Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 338 Subduing Li Yuanba, Fighting on Two Fronts
"How can it be so heavy?!"

Li Yuanba's eyes nearly popped out as he unleashed the power within his body.

The large hand on his shoulder not only failed to break free, but its grip became increasingly tighter!

Click!

The floor he was standing on cracked open, and his entire body gradually slumped down under the immense force.

Li Shimin was completely unable to withstand such an aura and was forced back more than ten meters.

The entire hall shook violently, and a terrifying and awe-inspiring power emanated from Xu Qing's body. His majesty shook the heavens and the earth, making him seem like a god emperor from the heavens, causing Li Yuanba to tremble.

The surrounding void seemed to distort under this great force, emitting strange sounds that were difficult to bear!
boom!
Li Yuanba's knees were pressed down heavily, and he knelt in front of Xu Qing. The golden-winged roc phantom that bloomed from the bone patterns in his body almost collapsed at this moment.

"So strong!"

Li Yuanba's eyes widened in shock; this was the first time he had ever lost to someone in terms of strength.

"How are you? Do you still have the strength to get up?"

Xu Qing asked calmly, suppressing the illusory image of the Golden-Winged Roc with one hand, his eyes gradually analyzing the mysteries of Li Yuanba's physique!

"I...!" Li Yuanba gritted his teeth, trying to get up, but the large hand on his shoulder was too heavy and the force was too strong for him to get up.

After struggling several times, the strange phenomenon finally collapsed, his bones cracked, the patterns on his body receded, and his power was exhausted.

"I give up!" Li Yuanba admitted defeat.

He lowered his proud head, truly overwhelmed by Xu Qing's power.

Xu Qing chuckled softly, slowly withdrew his large hand, and stood with his hands behind his back.

Li Yuanba felt his shoulders instantly lighten, and all the pressure disappeared.

"Li Yuanba greets Your Majesty!"

He did not get up, but instead knelt down heavily on the ground, bowing his head to the earth.

"Be flat."

Xu Qing smiled and nodded with satisfaction.

"Since you are here, Evil Emperor and Pei Qing, please come in."

His gaze suddenly turned outside, and he spoke softly.

Then, Xiang Yutian and Shi Zhixuan, who had arrived at the palace, stepped inside.

"I have met His Majesty!"

He bowed slightly to Yutian.

Shi Zhixuan bowed even more respectfully and said, "Your humble servant greets Your Majesty!"

"No gift!"

Xu Qing waved his hand, knowing why these two had come.

"You have come for him."

Both Xiang Yutian and Shi Zhixuan looked at the emaciated Li Yuanba.

You can still feel that fierce, demonic aura emanating from him.

"Your Majesty, the strange phenomenon just now originated from him?" Shi Zhixuan asked in surprise.

"What a strange kid!" The Evil Emperor sized up Li Yuanba with his eyes.

No matter how you look at it, this little devil looks like a sickly person, but the aura around him is amazing.

"What are you looking at!" Li Yuanba glared back. He bowed his head to Xu Qing, but he still showed no respect to anyone else.

"Yuanba! Don't be rude! If you keep this up, your second brother will really get angry!"

Li Shimin hurriedly stepped forward to reprimand them, for he knew very well the two experts before him.

One is the Demon King of the Demonic Sect, a Grandmaster of Martial Arts, and the other is an ancient monster who has lived for a very long time, the Evil Emperor Xiang Yutian.

It is rumored that this person has reached the highest level of martial arts, the ability to shatter the void.

Such a powerful person is not to be offended.

Upon hearing this, Li Yuanba pursed his lips and said nothing more.

"Please forgive me, seniors. My younger brother has always had a strange temper and is not very intelligent. I apologize for my offense just now."

Li Shimin said with a face full of apology.

Shi Zhixuan shook his head, not paying any attention.

The Evil Emperor, however, was quite intrigued and said, "I find your little brother's body quite interesting. May I examine it?"

Li Shimin's expression changed; naturally, he could not agree to such a thing.

"Alright, put away your little schemes. Yuanba is a brave warrior of our Great Sui Dynasty. He has rendered meritorious service in destroying the Song Clan. He must not act recklessly."

Xu Qing spoke, dispelling the evil emperor's thoughts.

