The fifth volume is full of awe and martial arts legends Chapter 269 Sweeping the Jianghu
On the Yellow River waterway, large ships stand in rows and many powerful people gather.
Until dusk, everyone suddenly saw a figure walking back towards the evening breeze from the end of the sky.
Not only the Yellow River waterway, but now the two major waterways of the Yellow River and the Yangtze River are full of troops from the Tianxia Alliance. Once Li Muchan fails to return, or his life or death is unknown, everyone will immediately rise up in rebellion.
South of the Yellow River, the tens of thousands of rebel troops who had approached Luoyang that day were confronting the troops of the Tianxia Alliance, with swords pointed at each other. Each of them had a solemn expression, like an arrow on a bowstring, ready to be released, but no one dared to move rashly.
Until they saw Li Muchan coming back, both sides almost cried out in relief.
Li Muchan's return alive means that they can all escape unscathed.
Not only Li Muchan, but Yang Zheng also flew over from the other end and was already arranging his troops, and also brought the news of retreat.
From then on, Li Muchan became the dominant figure in the world.
Tan Wushuang is dead, Bai Yujing was defeated, and these two died in the capital, so unexpectedly.
Many experts on the ship who heard the news were also in a trance.
Li Muchan looked around at everyone and raised an eyebrow. "Why do you all look like that? I put so much effort into it and nearly died in the capital."
Murong Qiudi bowed and smiled brightly, "I always feel like we haven't contributed anything, haven't done anything, and we just... hehe... followed the young master to unify the martial arts world."
"That's right!" Jin Laoqi echoed, his hands on his hips and laughing, amazed. "We were still discussing what to do if a fight really broke out, but we didn't expect that the young master would dare to break into the capital alone and even kill that eunuch Liu."
Long Xiaoyun said: "You are too impulsive."
Xie Longteng said in a deep voice: "How strong is that person?"
A group of people were talking to each other, with different expressions.
And after a brief moment of surprise, of course, there was ecstasy.
No one likes bloodshed and sacrifice. Li Muchan killed the enemy with a single blow, saving a lot of trouble.
Everyone couldn't help but think of the Jinqian Gang of the past. When Shangguan Jinhong rose to power, he defeated "Tianji Old Man" Sun Baifa, the best in the world. Since then, he has been invincible and dominated the world. And when the Jinqian Gang collapsed, it was also Li Xunhuan who defeated Shangguan Jinhong.
What is the general trend, what is the ambition, the winner is king and the loser is a bandit, victory or defeat, life or death, sometimes it seems as difficult as climbing to the sky, and sometimes it seems as easy as a bubble, blown away by the wind, and gone in a flash.
"How can you say you didn't do anything? It's because of you that I have such confidence. Now that I, as the boss, have done my part, gathering forces from all sides and sweeping across the Central Plains martial arts world, it's your turn to take action." Li Muchan's eyes swept over the faces, some familiar, some unfamiliar, and he said softly, "From now on, in the Central Plains martial arts world, only the Tianxia Alliance remains."
Everyone calmed down after hearing the words and looked at Li Muchan who had changed his clothes. No one had ever thought that the humble little man who had struggled to survive between several forces would become the unparalleled King of Jiuzhou today.
Everyone looked at each other at the same time, and said respectfully, "Greetings, Grand Alliance Leader!"
Li Muchan stood with his arms folded in his sleeves, glanced at the retreating troops, and said softly, "Get ready to move."
Just a few words, but they seem to have an indescribable weight.
A group of people had been eager to try it out for a long time, and they dispersed immediately after hearing the news.
The boss has already eliminated the powerful enemy for them and made them invincible. Of course, they have to do the rest themselves.
After a long while, Yan Shisan suddenly appeared from nowhere and asked curiously, "Is it over like this?"
Li Muchan shook his head. "This doesn't mean it's the end. On the contrary, it's just the beginning. After all, getting a seat might not be difficult, but holding on to it is difficult."
Today, the Tianxia Alliance is the only dominant force, commanding the world. There is nowhere to hide and nowhere to avoid, and those enemy forces have taken the opportunity to go from open to covert. Although some have been defeated, some will still rise. The real danger has just begun.
But what is different from the past is that this world of martial arts will be completely controlled by him, Li Muchan.
