Chapter 198 The brother-in-law was shocked and smashed the wooden table!After King Qi took off his black robe, his tall and sturdy figure coupled with his heroic face was so impressive that even if the two handsome guys Hou Qing and You Chuan were present, they would be overshadowed by King Qi in terms of momentum. "Finally, finally left." Li Maozhen stretched his arms and stretched his muscles. As one of the major princes of the Central Plains Dynasty, no one knew how much hardship and effort he had endured in order to learn the art of witchcraft in Twelve Caves. "Future Lord of the Twelve Caves, where are you going?" A clear, middle-aged man's voice suddenly sounded behind Li Maozhen. He was a burly man wearing a black robe. "Are you the only one here?" Li Maozhen asked slowly with his back to the man in black robe. "Isn't it enough for me to come here?" The black-robed man took off his hood to reveal a face covered with stubble. He smiled at Li Maozhen and said, "Li Maozhen, have you forgotten the rule of the Twelve Caves that you can only enter but not leave?" Li Maozhen turned around, looked at the man in front of him and said, "Master Eleven, the world is not settled yet, I can't retire yet." The Eleventh Cave Lord smiled and said, "Okay, leave the Meteoric Life Gu on you and I will let you go." Li Maozhen clenched his fist and said, "You can't keep me here."

The Eleventh Cave Master smiled faintly with his hands behind his back, saying, "For every Gu technique you learned in the Twelve Caves, I have a corresponding Gu technique to counter it. How come the disciple is so confident that he can defeat his master?" Li Maozhen pointed his toes and said calmly, "In terms of Gu techniques, I am not as good as you guys right now, but in terms of fists and feet, how many of you can beat me?" Swish, swish, swish! When the Eleventh Cave Master saw that Li Maozhen in front of him had actually teleported in front of him, his face changed slightly and he said, "You hid your strength before, how is that possible?" "How is it impossible? Raojiang is mysterious, but as the Central Plains that drove your Chiyou lineage here, its skills must be profound and extensive." While Li Maozhen was speaking, he had already appeared in front of the Lord of the Eleventh Cave. He then threw a punch with the force of wind and thunder, and a purple aura gushed out in response to his internal strength. The Lord of the Eleventh Cave narrowed his eyes slightly, crossed his arms, and a protective shield formed by white energy formed in front of him. boom! With one punch, the Eleventh Cave Lord retreated three steps and said in a deep voice: "The position of Tiangang!" "What? Can you still stop me?" Li Maozhen stood with his hands behind his back. The Eleventh Cave Lord looked at him with an unpleasant expression and said, "The Meteoric Gu is not invincible. Don't think that you can dominate the world just because you have mastered the Gu technique. The situation in the world is very treacherous and turbulent. Even if you are a Tiangang, if you stand on the wrong side, you will still die!" Li Maozhen laughed and said, "Take sides? Why should I, the King of Qi, take sides? My Fengxiang will always stand behind me. The world is in my hands and can be easily obtained." Seeing this, the Eleventh Cave Lord knew that he could not stop Li Maozhen from leaving, and then he was too lazy to persuade him anymore. He just shook his head slightly and said: "I hope you won't regret it. Take care of yourself!" The 11th Cave Lord immediately turned and left. He was in the late stage of the Great Heaven Realm and was no match for Li Maozhen. Even if the Great Cave Lord came, it was hard to say whether he could definitely defeat Li Maozhen, who possessed the Meteoric Life Gu. But how could the situation in the world be reversed by just Li Maozhen? The 11th Cave Lord couldn't help but chuckle. If it was really possible, then the 12 Caves wouldn't be hiding in the poor and bad Raojiang. At this time, a signal arrow was shot out from the dense forest, and a series of black shadows moved in the forest and quickly came in front of Li Maozhen. "Welcome back King Qi!" "Welcome back King Qi!" "Welcome back King Qi!" One by one, the soldiers wearing black armor and Qilin masks knelt on one knee in front of Li Maozhen. These people all belong to the most elite force under Li Maozhen, the Shadow Guards! After Li Maozhen found the Twelve Caves, the Shadow Guards came to station outside Raojiang so that Li Maozhen could seek their help at any time after leaving the Twelve Caves.

