I Am Loaded with Passive Skills - Chapter 1920

Chapter 1796 Offense

Chapter 1796 Offense
“Are the people in the Yunshan Emperor Realm crazy?”

The words “you will bear the consequences at your own risk” echo far and wide.

Everyone on and off Yingke Peak, whether it was the servants sweeping the road, the guards guarding the mountain, and the clansmen from the various branch of the Han Palace Imperial Realm that lived nearby, all heard it.

Everyone was shocked beyond words.

After the shock, there was uncontrollable anger, which almost ignited the noble blood of the Han Palace Emperor Realm people:
“What a Yunshan envoy, what an arrogant and domineering tone!”

“Why don’t the people of Yunshan take a piss and look at themselves? Who gave them the guts to send an elder to meet the Saint Emperor of our clan?”

“In my opinion, the person who came here has bad intentions…”

“No matter if he is kind or not, I would arrest him and beat him up based on what he said, then take him to the Cold Prison and name the Holy Emperor Yunshan. If he doesn’t come here in person, we won’t release him!”

“Yes! It is true that when there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will become the king? They clearly know that our Saint Emperor is in seclusion, and they want to come to our Han Palace to show off their power after killing Saint Emperor Kunpeng. How outrageous!”

“Lawless and without rules, he deserves to be killed!”

“Yunshan’s shit is so disgusting!”

“The storm is about to come… Hurry! Go to Tingyu Pavilion and invite Master Li…”

No matter how angry they are, there are still many rational people in the Han Palace Imperial Realm.

Everyone knew that even if their own Saint Emperor was not in seclusion now, he could not lower his status to meet a small elder of a foreign race just because of these few words.

So, if we want to settle this matter.

Ultimately, the problem can only be solved if Young Master Li, the patriarch, who is one level lower than the Saint Emperor but has a much higher status than the elders, steps in.

“I’m afraid that Hua Zhiyao, the elder of the Yunshan Criminal Hall, is not here to discuss matters, but to cause trouble…”

“What are you afraid of? We can discuss things easily, but if you find trouble, we’ll kill you!”

“Saint Emperor Yunshan rode the wind and soared straight up, and even slashed Saint Emperor Kunpeng with his sword. He has been very popular these days, but other clans are afraid of him. I, Han Palace, am not afraid!”

A maid in Tingyu Pavilion received a message and had to end her vacation early and go to find Yuegongli who was drinking and listening to music in the pavilion.

Yuegong Li left the barren mountain half a year ago.

His self-explosion caused quite a stir within the clan at the time.

But the main issue was not the self-destruction itself, but the fact that during the self-destruction, some disturbances occurred in the Han Palace Imperial Realm.

The sister in the cold prison disappeared!
This matter is a big deal, but it is also a lie. As soon as he came out of prison, Yue Gongli suppressed it.

He did not give any further explanation.

Soon, the people in the Han Palace Emperor Realm no longer dared to discuss it.

Sometimes it is mentioned, but people would just think that it is just a leisurely move made by the young master before the storm.

But Yue Gongli usually wouldn’t make a move that targeted his own family members, so he later traced the clues privately.

It must be Daoqiongcang who is causing trouble.

Or maybe Dao Qiongcang was framing someone by using his sister Dao Xuanji.

But taking my sister away from Hanyu was what Yue Gong wanted. The only regret was that Dao Qiong Cang…

Yue Gongli doesn’t even want to touch Dao Qiongcang now – after he blew himself up and reshaped his body, he still feels that he has been defiled.

No matter how you try to wash, things on the spiritual level can never be cleansed.

However, the son’s debt must be paid by the father!
At this point, it just so happened that a ghost Buddha appeared on the Holy Divine Continent and melted the ladder to heaven, completely cutting off contact with Dao Qiongcang.

Yue Gongli simply went to the Qianshi Emperor Realm in person, found the Qianshi Saint Emperor, and successfully obtained a lot of benefits… Like selling out his sister?
On the one hand, Yue Gongli could feel that the blood connection with his sister was still there, and the person should be safe. On the other hand, he blew himself up, and after coming out of seclusion, he got a lot of favors from the Qianshi Saint Emperor without knowing it.

“Confused…”

“But it feels like it’s all good?”

There are too many things in this world that are hard to see through.

Since I can’t figure it out, let time find the answer.

Just like now, Yue Gongli was still soaking his feet and listening to opera in Tingyu Pavilion. The maid suddenly reported to him about Yunshan Dijing’s actions, and Yue Gongli didn’t understand it at all. His first reaction was to delay.

“Hua Changdeng, what are you doing?”

