Cultivation of the Empress of Comprehensive Martial Arts

"Everyone! The imperial court is determined to destroy us. It is a critical moment, and we should fight against the enemy together." Wudang Taoist Mu immediately persuaded his colleagues around him.

As a hidden senior conspirator, although this matter doesn't have much to do with him.But he immediately wanted to understand the seriousness of the problem.Although the matter in front of him was not provoked by him, it was obvious that the other party wanted to kill them.

Since he was hunted down, he should not obediently wait for death.

In an instant, the other masters present stepped forward, ready to take down the two in front of them first.The eight masters made their moves together, but... it was two white-haired old men who bumped into them head-on.

Chapter 362 The real black hand

In the secluded valley, it was already in chaos.The sound of killing and cutting by swords and swords reverberated in the valley, and with the splash of blood, people kept falling down.This place has turned into a small battlefield.

The eight martial arts masters at the scene were about to take down Dugu Xin and Zhong Xu, but at the critical moment, they were blocked by two old men who appeared suddenly.And they used to be called...

"Sword Spring and Autumn—Meng Xin." After being repelled by a blow, Lonely Crane felt the numbness in his hands, and his eyes revealed fear.

"Fengshenzhang-Xiadu." Taoist Mu also said the name of the person he and the three of them were fighting against.

Meng Xin, Xia Du, more than ten years ago, both of them were master masters who became famous in the world.The former is world-famous for his sword and sword, while the latter is for his sharp palms.However, one day they disappeared from the rivers and lakes, and many people thought they were dead.

However, it now appears that not only did they not die, but their skills soared and they became great masters.The defense formed by the two is like an iron wall, with one against three, plus the other two grandmasters, the eight grandmasters cannot go any further.

"Unexpectedly, there are still people in Jianghu who remember my name." Meng Xin said calmly while waving his sword.

click!

Dugu Yihe's sword double kill was blocked by the opponent's single-handed sword, and sparks flew everywhere in an instant.

"Why do people like you join the Dugu family?" Dugu Yihe asked loudly.

"Naturally, it's to go further. You want to shake the rules of this world. It's simply a car." Meng Xin exerted force in her hands.

A beam of sword energy came out in response to the sound, repelling Dugu Yihe, and then swirling the sword to chop off Zuo Lengchan's sword.Then the chaos started again.

No one dared to get close to the battlefield between the grand master and the grand master. In contrast, the disciples of other sects went crazy and wanted to rush towards the valley, and even grabbed Zhong Xu.Then collided with the army that followed, and started a tragic slaughter.

Taking advantage of this chaotic situation, Zhong Xu and Dugu Xin escaped smoothly.However, as a price, the guards originally used to protect the two of them, and even the two Grand Masters were left behind to stop the pursuers.Otherwise, the two of them would never have had the chance to leave.

Not to mention the others, Xue Qianye alone can take down the two of them.Even they have thought of any way.For example, cut off the legs and the like.As long as they're alive anyway.

After the two left alone, they quickly went to the refuge that had been discussed in advance.Running quickly through twists and turns, in a hidden cave, they walked through the cave, and they came to a valley with beautiful scenery. There was a small wooden house in front of them. The two people who were still in shock finally saw Yuan Tiangang in front of the house.

"Why launched the attack in advance? Do you want to kill us?" Zhong Xu immediately questioned Yuan Tiangang loudly after sitting at the stone table.

Their original plan was that even if they failed to frame Xue Qianye, they could still pretend to be angry and leave the venue, and when the time came, people would seal the door with all their strength, and then burn everyone in the valley to death.Even if you are a master of martial arts, it is impossible to survive the fire.

But the early attack disrupted the plan, and it was obviously impossible to set off the fire again.And the two great masters were also entangled, so naturally it was impossible to block the door.The whole plan is messed up.

"My lord, please calm down. I'm worried that if I don't do anything, my lord may be captured by Xue Qianye at that time, so I asked General Lu Chang to launch an attack in advance." Yuan Tiangang responded calmly.

Faced with this reason, the two didn't say anything.They picked up the wine on the table and poured each a glass, but they didn't drink it right away.

"Mr. Yuan's thinking is not unreasonable. Zhou Zhiruo is not dead, which proves that Xue Qianye came prepared. He may even take the initiative to wait for us to be fooled. Speaking of it, thanks to Mr. Yuan's suggestion to bring a great master, Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous." Dugu Xin didn't blame him too much.

For him, this time things have developed like this, although the result is not satisfactory, but at least it is much better than them falling into Xue Qianye's hands.

"Hmph!" Zhong Xu didn't say anything after hearing this.

If it was someone else, he was sure that the other party would not dare to keep them.But Xue Qianye, he also dared to conclude that the other party would definitely take them down.

