Chapter 558 Zhu Wushi Submits to the Ming Dynasty!
As Zhu Ying finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang's face showed a hint of interest.
"A peak expert of the Divine Power Realm?"
"In that case, let's have a go at Zhu Wushi!"
Done.
Zhu Ying then brought Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao together to the Protectorate Manor.
And this moment.
Inside the Dragon Guard Manor, Zhu Wushi, the Iron-Blooded Marquis, was racking his brains in his room, trying to figure out how to deal with the Ming Empire.
Zhu Wushi stared at the map of the territory on the wall, his expression unusually conflicted.
In Zhu Wushi's view, the Ming Empire had already defeated the Jin and Song dynasties in succession, which meant that the northern and western sides of the Ming Empire were adjacent to the Ming Empire's sphere of influence.
If the Ming Empire were to launch an attack on the Ming Kingdom from both the north and the west, the Ming Kingdom would be powerless to retaliate.
Thinking about this gave Zhu Wushi a real headache.
And this time.
Shangguan Haitang, Guihai Yidao, and Duan Tianya arrived at Zhu Wushi's room at the same time.
"Divine Marquis!"
Zhu Wushi glanced at the three people and asked with a serious expression, "What brings you three to me so late?"
As Zhu Wushi finished speaking, Shangguan Haitang, Guihai Yidao, and Duan Tianya exchanged glances.
Duan Tianya spoke first to Zhu Wushi: "Divine Marquis, we have made our decision. We hope to join forces with you to assassinate this grandson of the Ming Emperor, to avenge Cheng Yu and the Ming Dynasty, and also for the sake of our country."
But after Duan Tianya finished speaking, Zhu Wushi scoffed coldly.
Then, Zhu Wushi, his face cold, said to the three people in front of him, "You are really too naive. Do you really think that even if I were to take action, I could kill this grandson of the Ming Emperor?"
"To tell you the truth, this person's realm has reached the peak of the Divine Power Realm, or even the strength of a half-step Qi Refining Realm. Even if I were to take action, with the help of the three of you, or even if we used the martial arts power of the entire Dragon Guard Manor, we still wouldn't be able to harm a single hair on this grandson of the Ming Emperor."
As soon as Zhu Wushi finished speaking, Duan Tianya, Guihai Yidao, and Shangguan Haitang's faces immediately turned panicked.
Then Duan Tianya spoke up again: "But Divine Marquis, are we just going to do nothing and wait for this grandson of the Ming Emperor to attack our Ming Kingdom?"
"Isn't the purpose of the Dragon Guard Manor to protect the Emperor? If we don't take the initiative, what if this grandson of the Ming Emperor really leads a large army to break through the capital? What should we do then?"
Faced with Duan Tianya's questioning, Zhu Wushi flew into a rage and slapped Duan Tianya across the face.
"idiot!"
Zhu Wushi shouted, "Since when did you become the one to lecture me?"
Zhu Wushi continued to curse, "Haven't I made myself clear enough? This grandson of the Ming emperor is someone no one in the world can do anything to. The demise of the Ming Dynasty is now an unstoppable event."
As Zhu Wushi finished speaking, Duan Tianya, Guihai Yidao, and Shangguan Haitang all wore expressions of utter despair.
And at this moment,
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept across the sky, accompanied by a series of hissing sounds.
At this moment, a guard from the Dragon Guard Manor also barged into Zhu Wushi's room.
The guard shouted anxiously, "Lord Divine Marquis, something terrible has happened! There's an object in the sky!"
Zhu Wushi glanced at the guard and said impatiently, "Foreign object? What is a foreign object? Explain yourself!"
The guard quickly said, "My Lord, I'm not quite sure either. This strange creature is quite large, and it looks like both a cow and a horse. It can even fly."
After the guard finished speaking, Duan Tianya, who was standing to the side, became nervous.
He quickly asked, "Could it be a pterosaur?"
Zhu Wushi glanced at this piece of Tianya again and coldly asked, "Pterosaur? What is a pterosaur?"
Without hesitation, Duan Tianya quickly explained, "Reporting to the Divine Lord, I have seen this animal in the capital of the Jin Kingdom before. According to the Ming soldiers, it seems to be a pterosaur."
"These pterosaurs can fly and are incredibly powerful. Now that a pterosaur has appeared in the sky above our Dragon Guard Manor, could it be that the grandson of the Ming Emperor has arrived?"
After Duan Tianya finished speaking, a look of fear appeared on Zhu Wushi's face.
He never expected that the grandson of the Ming emperor would start attacking his own country so quickly.
