All Heavens: From Joy of Life to The Great Feng Night Watchman

Page 387

Having grown up in the inner palace, Zhao Fengya rarely left the palace, so she certainly wouldn't let such a scene of masters fighting go unnoticed.

The emperor only had one daughter, who was spoiled since childhood and would not listen to anyone except the emperor and empress.

As they spoke, the group had already reached the mountainside and seen the eye of the hurricane and torrential rain.

A tornado several dozen feet high, accompanied by lightning, blinded people even a hundred feet away, and sand and stones flew all over the mountainside.

Zhao Fengya exclaimed in surprise, "My God, this is the power of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm!"

Tai'an City is full of hidden talents, but poor Zhao Fengya has never seen a master fight.

Watching the clash between the two great celestial beings, Zhang Heng was also deeply moved. "The one with the black hair is almost done for."

"The one with the white hair is still more capable; he handles it with complete ease."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng was bleeding from his mouth and nose, having exerted almost all his strength, but he still couldn't hurt Xuanyuan Dapan.

Xuanyuan Dapan laughed loudly amidst the torrential rain, "Hahaha! Didn't you have an epiphany?"

"Try going up another level. If you can reach the realm of a terrestrial immortal, perhaps you'll have a chance to hurt me!"

Xuanyuan Jingcheng knew that if he forcibly elevated himself to the level of a terrestrial immortal, his combat power would certainly be stronger, but he would also be exhausted.

Xuan Yuan Qingfeng was so anxious that tears streamed down her face, but she couldn't help at all. She knew that this was a desperate struggle between the father and daughter.

She slowly drew her longsword and placed it against her own neck. If Xuanyuan Jingcheng were killed, she would not hesitate to commit suicide.

Just then, a young man's voice came from the top of the trees not far away.

"If one Confucian Grand Celestial Phenomenon can't kill you, another one might just be able to!"

Xuanyuan Dapan looked back and saw the three of them at the top of the trees, seemingly riding the waves as they came towards him.

A young man in fine clothes was accompanied by a young man in a turban and a middle-aged man with a fair complexion and no beard.

Li Chang'an, accompanied by Zhuge Liang and Cao Zhengchun, arrived at Xuanyuan Jingcheng for their appointment.

Li Chang'an helped Xuan Yuan Jingcheng eliminate Xuan Yuan Da Pan in exchange for the loyalty of the Xuan Yuan family.

Although Xuanyuan Jingcheng's cultivation level is currently unstable, he is still a great celestial being of the Confucian school, and the Xuanyuan family holds an extremely high position in the martial arts world.

More importantly, the Xuanyuan family is located in the heart of Liyang, making them perfect as Li Chang'an's moles.

Xuanyuan Dapan exclaimed in surprise, "Who are you, and what are your intentions?!"

He keenly sensed that the cultivation levels of these three individuals were all above the Martial Celestial Realm!

The one who just spoke was Zhuge Liang, who was also a Confucian scholar specializing in celestial phenomena. After he finished speaking, people were already behind the Xuanyuan Great Rock.

With Zhuge Liang's addition, Xuanyuan Jingcheng's ability to manipulate celestial phenomena became even stronger.

Zhuge Liang said calmly, "The ancestor Xuanyuan has gone astray. Such a harmful and self-destructive path should be cut off as soon as possible!"

As Li Chang'an approached, he noticed the two sword gods in the distance. "Gentlemen, you two shouldn't interfere in this matter, right?"

Li Chungang chuckled, "I don't care, it's up to Xu Fengnian's relatives to decide whether they will."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Deng Tai'a, "That's Li Chang'an, who abused your nephew twice. Do you want to fight him?"

Deng Tai'a cupped his hands in greeting to Li Chang'an and said politely, "Your Excellency fought to a draw with the Old Sword God. This is nothing remarkable. I could do it too."

"However, I wholeheartedly agree with Your Excellency's decision to prevent the Old Sword God from opening the Heavenly Gate and not allowing immortals to descend to the mortal realm."

"I'm only here to help Xu Xiao with something, and I don't want to get involved in anything unrelated."

Li Chang'an nodded as well. This was another person like Li Chungang who needed to repay a favor to Beiliang.

However, Li Chang'an had a much better impression of Deng Tai'a than he did of Xu Fengnian.

In the original work, Deng Tai'a reached the realm of celestial beings, guarding the Heavenly Gate and slaying immortals to prevent them from descending to the mortal realm.

This is far more appealing than those claims about being the reincarnation of Lu Zu, Zhenwu, or the White Emperor.

Zhao Fengya, standing under the tree, pointed at the three newly arrived people and asked in surprise, "Who are those three, and what is their strength?"

Zhang Heng narrowed his eyes, looking at the strength of their true energy that kept their clothes dry, and couldn't help but marvel.

"The true energy of all three is above the Martial Celestial Realm!"

Upon seeing so many experts, Zhao Fengya's first reaction was excitement.

"This trip was definitely worthwhile, to have met three celestial experts at once!"

In stark contrast to the emotions of the two young men, Sun Diaosi was terrified, while Han Diaosi, the head of the twelve great eunuchs, was only a Dazhixuan.

