The Rise of The Mythical Dragon

Chang'an, Daming Palace

After the defeat of Jinyang, Prince Li Jiancheng fled back to Chang'an City.

However, after returning to the capital, although he escaped death, he was banned from the East Palace by Li Yuan and could not enter or leave the East Palace without an edict.

The battle in Jinyang was heartbreaking for Li Yuan. He originally thought that with the help of the Immortal Family, and Li Jiancheng had a hundred thousand soldiers, no matter how powerful Liu Wuzhou was, he was no match for the Tang Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, after being defeated in the first battle, Li Jiancheng fled back to Chang'an City before the Immortal Family of the Three Religions could intervene.

It would be fine if he lost his troops, but on the contrary, he almost trapped the immortals of the three religions to death in the battle formation.

With the support of the Three Sects and the Dragon Palace behind him, Li Yuan had the confidence to compete with the various rebel kings supported by the Western Sect to fight for the world. However, his own son almost killed the immortal. Wasn't this cutting off his own path?

Fortunately, Long Ao took action in time, so it didn't cause a catastrophe.

Li Jiancheng, who had only been banned for a month, appeared in the Daming Palace, strolling leisurely, but no one dared to stop him.

A chamberlain followed behind him. After Li Jiancheng walked a few steps, he asked without looking back: "How's it going in the palace?"

Upon hearing the inquiry, the chamberlain hurriedly lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, if someone is watching, there will be no accidents."

"Is there any news from Your Majesty?" Li Jiancheng's eyes flashed, and then he asked.

"His Holiness said that the matter is extremely secretive and no one else can detect it. Your Highness can act with confidence."

"Don't worry? My brother will return to Beijing tomorrow, and he has many powerful generals under his command."

"The King of Qin does not have a large number of soldiers and horses now, and will only lead his own bodyguard back to the capital. What the Lord means is that instead of worrying about the King of Qin, it is better to worry about Long Ao who is far away in Jinyang."

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Jiancheng trembled, obviously a little afraid of the name.

He had stayed in the Dragon Temple with his mother for a while, and he knew how powerful Long Ao was, but what made Li Jiancheng resentful was that Long Ao never valued him.

The second brother Li Shimin and the fourth brother Li Yuanba both have a good relationship with Long Ao, but he is like an outsider.

The same was true for the Battle of Jinyang. Before he sent out troops, Long Ao didn't even give any instructions. On the other hand, Li Shimin directly gave 50,000 Xuanjia soldiers when he sent out troops.

It was clear at a glance which one was more important, and Long Ao's identity was extremely noble, and he only knew a little bit about it.

But he knew that only those who win Long Ao in this dynasty can ascend to the throne.

Li Shimin had already made outstanding achievements, and now that he had Long Ao's help, Li Jiancheng became even more uneasy.

During the first battle in Jinyang, he saw the power of the Western Sect. Although he was defeated and fled, he established a relationship with the Western Sect.

Venerable Dharma King Bodhi is the immortal master who came out to help him this time. His methods are as powerful as those of some immortal masters he has seen.

Thinking of this, Li Jiancheng nodded slightly, and then said: "Long Ao has a special status and cannot be touched lightly."

"If King Qin dies and this great man has no choice, the Three Religions and Dragon Temple will have no choice but to choose His Highness the Crown Prince."

The waiter smiled slightly and said, with an inexplicable light shining in his expression. After Li Jiancheng heard this, a smile appeared on his face.

…

In the palace of the Ming Dynasty, Li Yuan looked pale. He lay on the bed and coughed violently a few times. Then he shouted with some difficulty: "Here comes someone!"

The hall was surprisingly quiet, but there was no movement at all, which made Li Yuan feel increasingly uneasy.

Since some time ago, he suddenly became seriously ill. There is no one in the capital now, only the prince is still under confinement in the East Palace. The reaction in the palace is really not right.

