After a long time, King Qi sighed: "I didn't expect this king to be careless and lose everything!" Wei Lao was silent, he had already persuaded King Qi to take action against King Chen Yang and detain or exile, otherwise it would be too late to regret it, but King Qi had been hesitant and did not accept it. Now that King Chenyang's power has developed, it is really a problem to raise tigers, unlike when he could be pinched to death casually, and now it takes a great price to deal with him, and it may even be his opponent at all.

Looking at the silent Wei Lao, King Qi asked tentatively, "Wei Lao, is there no way at all?"

In fact, King Qi had already decided in his heart that this matter was done by King Chen Yang. In fact, one of the purposes of his grand birthday banquet was to wipe out King Chen Yang and his henchmen. On the day of the birthday banquet, King Chen Yang should be present. But he didn't expect King Chen Yang to take the lead and start in advance, which caught him a little off guard.

Wei Lao said unhurriedly: "Great King, in fact, the most important thing now is in Lingyun Palace. ”

"Lingyun Palace, yes, why didn't this king think of it? If there is the support of Lingyun Palace, why worry about the world?" King Qi showed joy on his face. Lingyun Palace, which is an extremely mysterious existence, is located in the Lingyun Valley five hundred miles away from Suncheon City.

Wei Lao shook his head: "King, it's not as simple as you imagined. Lingyun Palace's consistent purpose is not to interfere in state affairs, so as long as Lingyun Palace does not support others, your position is unshakable. ”

King Qi asked in surprise, "Since Lingyun Palace does not interfere in state affairs, then you mean that this king does not need to worry?"

Wei Lao sighed: "If it was before, naturally don't worry, no matter how powerful King Chen Yang is, as long as the military power is in your hands, you will not be afraid." No matter what it costs, you're in control. However, the current Lingyun Palace has deteriorated. ”

King Qi asked again in surprise, "Spoiled?"

Wei Lao said a little helplessly: "As far as the old slave knows, Ling Feng, the palace master of Lingyun Palace, has been in retreat, and now it is his eldest disciple Xingchenzi who is in charge of Lingyun Palace. This Xingchenzi and King Chen Yang are very close, perhaps they have colluded. ”

King Qi stood up in shock: "What? I originally heard that the world is out of Lingyun! If Lingyun Palace is on the side of King Chen Yang, wouldn't the king of this be gone?"

"The king is at ease. Although the king did not adopt the old slave's construction back then, the old slave did not relax his vigilance against King Chen Yang, and secretly cultivated a group of masters, who should be able to deal with the masters recruited by King Chen Yang. ”

Thinking of his indecisiveness back then, King Qi felt a little guilty, but, as the king of a country, how could he bow his head casually, even if he was wrong, he would not admit his mistake lightly.

King Qi looked up to the sky and sighed: "But the strength of Lingyun Palace is unfathomable! There is a saying that it is easy to win the world, but it is difficult to destroy Lingyun." Lingyun Palace is the holy land of martial arts in the world, and the disciples are all over the world, and if you go out at will, you will be a generation of masters. If Lingyun Palace really supports King Chen Yang, then King Ben might as well automatically announce his abdication and give up the throne to King Chen Yang?" If he is allowed to automatically announce his abdication, and then give up the throne to King Chen Yang, it is better to kill him directly. The current shape is so grim, he still seems to be daydreaming, how can he not be frightened?

Wei Lao hurriedly persuaded: "The king's words are wrong! Even if you hand over the throne and the country now, will King Chen Yang let you go? ”

King Qi glanced at Wei Lao helplessly, and said, "Then what do you say? This king knows that if you don't have a certain basis, you won't say the above words." ”

Wei Lao was silent, in fact, Lingyun Palace was already on the side of King Chen Yang, and he said that maybe it was just to reassure King Qi. On the second day after Xingchenzi served as the acting palace master of Lingyun Palace, he began to contact King Chen Yang. With such frequent contact with King Chen Yang, it is impossible to simply drink tea and play chess, talk about life and ideals, and there must be some plans.

What is the picture of King Chen Yang, it is naturally the throne of the Great Qi Kingdom. As for what the star sub-diagram is, I don't know. In fact, Wei Lao also felt strange, as the acting palace master of Lingyun Palace, his status was respected, and he was not under the kings of the Three Kingdoms, not to mention that Lingyun Palace had never interfered in state affairs, what did Xingchenzi want?

