Chapter 17: Visitors from the Holy Society
In the library, Su Chen was practicing a set of boxing techniques, testing his current level in the bone and muscle realm.
boom!
As strong as steel, Su Chen's muscles were tied together, and billowing waves of air burst out, blowing up the black eunuch robe on his body.
Su Chen did not wear the red robe for the general manager of the library bestowed by Emperor Jianwu. Instead, he even took off his green eunuch robe and hung it high.
The World Martial Arts Ranking, with its fame and status, secretly instigates the major martial arts sects, and even the top masters to make enemies and fight with each other. This is no trivial matter and will inevitably lead to fatal disasters.
But Su Chen did not regret it.
Because he also didn't like these first-rank masters, who acted as if they were in their own home in this palace, and from time to time a first-rank master would show up and cause trouble in the palace.
It is better to stabilize the imperial power.
after all.
He will live in this palace for a long time.
"If it doesn't work, I can fake my death, escape, change my identity, and then come back to this palace..."
"Anyway, I haven't been out of the library for a long time, and not many people know me."
Su Chen was thinking.
The set of boxing techniques he practiced finally came to an end.
boom!
The air waves danced wildly, causing nine thunders.
"good."
"Nine thunderous noises?"
"I'm only in the early stage of the tendon and bone realm, am I almost catching up with the ordinary tendon and bone realm perfection?"
Su Chen put his fist away and stood up.
Inside the courtyard, the stirring smoke and dust gradually subsided.
Su Chen learned this set of boxing techniques from Daliang Wu Pavilion. It is a method of strengthening the muscles and bones, and is called Benlei Ao Ti.
In the Muscle and Bones Realm, by using this method, one can refine the muscles and bones to the extreme, then one can explode with ten layers of thunder sounds and enter the third level of marrow cleansing...
As for those with outstanding talents, the limit is naturally more than ten levels of Thunder Sound.
According to the records of this method, the founding ancestor of Daliang was the highest record-holder among martial arts prodigies. He exploded with 71 thunder sounds and finally reached his limit. He killed an invading master at the peak of the third-grade marrow cleansing realm with one punch and finally entered the third-grade realm.
In the ordinary muscle and bone realm, the limit is the ninth level of thunder.
Su Chen had just opened his muscles and bones, and had not yet been refined, but he was able to explode with nine levels of thunder. This showed that he had an extraordinary talent, unprecedented in talent.
"Even the founder of Daliang was not as special as me..."
“I don’t know how far I can go in this realm of tendons and bones. The seventy-first level of Thunder Sound is known in the history books of Daliang as a person with unique talent and a genius.”
“I wonder if I can surpass…”
A long time passed again.
The breath calmed down.
Su Chen then sat back at the stone table in the yard, picked up some fine coal with chopsticks, and slowly burned tea and boiled water. A small white jade bottle quietly appeared under his sleeve.
"Since you are here, why hide your head and show your tail? If you want to investigate something, just show up."
"Maybe I can answer whatever you ask truthfully."
Su Chen suddenly spoke.
The scene was silent and motionless.
It was as if Su Chen was just talking nonsense to himself.
"If this continues, I'll have to send out the signal arrow."
"By the time……"
As he said that, Su Chen was about to take something out of his arms.
next moment.
A figure quickly rushed in from the wall of the library.
She was dressed in a red dress as bright as fire, her eyes were like deep pools, her eyebrows were sharp like swords, and her temperament was cold. She looked at him and spoke slowly.
"Su Chen, it's me."
The person who came was Zhang Gui.
But Su Chen sneered, and he clenched the bottle of Heart-Eating Powder in his sleeve instantly. With his other hand, he took out the arrow from his arms and pretended to throw it directly into the fire.
Once it burns and rises into the sky, even Emperor Jianwu would be alarmed.
Because this is the highest level warning arrow, only the chief eunuch of the palace can hold it. Su Chen is the sixth red-robed chief eunuch of the library appointed by Emperor Jianwu himself, so naturally he is also qualified to hold one.
"Don't even pretend to be like that."
"Zhang Gui never puts on airs in front of me, let alone act like you do."
Su Chen sneered.
"You scoundrel, either get out of here or tear off the human skin mask on your face and show your true face before you talk about other things."
"Hmm?" The arrow was only an inch away from the stove.
Once ignited.
