Chapter 199: Analysis from my brother-in-law, a nationwide hunt!Shadow raised his head slightly and looked at the tall figure of Li Maozhen. It had been many years since they last met, but King Qi seemed to have not been affected by time. He was still as heroic as ever. But is there still a place for you to make a move in this world? The shadow was puzzled and then lowered his head again. Teacher, employee… … Li Maozhen pushed aside a stack of information and said, "Sort out all the information about Li Xingyun for me! No matter how big or small! I want to see where this descendant of Li Tang came from." "Yes." Two shadow guards immediately stepped forward and sorted out pieces of information about Li Xingyun from the wooden boxes. Some were secret letters, some were announcements from Qi Country, and some were news from Huanyinfang. [Li Xingyun, a disciple of the Qinglian swordsman Yang Shuzi, once lived in seclusion in the Sword House of Qingcheng Mountain.] "That Uncle Yang's swordsmanship is just so-so, he is just a third-rate swordsman." Li Maozhen's voice was flat, with a hint of disdain. He never took swordsmen like Yang Shuzi seriously. [Li Xingyun clashed with the Xuanming Sect in Yuzhou City and killed the Black and White Impermanence of the Xuanming Sect. Later, he joined forces with Yuzhou Governor Xu Cun to encircle and suppress the Yuzhou branch of the Xuanming Sect and killed the five Hades of the Xuanming Sect.]
"Yuzhou?" "It's quite interesting. You were able to win over the governor of Yuzhou to help you right after you came out of seclusion. Is this governor of Yuzhou a bad guy, or someone you won over?" Li Maozhen looked through the information from Qi State bit by bit until Li Xingyun appeared in Luoyang for the first time. [Li Xingyun was captured by the Xuanming Sect. Zhu Wen interrogated him in front of the palace, but he was unexpectedly killed by Li Xingyun. The Dark Emperor Zhu Yougui attacked Li Xingyun, but was easily killed by a man who called himself the Bad Leader.] This information made Li Maozhen look a little solemn. Li Xingyun was captured by the Xuanming Sect, but he could take action in the Luoyang Palace? "Something is wrong. Why was there no resistance for Li Xingyun to enter and leave Luoyang? And where was Zhu Youwen when Zhu Yougui was killed? Where were the four corpse ancestors?" Li Maozhen frowned slightly. He was well aware of how powerful the force Zhu Wen belonged to was. But why did everything seem different when it came to Li Xingyun? Why was it so easy? How was Zhu Yougui killed so easily? Surrounded by the imperial guards, he was able to easily kill a top master of the Great Heaven Realm. Who exactly is this bad commander? "Being able to do this shows that Zhu Wen's Liang State is rotten to the core. The Bad People must have invaded the Xuanming Sect, otherwise Li Xingyun would not have had the opportunity to take action at all." Li Maozhen murmured, and then pressed his finger on the words of the bad commander: "Have you found out any information about the Bad Leader? Who is he?" Li Maozhen frowned at the shadow. Ever since he got the news about the Longquan treasure, he ordered his shadow guards to track down the identity and whereabouts of the Bad Leader. Unfortunately, they have not gained anything. Shadow bowed and said, "King Qi, we have been trying to investigate the Cangbing Valley and the Bad People for years, but the Bad People are so powerful that we have no chance to find out. But there is no need to investigate now. Confirmed news has come from Chang'an that the Bad Leader has died." "What? Buliang Shuai is dead. Who killed him?" Li Maozhen frowned. He could easily kill Zhu Yougui, who was at the Great Heavenly Rank. This Buliang Shuai's strength might have reached the Heavenly Rank. Who could kill such a master? "Could it be Zhu Youwen?" Apart from the Ghost King Zhu Youwen, it could be either the old man Li Keyong. Although Zhu Youwen is just a martial arts fanatic, he has a very high talent for martial arts. Because of this, Li Maozhen pays special attention to him. Zhu Youwen is the only martial artist in Li Maozhen's knowledge whose martial arts talent surpasses Li Keyong. He is still so young, and if he is given another ten years, Li Keyong may not be Zhu Youwen's opponent. Yingzi said hurriedly, "It's not the Ghost King. The Ghost King fell into a coma after entering Qianling Mausoleum with Li Xingyun and has not woken up yet. The Bad Leader was killed by a traitor named Li Ying." "What did you say? The Ghost King and Li Xingyun have already been to Qianling Mausoleum? The Ghost King is still in a coma?" The Miaojiang Holy Gu had actually been born. Li Maozhen stood up with a solemn look in his eyes. He looked at the shadow and asked, "Can you tell me, Li Xingyun, did you bring anything special out of Qianling Mausoleum?" Shadow pondered for a moment and then said, "The people from Huanyinfang did mention that Li Xingyun did get a small wooden box after leaving Qianling Mausoleum. Now the wooden box is in the hands of the empress, but Li Xingyun once told the empress not to open the box. Now Li Xingyun should still be in Jin State. According to the time, the latest information about him should be coming."
