Chapter 406 The Destined Betrayal
Of course, it was Li Ye.
Li Ye glanced at Li Keyong and Yelv Abaoji, and his gaze lingered on Yelv Abaoji inexplicably for a moment. “Yelv Abaoji?”
Of course, he knew Yelv Abaoji.
In his previous life, after he ascended the throne, Qidan invaded Yingzhou in the northeast and became another big border threat of the Tang Empire. Zhu Wen occupied the Central Plains and fought against Li Keyong, who was the Emperor of the Jin Dynasty, for many years. Yelv Abaoji once allied with Li Keyong and made an appointment to deal with Zhu Wen together.
However, Yelv Abaoji broke faith with Li Keyong. He attacked the states and counties under Li Keyong’s jurisdiction and brought him a lot of troubles and casualties. Li Keyong was so angry that he asked his son to avenge him and fight north to Qidan, before he died.
Unexpectedly, Li Keyong already reached the dead end now, and Yelv Abaoji came to find him. This was destiny.
Yelv Abaoji had never seen Li Ye before. At first, he didn’t know the one who looked down at them in the air was the young Prince An, who stirred up trouble in the Tang Empire so that the religion of God had to deal with him in advance.
Yelv Abaoji looked up and saw the black-robed man standing alone in the air. He was graceful and leisure. He wasn’t arrogant, and he didn’t shout angrily, but his calm tone showed his overwhelming confidence.
His clothes fluttered automatically. Even at a distance, Yelv Abaoji could also feel his high spirits. His cultivation power spread out and enveloped the whole place with his own strength. It was so dazzling that it was as if there were two bright moons in the night sky.
Yelv Abaoji’s eyes brightened. As an influential figure who swept all the tribes in the grassland in Qidan, he had his own pride and confidence. But at this time, he couldn’t help but feel envious. “There is such a hero in the world? There is a galaxy of talents in the Tang Empire!”
In contrast to Yelv Abaoji’s appreciation, Li Keyong narrowed his eyes when he saw Li Ye. He squeezed out two gloomy words from his teeth. “Li Ye!”
As Yelv Abaoji heard his words, his expression changed. “Is this Prince An, Li Ye? He’s well-known all over the world, and even the high priest is concerned about him. He’s really extraordinary!”
Li Keyong said coldly, “Do you still have time to praise him?”
Yelv Abaoji’s smile was pure, but what he said was clear and definite. “Don’t be angry. I’m not taking it personally, but Prince An’s demeanor is indeed much better than yours!”
Li Keyong was so angry that his face turned pale. “Who are you helping? Who on earth is your ally?”
Looking at Li Ye, Yelv Abaoji continued, “Only people like Prince An are qualified to be the enemies of the religion of God. He’s dazzling yet restrained, proud yet contained, and intelligent yet low-profiled. It’s my honor to be born in the world and compete for the hegemony of the world with such a person!”
His words were full of praise, but his eyes were full of fighting spirits. As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his hand and suddenly shouted, “Then, let me see how powerful he is!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a cultivator in black of the religion of God and a secular cultivator in aristocratic clothes of Qidan flew up from the roof and rushed toward Li Ye.
They were extremely fast. The ultimate Spiritual Qi went around them. As they flew, the Spiritual Qi left two dazzling white tracks in the night sky.
Li Keyong’s expression became serious. He was keenly aware that these two cultivators had more powerful cultivation than him. They were the Yang Spiritual Masters!
When Li Ye saw the two cultivators in the Yang Spiritual Master, his mouth curved into a disdainful smile. “You’re so weak that you should herd sheep in the grassland. How dare you take such liberties in the Tang Empire!”
He didn’t take out his Luke Sword but just took a deep breath into his Elixir Field. His fists punched toward the two people. “Cloud-gathering Punch!”
In the sky under the moonlight, several purple clouds suddenly rose and then, they spread suddenly, like blooming peonies. In an instant, clouds gathered in the air, and it looked gorgeous. The two solid big purple fists went through the clouds and reached the faces of the two Qidan cultivators.
The two Qidan cultivators were shocked at the same time.
They only saw Li Ye punch out but didn’t see the tracts of Li Ye’s Spiritual Qi. Purple clouds rose in the night sky and filled their vision. They suddenly felt the extreme danger. Before the Cloud-gathering Punch hit them, they only had time to cross their arms in front of their chests and open the shields of Spiritual Qi!
“Bang. Bang.” Before the oval shields of Spiritual Qi were fully formed, the two cultivators were covered with purple Spiritual tides.
When the Spiritual tides dissipated, the two cultivators disappeared in the air.
They turned into ashes because of Li Ye’s punch.
This punch shocked Li Keyong, and he was speechless.
Yelv Abaoji’s eyes brightened, as if he had seen a peerless beauty. His bright, sunny face was full of excitement.
This time, before he spoke, three Qidan cultivators flew up from the roof and the courtyard walls.
The three cultivators were all dressed in black robes and held brown scepters engraved with runes. At this moment, their robes were fluttering. As soon as they moved, explosive sounds exploded one after another around them, forming a path to heaven behind them.
The three cultivators were all in the Ground Immortal Realm!
