Chapter 270 Rumors in the Capital of Daxia

Lu Chen's wives and concubines were waiting anxiously at the door of the academy. They were all afraid that something had happened to Lu Chen in the study. After all, it was the first time for them to see such a strange phenomenon.

Just when the women were anxious, the door of the study opened, and Zhuge Chongguang and Lu Chen walked out one after another.

At this time, Mu Zixuan hurriedly came up and asked with concern: "Prince, are you okay?"

Seeing so many people standing at the door of the study, Lu Chen smiled and said: "I'm sorry, the university scholar just had some insights and broke through. The movement was a bit loud, which made you worried."

Lu Chen only said that he had broken through, and did not say what realm Zhuge Chongguang had broken through to. He was not lying. After all, Zhuge Chongguang broke through from the Grand Master to the Grand Master's Ultimate Realm, which was still a breakthrough.

However, after hearing what Lu Chen said, the people gathered at the door of the study were stunned for a moment.

Breakthrough?

Zhuge Chongguang broke through?

Isn't Zhuge Chongguang already a Grandmaster? If he breaks through again, wouldn't he be...

Heaven...Heavenly Man Realm? ? ?

When they thought of this, everyone was speechless.

There is a Heavenly Man Realm expert in the Northern Kingdom?

Doesn't that mean no one will dare to provoke the Northern Kingdom in the future?

Seeing that everyone at the door was stunned, Lu Chen and Zhuge Chongguang smiled at each other, and Zhuge Chongguang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I still have government affairs to deal with, so I'll leave first."

Lu Chen smiled and said: "Okay, take care."

After Zhuge Chongguang left, the women reacted. Mu Zixuan asked in disbelief: "Your Majesty, did the Grand Secretary really break through?"

Although Mu Zixuan is still an ordinary person now, she also knows very well what it means for the Northern Kingdom to have a Heavenly Man Realm. This news is really shocking.

Lu Chen said: "Didn't you see the pillar of light that shot up into the sky just now? It was so noisy. Don't you believe that he has broken through?"

"Do you think an ordinary grandmaster can make such a noise?"

After hearing what Lu Chen said, the women felt that it made sense. If it was a grandmaster, there would be no such a big noise. Just now, the sky was covered with dark clouds and it seemed that the sky was about to collapse.

The only thing that could cause changes in the celestial phenomena could be the heavenly realm, which people called pseudo-immortals.

Seeing the excitement of his wives and concubines, Lu Chen smiled helplessly. It would be great if Zhuge Chongguang really broke through to the heavenly realm.

...

In the afternoon, the news of Zhuge Chongguang's breakthrough spread throughout Yancheng. The people of Yancheng were instantly excited, and the spies of Yancheng were also dumbfounded.

Even ordinary people know what the heavenly realm means. The heavenly realm is also called pseudo-immortals. Before people see real immortals, people with the strength of the heavenly realm are immortals.

Now the common people are saying that Zhuge Chongguang has become an immortal. The light column they saw at noon was formed when Zhuge Chongguang passed the tribulation and ascended to heaven.

The spies from various countries were shocked by the news. They quickly sent people to inquire about the news everywhere, wanting to verify whether the news was true.

After investigations by spies from various countries, the official newspaper of the Northern Kingdom did not mention the news of Zhuge Chongguang's breakthrough. The official newspaper of the Northern Kingdom only said that it would promote universal education, while the news of Zhuge Chongguang's breakthrough appeared in the newspaper of the Eastern Newspaper. However, the newspaper of the Eastern Newspaper only said that Zhuge Chongguang had broken through, but did not say that Zhuge Chongguang had broken through to the realm of heaven and man.

But Zhuge Chongguang was already in the realm of Grandmaster. According to people's understanding, above the Grandmaster is the realm of heaven and man, and there is no other realm between the Grandmaster and the realm of heaven and man.

Since the Eastern Newspaper said that Zhuge Chongguang had broken through, doesn't it mean that Zhuge Chongguang has become a strong man in the realm of heaven and man?

A powerful man in the realm of heaven and man was born in a feudal state in the Northern Kingdom! ! !

The spies and caravans of various countries all felt that the world was about to undergo earth-shaking changes.

You must know that those below the Heavenly Man Realm are all mortals, and a Heavenly Man Realm can easily destroy hundreds of thousands of troops. Now that the Northern Kingdom has a Heavenly Man Realm, will they still be content to be a feudal country in the future?

A stone stirs up a thousand waves.

