Chapter 142: Diamond Bodhi

his news needs no further confirmation With such merit, he will undoubtedly be appointed as a national pillar by His Majesty.""Oh well, if I had followed General Li back then, I guess I could be a mil..."Beep, mission complete: system delivery successful, reward: one diamond Buddha statue!"

On the street, Zhang Liyang walked towards the Ministry of War while checking the system's rewards.

This time the system mission reward was very little, only one Golden Bodhi fruit, but it made Zhang Liyang's eyes full of joy.

King Kong Bodhi, one of the spirit creatures of the mountains and seas, can make the body tainted with a trace of King Kong's nature after being taken!

If Zhang Liyang were to take this Vajra Bodhi seed to the doorstep of Vajra Temple, I reckon that group of compassionate people would be driven mad with murderous intent!

"Master, are you alright"

At the gate of the Ministry of War, when Guan Fengsi saw Zhang Liyang covered in blood, he quickly walked over.

"It's fine." Zhang Liyang waved his hand and looked at Guan Fengsi, "Are you injured"

"It's just a minor injury, nothing serious."

"Hmm." Zhang Liyang nodded and then smiled, "You've done well. Of course there will be rewards for doing a good job."

Zhang Liyang, while speaking, took out several silver ingots from his bosom. “Here are 200,000 taels of silver. You can distribute them later.”

"Master, this is too much..."

"Well, I don't know if there are many or not. Just take it."

Seeing Zhang Liyang's insistence, Guan Fengsi took the silver ticket with both hands, overjoyed.

Twenty thousand taels of silver notes, they shared among themselves, each person had over 20,000 taels!

Over 20,000 taels of silver is enough for an ordinary family to live comfortably for a lifetime!

It's not that Zhang Liyang is generous, but this mission is extremely dangerous for Guan Fengsi and others.

From the very beginning, Zhang Liyang made He Fei disguise himself as He Houde and then confronted He Houde directly, telling him to choose between trusting those behind him or trusting the Great Qi Emperor.

He Houde naturally knew who to choose, after all, along the way He Houde had seen with his own eyes how Zhang Liyang had killed each assassin one by one!

Someone who's already trying to kill you, how could you possibly trust them!

Then Zhang Liyang took He Fei disguised as He Houdé, while Guan Fengsi and others took the real He Houdé and split into two groups to head towards the imperial city.

The plot was very clumsy, many people could see through it, as a result, many people ran directly to Zhang Liyang's side. Everyone believed that Guan Fengsi and others were just bait thrown out.

Of course, on this journey, not everyone has been cooperative with Guan Fengsi. However, following Zhang Liyang's instructions, Guan Fengsi chose not to resort to violence but instead allowed the opposing party to conduct a thorough search openly and honestly.

With He Houde's cooperation, almost everyone confirmed their inner thoughts: Guan Fengsi was the bait!

So when He Houde arrived at the Ministry of War gate led by Guan Fengsi and his men, nearly everyone on the street gritted their teeth in anger!

"Well done."

A voice came from behind, and Zhang Liyang turned to see Yue Changping walking over.

"I have met Lord Yue."

"Hmm." Looking at Zhang Liyang, covered in blood, Yue Changping appeared calm on the surface, but his heart was extremely turbulent.

One night's struggle, it seems only Zhang Liyang with many obstructionists, but secretly many people are witnessing all this.

A eunuch from the Second Ring Qi Meridian realm entered the Imperial City alone. He single-handedly killed 37 people who stood in his way, including thirteen at the Second Ring Qi Meridian realm and twenty-four at the Second Ring Eight Meridians realm. The only survivor was a person at the Second Ring Xiantian realm!

Among these people, some were unknown, while others had already gained fame in the martial arts world. However, they are now all reduced to bones. Only one eunuch stepped over their bones and walked to the forefront!

"Let's go wash the blood off our bodies first."

"Grandparents will probably be very busy these two days, so let's wait a few days."

"Don't worry, Fifth Prince won't bother you anymore."

Yue Changping led Zhang Liyang toward the palace, talking non-stop along the way.

"Thanks to our ancestors, thanks to the elders!"

"Don't thank me for anything." Yue Changping stopped at the entrance of Yu Qing Palace. "This is what you earned through your own hard work. You don't need to thank anyone except our ancestors."

"I'll have someone bring you medicine shortly." Yue Changping turned and left, only pausing his steps slightly. "From now on, don't call me 'Master.' Let's just be equals."

"Brother Yue, walk slowly."

Hearing the words from behind, Yue Changping's lips twitched slightly upwards.

Before, Zhang Liyang addressed Yue Changping as "sir," which Yue Changping found perfectly normal. However, given Zhang Liyang's current performance, by the time, Zhang Liyang's status will inevitably be equal to or even surpass Yue Changping's.

This is the time to get closer to Zhang Liyang! What better time than now

Only after Yue Changping left did Zhang Liyang enter Yuqing Palace.

"Please bring me some hot water."

"Yes."

The maids, seeing Zhang Liyang's blood-stained appearance, turned pale with fright. However, they dared not disobey his orders and could only tremble as they carried bucket after bucket of hot water into the room.

Because of the theft at Yuqing Palace last time, Zhang Liyang had thoroughly cleaned out all the eunuchs within Yuqing Palace, leaving only female palace attendants.

Although these maids couldn't do heavy work, the entire Yuanqing Palace wasn't very busy anyway. These few maids were enough to take care of daily chores. Having Zhang Liyang warm up water was already considered a rare heavy task.

Glug glug~

As his whole body submerged in the warm water, Zhang Liyang felt a tingling sensation from his wound. Instead of pain, he surprisingly felt a sense of relaxation unlike anything he'd ever experienced before.

Everyone saw Zhang Liyang's prowess and ruthlessness, and they also saw his meteoric rise after this. However, no one had ever considered what would happen to Zhang Liyang if this mission failed.

Only when the water temperature gradually became icy cold did Zhang Liyang slowly raise his head from the water.

Looking at the pale, soaked wound, Zhang Liyang picked up the medicine delivered by the palace maid and applied it to the wound.

Feeling the chill coming from the wound, Zhang Liyang put on his clothes and went straight to his room to gradually...

A faint golden light flickered within the room, and a subtle sandalwood fragrance hung in the air, as if one had stepped into a Buddhist temple. Even the sound of chanting faintly reaching one's ears brought a sense of serenity to the soul.

This is the system reward's Golden Bodhi, a top-grade spiritual herb from the Shan Hai Realm, almost at the same level as the original Nine-Leaf Meridian Opening Pill!

This Vajra Bodhi seed, if placed in a Diamond Monastery, would certainly be enshrined and never consumed. But in Zhang Liyang's hands, this Vajra Bodhi seed is meant to be eaten!

Holding the Vajra Bodhi in his hand, Zhang Liyang admired it for a moment before swallowing it whole.

The Vajra Bodhi entered immediately, transforming into a faint golden light that flowed into Zhang Liyang's abdomen. Afterward, it transformed into a faint golden light point before his eyes. Under the hazy glow, it seemed like a Vajra Buddha was seated within Zhang Liyang.

Between the flashes of light, the Buddha gradually grew larger until it was the same size as Zhang Liyang. Then, this Buddha of light slowly sank into the depths of Zhang Liyang's body!ompared to Zhang Liyang, Du Bi seemed indifferent. After all, he had already left the imperial city; it didn't matter when they reached Feilong City. As for Mu Yinghua, she was now completely immersed...
