Great Swordsman

Every new year, the Dagan court will rest for three days to show the emperor's favor!
But today, in front of the main hall of the Tianyuan Hall of the Imperial Palace, there are full of princes and nobles in purple and scarlet robes!

The nine giants of Yingyuan Shenfu in Jiutian, the left and right prime ministers, ministers, ministers, Langzhong, Yuanwailang, Siqing, Shaoqing, Sizheng, etc. of the nine temples, as well as many nobles and generals such as dukes, marquises, etc. More than a hundred people!
In addition, on the steps of His Highness, there are many missions from various countries who came to watch the battle, the third prince of Meng Yuan, Tu Lie, the princesses Bai Sining and Bai Shu of Nanzhao, Toyota Mikako from the ghost country, and others are impressively listed. !
There are also thousands of Imperial Forest Army wearing black armor, lined up left and right!
"The emperor is here, the empress is here!"

The sun rises.

Accompanied by the shrill cry of Zhang Xigong, the Chief Supervisor of Ceremonies, the huge dragon chariot slowly approached from the direction of Zichen Hall.

Long Jia was bathed in the sun, like a giant dragon running on the ground, it didn't take long before he arrived in front of the main hall of Tianyuan.

"I have seen Your Majesty, I have seen Your Majesty!" All the princes and nobles immediately bowed and saluted.

"I have seen His Majesty the Emperor Daqian, and the Empress!" Missions from various countries also saluted one after another.

"Exemption!" The figure of the little emperor Ji Xuan walked out of Longjia.

He was wearing a golden dragon robe, which shone brightly under the sunlight, making it impossible for people to look directly at him.

Empress Qin Mengyao followed closely behind. Today she is wearing a golden red phoenix dress, a double phoenix and dragon crown, and a scarf on her shoulders.

Many foreign envoys here have never seen a queen before. At this time, they secretly raised their eyes and saw Qin Mengyao's crescent eyebrows, phoenix eyes and star pupils. His facial features are as beautiful as a dream. I can't feel blasphemous when I see it. How can it be said that a sentence of peerless beauty can be exhausted?
If it wasn’t for Qunyu Mountain, they would meet Yaotai under the moon. Such stunning beauty should only be found in the sky... The envoys from foreign countries couldn’t help feeling emotionally, and secretly envied the Emperor Daqian. Such a goddess from the sky!
At this time, Ji Xuan and Qin Mengyao soared into the sky, turned into two golden rainbows, and landed in front of the main hall of Tianyuan.

All the princes and ministers hurriedly bowed back to the two sides, revealing the golden dragon chair and phoenix chair behind them.

Ji Xuan flicked the dragon robe, turned around and sat down majestically.

Qin Mengyao turned around gracefully, like a Lingbo fairy, sitting on the phoenix chair without fireworks.

Zhang Xi, chief inspector of ceremonies, Leng Mei and You Lan from the Hanlin Academy also quickly came behind the dragon and phoenix chair and waited on them.

"How are you preparing?" Ji Xuan looked to the left.

"Return to Your Majesty, the sword demon from the Xiongnu Mission has arrived in front of the hall." Zuo Xiang Yao Yan said softly: "As for Li Mu, Minister of Rites, Master Kong has already invited him to the White Horse Temple, and I believe he will arrive soon."

"The Xiongnu regards the demon as the most respected, let the sword demon come forward, I want to see if he has three heads and six arms!" Qin Mengyao suddenly said softly.

"Yes, empress." Zuo Xiang turned his head slightly, looking at a certain position on the steps.

There were more than ten people standing there, and the leader was the envoy of the Mongolian Yuan Mission, the third prince, Tu Lie!

Tu Lie grinned at the left minister, turned his body slightly, revealing a slightly 'petite' 30-year-old man behind him.

This person is not short, at least 1.7 meters tall, but standing next to the two-meter-tall Tu Lie, he looks a little short.

