Chapter 45: Building up the team
“What? Gu-Chensha killed the Ever Handsome Yingyang again? Sent the body and the memorial over?”
Dedicated to the Xian Dynasty Qinzha Post, Luo Baiyue heard the news again and rose to her feet.
This Qinzha Post Station was built with majestic grandeur, and was the side hall of the original Xian Dynasty Palace. Even though this was the capital of the Xian Dynasty more than a decade ago, it was still prosperous due to the opening of the canal, and the commercial traffic was ten times more prosperous than the Xian Dynasty at its peak.
The entire Xianzhou is bordered by the barbarian wilderness, and the barbarian wilderness has not only barbarians, but also countless exotic treasures, which generates many adventurers who go to the barbarian wilderness to obtain treasures and trade here, and with a little luck, make a single business and live a rich life for the rest of their lives.
“Yes, the corpse is now in the Governor's Mansion, and the Third Highness is also checking it.” Yuxiang was reporting on the matter.
“Where is Gu-Chensha?” Luo Baiyue asked as he got up.
“He is still in Banan province, but not in the capital of the province, but in a town not far from Taoxian County, which is inhabited by many people and he cannot retreat from for the time being, he stays there to resist the attacks of the barbarians and evil cultists.” Yuxiang got the information right.
“This guy is so compassionate that he dares to risk his life, pity the people in those towns, they can't escape at all, they can only choose to resist, but how long can they sustain?” Luo Baiyue shook his head as he walked and said: “Did you find out if the Xian Dynasty remnant is close to him yet?”
“No, we have an undercover agent on the Xian Dynasty remnant side, the message that was passed on was that Chen-Jianfeng had personally approached His Highness Nineteenth, but there was no follow up, and not much else as our undercover agent is having trouble getting to the core of the Xian Dynasty remnant. “ Yuxiang followed behind to pick up all the information important to tell.
After about a column of walking time, Luo Baiyue arrived at the next governor's house, and when she entered, she heard a voice taunting someone saying: “You've brought a thousand people here, and you're still asking for the Imperial court’s Jue Dragon armor and fire talisman gun, and you've even cultivated yourself into the Dao Realm, and you've been here for a few days, and you haven't achieved an inch of success. Nineteenth Lao has killed the Fiend Bat, the Ever Handsome Yingyang, this kind of credit can be crowned even if he lose Banan province he won’t be punished or demoted.”
“Damn it, Third Lao, are you deliberately trying to annoy me!” the Tenth Prince Gu-Zhensha's yell shook the palace and said: “In that case, I'll do something amazing for you to see.”
“Lao Tenth you are here too? What are you guys arguing about?” When Luo Baiyue walked in, she saw the Ever Handsome Yingyang's body lying on the wooden board.
The Tenth Prince Gu-Zhensha saw Luo Baiyue enter, and immediately stopped yelling, his eyes were very heavy, he already knew that Luo Baiyue had the “as if I were there” token, which was equal to the Great Skyseal Earthly presence’s token. He already knew that Luo Baiyue had the token of “as if I were here”, and if he took it out, it would be the same as the Great Skyseal Emperor's words, even if he was untamed, he could only kneel down and obey.
He doesn't understand why the Great Skyseal Emperor trusts Luo Baiyue so much.
Of course, he also knew that Luo Baiyue was truly loyal to the Great Skyseal Emperor, and that the Great Emperor favored her above many princes.
“Baiyue, come and see, this is the Ever Handsome Yingyang, he had reached the Dao Realm Second Transformation, he was actually killed by Nineteenth Lao.” The Third Prince Gu-Fansha was all smiles and said: “The body will be transported back to the capital later, you identify it.”
“This is Indeed the Ever Handsome Yingyang, this Joyful Yin-Yang Kung Fu is also authentic, this demon is at least ninety years old, but is still so young, all thanks to this power.” Luo Baiyue examined it carefully and finally decided and said: “I will write a secret fold to the emperor on this matter, and you will report it truthfully as well.”
