Outlaws start by climbing to the top of the martial arts wanted list

Chapter 403: In troubled times, no one can help themselves

late at night.

Moonlight and stars are sparse.

Dou Changsheng looked at the night sky and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

There is so much going on today and so much to process.

This short day actually gave Dou Changsheng the feeling that several years had passed.

Now things only seem to have been handled, but in reality, we still don’t know what the future will be like.
Dou Changsheng slowly sat down on the stone steps. At this moment, Dou Changsheng was also hesitant. Although the choices he made during the day were correct, he still felt uncomfortable.

Dou Changsheng knew clearly that this situation occurred because he had strong ideas about becoming an immortal in the world.

Even if he had never taken that step before, he had actively participated in the world situation and continued to maintain the court, which had already demonstrated his inner inclination.

Especially this time when I saw Emperor Taizong, I realized how powerful the Mandate of Heaven was.

Dou Changsheng could no longer deceive himself; he was already throbbing with excitement about becoming an immortal.

This is the fastest route to the top. Although there are many hidden dangers in becoming a contemporary immortal, one’s combat power is unparalleled, enough to reach the top, and this is the most important thing for the situation that follows.

If one becomes an immortal step by step, this path may seem stable, but one also loses opportunities.

Like the Xuanhe and Eighth Generations of the Qing Dynasty, what would it matter even if they attained enlightenment?
It is absolutely impossible to reach the limit of the world in one step.

In Dou Changsheng's opinion, an ordinary person who has attained enlightenment is only a half-immortal, and the eight generations are scattered immortals. This realm is naturally higher than that of a half-immortal, but there is still a gap between them and a true immortal.

Of course, they have great potential and can catch up quickly, but this fast time will not be ten or a hundred years, but at least several hundred years, or even a thousand years.

Under normal circumstances, let alone hundreds of years, even one or two thousand years is nothing. For the immortals who live forever, this is just a drop in the ocean, a blink of an eye.

But now we are in an era of great contention, the world is about to be promoted, and every second counts.

Qingxuan and Badai are about to miss this opportunity, especially even if they can improve their realm to the same level as the current true immortals, they still cannot do it, because the immortals are so powerful, not only have their realm reached the extreme, but they also have immortal weapons in their hands.

Two immortal artifacts and one rare item from heaven, this is the standard configuration for all immortals. The powerful ones among them already possess a third immortal artifact.

Each of them is a cunning old bastard with many hidden tricks. What you can see is definitely only a part of it. What is hidden underwater is even more shocking.

Therefore, the normal path, if you want to compete for the opportunity of world advancement this time, you are destined to not become the protagonist. You can only wander on the periphery, waiting for the immortals to eat a bite of meat and drink a sip of cold soup.

Yes, not even a sip of hot soup was possible.

Because the immortals eat meat, there are also many evil gods and extraterritorial evil gods, some of whom are very powerful. The strong ones eat meat, and the weaker ones drink soup.

If Qingxuan and Yada were not strong enough and had incredible potential after their breakthrough, Dou Changsheng thought they wouldn't even be able to have a sip of cold soup.

Therefore, the path of Immortal King is the best path.

There is no need to escape the calamity now, because the world's advancement is only about one hundred or eighty years, or at most a few hundred years, and it can be endured. With this great fortune, there is great hope to break the curse that the Immortal King cannot succeed.

As long as he becomes an immortal of the time, he will ascend to heaven in one step. Not only will his fighting power be unparalleled in the world, but he will also be able to use the emperor's sword, the imperial seal, and other imperial artifacts perfectly, if he also takes the imperial capital into account.

Speaking of immortal artifacts, I have quite a few.

Think about this time, Emperor Taizong relied on the Mandate of Heaven and rushed directly into the East China Sea, rushing around recklessly. More than one real dragon attacked him, but they were still taught a lesson by Emperor Taizong. In the end, the Emperor's sword was stained with blood, but Emperor Taizong was unharmed. The invincible strength of the immortal in the world was undoubtedly demonstrated.

The benefits are obvious, but the risks are also huge.

This is undoubtedly a gamble, and it is a gamble with everything on the line. If you fail, you will die.

If you were an ordinary person, I believe you would have no chance of survival and the hope of success would be too slim, because you cannot be sure that there will be opportunities in the future, and you cannot guarantee that you will be able to seize the opportunities.

