God Emperor

The eighth prince was assassinated in the royal city, and even his head was cut off. The impact was too bad. If the murderer was not found and severely punished, wouldn't anyone dare to kill members of the royal family in the future?

Thunder King of Yunwu County was furious. He summoned the ten generals guarding the royal city into the palace overnight, closed the city gates, and blocked the Wu City. He would rather arrest a hundred by mistake than let one go.

"After so many years, someone actually dares to assassinate members of the royal family in the royal city. They are really courageous." Prince Yunwu snorted coldly.

In the main hall, the ten generals felt as if they heard a muffled thunder explosion, and their eardrums seemed to be broken. They trembled all over and immediately fell to their knees on the ground.

Each of the ten of them commanded tens of thousands of soldiers and horses, held high positions of authority, and their own martial arts cultivation was even more powerful. However, Prince Yunwu just snorted coldly and shocked them all to the ground.

There is no way, who is called Prince Yunwu, but he is a powerful person in the Heavenly Realm, which can be called a martial arts myth. Among warriors, he is like "Heaven".

National Preceptor Xue Jingtian stood respectfully below and said, "Your Majesty, could this matter be related to the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect? In Yunwu County, the only ones who dare to oppose the royal family are the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect and the black market."

"Although the black market also gathers many vicious and evil people, their work is usually linked to profit. Killing the Eighth Prince is completely without profit, and it is not like their style of doing things."

"On the contrary, it's the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect. They believe in demons and act erratically. It's entirely possible that they could kill the eighth prince to challenge the majesty of the royal family."

"Moon Worshiping Demon Cult?" Prince Yunwu's eyes darkened slightly.

In Yunwu County, the most powerful force is naturally the royal family, which controls the world's soldiers and horses, and is as strong as the clouds, ruling the entire kingdom.

Other sects and families can only be regarded as small households in front of the royal family, and there is no comparison at all.

However, there are also some forces that can challenge the royal family, such as the Inscription Guild, the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect, the Black Market, and the Wushi Bank.

Inscription Pattern Guild and Wushi Bank, one controls all the alchemists, weapon refiners, beast masters, and strange people in the world; the other controls almost more than 30% of the entire kingdom's property.

The Mingwen Guild and Wushi Bank are spread throughout the Kunlun Realm, and their words are enough to influence the decision made by the Yunwu County Prince.

Of course, the Inscription Pattern Guild, Wushi Bank and the official forces complement each other and are mutually beneficial. Under normal circumstances, they will never go against the official forces.

In peaceful times, the Mingwen Guild and Wushi Bank symbolically surrendered to the official forces and, to a certain extent, accepted the management of the official forces.

However, matters that really involve core interests are all managed by the Inscription Guild and Wushi Bank themselves, and even official forces cannot get involved.

The black market, like the Inscription Guild and Wushi Bank, has existed since ancient times and is completely outside the control of official forces.

The black market specializes in all kinds of dirty underground transactions and belongs to the dark side of the world.

They control most of the world's killers, prostitutes, thieves, wanted murderers, and even a large number of slave traders and dark mercenaries.

The black market can compete with Wushi Bank to a certain extent and is quite powerful.

Official forces can suppress the black market to a certain extent, but they can never eliminate them. Even in some other counties, the black market has controlled the entire county's government and military, turning that county into a paradise of darkness.

As for the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult, it is even more terrifying. They believe in demon gods and have many powerful people. They have established branches in every county and city to specifically fight against the official forces.

They even want to overthrow the rule of the First Central Empire and control the entire Kunlun Realm.

The Moon Worshiping Demon Sect will establish a general rudder in every county and establish a general rudder. In every city under the county flag, establish a branch helm and set up a helmsman.

In Yunwu County, there is naturally a force of the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult.

It is said that the chief helmsman of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect in Yunwu County is also a cultivator in the Tianji realm and a martial arts legend.

"If it is really someone from the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult who killed the Eighth Prince, then it is definitely a sign of threat. They are testing the background of Yunwu Commandery. It is not certain. A large number of Demon Cult masters are gathering towards Yunwu Commandery, preparing to attack Yunwu County takes action." National Preceptor Xue Jingtian said

The Imperial Master was the Queen's brother, so he naturally knew that the Eighth Prince was accidentally killed by people sent by the Queen.

In order to prevent Prince Yunwu from suspecting the queen, he could only divert Prince Yunwu's attention to the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult.

The assassination of a prince was a big deal, but the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult was an even bigger deal.

You know, over the past eight hundred years, the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect has wiped out more than one county. For many rulers, it is like a nightmare.

If the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult really wants to attack Yunwu County on a large scale, no matter how important other things are, Yunwu County King will definitely let it go first.

After hearing the words of the Imperial Master, Prince Yunwu's expression turned serious.

The Imperial Master glanced at Prince Yunwu and breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, Prince Yunwu diverted his attention. If Prince Yunwu ordered a thorough investigation into the cause of the eighth prince's death, it might really be possible to find out the queen.

"The Eighth Prince cannot be killed by the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult!" Zhang Ruochen walked in from outside the hall and said loudly.

