The Great Martial Saint!

"Chen Ping'an refused to accept the order, and Qi Guangshan's cultivation was abolished!? Why is such an important matter reported only now?"

Ning Zhengyue had a dignified look on his face, and he looked at the letter in his hand calmly and steadily.

The elite soldier from the Provincial Pacification Office who was standing in front of him to report the situation suddenly broke out in a cold sweat on his back and fell to his knees.

"Please forgive me, sir. I uploaded the report as soon as I received the news. I have no intention of slacking off!"

Ning Zhengyue glanced at him and frowned.

"I said before, there is only one chief in the State Pacification Office!"

"I was careless and said something wrong in a moment of anxiety. Please forgive me, Mr. Deputy Director!"

"Get up!"

"Thank you for your grace, Deputy Director. I will keep it in mind and never make the same mistake again!"

Ning Zhengyue didn't say anything. Looking at the letter in his hand, his brows did not relax, but instead became even tighter.

"Chen Ping'an is short-sighted and doesn't understand the overall situation! He regards the authority of the Pacification Office as nothing and is useless!"

If he had not considered the influence of the Gu family, he would have already ordered the capture of this boy and put him in the dungeon of the Fusi to await his fate!
"Inform all the lords that the matter of Chen Ping'an refusing the order will be specially reviewed at 3 pm today!"

"Yes, Mr. Deputy Director!"

The news that Chen Ping'an refused the order and dismissed the Canglong special envoy Qi Guangshan soon spread among the major families.

Canglong Xue family.

"What a Mang Dao, what a Chen Pingan! They are so fearless!"

"It's just self-destruction!"

"It would have been fine if he refused to accept the order from the State Pacification Office, but he actually didn't know his place and dismissed Qi Guangshan!?"

"I don't know what Qi Guangshan is doing to piss him off! With such an effect, it's really worth the money! It's a pity that Qi Guangshan probably can't enjoy it!"

"Come to think of it, has Chen Ping'an's strength reached this point? Although Qi Guangshan is not yet a Grandmaster, his combat power should not be underestimated!"

"No problem, no problem! No matter how strong Chen Ping'an is, if he behaves like this, the Gu family may not be able to protect him!"

"That's true! As long as you haven't reached the level of Grandmaster, no matter how talented you are, you are still just a junior after all!"

"Given his current character, it's unlikely that he will become a Grandmaster in the next twenty years."

"Hahaha, after all his planning, he ended up being worse than his own stupidity!"

"Wait for the right opportunity. When the time comes, the overall situation of Northern Cang will be decided by Kunsheng!"

"I didn't expect that the great cause of Northern Cang would eventually fall on my Xue family!"

"It's the general trend. The Gu family can't fight back even if they want to!"

"Mang Dao, Mang Dao, this word Mang is really wonderful!"

"."

The Canglong King's family.

"The Xue family got the upper hand this time!"

"This Mang Dao made a fool of himself and ruined a good situation! I wonder what the Gu family thinks about this!?"

"This matter was originally handled lightly, and I thought this opportunity had passed. Who would have thought that he could not tolerate such a small humiliation! And he revealed such a big flaw!"

"It's a battle of wills among young men. No matter how strong Mang Dao is, and how powerful he is, he is still just a young man after all!"

"Hahaha, how sad and lamentable!"

"People born in the countryside are like this. They have fighting ability but no character. Once their status is slightly promoted, they don't know who they are!"

"Mang Dao is not as mature as Si Yuan after all!"

"That's right! There's still a lot of time. Looking through history books, there are many examples of people starting out strong and seemingly soaring to the sky, but in fact their potential was overdrawn!"

"Hey, everyone, don't be so optimistic! Mang Dao's talent should not be underestimated!"

"Yes, I agree. We should be more cautious! This boy's talent is still higher than Siyuan's after all!"

"My fellow elders, please don't encourage others. Siyuan has already started to try to break through the realm. It is still unknown who will have the last laugh! The martial arts are not about a short period of time."

"Hahaha, that's right! Previously, Ling Zhi broke through the realm and became a Grandmaster. Now, if Siyuan breaks through the realm and enters Yuheng, it will be a blessing from heaven for our Wang family! Our fortune will flourish and our family will be glorious. Nothing could be better than this!"

"I hope Siyuan can break through the demons in his heart, condense the spiritual flower, and add another backbone to the family!"

"."

In addition to the three major families in Canglong, some powerful family gangs in Canglongzhou City are also concerned about the affairs of Mangdao Chen Pingan.

