Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 216 Li Changsheng's Analysis, How to Deal with It

"Sir, is there any other way?"

"No."

Li Changsheng shook his head decisively, saying, "If it were in Beili or Liyang, I could notify the people of Baixiaotang and use the imperial court's power to help find the Heavenly Sword. Now, we can't use divination to predict the Heavenly Sword's whereabouts. Searching for the Heavenly Sword in this vast sea of ​​people is more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack..."

As he spoke, Li Changsheng's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Perhaps, there is a way."

"Oh? Please teach me, sir!" Mo Yi bowed again.

“Since Princess Mengyuan has not yet stepped into the terrestrial celestial realm, the sword energy she activated must have caused such destructive power, so the cost must have been considerable, and it may even have backfired more severely.” Li Changsheng analyzed, then suddenly asked with a smile, “Mo Yi, if you were seriously injured, or if your inner energy was over-consumed, where would you choose to recuperate?”

"Nature is a safe place."

"correct."

Li Changsheng pointed at Mo Yi and burst into laughter: "The Ming Dynasty's pursuit is still ongoing, and that Mongol princess has caused such a terrible massacre this time, offending almost all the powers in the world. Moreover, she has the Heavenly Sword and the He Shi Bi jade in her possession, and she holds the secrets of the First Emperor's Mausoleum. In such a desperate situation, where do you think she can go?"

"The Mongol Yuan dynasty?" Mo Yi guessed, but her tone was resolute.

"Yes."

Li Changsheng's smile faded, and he analyzed with a solemn expression: "That woman is a Mongol princess. Although she is not exactly at her wit's end, she is in great danger. Looking at the whole world, the only place that can make her feel at ease is the Mongol Yuan Dynasty."

"Or rather, the Mongol capital, Dadu."

"Her home!"

"Does the gentleman mean the Prince of Ruyang's residence?" Mo Yi was able to reach the Celestial Realm at such a young age, so he was certainly not stupid. Moreover, the Heavenly Sword was related to his obsession, so he guessed what Li Changsheng was referring to almost instantly.

"Yes."

Li Changsheng nodded to Mo Yi.

"Finding a needle in a haystack is difficult, but waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump is easy. Let's go to Dadu (Beijing) and wait for her."

"In that case, let's go." Without hesitation, Mo Yi waved her sleeve and disappeared from everyone's sight as if blown away by a gentle breeze.

"You're really in a hurry!" Li Changsheng smiled helplessly, but there was no blame in his tone. He clearly knew about Mo Yi's inner turmoil and why he was so eager to find the Heavenly Sword.

The next moment, Li Changsheng's figure also disappeared.

This self-proclaimed immortal, unmoved by anything and only desiring a carefree life in the mortal world, still had things he couldn't let go of, people and events he couldn't let go of.

His desire for the Heavenly Sword was no less than Mo Yi's.

"interesting."

"Even they came."

The moment the two left, Yan Yimei's figure appeared in the sky above the sword-marked ravine. "With a single thought, even mountains and rivers can be crossed in an instant."

"But the distance between the overseas countries and the Great Sui Dynasty is more than 100,000 li."

"To traverse such a distance, to manifest one's physical form using the power of a celestial being, and to be so determined to obtain the Heavenly Sword!"

"It seems that the show Your Highness wanted to see is not over yet."

Although Li Changsheng and Mo Yi came and went elusively, like immortals suddenly visiting the mortal world, without disturbing too many people, they could not escape the notice of Yan Yimei, who was dealing with Dugu Qiubai and others in the mountains.

In fact, Yan Yimei and Li Wuyi initially thought they were the ones who had slipped through the net.

Unexpectedly, Li Changsheng and Mo Yi, who came from afar overseas, were the two immortals whom Zhu Jinzhen had specifically marked in the secret guards, instructing the secret guards dispatched to Beili and Liyang to pay close attention to.

Li Wuyi appeared beside Yan Yimei and said with a faint smile, "The show may end, but the audience may not disperse, so why not continue the performance? In any case, it's just a few more pawns jumping into the game."

Li Changsheng is very strong, and Mo Yi is also very strong.

But the strongest were not them, but Yan Yimei and Li Wuyi, and their prince Zhu Jinzhen.

