The Great Martial Saint!

Chen Ping'an's eyes were calm and his expression was indifferent, like an immortal who had transcended the mortal world.

He clearly did nothing, but it seemed like he did everything.

The noise around seemed to be gently suppressed by an invisible big hand, gradually becoming weaker until it completely subsided.

The scene was silent and still.

An invisible pressure, centered on Chen Pingan, slowly spread out like a tide.

"This"

A hint of fear appeared in Feng Wuhen's eyes.

Feeling the vague sense of oppression around him, Lu Yuanzai's expression became solemn.

"The martial arts willpower comparable to that of a mid-stage Yuheng!"

That day, Chen Pingan killed the blood bat Wei Yiqi, and many of them witnessed the scene. However, they had never felt the oppression and power in person, and mostly judged based on experience, but at this moment, it was obvious that they felt it!
It was thought that Chen Ping'an was able to defeat Wei Yiqi mainly because of his amazing fighting skills and his domineering sword intentions, but who would have thought that Chen Ping'an's martial arts will had actually reached the level of the middle stage of Yuheng!

In terms of strong willpower and solid foundation, he is not inferior to some senior masters who have been famous for many years!

You know, he has just broken through to the Grandmaster level!

Is there really such an amazing talent in this world! ?

A senior master who is in the early stage of Yuheng and on par with the middle stage of Yuheng! This foundation is...
If he enters the middle stage of Yuheng someday, wouldn't he have the power of a top master? ?
this.
Many people in the field were shocked. Even several great priests who had attended the banquet and had reached the level of grandmasters also had expressions of surprise on their faces.

The man who was locked in Chen Ping'an's gaze felt a chill running up his spine. Cold sweat instantly soaked his clothes on his back. He felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, unable to move.

This is an ordinary worshiper of the State Pacification Division. Although he has entered the realm of Yuheng Grandmaster, his foundation was damaged in his early years, and his combat power is no longer at its peak, not as good as most ordinary Grandmasters. How can he get any benefit from being targeted by Chen Pingan at this time?

The oppressive feeling at this moment was so strong that it exceeded the limit of his ability to resist in normal state. If he did not draw in the spiritual light and protect his body with his true energy, he would be in danger of being injured.

However, if we attract spiritual power, it will be seen as a provocation and fight within the state's pacification office.

Therefore, in this situation, he could only grit his teeth and hold on.

Feeling the tremendous power around him, he felt a little regretful, but when he thought of Lord Li's promise, he became excited.

Just one word can bring back a half century of accumulated hard work. This deal couldn't be better!

"Master Chen, what are you doing?"

Fang Zhengyu looked doubtful and puzzled, but he actually knew everything.

These words were all conceived in his mind, in order to fulfill Lord Li's request.

Chen Ping'an didn't say anything. His eyes were as deep as a calm cold pond. He just looked at him.

Fang Zhengyu only felt that the sense of oppression around him became stronger, and everything around him seemed to be pressing down on him.

Fang Zhengyu had cold sweat dripping down his face, and he spoke with difficulty: "Master Chen, if I said something wrong, you can just tell me, why bother!"

As he spoke, he looked around, hoping that someone would come to his rescue and speak up. As long as someone spoke up, he would be able to stand on the moral high ground and be invincible.

But unfortunately, when he looked around, no one stood up to respond.

Fang Zhengyu's heart suddenly skipped a beat and he had a bad feeling.

boom!
The aura around him grew stronger, and Fang Zhengyu felt that he could not resist any more. His body softened and he almost fell to the ground.

"What?" Feng Wuhen was shocked and his expression changed slightly.

The aura around him was already comparable to that of a mid-stage Yuheng realm, and at this moment it could even increase further, even approaching the level of his realm.

In addition to Feng Wuhen, there were many frightened people around, and there was disbelief in their eyes when they looked at Chen Pingan.

Rough Knife Chen Ping An.
The aura rolled towards Fang Zhengyu like a wave. At this moment, Fang Zhengyu, who was in the center, could no longer hold on.

Pfft!
His body collapsed directly to the ground.

