Dragon Soul Heroes - Chapter 20: The Perils of Confucianism and Martial Arts

The Confucian warrior challenged him, and the Qilin responded. With a long spear of white feathers, it unleashed its divine power, and the vast energy swept through the clouds, instantly forming a huge and majestic Qilin image, which roared and pounced towards the Confucian warrior giant god.
The Confucian martial arts giant waved his hand, unleashing a torrent of yang energy. Several fireballs shot from his palm, as powerful as the blazing sun. Bai Lingyu, spear in hand, swept the fireballs away, but was secretly astonished by his opponent's strength.
Mingxue said calmly, "Princess Protector, let me probe the enemy's situation!"
Having said that, she floated out gracefully, her sleeves fluttering lightly. A chilling wind blew, and a blizzard began to fall within a radius of ten miles, the cold penetrating to the bone. With a flick of Mingxue's jade finger, the snowflakes immediately flew towards the Confucian Martial Giant God, instantly turning him into a large snowball.
However, the Confucian and Martial God was full of yang energy and his power was in operation. He immediately generated a surging purple light and scorching flames, which melted the snowball completely.
Just as the snow melted and the ice thawed, Mingxue's eyes suddenly lit up, radiating a crystal-clear brilliance. This was the ultimate technique of the Ice Marrow Force—Frosty Ice Eyes. Only demons possessing the essence of the Snow Clan could use this move. The move first covered the enemy's body with ice and snow. If the enemy tried to resist, they would inevitably resist the ice and snow. Frosty Ice Eyes would then observe the state of the snow and calculate the approximate distribution of the enemy's power. However, this move required a large-scale snowfall before it could be used, which greatly depleted her true essence. Like the Heaven-Locking Force of the Heaven-Mending Technique, it was once considered a useless move. But with the unlocking of the God-Sealing Seal, Mingxue's power greatly increased. With a casual wave of her hand, she could freeze thousands of miles. Thus, Frosty Ice Eyes became a unique skill.
In her icy gaze, Mingxue saw the Confucian Martial Giant God's entire body surging with yang energy, with the most intense energy concentrated in his dantian. She thought to herself, "According to classical records, the Confucian Martial Giant God's internal meridians are no different from those of a living person. It seems that he also uses his dantian as a place to store energy, but the capacity is astonishingly large, which is why he can unleash such powerful strength."
She glanced at it a few more times and noticed that there seemed to be a mass of yang energy inside Ruwu's dantian. However, it was tightly wrapped by the yang energy outside and was not very conspicuous. Upon closer inspection, she realized that this yang energy was not pure and definitely did not belong to Ruwu's original yang energy. Therefore, it was most likely the person who controlled Ruwu.
Seeing this, she conveyed the matter to Bai Lingyu through her mind. Bai Lingyu understood immediately, so he raised his spear and changed his stance, unleashing a surge of divine power that pulled the surrounding clouds and mist together. At the same time, he poured in his true energy, and the clouds and mist instantly materialized. Bai Lingyu swung his spear, and the clouds and mist crashed hard towards the Confucian Martial Giant God.
With a swift movement of its fist, the giant god dispersed the clouds imbued with the divine power of the Qilin, while the residual power of the Yang Fire spread for thousands of feet.
The other party was trying to establish their authority, but Bai Lingyu responded with a cold laugh, raising an eyebrow and saying contemptuously, "You think you can swagger around just because you're wrapped in a tortoise shell?"
As the laughter subsided, the silver spear flicked, unleashing a series of rapid movements. The dispersed clouds transformed into countless iron chains, forming the sealing technique of the Qilin Seven Star Spear. This spear technique primarily aims to block the enemy's attacks and restrict their movements. Each of these cloud chains contains the divine power of the Qilin, far surpassing the toughness of mortal iron chains, firmly binding the Confucian warrior's limbs and joints, limiting his movements.
As the cloud chains locked onto the enemy, the five demons moved and immediately launched an attack. Wolf Howler clenched his fist and extended several bone spikes, which was the demonic technique of the Bone Forging Scripture - Mysterious Bone Armor Breaking! The bone spikes suddenly nailed into the armor of the Confucian Martial God, but failed to penetrate. The giant god's armor trembled and was about to remove the bone spikes.