"Let's forget it this time." Thinking of this, Zhong Xu picked up the wine glass and drank it to suppress his shock.

Gu "Thank you, my lord."

"It's really a miscalculation this time. I didn't expect Xue Qianye to be more difficult to deal with than imagined." Dugu Xin also picked up the wine glass and took a sip.

The three were silent for a long time, and after a while, Zhong Xu spoke again.

"Now, what are you going to do with the aftermath?"

The most urgent task now is to find a way to deal with the aftermath. Although the plan was not completely successful, it was half successful.If the action continues, Zhong Xu believes that Yuan Tiangang will have a solution.

"I've already thought about the aftermath. It's just that I need to ask the two sons to lend me something before I can finish it." Yuan Tiangang said calmly.

"One thing?" Dugu Xin inexplicably felt something was wrong.

"The heads of the two."

The moment the words fell, Yuan Tiangang made a sudden move.With both fingers out, two black sword breaths suddenly sprayed out, which is the body-shattering invisible sword energy.In an instant, the hearts of Zhong Xu and Dugu Xin were penetrated.The two of them didn't even have the slightest reaction.

"You! Dare!" The corner of Zhong Xu's mouth showed a trace, and he slowly raised his hand, but he was still pointing at Yuan Tiangang, and he was unable to hang down.

Until their deaths, neither of them could believe that Yuan Tiangang dared to do this.At the last moment before they died, they didn't even understand why the other party did this.

"This, is the last step of this plan. Let you die in the hands of Xue Qianye." After saying that, Yuan Tiangang doubled his hands.

Two black sword breaths flew over, and the heads of the two of them fell to the ground immediately, and their bodies fell powerlessly from the chairs. The blood on the ground reflected Yuan Tiangang's extremely cold face.The reason why he knows so much about the body-shattering invisible sword qi is because he knows this skill himself.

However, at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded behind Yuan Tiangang.

"Hey! So the real scapegoat is here, so I said why the previous arrangement was so childish. However, Xue Qianye has always treated people with sincerity, but people have not returned sincerity. It is really heartbreaking."

"You came faster than I thought." Yuan Tiangang turned his head and saw Xue Qianye not far behind him.

"Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of the small marks you left along the way? As a partner, I think it is necessary for us to meet once. Yes, meet. Otherwise, with your confidence, you may temporarily have unrealistic ideas .” Xue Qianye smiled and approached slowly.After glancing at the two who had turned into two corpses, he opened his mouth and said.

"Cooperation? Have we ever cooperated?" Yuan Tiangang's eyes shrank, and his tone changed.

"Do you know why I accepted this provocation?" Xue Qianye answered the question with a question.

"Because you are too confident, so confident that you almost want to die."

"That's just one aspect. On the other hand, I know you will definitely send the two of them to me. The target of this game was never me or them, but the seven people who are above you. "

The moment the words fell, Yuan Tiangang's icy face finally changed slightly.

"..."

"You still don't admit it, collaborator?" At this moment, Xue Qianye smiled.

Chapter 363 The Real Layout

Yuan Tiangang turned his head to look at Xue Qianye, at this too young boy, who he once thought was a young man who could be played with in the palm of his hand.

"How did you find out?" Yuan Tiangang asked lightly.His tone finally began to have a reciprocal gesture.

"In this chess game, you left too many clues. Let me start from the very beginning. When you found me as a pawn at the Qianlong Conference in Yangzhou, you immediately understood that you were hiding in the A certain plan in your heart can be activated. So the reason why you went to the Qianlong Conference was not to kill people, but to find the chess piece that can trigger the overall situation." Xue Qianye took a few steps closer, Lightly telling the real purpose of a certain old man.

They didn't have to go to the previous Qianlong Conference, because they didn't participate, and it had nothing to do with them, but Yuan Tiangang still went.The reason why he went was to find someone, to find a suitable enough enemy.

Although Zhong Xu and Dugu Xin are one of the seven surnames, they had no direct conflict with themselves before.So someone must have deliberately induced them to do so.Not surprisingly, that person is the one in front of me.

"You are so confident that the old man chose you?" Yuan Tiangang responded calmly.His last question was answered with a tone of affirmation.

At this moment, Yuan Tiangang already regards Xue Qianye as an opponent of the same level, so the answer to this question must be known by the other party.

"Because I'm smart enough to make the two of them feel threatened. After all, if the opponent is too stupid, then a series of mistakes after you will be seen to have ulterior motives. So you need a strong and intelligent enemy. In this way, Only your failure is reasonable. And the more you fail, the more pressure they will feel. So from that moment on, you took the initiative to provoke me to conflict with them." Xue Qianye said the most important reason.

Yuan Tiangang is a wise man, and his layout should not be too substandard, otherwise it will make people think that he has ulterior motives.But what is the best way for a wise man to make a mistake without arousing suspicion from his own side?

