Da Qian's Taizong and Gaozong were actually assassinated! This could be said to be an earth-shattering secret, shocking Hong Yi so much that his head was buzzing. His thoughts were filled with fog and confusion.
Imperial power was supreme, and the Emperor controlled the universe. His words were like gold and jade, and his words were the law.
The security in the Imperial City was extremely tight, and it could be said that no one in the world could match it. Someone actually managed to sneak in and assassinate the Emperor? And he assassinated two of them at once! What kind of level had this divine art of stabbing people reached?
Hong Yi couldn't imagine it, and he shook his head. He felt that this matter wasn't something that he could interfere with, and it wasn't something that he could investigate now. He could only try to figure it out in his heart.
"Brother Chi, you recognized the Soul Breaking Arrow with one look, and felt the killing intent on the arrow. Could it be that you have cultivated Soul Dao techniques before? It seems to be very profound. "Hong Yi turned his head and asked Chi Zhuiyang.
"I have cultivated martial techniques, and not Dao techniques. I have never used my spirit to escape from my body." Chi Zhuiyang shook his head, "However, I know a lot about Dao techniques, and I have seen such Soul Breaking Arrows before. Moreover, my martial arts have reached the Xiantian Realm, and my spiritual senses have increased greatly. I can sense some sensitive things."
"I wonder if Brother Chi's martial arts have reached the pinnacle of the Xiantian Master level?" Hong Yi asked with interest.
When one's fist technique reached the pinnacle of the Xiantian Master level, that person's ability was extremely terrifying. If a Xiantian Master could fight one against ten, then the pinnacle of the Soul Breaking Arrow could fight one against a hundred!
"That's not true. To merge the spirit and body, the soul and spirit as one, requires great perseverance, wisdom and spirit. I have been a Xiantian Master for less than a year and I am only a middle Xiantian. It is extremely difficult to reach the peak. However, if it is a Dao technique expert who cultivates the soul, to break through Xiantian and enter the Grandmaster Realm is even more difficult. It is almost impossible. However, based on what I know, there are a few that I admire." Chi Zhuiyang shook his head.
When experts who cultivated Soul Breaking Arrow reached the Xiantian Realm, they wouldn't be able to merge Soul Breaking Arrow and Body, so it would be even more difficult to break through. If they weren't geniuses, or had good luck, or had spiritual medicine, they would stop at the Xiantian Realm.
Hong Yi also knew about this but he did not wish to discuss martial arts with Chi Zhuiyang as he had important matters to attend to.
"Brother Yi, what about this chest of treasure?" Chi Zhuiyang asked.
"Ten thousand taels of silver is the money to buy our lives. Mu The Younger, take it. The rest of the treasures are also ill-gotten gains, and they belong to the Crown Prince. Tie Zhu, in the past, the Crown Prince of your Shen Clan owed you a debt of blood. This chest of treasure is just a little bit of interest. I will take it first, and when the time is right, I will repay it with interest! "Hong Yi said coldly.
The Crown Prince's people slaughtered the people of the Shen Clan, turning them into bandits, and using human blood to soak their official hats. This kind of behavior was not tolerated by the heavens. Even if Hong Yi didn't rely on Prince Yu, he still had thoughts of seeking justice. Otherwise, he wouldn't have taken in Shen Tiezhu and Shen Tianyang.
"Good!" Shen Tiezhu roared.
"Brother Chi, I will give this bow and three arrows to you. Here, you have entered the Xiantian Realm, and your strength can pull Penetrating Rainbow. "Hong Yi picked up Penetrating Rainbow and handed it to Chi Zhuiyang.
"Give it to me?" Chi Zhuiyang stared blankly for a moment, then his eyes flashed with a pleasantly surprised light. He was one of Yun Meng's people, and was an expert in mounted archery. However, he didn't use a bow because he didn't have a suitable one. Yun Meng's best bow was the Ironwood Black Bone Bow, but for a Xiantian expert like him, it was a bit weak.
