famous Grandmasters: Ning Daoqi, Bi Xuan, and Fu Cailin."

"Besides that, there is Song Que, the leader of the Lingnan Song Clan. This man's name, Heavenly Blade, is only relatively well-known in Lingnan. Not many people in the martial arts world know about him. Only a very few experts know how terrifying he is."

Song Xuan analyzed, "After that, there's the Demon Sect master, the Evil King Shi Zhixuan. This person is both good and evil. According to the records of the Xuanyi Guard, this person's cultivation has reached the level of a Grandmaster, but he suffers from severe schizophrenia, with two completely opposite personalities.

The two personalities hinder each other, so they cannot fully display the combat power of a Grandmaster, and their strength is unstable."

Yao Yue smiled and said, "I've also looked up Shi Zhixuan's situation. He was sacrificed by the Holy Maiden Bi Xiuxin of Cihang Jingzhai, who fed a demon with her own body, which broke his Dao heart. Although he's a Grandmaster, his future is basically cut off."

Song Xuan said "oh" and stared at her and asked, "Are you done?"

"Ah?" Yao Yue was stunned. "What else does my husband want me to say?"

Song Xuan said with a strange expression, "Madam, why don't you take this opportunity to say a few words to me?"
