Zhu Tian: A journey of spiritual practice starting from Joy of Life

Chapter 206 Li Chengqian Captured Alive, Li Yunrui Commits Suicide

As soon as he finished speaking, Leng Feibai raised his hand and released a surge of powerful true qi.

The soldiers attacking the city below were immobilized by the power of the true qi.

"hehe"

Leng Feibai smiled slightly, raised his hand, and sharp stone pillars, as thick as willow trunks and formed from earth and stone, burst forth from the ground, knocking out the soldiers under the Crown Prince's command one by one.

Looking at the results below, Leng Feibai thought to himself, "Not bad. The power of this Rock-Solid Technique is not bad. It has this kind of power at the third level. When it returns to the Chaos Sea of ​​Qi at the ninth level, the Earth Qi of the Spleen will definitely be enhanced even more."

Fan Xian and Shadow, standing to the side, stared wide-eyed at the unconscious soldiers lying haphazardly below, and couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Let's go, Fan Xian!"
Leng Feibai pointed in the direction of the military camp and said, "Qin Ye and Li Chengqian are in the camp. Don't you want to avenge your mother?"

As soon as he said that, Fan Xian felt as if he had been injected with adrenaline. He turned to Shadow and said, "Shadow, you and General Wang take the men and guard the city gate. I'll be right back with Fei Bai."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Xian ignored Shadow's obstruction and flew off the city wall.

Seeing this, General Wang asked the shadow beside him, "Are we just going to let them penetrate deep into the enemy camp like this?"

Shadow shrugged and said, "There are at least two or three thousand soldiers below the city, and Leng Feibai took them all down with a flick of his finger. Not to mention the guys in the camp. Just wait, we'll go down and capture prisoners when they come out."

Using their lightness skills, the two flew to the entrance of the enemy camp in an instant.

Leng Feibai raised his hand and waved it, causing a row of wooden stakes outside the camp to collapse on the spot due to the force of his true qi, revealing the soldiers who remained behind them.

The situation on the battlefield was already clearly visible to the sentries on the lookout tower.

Just as he relayed the message to his comrades in the camp, Leng Feibai and Fan Xian had already arrived.

"Everyone!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "I've come here to see Qin Ye and Li Chengqian. I don't want to cause you any trouble, so please..."

Before Leng Feibai could finish speaking, the soldiers in the camp rushed towards the two of them.

Upon seeing this, Leng Feibai's lips twitched involuntarily, and he stomped down with his foot.

A surge of powerful true energy erupted along Leng Feibai's steps, and giant earth and stone pythons burst forth from the ground, charging towards the soldiers who were rushing up.

Within two or three breaths, the soldiers were knocked to the ground by the stone python released by Leng Feibai, letting out miserable howls.

Just then, Qin Ye and Li Chengqian, who were studying the battle situation in the main tent, also heard the commotion outside. They walked out of the tent together and were immediately stunned by what they saw.

Li Chengqian, in particular, almost collapsed when he saw the tragedy before him.

With great difficulty and the help of Eunuch Hou, he successfully got in touch with General Qin Ye.

He persuaded the emperor to give up his five thousand private soldiers in exchange for helping him seize the throne after he ascended the throne.

It should be noted that Qin Ye's five thousand private soldiers were composed of squad leaders and platoon leaders he had drawn from the army. They were skilled in martial arts, and each of them was at least a fifth-rank soldier. They were definitely not comparable to ordinary soldiers.

In addition, Qin Ye is the number one person within the ninth rank in the Qing Kingdom, and also a veteran general who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

With his support, I am absolutely able to defeat Li Chengze's 5,000 ragtag troops.

Unexpectedly, less than a day after besieging the capital, his 5,000 elite troops were defeated.

"Your Highness, it's been a long time."

Fan Xian looked at Li Chengqian and said in a cold tone, "Will you come back with me voluntarily, or should I capture you and we go back together?"

"What a courage!"

