Chapter 43: Life and Death Battle 2
Jiang Yunshang's face showed majesty. Although her life and death were in the hands of the other party at the moment, she was a member of the royal family after all, and she could not be weak in momentum.

He asked in a puzzled tone, "Who are you? Why are you wearing the prime minister's attire?"

"This old minister is Li Tianlei, the Prime Minister appointed by Emperor Gaozu in the 20th year of his reign. He later died of illness due to overwork in the 25th year of his reign. He was posthumously honored and given a state funeral, a life of honor."

"After his death, he was even granted the title of the previous City God of Yunfu County."

"Are you a Taoist who has been ordained?" Jiang Yunshang knew that every few decades, a Taoist sect would come to Da Zhou or other major dynasties to select young people with good qualifications to practice Taoism, and naturally she also knew something about the ordination.

Then she looked at him coldly and said in a cold tone, "If that's the case, why don't you repay the king's kindness and instead come to devour the master?"

"Hahaha, Your Highness, I have always been loyal to the people of this world." He continued, "If your Jiang family led the Great Zhou to prosperity, I would naturally be loyal to them. But now the Great Zhou is in ruins, and you so-called princes and princesses only care about power and profit, without caring about the lives of the people. Naturally, I must choose a virtuous and capable person."

Jiang Yunshang said coldly, "This great world's downfall is not my fault alone, and no one person can save it. Even if you kill me, what will happen? Even if you choose someone, what will happen?"

"You're only doing this out of greed for power. Why bother making such high-sounding statements? You're no longer the Prime Minister Li Tianlei who worked for the country and the people."

"Besides, you dare to interfere in the mortal world like this. I'm sure there must be someone supporting you! That person's motives are probably not simple. Do you think you can go against his wishes?"

Li Tianlei shook his head and said, "There is only one person in this world who can be saved, and that is me, Li Tianlei."

Buzz.
Dozens of sounds of breaking through the air came as expected, and the flying knives that were stuck in the boulders suddenly broke away from the boulders and shot towards Li Tianlei with a cold light.

"Bei Xuan." Jiang Yunshang showed joy on her face. He was still alive.

Li Tianlei was surprised that he was not dead. If he was just an ordinary mortal, even a martial arts mortal who was closest to a cultivator, he would have died without a doubt under the attack just now.

All the major acupoints in Ye Beixuan's body were blocked. At the critical moment, the Yi Jin Jing and the Tu Gu Na Xin were running wildly to break through the mysterious gate. His cultivation level was raised to a higher level, and he entered the stage of Qi into Essence. He only needed to take another half step to enter the first realm of Taoist practitioners, the Qi Training Realm.

At the same time, he also dispersed the spiritual power that Li Tianlei had injected into his body, and finally survived the crisis.

Li Tianlei used the same trick again. With a wave of his hand, the dead leaves collided with the flying knife again. Ye Beixuan took advantage of this opportunity to flash and picked up the iron sword on the ground. He turned into a ghostly afterimage and stabbed Li Tianlei with the sword.

Li Tianlei showed disdain as he caught the sword intent with the force of thunder in his palm, and the iron sword could no longer move forward.

Ye Beixuan's true energy was like a torrent, all poured into the iron sword. He moved forward with difficulty, but the tip of the sword could not move forward at all. The sword body also began to bend because of Ye Beixuan's forward movement.

Under his full-strength thrust, Li Tianlei felt a slight pain in his palm. He frowned and shouted angrily, "An ant trying to shake a tree."

Suddenly, a black air burst out, and snap! The iron sword couldn't withstand the power of the two people and broke into several sections. Li Tianlei turned into a shadow and grabbed Ye Beixuan's throat.

"go to hell!"

With a snap, Ye Beixuan's throat was pinched off, and at the same time he was pressed hard to the ground and rubbed.

"Bei Xuan." Jiang Yunshang's face was filled with grief and anger. You didn't have to die. Why? Why did you come out? You could pretend to be dead. Why did you die for me?
Li Tianlei on this side was torturing the corpse crazily. Jiang Yunshang stepped forward to stop him, but was slapped back by him and rolled on the ground several times.

