heaven money

As soon as he finished speaking, an envoy came from outside and said that King Chen wanted to discuss state affairs.

"What a coincidence."

Meng Qi laughed and led Jiang Zhiwei and others towards the palace, leaving Bai Song, Zhao Bai and Wang Qi to take charge of the affairs of Situ Mansion.

The sky was dark, and although there was a howling wind, it was depressing and heavy, as if a rainstorm was about to come.

Such weather made Meng Qi feel gloomy, but there was no sign of danger, so he didn't care.

As we got closer to the palace, we saw guards ahead checking and verifying the identities of the visitors.

This was a slightly childish face, and Meng Qi was not unfamiliar with it. This was Tian Kuo, the youngest son of the former Minister of Justice Tian Heng. He was a new "Mohist" who had been recommended after passing the test. He was no ordinary noble!
He is already a minor official, why is he here as a guard?
Tian Kua looked at Meng Qi with a gloomy expression, his left hand hanging down, making a gesture common among the "Mohists".

It means: extremely dangerous!

Go quickly? Danger? Meng Qi was shocked. His own profound skills had no effect at all?
Could it be that there is someone much higher than me who is hiding the secret?
Is this the reason for this weather?

The more dangerous the situation is, the calmer Meng Qi remains. There have been changes in the palace, but fortunately Lin Xiao is in the palace to protect Prince Chen. Presumably, Prince Chen should be fine, right?
He secretly used the "Yuxu Divine Calculation" to deduce the safety of Prince Chen.

Vague? No conclusion?
Ambiguity is the biggest anomaly...

Meng Qi didn't have time to think too much and could only place his hope on Lin Xiao. With his strength, even if he had just broken through to the outer scene, he was definitely not something an ordinary outer scene master could contend with. He then sent a message to Jiang Zhiwei and others.

"Let's go! It may be too late!"

In an instant, Meng Qi brought Qi Zhengyan, Jiang Zhiwei, Ruan Yushu, and Zhao Heng alone, and turned around and fled at lightning speed!
As soon as the four beams of light appeared, the people sitting in the palace noticed it immediately and stood up suddenly, holding a longbow in their hands, with golden light condensing into sharp arrows!
Meanwhile, in Situ's mansion, Bai Song was looking at the secret information that had just been delivered: the servants of the three nobles discovered unusual movements in their respective mansions at night!
"Hurry, stop Mr. Su and the others!" He suddenly raised his head and looked at Wang Qi and Zhao Bai.

As soon as the escape light appeared, Meng Qi felt that the world suddenly dimmed. The wonderful state of mind where the inside and outside were connected, harmonious as one, and the outside world was transformed into one's own scene seemed to be shattered in an instant.

During the perception, I saw a ray of golden light condensed into a sharp arrow, piercing through the sea of ​​vital energy, passing through layers of void, illuminating the boundless darkness, and arriving in an instant with the posture of filling the sky. The terrifying feeling of oppression and the indescribable strength seemed to be the manifestation of some kind of law between heaven and earth, which was difficult to resist and avoid!

What a terrible arrow!
This thought suddenly popped up in Meng Qi's mind. He lost the will to fight and the determination to resist. The hand holding the sword was no longer firm!
Is this the power of a Grandmaster with high-grade or even top-grade weapons?
I have even seen more than one Dharmakāya! Meng Qi knew that something was wrong, and immediately gritted his teeth. "Yuanshi" sat in the center, worry-free and fearless, and used his own martial arts will to forcibly eliminate the fluctuations of emotions and briefly resist the suppression of his mind!
With fighting spirit rising and his heart as clear as a mirror, Meng Qixun brought himself to the best state for battle. However, the sharp arrow transformed from golden light came so fast that it reached him before he could make a move.

