The assassination in Cui Wei City was quickly settled. After Zhou Peng cultivated in the Severing Sky Mountain, not only did his cultivation increase to the Yuan Dan Realm, but his combat prowess also increased.
His combat skills had also been honed to the point of perfection.
With his Yuan Dan Realm strength, he was almost invincible in the mortal world. The assassin in the clouds didn't even have time to escape before he was killed by Zhou Peng.
To be precise, Zhou Peng didn't kill him. The assassin saw that he had no way to escape and self-detonated.
Zhou Peng was also a little surprised by this. He didn't expect the assassin to be so decisive at this moment. It was obvious that the assassin was ordered by someone, and it was a death order.
After the assassin was dealt with, this matter spread across the world at the fastest speed.
Now, everyone in the world knows that Hai Xiaoyun was assassinated.
This matter began to spread rapidly and caused a sensation.
When the emperor heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahahaha, Hai Xiaoyun deserved it, he deserved it, he deserved it!"
"Old man, is Hai Xiaoyun dead? Did the assassin's arrow take his life? "
Jin Ziweng shook his head.
"I heard that the arrow didn't kill Hai Xiaoyun, but Hai Xiaoyun was seriously injured because of it."
When the Emperor heard this, he sighed.
"Ai, it's a pity that we couldn't kill Hai Xiaoyun, that little bastard."
"Old man, was this your doing?"
The emperor looked at Jin Ziweng and asked. He thought that the assassination of Hai Xiaoyun was done secretly by the prime minister.
The prime minister shook his head.
"It wasn't me, wasn't it Your Majesty who sent someone to do it?"
The prime minister thought that the emperor secretly sent someone to assassinate Hai Xiaoyun.
The emperor was dumbfounded.
"No, I didn't send anyone to assassinate Hai Xiaoyun. Didn't that kid have that Zhuo guy by his side? The previous assassin was already taken care of by Yiyi. What use would it be if I sent this assassin? "
The emperor's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Eh? Old man, how did the assassination succeed this time? Could it be that the Zhuo guy by Hai Xiaoyun's side is gone? "
The emperor guessed.
The old man frowned.
"It's possible."
"Doesn't that mean we can also send someone to assassinate Hai Xiaoyun?"
"No, Your Majesty!" Just as the emperor had this thought, the old man raised his hand to stop him.
"Your Majesty, we still don't know if that Zhuo fellow is by Hai Xiaoyun's side. If we send someone to assassinate Hai Xiaoyun in the painting, it is very likely that it will anger him. "
"Moreover, now that Hai Xiaoyun has been assassinated, more people will be sent to protect her in the future. It's almost impossible to kill her now."
"Therefore, I believe that we should bide our time and observe from the shadows. This old official believes that Hai Xiaoyun has provoked public anger, and there are already landowning households that are preparing to kill him. "
After the Prime Minister finished speaking, the Emperor stroked his chin and said.
"Old man, do you mean that this incident was caused by those slave masters?"
"That's right, that's a possibility. This old minister heard that Hai Xiaoyun still chose to release the slaves at her second stop, Cui Wei City. "
"This fellow is so stubborn. It's obvious that he has offended many people. He violated the interests of the slave owners, and I believe that the slave owners will never let him go. "
"So this assassination plan is most likely the actions of the slave masters."
The Emperor listened to the Prime Minister's words and felt that it was somewhat reasonable.
"So, we can just watch the fire burn across the river and watch Hai Xiaoyun court her own death?"
After the Emperor finished speaking, he couldn't help but laugh.
"Hahahaha, hahahaha! Old man, your second speech is to incite more slave masters. We need to take advantage of the situation and give him a heavy blow. "
The Emperor said.
The Prime Minister nodded and said.
"This old official has the same idea. Your Majesty, rest assured, this old official has a plan for the second speech. We can gain the trust of most of the slaves in the name of going against God. Then, we can use the name of nobility to win over the slave masters and landowning households. "
"With these two major forces in hand, this old official believes that just these two moves are enough to make Hai Xiaoyun court her own death."
The Prime Minister and the Emperor were happy. These two old foxes were scheming their sinister plan in the palace.
The assassination of Hai Xiaoyun was not only discussed in the imperial court.
It was also a hot topic among the people.
Many small taverns were talking about this matter after a meal.
"Hey, who do you think wants to murder Purple Marquis?"
Regarding this topic, everyone expressed their own opinions and opinions.
Some people said that it was done by landowning households.
"It should be the slave masters and landowning households who sent people to do it. Purple Marquis said that he wants to free the slaves. The people who hate him the most are undoubtedly these slave masters. "
Many people agreed with this statement.
However, there were also people who said that it was the Emperor.
