King of Assassins
Chapter 413 Entering the Tao
Naturally, Gao Xuan had heard of the three great secrets of Tianbing Dao.
However, he knew very few details. It was Su Ce who told the story today that he found out that there was actually an indestructible golden body preserved by the Thirteenth Queen in the White Tiger Hall.
The strong man from the Thirteen Taibao who lived thousands of years ago was naturally dead long ago. But his golden body is not broken, and he is immortal for thousands of years. This is awesome.
By taking special minerals before death, the body will not decay. After death, through various processing, the body can even be preserved for thousands of years.
However, strong men like the Thirteen Taibao obviously would not use such despicable means to preserve the body. There's no need for that.
Martial arts masters have sharp eyesight. If there is something wrong with the golden body of the Thirteen Taibao, they will not be able to deceive others.
Gao Xuan also understood that what Su Ce said was a disguised invitation.
Six paths and eight disciplines, almost monopolizing all the masters in Daqian. A martial arts master who emerged from the wilderness certainly attracted the attention of all the six realms.
It's just that the Six Paths and Eight Sects haven't found out his identity yet, so it's hard to be too positive.
Gao Xuan immediately smiled and said in admiration: The Thirteen Taibao practiced the Dharma and the golden body has become immortal through the ages. It is really amazing.
He asked again: I wonder if an outsider like me has the opportunity to enter the White Tiger Hall?
Su Ce smiled apologetically: Sorry, only inner disciples can enter the White Tiger Hall.
I see. What a pity.
Gao Xuan sighed, he was not pretending. His foundation is all based on the training of the Thirteen Taibao.
If Baihutang could take a look at the golden body of the Thirteen Taibao, it would be a great gain.
Of the six paths and eight gates, in fact, the most suitable one for him is the Tianbing Mansion. It's just that he doesn't want to become a disciple.
Master does not worship randomly. In this era, master and disciple are like father and son. Becoming a disciple is like recognizing a godfather. Strictly speaking, it is equivalent to recognizing a biological father...
For the sake of a secret technique, it would not be necessary to bring a father back.
Gao Xuan sighed and said: I was raised by my mentor in my early years and was deeply benevolent by him. Master is also an outer disciple of Heavenly Arms Dao. Speaking of which, I am also a successor of Heavenly Arms Dao...
Su Ce and Wan Nan listened carefully.
Nod from time to time.
Wan Nian is a smart person, and Su Ce is even more clumsy on the outside and showy on the inside. They all understood what Gao Xuan meant. He liked Tianbing Dao very much, but he didn't want to become a disciple anymore.
Su Ce and Wan Nandao also understood this very well.
Although Gao Xuan is young, he is a martial arts master. He has reached this point almost by his own efforts, so he is not willing to accept others as his teacher.
Even Martial Saint Gao Xuan may not be willing.
The three of them turned to other topics. When the banquet was over, Wan Nan and Su Ce put Gao Xuan into the carriage.
Wan Nian even got into the carriage. Under his guidance, the carriage arrived at a small courtyard in Xicheng District.
This courtyard is very close to Suzaku Avenue, which runs through the north and south gates of the capital, and is only separated by one street. It can be said to be a good place to find tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle.
The courtyard has three entrances and more than 20 rooms. It's not very big, but it's clean and tidy. The furnishings in the room are also quite tasteful.
Wan Nang led Gao Xuan and Ye Jinxiu to the main room. He smiled and said, This yard is not big, but it is clean. What do you think, Brother Gao?
Gao Xuan nodded and praised: This place is quite elegant and a good place.
I have bought this yard and gave it to Brother Gao as a temporary place to stay.
That's so embarrassing... Gao Xuan gave in humbly.
Brother Gao, it's very inconvenient to live in Dongdaying. This place is clean and quiet, and it's convenient to go anywhere.
Wan Nian said enthusiastically: We are good friends and we must help each other. Brother Gao, please don't refuse.
In that case, you won't be polite.
Gao Xuan smiled casually and took over the courtyard happily.
