Chapter 741 - 741 Beginning Breakthrough!
741 Beginning Breakthrough!
Chen Tangwen had reappeared in the world and had even become a top expert. He had also done such an earth-shattering thing and instantly became world-renowned.
The Immortal Wind Monastery he came from naturally attracted the attention of many people.
Actually, the pugilistic world was not unfamiliar with the Immortal Wind Monastery.
More than a hundred years ago, the Immortal Wind Monastery was still a world-renowned orthodox Daoist sect. The Patriarch had even cultivated to the Inner World realm and become an expert at the peak of the pugilistic world. It could definitely be considered a famous sect.
However, decades ago, the Lotus Flower Monastery, a large Buddhist sect, suddenly announced a piece of shocking news to the world.
The Patriarch of the Immortal Wind Monastery secretly used the blood of children’s hearts to cultivate an evil technique. He even took out a bottle of blood as evidence. Then, under the guise of enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens, they encircled the Immortal Wind Monastery.
In the end, the Immortal Wind Monastery was completely destroyed. The countless books in the temple were all transported back to their sect by the Lotus Flower Monastery and sealed in the Scripture Depository.
At that time, there were also rumors that the accusations made by the Lotus Flower Monastery against the Immortal Wind Monastery were purely false. The Patriarch of the Immortal Wind Monastery had never cultivated any evil techniques.
The true goal of the Lotus Flower Monastery was actually to use this as an excuse to destroy the Immortal Wind Monastery so that they could take the opportunity to s.n.a.t.c.h the martial techniques pa.s.sed down by the temple. In the end, they could change it into the Buddhist martial techniques pa.s.sed down in the Lotus Flower Monastery.
It was from that time that the Immortal Wind Monastery disappeared from the Pugilistic World.
As time pa.s.sed, not many people mentioned it.
It was only a few years ago when the Lotus Flower Monastery hunted after Monk Jue Xin all over the world and called him a remnant of the Immortal Wind Monastery that the name of this sect returned to the public eye.
But that was all. It did not cause much waves in the Pugilistic World. In fact, not many people paid attention to the so-called remnants of the Immortal Wind Monastery.
But it was different now.
The barbarians from the four northern states had been attacking cities and plundering land in the past ten years. Great Xia, Great Chen, and Great Yan had already been destroyed by the barbarians. Only Great Zhao was left in the Central Plains.
If the Great Zhao was also destroyed by the barbarians, then the entire Central Plains would be completely invaded by these barbarians, and the people here would definitely be reduced to inferior citizens.
Not many people could accept such an outcome.
However, to most people, their individual strength was unable to compete with an army at all. They could only watch helplessly as the barbarians headed south and even surrounded the capital of Great Zhao.
Under such circ.u.mstances, Chen Tangwen suddenly appeared and even rushed into the barbarian army, killing the barbarian general who led the troops. He forced the barbarians to retreat and saved the Linjing City that was about to fall.
All of this matched the definition of a hero in the hearts of countless people. Naturally, it caused a huge commotion and shook the world.
It was also strange that such a person came from the Immortal Wind Monastery that had long been destroyed by the Lotus Flower Monastery.
What was the situation with the Immortal Wind Monastery? Why did it suddenly appear again? Was it really destroyed by the Lotus Flower Monastery decades ago? What was the truth back then?
These questions became the most discussed topic in the world.
While the news about Chen Tangwen and the Immortal Wind Monastery spread throughout the world, Chen Tangwen had already arrived at the Linjing Imperial Palace that he had not seen for more than ten years.
It was the current Emperor of Great Zhao who had summoned him.
Walking in the familiar palace wall, Chen Tangwen could not help but sigh.
More than ten years ago, when he left here, he was shackled and convicted. His martial cultivation was abolished, and he was stripped of his position as a citizen and exiled from the capital.
When he returned here again, he was welcomed back with extremely high etiquette.
The current Emperor of Great Zhao was no longer the same person who had demoted Chen Tangwen back then.
Seven years ago, that Emperor died of illness.
After that, the Crown Prince ascended the throne and was named Emperor Deyou.
It was the seventh year of Deyou now.
Chen Tangwen walked into the palace in a Daoist robe. His gaze swept across the left and right sides. There were hundreds of officials bowing their heads. He looked up and saw a young face on the jade steps at the end of the palace. He was the former Crown Prince and the current Emperor.
His actions made all the officials present tremble in fear. Some of the more timid people broke out in cold sweat.
This fellow was really bold.
He actually dared to look directly at the officials in the Imperial Court!
However, as an expert who had cultivated to the Inner World realm and had already reached the peak of the world in terms of martial strength, he did seem to have such confidence.
After sizing up the Emperor on the jade steps for a moment, Chen Tangwen cupped his hands and said, “Greetings, Sir.”
Such a method of greeting the Emperor was unprecedented.
However, no one in the Imperial Court criticized him. Even the Emperor on the jade steps still looked at him with a smile.
“Lord Chen’s return has resolved the danger of the Imperial City. You can be said to have done a great deed,” Emperor Zhao said with a smile. “I want you to be the Prime Minister and lead the country’s military. How about that?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the expression of an old man standing at the front of the court changed.
His beard trembled slightly, and his mouth opened slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he lowered his head and said nothing.
Seeing that the old man did not say anything, the other officials stopped their thoughts and continued to remain silent.
“There’s no need for that.” Chen Tangwen shook his head and refused. He said indifferently, “From the day I was demoted and exiled from the capital, I’ve had nothing to do with the Imperial Court. I’m only a disciple of the Immortal Wind Monastery now.
I came to the capital this time to protect the citizens of my hometown and prevent them from dying tragically under the butcher’s knife of the barbarians. I don’t want to return to the Imperial Court.”
The main hall immediately fell silent. His words really challenged the understanding of the officials in the current dynasty.
Prime Minister!
This was the position of Prime Minister that could overturn the world. He rejected it so easily?
Emperor Zhao did not expect Chen Tangwen to refuse so bluntly, but he still maintained a kind expression and smiled. “Since Lord Chen doesn’t want an official position, he should at least be rewarded. Otherwise, the world will probably say that I’m mean.”
“I do have something to trouble you with,” Chen Tangwen said in a low voice. “Decades ago, the reputation of the Immortal Wind Monastery was tainted by the Lotus Flower Monastery. It’s still affected today.
Emperor, please issue an edict to announce to the world that the Immortal Wind Monastery is an orthodox Daoist sect and a righteous sect. It has never cultivated any crooked evil techniques. Please maintain our reputation.”
