My Wife Is A General Who Killed Tens Of Thousands On The Battlefield-Chapter 238 - Causing Trouble
Chapter 238: Causing Trouble
In the quiet room, Su Wen looked at his Emotional Value.
Host: Su Wen
Emotional Value: 4.5 million points
Level: 38
Cultivation: 1st Grade Heaven Rank
Cultivation Technique: Heaven & Earth Great Solar Sutra
Body Tempering Cultivation Technique: Vermillion Bird Glazed Body
Battle Technique: Jadebreak Fist (LV9) Layered Wave Saber (LV9) Stellar Transposition (LV5) Great Solar Supreme Policy (LV5) Roaming Dragon Wind Sword (LV5)
Bloodline: Vermilion Bird
Special Skill: Embodiment of the Vermillion Bird (Completion Rate: 0.1%) (Currently able to transform into a young Vermillion Bird, time limit: 3 seconds)
This time, through the newspapers and the classic novel plot he wrote, he gained a lot of Emotional Value.
This time, Su Wen also did not plan to upgrade the Great Solar Supreme Policy.
Because the upgrade of the skill… was too mf*cking expensive.
He needed a total of six million Emotional Value points!
Even in Su Wen’s current situation, it was far from enough.
Thus, he turned his attention to the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword!
In order to learn the Paragon Rank cultivation technique, he planned to upgrade the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword again.
[Ding-dong. The host has spent 400,000 Emotional Value points to upgrade the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword to Lv6.]
[Ding-dong. The host has spent 1.1 million Emotional Value points to upgrade the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword to Lv7.]
After two consecutive upgrades, Su Wen felt that his Sword Dao comprehension had greatly increased!
However, when he wanted to learn that Paragon Rank sword move, the outcome was still the same.
[Ding-dong. The host’s comprehension of Sword Dao is insufficient and cannot learn…]
He looked at the remaining Emotional Value.
Su Wen gritted his teeth and decided!
[Ding-dong. The host has spent 2.4 million Emotional Value points to upgrade the Roaming Dragon Wind Sword to Lv8.]
It was useless, it was still useless!
‘Does it have to be a maxed out Heaven Rank sword technique before the prerequisites are met?!’
Su Wen couldn’t help but complain in his heart.
However, in his heart, he undoubtedly yearned even more for the Paragon Rank sword move now.
However, all he could see now was that the Emotional Value was being spent faster and in increasing amounts.
To upgrade the Dragon Returning Wind Sword to Lv9, it actually required 7 million Emotional Value…
With about 600,000 Emotional Value left, Su Wen thought for a moment and decided to exchange for a Time Freeze Card!
Breaking through to the Heaven Rank did not mean that one’s cultivation would stop. On the contrary, it should be a period of rapid growth after breaking through the barrier.
At this moment, Su Wen needed time the most.
A Time Freeze Card could save Su Wen a lot of time in reality.
Su Wen entered the cultivation space again and started another year of frenzied cultivation.
When he returned to reality, Su Wen’s lips curled into a smile.
He was even stronger now.
The cherry on top of all this was that with the large amount of Emotional Value entering his account, Su Wen leveled up twice in a row.
As his level increased, the Emotional Value he needed to level up each time increased.
Obviously, the chances of drawing the lottery also became harder and harder to come by.
[Ding-dong. The host has drawn an Earth Rank movement technique…]
“Heh, trash!”
There was no need to look at the name. This kind of thing was completely useless to Su Wen.
[Ding-dong. The host has drawn a bottle of Abundant Bosom Pills!]
“Eh?”
Su Wen raised his eyebrows when he saw this.
Good stuff, he wouldn’t even exchange it for a divine artifact!
His Emotional Value… was still not enough for him to use…
In the extreme north of the continent, in the area of nothingness…
A figure slowly walked out of the area.
If Su Wen saw this person, he would definitely be shocked.
It was the young monk, Zhizhen!
At this moment, the young monk was clad in a black monk robe.
He stepped into the air and walked out of the void.
He walked step by step into the wilderness.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, clearly in a good mood.
“Yes… I’m finally back.” The little monk smiled, still very innocent. “Hehe, I want to eat vermicelli! Now that Master is dead, I can add meat!”
He gently floated up and shot towards Great Zhou!
On his neck hung a crystal clear skull, bobbing with his flight movements.
Meanwhile, Yan Ze had already led his army to the border.
They did not attack rashly. Instead, they began to train and familiarize themselves with the terrain.
As a general, he had to understand these things.
Yan Luoying also reestablished her camp.
After the effect of the Army Formation was removed, the loyalty effect of the Great Zhou army would also dissipate over time.
Perhaps they would still respect Yan Luoying in their hearts, but it would be impossible for him to still listen to her every order.
This was inevitable.
Yan Luoying could not bring them away, so she could only abandon them.