At that moment, Zhi Guan and Chi Shi simultaneously unleashed their Lion King Fist, their combined force striking the bone spikes and propelling them forward, forcefully piercing into the armor.
Bai Zhan also revealed his colossal demon form, his enormous trunk sweeping across Ru Wu's waist, blasting the giant away.
Ju Wu flew back several feet, then unleashed the Purple Sun True Fire, instantly stabilizing himself. From within came Gao Hong's triumphant, sinister laugh: "Are you trying to tickle me?"
Bai Lingyu snorted, "You clown! You're so smug because you have the help of this divine artifact. You're shameless!"
Gao Hong snorted coldly, and Ru Wu raised his palm and swept it out. The palm energy transformed into a vast universe, and purple smoke rose all around, trapping Bai Lingyu and the Golden Scale Guards in one space.
Bai Lingyu was slightly taken aback. Seeing that the other side seemed to be going to fight them like cornered beasts, she thought to herself: Could it be that this guy surnamed Gao thinks he can defeat them with just a Confucian and Martial God? Thinking of this, she immediately ordered the Golden Scale Guards to set up a defensive formation and prepare to fight the Confucian and Martial Gods to the death.
The Golden Scale Guards are arranged according to the principles of Heaven and Earth, forming thirty-three layers of defense. These defenses are further connected by the principle of nine-nine transformations. This formation is called the Thirty-Three Heavenly Gate Formation. It is a formation created by Hongjun through the refinement of Taoist doctrines. It connects to the heavens above and draws in the earth's energy below. Furthermore, it can take advantage of external forces to absorb external attacks and transform them into the formation's kinetic energy, thus reinforcing the formation.
Just then, thousands of figures emerged from the depths of the purple smoke, led by the Holy Mother Haotian, who commanded three thousand Haotian followers.
Bai Lingyu was slightly taken aback, but immediately understood. She sneered, "I thought this purple smoke barrier was meant to be a trap for a fight between trapped beasts, but it turns out it's just a way to cover up your bunch of rats who can't stand the light of day!"
The Holy Mother of the Jade Heaven retorted, "You brat, wait until you're reduced to ashes, then let's see how stubborn you'll be!"
Gao Hong said, "Mother, please don't be angry. Take down this little slut and then torture her slowly, making that man surnamed Long suffer unbearable pain!"
Bai Lingyu grew increasingly enraged as she listened, and roared, "You ungrateful scoundrel, we'll see who suffers the most in the end!"
With a furious roar, he twirled his spear, and lightning flashed as it pierced through the air, its tip gleaming with a sharp light, transforming into a thousand-foot-long spear that fiercely thrust towards Ru Wu's dantian.
"presumptuous!"
The Holy Mother Haotian, deeply concerned for her son, stepped forward. With a wave of her sleeve, five-colored auspicious clouds gathered and formed a strong and resilient protective wall, which even Bai Lingyu, with his astonishing divine power, could not break through.
Then, the Holy Mother Haotian unleashed her true essence, causing the cloud of mist to explode and the sharp energy to sweep back the enemy.
Bai Lingyu used a spinning spear stance, turning the circle into a defense, blocking all the sharp force in front of her, but her arm was numb from the shock, and she was secretly alarmed: "This poisonous woman once made Bing'er suffer a loss, I must be careful."
She composed herself, refrained from reckless advances, and led her troops to firmly defend the line. The five great demons also retreated with her into the Thirty-Three Heavenly Gate Formation.
The Holy Mother Haotian, having gained the upper hand, immediately ordered her disciples to launch a fierce attack on the Heavenly Gate's protective formation. She directed her disciples to switch positions from left to right, launching a flanking attack with an initial chaotic yet orderly offensive.
Bai Lingyu remained calm and immediately instructed his subordinates to change formation and respond: "Emperor Huang Zengtian!"
The Golden Scale Guards moved in steps, shifting positions and exchanging places. With everyone of one mind, the five elements of human, demon, Confucian, Taoist, and Buddhist energy merged and merged, becoming one with each other, transforming into a vast and boundless celestial river, instantly blocking the Haotian Cult members from entering.
