Capital, outside the City.
At the moment, a large number of soldiers appeared at the city gate. The Five Armies Commander’s Mansion has already received the news, and sent elite forces to support the Imperial Carriage speedily.
Hongzhi saw Qin Gang standing in front of him and couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. He didn’t expect there to be an Innate Master in the palace. Could it be that the fate of Dayan is not yet finished?
For a short while, he was hindered by Qin Gang, and Mo Longqiang cooperated with him. He gradually felt that he was deep in the mire and couldn’t escape.
He looked at Emperor Kaiping who was getting further and further away from him, and there was regret in his heart. It seemed that the tyrant would escape again this time.
He dared to assassinate Emperor Kaiping because he knew that the eunuch master who contributed to the quelling of Prince Ping’an’s rebellion had fallen, and he had also made a breakthrough to the innate state, which is why Hongzhi made such a plan.
After the termination of Prince Ping’an’s Mansion’s rebellion, Jinshan Temple and Jinzhou City Liang Family were all implicated. After all, with Master Xuan Kong involved in the rebellion, how could they possibly stay out of it?
By the time the news of Prince Ping’an’s rebellion in the capital reached Jinzhou City, it was a bit late because Jinshan Temple was attacked that night, they did not know whether the No-Life Sect had lent a hand.
Hongzhi and others originally wanted to coexist with Jinshan Temple, but they didn’t expect that the Xuan Generation High Monks would drive them into the secret tunnel, thus narrowly escaping a disaster.
And that night, Jinshan Temple and Jinzhou City Liang Family were completely wiped out, and all the people related to the case were beheaded on the spot in Jinzhou City.
If the story developed normally, Hongzhi would have taken a few senior brothers to live in hiding and secretly pass on the inheritance of Jinshan Temple.
But things always have accidents. Because the incident happened suddenly, the scriptures in the Scripture Repository only left important scriptures for Hongzhi and others to revive Jinshan Temple in the future.
But one day when Hongzhi was sorting out the scriptures, he turned to the Unmoving Ming King Tathagata Sutra. The days of living in hiding were definitely hard, and Hongzhi would also recite the scriptures in his spare time.
He did not know if it was because of his extraordinary talent, but unwittingly, he also understood the Unmoving Ming King Seal like Liang Sheng back then.
Afterwards, Hongzhi practiced the Unmoving Ming King Seal until three years ago when he successfully broke through the third layer of the Unmoving Ming King Seal, and then his cultivation speed was astonishing.
A year ago, Hongzhi broke through to the realm of an Innate Master, and the Unmoving Ming King Seal began to be taught to other fellow brothers.
If Hongzhi hadn’t made a breakthrough to the innate state, he would have continued to live in obscurity and continue the inheritance of Jinshan Temple, but after breaking through to the innate state, how could he let go of the grudge of his sect being wiped out?
Especially for those who have taken the tonsure, once they have a fixation, if they do not eliminate it, it will become the demons in their heart. After the unanimous agreement of his fellow brothers, they went to the capital.
Until the opportunity of Emperor Kaiping’s heaven-worshiping ceremony, they created today’s situation. Everything was originally going according to his plan, but who knew that an Innate Master, Qin Gang, would show up halfway?
The internal energy of an Innate Master is endless, but under the cooperation of Qin Gang and the Imperial Army, he felt a faint insufficiency in recharging.
He must escape!
If he died here again, it would be meaningless, but how could he possibly escape with Qin Gang entangled with him?
Just then, Qin Gang’s face changed and he retreated swiftly, standing in front of Emperor Kaiping and shouting: “Protect His Majesty!”
Mo Longqiang was not sure of the situation, only to see Qin Gang on high alert. At this moment, he even saw a small sword appearing in Qin Gang’s hand.
Although he did not understand the current situation, he immediately commanded the Imperial Army to surround the imperial carriage cautiously.
Hongzhi also glanced in a certain direction, then without any hesitation, escaped into the deep mountain and old forest instantly, because the opportunity shouldn’t be missed and it won’t come again.
For a short while, the whole imperial procession was in chaos. It took quite a while for Qin Gang to regain his composure. The frightening Qi had already disappeared.