In less than a week, the news that Zhuge Chongguang broke through to the Heavenly Man Realm spread throughout the major dynasties, and all the major dynasties were shocked by the news.

That is the Heavenly Man Realm. So far, no dynasty has clearly appeared a Heavenly Man Realm expert. The strongest now is the Grand Master. As for the Heavenly Man Realm expert of the Great Xia Dynasty, he is just a member of the Xuanyue Palace. Xuanyue Palace is not a secular force, so it cannot be regarded as a Heavenly Man Realm expert of the Great Xia Dynasty.

Soon, several major dynasties were considering how to get along with the Northern Kingdom. Of course, as for whether Zhuge Chongguang really broke through to the Heavenly Man Realm, the authenticity must be verified, but before verification, it does not prevent them from having a good relationship with the Northern Kingdom.

Spies from various countries saw the changes in the celestial phenomena in Yancheng, so in the eyes of most people, the news that Zhuge Chongguang had broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm was very likely true.

This news spread throughout the major dynasties, and naturally soon reached the ears of Emperor Xia.

Great Xia Dynasty, Imperial Palace.

In the Imperial Garden.

When Emperor Xia saw the battle report sent by the messenger Hong Ling from Jiangnan, he couldn't help but feel extremely relieved. The Jiangnan family, the heaviest stone in his heart, was finally going to be smashed by him.

As long as the Jiangnan family is eliminated, the other families in Daxia are not to be feared at all. In fact, those families have also used various methods to assist the Jiangnan family, but the Jiangnan rebels were still defeated, and they were defeated miserably. Now they can only hide in Sufeng City and wait for death. This shows that the ancient families of Daxia have run out of luck.

The great masters of the Daxia royal family are already waiting outside Sufeng City. The last battle is the war between the great masters of the royal family and the great masters of the major families. As long as the great masters of the royal family defeat the great masters of the Jiangnan family, the war will be completely over.

Once the great masters of the Jiangnan family die, no one can resist the army of the court. At that time, the Jiangnan family will completely disappear from this world.

Emperor Xia looked at the battle report in his hand and thought to himself that after solving the Jiangnan family, he would immediately unite the great masters of various dynasties and then eliminate Zhuge Chongguang. Without Zhuge Chongguang, the Northern King would not be able to make any waves even if he had three heads and six arms.

Just when Emperor Xia was thinking this, a shadow suddenly appeared in front of him. The shadow guard knelt on the ground, holding a letter, "Your Majesty, an urgent report from Yancheng!"

Hearing that the information was sent from Yancheng, Emperor Xia took the envelope without any hesitation, and then opened the envelope to check the content of the information.

After seeing the contents of the envelope, Emperor Xia was like a bolt from the blue, and the whole person was stunned.

The content of the information was very simple, just one line of words, "Zhuge Chongguang has broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm!"

This...

How is this possible?

When did it become so easy to break through to the Heavenly Man Realm?

Although some people have been saying that Zhuge Chongguang is about to break through the Heavenly Man Realm, this sentence has been said for decades, and Zhuge Chongguang has not really broken through the Heavenly Man Realm.

As a result, Zhuge Chongguang has only been in the North Country for a short time, and he has broken through?

Emperor Xia could not accept this news in his heart.

If Zhuge Chongguang was a member of the Great Xia court, his person, then it would be easy to say, but Zhuge Chongguang was a member of the North Country, his least favored person and most likely not his biological son.

It is probably self-evident what a feudal state will do next when it has a strong man in the Heavenly Man Realm.

Seeing that Emperor Xia looked at the letter in his hand for a long time without recovering, and looked like he was frozen, Situ Ce in the pavilion beside him seemed to understand something.

Although he didn't know what happened, but to make Emperor Xia lose his composure like this, something must have happened in the Northern Kingdom this time.

After a long time, Emperor Xia came back to his senses and said: "Check, let the shadow guards of Yancheng check for me immediately, I want to know the exact news!"

The Heavenly Man Realm is the end of the martial arts, a pseudo-immortal, and an existence that cannot be offended. Once the Northern Kingdom has a strong man in the Heavenly Man Realm, Emperor Xia's position may be unstable. Emperor Xia didn't care whether he lost his composure at this time.

And what scared him most was that the things that happened in his childhood would happen again. That year, the Heavenly Man Realm strong man in Xuanyue Palace killed many grandmasters, so that there are still grandmasters hiding in the deep mountains and old forests and dare not come out.

