However, the top of Mount Taidong, where the nuclear war shaved off the top of the mountain, is completely bare and unsuitable for sniping.
Ye Liuyun said with some worry, "But for some reason, Regent Li Chang'an has been making excuses."
Fan Xian scoffed, "Three refusals and three offers, huh? What a hypocrite!"
Ye Liuyun said, "That's not the case. He's already declined six times. I don't know what he's trying to do?"
Even Emperor Qing was anxious and wished he could go to the Dragon Guard Manor in person.
At this moment, Ku He calmly said, "Everyone, there's no need to be anxious."
"In the battle of the Grandmasters, we all want to finish the job in one fell swoop."
"It is estimated that Li Chang'an is also considering that he cannot use the divine weapon on the summit of Mount Dadong, and is thinking of other ways."
"We will remain unchanged and wait for the inevitable to unfold."
At this gathering, Fan Xian's side did not tell Ye Liuyun one thing.
Wu Zhu has regained his memories of Fan Xian and has remembered everything about Ye Qingmei.
What makes them even more confident is that all of Wuzhu's functions have been activated by the temple, and the laser eyes can also be used.
Therefore, Wu Zhu is now in his complete form!
This is also why Ku He is not in a hurry; in his opinion, Wu Zhu is already stronger than all of them.
However, the restoration of the temple still affected Wu Zhu, for example, the temple forbade him to use his abilities publicly.
Therefore, Wu Zhu was unwilling to go directly to the Nanqing Palace and kill indiscriminately.
Waiting for Emperor Qing to leave the palace and come to Dadongshan is the best opportunity.
Hulong Villa.
The back garden features pavilions and towers, filled with birdsong and fragrant flowers.
It was already evening, and Li Chang'an was sitting leisurely in a pavilion.
Ye Ling'er held a long sword and danced in the pavilion.
At this moment, Ye Ling'er was as graceful as a sword immortal descending to earth, with an elegant demeanor and unparalleled beauty.
After finishing her dance, Ye Ling'er nimbly leaped to Li Chang'an's side.
Li Chang'an stretched out a hand, and Ye Ling'er obediently leaned against Li Chang'an's chest.
"My husband, did Ling'er dance well?"
Li Chang'an said with satisfaction, "Very good, it can rival Wan'er's dance."
Ye Ling'er and Lin Wan'er's love-hate relationship is escalating, and Ye Ling'er is naturally pleased with Li Chang'an's words.
“My husband, Father has sent a letter. He is living very comfortably in Langya City.”
"He said that after the Nanzhao Kingdom surrendered, there were repeated rebellions, which even gave His Majesty a headache."
"However, the Western Qin Kingdom was at peace, and its officials and people had no objection to surrendering to Daqing."
Li Chang'an smiled and said, "Really? That's because Marshal Ye has rendered meritorious service in guarding the city; he should be granted the title of Duke of Zhenguo!"
The naive Ye Ling'er had no idea that Ye Chong was complaining about losing power and not having to do anything.
But he felt strange; he hadn't done anything, yet the Western Qin Kingdom was peaceful.
"Ling'er thanks my husband on behalf of her father!"
"Father is going to be granted the title of Duke of Zhenguo, and my eldest brother is going to be Marquis of Polu. The Ye family's status is even higher than before!"
Li Chang'an gently stroked Ye Ling'er's delicate cheek and said softly, "The Ye family has been loyal and virtuous for generations, and this is what they deserve."
Then he said in a low voice, "Ling'er, go back to your room and wait. I will go to your place tonight."
Ye Ling'er smiled sweetly, then lifted her skirt and left happily.
Not long after she left, a green shadow flashed in front of Li Chang'an, and Ye Liuyun stood before him.
"Your Highness the Regent is quite cunning; knowing I was coming, he deliberately staged this whole thing."
Li Chang'an smiled calmly, "Elder Ye is joking. Everything I have said and done comes from the bottom of my heart."
“Ling’er is truly devoted to me, and Ye Wan is a commendable loyal subject. Although Ye Zhong’s mind is fickle, I am not stingy with the title of Duke.”
"Elder Ye should know that you firmly stand on my side, and the Ye family is the most prestigious family in the Qing Kingdom."
"Of course, even if you betray us, I will still treat the Ye family well."
Ye Liuyun said with some surprise, "You're so young, yet you have quite a big heart."