At this critical moment, suddenly a strange fragrance wafted in the air, and thousands of golden lotuses appeared in the air. Each golden lotus bloomed with infinite light, as thick as earth and as vast as the earth!
Because of Tian Kuo's tip-off, Qi Zhengyan had already hidden the Yuxu Xinghuang Flag in his hand. At this moment, he unfolded it against the wind, showing the magic of Kunlun's secret treasure, just enough to block the golden arrow.

puff!
The golden arrow shot down many golden lotuses, but it still moved forward with an indestructible momentum. The apricot yellow flag replica was limited by its own level and could only try its best to weaken it, unable to block it, and even its speed did not slow down much. It seemed that such speed was the characteristic of the golden arrow itself, and it was a fusion of the law. It was not external, and it was difficult to affect it without destroying it or countering it with the corresponding law!
What a terrible “arrow”!
Meng Qi was moved again, but his mood was completely different from before. This time he could clearly discern its power and understand its magic.

There was no time to dodge or attack. Meng Qi's body suddenly grew larger, reaching a height of two feet. His majesty and solemnity forced the golden arrow that was pointed directly between his eyebrows to change direction and go diagonally upwards.

It is locking the brow!

But with this change of direction, the distance was forcibly increased, and Meng Qi was able to react a little. He raised his head slightly and swung his left arm horizontally to block his face!
Poof, the golden arrow hit Meng Qi's left arm. It penetrated deeply, the light suddenly became bright, and the extremely terrifying explosive force was released!

boom!
Boom!

Rumble!
Golden light flew everywhere, blood and flesh flew everywhere. Meng Qi's entire body was shattered into pieces, and he flew backwards with Qi Zhengyan.

His left arm was completely blown off from the shoulder, leaving no bones behind, and the flames were thrown high into the air. Half of his face was sunken and stained with blood, looking extremely hideous.

If he hadn't practiced profound skills and hadn't been blocked by the Jade Void Apricot Yellow Flag, even if this arrow didn't kill Meng Qi, it would have at least crippled 70% to 80% of his strength!

Damn it! Meng Qi was furious and cursed inwardly.

But he knew that the other party was a master, and his weapons were even more terrifying, so he had to turn around and escape without being reckless.

The man in the palace pulled the bowstring again. Now it depends on who is faster!
The strong men from outside who were lying in ambush around the palace flew out one after another. Their arrangements were disrupted and they could only take the initiative to attack and kill. Among them were the former Sikou Tian Heng, the former Situ Wang Dan, the current Sikong Gongyang Zeng, and the elders and children of their families. It was exactly the father and son fighting together, and brothers fighting the tiger together!
If the assassination attempt on King Chen fails, there will be no way out. Naturally, they will send out all the strong men. If the Grandmaster of Jinguan Cave fails, as long as they can seriously injure King Chen, they will still have a chance. But things went more smoothly than expected. The Grandmaster of Jinguan Cave exceeded their expectations in both strength and treasures. Even though King Chen's backhand was terrifying, it did not cause any waves and only consumed a few more secret treasures.

So, they simply stayed and prepared to ambush Meng Qi and others, frame them, and get rid of them once and for all.

But man proposes, God disposes. Tian Kuo somehow got the news, hid it from his father, infiltrated the Tian family team, and won the responsibility of investigation and review. Except for Tian Heng and Tian Jian, no one from the three major families knew that he admired Su Mo so much. As for the matter of secretly joining the Mo family, it was even more secretive, and even Tian Heng was not aware of it.

In the void, the "dead" King Chen and Lin Xiao were watching the scene where the strong men and nobles of the Golden Light Cave united to besiege and kill Meng Qi.

King Chen looked gloomily at the nobles who controlled the palace, with a cold look in his eyes. These traitors deserved to be killed!

Then he looked at Lin Xiao and asked:

"Aren't you worried about their safety?"

Lin Xiao shook his head and said:

"Don't worry, this is their own tribulation. It's not easy to become a saint. Only by rising from the hardships can one become a true saint!"

King Chen nodded upon hearing this, and then sighed:

"I really didn't expect that although Mr. Su is only at the third level of the outer scene, his combat power is far beyond that level. The skills he has cultivated are unique, so he must be able to escape successfully."

Lin Xiao nodded and said:

"They have great luck, and this time they just escaped unscathed. However, the remaining Mozhe may face some imprisonment, and in the future they may even become bargaining chips for the nobles to threaten Mr. Su to show up!"

King Chen smiled and said:

"Don't worry, since I'm not really dead, these families won't be able to cause any trouble. It's just that the Grandmaster of the Golden Light Cave makes me a little worried!"

