The Rise of The Mythical Dragon

The fire in Jincheng Palace was still burning, and it took three days and three nights to slowly extinguish it.

After entering the city, Li Shimin sat outside Jincheng Palace and watched the fire for three days. He did not leave Jincheng Palace until the fire was extinguished.

"Reporting to the King of Qin, a corpse was found among the ruins. It should be Dou Jiande's."

Duan Zhixuan bowed and then spoke to report, but he always felt that something was not appropriate.

As long as a hero like Dou Jiande can survive, he can become a serious trouble at the right time. Although Duan Zhixuan found an almost burned corpse from the ruins, it does not mean that Dou Jiande found a scapegoat.

Looking at Duan Zhixuan's expression, Li Shimin knew what he was thinking.

There was no expression on his face, he just turned his head and looked at Luo Xuan and others beside him.

As for Nabi Luxian and others, they all looked at the people in the Dragon Palace.

Now that Netherworld is in charge of Dragon Palace, they know very well whether this person is dead or not.

Feeling the gazes around him, Luo Xuan chuckled and said, "King Qin, don't worry too much, Dou Jiande is already dead."

The Immortal Master's words should still be listened to. When Luo Xuan said with certainty that Dou Jiande was dead, Li Shimin did not doubt that he was there.

Looking towards Duan Zhixuan, Li Shimin said: "Take the corpse and find a feng shui treasure to bury it."

Duan Zhixuan then bowed to accept the order and retreated slowly.

Seeing people leaving, Li Shimin looked at Luo Xuan, Pi Luxian and others, stood up and bowed to everyone.

"The battle in Hebei was able to end so quickly with almost no obstacles. It was all thanks to the efforts of the immortal families. I would like to thank you all for this."

"What's King Qin's next plan?"

Luo Xuan looked at Li Shimin, his eyes flashing, as if he was really asking Li Shimin what he was going to do next.

Without paying attention to Luo Xuan's gaze, Li Shimin said: "The south is undecided, and there are still Yu Wenhuaji and others."

"It's just mustard flakes to relieve the itching. Chang'an is the top priority."

Hearing this, Li Shimin was stunned for a moment. He really didn't understand the meaning of Luo Xuan's words.

I wanted to ask more, but suddenly I heard a rush of footsteps outside the house.

Looking back, he found that it was a messenger. Li Shimin immediately shrank his eyes and felt something strange in his heart. He glanced at Luo Xuan inadvertently.

"A decree from Chang'an!"

Li Shimin, Li Jing and others hurriedly stepped forward and knelt on the ground. As for Luo Xuan and others, even if they wanted to kneel, they were afraid that Li Yuan's will would not be able to withstand the worship of the immortal.

The messenger also knew the identities of Luo Xuan and others, so he ignored them. He just unfolded the decree in his hand and began to read it out.

"Li Shimin, King of Qin, demonstrated our great power in the Tang Dynasty in the battle of Hebei. His merits should be rewarded. He will be given the title of Minister of the Ministry of War of the King of Qin and control all the troops! He ordered us to set off for Chang'an today!"

The messenger had a faint smile on his face, smiled at Li Shimin, and handed the imperial edict in his hand to Li Shimin.

"I would like to congratulate the King of Qin. This battle will exalt the majesty of the Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin stared blankly at the imperial edict in his hand, because he did not understand the purpose of this edict.

Looking at Luo Xuan, he found that Luo Xuan was also silent. Li Shimin knew that if he wanted to know the answer, he would have to return to Chang'an to find out.

…

Jinyang City

Since Liu Wuzhou occupied Jinyang City, he has called this place the king of the capital, which can be said to have caused a lot of trouble for the Li family.

Li Jiancheng, who was responsible for guarding the city, could be said to have fled in the face of the wind. Even the Holy Mother of Fire Spirits, who came to help from the three religions, was left behind in the army.

If it weren't for the hard support of the Holy Mother of Fire Spirit, all the three Jin lands would not have fallen into Liu Wuzhou's hands.

And after Long Ao led his troops, in just one month, only Jinyang was left unconquered in the three Jin areas.

It had been a day since the troops arrived at the city. It was different from the previous time when Long Ao's troops had just arrived and wanted to attack the city. It can be said that there was no sign of attacking the city among the Tang army.

Cheng Yaojin held a big ax in his hand, his face full of doubts. He turned to look at Luo Shixin on his side, and then on Yu Chigong on the other side.

"What do Duke Long Guo think?"

All the generals gathered in the big tent, but Long Ao's voice was the only one missing.

Cheng Yaojin waited for a long time, and he couldn't help but feel a little confused, so he asked.

"I don't know. Duke Long Guo has his own considerations. We just have to obey orders." Yuchi Gong said in a low voice.

After joining the Tang Army, especially fighting under Long Ao, it was extremely enjoyable. Fighting would start at the slightest disagreement, without any room for negotiation.

Killing all the way like this can be said to be killing gods and Buddhas.

There were dozens, if not hundreds, of Western Cult disciples who died in Long Ao's hands, and there were also several Western Cult masters who died in their military formations.

Everyone in the army had only one word for Long Ao: surrender!

It's just that after the soldiers surrounded Jinyang, they didn't take action for a day. Do they have any scruples?

Just as everyone was muttering in their hearts, a slight cough suddenly occurred to the military tent, and the mutterings of the people instantly fell silent.

This was Immortal Master Fire Spirit Madonna reminding them all that someone was coming.

Long Ao walked into the military tent wearing a battle armor, with a calm expression on his face. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, and everyone became more and more confused.

After Long Ao sat down, he looked around at everyone, and then said, "Are you all here?"

"I'll wait until I see the commander-in-chief!"

Long Ao nodded slightly, and then said: "The war in Hebei is over. Dou Jiande burned himself in the palace. After Jinyang is pacified, there will be no more war in the north."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an uproar in the military tent, and then they all looked at Long Ao.

Cheng Yaojin was outspoken and stepped forward and asked: "Long Commander! We have been besieging Jinyang for a day, when are we going to attack the city?"

I saw that Long Ao was not angry. Instead, he looked at Cheng Yaojin and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I want someone to come and see with your own eyes how Jinyang was breached."

When they heard this, everyone was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding what they meant.

Looking at everyone, Long Ao said calmly: "There are changes in Chang'an. After Chang'an is stabilized, we will attack Jinyang."

As he spoke, Long Ao's eyes flashed coldly, and he said in a cold tone: "When Liu Wuzhou attacked Jinyang, the Tang Dynasty lost more than 100,000 soldiers. Even Luo Shixin almost died here."

"Li Jiancheng retreated without fighting, and he should be punished for his crime."

As soon as he finished speaking, it was unusually quiet in the big tent. Everyone looked at Long Ao in horror and felt a little surprised in their hearts.

It sounded like a treasonous thing to say, but Long Ao said it so naturally. What everyone was more curious about was what Long Ao said about Chang'an's change.

When he was wondering, Long Ao turned to look at Yuchi Gong, Cheng Yaojin and the two men, and said calmly: "Today you and I will lead fifty thousand troops and return to Chang'an. The King of Qin is in danger, so we must protect the King of Qin."

The two were stunned for a moment, but they still took a step forward, took the weapon talisman, and turned to leave.

It was impossible for Long Ao to betray the Tang Dynasty, and the King of Qin was in danger. They were old ministers of the King of Qin's palace, so naturally they turned around and left the tent without any further questions.

The remaining people looked at this scene with some confusion in their hearts. They always felt that something big was going to happen, but they didn't know what big thing could require so many soldiers and horses.

Long Ao had a faint sneer on his lips, and turned his head to look in the direction of Chang'an.
