"Master Zhongliu!"
The Lord of Zii Palace’s heart palpitated, her complexion pale as paper.
At this mont, not only was the Lord of Baihu Palace’s head blasted into shreds, but she also found that the eight-sided Han sword in her hand could no longer slash down.
The sword was hindered by a massive force, it was re inches away from decapitating Li Xuan’s spinal cord, but even with all her might, the lord of Zii Palace couldn’t make the sword budge even an inch closer.
She swiftly turned around, her gaze unbelievably fixed towards the south: "Are you colluding with Li Xuan?"
Li Xuan also had a surprised expression, looking back at his rear.
Within a hundred feet of him, a middle-aged man with refined features and clad in a green shirt slowly walked over from the ice-covered surface. He only has one arm.
His long sleeve fluttered, pronading at ease, as if strolling in his private garden.
"I have never had contact with him, we even considered each other mortal enemies. However, all who defy the heavens in this world are my comrades!"
At this mont, the blood in Master Zhongliu’s eyes suddenly bulged, his pupils filled with endless killing intent: "You have the audacity to question ? What are you trying to do? My heartfelt wish of several hundred years is about to be fulfilled, yet you want to destroy him here? It wasn’t easy for to see hope in him, the hope of reversing the future, yet you want to kill him?"
The voice of Master Zhongliu was cold, almost pausing after every word, each sentence filled with imnse Zhenyuan directly bombarding the heart and lung of both the lord of Zii and Azure Dragon.
The lord of Zii Palace stood wielding her sword, desperately mobilizing her Sword Intent, fighting against Master Zhongliu’s huge montum and the rule of Extre Heaven.
The Lord of Qinglong Palace, Si Shenhua, made hand signs. The technique he deployed surprisingly re-compiled the fragnted head of the lord of Baihu Palace, regrowing a new head.
And the first thing the lord of Baihu Palace did after having his head restored, was to instantly flash into a rainbow and swiftly fly towards the northern sky.
However, he had barely launched himself a hundred feet away when his body suddenly blew up. This ti it was not just his head, his whole body along with his Shenpo, was once again reduced to a mist of blood, with countless droplets of blood splashing in all directions to stain the ice red.
Master Zhongliu simply waved his sleeve as if he was dealing with an ant – nonchalantly and casually.
"White Tiger? You dare!"
The pupils of the lord of Zii Palace were enlarged with anger, her eyes almost bursting.
She channeled her sword intent, actually breaking through Master Zhongliu’s Rule of Extre Heaven at this mont and her sword aura rainbow–like, smashing at Master Zhongliu: "All who defy the heaven’s plan shall perish!"
However, at this instant, the chest of the lord of Zii Palace shattered, her internal organs and a large amount of flesh burst forth.
This caused the lord of Zii Palace’s sword light to stall, and her montum to significantly weaken.
"Exactly! I feel the sa way too, all you lap dogs of Jinque Heaven Palace, are worthy of death!"
At this mont, Master Zhongliu straightly landed a palm strike, directly blasting the lord of Zii Palace’s head into her hollow chest. Then, her entire body was disintegrated into pieces in this instant with a ’bang’.
Next, Master Zhongliu turned his gaze to the Lord of Qinglong Palace. However, ever since the death of White Tiger, he had already used an escape technique to flee. At this mont, his figure had already far escaped to a dense forest ten miles away,
"Wood Escape?" Master Zhongliu sneered: "This technique is indeed extraordinary, it has grasped the truth of God Realm. It’s a pity it’s still a line short of understanding the way of Extre Heaven. Otherwise today, you might really escape from my hands—"
He was just about to take action when he suddenly heard a hateful and frantic roar.
That was Dongfang Liang suspended in mid-air not far away. He and his sword rged into one, enveloping him in tens of thousands of Sword Qi, shooting fiercely at Master Zhongliu.
Master Zhongliu couldn’t help but slightly frown, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
However, when the corner of his eyes caught the sight of Li Xuan, who was pressing his hand on the hilt of the sword, with an intimidating aura, his face relaxed with a heavy ’huh’.
"So, it’s the remnant of Tianshi Palace Master, Gong Nianci. With my temperant, I ought to kill you directly. But as the saying goes, ’Before you strike down a dog, consider its master’. But now you are a dog under the Marquis of Guanjun, so I will spare your life!"
With just a casual wave of his empty left sleeve, all the thousands of Sword Qi from Dongfang Liang crumbled to pieces, and he himself was sent flying several miles away.
Li Xuan watched attentively with his hand on the hilt of his sword. Seeing that Dongfang Liang only had so minor internal injuries and was otherwise fine, he took his gaze off of him.
This guy, although a disciple of his arch-nesis, the TianShi Palace Master, since he now serves under his command, Li Xuan couldn’t refrain from fulfilling his duties as a master.
However, Master Zhongliu’s attack was very asured, with Dongfang Liang not even having a scratch on him,
What amazed Li Xuan was that the ’Jade Qilin’, his current mount, was remarkably restless at this mont.
When the lord of Zii Palace and others planned to assassinate him, this Jade Qilin beca restless, bursting out with heavenly-level Zhenyuan.
After the appearance of Master Zhongliu, the Jade Qilin only cald down for a brief mont before its emotions beca even more rampant, filled with infinite murderous intent driven by extre malice.
It took a great deal of effort for Li Xuan to placate and suppress it.