Lin Xiao sighed and said:

"Alas, this time the nobles are not able to invite the Grand Master of the Golden Light Cave. It seems that he came here specifically for Mr. Su. Mr. Su doesn't even know that the Golden Light Cave has plans for him, otherwise he would never put himself in danger at this time!"

King Chen showed a guilty expression on his face and said:
"I am ashamed that I cannot protect Mr. Su!"

Lin Xiao shook his head and said:

"Chen is a small country, and it is already in danger. Mr. Su is a lucky man, and there will be no danger. The king still needs to carry out the reform. Otherwise, if the Tian family, the Gongyang family, and the Wang family get a taste of the sweetness of controlling the royal power, Chen will really be doomed!"

Upon hearing this, King Chen's eyes flashed with determination and said:
"I understand. I will definitely pass on Mr. Su's Mohism in the State of Chen. This time, I will make sure that these families will never have a chance to turn things around!"

He hated the Gongyang family, the Tian family and others very much. After the reform of the State of Chen, it soon showed signs of development. As a result, these people actually assassinated him for their own selfish reasons. It was simply unforgivable!
Below, Grandmaster Jinguandong exerted force with his right hand, red clouds swirled behind him, emitting thousands of golden rays of light, and pulled the bowstring with a feeling of great effort.

when!
Suddenly, a bell rang out, the original spirit shook, the soul separated, and the strong men who rushed out were all dizzy and could hardly control themselves. The master of Jinguan Cave who was targeted also felt a buzzing in his head, his hands became temporarily weak, the bowstring bounced, and he lost his direction.

The Soul-Falling Bell! Previously, in order to monitor customs taxes and make an example of others, this secret treasure was given to Jiang Zhiwei. After all, as the Grand Tutor, Meng Qi had to stay in the upper camp, so it was just right for use at this time.

The golden light turned into sharp arrows, piercing through the roof of the palace, through the layers of clouds, straight into the sky, and shooting towards the sun!

With a crack, the small black bell in Jiang Zhiwei's hand broke into pieces.

opportunity!

Meng Qi turned around without hesitation, and the acupoints on his body shrank. Behind him, an invisible and formless immortal primordial form appeared, dark and chaotic, indescribable.

Immediately afterwards, he raised one arm high, chopped down with a knife, the knife light flew out, and the world was created!
The darkness cracked, the palace walls cracked, the white jade square cracked, the pavilions cracked, and in the distance of several hundred feet between Meng Qi and the first external scene expert, everything was split in two, and gullies appeared on the ground!

With a slight sound, the dizzy exterior worker suddenly regained consciousness. He then saw a line of blood running from his throat to his crotch, and his left eye could gradually see his right eye!

The left eye can see the right eye? With a plop, he split into two and fell to the ground.

The sword light did not stop, it cut through Prince Chen’s bedroom and arrived in front of the Grandmaster of the Golden Light Cave.

The master just regained consciousness and subconsciously pushed out his left hand. The red clouds flickered and the sword light disappeared.

Taking this opportunity, Meng Qi grew two arms, caught the falling fire, and took Qi Zhengyan to perform fire escape, disappearing into Shangying City. On the other side, Jiang Zhiwei and Ruan Yushu escaped, and so did Zhao Heng.

They split into three groups so as not to be too conspicuous when hiding.

As for the reunion, they had communicated about it long ago. Initially, it was to prevent the nobles from launching a crazy counterattack, triggering a civil war, and forcing King Chen to compromise. So, at Meng Qi's suggestion, they formulated a plan to escape separately and reunite afterwards in case of emergency. Who knew that everything was calm within a month and the plan was not put to use, but it played a role when they were about to succeed.

Grandmaster Jinguandong sensed the empty surroundings, took a deep breath, and the scene of a dozen miles around suddenly appeared in his mind, with streets, pedestrians, houses, and everything else clearly visible.

He seemed to be the master of this world, able to see through the darkness and illuminate the gods.

Unfortunately, there is still no trace of Meng Qi and others!

This was something he had expected, because "Su Mo" and the others were either external scenes or half a step towards perfection, and had long since crossed the threshold of the unity of man and nature. Their aura could blend with the heaven and earth, and "transform" into a part of it, making it difficult to distinguish through this rough sensing method.