Recently in Canglong Province, Chen Pingan has become quite influential. For forces like them, although they have never met him, he is already considered a semi-acquaintance.

In addition, the Gu family's intention to win over Chen Pingan was clearly visible, and they had continuously provided a lot of support. In their eyes, Chen Pingan had already been labeled as a member of the Gu family.

With a noble family background, natural talent and intelligence, coupled with his status in the Pacification Division, such a person is much more important than the average independent master.

In such circumstances, they naturally need to pay more attention.

It is rumored that the Gu family intends to marry off their daughter for an alliance, but no one knows which core daughter will marry the Rough Blade Chen Pingan?
Many forces are quite curious about this.

In addition, when Mang Dao Chen Ping'an refused the order and abolished the cultivation of Canglong Special Envoy, would the Gu family's thoughts change?

Especially regarding this matter, they are extremely curious!

If the Gu family is not saved and such a serious mistake is made, even if Chen Ping'an, the Rough Blade, is extremely talented and is hailed as a rising star in the State Pacification Office, the accountability he deserves will never be light!

Even if the Gu family tried their best to protect him, Chen Pingan would still be in trouble!

The iron-faced and impartial nature of Ning Zhengyue, the Master of Five Thunders, is widely acknowledged! Even though he was concerned about the Gu family, this matter had a huge impact, and the handling of it would definitely not be light.

In the Xue family's incense pavilion, Xue Zirou had her purple hair draped over her shoulders, falling like a waterfall. She had just finished her practice for the day and heard the news from the clan elder.

"Destroy a false master?"

In certain circumstances, it may be more difficult to disable a person than to kill him.

"Dragon Tiger No. 9, is Chen Pingan really that strong?"

There was a hint of curiosity in Xue Zirou's eyes.

She became more and more curious about Chen Pingan.

Canglong County, as the central capital of Canglong Province, naturally has a political status that is unmatched by other counties. In addition, Canglong County has a vast territory and is the largest of the 37 counties in Canglong.

The area of ​​Canglong County is more than five times that of Weishui County. There are hundreds of cities, large and small, in the county.

As the core of a state, Canglong County has a prosperous business. In addition to the trade within the state, there is an endless stream of merchant caravans from other states outside the northern border, such as Yanlie State and Xuanling State, exchanging what they have with each other.

Canglongzhou borders Yanliezhou, Xuanlingzhou and other states. Going south through the Canglong Mountains, it is the Qinglingzhou in the southern border, and its position is extremely favorable. In terms of geographical location alone, it ranks among the top states in the northern border.

A caravan was traveling on an official road in Canglong County leading to Canglongzhou City. The caravan was quite large, with hundreds of carriages carrying a variety of goods. On both sides of the caravan, there were guards, each with a weapon on his waist and sharp eyes.

The most eye-catching thing in the caravan is the flag fluttering in the wind.

Ruyi Commercial Bank!

The largest trading company in Canglongzhou!
Some people may not be familiar with Ruyi Commercial Bank, but if we talk about one of the businesses under Ruyi Commercial Bank, Ruyi Treasure Pavilion, then basically everyone in Canglong State knows about it.

Although the scale of Ruyi Commercial Bank is not as large as Qinglingzhou Tongbao Commercial Bank, it also does business in the entire northern border. Even in the North Sea, you can see the presence of Ruyi Commercial Bank.

However, in this caravan, in addition to the flag of Ruyi Trading Company, there was also a flag of the Mu family.

The Canglong Mu family is one of the owners behind the Ruyi Business. Although their share in the Ruyi Business is not large, they are also the absolute first-tier power in Canglong Prefecture. Among the forces below the three major Canglong families, the Canglong Mu family can occupy a place.

In the category of aristocratic families, it is second only to the three major Canglong families!

The caravan had hundreds of carriages, but not all of them were loaded with goods. Some were used for rotation and rest. After all, when traveling outside, the mind was highly tense for a long time, and even martial arts practitioners might not be able to bear it.

Proper relaxation is still necessary.

In an open carriage at the end of the caravan, a young man was lying comfortably, his hands resting on his pillow, looking relaxed and at ease.

The guards around him cast envious glances at him from time to time, secretly wondering how this young man was so lucky to be able to talk to the young lady.

Among all the envy, there was also a small amount of jealousy, resentment in their hearts, wondering in their hearts, how is this young man who lies in the carriage all day long with a leisurely look better than them! ?

