Chapter 88 General Xue will win the battle!
Next to the second son of the Duke's Mansion, Changsun Wuchou's sister was also wearing hunting clothes to accompany him. Unlike the high-spirited girl, Changsun Wugou was a little worried at the moment and whispered, "It's just that we bypassed the Duke's team and came here alone. Is it really okay?"

Li Zhaowen waved the whip in his hand casually and replied:
"What does it matter?"

"It is enough that there is already a second young master in the carriage. Besides, father should not want to see me now." When the girl mentioned this, she was a little unhappy. Her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. She looted many treasures and geomancy maps from the Tuyuhun king's tent and handed them over to her father.

At this moment, she simply hoped that the Duke's Mansion could stand more stable. She was considering her father and brother. She was obviously happy and thought that her father and brother would approve of her. However, she was criticized by her father and brother. Her father seemed extremely unhappy. She even saw a trace of panic on his face, and then he criticized her harshly.

Even her brother said, explicitly or implicitly, that she was too reckless and caused trouble for the Duke's Mansion.

After several negotiations ended in a bad mood, she simply came out on her own.

He was holding a whip and pointing at the woods ahead, as if he was commanding everyone:
"But today, the world is divided among warlords. A hegemonic country like Tuyuhun will be destroyed in a blink of an eye. When Tuyuhun was powerful, the thirty-six tribes surrendered, and Ying and Chen had to treat them with the same level of courtesy. But now the country is destroyed, and the Dangxiang people have risen up, becoming the laughing stock of the world."

"Even Tuyuhun is like this, and my family is just the Duke's Mansion of Ying State."

"To guard the border for him, the world is in turmoil, if you don't advance, you will retreat. If you just want to hold on to your family business, I'm afraid you won't even be able to bear this. Why is father so cautious?"

Zhang Sun Wu Gou said: "The Duke controls the family's rise and fall, so he naturally needs to be cautious in doing things."

"Erlang, don't tell anyone else what you said."

The girl with the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm only telling you this."

"This time you and I came out alone, away from your brother. I just want to see with my own eyes and make friends with Li Guanyi. This way he will know who I am and I will know who he is, and we will not be affected by worldly identities and see the true character of heroes."

"go!"

........................

Li Guanyi lowered his eyes slightly. Changsun Wuchou had gone back a few days ago. He was in Jiangzhou City to receive the team from the Duke's Mansion. Li Guanyi himself had a good impression of the second young master.

No one can give Wang Xi such a big gift.

Li Guanyi will have a good impression of him.

If there will be a better gift later.

Then Li Guanyi felt that his favorability would skyrocket.

I just don't know what he looks like, whether he is handsome or a tall and strong son of a military hero.

Li Guanyi looked down and saw a letter written by the eldest lady, saying that she had been to Jiangzhou City many times and had found some interesting places. When he arrived in Jiangzhou City, she would take him there.

She said that her aunt had heard about Li Guanyi's talent for poetry and hoped to receive a poem from him. At the end, Li Guanyi saw Xue Shuangtao and said, "I heard that your birthday is coming soon, Guanyi. I can't leave the palace. I was planning to congratulate you, but I don't know when the letter will be delivered."

'I picked a spring flower as a gift for you.'

Only then did Li Guanyi understand the meaning of the flower in the letter.

He looked at the flower whose petals were well preserved and obviously took a lot of effort, and smiled slightly, saying, "Miss, instead of giving me such an artistic gift, it would be more cost-effective for you to give me some silver." Although he said this, he still carefully preserved the flower.

He took out the silver from the rhino horn bag and threw it on the table.

Change that flower and put it in there and carry it with you.

It's a gift after all.

But, birthday...

Li Guanyi had experienced so many things during this period of time that he almost forgot. These days were his birthday and he was already fourteen years old. In fact, he had been in this world for fourteen years and on the run for eleven years.

It has been eleven years since my father and mother died and were burned in Jiangzhou.

