Three days later, the group returned to the shore of the East China Sea, this time, the process of welcoming Xie Xun back was very smooth, and there were no twists and turns like in the original book, and there were still nearly two months before the agreed March period.

"Sect Master, I just got the news that the four major factions such as Shaolin and Wudang have made a bad plot by the imperial court on the way to Dadu and have suffered heavy losses." As soon as he returned to the East China Sea, he was rewarded by the disciples of the Ming Sect.

"Got it." Zhuo Ao nodded, although from the beginning, he didn't have too high expectations for these sects, but he didn't expect it to be so bad.

"Among the six major factions, Emei and Huashan have existed in name only, and now the four major factions have been plotted again, and their strength has been greatly damaged, and it is difficult to play a role in containing the Mongols, I am afraid that the Mongols will focus their energy on my Mingjiao." Yang Xiao frowned and said, "Sect Master, should we rush back to the Bright Peak immediately and start an incident in advance?" Yang Xiao came to Zhuo Ao's side and frowned.

The pattern of rivers and lakes can affect the general trend of the world, even in the martial arts world, it will only appear in this specific era.

pinched his eyebrows, the incident was planned by them for a year, and there were countless plans among them, and it was also the most perfect, and the hasty incident would disrupt the steps of the Mingjiao and bring many uncontrollable consequences, which was by no means the result that Zhuo Ao wanted, but if it was not launched immediately, then next, the Mingjiao would likely face the siege of the imperial court.

Although the six major factions are also a force, but compared to Mingjiao, the six major factions that were disabled obviously cannot be compared with the behemoth of Mingjiao, Zhuo Ao even believes that Zhao Min must have spent a lot of thought for today's situation, once it is operational, Mingjiao may not even have a chance to breathe, the dilemma of choice, whether it is an incident or not, is not a good thing for Mingjiao, to turn things around? Zhuo Ao is not a wise and almost demonic character, he can't do it.

And even if the uprising is successful, the imperial court only needs to lock a few key roads into Shu, and it can trap Mingjiao in Shu, Shu is difficult, even if he is as wise as Zhuge Liang, he has worked hard for the great cause of the Northern Expedition all his life, and he is not the same as being trapped and dying in Shu? Even if the world is in turmoil outside in the end, and the Mongols have no time to continue to manage the Ming Sect, when the Ming Sect comes out of Shu, the general trend of the world may have been decided, and then it will not be to drive out the Tartars, but to fight for hegemony among the princes, then there will be nothing to do with him.

"The plan remains the same, let's go to Dadu and kill the Dog Emperor, as long as the Mongol Emperor dies, the Mongols will inevitably fall into the internal friction of fighting for power and profit!" Zhuo Ao said in a deep voice.

"It's just that most of them are Mongol capitals, and they are heavily garrisoned, so how easy is it to kill the emperor?" Yang Xiao and the others were shocked, for a hundred years, not no one wanted to assassinate the Mongolian emperor, but the Mongolian soldiers were fierce, and they recruited many masters of the rivers and lakes, and those who went to assassinate were all gone.

"As long as I can sneak into the palace, I am ninety percent sure that I can assassinate the emperor!" Zhuo Ao turned his head and looked at everyone: "This matter can be done by one person, you can rush back to Guangming Ding immediately, pass on my order, once the news of the emperor's death comes, immediately send troops!" ”

"Sect Master, this matter is full of dangers, the Sect Master is the future of the Ming Sect, so let's go." Everyone couldn't help but be shocked when they heard this, and hurriedly dissuaded.

Zhuo Ao smiled slightly, didn't say much, directly took out the invisible cloak and draped it on his body, and disappeared in the surprised eyes of everyone.

"This ......" everyone was stunned.

"Everyone's kindness, Zhuo Ao's heart, but this matter is related to my Mingjiao's hundred-year plan, there must be no mistakes, if it is not a last resort, this seat does not want to take this risk! Yang Xiao and Bat King, you two don't have to go back to Guangmingding, go directly to Jingxiang, preside over the sect, and immediately prepare to take the army called out of Sichuan and occupy the land of Jingxiang! Zhuo Ao said in a deep voice.

First take Shuzhong, then take Jingxiang, divide Mongolia into two, and then gradually encroach on the land of Jiangdong, and lay the foundation of hegemony, which is the general policy summarized by Mingjiao after continuous improvement in the past year.

Seeing that Zhuo Ao had such a strange thing, coupled with Zhuo Ao's skills, everyone no longer persuaded him, and after bowing down to receive the order, he quickly left in Xiao Zhao's reluctant gaze.

After everyone left, Zhuo Ao did not choose to rush with horses or light skills this time, but directly took the bamboo dragonfly, flying all the way to the north, he wanted to grab time with the imperial court, and strive to kill the Mongolian emperor before Zhao Min had the next move, in that way, no matter what conspiracy Zhao Min had against Mingjiao, it was useless, and this was the only way Zhuo Ao could think of at present.

The bamboo dragonfly was completely let go, the speed was about 800 kilometers per hour, and it arrived in less than half a day from the East China Sea to Dadu, without removing the invisible cloak, Zhuo Ao flew directly into the palace.

