Before he finished his words, the Spiritual Qi illuminated the dense lines on the sword blade.
Luke Sword had belonged to the emperor formerly. So the pattern carved was the dragon's chant to the ninth heaven. Li Ye could not light all the lines when he used Luke Sword before, but now his cultivation had reached the half-step Foundation-building Stage, and the Dragon Qi had been half solidified, which meant he could just make the dragon shape.
"You were born a peasant, and yet you call yourself the emperor. But you don't serve the people and the heavens and earth will not allow that! I will do the heavens' bidding and show you what respect looks like!"
Li Ye floated in the air, and his sword was like a burning fire. He lifted his sword over his head and a ray of green light went straight through the sky. Suddenly, wind was blowing heavily and clouds were gathering in the sky. The Spiritual Qi in all directions gathered, forming a huge vortex
The army of the Qi Empire had finally been defeated by the Pinglu Army. Except for the few who died in the battle, the rest of them either fled or surrendered. But the battle continued for most of the day. After all, it was a battle comprising of hundreds of thousands of troops. During the follow-up time of the battle, Li Keyong dispatched the elite cavalry of the Yanmen Army to ride fast to Chang'an, from 50 kilometers away. After the Pinglu Army poured into Chang'an from all directions, the Yanmen cavalry followed them into Chang'an, without stopping for a second. In any case, the Yanmen Army had to share the credit of conquering Chang'an. If the Yanmen Army had not held off the main force of Huang Chao's troops, the Pinglu Army would not have a chance to drive straight in to Chang'an. The battle did not end. Even though Huang Chao's troops near Chang'an were defeated, some of Huang Chao's generals still controlled large plac
What came into view was a face that was exquisite beyond words. Any words of praise paled before this type of beauty. It was not only because of its allure, but also because it had a kind of indefinably ethereal, quiet quality. It was as beautiful as the clouds at sunset, and as gossamer as the white clouds in the skies. Seeing this face would give one a feeling of tranquility and peace. After taking off the veil, the Junior Priestess felt shy and blushed deeply. She glanced at Li Ye uneasily. Li Ye's mind was wandering, and obviously, he was dazzled by her beauty. Feeling overjoyed, she smiled slightly, and two charming dimples appeared. She was lovely and coquettish. Fortunately, she stopped smiling, so Li Ye's mind was brought back to the present. In his current state of mind, he was feeling exceedingly stunned, not only because the Junior Priestess was extraordinarily beautiful, but also because they had developed feelings for each other
Zhu Wen, Wang Jian, and Li Maozhen raised their cups, and drank together. Putting down his cup, Li Ye suddenly felt a bit strange. The world was full of coincidences. In the future, Zhu Wen would establish the Liang Empire in the Central Plains, Li Maozhen would become a feudal prince in Fengxiang, and Wang Jian would proclaim himself emperor in Sichuan. But now, they were all gathered together. With all their future achievements, the people here today, would be in charge of half of the country. If Li Keyong had turned up as well, then all the most famous heroes in the late Tang Empire, who rose in the process of the settlement of the Huang Chao Uprising, were all here. Of course, Li Keyong would not meet with Li Ye. He was now drinking alone, in the military camp. The camp was ablaze with lights. Li Keyong was not alone, as Monk Huiming was there, as well. However, Huiming did not drink wine, so Li Keyong felt even more depres
Song Jiao knew that what Li Ye had said was very likely to happen. Now, Li Ye made great achievements, so a lot of people were jealous. If there was a chance for Tian Lingzi to slander Li Ye, he wouldn't give up, to say nothing of others. If the situation really went on as what Li Ye had said, then Tian Lingzi would first accuse Li Ye of rebellion. At that time, Li Ye and the Pinglu Army would be put in danger. Li Yan certainly trusted Li Ye and regarded him as his brother, but Li Yan was also an emperor. Without thinking, Song Jiao knew what kind of situation Li Ye would face at that time. In the worst case, Li Ye would be suspected by the emperor and be envied by the officials. Even if he had great achievements and 100,000 troops, his condition would be the same as Li Xian's previously. Soon, Shangguan Qingcheng arrived. "Your Highness, Shangguan Qingcheng is at your service!" When Shangguan Qingcheng entered, s
The Leader of the Shushan faction, Bai Jingxue, laughed derisively after listening to Xu Pingjing. "You people from Zhongnan Mountain chose Zhu Wen in the hopes of supporting his bid for hegemony. Now, however, Li Ye has taken sole credit for quelling the rebellion, and it's already a given that the emperor will reward him handsomely after returning to Chang'an. His power will be amplified." "I heard that the emperor has already appointed Zhu Wen as Xuanwu commissioner of Bianzhou. Bianzhou is situated at the heart of the Central Plains and connected to Ji River along with Pinglu. Li Ye will be able to launch an expedition to Bianzhou after returning to Pinglu if there's any unexpected movement from Zhu Wen. How will Zhu Wen be able to defend that? Also, this is the matter of Zhongnan Mountain's concern. What does it have to do with us?" Wu Jinling, the leader of Xuelu, and Wang Sanxian, the leader of Dongting Lake, smiled but remained silent after hearin
The abbot of Juexiao Temple raised his sceptre. Li Ye's expression turned stern. The gold rays from the sceptre were too bright and engulfed everything else. They kept emanating from the sceptre, and looked like a flowing stream of light. This was a technique that Li Ye had never seen before. There were many differences between both worlds. Not only did the Buddhists follow a different path of progression, but they also used methods that Li Ye had never witnessed or heard of. However, he did not hesitate, and he did not stop moving. The Luke Sword had already appeared in his hand by now. At this moment, Huineng and the other three monks at Kong Kim Realm charged toward Li Ye from different angles, seemingly to buy time for Fa Yi. Li Ye had noticed acutely that there was a terrifying aura contained with the stream of gold light emanating from the scepter, as if an extremely dangerous being was about to appear in the skies. Various huge Guardi
Li Ye followed the official path. He looked as if he was walking slowly, but in actual fact, he was covering a distance of 90 meters with each step. He shot quickly past the greenery along both sides of the path, and the mountains far away in his horizon continued to retreat. A cool breeze blew across his face, and he felt at peace with himself. Suddenly, Li Ye stopped. In front of him, along the official path, in the plains, and on the hills, stood 18 men in the cool night wind. All of them were monks dressed in white. They looked like spirits that had appeared out of thin air or sculptures that had been erected a long time ago. It did not matter what sort of aura they possessed, however. There could only be one reason for their appearance—to stop Li Ye from traveling further west. Or rather, they were here to send him west to Paradise. Li Ye took a step forward. The dirt on the ground where his fee
When Li Ye went west to Fengxiang, he ordered the Black Office experts to follow suit to act as reinforcements for Shangguan Qingcheng. They would head directly to Chencang to link up with Li Yan. Li Ye was moving at a greater speed then Song Jiao and the Black Office experts, and they were not using the same route. After many years of progress, the Black Office had gathered a huge amount of experts and created its own lethal formation. If Song Jiao directed their attack, they could even deal with experts of the Spiritual Master Realm. It was not much use for them to follow Li Ye, as he was facing opponents of Guardian Deity Realm. They would be of greater use if they linked up with Li Yan instead. Li Ye had expected his path to be fraught with obstacles. If this was true, the Black Office experts would have to protect Li Yan sufficiently until he reached Chencang. This would prevent the Buddhists from realizing any other sinister plots, for example assas
