Chapter 817: Perfected Heaven Ascension
Chapter 817: Perfected Heaven Ascension
To put it bluntly, Zhang Ronghua was also coveting the books in the Hall of Myriad Books. There were simply too many books in the huge palace, including books from the ancient, medieval, and ancient times. By reading all of them, his accumulation would reach a terrifying level, and the benefits would be enormous.
“Yes.”
He opened the palace door and left. He instructed Han Zhenggang to send someone to inform the Palace of Ten Thousand Books if anything happened.
On the way to the inner palace.
With the True Dragon Token in hand, he didn’t need to worry about being stopped as long as he didn’t go to the forbidden area.
“Isn’t Han Zhenggang working for He Wenxuan?” Ding Yi was puzzled.
Zhang Ronghua said,” Before he took office yesterday, he received some advice from Grand Secretary Cui. He’s good at judging the situation. He took the initiative to come over. He can use it, but not all of it.”
Ding Yi understood. In terms of understanding people’s hearts, he was still not as good as his brother.
As they spoke, they arrived at the Hall of Ten Thousand Books.
” Greetings, sirs!” The leader of the Human Emperor guards cupped his fists and bowed.
“Yes.”
The two of them took out their True Dragon Tokens and after checking them, Sima let go and respectfully retreated to the side.
He pushed open the door and walked in. Sima ordered someone to close the door.
In the main hall.
“You can’t read even if I told you to,” said Zhang Ronghua.”You’re cultivating the Twelve Heaven Trampling Steps here.”
“Brother, you would have done it even if you didn’t say it.”
He walked over.
Starting from the outermost layer, he took a book and flipped through it seriously. His speed was very fast, and he could memorize ten lines at a glance. He even comprehended all of them and made them his own. In his hands, he finished reading a book in less than ten breaths. He took the next book and continued to read it to increase his foundation…
In the royal study.
Eunuch Xiao controlled his breathing as he pushed open the doors of the palace and carefully walked in. He closed the doors and stopped near the imperial platform. Wei Shang’s old brows furrowed slightly as he thought to himself,” Did something happen again?”
Eunuch Xiao walked down from the top and stopped at the side. He took a step forward and whispered a few words into his ear. Then, he stood still.
” You’re here?” Wei Shang’s eyes gleamed. He lowered his voice and ordered,” Bring some spiritual fruits and pastries in your name.”
“Yes, sir!” Eunuch Xiao turned around and left.
When the door closed.
Wei Shang returned and stopped beside the Xia Emperor. Seeing that the Emperor was reading memorials, he poured a cup of tea and brought it over.
The Xia Emperor acted as if he hadn’t seen it. He continued to read until he was done with the memorial. He placed the imperial brush on the inkstone and took the teacup. Holding the lid, he asked in a low voice,” What is it?”
“Qing Lin brought Chang Qing to the Hall of Ten Thousand Books,” Wei Shang said with a smile.
The Xia Emperor paused, and a rare smile appeared on his tense face.
“I asked Xiao Zhong to send some spiritual fruits and pastries in his name.”
” I was right. Previously, I was held up by many miscellaneous matters in the Ministry of Works. When I arrived at the Imperial Censorate and opened up the situation, I began to prepare. Thank you for your hard work.”
He took a sip of tea.
The smile on the Xia Emperor’s face disappeared. His draconic eyes were cold, and there was a shocking killing intent hidden within them.” Have you found the remaining members of the Ning family?”
” He traced it to Shangping County, but the trail was cut off there. This old servant surmised that he was silenced.”
Emperor Xia had a headache too. Zhang Ronghua was too outstanding and powerful. Other than his political enemies in the imperial court, there were many people who wanted to kill him in secret, especially in the martial world. Just the Absolute Beginning Demon God alone had blocked many of them. It was fine to capture him alive, but now that the clues had been cut off, no matter how powerful the people below were, they could not make bricks without straw.
” Hongling has sent some people to the Vermilion Bird Avenue and other industries,” Wei Shang continued.” Qinglin will provide food and accommodation, as well as cultivation resources.”
“Zhen remembers that Cao Xing is his man, right?”
“Yes, sir!”
“Pass down the order to have Cao Xing send a portion of the Golden Scale Mysterious Heaven Army over.”
