Longevity Martial Arts Begins by Taking Care of the Queen

Chapter 107: Killing someone with a borrowed knife, creating a great master of heavenly beings [Please subscribe]

"The Gu family, Gu Jiange, pays homage to Patriarch Nangong!"

Swordsman Gu Jiange saluted the kind old man with white hair and beard who was watching the battle.

"What a dragon among men. If the Gu family is in your hands, it will flourish." The kind old man nodded slightly and said some words of praise.

He is the ancestor of the Nanping Nangong clan who ranks second among the nine great families in the world, a supreme grandmaster in the realm of heaven and earth.

Even if Yunyang Jianghu is weak, the imperial court will not despise a supreme master and treat him with courtesy.

Looking at this majestic sword master, Patriarch Nangong sighed secretly.

In just 50 years, the fortunes of the imperial court and the martial arts have changed. Strong men in the imperial court have emerged in endlessly, but there are no masters in the martial arts.

Even a middle-class family like the Gu family can have martial arts geniuses like Gu Jiange. This is a reflection of the change of luck in martial arts.

The Gu family, where Gu Jiange was born, can only be considered a middle-class family in Jiuyang City. It has only grown in recent years. It used to be just a small family.

But over the years, the Gu family has become a high-ranking official in the Yunyang court, and Gu Jiange has entered the realm of unity between man and nature, becoming a Grand Master. The Gu family's strength has rapidly increased, and it has become influential throughout the Yunyang Empire.

There are many families like the Gu family in Jiuyang City and even the entire Yunyang Empire. Half of them are concentrated in Jiuyang City and the other half are distributed in Yunyang states. They are the foundation of the Yunyang Empire and the sharp sword that suppresses the Yunyang world.

"Times make heroes." Ancestor Nangong sighed to himself again, feeling a little lonely.

According to his understanding, Gu Jiange was originally just a middle-aged man. At the age of 54, he was still in the late eighth realm, and his highest level in his life was the ninth realm master.

But as the Yunyang Empire became more glorious and prosperous, its national power soared, and its fortune in martial arts gradually transferred to the court, Gu Jiange also benefited from this.

Only 30 years later, Gu Jiange stepped from the eighth level to the tenth level of the unity of heaven and man. Seven years later, Gu Jiange was promoted to the middle stage of the unity of heaven and man. It is very likely that he would take half a step to the unification of heaven and earth in this life.

The great master of the middle stage of heaven who is less than [-] years old is outstanding in the whole world and can be called a martial arts wizard.

Nangong Xiaoyao is the most outstanding martial arts prodigy of the previous generation of the Nangong family. He broke through to the realm of unity of nature and man when he was in his 70s, but he could not reach the middle stage of the realm of unity of nature and man until he was in his early [-]s.

Nangong Xiaoyao has the support of the Eleventh Realm forces. Compared with Gu Jiange, he can only be regarded as a grassroots. However, Gu Jiange's strength is much stronger than Nangong Xiaoyao.

Ancestor Nangong believes that this is also the influence of the transfer of martial arts luck. Otherwise, Nangong Xiaoyao's talent would be able to reach the middle stage of heaven and human cultivation before the age of 80. Now he is likely to break through to the peak of heaven and human.

Ancestor Nangong was somewhat fortunate that he set foot in the realm of Heaven and Earth Tongxuan more than 40 years ago. The situation was complicated at that time, but he decisively chose to break through and finally successfully entered the realm of Heaven and Earth Tongxuan.

If he had delayed the date of joining Dao Tiandi due to hesitation, and with the change of martial arts luck, he might not be able to successfully join Dao Tiandi. After all, he was over 370 years old at the time and was approaching his end.

"The old man's words are serious."

"Only in the hands of my eldest brother can the Gu family flourish and bring glory to our ancestors." Gu Jiange said calmly.

He has a clear understanding of himself. He is not suitable to control and lead the development of the family. It is okay to be the face of the family and highlight the family's heritage.

The eldest brother has climbed to high positions step by step in the court, and he also needs his strength and support to be promoted to a higher official position.

The two brothers will work together, and the Gu family will surely grow and develop. Their generation will lay the foundation for the Gu family, and the Gu family will have the foundation to prosper in the future.

"Why should Jian Ge be humble?"

"Xiaoyao is much older than you, but his strength is not as good as yours."

Ancestor Nangong shook his head, his tone a bit sad.

Gu Jiange came to the Nangong clan to inquire about swordsmanship and defeated the most outstanding martial arts prodigy of the previous generation of the Nangong clan. He was not very respectful to him as the supreme master, but he could only ignore it. Who made the times change?

