After the news of Zhou An's defeat of Gu Si spread, the atmosphere in Wu'an City became even more enthusiastic. Many people speculated that Zhou An would definitely challenge Jianyi and Wangtai.
The fact is indeed the case, Zhou An is going to challenge Wang Tai.
Zhou An didn't go right away, but retreated in the palace for another five days. Although he didn't have the most fun with Gu Si, he still had some gains and insights.
After this incident, his reputation rose again, and his luck gathered again. It was the breath of new life, which relieved his gradually decaying body to a certain extent.
For the past few days, he has also been waiting for the woman named Yueli to come to the palace to challenge him, wanting to see how strong the other party is, and he will speak so loudly.
But after all, he still didn't wait, which also proved that the woman was just talking big, and she didn't even come forward to challenge his courage.
If Yueli knew that he was Zhou An that day, would he have been so frightened that he would have left on the spot.
Thinking about it, Zhou An felt that Yueli might be a little more courageous than this, at least he seemed to be very courageous, and people with a bold tone are generally not particularly timid.
Five days is not long, nor short. Zhou An walked out of the room again, washed up, and looked extraordinarily energetic.
He wanted to find Qi Fugui, but was told by Wang Mang that he had gone to the imperial city yesterday.
Zhou An said a little strangely: "Didn't you say that we would go together in two days? Why did he pass by alone?"
Wang Mang looked around and felt that Zhou An was not an outsider, so he said in a low voice: "There is news that the Holy Majesty's health seems to be suddenly ill, so he temporarily recalled all the princes and princes."
Zhou An raised his eyebrows, suddenly felt that this was not a trivial matter, if the emperor died suddenly, Da Qi would definitely be in chaos.
Daqi is a big piece of cake, and it is not so easy to get to today. Even a top cultivating sect like Wangtianzong would probably consider taking part of the cake.
Although immortals are different, countless ordinary people are the foundation of these sects of cultivating immortals.
Some people even hope that the Great Qi will become chaotic, so that they can take advantage of it, especially some middle-level sects. It is not so easy to become stronger when the environment is stable.
Wang Mang looked serious, and said: "We have to go to the imperial city early, if the situation worsens, the prince may be in danger staying in the imperial city."
"Originally, the prince was going to ask you to go with him, but he thought you were going to Jiewei Mountain, so he went first."
"Normally, the eldest prince will inherit the throne, but the second king's influence is not small, whether it's in the court or in the fairy mansion."
"As the Three Kings, the prince doesn't have much influence, and probably won't be paid special attention to, but who can say for sure about this kind of thing."
Zhou An nodded to express his understanding, and then said: "When I come back from Jiewei Mountain, I will go to the Imperial City. Since I promised to do it, I will naturally do it."
He paused and said: "Since you are in such a hurry, you can use your cloud boat to send me to Jiewei Mountain."
Although Wang Mang was a little strange, he didn't say much. Knowing that Zhou An seemed to have some reason, he usually didn't use the technique of soaring clouds, but the flying sword was very easy to play.
"Shall we start now?" He looked at Zhou An.
Zhou An nodded, and walked out the door again: "Right now, but I'll go buy two biscuits first, do you want it? I'll bring you two."
Wang Mang had a weird look on his face, but Zhou An said so, and he couldn't refuse, so he said, "Bring me two yuan too."
Zhou An has a lot of vulgarity, he doesn't look like a cultivator at all, if it is not for his strength, no matter how much others tell him, he will not believe it.
"The taste is not bad. Although these things are not as good as the daily delicacies of the palace, they still have a special flavor."
Zhou An sat on the bow and said.
Wang Mang took two sips, and felt that the taste was indeed not that bad, "It's true."
He turned around and said:
"Those monks in Jiewei Mountain are unreasonable people. Brother Zhou, you have to be careful. My cultivation level is also low. I may not be able to help you much then."
Zhou An nodded, having heard about it, and said: "Do you know why Wang Tai became a monk in the first place? Is there anything else that dissatisfies him?"
Wang Mang thought for a while and said: "You don't know this. Wang Tai was very similar to you in the early years. Both of them were talented young sword repairmen. Ranked No. 1 on the Anwu City Sword Ranking."
"It's just that the world is unpredictable. One day, he suddenly appeared on the street and yelled like crazy. Since then, there has been no progress in swordsmanship. Later, he came to Jiewei Mountain to become a monk and became a monk. Presumably, the strength will not be much improved compared to before, and maybe it will retreat instead of advancing."
"I don't think he will be the number one for a long time, but no one challenged him. Dean Gu is concentrating on teaching students, and he doesn't care about these fame and fortune."
After hearing this, Zhou An didn't think so. If Wang Tai didn't have the corresponding strength, he might have been squeezed out by others. Even if Gu Si didn't make a move, others would. It represents the collection of luck.
He doesn't know what the so-called luck is, but it is always good for cultivation. At least by using this luck, he can deduce the way of the sword more easily.
