The night of Chinese New Year's Eve has finally arrived, on this day hundreds of families celebrate, family reunions, and endless fireworks light up the sky over the entire imperial capital.

Xiang Chi took the civil and military, the envoys of various countries, and the ladies in the palace on the Chengtian Gate, admiring the bright night sky.

However, on this day of celebration, there was a person who sat silently on a beach by the sea, only to see that the left side of his face was a little swollen, and there seemed to be blood stains on his nose.

"Little prince, what are you doing here?" Not long after, Yu Guang, the governor of the navy, came over with some concern.

Xiang Jie turned his head and said with a smile: "It's nothing, the barracks are too noisy, come out and blow the wind"

Hearing this, Yu Guang sat aside and said, "Little prince, do you still care about the words of the pirate today?"

"No," Xiang Jie immediately shook his head.

Yu Guang smiled and said: "Little prince, in fact, you have done a very good job, with your status, you can go to the imperial capital to enjoy the best life, but you are willing to be with the soldiers and are willing to fight for Da Chu."

Hearing this, Xiang Jie lowered his head a little ashamedly and said, "It's not that I don't go back, but I don't have the face to go back."

"No face" Yu Guang was stunned.

"After the nine-colored rainbow, almost all the members of the royal family have obtained supernatural powers, but I am the only one, nothing, today is just a pirate, I can't deal with it, if it weren't for you, I would probably be killed by that pirate" Xiang Jie's tone was a little depressed.

"Little prince, don't think so, this supernatural power is not invincible, and some of the generals with superb martial arts are much stronger than the supernatural powers, and there are also locking god stones?" Yu Guangdao.

"Dudu, don't comfort me, the so-called strong, that's because they are not familiar with the supernatural powers, and they have not undergone systematic training, but if they are on the same basis, ordinary generals are not the opponents of the supernatural powers at all, as for the lock god stone, it is only an auxiliary, and it is indeed not the key to determining victory."

Yu Guang's eyes froze, and he said: "Little prince, there are some things that cannot be forced, but they are the will of heaven."

"I know, but I'm just unwilling, why do my father, third brother, and fourth brother have it, but I don't have it, even if I give me one of the lowest-level beast powers, it's okay" Xiang Jie gritted his teeth and said.

"This kind of thing is originally one in ten thousand, and I have tens of millions of people in Dachu, but there are actually only those who have supernatural powers," Yu Guang said.

"But that's the difference between heaven and earth," Xiang Jie said gloomily.

Yu Guang was a little helpless suddenly, in fact, he had already seen that Xiang Jie had been under a lot of pressure recently, but this pressure was actually unnecessary, not to mention anything else, just say that Xiang Jie's identity as a royal family, no one dared to be disrespectful, the soldiers had already admired Xiang Jie from the bottom of their hearts for Xiang Jie's dignified prince to come to be a soldier, and the reason why this was so was more because of Xiang Jie's own arrogance in his heart, unwilling to be mediocre.

After the two were silent for a while, Xiang Jie smiled and said, "Dudu, you go back first!" I'm fine, today is the Chinese New Year, it's not appropriate for you to stay here with me alone"

Yu Guang nodded, and said softly: "Little prince, don't think too much, if you want to take a break, just tell me"

"Thank you, Governor," Xiang Jie said gratefully.

Soon after Yu Guang left, Xiang Jie lay on the ground, looking at the night sky, and muttered disdainfully: "If you don't give it, forget it, sooner or later, one day, I, Xiang Jie, have no magical powers, and I will still become a strong man and become the top general of Great Chu."

"Haha, this is estimated to be difficult" At this time, suddenly an old face full of wrinkles blocked Xiang Jie's sight.

Xiang Jie was immediately startled, quickly sat up, looked at the old man in front of him with wrinkled face, snow-white hair, skin and bones, and holding a cane, and said angrily: "What are you doing?" ”

"I'm sorry, I was passing by just now, and I was listening to the whisper of the little prince," the old man chuckled.

Xiang Jie gasped slightly, and said, "You old man, on Chinese New Year's Eve, you are not at home, why did you come here?"

"The old man has no family, and his descendants are not familiar with him, so he can only come out for a walk" The old man sat directly on the side, untied a gourd from his waist, and drank it in a big gulp.

