Daming Dynasty, Pingnan Prince's Mansion, study room.

King Pingnan looked at the man in white in front of him. Although this man was a commoner, when he saw him as a prince, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and even had some pride.

Once upon a time, King Pingnan looked down on these Jianghu people. Isn't there a popular saying among the people: Learn martial arts and sell them to the emperor's family.

He, Ping Nanwang, is the family of the emperor. No matter how good the martial arts of those Jianghu people are, as long as he spends a little money, they will sacrifice their lives for him.

But when his white jade unicorn was stolen by Jin Jiuling, when the commander of the nursing home in his house was deposed, and when the commander of the Jinyi Guards completely ignored him.

He finally understood that the palace was only a palace after all, not an imperial palace.

He is a descendant of the royal family, but he is not the emperor!

And a super master can really do many things that he can't imagine. Even if he has to sacrifice his life, he will not sacrifice his life for him.

"Master Ye City, I have agreed to your request. This matter depends entirely on Master Ye City. After this is completed, you will be the emperor's master. If you create a sect, you will be the state religion of the Ming Dynasty!"

King Pingnan looked at the man in white in front of him. This man was one of the top swordsmen in the world. Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City on Feixian Island, was known as the Sword Immortal in the world.

It is said that this man's flying immortal sword skills are like those of gods in the sky. They cannot be looked at directly and are unpredictable.

The sword is like an immortal, and people are also like immortals.

Although King Pingnan couldn't see how high this man's swordsmanship was, he knew that he must be stronger than Jin Jiuling, because he didn't even see Ye Gucheng draw his sword. Several Jinyiwei spies who had sneaked into the mansion died, and he even asked a master to directly

Surrender.

But precisely because he killed Jin Yiwei's spies, he had to discuss with Ye Gucheng today and let the plan start. Otherwise, once Jin Yiwei found out or was suspected by the little emperor, he would never have a chance again.

Ye Gucheng looked at King Pingnan: "Then the prince will spread the news about my duel with Ximen Chuixue to all the world. I also ask the prince to send someone to Wanmei Villa for this battle letter."

When his whole family was killed, he was the only one who escaped by chance. It was the care of King Pingnan that allowed him to escape the Ming Dynasty and escape to Feixian Island overseas.

Relying on his obsession and talent, he finally created a peerless swordsmanship and became famous.

King Pingnan wrote that he was in trouble and asked for help, so he came from Feixian Island.

I thought that helping King Pingnan take care of the safety of the palace and passing on some swordsmanship to Prince Pingnan would be repaying his gratitude, but King Pingnan made a new request. After thinking about it for a while, he agreed.

But what he actually wants to be is not just a swordsman, but the best swordsman in the world. He also wants to tell the world that he, the swordsman, is stronger than the swordsman Ximen Chuixue.

That is to say, the two generations of sword gods Xie Xiaofeng and Yan Nantian from the Song Dynasty have disappeared, otherwise he would have brought his sword to challenge, defeat or even kill the opponent!

This time, while repaying his kindness, he also fulfilled his dream and dueled with the best swordsman in the world, letting everyone know that his Feixian swordsmanship is the best in the world!

Ye Gucheng stood up and left quietly, just like when he came, no one noticed at all.

After he left Prince Pingnan's Mansion, a young man came to Prince Pingnan.

If any courtiers from the capital were here, they would definitely be shocked. Why is Your Majesty in Pingnan Palace?

"Father, Master has agreed? Can we succeed?"

King Pingnan looked at his son: "It will definitely succeed. I have arranged everything. With Ye Gucheng's help, nothing will go wrong!"

The man in front of me is the son of King Pingnan, who bears a striking resemblance to His Majesty the Ming Emperor.

The fathers of King Pingnan and the Little Emperor of the Ming Dynasty were brothers from the same father and mother. The Little Emperor and his son both looked very much like their fathers. Unless they were often with them, no one would wear dragon robes.

will doubt.

What he is going to do this time is a plan to change the situation. King Pingnan has no chance to sit on the throne, but if his son can become the emperor, then he can become the most carefree and powerful prince in the world, and even

Be the regent!

"Go ahead and learn the emperor's etiquette. Also learn the little emperor's demeanor, gait, and even tone and intonation. Keep at it for at least a year, so that you can never be seen through."

"I still have some things to arrange as a father, but all of this is for you."

After his son left, King Pingnan walked out of the study and came to a side courtyard. In the courtyard was a young man with a gloomy face.

