Although he knew everything about what happened in the land of the strong man, after the incident in Sanchuan County, Chen Xikang did not choose to leave Shenwu Palace for the first time, let alone have any plans to return to the west, what he said to Wu Yemei to leave was just to return to the rivers and lakes again.

When he left the West a year ago, Chen Xikang wandered all the way to Taiwu as a person in the rivers and lakes, and now, he still plans to return to the West from the rivers and lakes alone, even if Lao Jin is no longer by his side.

Although because of the prominent status of the founding prince, Chen Xikang had a lot of contact with some high-ranking courtiers when he was a child, and he also saw the happy life of those high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and even had personal contact with the majesty and extravagance that a king should have, but he still couldn't be too interested in the court.

It is really because of the open and secret battles and deceit in the court that Chen Xikang had to learn to hide his true side at a young age, and from childhood to adulthood, because of the reason for paralyzing the Daming Palace, Chen Xikang did six or seven times out of ten were things that he was completely interested in or even unwilling to do, and it was precisely because of this that he was even more disgusted with the battles in the court.

And because of the identity of the martial god in the early years of the founding father, the people around Chen Xikang came into contact with not only those powerful people, but also many monks with prestige in the rivers and lakes, and saw many monks who used mortal bodies to perform immortal means, and these people made Chen Xikang have reverence for the free and happy rivers and lakes, so even if he knew that he had to hide himself, he also knew that his sister who loved him the most was unwilling to let him practice martial arts, but Chen Xikang still secretly hid to learn martial arts.

From the very beginning, Chen Xikang wanted to be a person in the rivers and lakes, to be famous, to be happy, and to be romantic, but after gradually becoming sensible, Chen Xikang, who was a master of Fulong's strategist, knew that he and the rivers and lakes could only laugh at each other in the end.

When the Chaoyuan meeting ended and left Chang'an, Chen Xikang knew that he could only be a passer-by in the rivers and lakes, and after going through it, there would be no follow-up.

So after knowing that Song Heng would target him, he left the west with Lao Jin and threw himself into the rivers and lakes he longed for the most, and then stumbled all the way to start his favorite life.

is really because he yearns for freedom and happiness in the rivers and lakes the most, so even if he has been attacked and killed so much after leaving the west, and living such a life where he can only have fun in suffering, Chen Xikang has never said the word regret.

And now that Xia Chunqiu has rebelled, knowing that there is not much time left for him in the rivers and lakes, Chen Xikang decided to leave, devote himself to the rivers and lakes again, return to the west all the way alive, and then really return to his identity as the prince of the west, with the 500,000 founding division of the west, fight with Song Heng, and compete with Xia Chunqiu!

At this time, in the palace where Chen Xikang was in the Shenwu Palace, although he had only been told by Wu Yemei that he had happened to him that something so embarrassing that it was difficult to speak, Chen Xikang, who had nothing to do about it, had to temporarily put it down and let his heart become as peaceful as the water of a quiet lake, and start the most important thing for a martial artist again, the retreat breakthrough!

After being told by Chen Xikang that she was going to retreat, Wu Yemei did not mess around anymore, and after removing the few maids in the palace, she let the senior brother, Qin Kunbo, and Yile live on the periphery of the palace.

However, with the incident of the strong man, knowing that even if Chen Xikang's matter in the Shenwu Palace spread, it would not have such a big impact, Wu Yemei also relaxed a little, after all, the current Song Heng is probably only thinking about how to deal with Xia Chunqiu and frustrate his sharpness.

Although they knew that they didn't need to keep Chen Xikang's identity too secret, the people in the palace knew that there seemed to be some important people in Xiuchun Palace, where almost no one usually lived, and they didn't dare to approach it privately.

Compared with the strong man, the division of power in Taiwu is not so serious, although the same imperial power is supreme, but the imperial family of Taiwu holds the vast majority of the power of the entire dynasty, so Empress Taiwu has never been afraid that someone will dare to stand up and make irresponsible remarks about Chen Xikang and Wu Yemei.

As long as Chen Xikang doesn't shrink his head and tail and doesn't think about it so much, Queen Taiwu can even tell the world now that Chen Xikang is Taiwu's concubine!

Of course, as the only heavenly khan in the Taiwu Dynasty, Chun Yu Jinge, was in the respect for his original achievements, and attached special importance to his personal military talents.

But now that Chun Yu Jin Ge doesn't mind the matter of Chen Xikang and Wu Yemei, the Taiwu Empress has nothing to worry about.

The current Chen Xikang is not the prince of the West for the entire Shenwu Palace, but just a person who is deeply loved by the Taiwu Imperial Princess, and he is also a person who is especially gentle to the Taiwu Imperial Princess, and this person is now concentrating on retreat, preparing to break through the martial arts cultivation from the Netherworld Realm to the Condensation Realm.