Xiang Jie was stunned for a moment, looked at the old man who looked very lonely, and after searching his body for a while, he took out some broken silver and said, "Old man, Xiao Wang only has these on him, you take it back and do some New Year's goods!" ”

The old man turned his head to take a look, put down the gourd with a smile, and said, "Little Wangye, since the nine-colored rainbow, is your pressure very great?"

Xiang Jie's face moved, then he shook his head and smiled: "What pressure does Xiao Wang have, it's good to have no supernatural powers, and you can just go back to enjoy the glory and wealth in the future, do you know, Xiao Wang's wife was snatched from His Majesty's bowl, just this point, no one in the world can compare"

"Hahaha" Hearing this, the old man laughed loudly and said, "This is really powerful, but in this case, why doesn't the little prince go back!" It is estimated that the emperor is very lively today."

"That's because there are too many military affairs, so I withdrew flawlessly" Xiang Jie casually made up a reason.

The old man shook his head and said with some disappointment: "The little prince said this, but he is like Xiang Yu's descendant."

Xiang Jie's face was shocked, and he said seriously: "Who are you!" Dare to call Taizu by his name in front of Xiao Wang, do you know that this is a big taboo?"

"What's not to shout about, in front of him, I'm all shouting like that?" The old man said casually.

Xiang Jie's eyes froze, and he slowly stood up, his eyes gradually became cold, and a sense of arrogance, self-confidence, and majesty that only a royal family can have emerged.

"Old man, Xiao Wang looks at you pitifully and gives you gold and silver, but you are too presumptuous, how can Taizu allow you to insult"

Looking at Xiang Jie, who was already ready to start, the old man suddenly showed a hint of appreciation, nodded and said: "This is what it looks like, it is not in vain that I have come a long way from the imperial capital."

"Imperial Capital" Xiang Jie raised his eyebrows.

"Today's royal family, in the eyes of the old man, there are only two who have a chance, the first is naturally your royal brother, the current Emperor Xiang Chi of Great Chu, and the other is the prodigal son who came back and killed the enemy in the army."

"Although you are far worse than Xiang Chi, this is normal, our majesty is even more domineering than his Taizu, the momentum is so strong, across an imperial city, the old decay can feel it, his strength is already earth-shattering, far beyond the old decay"

Hearing this, Xiang Jie looked surprised and said, "Old man, who are you?" ”

The old man grinned and said, "I won't say the original name of the old man, but Xiang Yu gave the old man a title of a master in the world, have you heard of it?"

"What are you talking about" Xiang Jie couldn't believe it, and said angrily: "All the people in the world, Xiao Wang naturally knows that it is Taizu's best friend, a real person of Daomen, but that has already opened the country, counting the time, this Venerable Master is estimated to be more than one hundred and eighty years old."

"Haha, unfortunately, the old man just turned one hundred and eighty-five years old this year," the old man grinned.

"Impossible, this is absolutely impossible," Xiang Jie shook his head in disbelief.

"Little guy, there are nine-colored rainbows in the sky, what is it to be old and 185 years old," the old man said.

"But this, it's too hard to believe," Xiang Jie swallowed.

"Little guy, Lao Yu told you bluntly that the wife of the first generation of King Ning is the righteous daughter of Lao Yu, plus Lao Yu himself has feelings, and he will soon go to see Taizu, if it weren't for this, with your qualifications, Lao Yu would not have come over at all" The old man said solemnly.

"This" Xiang Jie was suddenly a little embarrassed.

"Now the old man asks you, do you want to become a top powerhouse without supernatural powers," the old man said seriously.

"Of course I want to," Xiang Jie nodded immediately.

"Okay, that old man will teach you the Qi Gathering Kaifa today," the old man's eyes suddenly became solemn.

"Qi Gathering Kaifa," Xiang Jie muttered.

"This method is after the nine-colored rainbow, the old decay created it with the help of supernatural powers, originally wanted to give it to the Chu Emperor, but he is too terrible, the old decay is afraid that once he touches him, he will never be able to go again, and it can only be regarded as the icing on the cake for him, but you are different, you need him" The old man said.

Xiang Jie's face suddenly showed a trace of excitement, and said, "Senior, this Qi Gathering Kaifa is really so powerful."

"Yes, but this Qi Gathering Kai Method is very difficult to cultivate, and to some extent, those who can learn it are as rare as those who have obtained supernatural powers," the old man said.

Xiang Jie was shocked, and then gritted his teeth and said: "No matter how difficult it is, the younger generation will never give up"

"Good," the old man smiled.
