Martial God Development Plan

Ji Zhao was speechless. He clapped his hands as if he was going to slap Gu Qu's butt. Although Gu Qu was thick-skinned, she was a woman after all. Ji Zhao deliberately slowed down his movements, so how could she not react? She was so scared that she quickly ran away: "Ji Ji Ji... Brother Ji! What are you doing!"

"What are you talking about if you want to eavesdrop on other people's conversations?" Ji Zhao said calmly, "By the way, why did you react so strongly just now? There's nothing wrong with men slapping each other on the buttocks, right? Could it be...?"

"No... It's nothing!" Gu Qu raised his voice, trying to interrupt Ji Zhao's thoughts. "It's just that this cliff is so steep. If you suddenly attack me, any normal person would hide! It's too dangerous... Anyway, if you don't want to listen, I'm leaving!"

After saying this, he left quickly.

Fu Caige said calmly: "...Junior Brother Ji, you have quite a bad taste."

"It's good that it works." Ji Zhao shrugged. Gu Qu was thick-skinned and it was really hard to deal with her if she insisted on staying. Fortunately, Ji Zhao had a killer move to deal with her. "What does Senior Sister Fu want to say?"

Fu Caige looked normal and asked, "Junior Brother Ji, what do you think of Miss Lie?"

"...?"

Ji Zhao slowly typed a question mark. He didn't have a question, but he felt that Fu Caige had a problem... This question, if you say it's sensitive, then it can't be considered particularly sensitive, but to say it's not sensitive is undoubtedly nonsense. The point is, Fu Caige didn't ask this question about his identity.

Like Ji Bei and Ji Tan, the former can feel at ease saying "an elder sister is like a mother" and then ask about Ji Zhao's relationship status, and the latter can also use her sister's identity as a shield to test the waters, but Fu Caige...why is she asking this?

Ji Zhao was silent for a long while. Although he could not be said to be eloquent, he was definitely not half-autistic like Nan Xue. But at this moment he actually didn't know what to answer. After a long time, he finally squeezed out a few words from his throat.

"...very good, she's a good girl."

"Really?" Fu Caige didn't think this was an offensive question at all. She continued to ask, "Then, who do you think is better, her or you... between her and me?"

Ji Zhao's hands and feet trembled and he almost fell down. Liu Hanying above him looked over here with a sharp gaze and even planned to help him.

"No... that." Ji Zhao was sweating profusely, and his voice was weak. "It's a bit inappropriate to say who is better. Every girl has her own advantages and disadvantages. These things can't be compared on a scale. There is no saying who is better or worse... Yes, in my opinion, they are all good girls, that's it."

"That's right..." Fu Caige nodded thoughtfully, and after a little thought, he asked again, "Well, let me ask it another way. Junior Brother Ji, what do you think is the most important thing for a partner?"

"..."

Lao Gu, I miss you, please come back soon.

Ji Zhao really hoped that Gu Qu could come down from the sky and say, "Brother Ji, I'm here again," so that the lawless Fu Caige would restrain himself... No, what did she want to do? !

Ji Zhao knew that Fu Caige was born in the Golden Sword Sect and was very spoiled since childhood. Because of her angelic beauty, she rarely had normal contact with people of her age. Therefore, her personality was similar to Ji Tan's, and there was something wrong with her... But he didn't expect that she would be so wrong? !

Fortunately, Ji Zhao was not an idiot like Gu Qu. His mind raced and he used Dou Zhuan Xing Yi. He smiled and said, "This is a really thought-provoking question. I can't think of what is the most important thing at the moment... I wonder what Senior Sister Fu thinks?"

Fu Caige said: "I think the most important thing is compatibility."

"Compatibility?" Ji Zhao didn't expect Fu Caige to give an answer so quickly. "Well... indeed, compatibility is very important. If there is no compatibility, even if the family background and status are very similar, and people praise them as a perfect match, in the end it will only lead to a tragedy of being incompatible in spirit."

"That's right." Fu Caige paused for a moment, then suddenly showed his sharp knife, "Then, Junior Brother Ji, who do you think is the person who is most compatible with you?"

Fu Caige didn't know what medicine he had taken wrong, but his desire to attack was so strong that with just a few words, he pushed Ji Zhao to the edge of the cliff again.

