Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 254 Xu Qing: I want the Longevity Formula, and I also want the Ice Profound Force!
"Calm down? It has been more than two months since I was assassinated."

Not only did you fail to capture that woman, you also failed to seize the "Longevity Manual" that I desired!

"So much for being the foremost of the four great masters of the Yuwen Clan, renowned throughout the martial arts world! In my eyes, you, Yuwen Huaji, are nothing but a piece of trash!"

Xu Qing showed no kindness, his voice was cold, and his manner of speaking was extremely similar to that of the original Yang Guang.

However, his majesty and domineering presence were even more intense than those of the original Yang Guang.

Yuwen Huaji lowered his head, his face was very ugly, and a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

He was such a proud man that most people in the martial arts world and even the imperial court had to treat him with utmost respect.

Now, however, he is being mocked as a good-for-nothing by the tyrannical emperor before him.

Yuwen Huaji's anger surged, but he dared not lash out.

Not to mention that this is not the best time, the strange beast standing next to Xu Qing is no pushover.

He suppressed his anger and said, "Your Majesty, Fu Junzhuo is the first disciple of Grandmaster Fu Cailin and has deeply inherited Fu Cailin's true teachings."

He possessed extraordinary martial arts skills, and his Yi sword technique was particularly formidable.

This person's skill level is considered among the highest in the martial arts world.

However, she has already been severely injured by Chen, and he will be able to capture her soon!

Yuwen Huaji's meaning was clear: it wasn't that he wasn't strong enough, but that his opponent was also very strong and had an extraordinary background, being the first disciple of a Grandmaster.

It is quite remarkable that he was able to severely damage it in just two months.

Xu Qing did not speak upon hearing this, as he was well aware of the matter.

Fu Junzhuo's lineage is not weak, but her aptitude is not particularly high, and she has not fully inherited Fu Cailin's style.

Seeing that Xu Qing remained silent, Yuwen Huaji continued, "Your Majesty, during my battle with him, the Longevity Manual was taken away by someone else."

Your Majesty, I have investigated thoroughly and confirmed that the person who stole the "Longevity Manual" is none other than the Taoist Shi Long from Yangzhou City.

"Stone Dragon?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Qing recalled the person's information in his mind.

Shi Long, known as the "Mountain Pusher" in Yangzhou, is considered the number one strongman in the city.

His martial arts level is also that of a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm.

This world is of a higher level, with far more experts at the Innate Grandmaster level than in the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber world, and they are all stronger.

"I have already ordered the Shilong Dojo to be secretly surrounded. Tonight, I will take action to seize the 'Longevity Manual' from their possession and present it to Your Majesty!"

Yuwen Huaji revealed his plan.

His original plan was to take the "Longevity Manual" from Shi Long and then have someone make a fake copy to present to this tyrannical emperor.

But now Yuwen Huaji vaguely feels that this move is very inappropriate.

The sudden appearance of such a powerful beast beside Yang Guang aroused Yuwen Huaji's suspicion that Yang Guang had been hiding it all these years.

It's possible that he himself possesses considerable martial arts skills!

Because the pressure Xu Qing exerted on him was too intense, something that someone with low martial arts skills could never possess.

As for why the other party no longer hid, Yuwen Huaji didn't have time to think about it too much.

"So, does that mean I'll be able to obtain the martial arts treasure, the Longevity Manual, tonight?" Xu Qing stared at Yuwen Huaji and said calmly.

"If nothing unexpected happens, that's how it is," Yuwen Huaji replied, slightly raising his head.

"An accident? If you still can't get it, then you don't need to hang around in front of me anymore. I don't need useless people by my side!"

Xu Qing was very domineering and extremely rude to Yuwen Huaji, who harbored rebellious intentions.

Yuwen Huaji's heart sank immediately, and he quickly promised, "Your Majesty, I will definitely seize the 'Longevity Manual' tonight!"