However, Dou Changsheng thought about it carefully and found that all this was not a problem for him.

Because he is not an ordinary person, but a hacker.

With the existence of the system, it is completely possible to cheat.

Ordinary people cannot follow the path to becoming an Immortal King, and cannot find a way to escape the final calamity, but they can solve it with the help of the system.

When he returned to the imperial capital from the East, he took the initiative to control the court, began to monopolize power, and wanted to suppress the world on his own. This was the confidence that the system gave Dou Changsheng.

Once the idea changes, the world becomes broader and broader.

The fact that Taizu of Daqian achieved enlightenment in a different way is not a bad thing, but a very good thing.

Because the existence of Daqian Taizu was a complete obstacle, now that he has left on his own initiative and his position has become vacant, Dou Changsheng will naturally be able to fill it.

But Dou Changsheng also knew that this was not a trivial matter, and even the attitude of the immortals was crucial.

The martial power of the immortals of the time is unparalleled, and they naturally have the power to influence the world. This is a variable for the other immortals, and it can interfere with their fight for the greatest fortune.

So it is better that there are no immortals in this world.

When Dou Changsheng thought about this, he suddenly realized the problem.

The world is in chaos and Daqian collapses, which will cause the disappearance of the immortals of the time. But when the world is successfully promoted and the world gradually becomes peaceful, another immortal of the time will appear. This is in the interests of all the immortals.

As for the loss of the immortal as a fighter, the combat effectiveness would be reduced. Now there is the nine-headed dragon to fill this gap.

If these scenes happened due to the evolution of the situation, it would be normal.

If it was driven by a group of immortals, it would be extremely terrifying.

Therefore, he now planned to become a contemporary immortal, but the immortals might not agree. They would create a competitor for him out of nowhere, especially since he could see things that the immortals could not see?
World promotion is a very good opportunity. If it succeeds, there will be one more person to distribute the interests of China.

The share is so small, and one more person means they will get less, which is absolutely not allowed.

Therefore, we need to test the true thoughts of the immortals. They are not a monolithic group. On the contrary, they are full of contradictions and fights are everywhere.

This is an opportunity that can be used to win over some of the immortals. After all, the martial power of the immortals in this world is sufficient and it is worth winning over some of them. However, it is easier said than done.

Dou Changsheng stopped thinking and did not continue to think about these vague things.

Next, maintain the situation, test the immortals, and participate in the Evil God Conference.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

This day was destined to be a sleepless night. Dou Changsheng couldn't sleep, so he sat on the stone steps to think, and countless others did the same.

Those who were well-informed had already known all the news, and this had triggered countless clashes of ideas. Every household was engaged in heated discussions, and even if they had started in the daytime, they would not end until late at night because of the fierce clashes of different opinions.

The younger people were naturally more ambitious and radical. They believed that Daqian was finished and there was no need to obey him anymore. Not to mention killing officials and rebelling directly, they also did not need to care about the court. They began to strike hard and take back the interests that should have belonged to them.

The older generation, on the other hand, were more stable and cautious. They believed that although things had happened, Daqian was a unified dynasty after all, and even if it collapsed, it would take time.

If they showed up at this moment, they would easily be attacked by the imperial court. Even if the imperial court finally collapsed, they would be dragged into it and become victims.

Therefore, one would rather give up some interests and remain unchanged, and not bring the family into a dangerous situation just because the benefits are great.

The people who are making the most noise now are undoubtedly the ones who stay in Nandu.

This post of staying behind cannot be undertaken by ordinary people, because there are only five such people in the world.

They represented five cities respectively. Most of the time, this position was nominal and no one held it. Until recently, as the world was gradually in chaos, members of the royal family were sent to stay behind to take the position.

The governor of Nandu was originally a member of the royal family, but because the royal family was transferred away not long ago, he was entrusted with the important task and successfully took over the post of governor temporarily.

The governor of Nando knew clearly that he was only a temporary governor and would be transferred away once the court decided on the next governor.

I just didn't expect that something big would happen today.

Changes occurred in the imperial court, and Emperor Taizu became a Taoist. This made the governor of Nandu even less interested in staying in Nandu, because he knew that Nandu would be the center of the storm soon, and countless ambitious people would engage in fierce fighting around Nandu.

