Li Honghan said: "You are old! Your mind is no longer working. Xichuan is getting worse and worse in your hands, and it is gradually declining. You still occupy power and act arbitrarily. Do you want to lead all of us into an abyss of eternal destruction?"
Li Tianheng said angrily: "You rebellious and unfilial thing, I should have seen that you are ambitious."
Li Honghan said coldly: "I'm not stupid enough to die with you!" He took a step forward, and powerful murderous intent was pressed towards Li Tianheng from all directions.
Li Tianheng's expression changed. He had never thought that his son's martial arts would reach such a level. The previous fights had shocked him. Li Tianheng felt unprecedented fear in his heart. Did this kid want to kill his father? He He raised his sword and pointed it at Li Honghan and said: "Do you think you can make me surrender by doing this? Do you think the soldiers of Xichuan will obey you?"
Li Honghan said: "Hand over the Tiger Talisman Seal Letter and announce to everyone that you will give way to me!"
Li Tianheng said angrily: "Daydreaming!"
Dang! There was another eardrum-piercing collision, and Li Tianheng was once again shocked and staggered back. A burst of sadness surged in his heart. Maybe his son was right, he was old after all.
Li Honghan looked at his father coldly. He knew clearly that it was not his father who was getting weaker, but that he was getting stronger rapidly. He already had the ability to take charge of his own affairs. He could lead Xichuan out of the predicament. He looked at his father quietly and said, One sentence: "If you can't bear it, I'll do it!"
Li Tianheng glared at Li Honghan and said: "You traitor, put down your weapon now, and I will spare your life!"
Li Honghan said: "What can you do to me now?"
Li Tianheng sighed and dropped the sword tip in his hand. He nodded and said: "It's evil! It's over now. I'll give it to you..." He stretched out his hand and touched it in his arms, then threw something towards Li Honghan. After the object was taken away, it exploded, with a loud bang, smoke filled the air, and a pink mist enveloped the surrounding area.
It was too late for Li Honghan to hold his breath. He smelled a sweet smell, and his body suddenly felt weak and weak. He could not even hold the sword, and the long sword fell to the ground with a clang.
When the smoke dissipated, Li Tianheng's cold and heartless face gradually became clear. He slowly walked towards Li Honghan, looking at this flesh and blood, his eyes full of disappointment and anger.
Li Honghan said: "Dad...you...you actually poisoned me..."
Li Tianheng sneered: "Do you think your wings are hard enough? Enough to support the entire Xichuan? Haha...Have I ever taught you? For a true king, the most important thing is not martial arts, but here!" He He pointed at his head, and then kicked Li Honghan hard in the abdomen. The kick made Li Honghan bend down, clutching his stomach, and let out a muffled grunt of pain.
Li Tianheng said: "Mr. Zhang is right. You have no ability to inherit the family business. You are not even worthy of being my son!" He kicked Li Honghan again and made Li Honghan roll out.
Li Honghan said in a trembling voice: "Dad...Dad, please spare my life...I...I never thought of killing you..."
"Never thought about it? Do you think I can't feel your murderous intention just now? What's the use of leaving a rebellious beast like you alive?" He slowly raised the sword.
The cold sword light shone on Li Honghan's eyes, making his liver and gallbladder tremble. He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Master..."
Li Tianheng said disdainfully: "I thought you were so brave that you were so scared that you didn't even recognize your own father!"
A sinister voice sounded outside the door: "He didn't call you, but called me!" The first half of the sentence was still outside the door, but the second half of the voice came from behind Li Tianheng. Li Tianheng only saw one
Shadow, he turned his head hurriedly. Before he could see the other person's figure clearly, he had already received a heavy blow to the abdomen. His body flew out upside down, hit the wall, and then fell to the ground again.
The long sword also flew out of his hand, and the sword edge went straight to Li Honghan's throat.
Li Honghan clearly saw the sword thrust coming, but his hands and feet were so weak after being poisoned that he was unable to avoid it. He screamed loudly in fear.
A withered palm grabbed the sword's edge before it stabbed him, and then handed the sword's hilt to him. Li Honghan held the sword's hilt and stood up slowly. Before he could make a decision in his heart, the withered palm
With a gentle tap on his shoulder, Li Honghan rushed forward uncontrollably, and poof! The sword in his hand penetrated deeply into Li Tianheng's chest.
Li Tianheng's eyes widened and he looked at his son in astonishment, his eyes full of unwillingness and shock. Li Honghan's expression was equally surprised. He was still hesitating whether to take action just now? After all, this was his father.
The insidious voice sounded behind him again: "If you want to become a true king, you need to cut off the seven emotions and six desires. If you don't kill him, he will kill you. As a teacher, I can only help you get here. Where to go, you can do it yourself...
"The figure has drifted away.
Li Tianheng held the blade of the sword with both hands. His palm was cut by the blade, and blood flowed down. He looked at his son, and in a trance, he seemed to see him growing from swaddling clothes to a toddler. The corners of Li Tianheng's lips showed a hint of
smile.
