Great Li Martial God

"Are you cursing me?"

The young man abruptly straightened his body, his eyes sharply staring at Li Musheng.

Li Musheng raised his eyebrows and narrowed his eyes, "Just speaking the truth. If you don't believe it... well, then don't believe it."

Saying this, he turned to look at the young eunuch who had stopped ahead, "You don't need to lead the way anymore. Just tell me which room I'm staying in."

Hearing this, the young eunuch hurriedly turned back and bowed while handing Li Musheng a jade token, "Young master is staying in East Building, room seventeen. This is the door token. If you need anything on ordinary days, you can go to the room at the end of the corridor to instruct us servants."

Having said this, the young eunuch said "This servant takes his leave" and turned to leave without looking back.

At this time, Li Musheng turned to look at that young man, "Try pressing between the Shanzhong and Jiuwei acupoints. Do you feel a needle-like stabbing pain?"

Hearing this, the young man's expression froze. He stared at Li Musheng for a while. Seeing his composed demeanor, it didn't seem like he was speaking nonsense.

After hesitating for a moment, he put away the folding fan in his hand and tentatively reached out to gently press the position he had just mentioned.

However, the next moment, the young man cried out in pain with a deathly pale face. Then his entire person's head tilted to the side as he fainted on the spot. Seeing this, Li Musheng was slightly stunned, "This kid is way too weak, isn't he?"

At this time, the young eunuch who had already gone far suddenly turned back upon hearing the sound. His figure disappeared from his original position, and after several flashes, he stopped beside that young man.

The young eunuch grasped the other party's wrist, immediately injecting true qi to examine the young man's condition.

Soon, a trace of surprise appeared on his face, "Meridians are stable, breathing is normal, blood qi is abundant. Why did he faint?"

Saying this, he turned to look at Li Musheng beside him. Li Musheng shook his head, "I didn't make a move. Why don't you try probing his pericardium meridian from the Tianquan acupoint?"

Hearing this, the young eunuch frowned, but still tried injecting true qi to do as told.

However, the next instant, his expression suddenly changed drastically as he abruptly withdrew his finger.

A wisp of black mist surged out from the young man's Tianquan acupoint in reverse, following the true qi released from his finger like spreading vines, winding upward. In the blink of an eye, it had already reached his wrist.

Although the young eunuch didn't know what this black qi was, he could guess it definitely wasn't anything good.

He immediately mobilized the true qi in his dantian, wanting to expel the black mist from his hand.

However, what he hadn't expected was that the black mist was like bone-corroding maggots. Not only did it merge into his true qi, but it was also invading his meridians at extremely fast speed.

Seeing this, the young eunuch was immediately alarmed. Just as he didn't know what to do, a palm from behind suddenly lightly patted his shoulder once.

Then he saw that the wisp of black mist that had already invaded his right arm's meridians had vanished without a trace in an instant.

He gripped his hand in amazement, as if the previous scene was just his illusion and the black mist had never appeared at all.

The young eunuch turned around and looked at Li Musheng, who had handsome features and a calm face. After coming to his senses, he hurriedly stood up and bowed, "Thank you for your help, young master. This servant is extremely grateful."

Hearing this, Li Musheng casually waved his hand and pointed at the young man collapsed on the ground, "I'll leave this person to you to handle."

Having said this, he directly turned and left. However, halfway through, he suddenly turned back, "Oh right, this wasn't my doing. As for if you want to know what's going on, you'll have to figure out the reason from him."

"However, I advise you to hurry. After six hours, he'll be beyond saving."

Hearing this, the young eunuch's expression changed. He opened his mouth wanting to ask questions.

But Li Musheng paid no attention, spinning the jade token in his fingertips as he continued toward his own room.

The young eunuch looked back at the young man on the ground, frowned, but still reached out to carry him on his back and rushed toward the room at the end of the corridor.

The Tianjin Guards, as a special institution personally established by Emperor Yuanwu, had the authority to monitor court officials and all of Great Li on his behalf, while also being a sharp weapon to maintain imperial power.

Not only did it have many martial Dao experts within, but they all practiced top-tier martial arts collected in Great Li's martial treasury. Their overall strength was no weaker than Six Doors.

Additionally, the Tianjin Guards were divided into Inner and Outer Guards. The Inner Guards were composed of palace eunuchs with high bone structure and aptitude, listening only to Emperor Yuanwu's commands alone.

The Outer Guards were formed from elite military warriors, spread throughout Great Li's important provincial cities, monitoring the world and collecting information between common people and officials everywhere.

...

In a room with burning incense, An Quan, the Palace Supervisor eunuch in charge, opened his eyes and stopped cultivating the "Sunflower Yin Scripture."

At this time, the young eunuch carrying the unconscious young man rushed hurriedly into the outer room, drawing the gazes of several eunuchs in the room.

"Little An, what happened?"

An Quan pushed open the inner room's door, looking at the young man on the young eunuch's back.

Little An put the person down, then hurriedly recounted everything that had happened in the corridor just now in detail.

"Although you only recently stepped into the Innate Realm, you're still a bona fide Innate expert. Yet you couldn't handle a mere wisp of residual black qi?"

An Quan furrowed his extremely sparse eyebrows, a trace of surprise in his sharp voice.

Then he took several steps forward and arrived beside the young man. Just as he reached out to probe the Tianquan acupoint, Little An hurriedly said, "Godfather, be careful. That black qi is extremely strange and difficult to deal with."

An Quan sneered coldly, "You underestimate your godfather too much. I've already stepped halfway into the Innate Grand Master martial Dao realm. Mere black qi is nothing to worry about."

Having said this, a strand of Sunflower Yin true qi surged from An Quan's fingertip. The cold aura made the surrounding air temperature drop several degrees.

His fingertip traced an afterimage, instantly pointing down. That strand of Sunflower Yin true qi precisely entered the young man's Tianquan acupoint.

Just as expected, another wisp of black mist surged out from the acupoint in reverse, then tried to wind upward along the Sunflower Yin true qi at An Quan's fingertip.

Seeing this, An Quan seemed to recognize something for a moment. He decisively cut off the Sunflower Yin true qi at his fingertip in time, while his entire person abruptly retreated several steps, distancing himself from the young man lying on the ground.

"Northern Qi Dark Energy?"

After stopping, Grand Eunuch An Quan's expression changed unpredictably. The surrounding group of eunuchs didn't know what had happened and all dared not speak.

Only Little An beside him looked at his obviously somewhat unsettled appearance and asked carefully, "Godfather, what is Northern Qi Dark Energy?"

Hearing this, An Quan came to his senses slightly. He paced cautiously, observing the young man on the ground in a circle while saying, "Northern Qi Dark Energy is one of the top-tier secret canon techniques from the former Great Qi imperial court. After Great Qi fell as a nation, it was already lost. I didn't expect it to appear on this person today."
