Chapter 143 An Unexpected Crisis
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56There was nothing to do after dinner, so everyone chatted around the bonfire for a while, then started meditating and doing breathing exercises on their own. Wei Xiaozhuang could already stand up and walk around, but he still could not control his Spiritual Qi at will. It might take two more days for him to recover fully.
Su Emei volunteered to stay up, needing to be alert for wild beasts or bandits around and add more firewood if the fire went out. Li Ye did not think too much about it, and was happy to save the effort of setting up defence barriers. He believed the most important rule of survival in the Jianghu was to stay low-profile and hide one's true strength, just like how one should not show off one's wealth in public.
Li Ye did not need to do any breathing exercise, he was only taking the time to contemplate the situation in Qing Prefecture while sitting still.
As the center of Pinglu and the commissioner's crucial prefecture, Qing

At about 50 meters above the ground, she could even see the light from a village very far away. The scenery in the wilderness at night was not as mesmerizing as the cities because there was much less light around. It also was not beautiful, but one would still be captured by its unique serenity. Su Emei could not help feeling her heart beating much faster. She turned around in shock and almost knocked into someone's face. Since the two of them were extremely close, she could even see his long eyelashes clearly. Feeling taken aback, she pulled her face away and saw a face that was as fair as a scholar's. It was Li Ye's face! His face was calm and collected, just like a deep lake without any waves on the surface. The cold moonlight splashed onto his face like a thin layer of frost, making him look grimmer than usual. Su Emei almost could not believe what she was seeing. "His

As someone who could never stay idle, Wei Xiaozhuang could not stop talking once he started a conversation. Looking troubled and upset, he sighed like a wise old man and said, "Why are there so many conflicts in this world? Trouble already found us before we even made any enemies! In fact, neither of us wanted to leave the mountain, there's just no fun in going on this trip. It's great for me to just train on the mountain without any distractions, and we always have hunters visiting us with half bottles of wine from time to time. We would just sit around one table to enjoy some simple dishes and a couple of shots while listening to the hunters' brave stories of fighting against wild beasts—Um, actually that's just what our master told us. He's even more talkative than me, and he likes to brag all the time. We are both bored of listening to his so-called true stories of experiencing the Jianghu with great ease. He always mentions that he only met one worthy opponent in the entire wor

"This is Qing City? Those fences are really tall!" Wei Xiaozhuang exclaimed as he saw the city walls almost reaching up to the sky. His voice was filled with awe and disbelief. Li Ye laughed and said, "This is called the city wall." "Of course, that's what I meant. My master told me about it." Wei Xiaozhuang answered in all seriousness, acting as if he had only made a slip-up. He continued, "But it's not as tall as he once claimed it to be. He said there's a city wall as tall as a mountain, but I say he was definitely making that up." Li Ye smiled at his reply. As one of the prefectures in Pinglu, Qing Prefecture had very tall city walls. However, it still could not compare to Chang'an, so Li Ye did not feel so amazed. When the three of them entered the city with the carriage, the sergeant guarding the city gate carried out a thorough search of the carriage. It was not because the security in Qing Prefecture was tight these day
Vanquish Them All Chapter 147 The Grand Plan of the Penglai Sect
When Li Ye heard that there had been someone providing financial aid to the temple on Boji Mountain, he thought the person would be so well-to-do that he could easily ensure sufficient food and clothing supply in the temple. He did not believe that the old master would have to wear his only Taoist robe full of patches. Having seen Cui Keli's own living conditions, however, Li Ye realized for someone who had been living a secluded life on his own, it was already impressive that he was able to aid the temple aside from being able to afford his own needs. Li Ye left the desk and sat down on a chair. Cui Keli sat down as well. He first asked Su Emei and Wei Xiaozhuang about their master and the temple, then Su Emei brought up the reason for their visit. Cui Keli said, "I'm truly sorry that I had to ask for your help. Just a few days ago, the Penglai sect sent out invitations to many powers in Pinglu to visit Penglai Island. It was said that the

"Xiaoman, come here." Li Ye waved at the big dog in the yard, yet it simply looked at him and turned back indifferently. Li Ye felt a little awkward. Just as he was about to chase after it, Xiaoman already started running away as fast as a leopard. "Xiaoman, come here." Xiaoman was already outside the fence barking at Li Ye fiercely until that sweet and clear voice attracted its attention. It barked cheerfully and ran into Su Emei's arms immediately, shaking its tail and sticking out its tongue, acting rather friendly. Su Emei squatted down and patted Xiaoman on its head. She smiled gleefully as her beautiful eyes curved into a crescent. Li Ye was rather jealous upon seeing this, so he said to Xiaoman, "You're a female, too. How can you be more interested in a beautiful girl rather than me?" He reached out his hand to pat Xiaoman as he said that, yet he was forced to keep his hand away as Xiaoman tur
Vanquish Them All Chapter 149 The Taste of Home Cooking
Li Ye didn't expect that Cui Keli would have such deep affection for him. But now he understood that if he could help Cui Keli to win the position of the Master of the Cui family, Cui Keli would lead the Cui family to support him to control Pinglu as long as there wouldn't be any big mistakes on this trip to Penglai. In this case, at least one of the four major families of Pinglu would stand by him, which would be much more convenient for Li Ye to subdue the entire Pinglu. After all, the first step was the hardest. Rooting in Qing Prefecture, the Cui family was very familiar with Pinglu and was the absolute local boss. They could help Li Ye a lot in all aspects. With this in mind, Li Ye was more determined to help Cui Keli. When Li Ye and Cui Keli were talking, Su Emei had made the meal ready with the help of Wei Xiaozhuang. The two of them put the dishes on the table and greeted Li Ye and Cui Keli to eat. Su Emei was born beau

