Chapter 238: This is Gao Changsheng's purpose

Looking up, I could no longer see Yang Jian's figure, let alone his appearance.

But his slowly raised right hand was clearly visible.

A beam of light appeared out of nowhere and instantly crossed the sky and earth from north to south.

The fierce aura rolled down, as if hanging over everyone's head.

"Sword intention? Sword intention? So scary. When did Yang Jian acquire such ability?" someone exclaimed at the first moment.

The beam of light that pierced through the sky and earth like a bridge was clearly a sharp blade.

But because the light was too bright, the specific shape could not be seen clearly.

At this time, Yang Jian was also shrouded in light.

Golden light flowed out along his arm like a long dragon, while another stream of purple energy enveloped his body like mist.

The essence of the Evil Emperor's relics was poured into it by successive Evil Emperors of the Demon Sect before their death.

Those who can become the Evil Emperor of the Demon Sect are all top masters.

Pick any one of them, the essence in their bodies is incomparably huge.

Not to mention the endless years and countless generations of masters.

The amount of essence now accumulated in the relics is absolutely beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

However, the evil emperors of all generations were originally from the Demonic Sect, and their essence was also injected by forceful means before their death.

Therefore, although the essence in the relics is strong, it also carries an extremely terrifying evil intent.

At this time, the continuously surging essence surrounded Yang Jian's body, making him look extremely strange.

But at this time, obviously no one would care about Yang Jian's appearance.

Because the aura emanating from the sharp blade was truly too terrifying.

With the powerful Nine-Star Collapsing Heaven Formation as his support, Yang Jian not only drew on the nation's fortune, but also added the essence of the Evil Emperor's relics.

The combination of these terrifying forces is so powerful that even without seeing or feeling it, one can already tell how powerful they are.

"Yang Jian actually has such powerful sword and knife skills? This person is really hiding his abilities too well."

As the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty, many people naturally understand Yang Jian's situation.

Even many of the hidden people in the scene had interacted with him.

But no one knew that Yang Jian actually had such ability.

"Be careful and alert." Someone whispered.

The aura emanating from that sharp weapon that looked like a knife or a sword was truly too terrifying.

And they had no idea who Yang Jian's target was.

It felt as if the blade was hanging directly above their heads.

And each of them is a lamb to be slaughtered.

"No, not a knife, not a sword."

A whispering sound was heard.

The shrinking pupils on his face showed his shock.

"Your Majesty... Sir?"

A worried voice was heard from the side; it was Li Jinglong.

And the person who spoke was undoubtedly Zhu Houzhao.

"How is it possible? How could Yang Jian possess this skill?"

Zhu Houzhao ignored Li Jinglong and just kept muttering to himself.

"Could it be Gao Changsheng?"

Zhu Houzhao raised his head suddenly: "Could this be the purpose of his entering the Ming Dynasty that time?"

"But how did he get it? How is this possible?"

Zhu Houzhao stared at the sky.

"Young Master, what happened? Do you know Yang Jian's swordsmanship at this time?" Li Jinglong spoke again.

"That's right." Zhu Houzhao let out a long breath.

"But that's not a knife, nor a sword, but..."

Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes and slowly uttered two words: "Guillotine!"

"Guillotine?" Li Jinglong was confused.

Zhu Houzhao shook his head:
"It doesn't matter what it is. It's just the appearance that manifests itself. It can be a guillotine, or a sword, a spear, or a cudgel. The key is this technique."

"What exactly is this?"

"Liu Bowen!" Zhu Houzhao uttered three words in a low voice.

"Liu Bowen, Earl of Sincerity." Li Jinglong muttered instinctively, and then his eyes suddenly widened:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, what you said Yang Jian used was Liu Bowen's Dragon Vein Slashing Technique..."

"This, how is this possible?"

Li Jinglong exclaimed:
"Once upon a time, Marquis Chengyi followed Taizu's orders and cut off the dragon vein."

"But his purpose, itinerary, and methods are all top secrets of the Ming Dynasty. How could the Sui Dynasty get them?"

Zhu Houzhao's face was also somewhat gloomy:
"Yes, I am also curious about how Gao Changsheng did it."

"This is a top secret of the Ming Dynasty, a top secret of the royal family."

"Could it be the Iron-Hearted Divine Marquis Zhu Wusi?" Li Jinglong asked with a frown.

Although he had just been released by his father, he had some understanding of the current situation in the Ming Dynasty.

In the eyes of many people, Zhu Wusi is a loyal and brave god.