Think in the most outrageous way possible…

If it is said that this Hua Zhiyao was a puppet of Dao Qiongcang’s Heavenly Secrets and was used to stir up trouble, Yue Gongli could accept it.

Apart from that, he racked his brains but couldn’t figure out what Hua Changdeng was trying to do.

“He’s not that kind of person, is he?”

Hua Changdeng has been wandering around the world for a long time. He wears white clothes and carries a sword. He will draw his sword to help when he sees injustice. He has a bit of chivalrous spirit.

Yuegongli likes to make friends with such people the most.

Because there is no suspicion, even if he becomes the head of the family, he will make more calculations for the Yunshan family. In essence, Hua Changdeng is a straightforward person.

Ancient sword cultivators are all straightforward.

Oh, except for that guy Xu Xiaoshou.

He is not even an ancient swordsman, just like Dao Qiongcang, he is not a human being!
The maid was massaging Yue Gongli’s feet, and seeing that he was at a loss, she asked, “Master Li, do you want to meet him?”

Being a maid doesn’t require you to rack your brains to think about difficult problems.

You just need to provide some emotional value when Li Gongzi needs it, or ask a question that can only be answered with yes or no when he is hesitant.

The smart Mr. Li will do the rest of the thinking himself.

“I don’t really want to see…”

“But Master Li, he said it will take a quarter of an hour. If you don’t show up, you will bear the consequences yourself.”

As soon as these words came out, there was a “splash” sound, and Yue Gongli immediately pulled his feet out of the medicinal bath tub, waved his hand to let the singer leave, and sighed:

“Then let’s meet.”

“It’s not good to leave it alone. From the tone you said, he must have something important or urgent to ask me for.”

The maid didn’t even think twice: “I’m looking for the master of the house.”

Yue Gongli laughed loudly, stretched out his hand to pinch the maid’s cute face, and stood up, someone put on his robe for him:
“The drunkard’s interest is not in wine, my little bottle!”

“No, silly pig.”

…

“Brother Zhiyao, there is news from Tingyu Pavilion. Young Master Li will be here soon. Please wait for a moment.”

In the reception room, Yue Gongkui personally brought a plate of exquisite pastries from the main seat and placed it on the table beside Hua Zhiyao with a smile.

“Come, Brother Zhiyao, have a taste of the osmanthus cake from Guizhe Holy Mountain.”

He did not sit in the main seat, but stood beside the table.

After indicating that he wanted to taste it, he pinched a piece of osmanthus cake and ate it with tea.

They looked like old friends chatting.

Hua Zhiyao didn’t even move his eyelids, his expression was extremely solemn, and he actually looked like he was ready to die.

It’s difficult…

Yuegong Kui was overwhelmed.

If the envoy from Yunshan had this attitude, it meant that the matter was no longer something that could be simply described as “big”.

He half-knelt down in front of the table, level with Hua Zhiyao, and said in a gentle tone:

“Brother Zhiyao, there’s really no need to deliberately keep such a strange distance between you and me.”

“What’s the matter? Please let me know in advance. When Master Li comes later, I can help him and speak for you, right?”

Hua Zhiyao looked away coldly: “The one the master wants me to see is the Holy Emperor of Han Palace.”

“Hey, Brother Zhiyao, what are you doing?”

Yue Gongkui slapped his thigh when he heard the voice, “You also know that our Saint Emperor is in seclusion, so he will definitely not be able to meet him.”

“Haha.” Hua Zhiyao sneered.

Yue Gongkui sighed repeatedly, feeling very embarrassed: “Besides, Master Li is the young master of the family. His words are the words of our clan’s Saint Emperor. It is a matter of universal recognition. What’s wrong with that?”

“I will only wait for a quarter of an hour and complete the task assigned by the master. When the time is up, I will leave immediately and will not stay.”

This was said decisively.

Yuegong Kui’s heart moved.

He loosened up. This old stubborn man’s defense was loosened. This was an opportunity to break through… He was not in a hurry. He took another sip of tea before saying:

“Brother Zhiyao, we have been friends for so many years, why can’t you let me know anything about the mission?”

He talked about the old times:
“Six years ago, I was an envoy to the Yunshan Imperial Territory. I remember how Brother Zhiyao treated me, and I wanted to repay him.”

“You don’t say anything. When Master Li comes later, I won’t be able to interrupt even if I want to help!”

Hua Zhiyao looked at him deeply, shook his head slightly, and said nothing.

“oops!”

Yue Gongkui was anxious, clenched his fist, and finally pounded the table lightly, “Brother Zhiyao, don’t look so ready to die. It hurts me so much.”

“Yuegong Kui, I’m afraid I’m really going to die.”

What?
When these words came out, Yue Gongkui was stunned and asked anxiously: “Brother Zhiyao, why do you say that?”