"Master Chen!" Fang Zhengyu looked annoyed and asked loudly, "Excuse me, what did I do wrong that you have to do this?"

Although Fang Zhengyu's reaction was violent, until this moment, he did not dare to draw in his spiritual power and use his true energy for protection.

Chen Ping'an ignored Fang Zhengyu, just looked at him again, and then slowly withdrew his gaze.

It was also at this moment that the majestic and rolling aura around him disappeared.

Fang Zhengyu felt his body relax, and the oppressive feeling around him disappeared without a trace, and his whole body became relaxed. But a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Obviously, without spiritual guidance and using his true energy to protect his body, he suffered serious injuries from the pressure and shock of the breath just now.

As Chen Ping'an's breath faded, the atmosphere in the field became lively again. The noise and congratulations remained, as if nothing had happened.

Everyone present could basically hear the inappropriateness of Fang Zhengyu's words. If Chen Pingan didn't get angry, no one would remind him. But if Chen Pingan got angry, as long as he didn't really do it, no one would come forward to stop him.

With Chen Pingan's current power, even if some people don't want to make friends with him, no one will offend him rashly! Especially just now, the power displayed by Chen Pingan seemed to be more terrifying than they expected.

"Is it because of the consolidation of the realm? Or..." Many masters guessed secretly.

Fang Zhengyu looked around and left in shame.

After leaving the scene, the haze in Fang Zhengyu's heart was swept away, and he felt a sense of pleasure of surviving a disaster.

The power of the Mang Dao was stronger than he expected, but he...
made money!

Just one verbal incitement can earn you a half-century of hard work. Where can you find such a good deal? ?

Now he had to go find Lord Li, report the situation, and get his reward.

Fang Zhengyu's departure obviously attracted the attention of many people, either openly or secretly.

It is obvious that Fang Zhengyu's action today was not without reason. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that with the current power of Mangdao Chen Pingan, Fang Zhengyu, a mere ordinary priest of the Quzhou Zhenfu Division, probably cannot afford to offend him!

Combined with previous events and Fang Zhengyu's stance within the State Pacification Office, the person behind this is easy to identify.

Although this verbal test was a small matter, the signal it revealed was extremely obvious.

Wei Yiqi’s story is not over yet!
"Sir Chen, I'll offer you a toast. Don't worry about unhappy things! He's just a clown!" Someone said with a smile, holding a glass of wine.

They are mostly neutral about this matter. Or if they lean towards it, they won't show it too obviously.

"Master Chen, I salute you!"

Chen Ping'an's expression remained the same as he responded to everyone's toasts and greetings.

He didn't even look at Fang Zhengyu, a worshiper of the state pacification office, when he left.

If he only focused on Fang Zhengyu, then his vision would be too narrow.

In today's incident, Fang Zhengyu was just a chess piece. There was someone else behind the plot.

The dog barked at him, and after he showed off his power, what he should have done was not to find the dog, but to find the owner standing behind the dog and teach him a lesson.

If you only see the dog and fail to notice the owner who is signaling from the back, you are invisibly lowering your vision, losing face and making a fool of yourself.

Of course, if the dog doesn't understand the situation and dares to show its teeth, he doesn't mind killing a dog to add some fun and show off his skills.

But obviously, the dog still understands a little bit. He knows that yelling is the master's job, and that he is the one who gets hurt in the end if he bares his teeth.

It gave him a little more patience.

There is no rush to decide whether to kill the dog or not, just wait until the owner is dead and then deal with it together!
Once is a problem, twice is also a problem, so why not do it together, happily and happily, and send you off!
"Master Li, everything you ordered has been done. This is the situation."

In front of a large black jade table, Fang Zhengyu spoke in an orderly manner about what had just happened at the banquet with a smile on his face.

"Well done." A low and hoarse voice sounded, with a hint of sinister intent.

Sitting behind the black jade table was a pale man with long black hair and a thin body. He was wearing a black robe and his eyes were of a different color.

Deputy Director of the Canglong Prefecture Pacification Office, the One with the Sound of Death, Li Wusheng!
"Lord Li, then..." The corners of Fang Zhengyu's lips twitched.

