If a good person dies like a lamp going out, will you be reincarnated?

Chapter 222: The Venerable Suppresses the Saints (Two-in-one subscription required)
So that day, Xu Lei had no choice but to take action.

When I went to college to study, I made an excuse that I wanted to collect folk songs, and the gentlemen in the college did not stop me.

After all, Xu Lei is very smart and he has learned all the knowledge learned in school.

Moreover, Xu Lei is accompanied by various warriors as guards, so there will be no danger. If there is any danger, it cannot be blamed on the academy.

Then Xu Lei took his servants to watch a play.

Of course, while watching the show, Xu Lei asked his confidants to help him cover up.

He sneaked away secretly.

"Master, where are you going? Are you alone?"

Xu Lei's trusted little servant was very worried: "If something happens to you, how can I explain it to the master and his wife?"

"Don't worry, Master, I'm fine. I just don't want so many people following me."

Xu Lei waved his hand: "And let me show you some of my tricks, my face-changing skills."

In order to reassure the little servant boy, he could only perform a face-changing trick using a human skin mask.

"how did you do that?"

The little book boy was very shocked and puzzled: "Master, where did you learn this?"

"Master, I am a genius. Can I be like you?"

Xu Lei patted his head and said, "Don't worry. No one knows my identity when I go out like this, so naturally no one will come to do anything bad to me. I will come back when the time comes."

"Master, you must be careful."

The little book boy could only say: "Otherwise the master and his wife will beat me to death."

"If you dare to tell on me, I will beat you to death."

Xu Lei just said, "I'll bring you a small gift when I come back, don't worry."

Then, nothing more was said.

This little servant boy is about the same age as Xu Lei, and Xu Lei has tested his loyalty many times.

And he had been asked to choose between himself and his father and mother many times.

Only after making sure that the little guy knew who his real master was did Xu Lei keep him by his side as his confidant.

So this time, it should be fine.

After leaving the theater, Xu Lei used a human skin mask, slightly adjusted his facial features, changed into simple clothes, and then walked openly on the street.

He used a little sleight of hand to get out of the city, and then flew to Kyoto on the lotus piece.

In fact, it is not very far. After all, if it was too far, Xu Lei's father and other merchants would not have worried that the martial saints would attack them during the war.

It’s just a dozen cities away.

Such a distance is of course far for ordinary people, but for Xu Lei or the martial saints, it is not far, after all, they are people who can fly.

At this time, if someone is on the ground and looking at the sky with a telescope, they will be able to see a small figure vaguely moving through the clouds in the sky.

Xu Lei's body certainly didn't grow bigger, he was still a child of four years old.

However, Xu Lei was not at all worried about the size of his body. After all, his cultivation was still there, and the size of his body was not that important. After all, the cultivation power was a long-range attack.

When Xu Lei arrived near Kyoto, he saw some martial saints in the sky, fighting.

At this time, below the area where the Martial Saints were fighting, the people were fleeing in panic.

After a quick look, I saw that there were actually twenty Martial Saints fighting in the air.

The scene can be said to be quite chaotic.

Both forces are composed of more than ten Martial Saints.

They are evenly matched in strength.

Of course, they did not gather together to fight at this time.

Instead, they fought in groups of three or four or in teams of two, each in their own place.

After all, they are all martial saints of the Dakang Kingdom, and those people in front must have all kinds of interactions, favors, and social interactions.

In fact, even though the two camps are in opposition, they do not hate everyone on the other side.

So there is no swarming to fight.

Basically, the people fighting there are those with whom you have conflicts.

Some martial arts masters talk nonsense and swear while fighting. Some of them are full of foul language, no different from ordinary people.

At this point it had not reached the level of a life-and-death struggle; basically, it was still just a fight.

Although no one was killed among the Martial Saints, it is hard to say whether there were any deaths among ordinary people on the ground.

Some people were very frightened.

A dozen martial saints fought against a dozen martial saints.

It is divided into multiple fighting situations.

Every pair of fighting martial saints would basically scare the residents of an area.

After all, the people must have heard about, understood, and studied the history of this new era.

In the previous hundred years, the harm caused to the people by the fighting among the martial saints of the new era was obvious.

Many innocent people died tragically in the fights between the martial saints, and this situation is often unjustifiable.