However, for Yan Luoying, it was not difficult to train another team.
Everything was proceeding smoothly.
After a period of time in the capital, Xiang Feiyan announced a piece of news!
“I’m pregnant!” That’s right, Xiang Feiyan wanted to give her and Su Wen’s child an identity.
Therefore, it was necessary to establish that the child had the royal bloodline.
Xiang Feiyan directly announced this news in court.
The moment he said that, everyone looked at Su Wen who was being distracted.
“Mine…” Su Wen waved his hand and smiled.
The two of them had yet to marry, but they had children. Overall, this was a scandal!
But these two, one Emperor and one King…
Who would dare to gossip?
The description in the newspaper was even more interesting.
In her dreams one night, Emperor Chu flew up to the skies like a swallow. She witnessed a golden phoenix soaring, a fiery dragon dancing, and a huge sun entering her embrace. After she woke up, she discovered that she was pregnant.
This was also Su Wen’s doing.
He was already starting to pave the way for his child.
After all, this move was too common in China’s history.
White Tiger, Black Tortoise, Azure Dragon, and Golden Qilin were all regulars that were drilled into them.
Regardless of whether it was true or not, there were people who were willing to believe it.
Su Wen deliberately concealed his presence in this entire affair, however.
Heaven imparted the conception!
It could be said that once this news was released, it immediately caused the capital of Great Chu to seethe!
Countless people began to discuss.
However, most people were excited. Of course, Su Wen had become a figure that could not be avoided.
After all, even the commoners knew about Su Wen and Xiang Feiyan’s relationship.
But no matter what, once the newspaper said it, many people chose to believe it…
Humans were just so strange. The information obviously looked untrustworthy, but once an official channel spoke out, they would subconsciously choose to believe in the authority instead of their own logic.
At the Prince’s residence.
Xiang Sheng held the newspaper in his trembling hand!
“Ah! Liar! Big liar!”
He tore the newspaper into shreds in anger!
He did not believe the bullsh*t that this conception was granted by the Heavens. Most likely, Xiang Feiyan was pregnant with Su Wen’s child.
“Son of a b*tch, you told me that you wouldn’t have children with my mother! And now you’ve gone and done it!”
“Prepare the carriage! I want to settle scores with him!”
Xiang Sheng roared.
The eunuch beside him whispered, “Your Highness, if you want to go out, you have to report to His Majesty first!”
“I said I’m leaving!” Xiang Sheng looked fiercely at the eunuch and gritted his teeth. “I’m going to settle scores with that big liar!”
The eunuch fell to his knees and wailed, “Your Highness, don’t make things difficult for us!”
Xiang Sheng’s violent mood rose, and he started punching and kicking the eunuch.
“Enter the palace! Then I want to enter the palace!”
Xiang Sheng roared out.
Naturally, there was no need to report this.
The eunuch ignored his injuries and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
He got up and ordered a carriage to bring him into the palace.
Xiang Sheng entered the palace and arrived outside Xiang Feiyan’s chambers.
Just as he arrived outside the palace, he was stopped by the guards.
The female guard commander whispered to Xiang Sheng, “Your Highness wants to see Her Majesty? Please wait a moment.”
“Why?” Xiang Sheng asked in confusion.
Just as he finished speaking, he heard a faint scream from Xiang Feiyan.
“Who’s inside?” Xiang Sheng questioned angrily.
“The Nanli King.”
The commander answered truthfully, “So please wait a moment, Your Highness.”
Xiang Sheng’s face turned ashen!
He closed his eyes and waited silently!
About an hour later, a palace maid came out and said in a low voice, “Your Highness, Her Majesty said to let you in.”
Only then did Xiang Sheng enter.
After entering, he saw the two of them lying on the dragon couch.
Xiang Sheng looked at Su Wen who was sorting out his clothes and gritted his teeth. “Why did Master lie to me?”
Su Wen was stunned and smiled. “What did I lie to you about?”
Xiang Sheng questioned angrily, “You clearly said that you won’t have a child with my mother!”
Su Wen smiled. “I’m not lying to you. That’s the child the heavens gave your mother. It has nothing to do with me. Actually, I’m also very angry that I was made a cuckold by the heavens!”
Xiang Sheng sneered. “Do you think I’m a fool?”
At this moment, Xiang Feiyan interjected, “Shut up!”
She looked at Xiang Sheng and said, “This has nothing to do with you. You just have to study well and practice martial arts diligently every day. You have to be filial to me, your master, and your sibling. You just have to be a good elder brother!”
Looking at Xiang Feiyan’s cold reprimand, Xiang Sheng felt miserable!
How would Xiang Feiyan know what he was thinking?
After witnessing the battle for the throne, Su Wen’s battle prowess was akin to that of a god.
In addition, Su Wen assisted Xiang Feiyan to ascend to the throne step by step.