Just as Shadow finished speaking, a voice of notification came from outside the door. "Report! Secret report from Jin!" "Come in." Li Maozhen shouted in a low voice, and a dusty shadow guard wearing leather armor knelt on one knee and said: "The Jin State and the Liang State have already started a war. Both sides have deployed more than 500,000 troops in Xiangzhou. Li Xingyun appeared in Yunzhou within the Jin State and left safely after killing Jin's general An Yuanxin and Yunzhou Jiedushi Li Kexiu." "Now the Jin State Tongwenguan and the Ministry of War have issued orders to hunt down Li Xingyun. The entire Jin State is in a state of panic." This time, Li Maozhen did not say anything else. Saying anything else would make him look a little stupid. After hearing the news, Li Maozhen fell into a long silence. He knew An Yuanxin, the general of the Jin State. He was a top general of the Jin State of his generation, and his cultivation had also reached the late stage of the Great Heaven Realm. Although he had never fought with An Yuanxin, there were not many such masters in the world, and An Yuanxin was killed by Li Xingyun... Li Maozhen suddenly realized that he seemed to have never cared about Li Xingyun's cultivation. After all, in his eyes, Li Xingyun was just a young brat who had just started out. No matter how talented he was, his cultivation would probably only be at the middle level. But now it seems that he still underestimated this descendant of Li Tang. "What is Li Xingyun's current cultivation level?" Li Maozhen asked slowly after being silent for a long time. The shadow guard who was kneeling on one knee said in a deep voice: "Replying to King Qi, the Great Heaven Realm, the peak!" Li Maozhen stood with his hands behind his back, and after a while he said in a deep voice: "Tomorrow, we will set off to return to Qi State!" ………… Changan. The empress frowned as she reviewed memorials from various places. She missed Li Xingyun's days in Chang'an. At that time, she didn't have to worry about anything and could just play every day. It was nothing like now, when she was miserable like a shrew. Miao Chengtian entered the hall and bowed, saying: "Empress, the Anbu sent a letter saying that Your Highness has successfully rescued Zhang Zifan in Jin State and killed Jin State General An Yuanxin in Yunzhou." "Hurry up and present it to me." The empress took the secret report from the Anbu and frowned slightly, saying, "An Yuanxin, Xingyun was able to kill this man. Where are the corpse ancestors? Did they do it? Why does it say that only the corpse ancestor Ying Gou was guarding him?" Miao Chengtian cupped his hands and said, "Since Your Highness rescued Zhang Zifan, the two corpse ancestors Hou Qing and Hanba have disappeared." "What is this kid doing again?" The empress knew Li Xingyun very well, and the first thing she thought of was that Li Xingyun might be planning something again. The empress snorted and said, "Humph, how can you play so hard when you go deep into the heart of Jin? When he comes back, I will punish him!" Miao Chengtian lowered his eyebrows and said subconsciously: "Your Highness must have great ambitions in Jin State. I don't know when you will return to Chang'an next time." As soon as these words were spoken, the empress frowned, and the word "unhappiness" was clearly written all over her face. Miao Chengtian realized that he had said something wrong, and immediately knelt on one knee and said, "I know I was wrong." "Alas, there is nothing I can do about it." The empress waved her hand and said, "Go down, I'll be alone." Miao Chengtian bowed his head and said, "Yes, I will take my leave." After leaving the hall, Miao Chengtian looked back at the empress who was full of lovesickness and sighed slightly. Before Li Xingyun appeared, when had he ever seen the empress like this? Miao Chengtian then recalled some unpleasant memories and whispered: "Damn Li Xingyun..." …… Chang'an Street.
