Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 229 The dust has settled
After Huang Sixi took away the magic wheel, he used the light skill "Climbing the Clouds and Riding the Dragon" to fly over the chaotic crowd in the valley and rushed straight towards the Demon Sealing Clan Leader.

As a result, when he rushed to several feet away, a cloud of emerald green smoke suddenly spread out outside the Demon Sealing Clan Leader.

He judged that the green mist must be a highly poisonous substance, and immediately held his breath and concentrated his energy.

But when the green mist floated before his eyes, he looked carefully and found that the Demon Sealing Clan Leader, who was originally only as tall as an ordinary person, actually began to expand on the spot and instantly grew to a height of four or five meters.

In just a blink of an eye, the Demon Sealing Patriarch had grown into a giant over ten feet tall.

Huang Sixi looked up and saw that the Demon Sealing Clan leader was covered in golden armor with eyeballs in between the armor. His appearance was very similar to Guangmu Tianwang among the Four Heavenly Kings.

Huang Sixi remained calm and was certain in his heart: "This Guangmu Heavenly King is definitely not his real body. I must have been hit by the soul transfer illusion!"

But he didn't quite understand.

The soul-transferring illusion requires deep inner strength to perform in order to captivate people, fascinate the mind, and create a series of false illusions.

At this moment, Huang Sixi saw an illusion. Could it be that the inner strength of the Demon Sealing Clan leader was stronger than his own? Huang Sixi felt that it was unlikely.

Just now, the Demon Sealing Clan leader released a green mist. Huang Sixi felt that the strangeness must be caused by the green mist.

He thought to himself, "If the green mist is a hallucinogenic poison that targets the eyes, then I might get poisoned if I'm not prepared!"

He had a guess in his mind, and immediately circulated the Rama Qi to the acupoints in his eye sockets.

Unexpectedly, before Rama's internal breath could circulate, the King of Heaven, Guangmu, in front of him suddenly swung his arm and struck down from the air. His fist was like a small mountain, smashing down on Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi was not sure what the real killing move contained in the fist was, so he did not take it head-on. Instead, he exerted force with his legs and quickly retreated backwards.

The area dozens of feet behind was filled with the gathering crowd of the Demon Sealing Clan.

Huang Sixi had previously thrown several glass poison beads, which instantly poisoned more than thirty people, but there were still more than thirty people who were not affected by the poisonous fog.

After Guangmu Tianwang appeared, the thirty-odd people jumped high at the same time. Their bodies twisted in the air and turned into more than thirty strange birds of prey with fleshy wings.

Those birds of prey had ferocious looks. They flew around Huang Sixi and then surrounded him and pounced on him.

At this time, Huang Sixi had no room to dodge, so he simply turned around on the spot, gathered all the Nine Yang True Qi, and created a rapidly flowing gust of wind outside his body.

As long as those birds of prey got within a few feet of Huang Sixi, they would be instantly blown away by the strong wind, becoming dizzy and out of control, and would either fall to the ground or fly backwards.

Although there were many birds of prey, circling densely around Huang Sixi, they could not hurt Huang Sixi at all.

However, Guangmu Tianwang had already caught up with him, and his huge fist was hanging above Huang Sixi's head again.

This time, Huang Sixi did not choose to escape.

While dealing with the bird of prey just now, Huang Sixi had already channeled the Rama Qi into his face and dispelled the green mist that had seeped into his eyes.

His eyes returned to normal in an instant, and the illusion of King Guangmu disappeared at a glance.

That huge fist transformed into the Demon Sealing Clan Leader.

But the Demon Sealing Clan leader was seen hanging upside down with one arm hanging down. In his palm was a stick coated with poison, which he aimed at Huang Sixi's forehead and struck from above.

Huang Sixi looked at him coldly, then suddenly raised his palms, crossed them and circled them, performing the fifteenth palm of the Dragon Subduing Technique, 'Double Dragons Fetching Water'.

Two palm winds collided above Huang Sixi's head, forming a vortex that easily deflected the Demon Sealing Clan leader's stick, leaving his empty door exposed to Huang Sixi.

The Demon Sealing Clan leader seemed to have sensed murderous intent, his pupils shrank sharply, and he turned around and was about to retreat madly.

But he was only one foot away from Huang Sixi, how could he retreat?

There was a loud bang.

The power of the Dragon Subduing Palm hit the top of the Demon Sealing Clan leader's head solidly, knocking him several feet away. When he fell to the ground, his face was already a bloody mess, and he died on the spot.

Looking at the more than 30 flesh-winged birds of prey around, they had all disappeared without a trace and turned back into the original black-clad cultists.

When they saw Huang Sixi kill the Demon Sealing Clan leader with one palm, they knew that Huang Sixi was a martial arts master and did not dare to continue fighting. They shouted and tried to escape far away.

