Chapter 481 Uninvited Guest
Chenzhou, Longcheng, Laifu Inn in the Tang Dynasty.
In a high-end guest room on the third floor, two young males, who seemed to be of similar age, stood facing each other several meters apart.
"Actually, I don't think there is any need for us to be so indifferent and restrained. After all, what flows in our bodies is the same bloodline." Li Xiaoran looked around casually, and then smiled at Li Yang and said.
Li Yang did not say anything, but pulled a seat and sat down like this, squinted his eyes and looked at the other person. If someone familiar with Li Yang would know that whenever Li Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, it was the murderous intent in his heart that appeared.
Although Li Xiaoran did not understand Li Yang, he could also guess what Li Yang was thinking at this time.
"Indeed, you did have a reason to kill me some time ago. After all, with the place where you and me were intersecting at that time, you really couldn't have the leisure to chat with me. As long as I appeared, I would definitely be marked as an enemy by you." Li Xiaoran also learned from Li Yang and sat down, then smiled and said.
"I am not interested in this. I just want to know how you survived and how accurately I found where I am." Li Yang smiled coldly and said in a cold voice.
Li Xiaoran showed a sudden expression on his face, closed the paper fan and gently tapped his forehead, and said apologetically: "This is something that I have been neglected by my brother. I should explain everything to Emperor Li Yang as soon as possible."
Li Yang curled his lips secretly, but he was concerned about such trivial matters about names.
"I believe that the Emperor Li Yang should also know that the CCP in the Tang Dynasty is divided into twelve states, and the lords of each state are the lords of the Holy Spirit. Relying on the power of the Holy Spirit, the power is extraordinary." Li Xiaoran saw the expression Li Yang had just shown, but there was no change on the surface, and he still smiled like this.
"Can your Highness the Great Prince be the lord of a certain state? This is how you rely on your peak strength at the imperial level to escape my killing attack?" Li Yang's lips curled slightly and he said disdainfully.
"Your brother Li Yang is really smart. You can guess tenth of them!" Li Xiaoran looked surprised and stood up and shouted softly.
Li Yang frowned and thought to himself that he was hypocritical, but he had to admit that this behavior was not as artificial as Li Xiaoran. If he threw it on earth, the position of the actor would definitely be as relaxed and comfortable as taking something out of his pocket.
"It is said that it is to make the emperor laugh. In the Tang Dynasty, other state lords are all peak king beast warriors. Only if you are not talented, you are just the emperor's strength. This strength is definitely not taken seriously by the emperor. If it were normal, Brother Wei should have died in the beast prison just now. However, in my Tang Dynasty, there is such a rule, and it is this rule that I lucky to save my brother Wei's life. Hahaha." Li Xiaoran laughed heartily, as if he was very happy to be able to save his life. However, this move was revealed in front of Li Yang, the murderer, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
"The rules of the Tang Dynasty?" Li Yang's eyes flashed slightly, but his mouth remained motionless. He knew in his heart that since this person had chased him here and had to be plotting against him, he must have made some plans. Since this conversation has been opened, he will naturally not close it easily. Even if he doesn't ask, he will definitely say it out.
Seeing that Li Yang was just watching coldly, but there was no intention of getting up with him. Even with Li Xiaoran's cunning, he didn't show any resentment. However, this person was really a powerful character who could be sung in a single-man show. In just an instant, he returned to normal and continued to speak on his own.
"Emperor Li Yang has never been a Tang Dynasty for many years, so some of the rules in the royal family are naturally unclear. Therefore, this kind of secret is naturally not a secret to the true core senior management of the royal family, but it is impossible to know for others." Li Xiaoran seemed to be unwilling to give up and tried every means to tease Li Yang's curiosity, but it was another silence. Seeing that the atmosphere that finally had a "slight improvement" tended to be cold again, Li Xiaoran didn't care about continuing to lure Li Yang to talk to him, and had to open the answer directly.
After a secret smile, Li Xiaoran said, "Although Brother Wei is not talented, he is also known as the eldest prince. Moreover, the father has not yet established a crown prince, and Brother Wei is temporarily considered the first candidate for the crown prince. However, as the future lord of the Tang Dynasty, the crown prince naturally needs to control the Holy Spirit of Chenlong. However, the Holy Spirit of Chenlong is much stronger than other holy spirits. Therefore, after the strength of the crown prince in all dynasties, they will first be sent to Siser State as the state lord, and they will be familiar with the mystery of the Holy Spirit in the years and months when controlling the Holy Spirit of the Serpent, so as to lay a solid foundation for controlling the Holy Spirit of Chenlong in the future."
"Snake Holy Spirit?" Li Yang's expression of motion finally changed a little. Seeing him speak, "I wonder if His Highness the Great Prince can give the Snake Holy Spirit the next view?"
Seeing that Li Yang finally spoke, Li Xiaoran couldn't help but look happy, but then he turned into a dilemma.
Li Yang, the name of the Twelve Holy Spirits, naturally understood the importance of it to the Tang Dynasty royal family. After saying this, Li Yang never expected that the other party would really agree to him, but just wanted to make things difficult for the other party.
