Invincible and Lonely

Chapter 196 Invincible and Lonely

There was silence in the temple.

"Master Yankang has come with great power, and he has brought four of the Eight Pillars of the State, as well as the two great generals Guanjun and Huaihua, plus the Duke of Weiguo, and I'm afraid several first-rank officials are also among them. They are coming with great momentum. It is definitely impossible to confront them head-on."

Ma Lianshan, the Minister of the Grand Secretariat, said: "Please forgive me for being blunt, but in a battle between the martial arts world, the sect will win, and in a war on the battlefield, the Yankang Kingdom is even better. If that's the case, then why should we use our weaknesses to attack the other side's strengths? Why not use our strengths to attack the other side's weaknesses?"

Everyone nodded.

Palace Master Li Qing suddenly said, "This reminds me of the battle more than two hundred years ago. At that time, there were still many strong men in the combat skills school, and they were able to compete with the sword-controlling school and the magic school. At that time, the combat skills school and the sword-controlling school fought to the death every day, and the magic school fought to the death, which was really arrogant. But now, look at the combat skills school again, which masters are there? Where have they gone?"

Everyone fell silent.

Most of the masters of the martial arts school died in a debate with National Master Yankang.

From then on, the combat skills school never recovered. In recent years, the combat skills school has begun to merge with other schools, and there are very few schools that simply practice combat skills.

In that debate, the martial arts school was severely damaged by Imperial Master Yankang alone.

Palace Master Li Qing said calmly: "The situation back then is very similar to the current one. At that time, the fighting skills schools thought that I was the best in the world, and I would completely defeat the sword-controlling school in this debate. Many strong men from the fighting skills schools came to the capital to challenge the Yankang Imperial Master. Then what happened?"

She looked around and said, "If we follow the rules of martial arts this time with Imperial Master Yankang, will we end up in the same situation?"

The bronze masked man was silent for a moment, then asked, "What do you think, Palace Master Qiu?"

Palace Master Li Qing raised her hand and said, "Master Yan Kang thought we were following the rules of martial arts, but we won't follow the rules of martial arts. Let's first choose a place for him, and when he arrives, we will rush over and beat him to death!"

She cut her palm and said coldly: "Yankang State has grown from a small country to what it is today. Most of the credit lies with Yankang State Master. He is already a legend and is revered by the court officials. If he wants to rebel, he can just raise his arm and the emperor will have to abdicate! If the emperor does not abdicate, he will be killed and his clan will be exterminated! If Yankang State Master dies, there will be no leader, and Yankang State will no longer be difficult to deal with. Therefore, we must use any means necessary and cannot follow the rules of the underworld."

"This...Palace Master Qiu is right."

All the leaders in Luoguang Temple expressed their agreement. Only a few felt that this move violated the rules of the martial arts world and felt a little uncomfortable, but they did not speak out against it.

The siege of Imperial Master Yankang and the ambush of Imperial Master Yankang by the three elders last time. When the three elders ambushed Imperial Master Yankang, Imperial Master Yankang was in the midst of thousands of troops and surrounded by countless strong men, so the three elders' action that time did not break the rules of the martial arts world.

This time, the rules of the underworld were literally torn apart and trampled underfoot.

"Once this move is made, the rules will be broken and the consequences will last for thousands of years."

Taoist Master Daoquan shook his head secretly: "They brought the court's unruly fighting style to the martial arts world. I'm afraid the martial arts world of the past can never go back."

In Yuncheng, Qin Mu did the same thing again and "cured" the illness of Yankang's national teacher. When he arrived at Shancheng, he "cured" the illness again. The armies advanced in unison and had already reached the front of Daxiang, conquering cities and plundering land along the way.

The south has many mountains and rivers, but without the natural barrier of Yongjiang River, it would be difficult to stop Yankang's army.

Qin Mu summoned the Demon King of Dutian and broke through Tianbo City, a strategic location built on a natural moat, which really helped Yankang State a lot. It's a pity that he couldn't take credit for this achievement.

On the fifth day, Qin Mu and others arrived at Yuecheng, which had already been conquered.

As they walked into the city, they saw an old beggar with ragged clothes full of patches, holding a broken bowl and leaning on a cane, walking up to them. Monk Yunque hurriedly searched his body to see if he had any change. Hu Ling'er took out a Dafeng coin and handed it to Yunque. Yunque thanked him and put it in the old beggar's bowl.

The old beggar shook the broken bowl, making a clattering sound, and grinned, "You are all kind-hearted people, may you have many children and grandchildren, and may you be blessed and noble. Imperial Master, please go to Daxiang for a while. In Daxiang City, on the second road, all the heroes in the world will gather together to welcome you, Imperial Master!"

Imperial Master Yankang glanced at him and said calmly, "Why can't we wait a few more days? If we wait a few more days, my army can march to Dali, and we can meet the so-called heroes of the world in Dali, and throw their bodies into the South China Sea to feed the fish, so as not to bury them. Wouldn't that be a pleasure?"

The old beggar laughed loudly, and the sound of a door opening came from his body, which sounded seven times in succession. His momentum soared, his cultivation was extremely powerful, and his demeanor was like that of a high god looking down on all living beings, as if he was not a person who could only survive by charity, but a god who gave charity to all living beings and was worshipped by all living beings!

"The Imperial Master is as ambitious as ever. Daxiang City, we are waiting for your arrival!"

He was about to leave when he suddenly heard a voice saying, "Wait a minute."

The old beggar stopped and turned to look at Qin Mu in confusion.

