Chapter 291 Breaking in

Prince Qi's Mansion.

The mansion was quite lively, even more so than Li Jiancheng's residence. Since the Crown Prince's death, nobles in the court had been vying to curry favor with Yang Jian, sending their sons and grandsons to his side. Every day, countless people wanted to flatter Yang Jian, and there was a long queue to deliver gifts.

When Li Xuanba arrived here on horseback, leading his soldiers, the roads on both sides of the gate were filled with all kinds of carriages.

These carriages completely blocked the road, making it impossible for anyone to move forward.

Li Xuanba had no choice but to leave his horse there and continue on foot. Even so, he had to walk with difficulty and had to lean against the wall to walk.

When Li Xuanba led his men to the main gate, they saw more than ten people standing there, each handing their name cards to the armored guards at the gate.

Li Xuanba tried to squeeze in, but was blocked by several people in front of him.

Even when facing Li Xuanba, who was fully armed, these people were not afraid. "Why are you pushing? Go wait in the back!"

"I have important business with His Highness Prince Qi, make way for me."

After spending some time in the military, Li Xuanba also picked up some of the habits of a martial artist and became able to say harsh words.

Seeing his appearance, the young men dared not stop him and made way for him.

Li Xuanba approached the armored soldiers and said, "Please inform them that General Li Xuanba has important business to discuss with His Highness Prince Qi."

The soldier was taken aback, bowed to Li Xuanba, and then walked into the mansion.

The young men outside the door also heard his words. They exchanged glances, and one of them muttered, "Is that the incredibly strong Li Xuanba?"

"Wasn't Li Xuanba supposed to be a child? He doesn't look like one at all. He's clearly fifteen or sixteen years old!"

Li Xuanba waited there for a long time. After a while, the armored soldier came out. The soldier's eyes were somewhat evasive. He bowed to Li Xuanba and said, "General, His Highness is not feeling well and will not see guests for the time being."

"I've come to report something important."

"His Highness said: We can meet when we pay our respects to His Majesty in a few days."

Li Xuanba immediately put on a cold face, "I am here on His Majesty's orders to assist Your Highness in handling important matters! I have come to see Your Highness today because of something important!! Go and inform His Highness that if he refuses to see me, there is no need to wait until the day after tomorrow to see His Majesty."

The soldier was in a difficult position, but he still turned around and went into the mansion.

After waiting for a long time, the armored soldier finally emerged. His face was even more pale now; Li Xuanba could even see the handprint on his cheek. The soldier's lips trembled as he pleaded, "Your Highness... I'm unwell. Please, General, spare me."

Li Xuanba was furious.

"You all wait for me here!!"

Li Xuanba said something, shoved the armored soldier in front of him, and walked directly into the mansion. The soldier was shocked and was about to step forward, but Li Xuanba had already drawn his golden mace. He looked coldly at the soldier and said, "How dare you stop me?!"

The armored soldier stood there, stunned, staring at the golden mace in Li Xuanba's hand.

Li Xuanba has recently gained immense fame, and many people know that he is a fierce man who was the first to charge into battle and slay generals. In particular, these armored soldiers know the significance of this feat.

Li Xuanba barged in. Only after he entered did the armored soldiers react, shouting and rushing forward, but they only dared to follow behind Li Xuanba and dared not touch him.

Their commotion only fueled the fear within the mansion. Someone shouted "Thief!" and the front courtyard descended into chaos.

"Li Xuanba!!"

A roar was heard, and She Dizhongqi appeared in front of him. He was shirtless, his face was flushed, and he reeked of alcohol. He was accompanied by about a dozen people, most of whom were also drunk, and each of them was tall and imposing.

She Dizhongqi looked behind him, and someone immediately handed him a steel knife.

"Because of His Highness's orders, I've let you go several times, you little brat. How dare you trespass into the Qi Prince's residence? If I don't kill you today, won't I be looked down upon in the future?"

"Brothers! The time has come to repay the King of Qi's kindness! First, kill this bastard, then go before His Highness and commit suicide to beg for forgiveness!"

She Dizhongqi raised his steel knife and charged towards Li Xuanba.

Then I saw him raise his steel knife, "Bang!"