"Will those people in the temple agree?" Yan Shisan asked.
Li Muchan glanced towards the north with interest and said softly, "How could that be possible? With those clan elders around, even the emperor might not have the final say. Sooner or later, a clash will break out. But for now, even if they have many ideas, they can only watch, endure, and suffer, suffocating and lying dormant, watching me rise to prominence and turn the tide."
Yan Shisan was stunned when he heard this, but he quickly understood.
These people may be waiting for Li Muchan to reveal a flaw, but the flaw sometimes does not come from himself.
Li Muchan looked at the turbulent waves below the boat and said softly, "Shangguan Xiaoxian is pregnant."
After a pause, he added, "I plan to marry her and choose a date for the wedding. What do you think?"
Yan Shisan now understood better and said with deep emotion, "It seems that there has never been a truly invincible person in this world."
Compared to peerless martial arts, human hearts are the hardest to guard against and the most dangerous.
Yan Shisan said in a strange tone: "Then why don't you go and guard it quickly."
Li Muchan sighed, "I'll go right away."
※※※
Luoyang, Baihualin.
Inside the bamboo house, Shangguan Xiaoxian was staring blankly at the candle flame dancing in the wind.
She looked out the window again. Outside the window stood two graves, one new and one old, among the flowers.
One of them is Lin Xianer's grave, and the other is Jing Wuming's.
In fact, there are many more such tombs outside Luoyang City these days.
Even though Shangguan Xiaoxian was accustomed to death and witnessed many intrigues, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw the many graves that seemed to have appeared out of thin air overnight, and a hint of fatigue appeared in his eyes.
Shangguan Xian'er was also in the room and said calmly, "It seems you are tired."
Shangguan Xiaoxian sighed, "Who wouldn't be tired?"
Shangguan Xian'er smiled strangely, "Yes, I'm pregnant, so of course I'll be tired."
Shangguan Xiaoxian did not refute, but was silent for a moment, then hesitated and said, "What is the purpose of a person's life?"
Many people spend their entire lives searching for the answer to this question.
Is it a battle between right and wrong, or a confrontation between good and evil?
The same is true for Shangguan Xiaoxian.
At the beginning of all this, thinking back carefully, she still remembered that her first thought seemed to be just to survive. But after surviving, she gave rise to an indomitable ambition, vying for power and profit. Under the relentless pressure of her enemies, she vowed to rise up, to break away from the norm, to go against those who believed they were right, and to dominate the martial arts world.
When she had nothing, she never cared about the world's eyes or other people's opinions. She only lived for herself, lived freely and comfortably, and laughed at everyone.
But now that she has everything, she feels very empty, especially the death of Jing Wuming, which makes her sigh at the fragility of life.
She inexplicably felt tired of the fighting in the martial arts world.
"Oh my, the leader of the Money Gang actually asked such a stupid question. It's really laughable. They say the most effective way to make a woman stupid is to make her fall in love with a man. It's really true," Shangguan Xian'er said decisively, "Then let's get married."
Shangguan Xiaoxian was stunned. "What?"
Shangguan Xian'er rolled her eyes, lying on her side on a soft couch, twisting her waist and saying unhappily, "Humph, some people even keep muttering the name Li Muchan in their dreams. What else could it be? They think about her to death every day, but they just refuse to admit it."
Shangguan Xiaoxian's pretty face turned red, then suddenly turned cold, and she glared at the other person fiercely.
Ever since the two of them experienced the battle in Luoyang, their relationship seemed to have eased, and Shangguan Xian'er began to speak more recklessly.
Mother Liu was also there, with her head lowered and eyes cast down, she whispered in a mosquito-like voice, "Second Miss is right."
Shangguan Xian'er's body shook with laughter, tears welling in her eyes. "Thinking of us two sisters, we've been through a rough life, adrift since childhood, hated by everyone and the devil. Now that you've finally found the one you love, I can't bear to see you do anything foolish. Are you going to end up like that woman, with a lifelong regret? You're my only sister."
Shangguan Xiaoxian's face was originally cold, but after hearing these words and seeing the tears in Shangguan Xian'er's eyes, her heart softened and her eyes became moist.
Suddenly, a voice was heard outside the bamboo hut.
"Oh, why are you crying?"
