Chapter 48
Inside King Qin's Mansion.
Li Xuan and Li Qingyu stood in front of a huge sand table. There were all kinds of terrains on it, and it was also filled with military flags.
The stern Li Qingyu pointed at the border between the Great Tang and the Great Han.
He said,"
"The Darkhan Dynasty has stationed a million soldiers at the border to intimidate the Great Tang, and there are even people from the martial arts world of the Darkhan Dynasty interfering! The Great Sui Dynasty had two million troops spread out at the border, ready to fight at any time!”
As he spoke.
Li Qingyu casually picked up a few small military flags and planted them in various places on the Great Tang border.
These small flags represented the Great Tang's response to the situation.
After the situation of both sides was laid out.
Li Qingyu said,
"Little Xuan, the war between the four empires of the Central Plains will take at least a year or half a year. It might even take two to three months.”
"At that time, the opportunity for Zhao Wang Li Yu will come! After all, he had the help of Noble Consort Xiao's family and had nearly half of the supporters in the army. It was very likely that after a big battle, his reputation would surpass yours.”
Hearing Li Qingyu's words, Li Xuan's eyes lit up.
He casually said,
"This is a good thing! If his reputation surpasses mine, then let him take the position of Crown Prince!”
Hearing this.
Li Qingyu was stunned for a moment.
Then, he nodded in realization.
"That's true. If you don't want to be the Crown Prince, then it's fine.”
After saying this.
After Li Qingyu told Li Xuan about the current situation again, she asked Li Xuan,
"Xiao Xuan, what do you think father will arrange for you to do next? With your strength, you shouldn't stay in Chang 'an and do nothing, right?”
His eyes flickered.
Li Xuan smiled and said,
"What I want to do shouldn't be in the army or the court!”
Li Qingyu frowned and began to think.
Then, his eyes lit up as he looked at Li Xuan.
"Pugilistic world?"
He nodded in agreement.
Li Xuan casually said,
"The Great Tang is about to go to war. It's impossible not to use the power of the martial arts world.”
Hearing Li Xuan's words.
Li Qingyu pondered for a moment before walking away.
Without saying a word, he began to think about how Li Xuan should deal with this matter.
This was because Li Qingyu discovered that-
Other than Li Xuan, no one in the royal family was suitable for this matter.
The unification of the martial arts world could not be done by the imperial court's orders.
It could only be done with the identity of the royal family as the main force, supplemented by the power of the imperial court.
"Royal Sister, you don't need to consider this matter.”
Li Xuan interrupted Li Qingyu's thoughts.
"Royal Sister, help me deal with the matters in the court. As for the martial world…it's actually very easy to deal with. After all, the imperial court doesn't want to completely manage the martial world.”
The blade of Jianghu was very sharp!
Hearing Li Xuan's words, Li Qingyu casually nodded.
"Since you've put it this way, then I won't care about this matter anymore. I'll only help you coordinate the matters of the Imperial Court…I still think that we should fight for military power.”
He smiled.
Li Xuan did not comment on this.
"Royal Sister, just do as you see fit. I don't care!”
Anyway, he had never thought of becoming the Crown Prince or the Emperor, so he naturally did not care about military power.
However, at the same time, Li Xuan wanted Li Qingyu to take the throne and become the Empress of the generation.
To ensure that in the future, there would be no trouble from the Emperor.
That was exactly the case.
The next Emperor candidate in Li Xuan's heart had always been Li Qingyu.
The rest were not within Li Xuan's consideration.
Bang! Bang!
Someone knocked on the door.
Chang Ping's voice was heard,"
"Wangye, someone from the palace has come to invite you into the palace!”
Hearing Chang Ping's words.
Li Xuan's eyes flickered as he said,
"So fast? It seemed like Imperial Father was about to take action! Royal Sister, I'm going to the palace!"
Regarding this.
Li Qingyu naturally did not have any objections. After sending Li Xuan out of King Qin's residence, she returned to her princess residence.
……
In the imperial garden.
It was the pavilion where he played chess with the Tang Emperor last time.
This time, there was still a game of chess on the chessboard in the pavilion. The Tang Emperor placed his pieces while waiting for Li Xuan's arrival.
Da da--
Light footsteps sounded.
Li Xuan's figure appeared outside the pavilion.
