The Ancestral Temple Sacrifice was a grand ceremony of the royal family. It was very solemn. The Emperor was still young, so Prince Regent Wu Litian was the only one presiding over it.
Di Wei still stood with his hands behind his back. He looked at the sky and said calmly, "Prince Regent, please be patient. We need an explanation, but we need to wait for someone."
Wu Litian's face darkened. He was very unhappy and scolded, "Who are we waiting for? Is he going to be on the same level as me? "
An old voice came from the south of the Temple of Heaven. He laughed and said, "I'm the one waiting. I can't be on the same level as Prince Regent. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I deserve to die."
Wu Litian's face changed slightly. His irritable look disappeared. He quickly cupped his fist and bowed to the south. He said respectfully, "So it's the Headmaster. I apologize for what I said."
This time, even Di Wei turned around. He cupped his fist and said respectfully, "Thank you for your hard work."
An old man slowly walked up from the south. Although his hair and beard were all white, he was tall and thin. His body was strong and his smile was warm. He still looked dignified.
This was the Headmaster of Shuiqi Academy, Cangjian. There was another old man behind him. He looked gentle and honest with a serious face. He was the Vice Headmaster, Liang Jin.
Cangjian cupped his fist and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Di Wei said, "I invited you here in a hurry because the situation is urgent. We have no other choice."
Cangjian said, "It's okay. Please speak your mind."
Di Wei nodded. He cleared his mind and said, "Have you heard of 'Two Peaches Kill Three Warriors'?"
Wu Litian smiled and said, "Of course. It's about the founding Emperor of Cangnan, Su Feng. He plotted to kill his brothers, Meng Yulong, Tian Feizhou, and Guo Guang. Su Feng was vicious and despicable. He even killed the descendants of the three families. "
Cangjian said, "This happened thousands of years ago. Why do you mention it now?"
Di Wei said, "Do you know what the 'two peaches' that killed the three warriors was?"
Wu Litian frowned and said, "This' two peaches' is just a representation of benefits. Because there were three people and there were only two items, under the situation where they couldn't divide equally, it caused the three of them to drive a wedge between each other, thus they were all killed by Su Feng one by one."
Di Hui nodded and said, "Imperial Tutor's words are both right and wrong. What's right is that Su Feng used these two treasures to drive a wedge between the three of them. What was wrong was that the treasure was not a benefit, but a treasure that truly existed. However, Su Feng wasn't able to obtain these two treasures in the end. "
Wu Litian's face changed slightly. "Imperial Preceptor, could it be that you have news about those two treasures?"
Although Hidden Sword was also surprised, he was much calmer.
Di Jin said, "That's right. Otherwise, I wouldn't have dared to summon Your Highness during the sacrificial ceremony in the ancestral temple." He took out a piece of animal skin that was full of words and handed it to Hidden Sword. "Dean, please have a look."
Wu Litian glanced over, looking impatient. However, the Hidden Sword was of high status, so it was only right for him to take a look first.
Hidden Sword glanced at it and passed it to Liang Xu behind him. "Read it out."
Liang Xu took the animal skin. The skin was snow-white and smooth to the touch. The texture was very tough. Although it exuded an ancient aura, the words were very new. At first glance, one could tell that it was not an ordinary item.
He immediately read it out. There were hundreds of words in total. In the time it took to drink a cup of tea, he finished reading it.
Hidden Sword and Wu Litian were dumbfounded. The words on the animal skin were left by Tian Feizhou.
When Tian Feizhou was murdered, he did not die on the spot. He was also a master of the Origin Martial Arts Realm. He escaped all the way to the Eastern Thunder Country before he died. Before he died, he killed a demonic beast and wrote these words on the skin of the beast.
Wu Litian came back to his senses after a long while. He said in a daze, "So the rumors were all wrong. They actually found clues about the tomb of the Monster Emperor. This, this is too absurd! “
His words were full of disbelief, but his voice was trembling. Obviously, he was extremely excited and also a little scared.
Di Hui's face was still calm. He said, "What do you think, Dean?"
Hidden Sword stroked his white beard and said, "If it was an ordinary treasure, I would definitely not be interested. But it is related to the Monster Emperor. This is not ordinary. However, the authenticity of this item still needs to be examined. "
Wu Litian's face was flushed. He said excitedly, "It can't be wrong! It was written on the animal skin that the four of them did not find the tomb of the Monster Emperor, but found the Graveyard Guarding Ground. However, the Graveyard Guarding Ground was sealed by the Nine Dragons Locking Origin Formation and could not be broken. Later, Meng Yulong found a way to break it, but he had ulterior motives. He wanted to use the formation to kill them. After Su Feng saw through it, he was defeated and fled. "
Liang Xu nodded and continued, "Who knew that Su Feng was not a good person. He knew that breaking the Nine Dragons Locking Origin Formation required a large amount of Yang items. After killing fifty thousand men, the formation still could not be broken. So he thought of Tian Feizhou and Guo Guang. These two were at the peak of the Origin Martial Arts Realm. Their blood was worth tens of thousands of ordinary men. Su Feng wanted to use their blood as a sacrifice to the River of Forgetfulness. Guo Guang was tricked and killed, but Tian Feizhou escaped in the end. "
Hidden Sword looked dignified and said, "If a Graveyard Guarding Ground is so terrible, it might really be the tomb of the Monster Emperor! Don't forget, the northern part of the Xuanye Continent, where the five countries are located, was only a small part of the Wanyao Mountain a long time ago. From time to time, there would be the appearance of the Monster Emperor's Graveyard in the five countries. It is not surprising that the Graveyard of the Monster Emperor appeared. "
"Haha, God is helping me!"
Wu Litian suddenly clenched his fist and said excitedly, "If we can open the Graveyard of the Monster Emperor and get the item of the Monster Emperor, then our Eastern Thunder Country can unify the north and even extend our power to the central part."
Hidden Sword shook his head and said, "Prince Regent, don't be too optimistic. Su Feng and the other three were at the Origin Martial Arts Realm, but they could not even open a Graveyard Guarding Ground, let alone the Monster Emperor's resting place. Even if what is written on the animal skin is true, we should know our limits and take it easy. "
Wu Litian said, "Imperial Advisor, what do you think of this?"
Di Wei smiled faintly and said, "Of course it's good to have it, but it's okay if we don't have it. Don't have too much hope, just try your best."
Hidden Sword nodded with appreciation and said, "Imperial Advisor, I agree with you."
Di Wei said, "Dean, you look good this time. Are you going to break through the barrier?"
Wu Litian's face changed greatly. He was surprised and happy and said, "Teacher, you …"
Of course, he knew what Di Wei meant. If Hidden Sword could break through the Origin Martial Arts Realm, then the Shuiqi Academy could replace the Tiancong Academy and become the number one in the Northern Five Countries. The significance of this was immeasurable for the royal family of the Eastern Thunder Country.
Hidden Sword said with a smile, "I do have this plan, but I don't know if God will allow it."