Although there were bows that surpassed the Ironwood Black Bone Bow in Yun Meng's Empire, they were all priceless treasures. They needed a master craftsman to make them, and they couldn't be mass-produced. It was also difficult for him to get his hands on one.
"Not bad, I will give it to you." Hong Yi changed the topic, "But I hope that in the future, when Yun Meng and Da Qian go to war, and Brother Chi joins the army, don't use this bow to kill my Da Qian people and soldiers. If this bow falls into Brother Chi's hands, I hope it is a bow of benevolence and righteousness, and not taint the innocent souls."
"Bow of benevolence and righteousness … I naturally won't do something like killing innocent people!" Chi Zhuiyang's expression turned serious, and he raised his palm, "If I use this bow to kill innocent people and soldiers, I will die with a thousand arrows piercing my heart."
"Good." Hong Yi clapped his hands and said, "Although Brother Chi is one of Yun Meng's men, he is courageous and brave, and is also a hero. A godly bow should be given to a hero, Penetrating Rainbow can be said to have an owner."
After this exchange, Hong Yi felt that the distance between him and Chi Zhuiyang had been pulled closer. In the past, Chi Zhuiyang was ordered by Murong Yan to protect him, but now, the two of them had truly become friends.
"Wrap these Pure Gold Seals, banknotes, and jewels tightly in a bag, and bring them along with us." Hong Yi ordered.
"Then what about these three people? Should we kill them? "Chi Zhuiyang asked.
"Your Excellency, don't kill us! You promised us that if we brought you to the stronghold, you would let us live! " The Black Sparrowhawk, Golden Sparrowhawk, and Silver Sparrowhawk hurriedly cried out. At this moment of life and death, they had no choice but to cry out in fear.
"That's right, I did say those words. Of course, I won't go back on my word! " Hong Yi took two steps forward, and thought for a moment, "But if I let you go now, it will bring me a lot of trouble."
"We will swear an oath not to speak of Your Excellency's matters. We will conceal our identities and find a way to live," Golden Sparrowhawk said.
"How can we live? In fact, if we don't complete our mission this time, the land and water routes won't let us go," Black Sparrowhawk suddenly said.
"Your Excellency, your subordinates are all righteous warriors. We don't have the qualifications to be your slaves, but we can be the slaves of your soldiers. In the Da Qian law, there are also armored people who can be slaves," Silver Sparrowhawk said.
"Fine, Brother Hong won't take you as a slave, but I will take you as my slaves. Along the way, I just happen to lack people to serve tea, wash clothes, and feed the horses. Your skills are not bad, I'll take you! On the prairie, I've subdued even the fiercest horse bandits, so I don't care about you little thieves. You can have evil thoughts, but don't blame me for making you wish you were dead! "Chi Zhuiyang suddenly said, his face cold and gloomy, causing people to tremble.
"It's naturally for the best if Brother Chi can subdue them!" Hong Yi nodded, "Get on the horses. We'll go to Mapletree Town today to rest, and tomorrow we'll rest for a day. These three days, we've been galloping too much. Even a thousand-li horse needs to rest. "
The group galloped away on horseback.
… …
In the south.
Shui Yang Province, the scenery was the most beautiful. On the top of Shui Yang Mountain, which faced the three hundred li Taichang Lake, there were many beautifully built pavilions. This was neither a temple nor a Daoist temple. Instead, it looked like a private manor.
At the bottom of the mountain, there were young sword-wielding disciples patrolling and guarding.
Suddenly, dozens of white carrier pigeons flew over from afar and landed on a pavilion.
A white hand, as fair as jade, reached out from the pavilion and casually grabbed a carrier pigeon, "The assassination mission in the thirteen provinces of the Central Province has not been completed?"
The owner of this hand, after reading the words on the carrier pigeon, said softly, and stood up.
