Martial Arts: I am in the Ming Cult and I am building a dynasty

"Such a strong aura of evil spirits. Who are you?"

Xiang Yutian was blocked by the fierce general, but the handsome man with a long sword on his back did not take the opportunity to attack and kill him. This performance made the Ghost Shadow Ancestor slightly restrain his murderous intent, and he turned into a ghost shadow and came.

Facing the rebuke from the Ghost Shadow Ancestor.

The handsome man smiled warmly, bowed slightly, and said, "Xie Xuan of Chen County, I greet His Royal Highness Prince Zhao, and I greet this Taoist friend."

"Nine Shao Ding Yin Sword, Xie Xuan?"

The Ghost Shadow Ancestor was shocked, and even Mu Qingliu and Mo Yiming appeared next to him, on high alert, as if they could explode at any time.

But at this time.

Yang Zhao waved his hand, asking Ghost Shadow Patriarch and the others to step aside. He looked at Xie Xuan and said, "I have heard for a long time that Xie presented Lord Wu Lanzhi Yushu, who was the most meritorious among all the armies. He is a rare and extraordinary man in the world. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary."

"Agui, Mu Qing, Mo Lao, all of you please step back. If my guess is correct, Lord Xianwu's visit here must be out of sincere goodwill. You don't need to be on guard."

Xie Xuan, after faking his death and leaving the world, was posthumously named Xianwu.

Because he made great contributions to Han men in the Sui Dynasty during his lifetime, the Han people in the Sui Dynasty all called him Xie Xianwu.

Such a man is worthy of Yang Zhao's respectful title of Duke Xianwu.

Moreover, the moment Xie Xuan appeared, Yang Zhao had already sensed some kind of test from his martial arts will.

A person with such a perfect and elegant will would not commit an ambush or a sneak attack.

At least, the other side can't do it when they are not on the battlefield.

When Xie Xuan heard Yang Zhao's words, he felt that he was like a close friend. He smiled even warmer and said, "Your Highness, you are too kind. I am just a loser who failed at the last hurdle. I don't deserve such praise from Your Highness."

When talking about the past, Xie Xuan seemed a little sad.

Yang Zhao smiled and said, "In the old dynasty, Sima was incompetent, and Emperor Liezong had good luck and good people, but he didn't know how to cherish them, and he died at the hands of a woman. In addition, Hengxuan was in power in the court, and the aristocratic families were hindering him. How could Duke Xianwu save the world? Why worry about it?"

Liezong was the emperor of the Jin Dynasty to whom Xie Xuan once served. During his reign, the aristocratic family declined.

Huan Xuan was the largest representative of the aristocratic family during the reign of Emperor Liezong, and also the biggest stumbling block on Xie Xuan's road to success.

It can be said that the harder Xie Xuan fought in the front, the harder Huan Xuan held them back.

An emperor who became addicted to wine and sex as soon as he achieved a little success, coupled with a large group of powerful officials from aristocratic families who abused their power and hindered his development, it can be said that Xie Xuan at that time was carrying the Jin Dynasty on his own and fighting against the 800,000-strong army of the Former Qin.

Yang Zhao thought about it and felt it was not worth it for Xie Xuan.

Chapter 605 Xie Xuan recognizes his master, Liu Laozhi's request

Jin Dynasty, Sima family, hundreds of years ago, I have to say, that was really a terrible era.

Emperor Liezong of the Jin Dynasty was a pretty good emperor in the early days of his reign. He took advantage of the decline of the aristocratic families and managed to seize imperial power.

It was with the support of Emperor Liezong that Xie Xuan established the Northern Palace Army and launched a northern expedition to the Central Plains.

At the time when Former Qin was at its most powerful, they defeated its ambitions and even fought to the Yellow River. After a short rest, they were able to make a desperate effort and unify the world again.

It was at such a critical moment that Xie Xuan was constrained by the rear and was dismissed from power and left idle.

As a result, Xie Xuan's ambitions were not fulfilled and he failed to achieve his goal. From then on, he became completely disheartened, faked his death, and sat at home for hundreds of years.

even.

Yang Zhao could clearly see that in Xie Xuan's case, his own path was almost perfect, but he could not reach perfection because of his flawed state of mind and was completely stuck.

Xie Xuan's Tao is an elegant way similar to that of a perfectionist, consisting of poetry, books, music, swordplay and wine.

Such people will fail at the critical moment.

It can be said that this leaves a huge flaw in one's state of mind, and even one's own path can never be completely perfect.

When he saw all this clearly, Yang Zhao almost understood Xie Xuan's intention.

With the help of Yang Zhao and the upcoming chaos of the Sui Dynasty, Xie Xuan could perfect his own state of mind and bring his own path to perfection. Only in this way could he have the possibility of achieving enlightenment.

That’s right, Xie Xuan’s cultivation has reached its limit at the ceiling of Martial Saint.

