Wuxia: Ning Zhongze, who became a disciple of Mount Hua, is shrouded in blue silver.

Murong Fu is now completely relying on Zhao Qing.

It's risky, but following Zhao Qing will definitely not be a loss.

Zhao Qing is highly skilled in martial arts and has the support of the Prince of Ruyang's mansion and the Mongol Yuan Dynasty.

It won't be easy for martial arts practitioners to get rid of Zhao Qing.

Even if Murong Fu led all the experts to fight Zhao Qing, his fame would certainly soar if he won.

Losing would offend Zhao Qing, a formidable enemy, and could even cost him his life.

Conversely, following Zhao Qing means you can't lose.

If Zhao Qing wins, his strength and position will be more secure.

It is a fact that Zhao Qingruo lent Zhao Qing an army of 100,000.

With the addition of 100,000 elite troops, Murong Fu's strength immediately increased significantly.

If Zhao Qing is defeated, Murong Fu will use the Crimson Fire Divine Skill to refine Zhao Qing's body.

Zhao Qing's lifelong cultivation will all belong to Murong Fu, and his martial arts will improve by leaps and bounds!

As for the price to pay, all it takes is to hand over a woman.

This woman was worthless to Murong Fu.

Trading a woman for an army of 100,000, or even for unparalleled martial arts skills, is a very worthwhile deal.

The Crimson Fire Divine Skill is now very famous, and Murong Fu immediately began practicing it.

His talent was indeed very high, and he cultivated to the third level in a very short time.

Of course, it's very difficult to continue improving.

The Crimson Fire Divine Skill becomes increasingly difficult to cultivate as you progress.

……

The Great Ming Dynasty, Xiuyu Valley, Yihua Palace.

The magnificent hall was deserted and unusually quiet.

Stepping into the main hall, a biting chill swept over you, and the entire space was lifeless.

Hua Wuque and Jiang Xiaoyu walked together into the depths of the main hall.

Yaoyue sat on the throne, not angry, but exuding an imposing aura.

I knew they were coming.

Hua Wuque brought Jiang Xiaoyu to the Yihua Palace with ulterior motives.

Inviting the Moon coldly asked, "Wuque, your aunt ordered you to kill Jiang Xiaoyu, yet you brought him to the Yihua Palace. Why?"

Hua Wuque immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times to Yaoyue before saying, "Aunt, I know everything, but I would like to ask you to confirm it in person."

"Please tell me, is Jiang Xiaoyu really my biological brother?"

Following Zhao Qing's clue, Hua Wuque found Jiang Biehe.

Jiang Biehe is Jiang Qin, the pageboy who betrayed Jiang Feng back then.

His martial arts skills are very strong, and he is fully worthy of the title of the fourth genius on the Innate Ranking.

If Hua Wuque hadn't relied on the profound techniques of the Yihua Palace martial arts, the outcome would have been uncertain.

After his battle with Jiang Biehe, Hua Wuque has basically confirmed his background, and now all that remains is for the final truth to be revealed.

During this time, he and Jiang Xiaoyu went into seclusion to cultivate.

Both of them improved their martial arts skills.

Jiang Xiaoyu cultivated the Five Ultimate Divine Skills and quickly reached the peak of the Innate Realm.

Hua Wuque broke through to the seventh level of Mingyu Gong and became a grandmaster.

It was precisely because the two brothers' martial arts skills had greatly improved that they dared to confront Yaoyue.

Upon hearing this, Yaoyue's face immediately turned cold, her eyes filled with murderous intent, which was frightening.

"Who told you that?"

By asking this question, Yaoyue was essentially acknowledging Hua Wuque's words.

The truth came out, but the two brothers reacted completely differently.

Jiang Xiaoyu was overjoyed and so excited that she lost her mind.

He thought he had no family left in this life, but now he suddenly has a twin brother, which is the greatest joy for him.

Hua Wuque, however, could not be happy; his mind was in turmoil.

He couldn't accept the truth; the blow was far greater than he had imagined.

To his utter surprise, the aunt who raised him was actually his father's killer!

He was raised only to be used against his own brothers...

Hua Wuque's beliefs completely collapsed, and he was on the verge of a breakdown.