As a matter of fact, with his current strength, he should be able to make no sound under normal circumstances. However, he was in the imperial palace and was close to the Tang Emperor. It was only right for him to make some noise. After all, the Tang Emperor had to consider the issue of assassins.
"Your son greets Imperial Father!"
Li Xuan bowed to the Tang Emperor in the pavilion.
He pointed at the seat opposite him.
Tang Emperor said,"
"Sit down!"
Without any hesitation, Li Xuan sat in front of the Tang Emperor. His gaze swept across the chessboard, and then he picked up a black piece and directly placed it on the chessboard. Without much hesitation, he placed it extremely accurately.
He saw Li Xuan place his stone.
The Tang Emperor also raised his hand and placed a piece.
The last time, he had lost to Li Xuan in the exquisite Go game. The Tang Emperor had put in all his effort and wanted to win back a game!
The Tang Emperor did not talk about serious matters, so Li Xuan was not in a hurry. He directly placed another piece.
The two of them fought back and forth on the chessboard.
However, Li Xuan had always had the upper hand.
About two hours later-
The Tang Emperor had lost completely and had no power to turn things around.
Pa da.
With a displeased expression, he threw down the chess piece in his hand.
Tang Emperor said,"
"I'm not going down."
Li Xuan ignored the Tang Emperor's displeasure and said with a smile,
"Thank you for letting me win, Imperial Father."
He looked at Li Xuan faintly.
Tang Emperor said,"
"You said that you are proficient in the four arts, and it seems that you are not lying…At least I have seen your Go skills…You are indeed amazing!”
Li Xuan smiled and nodded.
"Imperial Father, you flatter me!"
Pa da.
Slapping the chessboard, the Tang Emperor laughed."
"Am I praising you? Am I telling you that you need to know how to be low-key and modest when dealing with people? You don't even know how to give way when playing chess?”
Losing twice in a row, he didn't leave any face behind.
Did the emperor not care about his face?
Don't you want your father's face?
Not only did he beat him on the chessboard, but he also played with him the entire time. It was simply preposterous.
This filial son is really filial to death.
"Imperial Father, your son has always kept a low profile! With your son's talent, I can traverse ancient and modern times! From ancient times until now, talent in both the civil and military fields has always been the same. Your son has taken eight buckets, the Three Royals and Five Emperors have taken one bucket, and the heroes of the world have taken another bucket!”
Facing the Tang Emperor's displeasure, Li Xuan smiled and said,
"Your son has never flaunted such a person…isn't your son low-key enough?”
After saying that.
Li Xuan did not care about the Tang Emperor's crazy twitching face. He looked at the chessboard and continued,
"Moreover, your son has already given Imperial Father some face…At the very least, Imperial Father can spend two hours with your son! Moreover, as the Tang Emperor, how could his father lose his will to play with things?”
In that case, I am too weak?
Hearing Li Xuan's words.
The Tang Emperor said unhappily,"
"I am the emperor of the Great Tang, I can do whatever I want!”
Li Xuan was completely fearless.
"Imperial Father is also this son's father, this son is not afraid of you!”
He was stunned for a moment.
Li Xuan's words made Tang Emperor's heart feel a little warm.
Being an emperor was lonely.
Because one could not be emotional, many times, the emperor needed to be indifferent. In fact, many times, there was no one to speak to.
The Tang Emperor was like this in the past.
Until Li Xuan appeared...
This son did not have much respect for him. Instead, he felt a little closer to him like an ordinary father and son.
This was also the main reason why the Tang Emperor would behave like this.
If it were any other prince or his favorite daughter, the princess, they would be afraid of the Tang Emperor.
However, Li Xuan would not...
He didn't know if this guy was really a tiger, but in his heart, he didn't have much respect for the imperial power. It was more like the way a father and son interacted with each other.
This method was exactly what the Tang Emperor wanted and needed.
"Little brat!"
Unable to win against Li Xuan, the Tang Emperor's face revealed a smile that came from the heart of an old father.
"Among my sons, there are many who are better at talking than you! But only your words make me feel comfortable! Alright, take a guess. What do I want you to do this time?”
Li Xuan pondered for a moment.
Then, he said with a serious expression,
"The Central Plains is a gambling den. The survival of the Great Tang depends on one thing! Therefore, before resisting foreign aggression, one must first settle down internally! If your son did not guess wrongly, Imperial Father should want your son to unify the martial arts world, right?”
He smiled and nodded.
