Capital city.

After the new leader of the No-Life Sect, Ye Chen, arranged everything in the capital, he ordered the sects spies to stay quiet and await his signal to wake up.

Upon the old sect masters suggestion, Ye Chen then left the capital the next day and vowed not to return until it was confirmed safe again.bender

North City.

Peaceful Mind Studio.

Old Zhang looked at the horse carriage full of books in front of Liang Sheng Bookstore with surprise, as it had not been too long since Liang Shengs previous stock purchase. Why had Old Liang suddenly ordered so many books again?

Liang Sheng just smiled without giving a detailed explanation, Ive been bored lately. Moreover, no one knows what the future holds. Im just preparing early; the bookstore cant always be without new books.

Upon hearing this, Old Zhang slapped his forehead in sudden realization, Old Liang, your mind works quickly indeed. Its wise to stock up some supplies in such uncertain times. After all, who knows what troubles are ahead?

Having said that, Old Zhang hurried away anxiously, and Liang Sheng couldnt help but shake his head and smile as he watched him leave. He then continued directing his servants to move the books.

This time, Liang Shengs servants found their work much easier than before, as all the books were about strange tales, miscellaneous records, and unofficial histories.

Liang Sheng offered no explanations for this either. After seeing that everything was going smoothly, he lay down in a lounge chair, casually picked up an unofficial history of the Dayan dynasty, and began reading with relish.

Ever since hearing the conversation between the No-Life Sect Leader and Emperor Kaiping that night, he had some suspicions. To confirm his thoughts, he decided to search for clues in the unofficial histories.

Never underestimate the potential truth hidden in unofficial histories. Many things often defy reason yet are found within them, perfectly logical in their context.

Outside the bookstore, Old Zhang was anxiously pulling his son along to buy flour. For a short while, the scene inside and outside the study was a lively contrast between stillness and motion.

Ever since Grand General Hongzhi had escaped the assassination attempt during Emperor Kaipings heaven-worshipping ceremony, the capital city had been under curfew every night. After all, no one could predict whether the assassins would strike again. How could the capital remain unguarded?

However, after so much time had passed, Hongzhi still had not surfaced. No one knew where he was hiding or what he was doing. Perhaps he felt that the time was not right and decided to hibernate once more.

Regardless of the reason, the capital city gradually grew serene. However, the Dayan dynastys court was no longer peaceful.

The impact of the assassination attempt during the heaven-worshipping ceremony was far from simple. It was as if a certain matter had been brought into the open, and once something happens for the first time, there is bound to be a second time.

If someone could attempt to assassinate Emperor Kaiping, then what was holding back the common people, those who could no longer make a living under his oppression, from rebelling?

For a short while, the Dayan dynasty was suddenly plagued with uprisings. The government troops suppressed one rebellion after another, the speed of the changes in the situation taking everyone by surprise.

Liang Sheng couldnt help but recall an article he had read in his past life, The world has suffered from Qin for too long; it is better to die. To die with grand ambitions or to die waiting which death would benefit the country?

Perhaps, at this moment, the mindset of the common people in the Dayan dynasty was just like that. And so, although the government troops continued to suppress the rebellions, military expenses soared rapidly.

However, the Dayan dynasty had already been riddled with problems during Emperor Kaipings twenty years of indulgence, and the national treasury was empty.

For a short while, the situation in the Dayan dynasty became even more chaotic. Rebellions erupted one after another, far beyond Emperor Kaipings imagination.

Why was this happening?

How dare they do this?

In the Imperial Library, Emperor Kaiping couldnt help but smash his beloved porcelain, his anger reaching its peak.

Immediately summon Chen Ping to return and command him to quell the bandits in the southwest within three months! I want the people of the world to see what fate awaits those who dare to rebel and rise against the throne!

Chen Ping was the successor to Grand General Li Hong after his departure and the sole surviving confidant of Li Hong. He had even inherited Li Hongs position.

Some commoners even referred to him as Emperor Kaipings loyal dog. Over the past twenty years, the borders had been pacified, and every year during festive occasions, Chen Ping would continuously send exotic treasures from the border regions to the palace.