Perhaps he felt that what he said was a bit too much, Fu Caige said: "We are just talking about compatibility, not the most suitable partner. Junior Brother Ji, you don't have to worry about anything, just speak your mind."

Volume 5: Escape 1: Chapter 66: Some people are alive, she is already dead

Ji Zhao had no intention of answering Fu Caige's question honestly, as the other party's question was inexplicable...or rather, his whole attitude was weird.

Therefore, Ji Zhao perfunctorily said: "It's hard to say. The most difficult thing for people to understand is often their own heart..."

When Ji Zhao said this, Ji Tan suddenly possessed him, and he started to have a bad taste in his mouth, so he said with a smile: "Sister Fu, you may not feel anything like that. Then let me ask you a question. Between father and mother, which one do you like better?"

Fu Caige was silent for a while, then tilted his head slightly: "Junior Brother Ji...you didn't have good intentions when you asked this question."

"Have it?"

"Have."

"Where's the evidence?"

"Junior Brother Ji, when you asked me for evidence, you had already exposed your ill intentions. You should deny it at this time."

"hehe......"

Ji Zhao thought that the topic was over, but he didn't expect Fu Caige to still not give up. She said calmly, "Junior Brother Ji, what you said makes sense... We often can't see our own hearts clearly, but outsiders may see it very clearly...Junior Brother Ji, do you want to know, in my eyes, the person who has the highest affinity with you?"

Ji Zhao shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Senior Sister Fu, but it's not necessary."

"Really?" Fu Caige showed no regrets. "I am a little disappointed, but it doesn't matter, because I believe that you will understand it sooner or later, Junior Brother Ji."

"...Master Qiu, you are truly guilty of a heinous crime."

------

After entering Wangzhou, there were obviously more martial artists encountered, and transportation became much more convenient. At least the main means of transportation changed from feet to boats. These days, the water is not very peaceful. However, there are really no people who dare to block the road to Taixuan City - even if they dared to do so at other times, they don't dare to do so now.

Are you kidding? All the people who came to Taixuan City now want to become the leader of the martial arts world. How is robbing them different from digging up national defense cables and selling them as scrap?

Therefore, after reaching this section of the road, Gu Qu finally had some free time... For her, one of her body and mouth must always be moving, and now her body was free.

"I say, Brother Ji... Do you think Master Mo's feet would stink if he wore those airtight boots every day?"

One afternoon, Gu Qu lazily lay on the table and casually brought up a topic... However, she seemed to have a wonderful talent of 'being caught on the spot when saying bad things about others'. As soon as she finished speaking, Ji Zhao saw the door behind her being pushed open silently, and Mo Yu standing there. With Gu Qu's cultivation level, she should have discovered it, but she had eaten too much at lunch and was drowsy now. At the moment, they were on the boat, and under the bumps, her perception ability was not as good as before, so she did not notice it.

Ji Zhao drank a sip of tea calmly, trying to save Gu Qu's life.

"The weather is not very good today."

"The weather is bad... but aren't we talking about Master Mo's feet?" Gu Qu stroked his chin, looking like Conan possessed, and said with a smile, "Brother Ji, think about it, Master Mo exercises so much every day, and his boots are not breathable. After a day... hehe, do you believe it?"

Ji Zhao looked at Gu Qu without saying anything, but just shook his head heavily and slowly.

"Don't disbelieve me!" Gu Qu was intrigued for some reason. "Why don't we go ask Senior Sister Fu? She lives with Master Mo, she must know... Humph! Master Mo always acts pure and innocent, and he's so high and mighty. Now I can finally catch him!"

"No..." Ji Zhao still wanted to save the child's life, so he held his forehead and said, "Think about it from common sense... At the beginning, in the first 'Luohe Pavilion's Most Popular Master Voting', Master Qiu had already tried every means to win. She kicked the Pavilion Master out for not teaching enough classes, and then severely criticized Master Yun for being lazy. But in the end, she still lost to Master Mo by a large margin. If Master Mo really... did that, Master Qiu might have hinted at it overtly or covertly. For example, a master asked me to buy medicine for that, and they live together, how could she not notice it... What do you think?"

"That makes sense." Han Gongqiu's unscrupulousness was widely acknowledged, but Gu Qu was a very capable person, so he came up with a solution after a little thought, "I understand! It's because Master Mo goes to the bathhouse to take a bath every day before returning to the dormitory!"

