However, Cao Zhengchun also had to hurry back.
If Liu Xi were to tamper with things beforehand and kill Murong Shu, then he would have no way to verify the facts.
Inside the seventeenth floor of the Dengtian Pavilion.
Su Chen was in a good mood. He didn't expect that helping Cao Zhengchun with his fortune telling would also earn him a martial arts deduction card.
Now that's great, I won't have to worry about comprehending the "Emperor's Conferment of Gods Technique".
Before leaving, Su Chen suddenly remembered something and turned to look at the girls.
"Ruoyi, take Li Hanyi and Yaoyue to the Ming Dynasty and keep an eye on Cao Zhengchun."
Su Chen said to Ye Ruoyi.
Ye Ruoyi asked, puzzled, "Mr. Su, what do you want me to keep an eye on?"
"Cao Zhengchun already knows about Liu Xi's conspiracy, and he will definitely lead his men to besiege the place where Liu Xi is hiding Murong Shu."
"You, Yaoyue, and Li Hanyi should keep an eye on things secretly and lend a hand if needed."
"Most importantly, bring back Murong Xian, the youngest daughter of the Murong family, who has been imprisoned."
"She is the new maid that Su has chosen."
When Su Chen watched TV before, he especially liked the fairy Murong Xian.
Now that he has truly arrived in this world of martial arts, he naturally won't stand idly by and watch Murong Xian encounter danger.
After all, this wasn't a difficult task for him.
Ye Ruoyi didn't ask any further questions and simply nodded, "I'll go prepare right away."
The other girls all looked on with curiosity, eager to know what their future sister would be like.
With a wave of his hand, Su Chen brought the three reward items he had just received to the table.
They are the "Ghost King Scripture", the "Great Heaven Creation Palm", and a martial arts deduction card.
"It's true."
Su Chen flipped through the "Ghost King Scripture" and revealed a look of sudden realization.
Just as he thought, the Ghost King Scripture was the Ghost King Sect's most prized treasure in the world of Jade Dynasty.
Only the sect leader of the Ghost King Sect can cultivate this technique.
Moreover, this skill is one of the "Five Scrolls of Heavenly Books," one of the five great secrets of the world of Jade Dynasty.
However, Su Chen had already cultivated the "Taiji Xuanqing Dao," and its power was no less than that of the "Ghost King Scripture."
So he didn't want to spend too much time on it.
After all, he still had many other skills to work on, such as the "Emperor's Qi Observation Technique," the "Great Heaven Creation Palm," and the "Nine-Nine Return to Origin Step."
"There are still too few martial arts deduction cards."
Su Chen sighed, picked up the deduction card on the table, and directly merged it.
Soon, he entered a wonderful state of "harmony between man and nature".
After an unknown amount of time, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, and it seemed as if five-colored divine light was swirling in them, which was particularly magical.
After this enlightenment, his cultivation level improved again, reaching the half-step terrestrial celestial realm.
What pleased him most was that he had already mastered the basics of "The Emperor's Aura Observation Technique".
Although this skill is not an internal martial art and doesn't have any particularly powerful moves, it can sense the energy of heaven and earth, and its uses are quite magical.
For example, it can be used to see the changes in the Qi (vital energy) between heaven and earth, and to know the weather in advance.
Moreover, the deeper one's understanding, the longer the timeframe one can predict.
It can also be used to see the flow of energy in a master's body, thereby judging the direction of the opponent's true energy, knowing the opponent's moves in advance, and finding the flaws.
This is extremely important in high-level matches.
Dugu Qiubai's "Nine Swords of Dugu" is no match for "The Emperor's Aura Observation Technique".
"I need to find a place to practice."
Su Chen muttered to himself, and soon thought of a good place to go.
He used the "Nine-Nine Returning to Origin Step" and in a flash left the Ascending Heaven Pavilion. Then, he rode the Dragon Slayer Sword and transformed into a beam of light, heading straight for the Great Han Jianghu.
The Great Han Dynasty, Jizhou City, Zhonghua Pavilion.