"Want to run? You're dreaming!"

Huang Sixi lifted up his outer shirt, revealing the jade bee needle bag around his waist, then turned around and fired needles in all directions.

In a short while, all the members of the Demon Sealing Clan in the valley had been killed by the Jade Bee Needles.

Huang Sixi looked at the pile of corpses and found that each person had a fist-sized metal cage ball tied around his waist, and the cages were filled with green smoke.

These green mists are the culprit that caused Huang Sixi to suffer from the illusion of soul transfer.

He guessed that the green mist was a hallucinogenic poison, so he planned to collect the metal cage balls to investigate.

Before he could move over, he suddenly heard a familiar male voice coming from a cave on the side of the valley.

He turned his head and saw a majestic Tang Dynasty official standing in front of the cave entrance.

This official was none other than the Dali Temple Minister Yuchi Zhenjin.

Yuchi Zhenjin laughed and shouted, "Dr. Huang is really skilled. He wiped out the Demon Sealing Clan with just three punches and two kicks. When we return to the Divine Capital, we will definitely be rewarded by the Queen Mother!"

Huang Sixi didn't say anything.

He was able to find this valley after torturing several high-ranking officials in Shangguan Yi's prime minister's residence, and then obtained information about the Demon Sealing Clan's lair.

Yuchi Zhenjin and Shangguan Yi were political enemies, so it was impossible for them to find out the location of the valley in just half a day.

Therefore, Huang Sixi judged that the 'Yuchi Zhenjin' in front of him was also an illusion of soul transfer.

However, Huang Sixi repeatedly circulated the Rama Qi to continuously warm his eyes, and the appearance of 'Yuchi Zhenjin' did not change at all.

This shows that 'Yuchi Zhenjin' is a real person and not an illusion.

Huang Sixi couldn't help but guess: "Could it be that this person just used an ordinary disguise to pretend to be Yuchi Zhenjin?"

He saw 'Yuchi Zhenjin' walking towards him, only two feet away.

He suddenly raised his hand and quickly performed the "One Yang Finger" move.

His internal energy shot out from his fingertips, invisible and soundless, and with a "swish!", it hit the vital point on Yuchi Zhenjin's chest.

'Yuchi Zhenjin' instantly froze in place.

Huang Sixi then stepped over, stretched out his hand and pinched Yuchi Zhenjin's face, and soon found a human skin mask.

When he took off the human skin mask from Yuchi Zhenjin's face, the man's appearance had changed into another unfamiliar face.

“So that’s how it is!” Huang Sixi suddenly realized: “The Demon Sealing Clan is not only proficient in the art of soul transfer, but also knows how to disguise themselves!”

Huang Sixi thought of the original story of "Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings", in which the Demon Sealing Clan made a big fuss in the palace. Yuchi Zhenjin went to track them down, but he met a man who looked exactly like Yuchi Zhenjin. He killed the palace guards and then framed Yuchi Zhenjin, causing him to be wrongfully imprisoned.

Huang Sixi realized only then that the impostor must have been wearing a human skin mask to disguise himself as Yuchi Zhenjin.

Huang Sixi casually put the human skin mask back on Yuchi Zhenjin's face. This was a living witness.

If the real murderer who pretended to be Huang Sixi was also wearing a human skin mask and was found by Huang Sixi, the Swallow Tower murder case could be completely solved.

Huang Sixi turned his gaze and looked towards the entrance of the stone cave behind Yuchi Zhenjin.

At this moment, the cave is filled with thick green fog, which effectively blocks the view.

Huang Sixi had no idea how many ambushes of the Demon Sealing Clan were hidden in the cave.

He did not rush into the cave, but looked around the valley.

It was early spring, and the mountains and fields were covered with flowers. He took out a honey bottle, threw it into the cave, and then accumulated his inner strength and hummed. His inner strength was deep, and even with the mountains blocking his way, his voice could reach several miles away.

The bees that were collecting honey within a radius of several miles were summoned by his voice and swarmed in, rushing into the cave.

A moment later, screams were heard in the cave.

I saw two figures rushing out of the cave in panic.

As soon as the two men ran out of the door, Huang Sixi used Yi Yang Finger to subdue them and press their acupoints.

Huang Sixi waved his hand again, and the swarm of bees scattered.

He glanced at the two men's faces and couldn't help but smile.

The two men had human skin masks on their faces.

The tall young man on the left is not someone else, but Huang Sixi, who should be the real murderer of the Yanzilou bloody case.

The human skin mask worn by the old woman on the right is Wu Zetian's mother, the old lady of Rongguo.

Huang Sixi thought to himself: "This group of people from the Demon Sealing Clan are so bold and daring that they even plan to disguise themselves as royal relatives and then control the government of the Tang Dynasty!"