When the Prince of Zhenbei broke into the palace before, the turmoil had not yet subsided. This time, an assassin has entered the palace. God knows what the enraged Emperor Jianwu will do.
"Damn it."
"Zhang Gui" cursed and hesitated for a long time, but still did not retreat. Instead, he tore off the human skin mask on his face, revealing a pale face that was three parts elegant and seven parts feminine.
The voice also changed from Zhang Gui's lonely and cold voice at the beginning to a sharp and hoarse voice.
This is a eunuch!
"not good!"
Su Chen felt something was wrong and was about to throw the signal arrow into the fire.
as predicted.
The next second, his guess became reality.
"Huang Jiu!"
"When I heard that you were one of us, I was really shocked. Haha, the sworn brother of Zhang Gui, the powerful East Factory Master, turned out to be the lowest of our 19 secret spies in the Black Abyss..."
"hehe."
"Our Xuan Er is polite."
"Everyone in the palace said that there was a useless man in the library who was lucky enough to save the life of Eunuch Zhang Gui, and that's how he became the sworn brother of the famous East Factory Master. In my opinion, Eunuch Su is the real hidden master..."
"Although I am a third-rank master, I have already mastered the Shadowless Technique to perfection. Even a second-rank master would have difficulty detecting my whereabouts. But as soon as I approached, Eunuch Su revealed my whereabouts, haha."
The feminine eunuch smiled with a fake smile, and it was obvious that he had already learned from the Black Lotus Saint that Huang Jiu and Su Chen were suspected of defecting.
If anyone else had defected, they would have been wiped out long ago.
Only Su Chen, who hid in the deep palace and did not go out, and had Zhang Gui's care, could survive until now.
"Grand Chamberlain, Eunuch Wuchen, I don't understand what you are doing."
"What Xuan Er Huang Jiu? I am Su Chen!"
Su Chen also had a fake smile on his face.
He put the signal arrow into his arms.
Eunuch Wu Chen is at the peak of the third level of Ning Gang Realm and assists a chief eunuch in charge of the secret guards of the palace for the emperor. He is in a high position and has great power. He basically does not walk around the palace and is deeply trusted by the old emperor. No one would have expected that he would be a hidden pawn of Hei Yuan, and he is only at the Xuan level, not even Xuan Yi. It is really incredible.
Shadowless Technique?
Su Chen had heard of an extremely mysterious and difficult method to practice.
In terms of cultivation, he naturally couldn't see through it.
But he could clearly see the glaring sign that Wu Chen's lifespan was about to run out.
How could he not notice it running towards him so clearly?
"It's a slip of the tongue."
"hehe."
"Eunuch Su, I have revealed my identity and am here to take something from you, Eunuch Su, at the order of the Holy One."
"After you killed Eunuch Xu, the Black Envoy, Huang Yi, did his daughter come to seek revenge against you? If so, please return all her belongings, even her bones!"
Wu Chen stared at Su Chen with his narrow eyes, but at the end, his tone became heavier, and a surge of strong energy surged in his body, and he actually wanted to attack Su Chen.
The daughter of Eunuch Xu, the black-robed eunuch, is Huang Yi.
Su Chen thought for a while and then he remembered that on the night when the prince rebelled and the palace changed, this person did take advantage of the chaos to kill him.
He was only at the fourth level of Violent Qi Realm, and was killed with just one leaf by him when he was at the fifth level of the initial stage of Flesh and Blood. He was not a powerful character, so he was not searched and was hastily buried.
After all this time, I found out that this guy has something good.
Su Chen's eyes lit up.
"presumptuous!"
"You dare to peek at the things of the Holy Church?"
Wu Chen was extremely angry.
"Hand it over!"
At this moment, the terrifying aura ravaged the entire courtyard. Countless flowers and plants were crushed by the dust-free aura, and the already strong strange phenomenon in the courtyard became more than ten times stronger in an instant.
"So what if I don't hand it over?"
Looking at the crushed poisonous flowers and plants, Su Chen felt pity for them.
"Don't pay?"
"hehe!"
"Then I, a peak third-rank master, would like to ask for your advice and see what dirty tricks you, a useless person from the library, used to keep the black-robed eunuch Xu here!"
After saying that, Wu Chen's robe fluttered, and a whisk flew out from his sleeve, like a sharp sword or a long whip, making a thunderous sound and going straight for Su Chen's head.