When Li Guanyi saw what was mentioned in the eldest lady's letter, he naturally had to meet the eldest lady's request. Besides, Mr. Xue was very kind to him. It was just a poem. Although Li Guanyi was a military man and was not good at writing poems, he had a lot in his mind.

Thanks for reciting the assignment.

Li Guan thought about it and wrote a poem to show that he had only heard about it on the road.

Write the original author's name to the young lady as if it were a story.

Finally, he wrote a blessing, saying that he would arrive in Jiangzhou City soon and would go to find her then. Of course, it would be most likely that the eldest lady would come to find him, after all, she could not enter the palace. He folded the letter and gave it to Mr. Xue, asking him to send it back.

There are still three days left.

We will go to Jiangzhou City in three days. That city is more than 300 miles away from Guanyi City.

If you add that the road is difficult and winding around the mountains, it will take even more time.

It takes a day or two to ride a horse.

There was no way to go back and forth quickly at that time, so Li Guanyi had to defeat General Xue before that.

Get the secret realm of General Xue.

Afterwards, he went to the capital of Jiangzhou to find Zu Wenyuan to repair the "Huangji Jingshi Shu", and went to find [Si Ming] to ask his aunt for the method of practicing the Dharma.

........................

Under the stream of Guanyi City, in the secret realm of Xue family.

General Xue held up his weapon, looked at Li Guanyi in front of him, and smiled slightly, "You really refuse to admit defeat. You come looking for me again so soon. It seems that you have encountered some problems recently. Are you anxious to leave Guanyi City? So you plan to defeat me?"

Li Guanyi said: "It's still uncertain who will win or lose!"

General Xue shook his head: "No, you win."

Li Guan was stunned.

Xue Shen raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said, "Such self-confidence really amazes me. Compared with thick skin and blind self-confidence, you are much better than me."

Li Guanyi grinned.

He knew that this man would never say a good word.

With a flick of his wrist, the spear suddenly thrust out.

General Xue stood there, holding the halberd in one hand and blocking it at random, then pressed down with his backhand, raised his eyebrows and said, "Not bad, more skillful than before. Do you want to raise the stakes this time? If you can let me take the initiative to attack."

"Even if you win."

"Don't regret it."

Li Guanyi suddenly took a step forward, and the weapon in his hand whistled violently.

A force several times greater than before violently erupted.

The power that warriors, or even ordinary people, can unleash is not their limit. It's just that their bodies cannot withstand the theoretical limit of human muscle strength and will hurt themselves. However, golden muscles and jade bones directly increase the upper limit of the body's tolerance, allowing warriors to reach the theoretical limit of reckless explosion.

God Xue's pupils contracted.

In the state of suppression, with his strength in the entry state, he couldn't suppress it with one hand!

Li Guanyi grinned.

My skills are no match for this godly general who has conquered the world, so I have to try another approach.

This is the beauty of numbers!
old man!
General Xue, take a half step back.

Only by clamping the handle with the elbow could the horrible burst of force be stopped.

The relaxed look on General Xue's face disappeared. He saw the young man in front of him suddenly leap up. His body seemed to be golden and jade-colored, his arms were muscular, and he held the halberd in his hands. After a pause, he suddenly chopped it down fiercely.

This explosive force is too strong.

Even the handle of the halberd turned into an arc.

God Xue held the halberd in his hand horizontally.

It's not that he couldn't counter this move with skills, but even if he could, he still had to take it head on. There was no other reason, this move abandoned many techniques and purely pursued the maximum degree of explosiveness. With such a degree of explosiveness, when General Xue entered the stance, he couldn't help but groan.

He raised his eyes and looked at the energy in Li Guanyi's body.

I thought about the opponents I had faced before and recognized this kind of physical physique.

"Golden muscles and jade bones, dragon tendons and tiger marrow?"

"What a...monster."

Master Xue moved his body and directed Li Guanyi's halberd to another direction. His moves were both agile and powerful. This time, he was as graceful as a mountain breeze. He used pure skill to eliminate the inertia of his moves and turned it into the power of a forward stab, stabbing forward.

