It has already been razed to the ground.
Uesugi Tora brought a hundred personal guards.
They all perished; not one survived.
The terrifying aura left even the well-informed Sean stunned and unable to recover for a long time.
He knew that he could only be a dog, whether in Northern Qi or Southern Qing.
But this time,
He seemed to have chosen a master as powerful as a god for himself.
However, looking at the devastated scene before him, Li Chengqian...
But I wasn't very satisfied.
This means that his "One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate" technique is still far from perfect.
The power was impossible to control, and once the sword was drawn, there was no return; it was impossible to truly master the power of opening the gates of heaven with a single sword.
Otherwise, if the power were concentrated and unified,
At this moment, bitter lotus
How could they possibly have the strength to escape with their people?
They were already reduced to nothing by that sword strike.
This is normal, of course.
Li Chungang, who created the "One Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate" technique.
Back then, even they couldn't control this sword technique freely.
Before Wang Xianzhi reached the summit...
Because they valued talent, they didn't unleash the full power of their "Heavenly Gate Opening Sword" technique, which they couldn't fully control, and thus suffered a regrettable defeat.
Until he confined himself to the Listening to the Tide Pavilion for decades,
After a period of reflection, he gradually mastered the Heaven-Opening Sword Technique, able to control it at will.
Li Chengqian had only recently grasped the meaning and was unable to control his impulses.
There's nothing strange about that.
Watching the bitter lotus disappear rapidly into the distance,
Li Chengqian smiled slightly.
This was the second Grandmaster he faced, and he was once again defeated by him!
He came up to Sean.
After quickly setting the fractures in Sean's two broken arms, he picked up a twig from the ground and used it to immobilize them.
Then he took Sean and left the place.
Li Chengqian brought Xiao En back to the group.
The once massive group has dwindled to a mere twenty guards, along with Jing Ni, several envoys from Nanqing, and the hostage, Lang Tao.
Wolf Peach saw Sean appear,
There was no trace of unexpected emotion in his eyes.
Instead, a faint hint of mockery and sarcasm appeared on his face.
He had said long ago that running away was pointless and there was no way to escape.
Sean glanced at Wolf Peach with a blank expression, giving off a subtle sense of looking down on him.
When he returned from his escape, his identity was no longer the same.
What could you, Wolf Peach, possibly understand?
Even your most respected teacher, that hypocrite Ku He, has suffered a great loss at this moment.
What right do you, Wolf Peach, have to look down on me?
The two disliked each other so much that they simply ignored each other.
Li Chengqian ignored them.
After he returned to the team, the team picked up speed.
Traveling light, their pace was already much faster than the previous group.
With intentional acceleration
In less than half a day
The caravan then arrived at Jianmen Pass.
After the Qing Kingdom's envoy stepped forward and made his announcement, Jianmen Pass was quickly opened.
An elderly woman dressed in a rather wealthy manner emerged from among them.
She swaggered forward, looking down at Li Chengqian with a somewhat condescending air, and said...
"So you are the crown prince of the Southern Barbarians? You do look quite respectable. Where is Lang Tao? You can hand him over to this old woman."
Although he was the Empress Dowager's favorite follower,
But she didn't understand the current state of the world.
They would never know that Li Chengqian was a grandmaster.
All she knew was that the Northern Qi was the legitimate dynasty, while the Southern Qing was nothing more than a bunch of valiant barbarians relying on their martial prowess.
As a highly respected elder in the Northern Qi imperial palace, she...
Apart from the Empress Dowager of Northern Qi
She treated even the young emperor of Northern Qi almost as an equal.
Currently, version 1.0 is still within the territory of the Northern Qi Dynasty.
What is there to be afraid of when facing a young crown prince of the Southern Barbarian Kingdom?
Therefore, in her words,
It naturally took on the tone of voice he usually used when giving orders.
Li Chengqian's eyes showed a hint of surprise.
Along the way
Even Ku He wouldn't dare to treat him like that.
An old woman who's practically half-buried in the ground is incredibly arrogant.
It really is like stabbing someone in the butt with a knife—it's eye-opening!
However, arguing with a woman who is almost sixty years old is really beneath one's dignity.
And he was very curious.
Did the Northern Qi really not expect this scene when they sent this old nanny?
Or was it intentional on the part of Northern Qi?
Furthermore, if this old woman came to pick up Wolf Peach, where is Sean?
Not a single member of the Northern Qi's Imperial Guards came.
He ignored the old woman, looked at the towering Jianmen Pass, and said indifferently, "Is this how Northern Qi treats its guests?"
Chapter 111 Wolf Peach Surrenders: Why did you provoke him when you were perfectly fine?
Li Chengqian narrowed his eyes slightly.
He suddenly felt that the Northern Qi side might be deliberately using this old nanny to provoke him and force him to take action.
It should be noted that at this moment, inside Jianmen Pass...
However, it had hundreds of thousands of troops from the Northern Qi.
Using hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege and kill a Grandmaster is not without the possibility of success.
Although he was the crown prince of the Qing Kingdom
But it is likely that once Northern Qi makes a move, Emperor Qing will stand idly by.
Of all the people in this world who want him dead, Emperor Qing is undoubtedly one of the most deserving.
Moreover, it is not impossible that the Northern Qi might take drastic action for the sake of the future.
What's more, just yesterday, in front of Uesugi Tiger and Ku He, he turned Sean against him and even severely injured Ku He.
This means that his threat level in Northern Qi has almost reached its peak.
After the guardian deity Kuhe suffered a crushing defeat
If the Northern Qi wanted to kill him, the only way was to surround and kill him with a large army.
Therefore, if he were to make a move,
The probability of the Northern Qi taking action is not low.
At this moment, no one responded from within Jianmen Pass, yet a faint sense of impending doom permeated the air.
The old woman had no idea that she had become a pawn of certain high-ranking officials in Northern Qi.
Seeing that Li Chengqian was so indifferent to her,
A surge of intense anger welled up within me.
"You barbarian prince, how utterly ignorant of manners! I spoke to you personally, and you completely ignored me?"
"Southern Barbarian Crown Prince," Li Chengqian pondered the title.
A smile appeared on his lips.
“Jingni, wait a minute, this old guy’s face is like tree bark, it might prick your hand.”
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Wolf Peach, who had remained silent.