They guarded along the way, vigilant all the way, and highly focused. When they finally took turns to rest, only a few people squeezed into one carriage. How could this young man, who did nothing, have a carriage all to himself! ?
Not far away, two guards were walking side by side.

One of the dark-faced guys narrowed his eyes and whispered to his companion beside him.

"Hey, Fatty, do you think the young lady is interested in him?"

"How could that be? What kind of taste do you have, young lady? How could you fall for him? You're overthinking." Big Fat said with his eyes wide open.

"That's hard to say. This is the first time the young lady goes out to do business, maybe she likes this style." The black-faced young man glanced at the carriage not far away and said thoughtfully.

Hearing this, Big Fatty snorted, "Don't make blind guesses. Be careful if the steward hears you, or you'll be punished to feed the horses!"

As the two talked, they unconsciously glanced at the young man a few times, each of them had their own thoughts, pondering secretly.

Chen Pingan lay in the carriage and ignored the two. Although the two people's voices were low, in front of him, it was as if they were speaking into his ears.

More than half a month has passed since the battle.

These days, Chen Pingan mainly did two things. One was to recover from his injuries, mainly in terms of his spirituality. The second was to practice the Wandering Dragon Body Technique. However, since he needed to spend some time to nourish his spirituality and recover from his injuries, his progress in practicing the Wandering Dragon Body Technique was inevitably affected.

This is also the main reason why he appeared here.

There is not much time left for cultivation. If one uses it to travel, the progress of cultivation will be greatly reduced.

When he passed through Chiyang County, he happened to meet this caravan. Although there were top masters in the caravan, the leaders were actually a pair of siblings.

Mu Qingyao and Mu Chenjie.

The elder brother, Mu Chenjie, is a direct descendant of the Mu family and a prodigy on the rookie list. At the age of 29, he is already a master of the Xuanguan realm.

My younger sister Mu Qingyao has entered the Inner Qi realm at the age of 20. Judging from her potential, she is also expected to be on the Rookie List in the future.

The final destination of the caravan was also Canglongzhou City. By chance, Chen Pingan followed the caravan along.

Traveling with the caravan, Chen Ping'an's previously slow practice improved a lot.

Chen Pingan slowly opened his eyes, and a golden finger panel that only he could see appeared in front of him.

Name: Chen Pingan
Realm: Yuheng middle stage - Spiritual fruit prototype
Martial Arts: Mastery of the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique (0/3200), Mastery of the Wandering Dragon Body Technique (975/1600), Mastery of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, Mastery of the Dragon Elephant Hegemon Body Technique, Mastery of the Three-Point Human Tribulation Finger, Mastery of the Soul-Breaking Knife
"975 points!"

His cultivation had been slow before, but starting today, there was no problem. His spiritual injuries had basically recovered, and the time he used to nourish his spirituality and recover from his injuries could be used to cultivate again.

Chen Ping'an's eyes flashed, and the golden finger panel in front of him disappeared again.

"I can't afford to be hurt! I really can't afford to be hurt!" Chen Pingan felt helpless and smiled bitterly to himself.

This was a thrilling, all-out battle, but the aftermath was too painful.

If it weren't for the delay caused by his recovery from injuries, based on his previous training speed, he would have almost perfected the Dragon Swimming Technique by now.

This life-and-death battle consumed too much energy. In addition to the injuries, the spirituality of the Black Ice Silk Armor was greatly damaged, and its value plummeted.

No wonder there were rumors before that a master fighter, after fighting with all his might, suffered a great loss of combat power and a sharp drop in financial resources.

First of all, if the guardian items are damaged, it will directly affect the combat effectiveness. Even if they are not damaged, but have suffered some wear and tear, it will cost a lot of money to repair them.

In addition, the Yuan Zeng Bao Dan and Jing Xue Da Dan used in fierce battles are all consumables. Since they are consumables, they all cost money to replenish!
Secondly, if you have any injuries, not only will your cultivation be delayed, but you will also have to spend a lot of money to recover. If you use some explosive secret skills during a fierce battle, you will have to buy natural treasures, spend time, energy, and effort to recuperate your own foundation.

All of the above are bloody lessons!

The reason why Chen Pingan was able to recover his spirituality so quickly was mainly because he took the Soul-Enriching Pill to nourish his spirituality. Otherwise, given the severity of his injuries, he would not have recovered without a few months of recuperation.

As a result, he used up a small half of the bottle of Soul-Nourishing Pill he had on him.

