Clash Of The Sword Titans

When the beautiful woman left with a group of palace ladies, Qu Haijiao lowered his head and shouted with all his strength: "Gong Niang Niang!"

After a long time, until the faint trembling of his body gradually ceased, he raised his eyes, his old face trembling fiercely, and a sullen expression flashed under his eyes.

"Foster father."

A young eunuch standing far away came over and said angrily to Qu Haijiao: "The Qing concubine is getting more and more excessive. If it weren't for your support these years, how could she have the status it is today?"

Such a rebellious remark, it is impossible for any eunuch who has served in the palace for many years to speak.But this little guy who was less than fourteen or fifteen years old obviously didn't take any care of it. Instead, he meant to feel wronged for Qu Haijiao.

Qu Haijiao looked at him and said lightly: "Guiwu, how many years have you been with me?"

The little eunuch froze, and then respectfully said: "I have been following my foster father since I was sent to the palace at the age of five. It has been ten years."

He paused, and added: "Even the name Qu Guiwu was given to me by your foster father."

"Ten years." Qu Haijiao was silent for a moment, and then asked: "Do you know, before you, how many sons do I have?"

This time, the eunuch named Qu Guiwu did not answer.

As eunuchs in the dynasty, especially the old eunuchs with high authority like Qu Haijiao, most of them would accept a few godsons.One is to cultivate his own power, with a few eyeliners, and it is convenient to do things in the palace.Secondly, I just want to pass on my own mantle, so that I don't have any successors of what I have learned.

Because unless it is a special case of entering the palace after being quite old, most eunuchs will not have the opportunity to continue their blood.Therefore, they will choose some qualified eunuchs from the newly admitted eunuchs, and recognize them as their sons and apprentices.

An old eunuch like Qu Haijiao who has been in the palace for so many years, naturally, it is impossible to have only one or two godsons.

But Qu Guiwu had never seen anyone else, as if the godson of his foster father was only himself.Although he knew it was impossible, he never asked this question.

"You are my eighth godson." Finally, Qu Haijiao gave the answer, and the meaning behind this answer made Qu Guiwu suddenly feel cold in his hands and feet.

Qu Haijiao glanced at him deeply, "Do you want to know where all the seven brothers in front of you have gone?"

Qu Guiwu did not speak.

He is a little thin body, shaking like chaff at the moment, if it weren't for knowing that his foster father hates kneeling, he wants to kneel down and beg for mercy.

"The first three, because of their good strength, were sent by the Qing concubine empress to perform tasks and died in the hands of others. The latter three died in some struggles in the palace..."

Qu Haijiao's slightly muddy eyes looked towards Qu Guiwu: "As for the last one, he is just like you, with excellent talent and clever man. If nothing happens, the future will definitely exceed my realm and become a palace. The most powerful minister. It’s a pity that he, just like you, said something wrong, and was killed by me."

When Qu Guiwu heard this, he couldn't help the fear in his heart anymore, and knelt on the ground begging for mercy: "Foster father for your life! The child knows it is wrong!"

Qu Haijiao didn't look at him, but rather sadly said: "I am old, and I have not been able to break through the Mingyou realm. I have run out of life. I don't have the time to train a son."

Speaking of this, Qu Haijiao suddenly turned around and reached out to help Qu Guiwu up.

Qu Guiwu's legs are no longer strong enough, and the weight of his entire body rests on Qu Haijiao's hands, afraid to look at the eyes of his foster father.

"This is the first time you have made a mistake. The adoptive father can forgive you." Qu Haijiao's voice was flat, and he couldn't hear the slightest anger, but at the moment when he said the last word, he suddenly turned sharp: "In the palace, you and me They are all slaves! Talking about masters and sons behind your back is indispensable. If there is another time, the adoptive father can only send you to accompany your seven brothers!"

Qu Guiwu was so frightened that he burst into tears, and even warm liquid came out of him.

Qu Haijiao didn't dislike it. He hugged him in his arms and patted his back lightly and said: "Being a slave, you must be careful, be careful... be careful. Because only by being careful can you survive, and everything in this world Nothing is more important than being alive."

"Remember?"