Soldiers wearing cloth armor and carrying Tang swords on their waists set up porridge stalls, and countless refugees lined up in long queues to receive rice porridge. "Come one by one, line up and don't crowd!" The soldiers shouted loudly to maintain order at the scene. It had been three months since Chang'an was rebuilt. The infrastructure in the city had gradually been restored, and the refugees had built houses for themselves. In just three months, Chang'an was no longer what it was during the war last year. As the population increased by thousands of households, the smell of fireworks would make the whole city bloom with vitality. A figure stood on the top of the high Military Affairs Pavilion, watching this scene, and whispered: "Purple air is coming from the east, and vitality is reappearing..." The Bad Guys were delivering all kinds of information in an orderly manner. One of them stopped in front of the figure and said, "General, we have prepared everything you ordered, but some of the spies have been here for so many years, and it seems that they are no longer under our control." Yuan Tiangang smiled faintly and said, "I have never tried to control them. What controls them is their own desires and the greed of human hearts." The bad man bowed and said, "His Highness is still in Jin State. Marshal, do you think we should inform His Highness?" Yuan Tiangang said calmly: "Send a secret letter to Jin immediately. Although His Highness has a big plan, it is not overbearing enough. Let me help him again." "Yes, Marshal." The bad guy bowed and obeyed the order. Yuan Tiangang dodged and landed in the courtyard behind the Grand Council, where hundreds of homeless young men were standing in military formation, quietly waiting for Yuan Tiangang's arrival. "I won't practice martial arts today. Bring me a pen and paper. I will tell you what a bad person is and what it means to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty..." "Yes, handsome!" …… Jin State, Youzhou! A drizzle of rain fell outside the Zuixianlou. The waiter smiled and greeted Li Xingyun and the other two, "Please come in, three of you." "Boss, what are your signature dishes?" The elder sister walked forward with arrogant steps. The boss smiled and said, "We have everything. Youzhou is vast and rich in resources. We have everything, whether it's flying in the sky, swimming in the water, or running in the mountains." The elder sister jumped up and took the menu. Her eyes immediately lit up. "What is this flying dragon stewed bear paw? What is this forest frog and deer blood soup?" Hearing this, Li Xingyun curiously snatched the menu from his sister's hand and took a look at it, then said, "This flying dragon is a kind of forest grouse, which is rare. But you have both flying dragon and bear paw here, so I'm afraid it won't be cheap to eat a meal." The shop owner clapped his hands and said, "Of course. In Youzhou City, only Zuixianlou can serve all these famous dishes at once." Li Xingyun nodded slightly, returned the menu to the expectant sister, and said calmly: "One portion each, and two pots of good wine." The shop owner's eyes lit up immediately and he said, "Sir, please wait a moment. I will go and give instructions to the kitchen staff." Ji Ruxue, who was standing behind Li Xingyun at this time, whispered, "Xingyun, those people are chasing us again." Li Xingyun tilted his head and whispered in Ji Ruxue's ear: "Tongwenguan human-level killer, I'll leave it to you to practice, and it's a good opportunity to test your Hanyu Sword Technique." "Okay." Ji Ruxue nodded slightly, turned around and walked out with the sword in hand. "Oh no, we've been discovered, go ahead!" After a loud shout, the Jinxin Spear in the white-clothed man's hand suddenly shot out. Whoosh! A golden needle flew through the drizzle and headed towards Ji Ruxue. Clang! Ji Ruxue flicked her thumb on the long sword, and there was a slight sound. The long sword was unsheathed, and the sword body flashing with cold light reflected Ji Ruxue's beautiful profile, and the golden needle was deflected.
Ji Ruxue leaned over and jumped into the rain. She caught the falling sword with her right hand, dodged the flying hidden weapons with a few dodgers, stepped on the wall and flew up. The white-clothed assassin from Tongwenguan was shocked when he saw this. When did this woman become so powerful? chap! The killer from Tongwenguan hurriedly drew his sword, but before he could pull out the sword, a bare hand pressed on his wrist, and the long sword was swept across gracefully with the backhand, and blood splattered as the sword tip passed through the raindrops. Ji Ruxue slapped the killer down with one palm, her hair intertwined with raindrops flying in the rain, and the sword in her hand killed the killers from Tongwenguan like rain. clang! When sparks fly from swords, someone will fall. Several flashes of blood suddenly appeared. Ji Ruxue looked indifferently at the bodies around her falling down. Finally, she looked towards the attic not far away. "You are hiding in the dark like rats. Why don't you show up?" "Little girl, if Li Xingyun hadn't been there to defend you, you wouldn't have been able to talk to me like this." A figure appeared on the attic. This person was wearing a blood-stained robe, had white hair, and had two swords on his back. Ji Ruxue looked at this person and frowned slightly, saying, "You don't seem to be from Tongwenguan." Most of the people in Tongwenguan wear white clothes, and their outfits are similar, so they are easy to identify. "Haha, King Jin has mobilized the entire nation to launch a hunt for Li Xingyun. It's such a grand event, so naturally we have to join in the fun." The person who spoke was a sturdy man who walked slowly out of the rain. Behind him was a heavy knife, almost as wide as an ordinary door panel. "There's no point in talking any more. Li Xingyun is not easy to deal with. Let's kill this woman first, and then defeat them one by one." A thin figure stood on the Zuixian Tower, swinging a curved hook with a chain in his hand. "Haha, I want this woman's face." A masked woman appeared on the street corner, holding a long red whip in her hand. "Not bad, all the famous masters in the martial arts world are here. It seems that I, Li, still have some face." Li Xingyun, carrying the Longquan Sword, slowly walked into the rain and stood in front of Ji Ruxue. He casually pressed down the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a pair of eyes shining with golden light: "I just don't know, how many lives have you prepared to kill me?" (End of this chapter)