"Since you can pretend, I will let you pretend to see when you can last!" Seeing this scene, Li Yang couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
This time, Li Xiaoran became silent. After a few minutes, he raised his head and looked at Li Yang again.
"Forget it, the emperor's brother is not an outsider anyway, and his talent is far superior to his brother. Even if he handed over the Snake Holy Spirit to the emperor, it would only benefit but not harm for the Tang Dynasty." At this moment, the indifferent smile on Li Xiaoran's face had long disappeared. After staring at Li Yang for a moment, the former seemed to have made up his mind and slowly spread his right palm out.
This scene made Li Yang a little surprised. He didn't expect that Li Xiaoran would really agree to his unreasonable request. Are he really so stupid to facilitate convenience and dare to believe in his brother, the emperor who had just killed him once not long ago?
Or... apart from believing in yourself, the other party has no second choice?
Li Yang turned his head silently, but his eyes never left the other party's spreading palm.
Li Xiaoran closed his eyes slightly, and then a small piece of hand-sized thing slowly floated out of his palm.
Li Yang looked at the scene intently and found that it was a small snake statue curled into a formation. It looked like it was neither gold nor jade, and I didn't know what material it was. Li Yang looked at the small snake statue for a moment, but he didn't see anything strange. Could it be that this was one of the twelve holy spirits in the legend? Li Yang looked at Li Xiaoran with a puzzled look.
"Your brother, don't doubt it, that's right, this is the Snake Holy Spirit among the twelve Holy Spirits." Then Li Xiaoran gritted his teeth secretly, and gently threw the object towards Li Yang with a smile on his face.
Li Yang took it casually, feeling the warm and smooth touch in his palm, and couldn't help but look down again.
"If the emperor still doesn't believe it, you can drop blood on it, and then sink your soul power into it to make him recognize his master. In this way, you will know that you are sincere in your brother!" Li Xiaoran said slowly to Li Yang with an extremely sincere expression.
Li Yang was really surprised when he heard this, but he did not immediately recognize the Lord as Li Xiaoran said. It is not necessary to say how precious the twelve Holy Spirits are, and Li Xiaoran would throw this great benefit to himself so casually? Is this too unbelievable?
As soon as he thought of this, Li Yang calmed down. His personality was a bit complicated. To put it nicely, he was cautious, and to put it badly, he was suspicious. But with this kind of personality, he would ignore it after being impulsive.
"These twelve holy spirits can actually recognize their masters at will? Wouldn't anyone forcefully occupy them as long as they kill the former state lord? In this way, the super strong men in the entire Tang Dynasty have not been completely confused?" Li Yang asked tentatively.
Li Xiaoran shook his head and smiled bitterly: "After that being said, all the existences of the Lord of One State are the peak powerhouses among the King Beast Warriors. They are extremely powerful themselves. After obtaining the twelve Holy Spirits, they are even more powerful and have almost reached the strength level of the sub-saints. It can be said that except for the Saint-level strong men, even if they are powerful men, they are impossible to defeat them. Moreover, all the state masters cherish their holy spirits as their lives, and they are always kept in their bodies. Other strong men have no chance to contact them at all. Unless... they take the initiative to hand over them like brothers."
When Li Xiaoran spoke, Li Yang always gently covered his soul power over the other person's body. At this moment, Li Xiaoran did not have the Snake Holy Spirit, and his soul level was far inferior to Li Yang, so he naturally could not detect Li Yang's actions.
Judging by Li Xiaoran's soul fluctuations just now and some subtle changes in his body, Li Yang is already 80% sure that what he said just now is true.
"Aren't you afraid that I will not return you after I accept him?" Li Yang's eyes flashed slightly, and he was already a little moved, but he, who has always been cautious, was still conducting the final test.
"Since you have given this thing to you, I have no expectation that you will return it to you. If you are willing to give up, you will gain. If you give up, you will gain. If you believe that your vision will not be wrong, if you accept this benefit, you will never have the idea of harming me again. In this way, we brothers will have a real reason to continue to have a peaceful conversation. And once you lose the Snake Holy Spirit, Wei brother will no longer pose any threat to the Emperor, and I will no longer have any room for struggle to kill or slaughter me. Under the premise of holding such a big picture, I believe that Brother Li Yang will not continue to be wary of Brother Wei as the frontline."
Li Xiaoran's face was quite helpless, and after a few wry smiles, he shook his head and said.
"You have tried so hard, what do you want me to help you?" Li Yang said after silently staring at Li Xiaoran for a long time.
This Li Xiaoran actually threw such a huge bargaining chip in order to win him over. This scene made Li Yang confused.
"Why didn't the emperor's brother recognize the Snake Holy Spirit first, and then listen to Brother Wei's thoughts on you to slowly reveal the details. In this way, it would prove that Brother Wei's sincerity is definitely not false." Seeing that Li Yang had not really accepted his own benefits, Li Xiaoran was obviously a little worried, so he continued to persuade him.