At the track visible to the naked eye, the Spiritual Qi in the air converged toward them like whirlpools of the sea. In the blink of an eye, the scepters in their hands were as bright as the sun. In a flash, three light columns of Spiritual Qi with a diameter of dozens of feet shot out from the scepters and went straight to Li Ye!
The light columns of Spiritual Qi were so bright that Li Keyong couldn’t look directly at them with his naked eyes. That was the power of the Immortal Realm, and a mortal couldn’t look at it directly.
What made him frightened was that he felt that his vitality was greatly suppressed by the three light columns of Spiritual Qi, as if he was the grass burning under the sun and would wither in the next moment!
Then, he heard Li Ye’s voice.
An indifferent and contemptuous voice.
“How dare you attack me just with the cultivation of the Ground Immortal Realm! Are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?”
Li Keyong looked up in shock and saw three cyan light flashing under the stars. In an instant, his whole body was stiff on the spot, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
If he could only crane his neck to be killed by the three Qidan cultivators who were in the Ground Immortal Realm, then he wouldn’t have the courage to live when facing these three light.
That was Sword Qi.
There was Sword Awareness.
The domineering Sword Awareness contained the power of an emperor.
Like tofu, the three light columns of Spiritual Qi were cut and shattered by the Sword Qi. They dissipated immediately.
The three flying Qidan cultivators fell from the air like dumplings, as if they had hit a wall.
They bled all over their bodies, as if they had no bones.
As the three cultivators in the Immortal Realm fell to the ground, the Inspector General’s Manor became quiet.
No Qidan cultivators attacked rashly anymore.
They didn’t dare to do so.
Yelv Abaoji was trembling with excitement, and his face was red. He cried out, “Good, good, good! He is powerful enough to be my opponent. I’m happy to fight such a hero! There are really many outstanding people in the Tang Empire. No matter how chaotic the world is, there will always be powerful figures as bright as stars! Good. This is the fun part of the competitive world. This is the wonderful world that I want to see!”
Even though five powerful cultivators died in such a short time, he didn’t feel heartache or angry. He just felt happy.
In contrast, all the Qidan cultivators remained silent and became solemn. They felt the strength of their opponent. They knew that they might not be able to defeat him even if they spared no effort to fight, so they didn’t dare to be careless.
They didn’t give any response to Yelv Abaoji’s crazy behavior, as if they had been used to it.
Li Ye looked down at the crowd and saw them not moving. He sneered and said to Yelv Abaoji, “The grassland is vast enough for you to herd sheep. Isn’t it good to live in a land of plenty? Why rush to look for death in the Tang Empire?”
Yelv Abaoji didn’t mind and looked up at Li Ye. He clapped his hands and said with a smile, “Prince An, you’re right. There are many places with plenty of water and lush grass on the grassland, so we don’t have to worry about food and clothing. You should understand that if a man was born in this world and only asked for a luxurious life, he’s useless.”
Li Ye had no good impression of Yelv Abaoji. After all, Yelv Abaoji was a grassland hero who brought a lot of suffering to the people on the border of the Tang Empire. Li Ye inherited the Way of Emperor, so he didn’t like the foreign emperor who let his own people suffer.
He said indifferently, “So this is the reason why you’re making trouble?”
Yelv Abaoji answered earnestly, “Life will be boring if I don’t make trouble. Heroes are as many as seawater in such a big world. If I can’t fight them on the battlefield, my life will be less wonderful. Such as you, if I can’t fight a life-and-death fight against you, it will be a waste of my skills.”
Speaking of this, he looked pious again. “God gives us great power to rule the world and to write a legend that will be passed down from generation after generation, not to herd sheep or farm!”
“Good!” Li Ye didn’t refute Yelv Abaoji, nor did he want to. In all fairness, he thought what Yelv Abaoji said was a little reasonable. “Then, show me your power. Let me see how you can rule the world and write a legend!”
He threw down the gauntlet to Yelv Abaoji, indicating that he should take action.
But Yelv Abaoji didn’t intend to take action.
He smiled brightly. “I’m afraid that I will disappoint you today because we’re ready to retreat.”
Li Ye was a little stunned, but he didn’t say anything. He just looked at him calmly, as if he was waiting for him to expose his lie.
But Yelv Abaoji didn’t lie.
He had a round black bead the size of a goose egg in his hand. As the Spiritual Qi was injected into it, the round bead emitted a strong dazzling light. At first, he was wrapped up, and then, several wisps of light flew out and covered the other Qidan cultivators.
Li Keyong and Kang Junli were excluded.
Only at this time did Li Keyong realize that Yelv Abaoji was not joking and that he really wanted to leave!
Li Keyong’s mind was in a mess. “Is this guy a little out of his mind? How could he be so unpredictable?”
He quickly shouted, “You just said that you would join hands with me to deal with Li Ye. Are you really going to leave now?”
Yelv Abaoji remained smiling. He said in a righteous tone, “That was then. Prince An is far more powerful than we expected, so our original plan is no longer available. Even if we stay here, we can only defeat him at best, but we can’t kill him quickly. What’s more, his cultivators will be here soon... So, I’m sorry, my friend. Our alliance is void now.”