The Gu family where Gu Jiange lives is naturally not worth mentioning in the eyes of Patriarch Nangong, but he is extremely afraid of the Yunyang court behind the Gu family.

The ancestor of Nangong is a mature man, and he has long known that Gu Jiange came to Nanping to study the Nangong family not only for swordsmanship, but also for other purposes. That purpose is the most important, and it is probably related to the imperial court.

Otherwise, how could Gu Jiange, who had never met the Nangong family, suddenly run from Jiuyang City to the Nangong family tens of thousands of miles away to ask for a sword?
"The old ancestor's words are wrong."

"In Gu's opinion, brother Xiaoyao's strength is not much different from that of Cao Shaoqing, the leader of the Hidden Dragon Ranking, the Shocking Dragon Spear. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is an outstanding figure in the world."

Gu Jiange shook his head and suddenly mentioned Cao Shaoqing, who had stirred up the world before.

Ancestor Nangong's expression remained unchanged, but his heart moved. He probably knew Gu Jiange's purpose. He also saw that Gu Jiange was very proud.

Gu Jiange said that Xiaoyao's strength was not much worse than that of Cao Shaoqing, but Gu Jiange was much stronger than Xiaoyao. The implication was that he, Gu Jiange, could rival Cao Shaoqing?
Before he could speak, Nangong Xiaoyao hurriedly said: "What the Dragon Shocking Spear, I think it was blown out."

"How old is Cao Shaoqing? He is only 22 years old. How can he really reach the middle stage of the unity of heaven and man? The Twelfth Floor also touted his late-stage combat power of heaven and man and promoted him to the top of Qianlong. It's really ridiculous."

Nangong Xiaoyao's words were full of envy and jealousy, and he was very unhappy with Cao Shaoqing.

Patriarch Nangong glanced at him but said nothing. He knew why Xiaoyao was like this.

Nangong Xiaoyao had also been in the top five of the Hidden Dragon Ranking when he was young. He was extremely talented and should have achieved great achievements. In the future, he might be able to take over his position and step into the realm of the supreme grandmaster.

However, the transfer of martial arts luck has greatly affected the forces belonging to the Yunyang Jianghu, and the Nangong family is no exception. Without the love of martial arts luck, Nangong Xiaoyao's cultivation speed suddenly slowed down, and there was a lot of grievances in his heart.

Cao Ze was young but had profound cultivation. He reached the top of the Qianlong Ranking list, stirred up the world, was famous throughout the world, and overshadowed countless talented people of his generation. Nangong Xiaoyao felt even more unfair when comparing his own experiences.

In addition, Cao Ze was rated as the "Shocking Dragon Spear" by the Twelfth Floor. The description is: he is very good at marksmanship, the spear is like a dragon, he can turn into a dragon with the spear, the dragon sings in the sky, suppresses all directions, and has defeated.
The Nangong clan of Nanping is famous for its marksmanship and has many eleven-level marksmanship skills. Nangong Xiaoyao majors in "The Divine Dragon Strikes the Sky and Suppresses the Sea Spear". The ability to combine a man and a spear into a divine dragon can be said to be the same as Cao Shaoqing. almost.

Cao Shaoqing was promoted to the sky by the Twelfth Floor. Nangong Xiaoyao had the same cultivation level and was good at the same marksmanship, but his reputation was not great. How could he not feel resentful?
Now that he was provoked by Gu Jiange, he spoke rudely. In fact, Xiaoyao probably knew in his heart that Cao Shaoqing was truly an unparalleled person.

The Twelfth Floor is an Eleventh Realm force located in the Xuanzhen Dynasty. It has always been neutral and does not interfere in any disputes. It focuses on conducting various rankings and selections and has a huge influence in the world.

The reputation of the Twelfth Floor is also very good. It has never judged randomly and will give a fair evaluation to every candidate on the list. How could it commit fraud on Cao Shaoqing?

Cao Shaoqing was far away in the Daqian Dynasty and had nothing to do with the Twelfth Floor. How could the Twelfth Floor destroy its reputation for an unrelated person?
Moreover, the situation of the Daqian Dynasty has attracted the attention of all parties in the world, and Cao Shaoqing, who played a key role in turning things around, is by no means an easy person, and his abilities are only stronger than rumored.

"What Brother Xiaoyao said is absolutely true. Cao Shaoqing is just a clown, Brother Xiaoyao." Gu Jiange's eyes flashed and he said slowly.

Before he finished speaking, Patriarch Nangong spoke and said calmly: "Why is Jian Ge here today?"

Patriarch Nangong felt unhappy. Gu Jiange still wanted to provoke Xiaoyao to find trouble with Cao Shaoqing. Was it because he thought the Nangong family didn't have enough enemies?

