Chapter 593 The Fierce Beast in the Snow

"Your Highness! You're awake!"

Upon opening his eyes, Li Qingyuan was met with an unfamiliar ceiling. He suddenly realized that he must have transmigrated.
Turning his head, he saw a beardless old man in a silk robe looking at him with concern.

Just as I was about to consider whether to use amnesia or dissociation to get the old man to tell me about my current situation, the old man spoke up directly.

"Your Highness, this old servant knows you are eager to restore your kingdom, but no one has ever mastered the Heavenly Wrath Heart Sutra in thousands of years. You should stop practicing it!"

Heavenly Wrath Heart Sutra?
Driven by a desire to restore their kingdom?

What world have I traveled to?
Li Qingyuan was somewhat bewildered. He did know about the Heavenly Wrath Heart Sutra, the signature technique of the Nine Thousand Years Old, which could restore the country.

What kind of country is the Nine Thousand Years Old (a title of honor) trying to restore?
"Your Highness, please rest well. This old servant will take his leave now!"

As the old man took his leave, two young maids, who looked to be in their prime, came forward, carrying a copper basin and a towel, clearly preparing to wipe his body.

The two maids looked exactly alike, both exquisitely beautiful, which made someone sigh with admiration.

The two sisters helped him up and then began to change his clothes and wipe him down. He didn't even have to move a finger during the process.

Good guy!
It really was a corrupt and decadent old society!

That old man seemed like a smart person. Although the amnesia technique is very good, we have to be careful. What if this world has some kind of body-snatching technique? It would be bad if we were mistaken for demons and had our bodies stolen.

The twin maids in front of them, though they seemed clever and quick-witted, were clearly much easier to fool than the old man from before.

Especially while the two maids were wiping him, he casually stretched his hands and feet, making the two women blush, and then extracted a lot of information from them!
Don't misunderstand, Li Qingyuan said that he is actually a good person. The reason he touched the twins was to make them lower their guard. After all, they could tell at a glance that they were his concubines. Under such circumstances, the two women would definitely be more at ease.

The two maids were named Qianxue and Qianxun. They had been his personal maids since childhood and had served him for several years!
Upon hearing this, Li Qingyuan couldn't help but sigh at how corrupt they were. They were only this age now; what must they have been like a few years ago?
One can only say that feudal society was truly—

That's absolutely awesome!
Of course, the main reason is that the identity he transmigrated into is someone else serving him. Although he is a prince of a fallen kingdom, he still has a few loyal servants, which is much better than those who are born to be beasts of burden.

Therefore, he felt that feudal society still had its merits.

If his transmigrated identity were the same as those protagonists with bitter experiences and deep grudges, who were at the very bottom of society, then he would definitely shout, "Are kings and nobles born with special privileges?"
'The Li Yang Dynasty? A prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty?'

The information Li Qingyuan received from the two maids left him somewhat bewildered.

When he first heard about the Heavenly Wrath Heart Sutra, he thought it was some kind of story about a high-ranking official, but who would have thought it would actually be about a ruthless beast in the snow!

The novel *Snowy Journey* was highly acclaimed back then, hailed as unparalleled and ushering in a new era of martial arts fiction. However, he forced himself to read half of it but simply couldn't bear it anymore. There was no way around it; the protagonist, Xu Fengnian, was the son of Xu Xiao, the infamous King of Beiliang, known as the "Human Butcher." Xu Xiao commanded 300,000 Beiliang cavalry, who had swept across the land, once conquering six kingdoms in a single battle. He was the most powerful and prestigious king of a different surname in the world, with countless elite troops and generals under his command—a figure comparable to Sima Yi.

The protagonist's mother is known as the most talented swordsman in the Wu Family Sword Tomb. Even while pregnant, she was able to fight four masters and break through to the realm of a terrestrial immortal. His father is known as Qi Lianhua, the master of swords and armor. They can be said to be top-level figures in the entire martial arts world.

The protagonist is the reincarnation of the True Martial Emperor, who came to this world to overcome the so-called tribulations of the mortal realm. Therefore, all the troubles in the world have nothing to do with him. He can play around in the mortal world and then go back to be an immortal!
Actually, it's nothing. Isn't it normal for the protagonist to have a good life? Li Qingyuan said that if he had that kind of luck, he would definitely be laughing in his dreams.

But!
This beastly protagonist kept complaining about his miserable life from beginning to end, saying that he was the most miserable, tired, pitiful and helpless person in the world, and that the Xu family was also a pitiful family.

Wornema!
Dragon-scaled Horse!
Li Qingyuan said he had never seen such a shameless person in his life!
It can be said that there are very few normal people in the entire Xu family, the entire Northern Liang, and even the entire world; this world is simply sick.

The experts under Xu Xiao's command and the maids around Xu Fengnian were almost all people who had a blood feud with the father and son, but they all became lackeys of the Xu family, their loyalty was like they had a cheat code.

As a prince of the Southern Tang Dynasty in distress, how could I possibly deal with a protagonist like this? I'd need some kind of cheat code!

'Ding! The prince in distress has joined the chat group!'

Well, as expected, no time traveler doesn't come with a cheat code; how can you play without one?
After chatting with everyone in the group and receiving the newcomer gift pack, Li Qingyuan finally felt a little more confident in protecting himself.

"Qianxue Qianxun, bring Jun Wushang to see me!"

With confidence comes courage. Just now, Li Qingyuan was worried that someone would see through his disguise, but now he doesn't care anymore!
With his current strength, unless he courts death, what difference does it make if the difference is noticed?
Jun Wushang, the old man, rushed over immediately. He used to be a eunuch in the Southern Tang Dynasty. When the Southern Tang Dynasty was destroyed, he escaped with the young Li Qingyuan and hid for more than ten years.

Even a broken ship has three thousand nails. The Southern Tang was nothing but trash among the states of the Spring and Autumn Period. It was conquered by Xu Xiao's army in just over ten days. Compared with the Western Chu, which fought Xu Xiao for several years, it was simply rubbish. But at least it had a few loyal ministers.

Furthermore, unlike the Western Chu, whose royal family was completely wiped out, the Southern Tang royal palace was burned down because the country was destroyed so quickly. Therefore, Li Qingyuan, a prince of the Southern Tang who had fallen on hard times, was virtually unknown.

There's no way around it. Even those who are determined to restore their kingdoms and seek revenge all use the banners of Western Chu, Western Shu, or Eastern Yue. Who would bother attacking Southern Tang for no reason?
So when your strength is limited, even revenge becomes a joke, and nobody cares about you.

"Your Highness, what do you need this old servant for?"

Jun Wushang was a little puzzled. Why did His Highness seem different after waking up?

"What major events have happened in the world recently? What news is there from Northern Liang?"

The two maids only knew about the surrounding area; they knew nothing beyond that. So, if they wanted to figure out the plot, they could only ask Jun Wushang!

(The plot of Snowy Mountain may have been slightly altered, mainly because I didn't finish reading the book and the TV series made many changes, so I can only try my best to restore the characters' personalities and identities. As for the plot, forget about it, I'm just here to ruin the plot!)