"Is there a need to say that? I think it's most likely the Emperor who sent people to do it. After all, Hai Xiaoyun is the Emperor's biggest enemy. The Emperor can only sit on the throne if he gets rid of her. "
This statement also received a lot of responses.
"It's possible. The person who hates Purple Marquis the most in the world is the Emperor."
"After all, the Emperor is sitting on the throne steadily. Who would have thought that Purple Marquis would come out of nowhere and was arranged by the Great Gods to vote for him. Naturally, the Emperor would not be satisfied with this. So, it's very likely that the Emperor is the culprit. "
As for the mastermind behind the assassination, it was determined that it was the slave masters and the Emperor.
This result quickly spread to the world and began to develop in a strange direction.
… …
"Hahahaha, Brother Zhou, I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon after the academy. Come, let's have another toast."
In Cuiwei City's Yi Garden, Purple Marquis Hai Xiaoyun held a banquet to welcome Zhou Peng and the others.
If it was the Zhou Peng of the past, he might not even care about Hai Xiaoyun.
However, after the trip to the Severing Mountain, Zhou Peng was now used to interacting with people.
Moreover, this trip to the Ocean Dynasty to help Hai Xiaoyun was also entrusted by Zhuo Bufan.
This time, Zhou Peng didn't come alone. Nana and Ling Shuang also came.
Interestingly, the relationship between Nana, Ling Shuang, and Zhou Peng was very ambiguous.
This was mainly because Nana suddenly became a human.
Previously, Nana was just a puppet without any humanity, so she wanted to matchmake Ling Shuang and Zhou Peng.
However, Nana now had humanity and also the selfishness of humanity.
Nana also fell in love with Zhou Peng because of this.
Therefore, the relationship between the three of them was rather awkward.
Even so, Zhou Peng still brought the two of them to the Ocean Dynasty.
"I heard that Zhuo Bufan has already left. Do you know where he went?"
Zhou Peng originally came to see Zhuo Bufan, but he didn't know that Zhuo Bufan had already left.
After hearing this, Hai Xiaoyun quickly explained.
"Brother Zhuo seems to have something very important to do, so he left first."
Hai Xiaoyun didn't know where Zhuo Bufan went.
However, after listening to Hai Xiaoyun's explanation, Zhou Peng didn't continue to ask.
"I've accepted Zhuo Bufan's request and will try my best to ensure your safety. However, if the opponent is a Reverse God, I can't guarantee it. "
Zhuo Bufan had already told Zhou Peng the situation here in advance.
When Zhou Peng learned that the battle for the throne of the Ocean Dynasty was actually a battle between Zhuo Bufan and Against The Firmament, he was still a little worried.
After all, it was the Reverse God Against The Firmament. From a certain point of view, Zhou Peng and Against The Firmament might still be brothers in the future.
Zhou Peng naturally wouldn't be Against The Firmament's opponent. Therefore, if Against The Firmament really chose to attack, then Zhou Peng could only give up on Hai Xiaoyun.
"Brother Zhou, don't worry. The Reverse God and Brother Zhuo have an agreement. They won't attack. This war belongs to me and the Emperor. They just need the result. "
"Then, do you know the origin of the assassin today? Was he sent by the Emperor? "
After hearing this, Hai Xiaoyun slowly shook her head and said.
"I'm not sure, but it's also possible. After all, my declaration to free the slaves violated the interests of many people. "
"Then what are you going to do next?" Zhou Peng asked again.
After hearing this, Hai Xiaoyun twisted her shoulders and said.
"Maybe I won't be able to give a speech in person for a while, so I can only leave this matter to Second Father. However, I will go into the slave house and understand the lives of the slaves. "
"Brother Zhuo told me that only by becoming the hero of the slaves would I be able to win this battle. I have no doubts about this."
Zhou Peng nodded after hearing this.
"Well then, I will do my best to help you. Until that person comes back. "
After Zhou Peng finished speaking, he looked up at the stars and moon in the sky.
…
At this moment, at the Receiving Gate that was millions of miles away.
Under the arrangement of Shangguan Ziyi, Zhuo Bufan was assigned to one of the nine peaks, Lin Peak, and became the disciple of Red Butterfly Coat.
For Red Butterfly Coat, Zhuo Bufan naturally looked at her in a new light.
This woman seems unrestrained, but in fact, she has a sense of justice.
The reason why she made things difficult for her disciples was actually to protect them in some ways.
After all, once these ascenders reached the Sky Origin Realm, they would be sent to the laboratory to be experimented on.
According to the words of Yongye The Great of the Void Race, ascenders were the most outstanding geniuses of their respective worlds.
Each one of them was the most perfect vessel.
The Void Race didn't have a body. In order to break through to the Dao Origin Realm, they had to absorb the chaotic pure energy outside Daira.