“I’m afraid I’ll have to die in your Han Palace Emperor Realm.”

What are you talking about!
Yue Gongkui was chilled to the bone and kept saying,
“Brother Zhiyao, don’t scare me!”

“You are the Yunshan Envoy, so your safety in the Han Palace Imperial Realm is absolutely guaranteed.”

“Let’s not talk about anything else. Even if Brother Zhiyao wants to die, I, your brother, will die before you… The Han Palace Imperial Realm is definitely not a dangerous place. Even if it is, even if there is danger, I will take the blame for you and die before you! Are you at ease with this, brother?” Yue Gongkui said in a loud voice.

Hua Zhiyao looked at him, his expression softened a little, and there was a hint of emotion in his eyes.

Moon Palace Qui-Gon should be happy.

But Hua Zhiyao closed his eyes again, shook his head slowly, let out a long sigh, and said nothing more.

Don’t…

You speak…

I have come to this point, and you are still acting like this. What should I do?

“Brother Zhiyao, putting aside our positions and just talking about our friendship, do you believe me?”

“letter.”

“So you think that I, Yuegong Kui, can’t protect you in this Hangong Emperor Realm?”

“right.”

“If that’s the case…ah? Right? Brother Zhiyao, what do you mean by this?” Yuegong Kuito was stunned.

Hua Zhiyao sighed, “What if the person who wants to kill me is Master Li?”

The reception room was quiet.

Awkwardness spread in silent silence.

The corners of Yue Gongkui’s mouth twitched a few times, and he forced a smile: “Why would Master Li kill you for no reason? Brother Zhiyao, you are joking, haha, ah haha…”

He picked up the teacup, took a small sip, and found it hard to swallow.

This tea is really bitter.

It turns out that he is not ready to die, but is really going to die?
What kind of mission did Hua Zhiyao take? What on earth does Yunshan Emperor Realm want to do?
If I said I was just curious before.

Now Yuegong Kui felt that if he did not ask Hangong Dijing about Hua Zhiyao’s mission indirectly, he would have been in vain in being an elder.

He said cautiously: “Brother Zhiyao, are you here for the matter of Wu Rao Dijing?”

After thinking about it, Hua Zhiyao nodded, then shook his head, without making any comment.

Judging from his expression alone, he was so cold that it seemed as if he didn’t even know what “The matter of sparing the emperor’s realm” was.

Yuegong Kui considered it and said tentatively:

“Actually, I’m not greedy for the 10% share of the Emperor Realm. I just feel that if I don’t take it, Yunshan might take too much and he might think that I don’t want it. It’s not that I don’t want it, but that I want more.”

After finishing the long sentence, without Hua Zhiyao’s reply, Yue Gongkui waved his hands repeatedly:
“Brother Zhiyao, you have to know that this is absolutely not the case!”

“Yu Kunpeng was killed by the Holy Emperor Yunshan alone. This is known to all four families. We only provided some intelligence.”

“This is Wu Rao Emperor Realm. Logically speaking, Yunshan should have the lion’s share. Not to mention 80%, it wouldn’t be too much to take all of it!”

His tone softened, as if he was chatting with someone close to him. He sighed and sat down on a lower seat beside him.
“But you and I are from the Saint Emperor family, and we both know that this is completely impossible.”

“Fairness is impossible, and absolute fairness is even more impossible. There must be give and take, and only then can there be a long-term balance.”

“Put it this way!”

He hesitated for a moment, and seeing that Hua Zhiyao still had no expression on his face, he showed an expression as if he had made a decision, and then lowered his voice and said,
“Brother Zhiyao, let me tell you something.”

“From my side, Han Palace, there are two options.”

“First, if we only take 10%, then no matter how the Yunshan incident develops, or how the tribes fight, we will not get involved. After all, we have already taken what we deserve.”

“But if my Han Palace can get 30%, then Yunshan will be the enemy of Qianshi and Beiming. When necessary, my Han Palace Emperor Realm will definitely lend a helping hand.”

“But you have to know that the extra 20% is not for 20%, but for a friendship, a thousand-year friendship! The Saint Emperor’s Golden Edict can be used as a bond!”

Yuegong Kui was truly having a heart-to-heart talk.

He didn’t want Hua Zhiyao to die. Although they were in opposite positions, the Hua Zhiyao of today might be me in the future.

This time, he revealed Han Gong’s true intentions, not only to strengthen the friendship between Han Gong and Yun Shan, but also to deepen the bond between him and Hua Zhiyao.

Only if both sides support each other can each of them have better development in their respective ethnic groups, right?
Hua Zhiyao is not stupid.