Li Honghan was sweating profusely and murmured: "I don't want to...I don't want to..."
"Beast...you...will regret it..." Li Tianheng finished speaking this sentence with difficulty, and his head slowly dropped. His body was still standing there, unyielding.
Li Honghan let go of his sword, and he felt his hands and feet were sore again. When he was about to search for the antidote from his father's arms, he heard the rapid and chaotic footsteps outside. Li Honghan shouted with a cry: "Catch the assassin, catch the assassin!"
"
Yang Haoran led the warriors and rushed in. Everyone was shocked when they saw the scene in front of them.
Li Honghan's face was filled with tears: "Catch the assassin quickly... He killed my father... and escaped..."
Yang Haoran hugged Li Honghan's body and said loudly: "Young Marshal, we saw it. It was the gardener. He just escaped from here and killed two of our guards."
Li Honghan's panic-stricken heart just now felt a little calmer. It was probably the master who was spreading suspicion outside. Yes, it was him who killed his father. If he hadn't pushed him, he might not have stabbed the sword into his father's heart with his own hands.
Li Honghan said: "I'm poisoned... I'm poisoned..."
Yang Haoran said: "Young Marshal, don't panic, I will ask someone to treat you right away."
The situation in Yunyang gradually stabilized, and the Yunyang soldiers led by Yuan Qingshan clearly accepted their current fate. This was not only because they were extremely disappointed with Dakang and Su Yuchi's previous actions, but also because Hu Xiaotian's ability to win over people's hearts was indeed very clever.
When Hu Xiaotian was about to return to Dongliang County, news of Li Tianheng's death suddenly came from Xichuan.
The person who first brought him the news was Meng Guangxiong, the leader of the Xiezhou branch of the Beggar Clan. The Beggar Clan has always been responsible for collecting intelligence from various places. Meng Guangxiong was an old acquaintance of Hu Xiaotian and a leader among the younger generation of the Beggar Clan.
Hu Xiaotian valued him very much.
Meng Guangxiong had been staying in Dayong temporarily to take charge of the reorganization of the Jiangbei branch of the Beggar Clan. He was not allowed to return to Xichuan until a month ago. However, he heard the news of Li Tianheng's murder while passing through Yunyang, so he reported the news to Hu Xiaotian as soon as possible.
When Hu Xiaotian heard the news, he felt incredible. Li Tianheng's death at this time would only aggravate the chaos in Xichuan. He first questioned the authenticity of this matter: "Guang Xiong, is this serious?"
Meng Guangxiong said: "It is absolutely true. It is said that Li Tianheng was killed by Dakang assassins, and his son Li Honghan was also injured. Now Li Honghan has been elected as the new commander by everyone."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It is right for a son to inherit his father's legacy, but in this case, wouldn't Xichuan become even more chaotic?"
Meng Guangxiong said: "I came here to say that I have to rush back now. I have to settle my brothers before this battle starts." Dakang has already assembled a large army at the southeastern border of Xichuan, making it clear that he will take advantage of this opportunity.
When Xichuan was in internal chaos, it dealt a heavy blow to seize the territory it had lost in the past.
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's not in a hurry. It won't be too late to leave tomorrow. Although Dakang has stationed troops in the southwest, it has still stood still. Li Tianheng is indecisive, but his son Li Honghan is even more narrow-minded. I think Xichuan will definitely be in trouble in Li Honghan's hands."
Even worse, those soldiers may not be convinced by Li Honghan."
Meng Guangxiong said: "Although I say this, I still feel uneasy after all."
Hu Xiaotian said: "It's already night, it's not too late to leave tomorrow. We brothers haven't seen each other for so long, why don't we have a meal before leaving."
It was hard to refuse the hospitality, so Meng Guangxiong had no choice but to agree.
When Hu Xiaotian asked people to prepare a banquet, someone announced that the Dakang envoy had arrived.
Hu Xiaotian secretly thought that since he captured Yunyang, there was news that Dakang would reward him, but until now he has not seen the imperial edict or reward. After all, Kangdu and Yunyang are far apart to the east and west, and the envoys arrived here
It also takes a while.
There was only one envoy coming this time, and to Hu Xiaotian's surprise, the person who came was Murong Zhan, the commander of the Imperial Guards.
Murong Zhan was still as cold as before, with white hair as white as frost and an expressionless face.
Hu Xiaotian greeted him with a smile on his face: "Who do I think you are? It turns out to be Commander Murong. If you are not guarding the emperor in Kangdu, why did you come to this remote town of Yunyang?"
Murong Zhan said coldly: "As a minister of Dakang, is there anything wrong with me coming to the land of Dakang?"
Hu Xiaotian chuckled: "Commander Murong came just in time. I'm hosting a banquet tonight for my old friend, and Commander Murong happened to join us at the table." His words clearly contained contempt for Murong Zhan. Murong Zhan was not angry at all.
, handed a letter to Hu Xiaotian and said: "Your Majesty, Your Highness the Princess entrusted me to give you a letter! Please read it personally!"
