Chapter 23: At a distance of one foot, which one is faster, the fist or my sword?
Gu Yuanqing could smell the strong smell of blood on the tip of his nose, and the world began to turn blood red. This was a five-sense illusion caused by murderous intent. It was similar to the murderous intent he felt in the trial realm, but it was more For strong.
"Exactly, the prince specially invited the juniors here for some reason?" Gu Yuanqing asked softly, with a calm expression.
"Being able to speak freely in front of my Seven Kills true meaning is different from what I knew before. It's a pity that the method of mind cannot be put on the table, and it will be difficult to achieve great results if the mind is not right." King Qing said.
Gu Yuanqing knew what he was talking about and couldn't quibble. He just raised his eyebrows slightly: "If the prince just wants to curse a few words, this junior can only accept it. He just called the junior here specially. The prince is a military god. It would be unavoidable." It’s a little too demeaning.”
"You are quite courageous. Is it because the grandmaster behind you gave you the confidence?"
"Don't you know what the prince's words mean?"
King Qing said coldly: " You are only one foot away from me now. If I want to kill you, even the master can't save you." As he spoke, Prince Qing's aura became stronger.
If it was more of a test just now, then Gu Yuanqing really felt that there was a crisis coming, and the hairs all over his body stood up, as if he would face the wrath of thunder at any time.
This was a murderous intention, indicating that King Qing really had the intention to kill him, but he was still testing something.
"My nephew, even after he became the emperor, he was still too soft-hearted and doted on Miaoxuan too much. Some secrets can only be kept by the dead." Prince Qing stood up slowly. He stood up with his body, the blood-red wave shadows rolled around his body, and it seemed vaguely that there were terrifying figures trying to escape from it.
"Does the prince really want to kill me?" Gu Yuanqing's expression was solemn. The Kunwu Sword had already flown from the back mountain, like a sharp arrow, heading straight to where Gu Yuanqing was.
"Don't blame me for bullying the small. All this is for the sake of the great power. Gu Yuanqing, you deserved to die!" As he spoke, he slapped his palm boldly.
Gu Yuanqing's figure retreated violently, and at the same time, the flying Kunwu sword suddenly accelerated, breaking through a sound barrier and passing through the courtyard.
"Huh? What is that?" The butler who was waiting outside noticed something strange and wanted to stop him with his sword, but he was too fast and did not have time to react. The sword light had already entered the courtyard. His expression changed drastically and he roared: "There is an assassin! Protect the prince!"
There was a commotion inside and outside the entire courtyard. Even though the people who entered the courtyard just now were servants and ordinary guards, in fact many of them were people under the command of King Qing who had followed through life and death and crawled out from the dead.
After this roar, almost everyone drew their weapons and gathered towards the lobby.
Bang! The door closes automatically.
"It's over, I'm fine!" Prince Qing's voice came from inside the house.
The butler asked again: "Your Majesty..."
"I said, everyone should disperse and do their own thing."
"Yes! I understand, I understand... Everyone, please disperse. Your Majesty is fine." The housekeeper glanced at the room worriedly.
In the lobby.
King Qing glanced at the hole in the roof, and then at the long sword suspended between his eyebrows. His pupils shrank and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
It would be fine if only the long sword flew over, but all the Gang Qi was sealed inside the body, and the true martial wonderland could not be manifested outside at all.
"Grandmaster, there really are masters and masters in Beiquan Mountain. No, not even ordinary masters. Ordinary masters will never be able to suppress themselves so easily, who were only one step away from the master realm. But such masters actually guard the place. Beside Gu Yuanqing."
King Qing stepped back half a step, cupped his hands around and said, "Why don't you show up to meet me, my great master? I just had a temptation, so please forgive me if I did anything inappropriate!"
Of course no one will answer.
Gu Yuanqing was silent for a moment. He had just guessed before, but now he understood that no matter last time or this time, no master would protect him on Beiquan Mountain. The reason for all this was just because of himself. . As the master of Beiquan Mountain, he is the master of Beiquan Mountain. In this mountain, he has supreme authority, and his will is the will of Beiquan Mountain.
If someone dares to attack him, and he feels the malice in them, he will naturally be rejected by this world. This is because Gu Yuanqing's foundation in Beiquan Mountain is still shallow, so he can only cut off the connection between these people and the world. If it takes a while, Japan is not just as simple as being suppressed.
Gu Yuanqing suddenly realized that he knew so little about everything he had. If King Qing hadn't taken action today, he would have discovered these things someday.