Qin Ye, clad in armor and wielding a ghost-headed saber, gritted his teeth and said, "Fan Xian, I don't have time to argue with you. Tell me, did you kill my son, Qin Heng?"

Fan Xian immediately denied it, saying, "It wasn't me, but you could say I killed him."

After saying that, Fan Xian deliberately feigned a regretful tone and said, "General Qin, to be honest, I don't have a bad impression of you. If you hadn't killed my mother, I wouldn't have wanted to touch you."

"Good good!"

Qin Ye drew his long sword from his waist, his aged eyes revealing a fierce and ruthless glint.

"Fan Xian, make your move. Even if I die today, I'll drag you down with me."

Upon hearing this, Fan Xian drew Frostmourne and said, "Brother Fei Bai, leave this to me. You keep an eye on Li Chengru and don't let him escape again. Let's finish this quickly and not waste any more time!"

After Leng Feibai finished speaking, he stepped aside. As soon as he finished speaking, Fan Xian drew his sword and charged towards Qin Ye.

Qin Ye ignored Li Chengqian standing to the side and charged straight at Fan Xian with his sword.

One was a seasoned ninth-rank expert, and the other was a young upstart. The two fought to the death, going all out from the start.

The swords clashed, and in the blink of an eye, the long sword forged from cold iron in Qin Ye's hand snapped in two.

Before Qin Ye could even react in surprise, Fan Xian swiftly struck, unleashing a burst of sword energy that severed Qin Ye's head in one fell swoop.

"That's quite an improvement!"

Leng Feibai stepped forward and said, "It seems that you haven't been neglecting your cultivation during this time."

Fan Xian did not answer, but sheathed his sword and looked at the bewildered Li Chengqian.

"Fan Xian!"

Li Chengqian took two steps back and said through gritted teeth, "Now that His Majesty is dead, as long as you are willing to submit to me, I can restore the position of Prime Minister and grant you the position of the second-highest-ranking official in the Qing Kingdom."

"You should come back with me first, then we can talk!"

Fan Xian stared at Li Chengqian with a cold face and said in a chilling voice, "Also, where is Li Yunrui?"

Li Chengqian took two steps back, gritting his teeth as he said, "Auntie, I won't tell you?"

"Let's go to Taiping Villa!"

As soon as Leng Feibai finished speaking, Li Chengqian's face turned completely pale.

"It looks like it's there!"

Leng Feibai turned to Fan Xian and said, "I'll go and bring Li Yunrui back. You take this guy back first!"

Fan Xian nodded, stepped forward and knocked Li Chengqian unconscious, then carried him away from the military camp.

Half an hour later, inside the Taiping Villa, Leng Feibai calmly made rouge for Li Yunrui.

For some reason, there was no one else in Taiping Villa at this moment, besides the two of them.

Looking at Leng Feibai standing in front of him, Li Yunrui said with a sneer, "Since you're here, it means that Li Chengze and Li Chengqian have lost!"

"Failed!"

Leng Feibai calmly said, "Will the Princess come back with me, or..."

"hehe!"

Li Yunrui smiled, turned to look out the window, and said with a hint of sadness in his voice, "Leng Feibai, is His Majesty really dead?"

"how could I know!"

Leng Feibai feigned ignorance, saying, "Whether the news is true or it's a bait set up by His Majesty, only he himself knows!"

"You really are a master of hiding your true intentions!"

Li Yunrui looked up at Leng Feibai and said, "Deliberately feigning serious injury to hide the fact that you've fallen from the Grandmaster realm. What a cunning scheme!"

"such a pity!"

Leng Feibai said calmly, "If I were all alone, or if I were in Northern Qi, I would be more decisive in my actions! Princess, let's return to the capital."

"hehe!"

Li Yunrui smiled again, spitting out a mouthful of black blood.

Leng Feibai remained unmoved and said calmly, "Take care!"

After watching Li Yunrui die in front of him, Leng Feibai went forward to check on her and, after confirming that she was truly dead, took out a cloak and covered her body before turning and leaving Taiping Villa.
