It was the first time that Zhou Chen saw Di Feisheng with such a decadent look and tone.
"You are not the kind of person who gives up easily. Even if your tendons are broken, they may be able to recover. Don't talk for now. I will help you remove the poison first."
As he said that, he slowly gathered his internal energy and began to detoxify Di Feisheng. Di Feisheng was actually poisoned by the Shura grass, which was why his internal energy was sealed.
Zhou Chen used his internal energy and acupuncture to help Di Feisheng detoxify, and eventually controlled the Shura grass poison in his body. However, there was no way to deal with the tendons in his hands and feet.
Although the poison was removed, there was no joy on Di Feisheng's face. Without his hands and feet, his kung fu, which he was most proud of, could not be fully utilized. He had no chance of defeating Li Xiangyi again, so he was naturally in a bad mood.
Zhou Chen comforted him, "Don't be discouraged so quickly. Haven't you heard the saying, 'No destruction, no construction. Destruction leads to construction. Great destruction leads to great construction, and a new life is born."
Di Feisheng suddenly raised his head, a strange light flashing in his eyes, as if he had sensed something in his heart, but had not fully grasped it.
"What do you mean?"
"Hasn't your Bei Feng Bai Yang been unable to break through to the highest realm? Now is the best opportunity. Break it down and then rebuild it. Start all over again. As long as you can break through to the highest realm of Bei Feng Bai Yang, the tendons of your hands and feet will naturally recover as before."
"Without destruction, there is no construction. Destruction leads to construction. The greater the destruction, the greater the construction. This heralds a new life."
Di Feisheng kept repeating this sentence, and the more he repeated it, the more he felt it made sense, and his expression became more and more serious.
Zhou Chen said, "I will teach you a set of formulas, the Cleansing Meridians and Marrow Skills, which I learned from Xiaohua. If used in conjunction with the Cleansing Meridians and Marrow Skills, it may help you break through the eighth level of Beifeng Baiyang and reshape your meridians. Listen carefully."
Di Feisheng held his breath and concentrated, listening to Zhou Chen's narration, then slowly circulated his internal energy and began to practice.
Seeing that Di Feisheng had already started meditating and practicing, Zhou Chen did not disturb him any more. He quietly walked out of the Lotus Tower and stood guard outside.
Di Feisheng practiced for a whole day and night. When he woke up from his practice, he stood up by himself.
Zhou Chen smiled when he saw that he was full of energy and vigor.
"It looks like it was successful."
Di Feisheng stretched out his hands and clenched his fists.
"I also want to thank you for your help. I have finally reached the eighth level of Beifeng Baiyang."
After breaking through the eighth level, he felt that his strength had become much stronger. Of course, he also knew that he could break through and recover, and Zhou Chen played a decisive role in helping him.
"You're welcome. But with your breakthrough, it will be even more difficult to defeat you."
Di Feisheng was already very strong, and now he had made another breakthrough. Zhou Chen knew that if he did not make a significant improvement, he would definitely not be a match for Di Feisheng.
Di Feisheng said: "Although I have accepted your favor this time, if we were to duel, I would still go all out."
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "Of course."
Just because he is not a match for Di Feisheng now doesn't mean he won't be in the future. After many attacks since he came out of seclusion, he already feels that he is about to make a breakthrough. What he needs now is time.
Two days later, Li Lianhua came back, and with him came Qiao Wanwan and Fang Duobing.
Wangchuan Flower has been obtained from Jiao Liqiao, but it is a pity that Jiao Liqiao escaped during that encirclement and suppression battle.
But this is not important. What is important is that Shan Gudao has been executed, his martial arts skills have been destroyed, and he has been imprisoned in one of the 188 cells of Baichuanyuan.
With the Wangchuan Flower, and with the assistance of Zhou Chen and Di Feisheng, Li Lianhua took the Yin-Yang flowers and began to practice internal energy to heal his wounds.
This process lasted for three days and three nights, and the green tea poison in Li Lianhua's body was finally eliminated.