He could also tell that this yard was not cheap. But he can afford any favor. Nothing to worry about.
Ye Jinxiu felt somewhat embarrassed. She thought this gift was too expensive.
Wan Nian remained calm on the surface, but he admired Gao Xuan in his heart. Although this man came from a poor and lowly place, he had an innate calmness.
Looking at Ye Jinxiu, he also comes from a wealthy family. In contrast, speaking and doing things shows that the pattern is not enough.
The gifts were delivered smoothly, and the relationship between Gao Xuan and Gao Xuan deepened. I was in a very good mood when I left.
After Wan Di left, Ye Jinxiu asked Gao Xuan: It may cost one hundred thousand taels of silver to enter the courtyard three times at this position.
One hundred thousand taels of silver, this is a lot of money.
In the capital, one tael of silver can buy two stones of rice, enough to feed a family of three for half a year. The Ye family has been busy for a year, and in the end they only have thirty or forty thousand taels of silver left.
Gao Xuan said nonchalantly: Friends have the meaning of making money. If you don't have money, investing something in me is nothing. This kind of favor is not for white-collar workers, so it must be repaid.
Ye Jinxiu was relieved, as long as Gao Xuan understood this truth.
Wan Nang helped hire a few maids and servants, an old woman, and a good cook. The courtyard immediately became popular.
I have a fixed residence in the capital, and I live in a high-end community. Neighbors on the left and right are either rich or noble. Not far from the door is the market, where you can buy everything. Going a little further, there are many restaurants.
Gao Xuan had nothing to do during the day, so he took Ye Jinxiu to play in the capital.
He was tested in the world of Jiuzhuan Shenchan, and he had also been to the ancient world. It’s just that I don’t have such a leisurely and relaxing time to take my girls out for fun.
Although the internal situation of Daqian was complicated, overall governance was good, and the dynasty was in a period of upward development.
As the center of the empire, the capital has a population of nearly two million. It is the super metropolis of this era.
There were so many people gathered and there was a lot of food and entertainment.
Although the interstellar era is extremely prosperous, it does not have this pure ancient style.
It was the New Year, and the imperial capital was filled with a festive New Year atmosphere.
Gao Xuan took Ye Jinxiu around, which felt similar to how he took Helen around. Just more relaxed mentally.
As time went by, more and more people came to visit Gao Xuan.
These people have different purposes, some want to win over Gao Xuan, some want to test Gao Xuan's depth, some are dissatisfied with Gao Xuan's reputation, there are all kinds of people.
Gao Xuan dealt with it calmly, and everyone in all aspects could handle it safely. During this period, he also fought twice and defeated two relatively famous innate martial arts masters.
Gao Xuan's extraordinary demeanor and grace have also been appreciated by all parties.
Spring has arrived, the snow has not disappeared, and the wind is getting colder. The festive and noisy atmosphere of the New Year that filled the imperial capital gradually dissipated.
On Xuanhuang Mountain next to the Western Camp of the Imperial Capital, construction of the altar for the Xingtian Ceremony has begun. There are tens of thousands of people busy here.
The Xingtian Ceremony has also become the focus of attention of everyone in the imperial capital.
In the Tianbing Mansion, the master of the palace, Sun Shangdao, was playing chess with Taiwei Pang Tong. The two of them played chess, using the method of killing and attacking.
Sun Shangdao has white hair and white eyebrows. He is wearing a plain black robe and looks elegant. He also plays chess in an upright manner.
So his nickname is Thunder Martial Saint. When it moves, it is like thunder, overwhelming people with majestic force.
Most of the masters in Tianbing Dao are generals of the imperial court.
In this generation, Sun Shangdao is also a Martial Saint, and the Heavenly Arms Dao is becoming more and more powerful among the Six Paths and Eight Sects.
In order to maintain the balance of the imperial court, it was inconvenient for Sun Shangdao, the martial saint, to continue to hold an important position and could only retreat to the Tianbing Mansion. Pang Tong took over the post of Taiwei.
Pang Tong has a square head and square face, and looks rigid and serious. He is a serious person who doesn't like to joke.
