6 min read1,393 words

Song Qinzhong Zhao Huan and Ming Guangzong Zhu Changluo did not lower their voices when they spoke; this was due to their status. Have you ever seen an emperor speak in a soft, gentle voice?

Even if they were昏君 (corrupt rulers) or puppet emperors, their every word and action carried a hint of supreme authority, which was a result of their environment.

A single word could decide life and death, a single sentence could determine wealth and nobility. As long as one wasn't a pig, they would naturally carry a bit of dominance.

The two emperors' words were naturally heard by the people around them.

One by one, they were frightened and retreated, their gazes instantly changing as they looked at the group of emperors.

"What's wrong with you? You just saw a few emperors, and you're scared like this. Just now, I had a pleasant conversation with Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji." A middle-aged man in his thirties looked at the crowd retreating around him and said with a hint of pride.

This group of fools was scared like this just by seeing a group of emperors. At the time, I had a conversation with Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, for three sentences. Although I was drenched in sweat, I wasn't scared away.

"Who... who are you talking to?"

"Me... me?"

"Yes, you!"

"What... what is it?"

"You're blocking my view."

"I... I'll move right away."

Such a short and concise conversation. The middle-aged man repeatedly recalled his conversation with Emperor Xuanzong of Tang, Li Longji, each sentence filled with profound meaning. I am someone who has spoken with an emperor, he thought, looking down on the people around him.

"Damn! With your stupid appearance, the emperor would be happy to talk to you? He would probably kill your whole family." A young swordsman beside him suddenly got angry. Who can't brag?

"See that pale-faced emperor? That's Song Qinzhong Zhao Huan. I heard he's a family-destroying maniac. When he gets excited, he likes to destroy families. After the auction, he destroyed families for three days and three nights, not sparing even the retired emperor or the prime minister. He wouldn't sleep until he finished."

"That's not the most impressive. See that emperor in the light armor? That's Ming Guangzong Zhu Changluo. He's so fierce, he likes to execute people at the Meridian Gate, chopping for three days and three nights without a break."

"Don't think that's impressive. See that emperor with his nose in the air? That's the most impressive emperor, Song Taizong Zhao Guangyi. He often led a million troops to the border to fight the Liao army. After each battle, he would return alone on a donkey."

...

The young swordsman spoke eloquently, becoming more and more exaggerated. The middle-aged man trembled slightly. What a group of flamboyant emperors. But, recalling historical accounts, they weren't that impressive!

"You're stupid! They're not from our world."

"Ming Guangzong only ruled for a month, but he's fine now, with a rosy complexion."

"Who doesn't know Song Qinzhong Zhao Huan? A weak emperor, yet he dared to destroy the family of the retired emperor, Song Huizong Zhao Ji."

"These emperors are probably all corrupt. I wonder how much virtue I would gain if I killed them?" The middle-aged man whispered, his face showing a hint of excitement.

Instantly, the crowd, who had been listening to the young swordsman's boasting, stared at the middle-aged man, as if trying to imprint him in their minds.

First, let's not talk about whether emperors are easy to kill.

Throughout history, the number of emperors is countless, but the number of emperors truly assassinated is less than the number of fingers on both hands. If we don't count the unofficial histories, it's probably less than the number of fingers on one hand.

In a low-martial world, the emperor is the "strongest" person in the world.

Of course, there are no accidents. If this person luckily kills the emperor, he will immediately become the most wanted person in the world.

Whether an emperor is corrupt or wise, as long as they are on the throne, they at least maintain a relative balance in the world. Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong, was an absolute corrupt ruler, but before his death, the world at least appeared peaceful.

If someone kills him, most people would applaud, and the person who kills him would gain corresponding virtue.

However, because of Liu Hong's death, the world falls into chaos, and the person who assassinated him would have to bear part of the karma.

This part of the karma is a terrifying burden. Killing the assassin would definitely make one instantly rich.

Emperor Chongzhen and the others smiled disdainfully. Assassinating an emperor is a fantasy unless you can disregard the entire army. Otherwise, trying to break into the palace to assassinate the emperor is pure imagination.

After a brief discussion, the emperors went their separate ways to select the treasures they had chosen. After all, none of them had brought peace and prosperity to the world, so they had no virtue and couldn't get a discount.

But they couldn't come here for nothing. They found that many items here, especially the secret manuals, were much cheaper than at the auction, so they planned to buy one.

On the other side.

"Master Uncle, look at that bamboo helicopter, how amazing. With your great reputation, shouldn't you buy one?" Yue Buqun's eyes were almost popping out. A small item that, when worn on the head, could allow free flight.

Free flight, such a beautiful dream, is now right in front of him, and it only costs 800 value points.

If Master Uncle buys it, wouldn't I have a chance to fly freely in the blue sky?

"Cough... Buqun, your Master Uncle is old and only has a little money left for the coffin. What do you think?" Feng Qingyang coughed lightly, his meaning clear: you should buy it and offer it to me as a sign of respect.

Yue Buqun's face twitched. This Master Uncle Feng is also a miser.

"Master Uncle, you still have money for the coffin, but I have nothing left, only this miserable life." Yue Buqun said helplessly. Last time, he scraped together 600 value points to buy the top martial art, the Lesser Unparalleled Skill, which left him bankrupt.

"Buqun, you really have nothing left?" Feng Qingyang looked disbelieving. He knew the resources of the Huashan Sect very well and was about to search Yue Buqun's body.

"Master Uncle, I've been here twice. Do you think I still have any value points left?" Yue Buqun quickly retreated, shaking his head. Clearly, Feng Qingyang's miserly image had completely destroyed his image as a hermit sage in Yue Buqun's mind.

Feng Qingyang reluctantly turned his head. He naturally liked the bamboo helicopter, but he thought that with enough value points, he could go to other worlds where there should be experts to spar with.

"Shop owner, I want to find a sparring partner." Suddenly, a cold voice came. Feng Qingyang looked over and saw a cold and proud man in black standing in front of the shop owner, speaking coldly.

His appearance was surprisingly elegant and dignified, making countless women feel ashamed. Combined with his cold and proud demeanor, he was the dream lover in the hearts of countless young girls.

Behind him were two more people. One had a very distinctive appearance; while most people have two eyebrows, he seemed to have four. Upon closer inspection, it was his mustache, which was as neatly groomed as his eyebrows, like two additional eyebrows.

The other was in white, his white clothes as pure as snow, standing tall and straight, with a cold and stern face, giving off an aloof and transcendent aura that was unforgettable at first glance.

"These three are all experts." Feng Qingyang's face was serious, sensing danger from all three of them.
