Ten years later, Yang Xiu returned to Qingyang City in high spirits, this time Emperor Wu of Liang issued an order, wantonly soliciting people in the rivers and lakes, there are disobedient people, Yang Xiu can be cut first, and take charge of life and death. In this regard, Yang Xiu secretly did not know how many talented young talents he had killed with his own hands, in order to prevent these rising stars from growing into stumbling blocks to his martial arts ascent in the future.

In the palace, Feng Jingquan asked with a smile: "Father-in-law Yang is back, now that ten days have passed, how is the harvest of father-in-law?" ”

Yang Xiu bowed and replied: "Back to Your Majesty, after many solicitations by the minions, among the martial artists who are now willing to submit to the imperial court, there is one second-class master of the Dirt Breaking Realm, which is the master of the secret weapon of the Tang Sect in Shudi, Zhan Yunfei, and one master of the Standing and Rooting Realms, among which Wu Qinglin is good at boxing, and Li Yuan is the leading master of the Jiangnan generation of stick law, with a total of 17 third-class martial artists, 81 fourth-class martial artists, plus 56 two realms, a total of 423 people, a total of 72 large and small sects, and a total of 27 large and small sects that do not want to submit to my Daliang, I've been killed by the minions. ”

Feng Jingquan was very satisfied with this, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Yang has worked hard, and after that, Father-in-law Lao will continue to subdue these people in the rivers and lakes for me." ”

Yang Xiu bent down and said: "It is the duty of a slave to serve Your Majesty, please rest assured that Your Majesty has sent all the subordinates of the Heaven and Earth Pavilion out, and I believe that the entire Liang Kingdom will be used by Your Majesty in the near future." ”

Feng Jingquan smiled: "Then there is Father-in-law Lao Yang." ”

"Your Majesty is gracious." Yang Xiu said: "Your Majesty, there is still one thing about the slave, I don't know whether to talk about it or not." ”

"Father-in-law, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"Your Majesty remembers asking the minions, among the martial artists in the world, if they are desperate and let go of their hands and feet to fight, who is the biggest threat to my Liang."

Feng Jingquan nodded: "Of course I remember that among the martial artists in the world, my father-in-law once said that Cao Qiong was the most lethal and the greatest threat to my Daliang, if there is a chance, I will get rid of him quickly." What's the matter, my father-in-law wants me to order the army to go out to encircle and suppress Cao Qiong? ”

Yang Xiu shook his head and said: "No, even if the army goes out, there is a bloody lesson of Sikong Li and Liu Huailiang rushing to kill the army of our Liang State, and the slave advises Your Majesty not to rush to send troops." Not to mention that the Sword God Mountain is located in the territory of Chu State, the crossing of the army is already full of dangers, and you have to always be on guard against Sikong Li, Baili Jin led the army to wait for the opportunity to move, and according to legend, the Sword God Mountain was originally an ancient sword array site, as long as anyone is on the sword god mountain boundary, Cao Qiong can move the sword array, invincible in the world. Therefore, according to the minions' opinion, only by tricking Cao Qiong to Qingyang City can he design to capture and kill this person. ”

Feng Jingquan frowned and asked, "But there is no one in my Liang Kingdom who is familiar with Cao Qiong, how can I trick him into the city?" ”

"The slave has a plan, you can give it a try." Yang Xiu bowed down and said, "Eight years ago, the slave had dealt with Cao Qiong, who had not yet entered the realm of heaven and man at that time, and the slave had both swords, and he was not an opponent of Cao Qiong empty-handed, and then Cao Qiong inadvertently mentioned a name - Qiu Yao. Over the years, the minions have gone through many investigations, and finally found out who this enemy is. ”

"This man is very talented, and he dominated the world twenty years ago. With the general minions, good at using double knives, this is a swordsman in the south, the year of the weak crown challenged Cao Qiong, who was already famous in the world at that time, regardless of victory or defeat, and then the two became close friends in the year, and called the southern knife and the northern sword, once traveled the world with Cao Qiong, and then parted ways in Dongting Mountain and his whereabouts are unknown. ”

Feng Jingquan frowned and asked, "Qiu? Why have I never heard of this man's name? ”

Yang Xiu explained: "Twenty years ago, Your Majesty was still young, and this person became famous very early, but he was like a flash in the pan in the rivers and lakes, and it was only three months before and after, and it was normal for His Majesty to never hear of it. ”

Feng Jingquan asked again: "Since the whereabouts of this person are unknown, why did Gonggong Yang mention it today?" How did he use the name of this enemy to trick Cao Qiong into coming to Qingyang City? ”

Yang Xiu smiled slightly and said, "Your Majesty, don't be impatient, and listen to the slave carefully." But after the two separated, Qiu Yao, who was determined to become the first in the world, set his sights on the body of the Kongshan Holy Monk, who was recognized as the first person in the world after Chu Tianji, and went to Yunyin Temple alone, and had a private battle with Kongshan. The two seem to have reached an agreement, after the defeat of the enemy, he was willing to imprison himself in the Yunyin Temple, painting the ground as a prison, as long as one day can not break the old monk's standing to become a Buddha, he will never enter the world, and now it has been 20 years. If Cao Qiong learns that Qiu Yao is still in the world, he will come to see him from thousands of miles away, and then His Majesty can ask for help from the empty mountain, set up an ambush in Qingyang City, and kill Cao Lao Thief on the spot! ”

Feng Jingquan frowned, and secretly thought: "The third grandfather has never mentioned these old things to me, it seems that he has become an outsider when he is a monk, and he really doesn't want to pay attention to worldly things." "I was even more determined in my heart to one day get rid of the empty mountain. Looking at Yang Xiu, he asked, "But how can the Holy Monk of Empty Mountain be willing to participate in it, if he is not willing to make a move, who in the world can win against Cao Sword God?" ”

Yang Xiu sighed: "This is also the only concern of the minion, this series of plans, in the final analysis, still depends on whose ability is greater and whose cultivation is higher." As the most critical part of it, if you don't want to make a move, it will be very tricky, but the slave thinks that since the empty mountain monk is the number one martial arts master in the world, and is known for his unbreakable King Kong, he should be looking forward to competing with Cao Qiong, who is the first in lethality, as for how to convince the old monk, it all depends on Your Majesty. ”

Feng Jingquan nodded and said, "Gonggong Yang don't worry, I will definitely invite the empty mountain monk to kill the old thief Cao as soon as possible!" ”