Fortunately, not long after Dongfang Liang was blasted away, the Jade Qilin finally cald down again. This allowed Li Xuan to finally focus all his attention on dealing with Master Zhongliu.
"Li thanks the Master for the tily help! Though I don’t know exactly what you aim to achieve, I feel deeply grateful. However—"
Li Xuan clenched his fists, his voice halting. "I cannot agree with the term ’comrade’ ntioned by you."
At this mont, Li Xuan had released the Gelong Knife around his waist, but his guard was still up.
He wouldn’t push millions of people into the pit of fire just to change a future event.
Furthermore, he couldn’t forget the White Lotus Rebellion that took place more than half a year ago.
During the chaos caused by the White Lotus Rebellion in the capital, neither Li Xuan nor his friends and family suffered any harm. However, several hundred thousand people were victimized, and the consequences are still seen today.
Master Zhongliu’s destruction of the Temple of Heaven in Jin Dynasty was the root cause of the palace rebellion.
—If the Temple of Heaven had not been damaged, the Zhengtong Emperor wouldn’t have had the slightest chance today!
However, Master Zhongliu just smiled faintly. He didn’t mind the cold and distant words of Li Xuan. On the contrary, he seed even more amiable: "Why should I need your approval? Even Wen Zhonglie did not agree with , but I still consider him a fellow traveler.
Also, I’m quite self-aware. Given my past actions, it’s natural for you, the Marquis of Guanjun, to be angry with . But I can assure you that similar things will not happen again. If there were other choices, why would I need to take such drastic actions?"
He looked at Li Xuan, full of admiration: "The Marquis of Guanjun probably won’t appreciate my justification. But as the saying goes, ’actions speak louder than words.’ In the future, you’ll know what kind of person I am. I seek nothing in this world, my only raison d’etre is to uphold the legitimate succession of China.
Now, you are my hope. I will keep an eye on you. As long as you stick to your beliefs, your principles, and keep moving forward, you will be my friend. Anyone in this world who tries to harm you will beco my enemy. I will remove them at all costs!"
When he finished speaking, his silhouette dispersed into thin air like dust, leaving only his voice lingering in the air.
"Let say thank you once again. The lords of the Jinque Palace are very difficult to destroy. The only thod is to kill them after they violate the rules of the Book of Jinque. If it wasn’t for the Marquis of Guanjun forcing them to break the Heavenly Laws, I wouldn’t be able to kill them, no matter how many tis I tried. They would always revive with the help of the Book of Jinque.
By the way, Marquis, you should hurry to collect the magical instrunts carried by White Tiger and Zii. Don’t let them slip away. Those two fake divine treasures could be my gifts to you as we et. Now that their owners are dead, the immortal treasures are unowned. You can find the ’Heavenly Master’ Zhang Shenye, he can help you erase the lingering spiritual traces within a few years."
At first, Li Xuan was going to pursue Master Zhongliu, but he soon had to shift his attention to the ’Zhenhun Seal’ and the eight-sided Han sword, doing his utmost to suppress the Artifact Spirits within these two fake divine treasures.
Although their owners were killed by Master Zhongliu, the Artifact Spirits inside the fake divine treasures were intact. Before being reshaped and acknowledged by a new master, they would instinctively follow the will of their forr owner.
When Li Xuan had succeeded in sealing them into his Sumi Ring using various talismans, Leng Yurou who stood by his side frowned, saying: "His Rule of Extre Heaven is so strong! Although I can’t tell much, it feels slightly superior to the ’Zhenya’ of Shaofu Yu Jie."
Li Xuan noticed a hint of fear in her eyes.
He thought to himself, ’This is rare. This so-called ’Iceberg Technician’ can actually have such an expression?’
"That’s ’Tianquan’! It can control everything natural or unnatural, sentient and non-sentient beings in the world"
Li Xuan looked at the sky with a complicated expression: "It is said that when Zu Shizhi was refining it, he lted a fragnt of an ancient Heavenly Emperor’s seal into it. Although Master Zhongliu only obtained a very small part of it, it’s strong enough to strike terror into people’s hearts, and it could even confront Dasiming’s Lvling."
After Li Xuan finished speaking, he turned to look beneath the nearby ice: "Your Majesty the Queen, how long do you plan to stay under the ice?"
The person was none other than the Bashe Queen. She crawled out from beneath the ice, then squatted on the ground, looking frustrated: "Leave alone, I’m annoyed!"
She had followed Li Xuan from Beijing to Chengde, and then from Chengde back to Beijing.
She had wanted to play the hero and save Li Xuan in the hopes of winning his love. However, at Chengde, before she could offer her help, Li Xuan had already resolved the crisis with the demon army of several hundred thousand.
Finally, she saw an opportunity here, but it was seized by Master Zhongliu first.
Shaking his head, Li Xuan turned his gaze to Liang Heng.
At this mont, Liang Heng was in an extrely critical situation. Earlier, when he saw Li Xuan being ambushed, he was thrilled, thinking that he might have a chance to survive.
However, when he saw Master Zhongliu appear, all his hopes were completely crushed.
At this mont, the forr Great General, Liang Heng, was completely drained, with his body covered in wounds.
With a cold face, Li Xuan reached out and crushed Liang Heng’s body with heavenly power, then forcibly extracted Liang Heng’s Primordial Spirit, pulling it into the ’Jiuyou Soul Refining Lamp’ in his hand.
