Mr. Bodyguard Novel - Chapter 737
Chapter 737 Reasons For Cooperation
When the brilliance reflected by the Moonlight Mirror reached its peak, it meant that the night was already very late. After that, the brilliance of the Moonlight Mirror would slowly fade away, and then the brilliance of the Skylight Mirror would gradually bloom out.
At this moment, at the foot of Mu Yun Mountain, Dong Xu’s people and the soldiers of Imperial City were engaged in a fierce battle. At the entrance of the Imperial City, Xuanyuan Dibing was leading Long Yu and Hua Qidi to the rear courtyard of the City Lord’s Mansion. Jiang Feng and Sima Xin were dealing with the Primordial formation at the bottom of the lake.
At the same time, in the Imperial Clan Guild Hall of Tantai Imperial City, a woman wearing a black cloak was walking through the corridor. Behind the woman were two green-clothed women, each carrying a long sword. Not a single beautiful face was hidden from view, and under the moonlight, one would be surprised to see it.
At the end of the corridor, eight guards responsible for patrolling the Imperial Clan Guild Hall had just turned out from the corner. The two bodyguards raised their heads and saw the three women. The two bodyguards immediately asked in unison, “Who are you? How did you get in? Do you know that being good at the Imperial Clan Guild Hall is a felony?”
“Quack!” The black-clothed woman said indifferently. The two green-clothed women behind the black-clothed woman immediately moved.
Two green shadows flashed across the corridor, and the two swords were thrown into the air by the two women in green. The sword was unsheathed in midair, and a cold light suddenly appeared.
All of a sudden, the eight patrol guards seemed to have been cast a body-fixing spell, and they didn’t move at all.
Qiang!
Two green-clothed women stood behind the eight patrol maids. The two of them stood apart and waited for the black-clothed woman to pass by.
The black-clothed woman strolled past the eight patrol guards. From beginning to end, she didn’t even look at the eight patrol guards. His arrogant posture was evident even in his cloak.
Just as the three women turned the corner, a bloody scar appeared on the necks of the eight patrol guards standing on the spot.
Then the bloodstains gradually widened, and finally, a bloody mist erupted. Blood gushed out from the necks of the eight patrol guards like a fountain and the corpses fell to the ground.
The Imperial Clan Guild Hall had mentioned before that this was a reception area specially prepared by Tantai Imperial City for high-class nobles above the royal clan.
The entire Primordial world was extremely particular about the difference between superiority and inferiority, so even this Imperial Clan Guild Hall had a difference of 369 degrees.
The Imperial Clan Guild Hall was arranged according to the Flying Star Nine Palaces. Normally, the Central Palace was the place where the saint clan’s Clan Chief could stay. The rest, even the saints’ clan masters, could only stay in the Platinum Shock Palace in the east.
In the past, Shen Chenfeng was only a descendant of the Shen Clan, so even if he stayed in the Imperial Clan Guild Hall, he could only stay in the lowest level of the Yellow Earth Kun Palace. However, things were different now. Shen Chenfeng lived in the Central Palace, and it was the best room in the Central Palace.
The Primordial Chaos Spiritual Energy in room 1 of Zhonggong Tianzi was incomparably dense. The entire room was illuminated by azure jade embedded in the ceiling, and the seasons inside the room were like spring in an immortal realm.
Because the Imperial Clan Guild Hall had a special patrol guard, Shen Chenfeng’s personal guard did not guard the room. Shen Chenfeng was the only one in the room.
Back then, the Shen Clan’s saints were crowned saints because their ancestors had made great contributions to the battle against the ferocious beasts, and that was why the Shen Clan’s saints came into being. Therefore, the entire Shen Clan was basically like the dead Shen Daolou, advocating martial arts instead of reading.
However, Shen Chenfeng was an exception. He had been reading through the history of Hong Mongolia since he was young, and he had also studied many ancient books and records of great masters of Wen Zong. At this moment, Shen Chenfeng was reading in his room. He was also reading a famous book on military arts in Primordial world-“The King’s Law is Strange, Strange and Correct Complementary”.
As Shen Chenfeng looked at the book, he recalled how Jiang Feng had cleverly arranged the entire process of annihilating the Qin and Qi Clans and killing Shen Daolou.
The more he analyzed Shen Chenfeng, the more shocked he became, because he discovered that every game Jiang Feng laid down was not only intertwined, but also accurately predicted the next choice they would make.
Whether it was Sima Xin, Ming Ming Ming, Qin Wudi, or Qi Shengxiong.
They would eventually perish, only half because of Jiang Feng’s plan, and the other half because of their personalities.
Personality is something that varies from person to person. People with different personalities often make different choices on the same matter. For example, if Sima Xin hadn’t brought Jiang Feng to stop Qin Wudi from seeing Qi Shengxiong, then Qin Jiye’s death wouldn’t have been framed by Jiang Feng, and Sima Xin wouldn’t have been forced to kill Qin Wudi. If it weren’t for these things, nothing would have happened after that.
Unfortunately, Sima Xin’s previous personality was like that. He always thought that he could handle everything well.
Although Sima Xin was a subordinate of the Qi Clan, he was already a 367 King Realm expert at a young age, and he was also a high-ranking constable in the Imperial City. Therefore, Jiang Feng predicted that Sima Xin was an arrogant person. It was precisely because of Sima Xin’s arrogance that so many consequences were brought about in the end.
