Take charge of Ascension

Chapter 298 The Road to Peace

Received by Emperor Zhou Hong of Wu Kingdom, Zhao Ji thought that he could witness the scene of quarrels between civil and military ministers in the early court, but he did not expect that after the procedure was completed, he got a real dragon pill and was kicked out of the court.

Originally, Zhao Ji was still a little dissatisfied, but after Liu Or explained to him what the True Dragon Pill was, the imbalance in Zhao Ji's heart completely subsided.

True Dragon Pill is a kind of elixir specially given to innate warriors. After taking it, the 36 acupoints in the warrior's body can be easily opened by borrowing the power of the elixir.

For a congenital martial artist, every time one level of cultivation advances, one or twelve acupoints need to be opened up, 36 acupoints, which is equivalent to advancing three levels in a row.

Although the True Dragon Pill can only open up the acupoints, it will not increase the true energy of the innate warrior, but the effect is extremely extraordinary, it is equivalent to breaking through the bottleneck in advance, and only needs to accumulate the true energy.

The cultivation of innate warriors, to accumulate true energy, needs to be accumulated while refining acupoints, which slows down the speed a lot, and without the hindrance of acupoints, the speed of cultivation will be greatly accelerated.

It has been a while since he came to the Heaven Realm, and Zhao Ji also knew that although there are pills in the Heaven Realm, the number of pills is not much and they are very rare. Zhou Hong bestowed a True Dragon Pill, which is considered generous.

Zhao Ji came to Yecheng for nothing too important, just to strengthen the connection between the imperial court and Shengui Island, and also to come out and see.

After being received by Zhou Hong, Zhao Ji really had nothing to do, and for the next period of time, under the leadership of Liu He and Fang Shiliang, he played in Yecheng.

On this day, Zhao Ji received another invitation from the Tenth Prince Zhou Ming, and after a little preparation, he arrived at the palace in the evening.

It wasn't the first time he came here, the doorman still remembered Zhao Ji, and maybe he had been ordered in advance to let Zhao Ji enter the mansion directly.

This time, a servant who led the way for Zhao Ji took him outside the martial arts arena in the palace. Zhao Ji went in alone and saw a rather unexpected scene.

In the huge martial arts arena, hundreds of people stood quietly, wearing armor, a heavy and solemn atmosphere naturally exuded.

After roughly clicking, Zhao Ji can recognize that there should be 300 people in the team of hundreds of people, and the team is neat and uniform, but it seems to be one person.

"Brother Zhao, you're here."

As soon as he entered the martial arts arena, a person greeted him, nodded heavily to Zhao Ji, and said in a deep voice.

Zhao Ji nodded his head as a salute, and said slightly surprised: "Brother Liu, are you here too?"

Liu Or said softly: "Not only I'm here, Brother Fang is also here."

No need for Liu or more to say, Zhao Ji also knew that Zhou Ming and Fang Shiliang were coming hand in hand, and greeted them with solemn expressions.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Fang."

Zhao Ji greeted him naturally.

"Brother Zhao."

"Hi Brother Zhao."

The two also greeted Zhao Ji.

"Brother Zhao, General Liu, Bachelor Fang, I think you must be wondering why I invited you here."

Looking across Zhao Ji, Liu You and Fang Shiliang, Zhou Ming smiled.

Zhao Ji nodded straightly, and said unabashedly: "Yes, I am a little doubtful, Brother Zhou, is there any battle going to happen in this kind of formation?"

Three hundred elite soldiers were neatly lined up there, with spears in their hands like a forest, pointing at the sky together, and in the solemn atmosphere, a sense of killing and attack emerged spontaneously.

Zhao Ji's doubts were also the doubts in Liu He and Fang Shiliang's hearts. The three of them turned their gazes to Zhou Ming together, with expressions of doubt and expectation on their faces.

"Three, a few days ago, some clues have been found about the assassination against the three that happened at the pier. Today, I invite you to come over and take a look together."

Zhou Ming said it directly.

"What?! It's great to have found the group of grandchildren, Your Highness, what are you waiting for, let's kill them quickly and give those guys a good look."

Hearing this, Liu Or was first surprised, then overjoyed, and said with gritted teeth.

Fang Shiliang was also very happy when he heard Zhou Ming's words, but he still maintained a certain amount of restraint, squinting his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, General Liu is right. How dare those people dare to be on Jiangdong Island?" Assassinating an official ordered by the imperial court clearly did not take the imperial court into consideration, and such unstable factors must be strangled."

"However, Your Highness, I would like to ask, which faction does that group of people belong to, or who are they?"

Nodding to Liu He and Fang Shiliang, Zhou Ming didn't answer immediately, but instead turned his gaze to Zhao Ji, and said a little strangely: "Brother Zhao, I don't think you seem to care much about this matter."

When Zhou Ming said this, Fang Shiliang and Liu Or also realized that something was wrong. Zhao Ji acted too calmly, a bit like watching from the sidelines, and didn't care at all.

Zhao Ji smiled lightly: "It's not that I don't care, but that in Jiangdong Island and Yecheng, you are the landlords. If there is anything, you should be the main ones. It's really hard for me to show too much concern. Isn't that a little bit Not quite right."

"Hahaha, Brother Zhao, you're being polite. It's about Brother Zhao. Even if you care a little bit, it's hard for others to say anything."

Zhou Ming laughed and said disapprovingly.

Zhao Ji nodded: "Okay, brother Zhou is right, I also want to ask, what is the origin of that group of unscrupulous people."

"That's right, Your Highness, don't be a fool, just tell me what you want."

Liu or was so anxious that he hurriedly urged.

"According to the information I found, that may be someone from the Taipingdao. Recently, the Taipingdao and the Blood Demon Sect seem to have hooked up. The two sides are in contact and testing. Therefore, a series of things have happened."

Without further delay, Zhou Mingjie said: "Recently, there have been news from all over the place that some mysterious forces have caused all kinds of troubles, causing all sorts of disturbances in the country, as if a great chaos is about to come."

"Oh, it's the Taiping Dao and the Blood Demon Sect. How could these two restless forces get mixed up? It's really a big deal."

Fang Shiliang frowned, looking worried.

The Blood Demon Sect is an extremely radical and extreme sect. It is powerful, but it has always been difficult to deal with Wu Guo, and there will always be all kinds of troubles.

Regarding the Blood Demon Sect, the Wu Kingdom has long been dissatisfied to the extreme, but there is nothing they can do about it. Even the common people of the Wu Kingdom are extremely dissatisfied with the Blood Demon Sect.

For the Blood Demon Sect, Zhao Ji has some understanding and had some contacts earlier, and knows that some people in the Blood Demon Sect are indeed extreme, but some people are not impossible to communicate with.

Zhao Ji was not surprised that the Blood Demon Sect could do such a thing, but the Taipingdao organization gave him a sense of familiarity and strangeness.
