Peerless Taoist

This was a taboo of the empire. Just like the Imperial Jade Seal and the Heavenly Emperor Sword, only the emperor could touch it. If an outsider touched it, it would be a great violation of the law. Even the crown prince could not touch it.    

However, Lu Yu was different. He was the Human Emperor.    

He was the master of the human race, and the Heaven Realm revered him. The Golden Dragon of Fate sensed a familiar and warm aura from Lu Yu's body, so it did not reject it. Instead, it allowed Lu Yu to touch it.    

When his hand touched the Golden Dragon of Fate, Lu Yu's gaze instantly enveloped the entire territory of the Great Zhou Empire. He saw everything on the land, including what everyone was saying.    

This was something only the Great Zhou Heavenly Emperor could do.    

"Ji Wenchang is very considerate. In just a few short years, he has actually built the Great Zhou Empire so strong and powerful. Even though he is in a remote corner, he is not inferior to the Great Yu Heavenly Dynasty."    

Lu Yu sighed with emotion.    

Be it Ji Wenchang or Li Bo, they were both emperors of the Middle Ages. They had experienced the vicissitudes of time and were extremely experienced.    

To control an empire, not only did one have to look at the strength of the ruler, one also had to look at the ability to govern the people.    

From this point of view, Ji Wenchang and Li Bo were indeed quite capable.    

"Where is Ji Wenchang now?" Lu Yu asked.    

The Golden Dragon of Fate let out a low roar, and then an ancient and mysterious sound entered Lu Yu's ears.    

This syllable was powerful and ancient. It was a syllable formed from the roar of a dragon. If a person with a slightly weaker soul power were to hear this voice, they would probably collapse.    

This was the ancient Dragon Language.    

This kind of Dragon Language had almost been lost in the Dragon Clan. Only pure-blooded dragons like Ao Guang could understand it.    

The golden dragon was formed from the accumulation of the world's fate. Dragons were the supreme beings of all things, so they were transformed into the shape of a dragon. This golden dragon could actually speak the ancient Dragon Language. It could be seen that the Great Zhou Dynasty's foundation was definitely not something that ordinary small dynasties could compare with.    

"What? Ji Wenchang was actually attacked and he is still unconscious?"    

When Lu Yu heard the golden dragon's words, he could not help but be shocked.    

Ji Wenchang was already an Earth Realm expert, and he was even an expert at the tenth level of the Earth Realm. Even if he was facing a Heaven Realm expert, he would not be easily defeated. He did not expect that he would be injured by someone.    

"Where is he now?"    

Lu Yu asked where Ji Wenchang was and immediately left.    

With a whoosh, Lu Yu turned into a black shadow and arrived in front of the Zhou Imperial Palace in the blink of an eye.    

At this moment, there were many ministers of the Zhou Imperial Palace standing in front of the palace. When Lu Yu suddenly arrived here, everyone was shocked.    

"How dare you! Who are you? How dare you barge in here!"    

"Assassin, quickly take him down!"    

The officials of the Zhou Dynasty were stunned at first, but then they turned pale with fright. Some of the generals even pulled out their swords from their waists.    

"All of you, back down!" At this moment, an old voice sounded.    

In front of the officials, there was an old man. The other officials were all standing and waiting. Only this old man had a noble status and was given a seat by the emperor. The other officials did not seem to be dissatisfied with this, and they respectfully waited behind the old man.    

The War Saint, Jiang Shang!    

At this moment, Jiang Shang stood up and bowed to Lu Yu, "Greetings, Your Majesty!"    

"What? He is the Qin Emperor?"    

"Even the War Saint has admitted it, so it's naturally true. Hurry up and bow!"    

Only then did the surrounding Zhou officials react, and they all bowed to Lu Yu respectfully.    

Lu Yu did not pay attention to this. He looked at Jiang Shang and said, "Sage Jiang, what happened to Ji Wenchang?"    

Jiang Shang's expression was a little solemn as he said with a long sigh, "I was still unprepared. I didn't expect that someone would dare to sneak attack His Majesty. Although that person was severely injured, I did not stop him and let him escape."    

At this moment, Jiang Shang and Lu Yu recounted what had happened that day.    

After Ji Wenchang left the Kunlun Secret Realm, he had just come out of the spatial rift and was attacked.    

Although he was an expert at the tenth level of the Earth Realm, he had just jumped out of the spatial rift and was in a state of being unable to defend himself. The other party was clearly also an expert, and he was waiting for this opportunity to attack Ji Wenchang.    

Ji Wenchang was caught off guard and was hit on the spot. However, he was also an expert. While the assassin was attacking him, he retaliated valiantly and severely injured the assassin.    

Jiang Sheng was in the Lochlan City. By the time he realized what had happened, it was already too late. That person had already escaped and was nowhere to be found.    

"Until now, His Majesty is still unconscious and unable to wake up. We have used all kinds of methods, but we are still unable to wake him up." Jiang Shang sighed.    

"Oh? Even you can't do it?" Lu Yu raised his eyebrows.    

This was the Great Zhou Imperial Palace, not the King of Yue's Mansion.    

Back then, when Yue Wang was cursed and fell into a coma, it was understandable that the King of Yue's Mansion was helpless. However, this was the capital of the Great Zhou Empire, where experts were as numerous as the clouds. If even this place could not help Ji Wenchang recover, then it would be a little unimaginable.    

"Let me take a look," Lu Yu said.    

Jiang Shang nodded and brought Lu Yu into the bedroom.    

The surrounding Great Zhou ministers immediately stretched their necks. This was the first time they had seen Lu Yu. They had clearly heard of the legends and deeds of Lu Yu, but when they saw Lu Yu for the first time, they were still shocked.    

"I didn't expect that this was the Qin Emperor. He really hid himself well. If not for Jiang Shang's reminder, I would have definitely not been able to discover that this person in front of me was the Qin Emperor."    

"I wonder if His Majesty can turn the situation around. Even the alchemy masters in the palace can't do it. I'm afraid that even the Qin Emperor can't do it. After all, there are specializations in every field."    

Many of the ministers were discussing among themselves, and their eyes were filled with doubt and distrust.    

Those who were able to stand here were all high-ranked ministers in the Great Zhou Empire. The Emperor, Ji Wenchang, was assassinated and was unconscious. This kind of thing could not be spread out, or else it might cause chaos.    

Therefore, only these ministers knew about this news.    

Under everyone's gaze, Lu Yu walked into the palace.    

As soon as he stepped in, Lu Yu felt a wave of warm air blowing at his face. He saw that Ji Wenchang was actually lying on a fire bed, and the firewood below was burning fiercely. There were eunuchs constantly filling the fuel.    

There were also seven or eight braziers placed around him. There was charcoal burning in them, and the scorching hot air was baking the entire palace.    

"What is this for?" Lu Yu asked.    

Ji Wenchang sighed and said, "The person who dealt with His Majesty used an ice attribute spell. It was quite mysterious, and even I could not find out where the source of the spell was. His Majesty's warmth was falling too quickly, so we had no choice but to use this method."    

Lu Yu nodded. He glanced at Ji Wenchang, who was lying on the fire bed, and his soul power instantly erupted. He looked at the center of Ji Wenchang's brows.    

Under his gaze, there was a rune buried deep in the center of Ji Wenchang's brows. It was faintly discernible.