Wei Shang understood that he was using his name. If outsiders asked, Cao Hang would take the blame, but he would not be punished.
“This old servant will arrange it now.”
The Xia Emperor handed over a cup of tea. Wei Shang hurriedly caught it and placed it on the table. His cold voice contained a powerful killing intent.” Did they succeed?”
“All the heads of the three clans have been secretly sent over!”
Although Zhao Chengjie had been captured and handed over to the Absolute Beginning Demon God, he was still very tight-lipped. He had been an official in Great Xia for so many years and had done countless bad things. He even married a woman from Great Xia and committed countless crimes. How could he just let it go?
Emperor Xia ordered the Grand Primordium Demon God in the Shang Imperial City to find out Zhao Chengjie’s background before taking action. He wanted to destroy his three clans, behead all of them, and bring them back to the capital.
Zhao Chengjie had made a lot of contributions. His family was protected by the Primordial Demon God, so they could not stop the assassination that the Primordial Demon God had planned for a long time. Last night, his subordinates brought back the head.
Kill the chicken to warn the monkeys!
So what if he was in the Shang Dynasty? As long as they dared to betray him, this was the outcome.
“Send these heads to him for him to see, then hang them at the north gate,” the Xia Emperor said.
“Yes, sir!”
He looked in the direction of the Hall of Ten Thousand Books.
“I’ll be waiting for your good news!” The Xia Emperor’s face was filled with anticipation.
The Hall of Ten Thousand Books.
In the hall.
“Grandpa Xiao, why are you here?” asked Zhang Ronghua with a smile.
Eunuch Xiao didn’t play dumb.” Eunuch Wei has instructed me to pay attention to the movements of the Hall of Ten Thousand Books. If you go, report it immediately. He just told me to bring some spiritual fruits and pastries to visit in my own name.”
Zhang Ronghua could guess why. He cupped his hands in the direction of the royal study and said,” Grandpa Xiao, please tell Eunuch Wei that Qinglin will study hard and work hard to enrich herself.”
“Alright.”
After chatting for a while, Eunuch Xiao left.
Ding Yi took a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it in big mouthfuls.
Zhang Ronghua took a piece and tasted it. It was indeed very sweet. The craftsmanship was not bad. He took a piece and walked to the bookshelf. He read while eating.
The news about them also reached the ears of those who were interested.
Time passed quickly when one was doing something seriously. Unknowingly, he had reached the bottom of the value. He put down the book in his hand and looked at the sea of books in front of him. Not only was Zhang Ronghua not tired, but he was also not afraid. Instead, he was full of energy.” With my speed, it will take me some time to finish reading.”
He called out.
“Go back!”
Ding Yi stopped. After cultivating for a day, the Twelve Heaven Trampling Steps wasn’t far from the entrance. He stretched his back and the two of them left, walking out of the palace.
At the Vermillion Bird Sect.
Uncle Ding had been waiting for them for a long time. When he saw them come out, he put the small stool on the ground and greeted them respectfully.” Young Master, Qinglin.”
The two of them nodded and stepped into the carriage. They changed their clothes in the car.
“Brother, do you still remember Zhu Yue?” asked Ding Yi.
“What’s wrong?”
“Just a drop of my heart blood?”
Zhang Ronghua thought of Zhu Huang and Zhu Jiutian. Both of them were people of the dark. He had guessed that the Candle Dragon Clan might have joined in. Could Zhu Yue also be a person of the dark?
Maybe, maybe not!
Thinking of this, he made a decision. He would try it out at the Education Bureau later.
” If you compare everything in the world to a commodity, men are one of them. If you want to attract the same or higher grade goods of the opposite sex and increase your own value, you can also understand it as self-cultivation. A moment of happiness without any emotional foundation. Is it really happiness?”
Ding Yi was silent. He had the most say in this aspect. Every time he cultivated the Gold Emperor Burning Heavens Art to balance the Yin and Yang, his heart would feel empty. He was not happy at all. On the contrary, he hated it and felt that it was boring. That was all there was to it. However, he could not control himself every time!
“You’re not young either. If you meet a suitable girl, you should be bold enough to chase after her.”
“Yes.” Ding Yi remembered.
“But, but my reputation is bad. What if they don’t agree?”
“Sincerity can break metal and stone,” said Zhang Ronghua.
