At this moment, it seemed to Jiang Xuan that there was no one in the world worth his attention.

One kilometer

The Guangling cavalry did not stop and continued their all-out assault.

800 meters

They charged forward at full speed, some even drawing their long swords.

three hundred meters,

Jiang Xuan could even see the smoke and dust rushing towards him, and the stench of blood entering his nostrils.

Jiang Xuan narrowed his eyes, but still didn't make a move.

Two hundred meters,

At this moment, Shu Xiu had also drawn her weapon, and a solemn expression appeared on her face as she tried to stand in front of Jiang Xuan.

However, Jiang Xuan did not make any move. An invisible and intangible transparent protective shield appeared on his body at some point.

Shu Xiu, who originally wanted to step forward, was also blocked inside, unable to get in or out.

150 meters

This distance is incredibly short for cavalrymen; they could appear in front of the two men in the blink of an eye.

And it was at this moment that Jiang Xuan made his move.

At that moment, Jiang Xuan's longsword moved suddenly, and the Guangling River beside him seemed to boil over in an instant.

The sky was filled with sword energy, which, along with the Guangling River, resembled a gaping maw from an abyss, and lunged directly at the Guangling Iron Cavalry on the riverbank.

The instant the water surged into the crowd, countless sword energies simultaneously shattered and exploded.

In an instant, the Guangling Iron Cavalry was completely swallowed up, transforming from a black dragon on the shore into a haphazardly drowned chicken.

In that instant, the world seemed to fall silent.

Especially Shu Xiu, who was standing next to Jiang Xuan, stood frozen in place, not daring to move.

Just as Jiang Xuan made his move, a sword aura shot out from above her head.

The powerful force disrupted her long, black hair, and the long blue scarf used to stabilize her hair fell to the ground.

Just as the long scarf was about to sink into the mud, Jiang Xuan reached out and instantly snatched it into his hand.

Jiang Xuan looked at Shu Xiu beside him, who was stunned by the sword energy.

The instant she made her move, Shu Xiu's exquisitely tailored robe billowed forward.

Her already eye-catching figure was perfectly highlighted.

Jiang Xuan then came up behind Shu Xiu. He completely ignored the situation of the Guangling Iron Cavalry and simply helped Shu Xiu tie her hair with a ribbon.

Although Shu Xiu rarely uses a sword, recently, after hearing what Jiang Xuan said and seeing him fight, she has gained some insights into swordsmanship.

You must know that Jiang Xuan's sword strike just now was merely a wave of his hand, yet it was imbued with astonishing sword energy. The thunderous roar that rang in her ears could be said to have lingered for a long time.

What's most terrifying isn't the sword energy, but Jiang Xuan's ability to control the sword.

It should be noted that Jiang Xuan manipulated the Guangling River waters precisely and exactly to strike the Guangling Iron Cavalry, without the slightest deviation.

Everyone was knocked away and lost their lives, but the horse was the only one unharmed.

Shu Xiu finally understood why Jiang Xuan always said: the best is always the way of the sword, not the technique of the sword.

Especially Jiang Xuan's sword strike just now, the sword intent was magnificent and the scale was grand, the sword energy was surging out, like a tidal wave crashing down.

Yet this domineering sword only harmed those who deserved it, perfectly sparing the horses.

Shu Xiu couldn't help but mutter to herself, thinking that with her talent, she would probably never be able to do such a domineering yet light sword in her lifetime.

While Shu Xiu was lost in thought, Jiang Xuan had already tied up Shu Xiu's hair ribbon, and only then did he look in front of him.

The Guangling Iron Cavalry before us was already in complete disarray.

The iron cavalrymen were all lying on their knees, most of them already dead. Even those who survived were mostly crippled after being hit by Jiang Xuan's sword energy.

After glancing at what was in front of him, Jiang Xuan suddenly grabbed Shu Xiu's boneless, soft hand and said, "Let's go, let's go and meet this Prince of Guangling."

Prince of Guangling?

Zhao Yi?

Just as Shu Xiu was wondering, she followed Jiang Xuan to the other side of the Guangling River.

Shu Xiu didn't even have time to react to this sudden change in scenery.

Chapter 136 Zhao Yi, the Prince of Guangling, and the Threat of Jiang Xuan

This is?

So close yet worlds apart?

Faced with such an ability, Shu Xiu had only seen it in books and didn't even think it would actually happen.

After all, in her opinion, it was already outrageous enough that a master of the Land Immortal Realm could manipulate the earth and fly.

What Jiang Xuan is manipulating now is more like the rules themselves; a single step can make the world seem worlds apart.

