When Lin Xu returned to Yuzhou City, half a month had passed.

He has been busy in the past few years. Now that Li Xingyun has finally retired, it is rare for him to have some leisure time.

Not long after returning to Yuzhou City, Wang Xu told him Li Xingyun's place of retreat. This guy lived in seclusion in Bashu, which was not too far from Yuzhou City.

This guy is Brother Xiaoyao, who has taken three beauties, Ji Ruxue, Miao Chengtian, and Xuan Jingtian, to live in seclusion. But as he said, Li Xingyun's requirements for beauties are just like Han Xin's orders for troops, the more the better.

Lin Xu stayed at the headquarters of the Yuzhou Beggar Gang for a year, and the two countries Liang and Jin were also fighting fiercely outside.

Li Cunxu of Jin State proclaimed himself emperor, and the throne of Liang State also fell into the hands of Zhu Youzhen.

He personally supervised the war. The Jin State used Luzhou as its base and Liang used Zezhou as its base. The fighting was fierce.

With the death of Zhu Yougui, the land of the Five Mountains was completely reduced to the control of the beggar gang.

In other places, thanks to the efforts of the Nine Big Nine Pockets Elders, basically every state and county has its own branch of the Beggar Clan.

In troubled times, there are countless refugees who are living in danger and begging for a living.

As the reputation of the Beggar Clan spread, the number of members of the Beggar Clan increased rapidly, making it the largest gang in the world.

This year, Lin Xu even went directly to the Qingcheng Mountain Sword Furnace Site to build a house again for the sake of peace and convenience in practicing retreat.

Lin Xu, who was practicing that day, suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the three people coming from a distance.

The leader is tall and tall, with red hair. Who else could the other two be if they weren't black and white?

Seeing Lin Xu sitting cross-legged, Black and White Wuchang saluted respectfully: "My subordinate Black and White Wuchang, please see Pluto!"

"Pluto? After the death of Pluto, the Xuanming Sect fell apart, and there was no Pluto anymore.

You must be the real Ghost King Zhu Youwen who was sealed by Zhu Yougui."

Zhu Youwen's eyes widened: "Yes, I am in the same position as Zhu Yougui. You are just Pluto. Why don't you salute me when you see me?"

"Ghost King Zhu Youwen? You are indeed much stronger than Zhu Yougui, the Great Heavenly One.

However, they are both above the great heaven, but they are very different.

Even if you capture the Xuanming Sect from Po Meng, what if I, Lin Xu, don’t recognize you?"

"Hmph, if you're looking for death, then I'll try what you call your so-called great difference between the two of us!"

Zhu Youwen was a pure martial arts fanatic. Hearing this, he was furious. His body floated up and was wrapped in black mist, and a torrential force rolled in.

Lin Xu frowned and disappeared in a blink of an eye, avoiding Zhu Youwen's attack. At the same time, he counterattacked unceremoniously and punched him hard.

Zhu Youwen instantly avoided it, and the two attacked back and forth, which was very exciting. In the end, Zhu Youwen was defeated.

Lin Xu looked at Zhu Youwen who was retreating calmly. If he hadn't held back, this guy would have been defeated long ago.

He glanced at Black and White Wuchang, who had reached the pinnacle of the Little Heavenly Throne, turned around and left the place, heading down the mountain.

Zhu Youwen could only watch Lin Xu leaving, with no choice but to do anything.

…

In a small town in the land of Bashu, Lin Xu looked at the medical clinic in front of him and listened to the people coming and going discussing Sansheng Nirvana.

He took a step forward and stepped into it. He was looking at Li Xingyun with a bruised nose and a swollen face. Xuan Jingtian, Miao Chengtian and Ji Ruxue were quarreling with him.

Obviously, the bruised nose and swollen face were the good deeds of these three tigresses. Even so, Lin Xu could feel that this guy was happy from the bottom of his heart.

"Pluto...Pluto? Bad deputy commander?"

Xuan Jingtian, Miao Chengtian, and Ji Ruxue suddenly felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy and looked at Lin Xu warily.

Lin Xu smiled: "Your Highness, it's been a long time since I last saw you, and my life has become more carefree.

You three girls don’t have to do this, I have no intention of doing anything bad to you.”

Li Xingyun: "Xue'er, you don't have to be like this. If Brother Lin is not good for us, we can only sit back and wait for death.

Brother Lin, you are not here to persuade me to strive for world domination. If so, then please do what you want.

I'm living a good life now and don't want to get involved in the world's wars."

Lin Xu heard this and shook his head: "Your Highness, to be honest, I don't care at all whether you want to dominate the world or not.

