2024-10-29 19:42:56Late that night, Prince An's Manor was still bright. Between the courtyards, there were guards patrolling from time to time.
Li Ye, while holding the Official Seal of the Magistrate of the Chang'an Office, closed his eyes and felt it.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, put down the Official Seal, and sighed internally. "The Luck of a Four-class official can't increase my cultivation to a Level 5 of Qi-refining. From now on, the breakthrough of levels has needed more and more Luck."
He got up and went to his window and looked out at the scene of the manor. With his hands clasped behind his back, he said to himself, "The Luck of the Four-class official only increased my cultivation to the later period of Level 4 Qi-refining. To further enhance my cultivation, I will need extra Luck."
He was thinking about this when Song Jiao suddenly came over to him and told him something about the Black Office.

Back at Prince An's Manor, Li Ye asked Song Jiao to take the little girl to have a bath and get changed into clean clothes. Li Zhen had no objection. After all, a dirty little girl was impolite anywhere. Although it was late, there was no shortage of cooks in Prince An's Manor. So, soon a banquet had been arranged for Li Ye. When Li Ye pulled Li Zhen into his seat, Li Zhen was somewhat dismayed. The banquet was so grand that he felt flattered again. However, Li Zhen did not strike a pose but calmly sat down, humbled and not arrogant. But, in fact, the gift blinds the wise and perverts the words of the righteous. Li Ye didn't need to worry about the atmosphere between them. It became enthusiastic naturally and for Li Ye's questions, Li Zhen also said all he knew. They talked mostly about the classics of Confucianism and Taoism. They talked about the doctrine of self-cultivation and governing the country, instead of the classics

Li Ye did not answer Shangguan Qingcheng's question. Shangguan Qingcheng also knew that she had asked an improper question. So, she asked for forgiveness and then left. In short, there were two reasons why Li Zhen would like to work for Li Ye. One was that Li Ye was worthy of trust, and the other was that he was in a difficult situation and had nowhere to go. Not one of the two reasons could be dispensed with. For Confucian scholars who aspired to pass the civil examination, they were unwilling to give up their goal of becoming an Imperial Scholar. Soon after Shangguan Qingcheng left, Song Jiao came to report on her daily affairs which included the placement of Rui Mengmeng. Song Jiao wanted to take her with her. On the one hand, it would be convenient. After all, Li Zhen was a man and not suitable to take care of a little girl. On the other hand, Song Jiao thought Rui Mengmeng was quite talented and wanted to try to train her so as to see whether she cou
Vanquish Them All Chapter 80 Attending a Banquet
Li Ye had decided to have a meeting with Li Keyong, but he didn't want Li Yan, who was interested in the position of Heir Prince, to follow. Li Ye was worried that if he had a conflict with Li Keyong, Li Yan would not stand by. Even if Li Yan could control his temper, it would be harmful to the overall situation if Li Ye made a feud with Li Keyong so that Li Keyong held a grudge against Li Yan. Li Guochang, whose real name was Zhuxie Chixin, was a native of Shatuo. When the imperial court suppressed the Rebellion of Pang Xun, he and Li Keyong had made great contributions, so he was granted the surname Li by the emperor. Therefore, he had changed his name. After the suppression, Li Guochang was appointed as Zhenwu Commissioner and Li Keyong was appointed as Yunzhong General. Because of the great victory against the grassland tribes in the early stage of the Tang Empire and the policy of conciliation to the grassland tribes, many of them surrendered to the

Although Li Ye and Shangguan Qingcheng came to the Manor on horseback, their speed wasn't fast, because it was not allowed to gallop a horse without reason in Chang'an City. As a vice magistrate of the Chang'an Office, Li Ye, who was in charge of the security of Chang'an City, certainly would not gallop a horse. Therefore, Li Kerang had already arrived before their arrival. The banquet in the hall had already begun. Li Kerang came with anger along the way, but in the face of the high ranking officials and dignitaries, he was unwilling to let others knew that he was bullied in Chang'an City. So he walked toward Li Keyong in a low profile. "Elder brother!" "Don't you say that you can't come?" Li Keyong glanced at Li Kerang who sat down beside him. He and Li Kerang had similar appearances and rough and rigid facial features. But his gaze was sharper than Li Kerang's. Having a glance at Li Kerang, Li Keyong frowned. "Are you injured?"

Li Kerang finally tasted the bitter feeling. He could only keep silent about his suffering and he was discouraged. Needless to say, he could not get revenge for his being beaten today. Although his identity was very exalted and he had Li Guochang support him, could his identity be more exalted than a Grand Prince's? He could only accept his bad luck when he came across the more exalted person who wielded real power. The assistant left minister of the Military Department glanced at Li Kerang. He thought for a while and then he said to Li Kerang in a low voice. "If someone else offended you, he should be domineering. But if the person was Prince An, he should have a reason. If you go out to inquire, you will know that Your Highness Prince An and Duchess of Li have grown up together..." Li Kerang felt blankly for a while and then he understood. He could not help but look at Li Keyong. He opened his mouth and did not say a word finally. He thoug

Unlike the people from the Central Plains, Li Keyong didn't know how to submit to humiliation. He had never submitted to humiliation in his past years, including the early years of defending Yin Mountain with Li Guochang and the years of suppressing the Rebellion of Pang Xun. People in the army were very direct. They fought if they had a disagreement. Whoever won was the leader. What was more, he was a Shatuo who was ferocious and aggressive. Fortunately, Li Keyong wasn't an ordinary person. He came to Chang'an for a very clear purpose and he knew that he should emphasize the overall situation, so he didn't leave immediately. Even if Wu Hongshan's attitude was weak, Li Keyong didn't shout at him. But he was strong and upright in disposition and unwilling to lose. Although he lost face, he didn't intend to retreat. He was thinking about how to defeat Li Ye and save his dignity. "I've heard that you are outstanding among the youths of the Imperial Clan and

After using all his cultivation, every time Li Keyong punched, the wind of his fist made a sound of tearing the air, howling like the wild wind. Spiritual Qi circled around his fist, forming a whirlpool of Spiritual Qi. It really looked like a storm! He punched so fast that most of the officials present could only see countless shadows of his fists and could not see each fist clearly. It was very difficult to defend his fierce attack. Everyone's expression became solemn when they realized that Li Keyong deserved his reputation. However, Li Ye, who stood in front of Li Keyong, had never changed his expression. Facing Li Keyong's fierce attack, he had no intention of defending and he punched one after another. Their punches hit together, causing explosive sounds and Spiritual Qi storms everywhere. The explosive sounds continued and their robes and hair were dancing. They didn't use advanced cultivation methods and just punched directly towards

Shocked and surprised, the officials discussed it widely. But the discussion soon came to an abrupt end. The officials present were all on Wei Baoheng and Wu Hongshan's side, while Li Ye was their political opponent. Exclamation and praise were inappropriate at this moment. They had the suspicion of exalting others and belittling themselves, so they all shut up, even if the fact that Li Ye, as a genius among the young cultivators in Chang'an, had defeated the most talented person in the vassal state, was a great honor for Chang'an. At this time, it wasn't good to continue to discuss it. Li Keyong stared at Li Ye and his expression changed a lot. He felt ashamed and resentful. He seemed to weigh whether to do something else to save his face or not. But eventually, he did nothing. After a while, he cupped his hands towards Li Ye and said, "I lost and you're more powerful than me!" After saying that, Li Keyong cupped his hands tow

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!"

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

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