As soon as Li Guan landed on the ground, he exerted force throughout his body and twisted violently.

Relying solely on his current physical strength, he managed to reverse the inertia of his moves. The halberd swept out.

When General Xue thrust his halberd forward, the sound of it breaking through the air was as subtle as the evening breeze.

Li Guanyi swept across, and the sound of breaking through the air was extremely fierce, like a tiger's roar.

The two halberds thrust out and intertwined violently, emitting bursts of whistling sounds. General Xue's moves became more and more complicated. Even if it was just defense, it could be seen that he was gradually using his real skills. Li Guanyi made up for the gap in skills with his golden muscles and jade bones.

Only then did he realize it.

If he did not have such a physique, the moves of General Xue in front of him would make it impossible for him to defeat him even after a year of fighting. Every time, General Xue left him room, and every time made Li Guanyi feel that he was just a little bit short, just a little bit short, and he could catch up with him as long as he tried a little bit harder.

But the actual situation is.

Even though Li Guanyi's skills have undergone tremendous changes compared to the beginning.

Plus the blessing of physical strength.

At this moment, he was still barely tied with General Xue.

The difference in skills between the two people is huge.

The relaxed smile on General Xue's face disappeared at some point.

The light in his eyes was as intimidating as a knife blade.

Li Guanyi felt a terrifying sense of oppression.

Is this the best in the world when he entered the country? Even without the physique of a fierce general with golden muscles and jade bones, he can still have such strength purely by relying on the skills of his moves. Li Guanyi exhaled, and the breath of the Blue Luan Bird Dharma Image circulated, soothing the fatigue and shock of his body.

it's time.

Li Guanyi's body movement changed.

The Huangji Jingshi Book is running.

The internal energy naturally flowed to the White Tiger Dharma Image.

The internal energy on the spear tip flowed more and more violently, turning into the posture of a roaring tiger. When his body skills were stimulated to the extreme, Li Guanyi had a feeling that if he could go one step further, this flip would be enough to make the tiger pounce out from the spear tip.

But this time, it was enough.

The internal energy disperses, and the white tiger rolls in!
The energy turned into a roaring wave, surging with spiral energy.

General Xue held his halberd in both hands and blocked the attack.

Take half a step back.

"Jade Arm Divine Bow Technique", the divine power is urged again.

The superimposed force exploded, and Li Guan took a step forward to close the distance.

The halberd was like a spear, without any spiral energy, it was just pushed out flatly.

The "Emperor's Book of Scriptures" switches, and the white tiger transforms into a red dragon.

The tiger's roar had not yet disappeared when it turned into a dragon's roar. The cold and rolling energy suddenly ignited, like a wave turning into fire. With one move, the red dragon destroyed the mountain!

A smile appeared on General Xue's face.

"If you are capable, show your inability; if you are strong, show your weakness."

"You said this when we first had a casual chat."

Li Guanyi's pupils contracted, and General Xue said calmly: "As a general, you cannot be reckless. You made a mistake." At the same time, he just leaned slightly to one side, transferred the halberd in his right hand to his left hand, raised it slightly, and stabbed the tip of the halberd towards Li Guanyi's armpit.

This is a place that is difficult to reach with the mountain-destroying energy.

If he didn't exert any strength, Li Guanyi would bump into him and hurt himself.

General Xue calmly finished off the enemy and smiled:
"You also said that we must rescue the enemy when we attack them."

The terrifying thing about the world's number one general is that he does not stagnate but continues to grow.

Li Guan took half a step forward, gritted his teeth, and suddenly retracted the energy he had exerted.

The internal energy goes away and returns!
This operation is enough to cause any incoming warrior to suffer internal injuries and go crazy.

The golden muscles and jade bones held on, and the power of the Blue Luan Bird compensated for the injuries in his meridians, forcing Li Guanyi to regain his strength. However, the Four Symbols rotated, and at this moment, they had naturally switched from the Red Dragon. Li Guanyi grasped the middle section of the halberd with both hands, turned around suddenly, and smashed it down with the Eight Swords of Breaking the Army.

