Chapter 518: Battle of All Saints?
Lu Yu was not wrong, although Nangong Sheng, as the dean of Wushuang Academy, was known as the successor of the Sword Saint Broken Yue, and was respectfully called the Rainbow Saint by the world, he was not a saint after all.
Not to mention him, even the Spear Saint Nie Yi, who has now entered the Holy Domain, is also not a real Holy Rank.
They have no holy name, not a holy throne.
After all, they were warriors, not literati.
After all, there was only one Martial Dao Saint Venerable in the world who was recognized by all the saints.
Sword Master, Broken Yue!
And if you want to really count it, the person closest to the Sword Saint realm in the world is also not Nangong Sheng, because in front of him, there is a shadow that can never be erased.
That shadow is called Yanbei.
It was only after the battle of Beigushan that the Sword Saint fell, and Yanbei was imprisoned in Shilou, so Nangong Sheng ascended to the position of the dean of Wushuang Academy in one fell swoop, which is world-famous.
In terms of literary position, in fact, Nangong Sheng is even inferior to his righteous son, Nangong Yi.
Now he is just a bachelor.
But for a martial country, for a martial artist, civil status has never been the only criterion for measuring strength.
Not even the most important criterion.
Why can Nangong Sheng be given a holy name, but Nangong Yi cannot?
There is only one reason.
Because Nangong Sheng's sword is stronger than Nangong Yi's sword.
It is for this reason that what Nangong Sheng said to Lu Yu is not wrong, although he does not have a holy position, he is absolutely qualified to appear in the Burial Flower Ridge today!
Before the Sword Saint Broken Yue fell, Nangong Sheng's swordsmanship was the third in the world.
After the battle of Beigushan, Nangong Sheng's swordsmanship was only under Yanbei.
If he is not qualified, then who is still qualified to ask the tens of thousands of martial artists in the world?
And in Nangong Sheng's words, there are two very important words.
Number.
Nangong Sheng jokingly said that he was here to make up the numbers. In fact, this statement is very inaccurate and very modest, but he undoubtedly said the most critical thing in the confrontation between the two sides at this time.
Lu Yu and Wang Hao. There are only two people.
And the emperor, Liu Zhongyong, plus Nangong Sheng. There are three of them.
The contest between the saints, let alone one more person, even if there is a slight gap in the strength of the two sides, the final result will be completely different.
What's more, whether it is Lu Yu's tea ceremony or Wang Hao's flower arrangement, in fact, they can only be regarded as auxiliary ways.
And the Emperor Master was known as the best of the six heads of the human race, and it was not because the other five sages felt sympathy for him when they saw him blind. What made him sit on it was proved by Emperor Shitong Guò's own strength!
Just like Xu Huanzhi is recognized as the strongest demi-saint in the country!
As for Liu Zhongyong, he achieved the holy position with a song "Collecting People's Grievances", slaughtering thousands of demons with one word, how terrifying!
Not to mention that now after decades, how powerful will Liu Zhongyong's war poems be?
No one dares to think about it, and no one wants to think about it.
So even if there is no Nangong Sheng's appearance, Lu Yu and Wang Hao's alliance is far inferior to each other, not to mention that now with Nangong Sheng's help, even Su Wen knows it. The Emperor's side will gain a terrifying, almost crushing advantage!
In this way, how can Lu Yu keep Su Wen?
Of course. This qiē is just a theoretical number of comparisons, and the real victory or defeat is still known after the two sides have competed.
And judging from the sneer on Lu Yu's face, it seems that he doesn't think that his side will really lose.
"Nangong Sheng, listen to what you mean, do you really want to fight with us?"
Hearing this, the three sages on the opposite side were silent, and even the emperor didn't answer, because of these words. It's really hard to answer.
Since the end of the Holy War, there has been no contest between the Holy Ranks for a hundred years. Because the power of the Holy Order is too terrifying, with a wave of his hand. It can wipe out thousands of lives, and it can destroy an entire city, so there is a Hundred Saints Oath, and it cannot interfere in the civil war of the human race.
If the battle of the Sages really broke out in the Burial Flower Ridge today, no one dared to imagine what the final consequences would be.
Of course, what the emperor did today did not violate the original Hundred Saints Oath, because at least on the surface, he was targeting Tang Ji, who had already entered the demon, and Su Wen, who helped the demon escape.
And when Su Wen appeared in the Burial Flower Ridge and stood in front of Tang Ji, from a certain point of view, he had actually betrayed the human race.
Therefore, this matter does not involve the interests of the own race, but the alien race!
Even Lu Yu has no way to blame!
But Lu Yu still came today, because Su Wen was different from Tang Ji, and even from Shen Mu, who had left the rebel clan at the beginning.
After all, now Tang Ji is really into the devil, and Shen Mu has really betrayed the belief of human beings and officially switched to the demon clan.
And Su Wen just came to save his brother.
The starting point is different, so the final conclusion can also be different.
In addition, Lu Yu has a very good reason to protect Su Wen today, and he is also upholding the righteousness of the human race!
It is not only because Su Wen is a patriot and a world-class talent who has a very important impact on the shape of today's civil war, but also because of an old case many years ago, a secret that Lu Yu could not tell.