After grabbing Li Ye's arm for quite a while, Su Emei was suddenly aware of her impoliteness, so she flushed with embarrassment and retracted her hands immediately. But she was a little slow on the reaction. Li Ye looked at her amusingly and thought that she was sensitive but a little bit inarticulate. She grabbed his arm for quite a while but said nothing. However, it was fine because he didn't like the eloquent women. When she noticed that Li Ye had been staring at her, Su Emei ducked her head much lower and wished to bury it in her breasts, which was really possible because her breasts were very plump. The atmosphere was very embarrassing. When Li Ye tried to break the ice, three people came over the bamboo bridge across the river. A childe in splendid clothes was holding a folding fan, his face full of arrogance and hostility. A servant was bending over. And the last person lifted his chin slightly with his sw
Vanquish Them All Chapter 151 A Waste of Breath
"Father, why have you come out?" After the salute, Cui Keli was worried. Cui Shulin was old. These years, he didn't go out and had been living in seclusion because he didn't want to waste his vitality. For him, every use of the cultivation power meant the consumption of vitality and the reduction of the already few lifetimes. If not, the family affairs wouldn't be handed over to Cui Hucheng to handle. Cui Shulin landed in front of the courtyard and took a glance at everyone. His gaze stopped at Li Ye for a second, and then he withdrew his eyes. This was a kindly old man of vicissitudes. He sighed and said, "I know the cause and effect of today's matter. That's it. Leave now." "Father!" Cui Hucheng's expression changed. "Well?" Cui Shulin looked at Cui Hucheng with majesty. "What else do you think?" "I dare not!" Making contact with Cui Shulin's eyes, Cui Hucheng trembled and immediately ducked his head. Although h

Seeing the steep appearance of the black rhinoceros elite cavalry of the Returning Righteousness Army, Buddha Zi was already very shocked, and when he realized that a large swathe of cultivators were in black, stepping on the rolling yellow sands and rolling towards Yangguan, his eyes were about to stare out.He knew that Dunhuang's Returning Righteousness Army, could possibly support Yangguan, but those 5,000 light cavalry yesterday afternoon were already the limit of the troops he thought Zhang Huaishen could mobilize.The reason why he was so sure of this was because before initiating the Battle of Yangguan, the Sect of Release had already secretly contacted Sohun and said that they would work together inside and outside.Originally, this matter seemed redundant to Buddha Zi, who didn't think that the tiny Yang Guan, with a mere 10,000 generals, could hold back his army of 50,000 cultivators. In Buddha Zi's view, this is completely flat to give Suo Xun a rich an

The remaining sun was like blood, but it spread a layer of golden radiance to the inside and outside of the Yangguan.Off the wall below has been a bloody piece, almost can not see the rammed earth and yellow sand, not to mention the flow of blood in the body, only hanging in the female wall of broken limbs, broken everywhere in the bowels of the intestines, doubly so shocking. With this layer of gold rendering, even showed a few points of holy meaning.It was a pity that the sun set in the twinkling of an eye, and when countless fires appeared inside and outside of the Pass Wall, the bursting aura light clusters, flashing sword aura blade lights, overflowing colorful auras, and countless warriors running and fighting in either bright or dark light, with shadows and shapes like ghosts, set off the dilapidated and majestic Pass City as a ghost city.Li Ye knew the battle wouldn't last much longer.The monk regiment has been killed and wounded more than half, t

The reason why he told Suo Zhang's this, Suo Xun's purpose was clear to gain his wife's understanding and support. After all, Suo Zhang was Zhang Yichao's daughter, and her prestige among the Zhang family members was not low.This is something that Sohun has been doing all along and has basically been confirmed, if not, he wouldn't be telling his wife this right now, but would have imprisoned her instead. To emphasize it again right now as the big event is being unleashed will help to strengthen his wife's morale.Putting on his armor, Sohun came to the council chamber.The dignified subordinates and staff in the residence had already waited for many things, and his close generals in the army, including some of the Guazhou-based Returned Army Provisioners Great Cultivators of the Real Life Realm had also been notified to rush over.Launching a mutiny and mastering the Returning Righteous Army was a major event that Suo Xun had been planning and preparing for