If it had been his previous temperament, and a mere mid-level heavenly being dared to speak like this in front of him, Patriarch Nangong would have slapped him to death.

Gu Jiange smiled, aware of Patriarch Nangong's dissatisfaction, and did not continue. Instead, he straightened his expression and said, "Ancestor, Jiange really has something important to do today."

"Your Majesty sent a secret edict, asking me to hand it over to the ancestor in person. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, Jiange had no choice but to visit in the name of Wenjian and ask for the ancestor's forgiveness."

With that said, Gu Jiange took out the sealed secret edict from his arms, bowed his head, held it in both hands and handed it to Patriarch Nangong.

Seeing Gu Jiange's posture, Patriarch Nangong snorted secretly, but still didn't have both hands to pick it up. He just stretched out one hand, took it in his hand and opened it for inspection.

Gu Jiange straightened his chest and raised his head, his expression as calm as ever.

After reading the secret decree, Patriarch Nangong frowned slightly, put the secret decree away and said calmly: "I understand."

"In this case, Jiange will take his leave."

Gu Jiange's eyes moved slightly, but he still didn't say anything. He cupped his hands and left with his sword.

Nangong Xiaoyao wanted to say something, but when his ancestor remained silent, he had no choice but to shut up.Ancestor Nangong looked in the direction of Jiuyang City, his eyes were extremely deep, but his expression was getting colder and colder.

After a long time, he sneered and said: "Our Majesty really doesn't make people worry."

"Ancestor, what did Emperor Yunyang say?" Nangong Xiaoyao looked worried.

"What are you talking about? It's just some old tricks to drive away tigers and devour wolves." Ancestor Nangong said coldly.

But he sighed in his heart. Emperor Yunyang was using a conspiracy, even though he knew it was to drive the tiger away and devour the wolf, he couldn't follow it, which made him very unhappy.

Ye Jianjia, the head of Jingyesi in the Daqian Dynasty, had a big feud with his Nangong family. His martial arts talent was unparalleled, and he was about to join the Taoist world, and the ancestor of Nangong would not allow it.

Otherwise, if Ye Jianjia steps into the world and continues to advance rapidly in cultivation, it will be his Nangong family who should worry in the future.

As long as Ye Jianjia dares to join the path between heaven and earth, Patriarch Nangong will go south to block the path and take the opportunity to kill him and eliminate future troubles.

He had already investigated and found that none of the supreme masters of the Daqian Dynasty were willing to protect Ye Jianjia. No matter what the reason, as long as they did not protect the road, that would be fine.

Ancestor Nangong once thought about sneaking into the Daqian Dynasty secretly and killing Ye Jianjia. He also tried it, but for some reasons, he finally retreated.

He was actually very worried that Ye Jianjia would go to some caves and paradises where there was no supreme master. In that case, he would not be able to stop her, and the Nangong clan would face a formidable enemy.

But he could only comfort himself that Ye Jianjia was too proud to give up his future and do so. Currently, Ye Jianjia has not done so.

Emperor Yunyang said in a secret letter that Cao Shaoqing had made an agreement with Ye Jianjia on behalf of the Chenliu Cao family. Cao Changsheng, the ancestor of the Cao family, would protect Ye Jianjia.

These words were sworn, but Patriarch Nangong knew that these words were not very credible. His intention was just to use a borrowed knife to kill people, so that the Nangong family could deal with the Chenliu Cao family, destroying the situation of the Daqian Dynasty, and returning the Daqian Dynasty to its original state of internal and external troubles. pattern.

Cao Shaoqing went to see Ye Jianjia eight days ago. Patriarch Nangong knew about it, but he did not think that the two of them could make such a decision in just half an hour after meeting each other.

After all, Ye Jianjia's enemy is the Nangong clan of Nanping, who is more powerful than the Chenliu Cao clan. How can the Chenliu Cao clan casually provoke an Eleventh Realm force?
But Emperor Yunyang's words seemed like a seed falling into Patriarch Nangong's heart, taking root and sprouting, making him unable to control his thoughts in this regard.

What if Chenliu Cao really protects Ye Jianjia?

Patriarch Nangong sighed and had to admire Emperor Yunyang. He was worthy of being the hero who could lead Yunyang to rejuvenate and become the most powerful country in the world.

Although this was a conspiracy, suspected of driving a tiger to devour a wolf, or borrowing a knife to kill someone, Patriarch Nangong still wanted to jump into it, and he was also grateful to Emperor Yunyang for providing him with information that allowed him to make early preparations.

Ancestor Nangong looked towards the south and seemed to see the most powerful city in the world. His eyes were dark and bright, and he suddenly burst out with bright light.