If Su Wen dies today and dies in the burial of Hualing, then it will bury a very huge hidden danger for the future of mankind!
And this hidden danger can even shake the foundation of the human race and destroy the great country laid by mankind a hundred years ago!
For this reason, Lu Yu even did not hesitate to cause the battle of the saints, but he also had to stand very firmly in front of Su Wen and shield him from the wind and rain!
And at the same time that Lu Yu asked this sentence, a sigh quietly rose from the sky above the Burial Flower Ridge, accompanied by the sixth purple gold light, shining on the earth.
A man with a cold iron mask came to Lu Yu's side and couldn't help but shake his head.
"If you're going to fight, then please count me in. ”
This person, except for Su Wen, was very familiar with it, especially for the emperor, and he couldn't help frowning. Because both of them belong to the six heads of the Terran Wendao, and even he has to be wary enough of this man.
More critically, the appearance of the other party. It was already completely unexpected.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, although Su Wen has not seen this person, he has received a letter written to him by this person. There were only fifteen words on the letter.
"I handed her over to Yanbei, don't bother me when you come out. ”
Of course, the notorious torturer.
That can stop a child from crying at night. A torturer who can make the whole world of literature and Taoism talk about it.
After the torturer appeared, he first sighed, then shook his head at Lu Yu and Wang Hao, and finally the gaze that flashed from behind the mask was a little complicated.
Because he didn't expect that he was still caught in this whirlpool, and the culprit of this qiē was Lu Yu!
It's a pity. Because of the same reason as Lu Yu, the torturer at this time couldn't say anything, he could only express his attitude clearly, and then wait for the other party to make a decision.
At this point, the balance of victory between the fields seems to have undergone some subtle changes, at least from the scene, it seems that the advantage on the emperor's side is not as great as before!
This was good news for Suwen, but he didn't understand anything.
He didn't understand why the emperor had put on such a big formation, whether it was against Tang Ji before, or now against himself. He also didn't understand why the man who appeared in front of him at this time was helping him, and who was he?
The development of events has begun to drift away in a direction that Su Wen does not understand at all.
And this. And that's just the beginning......
"What kind of wind is it today, and how did it blow all of you here?"
Just after the torturer appeared for three breaths, Su Wen finally heard a familiar voice coming from afar, and what was even more rare was that this person turned out to be one of the few saints that Su Wen knew.
If you look at it by blood, this person is Su Wen's grandfather.
One of the three powerhouses of the Holy Realm, and one of the helmsmen of the Hundred Saints in the world. The word Saint Su Shi, driving to the funeral Hualing!
The appearance of Su Shi. It wouldn't surprise Lu Yu or the torturer, because they already knew. Su Wen is the bloodline of the Su family, but originally in their expectations, the person who came today should be the Bamboo Saint Su Zhe, but how could it be that the Word Saint returned from the Holy Domain?
So far, there have been a full eight sages who have come to the Burial Flower Ridge, and Su Shi's appearance has completely reversed the shape of the field!
Liu Zhongyong and Nangong Sheng's faces had completely sunk, because they never thought that now in front of Su Wen, there would be the Four Great Saint Steps!
Especially the Torturer and Su Shi, who arrived one step late, were enough to make them feel powerless!
How could Su Wen be so favored by the Holy Heaven!
But I don't know why, after seeing Su Shi appear, the emperor didn't show anger or frustration, but inadvertently set off a smile on the corner of his lips.
It's a pity that Su Wen was the only one who could see this scene, so the bad premonition in his heart before became a little stronger.
What does the emperor want to do?
If he really just wants to convict Su Wen of a traitor, I'm afraid it will be difficult to achieve it now, as long as Lu Yu handles it well, he can take advantage of Su Wen's young and ignorant and impulsive, so he will make today's big mistake, and then punish Su Wen for being grounded in the academy for a period of time, promising to educate this naughty little guy well, then this game that the emperor has painstakingly laid down will only be self-defeating.
Unless, the emperor really wants to trigger a battle of the Sages of the human race!
But obviously, even the emperor does not have such courage.
So in the next moment, the emperor smiled kindly and said, "I think, I'm afraid you all misunderstood, I came today, in fact, not to take Su Wen's life, but simply want to talk to him and ask him a few questions, that's all." ”
"But I am honored that this moment can be done in the presence of all of you, and, if you don't mind, I have actually invited a few old friends to come and do justice. ”
After speaking, the emperor raised his hands slightly, and immediately in front of him, several figures appeared.
This scene suddenly made the rest of the sages present stunned.
Not because of how terrifying the control of the power of space was displayed by the Emperor Master, but because of the few people who appeared in front of the Emperor Master.
None of them are Holy Order, but they all have special statuses.
For example, the presiding void master of the Changtian Holy Temple, and the presiding empty master of the Guangming Holy Temple, as well as the queen of Loulan Kingdom, Yanran Ruoxue, the monarch of the Liao Kingdom, Yelu Jifeng, and an old acquaintance of Su Wen.
It was the one who had entered the Yellow Crane Tower with Su Wen on behalf of the Wei Kingdom, and even called himself a disciple of Haoma in the Nebula Corridor, Helan Kong!