The Thirty-Three Heavens are divided into the Six Heavens of the Desire Realm, the Eighteen Heavens of the Form Realm, the Four Heavens of the Formless Realm, the Four Brahma Heavens, and the Three Pure Heavens. This formation changes with the stars in the heavens and contains boundless power. The Haotian Sect followers find it difficult to cross the line, and their repeated attacks have all been repelled.
Seeing this, Gao Hong became very impatient and was about to ride the Confucian Martial Giant God to help in the battle, but the Holy Mother of Haotian frowned and said, "My child, you should hold back for now and let your mother send someone to test the waters again."
Gao Hong smiled and said, "Mother, there's no need to worry. Let me go and break the formation, so as to save unnecessary waste."
The Holy Mother Haotian was quite worried and transmitted her voice, saying, "You have just unlocked the Meridian Locking Technique... Although your strength has greatly increased, the hidden dangers in your body have not been eliminated. If you act rashly like this, there may be unexpected complications."
This Meridian Locking Technique is a secret technique used by the Haotian Sect to suppress one's cultivation. It can cause a person's cultivation to plummet, leaving them with almost no martial energy. This can be used to conceal one's identity, which is why Gao Hong was able to deceive the world by pretending to be a weak scholar. Similarly, the Haotian Holy Mother used this technique to deceive Huangfu Wuji. Once the Meridian Locking Technique is broken, the suppressed power will rebound, breaking through the limits of the martial meridians and greatly increasing one's cultivation. It can be said to be an extreme technique.
Ever since Gao Hong was implanted with the Yin-Yang Gu by Chu Wanbing, he has been hiding in the Ruwu Sect for refuge. Even though the magic seal was broken and his power increased greatly, he was still unable to get rid of the hidden danger of the Gu poison. He felt very frustrated about this. Now, seeing people related to Long Hui and Chu Wanbing, he was filled with rage and wished he could tear them to pieces. So he rode the Ruwu Giant God and rushed over, fiercely facing the Heavenly Gate Guardian Formation.
