Chapter 384 The Disappeared “Fourth Saint” (Please subscribe)

The golden magic circle covering the palace was shattered.

When the light rain fell from the sky, everyone in the entire Divine Capital City witnessed this strange scene and heard the mighty dragon roar.

Many of them didn't know what happened. They didn't know that the transfer of the supreme power of the entire Zhou Dynasty was completed in such a dramatic way on this day.

Just like Ji Ping'an, who was still a recommended student, the night he returned to Qintian Prison, when he took out the astrolabe, the entire Qintian Prison was open to him.

After Wei Huayang returned to Qingyun Palace, the flying swords on the tenth floor of the sword pavilion obeyed her orders.

From the moment the God-Emperor stepped into the palace, there was no suspense about this "coup".

royal palace.

"Impossible!" Emperor Yuan Qing looked disheveled and knelt in the center of the square, as if it was difficult to accept his failure.

He looked even more unbelievably at the God-Emperor walking forward, holding a long sword and carrying the fate of the country on his back.

The whole person seemed to be going crazy and kept repeating the word "impossible".

The palace maids and guards in the distance stared at this scene, at a loss, but no one paid attention to what these people thought.

In the sky, figures fell one after another. Xin Yaoguang and others looked at the young man beside Ji Ping'an with vigilance and shock.

Except for the master of Molin Pavilion, everyone had seen the "God Emperor" in Yuhang, and they only knew that this was the former "God General Adou".

But at this moment, what is not clear about his true identity?

The first generation of God Emperor!

The first emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, who once joined forces with the imperial master to create this dynasty, has been hiding under everyone's nose!

Thinking that the chubby little man half a year ago was actually the God Emperor, Xin Yaoguang and others' eyes were a little complicated.

But no matter what I thought in my heart, I bowed my head at the same time at this moment, giving this famous man in history the respect he deserved:

"...I have met His Majesty the God Emperor."

At the same time, they also understood Ji Ping'an's real trump card for daring to directly seize power.

Of course, this simple and crude way of seizing power is not perfect. After all, the God-Emperor has been away for too long, and he has been the emperor and his courtiers... But it is difficult to have both in this world.

The God-Emperor who has regained the destiny of the country is equivalent to taking control of the entire local military system built on "court magic", and can appoint and remove the generals and officials of their combat power.

As for the civil servants, after all, Ji Ping'an has only been "dead" for ten years, and the great influence of the Imperial Master is still there.

It is not a problem for the two of them to work together to stabilize the overall situation for the time being. As for more details of the "throne replacement", we can only take our time and not rush.

"You are welcome," the God Emperor finally showed a smile at this time, "Thank you for your help this time, I can take down this unscrupulous descendant without a bloody blow!"

No one dared to be greedy for merit. They just listened to the instructions of the national master.

After hearing the conversation here, the palace eunuchs and ministers of bodyguards in the distance finally understood what happened, and fell to their knees with hula-la--

Under the background that the reborn person is no longer a secret, the return of the first-generation God-Emperor is not so difficult to understand.

"This is not a place for small talk," the God Emperor said, "I will deal with Yuan Qing first before we talk about anything else."

As he spoke, the God-Emperor suppressed his smile, walked up to Emperor Yuan Qing who was kneeling in the square, put the sword blade on the latter's shoulder, and looked at him with regret:

"Do you know your guilt?!"

Although emotionally, too many generations have passed between the God Emperor and Yuan Qing, and their bloodline has been diluted several times. In addition, the God Emperor's family has been indifferent to each other since ancient times. Facing a descendant who is only nominally his descendant, but who almost killed himself, it is really difficult. It's hard to have any feelings.

But in the final analysis, Yuan Qing is still his successor and descendant.

Now that he is forced to clean up his family with the help of outsiders, it is impossible for the God-Emperor not to be complicated in his heart.

"Taizu...Taizu...are you Taizu?"

Yuan Qing, who was disheveled and somewhat crazy, seemed to have been greatly shocked. At this time, his lips trembled and he stared at the God Emperor. After repeatedly confirming the dragon-shaped national destiny on his body, he finally believed it and his face was gloomy:

"But if you are Taizu, then who was that before?"

Ji Ping'an had vaguely noticed something was wrong before, but now his face changed slightly and asked: "The previous Taizu? What do you mean?"

Yuan Qing opened his mouth, looked around at the faces, no longer as domineering as before, as if his strength had been drained, and said:

"I... a long time ago, before the stars returned to their positions last year, I made a sacrifice to the Ancestral Temple... once, I sensed the call of Emperor Taizu, who predicted the return of you, and everything I did was also Follow Emperor Taizu's will..."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present became solemn.

Ji Ping'an suddenly fluttered his sleeves, and starlight filled the air, covering everyone.

……

In the blink of an eye, a group of people appeared in the depths of the Imperial Palace Ancestral Temple, in front of the temple where the ancestral tablets were placed.

