Chapter 30: Where the blade points, all the kings kneel
Chapter 31: Wherever the blade points, all the kings will kneel
The royal aura accumulated by King Qi Li Maozhen [the Empress] during her more than ten years of reign has gone as quickly as it came.
But compared to the majesty of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty on Li Xingyun, it was like the breeze blowing gently over a big tree.
Although Li Xingyun originally said that so far, he has only been the emperor of the Tang Dynasty for more than a month, and he doesn't even understand what the emperor really needs to do.
But he has the orthodox bloodline of the Li Tang royal family, and he has experienced many hardships in his previous life.
He doesn't look like a young and immature Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who has just ascended the throne.
As a person who crawled out of the depths of hell, just that calm gaze makes people feel extremely stressed, as if there is a terrifying humanoid beast standing in front of them.
Li Xingyun doesn’t know when he completely changed and became what he is now.
Maybe it was the moment in my previous life when I entered the altar of soldiers, gods and monsters without hesitation and turned into a monster!
As for what the God of War and Monster Altar is...
The Weapon God and Monster Altar is a cruel secret technique of Raojiang. It can forcibly transform a living person into a dead person, losing consciousness and self, and turning it into a pure combat weapon.
What is particularly frightening is that this is not a secret technique with a very low success rate, but a secret technique that can create large quantities of living dead, enough to form an army in a short time.
Although Li Xingyun barely retained his self-awareness with the help of Huayang Acupuncture in his previous life, the moment he entered the altar of soldiers, gods and monsters, he was no longer a living person.
That is, from this moment on.
Li Xingyun understood the cruel reality. He was no longer a human being, he was a ghost.
Fortunately, I am now reborn and can reverse time and space and go back to the past, so that I can be a new person.
"I'm very curious. Logically speaking, it will take at least half an hour for you to get here..." Li Xingyun hesitated.
"Since ancient times, only ministers have waited for the emperor. How could the emperor wait for his ministers? Prince Qi, I don't dare to keep your majesty waiting." Li Maozhen [Empress] said without hesitation.
"It makes sense, but I feel that there must be other reasons why you didn't tell the truth. But all this is not important anymore. The most important thing today is to play this game well."
Li Xingyun held a sunspot in his hand and looked at the chessboard in front of him carefully. After thinking for a while, the chess piece landed in the center of the chessboard, which is the Tianyuan position.
"Your Majesty, it's true that Heizi went first, but losing Tianyuan in the first step is not a good choice." Li Maozhen [Empress] said with a hint of coldness at the corner of her mouth.
"I have no regrets when I make a move. The chess game is undecided. The outcome is still unknown, but I don't regret my decision." Li Xingyun said calmly.
"So, your majesty was taught by a bad handsome man to do such a domineering thing?" Li Maozhen [Empress] said with a hint of questioning in her tone.
Li Xingyun did not answer the question of Li Maozhen [Empress].
He slowly closed his eyes, but opened them again after a few seconds.
"King Qi, do you believe in past and present lives?" Li Xingyun's tone remained calm.
"Your Majesty is talking about Buddhism?" Li Maozhen [Empress] asked doubtfully.
"Haha, it seems that people in the world are really easily deceived, even the current King Qi is no exception." Li Xingyun smiled lightly.
"Deception? Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"
Li Maozhen [Empress]’s hands on her knees were clasped together. At this moment, her slightly sharp nails were inadvertently embedded in the soft palms.
I knew... Li Xingyun, you bastard, you really used the pretext of negotiation to trick me into coming here, trapping me so that I could seize the opportunity to attack Qi State with Fengxiang.
But you can’t think of it. I have already arranged for Jiutian Shengji to garrison the army in advance. A man from Qi Kingdom will never lose to a despicable and shameless person like you.
Unfortunately.
Li Xingyun didn't know the psychological activities of Li Maozhen [the Empress], nor did he know that she had secretly scolded him several times.
Noticing that Li Maozhen [Empress] looked a little ugly, he continued: "It's not interesting, I'm just funny. Every time I talk about past and present lives, the first thing you think of is Buddhism."