Walking in the rivers and lakes for nearly a year, Chen Xikang's harvest is absolutely rich, his own kendo grinding for the time being, the first time he entered southern Xinjiang, he learned a knife from the old sword saint, after climbing Longhu Mountain, he learned the art of Dao Jiu from Tongtian Daoist and Yuan Qiuxu, and when he realized the Tao in front of the lotus pond, he got the immortal fate and got a sword given by the immortal.

Not only that, he always follows Lao Jin's side, and Chen Xikang has experience for Lao Jin's inch of golden rainbow, every inch of time, and even when Lao Jin shows his half-immortal cultivation, the eternal sword used is like a sword that opens the sky in the night.

If it weren't for the fact that along the way, not only did he have to think about the geography of the mountains and rivers, but also had to speculate on the direction of the situation in the world, and he had to be on guard all the time against those assassins who would appear anytime and anywhere, like maggots on tarsal bones, Chen Xikang would have been able to break through to the realm of condensation.

Xiuchun Palace, the huge palace covers an area of hundreds of square meters, and Chen Xikang is sitting in the largest and most spacious main palace.

Although the existence of one person is not worth mentioning at all for a palace that occupies such a huge area, at this time, there is a steady stream of fierce and majestic sword qi flowing around the entire Xiuchun Palace!

In the wide palace, the Yang Ji Sword, which looked extremely delicate under the bright red at this time, was held up by an invisible force, and after drawing a strange arc in the air, the sword rainbow left behind was like a wrinkled lake, setting off ripples.

At this time, Chen Xikang was practicing his eight sword moves.

From Sword One to Sword Eight, there are a total of eight swords, but because they were created by virtue of what they learned when their cultivation was low, in addition to the first few swords that are more suitable for themselves, the back swords still have flaws and deficiencies because of their own lack of strength.

It is precisely because of this that while using the eight sword moves, after his cultivation is rising day by day, Chen Xikang is also constantly improving his sword eight moves.

Now, what Chen Xikang is practicing is the seventh of the eight sword moves, and the residence of the immortals is Yujing!

Although Chen Xikang's learning is extremely complicated, the things he learns come from extraordinary people, and his martial arts talent is amazing, and he has extremely high attainments in these learnings.

But even so, from the very beginning, Chen Xikang himself had no intention of using these things that belonged to others to make himself the strongest!

After learning so many things, Chen Xikang has always had only one purpose, that is, to soften all these things he has learned into his eight sword moves, so that his eight sword moves can be sublimated!

And now, what Chen Xikang, who has successfully broken through to the realm of condensation, is doing is to use these comprehended "meanings" into his sword moves.

Although Chen Xikang's eight sword moves were not so perfect because of his low cultivation when he was on the Qingguan, after being displayed by the hands of the senior brother, he had already shown terrifying power, and this was enough to show the extraordinary nature of the eight sword moves.

But now, Chen Xikang wants to make the eight sword moves transform again!

From Sword One to Sword Seven, after practicing the original seven swords, Chen Xikang practiced Sword One from the beginning.

However, if someone is by his side at this time, he must be able to see that although the sword used by Chen Xikang before and after is similar, it has really changed, and the subtle changes have made the sword qi overflowing from Deyang Ji's sword also different.

Feeling the subtlety in the aura, although they didn't know what was happening in the palace at this time, the three of the senior brother and Qin Kunbo who were waiting outside the palace clearly felt that the sword qi coming out of the palace by the assassin had changed.

As the person who used to use the Eight Sword Moves instead of Chen Xikang, the senior brother still knew the Eight Swords extremely well, but at this time, from the overflowing sword qi, he felt that the sword one had completely changed in quality, and the senior brother's eyes also appeared contemplative.

And when the senior brother fell into thought because of the changed sword qi, Qin Kunbo and Yile, who were also guarding around Xiuchun Palace, suddenly frowned together, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.

At this time, everyone around the palace can clearly feel that the sword qi overflowing from the center of the palace seems to be a thing with spiritual sense, although it is only sword qi, but it is vivid, as if it is a child who has just opened his spiritual wisdom, distinguishing the things around him, and distinguishing whether everyone is good or evil.

In the first sword, Chen Xikang integrated the real dao technique in the Nine Dao Techniques into it, so the sword that focused on sword intent such as "Asking Immortals Chang'an Road" before was more realistic.

At this time, under the sensitivity of Jian Yi's sword qi, the accuracy of capturing the target has also reached the point of meticulousness, so it makes the senior brothers and others around the palace feel like that.

At first, the purpose of creating the Eight Moves of the Sword was just something that Chen Xikang did out of his yearning for the rivers and lakes, so as far as Jian Yi was concerned, what he showed was more chic, romantic and uninhibited.

In other words, Jian Yi is more like a sword used to show off his skills, there is no killing intent hidden in it, even if the sword is majestic, even if the sword intent is strong, but it always feels gentle.