As for the absorption method, it was to use the bodies of the ascenders as containers.
Zhuo Bufan naturally didn't forget this information.
After all, this was important information he collected after using a chance to be reborn.
Of course, Zhuo Bufan didn't come back just for revenge. He had more important things to do.
Therefore, he might be undercover in the Receiving Gate for a period of time.
In the face of Red Butterfly Coat's teasing, Zhuo Bufan didn't resist. Instead, he welcomed it.
"Little brother, you're really handsome. Do you want to be this sister's gigolo?"
A gigolo was a woman's male slave!
Previously, Zhuo Bufan had refused firmly. However, after seeing Red Butterfly Coat's true colors, Zhuo Bufan became indifferent this time.
"Ha ha, sister, you're so beautiful. You're like a fairy in the human world. Yifei will never forget you. I feel refreshed and happy."
In the face of Zhuo Bufan's counterattack, Red Butterfly Coat was stunned.
"You, you, listen carefully. Be my gigolo, my male slave!"
Zhuo Bufan chuckled.
"Isn't it just a gigolo? Why not? Sister, you don't know that I was in this line of work in my previous world. "
"Sister Dieyi, do you need me to serve you tonight?"
After saying that, Zhuo Bufan went up to Red Butterfly Coat.
When Red Butterfly Coat saw Zhuo Bufan rushing over, she quickly dodged to the side.
"Humph, shameless!"
"I overestimated you. I didn't expect you to be such a shameless man."
"Get out of here!"
In the face of Zhuo Bufan's attack, Red Butterfly Coat turned pale.
After all, this woman was just putting on an act. If she really acted shamelessly, she wouldn't dare to be so aggressive.
Just like a lion suddenly turned into a kitten, her momentum weakened.
Seeing this, Zhuo Bufan shrugged and smiled.
"Then I'll leave first. If sister needs me to serve you in bed, I'll be there at any time. Yifei's bedroom skills are even better. "
Zhuo Bufan continued shamelessly.
When Red Dieyi heard this, her cheeks were already flushed red.
"Stop talking and get out of here."
In the end, Red Butterfly Coat was defeated by Zhuo Bufan's shamelessness.
Seeing that Red Butterfly Coat was a little flustered and exasperated, Zhuo Bufan stopped teasing her and turned to leave the hall.
The attendant on the side took Zhuo Bufan to Green Lotus Residence in the small courtyard.
As soon as he arrived at Green Lotus Residence, Zhuo Bufan saw a man practicing swordsmanship in the side courtyard.
Zhuo Bufan looked at the man and his eyes lit up.
"Yu Ziji?"
Perhaps the man heard Zhuo Bufan's voice, he suddenly stopped practicing and turned to look at Zhuo Bufan.
The two looked at each other. Zhuo Bufan felt something was wrong and accidentally said something inexplicable.
"You just called me?"
Yu Ziji, the man who had helped Zhuo Bufan at the Receiving Gate.
Although he was Red Butterfly Coat's gigolo, he had been secretly helping Zhuo Bufan to leave the Receiving Gate.
However, in the end, he was torn to shreds by Shangguan Ziyi.
In some ways, Yu Ziji was the first friend that Zhuo Bufan made after coming to Daira.
Therefore, Zhuo Bufan would never forget this name.
However, after being reborn, it was impossible for Yu Ziji to know Zhuo Bufan.
Therefore, when Zhuo Bufan called out his name, Yu Ziji was obviously stunned.
Under the moonlight, Yu Ziji looked at Zhuo Bufan with an inexplicable sadness in his eyes.
Seeing this, Zhuo Bufan hurried forward and bowed with both hands.
"I'm Zhuo Yifei. I just came from the Lin Hall. Red Butterfly Coat, the Peak Master, told me about you. You should be my classmate, Yu Ziji! "
Yu Ziji chuckled after hearing this.
"I see. I was wondering how you knew me!"
"That's right. I'm Yu Ziji. Are you a new ascender?"
Yu Ziji was fair and tender. He was gentle and elegant. He was a very handsome man.
Seeing this, Zhuo Bufan replied.
"That's right. I was brought here as soon as I ascended to this world," said Ye Futian.
"Oh, it's been a long time since a new person came to our Receiving Gate. By the way, Brother Zhuo, why don't we have a drink? "
"I couldn't ask for more!"
Perhaps Yu Ziji simply wanted to get to know Zhuo Bufan.
However, in Zhuo Bufan's heart, there was a feeling of meeting an old friend.
Soon, Yu Ziji set up some wine in the pavilion in the courtyard. Then, he started drinking with Zhuo Bufan in the courtyard.
The two of them chatted as though they were old friends who had not seen each other for a long time. They raised their cups and looked at the moon, drinking and having fun.
