Cao Cao's soul transmigrates into Murong Fu's body

"A'Zhu, A'Zi is now a disciple of the Xingxiu Sect. She was hunted down by the entire Xingxiu Sect a few days ago, but now she has joined my Murong family. As the head of the family, I must protect her. I have already reached an alliance agreement with Ding Chunqiu. We will stand together at the Heroes' Gathering!"

A'Zhu thought that Murong Fu had no choice but to agree to the Xingxiu Sect's conditions in order to protect A'Zi from being hunted down, and couldn't help but worry, "My lord, Ding Chunqiu's Xingxiu Sect doesn't have a very good reputation in the Central Plains martial arts world. If we join forces with the Xingxiu Sect, won't it affect the prestige of our Gusu Murong family?"

Now, the Murong family of Gusu has not been wronged by the various things about Xiao Feng, and Cao Cao has personally come to the Beggars' Sect in Luoyang to resolve this series of events.

Therefore, the reputation of the Murong family of Gusu has not only been solidified, but has also begun to occupy the top spot in the martial arts world's fame rankings.

Most importantly, Qiao Feng has now become Xiao Feng, a Khitan who is hated by everyone. Moreover, with the rumors spread by Quan Guanqing of the Beggar Clan in the martial arts world, Xiao Feng has been blacklisted.

The core purpose of the heroes' gathering held at Shaolin Temple was to discuss how to deal with Xiao Feng. However, what they didn't know was that Xiao Yuanshan was more than happy to do so.

In this way, Xiao Yuanshan can publicly reveal his identity as the leader in front of all martial arts practitioners.

Furthermore, although this so-called leader may appear respectable and hold a high position in the martial arts world, he is actually doing despicable things!

"Duan Yu, bring out my Living Sword Manual! I'm about to succeed!"

A Tibetan monk speaking broken Chinese shouted loudly outside the door, attracting onlookers from the vicinity.

"Father, Kumārajīva is catching up!"

"They're like a persistent ghost! By the way, you just said you taught our Duan family's ultimate technique, the Six Meridians Divine Sword, to Kumārajīva?"

"I taught him the guiding method in reverse, but I didn't expect Kumārajīva's martial arts talent to be so strong that he actually succeeded in cultivating it in reverse!"

"Kumārajīva is indeed formidable. Now that he has mastered the Six Meridians Divine Sword, he is even more reckless. It seems that Murong Fu will have to make a move."

Standing beside Duan Zhengchun, Ruan Xingzhu felt increasingly uneasy as he listened. He realized that the Duan Zhengchun he loved had actually been living under the protection of others.

His so-called reputation in the martial arts world only relied on the remaining influence of the Dali Duan family. When he really encountered problems, he often had to rely on others.

This is true when encountering the Four Evils, it is true when encountering Ding Chunqiu, and it is also true when encountering the current Tibetan national teacher, Kumārajīva.

Kumārajīva not only captured and abused his own son, but now he has come to their door to attack them. Duan Zhengchun actually doesn't want to fight back, but instead seeks external help.

No wonder Duan Yanqing looked down on the Duan brothers, Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun; he probably felt that their governing philosophy had been too weak in recent years.

Therefore, Duan Yanqing was thinking of regaining the throne of Dali and then firmly controlling Dali's military power, financial power, and personnel appointment power.

Duan Yanqing wanted to build a prosperous and powerful country!

This is also the sole purpose for Crown Prince Yanqing to return to Dali!

Duan Yanqing wanted to do things, even though he was disabled, he still wanted to serve the people, but his methods were a bit radical.

Furthermore, his reputation as one of the Four Evils was not conducive to his power.

Reputation is the most important factor in establishing a country. Therefore, in addition to promoting the reputation of Murong Fu as the Southern Murong in the Central Plains, Cao Cao also expanded his influence in other areas.

It hasn't yielded any benefits yet, but Cao Cao believes that all these investments are worthwhile.

When Ruan Xingzhu felt disgust, this feeling would intensify.

"Xingzhu, where are you going? It's dangerous outside!"

"I'm going to check on my daughter."