"Go to your base first." Li Maozhen said lightly, and with his hands behind his back, he appeared among the group of shadow guards in a flash. "Yes, King Qi." A shadow guard stood up and led the way for Li Maozhen. After they came out of the dense forest, there was a village only ten miles away. The shadow guard leader bowed and said, "King Qi, after you enter the Twelve Caves, I will lead my men to station here." Li Maozhen looked at the arrow tower outside the village and asked slowly, "Shadow, how many Shadow Guards are there?" Shadow replied, "Report to King Qi, five hundred men." "That's enough. Five hundred people can bring peace to the world!" Li Maozhen said confidently, and then followed the shadow guard into this temporary base. "Bring me all the intelligence from all over the world in recent years." Li Maozhen sat in the hall, and Shadow immediately ordered: "Come here, bring me all the intelligence we have collected in recent years." "How is Yun Ji?" Li Maozhen sat down, took a sip of tea, and asked while looking at the shadow. Shadow bowed his head and responded: "The Empress is doing well and has already taken control of Chang'an." Li Maozhen's eyes flashed with surprise, "Yun Ji counterattacked Zhu Wen and took back Chang'an City?" Shadow replied, "Yes, King Qi, now the Guanzhong area has fallen into the hands of the empress." At this time, two shadow guards had already walked in carrying a wooden box full of intelligence books. Li Maozhen immediately picked up a piece of intelligence and flipped through it while asking, "What major events have happened in the Central Plains during the years I have been away? How is Zhu Wen? How is Li Keyong?" Shadow replied: "Zhu Wen proclaimed himself emperor six years ago and founded Daliang." Li Maozhen put down the teacup heavily and said, "This beast has indeed proclaimed himself emperor, but he is not fit to be an emperor. Once he takes the throne, I'm afraid his licentious nature will be exposed." "King Qi is right," Shadow replied, "After Zhang's death, Zhu Wen became emperor. After that, he changed from the heroic ruler he was in the past. He indulged in sensual pleasures, eating, drinking, having fun, and having sex with his harem, and even did not let his own daughter-in-law go." Li Maozhen sneered when he heard this and said, "He made his fortune by relying on Zhang. If there was no Zhang, there would be no Zhu Quanzhong. How could he not be afraid?" "It's just playing with their daughter-in-law. Will Zhu Youwen and Zhu Yougui be willing?" Li Maozhen was deeply impressed by these two brothers. His final battle with Zhu Wen was caused by these two brothers. He was defeated and lost control of Guanzhong for a time, and could only retreat to Fengxiang. "Reporting to King Qi, the Dark Emperor Zhu Yougui's body was deformed and turned into a child due to his practice. Not only did he not have any interest in women, he even personally sent his wife to Zhu Wen." "Is there such a thing?" Li Maozhen raised his eyebrows. He had heard of sending concubines as gifts, but this was the first time he saw someone sending a wife as a gift. "In addition, Ghost King Zhu Youwen was obsessed with martial arts and didn't care about his wife. So the attitudes of these two made Zhu Wen even more licentious. He even committed adultery in the palace and didn't attend court for several days." As Shadow finished speaking, Li Maozhen laughed and said, "Zhu Wen and Li Zhen and others colluded with each other to plot power and usurp the throne. Now that they are in power, they are doing evil and being licentious. God is really helping me. When I return to Qi and make a call, the day of destroying Zhu Wen will be just around the corner!" Shadow looked at Li Maozhen, who was full of confidence, with a hesitant look on his face. "Hmm? What do you want to say? Why do you look so hesitant?" Li Maozhen keenly noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with Shadow's expression. "Reporting to Prince Qi, Zhu Wen is dead." Shadow said with a folded hand, "And he died in the capital of Daliang, the Luoyang Palace!" "What?" Li Maozhen's eyes narrowed slightly, and then he quickly reacted and said, "Zhu Wen died in the palace, so it was a coup. Was it Zhu Yougui or Zhu Youwen?" "Neither." Shadow shook his head slowly and said a name that surprised Li Maozhen very much, "It's Li Xingyun."

"Who is Li Xingyun?" This was Li Maozhen's first reaction. After not appearing in the public for a few years, he felt as if he had fallen out of fashion. "Li Xingyun, a descendant of the Li Tang Dynasty, used his Tang Dynasty bad guys to sneak into the Luoyang Palace and beheaded Zhu Wen in front of all the civil and military officials of Daliang. At the same time, the Tang Dynasty bad guys also killed Zhu Yougui, the leader of the Xuanming Sect, in the palace." "Wait, wait a minute." Li Maozhen waved his hand to signal Shadow to shut up, and Shadow dug out the relevant information and handed it to Li Maozhen. Li Maozhen took the information and muttered to himself, "Didn't Zhu Wen kill all the descendants of Li Tang? How could there be any orphans still alive?" As for the Bad Commander, Li Maozhen naturally knew about it. He learned the news about the Longquan treasure from the Bad Commander. In order to obtain the Longquan treasure, he must open the Miaojiang Holy Gu. This is one of the reasons why Li Maozhen traveled thousands of miles to the Twelve Caves of Raojiang to learn Gu techniques. Shadow replied, "King Qi, Li Xingyun is indeed a descendant of Li Tang, otherwise the Tang Dynasty's bad people would not be loyal to him. He was the one who planned the killing of Zhu Wen." Li Maozhen just felt a little unfair in his chest. Zhu Wen defeated him and made him lose his weapons and armor. He didn't expect that now he didn't wait for him to take revenge, but died at the hands of a young man who had just started out. Li