Mo Yu behind him crossed his arms and had a blank expression on his face.

Ji Zhao was sweating profusely. He laughed awkwardly, "No, no, no... Guqu, think about it again. Master Mo, like the Pavilion Master, practiced the Taiyin True Art. This art is extremely cold and yin-attributed. For Yin-attributed arts, practitioners usually sweat very little, not to mention the most yin of yins like the Taiyin True Art. With Master Mo's level of cultivation, I'm afraid he doesn't even sweat. How could... that be?"

Gu Qu was repeatedly denied, and she couldn't help but feel a little angry. She was scolded by Mo Yu all day long, and now she just wanted to find a trivial flaw in Mo Yu. Unexpectedly, Ji Zhao didn't help her at all. She immediately said in a muffled voice: "You only know how to speak for Master Mo. You two are the best in the world, okay? Humph, sooner or later I will expose Master Mo's true face. Anyway, I will sneak into Master Mo's room and take a look... Yeah?!"

Before Gu Qu finished her words, Mo Yu reached out and put her hand on her shoulder.

At this moment, Guqu’s heart was beating faster than the inflation rate of the Zimbabwean dollar - but it didn’t matter, it would stop soon.

"You care about this very much." Mo Yu's cold, emotionless voice rang in Gu Qu's ears. She exerted a little force with her fingers, causing Gu Qu's shoulders to creak. "Let's go... I'll let you know the answer."

"No...don't do it!" Gu Qu struggled, crying in panic, "I was wrong! Master Mo, I was wrong! Your feet don't stink, they are the most fragrant! Don't do it!"

However, her struggle was useless. The black jade with a scarlet cross flashing in its eyes was like a monster in a horror movie. It dragged Gu Qu away bit by bit, leaving ten deep grooves on the ground with its fingers.

At the last moment, Gu Qu made a desperate voice: “Brother Ji, save me!”

Ji Zhao shook his head: "People are always ungrateful for being alive."

Soon, the mournful sound of ancient music was heard. Ji Zhaozhu pretended to ignore it and went to the deck immediately. When he looked up, he could vaguely see a majestic city in the distance.

Taixuan City is just around the corner.

Volume 5: Escape from the Realm: Chapter 67: Leave it to God

In Taixuan City, in a dim room, orange-red flames were dancing, and a small knife was placed horizontally above, being burned by the flames... The hand of the person holding the knife was shaking a little, causing the knife to tremble as well.

After a moment, the knife was burned red. In the dim light, the man whose face could not be seen clearly grabbed a piece of cloth and stuffed it into his mouth.

After a dozen short yet long breaths, several pieces of meat were cut off. The man moved quickly, smeared the herbs that had been prepared long ago on the wound, and then wrapped it with gauze... After doing all this, he took out the cloth with trembling hands. The inside was already stained with blood, and two of his rotten and necrotic teeth were stuck in it.

【“…”】

The man was silent. He stood up, walked out of the room, and looked up at the dark night sky.

He knew in his heart that he only had one last chance, or maybe even no chance at all...The King of Thieves, Xiaoyao Feng, who in this world could have guessed that this person was actually the successor of Zhitian Pavilion, and of such a high seniority.

But how should we use this opportunity?

The man was at a loss... He didn't have any useful men under his command, and he couldn't get any intelligence. The entire map was black, and he had no idea where Ji Zhao was or what he was doing.

At present, the most direct way is of course to attack Luohe Pavilion and wait for an opportunity... But the Luohe Pavilion ruled by Liu Hanying and Xiaoyaofeng can probably be penetrated by personal force only the phoenix in the north.

[“Oh my God… I don’t have any more strength left. I no longer have the ability to plot anything under Xiaoyao Feng’s nose. No one believes me. If you really want me to accomplish this great feat… please send him to me. I will burn everything I have…”]

He made a wish sincerely. The physical suffering and the misunderstanding of his spirit and will almost completely destroyed this man of steel. The long-term soul-possession also made him always confused and crazy. He also lost the ability to plan and layout... There was nothing he could rely on. Except for the ethereal will of heaven that had given him instructions, he no longer had anyone or anything worthy of trust and support.