Find another wise man.Playing against it, his mistakes can be said to be beyond his capabilities.It's not that I can't do it, but that my opponent is too strong.All lapses will also be rationalized.This is one of the reasons why the other party chooses himself.

"But, I might just want to kill you as a threat." Yuan Tiangang continued to speak calmly.

"If this is the case, at the end of the big tide, the three masters will not have water-avoiding jade in their hands. They are abandoned children, from the beginning. Since they are abandoned children, the dead will be more useful than the living. Then Who are those three water-avoiding jades prepared for?"

After Xue Qianye finished speaking, Yuan Tiangang responded immediately.

"This may be a reward from the two sons, not something specially prepared for you."

"That's right! There is indeed a possibility. The two cherished subordinates also need them to master their respective sects. But you still have another weakness."

"..."

"Before returning to Shendu, I went to Yangzhou under the pseudonym Baili Xiaoxiang."

"It turns out that the problem is here." In an instant, Yuan Tiangang's expression seemed to understand.

"Those two bastards, they shouldn't be alive. But they survived. Although they themselves think it is luck and destiny, I don't think so. There is only one reason why they are alive, and that is because someone You want them to live. To see me alive. Because you have done everything right, I will be considered alive. If you can’t investigate the mastermind behind the scenes and don’t confront them, then your plan will be meaningless.”

Those two looked like their luck had exploded, they had been narrowly escaped, and they could always find a glimmer of life from the dead.But too many coincidences added together, it can only show that someone pushed this necessity.

"So you think those two people are the flaws I left on purpose." Hearing this, Yuan Tiangang's tone changed slightly.

"That's right! Even if I didn't go to Yangzhou, you would definitely lead them to me in the future. Originally, your plan should have been like this. However, Dugu Xin's behavior at the banquet revealed his identity on his own initiative. Although this is unexpected In addition, it is more beneficial to your plan. Because you have not only increased my threat, but you have not used those two bastards, you can completely withdraw from this matter, and will not arouse the slightest suspicion from the two of them. "

"..." Yuan Tiangang was silent.

Completely correct, without a trace of deviation.And since Xue Qianye can say this, it means that the other party has seen through his plan.

"It was from that moment that I understood that one of the people who wanted to deal with me wanted me to live, and that person was the ghost. But at this time, a problem would arise. Who is the ghost, and in the For whom?"

"Sure enough, I'm very smart. I'm one of His Majesty's Tianying Seven Guards, and I'm directly under His Majesty." Yuan Tiangang took out a black jade tablet with the word "Emperor" written on it.

However, just when Yuan Tiangang thought that his identity could fool Xue Qianye, Xue Qianye continued with a smile.

"You are not the emperor's man. After the tide, the emperor obviously didn't know that I was still alive, otherwise he would not want to marry Princess Wu Zhao. But you know because of the matter of Bishuiyu. If you are the emperor's man, he No one will be sent to find me."

The emperor obviously didn't know that he was alive at the time, even if he hadn't heard Zhao'er say it, he could still infer this fact from the emperor's behavior.Naturally, the person in front of him could not be the emperor's confidant.

"With such an affirmative tone, it seems that there is some secret between you and the emperor that I don't know. It should even be said that you are very important to the emperor, so important that he will not sacrifice you. So, the person behind Wu Zhao is indeed You." In an instant, Yuan Tiangang guessed a question from a long time ago through the affirmation in Xue Qianye's tone.

Whether Xue Qianye is the person behind Wu Zhao, this point has been doubted among the seven surnames.However, they were overthrown in the end.And there is only one key point: interests.

If Xue Qianye was the person behind Wu Zhao, then everything Wu Zhao owns now should have belonged to him.As long as he stands in the foreground, he can get everything openly. With the emperor around, it is impossible for them to deal with him by means of assassination.

But that person did not stand at the front desk. In Qi Xing's view, the only explanation was that that person had a reason for not being able to stand at the front desk.And Xue Qianye obviously didn't meet this point.Coupled with Xue Qianye's arrogant performance before, many people felt that Xue Qianye was just a shield for that person.

And now, Yuan Tiangang was finally convinced that Xue Qianye was that person.

"As expected of Yuan Tiangang, you know everything. It is precisely because of this that I am more convinced that you are not the emperor's man. You belong to a third-party force. It is this crucial information gap that may make your entire plan fail. Dongliu." Xue Qianye admitted this calmly.

Facing the person in front of him, there is no need to hide.

"My whole plan. How much do you know?" Yuan Tiangang's eyes flashed.At this moment, he finally felt the slightest pressure.

