Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 166 Solve One First

"Hey!"

Upon hearing this, Eunuch Hou became anxious and quickly said, "Master Leng, that's not what you said. Hurry up and wait for His Majesty, or he will accuse you of disobeying His Majesty's order!"

"Eunuch Hou's mood hasn't changed much?"

Leng Feibai thought quickly in his mind, "There are three possibilities. Either Eunuch Hou knows nothing, or I am overthinking it, or Eunuch Hou is a seasoned man who can control his emotions and not make any mistakes."

Thinking of this, Leng Feibai quickly said, "In that case, I'll go up and wait. It's a good opportunity to go over and see if there are any fearless guys lying in ambush up there."

After saying that, Leng Feibai used the Cloud-Stepping Step and flew directly to the roof.

Leng Feibai rushed all the way, passed through the clouds on the mountainside, and came to the stairs on the mountain road.

At the same time, four figures appeared in Leng Feibai's eyes.

"It's them?"

When Leng Feibai saw his acquaintance, he flew over and stopped the people who were going up the mountain. He smiled and said, "Your Highnesses, long time no see!"

When the youngest Li Chengping saw Leng Feibai flying out from the clouds, he was so scared that he almost fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Li Chengru smiled and said, "Brother Leng, why are you here?"

"His Majesty has ordered me to go to the top of the mountain to protect his safety!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "Your Highnesses, are you also going to the top of the mountain to enjoy the flowers?"

Li Chengqian and Li Chengze ignored Leng Feibai. Li Chengru nodded and said, "I was wondering why the emperor withdrew the imperial guards from the Hanging Temple. It turns out he wanted you to be his personal bodyguard!"

"Yes!"

When Emperor Qing's voice sounded, the five people turned around and saw Emperor Qing coming to them with several palace maids and eunuchs.

"See Your Majesty!"

Several people saluted. Emperor Qing waved his hand and said to Leng Feibai, "Where is Eunuch Hou?"

"Down there!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "I was worried about Your Majesty, so I used my Qinggong to fly up here!"

"You are loyal!"

Emperor Qing waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's go up together."

After hearing this, Leng Feibai said nothing and followed Emperor Qing to the top floor of the Hanging Temple.

The refreshing mountain breeze blew in his face at this moment. Leng Feibai looked at the scenery on the highest platform without any reaction on his face.

Seeing this, Emperor Qing smiled and asked, "Leng Feibai, at the banquet at the Hall of Prayer for Good Harvests, you said you traveled the world in search of magnificent scenery. What do you think of the scenery here?"

Leng Feibai remained expressionless after hearing this, and said calmly, "I will climb to the top of the mountain and look down on all the other mountains. The scenery here at the Hanging Temple is truly a rare sight."

"You will be at the top of the mountain, and you will be able to see all the mountains and small mountains at a glance!"

Emperor Qing laughed after hearing this and said, "What a beautiful line! Is this poem also from the immortal realm?"

Leng Feibai nodded. "Yes, it's another poem written by the one who wrote "The Sad Autumn in a Thousand Miles"."

After hearing this, Emperor Qing stood up and walked to the observation deck. Looking at the lush sea of ​​chrysanthemums below, he asked, "So what do you think of the flowers down there?"

“She really looks good!”

Leng Feibai still had that indifferent look on his face as he said, "But I prefer wintersweet. It blooms even in the bitter cold, yet it still blooms and grows. Its fiery red color is so festive!"

As soon as the words fell, before Emperor Qing could speak, a voice suddenly came from below.

"Go away, go out!"

Upon hearing the noise, Leng Feibai and Li Chengru's faces changed instantly, and they rushed to the edge of the viewing platform to watch carefully.

I saw black smoke billowing out of a small wooden house not far below.

Seeing this, Li Chengru hurriedly said, "Father, there's a fire in the corridor. Do you want to..."

It’s no wonder that Li Chengru was so worried. The entire Hanging Temple was made entirely of wood, without a single brick or tile.

If the fire gets bigger, the entire Hanging Temple will be destroyed.

Emperor Qing still looked nonchalant. "Hasn't the fire reached here yet? Ye Chong is still watching from below. It's not your turn to worry about it."

Seeing Emperor Qing's indifferent look, Li Chengru glanced at Leng Feibai, wanting him to follow suit and persuade him.

But Leng Feibai seemed to have seen nothing, and instead played a little tune on the side.

Leng Feibai's behavior immediately caught the attention of the others, and Emperor Qing took the opportunity to say, "Look at him. What do you call this? This is called facing a mountain collapse, yet remaining calm. All of you, calm down."

Before the princes could react, Fan Xian's voice came from outside.

"Your Majesty, someone set a fire, and I am here to protect you!"

Upon hearing this, Emperor Qing stood up and walked to the side, only to see Fan Xian hanging in the air with one hand holding onto the roof ridge.

"What are you doing hanging there!?"

Emperor Qing looked at Fan Xian's funny expression and said unhappily, "You're already married, yet you're still acting like a child. Come in quickly!"

After saying this, Emperor Qing turned and walked away from the window, signaling Fan Xian not to hang there anymore.

Fan Xian cursed inwardly and could only fly in.

At the same time, Li Chengru hurriedly said, "Father, a fire that started for no reason is no small matter. I suggest that Ye Zhong dispatch the Imperial Guards to the Hanging Temple, just in case!"

"Your Highness is right!"

As soon as Fan Xian entered, he hurriedly said, "The Hanging Temple is located on a cliff. If there were to be trouble now, Your Majesty's safety would be in jeopardy. Your Majesty, please..."

"stop!"

Emperor Qing's gaze remained fixed on the sea of ​​flowers below, as he spoke to himself, "A few assassins are nothing. Besides, with Leng Feibai here, is there any need for me to retreat?"

Leng Feibai glanced around after hearing this, then clasped his fists towards Emperor Qing and said, "Your Majesty, I have a question for you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Emperor Qing turned around and looked at Leng Feibai, "Why, you want me to retreat too?"

"No, no, no!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "I just want to ask Your Majesty, the eunuchs here shouldn't need to carry daggers when serving Your Majesty, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present was shocked at the same time.

Leng Feibai made a move and grabbed towards his right side through the air.

A eunuch holding a tray, with a dagger hidden under the tray, flew out and fell directly into Leng Feibai's hands.

Without waiting for Emperor Qing to speak, the eunuch who had dropped the dagger threw the object in his hand directly at Leng Feibai.

"court death!"

Leng Feibai suddenly slapped out with his palm, smashing the tray and the wine jug inside into pieces.

At the same time, the dagger in Leng Feibai's hand flew out and stabbed into the eunuch's neck!

"Ok!"

The eunuch groaned and collapsed to the ground.

The incident lasted only a moment, and by the time the others came to their senses, the eunuch had already died.

"Hahaha!"

Emperor Qing laughed loudly, "Look, didn't I tell you? With Leng Feibai here, why should I worry about this moment? Come, give me some wine!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!"

Leng Feibai politely declined, "However, Your Majesty, could you please give me a few cakes so I can try something new?"

"You're such a greedy person!"

After Emperor Qing finished speaking, he looked at Eunuch Hou and said, "Go, bring this kid a plate of cakes!"

After hearing this, Eunuch Hou immediately ran over and brought a plate of snacks to Leng Feibai.