However, Li Lianhua had been poisoned for ten years, and her body had been severely damaged. It was impossible for her to recover in a short period of time, and the same was true for her internal energy.
Outside the Lotus Tower, Di Feisheng, carrying his own knife, said to Zhou Chen and Li Lianhua who were seeing him off: "I will give you one year. On August 15th of the following year, we will fight again in the East China Sea. If you cannot defeat me, I will kill you without hesitation."
Li Lianhua scratched his head: "A Fei, given our current relationship, you're still always fighting and killing each other. That's not appropriate, isn't it?"
Di Feisheng snorted coldly: "Don't talk nonsense to me. Everything else is fine, but I won't hold back on martial arts."
He turned to Zhou Chen: "Li Lianhua, I'm not worried, but you, I only have one year left. I hope you won't let me down."
Zhou Chen was quite unhappy: "One year later, on the night of the full moon, at the summit of the East China Sea, we'll see you there."
He is also proud. Although he is indeed far inferior to Di Feisheng now, there is still a year. Pressure brings motivation, and he wants to become the best in the world.
Di Feisheng took one last look at the two of them and flew away.
Not long after, Zhou Chen and Li Lianhua received the news that Jiao Liqiao's Yulongniu and Cavalry gang was wiped out by Di Feisheng, and Jiao Liqiao never appeared again.
After Li Lianhua was detoxified, she did not rush to practice, but discussed with Zhou Chen and prepared to use the karma fire left by Concubine Xuan to cultivate herself.
It just so happened that the current emperor had only one daughter, Princess Zhaoling, for more than ten years, and no prince. The emperor was already in his forties. For this matter, Emperor Daxi had argued with his ministers many times. After all, without an heir, it would easily cause turmoil in the country.
Of course the emperor was unwilling to adopt a child from the royal family. After all, an adopted child was always an adopted child and could not compare to his own biological child. So in order to give birth to a prince, he spent a lot of time in the harem in recent years. However, he did not give birth to a prince, and instead his body became weaker and weaker.
Emperor Xi was becoming increasingly powerless and extremely anxious, but at this moment, a minister suddenly reminded him of something that happened many years ago. Emperor Guangqing was also childless for many years, but later built a Paradise Tower and finally had a son.
So someone suggested that the current Emperor Xi should follow the example of Emperor Guangqing.
Emperor Xi was very moved by this proposal. After discussing it with the Queen Mother, he took action to build a child-seeking tower around the palace.
Of course, the name of the tower cannot be called "Seeking Children". It is just a plan and the decision will be made after it is built.
Li Lianhua was worried that she had no chance to enter the palace openly. When she heard the news, she was overjoyed and went to the palace with Zhou Chen and Fang Duobing.
With the help of Princess Zhao Ling, Zhou Chen and his team easily gained Emperor Xi's trust, and then began to look for a location to build a tower around the imperial palace, while secretly searching for the whereabouts of the Jile Tower.
The palace of Daxi is still very large. Although Zhou Chen knows that the Jile Tower is a well, the specific location of the well is not explained in the plot, so he still needs to look for it slowly.
However, Zhou Chen was not in a hurry. He just left this matter to Li Lianhua and the others, and he just quietly went to the Sutra Library of the Daxi Palace.
Based on his years of reading novels and watching TV shows, the Sutra Library in a general palace must be a different world, and might even contain some peerless martial arts. So if one comes to the palace and doesn't visit the Sutra Library, it would be a wasted trip.
For several nights in a row, when Li Lianhua and the others were searching for the Paradise Tower, he hid in the Sutra Library.
There were no top masters hiding in the Sutra Repository. Zhou Chen had checked it on the first day. Moreover, the guards at the Sutra Repository were not strict, so he sneaked in easily.
After staying there for a few nights, he did see countless classics in the Sutra Library, including some martial arts from various schools in the martial arts world. However, he searched for a long time and did not find any peerless martial arts comparable to Yangzhou Man and Beifeng Baiyang. He wondered if it was not here, hidden somewhere else, or something else happened.