After hearing this, Li Yang subconsciously looked at the small snake statue in his palm again. Since he had confirmed that everything the other party said was true, Li Yang had no scruples anymore. Moreover, Li Yang was indeed very curious about the twelve holy spirits in the legend, so he did not refuse at this moment, and was preparing to start recognizing his master in the way Li Xiaoran said just now.
After holding the statue's little snake in his palm, Li Yang completely let go of his mind, he felt a moment of loss of consciousness when he looked at his eyes. The small black eyes were extremely agile, just like a real living thing.
This is the first time Li Yang has seen such a strange statue.
"The emperor is really a cautious person. Unlike those reckless geniuses who have fallen on the road of cultivation, it seems that it is not a coincidence that the emperor can achieve such success now. But brothers can rest assured that if they recognize their masters from other holy spirits, they will naturally be able to accept a test. However, this snake holy spirit is different. Because they have been recognized by the princes of the Tang Dynasty for countless years, they are already extremely familiar with the bloodline of the Tang Dynasty. As long as the emperor drops a drop of essence and blood on it and lets him confirm your identity, everything will be no longer difficult. Haha, but if other foreign races want to recognize this thing, it will be thousands of times more difficult. The power of the holy spirit's backlash is not a joke. Even the peak king beast warrior has no hope of survival."
Seeing that the task was about to be completed, Li Xiaoran felt much more relaxed, but at this moment he smiled and started chatting with Li Yang.
However, as soon as his unintentional words were said, Li Yang was shocked and sweating. While Li Yang remained calm, he was secretly glad in his heart. Thanks to his repeated delays, otherwise he might have really completely capsized in this small gutter.
Li Yang put his fingers to his mouth, looking like he was about to bite them, but after this movement solidified for a moment, Li Yang sighed softly, but took his fingers back.
However, when Li Yang looked at Li Xiaoran again, his expression had obviously softened a lot. He raised his hand gently and Li Yang threw the little snake statue back to the other party again.
Li Xiaoran obviously did not expect this scene. After a while, he was so busy that he could barely hold the statue in his palm, and then looked at Li Yang with confusion. He was obviously completely confused by Li Yang, and he didn't know what the other party's move was intended.
"Brother Li Yang, are you?" Li Xiaoran's eyes went back and forth with the statue in his hand several times before he asked a question in confusion.
"I, Li Yang, are not an inhumane person. Brother, you treat me so sincerely, how can I bear to take away such precious things as you? Even if you need Li Yang's help, you can show it. However, I, Li Yang, cannot accept this treasure." Li Yang looked righteous and stared at the other party's eyes. After throwing the statue back, he really didn't look at it again.
It has to be said that Li Yang's acting skills are even better than the eldest prince. At least in Li Xiaoran's quite excited gaze at the moment, he could see some of it.
Holding the small snake statue in both hands, Li Xiaoran trembled slightly. This feeling of worrying about gains and losses really stimulated it. However, although the treasure that was as heavy as life was returned to his hands again, the feeling of worrying about gains and losses in Li Xiaoran's heart could not help but quickly emerged.
Li Yang did not accept this item, and all his previous layouts had lost all their effect in an instant.
"Oh--" After sighing heavily, Li Xiaoran silently took the little snake statue back into his body again, then collapsed on the chair, silently starting.
"Brother, why don't you tell me what to do? Although I, Li Yang, dare not say that I am talented, I have been living outside for so many years, which is quite insightful. Maybe I can give you an idea?" Li Yang smiled and looked caring. In fact, he was extremely impatient in his heart, and he wanted to leave here immediately, and then he quickly left the Tang Dynasty. As for the other party who wanted to find him to help him, he had to find it.
It has to be admitted that after this change, Li Yang's murderous intent has faded a lot. If he had not forced himself, he would not want to kill this crown prince, which caused the Tang Dynasty royal family to be completely angry. If so, even if he hides back to the western continent, he will probably not be able to escape the pursuit of the royal family's saint-level powerful men. At that time, Li Yang would not have time to talk about recruiting soldiers and creating forces. A new round of pursuit and abscond will undoubtedly be staged again. Li Yang has really lived enough of that kind of life.
Li Xiaoran sat there in a look of anger, no longer had the calm temperament of planning and strategizing before, and never said a piece of excuse for a long time.
At this time, Li Yang also became silent, as if he was infected by the other party. But in fact, Li Yang was silently planning in his heart how to leave the Tang Dynasty after this position left.
"Brother, do you know why your father is so eager to return to the palace?" Li Xiaoran suddenly looked up and said.
Li Yang was slightly stunned and subconsciously shook his head.
He shook his head with a wry smile, and Li Xiaoran said, "That's true. Brother, you are away all year round, how can you know? In fact, the time for the father... is not much."
After hearing this, Li Yang's face changed slightly, as if he had heard of a very ordinary childhood. Li Xiaoran did not show any surprise or anger when he saw this.
Although Li Xiaoran always called Li Yang the emperor's brother and called him the father when he mentioned the Emperor of Tang Dynasty. In fact, this is not the case. Li Yang has his own son, that is, Li Ran, the head of the Li family.