“It's natural, and I wouldn't dare do anything to deceive the Emperor.” the Third Prince Gu-Fansha restrained his smile and said: “the Black Fiend Bat, the Ever Handsome Yingyang these old demons are highly skilled in martial arts, and they are making trouble everywhere, the average provincial city the Governor can't resist and is going to be assassinated, now that two of them are dead save me much thought. Lao Tenth, according to my information, in the That three-county land also has a few old friends, like the Hundred Poisons Daoist, the Spirit Blood Founder, which is up to you, and their fix is the First Transformation, the Second Transformation. With your cultivation you can completely kill them. I can tell that you've practiced a strange skill.”
the Tenth Prince Gu-Zhensha's eyes stern up, and his mind snickers and said: “Sure enough, after the news of my promotion to the Dao Realm spread, First Lao, Second Lao, Third Lao, the Seventh Prince all paid attention, prying into my secrets, but unfortunately behind me is the Dao of Witchcraft, and I am practicing the Ancestral Witch Scriptures, even if I am only comprehending one ten-thousandth of it now. Are my skin and hair are far from being comparable to yours.”
“Lao Tenth, I know you want to be crowned a Regional Prince but this is your chance to make a merit, and also the emperor has the intention of testing many princes in this expedition, and whoever has the most merit afterwards will be rewarded with the Nine Revolutions of Life and Death Immortal Pill.” Luo Baiyue said intentionally and said: “For now, Luo Nineteenth has the most credit.”
“What's killing two old devils mean?” Gu-Zhensha turns and walks away and said: “I will bring you the head of the Barbarian tribe God envoy Ku Qiata, I know that the real person behind the reason why the three counties are surly is this divine messenger, he has reached the Dao Realm Seventh Transformation Levitate and Soar, which is what makes Third Lao so concerned.”
Seeing Gu-Zhensha's departing back, the Third Prince Gu-Fansha said to Luo Baiyue and said: “This person Lao Tenth is coarse on the surface, but in reality he is fine and cunning inside, and cannot be trifled with.”
“Lao Tenth did practice a marvelous skill, and I sensed from him that there was a competition of things, the survival of the fittest, against the law of helping the weak, no ritual, no benevolence, no morality, naked past the breath of the flood and the ancient world, which was the lost way.” Luo Baiyue frowned.
“The past is the past, the times do not belong to him.” The Third Prince Gu-Fansha speaks words full of meaning.
Inside the town.
Swords and shadows fly, Gu-Chensha is still more than capable of defeating five, he was using an ordinary longsword against five ancient swords that slice iron and cut gold and jade.
“The Five Seasons Bloom, Longer Hot Season!”
Suddenly, the five unleashed their combined sword qi, the essence dazzling, as if the spring rain was lingering, the summer thunder booming, the hot sun blazing, the autumn frost descending, the winter snow chilling.
The Ancient Five Seasons Dao attacked and killed, the sword formation was fierce, and all around were whirlwinds and cracks created by the sword cutting air currents.
And Gu-Chensha's sword demon in his palm illusory seemed to disappear and appear again, striking in the air with the majesty of ruling the world.
This strike seems to contain a million changes, like the vault of heaven above adjusting the timing of heaven, to set things right, irresistible, the sword has reached the end of heaven, the end of emptiness, the end of thought.
Dang, dang, dang, dang!
Five sounds and all five swords fell to the ground.
“Your Highness Nineteenth is truly a miracle worker, using an ordinary longsword to break our Five Seasons Sword Formation.” Liu Yu picked the swords up off the ground and pondered the match that had just taken place.
Gu-Chensha came out of the Taoxian County Temple and returned to the town again to find a way to protect the thousands of people while improving the martial arts of those five people.
That's all there is to do right now, it's good to die defending this place and be able to improve one of their martial arts.