The situation in the chess game was not good, and Pang Tong's face became darker and darker.
Sun Shangdao smiled: Don't look at it, you lose.
Pang Tong frowned and pondered for a while before nodding: We lost. He pushed the chessboard and said, I'm feeling depressed and can't play any more.
Why, is there anything going wrong in the court? Sun Shangdao saw Pang Tong's condition and knew that he was in a bad mood.
Pang Tong asked Sun Shangdao: What do you think the Xingtian Ceremony is for? It wastes people and money. Isn't it good to allocate such money to the soldiers at the front?
It can't be said that the Xingtian Ceremony can enhance the country's prestige, gather people's hearts, and boost morale. It can deter neighboring countries.
Sun Shangdao said: If this happens, we can avoid using weapons. It will be a great good thing for the country and the people.
What if it doesn't work?
Pang Tong asked, What if a god of war suddenly appears on the other side?
The opponent really has a martial god, what else can we do, we can only admit defeat.
Sun Shangdao said: In front of the two armies, if the God of War takes action, our army will collapse.
Pang Tong disagreed: That's not true. No matter how strong the God of War is, he is still a human being. What can the God of War do in front of thousands of troops?
Hehehe...
Sun Shangdao laughed, shook his head and said: You don't understand, the Martial God is a god, much more powerful than the Martial Saint. There is no comparison.
Pang Tong also shook his head. He didn't believe what Sun Shangdao said, but he couldn't refute it. After all, no one has ever seen the God of War. According to ancient records, the God of War can literally move mountains and reclaim seas.
But there is no such power in the world!
Pang Tong does not want to fight air against air, so there is no point in discussing it. He said: Wusheng Dao and Taiyi Dao are very dishonest, including Shifang Dao. I think they have close contacts with the princes, and I am afraid they are plotting evil!
Your Majesty is in the prime of his life and has extraordinary intelligence. At this time, the prince who speculates is seeking death.
Sun Shangdao said: We only need to take good care of Your Majesty and don't care about anything else.
Pang Tong still shook his head: Let me say something unlucky, I think there is something wrong with this Xingtian Festival. Zuo Bubei and Luo Tiangang are even more...
Before Pang Tong could finish speaking, Sun Shangdao interrupted him: Wu Sheng has a whim, so don't mention their names.
He paused and then said: In this world we can only control ourselves, what other people want to do is their business.
Sun Shangdao didn't want to discuss these. He also knew that Taiyi Dao and Shifang Dao had frequently made small moves in recent years.
The emperor felt that these large sects did not engage in production and labor, but relied on amassing wealth without paying taxes, which greatly damaged the imperial finances. He even violated court laws.
In the past few years, they have continued to put pressure on Wusheng Dao, Taiyi Dao, and Shifang Dao, and their attacks have become more and more ruthless. The interests of these major sects were damaged and they were unable to directly confront the emperor, so they had to resort to some tricks behind the scenes.
However, among the six paths and eight gates, only the Immortal Path, the Taiyi Path, and the Ten Directions Path spread doctrines and attract believers. It’s not that easy for these three families to cause trouble.
Sun Shangdao believed that the emperor was completely in control of the overall situation. Even though Zuo Bubei and Luo Tiangang were martial saints, they could not act against heaven.
Since ancient times, conspiracies and tricks have never achieved great things.
Sun Shangdao didn't want to talk about this anymore, so he turned to say: Yes, have you seen Gao Xuan?
We met at Tie Yue's family banquet that day.
Pang Tong thought for a moment and commented: He is majestic in appearance and extraordinary in spirit. He is a man.
oh.
Sun Shangdao was a little surprised. Pang Tong was a very serious person and he didn't know how to joke. Not to mention flattering others at will.
He has known Pang Tong for decades, and there are not many people who can get such high praise from Pang Tong.
Sun Shangdao said: Gao Xuan's situation has been investigated clearly. He grew up in Tongcheng since he was a child, and learned the Thirteen Taibao Heng training method from Sun Yingping. If Sun Yingping is also a disciple of our Tianbing Dao, it really depends on his seniority than me. Senior generation...