The governor of Nandu did not think he could handle it, which was why he was very glad when he was appointed as the governor of Nandu temporarily, because the court would definitely transfer him away.

But after returning home in the evening, those who stayed behind in Nandu received a heavy blow.

The person who beat him was not a outsider, but his own son.

There was a demon in Nandu and a plague broke out. The people left in Nandu were busy for several hours, asking for help from the court, and then they mobilized strong men to put out the fire in Nandu like a fire brigade.

After a busy period, even though the Nandu resident had strong cultivation, he felt physically and mentally exhausted.

After all, the timing of this demon's trouble was too coincidental, and the arrangements were obviously aimed at the government. This made the Nandu governor know that there must be a problem inside, and someone was communicating with the demon and passing on information from the government to him continuously.

This person's status is not low, otherwise he would not have been able to obtain so much top-secret information. The people who stayed behind in Nandu have become alert, because Nandu is too important, and it is inevitable that someone will cause trouble.

But now that something has gone wrong, he is the first to bear the brunt of the problem. This may cost him his life.

That's why those who stayed in Nandu were so exhausted, because it took up too much of their energy to dig out this traitor.

But after returning home, the man left behind in Nandu discovered that the traitor was actually his own son.

No, to be more accurate, I am the traitor.

Because the monsters in Nandu were invited by their own family.

This made the Nandu governor very angry. He whipped his son with a whip in the middle of the night, but he still did not stop. The anger in his heart did not decrease, but became more intense.

Because the man who stayed behind in Nandu discovered that this was actually his son's idea, and he was not being fooled.

The governor of Nandu would rather let his son be fooled. Such a situation can only mean that his son is not smart and is a fool.

There is still a bottom line, but it was taken advantage of by bad people.

Now that all of this was done by his own son, in the eyes of the Nandu Liushou, he is a cruel and ruthless monster.

For personal purposes, they actually dared to release the plague in Nandu. Such a cruel method was so ruthless that the people left in Nandu shuddered at the mere thought of it.

Is this still my son?
So cold-blooded and heartless.

Even the people left behind in Nandu felt a little uneasy.

If they can attack ordinary people for their own purposes today, they may attack themselves for power tomorrow.

Don't think that he is as docile as a sheep now, allowing himself to be whipped by me. That's because everything he has depends on me. When he grows up, he will definitely show his fangs to me.

The governor of Nandu took a deep breath, there was something wrong with his son.

This whipping was also a confirmation.

While he was angry, he also used this opportunity to check whether his bag had been swapped.

After some examination, they were able to confirm that this was their son, and thus came to a very horrible conclusion: their son had been murdered.

This harm does not mean death, but the mind is affected.

Nandu Liushou thought he was not a fool. If his son was so cruel, there would definitely be clues. The fact that he was completely unaware of it for so many years said it all.

I don’t know which one of the Demon Sect he is, or maybe one of the above.

At this moment, the people left behind in Nandu were extremely confused and finally realized the feeling of being helpless in troubled times.

When I read history books in the past, I felt that those people were so foolish that they took the initiative to face the enemy instead of decisively withdrawing and leaving. They were too stupid. Now that the same thing happened to them, the people who stayed in Nandu realized that it was not that they were stupid, but that they could not escape the calculations of those with ulterior motives.

I am temporarily staying in Nandu, this position is too critical. In addition, I have been an official in Nandu for many years. If there is really a commotion, it will easily cause chaos.

Success is a good thing, failure is even better. A great chaos will consume the vitality of the court. After experiencing a great chaos, it will also create opportunities for those who later seize the Southern Capital.

The governor of Nandu put down the whip in his hand, looked at his son in front of him, and didn't know what to say for a moment.

The other party is already doomed, his thinking is already problematic, and he won't recognize his mistakes, so it's useless to talk to him anymore.

Moreover, the thing has been done. When the court investigates it, he will not think that he is innocent. Instead, they will think that he is cold-blooded and heartless, and threw his own son to take the blame in order to escape punishment.

The evil son was wrong, but those accomplices should all be killed.

How could this evil boy accomplish so many things on his own? There must be someone helping him secretly.

"master."

"A guest came to visit and said that the matter concerning the eldest son had been known to the Garrison Department."
