Abandoning concubines and raising children to seize the throne

The shadow snorted and withdrew his hand.

"Xie Anshi, have you forgotten how your wife and children died tragically at the hands of the enemy?"

Taoist Tianji shuddered slightly and said in a sad voice: "How dare I forget the pain of my family being wiped out? But the enemy is dead, and it is meaningless to pursue it. I, this old minister, also hope that the king will not be obsessed with hatred."

"How dare you! Do I need you to teach me how to do this?"

The black shadow suddenly raised his sleeves, and Taoist Tianji flew out like a dead leaf.

The dark figure flashed and the person was in front of him.

Taoist Tianji ignored his own injuries and knelt down again.

The dark shadow snorted coldly.

"For so many years, the living people of the tribe have been working hard to restore the country. As the imperial teacher of this dynasty, you are leaning towards outsiders. You really deserve to die a thousand times.

Because you have devoted yourself to assisting my father, I can spare your life. Although you don't often walk around in the martial arts world, your reputation is still not small. I will give you one month to recruit a group of martial arts people to serve me. If you do well, I will allow you to retire. Guan Han, let's go."

The two figures disappeared in an instant, leaving only Taoist Tianji kneeling unable to get up.

After a long time, he slowly raised his head and looked at the starry sky.

When my mother was alive, she often said that when people die, they will become stars in the sky. Will Lao Xiao be one of them?

He must be laughing at himself in heaven now!

No, how could that stupid boy laugh at him? If he were alive, he would only sympathize with him.

I think that old man Xiao will never know that the Fengyiqin, which he regarded as the sect's secret treasure, was just a toy he made out of boredom.

The reason why men cannot play is that he added a Five Yin Formation to the piano. Men playing the piano will always give people a feminine vibe, so it is better for them to practice the flute.

He used to like playing the piano, and he thought it was elegant, but his wife would often scold him by calling him a jerk…

Recalling the past, Taoist Tianji couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, with a very complicated smile.

After the fall of his country, he lived in Qingyun Mountain for hundreds of years. The only time he came out of the mountain was twice, when he went to the North Sea to look for his former powerful enemy.

However, the crowd was so vast that looking for someone was like looking for a needle in the waves. Xie Anshi failed to find his enemy among those martial artists, and he was unwilling to kill innocent people for his own selfishness. After seeing the tragic scenes of the common people being ripped open and dying with their eyes open, he thought for a long time and secretly founded the Shengyin Pavilion. In addition to helping the common people, he could also cultivate his own power and conspire with the king for great things in the future.

But humans are emotional animals after all.

On the one hand, Xie Anshi hated the descendants of the Great Zhou, but on the other hand, he developed a bond with them through his contacts with them.

Xie Anshi was very afraid of this kind of bond. He was afraid that if he met a truly powerful enemy in the future, he would give up on revenge because of a momentary weakness.

He then handed over the Shengyin Pavilion to a righteous disciple and retreated back to Qingyun Mountain again.

It was a secluded place with a formation set up there. He hadn't seen anyone there for many years. Xie Anshi endured the long loneliness and continued to wait for the king's call.

However, all the peace was broken seventy years ago.

A child of seven or eight years old accidentally ran into the mountains and saw Xie Anshi who was fishing.

This was also the first time Xie Anshi saw someone after leaving Shengyin Pavilion. He had no good feelings towards the child and even thought about strangling him to death. However, the child was not afraid of him and instead helped him fish.

Seeing that he was good at fishing, Xie Anshi was quite dissatisfied and simply used some internal force, but accidentally shocked the fish to death. The child was very smart and could tell at once that he knew martial arts, so he insisted on pestering him to learn martial arts.

Xie Anshi asked him why he wanted to learn martial arts?

The child said solemnly: "I want to protect the people of the world. With martial arts, I can resist invaders and foreign enemies."

Perhaps Xie Anshi was moved by these words. He made an exception and taught the child the martial arts that he had created over the long years. Every day, he watched the child practice martial arts diligently, catch fish in the water and grill them for himself, and listened to him talk excitedly about the bizarre world outside.

The two of them stayed in the mountains like this. In addition to martial arts, Xie Anshi also taught him music and knowledge, but he did not teach him formations. Feiyao country is good at formations and tricks. If he wants to take back this land one day, formations are indispensable. Unexpectedly, the child died in the formation...

Thinking back to the sword energy that hit the sky, Xie Anshi felt heartbroken. Could this be his fate?

Later, the child surpassed his teacher and even mastered the sound wave kung fu to perfection. He bid farewell to Xie Anshi and went down the mountain. Xie Anshi suddenly felt disheartened. He didn't know how long he would have to wait here, and he didn't want to return to the world again. In order to prevent Shengyin Pavilion from being used by those with ulterior motives and going astray, he faked his death and passed the position of Pavilion Master and the zither to Xiao Dingtian.

And if he had anything to do, he could go to the highest mountain a hundred miles away to look for old man Tianji.

At this point, Xie Anshi was dead, and the only one alive was old man Tianji.

In order to deceive that bastard, he changed his voice, appearance and smile, and stopped using martial arts. He only used formations and chess skills to create a new signature.

When they met again three years later, Xiao Dingtian had become much calmer, and his every move showed the calmness and grace that a clan leader should have. Xie Anshi was very pleased, and he became an old friend of Xiao Dingtian in another capacity...

Nearly a hundred years of friendship between master and apprentice, father and son, and close friends was destroyed by his own hands. Perhaps what the lady said was right. Even if he held the position of national teacher, he was still a mortal and was still bound by emotions.

He would not go back to Shengyin Pavilion, nor did he want to deal with those complicated matters anymore. Once the war broke out, the people would be the first to bear the brunt. How innocent they are!

Thinking of this, Taoist Tianji carefully straightened his robe, slowly stood up, and took unhurried steps. After a moment, he arrived at the place where Pavilion Master Xiao died in battle.

As the night wind blew by, he could still smell the lingering traces of blood. The child who used to help him grill fish had grown up and become the true leader of a sect.

He also fulfilled his promise and became the most powerful guardian of the North Sea.

And it's time for him to let go of his obsession and go look for his wife and children.

He lifted his robe and sat down calmly. A powerful energy emanated from the top of his head. Taoist Tianji instantly aged by dozens of years, but his face was still calm, waiting for death to come.

At this moment, a figure suddenly floated in front of him and asked in surprise: "Senior Tianji, you..."
