Dafeng's Night Squad

There was a sense of lethargy in him, and lethargy was not a derogatory term. It was just that people yearned for a new life, so this term was often not in line with people’s preferences.

The old man’s lethargic aura was the result of the accumulation of time, an aura that was more ancient than the vicissitudes of life.

He was the same age as Guo, born on the weekend, and had witnessed the rise and fall of two dynasties.

He had risen up in the chaotic world and led the righteous Masters to overthrow the tyranny. He had experienced too many things and seen too many people.

The lethargic air naturally seeped into his bones.

The strange thing was that Xu Qi ‘an didn’t see such lethargic air on the supervisor, the emotionless Arhat, or the two Vajra realm experts.

Was it because he had been living in the mortal world all this time … Or was it because he was a vulgar martial artist … Xu Qian thought.

After a long while, the old man slowly said, ”

“When Emperor Wu Zong rebelled and usurped the throne, I was not in seclusion. At that time, the Emperor of Dafeng had gotten close to the treacherous officials, causing chaos in the court.

“Of course, a moment of political chaos is nothing compared to the chaos at the end of the dynasty.

“Wu Zong is great ancestor’s grandson. His talent is not below grandfather’s, and his personality is the same. He took advantage of the dissatisfaction of the court towards the fatuous Emperor and treacherous officials at that time, and in the name of purging the Emperor, he recruited troops and bought horses to launch a rebellion.

“This is very smart. If he directly revolted, he would not win the hearts of the people and would not get the help of wise people.

“At that time, he was only a third-rank martial artist. It was as difficult as ascending to heaven to rebel under the eyes of the first supervisor.

“So, he cleverly found three helpers:Confucianism, Buddhism, current supervisor.”

Hearing this, Xu Qi ‘an had to interrupt him and said in surprise, ”

“But I heard that when Emperor Wu Zong rebelled 500 years ago, the Confucians did nothing from the beginning to the end,”

The old man chuckled, ”

“Standing by is the greatest help. Otherwise, with the foundation of the scholarly faction and the addition of a first generation supervisor, how could Wu Zong succeed? Unless the Buddha himself took action.

“The Confucians had long been dissatisfied with the Emperor of that time, but the first generation supervisor kept him in check, leaving the Confucians helpless.”

He waited for a moment. Seeing that Xu Qi ‘an had no questions, he continued, ”

“When Emperor Wu Zong first started his rebellion, he did not have enough soldiers under his command to contend against the entire great Feng. Hence, he targeted martial Union.

“And the one in charge of persuading me to send troops is the current supervisor.

“I didn’t agree at first, but what benefits can I get if this is done? The Grandmaster would never give the Jian province to me. If I lose, martial Union, which I’ve painstakingly built for over a hundred years, will very likely be destroyed in a single day.

“Why don’t you guess how he convinced me?”

“Is it related to this agreement?” Xu Qian’s heart moved.

The old man nodded, then shook his head.

“To be precise, it’s a deal.

“In the hundred years since I returned to Jianzhou and established martial Union, I’ve long since advanced to peak rank-3. However, I’ve never been able to reach Dao integration.

“The scariest thing in the world is not difficulties and setbacks, but not being able to see hope. Ji’s cultivation base was similar to mine back then. After he became an Emperor, his cultivation base improved by leaps and bounds, and he finally stepped into the ranks of first-grade martial artists.

“I’m not convinced, so I’ve never asked him about his Dao integration stage experience.”

What a shameless question, you old man. you’ve snatched all the bamboo shoots from Quanrong mountain … Xu Qian complained silently in his heart.

at that time. I didn’t know the rule that those who were lucky couldn’t live forever.. few decades later, before I could convince myself, Ji became a short-lived ghost and actually died …

The old man shook his head and laughed, ”

“I’m afraid that first generation girl is crying her eyes out, hahaha. I’ve always suspected that he’s a rabbit. * Cough cough * “In short, I’ve been stuck at peak rank-3 for many years. I can’t break through, and I can’t see any hope of breaking through.

until that day, the current supervisor came to me. He said that as long as I was willing to send troops to help a martial arts Grandmaster seize the throne, he would help me advance to the second grade.

Xu Qi ‘an laughed.

“I understand, old senior, you’ve been tricked by the supervisor. I didn’t expect the director to be an old politician.”

The old man glanced at him and said with a faint smile, ”

“I used to think the same way, but now, I’ve really advanced to the second stage.”

Ten seconds after he finished speaking, the smile on Xu Qi ‘an’s face remained unchanged. Then, he seemed to have thought of something. The smile stiffened on his face and slowly disappeared.

If there was a camera that could capture the entire process, his ‘acting skills’ would be absolutely superb.

. Xu Qi ‘an looked at the old man in a daze. His lips moved, and he said with difficulty, ”

“You mean to say that the nine-colored lotus root, no, my help, is to keep the promise that I made?”

“I can’t think of a better explanation,” the old man replied.

Buzzzzzz! Buzzzzzz! Buzzzzzz!

Xu Qi ‘an took three steps back and stared at the old man in a daze. His face suddenly twisted, and it was hard to tell whether he was surprised or scared.

Or perhaps, both.

Outsiders had no way of knowing what he was thinking. Under his dull face, there was an overwhelming emotion, an explosive surge of information.

If things were really as the old man said, what did that mean?

“I remember Xu Pingfeng said that the divinator has the ability to see the future, which is why you can’t interfere with what he sees. He could only set things up in the dark and influence them from the side.
