Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 76 Unbelievable, the Strong One Comes from the West

"Your Highness, the Emperor has a strong character and should not be underestimated."

"Not as good as..."

Among several figures, someone made a gesture to cut the grass at its roots, but was met with roll of the eyes from others.

"Even if you can conceal your true identity by doing this, what do you think of His Highness?"

"The traitor who murdered the king and proclaimed himself emperor?"

"Humph, nonsense."

The person who spoke snorted coldly, "Since ancient times, the emperor has always been a man with strong military forces. Your Highness has a million soldiers, and Tiance and Cangyun are the most powerful armies in the world. Why can't Your Highness take that position?"

"Rebellious ministers and traitors, who is the king and who is the minister? Who is the thief?"

"When Your Highness reigns supreme, there will be great scholars debating the sutras for Your Highness. These idle words are nothing to worry about."

"Bullshit, is that just gossip? Hasn't the Sima family's lesson been enough? Do you want Your Highness to be written down by historians like Sima Zhao, and be despised by the world for eternity?"

"They dare?"

"Why not? Those scholars fear death, but there are always those who are not afraid of death. Scholars are not completely proud. Do you dare to gamble with your highness's reputation on this possibility?"

"All right!"

Zhu Jinzhen got a headache after hearing this and had to step out to stop them.

"I don't care about my reputation after death, but there's no need to bear unnecessary infamy. You're all my confidants, so it's okay to tell you some things."

"I met the Emperor today. My luck is illusory and shaky. I'm afraid it's not far away."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole room fell into dead silence.

The few people who had just been arguing with their faces flushed with anger all looked horrified.

It would be hard for anyone to calm down after hearing such news.

A staff member and advisor of Prince Su's Palace asked cautiously, "Your Highness, the Emperor is in his prime, how could he..."

It has only been a short ten years since the Hongzhi Dynasty. The Zhengde Emperor was at the peak of his power, and he himself had reached the master level of the Zhixuan Realm. Although in the eyes of His Highness, his realm was superficial and was achieved by forcing things.

But at least it is real Zhixuan cultivation, right?
How could he die soon?
Zhu Jinzhen spun his teacup, revealing a meaningful smile. "His yin and yang, the five energies, are out of balance. It's hard to say if it's due to his cultivation technique, a murder attempt, or something else entirely. But his luck is certainly not as solid as it was when I met him five years ago. It's shaky and crumbling."

"If we don't stop it, the emperor will probably die in a year at most."

Is it Confucianism or destiny?

A conspiracy or something else.

Zhu Jinzhen was not clear about it for the time being. He was a celestial being, and there was nothing hidden in what he saw, but he was not omniscient. When it came to the way of destiny, it was his blind spot in knowledge. He could only see through the facts but could not trace the causes.

Naturally, no one would doubt Zhu Jinzhen's words.

Even the two people who had been arguing the most fiercely just now looked at each other and nodded in unison: "If that's the case, there is really no need to dirty His Highness's sword and tarnish the name of our Su Wang Mansion."

"However, since we already know the Emperor... then we should make preparations early."

"I have already made plans for this matter." Zhu Jinzhen nodded. Before he met Zhu Houzhao, he was still unsure whether the historical trajectory of the Zongwu world would proceed as he knew.

But when he saw the crumbling luck of Zhu Houzhao, he knew that this Emperor Zhengde might not be able to escape his fate.

Prince Su's Mansion doesn't need to do anything.

All we need to do is wait and see when the opportunity arises. Zhu Jinzhen's playful smile widened. "Although the Emperor's previous words were drunken, he underestimated the power of heaven. I will make his words come true. It's time to wake those termites up and let them know who is in charge of this world!"

"what?"

As Zhu Jinzhen was speaking, he suddenly exclaimed in surprise and looked in a certain direction.

"what happened?"

Several staff and think tanks in the room were curious but did not dare to ask.

Zhu Jinzhen seemed to know what they were thinking and explained, "A powerful master has come from afar."

He stared at a certain direction for a moment. Although the other party was hiding very well, with his aura restrained within his body and dispersed invisibly, blending into the world, he could not hide from his celestial perception.

"To be called a powerful master by you, could it be that a land immortal has arrived?"

"I'm afraid, it's more than..."

Zhu Jinzhen shook his head. If it was a land immortal, it would be impossible for him to have such a faint sense of crisis. "Interesting, coming all the way here at this time, could it be because of that?"

Which?

The staff and think tanks present quickly guessed something.

"Your Highness, are you saying that a powerful person has come to the West in pursuit of the Water and Fire Dragon Ball?"

"It's almost the same." Zhu Jinzhen nodded. A person who is infinitely close to the celestial being on land, or may even be a strong person at the celestial being level on land, suddenly came to Jiayuguan at this time. Apart from the water and fire dragon balls, what else could it be for?
Could it be that it was to challenge him?
"That……"

"no need to worry."

Zhu Jinzhen raised the corner of his lips, "He came at the wrong time."

Almost at the moment Zhu Jinzhen finished speaking, the sky above Tiance Mansion suddenly became windy and cloudy, and the wind and clouds were shattered and thundering, forming purple thunders above the sky. Powerful and terrifying auras and spear intentions filled the sky and rushed straight into the sky.

"Time flies so fast!"

Zhu Jinzhen stood up and walked to the window, opened it, looked at the sky full of wind and clouds, and smiled faintly: "It's much faster than the overdue time. From now on, among all the countries in the world, I am the tiger and wolf, the dragon of the nine heavens."

"The whole world will be under my feet!"

Seven land immortals are enough to shake the power of all countries in the world. It is not the end, but the beginning. It is just the first step for Prince Su’s Mansion to officially declare its invincibility to the world of Zongwu and all countries in the world!

"The realm of immortals on land."

"More than one?!"

Zhang Sanfeng noticed something unusual and walked out of the room, but was so surprised by the scene before him that he almost pulled his beard off.

He felt it most deeply when he was in the Tiance Mansion, when the endless oppressive feeling around him, like mountains and waves, kept hitting him like a tidal wave.

Zhang Sanfeng knew that this was not his illusion.

In one day, the Tiance Mansion produced seven land-based immortals!

However, is such a thing really possible?
Zhang Sanfeng couldn't help but wonder, "Are these people newly promoted land immortals? Or are they hidden masters of Tiance Mansion? I've sensed several unfamiliar celestial auras before, could they be them?"

He doesn't understand.

After a lifetime of seeking the truth, if it were not for Zhu Jinzhen's "guidance", the old Taoist would still be trapped as a terrestrial immortal, unable to take the last half step and enter the realm of celestial beings on earth.

But now he was told that Zhu Jinzhen used unknown means to make seven great masters of celestial phenomena break through to become terrestrial immortals at the same time in one day. How could Zhang Sanfeng accept this shock?

This is a land immortal, whose every move can bring about a thousand feet of sharpness, his aura can swallow mountains and rivers, his thoughts can move the heaven and earth, he is a living immortal roaming on land, and he is a pillar of every country in the world!