天门再度变幻，人、妖、儒、道、佛五种不同的元气散布于五行方位，化出周天五象，再建奇功，力阻儒武神威。
儒武巨神手掌被气流挡住，拍打出震耳欲聋的声音，高鸿欲再催神力，打破护阵隔绝，然而天门护阵内各族精气流转，相辅相成，自有不绝元力，只要儒武巨神力强一分，三十三重天门阵便生三分韧性，饶儒武巨神力大无穷，阳火沛然，也难破天门护阵。
昊天圣母见僵持不下，于是便传音给高鸿道：“凌云，不要再同这些喽啰纠缠，先夺回丹东虞城要紧！”
高鸿回道：“娘亲，待孩儿收拾了这些人再下去夺回城池也不迟！”
昊天圣母略带愠怒，沉声道：“你连为娘的话也不听了吗？你可还记得此次出战的目的？”
高鸿见母亲动怒，不敢忤逆，当即散去紫气结界，驾驭儒武降落地面，准备对付地面的龙麟军。
昊天圣母暗忖道：“你们天上的兵将厉害，本宫就不信你地上的人也有这般能耐，可以挡住儒武巨神！”
看到儒武降落地面，全身绽放紫光灼炎，她心里一阵欣慰，朱唇不由勾出一丝笑意，指挥昊天教众道：“众弟子听命，退至云中，随时准备接应太子！”
白翎羽见儒武调转枪头对付地面部队，便要领军杀去支援，然而此时却听到龙辉意念传音：“小羽儿，此战作罢，率军撤退。”
她甚是不解，回问道：“这时怎么会回事？”
龙辉道：“儒武实力我已大致得知，你们金麟卫虽能力保不失，但其他部队却未必有这能耐，再打下去，只是徒增我军伤亡！”
白翎羽甚是不忿，问道：“那丹东跟虞城呢？就这么还给他们吗？”
龙辉道：“还就还，有何不可，不必计较一城一地的得失！不用多想了，立即撤军！”
军令如山，白翎羽也不敢再有异议，当即下令鸣金收兵。
雷火二部、雾隐军、陌刀骑和弓弩骑接到命令后，便收敛杀意，且战且退，有条不紊地朝后方退去。
白翎羽则领金麟卫断后，阻挡儒武巨神。
回到营地，白翎羽清点兵力，出战的兵马并未受到太大损伤，减员不到两百，也算是一个漂亮仗，但想到刚抢来的城池就这么拱手让人，心里颇为难受。
她入帅帐后见只有龙辉一人，不由得大发娇嗔，连连跺脚，龙辉不禁莞尔道：“小羽儿，谁惹你生气啦？”
白翎羽气鼓鼓地往椅子上一坐，双手交叉在胸，哼道：“姓高的和老巫婆！”
龙辉扑哧一笑，虎着脸道：“白副帅，速速将军情给本帅呈上，若是延误军情，定重惩不饶！”
白翎羽被他逗笑了，于是起身行军礼道：“末将遵命，详情听说！”
她也分得清缓急，便将详细战况一一回报。
龙辉听后倒是有些诧异，奇道：“朝廷军不过是首战失利，便祭出儒武巨神，已经有些不妥，如今连昊天圣母都亲临战场，此等举措跟毫无昔日的沉稳，显得甚是急功近利，难不成他们再打什么主意？”
正所谓反常即为妖，龙辉对此不得不小心警戒。
帐帘被人掀起，两道婀娜仙影悄然走入，夹杂着淡雅幽香，令人眼前一亮，正是于秀婷跟魏雪芯母女二人。
于秀婷为救魏剑鸣，曾把天剑谷剑谱交给魔尊，从那以后她就一直在研究新的剑法，经过多番演练和实战后，她总算推陈纳新，理出新的剑术总纲，之后再加上女儿相助，天剑新法总算大成，于是她们便赶回剑谷将新的剑术传授给众弟子。
爱郎分别了一阵时日，如今再见，两人芳心不免一阵羞喜，脸颊不禁一晕，但看到白翎羽在一侧，便压住心中情意。
于秀婷倒是老练许多，依旧以昔日不温不火的语气说道：“我跟雪芯刚从天剑谷回来，得知龙麟军发兵攻击，战果如何？”
龙辉摇了摇头，笑道：“本来取下两城，但又被儒武巨神打了回去。”
于秀婷剑眉轻蹙，露出一丝罕见的忧虑，正是替龙辉担忧。
这份细微的表情却是叫白翎羽暗吃一惊，在她印象中，这超凡出尘的剑道仙子无论何时都是那般娴雅，不慌不乱，从容自如，忧虑愁容岂能挂在她丰润成熟的脸颊之上。
她再细看一二，发觉于秀婷原本冰清若玉的脸颊多了几分晕红，再看看跟自己甚有默契的魏雪芯，发觉于谷主的气色跟自己的姐妹有几分相似，都是那般雨润多情，神采焕发，叫她颇为好奇。
“翎羽，你没受伤吧？”
魏雪芯拉过白翎羽关怀地问道，白翎羽虽是女子，但行事爽朗，颇有男儿风，对那些琐事也不甚在意，听闻姐妹问候自己，立即回应道：“倒也没什么，只是那儒武巨神的威力似乎比以往更加厉害。”
魏雪芯道：“孟公子曾说过，儒武巨神内藏聚阳阵法，再以巧匠制造出类似于人体的脉络筋骨，藉此运转阳气，就像一个武林高手一样，因此也会遭到封神法印的限制，如今法印解开，它的实力增强也不是怪事。”
白翎羽道：“有这么个东西在敌阵，对咱们实在是个威胁，难道真的奈何不了他？”
龙辉接口笑道：“并非如此，当初它不是被诛仙剑阵打得抱头鼠窜吗？依我看来，只要用诛仙剑阵将它困住，不愁收拾不了它！”
其实龙辉心里也有底，儒武虽然强悍，但这边有仙妖二后、鹭明鸾、袁齐天、净尘、元鼎以及他自己等七大破虚高手，此等阵容已经超越了太荒时期的三教巅峰，再者还有大鹏金雕和化龙成功的五爪金龙，外加数百条蛟龙，以及魏雪芯、林碧柔、白翎羽、凌霄等天人巅峰的高手，一拥而上，不顾后果地猛攻，自然可将儒武巨神连同波旬、策皇图、尹方犀等敌军顶端战力尽数摧毁，可是这种做法便是杀敌一千自损八百，日后便无足够实力压制魔煞两族，后患无穷。
于秀婷道：“当初剑阵可是需要五个人联手才能发动，但如今冰儿尚未出关，要运使剑阵恐怕有些不现实。”