Only half a step away, Xie Xuan would become an ultimate powerful being at the pinnacle of humanity.

The king chooses his ministers, and the ministers choose their king.

In a sense, Xie Xuan had already begun observing Yang Zhao when the many powerful forces formed a team to come to Chang'an and Xie Xuan agreed to escort the Xiao clan's team into the capital.

It is a test when the top strong men from the team of heroes launch an attack.

The double illusion created by Xie Xuan is a test.

And now, the conversation between Yang Zhao and Xie Xuan is also a test.

Although there was a lot of talk between the two sides, Yang Zhao and Xie Xuan had already developed a very tacit and familiar feeling between them.

A natural fit.

After Yang Zhao finished speaking, Xie Xuan was silent for a long time.

Until the fight between Xiang Yutian and Liu Laozhi became more and more intense, and even became uncontrollable and affected the surrounding areas.

Xie Xuan just bowed and said, "Xie's young master, I pay my respects to His Majesty Prince Zhao!"

Seeing Xie Xuan recognize his master.

Yang Zhao also laughed loudly and said, "I am grateful for the help of Duke Xianwu. Now that half of the Great Sui Dynasty has been conquered, we should celebrate. Duke Xianwu can stay in Chang'an for a while. In seven days, I will hold a banquet in Wenhua Hall to congratulate Duke Xianwu."

Xie Xuan immediately laughed and said, "It's also to congratulate His Highness."

As the two men finished speaking, laughter rang out, and Xiang Yutian and Liu Laozhi, who had been fighting in the void, also stopped.

The divine power, thunder, and iron-blooded murderous aura that filled the sky dissipated in an instant.

But Xiang Yutian returned to Yang Zhao's side with his sleeves fluttering, looking like an accomplished Taoist master, except that his hands were trembling inside his sleeves.

Mu Qingliu looked at Xiang Yutian with disdain and said teasingly, "Xiao Xiang, rub it if it hurts, don't bear it. We are all family here, no one will laugh at you, except me."

Xiang Yutian looked at Mu Qingliu speechlessly and said forcefully, "That guy is even worse than me."

After saying this, Xiang Yutian stopped talking.

At this time, amidst the divine thunder that was dissipating in the sky, Liu Laozhi, whose body was covered with marks of lightning, strode out with a wild look on his face.

"It's great, it's really great, man, let's choose a time tomorrow and have a good fight."

Liu Laozhi had a heroic aura. After the extremely powerful iron-blooded murderous aura disappeared, a strong vitality emerged from his body, and all his injuries were completely healed in an instant.

Seeing this scene, everyone, including Yang Zhao, looked at Xiang Yutian for no apparent reason.

Xiang Yutian's face darkened, and he said, "Why are you all looking at me? I respect this man as a brave man, and I can't bear to hurt him too badly, so I will only strike him with 30% of the power of thunder."

It doesn’t matter whether it’s real or fake, as long as you maintain your status.

After all, he was a close and trusted minister, and also a meritorious minister. Yang Zhao did not want to reveal too much about his past. His gaze quickly shifted to the fierce general Liu Laozhi who strode out of the void.

Liu Laozhi is also a strong man who has taken two steps on the ceiling of Martial Saint.

But what is surprising is that Liu Laozhi does not seem to have any kind of light-weight skills. Even when he steps into the void, he relies entirely on his blood and energy to move forward.

Seeing everyone's surprise.

Xie Xuan said softly, "Laozhi was a general in our Northern Army in the past. There are few horses in the south, and they are not good at charging. Therefore, Laozhi set an example by sleeping, eating, and walking with his comrades. He did not practice Qinggong, but only followed the battlefield footwork."

When everyone heard this, they were surprised and also felt a lot of admiration.

Yang Zhao was even more impressed and said, "He is truly a good man, extremely brave, and has the talent to be a general."

"Your Highness is so complimentary."

As he spoke, Liu Laozhi had already come in front of Yang Zhao, knelt on one knee, saluted directly, and said: "Liu Laozhi of the Northern Army is willing to offer his true spirit and die for Your Highness from now on. I only ask for Your Highness's order."

Yang Zhao became interested and helped Liu Laozhi up with both hands, saying, "General Liu, please don't be so generous. It's a great honor to have a brave general like Laozhi serve you. If you have any requests, just tell me."

Liu Laozhi's face was filled with mixed feelings of sadness and joy, and he said, "I would like to ask you to build the Northern Army."

Hearing Liu Laozhi's words, people like Ghost Shadow Old Ancestor, Mu Qingliu, Mo Yiming, Xiang Yutian and others were all slightly shocked. Even Xie Xuan, the founder of the Northern Palace Army, frowned.

The Northern Army is extremely powerful and can be said to be the strongest army in the hundreds of years of history of the Great Jin Dynasty.