Jiang Xuan, however, did not care. He calmly walked to the other side of the Guangling River.

Seeing the coachman pulling on the reins, who was about to leave, Jiang Xuan didn't even say anything before the coachman stopped.

"King of Guangling, now that you're here, why not come down and catch up?"

Jiang Xuan stared at the luxurious black and gold carriage, his face expressionless.

Shu Xiu finally came to her senses. Looking at the carriage in front of her and hearing Jiang Xuan's words, she realized that the Prince of Guangling was actually there.

This Prince of Guangling is no ordinary person; he is one of the six major vassal kings of Liyang.

He can be described as a very domineering person, obese, fierce, and even more tyrannical and lecherous.

He was the founding emperor of Liyang, the younger brother of Zhao Li, a loyal and devoted man who ruled over half of the vast territory of the former Western Chu Dynasty.

Over the years, he has been known for his brutal and infamous suppression of rebellions in Western Chu.

A large portion of the 300,000-strong army that Gu Jiantang gathered last time came from the six major vassal kings, with the Guangling King and the Yanchi King having the most.

This person's strength is among the best in the entire Li Yang Dynasty.

At this moment, a burst of chuckles interrupted Shu Xiu's thoughts.

Just then, a man dressed in a black robe and with a face full of scars stepped down from the carriage.

This man looks quite old, but because of his fleshy face, he doesn't actually look that old.

But Shu Xiu knew that this guy was at least fifty or sixty years old.

At this moment, Prince Zhao Yi of Guangling got off the carriage and saw the carriage sway and bounce up and down.

Even the horses pulling the carriage seemed much more relaxed.

Zhao Yi first glanced at Jiang Xuan, then looked at Shu Xiu.

However, he immediately looked away and when he looked at Jiang Xuan again, his face was full of a bright smile.

"Oh my, this must be King Jiang Xuan of Chu? Oh dear, my apologies for not recognizing you!"

As he spoke, Zhao Yi manipulated his fat body and swayed quickly as he walked over.

Jiang Xuan heard Zhao Yi's words and saw the other party walking over with his hands clasped in front of him, but there was no smile on his face.

Jiang Xuan looked at him calmly, then surprisingly spoke with a forced smile: "Is that so? I thought the Prince of Guangling already knew I was coming."

As he spoke, Jiang Xuan raised his chin and glanced at the main road across the Guangling River.

"I thought it was sent by the Prince of Guangling to welcome me."

Zhao Yi laughed loudly, pointed at the corpses in the distance, and then waved his hand: "That's definitely not me. If it were my people, why would I be waiting for you here?"

“I will certainly wait respectfully for your arrival, King of Chu, on the other side of the river.”

As he spoke, Zhao Yi slapped his thigh, a look of annoyance on his face: "Sigh, all these years, there have been people who think badly of me, so they've been plotting against me."

"But actually, I also want things to be better for Western Chu." He patted his large belly as he spoke: "King of Chu, look at me, I have devoted myself to the people of Western Chu, even to the point of death. Look how thin I have become."

Before Jiang Xuan could speak, Shu Xiu, who was standing to the side, was already somewhat unwilling.

After all, she was once a person of Western Chu, but later she entered the world of martial arts and knew that there were some things that she could not change or do.

However, she was still very concerned about the affairs of Western Chu and knew about Zhao Yi's actions.

It was because of him that all the women in the Western Chu palace who hadn't been killed were harmed.

In the end, those people all hanged themselves; very few survived.

Shu Xiu never expected that he, the dignified Prince of Guangling, would be so shameless.

It's absolutely laughable!

However, the Prince of Guangling seemed oblivious to the murderous intent in Shu Xiu's eyes. He chuckled and said, "I recently heard that your Xiangfan City has already agreed to a cooperation agreement with the imperial court?"

"Congratulations!" Zhao Yi clapped his hands, his fat face jiggling. "I heard it's Princess Suizhu. Oh, then we'll all be family, hahaha."

"When you get married, my hundreds of thousands of iron cavalry from Guangling will definitely celebrate for you in this Guangling territory."

Upon hearing his words, Jiang Xuan's lips curled up slightly.

Zhao Yi's way of speaking is quite interesting.

They brought up the peace talks between the two sides, as well as Princess Suizhu.

In Zhao Yi's view, the reason Jiang Xuan was willing to negotiate was because he didn't want to fight or break off relations immediately.

In addition, he said that the hundreds of thousands of Guangling cavalry under his command were also a threat.

That means don't even think about causing trouble here.

For example, just kill him.

After all, this is the Guangling River, the territory of the King of Guangling.

If something happens to Zhao Yi, there's absolutely no way it could be kept secret.