If you want to fight for hegemony, I will do my best to help you. If you don't want to fight for hegemony, there is no loss to me.

During the restoration of the Tang Dynasty, it was the people who suffered. The feudal princes were in conflict and the world was in chaos, but it was still the people who suffered.

It's just that your highness, you think too wonderfully. The Marshal has lived for more than three hundred years and has been loyal to the Tang Dynasty for more than two hundred years. The Tang Dynasty has long been deeply rooted in his heart.

What's more, the commander-in-chief has been laying out the plan for decades. You can't just stay out of it if you don't want to do it or fight for hegemony.

As far as I know, the commander-in-chief only cares about your bloodline.

If you piss him off, it's not impossible to directly draw out your blood and pour it into another person's body.

So you need to be careful, the commander secretly cultivated another person who is exactly like you."

Li Xingyun's expression changed drastically: "What——? Yuan Tiangang!

Why are you telling me this? Are you not afraid of Yuan Tiangang?

If you want to take advantage of me, Li Xingyun, Yuan Tiangang is only dreaming!"

"Will you betray me?"

"Won't!"

"Then it's over! Not only Yuan Tiangang, Tongwen Guan, Liang Guo and other people who want to dominate the world will not let you live in seclusion with peace of mind."

Li Xingyun: "Thank you for informing me. You are a really complicated person, with multiple identities one after another.

The leader of the Beggar Clan, the Pluto of the Xuanming Cult, the bad guy and the poisonous handsome man, each of them holds a high position.

You don’t have another identity, do you?”

"His Highness is overthinking. It's not like His Highness has been protected since he was a child. Everything is just for survival. These are the people in troubled times.

When I was a child, I was a beggar in Yuzhou City.

Joining forces with a few friends and using their skills, they worked hard to open a small restaurant and kept growing.

But the bullies are running rampant, and the money they earn is not enough to pay the protection fee.

After going back and forth, I came up with the idea of ​​​​finding a supporter and going to a place where Xuanming Sect is recruiting people.

He was rejected, but fortunately Po Meng took him seriously and brought him into the religion.

In order to survive and live a better life, the only way is to climb up step by step, stepping on the corpses of others to climb up.

Po Meng is a bad person, and you also know that after I broke through to the Great Heavenly Throne, the Commander-in-Chief of the Cangbing Valley summoned me, and I became the Tianji Star.

Soon after I reached the throne of Heaven, the Commander-in-Chief knew my character and had no intention of fighting for hegemony in the world, so he confidently appointed me as his deputy commander-in-chief.

Today's status is just achieved step by step.

Multiple identities are just a mistake.

It's not just me. I think Miss Ruxue and the two holy ladies also went through many difficulties before they were valued by the empress and entered the high-level ranks of Huanyinfang.

That’s why I said, if Your Highness is interested, I will help you.”

"I——, I'm sorry, I have no intention of fighting for hegemony!"

"See the gang leader!"

At this time, a group of beggars came outside. Under the leadership of a eight-bag helmsman, they looked at Lin Xu with reverence and shouted loudly.

Lin Xu's legendary deeds have long been spread among the Beggar Clan.

"Brothers, please wake up. Brother Chen, thank you for your hard work. The Bashu branch is in good order under your management. You are indispensable!"

"Thank you for the compliment, leader, this is the responsibility of my subordinates.

The gang leader is kind and cares about the people. If it weren't for you, the gang leader, we would still be precarious beggars, let alone learning martial arts.

Gang leader, you asked each branch to pay attention to the collection of various classics. Our Bashu branch has collected a lot this time.

You see? By the way, Gang Leader, those classics are not martial arts secrets, you collected them——?"

"Haha, Brother Chen, it's not a big deal.

Martial arts in the world all come from various classics and ideas, otherwise it would be impossible to create them out of thin air.

I ordered to collect various classics in the hope that I could learn from the best of others and create a unique secret that belongs to my Beggar Clan and will be handed down from generation to generation.

When the time comes, it will be created and passed on to those of you who have made an indispensable contribution."

"Ah——, thank you very much, Gang Leader, the Gang Leader is a great talent!"

Although they don't know what kind of martial arts the gang leader is creating, it must be pretty good if it can be called a gang-suppressing secret skill.

Although the Lingxu Sword Technique they practiced is incomplete, it is still a technique that can be cultivated to a small heaven.

As soon as you break through to the small heaven level, you can go to the main helm to learn the secrets of the next level of skills.

"Brother Lin is a great talent!"

"Thank you, Your Highness! Brother Chen, in this case, let's go and share the helm. Your Highness, take your leave!"
