"So, none of you have ever witnessed the so-called True Dragon Qi?"
Xu Xiao didn't care about the Yuwen Family's unfulfilled wishes; he only wanted to figure out the origin of the True Dragon Qi.
"I have seen it all," Yuwen Shang said with a look of reminiscence.
"Back when we were fighting against Goryeo, I made a crucial mistake and was crushed by an avalanche blasted by Goryeo Grandmaster, nearly dying. It was Yang Guang who saved me with his True Dragon Qi."
"It was a strange energy filled with the ultimate yang and masculine power of heaven and earth, unlike internal martial arts qi, yet surpassing it."
"It lacks the effects of prolonging life and nourishing the body, but it can make the Emperor of Destiny a master that even Grandmaster cannot defeat."
"During the three campaigns against Goryeo, Fu Cailin attempted to assassinate Yang Guang several times, but he relied on the True Dragon Qi to stall for time until the army arrived to rescue him."
"However, in recent years, with the domestic turmoil and the outbreak of war everywhere, Yang Guang's True Dragon Qi has also faded, and he probably no longer possesses the power he once had."
"This lad can prove it," Yuwen Huaji said, bowing respectfully.
"A few days ago, that Yang Guang blamed me for the frequent assassinations by Goryeo, and I couldn't help but argue with him for a bit."
"Back then, that Yang Guang also attacked me in anger, but I blocked it with my internal energy."
"According to my estimation, its True Dragon Qi has weakened to a level slightly weaker than mine."
Yuwen Huaji recounted his experiences, which corroborated Yuwen Shang's statement and coincided with Xu Xiao's thoughts.
"So it seems that the True Dragon Qi can only unleash its full power when the world is unified and the country is peaceful and prosperous?"
Xu Xiao nodded; this was roughly what he had predicted.
This world contains real records of Shattering the Void, as well as the elusive War God Temple, and various spiritual worlds and consciousness spaces.
Overall, its level surpasses that of the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils World, and it can be considered a basic world of high-level martial arts.
The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils World is teeming with martial arts masters, not just those from the Jianghu (martial arts world), but also from various powerful clans and warlords.
Moreover, top-tier experts can influence the outcome of a battle, though not in the way Xu Xiao single-handedly fought against hundreds of thousands of troops.
Telekinesis is truly a cheat code, incomparable to martial arts.
Even a martial Great Grandmaster are not broken, can be worn down to death even if they withstand an army of hundreds of thousands.
This is also why, even after Song Que Heavenly Saber Blade had mastered his divine skills, he could only serve as a bargaining chip for Kou Zhong in his struggle for the world, rather than a decisive factor.
"Then let's try it step by step. After I wipe out Cihang Jingzhai, I'll open the Duke Yang's Treasury, and your Yuwen Family can raise the banner and start an uprising."
"I will help you take care of all those so-called martial arts masters one by one. I hope you'll show some backbone."
"Once this is accomplished, the Yuwen Family will retain your family's rights, and anyone who obstructs will be crushed to death."
Xu Xiao revealed his plans, exuding an aura of dominance.
He never hides his actions; he pushes everything aside, and anyone who stands in his way dies.
"I am willing to die for you, sir!!"
The members of the Yuwen Family exchanged glances, all displaying utmost loyalty.
There was no way they could disobey orders when faced with absolute power.
Having witnessed Xu Xiao's power, Yuwen Shang had absolutely no doubt that Xu Xiao could handle all the top experts in the world.
'I wonder if Ning Daoqi, the so-called Grandmaster of the world, and Song Que, the number one person in the imperial court, can withstand a few moves from this madman.'
Compared to his own defeat, the suffering of those stronger than himself was undoubtedly more gratifying.
Moreover, as the first family to align themselves with Xu Xiao, whether they are lackeys or subordinates, as long as Yuwen Family Yuwen Family survives and maintains their status, that's all that matters.
There will always be opportunities in the future. Surely no one can really be an emperor for ten thousand years?
Long live, long live, long live forever—it's nothing but wishful thinking!
After concluding his conversation with the Yuwen Family, Xu Xiao naturally had to attend to his own business.
He first went to check on the Twin Dragons and found that they had both begun to practice the basic cultivation method of Qi. Xu Xu nodded slowly to himself.
Although the two of them don't need to cultivate the Secret of Longevity to open Duke Yang's Treasury, their status as protagonists cannot be wasted.
The emperor possesses the True Dragon Qi, and the protagonist's luck emanating from the Twin Dragons is certainly not to be missed.
Upon entering the Yuwen Family, Xu Xiao arranged for two instructors to teach the Twin Dragons basic internal energy cultivation techniques, aiming to have them begin practicing the Carefree Wind Riding within the next two days.
Xu Xiao also wanted to see if the protagonist's luck was really that magical, and whether he could achieve something on a different path.
Seeing the Twin Dragons, Xu Xiao naturally returned to the backyard to sleep, as there were no two beauties waiting for him there.
The Yuwen Family had originally arranged for some maids and distant female relatives to come, but Xu Xiao refused them all.
He only collects famous leading and supporting actresses; he doesn't even look at ordinary women.
The door opened slightly, and Li Xiuning and Fu Junzhuo, having finished washing up, sat quietly on the bed.
Both of them had their pressure points sealed, and were helped by the Yuwen Family's maids to wash and dress, and then changed into clean clothes.
At this moment, Xu Xiao entered, so there was no need to restrain them anymore. With Telekinesis, the pressure points on the two were released.
Li Xiuning remained silent, neither crying nor making a fuss, sitting there without uttering a word.
Fu Junzhuo looked at Xu Xiao nervously, her pretty face full of tension.
"You... you... don't come any closer, don't come any closer!!"
Seeing Xu Xiao approaching, she could only slowly incline towards the bed.
Both of Xu Xu underwent psychological modifications that prevented them from committing suicide. The reason Xu Xiao didn't directly control them was simply because he didn't want to work with puppets.
What he wanted was the unique Spiritual Energy of different women; without that, they were just a lump of flesh, what was the point?
"What, am I that scary, Fu Junzhuo?"
Xu Xiao didn't rush to force himself on him, but instead sat down on the edge of the bed.
" Mr. Xu, a highly respected and accomplished person like you, don't you feel ashamed to use such methods to deal with a woman?"
Thinking about what she was about to suffer, Fu Junzhuo couldn't help but curse angrily.
Although she was prepared to sacrifice everything when she came to the Central Plains to assassinate Yang Guang, it was for the sake of the common people of Goryeo.
Now, as Xu Xiao's spoils of war, she has been thrown onto this soft couch, about to experience everything she fears.
"Shame? Why should I be ashamed? I got you through my own abilities, what's wrong with that?"
Xu Xiao said it as a matter of course.
"But even if you get my body, you won't get my heart!"
Fu Junzhuo tried her best to explain that no woman would willingly be forced, even if she liked Xu Xiao's appearance and respected his martial arts skills.
"What would I do with your heart? I just need you." Xu Xiao curled his lip, unconvinced.
The human heart is a fickle thing, and it's useless to him to control it.
Forced fruit isn't sweet, but it quenches thirst!
Moreover, Xu Xiao has plenty of ways to make people submit.
"Serve me well, and the people of Goryeo will have one less chance of being slaughtered because of you."
Xu Xiao spoke in a 'friendly' manner.
"You..."
"If you remain as stubborn as her, the Longxi Li Family will pay the price for everything that has happened today."
" The Yuwen Family is about to rise up. Once I've unified the world, those who stand in my way and their families will naturally be dealt with properly."
