The heavy rain drifted, and the atmosphere in the entire Haoyue City looked extremely weird. No one understands why all the contradictions suddenly broke out, and there would be someone who couldn't bear to assassinate Lin Qiping. Even the other families of the Nine Gates of Jianghu who rushed over to support were complaining about why the people of the Wu family were so uncomposed.

The people of the Wu family are speechless, and no one will believe them no matter what they say. The people of the Wu family firmly believe that this is a deliberately set up by Lin Qiping himself, in order to eradicate dissidents. The Wu family analyzed that Lin Qiping was not assassinated at all, it was he who killed those black-robed Taoists and then blamed the Wu family. After such an analysis, those families who did not believe in him before felt that it made sense. In short, it's a mess, and no one knows what's going to happen next.

Fortunately, the national teacher stepped forward. The voice came ethereally, but no one dared to resist.

Lin Qiping returned to the palace with a gloomy face, and then went outside the dungeon not very willingly. Before he entered the door, he heard the cold voice of the national teacher inside.

"Get on your knees. ”

Lin Qiping was stunned, and for the first time, he didn't kneel down immediately, but raised his chin slightly and looked into the underground palace and asked, "Why?"

"Huh?"

The national teacher hummed suspiciously, as if he didn't expect Lin Qiping to have such an attitude. In front of him, Lin Qiping had never resisted so blatantly. Therefore, the national teacher has always thought that Lin Qiping is a smart person, a smart person who knows when to bend down and when to put down his dignity. Today, however, Lin Qiping seems to have become stupid.

"Why?"

There was a dissatisfaction in the voice of the national teacher: "You have knelt on my knees for so many years, and only now do you remember to ask why? I know that you already have a rebellious heart, but don't you think that this rebellious heart came late? Everything you have is given by me, and without me, you will not even enjoy the process of competing for the position of the Holy Emperor." Now why do you kneel before me, then I will tell you. ”

The national teacher walked slowly from the underground palace to the door, looked at Lin Qiping standing outside the door, and said word by word: "Because your Lin family is just my watchdog in my eyes, the Lin family has been a royal family for so many years, but if I want, this so-called royal family would not exist hundreds of years ago." I'm keeping you because I need enough dogs to hunt prey for me. ”

Lin Qiping was stunned, although he had already known that the national teacher had absolutely no loyalty to the Lin family, but when these words came out of the national teacher's mouth, he still felt a hot pain on his face. He was stunned for a while and then sneered and said, "Even if it's a dog, anyone will bite if it's urgent." ”

The national teacher couldn't help laughing: "What a big ambition, such a big killing intent to bite people? Do you know what kind of people are bitten by dogs? You don't know, then let me tell you, those who are bitten by dogs are waste, because they are afraid of dogs, and they will be afraid when they see dogs baring their teeth." When the dog barks at them, all they want is to turn around and run. Such a person deserves to be bitten by a dog. And dogs can only bite such people. ”

He slowly raised his hand, and Lin Qiping's body flew up involuntarily. No matter how Lin Qiping struggled, it was meaningless, in front of the national teacher, he was as weak as an ant. There is no room for resistance, and if the national teacher is willing, he may be able to kill him with a single look.

"You bite me?"

The national teacher said coldly: "What are you biting me with? What about your teeth? Show it out and let me see your teeth." If you're a dog king, what about your dogs? Bring out your dogs and I'm desperate. Why did you come by yourself? Sad? Because you're not a dog king at all, and the other dogs of the Lin family don't take you seriously. ”

The national teacher let go of his hand, and Lin Qiping, who was floating in the air, immediately fell down. When he fell, his true yuan had not yet recovered its operation, so this fall was very heavy. The moment he fell, he felt that not only did his cultivation power disappear. Even the physical body has become extremely fragile, even worse than ordinary people. This fall was very painful, and I almost broke my bones when I fell from such a high place.

Lin Qiping forced himself to stand up, allowing himself to maintain the last point of arrogance. However, he also knew very well that his arrogance was nothing in the eyes of the national teacher.

However, even the national teacher didn't notice that there was actually a water drop on Lin Qiping's body. In fact, Chen Xi's previous plan and previous layout were all for this one drop, whether it was to control the golden crow, or to let Lin Qiping and the nine gates of the rivers and lakes confront each other and almost fight, all of them were to make Lin Qiping's heart become chaotic. As long as Lin Qiping's heart is disturbed, then Chen Xi will have an opportunity.

When the people of the Nine Gates of the rivers and lakes confronted him, and when the people of Tianji Mansion watched coldly, Lin Qiping's heart was already in turmoil and he couldn't clean it up at all. So a tiny drop of water fell on him, and he didn't have the heart to care about it at all. Until now, even the national teacher has not doubted this rain.