Although he felt somewhat disappointed, he still went to the Sutra Library at night and read the martial arts secrets carefully.
If he wants to improve his martial arts skills greatly within a year and surpass Di Feisheng and Li Lianhua, it is definitely not possible to do so by following the rules. He wants to learn more martial arts and enhance his own foundation. He does not seek to reach the level of creating his own peerless martial arts, but he must improve himself quickly.
On this day, Zhou Chen, Li Lianhua and others, led by the palace eunuchs, were searching everywhere. Suddenly, a group of palace maids passed by, escorting a noble lady who was dressed in luxurious clothes and had a graceful demeanor.
They all stopped and Zhou Chen glanced around casually, but when he saw the face of the nobleman, he suddenly froze.
Coincidentally, the noble lady's gaze also swept over. When she saw Zhou Chen, her expression suddenly changed, but she quickly regained her composure and continued moving forward.
After the nobleman left, they continued to move forward under the guidance of the eunuch. Zhou Chen frowned slightly and was very confused. Why did he see her in the palace?
Li Lianhua noticed Zhou Chen's expression, approached him and whispered, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing, I saw someone familiar."
"Who, the noble lady just now? She should be the emperor's concubine. Do you know her?"
Zhou Chen shook his head and asked the eunuch who was leading the way, "Eunuch Li, who was that nobleman just now?"
"Shh, shh."
Eunuch Li was startled and quickly signaled Zhou Chen to stop talking. He looked around carefully and then whispered, "Sir, please don't talk nonsense. That person is the great noble concubine in the palace."
"Xianfei?"
"Yes, Concubine Qian, Her Majesty is now the most favored Concubine in the palace. Remember, don't offend Her Majesty."
When Zhou Chen heard that it was Concubine Qian, his expression became even more strange. He hadn't seen her for a few years, and although she had changed a lot, he was very sure that he was not mistaken because the other party also recognized her.
Just from what Eunuch Li said, her last name is Qian. Did she change her name?
At night, Zhou Chen did not go to the Sutra Repository again, but secretly came to the harem. He must solve the doubts in his heart tonight.
During the day, Zhou Chen had already found out the location of Concubine Xian's palace. Relying on his extraordinary lightness skills, he avoided Xuanyuan Xiao and sneaked into Concubine Xian's palace.
He waited until late at night, when there was no movement inside or outside the palace, before he walked into the palace.
Walking into the palace, Zhou Chen did not show any surprise when he saw Concubine Xian, who was not asleep but sitting in front of the bed.
"You guessed I would come, so you deliberately dismissed the palace maids and eunuchs?"
"Yes, when I saw you during the day, I knew you would come to see me. In this world, you are probably the only one who still cares about me."
Concubine Qian Xian looked at Zhou Chen with burning eyes, her expression was very complicated, but she was even more surprised.
Concubine Qian was none other than the first person who showed kindness to Zhou Chen after he came into this world, and she was also Gu Qingqing, whom he rescued from the Music Bureau that year.
After she had made arrangements for Gu Qingqing, she never went back to see her. Several years had passed in the blink of an eye, and she didn't expect that they would meet again in the palace.
"How did you get into the palace? Is it related to Qian Zhengqing?"
Gu Qingqing nodded and said: "Yes, that year during the draft, I replaced Mr. Qian's daughter in the palace. Now, my identity is Mr. Qian's illegitimate daughter."
"Aren't you afraid of being exposed?"
"For revenge, I am not afraid of anything."
Gu Qingqing's face was resolute, probably because she had become a virtuous concubine. She still had a noble and elegant temperament, which was completely different from the innocent girl she used to be.
Zhou Chen didn't say anything and listened patiently to Gu Qingqing's narration.
According to Gu Qingqing, her father was convicted because he offended the emperor. It was said that it was because of the memorial he wrote. In the end, he was beheaded. His mother and relatives were also either killed or exiled. It can be said that it was a revenge for the genocide of the entire family.
She has been in the palace for six years. All the people who were executed back then have been eliminated by her using various means. She herself has become the favorite concubine of Emperor Xi. Now her status in the harem is second only to the queen mother and the queen, and she is the first concubine.
