Chapter 34: Convincing People with Reason, Continuous Simulation
"It's just that the Thousand-Faced Demon is here, but where is the real Gentleman's Sword?"
"Is it possible that he has been killed?"
Everyone was shocked and speculated.
Sun Tianyu was a direct disciple of the headmaster of Sword God Mountain, and it was outrageous enough that he was secretly replaced by someone from the Demon Sect. If he was killed by the Demon Sect again, there would probably be another earthquake in the world of Zhao.
Lu Changsheng didn't care at all whether Sun Tianyun was dead or alive. He only cared about how much money he could receive.
"Lord Governor, I defeated forty-seven bandit strongholds in a row and captured the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord for the government. I wonder when you can give me the twenty thousand taels of silver reward?"
Lu Changsheng looked at Fang Linghai with a smile.
"Ahem, don't worry."
Fang Linghai also recovered from the shock, coughed, and said in an official tone: "I have to wait for the verification results to come out before I can give this to you. There were so many people pretending to claim it before, so I decided to adopt a more stringent verification method."
"So how long will it take for the new verification method to produce results?"
Lu Changsheng's smile became even brighter.
"As fast as ten days, as slowly as a month."
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng's smile gradually became abnormal.
But Fang Linghai didn't see it, and just said to himself: "After all, it's all the court's money, so I have to be extremely cautious... Oops!"
Before he finished speaking, a terrifying big hand slapped away the policeman in front of him, pinched his neck, and pressed his head to the floor. The devil-like voice sounded again: "I'll give you two." Choose, either take me to the warehouse to collect the money now, or I will send you to the west!"
…
After Lu Changsheng convinced others with his theory (physics), he finally got his own money.
A total of twenty thousand taels, enough for him to simulate four times.
With the money, Lu Changsheng didn't want to wander around, so he went straight to the Ruyi Inn he had made an appointment with Song Wanjin and checked in.
In Room No. 1 of Tianzi, Lu Changsheng sat at the square table, looking at the simulator, with a flash of excitement in his eyes.
The inner energy master is right in front of you.
"Simulate it for me!"
[Consumption of 5,000 gold, remaining 18,086 gold, simulation begins. 】
[At the age of seventeen, you defeated forty-seven bandit villages in a row, and saw through the disguise of the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord in the state government office. Your reputation became great. 】
[Two days later, at the large-scale auction held by Sihai Auction House, the Dragon King helped the Seventh Elder to take the final item, the Houtu Jue. 】
[That night, you sneaked into the Dragon King Gang's sub-rudder and stole the Houtu Jue, and bloodbathed the sub-rudder. Soon after, the Dragon King Gang issued a murder order against you. 】
[A month later, you arrived at Jingchuan City in Youzhou, preparing to live in seclusion here and practice the Thick Earth Technique. 】
[However, the four great sages of the Demon Cult suddenly arrived and used the combined attack technique to kill you. You are dead! 】
"ah?"
In Lu Changsheng's heart, ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped past.
The Dragon King Gang didn't come to the door, but the Demon Cult was so impatient that they wanted to kill him.
The last time the four great sages of the Demon Sect took action together, it was because Lu Changsheng chased and killed the Master Suzaku twice during the simulation.
But this time the change is in the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord.
The Thousand-Faced Demon Lord disguised himself as Sun Tianyun from the Sword God Mountain, allowing himself to see through him on the spot and destroying his martial arts skills.
Sun Tianyun himself has a very special identity, as he is the direct disciple of the headmaster of Sword God Mountain.
It seems that he unintentionally sabotaged some plan of the Demon Sect, which caused the four great sages of the Demon Sect to jump over the wall and insist on killing himself.
It can't be said that it was unintentional. Who told this guy to have to pretend to be his own share of the reward?
He was even caught on the spot.
If you don't challenge him, who will you challenge?
If it wasn't for the sake of giving an explanation to Zhengdao and the government, Lu Changsheng would have crushed him to death on the spot instead of just destroying his martial arts.
It's better to seek refuge with the imperial court. It's better to enjoy the shade under the big tree. The Dragon King Gang won't cause trouble for the time being, and will focus on practicing the Thick Earth Technique first.
Soon, Lu Changsheng started the second simulation.
[At the age of seventeen, you defeated forty-seven bandit villages in a row, and saw through the disguise of the Thousand-Faced Demon Lord in the state government office. Your reputation became great. 】
[Two days later, the Dragon King Gang took away the final item, Houtu Jue, at the Sihai auction. 】
[That night, you sneaked into the Dragon King Gang branch, knocked out the seventh elder of the Dragon King Gang, and stole the Thick Earth Technique. 】
[Half a month later, you came to the capital of Zhao State and wanted to join the Zhao royal family. After showing some of your strength, you successfully became a royal servant. 】
[After that, you start practicing the Thick Earth Technique. 】
[At the age of eighteen, your Thousand Earth Technique has improved. 】
[At the age of twenty, the third prince invites you to have a chat at his house. Since the third prince is a strong contender for the throne, you don’t want to offend him, so you have no choice but to go. 】
[The third prince took you into a secret room. As soon as you entered, the four great sages of the Demon Sect all appeared. You died under the combined attack of the four of them. You died! 】
"Choose one!"
Soon, Lu Changsheng discovered that there was an earthy yellow inner energy in his Dantian. Zhuque Zhenjue noticed something unusual. Just as he was about to make a move, the non-attributed internal force developed by Yi Jingjin separated the two. Zhuque Zhenqi once again Calm was restored.
"It would be nice if the training time was longer."
Lu Changsheng sighed slightly.
Since the Thousand Faced Demon King was deposed, the Demon Cult seemed determined to kill him, even at the risk of exposing a powerful secret agent like the Third Prince.
The third prince colluded with the Demon Cult, right?
OK, I won’t go anywhere next time!
"Continue the simulation!"
[...At the age of seventeen, he has become a member of the Zhao royal family. 】
[At the age of eighteen, your Thousand Earth Technique has improved. 】
【At the age of 20, the Third Prince invited you to his house for a chat, but you politely declined. 】
【At the age of 21, the Third Prince invited you again, but you declined again. 】
【At the age of 22, your Thick Earth Art broke through the innate realm, and your Thick Earth Inner Force transformed into Thick Earth Qi, and you were very happy. 】
【At the age of 23, an old ancestor of the royal family found you and said that you had not gone out to perform tasks for five consecutive years. If you did not complete a task issued by the Zongrenfu again, your qualification for offering sacrifices would be cancelled. You reluctantly agreed. 】
【After that, you followed the imperial army to Xuzhou to quell the rebellion. On the way, the four great masters of the Demon Cult suddenly appeared, and the four of them killed you with a combined attack technique, and you died! 】
"These guys are really annoying. I'll just have to see if I can kill you in the future!"
Lu Chang was so angry that his teeth itched.
"Choose one!"
A stream of extremely pure and heavy Qi rolled down.
Along with it came a lot of experience and skills in controlling the Thick Earth Art, which were accumulated by Lu Changsheng in the simulator for several years.
After all, it was accumulated by practicing in the simulator, and he quickly digested and absorbed the true energy and experience, and his own strength increased again.
What surprised Lu Changsheng was that the quality of the thick earth true energy cultivated to the innate realm was not inferior to the Suzaku true energy.
Even without the neutralization of the attributeless internal force produced by the Yijin Sutra, it could compete with the Suzaku.
Of course, if there was no attributeless internal force, the two would eventually fight to the death.
"There is one last simulation opportunity."
Lu Changsheng was a little uneasy.
With the devil's relentless attack, he didn't know whether he could cultivate to become a master of internal energy this last time.