Zhu Wushi didn't hesitate and rushed out of the room.
Meanwhile, above this void.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao sat on the back of the pterosaur and said to Zhu Ying, who was flying beside them, "Xiong Ying, is this the Dragon Guard Manor?"
"Father, Emperor, that's right, this is the Dragon Guard Manor. The Dragon Guard Manor is the largest martial arts institution in the Ming Dynasty."
"Within this Dragon Guard Manor, there are countless experts, especially the Iron-Blooded Marquis Zhu Wushi, who can be considered the nation's number one fighting force."
As Zhu Ying finished speaking.
Zhu Yuanzhang said with anticipation, "Alright, in that case, let's go to the Dragon Guard Manor and meet Zhu Wushi."
Immediately,
Zhu Yuanzhang patted the pterosaur on the back, and the next second, the pterosaur swooped down into the Dragon Guard Manor.
boom!
As a gust of wind blew by
The pterosaur successfully landed in the courtyard of the Dragon Guardian Manor.
At the same time, Zhu Wushi, along with martial arts masters such as Duan Tianya, Guihai Yidao, and Shangguan Haitang, quickly surrounded them.
Everyone's face showed fear.
Just then, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao slowly jumped off the pterosaur's back.
"Who is this Zhu Wushi?"
Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly shouted a reprimand.
Immediately, everyone's eyes were focused on Zhu Wushi.
Although Zhu Wushi was the Iron-Blooded Marquis and a prince of the Ming Dynasty, he still felt a tremendous imperial majesty upon seeing Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Wushi even felt an urge to kowtow to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Fortunately, Zhu Wushi was a master at the peak of the Divine Power realm, and he forcibly used the true energy within his body to control his body.
Then, Zhu Wushi slowly walked up to Zhu Yuanzhang, swallowed hard, and asked nervously, "Who are you?"
Zhu Wushi had heard Duan Tianya, Guihai Yidao and others say that this grandson of the Ming emperor was quite young, so when he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he naturally knew that this person was not the legendary grandson of the Ming emperor.
Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Wushi in front of him and continued, "You don't even recognize me? Humph! You even have the surname Zhu?"
Faced with Zhu Yuanzhang's words, Zhu Wushi's face showed confusion and bewilderment.
He took another careful look at Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao beside him.
Then, Zhu Wushi vaguely felt that the two people in front of him were quite familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere before.
at the same time,
Zhu Wushi suddenly sensed another surge of extremely strong true energy.
In an instant,
Zhu Ying descended from the sky and suddenly appeared in front of everyone.
Duan Tianya, Guihai Yidao, and the others standing behind Zhu Wushi hurriedly exclaimed upon seeing Zhu Ying, "Divine Marquis, this person is the grandson of the Ming Emperor."
To be honest, Zhu Wushi's heart skipped a beat when he heard those words. He quickly prepared for battle.
However, Zhu Ying had no intention of fighting with Zhu Wushi. Instead, he turned to Zhu Yuanzhang and asked, "Old man, how is it? Did they recognize you?"
Zhu Yuanzhang sighed and couldn't help but laugh at himself, "Alas, these unfilial descendants don't even recognize their ancestors."
"U.A., could they all be descendants of the fourth brother?"
In response to Zhu Yuanzhang's question, Zhu Ying nodded and said with a smile, "Grandpa, you are right, they are indeed the descendants of Fourth Uncle."
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang sighed again: "No wonder, the descendants of the fourth prince are simply a bunch of fools."
At this moment, Zhu Wushi finally couldn't hold back any longer. He coldly addressed Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Ying in front of him, saying, "Who exactly are you? Why have you come to my Dragon Guard Manor?"
"What exactly do you want to do?"
Zhu Yuanzhang did not answer Zhu Wushi's questions, but slowly walked up to him and said, "Take a good look at me. Don't you really recognize me?"
Although Zhu Wushi did not know who Zhu Yuanzhang was, he still followed Zhu's orders and carefully observed Zhu Yuanzhang up close.
suddenly,
Zhu Wushi's face turned pale with shock, and he took several steps back.
It was as if I had seen a ghost.
"You? How is this possible?"
"Could it be that..."
"Are you the Hongwu Emperor?"
Zhu Wushi was a smart man after all, and as a member of the Ming imperial family, he had seen portraits of Zhu Yuanzhang since childhood. So when he looked at Zhu Yuanzhang up close, he recognized him instantly.
Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang no longer concealed his identity and said, "You are quite a clever man. That's right, I am Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
After Old Zhu revealed his identity, all the martial arts masters in the entire Dragon Guard Manor were greatly shocked.
Of course, the most surprised person was Zhu Wushi.
Although he felt that the old man in front of him did look very similar to Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, he still could not believe that this person was Zhu Yuanzhang.
After all, in Zhu Wushi's mind, Zhu Yuanzhang had been dead for over a hundred years.
How could he possibly still be alive now!
Then Zhu Wushi asked in a trembling voice, "Our ancestor Hongwu has been dead for over a hundred years, how could this be..."
Before Zhu Wushi could finish speaking, Zhu Ying, who had been silent for a long time, walked up to Zhu Wushi.
"I know you have a thousand doubts in your heart, but this person is none other than Zhu Yuanzhang."
immediately,
Zhu Ying slowly explained to Zhu Wushi, "The myriad worlds are not limited to the world you live in. Although the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty has long since passed away in this world of martial arts, Zhu Yuanzhang is still alive in another world."
At this point, Zhu Yuanzhang continued, echoing Zhu Ying's words: "Xiong Ying is right. We have come here to unify this world."
Although Zhu Ying and Zhu Yuanzhang had explained things clearly enough, Zhu Wushi still found it hard to believe.
"How is this possible? How come I didn't know that other worlds existed?"
Who exactly are you?
When Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Zhu Wushi still didn't believe him, he sighed helplessly and turned to Zhu Ying to complain, "Xiong Ying, the descendants of the fourth prince are too stupid."
"They still don't believe that I am the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty."
At this moment, Zhu Ying then spoke to Zhu Wushi, saying, "I know it's hard for you to understand, but this person is none other than Zhu Yuanzhang. In our world, the Ming Dynasty has already unified the world. He has come here with his imperial grandfather to unify your Zongwu world."
After saying that,
Zhu Ying waved his hand gently.
Suddenly, a scene of the Ming Empire unifying the world appeared before Zhu Wushi, and at the same time, the army of the Ming Empire entered the Zongwu World through the space portal and fought against the Jin and Song Kingdoms.
After Zhu Wushi finished reading it, he finally understood everything.
immediately,
Zhu Wushi hurriedly knelt down and bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying, "Zhu Wushi, a descendant of the Hongwu Emperor, pays his respects. May the Hongwu Emperor live ten thousand years."
Upon seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang's face lit up with joy, and he said with a smile, "Rise."
"Thank you, Emperor Hongwu."
After Zhu Wushi stood up, he quickly said, "Since you are the Hongwu Emperor, does that mean the Ming Empire will not attack the Ming Kingdom?"
After Zhu Wushi finished speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Ying exchanged a glance and then fell silent.
After a while.
Zhu Yuanzhang then asked in an icy tone, "If we were to attack the Ming Dynasty, what would you choose?"
Without hesitation, Zhu Wushi immediately said, "Reporting to the Hongwu Emperor, I am willing to pledge my allegiance to you!"
"Very well, since that's the case, then you should persuade the Ming emperor to also submit to us!"
Done.
Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao then rode the Wind God Winged Dragon and flew into the void. At the same time, Zhu Ying also disappeared from everyone's sight in a flash.
.........
Meanwhile, inside the Shaolin Temple.
This once-greatest martial arts sect in the Song Kingdom is now in ruins after being plundered by Lan Yu.
Only the sweeping monk stood alone at the entrance of Shaolin Temple, slowly sweeping away the fallen leaves with a broom.
After the sweeping monk finished clearing away the fallen leaves in front of the door, he silently went to the last floor of the scripture pavilion.
He said to a skeleton, "Master Bodhidharma, I have made up my mind. I will still avenge Shaolin."
As soon as the sweeping monk finished speaking...
The skeleton before him suddenly spoke, "Since you've made your decision, then follow your heart."
"The most important thing in life is to have no regrets."
After listening, the sweeping monk murmured, "Amitabha, this disciple understands."
after that,
The sweeping monk then left Shaolin Temple, carrying a broken broom, and slowly headed towards the capital of the Song Dynasty.
Obviously.
For the Sweeper Monk, he was prepared to avenge the Song Dynasty and the disciples of Shaolin Temple who had died.
……
now.
After Zhu Ying, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Biao returned to the palace in Songzhou and the capital, they did not immediately send troops to attack the Ming Dynasty, but waited for Zhu Wushi's reply.
Taking advantage of this time, Zhu Ying entered the cultivation chamber, attempting to draw upon the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty to break through his cultivation realm. (End of Chapter)
