Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

Li Moxuan sheathed the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, replaced it with the Cloud-Shattering City-Breaking Halberd, and addressed Huo Jiu'an and the others beside him.

"Of course, how could I let you eat all this meat by yourself?"

Behind Huo Jiu'an, Huo Qubing, exuding a murderous aura, stepped out, followed by Yan Liang, Wen Chou, Wei Yan, and Zhang Xiu.

"Pharmacist!"

Li Jing appeared beside Li Moxuan, who then shouldered the Cloud-Shattering City-Breaking Halberd.

"When it comes to military campaigns, I am no match for you. Therefore, I entrust this annihilation battle to you. Everyone, including myself, will follow your command!"

Li Jing's eyes blazed with fighting spirit as he cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, this humble general will not fail in his mission!"

"Well!"

Li Moxuan casually waved his hand, and a white-hoofed black warhorse appeared before him amidst flames. This was the warhorse that Li Shimin had given him.

He mounted his horse, glared at Cao Cao, and said, "Leave that guy to me, and the rest of the scum are yours!"

"They actually stole my target..."

Huo Qubing sighed, and could only turn his gaze to Dian Wei. He spurred his horse and followed Li Moxuan; he couldn't let this new target be snatched away...

Chapter 168: The Coward

"Prime Minister, we are surrounded!"

A Red Dragon Army soldier ran up to report, followed by Su Dingfang and Li Yuanba leading the Mo Dao Army and the Anxi Army.

The left wing was led by Guo Ziyi, Li Cunxiao and Wang Zhongsi, and the right wing was led by Li Ji, Xue Rengui and Cheng Yaojin, and the Xuanjia Army.

Directly ahead was the Imperial Guard—the Shence Army—led by Li Moxuan…

Whether it's generals or soldiers, Cao Cao is now at a complete disadvantage...

Xu Chu stood in front of the Shence Army and slammed his fist into the ground, shouting, "Earth Fire Thunder!"

Instantly, numerous towering pillars of fire erupted from the ground, engulfing many Shence Army soldiers...

A murderous aura suddenly swept over him. Xu Chu drew his Crimson Tiger Hammer to block Lü Bu's halberd and retreated several steps, the ground beneath his feet collapsing.

Xu Chu shouldered the Crimson Tiger Hammer and said in a deep voice, "If you want to hurt the Prime Minister, you'll have to step over my dead body first!"

"Don't worry, you won't live much longer!"

Lu Bu turned his head slightly, and Li Moxuan had already ridden his white-hoofed eagle across the area, charging towards Cao Cao with his Cloud-Shattering and City-Breaking Halberd.

"I'll clear the way for you this once!"

The closer Li Moxuan got to Cao Cao, the more frenzied the Red Dragon Army soldiers surging around him became, more daring than a suicide squad, and they did everything they could to stop him.

Fortunately, he had some Shence Army soldiers who followed him, but as Li Moxuan got closer and closer to Cao Cao, fewer and fewer Shence Army soldiers were able to keep up with him...

At that moment, a shadow spear suddenly thrust out from beside him, sweeping away a group of Red Dragon Army soldiers who rushed at him.

Li Moxuan was a little surprised. He glanced at her out of the corner of his eye and saw that it was Lü Xiangong. She had actually followed on horseback!

Why did you come here?

Li Moxuan slowed down slightly, allowing Lü Xiangong to catch up. At the same time, he swung the Cloud-Shattering City-Breaking Halberd, and a red flame dragon surged out from it, swallowing the surrounding Red Dragon Army.

"I said I would protect you..."

Lu Xiangong pulled the blood-stained Shadow Spear from the body of a Red Dragon Army soldier and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Li Moxuan was deep in enemy territory, surrounded by enemy troops. It took Lü Xiangong a lot of effort to catch up with him.

“I appreciate your kindness, but you didn’t need to come along… Surrounded by so many soldiers, even if you were Zhao Zilong of Changshan, you probably wouldn’t be able to break through…”

"If we can't get out, we can't get out!"

Lu Xiangong bit his lip, his eyes resolute, "Either we fight our way out, or we die here..."

She paused, then added, "Besides, what if you die here? Wouldn't I be unable to go back?"

"Don't worry, I will definitely bring you home safely!"

Li Moxuan retracted the Flame Dragon into the Cloud-Shattering City-Breaking Halberd. "Now that you're in, stick close to me and don't fall behind!"

"No, don't underestimate me!"

"You brat, prepare to die!"

Dian Wei leaped up, wielding his Mad Shark Twin Halberds, and slashed down at Li Moxuan and Lü Xiangong.

"Armored Lions Charge!"

Huo Qubing's figure transformed into a thunderous lion, pouncing on Dian Wei. "I heard you're the one who can defeat ten thousand men in Cao Cao's camp?"

His long sword crackled with lightning as he stared at Dian Wei. "Perfect, I'll test your strength today!"

"Go away!"

Dian Wei had absolutely no interest in fighting Huo Qubing; all he wanted to do was protect Cao Cao.

"Trying to run? No way!"

Huo Qubing swung his sword at Dian Wei, shouting, "Listen to the thunder!"