The next moment, something flew by, followed by a loud thud. She Dizhongqi groaned as the golden mace struck his chest, causing him to spit out blood and collapse to the ground. Li Xuanba stepped forward, picked up the golden mace, and looked at the crowd before him, shouting, "I want to see Prince Qi!!"

“Murder!”

"They've rebelled!!" "Brothers! Charge!!"

The drunken warriors rushed over. One of them charged at him, raising his sword to strike, but Li Xuanba sidestepped and struck him in the leg with his hammer. With a crack, the man screamed and fell to the ground. Li Xuanba continued forward with great speed and ruthless attacks. The golden mace swung left and right, smashing one warrior after another to the ground.

"Boom! Boom!"

Qiao Ling pounded on the door.

"Your Highness!! Your Highness!!"

"Your Highness!!"

"Oh!"

The door was kicked open, and Yang Jian, disheveled, walked out of the room, clutching his belt. Without saying a word, he slapped Qiao Lingze across the face, his eyes fierce, clearly enraged.

"Is this never going to end? Is this never going to end? How dare you ruin my mood like this? Have I been too lenient with you guys all this time?"

Yang Jian was furious. The women he had caught were all stunning beauties, and he was having a great time with them when he kept getting interrupted. Were these people tired of living?
Qiao Lingze's face turned pale. He said, "Your Highness! Something terrible has happened! Li Xuanba has broken in!"

"what?"

Yang Jian stared at him blankly, unable to believe what she was hearing. "What did you say? Who?"

"Li Xuanba! Upon learning that His Highness was unwilling to meet him, he flew into a rage, first injuring the armored guards at the gate, and then barging into the front courtyard, frightening the servants. She Dizhongqi, Liu Qian'an, Pei Gai, Huangfu Chen, and Chen Zhiwei were drinking in the front courtyard when they saw him barging in with a weapon. They tried to confront him, but he attacked them all, and their fates are unknown!"

"That guy is almost breaking into the backyard!!"

"What did you say?!"

Yang Jian was so angry he almost jumped up. "Gather the soldiers! Send someone to gather the soldiers! Kill him! Kill him for me!"

"damn it"

Yang Jian was so angry he could barely speak, so Qiao Ling quickly said, "Your Highness, we should hide first! That fellow is coming this way!"

"Hide?! Hide from him? This is rebellion! Rebellion! There are so many people in my manor, how can I hide?"

Yang Jian looked at Qiao Lingze, drew his longsword from his waist, fastened his belt, and angrily said, "Gather everyone in the manor! Follow me!!"

Yang Jian then rushed towards the front yard.

Qiao Ling peeked into the room through the door and saw only several women who were tied up and remained motionless.
Qiao Ling swallowed hard, then quickly followed Yang Jian.

Yang Jian angrily ordered the door to be opened and rushed out of the backyard.

When he arrived at the front yard, it was already a mess.

His trusted men lay in the distance, some screaming, some silent, and some weeping.
His servants and guards, terrified, surrounded Li Xuanba, their faces pale, and dared not approach.

"Step aside!!"

Yang Jian shouted angrily, then rushed out.

Upon seeing Yang Jian's arrival, the fear in these people subsided considerably. Yang Jian stormed towards Li Xuanba, and looking at his cronies on the ground, his rage became even more uncontrollable.

In all his years, no one had ever dared to humiliate him like this, barging into his residence and injuring his men. If word got out, wouldn't he become a laughingstock of the world? Even future generations would mock him!
Yang Jian angrily charged toward Li Xuanba, whose face now seemed utterly hateful to him.

"Rebellious ministers and traitors!"

Yang Jian cried out and thrust his sword at him.

Yang Jian had practiced martial arts for many years and was skilled in archery and horsemanship. He had previously killed many rebels!

He was determined to show Li Xuanba that he wasn't the only one in the world who could kill!

"Boom~~"

The next moment, the golden mace struck Yang Jian's sword with precision. Yang Jian had never felt such force before. He couldn't hold the sword at all and felt a sharp pain in his palm. The sword flew out, and the next moment, the golden mace smashed towards his face.

Time seemed to slow down.

Yang Jian watched the golden mace come crashing down, the fierce wind gradually clearing his eyes, which were then replaced by fear.