He didn't answer Yaoyue, but instead raised his head, stared at her, and said in a low voice, "These past eighteen years of mine, it was all a lie, wasn't it?"

Inviting the Moon, her voice icy, pressed again, "I'll ask you one more time, who told you that?"

Hua Wuque remained silent, feeling for the first time how distant this aunt was.

In the past, Yaoyue was indifferent and distant towards him, but he never felt like a stranger to her; on the contrary, he felt a sense of closeness to her.

Today, Yaoyue's expression, complexion, and demeanor made him feel an unprecedented sense of alienation.

At this moment, Hua Wuque finally understood his place in Yaoyue's heart.

She was merely a knife, a sharp blade that Yaoyue used to take revenge on Jiang Feng and his wife and to kill their own flesh and blood!

"You crazy woman, you're utterly deranged!"

"We won't answer your questions, so please stop asking."

Are you going to kill us two brothers now?

Jiang Xiaoyu is different from Hua Wuque; he is incredibly bold and fearless.

Facing Yaoyue, he showed no fear and directly pointed at her and cursed.

Jiang Xiaoyu was not obsessed with revenge.

He believed that punishing Jiang Biehe was revenge.

The one who truly killed their parents was Yaoyue, but Jiang Xiaoyu knew that Hua Wuque loved the Yihua Palace.

Therefore, he never mentioned revenge.

If Hua Wuque wants revenge, they'll work together; if Hua Wuque doesn't, Jiang Xiaoyu won't say another word.

Jiang Xiaoyu grew up in the Valley of Villains and calls himself a villain, but he is kind at heart.

Hua Wuque stood up and looked directly at Yaoyue.

This was the first time in eighteen years that he dared to look directly at the elder who had raised him.

He forcefully plunged his sword into the marble floor and said to Yaoyue, "Aunt, I don't want to investigate the truth about your feud with our parents anymore."

"You raised me for eighteen years. Regardless of the reason, I will always remember this kindness."

"Without you, I would have died long ago. You want my life? I'll give it to you."

"I only hope my life can settle old scores; please, spare Xiaoyuer!"

After saying this, Hua Wuque closed his eyes, preparing to die.

"Hahaha, hahaha!"

Yaoyue suddenly burst into laughter.

The laughter was insane, like someone had gone mad.

Hua Wuque hadn't expected Yaoyue to be so crazy.

Inviting the Moon sneered, her tone icy: "Wuque, do you really think your life is that important to me?"

"You're too naive. You can't possibly understand the humiliation and hurt Jiang Feng and Hua Yuenü caused me back then!"

"Your life isn't enough to repay the hatred I've harbored for so many years!"

A fierce glint flashed in her eyes: "You want Jiang Xiaoyu to live? I'll make sure he dies, so you can see!"

Yaoyue immediately made her move, striking Jiang Xiaoyu with a palm.

"boom!"

His palm strikes were fierce, and his aura was overwhelming.

Hua Wuque immediately stood in front of Jiang Xiaoyu and used the "Transferring Flowers and Jade Technique" to deflect the palm strike.

However, there are limits to grafting.

Yaoyue's internal strength was even greater, and Hua Wuque was unable to completely block the attack.

The remaining palm strike was still very powerful, sending Hua Wuque flying and causing him to cough up blood and retreat.

Jiang Xiaoyu caught him; otherwise, he would have been seriously injured.

Hua Wuque's pupils contracted sharply, and he whispered, "Mingyu Technique... Ninth level..."

He never imagined that Yaoyue's martial arts skills had reached the ninth level!

The ninth level of Mingyu Gong is the highest realm, and only the founder of the Yihua Palace has ever reached it.

No one has reached that level since!

Hua Wuque had reached the seventh level of the skill and thought that he and Jiang Xiaoyu could defeat Yaoyue together.

But he never expected that Yaoyue would reach the ninth level and become a Grandmaster!

Yaoyue is now so strong that it's despair-inducing. She slowly walked down from the high platform, her beautiful face turning terrifying.

Jiang Xiaoyu shielded Hua Wuque behind her and said urgently, "Brother, Yaoyue wants to kill me. You go first, I'll stay. She won't hurt you!"

"No, I won't leave alone. I'll regret it for the rest of my life if you die."
