Chapter 38 The sword stained with the blood of the royal family
The abandoned yard in the palace was blowing with a very cold wind, and the sound of falling leaves slapping made Li Mengzhou feel a little dazed.
He stared at His Majesty the Emperor in a daze, as if he had never expected that the person who caused Jiang Tingyu to enter the temple was Li Daoling!
According to time, Li Daoling had already established Bu Er Cave at that time, but Han Yi and his disciples had not yet entered the world.
Li Mengzhou didn't know why Li Daoling had a fight with Jiang Tingyu, and what was Li Daoling's purpose in appearing in the capital?
His heart couldn't calm down for a moment.
His Majesty the Emperor was very satisfied with his current performance and continued to speak: "Li Daoling once joined the Tianshu Courtyard very briefly. Although I had a good relationship with Jiang Tingyu, I invited him many times, but he refused. Because Li Daoling entered the Tianshu Courtyard, I had the opportunity to let Jiang Tingyu fight side by side with me in the court. At that time, I was directly in charge of Tianshu Courtyard. Li Daoling and Jiang Tingyu were my right-hand arms. They helped me a lot and allowed me to sit on the throne with peace of mind."
"Because my father died of illness, those uncles wanted to sit in that position. The royal disputes were always like that. I had to make up my mind and not give up my father's king's country. As a result, Li Daoling's sword was stained with the blood of my royal family."
His Majesty the Emperor glanced at the Jingzhe Sword on the back of Li Mengzhou and said, "The knife you are holding now is like the black-green sword you once held. The purpose is nothing more than to cover up the existence of the Bu Er Sword. When you first arrived in the capital, you obviously did not think too carefully about things. Although the Bu Er Sword is wrapped in a black cloth, the powerful monk can see through the essence of the black cloth. Even if you quickly realize the problem, Jiang Tingyu and I have seen it after all."
"I've made it very clear, now it's your turn to say."
His Majesty the Emperor pointed to the old courtyard and said, "There are array techniques arranged by Cao Rushan here. Even the fifth-level cultivator can't see through it. The formation magician is such a special existence. Although Cao Rushan does not have the ability to kill the fifth-level cultivator at will, he is a formation magician at the peak of the fourth-level. His killing formation can already trap the fifth-level cultivator. It is very easy to just avoid sight and sound."
Li Mengzhou looked at His Majesty the Emperor quietly and said, "Although His Majesty specially arranged to meet me, many people will be able to notice me when I left the banquet. Even if I looked at this place, I could not see us or hear our voices. Now I can probably understand why Your Majesty did this more. What you are worried about is not to see me publicly, but to let those who want to watch here open their eyes and let him know that there is something wrong, but he doesn't know what is wrong. Maybe he can guess something, but after all, it's just a guess, which is far less safe than seeing it with his own eyes."
His Majesty the Emperor smiled without saying a word.
Li Mengzhou pondered, what His Majesty the Emperor said was indeed very clear, and the situation caused was that it was impossible for him to choose to continue to hide anything. Since His Majesty the Emperor stood here, he must know the truth. Perhaps His Majesty the Emperor did not think about killing him, but if he didn't say anything, it would be impossible to walk out safely.
If Li Daoling was once a member of Tianshu Academy and His Majesty the Emperor did not lie, he really had no reason to continue hiding it. He needed to use some external force, then this external force would not be better than His Majesty Emperor.
He slowly stretched out his hand, and the Qi Hai Lingyuan was surging. The Bu Er Sword was floating in his palm. He raised his eyes to look at His Majesty the Emperor. Li Mengzhou said softly: "Actually what I want to say is that this sword was picked up when I was a child, not given by someone."
His Majesty the Emperor frowned slightly. He looked at Li Mengzhou in surprise, as if he wanted to see clearly whether the young man was still hiding, but Li Mengzhou's eyes were very sincere, that was the truth.
Just as he said to everyone in the gentle village.
His Majesty the Emperor was silent for a long time and asked, "If you picked up the Buer Sword, what is your purpose in investigating Dan Tai Jing?"
Li Mengzhou said: "I understand what Your Majesty and the head of Jiang Yuan are doubting. Your guess is not wrong. Although I picked up the Bu Er Jian, my purpose in coming to the capital was indeed because of Bu Er Cave."
Since he had already made a statement, no matter whether the Emperor was deliberately deceiving him, he decided to take a gamble. He said seriously: "There are many problems in the collapse of Bu Erdong that year. When Li Daoling was young, he performed well in the period of demon destruction and soon emerged. Not long after, he built Bu Erdong, but it was just an empty mountain gate. He was actually a little lazy and unwilling to recruit too many disciples. It was too troublesome to manage it, so he decided to find a highly qualified disciple in the world."
"Most of the geniuses are excavated by the quiet mountains and seas, and no matter how bad they are, they are still encapsulated by the powerful Five Realms Sect. It is difficult to find the genius disciples left to Li Daoling, so they spent a lot of time on finding the disciples."
"The six disciples of Bu Er Cave come from all over the world, and they are all amazing. They shocked the world's cultivators on the first day of their entry. Because of Li Daoling's personality, he has many enemies who don't like him, but he can't help him. He accepted the six disciples who are evil. It is normal to destroy Bu Er Cave because of fear or other mentality."