Buzz. A slight sound of breaking through the air flashed through the grass.

Li Tianlei, who was furious and whipping the corpse, paused and looked at the big hole in his chest with an expression of disbelief. How could a mortal weapon hurt him?

I was created through spiritual cultivation! I was unwilling to give up. I finally found the way to immortality, and I was about to succeed, but he stopped me.

At this moment, the "Ye Beixuan" in his hand suddenly turned into a burst of stars, and began to gradually fade away until it turned into a copper pea. Li Tianlei's pupils shrank.

Ye Beixuan's figure flashed, and his palm turned into a claw, pressing directly on his head, and activated his energy-sucking technique, sucking in a stream of black air.

Inside the dark hall on the other side.

A figure frowned slightly and muttered to himself, "Who sucked away the demon seed from my Dao Heart?"

On the other side, there was a snap.

Li Tianlei was sucked into nothingness by him, and he used up his last bit of strength to shake Ye Beixuan away. He suddenly said kindly: "Thank you"

Immediately, the spirit body turned into stars and dissipated in the world.

【The art of observing the air.】

【The art of clones.】

【Flying knife that suppresses evil.】

【Absorbing Qi.】

He used all four trump cards and combined them with his own strategies to barely achieve a victory, but the gap was still too big.

Ye Beixuan just wanted to take a gamble and was very happy that he won. The Evil-Suppressing Flying Knife could indeed kill him and even restrain spirits. This flying knife was truly extraordinary.

"Are you okay?" Jiang Yunshang quickly stepped forward and checked Ye Beixuan's whole body, looking at the wounds all over his body with heartache.

"When it's over, I'll take you back for treatment." She gritted her teeth.

"Keep going!" Ye Beixuan said calmly, looking at the faint light ahead: "Once you get there, you should be safe."

After saying that, the two of them slowly walked towards the light.

outside the city.

A scholar's robe fluttered in the wind, and a group of masked killers were falling down one after another.

A resounding phoenix cry echoed, signaling the end of the battle. A graceful figure approached quickly, holding a bloodied sword. She knelt on the ground with her hands clasped in her hands and said, "I, General Zhao Qingya, pay my respects to the Emperor's uncle."

"The rebels have all been eliminated. Please give the order, my uncle."

"She doesn't want to see these for the time being, clean it up." The man held the book, without raising his head, his eyes fixed on the book.

"Yes, the general will take your orders."

The light grew brighter and brighter, and the air seemed to be filled with the smell of blood, but there was no trace of blood at the scene.

Ye Beixuan frowned slightly as he looked at the man in Confucian robes holding the book and said, "He is very strong."

"Don't be nervous, he is my uncle." Jiang Yunshang said softly.

"Ah."

The man in Confucian robes walked over slowly, and the rhythm of his steps was exactly the same as Ye Beixuan's heartbeat. He was so strong that he must have reached the pinnacle of martial arts. It seemed that he could break through at any time if he wanted to, but he was just suppressing himself.

"Your Highness, I, Zhang Fulu, kowtow to you and wish you eternal health." After saying this, he was about to perform the ceremony of kneeling and bowing.

Jiang Yunshang hurried over, helped him up and said, "Uncle, please stand up quickly. We are all family here, there is no need for such formalities."

Jiang Yunshang's words were actually a double entendre. First, it showed respect for the king's uncle. Second, it meant that Ye Beixuan was her family. The two had no blood relationship. So it was clear what the family meant. This was actually a test of her for the king's uncle.

The uncle's face was calm. He naturally saw that Ye Beixuan was extraordinary. Who could let his niece hold him so closely? Even hugging each other, I'm afraid only the person you love would be allowed to do so.

"Your Highness, may I have a few words with Your Highness alone?" Zhang Fulu said in a flat tone, and it was impossible to tell what he meant.

Jiang Yunshang was stunned. She glanced at Ye Beixuan and said calmly, "I'm going to chat with the uncle for a while. You must be a little tired on the way. Take a rest!"

"Okay." Ye Beixuan stepped aside and waited.