Maozhen snorted coldly and said, "It is a pity that I was not able to kill Zhu Wen with my own hands!" Li Maozhen then glanced at the information in his hand. "Heavenly thunder descends, heaven helps Li Tang? Haha, isn't this intelligence a bit too far-fetched?" Li Maozhen threw the intelligence report on the table, and Shadow bowed and said, "Replying to King Qi, I have sent people to verify this matter. It was Zhang Tianshi of the Tianshi Mansion who helped Li Xingyun, which created the illusion of heavenly thunder descending." "Tianshi Mansion, Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Sutra, have the Taoist priests from Tianshi Mansion finally come down the mountain?" Li Maozhen narrowed his eyes slightly. The strength of all the Taoist priests in Tianshi Mansion were not weak, and the Five Thunders Heavenly Heart Sutra they practiced was one of the top martial arts in the world. Shadow continued, "Replying to King Qi, a few days ago, Li Xingyun's good friend, the young master of Tianshi Mansion, Zhang Zifan, was captured by the Holy Master of Jin State's Tongwen Pavilion. It was Li Xingyun who led the people of Tianshi Mansion and the three corpse ancestors of Xuanming Sect to attack Tongwen Pavilion and rescued Zhang Zifan." Shadow's words successfully made Li Maozhen stunned again. "Li Xingyun and the corpse ancestor of the Xuanming Sect worked together to rescue the young master of the Tianshi Mansion? How did Li Xingyun get entangled with the corpse ancestor of the Xuanming Sect, and the two sides reached a cooperative relationship?" Shadow was silent for a moment, then cupped his hands and said, "I am also investigating this matter, but the fact that the Xuanming Sect Corpse Ancestor and Li Xingyun worked together to rescue people is a fact that everyone in Taiyuan City has seen." Li Maozhen pondered and said, "If it was them, then it is possible. None of the four corpse ancestors has a normal brain. If they can be controlled by Li Xingyun, there must be a deal between the two sides." Shadow complimented, "King Qi is wise." Li Maozhen snorted and said, "Being able to command several corpse ancestors, this Li Xingyun is quite capable. However, with his status, if he cooperates with the State of Jin, he can get Li Keyong's support with just a word. Why does he need to go to Tongwenguan in person to save people? How stupid!" Shadow heard this and said cautiously, "Replying to King Qi, Li Xingyun has formed a united front with our Qi country. Last winter, he implemented the equal-field system in Guanzhong, Fengxiang and other places and restarted the military system in Guanzhong. This also made Li Xingyun quite popular among the people in Guanzhong and Fengxiang." Li Maozhen was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "I am willing to risk my life for my brother. Li Xingyun is also a man of character." "So, Li Xingyun has cooperated with my Qi country. Now my Qi country is the legitimate seat of the Li Tang Dynasty." Li Maozhen's eyes flashed with a gleam of light. "I originally just wanted Yun Ji to guard the family business, but I didn't expect her to do so well. Joining forces with Li Xingyun is really a brilliant move." Li Maozhen smiled faintly, as if he had mastered everything in the world. "That's great. We should plan carefully and slowly, and the world will be at peace!" At this time, Yingzi lowered his head and dared not speak, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was necessary to explain to King Qi, otherwise when King Qi arrived in Chang'an, his head would fall to the ground. "Your Majesty, I have something else to tell you." Shadow said solemnly, and even Li Maozhen was a little curious, "What is it?" Li Maozhen subconsciously felt that what Shadow was going to say was definitely not a trivial matter. After all, Shadow did not have this kind of reaction when he mentioned Zhu Wen's death just now. Shadow's performance made Li Maozhen feel vaguely uneasy. "To King Qi, the Empress and Li Xingyun met in Yuzhou, and they formed an alliance since then. They often exchanged letters. Later, the Empress led her troops to attack Liang State, and the Ghost King attacked the camp and seriously injured the Empress. Li Xingyun cured the Empress's injuries... Since then, the two of them, the two of them..." "Go on!" Li Maozhen suddenly exerted force with his right hand that was pressing on the table. "Since then, the two seem to have developed a secret crush on each other. Now in Guanzhong Fengxiang, there are rumors that the empress is already Li Xingyun's woman." As Shadow finished his words, with a bang, the wooden table in Li Maozhen's hand shattered into pieces and turned into debris on the ground! "Yun Ji is a person of high status. How can you allow them to speak nonsense and damage your reputation? Why don't you control these rumors?"

Shadow lowered his head and said, "The Empress doesn't seem to care about these rumors, and Li Xingyun has been staying in the Empress's Pavilion every day since then. The two of them are in love with each other, and the rumors have long been confirmed..." Li Maozhen felt his eyes go dark, and three words kept flashing in his mind, "It's over..." Originally, he was still complacent, thinking that Qi State had Li Xingyun, which was even more powerful. Now, it seemed that Li Xingyun had Qi State. He left Twelve Caves, but his home was robbed. One can imagine how Li Maozhen felt... Li Maozhen raised his head slightly and sighed, then his expression returned to its stern state, "Is Li Xingyun sincere to Yun Ji?" Shadow cupped his hands and said, "Li Xingyun handed over all the affairs of Guanzhong to the Empress and moved the Bad People's headquarters to Chang'an. This is an incredible trust in her." Li Maozhen was silent, and his clenched fists loosened slightly. After a long while, he sighed, "This... is a bit difficult to deal with." (End of this chapter)