Qu Gui Wuyaguan trembled, but still insisted on answering: "Baby...baby...remember!"

Qu Haijiao smiled tragically, let go of his hand, and said kindly: "Go and wash, and I will meet later, let me see the world."

Qu Gui Wu Rumeng amnesty, and walked away.

But Qu Haijiao was still standing on the spot, his white eyebrows swaying in the wind, he raised his head, looked at the tallest palace in the distance, and muttered: "Mother, your Majesty is about to cross that threshold, you What's the hurry?"

With a slight sigh, Qu Haijiao walked towards the palace with a slow pace.

...

In the carriage.

Lu Li and Ge Xinyue sat facing each other.

Neither of them spoke.

On the contrary, Lu Li opened the curtain from time to time, looking at the huge palace gate that was getting closer and closer, making a thoughtful gesture.

Seeing this, Ge Xinyue smiled and said, "Very nervous?"

"Sister Ge joked, that is your Majesty of the Holy Kingdom, or one of the most powerful Grand Master Mingyou in the entire world, how can you not be nervous?" Lu Li didn't hide it, and smiled very calmly.

"Although your Majesty controls the entire Heaven Swallowing Kingdom, it is not one of the most powerful compared to this world." Ge Xinyue slowly said: "There is still a god of sight above Mingyou, step into Only when you see a god, you can call it a heavenly man. The martial artist's cultivation is endless, and the strongest word is easy to say, but if you want to put it before your name, how many people in the world can do it?"

Lu Li seldom heard Ge Xinyue say so many things in one breath, and couldn't help saying: "It seems that Sister Ge has her own stubbornness in practice."

Ge Xinyue looked at him with a faint smile, "If you step on the road of a warrior, if you don't even have the enthusiasm to climb, how can you talk about competing with the world?"

Of course Lu Li could hear her ridicule, but he didn't feel embarrassed.Instead, after thinking about it for a while, he asked seriously: "Sister Ge, what kind of scenery is it like to see the realm of God?"

He had seen Mu Ningqiu open up the You Mansion and be promoted to Ming You.

There have been too many descriptions of this world's default grandmaster realm.As for the higher level of seeing God, Lu Li only heard of his name and had never seen anyone talk about it.

There will inevitably be curiosity in my mind.

"Seeing God..." Ge Xinyue hesitated, took a deep look at Lu Li, or opened his mouth to explain, "Do you know there is a Netherworld in the world?"

"Of course, after death, people will return to the netherworld."

Lu Li nodded.

He had known this for a long time. He had a hint of inquiring about the place similar to that of the “underworld”. After all, in this world of martial arts and gods, the legend of the netherworld is not necessarily false. Human beings can control even the soul. The return of the soul after death is certainly not a rumor.

It was only later that he discovered that with the power of the martial artist, even if he reached the realm of Mingyou, he could only'see' Netherworld, but could not have the slightest influence on it, and gradually dispelled the meaning of exploring Netherworld.

"This world is very vast. The True Martial Realm we are in is actually just a huge continent. There used to be a powerful warrior who traversed the entire True Martial Realm to the outside world and brought back a piece of news."

Ge Xinyue slowly said: "Besides Zhenwu, it is the King's Court of the Four Seas, some of which claim to be the people of the Upper Realm. And Netherworld is one of the Upper Realms. In a more popular way, the upper realm is strong, Among them is the existence of'God'."

"The so-called seeing the gods is the martial arts cultivation level that can be equal to these powerful people."

At this point, Ge Xinyue didn't continue speaking, but watched Lu Li said, "Is it suddenly a little desperate?"

Lu Li returned to his senses and was silent for a while before saying: "In other words, when we martial artists have cultivated to see the gods, is it really just the starting point for those'gods'?"

Ge Xinyue nodded, acquiescing to this statement.

When she learned the truth that year, she was too shocked to speak.The concepts established over the years collapsed, almost unable to maintain the courage of the martial artist.

The martial artist has worked hard for decades, or even hundreds of years, to achieve the God Realm, but he has an equal starting point with the so-called "Upper Realm".

Just think about it and you will know how desperate news this is.
