We are all reborn, let's practice dual cultivation with Master first

After Jiang Ru was taken away and the mourning hall was arranged, Liu Yiqing finally had time to ask Qin Hao what had happened.

He didn't understand why Cheng Xuan would suffer the same fate after his senior brother.

Qin Hao did not hide anything about this and told the whole story.

After learning that Li Chengxuan was angry and made a scene in the palace after hearing the news of his father's death, and was eventually surrounded and killed by many masters, Liu Yiqing was angry and regretful. According to Jiang Bo, they already knew the whole story. Everything was just a calculation of the court.

If the Yuxu Sect did not need a backbone to stabilize the situation, he would have gone to the capital long ago to seek an explanation for his senior brothers and nephews.

Qin Hao knew that Liu Yiqing had a bad temper. Seeing his gloomy expression, he knew what he was thinking. He immediately said, "Uncle Master, this matter needs to be considered carefully."

It's not that Qin Hao is afraid of the power of the imperial court, nor is it that he doesn't want to avenge his sect master and senior brother, but he knows clearly that the imperial court is not just a simple imperial court. There are Kunlun envoys behind it, or to put it more bluntly, there are people from the upper realm standing behind it, and it also represents the authority of heaven.

This is not a fight between the martial arts world to avenge one's enemies, but a struggle between humanity and the laws of nature that has lasted for thousands of years, and a struggle of humanity against oppression from above.

The result will determine the fate of humanity and even the future direction of the entire world.

Although Qin Hao wished to grind Emperor Jiajing into ashes to offer sacrifice to the spirits of Li Cunzhi and Li Chengxuan in heaven, Qin Hao was not blinded by hatred. He always knew who his enemies were and where they were.

Liu Yiqing was puzzled when he heard Qin Hao's words.

Qin Hao did not say much, but directly released the aura of his Heavenly Venerate realm.

Feeling the pressure from Qin Hao's Heavenly Venerable Realm power, Liu Yiqing was stunned and asked incredulously: "Venerable level?"

Qin Hao nodded and said, "Like my senior brother, I have already been to the capital. The Ming Dynasty has the support of the upper world behind it, and it has a deep foundation. It cannot be moved lightly."

"This..." Liu Yiqing's expression flickered.

After a pause, Qin Hao continued, "This time the imperial court is calculating against all forces. We should unite to avoid being trapped in a situation where we can't handle it alone. Only in this way can we have a chance to uproot it and avenge our sect master and senior brother."

Liu Yiqing looked at Qin Hao seriously, and then fell into deep thought. After a while, he looked at Qin Hao firmly and said, "In that case, you will take over as the next sect leader!"

Qin Hao was stunned when he heard this.

Liu Yiqing thought Qin Hao had concerns, so he explained, "At this critical moment, the sect needs a strong backbone to lead. You are strong enough and have a high reputation in the Southern Region. You are the most suitable person to take over."

Qin Hao shook his head. When he needed to take responsibility, he would not evade it. However, he needed to communicate with Sheng Xiao internally about this matter. Therefore, after thinking for a moment, he said, "Uncle Master, let me think about this matter slowly."

Although Liu Yiqing hoped that Qin Hao would take on the task immediately, he did not push him too much and nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, Qin Hao and Liu Yiqing exchanged a few more words and then stopped talking.

All matters within the sect still need Liu Yiqing's support for the time being. For example, the funeral arrangements for his senior brothers and nephews will need him to do it personally.

After saying goodbye to him temporarily, Qin Hao went to find Jiang Bo.

After a brief greeting, Qin Hao asked about what really happened that day.

In this regard, Jiang Bo, as an eyewitness to the incident, also explained the cause and effect of the matter in detail.

After listening, Qin Hao finally had a comprehensive understanding of the incident.

He killed the Hu people in Beizhou, and Lin Danhan used this as an excuse to go south. At first, the imperial court took a tough attitude and did not agree to Lin Danhan's rude request, but after the defeat in the war, the attitude suddenly changed and decided to negotiate. The bargaining chip for the peace talks was him, a disciple of Yuxu Sect, hoping to hand him over so that Lin Danhan would stop fighting.

After that, the imperial court asked Yuxu Sect for someone, but Li Cunzhi insisted that Qin Hao was missing. Then the imperial army marched south, but was stopped by the various factions in the southern region.

Finally, at a grand court meeting, the emperor confronted Li Cunzhi on the spot, forcing him to prove his innocence. Li Cunzhi had no choice but to go north to fight the Hu people himself.

Subsequently, various forces responded and marched north together to repel the invaders.

Afterwards, the emperor suddenly changed his tone, praised the actions of all parties, and sent the Beijing Camp to support them.

However, on the battlefield, the Beijing camp did not join them in repelling the enemy. Instead, they joined the Hu people in attacking them from the front and back, which almost caused these masters from various factions to be defeated.

Then Li Cunzhi took the rear, and some people managed to escape. Then the emperor blocked the capital, turned the tables, and accused them of being deserters, and wanted to punish them for deceiving the emperor, and arrested all the people from various factions who were still in the capital.

After hearing the whole story, Qin Hao forced himself to suppress his anger and calm himself down.

Why did the imperial court take decisive action against various forces?

Was it aimed at all parties from the beginning?

Or was it a spur of the moment decision?

Qin Hao thought about it again and again, and guessed that perhaps the imperial court was dissatisfied with the Southern Region's united efforts to curb the imperial army, and then launched this murder by borrowing a knife.

But no matter what the reason was, what is certain is that the imperial court was indeed behind this matter.

There is another thing that can prove this. During the period when various forces went north to fight against the invaders, the residences of the families and sects were all invaded. According to some members of Shengxiao who went to stop the Demon Sect, this matter was closely related to the court. So it seems that this is probably part of the court's calculations against various forces.

It's so insidious, it's linked together.

Finally, Qin Hao thanked Jiang Bo and left.

In the next few days, Yuxu Sect was immersed in a sad atmosphere, and Jiang Ru fainted repeatedly, waking up and crying, crying and waking up again. It was really sad to hear about it and shed tears to see it.

Not only people from the sect, but also people from many forces in Dongzhou came to mourn, and some forces even had sect leaders or family heads come in person.

Li Cunzhi already had a very good reputation in the Southern Region. This time he did such a righteous act that almost made most of the forces in Dongzhou owe him a favor. They had to come to mourn no matter what.

……

While the Yuxu Sect was holding a memorial service for Li Cunzhi, the capital gradually returned to peace.

However, the emperor's roars continued to be heard from the palace, making everyone in the capital uneasy.

The event that was supposed to demonstrate the majesty of the imperial court ended up being messed up like that. Even the emperor himself could not take the man down, which almost completely trampled the prestige of the imperial court on the ground. For someone like Jiajing who had a strong desire for control and was quite conceited, the anger in his heart was obvious.

However, a new piece of news almost made him explode again.

The army of Ligdan Khan in the northern grassland really collapsed, which means that the man from the Yuxu Sect really wiped out the eighteen tribes of the grassland by himself.

The northern threat, which the imperial court had no choice but to seek peace in humiliation, was resolved by the very person they wanted to hand over.

How does this make people around the world view the imperial court?

For the current imperial court, resolving the issue would be a bigger blow than not resolving it. Doesn't this show that the imperial court is incompetent?

This time, the court's reputation was really trampled into the mud.

Afterwards, Jiajing angrily ordered General Annan to march south immediately and destroy the Yuxu Sect.