Connect to the third step.

The Jade Arm Divine Bow Technique has reached its limit, and its ultimate is three consecutive bursts.

【Kill the Heavenly Wolf! 】

The clear cry of the blue phoenix was reflected in the eyes of General Xue.

General Xue's expression also changed.

The power of the Eight Swords of Breaking the Army is not comparable to the rolling waves and destroying the mountains.

The Blue Luan Bird has no matching skills, has never formed a physical form, and has no powerful energy.

But the power of the Blue Luan Bird alone was enough. The Red Dragon's mountain-destroying energy had not yet dissipated, and the Blue Luan Bird flew into it. In an instant, there was a sudden change, beyond Li Guanyi's judgment. The energy that was about to be extinguished suddenly became violent, and a blazing flame that was several times more intense than before rose up, and the Blue Luan Bird flapped its wings and flew out.

There was fire wrapped around the wings, a red dragon was circling beside him, and a dragon and a phoenix were circling together.

The dragon roars and the phoenix sings, and fire burns the sky.

General Xue sighed, "This is the third Dharmakāya. A method like combining the Dharmakāya and the other Dharmakāya can actually be accomplished by one person... This world is getting more and more weird." The dragon and the phoenix pounced upon him. General Xue held the halberd in his hand, sighed, and shook the halberd violently.

【Rolling Waves】!
The flames on the dragon scales and phoenix tail disappeared.

It was the same state of entry, the powerful energy had annihilated the dragon and the phoenix, leaving only a vast expanse of green waves.

The golden flames died out, and General Xue placed the halberd in his hand on the ground. The young man in front of him barely managed to stand firm, raised the halberd in his hand, pointed the tip at General Xue in front of him, gasped, his eyes bright, stood up straight, and said:

"…You, lost."

........................

In the palace of the State of Chen.

On the second day, Xue Shuangtao received a letter from Li Guanyi. She breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Li Guanyi, thanking him and saying that he would come to see her later. When she saw the poem again, she smiled and ran quickly towards her aunt's residence.

Li Guanyi's reputation in the court has not been very good recently. She was annoyed when she heard it, but she was also worried about him.

The eldest lady was thinking whether she could try to win some favor for the young man in front of her aunt.

Then let his aunt protect him.

She herself did not have such power, but she believed that with the boy's talent, her aunt would definitely like his poems when she saw them.

When Xue Shuangtao walked quickly into the palace, she heard bursts of laughter. Her steps slowed down and she realized it was the emperor's laughter. The eunuch smiled and said, "It turns out that Miss Xue is here. The emperor and the imperial concubine are inside. Please invite Miss in."

Xue Shuangtao originally wanted to leave, but after thinking about the young man, he bit his lip and went in.

The emperor liked the second daughter of the Xue family, Xue Shuangtao's aunt, very much. Even during the preparation stage of the grand sacrifice, he would secretly come out to meet her. At this moment, he smiled and called her over. Xue Shuangtao encouraged himself in his heart and said, "I came here to dedicate a poem to my aunt."

The emperor laughed and said, "Oh? Hahaha, Shuang Tao has such a skill. Uncle wants to hear it too."

Xue Shuangtao said: "It wasn't me who did it, it was my family..."

"Guest official, Li Guanyi did it."

When the emperor heard the name that had been nagging in his ears recently, he still had a smile on his face. He patted Concubine Xue's hand and said casually, "I've heard of this person. He's a young hero, but he's too violent. He can actually write poems. Why not listen to him?"

The phrase "very violent" is an understatement, but it is already extremely scary.

Xue Shuangtao took a deep breath, mustered up his courage, and recited softly.

Just the first two sentences made the indifference on the emperor's face disappear.

"The clouds are like clothes, the flowers are like faces."

"The spring breeze blows the flowers on the threshold."
