The Great Martial Saint!

hum~
In the room, seven unique lights were flowing.

Chen Pingan sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, the light blue true energy in his body flowing continuously.

As the true energy circulates, the spirituality shines, like a general leading his soldiers, distributed at various key nodes.

+1!

As a spiritual practice experience emerged, the light in Chen Ping'an's heart gradually dimmed, and he slowly opened his eyes.

Name: Chen Pingan
Realm: Late Yuheng - Spiritual Patterns and Spiritual Fruits (Three Patterns)
Martial Arts: Introduction to the Seven Absolute Divine Skills (472/720), Mastery of the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique (0/3200), Mastery of the Wandering Dragon Body Technique, Mastery of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, Mastery of the Dragon Elephant Hegemony Body Technique, Mastery of the Three-Point Human Tribulation Finger
"472 points!"

The progress of practicing the Seven Wonders Divine Art was pretty much what Chen Pingan had expected.

During these days, he had been making steady progress in his practice. As long as he could cultivate the Seven Absolute Divine Arts to a small degree of success, in addition to improving his mental defense ability, he would also be able to have a deeper understanding of the seven techniques of leg, palm, fist, claw, gun, knife, and sword.

He had already perfected the Soul-Breaking Sword, so there was no need to mention it. As for the other six skills, his understanding and perception would be greatly enhanced as his divine power improved.

The breakthrough of the golden finger panel is equivalent to perfect mastery. In other words, theoretically speaking, the Seven Absolute Divine Arts he displays is stronger than that of the Seven Absolutes Old Man at the same level.

At the same time, with the help of the Seven Absolutes Heart Method, he can perfectly switch between the seven magical skills. When fighting, he can change flexibly. All the methods are born from his mind, making it difficult for the opponent to resist.

As long as the Seven Absolute Divine Powers have reached a small level of success, they will be more than enough for regular combat games.

The Seven Absolute Divine Arts plus the Hundred Illusion Divine Blades are simply a perfect combination.

It is worth mentioning that after many days of refining, he has basically completed the refining of the Hundred Illusion Divine Blade.

The functions of the Hundred Illusion Divine Blade have also been roughly explored.

The overall miraculous effect made Chen Pingan quite satisfied.

In addition to its tough material and sharp edges, it also has the ability to change.

The only drawback is that although this Hundred Illusions Divine Blade is called Hundred Illusions, it can actually only change into three forms in total.

Knife, gun, sword.

Perhaps this is also because the Hundred Illusion Divine Blade has not yet been completely perfected.

I don’t know if it’s due to limited resources or skills, but old man Qi Jue’s Hundred Illusion Divine Blade is still just a semi-finished product and there is room for improvement.

This Hundred Illusion Divine Blade should have been obtained by old man Qi Jue recently, and not much has been heard about it before.

In addition, as old man Qi Jue is approaching his death, he has not been seen much recently, so not many people should know about this Hundred Illusion Divine Blade.

As a divine weapon, the Hundred Illusions Divine Blade has the ability to change size as desired. It can also change appropriately to provide some disguise.

Chen Ping'an even thought that after he broke into the Grandmaster level, he would wear this Hundred Illusion Divine Blade around his waist and show it off.

As long as the ability to transform is not revealed and the form of a knife is shown to others, ordinary people would not be able to imagine it at all.

With his talent and fighting ability, it would not be a big deal for him to be equipped with a magical weapon after becoming a master.

Mang Dao Mang Dao, everyone thought that he was proficient in swordsmanship, but who could have imagined that he was proficient in leg, palm, fist, claw, gun, knife and sword.

One day, when people know that he is proficient in so many skills, who can know that what he is really proud of is not these dazzling skills, but his physique that is so strong that it is frightening!
The dragon-elephant body forged by thousands of demons and cast as hard as diamond is his real support to dominate the world!

In time, he mastered the Ten Thousand Demons Body Forging Technique to perfection.

All demons’ true forms emerge, and all grand masters bow down to them!
Climb onto the Daqian Leaderboard and stir up the local situation!
While thinking, Chen Pingan also ended his practice for the day. As soon as he walked out of the door, he saw Shaoyao trotting all the way, hurriedly coming, her skirt fluttering lightly, with a wisp of fragrance.

"What's the matter?" Chen Pingan asked softly with a calm expression.

"Sir, there is an urgent message from Bei Cang."

"Kunsheng. Dead?"

The atmosphere in the Xue family's old hall seemed a little depressing.

A secret letter that had just arrived was placed in front of all of them.

There seemed to be anger spreading in the air, with a faint hint of gunpowder smoke rising.

After a long time, a white-haired elder of the tribe broke the silence.

"Xue Kun died in the important town of Beicang. His death was silent. When he was found, there was not a single scratch on his body. You can all discuss this matter!"