Speaking of which, this bottle of Soul-Enriching Pill was originally obtained from Situ Ba. In the battle of the Ten Thousand Demons Blood Pond, all parties fought fiercely, and he was the one who finally got the chance. Chen Pingan still had a certain good impression of Situ Ba.

If there is a chance in the future, I can take care of his descendants.

Situ Ba is the core elder of the Situ family. The Situ family is also one of the top families in Canglong Province, and its power is not much different from that of the Canglong Mu family.

In a word, the words "warmongering" and "aggression" are also applicable to martial arts!
However, there are exceptions to everything. Although a life-and-death battle is extremely risky, if it can be successful, the rewards will also be extremely high.

For example, the insights and breakthroughs gained during a life-and-death battle.

There is great terror between life and death, which often inspires people's potential. Although breakthroughs during battle are not common, they do happen occasionally.

For example, in this case, Chen Pingan made a lot of money after a fierce battle, his wealth skyrocketed, and he became unprecedentedly rich.

Old Man Qi Jue has been teaching the younger generation in the Tianluo Sect, cultivating their character and accumulating wealth for many years. His wealth is probably no less than that of a grand master with a weaker foundation.

Three magical weapons, many natural treasures, the inheritance of the Seven Wonders of the Magical Arts, and many other things. Chen Pingan simply calculated that the value was no less than 20,000 crystals.

His actual net worth might be much higher than he estimated.

Thanks to the accumulation of the Seventh Absolute Elder, Chen Ping'an's current wealth has exceeded the 40,000 yuan mark. Nearly 10,000 yuan of it is pure cash flow, and the rest is magic weapons and some natural treasures and elixirs that can be sold. For example, the value of the Seventh Absolute Divine Art inheritance is mainly theoretical, and in fact it is mainly for his own use.

This is also a problem that almost all martial arts practitioners will face, that is, just because one's wealth belongs to one's wealth, it does not mean that all of it can be used for consumption. What can actually be purchased and sold is often only a portion of one's wealth.

The reason why Chen Pingan was able to accumulate wealth so quickly was that he often made gains and he did not need precious pills or elixirs to practice. He also needed auxiliary materials and main materials to break through the realm. In addition, he did not fight much. Whenever he fought fiercely, it was a battle that was overwhelming and consumed almost nothing.

If you take in more and spend less, the accumulation will naturally increase day by day.

With Chen Ping'an's current martial arts insights, there is actually another way to accumulate wealth. That is, he can record his perfect martial arts insights in the inheritance jade book and sell it out.

However, this method is quite harmful. If it is burned frequently, it may even affect one's potential. Only some old and powerful people who have no room for improvement or are focusing on cultivating backup will try it.

In Chen Ping'an's current situation, it would be better to use the time and energy to practice and quickly improve his cultivation. When his cultivation is high, the ways to make money will naturally be more diverse.

There is no need to resort to this extreme measure!

In general, Chen Ping'an's current net worth is not even half of that of a grandmaster, but at least one-third of that of a grandmaster should be less than his.

For this accumulation, Chen Pingan should thank the old man Qi Jue a lot. Without his sending treasures thousands of miles away, how could he have such a rich foundation now?
Chen Pingan buried the body of the old man Qi Jue in a beautiful place. It is estimated that the Tianluo Sect will not receive the news of his death for a while.

For a master of his level, if there were no obvious clues or evidence that he was dead, it would be difficult to make a judgment even if there was no news for several months.

"Martial arts is the way of life and death, and one must be cautious." Chen Ping'an's eyes flashed slightly, and he said secretly.

The old man Qi Jue wanted to kill him, but he ended up being just a corpse. No matter how glorious he was before, he no longer had any connection with him.

When a person dies, his soul disappears; when a person dies, his light goes out!
Chen Pingan is aiming for the top, we should learn from this!
The path of martial arts is long and difficult, so there is no need to worry about the duration.

Store up food, build high walls, and slowly become king. This is an unchanging truth from ancient times.

Accumulating more, improving your foundation, and improving your cultivation are the right way!
Before his death, the old man Qi Jue left behind the inheritance of the Qi Jue Magic Skill. According to what he said, he had completed the last defect. He hoped that Chen Pingan could use this to inherit the Jade Book and carry forward the Qi Jue Magic Skill.

The Qi Jue magic skill was extremely exquisite. The power of the magic skill displayed by old man Qi Jue during the battle made Chen Pingan feel itchy.

However, these days, he was mainly recovering from his injuries and had not yet begun to comprehend the Seven Wonders Divine Art.