Outer disciples like Sun Yingping actually do not become disciples. Just follow the head coach to practice martial arts. Strictly speaking, he is not considered a disciple of the chief instructor.
There are hundreds of thousands of disciples of the outer sect of Tianbing Dao. These outer disciples have left the Heavenly Arms Dao, but actually have little to do with the Heavenly Arms Dao.
This is the case with Sun Yingping. His martial arts skills were mediocre and he was exiled to Tongcheng, where he eventually died of hunger and cold. The ending sounds a bit miserable.
The key is to find out Gao Xuan's origins. He is indeed a disciple of Tianbing Dao Gaiden. The origins and inheritance are clear.
Pang Tong was a little doubtful: If you pass through the outer sect, can you become a martial arts master? What's more, at Gao Xuan's age?
Sun Shangdao waved his hand and said: When I practice the Thirteen Taibao horizontal training method, it is always difficult to master it. But I can learn Tianbing strategy instantly. Everyone's talent is different.
Tao Master plans to accept Gao Xuan as a disciple? Pang Tong admired Gao Xuan very much, and a young martial arts master had a bright future. Incoming Heavenly Soldier Dao is also a big help.
Sun Shangdao said: Gao Xuan is already a martial arts master at a young age, so he is naturally very high-spirited. I will accept a disciple and a junior disciple on my behalf.
Pang Tong was shocked: This is inappropriate. As old as Gao Xuan is, he will be your junior brother. The seniority will be messed up.
Extraordinary people use extraordinary methods.
Sun Shangdao smiled and said: You said just now that I don't know how to adapt. Now I am stuck in the old rules.
Pang Tong said with some worry: I'm afraid that Gao Xuan started halfway and has no teacher, so he has no sense of belonging to our Heavenly Arms Way.
With me here, I will naturally teach him how to behave and do things.
Sun Shangdao is very confident in this. He is a great martial arts saint. Even if he does not have the title of master, he will still have no problem managing Gao Xuan.
Moreover, he would have no problem living for another fifty or sixty years. If Gao Xuan acts like a monster, he can always deal with him.
The Heavenly Arms Dao has no successor, and it is deeply in conflict with Taiyi Dao, Wusheng Dao, and Shifang Dao. At this time, it is necessary to attract new forces.
What's more, Master Gao Xuan gave birth to Sun Yingping. After all, he was one of his own. During this month, he observed Gao Xuan's behavior and also admired Gao Xuan quite a bit. He believed that he would not see the wrong person.
Although Pang Tong felt that this matter was a bit hasty, Sun Shangdao had made a decision, and of course he could not stop it. This is a good thing after all.
On the same day, Gao Xuan received an invitation written by Sun Shangdao himself, inviting him to a banquet at Tianbing Mansion.
Gao Xuan was not surprised. The Six Paths and Eight Sects had been waiting for almost a month, so there should be news.
In fact, Wu Sheng Dao, Shan Zi Sect, and Shui Zi Sect all offered him very generous conditions. In particular, Shanzimen Tieyue admired him very much.
Tie Yue was an upright and polite person, and he was also somewhat generous and heroic. The conversation between Gao Xuan and Tie Yue was quite speculative. If it weren't for the different paths, Gao Xuan would have chosen the Shanzimen.
Of course, if the Tianbing Mansion fails to reach an agreement, Gao Xuan will definitely choose the Shanzimen.
As one of the eight sects, Shanzimen has three great spears in addition to the Five Mountains Spear, all of which are peerless marksmanship. It's just that future generations are incompetent. Although the three great spears have not been lost, only Tie Yue of this generation has mastered the Kunlun Spear.
Gao Xuan felt sorry for them. It was better to give him the other two marksmanship skills...
In fact, the Thirteen Taibao horizontal training method was originally equipped with a gun. Gao Xuan felt that it would be no problem for him to get the other two divine spears and become a martial arts saint.