A bolt of lightning instantly cleaved a huge crack in the ground in front of Dian Wei, and countless Red Dragon Army soldiers were swallowed up by the lightning flash.

Li Moxuan and Lü Xiangong had already rushed in front of Cao Cao. Li Moxuan stopped his horse, while Lü Xiangong was busy dealing with the Red Dragon Army soldiers who were rushing towards them.

"You traitor Cao, aren't you going to get serious?"

Upon hearing this, Cao Cao couldn't help but laugh. With a wave of his hand, the Red Dragon Army soldiers around him retreated one after another, and Lu Xiangong was finally able to rest for a while, but he dared not relax his vigilance in the slightest.

Cao Cao sized up Li Moxuan. "You call me a traitor, but aren't you the same kind of person as me?"

"fart!"

Li Moxuan frowned. "I prefer young girls to married women. How does that make me the same type of person as you?"

"Cough cough cough..."

Cao Cao couldn't hold back and choked on his words, while Lü Xiangong, standing to the side, nodded thoughtfully, as if that were indeed the case...

I'm talking about ambition!

Cao Cao patted his chest and stared at Li Moxuan, "The ambition you possess is not something a young man should have..."

"If I'm not mistaken, you must have possessed your descendants, just like me, right? Otherwise, how could you summon such a large army?"

"Perhaps I should call you by your real name, Emperor Taizong of Tang, Li Shimin, right?"

Upon hearing his words, Lü Xiangong immediately became alert, looking at Li Moxuan with a scrutinizing expression. Could he really have been possessed?

Li Moxuan was a little speechless. Did Cao Cao think that Li Shimin was as selfish as him?

"Hehe, this is getting more and more interesting..."

Li Shimin, watching the show from inside Chang'an, smiled and picked up a cup of tea. He was curious to see just how many tricks Cao Cao had up his sleeve.

"You wouldn't really be..."

"Of course not!"

Li Moxuan slapped Lü Xiangong on the head and said irritably, "You believe everything he says? Have some self-judgment, okay?"

"oh oh……"

Lu Xiangong covered her head; she was certain, it couldn't be...

Cao Cao, however, did not think so. He believed that Li Moxuan in front of him must be Li Shimin. Otherwise, how could a mere brat have gotten himself into such a predicament?

"Li Shimin, even if I, Cao Mengde, am a villain, I am an open and honest villain, at least not as hypocritical and cowardly as you..."

Li Moxuan was too lazy to pay attention to him, since he wasn't being insulted. But Li Shimin in Chang'an couldn't stand it. He was just sitting at home when trouble came out of nowhere. Who could tolerate this?

Cao Mengde, right?

Li Shimin's eyes turned cold. It seems you want to try and outmaneuver me!

"Go ahead and pretend if you want!"

Accompanied by flames, the Ten Kings of Hell appeared in Cao Cao's hands. "I've long heard of your reputation. Today, I'll test your skills!"

As soon as he finished speaking, flames erupted from Cao Cao's body, a pair of dragon horns grew from his head, and his spirit robes transformed into fiery dragon scale armor.

A vertical dragon eye appeared on his chest, and a dragon tail extended from his back, surrounded by hellfire.

Is this... the Fire Dragon King form?

Li Moxuan glanced at him. "You don't only have this form, do you? Where's the Flame God of Slaughter?"

That form possesses the power of gods from countless worlds. Could Cao Cao be unable to use it?

That would be so lame...

"Don't rush, let's defeat my Fire Dragon King first!"

Cao Cao became even more certain that the person in front of him was Li Shimin; otherwise, how could he know about the Flame God form he had obtained from Cao Yanbing?

Li Moxuan held the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword in his left hand and the Cloud-Shattering City-Breaking Halberd in his right, a glint of light flashing in his eyes, "I'm afraid if you don't use it, you won't have another chance..."

Chapter 169: Emperor Ziwei

Li Moxuan's pupils emitted golden light, and his whole body exuded powerful spiritual energy. At the same time, five pillars of fire—red, gold, white, black, and blue—rose up around him and enveloped him.

The Purple Star Chart appeared and disappeared in the sky, and the five-colored fire pillars merged together, eventually transforming into a huge purple fire pillar, with purple starlight falling around it like snowflakes.

"What...what's going on?"

Everyone was drawn to this strange sight. Lü Xiangong, who was closest to the scene, was the most shocked. She could feel the oppressive aura emanating from the towering purple pillar of fire.

Soon, the pillar of fire transformed into specks of purple starlight that drifted away, and Li Moxuan hovered in mid-air.

His short black hair transformed into a long, flowing white cascade over his shoulders, the strands shimmering with a cool silver luster amidst the misty halo.

Li Moxuan wore a black crown, inlaid with dark purple crystals, the patterns of which resembled ancient incantations, flowing faintly in the dim light.

He was clad in black armor, the plates of which were layered like dragon scales, with the edges outlined in a dark purple vine-like pattern.

His face was outlined by purple starlight, making it deep and cold. As he slowly opened his eyes, he revealed a pair of golden pupils, his gaze as if he had drawn in cold stars, calm yet sharp.