"But except for the quiet mountains and seas, no force in the world can destroy Bu Er Cave overnight. Unless most of the four realms and above sects in the world cooperate to fight together, the destruction of Bu Er Cave was not very disturbed on the day, which shows that the mastermind behind the scenes did not rely on the human sea tactics, so you can be sure that there must be a great monk above the five realms of the quiet mountains and seas, and there may even be more than one."
Li Mengzhou stared at the eyes of His Majesty the Emperor and said in a deep voice: "The so-called I picked up the Bu Er Sword, not given by Li Daoling. Although it is a fact, I was there on the day the Bu Er Cave was destroyed. Because of this, I was able to pick up the Bu Er Sword. At that time, I was very young and couldn't remember many things very clearly, but what deeply remembered me was that in front of that sea of fire, a figure appeared, called Qin Chengyi. I didn't remember his face, but it was the only name I remembered."
"I have struggled to survive in the dark and dirty places of Jiang Kingdom. I found many names called Qin Chengyi, but they were not in line with it. Until I found that there was a prince named Qin Chengyi in the capital, and I saw his portrait by chance. Although his face was very blurry in my memory, the moment I saw the portrait, the memory seemed to become clear in an instant."
His Majesty the Emperor was silent for a moment and said, "Qin Chengyi has always been restless. Even if he is low-key, he is my brother after all. His disguise is very transparent in front of me. But I have never said anything. Qin Chengyi is related to the destruction of Buerdong. I never thought that he could cover my eyes by reaching his hand into Tianshu Courtyard, but there is still Jiang Tingyu in Tianshu Courtyard."
"He has done a lot of things secretly, and because he has not touched my bottom line, I turned a blind eye. After all, he is my only brother. But recently, I have gradually discovered that because of my tolerance for him, he has become more and more presumptuous. If the disciples he trained only have no strength to destroy Buerdong, I am asking Jiang Tingyu to investigate secretly. No useful thing has been found yet, but there must be Shan Hai Qingyou and Qin Chengyi's cooperation. It's just that I don't know where that Shan Hai Qingyou belongs."
Speaking of this, His Majesty the Emperor stared at Li Mengzhou's face with a slightly serious expression, "You did not say why you should investigate the truth about the destruction of Bu Erdong. I originally suspected that you were the new disciple of Bu Erdong back then. If you were not, who were you? Just an outsider who happened to appear there? You did not say enough reason to let you take the risk to the capital."
Li Mengzhou looked down at the Bu Er Jian in his hand and said, "I met Li Daoling when I was a child. He talked to me and passed on the magical powers of the Bu Er Cave to me, but he also blocked my Qihai. I am not his disciple, but I am practicing Bu Er Cave's magical powers. By chance, I picked up Bu Er Jian who lost his master. That might be fate."
His Majesty the Emperor said: "One day, he will be a teacher and a father. Li Daoling did not accept you as his disciple, but gave you the insightful magical powers of Bu Erdong. So for gratitude, you want to investigate the truth about the destruction of Bu Erdong. Although it sounds reasonable, I think there are still big problems in your words. It seems that you still don't trust me enough."
He took the Bu Er Sword from Li Mengzhou, looked it carefully, and seemed to evoke some kind of memory, and said softly: "At that time, Li Daoling wanted to break the barriers of the five realms and lead Bu Er Cave into the quiet mountains and seas. He also wanted to recruit the seventh disciple to enter. Since he passed on to you the enlightenment magical powers of Bu Er Cave, then you are likely to be the seventh disciple to enter. Even if it is not, you should be the eighth disciple to enter at the same time. He has no reason to hide it from the world, nor does he want you as an apprentice, otherwise it would be very unreasonable for him to teach you the enlightenment magical powers."
"Every five-level sect has its own insights and supernatural powers, and only personal disciples are qualified to contact. I don't care what you want to continue to hide, or what you are thinking in your heart, but a freak like Li Daoling who is not controlled is willing to help me sit on the throne and fight a way out. Then he is the best brother to me, even if he is much older than me."
"Qin Chengyi is my brother, but if he really participated in the Fueru Cave Destruction incident, I would not continue to tolerate him."
His Majesty the Emperor looked at Li Mengzhou and said, "This is my attitude."
Li Mengzhou was also looking at His Majesty the Emperor. At this moment, he could clearly feel that His Majesty the Emperor was very serious and endured a certain anger, or a kind of sorrow, guilt.
His heart was a little touched.
He also looked at His Majesty the Emperor seriously and said, "Those words are facts, but I do have some things I have not said. I may face many enemies, very strong, and even exceed my imagination. But what I can tell His Majesty is that the seventh disciple of Bu Erdong is indeed alive."
His Majesty the Emperor was silent. He said with a smile: "At least, Li Daoling's sword is alive, it is not the worst thing for me."
Li Mengzhou realized that perhaps His Majesty the Emperor had misunderstood something, but he did not explain again, but said, "I also have something to ask His Majesty."
His Majesty the Emperor smiled and said, "You want to ask Han Yi about it?"
Li Mengzhou nodded.
His Majesty the Emperor said: "I sent Liu Feiyu to Beiyan to investigate secretly. Han Yi did appear in Beiyan territory. When I first learned about this, I did not notice the most critical issue. But if the demise of Buer Cave involves the quiet mountains and seas, and Han Yi's purpose of going to Beiyan was very clear, his goal must be Beiyan Dao Palace."
