Isn't this the reason he was poisoned this time?
Someone is already impatient; he's in the way.
He has not yet attained immortality, yet he has already blocked other people's path.
Immortality does not mean immortality; you can still be killed. Those around you, your descendants, will always find an opportunity to stab you in the back.
Therefore, the emperor could not and should not attain immortality.
"Moreover, even the sun and moon wax and wane, never reaching fullness. How can an emperor on earth possess everything? There is no such logic in the world."
If you want to raise poisonous insects, it's naturally inappropriate for an outsider like me to comment. The world does indeed need a capable emperor.
However, the current state of affairs is not without reason why Your Majesty has allowed things to turn out this way.
You think you can control everything, but the truth is, there are many things you can't control.
Those who manipulate people's hearts will inevitably be controlled by people's hearts.
Your Majesty might consider my words: Mount Qingcheng and Mount Penglai are both quite suitable for retirement.
Let go when you should. Fighting back and forth will only hurt your loved ones and your very flesh and blood in the end.
Some things should be decided decisively. In my opinion, the Dragon Seal Scroll is truly laughable and a source of chaos.
I have said too much. I hope Your Majesty will not cause suffering to the people of the world for your own selfish reasons.
I have other things to do, so I'll have to stay a little longer.
As soon as Zhou Zhenhuan finished speaking, he deflated like a punctured balloon, turning into a paper figure. The paper figure floated into the flames and instantly burned to ashes.
Hua Jin looked at the somewhat distraught emperor and sighed.
"Uncle, what Old Zhou said is actually quite right."
The poison in your body has been detoxified for so long, why don't you come forward?
I'm young and don't understand the important things you're talking about.
It may seem like a power struggle within the royal family, but the royal family also belongs to the entire nation.
Every move the royal family makes shakes the world and causes the deaths of many innocent people.
They were so pitiful; they didn't even understand why they died.
Emperor Mingde glanced at her, and the little girl stuck out her tongue, stopped talking, and focused on eating.
The things Lao Zhou brought were delicious.
This mushroom is very meaty. When you bite into it, the savory broth is so delicious that it makes you want to swallow your tongue.
Emperor Mingde looked at Hua Jin, whose eyes were narrowed into slits, and sighed softly.
Was I truly wrong?
"I never expected to meet you here, senior. I am overjoyed."
Zhou Zhenhuan looked at Wuxin, who was dressed as a little eunuch, clicked his tongue, and circled around him twice.
"I must say, this outfit actually suits you quite well."
Wu Xin nodded with a smile: "It does fit quite well. I knocked out three eunuchs to get this set that fits perfectly."
"Have you seen the person?"
Wu Xin's smile turned somewhat bitter, and he nodded slightly: "Yes."
"They attacked?"
"Hmm, an old eunuch with very high martial arts skills. Wuxin is no match for him."
If it weren't for the help of his seniors, Wuxin might not have been able to escape.
The Tianqi Imperial Palace is indeed teeming with experts. I had perhaps underestimated the people of the world.
The young monk's aptitude was undoubtedly excellent, but he was still quite young.
Even geniuses need time to grow.
"The current situation in Tianqi City is turbulent, and the palace is heavily guarded. It is already quite remarkable that you were able to break in."
Was it worth losing half your life?
Wu Xin's expression became somewhat complicated: "It's worth it. She didn't recognize me, but she still remembers Ye Anshi."
Her life wasn't easy.
Zhou Zhenhuan gently patted his shoulder and transferred a stream of true energy to him, and Wuxin felt much better.
"This subtle internal force must have been the work of Eunuch Jin Xuan, one of the Five Great Supervisors. It seems you are indeed quite lucky."
Wu Xin chuckled twice: "Thank you for your help, senior."
"It's nothing serious. What are you planning to do next? Take her away?"
Wuxin seemed lost in thought. He shook his head uncertainly: "Maybe she doesn't want to come with me, but I'll give it a try."
"Let's go, I'll take you for a drink."
Qianjintai, where Xiao Se once won a city, a fact he boasted about for a long time.
But now, Qianjintai is in a state of utter devastation.
Sword energy roared inside, almost tearing the entire Qianjintai apart.
On the second floor, White King Xiao Chong and Furious Sword Immortal Yan Zhantian remained seated calmly, while on the adjacent viewing platform sat the man from the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The Crimson King did not dare to show himself, because he knew very well that Luo Qingyang was coming to kill him.
Now, his mother's influence is no longer enough to make Luo Qingyang spare his life.
However, the clothes on the Lone Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang's body were now almost tattered strips, but they were still firmly hanging on his body.
The spot where he had been standing was now occupied by another person, who defeated him with a single sword strike.
Luo Qingyang felt he should know this person, but unfortunately, the person had an unfamiliar face and he had never seen him before.
"who are you?"