"Well, that's the only way." Yan Yimei pondered for a moment, then a bright smile appeared on her face. The arrival of terrestrial immortals or celestial beings from overseas countries was already part of her princess's rehearsed plan.

The arrival of Li Changsheng and Mo Yi couldn't change anything.

"But the most urgent task right now is to get rid of them."

Yan Yimei glanced back at the depths of the mountains. If she hadn't been quick to react and set up a barrier to isolate everyone's aura, even if Mo Yi hadn't noticed, Li Changsheng would have detected the anomaly.

Yan Kuangtu, Dugu Qiubai, Zhu Fajia, Ning Daoqi, and all others were terrestrial immortals standing at the pinnacle of the world, far from ordinary individuals. Yan Yimei dared not make the decision on her own regarding how to deal with them.

Li Wuyi nodded and said, "Understood, I have informed Your Highness."

hum! !

Suddenly, a portal of light appeared in the void.

Immediately afterwards, Zhu Jinzhen's voice entered Yan Yimei and Li Wuyi's ears through the Anywhere Door.

"Bring them all back first, then we'll make a decision."

"Yes, Your subordinate obeys." Yan Yimei and Li Wuyi bowed in unison.

……

The Ming Dynasty, Tian Ce Prefecture.

Zhu Jinzhen listened to Yan Yimei and the others' reports while looking at the people who had been captured.

"Eighteen land immortals".

"The Way of the Sword, the Way of the Knife, the Three Perfections of Fist, Palm and Leg, and even the strange martial arts, the Buddhist and Taoist schools, and the demonic martial arts."

"Tsk!"

Zhu Jinzhen looked at these people, whose cultivation had been sealed and who had been captured, as if they were piglets, and began to carefully consider how to deal with them.

Killing is the simplest thing.

It's also the most wasteful.

Song Que, the Heavenly Blade, stands at the pinnacle of the Dao of the Blade. A further step would allow him to delve into the Dao of the Blade, possessing the bearing of a celestial being on land.

Dugu Qiubai, the peerless sword demon, although a descendant of the Xianbei, has gone far in the path of swordsmanship. He is among the top in the world, almost second only to Zhu Jinzhen.

Xie Xiaofeng, the Emperor of Swords, the God of Swords, is on par with Dugu Qiubai.

Needless to say, Yi Tianxing's swordsmanship and talent are extremely strong. Given time, reaching the Land Celestial Realm is not a problem. In fact, if Zhu Jinzhen were willing to give him some guidance, he, Dugu Qiubai, and Xie Xiaofeng might all be able to step into the Land Celestial Realm in a short period of time.

Such a remarkable person would be the most wasteful thing to do to simply kill him.

of course……

It's not necessarily true that it has great value.

Zhu Jinzhen possesses the Martial Arts Cultivation Furnace. As long as these people are placed into it, all the sword techniques, fist techniques, leg techniques, Buddhist and Taoist martial arts, etc., that they have spent their entire lives comprehending and mastering will be acquired by Zhu Jinzhen effortlessly.

What he has in abundance is the combat power of a terrestrial immortal.

When Zhu Jinzhen heard Yan Yimei mention what happened outside Jingnian Temple before they captured the people and brought them back to the Ming Dynasty, he couldn't help but show surprise: "Li Changsheng and Mo Yi actually came?"

Although he sent his secret guards to spread the news to overseas countries through the Anywhere Door.

However, Zhu Jinzhen wasn't entirely confident that he could lure the man into a trap.

It's not that this open scheme isn't clever.

Rather, the distance is simply too far.

Unexpectedly, Li Changsheng and Mo Yi actually came.

"Your Highness, it is indeed them."

"Moreover, based on my observation, they seem determined to obtain the Heavenly Sword as well."

"They should have already gone to Dadu (Beijing) or the Prince of Ruyang's residence, waiting for Zhao Min to appear." Yan Yimei reported truthfully everything she had observed from her hiding place in the clouds.

"Oh?"

Zhu Jinzhen's eyes flickered, and he smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, then let's play along."

"but……"

"Make sure Zhao Min is well hidden and doesn't let Li Changsheng and the others find out too soon."

"Yes, this subordinate understands." Yan Yimei clasped her hands and accepted the order. She had already thoroughly mastered the subsequent plan. With her protection, it wouldn't be too difficult to deceive Li Changsheng and Mo Yi, who had only arrived in Dadu of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty through the power of divine will.
