Inside Shouan Hall.
The situation is tense.
Li Ziye and Tai Shang's verbal exchanges became increasingly fierce.
After all, the two are not on the same journey, and their ideals are irreconcilable.
In the hall, the two of them looked at each other and refused to give in. Even facing the sages of the Taoist sect, Li Ziye still refused to take a step back.
Behind him, Hibiscus clenched his hands and took half a step forward. At this moment, his eyes became firm.
If there was a fight, even if she died, she would protect Li Jiaoxi from leaving the palace.
The Li family can live without hibiscus, but it cannot live without the third son.
"It's fine."
In front of Mu Jin, Li Ziye felt something. He turned to look at the woman behind him and said with a gentle expression, "It's normal to have verbal stumbling when communicating ideas. They are all respectable people. They won't be like the people in the market who get into a fight if they disagree. of."
After hearing the former's words, Mu Jin took half a step back and looked at Tai Shang and Shang Huang in front of them, her eyes still full of vigilance.
"Little guy, if you had been born a thousand years earlier, I would have accepted you as my personal disciple and taught you everything."
Tai Shang looked at the boy from the Li family in front of him and said with a complicated expression, "What a pity, I don't have the time or the energy."
A thousand years ago, he would have admired this little guy who dared to challenge him head-on. Over the years, except for that boy Shaoyan, he had not met such an interesting junior for a long time.
"That's a shame."
Li Ziye said calmly, "If we can get an old man to teach us, the martial arts path of the younger generation will definitely be smoother."
"With eight meridians blocked, it's really not easy to get to where you are today."
Tai Shang's expression softened a little and he responded, "However, in your situation, I may not be able to do better than your master. Your master is a genius."
At this point, Taishang paused and asked, "Speaking of which, I haven't heard from your master for a long time. Where has she gone?"
"I am in retreat to break through the five realms."
Li Ziye replied, "I should be leaving seclusion in the near future."
Next to Tai Shang, Emperor Shang heard a flash of concentration in his eyes when he heard the former's answer.
Plum Blossom Sword Immortal is going to break through the five realms?
This is not good news.
"Winter is coming, and there is no one among the five realms in the world. Breaking through the realm at this time is both a good thing and a bad thing."
Tai Shang sighed softly and said, "Boy, whether you are willing to take on the responsibility of saving the world or not, the catastrophe of winter is something you must face. You cannot avoid it. It should be said that all living beings avoid this catastrophe." Don’t fall off.”
"It's my responsibility and I will never avoid it."
Li Ziye said seriously, "Similarly, it's not my responsibility, and I have no interest. Old man, life is long and there are many interesting things. There is no need to focus on such a boring thing as saving the world."
After hearing the words of the little guy in front of him, Taishang responded with a subtle smile on his old face, "I have lived for such a long time, and today, I was educated by a junior."
"Don't dare."
Li Ziye bowed his hands and said, "Just a small suggestion."
"His Majesty."
Just as the two were talking, a sharp voice suddenly sounded outside the palace, reporting, "Your Highness, the Fourth Highness, begs to see you."
"Let him in."
Emperor Shang heard the report from outside and responded.
In front of Mu Jin, the corners of Li Ziye's mouth were slightly curved, not feeling surprised at all by someone's arrival.
It's not a secret that he entered the palace. It's strange that Mu Bai doesn't come.
However, it seems to have come a little too quickly.
Soon, Mu Bai entered the palace alone. He looked at the four people in the palace. He was shocked and at the same time, he bowed respectfully and said, "I have met my father."
"No need to be polite."
Emperor Shang said calmly, "Why are you here?"
"I heard that my father summoned Li Jiaoxi. It just so happened that Li Jiaoxi and I hadn't seen each other for some days, so I came over to have a look." Mu Bai suppressed the turmoil in his heart and replied.
"Since we're here, let's chat for a while."
Emperor Shang looked at his legitimate son in front of him and asked, "Bai'er, how is your practice of the World-Suppressing Art going?"
"Seven moves are complete, eight moves are still unskilled, and ninth move, I still have no clue." Mu Bai answered truthfully.
"Li Jiaoxi, you and the Seventh Emperor Brother went north to kill the gods. You should have seen his World-Suppressing Technique. Do you have any suggestions?" Shang Huang turned his gaze and asked.
"No."
Li Ziye shook his head slightly and responded, "The martial arts talent of His Highness is far better than mine. If even Your Highness cannot master the martial arts, there is nothing I can do."
"In terms of martial arts talent, Wen Qing is definitely the strongest person I have encountered in the past thousand years. Unfortunately, he is born with shortcomings and lacks longevity. Otherwise, his achievements will not be inferior to anyone else."
Taishang looked at the two of them and said calmly, "However, in the martial arts, talent and achievement are not completely equal. As far as the Taoism of a thousand years ago is concerned, among the strong men who have broken through the five realms, there are many people with ordinary talents, at least , when I started practicing martial arts, I only had access to the seven meridians, not as good as Wen Qing and Bai'er."
At this point, Taishang sighed softly and said, "Forget it, you can go back."
When Li Ziye and Mu Bai heard this, they looked at each other, then saluted at the same time and said, "Retreat."
After saying that, the two of them turned around and walked out of the hall without any further delay.
Behind him, Hibiscus followed closely, never leaving.
After the three people left, Taishang glanced coldly at Emperor Shang beside him, then turned and left.
"Your Highness, thank you very much."
Outside the hall, Li Ziye spoke softly.
"You're welcome, Brother Li, it's about Miss Li."
Mu Bai opened his mouth and sighed, "Sorry."
"It has nothing to do with Your Highness."
Li Ziye responded, "I am very grateful that Your Highness can come today."
"Father and ancestor, didn't you embarrass Brother Li?" Mu Bai asked with concern.
"No, just asking a few questions."
Li Ziye shook his head and replied, "Your Highness, before Lao Bai's trouble is resolved, I will leave the palace first."
"good."
Mu Bai nodded and said, "If you need any help, you can send someone to my house to deliver a message."
"Um."
Li Ziye responded and immediately left with Hibiscus.
"It's such a close call. Fortunately, the Fourth Prince is here."
On the way out of the palace, Mu Jin said with some fear, "Otherwise, we might not be able to leave the palace so easily."
"Ginger is still hotter than old." Li Ziye sighed as he stared in the direction outside the palace.
Mujin was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
"Don't you think it's too much of a coincidence that the Fourth Highness came here?"
Li Ziye did not answer, but asked, "Everyone in the world knows that I have a good relationship with His Highness the Fourth. Not only did our Majesty not let anyone stop him in advance, but after His Highness arrived, he immediately let him enter the Shou'an Palace. Is it too much? Easier?"
"What do you mean?" Hibiscus asked puzzledly.
"Do you still remember what Emperor Shang asked Mu Bai?" Li Ziye reminded.
"The cultivation process of the World-Suppressing Art."
Hibiscus replied. Suddenly, her body shook and her face showed disbelief.
"They are all old foxes."
Li Ziye sighed, "The World-Suppressing Technique has been created for thousands of years, but only the prince has figured out the ninth form. They know very well that the prince must have kept the ninth form before his death, so the scene just happened."
Mu Bai, that fool, didn't even know he was being used as a pawn.
