Chapter 258 Li Qinxue
Li Qinxue was extremely angry.
Although Princess Shisan of the Great Tang Xian Dynasty didn't have much prestige, she was still a princess. As her milk sister, Li Qinxue naturally benefited from her status.
But that wasn't important. What was important was that, with the help of Li Jinrong's connections, she had access to a large number of resources and techniques. Instead of slacking off, she worked very hard. With her efforts, she carved out a place for herself in the Jing'an Department, a powerful department that thrived on bloodshed.
Her idea was simple. It was hopeless for her milk sister to inherit the throne, but as a carefree princess, she could still make it. By honing her skills and protecting her sister, she would not betray the bond they formed from drinking the same mother's milk.
However, to her shock, Emperor Chongling showed no fatherly love or familial affection. Faced with the invasion of the northern barbarians, instead of strengthening the military and resisting aggression, he wanted to sell his daughter and seek mercy from the invaders.
The daughter being sold was her milk sister, Princess Shisan Li Jinrong, who had no power or influence and lacked the support of a powerful maternal clan.
When she heard this news, she spent three days and three nights getting drunk with Li Jinrong. But no matter how they thought about it, they couldn't accept this cruel reality.
Fortunately, one day, a high-ranking expert from the Langhuan Heavenly Palace passed by Anyang Capital. Li Qinxue, who had come into contact with a lot of information from the cultivation world in the Jing'an Department, immediately informed Li Jinrong of this news.
As long as she became an official disciple of the Langhuan Heavenly Palace and had the protection of the sect's sacred land, she wouldn't have to do anything for the Xian Dynasty anymore.
Knowing this, Li Jinrong took many risks and went to seek them out. Her aptitude was already good, and coupled with her determined character, she impressed the high-ranking expert from the Langhuan Heavenly Palace, who gave her the Langhuan Method and made her a student.
The reputation of the Langhuan Heavenly Palace was well-known, and the Great Tang Xian Dynasty couldn't confront them directly. They could only agree to Li Jinrong's entry into the heavenly palace under strict conditions.
This is the truth about Li Jinrong entering the Langhuan Heavenly Palace.
In this process, Li Qinxue undoubtedly played a significant role.
And because of this, she has suffered retaliation from all sides.
During the two years Li Jinrong studied at the Langhuan Heavenly Palace, it was also her unlucky period. Her position as a Jing'an Division Colonel was revoked, and she was thrown to the outskirts of Anyang Jing to patrol. Moreover, she was targeted by the second-generation dog who bullied people. This pervert not only indiscriminately killed innocent people but also made malicious remarks against her.
She was truly angry.
But she was also helpless.
Not to mention her assistance to the milk sisters, which had already offended various parties. Even if those parties didn't target her, she couldn't afford to provoke this second-generation dog in front of her. Not only did the other party come from a high-ranking and influential family, but they also joined the Pilgrimage Sect.
Provoking their family was not a big deal; she could just leave the Jing'an Division and stop being an official.
But provoking the Pilgrimage Sect... Thinking about the means those flower monks used to mistreat women, her face became extremely gloomy.
After all, she was not a real princess, just the milk sister of a princess. This title could protect her for a while, but not for a lifetime.
(Perhaps it's time to leave the Great Tang Xian Dynasty.)
Listening to the screams and wails of innocent people being ravaged by monsters, she sighed and clenched her fists.
It is said that the Thirteenth Princess has married in the Langhuan Heavenly Palace. Although it is quite outrageous for a princess of a country to become a concubine, it seems to prove that she has made the right choice, as the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty can no longer harm her.
She might as well go and seek refuge with her milk sisters... ... I can't bear it anymore!
Just as she was about to flee for her life, the sky suddenly lit up with magnificent crystal arcs.
Gathering and swirling, the flying monsters that were preparing to pounce and prey were instantly exploded and fell to the ground, screaming.
Of the approximately thirty flying monsters, almost half of them were blown up in just one attack. The methods of the person who made the move shocked the second generation, causing them to tremble and shout.
"Who? Who dares to touch my Cloud Hunting Beast? Don't they know that my father is Duke Deng of the Tang Immortal Dynasty?"
Duke Deng is a second-class duke of the Great Tang Immortal Dynasty, a powerful figure who can shake Anyang City with a stomp of his foot. There are only a few dozen people above his position in terms of power. As his offspring, it's no wonder that he is so arrogant and treats human lives as insignificant.
However, the response to him was another attack from the crystal arcs.
The lackeys around the second generation were terrified, and those who were knowledgeable had already figured out what these crystal arcs were. They cried out in horror, "Young master, run! These are military fairy crossbows that even dragons cannot defend against!"
Everyone looked in the direction of the magical crossbows, but the imposing figure of the Lanfeng Number was still far away, like a sesame seed. However, this place was already within its precise attack range!
The son of Duke Deng Guogong's face has turned green. Even if he is arrogant and domineering, he wouldn't dare to challenge such a powerful military weapon!
"Let's go, quickly take me away from here. I'll go back and tell my father about that damn bastard who tampered with the military equipment!"
The cloud hunting beasts he brought were attacking the people below, so the Lanfeng ship prioritized shooting them down to save the people. At this point, most of these man-eating monsters had fallen, and if he didn't leave soon, the next batch would probably be his turn.
However, he left too late.
The fairy crossbow used by the Lanfeng ship not only had great power, but also a fast loading speed. The arrows it shot out were also equipped with tracking spells, like cruise missiles. The son of Duke Deng Guogong and his lackeys riding on the cloud hunting beasts were as slow as tractors, and there was no way they could escape from these special arrows.
They would eventually have to pay for their indiscriminate killing.
Chu, who was already filled with negative emotions about the incident in Luozhou City, felt that the behavior of the son of Duke Deng Guogong and his group was simply adding fuel to the fire. Among the people they bullied were close relatives of Chu's, and now even Jesus couldn't save them. In the beautiful crystalline light, whether they were noble sons or lowly servants, they were all treated equally and turned into fireworks.
"Feels good," Chu Shen looked at the disappearing son of Duke Deng Guogong and his group on the pseudo-eight-zhang mirror, feeling much more pleased. "Provide some assistance to the people below, and it's best to persuade them to leave here and seek refuge elsewhere. Given the current state of the Tang Xian Dynasty, they might face retaliation if they stay here."
Chu Shen, after all, was not one of those impulsive heroes. After enjoying the satisfaction of revenge, he didn't neglect the loose ends. With the bloody scene in Luozhou City as a lesson, he had no confidence in the integrity of the Tang Xian Dynasty's court.
Wang Chongyao immediately assigned several disciples to fly down on their swords and persuade the villagers to evacuate. Following Chu Shen's instructions, they also provided some gold and silver as assistance, fulfilling their duty.
Li Qinxue was then invited aboard the Lanfeng ship.
"You must be Li Qinxue, the milk sister of Jinrong. It's nice to meet you. I am her lost husband."