"Tang Tianyi, you are going to the capital in two days to fight Ye Gucheng. He won't kill you, but you will definitely be seriously injured."

"But after everything is done, I promise to help you rebuild the Tang family in the Ming Dynasty. Even after the Song Dynasty is destroyed in the future, you can take back the ancestral property and return to Shu to rebuild the Tang family. I will never break my promise."

Tang Tianyi stared at King Pingnan: "If you break your promise, I, the Tang family, will never give up."

The Tang Sect was gone, so he, the eldest son of the Tang Sect, escaped with his direct descendant Tang Tianzong, and also found some people from the Tang Sect branch.

Believe it or not, there is no way they can rebuild the Tang Sect.

Even though he heard that Dugu Yihe, the head of Emei who destroyed their Tang sect, was dead and the Emei sect was completely in decline, he still did not dare to go back.

Because the Tang Sect's Poison Formation is gone, and so are the Tang Sect's disciples, they are the only ones who can't get back those ancestral properties, and other martial arts sects won't allow it.

So he could only escape to the Ming Dynasty, hoping to establish a foothold first, and then fight back after his strength increased further.

But the world of the Ming Dynasty is even more dangerous, because the Sun and Moon Demon Sect has almost unified the world, and even Northern Shaolin, which has been inherited for thousands of years, has been destroyed.

In desperation, he could only hide in Prince Pingnan's palace, but was discovered by Ye Gucheng, who was invited by Prince Pingnan.

If Ye Gucheng didn't think he was still useful, he would be a corpse now.

He had never seen someone with such terrifying sword intent. Even though he hadn't drawn the sword yet, it was as if the sword was already in front of his throat and could kill him at any time, even before he could use poison.

But it was also this pressure that gave him greater motivation, and his strength also improved further.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Isn’t the decline of the Tang Sect due to the Sun Moon Demon Sect and the people from the Five Immortals Sect? Otherwise, Dugu Yihe could have destroyed Tang Sect.

Door?

He promised King Pingnan because he wanted to use the power of the Ming royal family, especially Ye Gucheng, to destroy the Sun and Moon Demon Sect.

If Ye Gucheng becomes the spiritual master and establishes a state religion, will he allow the Sun and Moon Demon Sect to exist?

King Pingnan laughed loudly: "I never go back on my promises. I have told you exactly how to do it. If you ruin my plan, no one in the Tang family will be alive."

Tang Tianyi snorted coldly and jumped over the courtyard wall.

King Pingnan may not be able to do it, but Ye Gucheng can definitely do it.

King Pingnan raised his head and looked in the direction of the capital: "Little Emperor, don't blame Uncle Wang for being cruel. You were the one who wronged Uncle Wang first."

He felt that the white jade unicorn must have been obtained by Jin Yiwei and given to the Ming Emperor.

How could he bear it when he took away his treasure, disrespected his uncle Wang, and didn't even deal with Lin Lang, the commander of the Jinyi Guards?

He could do what Zhu Yilan had to do at the beginning.

Zhu Wuwu contacted the top ten generals of the border town. This could not be hidden from the world. After all, the top ten generals had already led their troops to leave the military camp of the border town.

But Zhu Wuli died, and the little emperor did not take action against the generals of the ten towns. He only fined him a small salary, but everyone knew that the little emperor would definitely settle the score later.

When the people from Xichang went to the border town to investigate, didn’t the General Soldiers of the Ten Towns notice anything? The imperial court sent eunuchs to serve as supervisors. Didn’t the General Soldiers of the Ten Towns know what was going on?

Protect them? Monitor them!

So King Pingnan secretly sent someone to contact the generals of the ten towns, and they all hit it off.

For the general soldiers of the ten towns, if the little emperor is not eliminated, they will be in fear every day.

Supporting King Pingnan is no different from supporting the original Zhu Wuwu. They are both "Qingjun side" and Jingnan.

If King Pingnan succeeds, they will no longer be rebels, but they will all be great contributors.

Even if he is relieved of military power, he can still be granted the title of Duke, which at least allows the three generations of his family to be free from worries. They no longer have to worry about being settled by the little emperor and having his family confiscated and exterminated.

King Pingnan murmured to himself: "I have courtiers, military power, money, and masters in the world. The plan is complete, and I have people in the palace. We will definitely not be defeated this time!"

Returning to the bedroom, King Pingnan was in a rare mood. He exercised with his newly married concubine and fell asleep beautifully.