魏雪芯道：“娘亲，当初是大哥因为仅有先天修为，真气难免不足，如今大哥都已经成就破虚武神，要驾驭诛仙剑阵应该不难！”
龙辉却摇头道：“当初我只想起前世的零星事情，对剑阵的领悟也十分有限，当初还真以为必须要有足够真气才能驾驭剑阵，其实不然，这诛仙剑阵乃是融合天道之理，圆通自如，非力强者能驯服，唯有跟其剑意合流才能纯属施展剑阵。就算我们实力大增，要启动剑阵还是得由四人各持一剑，一人为居阵眼，调控剑意。”
听到这里，白翎羽插口道：“现在冰儿还在闭关，也就是说诛仙剑阵无法使用，那么咱们岂不是要眼睁睁地看着那儒武巨神放肆了？”
龙辉道：“就算冰儿出关，高鸿那贼厮吃过一次诛仙剑阵的亏，依照他的性子，一旦遇上不妥只怕会立马逃走，那儒武巨神一心突围，咱们可是拦不住的！”
听到这里，白翎羽越感憋屈，这时一阵阴阳怪气的声音在外响起：“公主殿下，老奴命人给您熬了一碗燕窝粥，您行军辛苦，且吃点东西补补身子吧！”
说话之人正是王公公，他捧着一盅燕窝粥弓着身子走进来。
白翎羽正待气闷，随口便说道：“士兵们不过是吃些粗米糟糠，我身为副帅岂能食此精粮，王公公，你快端下去吧！”
王公公不禁有些尴尬，龙辉便笑道：“难得公公这般心意，小羽儿，你便不要推辞了，你快些吃了吧。”
白翎羽撇了撇嘴道：“不吃！”
龙辉叹道：“小羽儿，王公公伺候先帝多年，对先帝除了忠心之外，更是无形中生出不少亲情在内，平日里只是不说而已，如今先帝含冤未申，王公公自是把一腔温情倾注在你身上，你这般说话岂不是寒了公公一番心意。”
白翎羽微微一愣，回头望向王公公，发觉他鬓发苍白，走起路来也驼背了许多，气息粗重而略显凌乱，似乎封神法印的解开并未对他有太多益处。
“王公公，是我不好，你莫要生气！”
白翎羽急忙接过燕窝粥，满脸懊悔地道歉，王公公受宠若惊，忙道：“公主莫要如此，可是折煞老奴也！”
白翎羽将燕窝粥吃了干净，王公公则垂着手弯着腰在一旁看着。
Long Hui glanced at him, his face darkening, and said in a low voice, "Eunuch Wang, have you been experiencing a sharp pain in your chest recently?"
Eunuch Wang was very curious and asked, "How did the Prince Consort know?"
Long Hui sighed, "The energy in your body is extremely chaotic. Although your true energy is vast, it shows signs of going into qi deviation. If you don't take proper care of it, you may be in mortal danger."
In fact, Long Hui didn't say another part: Wang Gonggong had been castrated since childhood, causing his body to be imbalanced in yin and yang for many years. In addition, the inner palace was full of eunuchs and resentful women, making his life very repressive and causing his illness to accumulate. Moreover, the martial arts he practiced were also biased towards yin and poison, which over the years left him with a fatal hidden danger. Now that the seal has been broken, the true energy in his body is so powerful that it is difficult to control. It has once again surged against his heart meridian, making his injuries even worse and his life in danger.
Eunuch Wang chuckled and said, "This old servant is but a eunuch, yet I have received the late emperor's favor and enjoyed all the riches and honors. Even high-ranking officials, dukes, and marquises have to give way to this old servant. I can say that I have lived a worthwhile life!"