"However, the living is in time, and the dead is in harmony. Life is the natural expression of heaven and earth, being a human being is accidental, and death is inevitable."
"Birth is not yours, it is the order of heaven and earth. Life is not yours, it is the order of heaven and earth. Your descendants are not yours, it is the order of heaven and earth."
"Death is inevitable?" Li Maozhen [Empress] sneered.
"Of course, no one can survive." Li Xingyun nodded.
"The bad handsome man has lived for three hundred years, and so far, there is still no sign of dying of old age. Your Majesty, I forgive my stupidity, but please clarify my doubts!" Li Maozhen [Empress] curled her lips slightly.
For more than three hundred years, countless people have been looking forward to the early death of the bad handsome man Yuan Tiangang. Later, when they couldn't defeat him, they could only hope that the bad handsome man would die of old age soon.
But a full three hundred years have passed, and this bad handsome man still shows no sign of dying of old age. Instead, he has endured countless young people who were looking forward to his death.
What is particularly sad is that.
These young men do not refer to the vassal towns and military governors such as King Qi, but to the bad commander Yuan Tiangang and the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to whom the bad guys swore allegiance to the death.
No one wants to have an old monster who has lived for hundreds of years beside them, even the emperors of the Tang Dynasty who stand at the pinnacle of power in the world.
Including the former Li Xingyun, if it weren't for the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang committing suicide, he used his life to prove his loyalty to the Tang Dynasty and the Li Tang royal family.
I am afraid that even if Li Xingyun is reborn, it is unlikely that he will trust a bad person or a bad guy who has lived for three hundred years without dying.
Get to the bottom of it.
It’s nothing more than trust. Who can trust a bad guy?
Trust an old monster who has lived for three hundred years and has never died...
Trust, this two word, is really very heavy.
Except for some stupid people, it is very difficult for ordinary people with a little bit of brains to gain trust, not to mention the emperors who are the emperors of the Tang Dynasty. It is even more difficult for them to trust the people around them.
"King Qi, if you insist on talking like this and trying to argue with me, you will definitely not be able to continue the conversation, and subsequent negotiations will be unnecessary." Li Xingyun's voice sounded a little cold.
Negotiate?
What a nonsense!
This woman was full of anger and knew how to argue with herself. She told her about the nature of heaven and earth, the cycle of death and life, and she had to bring out bad guys to prove that there was something wrong with what she said.
"Very good, I don't think there is anything to talk about. If your Majesty really wants the capital Chang'an, then send troops to fight!" Li Maozhen [Empress] said without fear at all.
"Just fight, King Qi, do you think I don't dare?" Li Xingyun said coldly.
"For decades of resisting the Mobei Dynasty, the men of the Qi Kingdom were never afraid of death. They defended their country and died in battle, and never regretted it. However, they were afraid of the monarch's cowardice and were so cowardly that they ceded territory to preserve their throne."
Li Maozhen [Empress] stretched out her hand with the intention of grabbing Li Xingyun's collar and lifting him up, wanting him to know that she, King Qi, was definitely not a soft persimmon that could be crushed and rounded by him.
But at the next moment, a cold snort sounded.
"Presumptuous!"
A powerful force came from behind Li Xingyun, and after dexterously passing over the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, Li Maozhen [Empress] was forced back.
Li Maozhen [Empress]'s figure was like a piece of tattered rags. She flew backwards uncontrollably, and finally crashed straight into a rockery about five meters high in the yard.
"Boom..." The rockery collapsed and smoke and dust flew everywhere.
The next second.
Bad handsome man Yuan Tiangang knelt down next to Li Xingyun. He was very respectful. Even though he knocked back a great emperor with a palm from the air, there was no hint of arrogance on his face.
This is Yuan Tiangang, this is bad handsome.
He doesn't need any glory or wealth, he only needs a meager trust.
This time Li Xingyun went to Bianzhou to negotiate in person. In addition to Shi Yao, the great secret guard, there was also the unscrupulous commander Yuan Tiangang who was secretly in charge.