“Your Majesty, please return to the palace immediately.”
After Qin Gang was promoted to the innate state, Emperor Kaiping had never heard him use such a tone. He immediately headed back to the city without reprimanding the Imperial Army.
The citizens around also rushed back to the city like a swarm. Today’s sudden incident, I’m afraid, will spread throughout the capital soon.
Just who was the brave man who dared to assassinate Emperor Kaiping in public?
However, upon returning to the city, Old Zhang, who is always the source of information, was not in the mood for discussion. After thanking Liang Sheng, he bid his farewell and returned home. It seemed that he too was quite shocked by the day’s events. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Upon returning home, Liang Sheng sank into contemplation. He hadn’t expected to encounter Hongzhi in the Capital.
Today, the reason Qin Gang halted his attack abruptly was because he caught a trace of Liang Sheng’s Qi that slipped out in an instant and then disappeared.
It was impossible for the others to locate him from this fleeting Qi.
In addition, given the dire situation, there was no way Qin Gang could have thought it through. As expected, he got scared and ran away, allowing Hongzhi to escape. freew ebnove l.com
Although Liang Sheng had previously arranged for Liang Ying’s lineage, preserving the bloodline of the Liang family, after witnessing Hongzhi’s predicament today, he felt compelled to help.
By saving Hongzhi today, he fulfilled the promise he made during the time when he was not under threat, to help the Liang family bloodline.
As for what happens to Hongzhi in the future, it no longer matters to him. If Hongzhi fails to understand the situation and takes action, Liang Sheng would merely stand by and watch, since their cause and effect have already been severed today.
Over the next few days, the Capital was under scrutiny, day by day. The Five Armies Commander’s Mansion and Jingzhao Mansion practically turned the city upside down, but Liang Sheng was in no danger.
For a while, the entire Capital was in a state of unrest, with even ordinary people feeling the severe chill of early spring.
Under such circumstances, the No-Life Sect’s old Master entered Capital, and Liang Sheng, of course, kept his distance.
This time, Emperor Kaiping was accompanied by Qin Gang, while another individual was with the Master of the No-Life Sect. The No-Life Sect’s leader was now white-haired, indicating his lifespan was coming to an end.
“From this point on, he will command the No-Life Sect. It would be your first meeting, although it takes place under circumstances I did not anticipate.”
Emperor Kaiping glanced at the new No-Life Sect Leader and nodded slightly, not in the mood for pleasantries, given the horrific event related by Qin Gang.
Upon hearing Qin Gang’s experience, the previous No-Life Sect Master’s eyebrows furrowed in disbelief.
“Are you saying that this energy is so strong that it makes you tremble, just like the awe you felt when you saw your ancestor wielding the small sword?”
With a stern face, Qin Gang nodded. If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t have advised Emperor Kaiping to return to the Capital immediately as he wasn’t confident, even with the small sword in hand.
“How could it be? Unless there is a half-step magical weapon, how can an Innate Master have such power? Could it be…”
“I don’t know!”
Emperor Kaiping replied gravely. The atmosphere grew silent for a moment before the old No-Life Sect Master turned to the new one, “Ye Chen, go back first. Regardless of what happens to Capital, do not enter it.
Unless you receive news from the imperial palace in Capital stating absolute safety, you should not enter. No matter who asks you to visit, remember this, alright?”
Thirteenth Uncle…”
The new leader, Ye Chen, tried to protest, but was cut short by the old master. “I don’t have much time left. It’s better to stay in the palace. If the opponent is really that strong, I may be of some use. Perhaps I can last fifteen years to communicate with the other side.”
Emperor Kaiping was shocked. The elder actually had such little confidence in him?
However, when he heard the elder was staying, he exhaled in relief. After a few more warnings from both parties, the old master returned to the palace with Emperor Kaiping and Qin Gang while Ye Chen left.
Liang Sheng, in a place not far away, looked on in surprise.
Of course, he was very strong, strong enough that even Qin Gang holding the small sword was extremely cautious. The second time he encountered that mysterious small sword, he no longer felt threatened.
But, were they misunderstanding him?
That side?
Which side were they talking about?
The cultivation sects?