Long Hui glanced at him a few times, feeling a pang of sorrow in his heart. This old eunuch had served Huangfu Wuji since childhood. In the inner palace, everyone was either a eunuch or a resentful woman, and their mental state was not quite normal, which made him extremely withdrawn. In addition, Huangfu Wuji had strictly forbidden eunuchs from associating with outsiders, so even though he was very wealthy, he was all alone. The only person he could be close to was his high and mighty master. Now that Huangfu Wuji had passed away, he had no relatives or friends by his side and was even more lonely. Fortunately, he still had Princess Bai Lingyu, a member of the royal family, to keep him company, so that he would not be miserable and alone in his old age.
Long Hui said, "Even ants try to survive. Now that the late emperor's great revenge has not been avenged, are you really willing to just give up and go to your death like this, Eunuch?"
Eunuch Wang shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Of course I'm unwilling, but life and death are in the hands of fate, and when my time comes, I have no choice but to accept it."
Long Hui took out a pill from his pocket and handed it to Eunuch Wang: "Since you are unwilling to pass away, then take good care of your health. This is the Yin-Yang Mystic Pill, which is made from the roots, stems, branches and leaves of the Yin-Yang Flower. It can harmonize the vital energy in your body. You should take this pill and not engage in any violence for half a year. Practice breathing exercises day and night, and you will be able to cure your illness."
The eunuch was deeply grateful, and upon receiving the medicine, he repeatedly bowed and thanked the prince consort, saying, "Thank you so much for the medicine, Your Highness!"
Long Hui said, "You're too kind, Father-in-law. Actually, I have some things I'd like to ask you."
Eunuch Wang asked in surprise, "I am but a servant; what advice could I possibly give to the Prince Consort?"
Long Hui said, "Now that Cang Shitian has been on the throne for a long time, he naturally considers himself the emperor. You served the late emperor for many years and know a little about the emperor's thoughts and mentality. Please tell us about it."
Eunuch Wang said, "Well... Ah, Your Highness, please ask. This old servant will answer to the best of my knowledge!"
Long Hui said, "After the new emperor ascends the throne, will he become arrogant and conceited, and act somewhat disrespectfully towards others?"
Eunuch Wang frowned and asked, "Why does Your Highness ask such a question?"
Long Hui then recounted the battle that had just taken place. Eunuch Wang frowned and sighed, "So that's what the Prince Consort meant."
Long Hui said, “It is precisely because the Haotian Sect’s actions today are so reckless that I find it very puzzling! Could it be because Cang Shitian has just ascended the throne, but because he failed to 'suppress the rebellion' and made several great contributions, he lost the respect of his subordinates and thus felt ashamed, so he launched a full-scale attack.”
Eunuch Wang said, "When the late emperor first ascended the throne, he was full of ambition and wanted to do great things, but he was not impatient. He acted very steadily and practically."
Yu Xiuting interjected, "Hui'er, Cang Shitian has endured for decades, and his patience has reached its peak. It's impossible for him to suddenly become impatient for quick success and act rashly. Your deduction is not quite appropriate."
She spoke casually, but her heart was with Long Hui, and she couldn't help but call him by his private nickname.
Eunuch Wang stroked his smooth, beardless chin, frowning as he said, "What Valley Master said makes a lot of sense. Cang Shitian wouldn't be greedy for merit and act rashly, so it's possible that his subordinates acted on their own. But given Cang Shitian's methods of managing his subordinates, who would dare to disobey his orders..."
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he slapped his thigh, saying, "Hey, I've got a clue! But I don't know if it's reasonable."
Long Hui said, "As the saying goes, we should pool our wisdom and ideas. Please speak freely, Father-in-law!"
Eunuch Wang swallowed hard and said, "This old servant has thought of something. Could it be that Cang Shitian's wife acted on her own?"
Long Hui became interested and continued to ask, "Please continue in detail, sir!"
Eunuch Wang said, "This old servant has lived in the deep palace for a long time and has seen many times the concubines vying for favor and the sons fighting for the throne. Those imperial concubines will stop at nothing to become empresses and to ensure that their sons can enter the Eastern Palace."
Long Hui said, "Does Your Excellency mean that the Holy Mother Haotian is going to help my son seize the throne?"
Eunuch Wang said, "Based on what the princess saw today, and the unusual behavior of the Haotian Sect traitors, this old servant thinks that woman is somewhat similar to the concubines in the harem."