On the contrary, he is very smart, otherwise he would not be qualified for the position of Elder of the Punishment Hall. Naturally, he should know the implied meaning of his words.

“Thirty percent…” Hua Zhiyao murmured.

“right!”

Yuegong Kui waited for his response.

But after waiting for a while, Hua Zhiyao murmured silently, still looking dead.

“Brother Zhiyao, please say something. It’s just a matter of one word whether it’s possible or not. Why do you have to be so stubborn?” Yuegongkui said with hatred, and was slightly unhappy for a moment, trying to play hard to get.

Hua Zhiyao had no inclination to confide in each other.

On the contrary, after Yuegong Kui said this, he returned to his previous cold and indifferent attitude, and even his address became very dull:
“Yuegong Kui, this is no longer a matter of 10% or 30%, but I will die here.”

He pointed at the ground and said in a low voice that echoed in the hall:
“Die in this reception room of your clan!”

I miss you so much, Hua Zhiyao, can’t you tell me a little more… Yue Gongkui’s tone turned cold, but he said:

“Okay, then I’ll wait to see you die, but if necessary, Brother Zhiyao, I will save you. This is just my wishful thinking!”

Hua Zhiyao looked at him, the corners of his mouth twitched twice:

“Thank you very much.”

Look, I am so moved!

Yuegong Kui’s back stiffened a little.

Even if Master Li came today, he couldn’t kill you.

I will do my best to save you from the dire straits, and I hope you can repay me in the same way in the future.

“Mr. Li has arrived.”

Outside the reception room, the guards shouted.

The entrance to the hall seemed to be much brighter, and a handsome young man with a triumphant look and a big smile on his face came towards them.

He wore a white open-chested cardigan and a mink coat. His attire was casual and unrestrained, quite free and easy.

As soon as he entered the hall, he burst into laughter.

Then, with two rows of beautiful maids carrying tea and holding pipa, she strode to the main seat and sat down, saying loudly:

“Elder Hua, I haven’t seen you for a few years. I hope you are doing well.”

“Let’s not talk about the matter first. The distinguished guest has come from afar, and my humble palace is honored. I have a song I composed called “Dongjiang Smile” and I would like to let Elder Hua appreciate it first.”

He clapped his hands and raised his chin to the maids:
“Come on, play the music!”

The female musicians, like fairies from heaven, struck their poses, smiled sweetly, and began to play the pipa.

Hua Zhiyao ignored him completely. When he saw the real master had arrived, he immediately stood up and spoke in a solemn voice:

“Mr. Li, I will not give you the Dongjiang Smile for now. I came here today because the master of the family asked me to do you a favor.”

Yuegong Li smiled and waved to the maids to wait on the side and not to leave.

Today I let you enjoy this “Dongjiang Smile”, and you have to enjoy it.

If I ask you to laugh, you have to laugh.

“What is it?”

Yuegong Li smiled, his fox eyes narrowed into slits.

Hua Zhiyao clasped his fists coldly and said respectfully: “Please step down from the young master and get closer to me.”

“interesting.”

Yuegongli stuffed the remaining half of the pastry into her mouth, snapped her fingers, stood up, patted her hips, and strode to Hua Zhiyao while chewing.

Hua Zhiyao drew out the long sword from his waist.

No one in the reception hall was surprised, and no one even shouted “Protect the emperor”.

No one would think that this sword was meant to stab Master Li – Emperor Yunshan must be crazy to send an elder to “assassinate” Master Li!

This is exactly the case.

Hua Zhiyao simply handed over the first-grade spiritual sword in his hand and said sincerely: “Please, Master Li, grant me death.”

“oh?”

Yuegong Li took the sword with a smile without asking why.

He raised the sword to his neck, and the sharp blade cut through the skin of Hua Zhiyao who had no defense.

Blood flowed down.

“No!”

Yuegong Kui shouted urgently.

Others don’t know that Master Li might really be willing to chop off Brother Zhiyao’s head with a single sword if he gets the mood.

Yuegongli was not in such a mood today.

What interested him was why he had to go to this extent.
“Tell me, why do you want to die?”

“Because it’s offensive.”

“Huh? You’re already saying it’s offensive before you even open your mouth. I’m curious, how offensive can you be?”

“It’s offensive.”

Yue Gongli stared at Hua Zhiyao who was ready to die, the words from the maid in Tingyu Pavilion echoing in his mind, as if he was thinking about something.

He took off his sword and threw it on the ground. He raised his chin, chewing some cakes, and glanced at Hua Zhiyao in front of him, saying jokingly:

“Come on, offend me.”

Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, Hua Zhiyao slapped Yue Gongli hard on the left side of his fair face, causing him to stagger three and a half steps to the side, and the cake in his mouth sprayed all over Le Nu.