In the end, I choose to entrust everything to the will of heaven... Just like those people who have suffered a lot, even if they know in their hearts that it is probably false, there is no other place to entrust their souls.

--------

After entering Taixuan City, the number of martial artists was visibly large, and each of them was carrying a sword, wearing a hat and a cloak.

The martial arts conference is considered the most important event in the martial arts world.

Generally speaking, martial artists usually have a casual personality. When practicing martial arts, their meridians will be forcibly stimulated by the internal energy, and they will more or less go crazy. Even someone with a personality like Ji Zhao will jump off a cliff with Gu Zhibai on a whim, not to mention others.

Therefore, most martial artists hate being bound by rules, let alone electing a martial arts alliance to manage everyone. However, now that the country is in danger, some things really have to be done, otherwise the battle on the front line will not be over, and the civil strife behind will collapse directly. Thousands of years later, these so-called "leaders of the righteous path" will be nailed to the pillar of shame and criticized by future generations.

"Oh...long time no see. It seems we are destined to meet, Ji Zhao."

Ji Zhao and his companions had not been in the city for long. They were strolling on the street when they saw an acquaintance coming towards them. The man was wearing a loose Taoist robe, with his back slightly hunched. He looked as if he would be punished to copy Taoist scriptures if his teacher saw him. Who else could it be but Han Shou?

"I had a feeling before I came here." Ji Zhao took a few steps forward and smiled faintly, "I will definitely meet my few acquaintances in Taixuan City... because you all like to run around and join in the fun."

"Your intuition has always been accurate." Han Shou came over, "I knew this a long time ago."

As he spoke, he glanced at the people behind Ji Zhao, and seeing that everyone except Liu Hanying looked exhausted, he guessed that Ji Zhao and his companions had just entered the city. He didn't ask them "Do you want to have a few drinks?" and left after saying hello to Ji Zhao.

"...slippery-talker, unruly." Mo Yu said succinctly, "Zhenwu Mountain actually has such a disciple, and brought him out."

She actually wanted to tell Ji Zhao to have less contact with such scoundrels in the future, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that it was a bit too much. Besides, it was not Mo Yu's character to judge a person's character so hastily, so she swallowed the thought back.

As for the saying "bring them out", it is easy to understand. For the martial arts conference, each family will definitely bring their core disciples out, whether it is to make friends, gain experience, or just bring them out for a walk, anyway, it is not a bad idea to bring them out for everyone to know. After all, information flow is inconvenient these days, and not every family's seeded player is a super street slicker like Xiu Yiyin. For example, Luohe Pavilion originally planned to bring Ji Gunan, the f3, after all, these three have the highest talent and are considered Luohe Pavilion's seeded players. It's just that Nan Xue didn't want to come, so she replaced him with Fu Caige.

Similarly, since Han Shou was brought to Taixuan City, from a certain perspective, he has actually secured his status as a 'reserve star player'.

"Heh... He's always like this."

Ji Zhao believed that a person's reaction before death could best reflect his inner self. Therefore, he had some extra favorability towards Han Shou, whose death was to his liking.

The five of them found a place to wash up, then took the invitations and gifts and went to visit the organizer of this martial arts conference, the Nie family, also known as the Canggu family.

This is one of the three greatest families, the family passed down by Nie Yihen, the master of the Canggu sword... It is worth mentioning that Nie Yihen suffered a heartbroken experience in his early years. It is said that he had white hair, a dead heart, and a spirit like a dead tree. He did not leave any descendants in his entire life. This Canggu family, to be precise, was started by some of Nie Yihen's relatives after they inherited Nie Yihen's legacy. Although there had been such a family before, before Nie Yihen appeared, it was just a third-rate small family, and there was no way it could be qualified to be called a martial arts family.

It can only be said that this group of people with the surname Nie are also very capable. For example, the descendants of Emperor Wu Jueming and Duke Wu'an Weihuo have appeared every once in a while over the years, and then died in confusion. It can be said that both their bloodline and inheritance have long been cut off. Among the three supreme masters, only Nie Yihen's inheritance has been preserved intact.

Moreover, the power of the Canggu family can be seen from the fact that it is qualified to host the martial arts conference. Not everyone can be the host.