The Sword Demon walked up the steps slowly. He was wearing a gray Hu suit and cowhide boots. His skin was rough, and his thick black long hair was tied casually behind his head.

The sword demon's face is very ordinary, and he will never be recognized in the crowd. The only recognizable thing is that there is a centipede-like scar on his left cheek, which runs from the tip of his eyebrow to his left eye. from!
"I have met His Majesty the Emperor Daqian, the Empress." The sword demon looked directly at Ji Xuan and Qin Mengyao, and bent slightly.

"Bold! How dare you look directly at Tianyan, are you looking for death!" Zhang Xi, the head of the Ritual Supervisor, was furious, screaming to give the sword demon a good look.

Leng Mei also immediately pulled out half of Baishuang, her killing intent was awe-inspiring!
Qin Mengyao looked at it indifferently, like a goddess sitting high on the clouds, she looked at Ji Xuan at the side, and said, "The barbarian has no shape, how does your Majesty think he should be punished?"

"Those who don't know don't blame." Ji Xuan waved his hand and stopped Zhang Xi and Leng Mei. He looked the sword demon up and down, and said with great interest: "You are the sword demon? It doesn't look like anything special."

"It's enough to kill a Dagan Poetry Sword Immortal." Dao Mo replied, with a bit of disdain in his flat tone, but looking deep into Qin Mengyao's eyes, there was surprise!
Such an alluring beauty was the only thing he had ever seen in his life!
It even affected his mind!

The sword demon calmly recited the sword scriptures silently, calming his emotions and desires.

"Insanity!"

"Barbarian slaves don't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth!"

"The light of the fireflies is also accompanied by big words!"

There were also many ministers in the field who were angered by his arrogant attitude and retorted.

The Sword Demon stood there neither humble nor overbearing, allowing them to ridicule, but a ferocious smile was slowly withdrawn from the corner of his lips!

In the past, as a slave, facing so many insults from nobles, he might have already trembled and fell to the ground, but after his spiritual energy recovered, he rose rapidly in the Huns like a comet. His cultivation base, his self-confidence, His dignity, his arrogance, are also like the sun flying across the sky, overwhelming the world!
Among the high-ranking ministers in front of him, which one is his opponent?
The sword demon didn't pay attention to these people at all!

"If you are not convinced, you can also fight with me. If you can survive my knife, you will win." The sword demon suppressed his emotions and desires, and glanced at the ministers indifferently, showing his arrogance!
"presumptuous!"

"No reason!"

"The Xiongnu drink blood like hair and don't know how to educate them. How is it different from wild beasts?!"

All the ministers were frightened and angry, but no one dared to fight when they thought of the opponent's cultivation base of the eleventh realm of Earth Sha!

"Sure enough, rebellious." Ji Xuan's face darkened slightly, and he was also irritated by the other party's arrogance, but he didn't know whether it was joy or anger in his heart.

He hoped that Li Mu could cut off the head of the Hun sword demon with a single sword, so that he, the Huns, and Meng Yuan would know that the power of heaven is inviolable, but at the same time, he thought of the portrait and poems of Li Mu hanging in the queen's sister's room, Some hoped that Li Mu would die in this person's hands.

"His Majesty the Emperor Dagan." At this time, the envoy of the Huns stepped forward.

His name is Suo Tanyang, and he is one of the two most trusted ministers of the Xiongnu Chanyu. His status in the Xiongnu is equivalent to the left and right prime ministers of Daqian, with a high position and authority!

He clenched his right hand into his heart, bent slightly, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Sword Demon was originally named Dao Nu, and he was born as a slave. He has never read any books since he was a child. Please, Your Majesty and all the ministers, don't talk to him." care about."

"Major envoy, don't be an example." Ji Xuan said coldly.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Dagan, for your magnanimity. Your heart is as wide and boundless as a grassland, which is admirable!" The goat bent slightly, and then said to the sword demon: "Not coming back yet!"

The sword demon turned indifferently and walked down the steps.

