Martial arts ascend to the gods

Chapter 411, Volume 6
Rao Mingxian said, "Madam, please see this clearly. Although Zhou Leng and I were old friends, we had long since severed all ties. The reason I was able to escape was because I discovered that the other party was powerful and left in advance, without fighting."

Qiu Fusheng said, "He didn't want to kill Zhou Leng at all! He fought desperately when he encountered Zhang Xiaoxiao, but he wasn't injured at all when he encountered Zhou Leng. It must have been his betrayal that led to the deaths of Gong Futing, Mingzhu Zhihui, and the others."

Rao Mingxian angrily said, "Qiu the Cripple, you're not even human. Zhou Leng should have killed you back then."

“I was originally a member of the Devil Worshippers, I am not human.” Qiu Fusheng sneered.

Rao Mingxian looked at Madam Xiyan and said helplessly, "He only wanted to take revenge on Zhou Leng, so he framed me as well. He has no evidence, only a confession. We, the members of the Demonic Cult, always rely on evidence when we do things."

Qiu Fusheng chuckled and pointed at Rao Mingxian's demonized wristwatch, saying, "I suspect that he secretly communicates with Zhou Leng, and there must be evidence in his martial arts account."

Rao Mingxian felt a tremor in his heart and his whole body stiffened.

shuh...

A sharp, soft whip flew out from the wooden handle and wrapped around Rao Mingxian's right wrist.

Rao Mingxian's face was slightly pale, and cold sweat slowly trickled down his back.

Qiu Fusheng looked at Rao Mingxian smugly. After all these years in the business, what hasn't he seen? How could he dare to come here to report someone if he wasn't confident?

Lady Xiyan raised her hand, and the whip, wrapped around the enchanted wristwatch, flew into her hand.

Point the watch at Rao Mingxian, unlock it with your face, emit a light screen, and open Wu Xin.

Zhou Leng's name was prominently displayed in the chat list.

Madam Xiyan clicks to enter and read the message Rao Mingxian sent to Zhou Lengfa.

"I received information that Aiden and Bright Candlelight are working together to kill you. Gong Futing and Flesh Chariot are also the ones hunting you down."

Madam Xiyan looked up at Rao Mingxian and smiled, "What else do you want to say?"

Rao Mingxian sighed softly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He suddenly turned around and punched Qiu Fusheng on the head.

Qiu Fusheng was only at the Qi and Blood Realm, while Rao Mingxian had already advanced to the Blood Shaking Realm after obtaining the ancient tree fossil, with true qi shaking blood and violent force.

With a loud bang, Qiu Fusheng's head exploded.

The headless corpse lay on the ground, blood flowing freely.

Lady Xiyan's smile remained unchanged, and she said with a hint of amusement, "Kill him, then kill me?"

Rao Mingxian smiled bitterly and said, "Madam is a grandmaster, and I am no match for her. The evidence is conclusive, and I will not argue. I hope Madam will leave me a whole corpse. My Rao family... is now reduced to just myself."

"Why did you risk your life to save Zhou Leng?"

Faced with death, Rao Mingxian remained calm and said, "I have done many wrong things, committed many crimes, and wronged many people, but in this world, there is always one person I cannot wrong, don't you think?"

Madam Xiyan stood up, deleted the chat message, tossed the enchanted wristwatch over, and said, "After cleaning this place, go see Zhao He." She then walked towards the door.

Rao Mingxian looked at Madam Xiyan's back with a puzzled expression.

Madam Xiyan opened the door and went out; her voice came from the corridor.

"The evidence is invalid and will not be accepted."

Rao Mingxian frowned.

"I hope there's no greater torment waiting for me... Zhao He..."

His gaze shifted, and after a moment of contemplation, he decided to first find a demon sorcerer to clean up the area, then contact Shen Jun and head to the hotel where Zhao He was staying.

Behind the brown desk, Zhao He sized up Rao Mingxian.