Since he had the heart to wade into this muddy water and took on the risks and implications, the reward he deserves will naturally not be less.

Whoosh!
A treasure bag as black as ink and embroidered with golden scent fell into Fang Zhengyu's hands.

Fang Zhengyu opened the treasure bag, took a look, sensed it spiritually, counted it, and a sincere smile appeared on his face.

He took on a little responsibility, which offset his hard work for 60 years.
made money!

"Thank you, Lord Li." Fang Zhengyu smiled and bowed to express his gratitude.

After a few pleasantries, he left.

Li Wusheng slowly raised his head, revealing an extremely pale face under the moonlight.

"Chen Ping'an"

“That’s interesting.”

After learning what happened at the dinner from the people below, Yao Guang showed a hint of amusement on his face.

As the deputy director who ranks at the top of the Canglongzhou Pacification Division, there are not many things that are worthy of Yao Guang's interest, but it is obvious that the matter of Chen Pingan and Li Wusheng is one of them.

The Sound of Death Palm, Li Wusheng!
Blood Bat Wei Yiqi was the biggest supporter of the State Pacification Office. Obviously, Li Wusheng did not intend to let Wei Yiqi's death go.

This is how the feud between the two began!

The dinner party has already made his attitude clear.

Now that Mang Dao Chen Ping'an is gaining momentum, he is even registered with the Northern Border Pacification Division, and there is a possibility that he will be reused! Mang Dao's current momentum is not to say that it is at its peak, but it is also very popular.

Logically speaking, with such a genius, it would be too early to make friends, so such a thing would never happen!
but.
Li Wusheng is Wei Yiqi's backer. If he, as his superior, turns a blind eye to the death of his subordinate and the news gets out, it will be difficult for him to lead the team.

Not to mention the impact on one's own prestige, even within the team, there are probably many people who feel disheartened.

Of course, the biggest key is that Li Wusheng relied on his extraordinary strength and entered the top ranks in his early years. He is one of the most powerful people below Grandmaster Fengyun.

Not to mention the deputy directors of the Canglongzhou Pacification Office, even if we count Jinluo Qiankun, the deputy envoy of the Qiankun Office, their combat power can still be firmly ranked among the top three.

With this support, although he valued Mang Dao Chen Pingan, he was not so afraid of him. Even if he was afraid, he was more afraid of the Gu family behind Mang Dao and the Northern Border Pacification Division, so he did not dare to do things too much or too obviously.

Mang Dao is a genius with the potential to be a dragon. If he hadn't died, he would have definitely achieved the level of a Grandmaster! There's even a possibility of breaking through to a level higher than the Grandmaster!

but.
Maybe, it's just a possibility!

Even if we take a step back and say that Mang Dao achieves something in the future, it will be many years later!
Two hundred years? Three hundred years! Or...
Four hundred years! ?

By that day, if Li Wusheng were still alive, he would have probably made further progress and broken through to the level of Grandmaster, and would not have to worry about Chen Ping'an's revenge.

If he were to die and become nothing more than dry bones in a grave, he wouldn't have to worry about Chen Ping'an's revenge.

Besides, it is extremely difficult to break through to the realm above Grandmaster!
Even though Chen Ping'an is extremely gifted and talented, he may not be able to cross this threshold!
Do not!
To be exact, it is these numerous thresholds!
After much consideration, given Li Wusheng's current status, he really doesn't need to worry so much!

He used other people's help instead of launching a direct attack, which was the greatest respect for the Northern Border Pacification Office.

"It's rare to see something lively happen!"

Yao Guang stood in front of the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the scenery outside with interest.

Ever since he perfected the Eight Desolate Fist, there are not many people in this state's pacification office who he can truly fear.

And Li Wusheng is one of them!
The news that Chen Ping'an, the rough sword, was promoted to the position of the governor of Beicang, promoted to the candidate for the position of the chief, and was granted the seal and registered as the governor of the Northern Border Pacification Office soon spread.
It went out and spread to every household.

On the other hand, the incident of the dinner party held by the Provincial Pacification Office also reached the ears of some interested persons.

"Beicang is guarding? Mang Dao got promoted?"