It is worth mentioning.
Since Taizong Li Shimin, Li Xingyun is the second emperor of the Tang Dynasty who is willing to trust and accept the secret protection of a bad commander.
For this extremely hard-won trust, bad handsome Yuan Tiangang seemed to be reborn, as if he had returned to the years when he followed Taizong Li Shimin.
His heart, which had been dead for three hundred years, was now burning like a blazing fire, and his whole person was filled with inexhaustible energy.
"Get up." Li Xingyun said softly.
"I will obey your Majesty's orders."
Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang stood next to Li Xingyun, and the air around him seemed to freeze.
He is here.
No one in the world can hurt Li Xingyun, even if all the great masters in the world today swarm him, in the end, they will just leave a pile of corpses.
With a power of up to three hundred years, he has already become a land god. If he wants to die, he can only commit suicide. How can these ordinary people with great heavenly status be compared?
"Bad handsome?"
Li Maozhen [Empress] was covered in dust, her mouth was bleeding, and her internal energy was completely blocked. Although her clothes were not broken, she still looked very embarrassed.
She knew that the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang must be hiding behind the scenes. The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty came here in person, so how could he bring only a secret guard of the emperor with a high-level emperor?
With that palm in the air, even though she reacted quickly and protected her heart and other important parts, she was still forcibly sealed away by an irresistible internal force.
As long as there is this bad guy who has lived for three hundred years, even the most powerful person in the world is just a slightly stronger ant in front of him.
If he does not die, the Tang Dynasty will never be destroyed.
Thinking about this.
Li Maozhen [Empress] really misses Li Xingyun's biological father Zhaozong Li Ye. There is no one around this stupid Emperor of the Tang Dynasty who can beat him. They are all villains who can only flatter others.
I'm afraid a small Heavenly Assassin could kill him if he got up close.
In fact, this is also true.
The Emperor of the Tang Dynasty died at the hands of the five great Yama Lords of the Xuanming Sect. The five great Yama Lords who combined had only a small heavenly power killed Li Xingyun's biological father, Zhaozong Li Ye, the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.
And this is the final fate of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty after forcibly disbanding the bad guys.
Don't talk about the weakening of the country's power. The Tang Dynasty was already in decline, and its demise was only a matter of time.
As long as the bad people are still there and the bad commander Yuan Tiangang is still there, it is impossible for the feudal king and the Jiedushi to conquer the eastern capital Luoyang and completely overthrow the orthodox regime of the Li and Tang royal families.
How to say something.
When someone lies to you and says that the knife in your hand is dangerous, you don't need to consider whether the knife will bite the owner. What you really need to consider is who the tip of the knife is pointing at.
Are you more afraid of the knife in your hand, or are those people more afraid of the knife cutting off their heads?
If you are afraid that the sword will bite the owner, then throw it away, but do not follow the example of Zhaozong Li Ye and throw away the sword directly.
It should be noted that having a knife in your hand and not using it and not having a knife in your hand are completely different things and cannot be confused.
Even if you have a knife in your hand, even if you don’t use it, you will be afraid.
If you don’t have a knife in your hand, you can only let others slaughter you.
There is no big difference between having it and not using it.
If you get hit, it will hurt, and if it hurts, you will remember it.
This time, Li Xingyun decided to trust the sword in his hand that had been passed down for three hundred years.
Wherever the sword points, all the kings will kneel.
......
"Prince Qi, Li Maozhen, you are just a vassal king, but you still dare to act wantonly in front of the emperor. You are a treasonous and unethical person, and you still don't kneel down!"
The words just fell.
Another indescribable terrifying pressure fell from the sky. The terrifying pressure was like the earth falling apart, causing Li Maozhen [Empress] to kneel in front of Li Xingyun uncontrollably.
Just at this time.
The outermost part of the yard, inside a corner.
Shi Yao personally watched the dangerous figure Corpse Ancestor General to prevent this woman from causing any trouble at this time.
