Be a reckless man in the martial arts word game

Chapter 631 The Beginning of Another Battlefield

[Thousands of years ago, there was a terrifying demon who entered and exited the palaces of various countries as if he were in an empty place. The heavy things that depended on the fate of a country were just like toys in his hands.]

[The two countries of Wei and Yue, which were once powerful, perished because of the destruction of their national fortunes]

[After the world of later generations embarked on the path of great unification, most emperors thought about a question... What if someone imitated the Demon Lord back then, broke into the palace, and stole the country's most valuable assets, wouldn't the fate of the country be ruined? ]

[Without the suppression of the three religions, the martial arts of the world are thriving, and talented people are emerging in large numbers. Even the leader of the world may not be better than the leader of Yu Benshan]

[So the second question that the emperors were worried about was - "When I cannot suppress Yu Benshan's dominance, how can I ensure that he cannot interfere with my rule?"]

[After combining these two problems, they came up with a solution——]

【Sacrificial offerings to the gods】

[For this reason, they gave up using the country's fortune to support the Peak Mountain Realm and build the Wuzu Temple for them, and instead melted all the rare and powerful materials into the important objects of the country]

[It is equivalent to the whole country's strength to support one or two weapons]

[After a complex and tedious ritual, the heavy object of the state is no longer as fragile as before, and will shatter when hit by a strong blow. It is stronger than the original temple of Wuzu, and it has the ability to stabilize the mountains and rivers.]

[A king who is above all people and the country, equipped with a weapon that carries the destiny of the country... With such strength, in most cases, even the top name of Yu Benshan has to avoid his edge.]

[And there are three such national treasures in Dayu]

[Mountain and River Cauldron, Emperor's Sword, State Seal]

[Lower your goal a bit, don't take being the best in the world as your imaginary goal. These three national treasures, when not controlled by the Immortal King Qianqiu, each has the ability to suppress the Peak Mountain Realm.]

[Back then, there was a lecherous monk in Huizhou who turned against Buddhism. He had the strength of a mountain-level master. Buddhism was too slow to clean up its sects, so he became rampant in other states.]

[After the local governor reported this man’s situation, a flash of sword light flashed across the sky that night. At dawn, people found that the Buddhist monk had died in Caishikou.]

[The one who was ordered to deal with this matter at that time was the Second Prince. He used the power of the Emperor's Sword to kill the thief with one sword.]

[This is a national treasure that can be activated by the blood of the royal family of Dayu. After experiencing this sword, the second prince couldn't stop using it. He made various excuses and refused to return it, but the sword eventually disappeared into the dark room of his study.]

[Even though they are all of royal blood, there is still a difference between them. The Immortal King Qianqiu still holds absolute control over these three important weapons.]

[From then on, he never lent the country's most important weapon to any of his sons]

[He was wary of his own son, and after his condition became a mystery, this wariness was taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives, who set up a huge scheme in which all the princes were involved.]

[This situation has been going on for many years, and many princes have been trapped in it. Now, there are only three princes left alive in Dayu, the third prince, the sixth prince, and the ninth prince.]

[These three are the people who may eventually drive the country's most important weapon]

[The National Seal disappeared along with the disappearance of the Immortal King Qianqiu. Only two of the country's most important treasures remain. With three people sharing two treasures, naturally one of the princes must be eliminated.]

[The Ninth Prince next to you is the first one to be eliminated]

[He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve. You have seen this kind of paper before. It is the boat-carrying paper produced by Tianshang Renjian. It can transmit objects over long distances.]

[Huang Liang, the lobbyist of the Duke's Mansion, was blackmailed by you for many things, all of which were sent to him on this kind of paper.]

[The Ninth Prince bit his finger, used his blood as ink, and wrote a sentence on the paper:]

【“Help me get that thing.”】

[It is not difficult to guess that the thing His Royal Highness wants should be the key to stopping the Chai people as he said]

["What do you want?" asked the general.]

【“Mountain and River Cauldron.”】

[He has handed the matter of taking the tripod to his most trusted aide in the capital. He doesn't know if he can accomplish it, but at this point he can only hope for a miracle.] [The Ninth Prince briefly introduced the power of the Mountain and River Tripod, and you almost understand the key.]

[“Who has the Mountain and River Cauldron now?” you asked]

【“My third brother.”】

[“Then why doesn’t he use the power of the Mountain and River Cauldron to support the North?”]

[“Perhaps support is on the way.” The Ninth Prince shook his head, “Or perhaps he has something to do with the Changsheng Sect and doesn’t want to provide support.”]

[“Or maybe, he wanted to wait until the Chai people moved south. By then, people would be in dire straits and the country would be in danger of collapse. He would lead the army to quell the rebellion of the foreign tribes, establish an unprecedented merit, and then ascend the throne.”]

[There may be many, but the Chai people considered so many things when they went south this time, it is impossible for them to ignore the impact of those important national treasures. It is very likely that they have determined that such things will not become an obstacle for them.]

[“Who is the person you contacted in Beijing?”]

[“Huang Liang, a talented person hidden in the Duke’s Mansion, was the one who noticed the plot of my brothers in advance and reminded me to escape from the capital as soon as possible. That’s how I saved my life.”]

[Huang Liang...it turned out to be him. What a coincidence! ]

[You remember now, the lobbyist who helped the Duke's Mansion save the two sisters from Qinxicheng called himself Huang Liang]

[Qin Youzhi used his heart to see that this person was not really loyal to the Duke's Mansion, but secretly took refuge with a prince. Now it seems that the one he took refuge with is probably the weak Ninth Prince in front of him.]

[The corners of your mouth twitched... Among so many princes, he only has his eyes on the Ninth Prince. Huang Liang's gaze is very worrying.]

[“What are the chances that he can do this?”]

[“I’m afraid… less than one percent.”]

[If you want to transport the Mountain River Cauldron to the border over a long distance using the Boat Carrying Book, you need to first obtain the approval of the cauldron and remove the restrictions around it. This means that Huang Liang needs to obtain the blood of at least the Third Prince or the Sixth Prince.]

[This person is very intelligent, but his skills are average. It is almost impossible for him to accomplish such a thing in front of the masters raised by the two princes.]

[“Can your boat-carrying paper still deliver messages?” you asked]

[“Yes.” His Royal Highness’s wounds were still wet. He indicated that if you had anything to say, you could say it as soon as possible and he would pass it on for you.]

[“You ask Huang Liang to find Qin Youzhi. He will definitely help you when he sees the smoke of war in the northern border.”]

[“But…how can I gain his trust?”]

[The Ninth Prince is very aware of his reputation in the capital. When people heard that he was his man, no one was happy to see him.]

[“Just say that Jin Shuangdao asked him to take the tripod, and to gain his trust, say ‘Ten miles of vast field, three sons share talent and fame’.”]

【"good."】

[The Ninth Prince used blood as ink to pass on these words.]

[“Wait…” Shan Shan’e had also come over here without anyone noticing]

[“If you want to do something big in the capital, you can also go find my mother. Her name is Liu Yunjie. I heard that my grandfather retired from the position of prime minister a few years ago, but the Liu family is still a famous family in the capital, not inferior to the Duke’s Mansion.”]

[“Go find her and tell her, ‘An’er has come to the North to avenge his father, drive out the Chai people, and restore our Shan family’s reputation. Mother, help me.’”]

[After hearing this, the Ninth Prince turned pale, "...Aren't there too many words?"]

[“Write it. You are a warrior in the Jianshan realm. Are you afraid of losing too much blood?”]