The Imperial Master's eyes narrowed and he said, "His Royal Highness, the Ninth Prince, do you have any other suggestions?"

Zhang Ruochen said: "The Eighth Prince was riding in my car, so he was killed on the way back to the palace. Obviously, the target of the assassination was me, and the Eighth Prince was just accidentally killed!"

Prince Yunwu nodded and said: "Jiu'er is right. The Moon Worshiping Demon Cult always maintains a high profile. If it really intends to provoke the royal family, it will definitely not be as simple as assassinating Ba'er. This matter must be thoroughly investigated! Also! , just in case, Ge Qian, you should leave the palace immediately and secretly investigate the recent movements of the Moon Worshiping Demon Sect."

"Subordinate, take orders!"

Ge Qian, the personal bodyguard of Prince Yunwu, bowed his hands and then withdrew. He left the palace overnight to investigate the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult.

Later, Zhang Ruochen and the ten generals also left the hall.

The ten generals immediately rushed to investigate the cause of the eighth prince's death and arrest the murderer.

Zhang Ruochen returned to Yushu Palace, checked Yun'er's injuries, and then entered the inner space of the space-time crystal to continue practicing.

"The person those killers want to kill must be me. What happened tonight was really dangerous. If the eighth prince hadn't forced Yun'er to send him back to the palace, I would have been the one who died. Who could it be?"

During the year-end assessment, his performance was so dazzling that he would definitely be jealous.

The people in the palace are the most suspect.

Of course, the black market and the Moon Worshiping Demon Cult are not completely impossible. After all, the birth of a top genius in the royal family is also a big threat to them. The best way is to kill that genius in the cradle.

"Why do you think so much? As long as my cultivation is strong enough, no one can kill me. Besides, the eighth prince's assassination caused too much noise. It is unlikely that the other party will launch a second assassination in a short time."

Zhang Ruochen stopped thinking about it and took out a Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill and held it in the palm of his hand.

The Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill is as big as a dragon's eye. It is like a burning flame, emitting a very hot aura.

The third-grade elixir is indeed different. The elixir it contains is too strong.

You know, the price of a Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill is comparable to that of a fifth-level true martial arts treasure. Only Zhang Ruochen would purchase seven such luxurious pills at once.

Only someone with a physical body as strong as Zhang Ruochen would dare to swallow the Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill. If it were another warrior who was at the top of the Huangji Realm, not only would he not be able to refine the Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill, he would even be in danger of being burned by the pill fire.

Swallowing the Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill into your belly is like swallowing a small scorching sun. The pain is definitely no less than the pain of practicing in the Barbarian God Pond.

"Chichi!"

A trace of elixir fire and elixir energy surged out from the Heavenly Elephant Red Fire elixir and penetrated into Zhang Ruochen's meridians, flesh and blood, bones, and five internal organs, constantly tempering his body.

It took Zhang Ruochen three full days to completely refine the red fire pill of Tianxiang Red Fire Pill, and the strength of his physical body was greatly improved. Not only that, the true qi in the qi pool actually doubled.

In the past three days, Zhang Ruochen had only refined all the Dan Fire, and the Dan Qi had been refined by 30%.

It took another five days for Zhang Ruochen to refine all the elixir energy of the Tianxiang Red Fire Pill. The true energy in the qi pool has increased a lot.

"At this rate, if I refine two more Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pills, I will be able to complete the cultivation of the true energy in the qi pool and reach the peak of the middle stage of Huangji Realm."

The function of the Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill is not to enhance the true energy, but to temper the physical body.

However, the Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill was too heaven-defying. While tempering his physical body, it also increased the amount of Zhang Ruochen's true energy a lot.

Zhang Ruochen was not in a hurry to refine the second Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill. After all, the Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pill was too powerful. If taken continuously, even Zhang Ruochen's powerful physique would definitely not be able to bear it.

"Practice carving basic space inscriptions first!"

Zhang Ruochen took out the inscription pen and spiritual paper, injected his true energy into the inscription pen, and carved on the spiritual paper over and over again.

After practicing for a whole day and wasting more than 130 pieces of spiritual paper, I still could not successfully carve out an inscription.

He was not discouraged and continued to practice and carve.

In the next month, Zhang Ruochen almost always stayed in the inner space of the space-time crystal, only going out every three days.

Most of the rest of the time was spent practicing Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, Tianxin Sword Technique and practicing carving eight basic space inscriptions.

One month in the outside world, the inner space of the space-time crystal is three months.

In three months, Zhang Ruochen refined three Celestial Elephant Red Fire Pills, and finally completed the cultivation of the true energy in the qi pool, reaching the peak of the Huangji Realm, and could start to attack the Huangji Realm's Great Ultimate.

"With my current physique, even compared with my previous life, it's pretty much the same. After all, I was only six years old when I broke through the Huangji realm in my last life." Zhang Ruochen said.

Zhang Ruochen is ready to attack the great extreme of Huangji Realm.

"I wonder how many meridians can be opened up? In my previous life, when I was at the Great Ultimate of the Huangji Realm, twenty-seven meridians were opened up. In this life, can I surpass it?"

Zhang Ruochen's eyes became extremely determined, no matter what, he had to do it.