At this moment, Qin Gang couldnt help but move his lips, hesitated for a moment and decided to speak up, Your Majesty, perhaps you should first seek the opinion of the individual within the palace who is most knowledgeable about rebellions and uprisings.

What Qin Gang was referring to was naturally the No-Life Sect Old Master, after all, who could be more familiar with the rebellion than him?

At this moment, Emperor Kaiping suddenly glanced at Qin Gang with cold eyes. Even though Qin Gang was an Innate Master, he couldnt help but shudder at this moment and didnt dare to say more.

Emperor Kaiping took a deep breath and forcibly calmed himself down. Da Ban, remember this, eunuchs cannot participate in politics, remember that!

After saying that, his tone softened. After all, Qin Gang had been with him since he was young and had been loyal for all these years.

This world is ultimately the world of my Ye Family, and it cannot be thrown into chaos. What I decree is the will of heaven. Go, summon the frontier, and tell Chen Ping to immediately return to the capital.

Yes!

Liang Sheng didnt know that Emperor Kaiping had already decided to let Chen Ping return to the capital to suppress the rebellion in the Southwest. At this moment, he had read through many unofficial histories and discovered a common point among them.

The Grand Ancestor of Dayan attained his Immortal Destiny at Mount Kunwu, wielding a heavenly sword and conquering the seven great sects of the martial arts holy land, establishing the prosperous era of the Dayan Dynasty.

Although there were some differences in various unofficial histories, they were mostly the same. So, Liang Sheng couldnt help but want to go to Mount Kunwu and see for himself. Perhaps it could help clarify some doubts in his heart.

Moreover, the unofficial histories also strengthened his aspiration to cultivate. Even if he had a long lifespan, he had to possess the power of Dao protection in order to save himself.

In the era of unofficial histories, numerous calamities were recorded, such as fire falling from the sky, earth-shaking upheavals, and seawater pouring inland, all resembling doomsday scenarios.

Whats even more terrifying is that some even recorded a sword that annihilated a whole country with its cold light, which clearly showed the methods of cultivators.

Even in official histories, there are a few words that mention such records, making it clear that they are not groundless. This further strengthened Liang Shengs determination to cultivate and protect the Dao.

He needed the power to protect himself and survive!

With that in mind, Liang Sheng didnt hesitate to start making arrangements for his departure to Mount Kunwu, such as managing his mansion and bidding farewell to Old Zhang.

When he told Old Zhang that he wanted to go and see the mountains and rivers, he thought Old Zhang would try to persuade him. But to his surprise, Old Zhang just asked him to be careful.

In this life, do whatever you want to do, or otherwise youll miss the opportunity. Thats not a mistake, its just a missed chance that wont come again.

As he said this, Old Zhang seemed to be reminiscing about some memories, and for a short while, neither of them spoke.

That night, Liang Sheng and Old Zhang drank wine while talking late into the night. Early the next morning, Liang Sheng left the capital and headed for Mount Kunwu.

Not long after Liang Sheng set out to track down the clue of Dayans Grand Ancestor, Chen Ping rushed back to the capital. After receiving Emperor Kaipings decree, he immediately handed over military power and hurried to the capital.

At this time, the banditry in the Southwest was growing more and more serious, and the atmosphere in the court was extremely depressed. Fortunately, Chen Pings arrival eased their pressure.

After appointing Chen Ping as the Great General to suppress the rebellion, Emperor Kaiping personally bestowed him a sword, I will be waiting in the capital for your good news. I have already prepared the victory celebration wine for you. Dont let me down.

Your servant will do his best!

On the same day, Chen Ping took a part of the elite frontier soldiers to Jiangnan and then took over the military affairs of Jiangnan, beginning to suppress the banditry in Jiangnan.

They originally thought that Chen Ping would easily suppress the rebellion, but after half a month, the court received news of Chen Pings betrayal!

The world couldnt help but be shocked. Chen Pings slogan after his betrayal made Emperor Kaiping feel ashamed and furious.

Because Chen Pings slogan was very simple, but it had practically torn off Emperor Kaipings fig leaf and laid it bare in front of the common people.

Overthrow the tyrant and clear General Lis name!

Chen Ping, an ordinary man, how dare he do this! You all go die!!!
