"boom!"
As the waves of swords surged forth, the wooden armor crafted from the corpses of the Iron Cavalryman stood at the forefront, emitting a faint red glow!
The fire-armored dwarf on his shoulder radiated the same light.
Iron Rider and Thirsty Boy possess powerful physiques honed by drinking human blood, and their physiques can complement each other.
When wooden armor and fire armor are used together, their power can almost double.
The sharp, powerful sword waves struck the red-armored general, sparking intense sparks!
"General Fu is in red armor!"
Zhao Yutai said angrily, and then he was surrounded by four red-armored generals!
Although they hadn't yet gathered all five elements, with their mutual support, they were able to fight Zhao Yutai to a standstill!
Zhao Yutai was tall and had already reached the Martial Arts Finger Profound Realm, making him perfect for crafting golden armor after his death.
She knew very well that only by killing Li Chang'an could Qingcheng Mountain have a glimmer of hope!
"Li Chang'an, prepare to die!"
Suddenly, she flashed out of the red armor encirclement, her long sword dancing with countless dazzling sword flowers.
Zhao Yutai's pent-up anger was all channeled into this one sword strike!
This sword strike is the ultimate technique she has mastered over the years!
A cold smile appeared on Li Chang'an's lips, and the ground in front of him suddenly cracked open!
Earth Armor's Earth Escape Technique, which shrinks the earth to an inch, has already firmly blocked Li Chang'an's path.
"Danglanglang!"
Pieces of red armor fell to the ground, and the corpses inside the earthen armor were completely pulverized from a distance!
Tu Jia blocked Zhao Yutai's attack, and Li Chang'an then unleashed two more palm strikes.
Zhao Yutai, still in the air, was unaware of the presence of true energy!
Just as Zhao Yutai was filled with doubt, a burst of true energy suddenly erupted from a few feet in front of him!
A golden dragon of true energy seemed to burst forth from the sky, its powerful palm force and true energy instantly unleashing a powerful shockwave!
These two moves catch the opponent off guard, but their staying power is endless!
It is the second of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, "Sudden Arrival" and "Crossing the Great River"!
At such close range, Zhao Yutai had no chance to dodge.
The golden dragon of true energy roared past, and the waves of true energy surged like rivers!
The powerful true energy of ten dragons and ten elephants is unleashed through extremely powerful and fierce moves!
The palm strike landed on Zhao Yutai's back, instantly shattering her internal organs!
Zhao Yutai coughed up blood and died as soon as he hit the ground.
The Taoist priests and nuns of Qingyang Palace have completely lost the will to resist.
Zhao Yutai, who was at the Zhixuan Realm, was killed by Li Chang'an!
That's the unattainable Finger Profound Realm!
Li Chang'an planned to forge a golden armor from Zhao Yutai's corpse.
Although Wu Lingsu is not dead yet, Li Chang'an has no intention of letting him live.
Wu Lingsu's Daoist cultivation level is at the Profound Realm, so refining the earth armor is no problem for her.
Gu Dazu, hidden among the Mo Dao soldiers, slowly withdrew the true energy he had gathered in his hands.
Originally, he was going to take action against Zhao Yutai.
But now it seems that Li Chang'an doesn't really need his protection.
With Zhao Yutai dead, all the Taoist priests and nuns withdrew their swords and surrendered.
"Your Highness, spare us! We surrender!"
"Your Highness! We truly knew nothing of Wu Lingsu's rebellion!"
"Your Highness, we are willing to serve you wholeheartedly!"
Li Chang'an said coldly, "Kill all the men, but leave all the women alive!"
The soldiers immediately carried out the order, and all the Taoist priests were killed in an instant.
Li Chang'an kept these pretty Taoist nuns because they still had a great use to them.
The nuns of Qingyang Palace were all kidnapped after their families were killed.
Li Chang'an planned to set up the Military Intelligence Bureau, the Secret Service Bureau, and the Military Defense Bureau within the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
The Military Intelligence Division gathers military intelligence, the Secret Intelligence Division investigates court secrets, and the Martial Arts Division collects information from the martial arts world.
