Man covers the sky and conquers all worlds

Chapter 124 I refuse

At the foot of Erlong Mountain, several large teams coming from the city of Bianjing collided with each other.

Two of the teams had fluttering flags and were filled with armored soldiers. They were simply incomparable to other small forces.

The small forces that were active in their hearts suddenly dispersed, leaving the main road to these two teams.

In the leading team, the curtain of a luxurious sedan chair was slowly lifted. The imperial general Su Yuanjing raised his eyes slightly, and his voice sounded like a torrent of river.

"The dynasty hasn't even fallen yet, but Prime Minister Cai is so impatient... Is he planning to defect to another leader?"

At one end of the avenue, there was another team that refused to give in.

A nine-foot-tall man pulled the reins of a beast-like warhorse and slowly walked in front of Su Yuanjing. A hint of murderous intent was revealed in his phoenix eyes.
"That self-proclaimed sage, the upright and incorruptible General Su, would also come to pay his respects?"

The man's voice was low, like the whistling of grinding yellow sand.

But it instantly pointed out the embarrassing position of General Su.

Su Yuanjing seemed not to have heard what he said, but just smiled and bowed towards the direction of Bianjing City.

"Prime Minister Cai's disciples are truly filled with talented people! I represent the current sages, and you want to compete with me?"

"Your Excellency, please!"

Guan Sheng lowered his almond-shaped eyes, and a hint of sarcasm flashed across the depths of his eyes.

He had not expected that this present saint, apart from eating, drinking and having fun, was actually extremely tolerant.

Even though he was already stuck in the mud, he still did something like that.

But on second thought, a strange impulse emerged in his heart.

Although Cai Jing was a powerful minister who could bring him fame, fortune and honor, he could never help him advance in martial arts.

Guan Sheng, as a descendant of Guan Yu and a second-rank grandmaster of the time, has only a cooperative relationship with Cai Jing.

A wise bird chooses the right tree to roost in, and he... seems to have found a new direction!

The two teams, with very different thoughts, walked up along the wide mountain path.

……

In the gathering hall of Erlong Mountain, Su Yuanjing felt the oppression that was so heavy that it was about to solidify into substance, and tried his best to calm his heart.

He unfolded the imperial edict in his hand, and his voice echoed in the hall.
"The emperor is destined to be carried by heaven, and the edict says:"

When the voice sounded, the expressions of the warriors in the hall remained unchanged, as if they had not heard it.

Even Guan Sheng, who was also a general of the imperial court, just picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea.

Not the slightest movement.

"What a bunch of rebellious people who don't obey discipline..."

Su Yuanjing's eyes were deep, taking in everyone's reactions, and he continued,

"I have received the favored mandate of Heaven and inherited the great foundation laid by our great ancestors. However, I am mindful that while the world is at peace, the barbarians are still watching... I have recently heard that your fame has spread throughout the land, and your fists have shaken the nine states... Although you once retreated into seclusion, it was due to treacherous officials obscuring your talents, leaving your pearl in the dust... I now issue this decree to make it known to the world!"

"..."

"One day, Li Jing's portrait will be painted on the Lingyan Pavilion. Guo Ziyi's strategy will be recorded in history and will be remembered forever!"

"Announce it to the world, and let all know!"

The drafted edict of Zhao'an was both long and boring.

The general content: One of them is to pardon Li Ming of many crimes he committed as a bandit.

The second is to grant Li Ming many honors and titles, and even grant him the honor of establishing a government, a red-lettered iron certificate, and the right to personally recruit 3,000 armored guards!

The third is to allow Li Ming to study the martial arts books collected by the Song Dynasty, and he can choose three of the magic weapons in the treasure house.

As for the so-called privileges such as not kneeling before the emperor, waiting for the emperor to tour the country, and executing first and reporting later, there are countless of them.

The only thing that was not mentioned was what was said at dawn that day.

This shows that the Calligraphy Emperor has a very clear understanding of the First-Rank Martial Saint. Unfortunately... Li Ming has always wanted only the highest authority in this world!
He wants... to be the emperor of mankind!

In his opinion, the only outstanding thing in this letter of amnesty was the handwriting, which was indeed written with sharp edges and thin strokes.

He can be regarded as a top-notch calligrapher in the calligraphy world!
But... this world cannot be changed by the will of calligraphy after all.

Su Yuanjing glanced at the empty main seat where the black and white giant tiger was squatting, and opened his mouth to say something.

The next moment, his vision shook slightly, and the air that had almost condensed into substance suddenly began to flow.

He suddenly noticed that there was a human figure beside the black and white tiger.

The man just stood there silently, but he felt a huge pressure on him as if the sky was collapsing, making him feel dry in the mouth and short of breath.

This kind of oppression was even more shocking than when he fought alone against the Cai Party in the court.

Even with his strength as a third-rank warrior and the cunning he had accumulated over the years, they were all wiped out in front of this man.

This is the sacredness above the nine heavens, and it is probably beyond the boundaries of mortals. Even if the current emperor has the dragon energy, he is comparable to the first rank.

But... can we really defeat him? ...

Su Yuanjing sighed in his heart, and beads of sweat the size of beans rolled down his forehead and shattered on the ground.

On the high platform, Li Ming's eyes were clear as he glanced at the many rare treasures displayed in the hall, and he said lightly,

“The stuff is pretty good!”

Su Yuanjing's heart, which had been hanging in the air, suddenly felt relieved.

In order to prepare for the sincerity brought this time, the extravagant saint spared no expense.

No one knows better than the Zhao family how much benefit they can gain if they can get a first-class martial saint to command them!

Even if the current saint is comparable to a martial saint when the dragon energy enters his body, he is still limited to the scope of Bianjing City.

A martial saint who can travel around the world can do so many things.

If he could accomplish this, then Su Yuanjing would definitely be on par with many other counselors and envoys in history books!

Su Yuanjing didn't dare to meet Li Ming's eyes that could see through people's hearts, and quickly lowered his head.
"These...are all bestowed upon you by the current Saint. No! Now they should be called the Guardian of the Nation's Martial Power and the Manifestation of the Holy Truth..."

"Nonsense, no need to say more!"

He had barely begun to speak, before he could even imagine what it would be like when his name would go down in history, when dawn interrupted him.

It's going to happen!

Su Yuanjing's body, shrouded in purple robe, trembled suddenly. When he saw those calm and indifferent eyes, his heart was frozen.

But now that things have come to this, he can only grit his teeth and continue.

"The Saint does not wish to make an enemy of a Martial Saint like you, and hopes that I can help resolve the feud between you and the court."

"From now on, whether you want to become a general or a prime minister, or to establish a sect, the court will allow you more convenience."

Under the Zhongyi Hall, you can hear a pin drop.

The few heroes who could step into this place looked at each other in bewilderment.

For the emperor of a country to be able to achieve this level can be said to be extremely well-intentioned.

This... is simply creating a king of a different surname with real power!

On the high platform, Dawn's expression remained unchanged.

This kind of condition is extremely generous.

But the next moment, Su Yuanjing heard a plain voice, yet words as heavy as a mountain, falling on his heart.

"But I...refuse!"
