Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

The next day.

"Lord Qin," Yue Buqun said, cupping his hands, "the dead cannot be brought back to life. Please accept my condolences regarding Young Hero Zhang's passing."

"Sigh," Qin Han sighed.

His face held just the right amount of sadness. "My return to Lingjiu Palace this time is not only to handle palace affairs, but also to mobilize manpower. The grudge against Brother Wuji cannot go unavenged."

Linghu Chong looked at Qin Han with admiration in his eyes, completely unaware that he was still on the other's death list.

He stepped forward and said, "Brother Qin, if you have time in the future, you must come to Mount Hua to have a drink with me."

"Definitely." Qin Han gave Linghu Chong a meaningful look.

He bid a simple farewell to everyone at Mount Hua.

Qin Han rode his horse all the way towards Bright Summit.

After nightfall, we entered the town and found an inconspicuous inn to stay in.

Not long after.

A dark figure appeared in the room, and the newcomer knelt on one knee: "Lord."

"Get up," Qin Han said calmly, gazing at the night outside the window. "How did things go?"

The shadowy figure respectfully reported: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the people from the Thirty-Six Caves and Seventy-Two Islands, led by Boss Wu, are searching everywhere for traces of the Green Robe Pavilion."

Within the territory of the Southern Song Dynasty, anything associated with the Qingyi Tower had begun to be eradicated.

"Hmm, these are just small fry, enough to impress Wudang and Emei." Qin Han said with a playful tone.

"We don't need to worry about the real headquarters of the Green Robe Pavilion; let those reputable sects handle it themselves."

As he spoke, he picked up a letter from the table and handed it over.

"There are two names on this. One is Yu Canghai, the leader of the Qingcheng Sect. The other is Lin Pingzhi, a disciple of the Huashan Sect."

The shadowy figure took it, glanced at it, and memorized the name.

"Issue my order: have Lady Mochou personally lead a group to Qingcheng Mountain in Sichuan," Qin Han commanded calmly.

"Slaughter the entire Qingcheng Sect."

"Yes," the figure in black bowed in response.

They already knew that their lord had taken the Red Serpent Fairy Li Mochou as his wife; only their lord had the ability to subdue such a female demon.

For Lingjiu Palace, wiping out the Qingcheng Sect was nothing, especially since it was led by Li Mochou, a professional killer.

"After it's over, have someone send Yu Canghai's head to the Lin family's old residence in Xiangyang Lane, Fuzhou Prefecture, Fujian. That man named Lin Pingzhi will go to collect it then."

Qin Han continued, "Make sure things are done cleanly. Even a dog should be killed. Don't leave any clues pointing to Lingjiu Palace."

"Understood."

"In addition, select two experts from the nine departments to keep a close eye on Lin Pingzhi." Qin Han tapped the table lightly with his fingers.

"Record everything he does afterward, but don't interfere in anything he does. Just report to me once a month."

Qin Han wanted to see how Lin Pingzhi would perform afterward.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Finally," Qin Han said, looking out the window towards the southwest.

"I will be making a trip to Bright Summit soon. Have the people there prepare a map of the route."

The figure in black visibly flinched. Was the Lord going to the Ming Cult headquarters?

That's a den of dragons and tigers.

But he dared not ask any further questions, and simply replied, "I will take care of it immediately."

After the Lord finished giving his instructions, he relayed Li Canghai's message: "Lord, the First Madam asked me to inquire whether you require any assistance in taking care of you?"

"No need." Qin Han recognized the First Madam as his beloved uncle, Li Canghai.

Currently, Lingjiu Palace possesses the treasures of Tianning Temple, and without Li Canghai overseeing it, he is truly uneasy.

There have been several women along the way, but only this kind uncle is qualified to be called the First Madam.

A warm smile appeared on his face: "Please don't worry about me, Madam. Having too many people on this trip would only be a hindrance; it's more convenient for me to go alone."

He planned to sneak into Bright Peak before the six major sects besieged it, to find the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.

Putting aside the dangers involved, it's best if as few people as possible know about the secret passages and divine skills of the Ming Cult.

Now that he is at the Grandmaster level, possessing the Northern Darkness Divine Art, the Xiaoyao Sect's ultimate techniques, and the Blood Drinking Mad Saber, even if he encounters a Grandmaster, the outcome is still uncertain.

The Ming Cult now only has Grandmasters at most. After Yang Dingtian died, not a single Grandmaster has emerged. There is no one who can advance but not retreat.

"Go."

"Your subordinate takes his leave." The dark figure flashed and disappeared into the night.

The room returned to silence.

Qin Han poured himself a cup of tea.

Lin Pingzhi has already made his move, and Yue Buqun, that hypocrite, will eventually fall into the trap himself.

He didn't intend to change the plot; the story of him secretly learning the Lin family's Evil-Repelling Sword Manual would continue.

The fortunes of the Huashan Sect, Yue Lingshan, Ning Zhongze, and Linghu Chong...

These are things that will eventually be in my possession.

I picked up the teacup and took a sip.

After letting go, feel the abundant Northern Darkness True Qi within your body, and the restless 'dragon pattern' under your skin.

After killing Zhang Wuji, the dragon tattoo was mostly completed, with only the final dragon tail remaining.

"No rush, take it slow," Qin Han whispered.

If we say that fortune is the pinnacle a person can reach in the future, then Qin Shi Huang, who unified China, was an example of fortune that was unparalleled throughout history.

However, even at the pinnacle of success, fortune is indispensable. Only the First Emperor himself knew the hardships and setbacks he faced along the way, and that is the reason for the importance of "fortune".

For example, Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma. Without a capable and virtuous wife, even if Zhu Yuanzhang had the destiny and good fortune, and the so-called personal charisma, he would never have had a smooth journey.

In short, it is necessary to plunder the "luck" of famous people to enrich oneself.

Because that is the key to reaching a higher level; otherwise, if one's virtue does not match one's position, even if one truly becomes emperor, a meteorite might fall from the sky and kill one day.

It is also necessary to marry or even subdue female protagonists with names and surnames, because it can add their "luck" to Qin Han, making his journey smoother.

There won't be any dramatic or unfortunate events.

Take Li Canghai as an example to illustrate this point. Having a powerful confidante can perfectly take care of your rear, so you only need to keep moving forward.

"We should first obtain the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth from the Ming Cult before considering anything else. This time, the siege of Bright Peak by the six major sects seems to be led by Emei, but there are many deeper issues involved."

"Cheng Kun, the mastermind behind this, is probably planting explosives right now. This is precisely Zhao Min, the leader of the Ruyang Prince's Mansion, officially stepping into the Central Plains for the first time."

"But Brother Wuji, you can go in peace. You wouldn't dare touch the Four Beauties of Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber, so I, your elder brother, will take care of it for you..."

Thinking that he was orchestrating things from God's perspective, Qin Han really wanted to see what would happen when the six major sects finally managed to capture Bright Peak, only to find themselves as the leader of the Ming Cult.

How interesting must those people's expressions have been?

Especially that old nun who was exterminated, I bet she must have been furious.

Perhaps Zhou Zhiruo should also be forced to swear an oath that she will never have any further dealings with Leader Qin?

Unfortunately, Zhou Zhiruo has now become just like him...

Thinking of something interesting, Qin Han couldn't help but smile.
