I'm the one running the game

There were only three people in the imperial study.

One was the young man Lü Xingshi, and the other was an old man over sixty years old, wearing a bright yellow robe. He was the current emperor.

The other was a middle-aged man with a slightly pale face. He was the Palace Master of Huangjue Palace, but Lü Xingshi could see that he was seriously injured.

From this, it can be seen that Huangjue Palace was not bought by Cai Qiuhe as King Wu said at the beginning, but was a firm imperial faction.

"Your Majesty, I summoned you late at night. What's the important matter?" Lü Xingshi sat down carelessly, without kneeling or being terrified. It seemed as if the other party was not the emperor, but an ordinary person.

The Palace Master of Huangjue Palace was a little dissatisfied with this, but due to the other party's strength, he really didn't dare to say too much.

Ten thousand people couldn't stop Lü Xingshi, not to mention that everyone was close at hand now. If Lü Xingshi really wanted to take action, no one in the palace could stop him from killing the emperor.

Being able to call him Your Majesty was already a courtesy from Lu Xingshi, otherwise he would have just called the emperor "Old Man".

"I know you have a grudge against Cai Qiuhe and Wen Dao Hall, and I happen to have one too." The old emperor said somewhat helplessly.

He had been working hard these days, and he really couldn't bear it. He was old and had lost two sons in a short period of time. He was depressed while sending off his sons.

Under great joy and sorrow, it was inevitable that his body would be affected.

In Lu Xingshi's opinion, the old emperor was probably going to die soon, and now that he had seized the opportunity, he would go on a killing spree.

"Then what?" Lu Xingshi asked.

He meant to ask for benefits.

While talking, the Palace Master of Huangjue Palace handed over a secret book.

"So generous, actually gave me the "Huangji Tianshu Xuanlu"?" Lu Xingshi took a look and was also a little surprised.

But then he smiled: "It's just that the Palace Master thinks I'm a young man who has just entered the martial arts world."

"The Mysterious Records of the Imperial Heavenly Book" is equivalent to "The True Art of Immortality" and "The Spiritual Classic of Kunpeng Swallowing the World" in the martial arts inheritance of the Imperial Heavenly Book, and it belongs to the top martial arts.

However, a complete martial arts inheritance not only requires the top-level skills as a guide, but also requires the middle and low-level martial arts that complement each other, not just one book.

"This is the deposit. If you cut off the Wen Dao Hall, the first third of the Imperial Heavenly Book will be given to you, and the remaining two-thirds will be given to you." The old emperor was not vague and gave it as he said.

However, after saying that, he added: "The Imperial Heavenly Book can only be practiced by yourself, and cannot be passed on to others, including descendants and disciples."

"What you gave really moved me." Lu Xingshi really didn't expect that the old emperor would directly give out the martial arts inheritance of the Dasong royal family.

Just to let him be this knife.

"So what's the price?" Lu Xingshi knew that the next step would not be so simple.

Killing is simple. The other party gives a list and Lu Xingshi just needs to do it.

But the problem is that so many people died at once, and they were all officials in the court. This price is not something that the old emperor can successfully bear.

Lu Xingshi saw that the old emperor was paving the way for the prince.

"You will become a traitor and be wanted by the court." The old emperor took a deep breath and said.

"???" Lu Xingshi looked like he was going to take the blame. He thought he was just a knife, but now he has to work.

"What?"

"Your Majesty, don't you know that my reputation as the Golden Crow God General is earned by punching and kicking, and every name is a golden signboard."

The way Lu Xingshi said this, it looked like he was going to turn against me.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xingshi added: "You have to pay more."

"..." ×2

The old emperor and the Palace Master of Huangjue Palace were almost scared, but you actually want to pay more. That's easy to say.

"You make the conditions." The old emperor had already prepared for Lu Xingshi to ask for a sky-high price, and then he would pay the money back.

"I want to see all the inheritances and books of Huangjue Palace and the palace. Of course, I won't read the "Huangji Tianshu". This thing is the final payment." Lu Xingshi deeply understood that as a game system, knowledge is power.

Otherwise, his game character won't even learn the skills.

"Okay." The old emperor agreed. This was not a big deal. Instead, he felt that this matter was stable. Lu Xingshi looked like a martial arts fanatic, much easier to control than his master Murong Xuan.

As for being taken away by Lu Xingshi, it didn't matter. Even the "Huangji Tianshu" was taken out, and he was reluctant to give up this little profit.

They were not worried that Lu Xingshi could threaten the Dasong royal family with the "Huangji Tianshu". No one in the records could practice to perfection except Dasong Taizu.

What's more, Lu Xingshi didn't have the magic weapon Longque. Of course, their royal family and Huangjue Palace didn't have it, so they were powerless.

It just so happened that Lu Xingshi came, so it was just right for Lu Xingshi to cut the Gordian knot.

"Also, my master, Langya Pavilion and Langya Paper cannot be involved." Lu Xingshi said again.

The old emperor was silent for a while, and this time he did not agree quickly, but said: "I can only try my best."

He really didn't have much to do about this matter.

"In the old site of Wuling Sect, how sure are you that Cai Qiuhe died of serious injuries?" The Palace Master of Huangjue Palace asked this abruptly.

It was not a big surprise that they knew about this. The merging of the Five Sects into the Five Spirit Sect might not be a big deal in the martial arts world, but at the court level, there must be corresponding control measures, and they must go to inquire.

So it is not impossible to know the truth.

"If there is no accident, there is an 80% probability." Lu Xingshi did not say 100%.

When he said this, the Palace Master of Huangjue Palace and the old emperor looked at each other.

"If Cai Qiuhe is dead, I can guarantee that Murong Xuan and Langya Pavilion will not be implicated. As for Langya paper, it is too spread out. It is impossible to say that it will not affect it." The old emperor said immediately.

Once Cai Qiuhe died, everything would be easy to talk about.

As for breaking a promise or killing the donkey after it has done its job, they really didn't have this idea. They didn't even look at Lu Xingshi's strength. Not only did he have "Immortality", but he also had Kunlun in his hands. If he really took action, he would definitely disturb them and even put their lives in danger.

"It's a deal, but I need to read the book first, and then I can do it."

"It's not that I want to read it, I just want your attitude and future guarantee." Lu Xingshi said.

"Okay, I will take you there myself." The Palace Master of Huangjue Palace said.

The old emperor is busy with affairs, so it is impossible for him to supervise in person. They are also worried about leaving Lu Xingshi alone, so only the injured Palace Master of Huangjue Palace can come in person.

Others are really not qualified to monitor Lu Xingshi. With Lu Xingshi's strength, if he wants to do something, perhaps only the Palace Master of Huangjue Palace can detect a clue.