The names of those five people are Liu Yu, Mo Chao, Jia Liang, Qian Zhen, and Zhou Bu.
Gu-Chensha killed the Ever Handsome Yingyang and seized the money and pills in the treasure vault, which can be said to have dealt a severe blow to the barbarians' momentum and plans, the key is that the barbarian experts do not know how their people die, they will definitely have to search, their hearts are on tenterhooks, and they will not attack for a short time, taking this little bit of time is just the right time to find a way to defuse the immediate situation.
These five people get a strange encounter, I'm afraid in the future itself are all a bit lucky, found by other noble families are trying their best to recruit, Gu-Chensha naturally put more effort.
“After taking the Heavenly Dew, you have already unclogged your meridians and cultivated your vitality, at least worth ten years of hard training, in time, you will be able to step into the Martial Dao Grandmaster realm, but the strange thing is that there is not a single impurity in your body, it is as pure as beautiful jade, what is the situation? “ Gu-Chensha found many strange things about the five of them.
“When the five of us questing to visit the world encountered these five seasons of swordsmanship, we were cleansed of the marrow and hair by the strange power left behind by our inheritors, and our five ancient swords also have the ability to absorb impurities from our bodies and swallow aura.” Liu Yu didn't hide it either and said: “That inheritance's legacy says that if we cultivate to an extremely high level, these five ancient swords can even merge into our bodies and turn into the Immortal Flying Sword.”
“Yes?” Gu-Chensha frowned and said: “Can I see it?”
“Nineteenth Master please see.” Liu Yu handed the sword over.
Gu-Chensha holds the sword for a moment, feeling only a slight flow of air permeating the sword into his pores, circulating up and down, and then flowing into the sword, both sides forming a subtle cycle.
The man feeds the sword, the sword feeds the man.
This sword, roughly speaking, is a strange ancient style, unusually sharp, and nothing else, but after holding it, it feels different, there seems to be dense talismans surging in the body of the sword, which can absorb the essence of the person, and then feedback back, both sides can be benefited.”
“It's fantastic!” Gu-Chensha observed for a moment and returned the sword to Liu Yu and said: “Have you been feeling more and more agile with the sword lately?”
“How does the Nineteenth Master know?” Liu Yu was very surprised.
“That's right, you've recently taken the Heavenly Dew, and the body's essence is thick, when practicing the sword that essence will enter the sword, making the sword also get nourished, at the same time the sword will also send sword Qi into your body, mutual nourishment. It is the same as people dish play beautiful jade, people nourish jade, jade nourishes people, this sword is really wonderful, can enhance physical strength, ordinary people continuously practice the sword for several hours will be tired, must rest, and take this sword to cultivate, even if you practice for several days and nights will not be tired, and more and more spiritual, provided you have enough elixir.” Gu-Chensha thought about it and said: “It seems that your future achievements are tremendous, in that case, I will simply help you out one more time, starting from today, increase the intensity of your sword training and give each of you three more drops of the Heavenly Dew.”
Three drops of the Heavenly Dew could make Martial Dao Grandmaster go a year without eating or drinking with daily martial arts practice and still roll with energy.
“Many thanks to the Nineteenth Master!” The five kneel down again, they are very smart and know what this means, a drop of the Heavenly Dew translates into money that I'm afraid the entire town combined can't compare to.
“Remember, the more essence you have, the more stern your swords will be raised, your five swords are immortal soldiers and need to be fed by human essence, with time, I'm afraid this sword will be even more powerful.” Gu-Chensha cautioned curtly.
He took out the Heavenly Dew and poured out three drops each.
“You actually have the Heavenly Dew.” A woman's voice is heard, and there is one more person in the courtyard.
Liu Yu along with the four others were taken aback and raised their swords to defend themselves.
“Slow down, the visitor is a friend.” Gu-Chensha waves his hand to stop him, he has seen that it is Long Yuyun.