PS I have a bad cough and am not in good condition, so there is only one chapter today

Volume 5: Escape 1: Chapter 68: Determination

Liu Hanying is undoubtedly a famous figure. Before he took over Luohe Pavilion, Luohe Pavilion was almost destroyed by the counterattacking Demon Cult. After he took over, he recruited several powerful masters, including the legendary Thief Saint, not to mention the legendary nature of his own deeds. It can be said that he has truly rebuilt the glory of Luohe Pavilion. Considering the top military force alone, the current Luohe Pavilion is even second only to the Wei Huo period when Luohe was first founded.

Faced with such a person, the Nie family did not act arrogantly. Although the eldest son Nie Canghai was busy with affairs, he still took time out to personally receive Liu Hanying.

Nie Canghai is about 40 or 50 years old, with a beard and a sturdy build. He walks with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, showing a soul-stirring sense of power... There is no doubt that he is a master in his prime. Only such a master in his prime can support such a big family. It can be said that the reason why the Canggu family is willing to spend so much manpower, material resources and financial resources to hold the martial arts conference is definitely because they want Nie Canghai to become the leader of the martial arts world.

Judging from his strength, status, reputation, age and even personality, this person is indeed a suitable candidate. The other qualified contenders are either lacking in one aspect or another.

For example, the real person on Zhenwu Mountain, in terms of strength, should be regarded as the number one martial artist in the Yan State today. Looking around the world, he is probably only inferior to the phoenix. So, is he suitable to be the leader of the martial arts world?

Obviously not suitable... In terms of age, he is too old, and his energy is definitely not as good as that of young people. He may not be able to handle various affairs well. Moreover, to be the leader of the martial arts world, he has to coordinate the forces of all parties in the world. A Taoist who has been practicing for a long time, to put it bluntly, can he name a few newcomers in the martial arts world in recent decades? How can he handle these affairs if he doesn't even know them?

For example, Liu Hanying, as the leader of Luohe Pavilion, inherits the name of Wu'an Duke Weihuo. He is naturally superior to others in terms of status. However, he is a little too young and not very convincing. Moreover, he has some flaws in his character... In short, he is more or less inappropriate.

After some polite words, Ji Zhao and others were assigned to a spacious and bright courtyard. Perhaps it was because of Liu Hanying's reputation, but even disciples such as Ji Zhao and Fu Caige were given a bedroom each. However, some small sects had to let their leaders and disciples live in one room.

The news of Liu Hanying's arrival swept through Taixuan City like a whirlwind, so much so that at night, someone knocked on Ji Zhao's door... It was a warrior from the Yishan School, and he came with the Tianguan Rumeng Order as agreed upon.

As the Sword Master of Yishan and the future Master of the Blood Lotus Sword, Xiu Yiyin would certainly not talk nonsense. The people of Yishan Sect were very happy, so Ji Zhao naturally did not waste any time and accepted the spoils that he deserved.

[“After the martial arts conference is over, let’s go to Tianguan… However, if the Dong Taoist escapes and is left alone…”]

This idea has a bit of a groundless pessimism taste. The world is so big, how can you just run into someone you don't like? But after going through several hardships, Ji Zhao has clearly felt the world's undisguised malice towards him.

[“I always feel like it will come to me no matter what…”]

Rather than calling it fate or destiny, it is better to say that it is the embodiment of the world's malice. The counterpart of the Child of Destiny is a person hated by the world.

Ji Zhao didn’t know whether there was consciousness in this world, but many games had similar settings... maybe after dealing with the Dong Taoists, an organization like the Holy Temple would emerge.

However, that was just Ji Zhao's guess. These messy things might not exist. Even if they did, it would certainly not be like the Dong Taoist who could comprehend his essence. As an ancient person, could he have a specific understanding of the four words "destroy the world"? Obviously, it was unlikely.

If it were a different era, and a powerful person said someone wanted to destroy the world, maybe there would be some understanding and support, such as in a fantasy story, but this is a martial arts game... But even so, Ji Zhao didn't want the Taoist to continue like this. With the help of God, who knows what kind of like-minded and life-threatening friends he would meet after he escaped from the predicament, to shatter his wish to destroy the world.

......

The next day, Ji Zhao woke up from his sleep and was putting on his clothes in a daze when there was a sudden knock on the door, followed by the excited sound of Gu Qu.

"Brother Ji, are you awake?!"