If Zhuge Chongguang was like that Tianren realm expert, would the great masters of the royal family be slaughtered again? The key point is that he is now a great master himself. If the Tianren realm experts want to kill the great masters, then he, the emperor, may also die at the hands of the Tianren realm experts.

At this time, Emperor Xia felt the fear of death for the first time, and those horrible memories of his childhood once again shrouded his mind.

Seeing Emperor Xia lose his composure like this, Situ Ce finally couldn't help it, "Your Majesty, I wonder what happened?"

Emperor Xia did not answer, and directly flew the letter in his hand to Situ Ce. Situ Ce caught the letter and glanced at the contents on the letter paper.

Seeing these words, Situ Ce was also stunned.

Tianren realm...

That is the realm that many great masters dream of. Countless great masters cannot touch the threshold of Tianren realm until they die of old age. Since he was born, the only one he knew who broke through to Tianren realm was the one in Xuanyue Palace.

If Zhuge Chongguang is also counted as one, then there are two people.

But...

Has Zhuge Chongguang really broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm?

At this moment, a soldier hurried to Emperor Xia, "Your Majesty, there is something unusual happening in the Northern Kingdom!"

Hearing this, Emperor Xia and Situ Ce were both stunned.

Emperor Xia immediately asked, "What's going on?"

The soldier replied, "The Northern Kingdom has stationed 100,000 troops in the border area of ​​Qi Kingdom. They claim that if the court has difficulties and cannot deal with the Jiangnan rebels, they can go south at any time to assist the court in suppressing the rebellion."

Hearing this, Emperor Xia's face darkened instantly.

Now the Jiangnan rebels are almost wiped out, and they are all hiding in Sufeng City and dare not come out. As a result, the Northern Kingdom said that it would send troops south. What is the Northern Kingdom thinking? I'm afraid no one doesn't know it?

Emperor Xia couldn't help but wonder, could it be that Zhuge Chongguang has really broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm, otherwise why would that little beast be so anxious to send troops south?

That little beast obviously can't wait to get his throne.

The more Emperor Xia thought about it, the angrier he became. The next moment, he suddenly coughed.

"Cough cough cough... puff..."

As he coughed, a mouthful of blood suddenly spurted out. Seeing this, Situ Ce in the pavilion hurriedly came out of the pavilion and came to Emperor Xia. He quickly put his hand on Emperor Xia's back to help him regulate his breath.

"Your Majesty, don't get angry. Take care of your body!"

Emperor Xia also realized that if he continued to be so angry, he might go crazy. He quickly stabilized his breath and calmed himself down.

After a while, Emperor Xia calmed down a little.

However, another black shadow appeared in front of Emperor Xia. He was about to report intelligence. Situ Ce frowned, fearing that the intelligence reported by the shadow guard was bad news and would make Emperor Xia angry. He hurriedly said: "Your Majesty is not feeling well now. If there is anything, report it tomorrow."

After hearing the words of the national teacher, the shadow guard swallowed the words in his mouth. At this time, Emperor Xia, who had calmed down, said: "No, just say it directly."

He didn't believe that the next news could be any worse. In his opinion, there was no news worse than the news that Zhuge Chongguang broke through to the heavenly realm.

Seeing that Emperor Xia had asked him to speak directly, the shadow guard did not hesitate and said directly: "Your Majesty, the owner of Taohua Valley sent someone to bring you a letter saying that she will be in seclusion recently. This seclusion may not come out within ten years. If you have anything to do, please find her again in ten years."

Hearing this, Emperor Xia snorted coldly and said nothing.

It is obvious that the owner of Taohua Valley also knew the news of Zhuge Chongguang's breakthrough and was scared to dare not come out.

What a bullshit seclusion, they are all a group of cowardly old antiques.

Emperor Xia then said: "Send an order, let Zhao Quan speed up, solve the Jiangnan rebels as soon as possible, and capture Xiao Ba."

Although Emperor Xia still couldn't believe that Zhuge Chongguang had broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm, some things had to be prepared in advance.

The Northern Kingdom has already deployed 100,000 troops in the border area with Qi Kingdom, which obviously shows that the little beast has made up his mind. If he wants to sit firmly on the throne, he must solve the chaos in Jiangnan as soon as possible and then transfer all the elite forces to the north.

After a while,

A rumor was spreading in the streets of Daxia Capital. Some people said that the Daxia royal family had obtained a holy object from Xuanyue Palace. This holy object could temporarily improve a person's strength to the heavenly realm.