But anyone with a discerning eye is actually very clear about his purpose.

So when Zhu Houzhao mentioned this matter, Li Jinglong immediately made a guess.

"Zhu Wushi, impossible!"

"He is a bastard of low status, and he is not capable of such top-secret information."

"Liu Bowen's situation is top secret, and only emperors of past dynasties are qualified to know it." Zhu Houzhao said.

"This..." Li Jinglong was stunned.

Of course he did not doubt what Zhu Houzhao said.

But since only the Ming emperors of all dynasties could know about it, how did Yang Jian of the Sui Dynasty get it?
Even if, as Zhu Houzhao guessed, Gao Changsheng obtained it after entering the Ming Dynasty, where did he get it from?

"Gao Changsheng, Gao Changsheng."

Zhu Houzhao narrowed his eyes, and everything about Gao Changsheng in the Ming Dynasty kept flashing through his mind.

Soon, a fragment flashed through his mind.

His eyes suddenly opened and two rays of light shot out.

"The King of Light on the top of Guangming Peak!"

Zhu Houzhao spoke in a cold voice.

"King Ming?" Li Jinglong was full of confusion.

But Zhu Houzhao ignored him and just said to himself:

"Originally, I thought that you were repaying a favor by sending the news from the six major sects that the Ming Cult had fallen into the hands of this person."

"Now it seems that the real news is actually this person."

"Ming Wang, Ming Wang, I was really careless."

Zhu Houzhao spoke slowly.

"Your Majesty, who is this Ming Wang, and how come he has the inheritance of the Earl of Chengyi?"

"It is natural that emperors of all dynasties would not disclose such top secrets." Zhu Houzhao said.

"But my Ming Dynasty had two incidents where divine artifacts were moved and inheritance was leaked. This could only have happened during these two turmoils."

Li Jinglong shut his mouth tightly. No matter how stupid he was, he knew what the two turmoils Zhu Houzhao mentioned were worth.

He is not his father Li Wenzhong, so he dare not get involved in such topics.

"Although Emperor Yingzong was taken prisoner during the Battle of Tumu, he was a captive during the battle, so it is impossible for him to carry such things with him. The possibility of it being leaked from him is not high."

"Then all that's left is..."

Zhu Houzhao slowly raised his head, his eyes emitting two extremely cold murderous auras:
"The remnants of Jianwen? I really didn't expect that even they would show up. Good! Good! Good!" Li Jinglong shuddered unconsciously.

There was no other reason, it was just that Zhu Houzhao's aura was too cold at this moment.

But he didn't dare interrupt.

The four words "remnants of Jianwen" have been a taboo since Emperor Taizong.

Although he came from Fengyang, he is considered one of the foundations of the Ming Dynasty.

But his background is just a bonus from his father Li Wenzhong's buy-one-get-one-free deal.

Moreover, he was an old minister of Jianwen and became famous in the battle with Taizong.

This topic is particularly fatal to him.

His small body can't handle such a big thing.

The remnants of Jianwen disappeared without a trace since Emperor Taizong Yongle came to power. Now they suddenly appear, and even a fool can tell what their purpose is.

Moreover, after so many years, God knows what kind of power the remnants of Jianwen have gained.

You have to know that that was the peak moment of the Ming Dynasty.

Although Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang has passed away, the foundation he left for future generations of the Ming Dynasty is extremely profound.

Especially Emperor Jianwen, the resources and conditions he possessed are absolutely unimaginable for ordinary people.

In fact, even to this day, countless people still cannot figure out how Emperor Yongle won.

Although Emperor Yongle was a man of great talent and strategy, and Emperor Daoyan and Yao Guangxiao were also unpredictable, the power of Emperor Jianwen was undoubtedly more powerful.

Of course, it is hard to tell what happened in the end.

But when Emperor Jianwen was defeated and fled from the imperial city, he took away and destroyed many things.

Liu Bowen's secret technique is just one of them. Even some secrets about Taizu have been lost even to the current Ming royal family. The root cause of this is this turmoil.

And now, after lying dormant for hundreds of years, the remnants of Jianwen have reappeared.

Although the strength comparison between the two sides is extremely disparate now.

On one side is the emperor who controls the entire country, while on the other side is not even a vassal king, but at best just a group of bandits.

But no one in the Ming Dynasty dared to underestimate them.

After all, in essence, they are the orthodox of the Ming Dynasty.

Moreover, he took over from Taizu, although he failed in the end and lost the country.

But no one knows whether Emperor Jianwen was a disheveled man or had some power when he escaped from Nanjing that night.

