"I won't listen to your nonsense anymore. I'm going to go see Long Er to see if they have finished their homework today..."

After saying that, the always stubborn and arrogant Elder Yu rolled his eyes at Su Liu, then turned around and left as if he was escaping.

Looking at the exquisite and charming figure, Su Liu's mouth curled up into a faint smile, with a hint of playfulness in his eyes, and he murmured to himself:

"Hard on the outside but soft on the inside, what an interesting woman..."

After saying that, Su Liu sighed again and turned to look at the vast sea of ​​clouds outside the Zixiao Palace. He seemed to have remembered something, and his eyes became a little vague. He muttered to himself:

"I don't know how Feixuan is doing now."

"Alas, this silly girl is the same. Although she looks cold and aloof, she is actually very soft-hearted. She values ​​friendship the most and must go back to give an explanation to that damn nun Fan Qinghui..."

Chapter 1237: Sui and Tang dynasties are in chaos, and a hidden dragon is about to rise!

"Alas, there is nothing wrong in the world, but there are always ambitious people who stir up trouble..."

Su Liu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the vast sea of ​​clouds outside the window. A trace of emotion emerged in his eyes, and his thoughts gradually drifted to half a month ago.

...

In fact, at first, Su Liu did not plan to return to Zhongnan Mountain directly, but was thinking of traveling around the Sui Dynasty with Shi Feixuan.

But God doesn't follow people's wishes.

Just when Su Liu and Shi Feixuan were planning to travel around the world and set foot in the secular world, they suddenly heard a rumor that shocked the entire Sui Dynasty.

Cihang Jingzhai selected the emperor of this generation.

And this future emperor was not Kou Zhong or Xu Ziling who were endowed with dragon energy, nor was he Li Shimin who was like the reincarnation of a phoenix, but a candidate who was beyond Su Liu's expectations.

Li Mi.

When hearing this rumor, even with Su Liu's usually calm temperament, he couldn't help but feel a little dazed, and wondered if he had heard it wrong.

But on second thought, it was not unreasonable for Cihang Jingzhai to choose Li Mi.

Under his intervention, the situation of the entire Sui Dynasty has now become very different from its original development. Not only has the Li clan been dormant, but the power of the Yuwen clan has also been greatly reduced.

Therefore, in times of chaos, hidden dragons emerge.

Li Mi came from a distinguished family. His father, Li Kuan, was the Supreme Pillar of the Sui Dynasty and the Duke of Pushan County. Li Mi himself was also very capable and was a very remarkable hero in the official history of the Sui and Tang dynasties. Therefore, it was not an exaggeration that he was favored by Cihang Jingzhai.

Moreover, Li Mi is now in Wagang Village. Relying on his background and ability, he has reached the level of commander-in-chief. He has even sidelined the original leader of Wagang Village, Zhai Rang, Zhai Jiao's father, and firmly controls the power of the entire Wagang Village. He has also united with various small rebel forces nearby. Now he has nearly 100,000 soldiers under his command.

It can definitely be called a powerful force that cannot be ignored in the chaotic times at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

What's more, others don't know, but Su Liu knows it.

Li Mi's background is very complicated. Not only does he come from a noble family, but he may also have the support of the Demonic Sect in secret.

And now, no one knows what means this guy used, or what promises he made, but he has established connections with Buddhist forces such as Cihang Jingzhai.

Now, occupying Wagangzhai, commanding a hundred thousand soldiers, and backed by the powerful forces of Buddhism and Demonism, Li Mi, the giant python, has grown into a giant dragon.

It is no exaggeration to say that if he is really given some more time, or if he encounters an opportunity, it may not be impossible for him to transform into a latent dragon and soar into the sky.

After learning about this, Su Liu was not worried about Li Mi, but was extremely worried about Kou Zhong, Xu Ziling, and Zhai Jiao who had previously rushed to Wagangzhai.

According to the original trend, there should be no problem for the three of them to rush to Wagangzhai.

With the wisdom of Zhai Jiao and the martial arts of Shuanglong, the three of them worked together to rescue the leader Zhai Rang and then it was not difficult to quell the rebellion.

But now, the situation has been disrupted by the Buddha and the Demon.

Maybe things are not that simple.

Worried, Su Liu decisively changed his itinerary and rushed to Wagangzhai with Shi Feixuan that day. His master came out again to protect him.

And this new journey and story begins from here.

