In front of the Great Xia Imperial Palace, Heavenly Edict Hall, there are thousands of stone steps leading directly to Tianting, the highest peak of Imperial Authority on earth, overlooking the entire imperial city.
Under the thousand-story stone steps, a figure in plain clothes walked towards the end of the stone steps step by step.
Not long after, Zhi Ming appeared in front of the Heavenly Edict Hall, with white hair flying and dazzling.
Inside the Heavenly Edict Hall, Xia Chi was shocked when he saw the person coming, and it was difficult to keep his expression calm.
"Master."
The long-awaited title, tears lingering in Xia Chi's eyes, the majesty of the emperor, at this moment, no longer exists.
When I was young, my most profound memory was of my master's thin but tall figure, who alone held up the sky of Great Xia.
"Did you only see your master?"
Outside the hall, Qing Ling walked over and said with a smile.
"Aunt Qing."
The smile on Xia Chi's face became brighter and brighter, and he couldn't hide his excitement.
Seeing Xia Chi in front of him, who was now on his own, a look of emotion flashed across Qing Ling's face. Time passed too fast.
The little Xia Chi who was chased all over the yard has now become the Great Xia emperor who comes from all directions.
"It's Marquis of Knowing Fate!"
Marquis of Knowing Fate of Great Xia returned, and the secret report quickly spread throughout the imperial city like a torrent. Except for the common people, almost all the top forces knew the news.
Shocked and shocked, all forces were silent. Marquis of Knowing Fate of Great Xia, this name put too much pressure on people, even more than the Great Xia emperor.
This is a truly living myth. Back then, he single-handedly saved Great Xia from the fire and water, and his name will remain in history and will live forever.
"Now that the news has come, we can't pretend we don't know and go into the palace."
From one force, a solemn voice came out, Marquis of Knowing Fate's return, for them, it may be an opportunity to make a career.
Great Xia Heavenly Edict Hall, the emperor and the emperor's master reminisced about the past. Outside the palace, under the thousand-story stone steps, Great Xia ministers arrived one after another. They all knelt in front of the palace, waiting for the emperor and Imperial Tutor's summons.
"Master, see you?"
In front of the palace, announcements came one after another. Xia Chi looked at the man in front of him and asked.
"Since we are all here, let's see you." Ning Chen responded with a smile.
Everyone in the world strives for profit, and no one is exempt. Even saints are not exempt from vulgarity. These ministers are the pillars of Great Xia, so there is no harm in meeting them.
Xia Chi nodded, looked at the palace servants not far away, and said, "Announce all ministers to enter the palace!"
The emperor gave the order, and not long after, outside the Heavenly Edict Hall, the sharp voice of the palace servant sounded, reaching the ears of every courtier.
The ministers thanked each other, stood up, and walked towards the top Heavenly Edict Hall with strict hierarchy.
Inside the Heavenly Edict Hall, the ministers lined up neatly in two teams and entered one after another. After taking their positions, they knelt down and saluted respectfully.
All ministers came to see him, and Great Xia Dynasty's most distinguished princes, generals, and ministers all came to see Marquis of Knowing Fate of Great Xia's magnificence.
"Get flat."
In front of the dragon chair, Xia Chi spoke calmly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
All the ministers thanked him and stood up one after another.
In the middle of the hall, two figures stood quietly. The man on the left, dressed in plain clothes and with white hair, was unusually eye-catching.
Baichen glanced at the white-haired young man in the hall with his peripheral vision, and his heart was filled with waves.
Sure enough, it is Marquis of Knowing Fate, almost identical to the statue in the palace.
The world-famous Martial Marquis is finally back.
"You can see it if you want, no need to be sneaky."
Ning Chen felt the curious and reserved gazes of the ministers and smiled.
In front of the dragon throne, Xia Chi also spoke, "This is my mentor, and the Marquis of Knowing Fate you have always wanted to see. Today, you don't have to be polite. If you have anything to say or ask, feel free to say it."
Xia Emperor spoke, and below, the ministers relaxed a little, raised their heads and looked at Marquis of Knowing Fate in the hall, the curiosity in their eyes could not be concealed.
"I heard that Marquis was the number one master of the Divine Continent a hundred years ago. I wonder what level Marquis's martial arts is now?" A newly named Martial Marquis said with a respectful expression.
"Fourth Realm, the peak of King Realm." Ning Chen said with a smile.
After hearing this, all the ministers were in an uproar. It was said that Divine Continent and even Five Domains, the strongest warrior, had just broken through the King Realm, but Marquis of Knowing Fate had reached the peak of the King Realm.
Next to Ning Chen, Qing Ling chuckled. Martial arts in the world started too late, and most of the masters who sent the gods to fight have also left. This guy's cultivation can only scare people in the Divine Continent.
Fortunately, the war between the two realms did not affect the inner realm. Otherwise, with the martial arts power within the realm, the entire Five Domains would have suffered a disaster.
"Marquis, how can we take the step Fourth Realm?" Martial Marquis asked again.
"Master a law of heaven and earth."
Ning Chen said patiently, "This law will be the foundation of your martial arts. If you cannot truly master it, I suggest you not to rush into the Fourth Realm. Otherwise, the foundation will be unstable and you will be unable to move forward in the future."
In the hall, all the Great Xia generals became quiet after hearing the words, especially the three contemporary Martial Marquis, who looked at each other with something in their minds.
They have been stuck in the third realm Great Perfection for too long, but they still can't find a way to break through the Fourth Realm. They didn't expect the reason to be here.
"Bai Ye What you practice is the way of swordsmanship. Just focus on the sword. There is no need to distract yourself from other laws of heaven and earth. When you become successful in the way of swordsmanship, you can naturally enter Fourth Realm." Ning Chen reminded.
