The poor teahouse owner was trembling with fear.
"No! This isn't true!"
The shopkeeper asked tremblingly, "Young master, would you like a refill?"
Zhao Kai's eyes were bloodshot. He had made up his mind: he would sneak into the Prince's mansion tonight!
With the red armor and talisman sent by Han Shengxuan, he was confident!
"Today, I will storm into the Tang Prince's mansion!"
As soon as he finished speaking, shouts suddenly erupted all around!
Suddenly, some burly warriors appeared on the streets!
"Kill!"
"Charge into the Prince's Palace!"
"Kill the Tang King!"
"Rob Miss Xu!"
Zhao Kai suddenly felt a little dazed. Could it be that the prince's words had become law?
Although these people all dressed like江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the martial arts world), their actions were quite methodical.
Zhao Kai, being of royal lineage, was naturally able to discern the difference.
These people are all soldiers, veterans of countless battles!
They shouted slogans and charged towards the Tang Prince's Mansion!
Could it be... that these people are all soldiers from Beiliang in disguise?
Neither the imperial court nor Northern Liang could openly break off relations.
But in private, things are a different story.
Zhao Kai was immediately invigorated!
"God is really helping me!"
"I knew it! I'm blessed with great luck!"
"Tonight, Jincheng is in chaos; it's the perfect time to take advantage of the situation!"
"Wei Xiong! I'm here to save you!"
Li Chang'an's personal guards had not yet arrived; at this time, the Tang Prince's residence was guarded by more than a thousand Yongzhou soldiers.
Suddenly, shouts of battle erupted outside the Prince's Mansion, alarming everyone inside.
"Protect the Prince's Palace!"
"Block the door right now!"
"These are no ordinary bandits!"
These Yongzhou soldiers were also specially selected by Tian Zong.
Tian Zong was also granted a noble title because of Li Chang'an's matter.
If all goes well, it's very possible that he will be transferred back to Tai'an or promoted one level.
These soldiers from Yongzhou were related to the powerful clans that Chu Lushan had wiped out.
Or perhaps they have a grudge against Beiliang in some other matter.
Li Chang'an has offended the Northern Liang, and these soldiers will surely fight hard to protect the Tang Emperor.
"Kill!"
The Beiliang soldiers, armed with ordinary broadswords, quickly engaged in fierce combat with the Yongzhou army!
These Northern Liang soldiers sent by Xu Fengnian were all loyal to Chu Lushan.
Xu Fengnian gathered Chu Lushan's loyal followers and then devised this plan.
The soldiers from Beiliang had no items on them that were related to Beiliang.
Even if they died in Jincheng, the imperial court would not be able to find any proof that these people were soldiers from Beiliang.
Soon, fighting broke out everywhere inside and outside the Prince's mansion!
The valiant Northern Liang soldiers, though lacking Northern Liang swords and armor, still possessed astonishing combat prowess.
The Yongzhou army consisted of Gu Jiantang's former troops, and their combat strength was far inferior.
Fortunately, the Yongzhou army was wearing armor, and for a time the two sides fought to a standstill!
Both sides were active-duty soldiers, and in a short time, limbs were scattered everywhere and blood flowed like a river!
As soon as Li Chang'an and Xu Weixiong stepped out of the room, they were surrounded by a group of men in black.
"Li Chang'an provoked Beiliang, and Xu Weixiong betrayed Beiliang; they must be executed without mercy!"
In the blink of an eye, the two were surrounded by ten men in black!
Xu Weixiong, holding the Crimson Dragon Sword, snorted softly, "The Falcon of the Water-Sweeping Chamber!"
"You're from the Qingliangshan headquarters, aren't you!"
Xu Weixiong guessed correctly; these falcons were indeed sent directly by Li Yishan.
A second-rank official in black sneered, "Shameless traitor! You still have the nerve to bear the surname Xu?"
Xu Weixiong's face was as cold as ice. "I still bear the surname Xu, so that I may remember my enemy!"
"One day, we'll slaughter the entire Xu family, and then we can acknowledge our ancestors and return to our roots!"
Li Chang'an knew that Eagle Falcon had more than a dozen second-rank minor grandmasters.
This time, five second-rank officials were actually dispatched!
However, these men in black clearly underestimated Li Chang'an's fighting strength!
Li Chang'an took a step and was already several feet away.
"Roar!"
As the dragon's roar resounded, Li Chang'an struck a second-rank eagle in the chest with his palm.
The powerful palm strike condensed into a golden dragon, which passed through the eagle's body.
"Vajra Realm! Li Chang'an is a first-rank master!"
"No wonder General Chu was defeated by you!"
The two second-rank falcons exchanged a glance, neither daring to be careless in the slightest!
Li Chang'an's strength is different from the intelligence they have obtained!
Eagles are warriors who risk their lives and the Northern Liang royal family for martial arts skills or wealth and honor.
Some fugitives who committed capital crimes in Liyang could also receive protection from the Beiliang Fushuifang.
Both of them were desperate criminals who had faced death several times, and they immediately launched a full-scale attack on Li Chang'an!
The blades flashed, and the sword shadows were numerous!
The two of them worked together to suppress Li Chang'an, and in the blink of an eye, they were upon him.
However, Li Chang'an's footwork was unpredictable, and his palm techniques were even more powerful.
Suddenly, he thrust out both palms simultaneously, executing a move called "Double Dragons Taking Water"!
Two golden dragons easily pierced the chests of two second-rank eagles!
Xu Wei's sword aura was like a rainbow. With a feint, he directly sliced off the skull of a second-rank eagle!
Just as Xu Wei drew his sword, Li Chang'an moved again!
The remaining men in black immediately guarded the door and stood ready for battle!
"Up there!"
One of them suddenly exclaimed!
Then, one of Li Chang'an's palms descended from the sky!
"boom!"
His palm strike transformed into a golden dragon, reaping the lives of three more men in black!
After landing, Li Chang'an realized that something was wrong with his surroundings.
With his full concentration, he quickly located the enemy's position!
Underground!
Without a second thought, Li Chang'an immediately rose into the air!
"Pfft!"
The ground tiles flew up, and a red figure flew out from the ground!
The red figure chased after Li Chang'an and flew straight into the sky!