In the dream, all his dreams came true.

His son became the emperor, and he himself became the regent. Lin Lang, the commander of the royal guards, knelt in front of him and cried bitterly, begging for his forgiveness, but he still beheaded him.

He also got his beloved white jade unicorn back, and even the treasures in the palace were his.

…

Wanmei Villa.

Ximen Chuixue was practicing his sword when he suddenly found Sun Xiuqing coming to the yard.

What's going on? Didn't I say before that she shouldn't disturb him when he was practicing his sword? If he entered the state of selflessness, he would easily kill her by mistake.

Sun Xiuqing was usually very obedient and never disturbed him when he was practicing his sword. He also accompanied Sun Xiuqing while practicing his sword. What happened today?

Although he felt confused, Ximen Chuixue practiced for another half an hour before sheathing his sword and walked to Sun Xiuqing: "What happened?"

Sun Xiuqing looked at Ximen Chuixue: "Today I asked the housekeeper to invite three doctors to diagnose my pulse."

Ximen Chuixue grabbed Sun Xiuqing's wrist: "What's wrong with you? Something went wrong in your practice?"

He also understands medicine, why bother to invite a doctor?

Just feeling his pulse, he suddenly felt strange. It didn't look like he had suffered an internal injury.

Sun Xiuqing looked at Ximen Chuixue: "The three doctors all said that I am pregnant."

"Are you happy?" Ximen Chuixue repeated, and then exclaimed: "Are you happy?!"

He and Sun Xiuqing had not been together for long, but he did not expect to be happy so soon.

So, he's going to be a father soon?

"That's great, it's really great." Ximen Chuixue was at a loss for words with excitement, "If it's a daughter, I must make her happy, and I'll protect you both; if it's a boy, I'll teach him how to practice swordsmanship, and we'll protect her together in the future.

you."

It was rare for Sun Xiuqing to hear love words from Ximen Chuixue's mouth, and her eyes were bent with laughter.

The two of them were looking forward to the future together when the butler's voice came from the door: "Master, someone has sent you an invitation."

Ximen Chuixue's voice came out: "Whose, I won't leave the villa recently. Also, hire a midwife, hire a wet nurse in advance, and hire two doctors who are good at conditioning the body of pregnant women, and let them stay."

Villa, double the money."

"Master, you'd better take a look at this invitation." The butler's voice came in again, with a hint of trembling.

Ximen Chuixue realized something was wrong, opened the door and went out. She saw blood on the corner of the housekeeper's mouth and his face was pale.

He suddenly looked at the invitation in the butler's hand. After opening it, it seemed as if a sword was coming out of the post and piercing his eyes.

What a strong sword spirit!

This sword intention is like a clear sky and white clouds, flawless and untainted, like a rainbow penetrating the sun, making people feel chilled all over.

There are only a few people in the world who have such a strong sword intention. Even Lin Lang does not have such a strong sword intention. Whose invitation is this?

If you look carefully, there are only a dozen words on it - On a full moon night, on the top of the Forbidden City, I am willing to compete with you!

Signed by Ye Gucheng.

Ximen Chuixue was trembling with excitement. Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, was known as the swordsman in the world and was the swordsman he had always wanted to challenge.

Originally, after he entered the realm of heaven and man, he thought he had surpassed Ye Gucheng, and he had given up on this obsession.

But now that he saw the sword intention in Ye Gucheng's battle letter, he knew that Ye Gucheng was already in the realm of heaven and man.

If it had been before, he would have set off without hesitation and even advanced the duel time because he couldn't wait to compete with Ye Gucheng.

But now, he felt a little more hesitant in his heart.

Because he had concerns in his heart, and because he was transforming from a ruthless sword to a sentimental sword, his swordsmanship actually became weaker.

If a swordsman hesitates in his heart and his sword is no longer firm, how can he still win?

But if he doesn't agree, his swordsmanship will also be affected.

A swordsman should move forward without hesitation. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, he must break them with one sword.

After retreating this time, Ye Gucheng may become his inner demon in the future. How can he improve his swordsmanship?

Sun Xiuqing walked out of the yard: "What's wrong?"

As I said that, I wanted to see the invitation.

Ximen Chuixue quickly closed the invitation: "You can't read it. It contains Ye Gucheng's sword intention. Your martial arts heart will be broken, and you will have no hope of being promoted to the realm of a grand master for the rest of your life. You may not even be able to hold the sword.