This time, Su Liu wants to slay the dragon! .

Chapter 1238 The past of Wagangzhai!

Half a month ago, Wagangzhai.

It's the middle of the night.

The moon is dark and the wind is strong, and the world is gloomy.

Under the sad and beautiful moonlight, three figures shuttled along the edge of the cliff like ghosts. After a moment, they came to a very hidden waterfall.

"Yes, it is here. There is a small cave hidden under this waterfall. When I was a child, I often came out of the city to play!"

A heroic girl took off her veil, revealing an ordinary yet resolute face.

This woman was no one else but Zhai Jiao, the daughter of Zhai Rang, the former leader of Wagang Village, and one of Su Liu's earlier disciples.

At this moment, Zhai Jiao looked calm and serious, and whispered to the two people behind her:

"We will sneak into the village from here secretly, don't alert anyone, quietly rescue my father, and then get out from here. Do you understand?"

"Don't worry, Gillian, we will definitely be able to rescue the big dragon head this time!"

Xu Ziling was as calm and reliable as always.

Kou Zhong smiled and said:

"Ah Jiao, why don't you just listen to me!"

"The three of us can take advantage of this dark and windy night to sneak into that bastard Li Mi's room, kill this disloyal man with one knife, and then take his head as a gift to the leader. Isn't that better?"

Upon hearing this, Zhai Jiao was furious and punched Kou Zhong hard, saying angrily:

"Shut up, you!"

Then, she ignored Kou Zhong who was grinning and said in a deep voice:

"Listen to me, don't do anything reckless. This time, the master has said that both of you must obey my orders, especially you, Kou Zhong. Do you understand?"

Kou Zhong grimaced, rubbed his body in pain, and said helplessly: "Okay, you are the boss, we will listen to you!"

Seeing this, Xu Ziling shook his head and said to Zhai Jiao: "Don't worry, A Jiao, this time, the three of us will work together and we will definitely succeed!"

Zhai Jiao nodded, then turned around, bent down, and was the first to take the lead and enter the narrow cave behind the waterfall.

"Without further delay, let's get started!"

"You two, follow me!"

Xu Ziling did not hesitate and followed Zhai Jiao directly. Seeing this, Kou Zhong curled his lips, but still went in obediently.

The three-person team's rescue plan officially began.

...

Meanwhile, on the other side.

In the dungeon of Wagangzhai.

A middle-aged man was soaking in the cold water dungeon. His once strong body had now become frail. Perhaps due to torture, his body was covered with countless scars, with blood faintly flowing. Some of the wounds had even festered, emitting a foul odor.

He was wearing extremely heavy shackles and chains all over his body, and his whole body was immersed in the freezing cold water. His simple clothes could not resist the coldness at all. There were even a group of insects crawling on his exposed skin. He looked horrible.

Who could have imagined that this disheveled middle-aged man would be Zhai Rang, the leader of the Wagang Camp, who was once a hero with great righteousness and heroic spirit and was admired by all the outlaws?

Not to mention others, even Zhai Jiao, her own daughter, might not recognize her! .

Chapter 1239 Li Mi’s ambition!

The world has changed, and the sea has changed.

Who could have imagined that Zhai Rang, the leader of Wagangzhai who once spent lavishly and was so heroic that heroes from all corners of the country would bow down to him at his command, would now end up in such a state?

Even he himself did not expect that a momentary change of mind back then would lead to such an outcome.

He was famous for his benevolence and righteousness throughout his life, but in the end he was trapped by the reputation of benevolence and righteousness, was betrayed by those around him, and eventually ended up as a prisoner.

Feeling the freezing cold water, Zhai Rang opened his eyes with difficulty, and with his heavily shackled hands, he struggled to brush away the insects crawling around on his body. Then he looked towards Zhou Chao, couldn't help but let out a miserable laugh, and muttered to himself:

"I, Zhai Rang, was a hero all my life, but in the end I ended up with such a miserable fate of living among insects."

"My God, you really treat me well..."

After saying that, Zhai Rang frowned, as if he had noticed something. The hatred in his eyes was burning like a flame. He looked up at the dark top of the water dungeon, gritted his teeth, endured the humiliation, and said angrily:

"Li Mi, you beast, now that you are here, why don't you come in? Are you too embarrassed to see me, your old brother?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a slow and gentle laugh suddenly sounded outside the dungeon and echoed in the cell.