The Tang Emperor stood up and walked to the pavilion with his hands behind his back.
He said domineeringly,
"That's right, it's the martial arts world! It wasn't that the imperial court couldn't control the martial world, nor was it that the imperial family couldn't control it. It was just that the imperial court and the imperial family didn't want to control them! Now that the Kingdom War was imminent, the blade of the pugilistic world needed to be used properly!”
There was a pause.
With a cold glint in his eyes, the Tang Emperor said,"
"The martial world has been open for far too long. Some people have probably forgotten who the Great Tang belongs to!”
Hearing this.
Li Xuan nodded in understanding.
"It's time to deal with it. Leave this matter to your son!”
Tang Emperor nodded.
He turned his head to look at Li Xuan, who was already standing beside him. His eyes and expression were filled with satisfaction.
He said,"
"With your cultivation of the Upper Three Realms of the Great Grandmaster Realm, it won't be difficult for you to unify the martial arts world! "You don't have to worry about those experts at the integration of Heaven and man. Those people have rules that they need to abide by. Under normal circumstances, they can't make a move.”
He nodded in understanding.
Li Xuan's eyes flickered with a sharp light, but he did not say anything.
Instead, he had a look of contemplation and anticipation.
He had been yearning for the martial world for a long time.
Perhaps after he went and challenged the entire world of martial artists, he could also become a legend in the world of martial artists. At the same time, he could completely unlock the character template of Heavenly Sword·Nameless and draw a new template!
"Someone is accompanying you on this trip!”
Looking at Li Xuan, the Tang Emperor seemed to have thought of something.
"Do you still remember that little girl from Sacred Sect?”
He raised his eyebrows.
Zhan Taixuan's voice and appearance appeared in Li Xuan's mind.
"Zhan Taixuan?"
He nodded.
Tang Emperor said,"
"The Sacred Sect is closely related to the royal family. There are several reclusive masters. Letting Zhan Taixuan go with you will save you a lot of trouble! "The Pure Yang Sect, Buddhist Sect, and Demon Sect are not so easy to deal with. You have to be careful!”
Li Xuan nodded, indicating that he understood.
In the following time.
The Tang Emperor talked about the distribution of the martial arts world's forces, while Li Xuan humbly accepted his teachings and memorized all this information.
At the same time, it was terrifying.
This was because the Great Tang was watching every move of the many factions of the martial arts world. There were few secrets to speak of, and this showed how much control the Great Tang had over the martial arts world.
It was only stronger than Li Xuan had thought, not weaker.
……
He stayed in the palace.
After having dinner with the Tang Emperor and Empress Xian, who had already been crowned as Empress.
Only then did Li Xuan leave the palace.
He returned to his residence.
He had just returned.
A servant came to report that two guests had been waiting for a long time.
With the Tang Emperor's reminder.
Li Xuan knew who these two guests were.
In the main hall of the Imperial Residence.
Li Xuan saw Zhan Taixuan and her junior sister Tan 'er, who he had not seen for a long time.
"Ladies, how have you been?”
When he walked into the main hall and saw Zhan Taixuan and Tan 'er, Li Xuan smiled and took the initiative to greet them.
"I didn't expect the two ladies to come so quickly! Sorry to keep you waiting."
He glanced at Zhan Taixuan and Tan 'er.
The strength of both of them had improved to different degrees!
Zhan Taixuan had taken another step forward and was already a first-level Zongshi realm expert.
As for Tan 'er, she was a level lower, but she was already at the Xiantian ninth stage.
It all showed that the sect was extraordinary.
Looking at it now, at the very least, in terms of disciples, they were indeed very powerful!
"Greetings, King Qin!"
Seeing Li Xuan arrive, Zhan Taixuan and Tan 'er both stood up and bowed.
He waved his hand casually.
Li Xuan said indifferently,
"There's no need to be so polite. The two of you can be considered Liangchen's friends. Just call me Li Xuan.”
Hearing Li Xuan's words.
Zhan Taixuan and Tan 'er both heaved a sigh of relief.
After all, they were children of the martial arts world. After getting used to their freedom, they were really a little worried that their etiquette was not up to standard and they would offend Li Xuan in front of them. Ignoring their status, just Li Xuan's strength was already incredible.
A great grandmaster!
This was a realm that many people could only reach in their lifetime.
From this, it could be seen how terrifying Li Xuan was.
