"Send it to Qin Chuan."

His voice echoed in Shangguan Yunque's ears, but his figure disappeared into the Hidden Weapon Pavilion.

Although there was no one in front of him, Shangguan Yunque still bowed respectfully before stepping back.

"When will the Young Marshal be able to make decisions for the Bad Guys?"

He sighed inwardly, desperately hoping that Qin Chuan could take over from Yuan Tiangang as soon as possible and end his precarious existence.

Zhongnan Mountain is not far from Luoyang City.

Less than a day later, Qin Chuan received a letter from Yuan Tiangang.

"You want me to keep the Longquan sword safe?"

After glancing at the contents of the letter, Qin Chuan finally realized that the old geezer was indeed testing him.

Even with such impeccable credentials, Yuan Tiangang was still uneasy. No wonder so many kings and generals were on Yuan Tiangang's kill list in the original timeline.

"That old codger is so suspicious!"

Qin Chuan inwardly cried out in trouble, but he was also mentally prepared.

In the world of Bad Guys, the ultimate test he will face is Yuan Tiangang.

In Yuan Tiangang's heart, the only ruler of the Li Tang dynasty could be Li Xingyun.

But Li Xingyun's ambitions lay elsewhere; he only wished to live a carefree life.

Qin Chuan naturally didn't want to be Zhuge Liang and forcefully support this Li Adou.

He wanted to emulate Emperor Guangwu (Liu Xiu), start afresh, revitalize the Tang Dynasty, and restore its golden age.

This would inevitably lead to a confrontation with Yuan Tiangang.

"Master! The Underworld Emperor's intention is for the two of us to go to Yuzhou City to seize the Dragon Spring Sword."

At this moment, the Black and White Impermanence returned after meeting with Zhu Yougui.

"He is quite clever."

Qin Chuan nodded slightly.

All the feudal lords in the world are eyeing the Longquan Sword. If the Xuanming Sect mobilizes its forces, it will surely attract many other forces to fight for it. At the very least, the Tongwen Hall and Huanyin Pavilion will definitely come.

The combined actions of Chang Haoling and Chang Xuanling will have a surprising effect.

"Do as he says."

Qin Chuan nodded to them.

"What should we do after we obtain the Dragon Spring Sword?"

Chang Haoling and Chang Xuanling were still unwilling to hand over the Longquan Sword to Zhu Yougui.

As for how to snatch the Longquan Sword from Lu Youjie, that was not a problem for them.

Lu Youjie is only at the Great Star level, how can he stop them from joining forces?

Qin Chuan smiled but remained silent.

The two of them were overthinking things. With him taking action, even if the entire Xuanming Sect came out, they wouldn't be able to snatch the Longquan Sword.

Qin Chuan waved his hand slightly, and a gentle stream of true energy sent the Black and White Impermanence out of the courtyard.

"Big brother, what exactly does Master mean?"

Chang Xuanling looked at Chang Haoling with a puzzled expression.

The two are not only fellow disciples, but also sworn siblings.

"Since Master hasn't given any instructions, that means we're leaving it to us to make our own decisions."

Chang Haoling stroked his chin, trying to fathom Qin Chuan's thoughts:

"Little sister, what do you think we should do with the Longquan Sword?"

"Anyway, it won't be given to Zhu Yougui!"

Chang Xuanling gave a soft hum, then thought for a moment and said:

"Although our master doesn't think much of the Longquan Sword, as his disciples, we still have to show him respect, right?"

"You and I are thinking the same thing."

Chang Haoling chuckled:

"Once we get the Longquan Sword, we'll tell Zhu Yougui that it was stolen by a master from the Bad Guys, and then secretly hand it over to our master."

"Big brother is the smartest!"

Chang Xuanling nodded repeatedly as she listened.

The two were filled with anticipation.

Zhu Yougui led them into hell, and they hated him intensely.

Their master was protecting them in hell, and they were filled with gratitude and affection, always wanting to do something in return.

This is a golden opportunity!

"I didn't teach my two apprentices in vain."

In the courtyard, Qin Chuan smiled slightly.

Such is the nature of the Black and White Impermanence; they are vengeful and vindictive, yet to some extent, they are also extremely loyal and affectionate.

That is precisely their shining point.

"Unfortunately, I will have to disappoint you all this time."

Qin Chuan put on the ghost mask, and his voice became cold and piercing, sending chills down people's spines.

Chapter 17 Every bush and tree seems like an enemy soldier; impermanence strikes!

Yuzhou is the Chongqing of later generations.

Located in the Sichuan Basin, this place is remote, yet far removed from the wars and conflicts of the Central Plains, thus avoiding the ravages of war.

At this time, the sun was high in the sky, and the city of Yuzhou was bustling with people, giving one the feeling that one's sleeves could become clouds and one's sweat could become rain.

"This is how the world should be."

Qin Chuan, dressed in a black outfit, walked down the long street and gave a slight sigh of admiration.

Since arriving in the world of Bad Guys, he has visited many large cities, but none of them have seemed as peaceful and prosperous as Yuzhou, seemingly untouched by worldly strife.

Perhaps only Fengxiang under the rule of the Empress can rival Yuzhou.

"A golden age..."

In a short time, Qin Chuan's belief in restoring the Tang Dynasty's golden age became even stronger.

The world is now engulfed in war and chaos.

This was only the beginning of a chaotic era.

When the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period truly arrived, countless people would lose their homes and become displaced.

The starving people and the forced cannibalism are not even a fraction of the suffering during this period.

Even worse, the tragedy of the Five Barbarian Invasions might be repeated on the land of China.

This is not alarmist.

As a time traveler, Qin Chuan was very familiar with the course of history.

During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, the northern nomadic tribes took advantage of the internal turmoil in the Central Plains to seize control of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yan and Yun.

This led to the later Song Dynasty's weakness, earning it the nickname "Great Song".

Then came the rise of the Mongols, the Battle of Yamen, and the near extinction of China.

It wasn't until a cowherd, holding a broken bowl, established the Ming Dynasty that the world was turned around and the order was restored.

During these chaotic centuries, countless Chinese people shed blood and tears.

"When poor, one should cultivate one's own virtue; when successful, one should benefit all under heaven..."

Qin Chuan muttered to himself:

"Li Xingyun, go live your life of leisure and freedom, I will end this chaotic world!"

He put aside his thoughts for the moment, stepped into an inn, and sat down by the window.

This inn is not large, with two floors and seven or eight tables.

There weren't many guests present.

Besides Qin Chuan, there were only three others.

One of the middle-aged men with a beard was Lu Youjie.

Sitting beside him were two people, one adult and one child, his daughter Lu Linxuan and his servant Lu Ji.

As Qin Chuan sat down, Lu Youjie immediately cast a scrutinizing glance at him.

Lu Ji even placed his hand on the long sword at his waist, ready to make a move at any moment.

Only Lu Linxuan, that little brat, was still fiddling with the bowls and chopsticks, giggling.

Qin Chuan raised his glass from afar to express his goodwill.

Lu Youjie raised his glass in return, but he remained vigilant in the slightest.

At this point, he was extremely suspicious of everything.

It is unknown who spread the news that the Longquan Sword was in their possession throughout the martial arts world.

As a result, he was relentlessly pursued by various factions.

He brought his daughter and servants to the remote Sichuan region, far from the Central Plains, intending to seek refuge with his sworn brother, Yang Shuzi, and retire from the world.

"Master, should I go and test this man's true strength?"

Lu Ji asked in a low voice.