Chapter 364 Complete Version

"This plan was not used against me in the first place. On the surface, this time, it was through framing me to a point of destruction. But your real purpose is to guide the two of them from behind the scenes step by step through my threats. Front desk. That's why there was this public trial. And the purpose of the public trial is not me, but to make them public enemies of the martial arts." In the wind, Xue Qianye's words spread.

From the very beginning, the target of this game was not himself, but the two people over there.Even the two of them.

"..."

"Originally, your plan should have been to let them put me in hell first, and then they were not allowed to cooperate with you. And finally turned around. After that, the two of them became public enemies of the martial arts, and I would be secretly elected by you as the leader of the martial arts alliance to fight against the two. Daqi. Because of the framing, I will definitely do my best to kill the two families." Xue Qianye calmly described the real purpose of this plan.

In a sense, I was the tool the other party chose to use against the two of them from the very beginning.And once things develop according to his plan, then he will use all he has learned in his life to beat the Zhong family and the Dugu family to a point where they will never be restored.And this is exactly what the other party wants.

"I can't gain your trust." Yuan Tiangang said lightly.

"That's right, you won't gain my trust. But their existence can allow us to have a common goal. If the two of them died, you, as a close person around him, must not escape the guilt. At this time, you will get A reasonable reason to betray the Zhong family. And I shouldn't doubt your intentions. Then we will join hands to destroy the two families." Xue Qianye said the reason Yuan Tiangang had prepared for himself in advance.

The two died, Yuan Tiangang seriously dereliction of duty, even if he goes back now, he will die.Not to mention, the two masters and the two great masters in the valley.At that time, on the surface, Yuan Tiangang betrayed because he was afraid of punishment, but in fact this was his best reason.

Even if I don't trust each other when the time comes, the two can reach a consensus on this point.

"They are the second of seven surnames, and they have deep roots in the court."

"The seven surnames are just the seven surnames. Once they lose their official positions and are exiled to other places, they will be hostile by the people in the rivers and lakes. At that time, only a list is needed, and the power of martial arts can be used to deal with them. The battle between courts will also become The dispute between the rivers and lakes. Yes, it should have been like this."

The seven surnames seem to have deep roots, but once they lose their status in the court, people in the world will have no scruples.Killing them before was killing officials and making enemies of the entire imperial court, which had too much influence.But once the other party becomes a rich family, then killing them is a vendetta.

Once the nature changes, they will face the robbery of the entire Yuntang River and Lake at that time.And this is Yuan Tiangang's real purpose, to kill people with a knife.

"What about now?" Yuan Tiangang continued to ask calmly.

"It was supposed to be you who pulled me out of hell, but in front of me, I settled the situation myself. So you immediately ordered the army to attack, causing chaos, and thus sucking everyone around them. Create a place for you to kill them and set the blame It was my chance. The sons of two families with seven surnames died in this battle. Now, you have changed your mind." At the end of the words, Xue Qianye suddenly changed the subject.

"Really? You seem to know what I'm thinking?"

"Previously, if I was framed successfully. Although I still won't believe you, at least because of this kindness, we can open up opportunities for cooperation. Facing the common goal of the seven surnames, although we are not friends, we are It will be a comrade-in-arms. And you need someone who can lead the martial arts world. This person should be me, but unfortunately, after I solve the problem by myself, you also feel in your heart that the threat I bring is too great."

Xue Qianye's words hit Yuan Tiangang's vitals.

"..." Yuan Tiangang was speechless, but the wind around him already had bursts of killing intent.

Completely correct.If you hadn't said it in front of me, I almost thought it was me who spoke.

"So, you want to kill me now. Because you don't need an uncontrollable person to be the leader. And with my wisdom, it is very likely that I will see through your layout, and I may be buried with them at that time."

If you let yourself know that he is the mastermind behind the scenes, then the biggest possibility is to count him together.Then, originally Yuan Tiangang should make himself a hero, but at that time he may become a martyr under his own arrangement.This is not the result Yuan Tiangang wanted.

"If you are right, it will prove that I am the emperor's man." Yuan Tiangang continued to insist.

Because at present, the biggest beneficiary of the eradication of the seven surnames is the emperor himself.Although it does not appear to be the case on the surface, it is the case in reality.

"That's right, you are the emperor's man. But there are many kinds of emperors. Not only the other three countries have emperors, but the future of this country also has emperors. And the person behind you is moving forward with this goal in mind. Arranging for you to severely injure two In order to clear the obstacles in the future, I took the opportunity to let the Demon Sect get a chance to see the light of day again, and at the same time claim credit to the emperor. This is a plan to kill three birds with one stone." Xue Qianye walked a few steps to the side of the stone table and sat down. He picked up another glass and poured wine, and continued talking about his speculation.

Three wine glasses are like three goals, but three goals can be filled by a jug of wine.That's the fun part of this plan.What I said to Li Mi at that time was not my plan, but one of the goals of their plan.
