Chapter 1003 The Third Reason

Is Zhao Yuan going to fail?!
Fu Qingzhou's eyes widened instantly.

He didn't have time to think, and didn't even make a move to dismount from his horse. He just jumped up, turned into a beam of light, rushed into the city gate, and flew towards the imperial city!

"Not there!"

Si Yu quickly shouted, "He is at the Sword Academy!"

The green light in the air turned a corner.

Fu Qingzhou walked very quickly and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Ning Wushu didn't know Si Yu, but she recognized the Taoist nun's attire on her body, so she asked solemnly, "Is this my junior sister from Ziqi Xianfeng Temple? What happened? The emperor..."

"Let's talk on the way."

Si Yu's face was filled with anxiety: "If you have any ideas, you can think about it together... Master said that even she has no idea."

On the other side, Fu Qingzhou quickly rushed to the Sword Academy.

The capital city had experienced such chaos that the streets of the entire city were extremely quiet. There was no need for martial law at all. Almost few people dared to run around the streets at this time of year. The same was true for the Palm Sword Academy. It was extremely quiet and there were hardly any students to be seen.

But there were still people guarding the entrance of the academy.

Fu Qingzhou did not recognize the man, but the other party recognized him. When Fu Qingzhou landed at the entrance of the academy, the other party's eyes widened when he saw him and exclaimed, "Is it Fu... Hero Fu?"

Once these words were spoken, it could be basically concluded that this person was from the Xuan Alliance.

Fu Qingzhou is now in his early twenties and has experienced so many things. What he has done has long surpassed what people in the martial arts world do, but in the eyes of people in the martial arts world, he is always the "Young Master Fu" who has made a big name and accomplished countless great things in just two years.

Of course, now he can no longer be considered a young hero, but a great hero.

"it's me."

Fu Qingzhou said in a deep voice: "What's wrong with the emperor?"

"He was injured by Ning Wuwang." The Xuanmeng Jianghu people responded: "The leader and several seniors are treating him. They are..."

"No need, I know where they are."

Fu Qingzhou interrupted him: "Get ready to pick up my friends. I'll go there myself."

The Sword Academy is very small, and with his current perception, he can easily find out where those Cave Heaven Realm seniors are.

After saying that, he transformed into a beam of light again and rushed towards where the seniors were gathered.

In the alchemy room of the Sword Academy.

Led by Zhenren Baihe and Dong Qianran, a group of powerful men in the Cave Heaven Realm stood there, looking up at the huge alchemy furnace.

Zhao Yuan was suspended in the air above the alchemy furnace. The furnace was burning, and countless rays of light overflowed from the furnace, turning into streams of light and pouring into Zhao Yuan's body. The tremendous vitality contained in that light was amazing. Many Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses present had been seriously injured in the previous battle. At this moment, just by standing here and feeling the streams of light, their injuries in their bodies were already constantly repairing.

But... Zhao Yuan was like a water bottle with holes all over it. No matter how much water was poured into his body, it would all leak out.

He kept his eyes closed and his breath was barely moving.

"This is not the way to go."

Dong Qianran said in a deep voice: "In less than a day, almost all the treasures in the academy have been used up, and the treasures in the palace can't hold out for too long... Even with the addition of Mingjian Pavilion and Xuanmeng, they can't hold out for too long."

"This is what Ning Wuwang wants to do."

Baihe Zhenren said in a deep voice: "He wants to kill the emperor, but he doesn't kill him directly. Instead, he uses him to drag us down and consume us..."

The other Cave Heaven Realm experts around looked at each other, as if they wanted to say something, but no one spoke.

Finally, it was Changsun Jiansu who stood up.

"I am not from the Xuan League, nor even from Yan Country. Let me ask this question."

She asked softly, "Why can't we change someone else to be the emperor? If he is destined to die, why not just let him die like this?"

"No."

The one who answered her was Fu Qingzhou.

He came very quickly without concealing his aura, so the Cave Heaven Realm experts naturally sensed it, but their attention had been on Zhao Yuan before, and they just thought he was another expert of the same realm. After all, since he could easily enter and leave the capital without encountering any obstruction at this time, he must not be an enemy.

But I didn't expect it to be Fu Qingzhou. "It's you!"

Master Baihe looked back at him, his eyes shocked.

There were many people in the alchemy room who were surprised to see him - they were not like Changsun Jiansu, Dong Qianran and others, who had already met Fu Qingzhou in the north. To them, it was a miracle that he had disappeared for three years and his realm had suddenly risen after his return.

Master Jingming's breathing paused at first, but he soon smiled with relief.

"Qingzhou, you are finally back."

She said softly, "Thank you for your hard work."

"Uncle Master Jingming." Fu Qingzhou bowed slightly to her, then said with a complicated expression: "Uncle Master, he's gone."

Master Jingming was startled, but soon felt relieved: "So many things have happened, but that old guy hasn't made any move. I guessed it a long time ago... Alas, I originally thought that he could help with things here."

She said this, but still lowered her head and sighed softly.

Fu Qingzhou knew that now was not the time to talk about these things, so he turned his gaze back to Changsun Jiansu: "Palace Master Changsun, I will continue to answer your questions."

"Your Majesty... Zhao Yuan cannot die. At least not now."

"We just talked to Ning Wuwang not long ago. He refused to reveal the specific reasons why he turned to the Xishuo Army and the aristocratic family, but there are some things that can be speculated."

"First of all, around the Xuanmeng Ceremony three years ago, I could basically conclude that... the 'lord' standing behind King Xishuo and the noble families was the late emperor, or at least they thought that was the late emperor."

After saying this, Fu Qingzhou glanced at the people present, but did not see much surprise on their faces.

It seems that they have known all this more or less during these three years.

"For the time being, let's just treat our Lord as the late emperor."

Fu Qingzhou said in a deep voice: "A father, with his brothers and a group of former ministers, rebelled against his own son? How could such a thing happen in the world? I don't need to explain the strangeness of this matter. You should all know it in your hearts. There must be something on the emperor that our enemies want. If we let him die like this, the consequences will be unpredictable."

"Next, the second reason."

He raised his head and looked at Zhao Yuan above the alchemy furnace, his eyes slightly complicated: "What Ning Wuwang did to him already explains everything."

"Since he was able to injure the emperor so badly, it must have been possible to kill him, but he didn't."

"On one hand, you can kill but don't."

"On one side, there is a rebellion with a strange purpose."

"Before I figure out everything, I can only think that the emperor cannot die, nor can he be captured by them... This is my judgment."

Fu Qingzhou finished speaking.

The room fell silent, no one spoke, perhaps this was an agreement with his speculation.

After a while, Master Baihe spoke slowly.

"Your speculation is almost close to the truth."

She said softly: "In fact, a year ago, I sneaked into the Xishuo Palace and tried to assassinate the Xishuo King. Of course, I failed."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked!

"When did it happen?" Shangguan Xuan was stunned: "Alliance leader, how could you do such a dangerous thing! And you didn't tell us?!"

"It's in the past."

Baihe Zhenren smiled slightly, but soon became serious again: "That time, I saw it again... the ghost that appeared at the Xuanmeng Ceremony."

"Somehow, that time, it seemed to try to convince me."

"It tells me..."

"The emperor's body contains a spirit that does not belong to the Zhao family, a spirit of unknown origin. Not only that, this spirit... one day, will cause the greatest disaster in the world. It cannot be allowed to leave, and it cannot be allowed to exist. Therefore, they want to capture the emperor and let that ghost, that is, the lord..."

"Let it devour the soul in the emperor's body."