His injuries have now recovered almost completely, and he can almost comprehend the Jade Book of Inheritance and practice this magical skill. With the golden finger panel, it is not difficult for him to get started with the magical skill.

This made Chen Pingan look forward to the benefits brought by the entry of magic skills.
Can I use this to break into the late stage of Yuheng and achieve the realm of grandmaster?
However, it is still daytime and his injuries still need a little recovery, so there is no rush for this matter.

In addition to the Qi Jue magic skills, during the past ten days, Chen Pingan has made a detailed understanding and research on the three magic weapons left by old man Qi Jue.

Among the three magic weapons, the most precious one is the one that can change its shape at will. It is called the Hundred Illusions Divine Blade and is a powerful magic weapon.

Normally, the obvious sign to distinguish powerful divine weapons from ordinary divine weapons is that the powerful divine weapons have special spiritual patterns engraved on them, representing a kind of magic.

The magical power of the Hundred Illusionary Divine Blade is the effect of transformation. When triggered by the true essence and spirituality, the weapon can change its form.

However, since Chen Ping'an has not yet officially sacrificed this magic weapon, he is not quite clear about what specific forms the magic weapon can change into and how many forms it can change into.

What surprised Chen Ping'an the most was that this Hundred Illusion Divine Blade did not seem to be completely perfect. Rather than being a finished product, it was more of a semi-finished product and there was still room for improvement.

This old man Qi Jue is really a good person.

He actually gave me such a precious treasure!

One powerful magic weapon is enough for Chen Pingan to use now. If there is a chance to improve the quality of the Hundred Illusionary Divine Blade later, then at the Grandmaster stage, Chen Pingan will basically have no worries about his main magic weapon!
A top-notch magic weapon can only be possessed by a handful of top-notch masters, even among the grand masters.

Compared to the surprise of the Hundred Illusion Divine Blade, the other two magical weapons are somewhat ordinary.

The Rain Needle is extremely fast, but its lethality is slightly insufficient and it is not good at frontal assaults. However, it can be very effective in certain scenarios.

The blue-scale soft armor has blue patterns all over and is composed of fine scales. Compared with normal armor, its protective power is slightly lower, but it is light and flexible. Its magical characteristics help to display its physical skills.

Even though they were all protective armor, they could be divided into many categories. Different categories also represented different focuses. In terms of protective ability, the best was naturally the heavy armor, but this kind of armor, unless it had special spiritual patterns engraved on it, would mostly affect the performance of physical skills.

Armor like the Blue Scale Soft Armor generally has low protection, but it often focuses on flexibility. Not only in terms of physical skills, but also in the speed of attack. Depending on the type, there will be different characteristics and subdivisions.

As for normal armor, it is a balance between protection and flexibility, and is a golden mean between soft armor and heavy armor. Chen Ping'an's black ice silk armor belongs to the category of armor.

In addition, there are some other classifications, such as treasure clothes, heavenly clothes, etc. However, this kind of magic weapon is more precious, and it is definitely not something that ordinary magic weapons can touch.

He has mastered three major horizontal training techniques. Compared with the heavy armor that affects his flexibility, this blue-scale soft armor is more suitable for him.

In addition, with the help of the Youyu Needle, in addition to frontal attacks, Chen Pingan has an additional means of sneak attack.

If used properly, it can be a powerful killer.

With these three magical weapons, Chen Pingan's external weapon skills were greatly enhanced. Invisibly, the gap between him and those krypton gold players was greatly narrowed.

If he fully digests it, his overall combat capability will be further improved.

In addition to the magic weapon, Chen Pingan also studied the monster carving. However, after several attempts, he did not achieve any breakthrough results.

The only discovery was the same as before, that the mouth of the monster sculpture could slowly devour spirituality.

Chen Ping'an's spiritual power was damaged and his injuries had not yet recovered. After trying a few times, he temporarily gave up and planned to continue his research later when he had time.

This monster sculpture can devour spirituality. Chen Pingan feels that it is not simple.

"Comprehension of the inheritance of the Seven Absolute Divine Arts!"

"Sacred weapon sacrifice!"

"Practice the Dragon Movement Technique!"

"Monster carving research!"

The carriage rolled forward, with occasional jolts. Chen Pingan lay in the carriage, thinking about what to do next.

Suddenly, his mind moved slightly and he slowly opened his eyes.

In front of the caravan, a girl in a green gauze skirt was walking towards him. (End of this chapter)