The Daqian Dynasty was in the capital.

Chariot and Cavalry General's Mansion, the main hall.

After Cao Ze left Jingyesi, he did not go to the palace. It was not too late to see the empress at night, so he returned to Cao's mansion.

Sitting on the Grand Master's chair, Cao Ze was playing with a white jade elixir bottle in his hand, which contained the Heavenly Man elixir.

He was thinking about who should he give the Heavenly Man Pill to?
There are two suitable candidates in Cao Ze's mind. One is his uncle Cao Zhengyu, who has reached the peak of the Nine Realms of God Refining. By refining the Heavenly Man Pill, he will definitely be able to break through to the realm of the unity of Heaven and Man.

The other one is Nie Yinniang. After winning the bet, Cao Ze gave Nie Yinniang five days to prepare mentally before sleeping with her.

But when the time came, Cao Ze didn't put her to sleep. He was quite busy these days. In the evening, he had to go to see the Imperial Concubine to take care of herself. He also had to admire the beauty and plumpness of the Empress Dowager. Sometimes he could see the Purple Moon Demon Lord and the Queen Mother. The queen mother communicated together, and then went to Jingyue Tower to tease the devil's saint, tease Yun Qiao, and finally sleep with Biyue's arms in her arms.

So Cao Ze took the initiative to postpone the time and give Nie Yinniang more time. It would not be too late to eat when he was empty.

Nie Yinniang has been practicing hard these days, and her cultivation has reached the late stage of the Nine Realms of God Refining. If the Heavenly Man Pill is left to her, it will take some time to train a Heavenly Man Grandmaster.

"Shaoqing, what's the matter?"

My uncle hurried to the main hall and was relieved when he saw Cao Ze's leisurely appearance.

"Uncle, I have a great opportunity to send you off." Cao Ze said with a smile.

Although he said he was considering it, in fact, he had already made a decision in his mind, otherwise he would not have come to the main hall.

No matter how good Nie Yinniang is, no matter how much he covets her, she is still an outsider. Giving the Heavenly Man Pill to his uncle is the best choice.

When Nie Yinniang reaches the peak of heavenly cultivation, he might get a few more heavenly pills.

"Great opportunity? Give it to me?" Cao Zhengyu was a little confused.

He reacted quickly and said quickly: "Shaoqing, if there is any great opportunity, please keep it for yourself."

He naturally longs for opportunities, but he also knows that Cao Ze needs opportunities more than him. Only when Cao Ze grows up quickly will the Chenliu Cao family become stronger, and he will also be able to get feedback in return.

"Uncle, I won't be able to use this opportunity anymore."

Cao Ze smiled and threw the white jade pill bottle over.

Cao Zhengyu quickly caught it, hesitantly, but opened it after Cao Ze's signal.

Immediately, the fragrance of red wine hit his nostrils. After just one breath, Cao Zhengyu felt that the bottleneck was loosened, and he was instantly shocked.

Cao Zhengyu immediately put the cork back on the bottle, struggled for a while, then shook his head and said, "Young Master, you should keep such an important treasure."

"I am an old man. It would be a waste to use this kind of treasure. It is best to leave it to outstanding juniors."

Although he had never seen or heard of such magical elixirs, he could detect the effect just by smelling it, and the loosening of the bottleneck could not be faked.

Cao Zhengyu naturally wants to break through to the realm of unity between man and nature. This is not only about strength and status, but also about life span. Anyway, it affects a lot.

But his public spirit still defeated his selfishness.

"Uncle, you have worked hard for the family all your life, and you deserve this." Cao Ze only said one sentence.

Cao Ze knew this cousin very well and was very reassured. His character was extremely good, otherwise his father would not have sent him as his assistant.

He can even resist the temptation of Tianren Dan, which shows that his character is consistent.

Cao Zhengyu held the white jade elixir bottle tightly, took a few deep breaths, and then said gratefully: "Shaoqing, thank you."

Cao Ze nodded with a smile and said: "This is the Heavenly Man Pill. I got it by chance. It can help the peak master break through the unity of nature and man. It has no side effects, so I can rest assured."

After a pause, he continued: "Uncle, you can take it here, we will protect you."

"That's the best." Cao Zhengyu nodded.

There are two great masters here, Cao Ze and Xue Ningmei. If he had an accident during his breakthrough, they would not let anything happen to him.

Soon, Cao Zhengyu sat cross-legged, running the exercises to adjust his condition to the best, calming down his breathing and mentality. Then he took the Heavenly Man Pill and began to refine his luck.

After a while, Cao Zhengyu's aura was rising steadily, moving from the ninth level of refining gods to the tenth level of the unity of heaven and man.