"

It is more likely that she was injured by this sword intention and affected the fetus in her belly.

Sun Xiuqing looked at Ximen Chuixue: "What is he going to do?"

"Fight with me."

"Do you have to go?"

"Had to go."

Sun Xiuqing knew that once Ximen Chuixue decided something, he would never change it. She would not and could not stop it.

"Can you win?"

Ximen Chuixue was silent for a while: "You will know after comparing."

Sun Xiuqing's expression changed. Ximen Chuixue had always been full of confidence, especially after seeing Ye Gucheng's sword intent. He should be able to understand the difference, but this time he hesitated.

Then it is very possible that Ximen Chuixue thinks that he will lose.

Her joy at having a child was instantly washed away.

No, Ximen Chuixue might die, he still has those friends.

Sword fighting doesn't have to involve life and death, isn't it just a matter of exchanging ideas?

"Let's go and eat. I'll set off early tomorrow morning to make preparations in advance and adjust my condition."

Sun Xiuqing thought for a moment: "Two of your friends helped us last time. Why don't you bring them some gifts along the way? Are you still in time?"

Ximen Chuixue nodded: "It's too late. If it's not convenient for you now, just wait for me at home. I will definitely come back before the end of the month... If I don't come back, you don't have to wait for me."

Early the next morning, Ximen Chuixue set off in a carriage. Sun Xiuqing watched the carriage go away and sighed.

This is the sadness of being married to a peerless swordsman, worrying about him all the time.

But she also knew that she couldn't stop it, as that would make Ximen Chuixue unhappy, and she would be unhappy too.

I just hope that Ximen Chuixue’s friends can bring Ximen Chuixue back alive this time.

…

"Sir, something big has happened in Jianghu."

Shangguan Haitang stood in front of Lin Lang with a solemn expression.

Lin Lang put down the bean curd in his hand. It was too sweet and not delicious.

Like abalone, he likes to eat salty ones.

"What's making you so anxious?"

The biggest thing was that Northern Shaolin was wiped out. He did it.

"Sir, I have received news that the Lord of Baiyun City, Ye Gucheng, has come to the Ming Dynasty. It is said that he has come to the capital."

"I came here this time to challenge Ximen Chuixue, the sword god of Wanmei Villa."

Lin Lang sat up straight: "Ye Gucheng is here? Are you going to fight Ximen Chuixue? Tsk, why is it at this time?"

He knew very well that last time he told Ximen Chuixue that turning the ruthless sword into a compassionate sword could not be done in a short time. Even if Ximen Chuixue was extremely talented, it could not be done overnight.

Now Ximen Chuixue's swordsmanship must be much weaker. How could he defeat Ye Gucheng?

Ye Gucheng's reputation as a swordsman was not blown out of proportion, but earned by his own ability.

There are so many islands in the outer sea to the south of the Song Dynasty. Why Feixian Island is the first? Because of Ye Gucheng, even people from the Jianghu of the Song Dynasty do not dare to go wild there.

Although Ye Gucheng has only been famous for a few years, it was in these few years that he got the title of Sword Immortal, and no one dared to object.

Lu Xiaofeng once said that he had seen the corpses of people killed by Ye Gucheng. From the corpses, it could be seen that Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship was indeed unparalleled in the world and was by no means weaker than Ximen Chuixue.

Lu Xiaofeng didn't know who was more powerful between the two, but he said that both of them had better swordsmanship than him.

Shangguan Haitang continued: "Sir, someone has spread the news about their fight all over the world. Now many people in the world are rushing to the capital of Ming Dynasty to watch the fight."

"It is said that the time and place for the battle is the night of the full moon, at the top of the Forbidden City."

"Does Ye Gucheng want to defeat Ximen Chuixue in the most heavily guarded place in the world? Or does he want their battle to attract the attention of the whole world?"

She couldn't understand why it had to be at the top of the Forbidden City and why it had to be known to the whole world.

When masters compete with each other, aren’t they most afraid of being disturbed?

If you really want to duel, why not go directly to Wanmei Villa?

"Sir, you have to find a way to stop this, otherwise the Ming Dynasty will be in chaos."

If you compete at the top of the Forbidden City, the royal family's face will be trampled on. If all the people from the world flock to the palace, who knows how much trouble will happen.

Lin Lang was also thinking, how to stop the duel between the two?

There seems to be a simple answer, just kill one first.