As Mrs. Meng, a high-ranking official in the Xuanming Sect, she knew very well that few of the four corpse ancestors were normal. One was decent, one was curious, and one was schizophrenic...
Except for Ming Emperor Zhu Yougui, the only people who seemed to sincerely work for the Xuan Ming Sect were the five Yama Lords who died at the hands of Li Xingyun.
Of course.
This is also the reason why Li Xingyun is willing to leave the Xuanming Sect. After all, this Xuanming Sect is not so much the assassin intelligence organization of the former Daliang, but it is more like being run by bad people.
"Ahem... The bad handsome man who has lived for three hundred years is so powerful. The throne of heaven is like an ant in his hands. He will kneel down whenever he wants. Fortunately, I took the initiative to inform His Majesty of my intention... ahem...
The two women who drugged them."
The Corpse Ancestor general's eyes widened. It was better to meet him than to be famous. It was the first time he saw the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang take action. Really... really, she felt that she could not survive for ten seconds.
In fact, she doesn’t know either.
Does ten seconds count as a compliment to herself? After all, just by facing the bad handsome man, she felt her heart panicking and fearing, and her body couldn't help but want to escape.
As a ghost doctor who can change the hearts of others at will, she understands that this is the body's self-protection mechanism, just like an antelope's first thought when seeing a tiger is to run away.
This is bloodline suppression. This is also the suppression of herbivores by carnivores. Lower creatures face the uncontrollable fear of higher creatures.
At this time, Corpse Ancestor General also felt this similar feeling of antelope, and every part of her body was shouting that she should escape from this place.
Run...run away...you will die...
In the dark.
The Corpse Ancestor general seemed to have heard these words, which made her shiver uncontrollably.
"That was found by bad people, so what does it have to do with you?"
Shi Yao glanced at the Corpse Ancestor General strangely, and paid more attention to Xue Bai on her chest and thighs. It wasn't that she had any strange thoughts about this woman.
The main reason was that she unexpectedly discovered that Li Xingyun's gaze just stayed in these places for a few seconds longer, and she decided to learn how to dress and dress the Corpse Ancestor generals to seduce men.
Her legs are also very white.
At this time.
In the center of the yard, a dozen bad guys were quickly cleaning up the gravel after the rockery was broken. Soon, the yard returned to its previous calm and peaceful state.
"Yuan Tiangang, her internal energy has been blocked by you, and there is no danger anymore. Please step back." Li Xingyun waved his hand casually.
"I will obey your Majesty's orders."
Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang nodded, and then he disappeared, as if he had never existed.
After the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang, the person who made the atmosphere tense and dignified, left, Li Xingyun turned his attention to Li Maozhen [Empress] at this time.
Honestly.
He was a little stunned just now. He directly blocked the internal energy of a great heaven with a palm from the air. Even if he used the Huayang Acupuncture technique, it was not something ordinary people could do.
The reason why he temporarily immobilized the Underworld Emperor Zhu Yougui in the first place was because he used the special technique of Qi Meridian to take advantage of his unpreparedness and managed to immobilize the Underworld Emperor Zhu Yougui in the heavenly position.
Remember, he only froze his body for a short period of time. With his great heaven-level internal strength, Emperor Zhu Yougui of the Underworld could break through the Huayang Acupuncture technique performed with the help of Qi Meridian in a short period of time.
With this blow, Li Xingyun used up all the internal energy in his body to briefly immobilize the Underworld Emperor Zhu Yougui.
But this casual palm of the bad handsome Yuan Tiangang directly blocked the internal energy of Li Maozhen [Empress].
To block the inner strength of the whole body is equivalent to completely losing the power of resistance and directly becoming a lamb to be slaughtered.
The scary thing is.
Bad handsome Yuan Tiangang's palm in the air, his breath steady, was simply a merciless palm.
If he takes action with all his strength, Li Xingyun is worried that Li Maozhen [Empress]'s whole body will explode.
This is not impossible. After living for three hundred years, even a pig will be a monster.