Li Chang'an shook his head. "No, it's not that I have a broad mind, but that I'm not afraid of your betrayal."
Ye Liuyun glanced at Li Chang'an, flicked his sleeves, and said, "It seems you don't have a big heart, but rather a big mouth."
【排名：权势2、财富1、武力1、风流1、文艺1】
Li Chang'an glanced at his own panel and thought to himself that he hadn't been bragging at all.
The reason he kept delaying accepting the abdication was that he was diligently practicing the Yi Jin Jing (Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic), waiting to seize power by force.
He hasn't fully mastered the intermediate stage of the Black-level Floating Pagoda, but his martial prowess has already surpassed that of Wu Zhu.
The Wu Zhu recognized by the system is, of course, the complete Wu Zhu.
Since this group of people went to the temple, Li Chang'an cannot rule out the possibility that the temple might have released Wu Zhu from his seal.
Once you reach the Grandmaster level, the intelligence network becomes useless; it can't gather any important information.
When it comes to the final battle of the Grandmasters, only absolute strength matters.
Li Chang'an is now capable of fighting against Wu Zhu in his fully evolved form.
Even Wu Zhu's laser eyes could not break through the defense of the vast Northern Darkness True Qi.
Therefore, even if Ye Liuyun really betrays us, it won't affect the outcome of the battle.
Ye Liuyun watched Ye Ling'er run out of the back garden and sighed, "I just can't let go of these descendants."
"Rest assured, I will never betray the Qing Kingdom."
"Fan Xian has already concluded that the divine weapon is in your hands, but I have not informed His Majesty of this matter."
Li Chang'an exclaimed, "Those who understand the times are wise; Elder Ye, your choice is correct."
It was precisely because the divine weapon was with Li Chang'an that Ye Liuyun contacted Li Chang'an in private.
"Actually, this matter is not important. Given His Majesty's caution, he also has some doubts about the ownership of the divine weapon."
"That's why His Majesty chose Mount Dadong as the location for the abdication."
Ye Liuyun reminded him, "His Majesty is not simple, but even I cannot fathom his true intentions."
Li Chang'an said, "It's alright, let him pretend, it's best if he pretends until he dies."
Ye Liuyun was somewhat surprised by Li Chang'an's confidence, but he also couldn't figure out Li Chang'an's trump card.
"Regent, in the battle of the Grandmasters, life and death are uncertain."
"If I die, I hope Your Highness will not break your promise and will treat the Ye family well."
Li Chang'an replied, "Elder Ye is right. In the battle of Grandmasters, everyone has hidden trump cards."
"Be cautious in all matters; the situation in the world will be largely settled next month!"
Ye Liuyun asked, "Has Your Highness decided to accept the abdication?"
Li Chang'an nodded. "Everything is ready, so we should take the lead."
One month later, at Dadongshan.
Sixty thousand troops from the Dongda Camp were stationed at the foot of Dadong Mountain.
Ten thousand garrison troops, ten thousand imperial guards, and ten thousand black-armored dragon cavalry, dispatched from Kyoto, surrounded the foot of Mount Taito.
At the summit were more than thirty ministers who had accompanied them, as well as hundreds of palace eunuchs and maids, along with secret guards and inner court guards.
For the first time in the history of the Qing Kingdom, the throne was abdicated, and the Qing Emperor, who had dominated the country for more than 20 years, was about to become the retired emperor.
The abdication ceremony proceeded in an orderly manner, while on the other side of the mountain wall, two figures were rapidly climbing.
Si Gu Jian and Ku He flew out from the deepest cave in Da Dong Shan.
With their mastery of lightness skills, the two men, standing atop the towering Dadong Mountain, only needed to use the mountain walls to gain momentum a few times before they were almost at the summit.
Si Gu Men looked at the black dot at the foot of the mountain and thought, "Is Master Wu Zhu being too arrogant? He's still standing in the same spot."
Ku He also glanced back, "Nonsense, how could the temple messenger deceive us?"
Just as Si Gu Jian was about to retort, he suddenly saw Wu Zhu jump up on the spot!
There were no light-footed movements involved; he just bounced upwards from the spot!
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, Wu Zhu had already leaped thousands of feet into the air!
Si Gu Jian and Ku He were dumbfounded!
If Grandmasters also have ranks, then Wu Zhu in his complete form is more than one rank higher than them!