Shen Chenfeng sighed and shook his head. He muttered to himself, “Fortunately, his cultivation is only at the Middle Thousand Realm. If such a person’s cultivation surpasses the Emperor’s to become a Saint, then what kind of changes will the entire Primordial world be caused by him?”
When Shen Chenfeng thought of this, he immediately shook his head. He couldn’t help but mutter to himself, “Such a person should either not be enemies or should be strangled before he grows up. However, when his wings are full in the future, it will be a really troublesome role.”
“Who’s outside? Since they’re all here, it’s better for Tianhan to enter the room.”
Shen Chenfeng suddenly closed the scroll in his hand and waved his right hand.
The door of the Heavenly Number One room slid open to both sides. Outside the door stood the woman in black and the two women in green.
As the woman in black walked into the room, she took off her cloak and said, “Emperor Xuanyuan of Dongzhou State greets Holy Lord Shen here.”
Although Shen Chenfeng was currently the patriarch of the Shen Clan’s Saint Clan, he was not on the Titled Saint Rankings. Therefore, Emperor Xuanyuan only addressed him as “Saint Lord Shen”, not “Saint Venerable Shen” like others addressed the deceased Shen Daolou.
However, generally speaking, even if strangers saw Shen Chenfeng, they would definitely address him as “Shen Shengzun”. This is like when we meet a certain deputy director, it is impossible for us to call him “a certain deputy director” even if we talk about some human sophistication. Instead, we should call him “a certain deputy director”.
With Shen Chenfeng’s personality, it was naturally impossible for him to have any grudges towards the title of Emperor Xuanyuan Ji. However, with Shen Chenfeng’s intelligence, he could naturally tell from the title that Emperor Xuanyuan Ji’s intentions were not good, and that she had her own identity.
Shen Chenfeng smiled faintly. He took out a teacup from the tea tray on the long table in front of him and then picked up the teapot to pour himself a cup of tea.
Shen Chenfeng picked up his teacup and said to himself, “Dongzhou and Xizhou are very far away. Miss Xuanyuan is not at ease in Dongzhou. Why are you here when you have nothing else to do?”
After Shen Chenfeng finished speaking, he directly drank all the tea in the cup. He put down the cup and directly picked up the scroll on the table and began to flip through it.
According to normal etiquette, Xuanyuan Diji was a guest. Even if Shen Chenfeng poured tea, he should first pour her a cup.
Now, it was clear that Shen Chenfeng did not like to see Xuanyuan Diji.
Xuanyuan Diji chuckled. Her gaze swept across a wooden chair in the room. The wooden chair immediately flew over and landed steadily behind Xuanyuan Diji.
Xuanyuan Diji sat elegantly on the chair. She looked at Shen Chenfeng and smiled. “I came to West Continent late at night to disturb Saint Shen. I want to talk to Saint Shen about business, but I don’t know if Saint Shen is interested.”
“Interested?” Shen Chenfeng looked at Xuanyuan Diji and smiled, “No.”
Shen Chenfeng glanced at Xuanyuan Diji before saying that he was “not interested”. This would undoubtedly give people the illusion that Shen Chenfeng was saying that he was not interested in Xuanyuan Diji.
In this way, Xuanyuan Diji’s late-night visit was a bit like a brothel girl.
How could Xuanyuan Diji possibly endure such humiliation from Shen Chenfeng?
‘”Xuanyuan Diji killed the eldest young master of the Shen Clan, and Shen Daolou finally managed to capture Xuanyuan Dibing. But Shen Daolou released Xuanyuan Dibing the moment he died, which made me suspect how Shen Daolou died.” She sneered and said, “Shen Daolou killed the eldest young master of the Shen Clan, and Shen Daolou finally managed to capture Xuanyuan Dibing.”
Before I came to see Holy Lord Shen, I went to investigate the cause of Shen Daolou’s death. On the surface, Shen Daolou died because of the Qin Family’s Qin Wushang self-detonating Origin Sacred Pill, causing him to be seriously injured. But actually … ”
A jade slip flew out of her sleeve.
The jade slip blossomed with a jade-green light in midair. In the middle of the light, the scene of Shen Chenfeng holding Shen Daolou and crying loudly appeared.
However, the angle of the scene came from the right side behind Shen Chenfeng. From that angle, one could clearly see Shen Chenfeng holding Shen Daolou and crying while secretly stabbing nine Ice Soul Exterminating Needles into Shen Daolou’s body.
Shen Chenfeng’s expression changed drastically after seeing this scene, but he quickly calmed down.
Shen Chenfeng leaned his entire body back and leaned against the back of the chair behind him. “If I’m not mistaken, this should be the ‘Soul Snatching Secret Technique’, right?” How could this Soul Snatching Secret Technique be combined with the Soul Confusion Technique? It was possible to fake the image of a person’s soul. “This can’t be considered evidence in the Four Continents of Primordial world, so Miss Xuanyuan asked me to look at this. What’s the point?”
Xuanyuan Diji chuckled. She shook her head and said, “Originally, this sovereign thought that a son of a common saint would definitely be a shocking and gorgeous figure to sit in the position of saint chief. I didn’t expect that to be the case.”
Do you think this sovereign came here tonight to threaten you with this’soul snatching ‘scene? “What a joke. Don’t you see that I’m telling you why we’re cooperating?”