"Brother Zhai, what you said is wrong."

"I will always remember your kindness in my heart. If you hadn't taken me in, I would probably still be a homeless dog. How could I be in the situation I am in today?"

As the chuckle sounded, a figure slowly stepped into the dungeon and came in front of Zhai Rang calmly.

Zhai Rang suddenly raised his head and looked at the figure walking towards him with a look of grief and anger. His eyes were full of hatred and he said sternly:

"Li Mi, you are a disloyal and unrighteous thief!"

"I shouldn't have taken you in in the first place, let alone become your sworn brother. If I had known this would happen, I would have watched you die outside the city, letting wild dogs devour your body!"

The people outside the prison looked down at Zhai Rang who was immersed in the water dungeon as if they were watching a play. On his handsome face, with a contemptuous smile, he said lightly:

"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place?"

"Brother, you should also know that if Wagangzhai is still under your command, then it will always be known as a thief and dominate the green forest."

"And now, the Wagangzhai that I lead is the righteous army that resists the tyrannical Sui Dynasty. We are the savior of all the people in the world. When I raise my arm and call for help, all the righteous armies in the world will follow me."

"Sooner or later, I will seize this world, replace the Sui Dynasty, and become the new master of this world!"

Perhaps because he was certain that Zhai Rang could not escape death, Li Mi no longer concealed his ambition at this moment, but directly stated his ultimate dream that he had been planning for many years, moving forward step by step, and even working hard by any means necessary.

The throne of emperor.

That’s right, Li Mi was not a man of the world. What he pursued was neither martial arts nor fame, but power, real power, the power to rule the world.

Over the years, he has had only one goal, which is to overthrow the tyrannical Sui Dynasty and become the new emperor!

And now, after capturing Wagangzhai and gaining the support of Buddhism, his plan was already half successful.

The long-coveted throne of the emperor seemed to be right before his eyes, within his grasp! .

Chapter 1240: Regret the past, a thought of mercy!

"You won't make it!"

Just when Li Mi was fantasizing about seizing the throne and becoming emperor in the future, a sarcastic sneer dragged him back to reality.

Li Mi's face was gloomy and his eyes were dark. He looked coldly at the guy who was soaking in the pool and looked miserable. The murderous intent in his eyes was not concealed at all. He sneered:

"I will take the responsibility for success or failure. As for you, you are just a loser. Are you qualified to judge me?"

Zhai Rang grinned and said disdainfully:

“Since ancient times, those who have accomplished great things have all been heroic, tolerant and forgiving, and have the ambition to embrace the universe.”

"And you are nothing but a despicable villain who plots in secret. You are disloyal, unrighteous, and unfilial. You are not even worthy of being a hero. How can you get the throne of the emperor?"

Hearing this, Li Mi's face became even gloomier, veins faintly bulged on his forehead, and he said coldly:

"After being locked up for a few days, you've become much more eloquent than before. It seems like you've been living too comfortably."

"Someone, give him some ingredients!"

Following Li Mi's order, several men in black filed in.

The jailers were holding two huge iron buckets filled with something unknown, which they poured directly into the pool where Zhai Rang was soaking.

It was not until then that Zhai Rang could see clearly what were the things that were poured into the pool. They turned out to be dozens or even hundreds of huge, pitch-black leeches.

No one knew where these leeches were caught from, but they were several times larger than those in ordinary water. As soon as they were moved into the water, they were attracted by the smell of blood and swam towards Zhai Rang like flies.

"Li Mi, you beast!!!"

"Kill me if you dare. As long as I am alive, I will chop you into pieces sooner or later!!!"

Zhai Rang's eyes were bloodshot and his body was covered with huge leeches.

In an instant, he felt the blood flowing out of his body, and an unbearable itchy and painful feeling continued to emerge from every inch of exposed skin.

Under this inhuman torture, even though Zhai Rang was a hero with a very strong character, he still could not endure such extreme pain. He let out terrible growls from his throat, as miserable as a dying beast.

Li Mi stood with his hands folded, watching with interest the elder brother whom he had respected so much in the past, who was enduring this hellish torture. There was even a look of great enjoyment in his eyes, and he said with a smile:

"It is said in the martial arts world that Zhai Rang, the leader of the Wagang Camp, is a great hero and a man of steel. Today, it seems that the rumors are a bit exaggerated. It is nothing more than that."
