Even though he was lectured by Tong Lan again about why the flowers were so red, he was still delighted.
After all, it was one's own strength. The feeling of being stronger than before and being filled with power still filled one with joy.
To be honest, stepping into the Man Wheel level was only the beginning.
It had only been six months since he came to this world. To be able to reach this level was already enough to make him happy and a little proud. He was indeed a talent. In just over six months, he had already reached the Man Wheel level without any foundation.
After careful calculation, he realized that he had only been cultivating for four months at most.
Only one in a thousand practitioners could attain the Man Wheel level?
This was the difference between geniuses and mortals.
Furthermore, if he reached the Man Wheel level before Dayao's New Year, it wouldn't be too embarrassing for him to participate in the lantern-grabbing contest.
Ren Baqian hummed a tune as he arrived at Yangxin Palace Hall. He then heard a cold snort and a voice full of murderous intent. "He's courting death! Find out where he is. "
When Ren Baqian entered Yangxin Palace Hall, he saw two tall and sturdy men wearing leather armor. The leather armor looked a little old and there were traces of swords and knives on it.
"You guys can leave first. Find him!" the Water Empress said coldly.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" The two of them cupped their hands in greeting before turning around and leaving. However, their expressions were somewhat troubled. It would not be easy to find an expert like Lu Pinghai. If he was in Dayao, it would be easy to find him. However, the other party's main activity area was in Great Xia, and it was extremely difficult to find him.
When they turned around, Ren Baqian realized that they were twins. If he remembered correctly, they should be from the Protectorate of the North. He had seen them from afar in Ping City.
After the two left, Ren Baqian stepped forward and asked, "Your Majesty, why are you so angry?"
"I'm looking for Lu Pinghai to exchange for something. I'll even let him ask for anything he wants. As long as it's not too much, I'll agree. However, he thinks too highly of himself and actually rejected me. "The empress was still angry.
Ren Baqian smiled bitterly. This seemed to be normal.
However, this wasn't normal in the eyes of the empress.
The name Lu Pinghai sounded familiar. Ren Baqian thought about it carefully and realized that he was the eighth most powerful expert in the world. He had done some homework these few days.
"Is it very important?" Ren Baqian probed. The empress was so angry, and her target was the eighth most powerful expert in the world. Presumably, the item was very important.
"You can say that!" the Water Empress replied. The Spirit Yuan Pill was of no use to her and was completely for Ren Baqian.
At that time, because Ren Baqian's physical foundation was too weak, he could only cultivate [Ruyi Visualization]. Therefore, she asked Hong Wu to send someone to look for Lu Pinghai to exchange for a Spirit Yuan Pill that could supplement his physical foundation and increase his cultivation speed with the remaining medicinal power.
However, Ren Baqian actually smoothly reached the most important threshold of [Ruyi Visualization] and attained the Man Wheel level within a few months. Furthermore, this [Ruyi Visualization] did have some tricks up its sleeves. It was able to strengthen a person's foundation with such a poor foundation and allow him to enter the Man Wheel level steadily.
It was just that the consumption was a little too high.
However, whether the elixir was useful or not was one thing, and whether Lu Pinghai would give it to him or not was another matter. She was still quite angry at Lu Pinghai for rejecting her. This was her personality. She had given her conditions, and as long as it wasn't too much, she would agree to it. If you refuse me, I will beat you to death.
"That Lu Pinghai really doesn't know how to appreciate favors. As long as we find him, throw a bottle of sarin gas at him and bring back the things he has on him. "Ren Baqian acted like an incompetent advisor.
No matter which side he was on, he was definitely on the empress's side.
He just had to remember two things. First, the empress was always right.
Second, please refer to the first thing.
The empress felt very gratified after listening to his words.
"He relied on the fact that even if someone found him, he would be long gone by the time I arrived. No one else could keep up with his speed. Otherwise, I will meet him personally and see what else he has to say before he dies. " The empress was a little annoyed. Even though she had asked the two brothers to investigate, she knew that it wasn't very meaningful.
Ren Baqian thought for a while. Without satellites, it wasn't very realistic to use a tracking device. There was no other way.
"He doesn't have a fixed place?" Ren Baqian asked curiously.
"His whereabouts have always been secretive. He only goes to a fishing village in the East Sea for a few days at the end of November every year."
"That's hard to say. When he goes there again next year, we can just wait there."
The empress nodded her head slightly. Her current goal had already changed. Previously, her goal was to obtain the Spirit Yuan Pill. Now, her goal was to kill Lu Pinghai.
Since this was the case, there was no harm in letting him live for another year.
"Do you have any candidates for the lantern-grabbing contest?" The empress changed the topic and asked. She really wanted to see how Ren Baqian would perform.
"Can't we just choose a few young imperial guards from the palace?" Ren Baqian asked in reply.
"I'm afraid we can't find nine people below the age of 25 in the palace," the empress said. There were very few new imperial guards in the palace. Most of them were left behind by the previous emperor. Over the years, there were very few replacements.
"Eh?" Ren Baqian was stunned and his eyes widened. He really didn't expect this problem. He actually couldn't even find nine people below the age of 25 in the palace.
"Go and ask Xin Zhe how many imperial guards are below the age of 25 in the palace!" the empress instructed someone behind her. Qing Yuan hurriedly left the hall.
After a while, Qing Yuan returned and said to the empress, "Your Majesty, there are three!"
The empress turned to Ren Baqian and said, "You are still short of six people. Think of a way yourself."
Ren Baqian scratched his head. It was easy to find people because there were so many of them on the streets. However, he couldn't possibly find a few ordinary people to make up the numbers, right? It wouldn't look good on him.
Even though he didn't want to win the championship, he couldn't be too embarrassing.
It seemed like he had to look for reinforcements.
Ren Baqian pondered for a while. He was more familiar with the people in the Ministry of Works. It was better to seek help from that old man, Tong Zhengye.
He brought the imperial guards out of the palace and went straight to the Ministry of Works. Only then did he find out that the Ministry of Works didn't have much to do as it was nearing the end of the year. Tong Zhengye had already returned home.
Ren Baqian hurriedly brought his men to the Tong residence. After explaining the purpose of his visit to the gatekeeper, he waited outside.
After the time it took to burn two incense sticks, Ren Baqian was finally brought in.
Just a few steps into the door, he saw a little Lolita in white jumping out with a female guard following behind her.
"Eh, good-for-nothing, why are you here?" The little Lolita was very surprised.
"In view of the inhumane things that you have done to me, I'm going to deduct the 3,000 taels of silver that I owe your family as compensation for your mental distress. Out of morality, I'm here to inform your grandfather. "Ren Baqian had a look of" you are the main culprit "on his face.
It's fine if you call me good-for-nothing in the palace. Seeing that you are still a child, I won't lower myself to your level. You still dare to call me that outside? Where can I put my face?
"I specially asked my grandfather and he said that you have given him the money you owe." The little Lolita raised her head and looked at him with disdain. "If he didn't give me the money, I still have to beat him up. Grandfather said that if you don't give me the money, I will beat you to death. "
"I heard that you are going to learn from me in half a month? Heaven and Earth are the basis of life; the ancestors are the basis of life; the ruler and the teacher are the basis of governance. Remember to respect your teacher! "Ren Baqian's face changed into a patient and patient expression.
Tong Lan blinked her eyes and looked at him blankly. "What are you talking about?"
"A teacher for a day, a father for life! Just remember this. "
"I would like to have another son, but I'm afraid that Her Majesty won't agree!" The voice of the old man, Tong Zhengye, sounded faintly from the side.
Ren Baqian wanted to curse, "Damn it!"
He had forgotten about this.