Rao Mingxian lowered his head slightly, his expression respectful.

"How much do you know about the main branch of the Rao family?"

“I knew almost nothing about it; my family rarely told me. I only recently started to find out some things.”

“Sometimes, the less you know, the safer you are,” Zhao He said.

"That's what you said."

"You are a member of the Demonic Cult, but ultimately you are a member of the Rao family, a member of the Fishman Cult. Do you understand that?"

"I understand. The Rao family has always served the Zhao family, and I am no exception."

"Very good. I heard you've joined the Ancient River Sect. Are you a disciple of the Ancient River Sect?"

"Yes."

"What is there to say?"

"I dare not say."

A shadow crossed Zhao He's eyes, but he said with a gentle smile, "Since you're bound by the sect oath, it's fine not to tell me. Then, can you tell me how I can join the Ancient River Sect?"

Rao Mingxian said, "According to our calculations, the Ancient River Sect will be expanding its recruitment significantly soon. If you want to join, you are 100% guaranteed to succeed."

"Is this the only way?"

"I relied entirely on luck; otherwise, with my qualifications, I would never have been able to enter the Ancient River Sect."

Who is the senior disciple of the Ancient River Sect?

Rao Mingxian looked at the ground, a cold sweat breaking out on his back.

Unexpectedly, Zhao He was investigating Zhou Leng.

Zhou Leng is in danger.

We need to find a way to remind them later.

Zhao He smiled and said, "I looked at the list of participants in the Ancient River Sect trial many times over. Now, let me ask you a different question: do you respect Elder Song more, or Zhang Xinglie more?"

Rao Mingxian looked up at Zhao He, his surprise clearly visible and genuine.

Seeing Rao Mingxian's reaction, Zhao He laughed and said, "Very well, then I'll stop here."

Rao Mingxian looked down at the ground again, thinking to himself that Zhao He was too smart, even too smart.

He was caught off guard and Zhao He mistakenly thought he had guessed correctly, which surprised him.

This is better.

However, if anyone saw that list, they would most likely only think of Song Juesi and Zhang Xinglie, and then consider the others from Yunhua and Jinjing.

Zhao He said, "I have two tasks for you to perform."

"Your command."

"First, keep an eye on Tong Tianxia's whereabouts." "Yes, sir."

"The second thing is that I heard someone saw the 'Six Volumes of Dongjun' in Rucheng. You should mobilize the Rao family's resources to investigate it with all your might."

Rao Mingxian asked doubtfully, "Is the 'Six Volumes of Dongjun' real or fake?"

"Just investigate if I tell you to."

"Yes."

"What do you want? Our Zhao family never mistreats those who do good work."

"Advanced to Grandmaster".

"Quite an appetite, but ambition is a good thing. I'll teach you how to prepare a batch of potions from the merfolk to help you advance to the Bone Forging stage and even Muscle Forging stage as soon as possible. I heard you also consumed many ancient tree fossils in the Tree People world?"

"Yes."

"You haven't fully absorbed the medicinal power yet. With the addition of the magic potion, you can advance to the Muscle Stage in a short time."

"Thank you, Young Master Zhao."

"Remember, focus all your efforts on investigating the 'Six Volumes of Dongjun'; everything else is secondary."

"Yes."

"Go."

"Yes."

Rao Mingxian took a few steps back before turning and leaving.

He walked slowly down the hotel corridor, the thick carpet beneath his feet and the delicate fragrance filling his nostrils.

His eyes burned with ambition that would never be extinguished.

Zhao He is Zhao Sheng's grandson.

He was looking for the "Six Scrolls of Dongjun," which means that Zhao Sheng really left behind the "Six Scrolls of Dongjun."

According to legend, the first five volumes of "Zhao Dongjun's Miscellaneous Works" are simply Zhao Sheng's experiences and insights into martial arts.

