Pang Yu withdrew his aura, a touch of embarrassment on his face as he said, “Friend Xu, Little Friend Meng, they are just like that, don’t take their words too much to heart.
“That lunatic, he just developed a secret technique a few days ago from cultivation research, and nearly incapacitated himself. It really broke my heart worrying for them.
“They’re too reckless, it’s absolutely outrageous!”
Xu Yan looked around at the Martial Arts scholars, several of them limping and still nursing injuries—presumably results of accidents from experimenting with their own Martial Arts techniques.
“They are all commendable warriors!”
Xu Yan sighed.
He had come to somewhat admire these fellows now, daring to personally try out Martial Arts techniques they randomly researched.
Not seeking others to test the cultivation techniques they researched but doing it themselves instead; this mindset deserved recognition.
Xu Yan even suspected that if he was to fabricate a Cultivation Technique, they would probably begin practising it immediately without any questions.
“The Martial Arts techniques they research have all been developed from an array of martial cultivation methods. Because they have a basis, they undertake the cultivation, not randomly invented out of thin air.
“If it was an arbitrarily invented Cultivation Technique, there would be no one in this world who would cultivate it, much less successfully cultivate it.”
Xu Yan chuckled silently to himself.
Who would cultivate a randomly composed Cultivation Technique? And it would be impossible for it to be cultivated.
The library of the scholars’ pavilion contained fewer books than the classics pavilion, but they were all core secrets, involving a wider range of martial arts, more secret techniques, and particularly included the insights and block diagrams of generations of martial arts scholars.
Xu Yan and Meng Chong flipped through the books in the pavilion, deepening their understanding of Inner Domain Martial Arts, learning from others’ experiences and corroborating their own learning. Perhaps they could gam some inspiration through this process.
A secret meeting was held in the Dahua cabinet room. Guo Yunshan sat at the top of the room. Though his strength was not strong, none of the elders in the cabinet present dared to violate his authority.
Even the martial artists from the Inner Domain who joined the cabinet, while unfamiliar with Guo Yunshan’s background, knew enough to be aware that crossing him, given his position in Dahua, would have serious consequences. Dahua might appear weak, but Canglan Island, Dahua’s backer, could keep the entire Inner Domain in check.
The number of people cultivating Dahua martial arts was growing, and it had been proven that Dahua martial art was stronger than the original martial art of the Inner Domain.
It was rumored that the cabinet had already obtained the method for Grandmasters to transition to Dahua Martial Arts. This was not a simple method for condensing True Qi but a complete transition into Dahua Martial Arts.
Among the Dahua royal guards, some Grandmaster Martial Artists had begun to transition to Dahua Martial Arts.
Sitting at the head, Guo Yunshan looked at the cabinet members and was filled with emotion. He never thought that one day he would sit in such a high position.
Under usual circumstances, he would not participate in the cabinet meetings on major issues. He spent more time cultivating to improve his own strength.
He knew well, in the world of Martial Artists, the strong ruled.
Even though he had attained such a high position relying on his grandson Xu
Yan, he himself can’t fall too far behind in strength.
Today’s meeting was significant, so he was here.
A few men, their faces covered with hoods and voices altered, attended the cabinet meeting.
These men were all subverted by Dahua and were some of the most important courtiers in the Great Yue State.
No one knew who they were, it was not yet time to reveal their identities.
Only a few people were aware of everyone’s identity.
The meeting was about the plans for Dahua to replace the Great Yue State and annex it, and how to proceed smoothly with this operation.
“Although the royal family of the Great Yue State has suffered heavy losses, the Heavenly Armor Guard and Heavenly Imperial Guard remain strong, hence it won’t be easy to overthrow the Yue royal family.”
A man wearing a hood said it in a deep voice.
“Exactly, the Yue royal family should not be underestimated. Although we can control most of the prefecture cities and armies in the Great Yue State, the core power is still held by the royal family.”
“We need a strong person or force to suppress the Yue royal family in order to smoothly replace the Great Yue.”
A few people wearing hoods shared their opinions.
After a discussion, all eyes turned towards Guo Yunshan. He would have the final say on how to proceed.
Only he could reach out to the true powerhouse of Dahua.
Before Guo Yunshan could speak, a man walked in, holding a folding fan and smiling broadly.
“There will naturally be strongmen. You don’t have to worry, just proceed according to the plan.”
Kou Ruozhi wore a broad smile on his face.
He had planned the rebellion with Emperor Qi and the Emperor of Wu, including how to subvert the ministers of the Great Yue State, he, and the two Emperors had planned these moves.
After the grand meeting of the Dahua cabinet ended, the ministers of the Great Yue State who had quietly arrived also left quietly.
In the royal palace of the Great Yue State, inside the Imperial Study.
The Great Yue Emperor felt a little heavy-hearted. While appears to have calmed down with no looming crisis, it was precisely because of this that he felt a crisis was brewing.
Among the five vassal kings, Prince Zheng unexpectedly showed signs of rebelling and declaring independence from the Great Yue State, which surprised the Great Yue Emperor.
Among the five vassals, Prince Du was the strongest and the most likely to break away from the Yue State. Hence, he was the one being suppressed. The crisis in the Du Prince’s mansion was related to the backstage manipulation by the royal family.
Unexpectedly, Prince Zheng, who had always been loyal and obedient to the royal family, was about to rebel and claim independence.
If Prince Zheng succeeds, the other four vassal kings too might have ulterior motives leading to their separation from the Great Yue State..
