C173

On the main road outside of Liangzhou City, one could see the majestic and heavy city walls of Liangzhou City not far away. Hong Yu and his underlings slowly approached.

"Your Highness, we're right in front of Liangzhou City. I wonder if we should enter the city this time, or camp outside the city?"

The one who spoke was Feng Huizhou. He stood in front of Hong Yu and carefully asked for his opinion.

Hong Yu thought for a moment and immediately understood what he meant. The last time they entered the city, they had encountered countless sentries on the open ground. There were countless defensive lines, including people from Hong Futian and Li Muyue. Furthermore, after entering the city, even if they were stationed here, they would still be in Li Muyue's camp. It would be inconvenient to talk about it, but their movements would also be restricted. They would also be suspected of being watched.

Indeed, without a transfer order, it would be very inconvenient for an elite force of over a thousand people to enter any city. It could cause panic among the people, and it could also cause conflicts with the city's original garrison.

No matter how prestigious and binding Hong Yu was amongst the soldiers under his command, he could only restrain his own soldiers. However, he was powerless against the soldiers of Hong Fu Tian and Li Mu Yue.

Furthermore, now that he knew many of Hong Futian's secrets, it would not be a good thing for him to expose all of the secrets he had built up under this person's nose.

He pondered for a moment, then turned around and ordered the soldiers behind him, "All of you, set up camp outside the city, build a pot for your meals, tidy up and rest. Without my order, no one is allowed to enter the city to disturb the people, and no one is allowed to come into conflict with other troops. "Feng Huizhou, Three Colors Sisters, and Lan Qifu, you will take charge of the camp, and the Soothing Slave will come with me to the city."

"Yes sir!"

Everyone under his command accepted his orders and didn't mention it.

"Washing Slave, let's go." Hong Yu called out again and headed towards the city.

The Loathsome Evil didn't make a sound as it silently followed behind Hong Yu.

Along the way, Hong Yu discovered that compared to the last time, there was no longer that tense atmosphere. Not only were there no number of sentries removed, there were also more merchants coming and going. Everyone's faces had a tranquil and satisfied smile, no longer showing any signs of chaos from the cult.

He knew that he was the one who had taken the risk of blowing up the Demonic Sect's temple, killing the non-humankind's Marshal, and defeating the non-humankind's army. This series of combined fists had not only resolved the crisis in Liang Zhou, but also sent a message to the people that the danger was no longer there.

In this way, the merchants of the four sides would not have to worry about being robbed by the Devil Sect or killed by the other races, and would naturally come to the Spirit Province to help the Spirit Province regain its vitality. The citizens of the Spirit Province would also dare to go down to the land to farm, hunt for beasts, fish for fish, and everything would naturally return to normal, flourishing and becoming more stable, even to the extent that he could guess that once the imperial government allocated a steady stream of funds for disaster relief, the pain caused by the seventeen counties of the Spirit Province being disturbed would soon be forgotten by everyone.

Seeing this scene and seeing the satisfied smile on the faces of the common people, Hong Yu also nodded his head, feeling extremely gratified.

A few months ago, he was still a fool prince, enduring humiliation and bearing the burden of his mother's blood and hatred. He only felt that the towering palace wall was an eternal cage that allowed him to live in despair every day, isolated from all his hopes, and even went so far as to be on tenterhooks while sleeping, afraid that an assassin would appear and silently kill him.

He first obtained trillions of golden lances from his mother's relics, smelting golden lances into particles, and then obtained great strength from the golden lances. He killed twenty-nine old men, participated in the great ceremony, reached the Spirit realm, established the family and received the title of emperor, then came to Liangzhou, just like how a dragon returns to the sea. He began to develop, lurked and killed many devil masters of evil sects, Ape Divine Envoys, Outsider Generals, recruited subordinates, broke through two shackles in a row, and was finally subdued by his plans.

However, the more it was like this, the more he did not dare to slack off or relax. He kept reflecting on himself in his heart to see if he was worthy of this Mother of Ten Thousand Symbols, the divine tool of the Heaven and Earth Talisman.

To use one's strength to control something, one must be inferior in the end. The best strategy was to use virtue to conquer others and to hold a treasure in your hands!

Only people of virtue and virtue would be at a disadvantage!

Along the way, he plotted and plotted, killed and silenced. He might lose out on personal gains, but that was in a dangerous situation and he had no choice. Instead, he killed the evil spirits, exterminated the non-humankind, and saved the lives of tens of thousands of the people. In the end, he even risked his own life to detonate the bomb, blowing up the Void Gate in the Evil Sect's temple, in order to prevent the non-humankind army from constantly coming over to make trouble. From the looks of it, he also had a clear conscience.

But he always had only the heavy nerves of slaughter to feel, and not the slightest sense of the ease with which great virtue was cultivated.

Only at this moment did he see the citizens' relaxed and calm smiles as a result of his series of sacrifices. Only then did he feel a sense of relief and realization.