Sun Shangdao, the Thunder Martial Saint of Heavenly Arms Dao, sent the invitation personally, which already showed the attitude of Heavenly Arms Dao.
Gao Xuan believed that a big shot like Sun Shangdao must be well prepared before sending out invitations. This thing is almost done.
That afternoon, Gao Xuan and Ye Jinxiu arrived at Tianbing Mansion by car.
Tianbing Mansion is just outside the West City, at the foot of Xuanhuang Mountain. The entire Tianbing Mansion covers an area of dozens of acres and is quite impressive.
Su Ce led everyone to greet him at the gate. After both parties greeted him politely, they entered the Tianbing Mansion through the gate.
Only when Gao Xuan entered the Tianbing Mansion did he realize that there were no gardens, ponds or the like inside. Tianbing Mansion is more like a huge military camp. Most people coming and going wear military uniforms or armor. It looks murderous.
In the banquet hall, there was only a huge white tiger screen as a display.
Gao Xuan just arrived at the banquet hall. Sun Shangdao and Pang Tong arrived today.
Gao Xuan had met Pang Tong and knew that he was the commander-in-chief of the court and had military power in the imperial court. A real big shot. Sun Shangdao, he has never seen it, but he knows the reputation of this Thunder Martial Saint.
Gao Xuan was very humble and took the initiative to salute and say hello. Sun Shangdaolang smiled and helped Gao Xuan up: I have heard about the name for a long time, he is indeed a great person, he is indeed a great person!
This was the first time for Sun Shangdao to meet Gao Xuan, although he had heard Pang Tong praise him before. But seeing Gao Xuanxuan's elegant appearance and graceful appearance, his eyes lit up.
Such a man is truly a hero.
Sun Shangdao and Gao Xuan hit it off at first sight, and they chatted for a few words at the table, feeling even more like they were late to meet each other.
Sun Shangdao was very satisfied with Gao Xuan. He only felt that this man was young and from a humble background, but he had a grand demeanor in his work. This is something that even Pang Tong cannot compare with.
Moreover, his conversation is extraordinary and his insights are brilliant. Although there are many masters of Tianbing Dao, they are either crude, arrogant, or not visionary enough, and they always have various shortcomings. Compared with Gao Xuan, it is much worse.
The more Sun Shangdao watched it, the more he liked it, and he immediately mentioned Sun Yingping's past events.
Gao Xuan immediately understood what Sun Shangdao meant and expressed his admiration for Tianbingdao.
Sun Shangdao immediately said: Sun Yingping is my uncle according to seniority. It's just that he is in the outer sect and has not been naturalized. I can accept you as a disciple on behalf of the teacher. If you return to the Heavenly Arms Dao, it will fulfill Uncle Sun's wish.
Gao Xuan immediately stood up and bowed: Thank you, senior brother, for your support.
Sun Shangdao immediately led Gao Xuan to the Ancestral Master Hall and asked Gao Xuan to kneel down and kowtow incense in front of his master.
At the end of the ceremony, Sun Shangdao gave Gao Xuan a dark gold tiger talisman with his name engraved on it. The front is engraved with the Way of Heavenly Soldiers.
Gao Xuan solemnly took over the tiger talisman, and everyone around him came up to congratulate him.
From this moment on, Gao Xuan became the official successor of Tianbing Dao and the junior disciple of Sun Shangdao. This status standard is high.
The next day, the news that Gao Xuan joined the Heavenly Arms Path spread throughout the six paths and eight gates.
In the Main Hall of Leiyin Temple in Shifang Dao, Zuo Bubei stood quietly in front of the golden body of Buddha, with his eyes slightly lowered and his expression indifferent.
A Wusheng old mother beside him looked gloomy: Gao Xuan entered the Heavenly Weapon Way, what should I say about this?
A mere martial arts master cannot change the overall situation. There is no need to care.
Zuo Bubei said calmly: We will act according to the plan. When the Xingtian Festival is held, it will be the day when the emperor returns to the west. If Sun Shangdao understands the current situation, he will spare his life. If he does not know whether to live or die, he will destroy the Heavenly Arms Dao together...