So when they saw the Martial Saint flying into the sky above their heads to fight, all the innocent ordinary people were scared out of their wits and quickly ran away with their families and children.

However, it is not just a one-time run and then it’s over.

The martial saints can still fly around.

They will also move during a fight.

Sometimes, when some people had just rushed to a safe area, some martial saints suddenly ran into the sky above their location to fight.

He quickly continued to run for his life.

When many people ran together, they were like ants moving.

Fortunately, the people of the new era have basically practiced ancient immortal martial arts to some extent, and their physical strength and vitality are much stronger than those of the previous era. Otherwise, if they were to run back and forth like this, who knows how many people would have died and how many stampedes would have occurred.

Nowadays, most of the people have practiced ancient immortal martial arts. Although they cannot fly, many of them have strong stamina, agile movements, and can run like cheetahs.

Therefore, we can prevent innocent people from being trampled to death.

But if the Martial Saint in the sky falls down, it will be very difficult to deal with.

Every fall could mean innocent people being affected and someone dying.

For example, at this time Xu Lei saw a martial saint who was knocked flying and directly smashed through a building.

There is definitely no one to compensate for that building, so the owner of this building can only bear the loss himself.

After all, the Martial Saints are all high-ranking officials of the country, and their own life levels are much higher than ordinary people.

In fact, the Dakang court itself did not have such strong control over the Martial Saint.

Everything is suppressed by the majesty of a mysterious masked master.

Of course, it would be fine if only the building was damaged. Even if the building collapsed, some people who have good martial arts skills, such as those who have cultivated to the level of innate strongmen, may still be able to escape the disaster of the building collapse.

However, in this era, because the people are physically stronger, the architecture of the entire society is actually much more powerful than that of the ancient Earth.

Especially in Kyoto, many stone buildings have already appeared a long time ago, and the floors are quite tall.

After all, any innate strong man can carry a large piece of marble, or a more powerful warrior can cut the stone into a very even and flat large piece.

Although no one has invented things like cement yet, some people have invented things that are worse than cement.

Generally speaking, the world is no longer made up entirely of wooden buildings, unlike in ancient times on Earth.

After all, the overall evolution of the people's physique has brought about the strengthening of the overall strength of mankind, so the degree of human development of nature has become more powerful.

After all, the evolution of the human body is actually a force similar to the advancement of science and technology.

Therefore, if some people's martial arts skills are relatively weak, it is still possible that they will be crushed to death in disasters such as building collapse.

Of course, in such a chaotic situation today, the weaker members of ordinary families will be protected by members of the family with better martial arts skills.

So there were basically no casualties.

But if a martial saint happens to hit one or several people, it will be difficult to deal with.

For example, at this time, Xu Lei saw from afar that another Martial Saint was knocked to the ground, with his whole body spinning sideways and smashing down.

It hit the family of three directly, killing them all, and a large hole appeared on the ground.

The Martial Saint who was knocked down was certainly not seriously injured. Although he had some broken bones, his skin was a little damaged, and some blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth, these injuries were nothing more than a slight scratch for the Martial Saint, and he would be able to recover easily later.

But ordinary people who die can only die, and there is no place to seek justice.

You don't even dare to scold me to my face.

I can only curse in private.

So the people were very frightened and continued to flee everywhere.

Some people simply wanted to run out of the city.

But you can't run as fast as the Martial Saint can fly. As soon as you run out of the city, two Martial Saints start fighting and attack you.

The crashing sounds were like thunder, scaring the ordinary people on the ground so much that they trembled and ran around aimlessly like ants on a hot pot.

"It seems that this matter still needs strict regulations."

At this time, Xu Lei couldn't help but think: "Otherwise, every time these martial saints fight like this, it will be a torture for the people on the ground."

Xu Lei had never thought about this problem before, because after he suppressed everything, the martial saints of Dakang rarely fought in their own territory.

"How dare you! Stop it!" Of course, there was no time for Xu Lei to make a move. Soon, a voice shouted loudly.

It was an old man wearing a dragon robe who flew over, accompanied by other martial saints.

It is Da Kang, the current emperor of our country, who has appeared.

The emperor is no one else.

He is Xu Lei’s eighth Martial Saint son.

"Are you crazy? You dare to fight like this here?"