"Master's teachings, disciples should remember them carefully." Bai Ye, between the two Martial Marquiss, responded respectfully.
"Kong Yu, you were the first to follow me. Because of the Great Xia war, the foundation of martial arts was not laid well. Now that the cultivation level has been surpassed by these juniors, do you ever regret it in your heart." Ning Chen looked at the man in front of Bai Ye and said seriously.
Kong Yu was silent, and after a moment, he said, "Although I am unwilling, I never regret it."
Ning Chen nodded and said, "Today, I will repay you for the time I owed you."
As soon as the words fell, silver light rose around Ning Chen, Heavenly Tome unrolled, and the wind and snow in the sky quickly spread in all directions with the Heavenly Edict Hall as the center.
The shocking power of the king shocked the nine provinces, Great Xia Imperial City. Thousands of people looked at the snowflakes falling from the sky, with strange colors on their faces.
It was sunny just now, why did it suddenly snow?
In the Heavenly Edict Hall, under the shocked eyes of the ministers, Ning Chen took action, and Heaven and Earth Spiritual Energy gathered crazily, sinking into Kong Yu's body one after another.
Heavenly Tome was tempered, and severe pain arose. Kong Yu groaned, the skin all over his body cracked, and blood spilled out.
"Keep your mind."
Ning Chen said calmly, increased his strength by another 30%, and fully assisted Kong Yu in tempering his foundation.
A quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour... time passed little by little, and around the Heavenly Edict Hall, the diffuse wind and snow gradually stopped and calm returned.
Within the Heavenly Edict Hall, Ning Chen stopped his hand, a look of fatigue flashed across his face, and said, "Okay."
Kong Yu opened his eyes and felt the full strength in his body. His eyes were filled with excitement. He immediately knelt down and saluted, "Marquis This is a great kindness, which I will never forget."
Ning Chen waved his hand to stop the former from kneeling, and said softly, "I told you, you are now Martial Marquis too, and you cannot bend your knees to others easily."
Kong Yu was shocked when he heard this. After a moment, he straightened up, bowed and said, "Kong Yu remember Marquis's teachings."
In the main hall, the ministers looked at this scene with extremely complicated eyes.
Martial Marquis of Great Xia is now too high regardless of status or status. The reason lies in this Marquis of Knowing Fate.
It can be said that the emergence of Marquis of Knowing Fate has once again raised the already high weight of Great Xia Martial Marquis to a higher level.
"What are you worried about?"
Ning Chen moved his eyes, looked at the ministers, and said calmly, "Are you worried that they have too much power and become power-seeking ministers?"
When the ministers heard this, they all looked shocked and immediately lowered their heads, not daring to look directly in front of them. Marquis of Knowing Fate.
What are they thinking, and how does Marquis of Knowing Fate know?
In front of the dragon throne, Xia Chi sighed in his heart. In front of the master, the scheming of these ministers was still too much to show.
"Yes!"
Among the ministers, an old minister with gray hair and beard gritted his teeth and walked out, saying in a deep voice, "Marquis, the power of my government Martial Marquis is too great. If Martial Marquis goes against it, the country will not be a country."
"Do you think so too?"
Ning Chen looked at the ministers behind the old minister and said.
The ministers were silent and did not dare to respond.
"Will you rebel?"
Ning Chen looked over, looked at the three Martial Marquis guarding the court, and said calmly.
"Don't dare."
The expressions of Kong Yu and Bai Ye changed and they responded.
"Two hundred years ago, Great Xia had a rebellious Martial Marquis. A hundred years ago, Great Xia once again had a Martial Marquis who wanted to rebel."
Ning Chen said calmly, "What I mean, do you understand?"
The three of them looked at each other and saluted at the same time, "We are willing to delegate power."
Ning Chen nodded and said calmly, "Power can easily corrode people's hearts. Great Xia Martial Marquis's glory is obtained with blood and military exploits, not with power. Do you understand?"
"We will obey your instructions." The three of them responded respectfully.
Martial Marquis Reduction of power, Great Xia All the ministers looked at this scene with shock in their eyes.
Marquis of Knowing Fate, as Martial Marquis, actually personally reduced Martial Marquis's power, which is unbelievable in front of him.
"Old minister Ji Rong, thank you Marquis for your generosity."
In front of all the ministers, the old minister with white beard and white hair bowed tremblingly and said excitedly.
"Surname Ji, are you a descendant of the Master?"
Ning Chen asked with a strange color flashing in his eyes.
"Yes."
The white-bearded veteran said respectfully.
Ning Chen went up, helped the former up with his own hands, and said, "The Master was kind to me back then, and I feel relieved to see his descendants here today."
After a brief interlude, the ministers gradually felt at ease. From time to time, ministers came out to ask for advice on minor and minor matters.
Ning Chen was not in a hurry and patiently answered the ministers' questions one by one.
Outside the palace, the sun sets, and the day gradually passes. Inside the palace, the ministers reluctantly leave. After many years of service as an official, for the first time, I feel that Heavenly Edict Hall, who is constantly fighting openly and secretly, is so nostalgic.
"These ministers have not been so magnanimous in many years."
The ministers left, Xia Chi walked down from the dragon chair and spoke.
"Because now I have no conflict of interest with them, so they can feel free to ask for advice." Ning Chen said with a smile.
"Master still sees people's hearts so clearly." Xia Chi said with a smile.
"Okay, no need to flatter you, I want to ask you something, is the emperor of Northern Mongol Royal Court still Mingyue?" Ning Chen asked.
"No."
Hearing this, Xia Chi shook his head and said, "As early as twenty years ago, Mingyue had given up the throne of Northern Mongolia and disappeared since then."