However, the "Six Volumes of Dongjun" not only contains the path to sainthood, but also Zhao Dongjun's most complete "Annotations on the Great Sun Divine Skill".

Once someone advances to the Grandmaster level, everyone can switch to practicing the "Great Sun Divine Art." If Zhao Sheng personally annotates it, the cultivation effect will be far more than rapid progress.

If it contains other important information, such as the secret to becoming a saint, it could very well lead to instant enlightenment.

"I never expected Zhao He to assign me this task. It seems I have a special connection with the Six Volumes of Dongjun!"

Rao Mingxian slowly raised his head and walked forward with steady steps.

Previously, he was just an ordinary demonized warrior.

But now, as both a disciple of the Ancient River Sect and the head of the Rao family, and having also acquired a large number of ancient tree fossils in the Treeman World, his state of mind when meeting Zhao He is completely different.

"If Zhao Sheng can do it, so can I!"

Rao Mingxian's ambition grew wildly.

The world of dragons.

Crimson Dragon's Nest.

A huge red dragon lay on the high platform of the dragon's nest.

Below, Emerald Wings lay on the ground with its rear end sticking up high, smooth and elegant.

In front of the Emerald Wings, there are a few scattered fossilized ancient trees.

"I ordered you to join forces with Aiden and the Radiant Candle, and after all this time, all you've brought back are a few fossilized ancient trees?"

Emerald Wings smiled obsequiously, "Your Majesty, I obtained this by killing some foolish monsters. I have been with Lady Xiyan, who is not as beautiful as you, ever since, and she can testify to that."

"She said you've been following her around all the time, doing nothing, like a watchdog in the dragon's den."

"I am Her Majesty's eternal watchdog."

Crimson Eyes sneered and said, "The Great Battlefield will open in a few days. Go home and take a look. You failed to bring back Dragon Scale Fruit last time. If you don't get a single one this time, I'll skin you alive."

Emerald Wings said with a mournful face, "Your Majesty, you know how terrifying the Great Battlefield is. I would rather die than go back."

"Then I'll kill you."

"Actually... there's nothing wrong with going to take a look."

"This time, you're not going to do what you did last time—go in, dig a hole, and find a place to retire, are you?"

"No, no, I will do my best to help you collect treasures and make the collection of the great Crimson Dragon Nest surpass that of all other dragon nests."

"How's the battlefield teammate I asked you to find coming along? How's Aiden?"

Emerald Wings hurriedly shook his head and said, "That grandson is ambitious and reckless. He betrayed the Radiance of Bright Candle at the last moment. He's no good."

"What about the demons?"

"I have sores on my head and pus oozing from the soles of my feet; they all wish they could kill me."

What about other ethnic groups?

"The magician likes to scheme, the treants are all stupid blockheads, the dwarves are little fools, the giants are big fools, and the orcs are not human. There is not a single good partner among them."

“No. Some places can only be entered by non-dragons. I need a capable subordinate to help me explore that Star Abyss. I will not be satisfied until I find out the answer.”

Emerald Wings was terrified and said, "Your Majesty, let's not even talk about whether this battlefield is close to the Star Abyss. Even if it is close to the Star Abyss, the power this time is only enough for a Primordial Being to pass through. If a Primordial Being encounters the Star Abyss, let alone explore it, they will die instantly when they are hit by the Destruction Starlight."

"It's not me who's going to die, so why should I worry?"

"Makes sense."

"Find an alien helper immediately, someone smart and strong. Even if they can't explore the Star Abyss, they can explore places that the dragons can't enter."

Emerald Wings gritted her teeth and thought, "I'm sorry, it's not that I wanted to harm you, it's just that the Scarlet-Eyed Queen is too vicious."

"Your Majesty, I have someone in mind."

"Who?"

"Zhou Leng, a great genius martial artist of the human race. He is ruthless, despicable, and cunning. He is quite intelligent and also quite vicious. Overall, he is actually a good person," said the Emerald Dragon.