As long as he could let the people live in peace and work happily, maintaining such a satisfied and happy smile, even if he died because of it, what was there to talk about?

Gradually, he steeled his heart. The twenty-one golden gems in his body were like a giant sun that bloomed with tens of thousands of tiny rays of light, which affected the circulation of his blood and energy. They were extremely warm, and all kinds of righteous principles were flowing in his heart, like the melting of white snow and the melting of ice mountains.

"Bang, bang, bang …"

A firecracker like sound resounded from his body as all of his acupoints were broken open. A funnel-like tornado appeared above his head, sucking in all of the spiritual energy and forming it into his acupoints.

Ah!

He let out a long whistle that shook the lands! The carefree feeling of his breakthrough flowed through his body as an invisible pressure radiated out, sweeping through the entire arena.

Immediately, all the people on the street felt a terrifying throbbing in their souls. Their bodies were completely out of their control as they knelt down.

"This... This is the presence of an expert who has broken through four shackles. This person is crazy, to actually dare to break through in the middle of a busy city. Aren't he afraid of being disturbed, having his dao heart become unstable, losing control of the Earth Terminus Cold Qi, and dying from the rampage of his Qi and blood? " Some of the experts in the crowd were screaming, their faces were full of shock.

"Four chain-level experts? "Heavens, I actually had the fortune to see such an expert breakthrough, and even personally experience the sensation of such an expert's breakthrough. This is a great opportunity, I absolutely cannot miss it." Some people realized that this opportunity was precious. Their eyes did not blink as they stared at Hong Yu's figure.

"Your Highness, your breakthrough here is not good. "If you are not careful, you will be disturbed, causing your cultivation to go berserk and damage your mind. If you cannot control your vital energy and blood, your martial arts will be wasted." At this moment, the elephant slave waved his hand and shot out a huge curtain of Astral Energy that was pitch-black as ink, enveloping the two of them and cutting off everyone's vision. Not even a single sound could penetrate through, and it then made a sound that woke Hong Yu up.

"I actually broke through?" And he broke two shackles in a row? has reached the level of four shackles? " However, the vigorous energy coming from within his body forced him to believe the truth: "This is truly unbelievable, I have actually lost control of my body, I did not expect that just obtaining a little enlightenment, would cause my spirit to ascend to another level, my soul would become as pure as the snow in the spring, melting the shackles on my body, and I would be able to open eighteen acupoints in a row, condensing a lot of Earth Termination Qi, four shackles, and surpassing the mortal world. However, you made your breakthrough in the busy city, and were even watched by many people, which is extremely terrifying. This will lead to many unforeseeable and terrifying consequences, and it's all thanks to you taking action.

Spiritual light converged into one point during the breakthrough and bombarded the formless shackles in the body, afraid of being interrupted the most. Even if the breakthrough was completed, one would have to spend time to stabilize one's aura and familiarize themselves with the higher level of power one would receive in order to prevent one's strength from going berserk and going berserk. There were many people in the busy city, so there was almost a commotion. Luckily, Servant Xi had taken action, otherwise, it would have been extremely troublesome.

Your highness, you've put in a lot of effort, and discussed it with me for three days in the mountain." Your highness, you've put in a lot of effort, and discussed it with me for three days in the mountain. Your Highness, your cultivation technique seems to have a completely different system from the orthodox cultivation of martial arts. The terms of "shackles", "god storehouse", "astral plane", and "earth fiend" simply aren't suitable to be used on His Highness. In other words, although His Highness seems to be a cultivator with four shackles, but the strength that he can display is actually far beyond what he is capable of reaching. If he were to use his true power, perhaps even one or two experts of the Divine Hidden Level would find it difficult to be His Highness' opponent. " The Wash Elephant Slave spoke out its opinion once again.

Indeed, I can't hide anything from you. I have indeed cultivated an invincible cultivation method that is completely different from the current cultivation system, with its endless mysteries, it can awaken one's own divine power, and with its limited potential, it is possible to achieve something so profound that even gods and immortals wouldn't be able to count for much. Hong Yu's secret was broken by the elephant slave, so he didn't panic, as he knew that it was impossible for the slave to betray him.

The beginning of the Superclass was just a sentence, "The gods were born because of me, the gods glory because of me, the group deities all sang the praises for me …" At that time, when he saw it, there was a kind of absurd feeling, as if he saw a fake scripture, but when he recalled it now, he had boundless confidence that with the help of this technique, he could gradually grow, surpass the group of deities, surpass the gods, shoulder to shoulder …

"No wonder when Your Highness fights with me, you always give me the supreme feeling of suppressing all devils and burying all gods. So it really is an ancient supreme divine art?" "A self-made, noble, and noble martial art that can be compared to a Divine level martial art?" He knew that this method is of utmost importance and Hong Yu would definitely not reveal too much, "Your Highness, since you have obtained this method and trained in both the present and the two great ancient systems, it is not impossible for you to improve together and compare with each other before jumping out of all the shackles and walking onto your own path. However, right now, Your Highness still needs to carefully cultivate, and absolutely cannot be too ambitious, and must let nature take its course. "

"Of course." Hong Yu nodded. He knew that the Wash Elephant Servant had a lot of experience and was giving him pointers.