It's a pity...Qin Mengyao sighed slightly in her heart. Originally, she wanted to use the sword demon's arrogance to anger all the princes and make today's decisive battle variable, but she didn't expect everyone to be patient.

"Your Majesty." At this time Chu Wang Ji Changqiu stepped out of the court and said with a smile, "I have something to do, I beg Your Majesty's permission."

"Uncle Chu, it's okay to say." Ji Xuan smiled.

"Your Majesty, Li Mu once said in the Tianyuan Hall that he would fight the sword demon under the eyes of all the people, but there are only us and his subjects in Tianyuan Square. Therefore, I hope that Your Majesty can use the method of water mirror to project this battle onto the Tianyuan Square." Everywhere in the imperial capital, let all the people in the imperial capital see the grand occasion of Shi Jianxian slaying the Xiongnu sword demon!"

Mu Wentu, Shangshu of the Ministry of Punishments, also walked out immediately, and said respectfully: "My minister seconded the proposal!"

"Subject!" Shu Wang Ji Hui walked out, his eyes lingering on Qin Mengyao's beautiful face.

"Second minister!" Zhou Sheren, Minister of Dali Temple, walked out.

"The ministers also seconded the proposal!" Yan Wang Jihan and Grand Master Pang Weiran also walked out one after another.

And as these giants stood up, more ministers also seconded.

"Your Majesty, let everyone in the imperial capital see the Huns in distress, so that I can strengthen my power!" Zhang Ziyao, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, also said.

Li Mu, oh, Li Mu, Zi Fei, I'm afraid you've already offended half of it... You Lan Gong stood behind the phoenix chair, looking at the scene in front of her, sighing silently in her heart.

Leng Mei tightly shook hands with Bai Shuang, but she was helpless.

"Think twice, Your Majesty." Qin Mengyao had expected it a long time ago, and immediately sent a voice transmission to Ji Xuan, saying: "This battle is about the face of the people, just in case, it must not spread to the whole imperial capital."

When Ji Xuan heard it, his heart suddenly tasted good.

Why did the queen sister speak for Li Mu again?

Ji Xuan immediately returned via voice transmission: "Sister Empress, this matter has already been spread all over the imperial capital. Even if it is not projected, it will still attract the attention of all. Why lie to the ears and steal the bell? Besides, if Li Mu loses, let him commit suicide to thank the world!"

Immediately afterwards, he nodded to Ji Changqiu: "Uncle Chu, my favor must be yours!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" Ji Changqiu said loudly.

Seeing this, Qin Mengyao could only shake his head and sigh.

At this moment, the Wangxian Gate in front of the square of Tianyuan Hall suddenly shook, and then slowly opened to both sides, and a group of people headed by the Minister of Rites, Kong Yi, slowly entered!
"coming!"

Everyone's spirits were shocked.

Mu Wentu was even more excited!
Li Mu!

The old man finally waited until this day!
You killed the old couple and cut off my bloodline. Today's grand occasion is the execution ground that the old man prepared for you!

Are you satisfied?
Mu Wentu thought of his wife and children, and on his upright face, he couldn't help but feel the joy of his revenge.

Immediately, Mu Wentu turned his head suddenly, only to see a person staring at him with a smile that was not a smile, it was...

"Zhang Ziyao!" Mu Wentu narrowed his eyes slightly.

After the death of his wife and children, Zhang Ziyao came to him specifically to give him advice on how to kill Li Mu, but he refused in the end with righteous words!

Now, with the cunning level of this old fox, he must have expected that today's situation was set by the old man, maybe he is still laughing at the old man's hypocrisy in his heart at this time. Let's not talk about anyone!

Mu Wentu turned his head blankly.

Next to him, Shu Wang Jihui smiled!

That day at Taoxing Lake in Xihua County, Li Mu beheaded hundreds of monks from the Shenfu with one sword, and severely wounded him with another sword, making him the laughing stock of the royal family. The Lord compressed so much that he couldn't avenge Li Mu wantonly after that!
Now, Li Mu's thorn in his flesh is finally about to be pulled out!
happy! !
Ji Hui thought that once Li Mu died, he could get nearly 70 taels of gold from the "tea stall" in the Western Regions, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter!