The God Emperor was the most anxious. He raised his hand to pick up Yuan Qing's neck and kicked the door open.

The strong wind blew in, causing the rows of spiritual tablets on the altar to rattle. Under the shroud of spiritual consciousness, there was nothing unusual:

"nothing!"

Ji Ping'an and others also confirmed in turn that there was indeed no other "person" here.

Yuan Qing was thrown to the ground, facing the people's gaze, and said in despair: "He is gone, he left a few days ago, and left before you came."

Ji Pingan squinted his eyes, stared at Yuan Qing, who seemed to be mentally shocked, and said word by word:

"Tell me everything about what happened!"

Next, Yuan Qing, who had lost his spirit, stumbled and told a story.

The general idea is that when he first noticed the "appearance of his ancestors", he was greatly surprised and had doubts in his heart.

But on the one hand, the Imperial Ancestral Temple is the core of the palace formation and is heavily guarded. No one can break in and occupy the magpie's nest.

In addition, after several tests by Yuan Qing, the "ancestor" who had no specific appearance and seemed to exist here only in the form of a certain "will" showed no flaws and could even mobilize the power of the Ancestral Temple.

Therefore, he gradually believed in the identity of the "Emperor Taizu".

The "False God Emperor" claimed that the way of heaven had changed, and his will was able to tear a gap from the "immortal world" and get in touch with the human world through the Ancestral Temple.

He said that in the near future, the spiritual element would be revived, and the monks in the world would surpass the imperial power and threaten the Zhou royal family, and ordered Yuan Qing to prepare early to deal with the crisis.

The information about the return of the stars, that is, the return of the reborn ones, was also informed in advance by the "False God Emperor".

Yuan Qing was an emperor with great ambitions and limited talents, and he hated the opposition of the large sects to the imperial power. When he heard what Emperor Taizu said, he was greatly panicked and immediately became the enforcer of the latter's will.

"The fake Emperor Taizu said that if we want to avoid the overthrow of the imperial power, we must take action early and deal with the reborn ones from the source, so I issued an order to send soldiers to capture the reborn monks and confirm their identities..." Yuan Qing said .

The God Emperor questioned: "But you were never merciful to the divine generals and even the national masters back then. If the false emperor was really me, how could it be like this?!"

Yuan Qing looked at him carefully and said:

"The false Taizu said that the so-called friendship between kings and ministers in history books is only for outsiders to see. The king is the king, and the ministers are ministers. It is okay for those god generals to be dead, and they can be given meritorious treatment, but if they are alive, wouldn't they have to fight with each other? Fighting for imperial power? I think it makes sense..."

"You..." The God Emperor almost lost his breath.

Ji Ping'an was very calm and said: "Go on, what did the false emperor say about me?"

Yuan Qing turned to look at him, a bit of hatred suddenly appeared in his eyes:

"There has never been an emperor who lasted a hundred years, but there was a master who lasted four hundred years! When you were alive, who in the world regarded me, the emperor, as the master of the Great Zhou Dynasty?

People in the world only know you, but not me! This has finally killed you, how can you be reborn?

I only regret that I only regarded you as an ordinary genius in Qin Tianjian and never really killed you. If I had known that you were a national master, how could I have sent only a team of iron pagodas to kill you? As a result of what happened today? "

"Snapped!"

The God Emperor slapped him, and several teeth flew out of Yuan Qing's mouth. One side of his face was swollen and tears overflowed. Ji Pingan sighed and said:

"When I was alive, I did not interfere in the government affairs. Apart from traveling around the mortal world, I stayed in seclusion... I thought it was enough for hundreds of years, but it seems that I have made a mistake by living. That's all, it's human nature. That false Taizu also said a lot of bad things about me, which really won your heart, otherwise, you wouldn't be so obedient."

Yuan Qing was silent.

The God Emperor opened his mouth, but in the end he just let out a long sigh.

At this point, everything is clear. No wonder Yuan Qing has so many mysterious operations.

On the one hand, it is indeed in the interest of the imperial power.

In addition, there is also the false Taizu who is instigating behind the scenes... Of course, this does not mean that Yuan Qing is clean and just a tool man.

The reason why he was willing to obey the orders of the "false emperor" was because the interests of both parties were consistent.

This can also explain why Yuan Qing ordered the "soul search technique" to be used unscrupulously to explore the identity of the reborn... It's not entirely true that he wanted to kill the first generation God Emperor, so he was so crazy.

But because he thought that the one in the Ancestral Temple was the first generation of God Emperor...

"Then what? Why did that person leave?" Xin Yaoguang suddenly asked.

Yuan Qing shook his head and said: "He only said that there was something big to deal with, and he asked me to stabilize the situation and drag out the war."

Under the influence of everyone's consciousness, Yuan Qing couldn't lie, and it seemed that he really didn't know.

The God Emperor was so angry that he couldn't help but kick the unworthy descendant again: "How could I give birth to such a stupid thing like you!"