"Chase!"

"Seal off the upper camp and search every household."

"Send some people to follow me to search the surrounding areas."

“We must catch them!”

Grandmaster Jinguandong opened his eyes and gave orders continuously.

This surprised Tian Heng, Gong Yangzeng and others. Compared with the previous treatment of King Chen, the Grandmaster of Jinguan Cave was more anxious at this time. It seemed that the purpose of his coming was not to help the nobles such as himself, but to capture or kill Su Mo and others?
What exactly does Jinguangdong want to do?
"Haha, this immortal is giving orders like this in front of my palace. If you don't know, you would think he is the king of Chen State!"

At this moment, King Chen's voice rang out, not only in the palace, but throughout the entire Upper Camp.

Without waiting for the other party to answer, King Chen continued:
“The Gongyang Family, the Tian Family, and the Wang Family, in conjunction with the Grand Master of the Golden Light Cave, wanted to kill me and pin the blame of my death on Grand Minister Su Mo. For your own selfish gain and to stop me from carrying out reforms, you were willing to do such a thing!
It seems that when Tian Guang said that Wu was in civil strife, it was not a warning, but a real threat! "

As he spoke, a corpse fell from the sky and landed in front of Tian Heng.

Tian Heng widened his eyes and exclaimed:
"Guang'er!"

King Chen snorted coldly:
"Humph, he attacked and killed the Grand Tutor in front of me in the hall. I thought he was truly fearless of life and death, but I didn't expect he actually used a substitute. The person in the hall was not really himself!"

The Grandmaster of Jinguang Cave said indifferently:

"Humph, a mere King Chen. If I can kill you once, I can kill you a second time!"

As soon as the last word came out, a black arrow shot out from between the brows of Grandmaster Jin Guang Dong.

Lin Xiao's figure appeared in the distance, and he said coldly:

"Humph, you just used the magic weapon in your hand to launch a sneak attack. Do you really think you are invincible?"

As Lin Xiao finished his words, the body of the Grandmaster of Jinguan Cave fell to the ground, without any sign of life.

The arrow just now not only pierced through the center of Grandmaster Jin Guang Dong's eyebrows, but also completely destroyed his Dharma image, spirit, and meridians in his body, leaving him with no possibility of survival.

The fall of the Grandmaster of the Jinguan Cave made the faces of the Tian family, Gongyang family and Wang family, who had originally counted on the other party, turn pale. They had used all their strength to make today's event a success.

However, now that King Chen is still alive and has the help of Lin Xiao, a master with a record of killing grandmasters, they all know that the game is over.

The rest of the matters were naturally left to King Chen to handle. He did not take action against Tian Kuo. He had seen everything that had just happened and naturally knew that Tian Kuo was a Mohist.

At the same time, he admired Su Mo even more. He was able to attract nobles and knowledgeable people with his own theories, which showed that his Mohism was correct, but those nobles were reluctant to give up their own interests.

Lin Xiao transformed the Xuanniao bow in his hand into a Xuanniao and chased after Ruan Yushu and the others. It was obvious that he wanted to tell them everything that happened here and bring them together again.

That night, Meng Qi and others gathered at the Grand Tutor's Mansion again. All the strong men from the Wang family, Tian family and Gongyang family were killed, and the remaining people could not make any waves in front of King Chen, which made Meng Qi and others feel relieved.

"Thank you!"

Meng Qi and others expressed their gratitude, and Zhao Heng was no exception. Lin Xiao was equivalent to Shang Yi. Although Zhao Heng was a prince, he also wanted to win over the current number one on the Heavenly List!

At the same time, Tian Kua came to the Grand Tutor's Mansion.

He told Meng Qi about something an old Taoist priest had told him, and finally handed Meng Qi a lucky bag.

"The old Taoist priest...cannot use telepathy..." Meng Qi frowned, vaguely feeling familiar. He guessed the identity and purpose of the old Taoist priest.

Under the gaze of everyone, Meng Qi opened the brocade bag.

At this moment, he suddenly understood what was inside! Why did it feel so familiar to him?

The contents of the brocade bag slid out from the side and landed in Meng Qi's palm. It was the size of a palm, with a black background and golden seal characters engraved on it. >(End of this chapter)