"A candidate for the position of Chief Minister? This person is truly a state giant!"

"Twenty-four-year-old candidate for the position of Chief, hiss~"

"He has just broken through the realm and has been promoted to the position of a guardian. Mang Dao's future is bright!"

"Rise straight up to the sky, straight up to the sky!"

"."

The news of Chen Ping'an's promotion sparked heated discussions in Canglongzhou City.

In an elegant garden in Canglongzhou City, Liang Xiaoxian also received the news of Chen Pingan's promotion.

"Chief Executive Candidate!"

Liang Xiaoxian fumbled with the information in her hand, her almond-shaped eyes seemed to be able to speak.

"The reaction of the Northern Border Pacification Office is really quick!" The Earth-Splitting Old Man bared his chest and grinned, "He is so young, but he has been given such an important task!"

"The twenty-four-year-old Yuheng Grandmaster is a potential dragon. No matter how much we value him, it is not too much." Kuang Lanke glanced at the Earth-Splitting Old Man and said nonchalantly, "With a little training, he will become a great Grandmaster. With careful carving, his future achievements will most likely be no less than yours and mine!"

"That's in the future." The Earth-Splitting Old Man sneered twice, "He has only just started to become a Grandmaster! The Yuheng Pass is more difficult than the other level, and the harder it is to pass! Even though he became a Grandmaster at the age of 24, if he is unlucky, he may not be able to enter the middle stage of Yuheng after another 60 years! It's still too early for him to become a Grandmaster!"

Liang Xiaoxian, who was standing by, understood what the Earth-Splitting Old Man said. Gu Qingchan's reverse progress was an anomaly. Normally, it was normal for the time spent on breaking through to a new level to be longer and longer.

Even the vast majority, once they reach a certain bottleneck, can no longer move forward. Even if they spend a hundred years, they will only be standing still.

"No matter what, this recruitment has failed!" Liang Xiaoxian's almond-shaped eyes were clear and bright, revealing a hint of disappointment.

Mang Dao has entered the realm of Yuheng Grandmaster at a young age, and even has a record of defeating a mid-stage Yuheng. With such talent and ability, even in the Bi Cang Prince's Mansion, there are few people who can match him even after several generations!

"He will figure it out!" The Earth-Splitting Old Man said coldly, "He is just a Grandmaster, but he was granted the status of a second-class guest official. Looking at the surrounding states, who can be more sincere than my Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion?"

The Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion has a profound heritage, and the mansion has countless guest officials and masters. For the guest officials, there are naturally a series of institutional rules and regulations, as well as corresponding welfare benefits, rights and obligations.

According to the actual situation, the levels of guest officials were divided in detail.

For example, the second-class guest officials of the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion were well-paid and were already considered top-class in the guest official hierarchy. Generally speaking, even a grandmaster was not something that could be achieved just by wanting to.

People like him, the Earth-Splitting Old Man and the Crazy Wave Guest, were extremely powerful and were among the most powerful among the top grandmasters, but in the guest official standards of the Prince of the Bi Cang County's Mansion, they were only barely ranked as first-class guests.

As the Grandmaster of Yuheng, Mang Dao enjoyed the treatment of a second-class guest official, which was extremely generous! It was considered the best preferential treatment.

"Other forces may not have the sincerity of my Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion, but what about people from other factions within the palace?" Liang Xiaoxian's eyes widened, revealing a hint of worry.

The Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion was powerful, but it was not a monolithic entity. Especially now, when it came to the battle for the throne, the various factions were fighting to the death.

At this critical juncture, all major factions will cherish any help.

Although the strength of Mang Dao Chen Pingan is not enough to really intervene in the big game concerning the throne, with his talent, if he joins a faction, he can definitely be used to strengthen his power.

It is similar to the limited effect on enhancing hard power, but it is of great benefit in demonstrating soft power.

They are aware of this kind of consideration and planning, and other factions are obviously aware of it as well.

When Chen Pingan broke through to the Grandmaster level, they happened to be in Canglong, taking advantage of the timing. Chen Pingan was in seclusion to consolidate his realm for nearly a month, and they did not return to the Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion. In addition to dealing with the affairs of the three major families in Canglong, they also held the idea of ​​being close to the water and getting the moon first.