He struggled to get up, but Li Yuan found that his limbs were weak and even turning over was extremely difficult.

"Come here! Are they all dead!?"

Roars rang out in the hall, but there was still no answer. After struggling for a while, Li Yuan felt his vision go dark and passed out.

In the palace, behind a curtain, an old man in yellow robes walked out slowly. His eyes fell on Li Yuan indifferently, but under the moonlight, he looked kind and kind.

Holding a string of rosary beads in his hand, he slowly turned them, his lips parted slightly, as if he was murmuring something in a low voice, and then he saw the other party slowly walking out of the palace.

Looking up at the moonlight, the old man sighed: "My concentration is getting worse and worse. A mere dragon vein can actually look like this."

"Your Majesty!"

Suddenly there was a voice behind him, and the old man said without looking back: "What's wrong?"

"The King of Qin will enter the capital tomorrow. The imperial edict has been announced. Li Shimin will enter the palace from Xuanwu Gate."

The old man nodded slightly, and then said: "That's enough. This is our last chance. If we can master the Li Tang Dragon Vein, we will rule the world of the Western Sect in the next few hundred years."

"I'll understand later!"

After hearing this, the old man said slowly: "Kill Li Yuan after the death of King Qin, and put the name of regicide on King Qin's head, so that the prince can successfully ascend the throne."

The person in the darkness responded softly, a breeze blew by, and there was no movement in the darkness.

…

"Hush!"

After reining in the reins, Li Shimin raised his head and glanced at Chang'an City, his eyes flashing, and then he saw a chamberlain walking over.

After taking a look, he found that he didn't know the chamberlain. He was a little confused, but he heard the chamberlain say: "The King of Qin has accepted the order!"

After hearing this, Li Shimin hurriedly got off his horse and knelt on the ground to listen to the order.

"After the King of Qin enters the capital, he enters the palace to meet the saint and conducts the Xuanwu Sect!"

As soon as the decree was finished, Li Shimin frowned, with a strange light shining in his eyes.

It's nothing to enter the palace to meet the saint, but this is the first time I heard that you have to go through the Xuanwu Gate. Now there are regulations on which gate to go to when entering the palace?

Li Shimin, who was confused, took the imperial edict, then got on his horse and walked towards Xuanwu Gate.

At this time, Li Shimin didn't know that someone in Xuanwu Sect was already waiting for him.

On the tower of Xuanwu Gate, Li Jiancheng was sitting behind the desk. After taking a sip of tea, he asked, "Is anyone here?"

Upon hearing the inquiry, the chamberlain behind him hurriedly said: "The people have entered the city and are on their way to Xuanwu Gate."

Hearing this, Li Jiancheng tightened his hand and his eyes flashed.

"Be prepared and wait for my military orders. As soon as anyone enters the door, I will fire thousands of arrows."

"I will obey His Majesty's orders."

Stopping at the gate of the palace, Li Shimin glanced at the top of the city tower, feeling a little confused and feeling that something was not quite right.

At this moment, the captain from the opposite side came over.

After bowing to Li Shimin, he said: "His Royal Highness, King Qin, there is a ban in the palace. You need to hand in your weapons when passing through the Xuanwu Gate."

Li Shimin was not surprised when he heard this. There was indeed such a ban in the palace.

Putting his hand on the long sword at his waist, Li Shimin was just about to take off the long sword at his waist, but when his ears moved, he suddenly heard a sound of string control.

Although it was extremely slight, I could still hear clearly. This was thanks to Long Ao's professor.

His eyes glanced at the school captain inadvertently, and when he saw the strange look on his face, Li Shimin was heartbroken. He suddenly put his hand on the hilt of the sword, and the long sword was unsheathed with a "crack" sound, and the blade was instantly placed on the famous school captain. Lieutenant's neck.

"Prince Qin! What are you going to do!?"

The sudden change made the captain suddenly stunned, and he looked at Li Shimin with a look full of surprise.
