The court lackeys of the eight-hour workday

Chapter 228: Enemy
"So, you already know the origin of this formula."

The emperor looked at Wu Zhiheng grimly.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

When Wu Zhiheng said this, he seemed to be finally relieved, and all the hesitation he had just had in his speech disappeared.

"Among the celestial beings of the same line, perhaps only those who have achieved Jiezi's cultivation can see the clues. But we, the court worshippers, are all celestial beings of the same line. We can draw inferences from one instance to another, and even if we are not very perceptive, we can understand it after taking a few more glances."

"That is why I asked Your Majesty to dismiss the attendants."

The scene fell silent for a while.

After a long while, the emperor slowly spoke.

"Then what? You, why didn't you run away with the formula? Even if you were seriously injured, Liu Banban might not be able to keep you."

Wu Zhiheng sighed.

"Because I am worried about you."

Hearing what Li Miao said, several priests looked at each other and exchanged glances.

Some people who can achieve the integration of the two paths may be fools, after all, comprehension is not related to IQ. But those who can achieve the integration of the two paths, serve as a worshiper for decades, and whose life span has not been consumed by the imperial court must be smart.

The five priests present all knew what Li Miao meant.

With this technique, the preconditions for the court to control the priests completely disappeared.

Of course, they all knew that the imperial court must have other tricks up their sleeves. Tang Gongfeng, who was brought by Wang Zhi, died in this way a few days ago. But no matter how magical this trick was, it couldn't take their lives thousands of miles away.

As long as they get out of the imperial mausoleum, they can go anywhere in the world. Without the five decays of heaven and man pressing them step by step, with their martial arts, they can enjoy the good life and do whatever they want.
Besides... the emperor is not the kind of person who believes in "trusting the people he employs".

You said you only took a look?
Who believes?

This thing is not a physical object, it is stored in the brain. You can't dig out your brain and show it to the emperor, right?

The emperor will never allow this skill to spread out, so the simplest way is to silence the witness!
It can be said that the moment they stepped into the Xiaoling Mausoleum, several worshippers stood completely against the emperor, and they knew it very well.

Qi Gongfeng turned around and looked at the other people.

"How do you say, everyone?"

"What else can I say! Go! Go now!"

Liu Gongfeng said.

"The Emperor is almost here, it's time to leave!"

"After we come out of our deep sleep, we can only be awake for three days at most. After three days, the Five Decays of Heaven and Man will set in. But with our Qinggong and Qi, we can at least escape a thousand miles! Then we will take turns to sleep, and then we will disband when we reach the Western Regions!"

Wang Gongfeng said.

The remaining priests all nodded, except Wu Zhiheng, who said nothing.

"Brother Wu...what do you mean?"

Several priests noticed this, exchanged glances with each other, slowly approached, and surrounded Wu Zhiheng.

"You're not leaving?"

"Don't go."

Wu Zhiheng shook his head.

"Also, I have to stop you all. Please don't step over my body and leave."

"Brother Wu!"

The royal attendant roared.

"Do you think this bullshit 'offering' is stupid?!"

"No."

Wu Zhiheng slowly clenched his fist.

"I'm not stupid, nor am I crazy."

"I know in my heart that after seeing this technique, there are only two options left: death or escape. I am not a loyal minister, and I have no loyalty to the emperor."

"It's just that, when I was about to die, I suddenly realized that there were some things I couldn't let go of... If I couldn't let go of them, I couldn't just walk away."

"Brother Wang."

Wu Zhiheng looked at Wang Gongfeng, and then glanced at the other priests.

"Everyone, after serving as a worshiper for decades, you almost forgot your own name, right? Do you still remember your sect and nickname in the martial arts world?"

"Green Willow Manor, 'It's hard to understand the grudges', Wang Ming."

"'White knife', Li Ai." "'Black knife', Liu Xi."

"'Qi Family Knife', Qi Xiang."

Wu Zhiheng pointed at himself.

"Cao Gang, 'Iron Chain Across the River', Wu Zhiheng."

"I am the leader of the Cao Gang, Wu Zhiheng."

Wu Zhiheng straightened his back suddenly and assumed a boxing stance.

"Brother Wang, we are both worshippers and share the same suffering. I can befriend you. But now, I have to sever all ties with you!"

"Green Willow Manor is an evil sect! Li Ai, Liu Xi! You two are even more of a lone devil!"

"You have read the formula of this technique! 'The Qi disperses, the spirit withers, and the bones become a boat'! This is a technique that uses the lives of others to carry oneself to the other side!"

"If you take it and let it flow into the martial arts world, I don't know how many people in the martial arts world will be killed to practice martial arts! The emperor only uses celestial beings, but celestial beings are rare. You evil people will definitely try to use ordinary martial arts people, or even innocent people, to practice martial arts!"

"Before I became some shitty worshipper...I am the leader of the Cao Clan! A righteous hero!"

"Pooh!"

Wang Gongfeng snorted coldly.

"Okay, okay, you've always looked down on me."

"Well, good and evil cannot coexist, and I don't want to associate with you anymore."

"But don't put it so nicely."

he said with a sneer.

"You are the leader of the Cao Gang, and your descendants are all in the Cao Gang. You are just afraid that if you leave, your descendants will be implicated."

Wu Zhiheng did not answer.

No one knew whether he was thinking about the moral principles of the martial arts world or the love between men and women. But seeing that he had already secretly used his true energy and got ready, it was clear that he had made his choice.

"Brother Qi, what do you say?"

Gongfeng Wang turned and looked at Gongfeng Qi.

"Just now, Mr. Wu said that Brother Li, Brother Liu and I are evil, but you are righteous. If I remember correctly, you fought against Japanese pirates on the southeast coast and made a great name for yourself."

"Today, do you still want to be this hero?"

Qi Gongfeng slowly drew out the long sword from his waist and said with a smile.

"The false reputation from decades ago has long since vanished. What's the point of talking about being a hero? I'm afraid no one in the martial arts world remembers it anymore."

"Of course, I have to work with Brother Wang to find a way to survive."

"it is good!"

The king shouted.

"In that case, Mr. Wu, don't blame us for being cruel. It's you who insists on making things difficult for us. Considering our friendship over the past few decades, I will let you down!"

"Do it!"

Swish!
Pfft!
"you!"

Liu Gongfeng retreated violently, and beside him, the headless body of Li Gongfeng fell to the ground.

Qi Gongfeng held the knife in his arm, wiped off the blood, and said with a smile.

"Two against three, I don't think we can win."

"It's two against two now, that's about it."

"Qi! What do you mean by this?"

The king shouted angrily.

"What else could it mean?"

Qi Gongfeng said with amusement.

"Don't you want to tell me that I am a hero. I cannot be in league with evil people like you."

"Besides, you just said that if we leave, our descendants will definitely be implicated. No matter whether the emperor or the Jianwen Emperor wins today, they will hold us accountable in the future."

Qi Gongfeng pointed his long sword at Wang Gongfeng.

"I am different from you evil people who are alone. My son is the deputy commander of Dengzhou Guard! As a father, I naturally cannot ruin my son's future!"

"Different road non-phase plan!"