The simultaneous appearance of three experts at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm is no simple matter; even the Northern Liang Royal Palace might not possess such strength.

"Young master, we must leave this place immediately!"

"The person who can gather so many experts at the same time, and is so young, could very well be Li Chang'an!"

Upon hearing the name Li Chang'an, Zhao Fengya couldn't help but shudder.

Although she was unaware that the young eunuch from Liyang had noticed Li Chang'an's rising fortune, she also knew that Li Chang'an was even more dangerous than Xu Xiao.

This Tang emperor, Li Chang'an, was almost in a semi-independent state, and he rarely paid attention to the various imperial edicts.

“What are you afraid of, Sun Diaosi? Do you think I would be afraid of Li Chang’an? I have never offended him, and besides, I am hiding my identity now.”

A cold glint flashed in Zhang Heng's eyes, but he remained silent.

As a nobleman of the fallen Dongyue Kingdom, he had already planned to seek refuge with Li Chang'an this time.

Since he had no relatives or friends in Tai'an City and was suspected by the Li Yang royal family, he might as well directly seek refuge with Li Chang'an, who was also a member of the Spring and Autumn royal family.

Zhang Heng knew he had neither the ability nor the obsession to restore his country, so he figured he might as well leave Liyang and live a more comfortable life there.

Sun Diaosi's words reminded him that if he wanted to join Li Chang'an, Princess Suizhu would be the best way to pledge his loyalty.

I've heard that Li Chang'an has a fondness for beautiful women, and Princess Suizhu is no less beautiful. However, she is the most beloved daughter of Emperor Liyang. I wonder if Li Chang'an would dare to abduct her.

At this point, Zhang Heng had already made his plans: first, he would visit Li Chang'an privately, and then decide whether or not to use Zhao Fengya as a pledge of loyalty.

Princess Suizhu was clearly unaware of any danger and had no idea that her bodyguards were planning to use her as a pledge of allegiance.

"The old man with the white beard is dying!"

She suddenly exclaimed in surprise, because Zhuge Liang and Xuanyuan Jingcheng had joined forces to break through Xuanyuan Dapan's protective aura.

"Fuck!"

Bolts of lightning descended from the sky, and enormous fireballs continued to burn fiercely even in the torrential rain!

Without any protective inner energy, Xuanyuan Dapan could only frantically dodge the wind and rain.

"The two of you Confucian Grand Celestials, working together, are actually able to rival a Martial Grand Celestial!"

Li Chang'an said from afar, "Kongming just said that you have gone down the wrong path, so you are bound to fail."

"Confucianism values ​​cultivating righteousness, and as the saying goes, evil cannot prevail over good. How can you not be defeated!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Dapan immediately felt a chill run from the top of his head to the soles of his feet!

So, the Confucian Grand Celestial Phenomenon actually counters his cultivation technique!

Xuanyuan Jingcheng was in a hurry to rescue his daughter and did not wait for his cultivation level to stabilize, so he was no match for him.

But now, with Zhuge Liang working together, the two great Confucian celestial beings have joined forces, and the situation has been reversed in an instant!

Thunderbolts and fireballs rained down on the ground, and Xuanyuan Dapan was blocked by hurricanes when he tried to escape.

When he chased after them today, he was full of confidence, thinking it was just a small struggle by Xuanyuan Jingcheng and his daughter.

It's unbelievable that Xuanyuan Jingcheng had such a powerful ally hidden away.

"Jingcheng, let's talk this out. After all, we're family."

"I agree to let Qingfeng become the head of the family. I will retire to the mountains and forests and no longer concern myself with the affairs of the Xuanyuan family. What do you think?"

As Xuanyuan Dapan fled in a disheveled state, he actually began to beg for mercy and make peace.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning struck down from the sky, hitting half of Xuanyuan Dapan's body.

Amidst the surging thunder, Xuan Yuan Jingcheng's icy voice also rang out.

"Please, Ancestor, prepare to die!"

Chapter 233 Hong Xixiang Descends the Mountain, Xu Zhihu's Intentions

As Xuanyuan Jingcheng's pent-up anger erupted, the vicious and despicable Xuanyuan Dapan was finally torn apart by heavenly lightning and fireballs.

Overjoyed, Xuan Yuan Qingfeng wept tears of joy. His long sword clattered to the ground, and the dark clouds that had been hanging over the Xuan Yuan family finally dissipated.

"father!"

She excitedly threw herself into Xuanyuan Jingcheng's arms, feeling the good fortune of surviving this ordeal.

When Li Chang'an and Cao Zhengchun approached the two men, Xuanyuan Jingcheng immediately released his daughter and then pulled her down to kneel together.

"Xuanyuan Jingcheng is very grateful for Your Highness Tang's righteous assistance!"

Hearing his father say this, the clever Xuanyuan Qingfeng guessed his father's plan.

He must have made contact with the Tang Prince's Mansion and already pledged allegiance to them, which is why Li Chang'an sent people to help eliminate Xuan Yuan Da Pan.