Everyone in the field looked somewhat solemn.

Xue Kunsheng was quite powerful, and his fighting ability was ranked among the dragon and tiger. Even if a formal master took action, he would not be able to kill him silently.

The most important thing was that he didn't have any injuries on his body, which gave them a lot of associations.

"Have you checked it? Are you sure there are no scratches on your body? Are there any minor ones, like pinholes?"

"No." The white-haired elder shook his head.

"Are there any signs of poisoning?"

"No. We didn't detect any toxicity. Unless it was some kind of rare poison, it's impossible for there to be no residue at all after someone died suddenly from the poison!"

"A strange poison from heaven and earth." An elder's eyes flickered, and he finally sighed, "Then it couldn't be poison."

The world's strange poison was so rare that it was incomparably precious even to a grandmaster. It was totally not worth it to kill Xue Kunsheng, who was not even a grandmaster.

"If he wasn't poisoned and he doesn't have any injuries, then only the Grandmaster can take action!"

As soon as the words fell, the faces of many elders present became solemn.

Xue Kun's life and death were strange, which showed that there was a possibility that a great master might take action.

A great master hiding in the dark makes even a powerful family like the Xue family feel a bit troubled.

"Not necessarily." Xue Shijing looked around and said in a deep voice: "There are no scars on his body. He died suddenly. Some senior masters who are involved in spiritual mysteries may also be able to do this."

"Indeed, Shi Jing is right. It is possible that he is a senior master." An elder of the clan immediately agreed.

"Even if it's a senior master who has taken action, this matter cannot be underestimated. Investigate! We must investigate thoroughly to find out who is behind this?"

"That's right! Anyone who kills someone from our Xue family must pay the price!" An elder of the clan had a stern look on his face, his words carrying an unquestionable determination.

"The family is as powerful as a giant tree, with branches and leaves spreading in all directions, and its benefits are spread across the state. During this period, I don't know how many people's cakes have been touched. There are probably countless forces that have offended each other! For a while, it may be difficult to find out clearly."

"We must investigate no matter how difficult it is! We must start with the network of relationships surrounding Kunsheng, and not let go of any family with common interests. We must unravel the mystery and investigate him thoroughly.

In addition, send personnel to Beicang to check Kunsheng's situation in detail to see if there are any omissions or concealments. At the same time, ask the State Pacification Office to select key personnel to form a special investigation team to go to Beicang to find out the cause! "An elder said, stroking his beard, with wisdom flashing in his eyes.

His tone-setting plan was soon endorsed by many clan elders.

"agree."

"agree."

"."

After the overall tone was set, an elder in the tribe proposed a possibility.

"Do you think it was Chen Pingan, the Mangdao, who did it?"

However, as soon as this possibility was raised, it was quickly opposed.

"Impossible! Although the fighting power of Chen Ping'an cannot be underestimated, it is impossible to kill Kun Sheng silently.
It is undoubtedly a fantasy! "

"Indeed, Chen Pingan is very powerful, but it is impossible for him to reach this level! Even if Kunsheng's Vajra Demon Subduing Chain is weak, he can still fight back with all his might. If this is true, the commotion will definitely not be small!"

"That's right. Chen Pingan is a genius. He is able to surpass ordinary masters without reaching the level of a master. But no matter how outrageous one is, there is a limit. Just not having a single scar is something that Chen Pingan cannot achieve!"

"Ignoring the factor of strength, this guy has already been in the state capital. Considering the time, comparing the two times, there should not be much possibility of committing the crime. In addition, even if Chen Pingan played a trick and rushed to the state capital day and night, from the perspective of motive, it seems that there is no need!"

"That makes sense. This guy has a reckless personality and acts without restraint. He has recently shown a tendency to act lawless. If he really wants to kill, the possibility of him attacking directly in person is actually higher!"

"."

Several statements from the elders of the Xue family quickly dispelled the possibility that Chen Pingan was the murderer.

The elder who proposed this possibility probably knew that his guess was too ridiculous, so he chuckled twice and proposed a new guess.

"If it wasn't Chen Ping'an, could it be those evil sects who did it? "

"It is absolutely impossible. The root cause of the large-scale suppression of evil sects was Beicang. It has been less than a year since the suppression. If they start to stir up trouble again in Beicang and make a comeback, don't you worry that after being discovered, the same old things will happen again, causing an uproar?" Soon, an elder of the clan stood up to oppose.

"Indeed, if they really do that, they will certainly have many concerns. You know, although the previous encirclement and suppression did not completely wipe them out, it also caused them to suffer heavy losses. Now they are so eager to provoke them again. No matter how you look at it, it is an unwise move!"

Hearing the objections from several elders around him, the elder who made the guess actually stood up and refuted it this time.

"Since they are evil heretics, they cannot be judged by common sense. They are all crazy and mad. Such behavior may be for revenge!"