This caused Xiang Sheng to be extremely afraid of Su Wen.
He did not even dare to imagine if he could survive under Su Wen if he was schemed against one day.
Once Xiang Feiyan and Su Wen had children…
He knew that Su Wen would definitely think of a way to promote his child to the throne!
Hence, he was under great pressure!
Especially now that his relationship with Xiang Feiyan was cracking apart.
He simply had no idea what he should do.
Hearing Xiang Feiyan’s reprimand, his inner heart was thrown into even more turmoil!
Although what Xiang Feiyan said was his best choice, he did not think so.
“Hehe, Empress, then I’ll take my leave!”
In an instant, Xiang Sheng felt a little disheartened.
He thought of Wei Song, as well as the parting words Wei Song had left him in the prison.
Compared to Xiang Feiyan, the image of Wei Song saying his last words was even greater in his heart.
“Hehe! In the end, my surname is not Xiang!” Xiang Sheng said coldly and turned to leave!
Xiang Feiyan did not stop him.
However, a cold glint flashed across her eyes.
These words pierced deeply into her heart.
After he left, she leaned into Su Wen’s embrace.
In a soft voice, she said, “You’re the best. To outsiders, you told them that the child was bestowed by the heavens. This way, they won’t have such thoughts like Xiang Sheng. It’s just that it’s been hard on you.”
Su Wen narrowed his eyes.
Did this woman mean that he should not address the child as his own child, and that the child could not address him as Father?
That’s right. Xiang Feiyan, who had been agitated by Xiang Sheng, had already started to think about how to prevent such a situation from happening to her and Su Wen’s child.
Su Wen smiled and said, “There’s nothing to feel wronged about. As long as you understand, it’s all good.”
He was not in a hurry, however.
There was plenty of time for himself.
If he were to argue with Xiang Feiyan now, it would only bring forward the conflict between them. There was no need for that.
At this moment, in the Prime Minister’s residence.
Zhang Yong and his son, Zhang Shunzhi, sat opposite each other.
Zhang Shunzhi held the newspaper and praised, “This Nanli King is really impressive. Once this method is used, I’m afraid Xiang Sheng won’t feel good. This child will grow up with the expectations of the common people, and it will even have the Nanli King as his strong support. I’m afraid Xiang Sheng’s position will be lost.”
Zhang Yong sighed faintly, “Of course. This King Nanli is not easy to deal with. His hand has already stretched towards the royal court. I’m afraid in a few years, I won’t be able to keep my position!”
Zhang Shunzhi was stunned. He asked, “Then Father means… to attack this Nanli King?”
Zhang Yong shook his head, “Attack him? He’s a Heaven Rank expert!”
In reality, this was a misunderstanding for the people of Great Chu.
After all, they knew that Su Wen was definitely a Heaven Rank expert. That was why he had been able to unleash such incredible battle prowess on the night of the competition.
However, he didn’t know that Su Wen had only broken through to the Heaven Rank recently.
Zhang Yong sighed, “Heaven Rank experts have already surpassed ordinary people. They often pursue higher breakthroughs.”
“I’m thinking whether I should be loyal to His Majesty or to the Nanli King!” Zhang Yong’s words were like a thunderclap that rang in Zhang Shunzhi’s ears.
Zhang Shunzhi looked at Zhang Yong in shock and muttered, “What does father mean?”
After all, in his opinion, the Chu Emperor was meant to be supreme.
Zhang Yong said in a deep voice, “If he and Her Majesty don’t have any children, this matter will be very easy. He will definitely have to be loyal to Your Majesty.”
“But now that the Nanli King has had a child with Her Majesty, do you think Xiang Sheng is a match for him? Moreover, he’s a Heaven Rank expert. Even Her Majesty probably has to consider his feelings and can’t casually look for other men. This way, the chances of the King’s child becoming the successor of Great Chu is extremely high!”
Zhang Yong looked at his son and asked, “Even if the Nanli King is currently in cahoots with His Majesty, do you think he won’t have any thoughts of making their Su Family the Royal Family of Great Chu?”
Zhang Shunzhi shook his head and said, “The royal family has an ancestor! Even the Nanli King is probably nothing in the eyes of the royal family’s ancestors.”
Zhang Yong said, “If he was just a martial artist, I would naturally think so as well. But for this Nanli King, you can tell from his methods of seizing the throne that he’s a meticulous person. He plans for everything before making a move.
Heaven Rank martial artists are powerful, but they aren’t immortal. This scheming person is also at the Heaven Rank. He might even find an opportunity to deal with the Royal Ancestors.”
At this point, he let out a long sigh. “Most importantly, Her Majesty now listens to everything he says. If my Zhang family is willing to listen to him, we might still be able to gain a foothold in the royal court. If we listen to Her Majesty, Her Majesty might not be willing to protect us. I’m afraid we will still be ostracized and be pushed away from the center of power. Are you willing to see such a scene happen?”