Could it be that Wei Lao actually had some numbers in his heart.

After a while, Wei Lao comforted: "King, in fact, Lingyun Palace is not monolithic. There are many masters in Lingyun Palace, they live in simplicity, do not eat fireworks in the world, and are dedicated to pursuing the highest level of martial arts, and they don't care about secular power at all, and the masters of Lingyun Palace have stipulated that Lingyun Palace must not interfere in state affairs, otherwise with the strength of Lingyun Palace, the world would have been unified long ago. ”

"What about this Xingchenzi?" King Qi was puzzled. Since Lingyun Palace stipulates that it is not allowed to interfere in state affairs, wouldn't this Xingchenzi knowingly violate the rules of Lingyun Palace?

"So Lingyun Palace is not monolithic. If Xingchenzi intervenes in state affairs, he will definitely be opposed by many people in the palace. However, as the acting palace master, he has great power and prestige, and there are naturally many people who support him, and he can also establish new rules. This is the most headache. ”

King Qi suddenly thought of a question and asked, "What if the Lingfeng Palace Lord is out of the customs?" Isn't Xingchenzi worried?" You must know that the Lingfeng Palace Lord is not allowed to interfere in state affairs, if Xingchenzi supports King Chen Yang, it is interference in the internal affairs of the Great Qi Kingdom, which is tantamount to going against the will of the Lingfeng Palace Lord.

Wei Lao smiled bitterly: "It's difficult for him to get out of the customs!"

King Qi asked puzzledly, "Why do you say that?"

Elder Wei sighed: "Alas, this actually involves a secret of Lingyun Palace. "With that, it seems to recall something.

"The secret of Lingyun Palace?" King Qi was shocked again. As far as he knows, Lingyun Palace is the most mysterious place in the world, a thousand-year-old martial arts holy place, admired by thousands of people, and in the eyes of the world, it is a sacred place and worshipped. His father, the previous King of Qi, once instructed that anyone could be offended, but he could not offend Lingyun Palace, otherwise he would suffer a great disaster. He always kept it in mind.

The Great Qi Kingdom has always been standing, and it is also because Lingyun Palace is in the territory of the Great Qi Kingdom. If you rashly attack the Great Qi Kingdom and anger the Lingyun Palace, the consequences will be unimaginable.

The secret of Lingyun Palace, it is impossible for ordinary people to know, why would Elder Wei know it? King Qi wanted to ask this question, but he pressed it in his heart.

Wei Lao said with a tone of reminiscence: "Few people know about this secret. If the Palace Master of Lingyun Palace announced a retreat and appointed a substitute palace master, then he must be in retreat. ”

"What is a Death Retreat?" For such a concept, King Qi, who is not a person in the martial arts, naturally does not understand.

Wei Lao explained: "The so-called death pass means that if you don't break through, you will never get out. Retreat is quite dangerous, and if you go on a business trip, you will be completely destroyed. But once you succeed, you will reach another level. ”

"Ahh

Wei Lao nodded and said, "That's right." According to the regulations of Lingyun Palace, if the palace master has not been out of the palace for five years, the current palace master will automatically become the next palace master. ”

King Qi asked again in confusion: "Since the retreat is so dangerous, then why does he still want to retreat?" Yes, as the palace master of Lingyun Palace, his martial arts are already so high, it can be said that he is standing at the peak of the world, why is he going to retreat? Is he afraid that others will not succeed him?

Wei Lao smiled and said, "The martial arts of the Lingfeng Palace Master have been practiced to the extreme, standing at the peak of martial arts, he naturally has a sense of loneliness, and he can't be interested in anything in the world. What he is pursuing with all his heart is a higher realm. ”

"Higher realm, hasn't he already reached the highest realm?" King Qi already felt dizzy.

Wei Lao shook his head and said, "No, maybe in this world, his martial arts have reached the highest level, but according to the Tantric records of Lingyun Palace, martial arts can actually reach a higher level, and at that time, he can conquer mountains and seas, call for wind and rain, and do anything." ”

King Qi's mouth opened wide, and he asked incredulously, "What? Isn't that out of the realm of human beings and becoming an immortal?"