His words did cause several people to think deeply, but there were still elders who stood up and expressed different opinions. However, his words made many people present fall silent. "Have you all forgotten about Shishun's matter?"

Half a year ago, the family elder, the Seven Stars Vein Sealer, Xue Shishun, died in unclear circumstances in Liyang County.

Because of the Xue family's plot and intention to assassinate Chen Pingan, this matter was rarely circulated to the outside world, but it caused a great shock within the Xue family.

According to the conclusion they reached after several investigations, the murderer of Xue Shishun was most likely the remnant of the Wanmo evil.

At that time, the encirclement and suppression campaign had just ended, and the evil demons should have ceased their activities. However, under such circumstances, the demons still took action and killed a master.

Considering the situation at that time, this incident could still happen, let alone now.

"Everyone, there is no value in discussing this matter right now. The tone of the response has been set, and everything will have to wait until the results of the investigation come out. In short, no matter who kills someone from my Xue family, they will pay the price in blood!"

A thin elder in a grey gown spoke up and made the final decision.

The reason for the elders' meeting this time was Xue Kunsheng's bizarre death. However, the tone of the response to his death had been set, but the subsequent ending and impact still needed to be discussed.

Xue Kunsheng was the reserve garrison commander of Beicang. Although his status in Beicang was not as high as before, with him around, the Xue family's interests could be more or less protected. But now that he had suddenly died, the situation was naturally unfavorable to the Xue family.

They need to consider carefully the strategies that need to be adjusted later, the back-up plans to be used, the tone of communication, and the interests to be exchanged.

Recently, the Xue family’s interests in the surrounding areas have suffered setbacks one after another.

In order to suppress the reckless Chen Ping'an, he exchanged interests with the Wang family, gave up a large part of his interests in Qiyun County, and transferred Xue Mingde to Liyang County.

As a result, Xue Mingde died, being killed openly by the remnants of the demons in the Liyang Pacification Office.

Because of this incident, the Canglong Prefecture Pacification Office intensified its suppression of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, but the interests of the Xue family were greatly affected.

Not only did they lose a large amount of interests in Qiyun County, but because of Xue Mingde's death, they also lost the interests in Liyang County.

In addition, because of the assassination of Mangdao Chen Pingan, the Xue family planned to use courtesy first and then force. As a result, Xue Shishun also died in Liyang County by accident.

The chain reaction of this incident also included the transfer of the reckless sword Chen Pingan to the important city of Beicang, which caused Xue Kunsheng to lose his reputation as the righteous leader of Beicang, and the Xue family's influence and interests in Beicang were weakened to a certain extent.

During the process, the Xue family exerted influence in various ways, intending to make Chen Pingan lose all prestige and boost the family's interests and momentum in Northern Cang. But who would have thought that Mang Dao did not play by the rules at all, not only that, but also his fighting power was terrifying, disrupting many plans in one fell swoop.

And now, with Xue Kun's life and death, the Xue family's interests in Beicang have suffered a complete setback.

When Mang Dao returns and Qian Gang takes charge, it can be foreseen that the influence and interests of the Xue family will be greatly reduced.

With so many extractions, tariffs, and trade benefits, it is likely that they will be able to get very little.

When the elders of the Xue family talked about the past, they naturally mentioned Chen Pingan, the Rough Blade.

"At such a young age, he is already ranked among the top ten dragons and tigers. Whether it is talent or genius, this man, Mang Dao, should not be underestimated!"

"Mang Dao's talent and ability are beyond doubt. The only thing that is slightly lacking is his character. According to the news that has been circulating recently, Mang Dao is very aggressive and acts wildly. He may be too stubborn and easily broken!
But even so, the other party did not dare to say that Mang Dao could not pass the Grandmaster level! At most, he dared to add a time limit of half a century! "

"Yes, so what if he has some flaws in his character? With Mang Dao's talent and ability, even the most difficult Grandmaster level can't stop him for ordinary geniuses."

"As long as Mang Dao doesn't die halfway, he will be a great master!"

"Grandmaster!"

"It's a pity that such a genius cannot be used by our Xue family." An elder of the clan sighed.

"I really don't know what bargaining chips the Gu family offered. Our clan is willing to marry off our noble ladies, power, beauty, wealth and fame, to him. It can be said that we are full of sincerity, but we still couldn't pry Mang Dao away at all!"

"No matter how high the stakes offered by the Gu family are, can they be higher than those offered by my Xue family? Zirou is extremely talented and gifted, and she is the pillar of the younger generation of my Xue family.

Such a proud girl married Mang Dao, but Mang Dao remained unmoved. I really don’t know whether I should praise him for sticking to his promise and keeping his word, or say that he is blind and does not recognize the treasures of the world! "

"His relationship with the Gu family is not settled yet. Our Xue family has calmed the public opinion in the state, eliminating the worry that he will change his allegiance and betray his friends. We can give all the bargaining chips given by the Gu family, and even more. After such a generous treatment, in the end... Alas." An elder of the clan sighed.