"Your Highness, there seems to be someone outside attempting to break through my barrier." All of a sudden, the Washing Slave waved its hand and removed the barrier formed by the Astral Energy above its head.

What replaced them was a team of well-trained hundred elite warriors who were all wearing the Great Python Armor. All of them were experts at the peak of the Mortal Realm, and their strength was not ordinary. Hong Yu even observed that a few of them had reached the Spirit realm and had broken one or two shackles.

"Duke Yu, our princess has been waiting quietly in the mansion for a long time. At night, there will be a banquet in the government office and both the second and thirty-fifth princes will come to celebrate for His Highness and also to welcome His Highness." At that moment, the soldiers, who were as silent as iron, parted to form a path. A woman walked out.

Hong Yu recognized her. She was Li Mu Yue's personal maid, an expert in painting!

"That's exactly the case. Lady Intuition, please lead the way." Hong Yu thought for a moment, but did not decline. "That is to say, not only can I see Mu Yue and my Second Brother at night, but also my Thirty-fifth Brother?"

"Yes!" The wise man nodded his head and cupped his hands together, gesturing for Hong Yu to follow him. "I am only sending a message for our master. As for the details, Your Highness will naturally know when the time comes."

"Alright!"

Hong Yu and the Sage Washing Elephant Servant followed behind him and were immersed in the silence. The atmosphere was also extremely silent, but the eyes of the wise painting would always inadvertently sweep over Hong Yu's body, seeming to be extremely curious as they observed the details.

As he entered the residence, Hong Yu saw the tight defenses along the way, all dressed up as personal guards of the Iron Blood Marquis. Each soldier was a veteran of hundreds of battles, with a keen spirit and a murderous aura.

"As expected, Li Muyue was prepared for Second Brother. She invited everyone to the banquet. We need to prepare extremely meticulously, so as to not anger this person and cause any mishaps." Hong Yu observed quietly and slowly walked into the hall.

Sure enough, there were several dishes in the hall. There were a few bowls and chopsticks on the table, and there were no fine wine or delicacies. It was clean and refreshing, and a few people were sitting in front of their respective tables.

Sitting in the commander's seat were Li Muyue, Second Prince Hong Futian, Mister Jian, and a handsome young man in his twenties.

This young man was dressed in a green blademaster uniform, simple and capable. He wore a flowery crown on his head, and his facial features were as sharp as knives. His eyes especially, were as bright as the stars.

Feng Shen was like jade, he was like a heavenly sword, and his eyes were like sword beams!

"Thirty-five?" Hong Yu was slightly stunned and immediately recognized this person's identity. It was the thirty-fifth prince, Hong YuanTu.

He already knew that this person would come to Liang Prefecture, but even so, he was still somewhat shocked when he saw this scene.

He was ranked thirty-six, while Hong YuanTu was ranked thirty-five. The two of them were about the same age, but there was a one year gap between them.

Although her status appeared to be unspeakable, she was actually not taken seriously, because he had a big brother, the eighteenth prince Hong Tianyu, and the eighteenth prince was the one who held the empress's true hopes in, while he had been ignored by the empress since he was young, and his brothers mocked and ridiculed him.

But unlike Hong Yu who had been bullied and played the fool, Hong YuanTu did not choose to pretend to be crazy and play the fool. Instead, he chose to raise his fists and hit them back one by one! It was because of this that he became increasingly unpopular among the people around him and the empress. Amongst the princes, he was the one who stayed the most out of the crowd and kept quiet.

Hong Yu did not negotiate much with him, and even his impression of him only existed in the few royal ceremonies held several times a year. However, he knew that Sun Qing, the great scholar of the imperial government, had once described this person as "a man just like his name. He was as fierce as a sword, and his personality was sharp enough to injure others and injure himself."

In the legends, Yuan Tu and Tai Ah, the two peerless ferocious swords of the ancient era, had left their mark on this person. When the imperial court Grand Scholar evaluated this person with the "Yuan Slaughter Sword", he could not help but have a deep impression of him.

Hong Yu also never thought that this person would be chosen by the Sword Imperial Concubine. She was willing to let him command the experts of the sword family and use them to support him in his struggle for supremacy!

Right! That's right, to fight for supremacy.

Hong Yu could practically guess that from the moment his 35 years old brother stepped into this troublesome place, he had already stood against all the princes who wanted to fight for direct descendants, including him.

Not to mention that the son of the imperial concubine of the sword had died in his hands, which was an indisputable fact. The imperial concubine of the sword would never let him off, nor would the sword family, so it was impossible for him, Hong YuanTu, to become friends with him.