Seeing that the Buddha son had gone berserk, the monks began to attack Yangguan regardless of the casualties, countless cultivators of the high qi practicing stage swooped down to the place where the turquoise blue star feathers were emanating from, and Zhang Huaishen went to work with arranging for the good fighters in the Returning Righteousness Army to start a battle-within-a-battle with the opposing side around the magic weapon bed and crossbow formations after he had reported a word to Li Ye."The magic weapon bed crossbow is indeed an unrivaled weapon in the sand, if the number can be doubled, the range will be able to cross-cover all the open space in front of the pass, and as far as defending the city is concerned, the Tang army can be invincible. This kind of artifact, is really unbelievable!" Chu Nanhuai was overwhelmed with emotion.This statement of his kept the crowd nodding.Li Ye, however, did not comment.No matter what kind of world, the impr

Seeing Zhang Huaishen and the great cultivators behind him, the Ming King immediately changed his face and screamed out in a dark voice, all of a sudden his fighting spirit was completely gone and he drew himself up and was about to fly away, while at the same time shouting sharply to the other Vajra Realm great cultivators, "Stop him!"Li Ye would not let him have his way, activating his Step by Step Sword Style to cut down the several Vajra Realm members in his way, and unfolding his stance to hurriedly chase after the Ming King.Some of the surrounding Vajra Realms were confronted head-on by Zhang Huai Shen and the others, and had no choice but to catch and fight with them, while the other part hurriedly chased after Li Ye from the two flanks in order to cope with the Ming King.Seeing that there were still two Vajra Realm high ranks in front of him blocking the way, and that the Ming King was fleeing so fast that he was about to arrive behind the Monk Corps For

Li Ye's aura had been consumed so much that he was left with 30% to 40% of it, and if the Sect of Release was ruthless, he would only have enough to sustain a battle.But the truth was, he couldn't spell out all of his aura, or else there wouldn't even be any room for him to get away.The situation was already very difficult at this point, and Li Ye was still about to face the situation of being at the end of his rope no matter how much he saved.Thinking about it, the next battle could only focus on relying on the power of the magic weapon bed crossbow.With this in mind, he called Peng Zushan over and asked him if he could further refine the use of the magic weapon bed crossbow to make it more useful.Peng Zushan said bitterly, "Your Highness, not to mention boosting the power of the magecraft bed crossbows, it's good that they can still be used in the next battle. In this battle just now, two of the ten mana bed crossbows broke, one was destroyed by

Quantitatively speaking, the deaths and injuries of thousands of monk soldiers did not have an essential impact on the monk corps, at least the white sea of them running towards the Yang Pass wall once again was still so turbulent and surging that they could not be seen at a glance.Between battles, Peng Zushan ran up to Li Ye, red-faced and stammering, and asked if King An could repel a few more attacks from the thief vultures if he had the chance, so that they could do a few more siege impacts, and the magical weapon bed crossbows on the barrier wall, and the various magical weapon bows that they had modified, would be able to play a greater role.Because the magic weapon bed crossbow had just been equipped, their previous estimation of the power and range of the bow was inadequate, the placement was flawed, and there were shortcomings in the crossbow's cross-coverage, leaving room for improvement in the lethality inflicted on large-scale siege armies.Now after
Vanquish Them All Chapter 716 The Might of King An
As soon as the sword style was activated, Li Ye's figure disappeared into thin air, and the thirty-odd Vajra Realm members simultaneously felt a chill go straight to their heads, as if they were falling into an abyss. That was the sign of extreme danger descending, and they couldn't help but all change their colors drastically.The leader of the monks just roared "disperse", just to see in front of the companions of several people neck blood spray, round head spinning flying into mid-air, no matter how hard the following words, can not say a word.Suddenly he found his vision spinning in the sky, as towering towers, crumbling walls, tidal waves of monks, blue skies, and even a white-gold sun slipped past his eyes one after another. Finally his sight returned to his companions, and he saw that they were looking at him in the same way that he had looked at the monks whose heads were suddenly flying across the room.Steeply, he noticed that a headless body that was be
Vanquish Them All Chapter 715 The War
The siege began suddenly, 50,000 monks and soldiers holding Zen staffs, dharma swords, shields and other blades and weapons, the rising tide of the sea like a violent sweep towards the pass; the siege began logically, because they had gathered outside the pass for a long enough time, and the generals and soldiers of the army of the Returning Righteousness at the head of the pass had long since finished preparing for the battle.Long days of winter sunshine, the four fields of sunshine, rolling smoke and dust at the feet of the monks and soldiers who could not see the edge of the sea, wave after wave tumbling up, this is the yellow sea of mud and sand, without half an exaggeration.The gateway trembled, a fine dust swirled up half an inch from the rammed earth walls, and a wisp of fine sand poured down.In the trembling is not only the Yangguan, the land outside the same, neat footsteps over the sound of war drums, as if a burst of thunder, Wood a face will be throu