Wei Lao Zhengse said: "Yes, becoming an immortal, this is also the goal pursued by the palace masters of the past dynasties. In fact, all the palace masters of the past dynasties began to retreat when they practiced martial arts to the Great Perfection, but none of them came out. ”

King Qi didn't know how many times he had been thundered, and he was shocked again: "What? Are you saying that these palace masters are not life-spanning, but they have not come out of the retreat, and may have died in the secret room of retreat?"

"That's true. ”

King Qi's heart was extremely shocked, if such a secret was revealed, the whole world would be boiling. No wonder the palace masters of the past dynasties have disappeared, with their martial arts, it is normal to live for one or two hundred years, but it is rare to hear that there are palace masters who live one or two hundred years before abdicating.

King Qi asked weakly: "Old Wei, is there really an immortal in the world?" Everyone in the world admires immortals, but no one knows whether immortals really exist.

Wei Lao smiled bitterly: "I don't know, but the Tantric record is that there is an immortal storage zài, it is said that Lingyun Palace is the first palace master to get the martial arts secret book Lingyun Jue of Lingyunzi, the number one master in the world ten thousand years ago, and after cultivation, martial arts are great and established." It's just that this Lingyun Jue seems to be missing a few pages, the Lingyun Jue obtained by the first palace master, the last page says that martial arts can reach a higher level, maybe it is the level of immortals, and there is also a cultivation method, but unfortunately, this cultivation method, a part of it is missing, it should be on the missing pages. Therefore, the retreat of the palace masters of the past dynasties was all for the purpose of penetrating this incomplete cultivation method. ”

King Qi was silent for a long time, and finally asked the question he had always wanted to ask, that is, "Old Wei, since this is the secret of Lingyun Palace, how do you know?"

Wei Lao knew that King Qi would ask such a question, and he replied without thinking, "Because the old slave came out of Lingyun Palace. Speaking of this, Wei Lao's face flashed with a strange brilliance, it seemed that he was proud that he was from Lingyun Palace. At the same time, his half-closed eyes were open and radiant. If there is a difference between him and an ordinary old man, it is these eyes, which are shining with essence, indicating that he is full of energy.

"What, Old Wei, are you from Lingyun Palace?" King Qi looked at him in shock. Wei Lao has followed him for many years and has never said his origins. According to Wei Lao, the first king had a life-saving grace for him, and he was willing to be a slave to repay the kindness of the first king. The will of the first king asked the king of Qi to treat him with courtesy, as if he were a father, the king of Qi was a filial son, and he also respected the last wish of the first king, and slowly he knew that Wei Lao was a strange person, so Wei Lao always called himself an old slave in front of him, and never changed his words.

Old Wei nodded and said, "The old slave is the eldest disciple of the previous palace master of Lingyun Palace, and Ling Feng is actually the senior disciple of the old slave. The old slave went out of the palace to practice, punished the evil and promoted the good, and when he saw the injustice, he drew a sword to help, and was called a hero, but unfortunately he offended too many people, so that he was conspired against and saved by the first king. After the injury was healed, the old slave returned to the palace and asked the master to expel the old slave from Lingyun Palace, because the old slave wanted to repay the former king for saving his life, but the rules in the palace were not allowed to interfere in state affairs, and repaying the former king's life-saving grace was likely to involve state affairs, so the old slave could no longer be a person in Lingyun Palace. The master agreed to the old slave's request and expelled the old slave from Lingyun Palace, so few people knew the origin of the old slave. ”

"I see. King Qi suddenly realized that he admired Wei Lao even more.

"Old Wei, for so many years, I've suffered you. "As the eldest disciple of Lingyun Palace, Wei Lao is very likely to take over as the palace master, even if he can't be the palace master, his status is extremely respectful, but he didn't expect to give up such a status in order to repay the grace of saving his life, then how noble his character is! He is a true hero, a real hero.

Looking back on these years, he did not treat Wei Lao badly, he always followed the will of the previous king, treated him with courtesy, regarded him as a father, and King Qi's heart was also very calm, otherwise, he would really be ashamed of this old man.

Wei Lao finally said: "Because the old slave is from Lingyun Palace, and he has also been exposed to many things, so he knows some secrets of Lingyun Palace, although Lingyun Palace seems very mysterious to outsiders, but in fact, to put it bluntly, it is nothing. The masters in Lingyun Palace are like clouds, but these masters will not make a move lightly, and the masters have the demeanor of a master. Even if Xingchenzi has no appeal and many people support him, there will not be too many people to help him when it comes to interfering in state affairs, so the king should not worry too much. ”