He wanted to seize the opportunity and recruit Chen Pingan, the Mangdao, before other factions did and bring him into his possession.

but now
Obviously they failed!
When the news spread that Mang Dao Chen Ping'an, at the age of 24, had broken through to the Grandmaster realm, it was foreseeable that all the major factions would be quick to act and would send people to contact them.

By then, the initiative will no longer be in their hands!
Liang Xiaoxian also felt quite troubled by this matter.

In order to win over Mang Dao Chen Ping'an, the price she offered was already the highest authorized by her godfather. If it was any higher, it would not be something that her godfather could decide alone.

Under such circumstances, she naturally didn't dare to make promises casually.

But judging from the current situation, the price she offered was obviously not enough to impress Chen Pingan.

What Chen Pingan said sounded nice, but in the final analysis it was because the price she offered was not enough.

As long as the price is high enough, she doesn't believe Chen Ping'an won't be tempted! ?
All the rejection responses are just his means to wait for the right price!
"If he could have a top-notch magic weapon as a bargaining chip, I don't believe he wouldn't be tempted!" Liang Xiaoxian's eyes were clear and her mind was in turmoil.

"Human greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant." The corner of Kuang Lan Ke's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a hint of mockery: "If he is really given a top-notch magic weapon, he may not be able to keep it!"

Top-notch magic weapon, how precious!
Even they, after so many years of life and death, could only get one thing!
How could Chen Ping'an, the Mang Dao, who was only at the early stage of Yu Heng, wish to obtain a top-notch magic weapon?
What a joke!
Does he think he is some kind of noble descendant?!

ridiculous!

“In my opinion, it is better to take direct action and force Mang Dao to enter my Bi Cang County Prince’s Mansion!” The Earth-Splitting Old Man smiled grimly: “In the face of life and death, no matter how talented he is, he has no choice but to surrender!”

"inappropriate!"

As soon as the Earth-Splitting Old Man's proposal came out, it was opposed by Liang Xiaoxian.

"If Mang Dao is tempted by the interests and willingly does it, with the power of our Bi Cang County Prince's Mansion, no matter how dissatisfied the Gu family is, they dare not say anything. But if we force our move, break the rules, and use our power to force Mang Dao to submit, then the Gu family is not soft, and it will just give them a reason and excuse to intervene! Not only will the matter fail, but the consequences will be even worse!"

"That makes sense." Kuang Lanke agreed.

"Wouldn't it be better if it gets worse? We can't win them over, and other factions don't want to win them over!" The Earth-Splitting Old Man argued.

"Old man!" Kuang Lanke called out to Liedi Sou and said calmly, "This is Canglong Province! And, the one from the Gu family, have you forgotten?"

The pupils of the old man with the split earth shrank, as if he thought of something, and he immediately closed his mouth.

Liang Xiaoxian's eyes narrowed, and she obviously thought of something.

"The breeze blows over the hills, and the bright moon shines on the river"

After a brief silence, Liang Xiaoxian's voice sounded again.

"Since the matter has failed, then I will return to Bi Cang as soon as possible, report the matter, and ask my foster father to make the decision.
Update soon too."

"Uncle, please come in."

Under the respectful guidance of the maid, Chen Pingan stepped into the quiet pavilion.

With the announcement of his marriage to Gu Qingcheng, he naturally became the son-in-law of the Gu family.

He is not just a son-in-law whose symbolic meaning is greater than his actual meaning. He married the Gu family's contemporary genius, Gu Qingcheng, who is the legitimate daughter among legitimate daughters. He is a real son-in-law!

Because of the promotion, he missed a day for nothing. But it didn't matter, and he came here early the next morning after the dinner.

The main reason Chen Pingan came to the Gu family this time was to say goodbye.

Besides this, he had some other purposes.

Just as Chen Pingan was visiting the Gu family, the Tianji Tower in Daqian Zhongzhou also collected the latest list of potential dragons. After a series of cross-examinations, this list was released to the entire dynasty. (End of this chapter)