Zhan Taixuan and Tan 'er were much more reserved than before.
Li Xuan naturally saw the cautious attitude of the two of them.
He didn't say much.
Some things were innate.
For example, the dignity and nobility on his body were all innate. Many people would avoid Li Xuan when they saw him.
It was not because Li Xuan was so ferocious.
It was only because of his noble aura that people did not dare to approach him easily.
After chatting for a while.
Zhan Taixuan asked,"
"Young Master Li, when are we leaving?”
Staying in Chang 'an, especially in Prince Qin's mansion, made her feel uncomfortable.
So naturally-
Zhan Taixuan still hoped to leave early!
Can't you see that Tan 'er, who was originally very lively, isn't talking much now?
"I might have to trouble the two young ladies to stay in the wangfu for a day.”
Looking at Zhan Taixuan, Li Xuan said directly,
"I still have some things to arrange…We can only set off the day after tomorrow!”
Hearing this.
Zhan Taixuan and Tan 'er could only nod in agreement.
Although they did not know why their sect had asked them to help Li Xuan, their sect had ordered them to do so. There was nothing they could do.
Two days later.
He only brought Chang Ping, Zhan Taixuan, and Tan 'er, who had received orders from the sect.
Li Xuan and the other four left Chang 'an City and rode south.
They headed towards the Jiang Prefecture region!
……
Flower Rain Mountain, where the Flower Rain Sword Sect was located.
This was a mountain with beautiful scenery, green trees everywhere, and blooming mountain flowers that stretched for thousands of miles.
Originally, this place was not called Flower Rain Mountain.
However, before the founding of the Great Tang, when the Li family was conquering the country, there was a Great Grandmaster who helped the Li family. In the end, the other party was unwilling to become an official or a consecrator of the royal family. He only wanted to open a sect and pass down his martial arts.
Therefore, the founding ancestor bestowed this beautiful mountain range to the other party.
Flower Rain Sword Sect.
It was born from this and passed down to this day!
At this moment, at the foot of the Flower Rain Mountain.
Li Xuan rode a thousand-mile horse and arrived here leisurely.
"This scenery is not bad!"
Looking at the scenery of Flower Rain Mountain that had not been defeated all year round, Li Xuan said,
"It's a perfect match for the magnificent sword techniques of the Flower Rain Sword Sect!”
Flower Rain Sword Sect's sword technique.
How gorgeous!
Even Li Xuan had to admit this.
Hearing Li Xuan's words.
Zhan Taixuan, who had relaxed and treated him as a friend.
He smiled and continued,
"In the pugilistic world, the Flower Rain Sword Sect's scenery is unique because of the beautiful scenery of the Flower Rain Mountain!”
Tan 'er, who was standing at the side, also became lively again.
Her small mouth said,
"Moreover, it's said that the founder of the Flower Rain Sword Sect, Fairy Flower Rain, had a romantic story with your Imperial Family's ancestor thousands of years ago. In the end, for some reason, Fairy Flower Rain did not enter the palace!”
Zhan Taixuan glared at Tan 'er.
This girl really spilled everything out!
Zhan Taixuan looked at Li Xuan.
"Young Master Li, please don't take it to heart. What Tan 'er said is just a story from some novels in our Sacred Sect. A figure like the Great Ancestor of the Imperial Family would not have a stain on his reputation!”
He shook his head.
Li Xuan casually said,
"How can there be no stain? The Imperial Family's Great Ancestor had been a womanizer all his life and had provoked countless femme fatales. Miss Tan 'er was right. That Great Ancestor had indeed had a romantic relationship with the Flower Rain Sword Sect's Founding Ancestor!”
a hero cannot be blocked by a beauty.
Similarly, the beauty would naturally be unforgettable!
This kind of thing was not surprising.
It was just human nature. There was nothing to hide.
If possible-
Li Xuan also wanted to be like that ancestor!
Who didn't love beauties!
Even if she really didn't like it, she was still hungry.
Just as the three of them were about to go up the mountain-
Sulfone!
A handsome figure dressed in white with a long sword on his back flew over from Flower Rain Mountain.
The flower petals beside him accompanied him, and his true energy vaguely appeared, making him look like an immortal.
Before he arrived, he spoke first,
"The wind blows for tens of thousands of miles, blowing across the Flower Rain Mountain! I have been waiting for you for a long time.”