When Huang Sixi returned to the bloody world, he did just that, replacing the Qing emperor, empress, princes, and governors from top to bottom.

Huang Sixi could never have imagined that the Demon Sealing Clan actually had such wild ambitions.

However, the Demon Sealing Clan's plan had just begun when it was aborted by Huang Sixi.

Huang Sixi was very interested in the "human skin mask" disguise technique of the Demon Sealing Clan, so he searched the fake "Yuchi Zhenjin", "Huang Sixi" and "Old Lady Rongguo", and soon found a sheepskin scroll.

This parchment scroll was introduced to China from the Western Regions. It contains detailed information on how to make human skin masks.

Huang Sixi was delighted after seeing it: "When I used to disguise myself, I always used yellow mud, but the mud would be destroyed when it came into contact with water. The human skin mask does not have such a defect. This method will be of great use to me!"

However, the practice of this method was quite complicated, so Huang Sixi temporarily put the parchment scroll away and planned to study it slowly when he had free time in the future.

Afterwards, Huang Sixi collected all the metal cage balls left in the valley, as well as weapons and items related to the soul-transferring illusion, and put them all into the "Qiankun Yiqi Bag".

After he confirmed that there were no omissions at the scene, he took the three counterfeit "Yuchi Zhenjin", "Huang Sixi" and "Old Lady Rongguo" back to the capital.

Long before he rushed to the valley, he had originally planned to go to the Monkey Forest of Sanzang Temple first and let the white ape accompany him.

But he took into consideration that the abbot of Sanzang Temple, Yuance, was also proficient in the art of soul-transferring illusion. If Abbot Yuance had any connection with the Demon-Sealing Clan, if he went to look for the white ape, he would easily alert the enemy.

To be on the safe side, Huang Sixi rushed to the Demon Sealing Clan's lair in the valley alone.

He did not ride a horse, but came here on foot using his Qing Kung Fu. He was now using his inner strength to run at full speed, and was actually faster than a horse.

This valley is far away from the capital of God.

When Huang Sixi escorted the three people back to the capital, it was already dusk.

Huang Sixi went directly to Yanzi Tower.

Yuchi Zhenjin kept his promise and personally stayed by the side of Feng Xian'er and more than ten other official prostitutes, protecting them every step of the way.

Huang Sixi handed the three criminals over to Yuchi Zhenjin and explained in detail the three's disguise activities.

Yuchi Zhenjin was furious after hearing this. He rushed to the fake 'Yuchi Zhenjin', slapped him and cursed: "You lowly criminal want to pretend to be the descendant of a meritorious general, you don't deserve it!"

He wanted to cut the fake 'Yuchi Zhenjin' into pieces, but he also knew that the matter was of great importance. The Demon Sealing Clan wanted to pretend to be royal relatives and disrupt the government, which would directly threaten the Tang Dynasty royal family.

Yuchi Zhenjin immediately took the three criminals to the palace to report to the Queen Mother.

Huang Sixi was worried that Feng Xian'er and more than a dozen other courtesans would be threatened, so he stayed in Yanzi Tower that night with the remaining Dali Temple officials.

The next morning.

Yuchi Zhenjin returned to Yanzi Tower and revealed to Huang Sixi: "Dr. Huang, last night, His Majesty and the Queen Mother learned of the conspiracy of the Demon Sealing Clan to impersonate the 'Madam of Rong State'. They were so angry that they did not sleep the whole night. These evil villains dared to impersonate the 'Madam of Rong State' today, and they will dare to impersonate His Majesty and the Queen Mother tomorrow. The two saints have issued an order to hunt down the remnants of the Demon Sealing Clan in the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Even if they escape outside the Tang Dynasty, the two saints will send heavenly soldiers to uproot them!"

This was within Huang Sixi's expectations. Any force that threatened the imperial rule would be eradicated.

Huang Sixi asked again: "The Demon Sealing Clan would not impersonate me and commit crimes without reason. Did they commit the crime alone, or were they hired by someone? Has the Dali Temple investigated it clearly?"

Huang Sixi used the "Soul Transfer Technique" to torture Prime Minister Shangguan Yi and learned that Shangguan Yi had an affair with the Demon Sealing Clan.

But outsiders will not understand the truth.

Yuchi Zhenjin said, "Last night, the three evil thieves of the Demon Sealing Clan who pretended to be me, Divine Doctor Huang, and Madam Rongguo confessed that they were a subordinate butler hired by the current Prime Minister Shangguan Yi. However, this subordinate butler has been silenced. There is no evidence to show that Shangguan Yi has any connection with the Demon Sealing Clan!"

Huang Sixi asked, "How did your Majesty and the Queen Mother deal with it?"

