"Guan? Martial Saint?"

Ao Xin was surprised: "If I'm not mistaken, the Martial Saint you're talking about is Guan Yu, the famous general from the late Han Dynasty?"

Although Guan Yu was regarded as a representative of fierce generals during the Northern and Southern Dynasties, for example, when the famous Southern Chen general Xiao Mohe attacked the Northern Qi, his commander said to him: "You have the names of Guan and Zhang, so you can kill Yan Liang."

However, it was during the Song Dynasty that Guan Yu was actually bestowed with a large-scale title, becoming the "King of Yiyong Wu'an".

The Ming Dynasty reached its peak. Not only did he replace Jiang Ziya as the Martial Saint, he was also canonized as a god, namely, [The Great Emperor Who Conquers the Demons of the Three Realms, and the Heavenly Lord with Divine Might]!

Why did Princess Zhaoyang call him the Martial Saint?

But think about the crescent-shaped sword that shouldn't have appeared in the princess's hand, and the Tang Dynasty that is completely different from what he remembered except for the similarity of the names.

He could understand this strange situation.

The princess did not explain directly, but glanced at the flames in the sky:

"You won't let your men come down?"

Ao Xin smiled and said, "No, they are shy."

Princess:......

I don't believe you!

But he did not blame me for this. Instead, he said, "You are very cautious. I understand. This is a good thing."

"You must be wondering why Guan Yu is called the Martial Saint. In fact, what I have seen of the late Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms is completely different from what you have read in history books."

"I guess you come from a later era than mine. By that time, my Tang Dynasty might have already ceased to exist. The Tang Dynasty in your history books is completely different from what you see here, right?"

Ao Xin nodded, and Ao Chen and others on Yanyun also pricked up their ears and listened carefully to the conversation below.

"Indeed, what I have read in history books is that the Tang Dynasty was full of martial virtues, the Heavenly Khan's power was so great that all nations came to pay tribute. It was the reign of Zhenguan that created a prosperous era. The powerful Han and prosperous Tang dynasties have been the pride of China for thousands of years!"

Hearing Ao Xin praising the Tang Dynasty, a smile appeared on the princess' pale face.

She looked at the ruined military city and slowly sat back on the throne in the center of the city.

"Heavenly Khan, who is it? My father? Or my elder brother?"

Ao Xin shook his head and said, "Neither of them. It's your second brother, Li Shimin."

Hearing this answer, the princess was stunned again. She said to herself, "Shimin, that's not bad either. Shimin is the best in both civil and military affairs."

Suddenly he realized, "Now that Shimin has ascended the throne, do you dare to address His Majesty by his name?"

Before Ao Xin could express her opinion, she laughed at herself again, "After the Great Silence, all living things were extinct. Even in your time and space, the dynasty would have changed. Besides, I'm just a dead person, so why should I care about these things?"

Ao Xin had already clenched the steel whip in his hand, he was really nervous because of her startled behavior.

"Do not be nervous."

The princess raised her head, trying to appear gentle, and said:

"I know you have many questions, but I don't have much time. Let me tell you, maybe the scourge of corpse demons can end in your time."

Seeing how serious she was, Ao Xin nodded solemnly.

I feel like I am approaching some secrets of the origin of the world.

The princess said slowly:

"In the tenth year of the Sui Dynasty, Emperor Yang's expedition to Korea was defeated. The bodies of the numerous dead soldiers triggered an unprecedented plague. Those dead men unexpectedly stood up again and became demons that bit anyone they saw!"

"The corpse demon's body contains corpse poison. Anyone bitten by it will be infected with the corpse poison and transformed into that corpse demon."

"At the same time, floods, droughts, and locust plagues across the country created massive corpses, which gradually became corpse demons."

"At that time, people were in a state of panic, and powerful people in various places built fortresses to defend themselves."

"Of course, the Longxi Li family is also among them."

"It was around the time the corpse demons appeared that someone discovered a type of energy that could be harnessed. With this power, living beings embarked on the path of cultivation."

"Breaking the shackles of mortal flesh makes it seem as if moving mountains, filling the sea, and reaching for the stars and the moon are no problem at all."

"But the world is also getting bigger, and the soil and rocks are becoming harder. It's not easy to really break the mountains."

"In the first year of Yining, black vortexes appeared in all places where living beings gathered. At that time, I led my troops to station here. In order to investigate the situation within the vortex, as the Princess of the Tang King, I personally led the troops into it."

"This world is also plagued by corpse demons, but there are not many people left in the world."

"I met a woman in Yizhou. She was Guan Yu's daughter. This Liuyun Yanyue sword was given to me by her."

"At the same time, I also learned some of the truth about that world from her."

At this point, she looked up at Ao Xin and said, "You should have heard of the name Zhang Jiao."

"The Yellow Turban Rebellion, of course I've heard of it."

Ao Xin said that this common sense is too basic.

The princess nodded. "The Yellow Turban Rebellion you're familiar with was probably the rebellion of the three Zhang Jue brothers, who recruited followers under the name of the Taiping Dao. After a traitor leaked their secrets, they hastily launched the rebellion, only to be suppressed by Huangfu Song, Zhu Jun, and others."

Ao Xin nodded. This was the history he was familiar with.

The princess said:

"But what I learned from the daughter of the Guan family is that Zhang Jiao built an altar of destruction before his death and summoned the corpse demon to the world!"

"Millions of Yellow Turban rebels instantly transformed into corpse demons, spreading their demonic energy throughout the world!"

"During the chaotic late Han Dynasty, coupled with drought and locust plagues, the fields were filled with bones, and countless corpses were left exposed on the streets. Under the influence of demonic energy, these corpses all transformed into corpse demons, wreaking havoc on the world!"

"It's exactly the same as what we encountered during the Daye era!"

"I saw the broken Azure Dragon Crescent Blade. That's the Yizhou Pass, where the Guan family's daughter is holding fast."

At this point, she suddenly sighed, "Perhaps, it's just like me guarding this pass."

"But she has also reached the end of her life, because they have discovered an ancient secret technique that can destroy this space and time."

"But their understanding of the secret technique was incorrect, and they were not completely wiped out. As a result, some corpse demons and humans still survive in the world."

"Later, my second brother also came here with his army from the Qin Palace. He had outstanding talents under his command and finally figured out the correct use of the secret technique."

"At this time, a black vortex capable of exiting had already appeared. After we left, Guan's daughter and the others triggered another annihilation."

"With the numerous magical weapons and secret techniques they obtained from that world, they were able to stabilize the situation, reclaim most of the territory, eliminate all the corpse demons within, and establish a stable state capital."

"We thought that we would eventually have the ability to completely destroy the corpse demon."

A look of emotion appeared on her face.

"However, when my father transferred me to the southern battlefield, I was attacked by a large number of corpse demon kings along the way, and I died in that battle."

"But I was not assimilated into a corpse demon."

She looked down at the sword in her hand: "It is thanks to this Flowing Cloud and Crescent Blade that I can die in battle and be buried peacefully."
