Chapter Twenty-Five: Blood and Breath

Sunny and white, bald trees, yellow walls and red tiles, the sky is languishing.

The four ancestors did not hide their figures, and slowly walked into the main hall of the palace with Yun Xuan and Concubine Qing.

Yesterday, the vision of heaven and earth has appeared, and the blood moon has appeared. Even if the matter of the seal is not leaked, there will be a storm outside, and all kinds of immortal cultivators will flock to it. There is a great opportunity from the sky, and no one can let others take it. It's hard to find good things, maybe who will pick up the empty and leaks, how can you not give it a try?

The world of cultivating immortals is the weak and the strong, difficult and dangerous, and from top to bottom, they all believe in wealth and danger. Although it is not easy to cultivate immortals, most of them spare their lives, but there is never a shortage of outlaws who take risks.

Yesterday, there was such a big commotion in the Tianguang vision, and at this moment, I don't know how many monks from various sects and sects rushed to the light. I'm afraid that some capable and caring people have already entered the territory of Qingwu.

For thousands of years, the four major sects have pretended to be loosely defended, and each of them has sent a small cultivator family to guard it, and their indifferent attitude has long made the world forget the existence of this forbidden place.

The four major sects are far away. In the past thousand years, everything has indeed developed smoothly as they expected, the seal has gradually loosened, and the plan is about to be obtained! But who would have expected that at this critical juncture, there would be an increase in the number of anomalies, and some terrible vision of heaven and earth would occur.

The four ancestors sighed in their hearts, they didn't do anything to hide their ears and steal the bell, and calmly entered the Qingwu Palace early to guard, guarding the core of the seal and waiting for the support of the sect. After all, compared to them, this matter was even worse for the top level of the sect.

The palace made of golden silk nanmu is magnificent, the hall is extremely wide, several temple pillars that two people can surround can stand tall and upright, and the delicate dragon god on the pillar is lifelike, as if to leap out. It echoes with the golden dragon on the back of the emperor's throne on the palace level, and it is heroic.

"A group of ants also deserve such enjoyment!" Ruan Guang, the tall and thin ancestor of the Ruan family, glanced at the main hall gloomily, and sat down on the dragon chair with a proud bow to the Qingwu Emperor's grandson Mu.

"I've seen four ancestors. Gongsun Mu didn't know that the ancestor was here in person, and he missed the welcome, so he asked the ancestor to forgive his sins. Gongsun Mu's dazzling dragon robe was overshadowed by the dashing majesty of several ancestors, and he hurriedly clenched his fists and made a circle.

"You step aside, there will be a big event in Qingwu in the near future, and the palace will be managed by the old man for the time being. Ruan Guang impatiently waved Gongsun Mu to the side.

Seeing that Fu Hong was still secretly on guard, blocking Yun Xuan and Concubine Qing behind him, Ruan Guang's face became more and more gloomy. The aura around the three of them was rippling, and that kid seemed to be able to really gather the aura leaking from the seal and calmly absorb and cultivate. Ruan Guang was annoyed in his heart, and he vented suspiciously: "What was the incident with the assassin yesterday?

"Tell the ancestor that the assassin's case has been tried, and the prisoners have been ambushed. Gongsun Mu's slender eyes were lowered and he said respectfully.

"Oh, the old man didn't know that you were so nimble, and you were all found dead?"

"Yes. ”

"Who is making trouble, but those idle warriors in your palace?" Ruan Guang's cold gaze went straight into Gongsun Mu's heart. What he meant was that he was recruited by the Gongsun clan to be the martial arts guards of the four major families.

"Definitely. Mu found out that Tsing Yi and Zi Yi were the clansmen of Concubine Lan of the Qi family. It was originally enshrined in the palace by the Qi family to fill the backyard and extend the heirs. I never thought that the two of them had hidden evil intentions, assassinated Concubine Yi and Concubine You, and strangled my unborn child in Concubine Yi's womb. Gongsun Mu covered his sleeves and wiped the corners of his eyes, "Such a brutal person, Mu must not bear it." Mu was furious, and ordered the attendants to arrest the Qi clan overnight, and beat them all to death to vent their anger!"

"Really?" Ruan Guang sneered, "Gongsun Mu, you are confused. This scene is clearly because someone is working together inside and outside, and wants to take your grandson's nest! If you kill the Qi family, it will be over? All the people in your palace are not allowed to practice martial arts except for the guards, and the palace people and concubines must verify their integrity before entering the palace. Let me ask you, how did these two bruises escape the inspection of the palace? There are many fish and dragons in your palace, and there must be people with bad intentions, and the old man will clear the king's side for you!"

"Tell the emperor," Gonggong Tao saw Gongsun Mu sweating coldly, his teeth clenched, and he stepped forward unhurriedly, "I just came to report, the suspicious palace people in the palace have been sorted out almost completely, and they are left to wait for the criminal division." Would the emperor like to move over and have a look?"

"Ancestor, in this way, the thief who did the internal response has also been arrested. Gongsun Mu smiled cautiously, "Then I don't bother the ancestor to do it." ”

"That's better. You lead the way, and the old man will go and see your methods!"

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Along the way, the palace was tense, and the palatial palace seemed to be covered with a layer of stucco, which was so heavy that people could not breathe. In the early morning, the sun reflected the yellow tiles and red walls, and the hazy light was cold, without any warmth.

In the Criminal Division of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the huge outer courtyard was crowded, and the palace people were densely standing short. The deacons in the inner hall all had gloomy expressions on their faces, and their dark red clothes were dotted with blood.

The emperor's grandson Mu came to the dragon head hanging in the hall, and behind the wide and red desk, his calm and cold gaze swept over the palace people one by one, and everyone trembled and shuddered.

"We will never tolerate adultery!" said the emperor angrily.

At the sound of an order, the suspicious palace people were immediately pulled to soak in the chair or tortured. If there is any trace of suspicion, he will be killed immediately.

The sound of the whip in the inner hall was mixed with a terrible cry, striking the eardrum clearly and sharply, and it had the effect of echoing. A thick smell of blood poured out, spread out on the door of the room, and mourned and surrounded it, and it was not gone for a long time.

The shouts gradually deepened, and the splashing sound of "whoosh" and "whoosh" sounded. The cry of "confession" cried out again, and then there was no more sound.

The four ancestors were all present, and the two of them were silent, calmly turning a blind eye. The ancestor of the Ruan family sneered again and again, and shook his nose as if he loved the bloody sweetness. Fu Hong, the ancestor of the Fu family, still protected Concubine Qing and Yun Xuan inch by inch, occasionally raised his eyes to search, and once again lowered his eyes to rest.

Yun Xuan couldn't bear the vomiting feeling in his heart, unwilling to see the cruel scene of execution and murder, forcing himself to calm down and grasp every moment of exercise. The Nine Heavens Yin Yang Mind Method has this benefit, and it cannot be practiced all the time, and there is no major problem in stopping or interrupting abruptly in the middle.

The true qi flow in the body gradually grew, converging in all parts of the meridians, and the sporadic points of light that were blue at the beginning were gone. Wrapped in the external aura that is absorbed inside, little by little assimilation and refining is turned into its own use. Merge into the dantian, cool and comfortable, and a slight feeling of fullness, as if to break the dantian, overflowing. The breakthrough of the second layer of gas refining is imminent!
