Chapter 511 - 511: 14. The Mysterious Commander of the Imperial Palace
Translator: 549690339
He suddenly thought…
He could be said to be the embodiment of the Fire Tribulation Land.
Then, how did the Wu family’s ancestor’s netherworld incarnation come about?
Was he like him?
The Wu family’s ancestor had lived for at least 280,000 years.
He shook his head and threw the thought out of his mind.
Then …
No matter what…
Back then, the Wu family’s ancestor was really innocent when he was killed in an instant by him.
This was probably…
An assassin didn’t have the time to put on the Six God Equipment. Then, when the other party’s Level 4 Combat Technique was only Level 5 in the world, he suddenly became Level 6 and quickly clicked on the big button.
Then, with a series of moves, he directly took away the fragile fifth-level assassin.
“It seems that if you think you’re too awesome, you’ll die.
After all, unless one transcended the universe, overlooked the Great Dao, and ignored the rules, no one was truly invincible.
Whoever is arrogant will die.”
There were two sides to the story.
The sect masters of the five Azure Peak sects had already been selected.
The sect leader was Qin Xiang.
Because Qin Xiang was the only one among the three who was still alive and had completed the mission.
After Fairy Bi’s death, after the spies sent back the terrifying scene of ” many experts disappearing on the spot ” , Qin Xiang continued to carry out the original plan.
He gave many instructions and asked his confidant Meng Shan to go to Qi State to be the state preceptor.
Before he left, Meng Shan had already made all the arrangements for his funeral. He went to the Royal Palace of Qi State with the intention of dying and not returning.
After that, he began to work hard as the state preceptor. Every day, he treated everyone well as if he was walking on thin ice.
The first thing he did when he woke up in the morning was to cheer himself up in front of the mirror. After that, he went to talk to the first person he saw. Whether this person was a palace maid, a eunuch, or just a commoner, he treated them equally. He smiled at everyone and returned the toast to everyone at the banquet without putting on any airs.
At first, Meng Shan was rather stiff, but he was a straightforward man, so he slowly enjoyed it.
After all, his status was there. If you threw peaches at others, others would naturally repay you with plums. If you respected others, others would naturally respect him from the bottom of their hearts.
And then…
Meng Shan was fine.
He was not missing.
He did not die.
The probing ended.
Thus, Qin Xiang understood.
This was not a strange incident brought about by the new killing calamity, nor was it the collusion between the Qi Kingdom and other sects, but …
There was a monster hiding in the palace of Qi State.
As long as he was the state preceptor, this monster would not kill.
The first thing Qin Xiang did after he became the Sect Master was to formulate the “Rules of Acting as the State Preceptor”. He strictly controlled the candidates for the State Preceptor. He was the first to include the “view of ordinary people” and “personal character” into the primary assessment indicators…
As for…
Peak Master Baili died on his way back from the Wan Jian House.
The Wan Jian House was a behemoth in the western world of the northern part of the Cloud Continent.
This stalemate was far deeper than what the five sects of the Green Peak had thought.
On the other side,
Peak Master Chu had disappeared from Sealed River Village just like all the other disciples.
What was different from the other disciples was that Peak Master Chu had used his powerful strength of Level Thirteen to prove one thing. This missing person case was a murder case.
Because he left a bloody handprint on the tree stump at the entrance of Fenghe Village.
The handprint was moving in the opposite direction of the village, leaving behind a glaring trail.
It was as if…
Peak Master Chu, who was covered in blood, seemed to have been dragged back by something.
Hence, Fenghe Village was listed as a forbidden area that could not be approached.
The white-haired monarch naturally understood that the change in the sect’s attitude was due to fear.
No, it was a guardian.
Then, who was this guardian?
Qi Xiu and a few trusted aides carefully investigated the three missing cases. Suddenly, they realized something. “I understand.”
“This subject also understands…”
“I know who the mysterious expert in the Imperial Palace is.”