However, due to the strength of the Northern Palace Army, after Xie Xuan faked his death and left the world, Liu Laozhi was no match for the court ministers politically, causing the Northern Palace Army to become the private property of warlords for a time, and eventually became the main fighting force for Liu Yu to establish the Liu Song Dynasty.

But Liu Yu was a lawless person, known for his mighty power and the might of a tiger.

Liu Yu is a very powerful person, and so are the Northern Palace Army.

So after Liu Laozhi faked his death and went into seclusion, Liu Yu led the Northern Army to destroy five kingdoms, beheaded six emperors, and even encircled and suppressed the immortal gods who came down to earth.

Such a terrible existence is certainly not tolerated by anyone in the world.

Liu Yu's clan was exterminated, the Northern Army was completely disbanded, and several immortals and gods joined forces to curse that anyone who rebuilt the Northern Army would have no descendants and no incense in the future.

Chapter 606: Rebuilding the Northern Army

Once a person has power, no matter who he is, there will always be a time when he can float up.

The same is true for the military.

The Northern Army was founded by Xie Xuan. Under Xie Xuan's leadership, it defeated the 800,000-strong army of the Former Qin, the northern overlord at the time. It fought wars in the south, the north, the east and the west, and was very awesome.

After Xie Xuan faked his death and left the world, the Northern Army fell into the hands of Liu Laozhi.

Under Liu Laozhi's leadership, the Northern Army once shocked the world, fought against Wang Gong, and defeated Sun En, which was also very powerful.

At that time, the military spirit of the Northern Army had actually been born.

After several changes of hands, when the Northern Army finally fell into Liu Yu's hands, the military spirit was completely formed. Liu Yu, with 2700 Northern Army soldiers, was able to defeat 4 Xianbei cavalry.

Four thousand against fifty thousand, thirty thousand against ninety thousand, and one hundred thousand people will dare to run rampant in the world.

He destroyed five dynasties, killed six emperors, and strangled immortals and gods like rain.

From its creation to its demise, it can be said that it was the existence of the Northern Palace Army that destroyed hundreds of years of fortune of the Five Barbarians of the grassland, and even almost completely wiped out the immortal branch of the Changshengtian lineage.

That’s why the gods and immortals joined forces to curse the Northern Palace Army.

At the same time, this is also the reason why, since Liu Yu, many contenders for hegemony, knowing that the Northern Palace Army is extremely powerful and its heritage is scattered among the people, no one dared to rebuild the Northern Palace Army.

It would be fine if Liu Laozhi didn't know the inside story.

But knowing the inside story, and wanting to rebuild the Northern Army, this request can be said to be quite excessive.

So for a moment, the atmosphere among the crowd became solemn again.

After a pause, Yang Zhao looked at Liu Laozhi and said, "General Liu, do you know that rebuilding the Northern Army is very likely to be disadvantageous to me?"

Liu Laozhi was not afraid at all, and said straightforwardly: "Your Highness, although the gods are powerful, they may not be stronger than our human soldiers. The curse is terrible, but it cannot do anything to the real king. Liu Yu can still lead an army of 100,000 to dominate the world. If Your Highness allows me to have 100,000 soldiers, I can kill all the gods in heaven."

I have to say that Liu Laozhi is a very fierce and powerful man.

But what the other party said was reasonable.

Be it gods or curses, they are powerless against the truly strong and the kings who shake the world.

"Your method of provoking me is a bit crude."

"However, I will allow you to rebuild a hundred thousand Northern Army without killing all the gods in the sky. It will take half a year. After that, I will ask you to conquer Shuchuan for me. Do you dare to accept it?"

Yang Zhao waved his hand, interrupting the dissuasion of Mu Qingliu and others, and looked directly at Liu Laozhi.

Be it immortals or curses, Yang Zhao is not afraid of them.

Thousands of years ago during the Song Dynasty, Yang Zhao once plotted to kill a blood wolf god from Changshengtian on Dongting Lake.

Even in the process of unifying the Sui Dynasty, he was bound to have huge conflicts with the foreign tribes in the northern grasslands.

Back then, Liu Yu was still as bold as a tiger.

However, Yang Zhao did not think that he was any worse than Liu Yu. He was only stronger, more fierce, and more ambitious than him.

Just as mentioned before, the ruler and his subjects choose each other.

Although Liu Laozhi was a top-notch general and brave warrior hundreds of years ago, he could make his own requests when he paid homage to his master. Similarly, Yang Zhao could also make his own requests to Liu Laozhi.

Before the establishment of the Yun Dynasty, Yang Zhao had not noticed it.

Since he established his government and dynasty, with the help of heaven and earth, Yang Zhao discovered that the Sichuan and Shu areas of the Sui Dynasty were not as simple as he had imagined.

The land of Sichuan and Shu, although seemingly without any powerful forces, actually hides a fierce and violent atmosphere.

Sichuan is the granary.