As usual, Wuming carried his beloved erhu upstairs to the second floor and sat in his reserved seat.
He's in a good mood today, perfect for playing the erhu.
Just as he was about to pull the lever, his expression suddenly changed, and his gaze turned to the doorway.
A burly man in black walked up step by step, and the aura emanating from him instantly silenced the entire second floor.
This person is Dugu Qiubai.
With his lightness skill, he should have arrived long ago.
But this time he came to challenge Wuming, a sword immortal at the terrestrial celestial realm, to a duel.
Although he knew he couldn't win, Dugu Qiubai still wanted to give it his all and try to perform at his best in the battle.
And now, he's in his best form, so he's here.
"Zhonghua Pavilion has an urgent matter to attend to and will be closing soon. Please leave, everyone."
Wuming put down his erhu and said calmly.
Although the group of diners were somewhat reluctant, they still obediently went downstairs when they saw the terrifying aura emanating from Dugu Qiubai.
Most importantly, they also saved money on a meal.
Before long, the second floor was deserted, with only Jian Chen guarding the door.
"This is just a small restaurant."
"If you're here for food or lodging, then feel free to do as you please."
"If it's about matters of the martial arts world, then you've probably come to the wrong place."
Wuming looked at Dugu Qiubai and said calmly.
Dugu Qiubai said in a hoarse voice, "I know you are the legendary Wuming, the martial arts legend of the Han Dynasty."
"Nameless, he died twenty years ago."
Wuming said expressionlessly, and picked up the erhu again, ready to play.
Dugu Qiubai said, "You're heartbroken because your wife died, aren't you? Don't you want to know the truth about your wife?"
As soon as Dugu Qiubai finished speaking, the erhu in Wuming's hand was shattered by the aura he unintentionally emitted.
"What did you just say?"
Wuming didn't care about the erhu; he just stared intently at Dugu Qiubai.
"Fight me, beat me, and I'll tell you everything I know."
Dugu Qiubai said calmly, but his eyes couldn't hide his excitement.
The nameless aura he released unintentionally was enough to terrify Dugu Qiubai.
This is the strength of a terrestrial Celestial Realm expert!
The thought of facing such a master filled Dugu Qiubai with such excitement that he couldn't contain it.
"You really want to fight me?"
Wuming gave Dugu Qiubai a deep look, and finally nodded: "Alright, come with me."
The two flew on their swords and arrived at a steep mountaintop in the blink of an eye.
"Where is this?"
Dugu Qiubai stared at the clouds beneath his feet with a look of curiosity.
"This is Hanshan, and this place is called Jianfeng."
The nameless man answered calmly, glancing around as a flood of memories washed over him.
Dugu Qiubai asked, "Cold Mountain Sword Peak? Is this where you obtained the Hero Sword?"
"You know quite a lot, don't you?" Wuming's eyes became more serious.
"Beat me, and I'll tell you the answer you want to know."
"However, your mind is not at ease right now, and your swordsmanship is also in disarray."
"Let's calm down first."
Dugu Qiubai gripped his sword and said calmly.
For this battle, he specially retrieved the Xuan Tie Heavy Sword from the Sword Tomb.
Chapter 48 Immortality
Wuming said, "I'm not in the right state right now, but you've really made me want to make a move. Let's draw our swords."
After preparing himself mentally, Wuming's aura completely changed; he became like a sword, a divine sword capable of splitting the heavens and the earth.
"Very well! Dugu Qiubai, I have a sword technique, please enlighten me, Lord Wuming."
This time, Dugu Qiubai dared not underestimate his opponent. He gathered all his energy and spirit and unleashed a sword strike.
A heavy sword has no edge; true wisdom lies in appearing foolish!
This sword strike unleashed all his strength and willpower, exceeding his limits.
Even at his peak, this was the only sword strike he could muster.
But in Wuming's eyes, this was nothing at all.
To show respect, Nameless drew his Hero Sword and thrust it out in the blink of an eye.
Dugu Qiubai's heart sank, because Wuming's sword strike directly targeted his weakness and blocked all his escape routes, leaving him completely helpless.
