While writing a diary at Zongwu, Wang Yuyan falls in love with someone else.

Is her godfather still alive if he's being targeted by a promising and ruthless man?

Thinking of this, Shangguan Haitang felt increasingly uneasy, and her hands holding the copy of the diary trembled slightly.

She stared intently at the page, praying silently.

Unfortunately, she was destined not to get what she wanted.

Zhu Wushi is a character in the TV series "The World's Finest," and also its main antagonist.

[At the same time, he is also one of the most devoted and ruthless heroes in the history of martial arts.]

The story begins in his youth.

At that time, there was a "mischievous and invincible boy" named Gu Santong in the martial arts world. By chance, he inherited two great martial arts techniques from the Eccentric Hero of Tianchi: the Absorption Technique and the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill.

So he spread the word, inviting everyone in the martial arts world to search for the treasure, but unfortunately, no one could find the right place.

Gu Santong found it uninteresting, so he personally took matters into his own hands and led Zhu Wushi, who had been traveling there, to the burial site of the Strange Hero of Tianchi.

There, Zhu Wushi saw two secret manuals and chose the "Absorption Technique," while Gu Santong took the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill."

The reason for this choice is that the cover of the "Invincible Vajra Divine Skill" manual states: "Practice with a virgin's body."

The "Absorption Technique" is something that cannot be practiced by someone who is not a virgin.

Zhu Wushi was born into the Ming Dynasty royal family and lost his virginity at a young age, so he could only cultivate the "Absorption Technique".

Of course, this restriction on whether someone is a child or not doesn't actually exist. It was just something Gu Santong added secretly, out of mischief, and then he pretended to be stupid to fool Zhu into ignoring it.

He was overjoyed to see Zhu Wushi get scammed.

The women were speechless; they couldn't believe there were such cheeky people in the world.

Most people who obtain secret martial arts manuals will keep them hidden and dare not let anyone know until they have mastered them.

Requesting flowers (or flowers)

They wanted to keep it all for themselves, but were also afraid of getting into trouble.

This ancient trio, however, deliberately went against the grain, as if afraid others wouldn't know.

His motivation for doing this was simply that he thought it would be fun!

An invincible mischievous boy?

Whether he is truly invincible is another matter, but the title "mischievous boy" is certainly fitting.

Gu Santong and Zhu Wushi originally had a good relationship, but they became enemies because of a woman named Su Xin.

Su Xin is Gu Santong's fiancée. Once, she came looking for Gu Santong, but he was too busy to pick her up, so he asked Zhu Wushi to do it for her.

Unexpectedly, Zhu Wushi fell in love with this gentle woman at first sight.

Gu Santong was playful and fond of martial arts, which led him to neglect Su Xin and even completely disregard her.

.. ...... ...

Zhu Wushi, deeply in love, seized the opportunity to marry Su Xin, but was rejected by the royal family and court officials because of his lowly status.

Zhu Wushi harbored resentment because of this and vowed to sit on the dragon throne himself and freely control everything.

Meanwhile, in order to possess Su Xin, Zhu Wushi also framed Gu Santong, making him a public enemy of the martial arts world.

He himself then stepped in at the opportune moment to stage a great performance of subduing demons and eliminating evil, and sacrificing his own family for the greater good, thus gaining both fame and fortune.

[But fate played a cruel trick. In the final battle with Gu Santong, Zhu Wushi accidentally injured Su Xin, causing her to be on the verge of death.]

Until the story of "The World's Finest" officially began, Su Xin relied on a Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom to sustain her life.

[Zhu Wushi, however, remained steadfast in his devotion. While plotting to usurp the throne, he secretly searched for the remaining two Heavenly Fragrance Beans in an attempt to revive Su Xin, even remaining single for nearly twenty years for this purpose!]

At this moment, Shangguan Haitang was no longer worried, but terrified!

Not only was it her godfather who ambushed Jiang Sishui, but he was also the main villain in the story.

And this major villain actually wanted to rebel and become emperor!

"No way! My godfather is loyal and righteous, how could he possibly commit such a treasonous act? He must be mistaken!"

"Even if the adoptive father in the story is really like that, he would definitely be different in reality, just like it's ridiculous that Guo Xiang is the founder of Emei Sect."

"Yes! That must be the case!"