The eighth Martial Saint's son roared again: "Don't you take me, the emperor, seriously?"

However, at this time, a group of martial saints also flew over from the other side, and the martial saints who were fighting just now also stopped.

They joined the troops on both sides respectively.

Soon, dozens of Martial Saints were confronting each other in the sky.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to talk so much nonsense."

However, the son of the Eighth Martial Saint, a young man in the opposite camp, raised his chin and said directly: "It doesn't make sense to you old pedantic people. Since the ideas of governing the country are not in line, why don't we divide Dakang into two parts, each governing a part, and see who governs better, isn't it?

And you don't need to argue with us about laws or no laws, you can't do anything to us. I have also made it clear today that within the territory of Dakang, the Changhe River is the boundary, and we want half of the territory. If you have any objections, then just fight with us again.

Of course, or you can ask your legendary father, the so-called Masked Master, to come out and educate us.

But it's been almost twenty years, where is he? Why is there no sign of him? Aren't you his son?

As the legend goes, how come you, as a son, never stay by your father's side to show your filial piety?

Your Majesty, as an emperor, how can you convince the people if you are so unfilial? "

After hearing these words, some young martial saints around the young martial saint couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Of course, some of the older ones remained silent and just looked around warily.

After all, these young people are fearless like newborn calves.

But those who are relatively older have experienced some of the historical events of that time.

The incident of the two great martial saints of the Tang Dynasty royal family being beheaded by the Masked Master is still vivid in our memory.

However, over the years, there has been no trace of the Masked Lord.

Even the so-called Emperor Dakang could not actually contact the Masked Master.

That's why they suspected that the Masked Master should have died of old age, just like some other Martial Saints who died of old age.

Therefore, they dare to form cliques and factions in order to gain more rights and freedom.

Of course, now, teenagers and young people still dare to laugh, but some old people are still afraid in their hearts.

On the other side, Xu Lei's son, the eighth Martial Saint, had a dark face.

Although these martial saints on the opposite side basically have the blood of the Dakang royal family, to some extent, they can be considered as descendants of him and his father.

But the rebelliousness of the offspring is also very annoying.

Anyone who has children should understand.

How angry I feel when my child rebels.

Especially some children, they are really beastly.

However, the Eighth Martial Saint has no choice now. He is only a Martial Saint and cannot kill other Martial Saints easily.

Now that the other side has united so many martial saints, the situation has actually become a foregone conclusion and it is difficult for him to deal with it.

As for the Masked Lord?
He didn't even know where his father had gone.

He suddenly disappeared decades ago and could not be found no matter how hard he looked. Sometimes he even wondered if his father was really dead as others had speculated.

But we can only try our best to suppress the news.

But I didn’t expect that I still can’t suppress it now.

"Your Majesty, is the Masked Master really gone?"

"Has our Da Kang's Masked Master really grown old?"

"What should we do? Is our Great Kang Kingdom really going to split up?"

In fact, including some Martial Saints around the Eighth Martial Saint, couldn't help but ask questions.

After all, the Eighth Martial Saint's involuntary silence and ugly expression just now were all subconscious behaviors.

Although there is no answer, it is easy for people to have some bad associations.

"Hahahahaha."

At this time, the young Martial Saint who was leading the group on the opposite side also laughed: "It seems that my guess was right. No matter how strong the Masked Venerable is, a Martial Saint can only live for about 300 years. Everyone will eventually die of old age. No one can live forever! In this case, there is nothing more to say. Your Majesty, I will call you Your Majesty for the last time. From now on, we will rule by dividing the river!"

That’s right, at this moment, although they were talking about the issue of land division between countries, it was just like the gangsters in Hong Kong movies on Earth dividing up the territories.

Especially the young man’s face, there is no difference at all.

In fact, most of these people are descendants of the martial saints among the people of Dakang. Although they have intermarried with the royal family of Dakang, they still unconsciously formed certain factions.

Especially in the current situation, when there are no external enemies and the Martial Saints are too idle, they suddenly start fighting among themselves, and they don't realize it.

The eighth son of the Martial Saint gritted his teeth again.

He was so angry.

Back then he followed his father and grandmother. At that time, there were only a few Martial Saints in the Great Kang Kingdom, and they guarded the country together. They never thought that this day would come - they would be bullied by the brat they raised!

"Who said I'm gone?"