As soon as this rumor spread, it immediately caused a sensation. Many people doubted the authenticity of this rumor. After all, if there was such a thing, how could Xuanyue Palace give it to the Daxia royal family.

Although the goddess of Xuanyue Palace married Emperor Xia, she did not have a good ending. Xuanyue Palace had fallen out with the Daxia royal family a long time ago. It was impossible to give such a good thing to Emperor Xia, not to mention that this was the holy object of Xuanyue Palace.

At the same time.

North Country.

Lu Chen had already embarked on the road to Dayu City for inspection. This time, it was easier to go north and there was no danger, so Lu Chen brought Xiao Wenyao with him.

Didn't Xiao Wenyao always want to ride a horse on the grassland? On the journey to the north, there were endless grasslands everywhere. Lu Chen gave Xiao Wenyao this opportunity. During the day, Xiao Wenyao rode on the grassland to let herself go, and at night, it was Lu Chen's turn to ride a horse to relax.

Although Lu Chen went north, their caravan was not very fast. If the Jinyiwei had any news, they could still catch up with Lu Chen's caravan.

In the evening, Lu Chen's caravan had already set up camp. Lu Chen was about to ask someone to call Xiao Wenyao. At this time, a Jinyiwei came to Lu Chen, "Your Majesty, there is information from the capital!"

Hearing this, Lu Chen immediately took the information from the Jinyiwei, and then opened it and glanced at it.

After seeing the rumor in the capital of Daxia, Lu Chen's mouth corners slightly raised. He had long learned from Chen Wanrong that Emperor Xia had the sacred object of Xuanyue Palace.

However, this news could be spread and circulated everywhere in the capital of Daxia, which is somewhat intriguing.

This news is most likely not released by Xuanyue Palace. Xuanyue Palace does not want people to know that their holy objects are in the hands of Emperor Xia.

Xuanyue Palace is such a powerful sect, but they can't keep their holy objects. Instead, they fall into the hands of the secular royal family. It's not good to spread this.

Moreover, this holy object should be somewhat important to Xuanyue Palace. If too many people know that the holy object is in the hands of the Great Xia Royal Family, what should be done if more people want to get the holy object in the future?

Since this news is not from Xuanyue Palace, who spread this news?

To guess who spread this news, we must consider that there must not be many people who know that the Great Xia Royal Family owns the holy objects of Xuanyue Palace, so this news is definitely not spread by ordinary people. Secondly, who can benefit from this news?

The figure of Emperor Xia instantly emerged in Lu Chen's mind.

The news that Zhuge Chongguang had broken through to the Heavenly Man Realm spread throughout all dynasties. In addition, in order to make the performance more realistic, Lu Chen transferred Wei Siyuan's 100,000 troops to the border area of ​​Qi State, pretending to go south, which led to the turmoil in Daxia.

There is no doubt that Emperor Xia was also afraid.

Emperor Xia was really worried that the Northern Kingdom would really rebel by relying on the Heavenly Man Realm.

So in order to prevent the Northern Kingdom from really rebelling, he could only release the news that he had the sacred object of Xuanyue Palace, creating a situation that the Daxia royal family had a secret weapon and had the strength to fight against the Heavenly Man Realm.

In this way, if the Northern Kingdom wanted to rebel or go south to attack the capital, it would have to consider whether the Daxia royal family really had a sacred object that could raise people's strength to the Heavenly Man Realm.

In fact, it was just to deter the Northern Kingdom.

After reading the intelligence, Lu Chen said to the Jinyiwei soldier in front of him: "Go tell Wei Siyuan to let his soldiers move a little and show up at the border of Qi State more often."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen continued: "Okay, go down."

"I'll take my leave."

Just after the Jinyiwei soldier left, Xiao Wenyao, who had been riding a horse for a day, came back. She was very relaxed now. She hadn't been so happy for a long time.

At this time, Lu Chen smiled and said to Xiao Wenyao: "Yaoyao, how do you feel?"

Xiao Wenyao happily thanked him and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for letting me go north with you."

Lu Chen said at this time: "You must be tired after riding a horse for a day. Come, follow me into the tent and I will help you relieve your fatigue."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Xiao Wenyao's face suddenly showed a touch of rosy clouds. She had been riding a horse on the grassland for a day, and it was indeed time for Lu Chen to ride it.

Xiao Wenyao whispered: "I'll be here soon."