Shangguan Haitang kept encouraging herself.

However, something involuntarily came to her mind—

She never knew what martial art her adoptive father practiced; it remained a mystery.

It seemed like something that couldn't be told to anyone.

106. Youth never fades, it is born from death.

It has to be said, Zhu Wushi is a ruthless person.

Since he lost his virginity so early, it means he was interested in women.

But ever since he met Su Xin, he has remained aloof from women, and this has continued for many years.

[After experiencing the sweetness and tasting the marrow, being able to restrain one's desires is something few normal men in the world can do, and I am no exception.]

That's why I admire him.

In contrast, Gu Santong unexpectedly slept with Su Xin, took her virginity, and then left the very next morning.

[And this departure lasted for nearly a year, without even knowing that Su Xin was pregnant and had given birth to his son.]

Isn't this the epitome of a scumbag?

From this perspective, Gu Santong isn't even worthy of carrying Zhu Wushi's shoes.

Even at the end of the story, Zhu Wushi had already succeeded, but Su Xin's suicide shattered his spirit and beliefs, leading to his failure and death after achieving his goal of "293".

[Pitiful and tragic]

He turned against his brother for the sake of a woman.

He abstained from women for nearly twenty years for the sake of one woman.

For the sake of a woman, his years of painstaking planning for imperial power were all in vain, and he even lost his life.

Upon seeing this, all the women fell silent.

Then came another sigh.

Would Jiang Sishui really describe him as a "devoted and ruthless hero"?

However, reality is not the same as television dramas. In the drama, Zhu Wushi was able to ascend the throne primarily because he possessed unparalleled strength.

That's his greatest source of confidence!

In this world of martial arts, his strength is truly insufficient; his hopes are extremely slim.

So Zhu Wushi probably isn't that overconfident, right?

"Definitely not!"

Jiang Sishui was still uncertain, but Shangguan Haitang was eager to make a final judgment on him.

After all, in her eyes, Zhu Wushi had always been a shining example of integrity and righteousness, and she really didn't want to accept a treacherous and cunning adoptive father.

The night before last, I saw Zhu Wushi in the "Precious Illusion Array". There was a man in white next to him, who looked like a master of array formations.

However, they still underestimated the "Precious Illusion Array".

[If Wu Yazi hadn't been exhausted and his "annihilation of all directions" power hadn't dissipated after his death, there might have been two more corpses in the illusion array.]

Later, Zhu Wushi did not appear at the "Zhenlong Chess Gathering," which made me even more certain that he had ulterior motives for coming to Leigu Mountain.

That's why I've always been on guard against him.

[And I suspect he's mostly after the "Northern Darkness Divine Art"]

After all, his "Absorption Technique" is also a martial art that can absorb other people's internal energy, so we can perhaps find some evidence and inspiration from it.

Both of these martial arts styles have their own strengths.

The "Northern Darkness Divine Skill" is an authentic Taoist martial art. It is extremely efficient at absorbing and utilizing true energy, with virtually no waste and no hidden dangers.

In addition, the "Northern Darkness True Qi" is powerful and domineering; it can be extremely cold or extremely hot; it automatically protects the body when attacked; it greatly enhances lightness skills and resistance to poison; and it can even be used to master different styles of martial arts without having to learn special internal energy cultivation methods.

[By the way, this skill can also keep one's appearance young, which is why many people in the past mistakenly regarded the "Northern Darkness Divine Skill" as a method of cultivating immortality.]

However, the original work never said anything like that; the idea of ​​cultivating immortality is just wishful thinking.

If you're talking about eternal youth, the Yihua Palace's "Mingyu Skill" is an option, along with "Wedding Dress Divine Skill," "Heavenly Demon Great Art," and "Childlike Heart True Scripture," among others.

Even the "Jade Maiden Heart Sutra" of the Ancient Tomb Sect can beautify and preserve youth.

"Beauty and anti-aging, forever young!" Many women's eyes lit up.

Time is the most intractable weapon, and the years are a woman's greatest enemy. No matter how beautiful or stunning you are, you will eventually grow old and lose your beauty.

No one wants to see themselves looking old and frail.

Especially a beautiful woman.

Therefore, they were all tempted after seeing the series of ageless martial arts techniques listed by Jiang Sishui.
