The Dao dies but I live on, the spiritual energy dries up but I remain evergreen

The emperor's royal wheel was destroyed in public, flames shot up into the sky, and the people on both sides of the river were terrified and fled in panic.

"Immortal! Immortal!"

Many people in the martial arts world were terrified.

To destroy such a tall imperial wheel with just one strike, who else could he be but a god?

Although there are often rumors that immortals have appeared in certain places, most people do not believe them.

The imperial wheel broke into pieces and sank to the bottom of the river. Hundreds of civil and military officials and three thousand concubines all fell into the turbulent river.

The elite soldiers on both sides of the strait did not expect that someone would be so bold. They immediately rushed into the river, walked on the water, and fought desperately with the assassins who suddenly attacked.

Many civil officials shouted at the top of their lungs, "Protect the emperor, protect the emperor!"

Longyue continued to play the song "Qushui Lanting", but this time, in addition to the pleasant music, it also contained endless murderous intent and rampant spiritual energy!

I have been practicing this song for hundreds of years just for this day.

The music is floating, gentle and sad.

All the ministers were shocked at once. The former Fu Tao, now Long Yue, had determination in his eyes and spiritual energy all over his body. He was desperately fighting.

Her cultivation has just entered the stage of refining emptiness.

If it were during that era when spiritual energy was at its peak, it would be difficult to even get close to the officials, let alone control them.

But now, the spiritual energy is exhausted.

Her poem "Qushui Lanting" has the effect of group control. In order to break through this control, a certain amount of spiritual energy is needed.

And spiritual energy represents longevity. Wouldn’t all the civil and military officials, and powerful ministers in the court, have any hesitation?

It is this hesitation that forms a sharp contrast with the assassin's determination.

It also gave the assassin a perfect opportunity.

The man who jumped out from the bottom of the river shouted loudly and rushed straight towards Li Shanhe.

Li Shanhe looked grim and had to use his spiritual energy. His imperial power was overwhelming and the dragon energy soared into the sky!

……

riverbank.

Li Changxiao, who had just walked out of the tavern, reeked of alcohol and had a complicated expression on his face.

He walked on the water and stepped into the river.

The wreckage of the imperial wheel was scattered all over the river. He looked at someone dimly and walked towards one place.

The "three thousand" in the Lingtian Dynasty's harem of three thousand is just an imaginary number.

In fact, there are far more than three thousand, but only a few hundred can get on the imperial wheel.

A concubine fell into the water and started cursing, blaming the servants around her for not taking good care of her and causing her to fall into the water. If she caught a cold, the entire nine clans of these servants would be killed.

The servant dared not to object, and was trembling with fear. He had to quickly find a piece of wood to help the priceless woman climb up.

The woman also had some skills, but they were only for nourishing qi and prolonging life. Her fighting ability was just so-so, but she could fly and hide behind the ground.

But in the current situation, she dared not use even a little bit. Even if her beauty was exposed when she fell into the water, she would just soak in the water like an ordinary person.

Fortunately, the soldiers nearby drove a small boat and helped the lady up.

"Trash, it's all trash!"

The woman continued to curse and kicked the soldier who helped her onto the boat into the water. Then, feeling that it was not enough, she kicked several eunuchs into the water as well.

She raised the rowing oar and smashed it hard on the heads of several people.

He also gave orders not to hide or shout, otherwise all nine generations of his family would be killed!

Soon, the officers and soldiers who rescued her onto the boat also sank to the bottom of the river with blood all over their heads.

The noble lady still held her breath as she turned to look at the group of assassins.

When the unrest subsides, she will definitely ask His Majesty for a few assassins, train them well, and finally make them into leather goods to sell!

"You are still so violent."

Suddenly, a voice came from behind.

The lady looked back and found that a man had appeared at the stern of the boat.

He was dressed in white, sitting at the stern, holding a wine gourd in his left hand, looking at himself with a playful look.

The noble lady frowned and shouted angrily, "Who are you, you dare to ride on the same boat with me? Do you want to die?"

"Empress Zhou, have you forgotten me in just a thousand years?" Li Changxiao said lightly.

His words made the other person's pupils shrink.

Li Changxiao continued, "Since you have forgotten, I will help you recall it."

"In the Lingtian Dynasty, there are three thousand beauties in the harem. Regardless of their status, everyone is qualified to learn the Fengxi Yangqi technique."

"This technique is a Taoist secret. It can stabilize your breath, prolong your life, and nourish your complexion."

"If I remember correctly, you once secretly modified the formula for the operation of this technique, which caused a concubine who was originally a palace maid to be unable to enter the Tao for half her life. Not only that, but it also accelerated her aging and reduced her lifespan, right?"

Li Changxiao's calm voice concealed a hatred that had lingered for a long time.

During the ten years, he watched his biological mother grow old little by little. If she had not missed Li Changxiao, she would have committed suicide long ago.

"Oh." The noble lady laughed, "So you came here for that bitch."

"Who was it I thought? It turned out to be you, little bastard. I didn't expect that after all these years, you're still alive."

"Why, are you still dreaming of returning to my Lingtian Dynasty and becoming a prince?"

The noble lady put her hands on her hips and laughed contemptuously, with mockery in her phoenix eyes.

She continued with contempt, "You really know how to pick the right time. Now that the emperor has been attacked, if you go to rescue him, you may be able to return to the Li family."

Seeing the noble lady's expression, Li Changxiao sighed, unscrewed the wine gourd, and poured the "Drunkenness and Dreaming Death" into his mouth frantically.

"Look, it seems like quite a few soldiers are swimming this way."

Li Changxiao pointed to the river around him, then looked at the lady and said, "Do you think they can save you?"

The lady paused with a confident expression, "What do you mean?"

"If you face the palace and kowtow three times to my mother, I can let you die happily." Li Changxiao said lightly.

"Hmph, little bastard, do you really think that I won't learn a few Taoist techniques to protect myself while I'm in that deep palace?" The noble lady laughed coldly, "I just don't want to waste my spiritual energy on a piece of shit like you."

"Back then, I only used one sentence to kill your mother. Now, to kill you, just one slap..."

Halfway through the sentence.

Her eyes suddenly widened, and she looked down at her abdomen in disbelief.

The scene in my eyes changes.

Li Changxiao suddenly flashed from the stern of the ship and appeared in front of him at some point, stabbing the long sword into his abdomen.

The noble lady surnamed Zhou covered her abdomen in disbelief, feeling the spiritual energy in her body being lost at a very fast rate.

His cultivation level dropped drastically.

Li Changxiao's sword cut off her foundation and her platform.

What's even more tragic is that she didn't even know when the other party drew his sword.

It's not that she is used to being arrogant. Don't be fooled by her contemptuous expression and arrogant tone. In fact, she has always been wary of Li Changxiao.

It's no use.

She had already been dragged into the dream.

"Pfft!"

Li Changxiao drew out the Qingping sword expressionlessly, sat by the boat, and began to wash the surface of the river.

The woman, who had been so arrogant and domineering, now slumped at the bow, her face pale.

She knew she was finished.

In this era, the Daotai has been destroyed and she can live no more than a hundred years.

After a few seconds, Li Changxiao sheathed his sword, stretched out his index finger, and gently tapped the opponent's forehead.

Plant the seed of the nightmare that has been woven for so long.

"I will come to see you again in a hundred years. Experience the sufferings of the world in these hundred years." He left these words and walked away across the river.