Ji Ping'an raised his hand to stop. He still needed Yuan Qing to be alive so that he could complete the transition of power as smoothly as possible, but he didn't want to be kicked to death, not to mention giving some face to the God Emperor:

"That's all, he doesn't know anything. Let's keep him here to make meritorious service."

Then he said:

"The top priority is to find out the origin and whereabouts of the false emperor. I suspect that the other party has a big plot. Even the reason why you took away a child is related to it."

The God Emperor was stunned and thoughtful.

Ji Ping'an had some doubts a long time ago as to why the carrier of the God Emperor's rebirth was a child...

After all, referring to other cases, the body after rebirth is more or less related to the previous life.

But the God-Emperor is an exception. Not only are there no physical similarities, but his age is also limited. As a result, for a long time, his combat power was not as good as that of a goose...

Hell has begun.

He could only attribute it to chance before, but after understanding the "dome" mechanism, he began to feel that something was wrong.

If this game for power is to raise the strongest monks, then there is no reason to throw such a powerful figure like the God Emperor into such a miserable start...

Now there is a new guess, maybe it is the "pseudo emperor" who is behind this.

Xin Yaoguang hesitated and said:

"The false emperor knew about rebirth and spiritual recovery in advance, and even claimed to be in the fairy world. Combined with the secrets mentioned by the Imperial Master before, I am afraid it is related to the 'dome'. Could it be that like the Imperial Master, he noticed it in advance and used it A monk who uses a special method to be reborn early?"

This is a reasonable guess.

However, Ji Ping'an suddenly shook his head and said, "I'm afraid it's not just that simple. I can probably guess the identity of the false emperor."

Everyone was startled and looked at him in surprise.

Then everyone said in unison: "Who is it?!"

Ji Ping'an looked around the crowd and suddenly said something shocking: "Do you still remember the fourth 'saint' who disappeared in history mentioned in my story?"

The fourth saint...of course they remember.

This is also the biggest mystery remaining after the polar trip.

Dean Chen frowned and said: "What the Imperial Master means is that this false emperor is a monk who has inherited the inheritance of the fourth saint?"

Ji Pingan slowly shook his head, his eyes inexplicable: "I suspect that he may be the fourth saint."

what?

Hearing this sentence, everyone could not hide their astonishment, and then developed absurd emotions:

"How is it possible? The other three saints are dead. Tens of thousands of years have passed. How can the fourth saint still be alive?"

Ji Ping'an shook his head and said, "Why is it impossible?"

Xin Yaoguang stared at him: "What else do you know? The existing information alone is not enough to make such a guess."

Ji Ping'an smiled: "Smart. I do know something, but I wasn't sure and couldn't figure it out before, so I didn't explain it. Until just now, I tried to spread my consciousness into the past time to explore...

Ha, this is the ability of Xingguan, remember what Yuan Qing said? The false emperor left just a few days ago, which means that there are traces of his activities hidden in the past.

Unfortunately, the aura left by that false emperor in the old days reminded me of a certain person from a thousand years ago. "

"Who is it?" The God Emperor was surprised.

Ji Ping'an took a deep breath and slowly spit out a name: "The Patriarch of the Demonic Way."

The master of Mo Pavilion was surprised and said: "The evil monk who once stood side by side with Zhenren Liyang, but was finally killed by him?"

They still don’t know that the national master is Li Yang...

Ji Ping'an said "yes" and explained:

"He is also the ancestor worshiped by the four holy sects of the Demon Sect in Jianghu. When I was in Yuhang, I got an arm from the master of the Demonic Way, and I am very familiar with his aura."

Everyone in the hall looked at each other, confused, and their thoughts were confused.

The False Emperor, the Fourth Saint, the Patriarch of the Demonic Way... what could be the relationship between these three? Lacking key information, they couldn't figure it out.

Fortunately, Ji Ping'an did not continue to sell things off. He said:

"Do you still remember that I told you before that I killed the old demon king in the north? After I killed it, I didn't know why it went to the pole, but I took away the blood essence in his body. .

And after I restored the Divine Treasure Realm in the polar region, I used the ability of the Star Officer to try to obtain the memory of the old king from the blood essence. "

"Wait, so you've really recovered your divine possession?" Luan Yu suddenly interrupted.

Although everyone had guessed it before, Ji Ping'an didn't really confirm it until this moment.

"Isn't this a matter of course?" Ji Ping'an looked at her curiously, as if there was no value in being promoted to the Divine Treasure.

Everyone was choked by his Versailles speech.

Luan Yu muttered: "But why are there no visions of heaven and earth..."

But halfway through her words, she realized that because the Imperial Master was in the polar regions at the time, his spiritual energy was thin and the location was remote, so it was difficult to sense it, not to mention there was a barrier blocking it.

"Tell me quickly, what did you learn from the old king's memory?" the God Emperor urged.