Throughout history, beautiful women have always been the most suitable spies.
These Taoist nuns were somewhat attractive, knew some martial arts, and were skilled in bedroom arts.
Whether hidden in brothels or given to high-ranking officials, it is perfectly suitable.
After the Qingyang Palace was breached, Li Chang'an ordered his men to search and confiscate its contents.
Chests of gold and silver, and all sorts of rare treasures, were displayed in the main hall of Qingyang Palace.
Wu Lingsu knelt down with a thud and began to plead desperately.
"Brother Chang'an, you must spare my life!"
"I know absolutely nothing about the ugly thing!"
The shrewd and charming Wu Lingsu is now as docile as a cat.
Then, Cao Zhengchun, accompanied by his Imperial Guards, brought up a large box.
"Your Highness, this was found in a hidden compartment in Wu Lingsu's room."
The contents inside were dazzling and astonishing; even Li Chang'an was speechless. This was truly a wealthy place.
"Wu Lingsu, besides the imperial umbrella, imperial brush, and imperial tent bestowed by the late emperor, what else is there?"
Wu Lingsu chuckled and looked at the trinkets.
"The prefect's favorite concubine's small shoes, the governor's daughter-in-law's jade hairpin..."
"The jade bracelet from the mistress of Vice Minister Li of the Ministry of Justice, and the ring from Madam Zhang, the wealthy man from the capital..."
Cao Zhengchun chuckled and picked up a piece of yellow cloth as if plucking a flower.
"King Qingcheng, what is this?"
Wu Lingsu stammered, "...Consort Zheng's undergarment..."
King Qingcheng was skilled in maintaining his youthful appearance and was an expert in bedroom arts, which led him to seduce many female worshippers.
However, this guy even seduced Zhao Chun's concubine; he's really got some nerve.
Wu Lingsu slowly said, "Before His Majesty ascended the throne, the outcome of the succession struggle was still unclear."
"Consort Zheng repeatedly sought divination and fortune-telling, and before I knew it, I had fallen into a trap! I deeply regret it!"
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, Consort Zheng fell out of favor, so I met her once and passed on a secret technique to her..."
Li Chang'an asked, "You taught Consort Zheng the art of the bedroom, and she has regained favor?"
Wu Lingsu said proudly, "Of course! Consort Zheng is currently enjoying the Emperor's favor!"
"My Taoist manuals are all in the hidden compartment. Brother Chang'an, feel free to take them and practice them."
"With this bellyband, even a favored concubine is easy to manipulate."
From now on, we can keep track of news from the palace at any time…
No wonder Wu Lingsu is so well-connected and has such extensive connections; this guy really has some wild ways to get things done.
Just then, a member of the Imperial Guard came to report, "Your Highness, a hidden cave has been discovered in the back mountain!"
It contained armor, as well as iron ore, cloth, and other materials!
Upon hearing this news, Wu Lingsu was immediately shocked. "Brother Chang'an, that was all done by that ugly freak!"
If the armor is found in Qingcheng Mountain, Wu Lingsu will be implicated!
The Imperial Guards dragged Wu Lingsu, who was lying like a dead dog, along the winding mountain path to the back of the mountain.
On the open-air platform at the entrance of the cave stands a six-foot-tall jade tablet.
Li Chang'an swung his palm, and the jade tablet shattered instantly, revealing a sword box stuck in the base of the tablet.
The sword case is inscribed with the words, "This sword will quell all injustices in the world, and this sword will be worthy of those who have wronged the world!"
This is the sword of Wu Su, the former princess of Northern Liang, named Great Liang Dragon Sparrow.
The Great Liang Dragon Sparrow originated from the Wu Family Sword Tomb and is a renowned sword of its time.
Originally named Dragon Sparrow Sword, it was renamed Great Liang Dragon Sparrow after Wu Su joined Northern Liang.