Ruan Xingzhu felt that Duan Zhengchun still loved his son. After the two talked about being captured by Kumachi in the room, they couldn't stop talking.

Having learned of Kumārajīva's extraordinary martial arts talent, Duan Yu admired him greatly, but was also quite afraid. So he hid in his room and didn't come out. The three giants of Tianlong were nothing special after all.

On the other hand, Ruan Xingzhu, standing on the second floor, saw Murong Fu and Kumārajīva confronting each other, and was still very worried.

"I am Murong Fu from Gusu. May I ask if you are the Tibetan National Preceptor, Kumārajīva?"

"So you are Murong Fu? Greetings, sir. A few days ago, I obtained the living manual of the Six Meridians Divine Sword from Tianlong Temple and took it to Suzhou, intending to cremate the body at the grave of Elder Murong. Little did I know that the servants of your Murong family would collude with outsiders to deceive me!"

"A'Zhu, is the Imperial Preceptor telling the truth?"

Murong Fu was talking to A Zhu and A Zi, even though it was their first time meeting.

But blood is thicker than water, and they still get along very well. Azi had no one to rely on since she was a child, but now she has her lord and her own sister, and they can talk about anything.

Unexpectedly, a Tibetan monk had barged in, so Azi glared fiercely at Kumārajīva, wondering if she should use her power-dissolving technique to deflate Kumārajīva's arrogance.

However, seeing that her lord seemed to be very polite to Kumārajīva, and that Kumārajīva also mentioned having some connection with the Murong family, Azi stood quietly by her side, which was quite unusual.

"Reporting to my lord, A'Zhu only helped the Grand Preceptor because she saw that he was being too arrogant. How could anyone use a living person as a sacrifice? That's too cruel."

"Because of my momentary carelessness, Master Kurong of Tianlong Temple burned the sword manual, and Duan Yu was present at the time. Therefore, in order to keep my promise, I took Duan Yu to Yanziwu..."

After listening for a while, Cao Cao asked Kumārajīva to sit down and personally poured him a cup of tea. The two drank and talked, and the tense atmosphere dissipated immediately.

The main point is that when the Grand Preceptor, Kumārajīva, who had seen many grand occasions, first met this so-called Southern Murong, he found that Murong Fu's imposing presence was something even Kumārajīva had to consider.

Given his relationship with Murong Bo, Kumārajīva wasn't in a hurry to settle scores; he wanted to see what the legendary Southern Murong had to say.

"The Imperial Preceptor is a true role model for us all, but sacrificing a living person is still unacceptable. I appreciate your intentions on behalf of my father, Murong Bo. Moreover, I know that the Imperial Preceptor possesses astonishing martial arts talent and has already mastered the Six Meridians Divine Sword, but..."

"Shaoze Sword!" Kumārajīva accumulated the Taoist Lesser Formless Skill, and a black sword aura shot out from his right little finger, instantly splitting the chair in two!

"That Tibetan monk has no shame! So the ritual of offering the Living Sword Manual was a pretense; his real intention was to steal the Six Meridians Divine Sword technique!"

Ah Zi muttered something to herself, thankfully Kumārajīva didn't hear it, otherwise Kumārajīva's anger would have caused trouble for Cao Cao.

Cao Cao also knew that Kumārajīva was an extreme martial arts fanatic, and that the strongest people in the world could obtain all the martial arts classics, which was how Kumārajīva viewed things.

"The Imperial Preceptor is indeed formidable. He has actually opened up the meridians of the Shaoze acupoint and mastered the flexible and versatile Shaoze Sword. However, didn't you notice that the direction of the internal energy flow is reversed?"

"What advice does Young Master Murong have for me?"

"It's not so much about giving pointers, but I did notice that the Imperial Preceptor's internal energy was not circulating correctly when he was using the Shaoze Sword. Forcing it to go against the flow could easily lead to qi deviation."

The reason why the Murong family is so concerned about the Six Meridians Divine Sword manual is because the Murong family's collection of books contains a general outline of the Six Meridians Divine Sword.

Therefore, Cao Cao also had some insights into the Six Meridians Divine Sword and wanted to discuss it with Kumārajīva.