"Today's battle will definitely be recorded in the annals of history!" Ji Changqiu beside him was also full of smiles.

It's just that it's hard to say whether it will be famous in history or will be infamous for thousands of years!
"Haha...ha, cough!" Ji Changqiu hurriedly pinched his thighs with his hands, so as not to laugh out loud and spoil the atmosphere of the scene!

"Sir, you will definitely win!" Princess Bai Sining of Nanzhao looked nervously at the tall and handsome figure in the crowd.

"Poetry and Sword Fairy, heh!" Princess Mikako Toyoda of Ghost Kingdom slowly shifted her gloomy gaze from Li Mu to Bai Sining, and she was thinking of the magic weapon on Bai Sining's intestines again.

Soon, Kong Yi and his party walked across the square and came to the steps in front of the main hall of Tianyuan.

"I have seen Your Majesty and Your Majesty." Kong Yi saluted respectfully and said, "Poetry and Sword Immortal Li Mu has been brought here."

"I've seen Your Majesty, Madam." Li Mu came behind Kong Yi and saluted.

"Thank you, Kong Aiqing." Ji Xuan said to Kong Yi, and then looked at Li Mu: "Li Mu, I heard that you have been cultivating in the White Horse Temple for the past few days. Have you improved your cultivation?"

"Return to Your Majesty, I was lucky enough to break through a realm." Li Mu said.

Breakthrough?
That's only the sixth level of earth evil, against the sword demon of the upper eleventh level, he will still die!

Mu Wentu, Ji Hui, Ji Changqiu and others smiled at each other with a calm expression.

"In this way, the odds of Shi Jianxian's victory have increased greatly?" Ji Hui couldn't help but add insult to injury.

"Don't dare, I can only guarantee that I will go all out!" Li Mu gave him a sideways glance, and he had already betrayed the death penalty in his heart.

When he places an order, let him know how many ways to write dead characters!

"Li Mu, the Palace of the God of War will use the method of a water mirror to project images on various parts of the imperial capital, and there will be countless people watching the battle! Therefore, I ordered you to only win and not lose, understand?" Ji Xuan said in a calm voice.

"I obey the order!" Li Mu nodded.

At the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he looked around at the missions of various countries on the steps, and the clusters of purple official robes, but unfortunately, he did not find Master Huineng.

This old bald donkey won't let me go... Li Mu complained in his heart, and then he quickly calmed down, because he sensed a sharp gaze coming from somewhere on the steps.

Li Mu looked sideways, and found that the man was standing next to the third prince Meng Yuan, dressed in a gray beard, with a slightly dark face, and a ferocious centipede scar on his left cheek, which made him look a bit horrifying!
Sword Demon?
Li Mu felt the majestic sword intent coming from the opponent, and suddenly seemed to see a peerless blade piercing the sky, cutting straight at him!

Drawn by the sword demon's sword intent, the sword intent in Li Mu's body rose uncontrollably, like a raging wave, pressing down on the sword demon!
The sword intent and the sword intent collided invisible in the air, and a wind was blowing between the two of them on the flat ground. The wind was as cold as a soldier, and the cheeks of all the princes, ministers, and diplomatic missions from various countries were sore!
Between Li Mu and the sword demon, there was no one to stand, and they retreated one after another!

The third prince of Meng Yuan, Tu Lie, also took two steps back with a gloomy expression.

"It seems that Sword Demon and Shi Jianxian can't wait any longer." Yan Wang Jihan clapped his hands and laughed.

Grand Master Pang, who was wearing a pair of trousers with him, immediately said: "Since that's the case, Your Majesty, the old minister will use the method of water mirror to announce to the countless people outside that this decisive battle has officially begun."

"Sure!" Ji Xuan said.