With a thought, the long sword that stopped between King Qing's eyebrows drew an arc and flew back in front of Yuan Qing. Then, it stopped quietly on top of Gu Yuanqing's head.
"Your Majesty, there is no need to shout anymore." Gu Yuanqing's tone was indifferent, as if he was not the one who experienced the moment of life and death just now.
The slap that King Qing just gave was a good test, but the murderous intention clearly told Gu Yuanqing that if no one intervened, he would not mind slapping him to death.
Prince Qing noticed the long sword staying at Gu Yuanqing's side, and an idea that he would never have thought of emerged in his mind.
"You..." No matter how absurd this idea is, the fact is right in front of you. No wonder you can't detect where the grandmaster is no matter what.
"Your Majesty, we are less than one foot apart now, but I don't know whether your fists and feet are faster or my sword is faster!" Gu Yuanqing returned the original words.
Qing Wang Li Cunguo felt that his energy was still suppressed, and looked at Gu Yuanqing with hidden horror. He suddenly smiled, opened his hands, and took a few steps back.
"But I misjudged it. I didn't expect that I would become a master at such a young age. I thought that I would be trapped in the ninth level of Zhenwu for twenty years and still couldn't make any progress. I could only watch my energy and blood decline. From then on, The peak has slipped, and there is no chance of breakthrough.”
And he was thinking in his heart: "No wonder something like this happened. The emperor just locked him up in Beiquan Mountain. No wonder my niece gave birth to that child. If Gu Yuanqing is a master at such a young age, then everything makes sense. Got it! "
A grandmaster is the pinnacle of power in a dynasty in the world. Having one more grandmaster is of great significance. The Daqian Dynasty has only three grandmasters, so it has to endure the disrespect of the sect at some point.
Two hundred years ago, the seven great masters of the Daqian Dynasty were all important ministers of the court or generals in the army. Which sect did not bow before the court?
Not to mention other things, the life span of a grandmaster is two hundred. If a young grandmaster makes further progress in his cultivation in the future, if he is willing to contribute to safeguarding the royal family of Daqian, it will be enough to protect Daqian for at least two hundred years!
Gu Yuanqing knew that he had been misunderstood, so naturally he would not explain it. He said calmly: "Your Majesty, you are too polite. If you hadn't fought on the battlefield and been seriously injured many times, I probably wouldn't have been able to stop you on your way to the Grandmaster level."
Prince Qing Li Cunguo's breath disappeared and he became rickety. He sat back in his seat and said with a smile: "If you don't have a breakthrough, you can't break through. There are so many what-ifs. Mr. Gu, please sit down. Come and watch the tea." . ”
The door was pushed open and got out. People came in and brought tea. The housekeeper came in and saw that King Qing was fine inside the house. He breathed a sigh of relief. Then he noticed the tiles on the ground, looked up and saw the big hole in the roof, and saw that there was something on the table next to Gu Yuanqing who had entered empty-handed. There was a long sword, and he was suddenly horrified.
He whispered a few words into King Qing's ear. King Qing nodded and waved for the butler to exit.
In a blink of an eye, there were only two people left in the room, but the atmosphere was completely different from before. All these changes were due to Gu Yuanqing's different strength.
King Qing seemed to have really become an old man. He only asked about trivial matters on the mountain. He occasionally mentioned the Gu family and looked at Gu Yuanqing, but he didn't seem too interested, so he started talking about Li Miaoxuan's childhood.
"Miaoxuan was also a child with a hard life. Her biological mother was seriously injured and could not recover, and eventually died of illness. She was only 3 years old at the time. The situation inside and outside the palace was unstable at that time. His Majesty was worried that his only daughter would have an accident. If not, he would not have treated her like this. Sent into the spirit since childhood "In the ruins gate."
Now that he was talking about Li Miaoxuan, Gu Yuanqing finally couldn't help but ask the question that had been waiting in his mind for several days: "Your Majesty, I heard that Princess Miaoxuan will have to wait a few days. Are you getting married?”
"It's a long story, but Mr. Gu, don't get me wrong, this Miaoxuan is not that Miaoxuan."
King Qing looked a little unnatural, and there was a trace of anger in his heart: "The emperor is so unbelievable. Me? If you tell me this As for me, how could I not know the importance of it and end up like this? Moreover, I didn’t tell Gu Yuanqing about this. If it was a misunderstanding, wouldn’t it be self-defeating? ”