Long Hui said, "That wicked woman has been lurking in the palace for more than ten years, and she has picked up some of the habits of the women in the harem. Your deduction is quite reasonable. However, everyone knows that Gao Hong was born an orphan. How could he possibly become a member of the royal family? Even if Cang Shitian publicly acknowledges him as his son, outsiders will not recognize his royal bloodline. How could he become the crown prince!"
Eunuch Wang said, "When King Xia was young, he indulged in worldly pleasures and had many illicit affairs among the common people. Everyone in the capital knows about it. As long as Cang Shitian uses this as an excuse to say that Gao Hong is his illegitimate son, he can have a legitimate claim!"
Hearing this, Long Hui said gratefully, "What you said today, Father-in-law, is truly invaluable advice. Thank you so much!"
Eunuch Wang quickly responded modestly.
Seeing that it was late at night, Long Hui told Eunuch Wang to go back and rest, while he continued to sit at his desk, his brows furrowed, deep in thought.
Bai Lingyu said, "Long Hui, you seem to have something on your mind."
Long Hui sighed, "There seem to be some key points about this matter that I haven't figured out yet, and I feel quite distressed about it."
Wei Xuexin said, "Big brother, since you can't figure it out, take a rest first. You've been working so hard day and night, you need to take care of your health!"
Long Hui said, "It's alright. Your husband is now a Void Breaking Martial God, an existence with an immortal physical body."
Wei Xuexin laughed and said, "Big brother, although we have transcended the mortal realm, Suya is still just a mortal after all. Her way of thinking and considering things hasn't changed. If she knows that you're working day and night, she will definitely worry. It would be bad if it affected the fetus!"
Long Hui laughed and said, "Xue Xin is absolutely right. I was being presumptuous!"
When Qin Suya was mentioned as pregnant, he immediately thought of what Cui Die had told him before—establishing a legitimate heir to settle the matter!
A sudden realization struck him, and he slapped his thigh, exclaiming, "Haha, so that's it! I finally understand! Tonight's events were both the Holy Mother of the Jade Heaven's own doing and the tacit approval of the Heavenly Emperor!"
The three women were taken aback, all casting curious glances at him. Long Hui said, "Everyone knows that King Xia has no sons, only Princess Yaoying. The royal family and court officials do not acknowledge any illegitimate children. If he were to casually claim that Gao Hong is his illegitimate son, it would only incur the disgust of the neutral factions. Therefore, he wants Gao Hong to accumulate capital for his future as heir apparent. Gao Hong is already a top scholar in the civil service examination. If he can also achieve unparalleled military merits, he can silence everyone's criticisms. In addition, Prince Jin is still alive, seriously threatening Cang Shitian's throne. Therefore, he must establish a crown prince as soon as possible, otherwise the old dynasty's forces may launch a counterattack. Furthermore, although the Holy Mother Haotian is Cang Shitian's first wife, firstly, she currently holds the title of Imperial Concubine Dowager. Even if Cang Shitian were to grant her official status, her position would still be quite awkward. Secondly, she is accustomed to the affairs among concubines, so when her husband ascends the throne, he will inevitably have a harem full of beauties. She is somewhat worried about the future of her position, so she also urgently wants Gao Hong to become the crown prince."
At this point, Long Hui revealed a meaningful smile and said, "Since the mother and son are so eager to make a name for themselves, then let's give them a few great achievements!"
Bai Lingyu said, "Could it be a case of feigning indifference to lure you in?"
Long Hui said, "That's true, but we can't just go through the motions of feigning weakness right away. After all, an easy victory could easily put the enemy on their guard. And even if they fall into our trap, we don't have enough confidence to deal with the Confucian Martial Giant. So let's stall them for a while and play a stalemate."
Yu Xiuting asked, "Hui'er, you want to wait for the right opportunity to act, but when is the best time to strike?"
Long Hui laughed and said, "Once Mingluan and Tengji have reassembled the relics of the Great Desolate Demon Queen and joined forces with the Refining God Pagoda to deal with that Confucian-Martial Giant God at Iron Wall Pass, they can quell the war in the Northern Frontier. By then, Bing'er and Lady Luo should also have emerged from seclusion. The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation can then be fully unleashed to trap and kill Gao Hong, freeing up the combat power of the other experts and allowing us to deal with Bo Xun and the others!"