Seeing this, Xiang Yutian stopped talking, but his eyes remained curiously fixed on Li Yuanba. He was genuinely curious about the strange phenomenon that had just occurred.

When the matter was brought up, Li Shimin reported, "Your Majesty, most of the members of the Song clan have been killed by me."

However, the most important leader, Song Zhi, as well as Song Que's son, Song Shidao, and Song Que's daughter, Song Yuzhi, escaped.

Most of the troops I sent to pursue them were killed, and the surviving soldiers discovered that someone was helping Song Zhi and his men escape.

"Oh, did you discover the other party's identity?" Xu Qing asked.

"The thieves were very arrogant, revealing their identities as Fu Junyu, a disciple of Fu Cailin; Kou Zhong, who called himself one of the Twin Dragons of Yangzhou; Xu Ziling; and..."

When Li Shimin mentioned the identity of the last person, his expression was quite complicated. He paused for a moment before saying:

"And there's also Shi Feixuan, a successor of the Cihang Jingzhai!"

He fell in love with Shi Feixuan at first sight, but things didn't go as planned, and the two eventually became adversaries.

When Wanwan heard Shi Feixuan's name, her eyes narrowed slightly.

As the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, her first opponent was Shi Feixuan of Cihang Jingzhai.

Fortunately, she chose a good backer, thus successfully defeating the Buddhist sect.

This meant that the two, who should have been rivals, never actually met.

"Your Majesty, Shi Feixuan is Fan Qinghui's most outstanding disciple, and her swordsmanship is very strong," Wanwan reminded her from the side.

Xu Qing nodded slightly, noticing that Shi Feixuan, Fu Junyu, and the Shuanglong had gathered together.

He was somewhat surprised, yet he also understood that it made perfect sense.

The two dragons were the chosen ones of this world. Although he took away their opportunities, it seems that the two boys have still obtained other opportunities.

Furthermore, it has close ties with Buddhism and Goryeo (Korea).

It's likely that when Fu Junzhuo was being chased, she encountered the Twin Dragons as expected.

They might think that the same thing about their godmother still happens.

Since he killed Fu Junzhuo, the Twin Dragons must have also held a grudge against him.

The reason why the Twin Dragons Society and Shi Feixuan, the last hope of Buddhism, gathered together and even helped the Song Clan can be easily deduced.

These thoughts flashed through Xu Qing's mind regarding stealing the opportunity from Shuanglong and killing Fu Junzhuo.

He showed no emotion whatsoever; the two dragons' resentment was of no use.

If you dare to be his enemy, then you must be prepared to die.

"Issue arrest warrants! Issue nationwide warrants for the capture of these individuals. We demand their return, whether alive or dead!"

Xu Qing gave instructions to Li Shimin.

"Sir, obey the order!"

Li Shimin replied respectfully.

"This matter does not require too much effort. Next, I will send troops to attack the Turks, and you also have a mission."

Xu Qing continued.

Li Shimin felt a chill run down his spine. He had naturally heard about the Turks crossing the border to kill and plunder grain.

They were also well aware of the intention to send troops to annihilate the Turks.

"I order you to lead the army and crush Goguryeo!"

Li Shimin was startled. He had thought that Xu Qing would ask him to cooperate with the Yuwen clan to deal with the Turks.

But what I really didn't expect was that Xu Qing would have to fight on two fronts at the same time, conquering two major rivals in the north!

"Li Shimin obeys the imperial decree!"

Regardless, as a subject, Li Shimin simply had to follow the imperial decree.

Although fighting on two fronts is a major taboo in military strategy, given the current strength of the Sui Dynasty, it is possible to fight on two fronts without much difficulty.

Moreover, Goryeo's strongest shield, Fu Cailin, had already been slain by Xu Qing.

The biggest obstacle is gone, and conquering Goryeo is not as difficult as before.

"The Evil Emperor and Pei Qing also joined forces in this matter. I order you to take down these two alien races as quickly as possible!"

Xu Qing had no intention of waging a protracted war with Goryeo and the Turks.

He wanted to defeat both of these alien races in one battle, to the point that they would never dare to harbor any thoughts of harming the Central Plains again.

"As your majesty wishes!"

The Evil Emperor and the Evil King both spoke up, without any objection.
