Chapter 231: Surprised
Shen Ming smiled slightly and said, "White Crane, you don't have to hide it. Ma Gongzi was honest with each other and expressed his doubts, which shows that Ma Gongzi is a man of temperament and worthy of a gentleman's friendship. ”
"Ma Gongzi, you're right, I instructed them to do this."
Ma Ning'er couldn't help but be curious, since he talked about his sore spots, why could he calmly say that it was his own doing, but he was not annoyed at all, this person was really deep.
"Oh? Isn't Sect Master Shen ashamed? ”
Shen Ming didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "Ma Gongzi knows who the most powerful person in the Gaoshan Country is?" ”
Ma Ning'er shook her head and said, "According to legend, your cultivation is the highest, and Yang Guang ranks second, but does this have anything to do with oppressing ordinary people?" ”
Shen Ming nodded and said, "This is indeed the case with secular rumors, but the deeper facts are naturally unknown to outsiders. In fact, I can only rank fifth, and Yang Guang is ranked fourth. ”
"Oh? I don't know if I'm right, but what you're showing now is the Ninefold Realm of the Transcendent Realm, but I'm afraid you're more than that. ”
Shen Ming glanced at Ma Ning'er deeply and said: "Ma Gongzi, it seems that he has some empathy for the understanding of the transcendent realm and the realm of sainthood, facing people in the realm like ours, not only does he not have the fear of ordinary people, but it seems more plain. ”
"Although what you have revealed is the first realm of the Tempered Body Realm, the real realm should be in the Ninth Realm of the Transcendent Realm. I don't know what method you used to suppress the realm to such a low level, but your calmness and indifference made me a little sure. ”
Ma Ning'er couldn't help but admire Shen Ming's unique vision, so he smiled and said, "Sect Master Shen smiled, how can I have such a high realm, but now I have only reached the eightfold realm." But you must have entered the holy realm, as for whether it is one or two, Shu Boy can't tell yet. ”
"Haha, the old decay has been crisscrossing the rivers and lakes for hundreds of years, and it is the first time I have met a person like Ma Gongzi, which is really rare in the world."
"Yes, decay is now a realm."
"Since the sect master is a double realm, then doesn't Yang Guang have a double realm?"
Shen Ming nodded and said: "Yang Guang is indeed a double realm, some time ago he just came out of the retreat cultivation, I am afraid that the realm is a little advanced. ”
Ma Ning'er couldn't help but gasp, although he had already guessed Yang Guang's strength in his heart, but when Shen Ming said it himself, it felt completely different.
His head snapped again.
Looking at Ma Ning'er's worried look, Shen Ming smiled and said, "It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years. What's more, Ma Gongzi's cultivation speed is staggering, and I am afraid that it will not take a few years to enter the holy realm. ”
"Sect Master Shen smiled, how can cultivation be as easy as you said, you all have to have both talent and luck to enter the holy realm, and it took hundreds of years to cultivate to such a realm, boy, I can't reach it."
"But I will definitely take revenge for this revenge, if I can't compete in strength, then I can only think of other ways."
Shen Ming shook his head and said, "Everything in front of strength is a paper tiger. So I advise Ma Gongzi, bear with it first, and wait until the strength is strong enough to come to Yang Guang for revenge. ”
Ma Ning'er didn't agree, but asked, "Who are the top three?" ”
"In third place is Your Majesty today, who has entered the late stage of the Holy Realm."
Ma Ning'er couldn't help but be surprised: "Your Majesty the Emperor? ”
Shen Ming nodded and said, "I didn't expect it." This is also the reason why I will connive at my subordinates who are greedy for small profits, go around oppressing the people, and looting the people's fat and ointment. ”
"Let Your Majesty rest assured, I have no intention of threatening the throne, but only care about some small power, money, women, these worldly things, to dispel Your Majesty's concerns, so as to leave a way for Baiyun Sect to live."
"Moreover, the White Cloud Sect has always had a gap with Yang Guang's Black Tiger Hall, which is also something His Majesty is willing to see. What the imperial power is most afraid of is that the people below will join forces to become bigger, so the history of our open and secret battles comes from here. ”
So that's the case, Ma Ning'er couldn't help but have a new understanding of the Sect Master, this person's city government is deeper than he thought. It seems that many contradictions are not set in stone and depend entirely on the supreme holder of power.
"What about the second and first in line?"
"Their whereabouts are very secretive, they haven't appeared for a thousand years, and their strength is in the triple realm, maybe comparable. That is the old emperor of the imperial family and the old sect master of my Baiyun Sect, both of whom left together a thousand years ago, and their whereabouts are still unknown. ”
Ma Ning'er nodded and said, "Since the two masters left together, the relationship between the royal family and the Baiyun Sect should be very good." Then why is Sect Master Shen still wary of His Majesty the Emperor? ”
"Hey, for thousands of years, no matter how deep the friendship is, it can't withstand the baptism of time. In the face of power, human affection is like a piece of paper. Besides, it was the friendship between the two predecessors, and in the later generations, the relationship slowly became much worse. Shen Ming sighed.
"I heard that Yang Guang is a native of Luochuan, and he can sit in the position of the prince of Guoshan State, so His Majesty trusts an outsider so much? Even if the soldiers of the border fortress are overwhelmed, they don't take action, and they have to rely on the Baiyun Sect to unite with other sects to deal with it? ”
"When the realm reaches the level of sanctification, many things are looked down upon, and this kind of petty fighting can be calmed down with just one finger. His Majesty knows all the circumstances, and he is just observing. ”
"Observe what? The country is about to be lost, the people and soldiers are constantly dying, so he just sits and watchs? ”
Shen Ming shook his head and said: "The people are all ants, it doesn't matter how many deaths he has, he only cares about one thing." ”
After affirming that, he paused.
Ma Ning'er looked into his eyes and asked, "What?" ”
Shen Ming said word by word: "Become stronger!" ”
"That's a reasonable thing, who doesn't want to be stronger?!"
Shen Ming waved his hand and smiled: "You still don't understand what I mean, become stronger, you can sacrifice everything, sacrifice everything!" ”
Ma Ning'er looked at the chill in Shen Ming's eyes, and suddenly felt a thrill, and couldn't help but feel a shock in her heart.
"Your Majesty's cultivation is a very peculiar exercise, and legend has it that it came from there." Shen pointed to the roof.
Ma Ning'er looked up, the roof? Nothing, he didn't understand what Shen was trying to say.
"Legend has it that the practice of the Emperor of Man is to draw nutrients from the aura, which is more violent and powerful than the power condensed by the simple aura."
"It's true of all royalty."
Doesn't it matter if anyone sacrifices a country? But why is that?
Where can it be a country without people? If there are no people, the anger will disappear, so how can we talk about cultivation?
"I don't know why Sect Master Shen told me this."
Shen Ming stood up and walked slowly to the door to look at the pond in the courtyard.
"The people of a country are like the fish in the pond, the utensils are there, and it is up to the owner to decide what fish to raise, and when the master is unhappy one day, he will dispose of all the fish in the pond, or eat or throw it away."
"In the future, you can put on new fish species, and the life in the pond will come back, but the fish later, who knows what happened in the pond before?"
Listening to Shen Ming's bland words, Ma Ning'er and Bai He were like sitting on pins and needles.
They didn't interject to ask anything, but quietly listened to the words that came from the Affirming Sect Master.
