Chapter 49 The Power Behind the Scenes

"Who is the power behind the Liu family?"

After watching this life simulation, Pei Xuanjing frowned.

He originally thought that the matter of the Liu family was over, but now it seems that it is not the case. He has been remembered by the people behind the Liu family.

"But why didn't that group of people want to retaliate immediately, but waited for several years?" Pei Xuanjing was puzzled.

It seems that it is necessary to find an opportunity to ask Gu Ji what the origins of the people behind the Liu family are, as long as we take precautions.

It must be said that Pei Xuanjing was a little uncomfortable being targeted by such an unknown force.

After all, before the knife is cut down, it is the most tense and frightening.

[After the simulation, you can choose to keep one of the following rewards. ]

[First, the third level of "Dragon Elephant Art". ]

[Second, ten years of true energy accumulation. ]

[Third, experience in fighting against a third-grade warrior. ]

Pei Xuanjing decisively chose the first one.

After making the choice, he could immediately feel the true qi in his body boiling again, and his muscles, bones and skin membranes seemed to be like sponges, absorbing the true qi flowing in his body quickly and continuing to strengthen.

"No wonder the horizontal martial arts can bring such a strong body." Pei Xuanjing felt the changes in his body and thought to himself.

Originally, he thought that his muscles, bones and skin membranes, which had been nourished and strengthened by the true qi, were perfect enough, but when he really practiced this method of strengthening the body, he found that he had not really practiced it to perfection before.

At the same time, he could feel that his pure physical strength was still increasing. If he needed to rely on the power of true qi before, now he can exert it with just his own body.

After waiting for the true qi to subside, Pei Xuanjing deliberately did a test. Now he can exert more than three elephants with just the strength of his body, and if he has the corresponding martial arts, he can even superimpose it.

Elephants are considered to be the most powerful animals on land and are often used as a representative of strength. It is generally believed that strength exceeding ten thousand pounds can be called the power of an elephant. Similar animals used to describe strength include dragons, tigers, lions, bears, cows, leopards, etc.

This breakthrough brought great power, so Pei Xuanjing had to spend some time to recover his spirit and spirit, and slowly master his new strength.

After all, the body suddenly strengthened so much power, and it took time to get used to it if he wanted to use it perfectly. Otherwise, it would not only be of no help but a burden to him.

At this time, he got the news that Gu Ji was leaving. After his spirit and spirit were restored, he did not start the third life simulation immediately, but went to meet him first.

Government office, back hall.

"Congratulations, Brother Gu, this trip to Tiandu will surely have a bright future." Pei Xuanjing's good words seemed to be thrown out as if they were free.

"Thank you for your help this time, brother. If it weren't for you helping me to seize the rare treasures in the secret land, I would not have this opportunity." Faced with the praise and compliments of a young man like Pei Xuanjing, even Gu Ji couldn't help but be full of emotion. He smiled and bowed.

He invited Pei Xuanjing again, "Would you like to go to Tiandu with me this time?"

Gu Ji wanted to keep a fourth-grade warrior in his early twenties by his side.

Pei Xuanjing shook his head and refused, "I am practicing a technique now, so it is not easy to travel far. Besides, the laws in Tiandu are strict, and I am afraid that my personality is not suitable for it."

He was telling the truth. Tiandu was the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the best place under the feet of the emperor. Not to mention that there were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Tiandu, and there were many masters, the control of warriors was much stricter than other places.

Pei Xuanjing didn't want to go there yet, at least before he broke through to the third-grade realm.

"That's right. It's a pity." Gu Ji shook his head.

He also understood that for many warriors, Tiandu was not a good place. These people were used to being free, and no one was willing to go there unless it was necessary.

Pei Xuanjing took the initiative to mention the purpose of this trip, "This time I came here, I want to ask Brother Gu about some things."

"Oh?" Gu Ji was a little surprised, but said very frankly, "Except for some court secrets, I will tell you everything I know."

Pei Xuanjing nodded, "I want to know what forces are behind the Liu family?"

"Why did you think of asking about this?" Gu Ji frowned and did not answer immediately.

Pei Xuanjing smiled, "This time, the Liu family will be eradicated, so I must know who I have offended and be prepared in my heart. It is better than someone wanting to kill me in the future, and I don’t even know who it is."

Seeing Pei Xuanjing so straightforward, Gu Ji looked around and whispered three words: "White Lotus Sect!"

"It turned out to be them!"

White Lotus Sect!

Pei Xuanjing's pupils shrank. He didn't expect that the force behind the Liu family was the White Lotus Sect.

This also explains why the Liu family was able to take the opportunity to transfer Gu Ji away in one of his simulations. It also explains why Gu Ji, although he was afraid, dared to eliminate the power of the Liu family when he had a reason.

You know, even though Pei Xuanjing was born in a small town in a border county, he was well-known for the name of the White Lotus Sect.

The White Lotus Sect, according to legend, originated in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. It is neither Buddhist nor Taoist, but it is both Buddhist and Taoist. Some sects have close relations with the court, while others are branches that insist on rebellion. Their ideas are varied and their demands are also bizarre.

However, there is no doubt that after thousands of years of development, there are countless branches and sects, which can be said to be deeply rooted and powerful.

It can even be said that the Taizu of the dynasty had a close relationship with the White Lotus Sect when he was in a humble position, but after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, he personally ordered the White Lotus Sect to be banned.

However, even so, the White Lotus Sect was banned and recognized by successive Ming emperors, jumping back and forth.

Therefore, even the officials of the Ming government have different attitudes towards the White Lotus Sect.

"But I don't know which branch it is." Gu Ji shook his head and said.

He only knew that the White Lotus Sect supported the Liu family, but he didn't know which branch it was.

Pei Xuanjing nodded. He also knew that the White Lotus Sect had many branches, and each branch had entanglements and struggles with each other. Not to mention him as an outsider, even some people who belonged to the White Lotus Sect sometimes couldn't tell which forces they belonged to.

However, since he knew who the opponent was, he was a little prepared in his heart so that he would not be caught off guard.