"I have no relatives in this world anymore. I had originally thought about dying with him, but your arrival made me change my mind."
"what?"
Zhou Chen looked surprised. He naturally knew that what Gu Qingqing said was true.
Gu Qingqing showed a charming and happy smile: "Maybe he has done too many evil things, so he has not been able to give birth to a son for decades. Doesn't he want a son to inherit the throne? I think I can help him."
Zhou Chen's heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean?"
Gu Qingqing's face was still full of smiles: "You are my benefactor. I have always wanted to repay you, but I never had the chance. Now this opportunity has finally come."
As she spoke, she suddenly stood up, then with her hands, the luxurious clothes slipped off her body, revealing her fair skin.
"Zhou Chen, help me get revenge and give me a son."
Zhou Chen was silent. Is it so exciting? In the Great Xi Kingdom, there was Emperor Guangqing before, and now it is the turn of the current Emperor Xi?
To do or not to do!
After staring into Gu Qingqing's eyes for a long time, Zhou Chen sighed. He was really too soft-hearted.
For the next few days, Emperor Xi only came one day. The rest of the time, Zhou Chen was helping Gu Qingqing. Since he had promised her, he couldn't give up halfway.
It was not until more than ten days later that Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing found the Jile Tower and learned the secret of the Jile Tower.
“These cannot be revealed to the world.”
Zhou Chen proposed with great righteousness to destroy the contents of the Paradise Tower, which made Li Lianhua and Fang Duobing agree with him wholeheartedly.
Although Li Lianhua knew that he was a descendant of the Nanyin royal family, he had no interest in restoring the country. As for Fang Duobing, he was a true knight. They all knew that once this secret spread, it would bring consequences to the world. What a sensation.
In order not to arouse suspicion, they still found a good feng shui site and proposed that Emperor Xi build a tower. Zhou Chen even specially drew a building map. After Emperor Xi saw it, he applauded and asked Zhou Chen and others to be responsible for building the tower.
More than half a month later, when the tower for praying for a child had just begun to be built, a great event happened in the palace: Concubine Xian was pregnant.
This excited Emperor Xi, the Queen Mother, and all the ministers. You know, no concubine had been born in the harem since Princess Zhaoling was born. Emperor Xi's only son was born twenty years ago, but he died before he was one year old.
This is the first time in more than ten years that a concubine is pregnant. This is a big event for the royal family and the world.
The pregnancy of Concubine Xian made Emperor Xi believe that the fertility tower was really effective, so he continued to have people build it. Zhou Chen and others had completed the preliminary preparations and had already left the palace.
After Zhou Chen learned that Gu Qingqing was pregnant, he left the palace. He did not plan to come back in the future because this was not a good thing for Gu Qingqing.
However, if Gu Qingqing gave birth to a daughter, he would have to go through the trouble of making another trip. After all, he had promised someone something and he had to do it.
After leaving the capital, Zhou Chen began to retreat. The Mid-Autumn Festival of the following year was not far away, and he had to race against time, otherwise he would not even be qualified to fight with Di Feisheng and Li Lianhua.
The place he chose for his retreat was the residence of Li Xiangyi's master's wife, Cen Po, because Cen Po had agreed to help him practice. Cen Po's martial arts might be much worse than Li Xiangyi and Di Feisheng, but she had extremely rich experience and could definitely bring great help to Zhou Chen.
…………
one year later!
At the top of the East China Sea, countless martial artists gathered, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the three people who had already stood still.
The battle lasted for a whole day and night with no winner determined. The three fought one-on-one and together at other times. Except for a short rest, they didn't even have time to eat.
In the end, the three men were still tied, so they stopped fighting again and agreed to fight again next year.
Time passed quickly. Zhou Chen took some time to visit the imperial palace in the capital, met his son, and then returned to Yucheng to live in seclusion.
It was not until six years later that Zhou Chen relied on his own strong perseverance to defeat Di Feisheng and Li Lianhua and became the world's