” This man is very bold and imposing. He has a tall and mighty figure. There are three scars on his left eye, and he is extremely fierce. In every missing case, he is at the scene of the disappearance and is the closest to the target. ”
” That’s right. After the incident, everyone else was shocked and incoherent. However, this person’s voice was as calm as usual. It was as if everything was within his expectations. ‘
“This person…With such a bearing, you’re only an ordinary guard in my palace?”
“Just by looking at his name, I can actually guess a thing or two…Jin Batian, what an overbearing name. How can a person with such a name be an ordinary person?”
“I don’t think we should affect him.”
“I agree.”
Qi Xiu coughed a few times. He rubbed his brows tiredly. His body was getting worse by the day.
He tapped his fingers on the table for a while and said,” I naturally don’t dare to influence him, but I will promote him to the commander of the palace. He will not kneel when he sees me and will be free to come and go. That is good. ”
The title of Grand Commander was only an honorary title. Qi Xiu naturally did not dare to let such a person take care of worldly affairs. In that case, he would give him the privilege of walking in the Imperial Palace.
Hence…
A few days later.
An ordinary guard, Jin Batian, became the commander…His status was extraordinary.
This inexplicable title made many people who were interested understand something.
Even Meng Shan understood.
The Imperial Advisor personally went to visit the Grand Commander.
However, even with the 13 Realms of Meng Mountain, he couldn’t see through the commander’s true strength.
Meng Shan naturally didn’t dare to probe. He carefully interacted with the Great Commander and was later intimidated by the Great Commander’s boldness. After that, he became even more respectful.
He quietly sent the information back to the five sects of Green Peak.
Thus, Qin Xiang also understood.
Once Qin Xiang understood, more people understood.
As time passed, this gradually spread among the higher-ups of the sect.
Jin Batian, the Great Commander of the Qi Kingdom, was an absolutely mysterious expert. He could make two Great Power Realm experts, five Divine Power Realm experts, and ten Dharmakaya Realm experts disappear without a trace…
He attacked silently, and so on.
If he attacked with his full strength, who knew what kind of earth-shattering situation it would cause.
However, it seemed that such a strong person only wanted to live a hermit’s life. The strength he revealed was only that of an ordinary person.
He didn’t want anyone to disturb him.
Immediately after, the name Jin Batian was placed on the list of many sects that could not be provoked…
He became the pillar of the Qi Kingdom’s imperial palace.
Jin Batian was extremely flustered. He did not know what had happened, but since something good had happened, he would claim it and then start pretending..
As he became more and more pretentious, he fell deeper and deeper.
Slowly, he understood.
It turned out that he had been mistaken for the mysterious expert of the Imperial Palace.
He was panicking to the extreme, but it was already too late to back down, so he could only avoid talking to others.
And this further strengthened the prestige of the Great Commander…
The chief commander lived a tiring life every day. He carefully searched for the true mysterious expert.
But he found nothing..
As time passed, the mysterious expert never appeared again, nor did he reveal the truth that he was a fake.
The commander understood that the other party did not like this thing, or perhaps they had tacitly agreed to his existence. Therefore, he could only continue acting with a straight face.
The following spring.
Xia Ji was now ‘seven’.
He was facing the bronze mirror while Little Wu was combing his hair behind him.
Hua Xiaochan looked at him nervously from the side. ” Little Yu, today is the sect’s selection day. Because of that person, the Green Peak Five Sects originally only opened up two slots, but it directly expanded to nine slots.
You’re talented and intelligent. In terms of learning, no one among our brothers and sisters can compare to you. If you’re selected to join the sect this time, you’ll be able to live with an even more transcendent status.”
Xia Ji stretched out his hands, and Xiao Wu helped him put on a fitting robe.
Xia Ji stood up and straightened his clothes in front of the mirror. The reflection was a quiet and flawless boy. Although he was young, he was very calm and unmoved. He was unfazed by the favor and humiliation. His eyes seemed to be filled with the sun, moon, and stars. He was as lofty as a mountain, majestic and majestic.
He looked down on the Green Peak Five Sects.
Moreover, he didn’t want to move before the killing tribulation started.
“Mother, I’ll try my best..”
