Chapter 379: #379 - Knife Intention

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Zhu, don't worry, the Emperor will also pretend not to know."

"Why?" Zhu Caifu frowned. Chu Zhiyuan said, "This..."

Zhu Caifu looked like she was all ears.

She felt that she needed to broaden her horizons. Her martial arts were high, but she lacked too much in this area.

And no one told her about these tricks.

The intrigue involved was quite interesting.

"Then let's talk about it in detail," Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile, "Whether there are real scars or fake scars, this matter has already spread, and everyone knows that His Highness's face is ruined."

"Yes."

"At this time, if you say that His Highness is not disfigured and has been cured, do you think everyone will believe it?"

"It doesn't matter if they don't believe it, as long as you show your face in the crowd, they will see it with their own eyes."

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Zhu, you are thinking too simply. Showing your face in the crowd is too deliberate, and everyone will not believe it even more."

Zhu Caifu frowned: "They saw no scars with their own eyes, and they still don't believe it?"

"Don't forget, there is such a thing as disguise."

"...Then it can't be explained!" Zhu Caifu was stunned, revealing a helpless look.

This Grandmaster of hers can subdue people with force, but she can't change everyone's mind.

She can't force them to believe it, can she?

Chu Zhiyuan said: "It doesn't matter if the Emperor knows that the scars are gone. In fact, he can guess that this is a self-directed and self-acted play, but through this incident, he at least knows that His Highness's temperament is strong... This suicide was fake, but what about the next time? If someone really dies, the marriage between the two dynasties will become a problem instead."

"Yes, that's true," Zhu Caifu nodded in agreement.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Once I submit my memorial of guilt, the Emperor will go along with the flow. As long as he can save face, then we can part ways and live our own lives peacefully."

"Then... there's no problem?"

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "I guess the Emperor will soon approve my memorial of guilt, also because he is afraid of complications."

"Fortunately, fortunately, I really can't stand another toss," Zhu Caifu said.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "As long as we cooperate on both sides, we won't cause any big waves."

"Okay, then I'll go," Zhu Caifu nodded.

She disappeared in a flash.

Chu Zhiyuan looked in the direction of Da Zhen.

There is no problem on Da Jing's side, but Da Zhen's side may not be so smooth. It is best to cut the Gordian knot quickly, handle this matter well, and prevent Wentian Cliff from causing any more trouble.

He now gradually understood some of the routines and intentions of Wentian Cliff.

The more he didn't want to marry the Eighteenth Princess, the more they insisted on marrying the Eighteenth Princess to him.

This is just his speculation, but Wentian Cliff may not be able to do it. What he can think of, Wentian Cliff should also be able to think of.

His gaze once again turned to the place where Zhu Caifu had stood earlier.

Zhu Caifu is a very good breakthrough point, the best candidate to understand the inside story of Wentian Cliff.

But now is not the time.

To inquire about the situation of Wentian Cliff, you can't ask directly, but through the bits and pieces revealed during the time you spend together. Mingyue Tower

Li Hongzhao leaned by the window, looking at the noisy crowd downstairs through the window. Still wearing a red palace dress, with a lazy expression, her graceful figure stretched out.

When Chu Zhiyuan appeared in front of her, her face was as usual, and she couldn't see the anger she had shown yesterday.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, "Has the knife arrived?"

Li Hongzhao lazily threw the long knife on the table to him.

Chu Zhiyuan took it, and gently pulled it out, and immediately frowned.

Originally, he thought that once this knife was unsheathed, the intent of the knife would be released, and he would have to resist with difficulty.

But the truth is, there is no intent of the knife at all.

What kind of Grandmaster's knife is this? There is no intent of the knife condensed at all. His face darkened.

The air seemed to freeze suddenly.

Li Hongzhao coughed lightly, breaking the solidification: "What's wrong, is something wrong?"

Chu Zhiyuan turned his head and glared at her.