Assassinating the Mongolian emperor may be difficult for others, but for Zhuo Ao, it is very simple, you only need to find the emperor's location, and then come to that knife, and then retreat, those masters in the palace, with Zhuo Ao's cultivation and the help of the invisible cloak, can break through silently.

When Zhuo Ao arrived at the palace, the Mongolian emperor was praising Zhao Min in the main hall, this time the six major factions were almost completely annihilated, so that the vitality of the Han people's martial arts was greatly damaged, and the troops that suppressed the rebels in various places were progressing more smoothly, as Zhao Min who single-handedly contributed to this matter, the emperor did not hesitate to praise, at this moment Zhao Min was not in the capital, and was preparing to further uproot the opposition forces on the rivers and lakes, and all rewards were accepted by the king of Ruyang.

Maybe I haven't been so happy for a long time, the ministers are also congratulating, the atmosphere in the court is warm, a sharp sound of breaking the air, at this moment, everyone subconsciously looked back, and what they saw was just a ray of cold light, and then, the hall was silent, only the sound of blood splashing filled the original glorious and solemn hall with a strange and terrifying atmosphere, and the originally lively court hall became silent in an instant, only the sound of a corpse falling to the ground.

Under the cover of the invisible cloak, Zhuo Ao was very satisfied with his own handful of cards, and he brought the entire Mongolian court and the emperor to a pot of civil and military affairs, so that Mongolia should be in chaos for a while.

Zhuo Ao shot too fast, and ended too quickly, when the palace guards felt that something was wrong and broke into the palace, Zhuo Ao was already thousands of miles away.

Ten days later, at the foot of Wudang Mountain, when he was about to command the army to attack Wudang and uproot the martial arts master who occupied a heavy position in the rivers and lakes, he suddenly received an 800-mile rush from the capital.

"What?" Zhao Min looked at the urgent secret letter in his hand and stood up suddenly, with an incredible look in his eyes.

"Sovereign, what's wrong?" The second elder of Xuan Ming stepped forward and looked at Zhao Min suspiciously.

"Nothing!" Zhao Min took a deep breath, glanced at Wudang Mountain, hesitated for a moment and said, "Pass the order and withdraw the troops!" ”

The emperor, together with the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces were killed at the court meeting, and even the palace guards didn't even see the shadow of the opponent, Zhao Min really hoped that this was a big joke, someone was joking with herself, but she knew better that no one dared to make this kind of joke with herself, the top priority at present was to stabilize the morale of the army first, and then meet with his brother Wang Baobao as soon as possible, go north and return to Beijing, try to control the capital area in his own hands before the world is completely chaotic, as for the martial arts, rivers and lakes, now I can't care so much.

"Yes." I was puzzled, but no one dared to ask.

On Wudang Mountain, Zhang Wuji, who was observing the enemy's situation, looked at the Mongolian army that was originally preparing to attack, and suddenly began to retreat, and couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly told Zhang Sanfeng the news.

"The sudden withdrawal of the Mongolian army will inevitably cause something big to happen, Wuji, you immediately send some shrewd disciples down the mountain to find out, what happened?" Zhang Sanfeng also looked puzzled.

"Yes, Master." Zhang Wuji nodded, the rescue half a month ago finally ended in failure, the six major factions were almost wiped out, Wudang from Song Yuanqiao below, almost all of them were lost in that battle, Zhang Wuji luckily rescued Zhou Zhiruo and Mo Shenggu, all the way back to Wudang, now Wudang Mountain, the second generation of disciples is almost dead, Mo Shenggu was also seriously injured in that battle, and now he is still recuperating, among the three generations of disciples, Song Qingshu also died in that battle with Song Yuanqiao, in addition to Zhang Sanfeng and Mo Shenggu, only Zhang Wuji is better, provoked the girders.

"Alas!" Looking at the back of Zhang Wuji's departure, Zhang Sanfeng sighed lightly, Wudang was built by him, and now seeing that Wudang is in a big disaster, it is false to say that he is not sad, but Zhang Sanfeng is now 100 years old and has experienced too much in his life, and now the second generation of Wudang disciples is almost wiped out, and the third generation of disciples has not grown up, so he can only stand up and preside over the overall situation.

A day later, Zhang Wuji came back with two disciples, and said with excitement on his face: "Master, Mongolia is over." ”

"What?" Zhang Sanfeng looked at Zhang Wuji puzzled.

"Half a month ago, above the court meeting, someone secretly sneaked into the main hall, silently, killed the emperor and the Manchu civil and military, now, the Mongols have taken care of themselves, and the Mongolian generals around the country began to fight for power and profit, and there was a lot of trouble."

"Who has such a great ability?" Zhang Sanfeng was surprised, it was the palace of the imperial court, not to mention that it was heavily guarded, even those masters hidden in the palace were not sure to break in, not to mention that he had to kill the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, even if he really did it, he didn't want to come out alive.

"I don't know." Zhang Wuji shook his head, also a little dazed: "Master, do you say it will be Master Zhuo?" ”

"Who knows?" Zhang Sanfeng shook his head, this kind of thing, even Zhuo Ao can't do it.

"Wuji, look at it, it won't be long before the truth of the matter will be revealed, and all Wudang disciples will be informed that during this time, they will all stay in Wudang, and no one will be allowed to go down the mountain without permission."

"Yes."