"I am from the Jade Capital in the heavens, with its twelve towers and five cities. I come from the heavens, and you are Luo Qingyang?"
Chapter 202 He is Luo Qingyang
The Jade Palace in the Heavenly Palace?
Bai Wang's face instantly turned ashen, while the person next door, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, suddenly stood up, looking excited.
It turns out that what the elders of the sect had told us was true.
Baiyujing truly had connections with the immortals in heaven.
Moreover, this immortal's strength is too great.
Luo Qingyang is indeed a huge threat here, and everyone knows that he came to kill the Crimson King.
But on the first day of the Lunar New Year, this group of people insisted on protecting the Red King.
Now that the plan is about to succeed, the Crimson King is of paramount importance, and there is no way he can allow Luo Qingyang to kill him.
But even with all the experts in Baiyujing present, they couldn't kill Luo Qingyang.
Unexpectedly, the turning point came so quickly.
Looking at the cracked tiger's mouth, Luo Qingyang felt extremely unwilling. The Nine Songs Sword, which had been with him for many years, was now broken in two.
Orphaned at a young age, he could not win the heart of the one he loved. After finally reaching the pinnacle, he was always blocked by someone.
But faced with absolute power, no matter how unwilling one is, there is no way to resist.
Luo Qingyang laughed sharply, threw the broken sword aside, and stood up despite his injuries.
As aloof as ever.
"I am Luo Qingyang, what do you intend to do with me?"
If you're not as skilled, then kill me if you want!
I just want to know, who exactly did I lose to?
Are you really from heaven?
"Heh, that's natural. I am Bai Yujing, the immortal of the Azure Lotus Sword, Li Taibai! Today I will make sure you die knowing why."
Luo Qingyang was stunned for a moment, his brows furrowing tightly. The Azure Lotus Sword Immortal, Li Taibai?
That familiar feeling resurfaced.
Luo Qingyang felt like he had seen this person somewhere before, but he was certain that he had never seen this face before; it was truly bizarre.
"My lord, I am a disciple of the 73rd generation of Bai Yujing. On the first day of the Lunar New Year, I pay my respects to my master!"
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, he jumped off from above, his face filled with devout fervor, even bordering on madness.
This is an immortal from Baiyujing!
Within the sect, people constantly say that Baiyujing is a lineage of immortals, only abandoned by the immortals, but that future disciples must remember its past glory.
And now, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, we finally saw that light.
The celestial beings in the heavens finally deigned to look down upon them.
This is an opportunity, a tremendous opportunity, and we must seize it no matter what.
On the first day of the first lunar month, Fei, who had been standing upright, knelt down in front of Li Taibai, who raised an eyebrow.
"Oh? It seems my Baiyujing lineage isn't completely wiped out, but this strength..."
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, my heart skipped a beat, and a bitter smile appeared on my face.
With her strength, she could be considered a master in this mortal realm, but in front of this immortal, she was nothing at all.
"I am dull-witted and unworthy of being cultivated."
"You do have some self-awareness."
Lunar New Year's Day: ...
Are all the celestial beings in heaven so straightforward?
Seeing that Luo Qingyang remained silent on the first day of the Lunar New Year, Li Taibai sneered: "Luo Qingyang's strength is just ordinary, yet he has managed to gain such a great reputation in this mortal world, and his reputation is also like thunder in the higher realms."
You guys are really something, using my reputation as Bai Yujing to help others maintain their good name.
"Great, very good!"
Hearing these emotionless words on the first day of the Lunar New Year, he shuddered all over and almost collapsed to the ground, too afraid to move.
"Immortal Master, please forgive me! I deserve to die ten thousand times over."
When Xiao Se, Lei Wujie, and their companions arrived, they found the entire Qianjintai in a state of utter chaos.
Luo Qingyang was seriously injured, and he was swaying unsteadily even while standing.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, people prostrated themselves on the ground, while the mysterious swordsman stood with his sword on his back.
However, at this moment, Qingfeng and Mingyue suddenly jumped down from Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo respectively, at an extremely fast speed, almost turning into a blur.
Two rabbits appeared instantly in front of the swordsman, twitching their noses as if they were somewhat unsure.
Two rabbits tilted their heads back and circled the swordsman twice. The man named Li Taibai waved his finger, seemingly trying to shoo the two rabbits away.
Lei Wujie and Sikong Qianluo were startled.
"Gentle breeze and bright moon, come back!"
The two rabbits completely ignored them, seemingly confirming something.
Xiao Se's expression was somewhat strange as he looked at the swordsman, seemingly lost in thought.
He suspected that this person might be his unscrupulous master in disguise.
After all, his master was definitely one of the few people in the world who could easily defeat Luo Qingyang.
"Wow, it's so lively here!"
Isn't Qianjintai supposed to be a place for leisure?