Zhang Shunzhi fell silent.
Only those in authority would appreciate the benefits of authority.
The feeling of having tens of thousands of people obeying him was very good.
The feeling of being respected wherever he went was also very good.
The freedom to do whatever he wanted was even better.
Zhang Yong smiled bitterly, “If Her Majesty is a brilliant person, and wanted to use this injection of talents to balance the situation in the court, it would naturally not be a problem for us to be loyal to Her Majesty. However, Her Majesty clearly likes the fact that there are no objections in the court, and she wants everyone to listen to her. Under such circumstances, it’s only a matter of time before the Nanli King will dominate the court.”
“I only hate that my Zhang Family doesn’t have a Heaven Rank expert, otherwise, we wouldn’t have to do this!” Zhang Yong sighed.
But Zhang Shunzhi said in a low voice, “Father, there’s actually another way.”
“Assassinate King Nanli!” Zhang Shunzhi said in a low voice, “As long as we kill the Nanli King, Father will still be the number one official in the court.”
Zhang Yong fell silent. “The risk is too high and the price is too high. If I want to find a Heaven Rank expert for my use, I will have to pay a huge price.”
Zhang Shunzhi smiled. “Hasn’t the Mu family always wanted someone who could support them to become a Prefectural Governor? It’s not impossible for their Mu family’s Heaven Rank expert to assassinate Nanli King! Father, with Her Majesty’s abilities, once Nanli King dies, the government will definitely fall into Father’s hands!”
It was the dream of many ministers to rule the court.
It had to be said that Zhang Yong was tempted.
He pondered for a while, then frowned. “What you said is feasible, but in this matter, we need to think of a way to make the Nanli King leave the capital, or else it will be extremely difficult to succeed!”
“Let’s wait and see!”
Su Wen didn’t know that after a short conversation, Zhang Yong went from wanting to rely on him to wanting to assassinate him.
Right now, Su Wen was currently strolling along the streets of Great Zhou.
With nothing to do, Su Wen returned…
His goal today was clear…
Wu Qiuhan!
This was an old ‘friend’.
Wu Qiuhan’s carriage was currently rolling along the streets as well.
The capital now was very cold and cheerless.
Suddenly, a loud revving noise was heard!
A sports car quickly rushed towards Wu Qiuhan’s carriage. This model was the one used by Su Wen when he was competing for wealth, but after that, he rarely drove it. Although it was very flashy, it was still not as comfortable as Zhao Jin’s carriage.
Bang!
Extreme speed meant an extreme collision.
In an instant, the carriage and sports car shattered when they came into contact!
“Yo! Old Wu, is it exciting enough?”
Wu Qiuhan, who was flying in the air, heard Su Wen’s shout to him!
Fortunately, the coachman had some skills. He hugged Wu Qiuhan and protected him.
However, just as the two of them landed on the ground…
Su Wen had already rushed over.
He knocked down the guard with a single punch!
Then, he grabbed Wu Qiuhan and started beating him up.
“This is for raiding my house!”
“This is for impeaching me!”
“This is for you f**king always working for others!”
Su Wen’s control over his strength was just right. It caused Wu Qiuhan pain, but it was not fatal.
“Puu!” Wu Qiuhan spat out a mouthful of blood!
Immediately after, Su Wen ran away…
Su Wen did not kill him in the end.
The main reason was that there was no need to do so. For an ordinary civil official, the Zhou Emperor would not feel anything upon losing him.
He just had to beat him up to create trouble.
In addition, it could also be considered as revenge against Wu Qiuhan. After all, he was a political enemy.
“Blargh!” Left by the roadside, Wu Qiuhan spat out another mouthful of blood!
In the palace, Emperor Zhou had also noticed that a Heaven Rank expert had attacked.
Without thinking, he knew that it was Su Wen.
He couldn’t be bothered to send people over… Su Wen would run anyway! He couldn’t catch him.
But… he never expected what would happen next.
Su Wen discovered that no Heaven Rank experts had come over after his beating… and thus was not in a hurry to leave.
Wasn’t he looking down on Young Master Su by not sending anyone here?
Young Master Su began to wander around to find the other court officials!
“Oh, Lord Zhao, long time no see. Eat my fist!”
“Elder Fei, although we know each other, it’s not good to not beat you up. Actually, I’ve wanted to give you two punches for a long time.”
“What’s this lord’s name again? Forget it, eat my foot!”
Seeing the red dot constantly flashing around in the city, and finally seeing Wu Qiuhan being carried into the palace…
Emperor Zhou was furious and immediately ordered his Heaven Rank experts to attack!
Unfortunately, Su Wen ran away again when he sensed the Heaven Rank experts converging on him!