Qin Mu's face was calm and he said softly, "Ling'er, take the money back. They are much richer than us."

Hu Ling'er hurried forward and picked out the Dafeng coin from the broken bowl. The old beggar said angrily: "You have the nerve to take back the money you gave to a beggar? You are not a good man! You are not a good man!"

"A stinking beggar is still swearing!"

Hu Ling'er turned around and asked, "Sir, what does it mean to not be a son?"

Qin Mu said: "Rong is the eighth-generation grandson. Not being a Rongzi means that you are not worthy of being his eighth-generation Rong grandson."

"Sure enough!"

Hu Ling'er was furious and spat in the old beggar's face. The old beggar didn't hide either, but laughed and said, "Little fox, you're dead if you mess with a beggar." After that, he flew away into the air.

Hu Ling'er spat: "You cheated me out of my money and cursed me. You are not worthy of being a son!"

Yankang Imperial Master said, "You need to be careful. That is Qi Dayou, the leader of the Beggar Sect. The Beggar Sect is always stingy and proficient in evil magic. If they are not willing to part with money, they will go to the store to make trouble, or use evil magic to harm people, ruining other people's business, and scold you behind your back, and even steal people's children and sell them. The Heavenly Demon Sect has the Beggar Hall, and they have fought bloody battles with the Beggar Sect several times. However, the Beggar Hall only begs for food and does not do many evil things. Instead, they have been framed by the Beggar Sect for many things."

Qin Mu blinked and smiled, "Master, we are not too far from Daxiang now. It is enough to send us here. We should go back to the Imperial Academy."

Imperial Master Yankang said expressionlessly: "No, you must go to Daxiang with me."

Qin Mu was overwhelmed. After everyone had settled down, he immediately went out alone to a gambling house in Yuecheng, found the owner of the gambling house, and said, "Pass my order and ask the head of the 360th hall of the Holy Church to come with the transmission flag..."

"Wait a minute!"

Si Yunxiang's voice came from behind Qin Mu. Qin Mu turned around and saw Si Yunxiang approaching. Her shyness disappeared without a trace. She said coldly, "Holy Master, if you do this, my Holy Church will also be in danger. If anything goes wrong with my Holy Church, who will be responsible?"

Qin Mu turned around and said calmly: "Saint, I am the leader."

Si Yunxiang smiled sweetly and said, "Saint Lady Si Yunxiang greets the leader."

Her face turned cold: "If the leader asks my Holy Church to help Imperial Master Yankang, no matter whether Imperial Master Yankang wins or loses, my Holy Church will lose its reputation in the martial arts world, be ridiculed and hated by other sects, and have no place to stand!"

Qin Mu shook his head and said, "The Holy Church was originally the Heavenly Demon Church. How can there be any reputation? Others will not give you any foothold. A foothold has always been something you have to fight for. This is a rare opportunity. If the Holy Church does not participate, then there will really be no foothold."

Si Yunxiang protested, "What if Imperial Master Yan Kang, after pacifying the sects throughout the world, attacks our Tiansheng Sect? Can you afford it?"

Qin Mu glanced at her and said, "I'll take care of it."

Si Yunxiang's expression changed again, and she suddenly smiled and said, "You are the leader, so naturally you make the decision. Yunxiang cannot say more. But if the Saint Leader makes a mistake and puts our Saint Church in danger, you might be the second Saint Leader to be killed by the Saint Girl."

Qin Mu frowned. The position of the Holy Leader of the Heavenly Demon Cult was indeed a dangerous one. He could be beaten to death for his immoral behavior at any time.

Si Yunxiang said shyly: "The previous Saint Patriarch died because of his lust, and this Saint Patriarch was beaten to death by the Saint Girl. Neither of them has a good reputation."

Qin Mu shook his head and waved his hand, saying, "Saintess, you can leave now. Pass my order, have the 360th hall master come immediately with the teleportation flag! Also invite two guardians!"

The gambling house owner bowed and said, "I obey the master's order!"

Qin Mu walked out of the gambling house. Si Yunxiang was standing outside the gambling house. When she saw him coming out, she laughed softly and said, "Beat him to death..."

Qin Mu glared at her and walked forward: "Will you follow me?"

Si Yunxiang hurriedly followed him, rolling her eyes twice, "Master, should we not put the Great Breeding Heavenly Demon Sutra in the sect first, so that it won't be lost after the master dies?"

Qin Mu stopped, turned around, and said seriously: "Sister, you are not my opponent yet. If I really make a mistake in judgment, you will only be killed by me if you come to kill me. You..."

He used his energy to draw a triangle in the air, drew a straight line in the middle, and said, "This is you."

He drew another straight line in the air: "This is me! No matter how big your angle is, it's not as long as mine!"

The sword box behind Si Yunxiang was ready to move. There was a ding-dong sound coming from inside. She smiled sweetly and said, "How do you know if you don't try?"

Qin Mu put his hands behind his back and walked forward: "No need to try. No one can be my opponent in the same realm. Not you, not the Imperial Master."

He stopped, looked up at the sky, and said dejectedly: "I am a tyrant."

Qin Mu lowered his head and sighed: "The only tyrant in the world..."

Si Yunxiang was stunned and wanted to take action, but was somewhat intimidated by his aura.

It was an invincible and lonely aura.

"Tyrant body? What kind of body is that? Is it stronger than the four great spirit bodies?"

She thought to herself, "Could it be that the Grandmaster chose him as the leader instead of me just because he has a tyrant body?"
