Fox Demon: Miss Yaya, this damn possessiveness

After listening to Xuan Du's words, Li Qing shook his head and said:

"Brother, you are wrong. If I let Jie Yin go, will Daozu let me go? Brother, you may not know that Daozu has already found me. If I had not swallowed the luck of the Shang Dynasty and had the luck of the human race in my body, I would have died in Daozu's hands long ago!"

"What? Daozu has looked for you?"

Xuandu was shocked when he heard what Li Qing said.

"Yes, half a month ago, Daozu, Uncle Yuanshi, Jieyin and Haotian came to Chaoge and wanted to wipe me out. If I hadn't swallowed the luck of the Shang Dynasty, I would have been reduced to ashes long ago!"

Li Qing raised his head and looked up at the sky, then continued in a cold voice:

"Since Daozu doesn't want me to live, then I will overthrow this world!"

After hearing what Li Qing said, Xuan Du was speechless for a moment. He didn't know how to persuade his junior brother. After all, Daozu had already set his sights on him.

"Alright, Senior Brother, we'll discuss this later. The most urgent task is to pacify Xiqi first!"

After Li Qing asked Huang Feihu to stabilize Sishui Pass, he led the army straight to Xiqi.

On the top of Sishui Pass, Huang Feihu looked at Li Qing who was leaving with a face full of resentment, and said softly:

"I am the deputy commander, why am I staying here to stabilize Sishui Pass?"

"Mr. Deputy Commander-in-Chief!"

A soldier quickly came up to Huang Feihu and shouted respectfully.

"What's the matter?"

"Mr. Deputy Commander, how should we deal with Han Rong, the former commander of Sishui Pass?"

"Han Rong? Kill him!"

"Yes!!!"

Two days later, the 200,000-strong army led by Li Qing arrived outside the city of Xiqi. The people of Xiqi were in panic, especially after seeing the densely packed army outside the city, they became extremely panicked.

"Alas! Why did you rebel for no reason? Wouldn't it be better to just stay under the Shang Dynasty?"

"Yes, Lord, this is tantamount to roasting us on the fire. The Shang Dynasty is now at its peak, and Xiqi is definitely no match for the Shang Dynasty. If the Shang Dynasty army breaks through Xiqi City, I wonder if we still have a chance to survive?"

"My son is still in the Xiqi army. I don't know if he has a chance of survival. Alas!"

The people in Xiqi City did not want to be enemies with the Shang Dynasty. After all, in their opinion, peace was the best, because once a war broke out, people would die.

Once someone dies, it may be their own son or grandson, so they hate war extremely.

In addition, the king of the Shang Dynasty was not incompetent, so they really couldn't understand why King Xibo wanted to rebel against the Shang Dynasty.

In the Marquis's Mansion of Xiqi, Ji Fa was sitting on the main seat. His face was not very good at this moment. After all, the saint who was in charge of Xiqi suddenly disappeared, and the group of immortals who claimed to help him overthrow the rule of the Shang Dynasty also disappeared without a trace. This made him wonder if he was fooled by that group of people.

"Your Majesty, the Shang Dynasty's army has stationed outside the city!"

At this time, a guard ran in, knelt on the ground respectfully, and spoke to Jifa who was in a state of panic above.

"I know, let's go!"

Ji Fa directly asked the guards to retreat.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now? I am afraid that Xiqi cannot stop the Shang army! Please make a decision as soon as possible!"

A middle-aged man in armor stood up from his seat, looked at Ji Fa who was sitting above him and asked. This man was the general of Xiqi, Nangong Kuo.

"I understand. You all should leave first. I will think about it and then reply to you!"

"Yes!!!"

All of Xiqi's most trusted ministers walked out of the hall.

"Alas! At this point, in my opinion, if we want to preserve Xiqi, we have no choice but to submit to the Shang Dynasty again!"

A civil servant sighed and said.

"Taifu, what you said makes sense. I have heard that the King of Shang is kind. If Xiqi surrenders to him, he will definitely not kill us all. But... I am afraid that the King will not agree!"

Someone answered like this.

"But we can't let the entire Xiqi be buried with us, right? Your Majesty won't do such a thing, right?"

Ji Fa was the only one sitting in the hall, with no trace of struggle in his eyes.

"Oh! I never thought that the foundation of my Ji family that has been built for hundreds of years would be destroyed in my hands. How can I face my ancestors after I die?"

Jifa said with a wry smile.

"Let's wait a little longer. If the saint and the immortals haven't returned in two days, we will have no choice but to open the city and surrender to the Shang army!"

