Chapter 464 - 464 370 Let Go and Kill (Must-See Dont Miss)_2

Chapter 464: Chapter 370 Let Go and Kill (Must-See, Don’t Miss)_2 Chapter 464: Chapter 370 Let Go and Kill (Must-See, Don’t Miss)_2 For instance, the Goddess Palace had a good relationship with the Imperial Family of the former Great Chu Dynasty, and over the years, they actually suffered quite a bit of collateral damage, having been targeted by the court.

Speaking of the former Great Chu, Chen Yuan’s interest was piqued, as everything he knew was recorded in books, but much of the information regarding the former Great Chu had been sealed off by the court.

However, he wouldn’t go out of his way to painstakingly consult historical records or specially visit Ascending Immortal Tower to purchase intelligence just because of an interest.

Now that Shangguan Yu brought it up, he naturally wouldn’t let it slip by.

Compared to common news, this scion of an Aristocratic Family clearly knew much more.

Through Shangguan Yu’s words, Chen Yuan indeed heard some unheard-of news, even the kind that could be described as shocking.

According to him, the Grand Ancestor who founded the former Great Chu was the first most powerful person since the Ancient Martial Emperor.

His cultivation astonishingly reached the pinnacle of the Six Realms.

Under his reign, he ended the chaos that had lasted for a span of eight hundred years.

Those eight hundred years were extremely tumultuous, with humans from the states near the Southern Border being reduced to Demon Blood Food and countless devils stealthily seizing the throne, claiming titles and lineages.

While the states near the Northern Barbarians were trampled by foreign races.

Later, a Great Scholar classified and summarized those eight hundred years.

Records of History, The Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

These secrets were merely rumors, rarely recorded by anyone. It was only because of the Shangguan Family’s profound knowledge that they understood some of this. Furthermore, the court and many forces in the Jianghu were intentionally sealing off that segment of the Human Race’s bloody history.

One couldn’t even purchase this intelligence at Ascending Immortal Tower.

And Emperor Chu, from humble beginnings, rose during the chaotic times, sweeping through all directions, securing dominance in the Central Plains, and he was the one who helped the Human Race stand up again, it was he who eradicated the chaos,

He who launched the northern campaign against the foreign races, and also he who struck down the demons.

He established the Great Chu that lasted for eight hundred years, laying the foundation for a world dominated by the Human Race.

Hearing these words coming out of Shangguan Yu’s mouth, Chen Yuan remained silent, yet a massive ripple stirred in his heart. Compared to this, this was truly the makings of a protagonist!

It was also through Shangguan Yu’s words that he finally learned the surname of the Imperial Family of the former Great Chu.

Xiang!

It’s just a pity that now, this surname is taboo for the current dynasty, an untouchable bottom line.

As for the earlier years beyond the eight hundred years of chaos, Shangguan Yu didn’t know much, and the Shangguan Clan also had no records, as the Shangguan family lineage had only been passed down for a few hundred years thus far.

Beyond this, Chen Yuan also learned from him some of the secret history of the current Imperial Sima Family of the Dynasty, which was not much different from what he had previously known and surmised.

Only Shangguan Yu spoke in more detail.

He said that during the time of the former Great Chu, there were Six Great Aristocratic Families in the Jianghu, of which the Sima Family was one, and each family had a strong presence serving as officials in the former dynasty, wielding immense power and influence.

At that time, the former dynasty had already reached the brink of collapse, with power in the court divided, and the conflict between the Jianghu and the court escalated to a head.

Additionally, with the decline of the Imperial Family, this allowed the Sima Family, which had steadily accumulated power over the years, to rise opportunistically.

After the Sima Family ascended the throne, what they guarded against most were these Aristocratic Families. For a hundred years, they had been suppressing them until now when the court’s influence waned, and they had no choice but to adopt a more placatory approach.

All of these messages were recorded by the Shangguan Family.

They might not be completely accurate, but they were definitely more credible than the rumors circulating in the Jianghu.

After a conversation, Chen Yuan gained quite a lot of new information.

He had also come to know some secrets about the current Imperial Family of the Great Jin.

It has to be said that what the Sima Family did was somewhat unscrupulous, but there was also no need to criticize, as in the tumultuous times of the Dynasty, it was the virtuous who should occupy the throne, and it was the Sima Family who rose with the tide.

Only a pity, the Sima Family did not handle things well.

Having established the country for just over two hundred years, there were already signs of an impending chaotic era.

From some of Shangguan Yu’s tone, Chen Yuan could hear some schadenfreude, some eagerness to try.

From the snippet observed, perhaps this was the Shangguan Family’s plan, or even the plan of other Great Aristocratic Families in the Jianghu.

That is to emulate the Sima Family.

If you can be the sovereign, so can I!

Perhaps, the current Jianghu is just an accumulating powder keg, waiting for someone to make a rallying call, and it wouldn’t be surprising if the era of chaos arrived ahead of time.

Chen Yuan…

was also very excited!

The Shangguan siblings didn’t stay at Hidden Soldier Valley for long. After having their meal, they seemed to leave in a bit of a hurry, as he put it himself.

This time no one noticed their visit to Hidden Soldier Valley, but if they stayed too long, it would definitely attract attention.

He wasn’t afraid of any Grandmaster’s assault, but he didn’t wish for his own reasons to cause the Yun Family to take action against Chen Yuan ahead of time.

Chen Yuan understood this quite well.

The Five Great Families might not be of the same branch, but there were certainly entanglements between them. Shangguan Yu was even willing to sacrifice his family’s undercover agents in the Yun Family to get the message to him.

He had been quite generous to him.

After all, this time, he quite exploited Shangguan Yu’s help.

However, some people in the Shangguan Family were clearly not too foolish. Although they didn’t know the specific details, they must have sensed something was amiss, which was why they didn’t let Shangguan Yu get too involved with Chen Yuan.

Of course, they also didn’t want the Yun Family to turn their anger onto the Shangguan Family.

Among the Five Great Families, the Shangguan Clan could only be considered middle to lower rank, while the Yun Family was middle to upper rank. There was a certain gap between them, so why engage in a fight to the death if it wasn’t necessary?

In front of Hidden Soldier Valley’s Mountain Gate, Chen Yuan personally saw them off, watching as the two figures disappeared into the distance.

“Big brother, weren’t you going to introduce us? Why are we rushing off after just a meal?” Shangguan Hong was genuinely confused by Shangguan Yu’s actions.

“A Dan Realm Master has set his sights on Brother Chen. It’s better for us not to occupy too much of his time. If Brother Chen were to come to harm because of me, I would truly be ashamed to face anyone in the future,” he explained.
