The master often said: "Practice, the lower way cultivates the body, the middle way cultivates the spirit, and the upper way cultivates the mind." ”

Therefore, the disciples of the Dust Chopping Palace are far away from the world, self-cultivation, and many things in the red dust, which sound lively and lively, but in fact they are just passing by, and only by keeping the Heavenly Dao in their hearts and seeking with all their hearts can they ascend to that supreme realm.

Xu Yue has been by Meng Hangju's side since she can remember, and practicing is the only thing she can do and the only thing she wants to do.

Even among the disciple brothers, except for senior sister Wei Jinxiu, she rarely said half a word to others, which would delay the progress of her cultivation, and at the same time, in Xu Yue's opinion, it was okay not to say those words.

Meng Hangju said that she was the most talented disciple he had received in the past hundred years, except for Wei Jinxiu.

She will have great achievements, and she will touch the realm that others can't even touch.

Xu Yue was convinced of this, and he also practiced in the palace wholeheartedly.

Until half a year ago, during a teaching, Meng Hangju's face suddenly turned blank and he fainted with blood in his mouth.

And after waking up again, Meng Hanghu said that he felt the way of heaven, realized in his heart, and wanted to retreat and practice, and handed over the position of the palace master of the Dust Slaying Divine Palace to Xu Yue.

Xu Yue could not shirk his master's order, so he could only agree to this matter.

But the matter of taking over as the palace master of the Dust Chopping Palace is far from being as simple as it seems, Da Chu as the palace master of the northern realm, except for the Weishui Divine Kingdom and the Tianque Realm, the alternation of rights in any sect or kingdom needs to be recognized by the Great Chu Royal Court, although the Great Chu Royal Court rarely interferes with or criticizes the alternation of these rights, but the scene is inevitable, so as to show his identity as the co-master of the northern realm of Great Chu.

Xu Yue came here for this purpose. The whole process was not cumbersome, and the Great Chu Royal Court also treated her very favorably. Whether it is food, clothing, housing, transportation, or attacking the saint, it is extremely smooth, but Xu Yue still doesn't like this lively and lively fireworks in the world, feels noisy, and feels that it is not helpful for cultivation.

Her original intention was that after submitting the paperwork, she rushed back to the sect as soon as possible and continued to practice.

But Emperor Chu was extremely enthusiastic, saying that there was a big event announced in Dachu at today's luncheon, and Xu Yue had to be left to eat this luncheon. Although Xu Yue was not interested in this worldly matter, he couldn't resist Emperor Chu's enthusiasm after all, and when he was leaving, his master repeatedly told him not to annoy Da Chu, so he agreed.

Speaking of which, Emperor Chu still attaches great importance to her, or the Guiyuan Palace behind her, and at such an important luncheon, Xu Yue was arranged in an extremely high seat.

When she sat down, after hearing her status as the next person of the Dust Slashing Divine Palace, there was no shortage of people from the rivers and lakes or famous and powerful people who wanted to come to get acquainted. Xu Yue was bored with this kind of interpersonal communication, but he had to reluctantly cope with it.

The situation did not improve until the arrival of a teenager.

It was an extremely unfamiliar face to Da Chu, who didn't look very old, but he was only seventeen or eighteen years old.

And he was arranged in the first seat on the right, and for a while, everyone who wanted to befriend Xu Yue began to whisper, asking what the identity of the young man who sat in the first seat in this luncheon was.

The people present here are either the magnates in the Great Chu King City, or the heads of various sects, and they are well-informed. After some mutual inquiry, the identity of the young man gradually surfaced - Wei Lai, the grandson of the lion Jiang Huanshui in the north, the new King of Wei in Ningzhou, is now Yan

The court's henchmen are also a rare young hero in the north over the years.

Hearing that the eldest princess went to Ningzhou and encountered the calculations of the wicked, it was this King of Wei who stepped forward and got off the eldest princess.

And Emperor Chu has always loved his sister, since the King of Wei saved Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, it is reasonable for Emperor Chu to invite him to take a seat.

Everyone did not shy away from talking about it, and Xu Yue also listened to it.

She didn't care who Wei Lai was, but after hearing that the other party was Jiang Huanshui's grandson, Xu Yue couldn't help but cast a gaze at the other party - she remembered it well, her master had chanted the name Jiang Huanshui that day before he fell into a coma, and it was also on that day that the news of Jiang Huanshui's death spread all over the country.

She looked at the other party, and coincidentally, the other party looked at her at that time.

The eyes of the two met, and Xu Yue was a little surprised.

She was sure she had never met this person, but the other person looked at her strangely, as if they had known each other for a long, long time.

Xu Yue was a little confused, she subconsciously withdrew her gaze and didn't look at the other party, but the other party's gaze still fell on her.

Could it be that Jiang Huanshui really has a grudge against his master?

Xu Yue thought secretly in his heart, but at this time, the Chu Emperor sitting on the high platform suddenly said, "Everyone, please take a seat!"

Emperor Chu's voice was loud, and Wei Lai, who was immersed in shock, trembled when he heard this, and came back to his senses.