Yuchi Zhenjin raised the corner of his mouth, looking quite gloating: "I, a humble servant, don't have the guts to do such a thing. Your Majesty and the Queen Mother both think that Shangguan Yi is the mastermind behind this. On my way to see Divine Doctor Huang, Shangguan Yi had his property confiscated, was executed, and his women were sent to the music academy as slaves!"

Wu Zetian would definitely put Shangguan Yi to death.

But Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi understood that Shangguan Yi was an enemy of Wu Zetian and his purpose was to depose Wu Zetian's power so that Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi could monopolize power.

However, the counterfeiting behavior committed by the Demon Sealing Clan was too outrageous and had touched the bottom line of Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi.

Li Zhi hated Shangguan Yi deeply for his incompetence in doing his job, which led to the Demon Sealing Clan having the opportunity to disrupt the government. Shangguan Yi had good intentions but his behavior was extremely foolish.

Since ancient times, emperors have all been mean and ungrateful people. Shangguan Yi did not meet Li Zhi's expectations, so naturally he could not get Li Zhi's protection. Wu Zetian proposed to exterminate Shangguan Yi's entire family, and Li Zhi readily agreed.

Finally, the final verdict of the Swallow Tower murder was passed on by the Dali Temple to the whole government:

"Prime Minister Shangguan Yi colluded with the deposed Crown Prince Li Zhong and plotted a rebellion. He recruited criminals from the Demon Sealing Clan and used magic to impersonate medical officers to murder fourteen women. He attempted to frame the medical officers and implicate the current empress. His heart is worthy of death and his actions are unforgivable. I order Li Zhong to be executed and Shangguan Yi's entire clan to be executed as a warning to others..."

The entire case lasted more than three months.

Wu Zetian took advantage of every opportunity to wipe out all the forces opposing her in the court and the country. She listed all the crimes related to the Demon Sealing Clan, and when the case was concluded, Emperor Gaozong Li Zhi began to lose power, and the government of the Tang Dynasty was controlled by Wu Zetian.

As the core figure of the entire case, Huang Sixi rose rapidly to become the chief doctor of the Tang Dynasty royal family and his fame spread throughout the capital.

Wu Zetian's close confidant Yuchi Zhenjin was transferred from the Dali Temple and promoted to the rank of General of the Jinwu Guard, responsible for protecting the capital and the imperial palace, and responsible for the safety of the Emperor and Empress of the Tang Dynasty. The new Dali Temple Minister was Di Renjie, who was recommended by the Minister of Works, Lord Yan.

Huang Sixi still practices medicine in his Sixi Pharmacy, inheriting Master Sanzang's last wishes and treating illnesses for people all over the world.

After Yin Ruiji was released from Yanzi Tower, she was appointed by Wu Zetian as an eighth-rank female official in the Imperial Medical Bureau because of her meritorious service in serving the old lady of Rongguo. Although she had no imperial decree, she was an official of the Tang Dynasty court, specializing in treating patients of the female members of the Tang Dynasty royal family.

Wu Zetian appreciated Yin Ruiji so much, but in fact, Yin Ruiji knew nothing about medicine.

In the past three months, Yin Ruiji moved into the Sixi Pharmacy and lived with Huang Sixi day and night. She racked her brains to study the medical classics taught to her by Huang Sixi.

this day.

Yin Ruiji held a Buddhist "Diamond Sutra" in her hand. She recited it over and over again dozens of times, but she could not figure out what the "Diamond Sutra" had to do with medical skills.

She pushed open Huang Sixi's door and said with a smile, "My dear, I have run into a problem again. I came to you to ask for help!"

Huang Sixi was looking at his Dragon Subduing Sword embryo. After more than three months of forging, the Dragon Subduing Sword had already taken shape.
Seeing Yin Ruiji coming over in all her splendor, he immediately put down the sword embryo and waved to her: "What's the problem? Come over and tell me!"

Yin Ruiji smiled, swung the silk between her arms, bringing up a gust of fragrant wind, and then her body tilted and collapsed in Huang Sixi's arms.

She seemed to be born with a charming demeanor. She stretched out her arms, wrapped them around Huang Sixi's neck, and said with a silly smile, "When I see you, it seems like all the difficult problems have been solved. Don't you think so, my dear?"

Seeing her tenderness and affection, Huang Sixi felt more and more fond of her, and he couldn't help but hug her tighter and closer.

Seeing her beautiful face and graceful figure, Huang Sixi nodded at her: "Tell me what problem you have encountered, and I will solve it for you!"

Yin Ruiji suddenly looked affectionate, she looked directly at Huang Sixi: "My dear, I want to look at you like this for the rest of my life, and you want me to hold you like this for the rest of my life, my dear, what do you think, is it possible?"