They currently have no special means left.

"Buzz, buzz, buzz!"

The aura of Zhu Houzhao became colder and colder, and the sword of immortality in his hand began to vibrate uncontrollably.

"Gudong."

Li Jinglong swallowed unconsciously.

For the first time, my underdeveloped brain started to work at high speed.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, although the dragon-slaying technique of the Earl of Sincerity is shocking, it is not a good technique."

"If you cut the dragon vein with human power, you will definitely suffer backlash. Immortals like Chengyi Bo have shortened their lifespans because of this. You can imagine how dangerous this method is."

"Why did the Great Sui seek this technique, and even Gao Changsheng went to the Great Sui in person?"

"This technique targets the dragon vein. Could it be that Yang Jian is going for this new dragon vein?"

Zhu Houzhao slowly retracted his breath, but when he heard the other party's last sentence, he couldn't help but roll his eyes.

The Sui Dynasty spent countless efforts and money to dig the canal and build the dragon vein, and now it is cut off with one sword just after it is formed?

Anyone with a normal mind would not come up with such a guess.

"What are you going for? You'll understand if you read on. I didn't expect that the Sui Dynasty would have this in mind. Yang Jian is indeed the founding emperor of the Sui Dynasty. He is ruthless and ruthless enough."

Zhu Houzhao spoke slowly.

Obviously, he had guessed Yang Jian's next purpose.

After all, the method in Yang Jian's hands came from the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Houzhao, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, had naturally seen this technique more than once.

Li Jinglong scratched his head and realized that his previous guess was unreliable.

"Which dragon vein does Yang Jian want to cut? But if he builds one and cuts another, wouldn't the Sui Dynasty be in vain? Strange."

Zhu Houzhao ignored the fool beside him and looked straight up into the sky.

Because at this time, the guillotine that occupied the entire sky had begun to fall.

"Ah, ah, ah."

Instinctive screams rose to the sky, and at the same time, waves of true energy were heard.

Then an extremely terrifying huge guillotine fell on his head, and a sharp aura enveloped his whole body.

Anyone who is a warrior will have this instinctive reaction.

Of course, the scene that everyone imagined did not happen.

Because the guillotine was not aimed at these people, so it would not fall on their heads.

"Ang~~~"

The vast and soul-stirring dragon roar suddenly came from the void.

next second.

In everyone's sight, a dragon that was so huge that it was difficult to describe appeared.

The dragon scales emit dazzling golden light.

The dragon's eyes were shining, as if it was scanning the sky, or as if it was looking down at the earth.

Everyone was shocked by the scene before them.

That dragon is really too big.

Its huge size seemed to cover the entire Sui Dynasty.

The majestic dragon head is located in Daxing.

The originally majestic Daxing City now looked somewhat miniature when placed near the dragon head.

"This...what is this?"

Cries of surprise were heard one after another. They had obviously never seen such a scene before.

But no one answered them at this time.

Because the terrifying guillotine hanging above the sky began to fall at a rapid speed.

"What is Yang Jian doing? He's crazy!"

The number of people who were paying attention to Yang Jian's movements in the sky at this time could only be described as countless.

Among them were those like Hou Mochen Chong who went there to cause trouble and cause destruction, those like Shi Zhixuan who were not completely on the opposite side and were just making small moves, those who were just watching and had nothing to do with it, and of course there were those who truly stood on the side of the Sui Dynasty, some even being officials of the imperial court.

But no matter which side it was, they all shouted the same sentence at this time.

This was because the direction in which the guillotine was heading was exactly the head of the giant dragon.

Anyone with a little knowledge could see that the sudden appearance of this vast dragon was actually nothing but the manifestation of the Sui Dynasty's national destiny.

In other words, at this time Yang Jian was cutting off the country's destiny with a single blow.

Cut off the country's destiny.

These three words alone are enough to make everyone's heart tremble.

Of course, this kind of thing has happened in history.

When two countries go to war and one country destroys the other, the final hurdle is the destiny of the country.

But that was a war between nations.

Moreover, as one country invades another, as it continues to advance and capture cities and territories, the other country's national fortune will continue to weaken, until finally the imperial city is broken and the national fortune is destroyed.

But the Yang Jian in front of him was obviously not like that. He was facing a national destiny that was at its peak.

More importantly, what Yang Jian wants to destroy now is his own country's destiny.

From ancient times to the present, throughout history, I have never seen such a crazy behavior.

It can even be said that this is no longer something that can be described by the word "madness", but rather a act of seeking death.