Ji Fa had good intentions. He did not drag the people of the city to hell like many other kings who lost their country. Instead, he chose to save their lives.

Outside Xiqi City, in the central military tent, Yaya was lying in Li Qing's arms, sipping tea.

Zhao Gongming was sitting on his right, looking at Li Qing with an anxious look on his face, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

"Junior brother! We have been outside Xiqi City for two days. Why haven't we launched an attack on Xiqi City yet?"

Zhao Gongming was very puzzled and asked Li Qing who looked contented.

"Brother Zhao, don't worry. The Art of War says that the best strategy is to defeat the enemy without fighting. Just wait. In a few days, if the Marquis Xibo still has some conscience, he will take the initiative to open the city and welcome us in!"

Li Qing said with confidence.

"I hope so!"

After listening to Li Qing's words, Zhao Gongming had no choice but to do as Li Qing said. After all, he was a saint.

As expected, one day later, the gates of Xiqi were opened wide. Ji Fa took the lead and stood at the gate. He bowed and shouted to the central army tent outside the city:

"The guilty minister, Xibo Hou Jifa, has opened the city and surrendered today. Please punish me, Master Imperial Master!"

When Li Qing heard the sound coming from outside, he immediately stood up and walked outside with Yaya in his arms.

"Ji Fa? Where is your father Ji Chang?"

Li Qing stood at the city gate and asked Ji Fa, who was kneeling on the ground with a knife at his neck.

"Your Excellency, my father has passed away!"

"Dead? That's a good thing for him!"

Li Qing signaled the soldiers who were holding Ji Fa to bring the sword that was placed on his neck, and then said to Ji Fa:

"Take me to your Xibohou Mansion!"

"Yes!!!"

Ji Fa took Li Qing and went straight to the residence of Marquis Xibo, while the Shang army also entered the city of Xiqi.

When the people of Xiqi saw the Shang army entering the city, they all looked nervous and picked up their farm tools. If they found that the Shang army was doing evil, they were ready to fight them to the death. However, they found that the Shang soldiers were very well-behaved after entering the city and did not burn, kill or loot.

"Master Imperial Master has trained the Shang Dynasty's troops very well!"

Ji Fa looked back at the soldiers who entered Xiqi City in an orderly manner, and said sincerely.

A week later, Li Qing left Xiqi and brought Ji Fa back to Chaoge. After handing Ji Fa over to Emperor Xin, he began to prepare how to deal with Hongjun.

As for the follow-up of Xiqi, Emperor Xin had asked Li Qing to bring people to take over Xiqi when Li Qing went on the expedition.

As for Ji Fa's fate, Li Qing did not ask much. After all, treason was a serious crime punishable by the execution of nine generations of the clan. Fortunately, Emperor Xin was kind-hearted and did not kill Ji Fa and others. He just threw them into prison and locked them up for three to five years.

Li Qing returned home, recorded the stories he knew, compiled them into several books, and went to the palace to meet Emperor Xin.

"Teacher, why are you here?"

Emperor Xin was practicing when he suddenly felt someone approaching. He immediately opened his eyes and saw that it was Li Qing. He asked with a smile on his face.

"Your Majesty, I came here to ask for a favor!"

Li Qing bowed to Emperor Xin and said.

"Teacher, you are too polite. There is no need to ask for anything between you and me. If you have any problem, just send someone to inform me."

Li Qing had a large basket of bamboo slips brought in and said to Emperor Xin:

"Your Majesty, these bamboo slips contain some bizarre stories that I know of. I want to prevent these stories from being known to the world as soon as possible!"

After listening to Li Qing's words, Emperor Xin thought for a moment and then summoned all the storytellers in Chaoge City to come to the palace to meet him.

Soon, a group of storytellers came into the hall with terrified looks on their faces, and they did not dare to look up at Emperor Xin who was sitting above them.

"We, the common people, greet the king!"

The storytellers shouted with great respect to Emperor Xin who was sitting above.

"No need to be polite. I asked you to come here this time because I have a mission for you. This basket contains many stories. I hope you can spread these stories throughout the Shang Dynasty in the shortest possible time!"

"Yes!!!"

After explaining this matter, Li Qing returned to his home. He sat on the bed. His cultivation had increased a lot after the Shang Dynasty unified the world again, but he still could not compete with Hongjun.

That's why he returned to his old profession and enriched his storytelling career. But now, he is the imperial teacher of the Shang Dynasty, so he naturally doesn't need to tell stories himself.

"It seems that the day of the final battle between Hongjun and I is not far away!"