What Chen Xi wanted was originally to see what kind of person the national teacher was

The national teacher turned around and walked back to the underground palace, and Lin Qiping followed him mechanically. He really wanted to keep his last bit of arrogance, but the national teacher didn't even look at him again. At this moment, Lin Qiping even had the urge to commit suicide, but in the end, he still didn't have that courage. He felt that he was really humble, and he followed the national teacher to the underground palace, and followed behind the national teacher, still like a dog.

"Why!"

Finally, Lin Qiping used the last bit of courage to roar: "Why do you want to get rid of my Lin family! Could it be that the existence of my Lin family is hindering you from something? If you keep the Lin family, the Lin family will always regard you as a national teacher and a friend of the Lin family!"

The national teacher replied without looking back: "I don't need friends." ”

The national teacher slowly walked to the high platform of the underground palace hall and sat on the sandalwood chair in the middle of the high platform. He seemed to be a little haggard, probably because of his continuous cultivation during this time. But compared to the last time he came back after killing the Seven Extinctions, his state was much better. Lin Qiping could guess from the words of the national teacher that the retreat of the national teacher should have ended. A peerless master who could once be ranked among the five strongest people in the world has finally become a force in the body of the national teacher.

"You asked me why I wanted to destroy the Lin family, and the answer was because your Lin family was not angry. ”

The national teacher looked at Lin Qiping and said: "If your father can settle down and be a puppet honestly, how can I have the intention of destroying your Lin family? Twenty years ago, I turned your father into a puppet, killed his soul, and controlled his physical body. ”

"Isn't it good to maintain this situation, everyone thinks that the Holy Emperor and the National Teacher of Great Chu trust each other so much, this is simply a model of the relationship between monarchs and ministers in the whole world. I don't have any requirements for status and other things, everyone thinks I'm a minister, so I do things as a minister. I control your father, and I control this empire, and what a wonderful situation it is, why try to break it. ”

He said with some disappointment: "Your father has escaped, do you understand why I want to get rid of your Lin family?"

At this time, Lin Qiping was like falling into an ice cave. His body trembled violently involuntarily, and even his teeth were pounding, making a heart-wrenching sound. It was impossible to tell whether Lin Qiping really felt the boundless cold at this time, or because of fear to the bone. Perhaps, this is simply a feeling.

"Twenty years ago"

Lin Qiping muttered, "In other words, you killed my father shortly after the matter of the Youth Association was exposed?"

The national teacher said: "It's not about killing, it's just about letting him survive in another way." But I didn't even expect him to be able to hide a trace of his soul, and I didn't even notice it when I checked on him. It is precisely because of this that he has a chance to be resurrected. Of course, I don't think he has the strength to resurrect himself. I have been sure for a long time that there are actually real powerhouses in this world who are in the Full Realm and even above the Full Realm Realm, which is why I am pursuing the limit of cultivation. ”

He squinted his eyes and said, "I don't want to be a second, no matter what kind of second I do." Since you want to practice, then of course you must be the first in all eternities, and you must be the only one in all worlds. I speculate that there are worlds like the Tianfu Continent in other places, and there may be cultivators in every world. Maybe my current cultivation realm is nothing in other worlds. I'm so afraid that I'll be killed before I become the only one in all worlds, so what's the best thing to do?"

The national teacher said: "The best way is to use the power of the entire Tianfu Continent to supply me alone. If the power of the Tianfu Continent is not enough, then add the power of the Endless Abyss. Now do you understand why I have to control a powerful empire, because only by controlling a country can we get all the resources within the control of that empire best and the fastest. What I need, your Lin family will send it to me in a steady stream. In fact, I have the same approach as the Buddha on the Lingmiao Treasure Mountain and the Dao Venerable in the Pure Yang Palace of the Snow Mountain, but in a different way. They created a religion and then fooled everyone to achieve their ends. ”

The national teacher continued: "Originally, I thought that my control method was better than theirs, because after all, they would waste a lot of time and energy doing meaningless things. For example, from time to time, we must show some so-called divine power for those foolish people to see, so that the convincing of those foolish people can be more certain. At first I scoffed at this method, but now I realize that those two people are really smart. ”

"The Buddha fooled the entire Western Regions, and the Dao Venerable fooled the entire grassland, so I decided to change it as well. Since your Lin family and those other self-righteous families want to get rid of my control, then I will simply give you such a chance, and you can resist. Because I don't need you anymore, it won't be long before the Heavenly Machine Sect will become the largest religion in the Central Plains, which is much easier and more effective than controlling an empire. ”

The national teacher leaned over slightly and looked at Lin Qiping condescendingly: "Now that I have explained it so clearly, are you dead?"