Jiewei Mountain is a very ordinary mountain, not too high. There is a county town under the mountain, surrounded by incense all the year round, and there are many monks walking in the city.
These monks who went down the mountain for alms are generally not too high.
"Do you know Lu Da? He is also a monk in Jiewei Mountain?" Zhou An asked, looking down at the county town below.
Wang Mang shook his head and said, "I'm not very familiar with it, but he is not a monk from Jiewei Mountain, but traveled from the west."
Wang Mang stopped the boat at the foot of the mountain, and said: "We can't fly up directly, otherwise it will be regarded as a provocation, and these monks may attack us directly."
Zhou An took two steps forward, and found Wang Mang stopped where he was, and asked, "Aren't you going up?"
Wang Mang showed embarrassment on his face, shook his head and said, "The group of monks in Jiewei Mountain are all weirdos, they allow mortals to go up to offer incense, but monks are not allowed to go up."
"My strength is low, and if something unexpected happens later, it will be a burden."
Zhou An is a cultivator in the transformation stage, but he is not. Once he fights with those monks, he may not be able to escape, so in
Zhou An nodded, expressing his understanding. He felt that it was a little dangerous, and said, "If there is any accident later, you can go straight away. You don't need to pay attention to me."
Hearing this, Wang Mang was inexplicably moved, and said bluntly: "Brother Zhou, you don't need to worry about any danger, I will run away."
The old boy was more courageous than he looked.
Zhou An thought, walking up the mountain, there was a stretch of stone steps engraved with incomprehensible scriptures, and one or two Buddha sculptures could be seen from time to time.
These Buddha sculptures were so lifelike that they looked like they had trapped a living person in a stone, but it made him feel somewhat disobedient.
The mountain made him feel cold!
Zhou An didn't think too much, he walked up unswervingly, he just wanted to accomplish his goal, defeat Wangtai, and become the number one swordsman in Wu'an City.
The more he walked, the more he felt his footsteps became heavier, as if he had been hung with a thousand-jin stone, and when he looked into the sky, it seemed that there was a golden Buddha's light shining down.
The Buddha's light didn't make him feel any kind of peace, but it was naked corruption, just like his sword intent.
"How could this be?" The more he thought about it, the more he realized something was wrong.
At this time, he had just walked halfway up the mountain, but saw a white figure in front of him, waving to him.
This is…
Zhou An was startled, and met Yueli here again, guessing that this woman was here to block him, knowing that he was going to challenge Wang Tai.
Things were not far from what he thought.
"Wang Fugui, why are you here!" Yue Li waved his hand proactively, with a smile on his face.
Zhou An responded with a half-smile: "Haha, I heard that there is a temple here, so I came up to burn incense."
"..." Yue Li looked at him suspiciously, "You still believe in Buddhism? No, aren't you a swordsman? How can you have other beliefs? It's not pure, and it may cause demons."
Seeing the exaggerated expression on Yue Li's face, Zhou An knew that the other party was making alarmist remarks, so he asked, "Then what are you doing here?"
There was a sly look on Yue Li's face, "Just like you, we are here to offer incense, let's go, let's go up together."
"Why, is there any inconvenience?"
Zhou An could only shake his head: "That's not true."
All the way up, Zhou An's steps became heavier and heavier, and UU Reading www.uukanshu.com also had to use the sword to possess him to continue moving forward.
Yue Li didn't seem to react at all, and his steps seemed light.
Finally, Zhou An couldn't help but asked: "Miss Yueli, don't you think it's a bit strange here? The steps are getting heavier and heavier."
Yueli was not surprised, he thought for a while and said: "Jiewei Mountain is like this, it is illuminated by Buddhism, the higher the level of cultivation, the more difficult it is to climb up."
"unless…"
Zhou An asked, "Unless what?"
Yue Li raised the corners of his eyes, floating like catkins, with a bit of gentle charm, he said with a smile: "Unless you have Wugou sword body like me."
After hearing this, Zhou An was at a loss. He had never heard of this term before, so he asked calmly, "What is that?"
"The body and mind are pure and impeccable." Yueli said softly, walking with the wind, like a bright moon standing quietly on the calm lake.
"Oh." Zhou An blinked: "So what is that?"
"..." Yueli was silent for a moment, then walked straight forward without replying.
Seeing Yueli's speed increase, Zhou An hurriedly followed, and asked again: "You haven't answered my Wugou Sword Body yet?"
Yue Li raised his head, pointed his nostrils at him, and proudly said:
"I don't communicate with stupid people, or I will be stupid too."
Her speed increased again, and the voice came: "Catch me, I'll tell you!"
Zhou An also became competitive, summoned his extraordinary strength, and ran forward in big strides, with many sword shadows appearing around him.
He was already running with all his strength, but because of the suppression of Youjie Weishan Buddhism, he was still a step behind.
A towering tower-like temple appeared in front of them, the entire sky was a faint golden color, and there were distant and heavy bells coming from the temple.