Xu Qing nodded slightly and said calmly, "I have heard that your Yuwen family's 'Ice Profound Force' is unparalleled in the world, and is an extremely yin and cold martial art."

Before studying the "Longevity Manual," would you be willing to let me see the "Ice Profound Force"?

The Yuwen clan was the royal family of the previous dynasty, and their family's "Ice Profound Strength" was naturally an extraordinary martial art.

It may not compare to the Four Great Martial Arts Manuals, but even so, the Ice Profound Force is still a top-tier divine skill. Yuwen Huaji's eyes flashed, and the anger in his heart surged again. He never expected that this tyrant would not only covet the Longevity Manual, but also the divine skill of his Yuwen clan!
"Your Majesty, the Ice Profound Force is a closely guarded secret of the Yuwen clan. I cannot pass it on privately and must inform the clan head of this matter," Yuwen Huaji said with some difficulty.

His implication was clear: he didn't want to reveal it.

But they dared not speak out and could only postpone the matter.

Once the "Longevity Manual" is obtained, this tyrannical emperor will naturally lose interest in the Yuwen clan's divine skills.

As for whether or not we need to worry about what to do if this tyrannical ruler cultivates the Longevity Technique.

This book is even more obscure and difficult to understand than Yuwen Clan's "Bing Xuan Jin".

For many years, apart from Guang Chengzi and the Yellow Emperor who wrote about it, no one else has been able to complete it.

This shows how difficult this martial art is.

Therefore, Yuwen Huaji was not worried at all that Yang Guang would be able to successfully cultivate.

"I will speak to Yuwen Shang about this matter myself. You need not be afraid of Yuwen Shang blaming you."

Besides, he wouldn't dare refuse me what I want!

Xu Qing understood what the other party meant, but still wanted the Ice Profound Force.

He wants the secret to immortality!
He wants the Ice Profound Force too!
With things having come to this point, Yuwen Huaji could only curse the incompetent and greedy emperor in his heart.

He dared not disobey the imperial decree and had no choice but to hand over the Ice Profound Force.

"Damn you, you tyrant! I'll let you be smug for a while. Once my Yuwen clan is ready, I will be the first to blast you to pieces!"

Yuwen Huaji secretly vowed that he would one day retaliate fiercely against such humiliation.

Xu Qing naturally sensed the murderous intent in Yuwen Huaji's heart; he had killed countless people.

The terror of the murderous intent hidden within the hearts of millions is like a purgatory.

He was also extremely sensitive to killing intent, and Yuwen Huaji's control over this was something he couldn't hide from him at all.

However, he did not make a move, since he had forcibly taken the other party's family's secret martial arts.

It's normal for the other party to be dissatisfied.

After obtaining the "Ice Profound Force", Xu Qing had no time to deal with Yu Wenhua.

"Step down. Tonight I want to see the 'Longevity Manual,' and I also want everyone outside to rise."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Filled with anger and resentment, Yuwen Huaji lowered his head and retreated, then turned and left the palace.

After leaving the palace, his face could no longer be suppressed; it became extremely gloomy, and his eyes were so fierce that they seemed to want to devour people.

The imperial guards kneeling outside the palace were all frightened by Yuwen Huaji's gaze and dared not look him in the eye.

"His Majesty commands you all to rise."

Yuwenhua and his opening.

The guards then stood up, enduring the pain in their knees.

After he finished speaking, he strode away, not wanting to stay in the palace for even a moment longer!

The guards all exchanged knowing glances, understanding that Yuwen Huaji had been reprimanded and punished by His Majesty upon entering.

As the saying goes, serving a ruler is like serving a tiger; even someone as powerful as Yuwen Huaji could only endure it.

This caused many to sigh with regret, but at the same time, many more wanted to see Yuwen Huaji fall from power.

The position of Commander of the Imperial Guards is something every Imperial Guard covets.

That's the head of all the Imperial Guards.

They all want to improve!
