Bab 144: 144. Saber Qi Suppressed The Three Elders
"Here we are, Chang City!"
Lin Fei raised his head and he saw the towering and majestic walls of Chang City. However, unlike the last time, outside the city gates of Chang City, on both sides of the road, a large number of refugees had gathered. Many corpses of refugees lay on the ground, emitting a stench and nobody cared.
The number of soldiers at the city gate had clearly increased several times compared to before. Each of them was nervously looking at these refugees outside the city.
Lin Fei frowned. If even the area outside Chang City was like this scene, the entire Great Chang Empire was probably hanging by a thread.
"Stop, the city is under martial law, entry is not allowed."
Lin Fei was about to enter Chang City, but he was stopped by the soldiers guarding the city.
No entry was allowed. Even those who could enter, all had a pass token, otherwise, they were not allowed in.
"Take a good look."
Lin Fei directly threw out a token. This was the Princess Token given by Ling Yao, which could be used to travel throughout the Great Chang Empire.
Upon seeing the token, the guard immediately became serious and saluted, "Please pass, sir!"
With Lin Fei holding the Princess Token, how could the city guards dare to stop him? So, they immediately let him pass.
Lin Fei didn't hesitate and took back the token handed over by the soldier. With a stride of thirty meters, he directly entered Chang City.
Inside Chang City, there were very few pedestrians on the streets. It seemed a bit deserted. After all, Chang City had begun to restrict entry. The city naturally lost its former prosperity.
Judging from the situation in Chang City, the situation in Great Chang was also very grim. All this was happening while the Royal Supreme Elder was still alive and sitting in Chang City. If the Royal Supreme Elder passed away, to what extent would the entire Great Chang Empire fall apart?
Lin Fei arrived at the residence of South King Mansion and threw out the Princess Token. As a result, he was able to meet Princess Ling Yao smoothly.
"Lin Fei, why are you here?"
Ling Yao's expression was a bit haggard. Her face didn't look good. She seemed very tired.
"Senior Sister Ling, I have a request. I hope Senior Sister Ling can take me to meet an elder of the royal family and tell them I have something to discuss," Lin Fei said directly.
"Requesting to meet the elder?"
Ling Yao hesitated for a moment, unable to help but ask, "Lin Fei, if you want to meet the elder, can you tell me what it's for?"
Lin Fei thought about it and didn't hide it from Ling Yao. He said directly, "I want to borrow the martial arts secret records left behind by the Great Chang Founding Emperor."
Ling Yao didn't know about any martial arts secret records. However, she expressed her concerns, "Lin Fei, the situation in the Great Chang has been unstable lately. I believe you saw it on the way here.
Paradise Sect is causing chaos. They have conquered several Prefectures, causing shock throughout the Empire. The court has already dispatched a large army to suppress the rebellion, but they were defeated.
Some of the elders of the royal family have gone to assist the army in quelling the chaos. So, there aren't many elders left in the royal family now. Whether they will agree or not, I don't know."
Lin Fei nodded and said, "As long as Senior Sister Ling can let me meet the elder, that's enough. As for whether the elder agrees or not, I will try to persuade them myself."
"Alright, then wait for a while. There shouldn't be any problem in letting you meet the elder."
So, Ling Yao got up and went to the palace. She went to explain Lin Fei's situation. Lin Fei waited quietly at the South King Mansion. About two hours later, Ling Yao returned.
"It's fine, you can go to the palace directly with my token. This time, I won't accompany you. As long as the Paradise Sect's rebels are not dealt with, the more troubles I, as a princess, have to deal with."
"Okay, I'll go by myself."
Ling Yao left in a hurry again. It seemed she was really busy.
"Paradise Sect..."
Lin Fei shook his head slightly. Now was not the time to think about these matters.
Lin Fei moved at thirty meters per step, his figure fleeting. He quickly arrived at the entrance of the palace. At the palace gate, a eunuch was already waiting.
"Is it Young Master Lin Fei?"
"Yes, it's Lin."
"Please follow me."
Following the eunuch, Lin Fei saw the familiar stairs again.
Along the stairs, Lin Fei came to the underground Ascending Dragon Chamber of the palace. This time, there were still three elders of the royal family in the Ascending Dragon Chamber. However, these three were not the same elders Lin Fei had met the last time.
"'Immortal Slayer Saber' Lin Fei, the princess told us that you have something to discuss with us?" One of the elders spoke slowly.
Lin Fei nodded and said, "Three elders, I would like to borrow the martial arts secret records left behind by the Great Chang Founding Emperor."
Lin Fei directly stated his request.
"Martial arts secret records?"
The three elders shook their heads slightly, "We, the royal family, have been paying attention to your situation all along. Originally, our royal family established a good relationship with you. However, we must still follow the rules.
The martial arts secret records left behind by the Founding Emperor are only for those who have achieved the level of Martial Arts Grand Master. You haven't become a Martial Arts Grand Master yet, have you? So, you cannot see the martial arts secret records now."
The three elders directly refused Lin Fei's request. Lin Fei frowned. However, he wasn't surprised. Because last time, he also wanted to take a look at the martial arts secret records and he was refused.
Only Martial Arts Grand Masters were allowed to view the martial arts secret records. This was a rule set by the Great Chang Founding Emperor, and it could not be easily changed.
"Can't you make an exception? The Founding Emperor set this rule only because achieving Martial Saint through building the foundation can only be done by Martial Arts Grand Masters.
Although I am not a Martial Arts Grand Master now, it's only a matter of time before I become one. Moreover, even if I am not a Martial Arts Grand Master, I can defeat them with one saber strike. Is that not enough to qualify me to view the martial arts secret records?"
Lin Fei frowned deeply. Aside from the royal martial arts secret records, Lin Fei couldn't find any information on martial arts foundation building elsewhere.
As for the rigid requirement of being a Martial Arts Grand Master, Lin Fei could now defeat a Martial Arts Grand Master with just one saber strike. He felt he was already qualified to view the martial arts secret records.
The three elders looked at each other and were speechless.
"Lin Fei, I know about the fame of your 'Immortal Slayer Saber'. However, you said that you can defeat a Martial Arts Grand Master with one saber strike, isn't that a bit too overconfident?
We are just Qi cultivators, so it's not a big deal. But if a Martial Arts Grand Master heard your words, it might bring about disaster. So, it's best not to say such things."
All three elders shook their heads. Defeating a Martial Arts Grand Master with one saber strike? Even if Lin Fei the Immortal Slayer Saber was famous, he seemed to underestimate a Martial Arts Grand Master too much.
Seeing the three elders didn't believe him, Lin Fei took a deep breath and said, "My apologies to the three elders!"
"Boom."
The next moment, Lin Fei mobilized the Saber Qi within his body. Immediately, the Saber Qi surged and burst forth. It instantly condensed into a saber energy within the Ascending Dragon Chamber.
"Crack."
The saber energy even pierced directly through the roof of the Ascending Dragon Chamber. Above it was a thick layer of soil and bricks.
Lin Fei stopped immediately. If he continued like this, the Ascending Dragon Chamber would be destroyed.
At the same time, Lin Fei's transcendent saber intent also suppressed the entire Ascending Dragon Chamber. Even the three Qi Condensation Level 7 elders felt as if they were being crushed by a mountain. It seemed they couldn't even breathe.
This was definitely not pressured that any ordinary martial arts Master could possess.
Grand Master! This must be a Martial Arts Grand Master!
"Three elders, am I now qualified to view the martial arts secret records?"
Lin Fei stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes calmly looking at the three royal elders.