Xue Shijing sat aside, looking regretful, and had similar feelings.

Mang Dao is a man of great talent. He has every hope of reaching the level of a grandmaster. There is even a high probability that he can become one of the top grandmasters!
With this kind of combat power, he is considered a top-notch strongman even among the elders of the Xue family.

If they could pull him onto the Xue family's chariot, it would be a huge help to the Xue family.

Unfortunately.
"Well, now that it's come to this, there's no need to mention it anymore!"

I heard that the marriage between the Gu family and Mang Dao has basically been negotiated. According to what Mang Dao said in the state pacification office, it should be implemented soon.

At this point, they completely gave up the idea.

It’s a pity that they didn’t discover such a genius earlier.

Now that Mang Dao has grown stronger, it is not as easy as before for them to kill him.

If one wants to kill the enemy silently, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

unless
A possibility came to the minds of several people, but it was quickly dismissed.

With the Gu family around, I’m afraid they won’t give them this opportunity!

In addition, if it really comes to that, then they and the Gu family will really be at odds!

"I wonder which legitimate daughter of the Gu family is getting married? Is it Gu Minglan or Gu Shuxuan?" An elder of the Xue family guessed in his heart.

Given the power of Mang Dao, an ordinary legitimate daughter of the Gu family might not be worthy of him, and the one she wants to marry must at least be a core legitimate daughter.

Among the core daughters of this generation of the Gu family, Gu Minglan and Gu Shuxuan are the most outstanding in all aspects.

If the marriage is going to happen, these two are the most likely candidates.

Xue Shijing was quite curious about this.

However, no matter how curious this matter is, it has nothing to do with the general situation.

Now that the Gu family has been able to win over the country, the overall situation with Mang Dao in charge of Beicang is difficult to change for the time being.

The topic of discussion among the elders present was naturally about countermeasures, to see how to reduce the impact of this incident.

Now, because of Gu Qingchan's breakthrough, the Gu family's prestige is on the rise. They naturally cannot just sit there and wait for death, and they have to do their best to put in some pressure.

While everyone was discussing, an older elder spoke up and made a very meaningful suggestion.

"Everyone, in my opinion, it is better to find an opportunity to alienate the relationship between Mang Dao and the Gu family."

"Oh? Please tell us in detail what Second Uncle said." An elder of the clan showed interest, with some excitement in his eyes.

"Sowing discord." A gleam of light flashed in Xue Shijing's eyes, and his honest appearance seemed to become a little more fierce.

"Xue Kun is dead or alive!"

Chen Pingan's eyes were cold, and his fingers gently stroked the letter paper. In an instant, the letter paper ignited in his hand, the flame was dark blue, reflecting his calm face, white smoke rose, and finally dissipated in the air.

This secret letter from Beicang brought the news of Xue Kunsheng's life and death.

There was not a single scratch on his body, as if he had died suddenly in his own house.

Chen Pingan had some vague guesses about the cause of Xue Kunsheng's death.

But there is no basis for this, so I can't be sure for the time being.

Xue Kunsheng's sudden death completely disrupted his rhythm. According to his plan, he was going to leave Canglongzhou City after attending the trading meeting.

But now that Xue Kunsheng is dead or alive, the people of the important city of Beicang are in panic and leaderless.

Logically speaking, as the deputy commander of the important town of Beicang, he should rush back to take charge of the overall situation as soon as he received the news. Stabilize the possible turbulent situation, appease the people, and...
To deter the villains from all directions who might be ready to make a move because of this incident!

But the problem is that there are still a few days before the trading meeting.

If he rushed back now, he would undoubtedly miss this trading meeting.

After waiting for so many days, it was all in vain. I don't know when I will come to Canglongzhou City next time.

But if he didn't go back, he would have no reason to explain.

The trading meeting was attended by a pseudonym and had nothing to do with the real person.

As the deputy governor of the important town of Beicang, you are in charge of all matters. When a major incident occurs in the important town, what does it mean if you don't go back and stay in the provincial capital?
It is reasonable for him to go back!
"How about pretending to rush back first, then quietly turn back halfway, and then go online with a pseudonym to participate in the entire trading meeting?" Chen Pingan thought to himself, listing out alternative plans.

The plan is not bad, but it is a bit troublesome to implement.

In addition, if he fails to trade for a suitable technique in the trading meeting, he will be in a passive position.

It's not right to leave, nor is it right to wait!

It was a coincidence that Xue Kun died at this critical moment, which made Chen Pingan feel quite embarrassed.

However, this matter soon ushered in a turning point. (End of this chapter)