Li Hongzhao frowned: "I have already confirmed this knife, there is absolutely no problem, it is a knife used by a Grandmaster of the Golden Saber Sect."

Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "Most of the Grandmasters of the Golden Saber Sect have abandoned their sabers, right?"

"That's the case now, but the owner of this knife is a saber maniac, and he still practices the saber even when he reaches the Grandmaster level."

Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "It seems that the saber technique of the Golden Saber Sect has no follow-up after reaching the Grandmaster Realm."

"Then I don't know."

"You know," Chu Zhiyuan snorted, "This knife..." He stopped abruptly.

Only two-thirds of the remaining blade was completely unsheathed, causing his face to change slightly. Li Hongzhao had been staring at his face. Seeing him go from sneering disdain to solemn, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed that this knife should be able to fool him.

The saber technique of the Golden Saber Sect is indeed unique, but when it comes to the Grandmaster, it depends on one's own cultivation.

Saber technique is just a martial skill, and the Grandmaster is a realm, the two should not be confused.

When you reach the Grandmaster, what you pursue is no longer martial skills, but focusing on improving your realm.

There are also realm differences between Grandmasters. Martial skills are too useless for Grandmasters. Even if you still practice the saber when you reach the Grandmaster, it is difficult to achieve anything.

It is the same for Grandmasters of any sect.

So the Grandmaster's saber is actually nothing special, no different from the Grandmaster's saber. The saber in front of him is like this.

Chu Zhiyuan slowly returned the sword to its sheath, his face solemn, faintly showing paleness, and his head was splitting.

This saber is very ordinary, and the owner of the saber did not condense the intent of the saber on the saber. But at the broken part of the saber, there is a strange intent of the saber.

This intent of the saber is contained in the broken part of the saber without being released.

If he didn't have the intent of the saber himself, he might not be able to discover it, and he wouldn't be hurt by it. This intent of the saber is like a hunter, specifically targeting prey with the intent of the saber.

The intent of the saber entered his body, as if a cone was stabbing his head, again and again, in exchange for bursts of severe pain.

He tried his best to run the Tianyuan Technique, and a steady stream of nectar fell, dispelling the pain and preventing himself from fainting.

This intent of the saber is completely different from the intent of the silver-sheathed long saber.

The intent of the silver-sheathed long saber is fierce and domineering, and you can feel it from a distance.

The intent of the saber at the broken blade is gentle and hidden. Once you notice it, you will be caught off guard.

"Yo," Li Hongzhao asked with a smile, "Why does your face look so ugly? Is there something wrong with this knife?"

Chu Zhiyuan closed his eyes. When he opened them after a while, his face was much better.

He squinted at Li Hongzhao: "What kind of knife is this? Are you trying to fool me?"

"This is really a Grandmaster's knife!" Li Hongzhao said unconvinced, "A Grandmaster's knife from the Golden Saber Sect!"

Chu Zhiyuan snorted: "The saber was cut off, that Grandmaster didn't die, did he?"

"That Grandmaster is no longer here now. He wasn't killed, he died of old age."

Chu Zhiyuan said: "The saber is broken, and the person is still alive. This is not someone who loves the saber to the point of obsession."

"People are in the saber is in, the saber is dead the people are dead, this is just talk," Li Hongzhao snorted.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "You are deliberately trying to fool me this time."

Li Hongzhao sneered: "Are you going to go back on your word?"

Chu Zhiyuan frowned and looked at her.

Li Hongzhao snorted: "If you want to go back on your word, then we should have less contact in the future."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "It seems like I'm begging to have contact. Okay, from now on, we will never see each other again."

She is still counting on him to cultivate her Phoenix Cry Nine Heavens Technique. How dare she not see him?"... I'll look for it again, but I can't guarantee I'll be able to find it."

"Look for it again. If you really find it, there will be a great reward."

"What reward?"

"If you come across your secret agents, spare their lives."

Li Hongzhao sneered: "Farewell!"

After she finished speaking, she got up and left, like a ball of fire floating away in the crowd.