He sat down, withdrew his gaze, and turned to look at the emperor who ruled the north.

He was young, younger than Wei Lai had imagined.

In fact, this is expected, after all, Li Chenghuang and Li Chengfeng are twin brothers and sisters, but it is still hard to believe that an emperor who rules the north will be a young man who looks less than twenty.

He was born handsome, his eyebrows and eyes were seven or eight points similar to Li Chenghuang, and when he caught a glimpse of Wei Lai's gaze, he smiled and nodded towards Wei Lai, with kindness in his eyes. And Li Chenghuang, who was standing beside him, glared at Wei Lai fiercely, seemingly blaming, but in fact it was more like hiding his shyness.

At that time, the main hall also stopped whispering, and they all looked sideways at the king on the high platform.

Li Chengfeng raised the wine bottle in his hand and said to everyone: "Today is full of friends, I am very relieved, come, this cup, I respect all of you!"

Li Chengfeng got up, raised his head and drank the wine in the cup.

Seeing this, the crowd hurriedly shouted long live, and at the same time drank all the wine in their cups.

Li Chengfeng laughed heartily and said: "I know that all of you have come all the way to Dachu, and you all have important things, and there are many people who are in a hurry to go back to recover their lives. ”

"Your Majesty's banquet is a great blessing for us, how can Your Majesty talk about being cheeky?" At this time, a sturdy man suddenly got up and spoke, his muscles bulging up and down, and the murderous aura that inadvertently permeated his body made Wei Lai a little frightened.

"General Bei's speech is biased, after all, the northern territory is vast, and some friends have been in Tianxiong City for a long time. Li Chengfeng said with a smile.

When the northern general heard this, he didn't care, and he smiled and said, "Then Your Majesty will talk about the great joy of that day."

Thing. ”

"I believe that the things that can make Your Majesty so happy must be enough to make our northern world celebrate together, everyone here listened to it, and felt some of Your Majesty's joy, and it is estimated that you are in love with home, and you will not be in a hurry at this time. ”

The smile on Li Chengfeng's face became brighter and brighter, and he glanced at Wei Lai intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "You also know that my imperial sister lobbied me to go to Ningzhou a few days ago. ”

"Everyone also knows that the character of our eldest princess, this northern border, says that I am the palace master, but she is my master, I can't resist her, so I sent the general Ma Yuanting to accompany her. Coupled with the secret guards, I thought there would be no mistakes in this trip, so I should let her go out for a walk and relax. ”

"But who would have thought that Ma Yuanting ate me Chu Lu, but he had evil intentions, colluded with foreign enemies, and almost killed my sister. ”

As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone present couldn't help but change, most of them had heard the news of Li Chenghuang's assassination in Ningzhou, but he didn't think about it, it was actually led by the general of Da Chu.

There is a saying that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, but Li Chengfeng told such a thing in front of so many people, which made everyone feel that Li Chengfeng was killing chickens and monkeys, or knocking on mountains and shocking tigers.

After all, there are such people from all the forces in the northern territory who are present, and there will really be people who have something to do with the organization that assassinated Li Chenghuang.

"This matter, I Da Chu will definitely investigate to the end, if you have any clues about this matter, don't forget to show the widow, the widow has its own reward. And Li Chengfeng's next words also confirmed everyone's speculation very well.

The northern general was also a little embarrassed when he heard this, he smiled, and then said again: "What about Your Majesty's so-called happy event?"

Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "My sister's trip to Ningzhou this time is indeed very dangerous, but fortunately, His Royal Highness the King of Wei has protected me with death, which can protect my sister." ”

As he spoke, Li Chengfeng stretched out his hand and pointed to Wei Lai, who was sitting on the first seat, and continued.

"King Wei! King Wei of Ningzhou!"

"The grandson of the northern lion Jiang Huanshui!"

"You have more or less heard of the deeds of this young hero, I have never met him, but I have been fascinated for a long time, and it is just by this incident that I invited him to Dachu and listed him as a guest. ”

Everyone who was already full of curiosity about Wei Lai looked at Wei Lai sideways at that time, and became the focus of everyone for a while, although Wei Lai was not too uncomfortable, but after all, he didn't know how to respond, so he could only sit in place, not feeling everyone's gaze.

At this time, another old man in a Confucian shirt got up and asked: "His Royal Highness King Wei, a young hero, quite a lion's style, I have already heard of it, His Royal Highness the King of Wei rescued the eldest princess, and my Da Chu should naturally treat him with courtesy." But forgive the old minister's ignorance, what does this have to do with the great joy that Your Majesty said? I also ask Your Majesty to make it clear, so that I can be touched by Your Majesty's joy. ”

The atmosphere that had been heavy because of the topic of Li Chenghuang's assassination became relaxed again with the old man's words, and someone in the crowd immediately urged Li Chengfeng to get up.

Li Chengfeng was not annoyed, he squinted at Wei Lai, and said with a smile: "This great happy event is related to His Royal Highness King Wei. ”

"I think it's better to ask His Royal Highness King Wei to come and say it in person......"

"It's better. ”