Of course, at this moment, an old and powerful voice came from the clouds in the sky: "Who is taking the lead and trying to split up the Great Kang Kingdom?"

This sound, of course, was made by Xu Lei using his magical power.

In his previous lives, Xu Lei had studied the changes in the timbre of sounds when he was describing changes. Now he has done more research on this aspect, and he has become more proficient in using the methods in this area.

He simulated his mouth to be what it was before, and let his magic power flow through his chest. He also simulated his previous body shape and weight.

In this way, when you speak, your voice will be able to resonate into the older style of the past, and the timbre will also be very similar.

"what?"

When these two sentences were heard, all the martial saints present felt as if they were electrocuted. They shivered all over, their scalps tingled, and their pupils contracted.

Everyone got goosebumps all over their body!
"Father! So you are still here! You are finally back!"

The eighth Martial Saint's son was even more ecstatic and turned his head to look up into the sky.

However, the specific location cannot be determined because Xu Lei did it on purpose.

The purpose is to make these people unable to tell where they are exactly.

It makes them feel that the sound is ethereal and makes them feel more mysterious.

"Masked Venerable, still exists?"

"Masked Master, are you still alive?"

"Masked Master, are you back?"

"I was saying, how could the Masked Lord die!"

Even the eyes of the Martial Saints around the Eighth Martial Saint's son lit up.

"Greetings, His Holiness."

Then they all shouted respectfully in unison.

"Your Excellency, we are all bewitched."

“We have no intention of dividing the country.”

"We actually just had a few opinions, and we were bewitched by them."

As for the other people, some of the Martial Saints who were originally standing behind the young Martial Saint and were a little older and had been intimidated by the majesty of the Masked Master in the past, were now so frightened that they turned against him.

They seemed to be begging for mercy.

Then he flew directly to the Eighth Martial Saint's son, trying to please return to the team.

In an instant, the only people left around the arrogant young man were a few ignorant young martial arts masters who had laughed with him just now.

Of course at this time, this young man and those young martial saints had all turned pale.

After all, they had also heard of the name of the Masked Lord.

Knowing this existence, the entire Dakang Kingdom has been suppressed.

Historically, in order to discipline the royal family's promiscuous behavior, he personally took action and killed two great martial saints in succession.

"Impossible, he is not the Masked Lord, he can't be, he can't be alive!"

Of course, the young man immediately said loudly: "How old was he back then? How old was he?
Don’t forget, how many people in history have witnessed with their own eyes that every time he appears, he is actually older than the last time!

You can tell by listening to his voice!

Since he is getting older each time, he must be aging just like the Martial Saint.

After so many years, he should have died of old age! If he didn't die of old age, he should have been too old to be alive!
That’s right, even if he is not dead now, he should be very old and decrepit!
Otherwise, why wouldn't he dare to show up now?

Otherwise, it's a scam?

Yes, it’s your scam, Emperor!

Did you find someone to simulate the voice of the Masked Lord and disguise yourself as the Masked Lord in order to scare me and frighten me?

Don’t believe it, this is all a scam by the emperor!

How can you be so scared just because of two words said by a person who didn't even show his face? Can you please have a little courage?

Even if he is really the Masked Lord, he must be extremely old and has no strength at all!

Yes, that must be the case!
What dog mask lord!
You old thing, come out if you have the guts!
Where are you? Come out!
If you're awesome, come out and challenge me in a one-on-one duel!

Fight me in person!
You're scared, old man? You don't dare!
Why are you being so mysterious? Why are you pretending to be mysterious!
If you have the guts, come out and fight me with real swords and guns!"

This young man is very arrogant and has a very ferocious attitude. No wonder he can become the leader of this group.

Of course, at this point, there was nothing he could do about it.

Because he has no way out.

His performance just now had obviously been noticed by the Masked Master.

If the Masked Lord is real, it is impossible for him to be let go.

So now he has to fight to the end no matter what.

He said this not only to boost his courage and confidence, but also to stabilize the brothers around him who had not yet run away.

He also wanted to use this opportunity to win back those people who had just turned against him.

Of course, there is another point, which is that he is indeed young and energetic!

He started to practice gradually after Xu Lei's death!
Therefore, no one has ever witnessed the majesty and power of the so-called Masked Master when he took action back then!
