Needless to say, Li Cunxiao's strength is great. Although he is also at the Golden Immortal level, the combat power he bursts out is also at the peak of the Profound Immortal level. Even if he cannot defeat Long Junhai, at least he will not suffer a crushing defeat.
Luo Shixin is a special case. He can be said to be the strongest in the Tang Dynasty and the most senior founding general. However, his temperament is difficult to control. It is already very good if he does not rebel. He also has some problems with his intelligence and his performance is not very stable. Everything depends on his mood. When he is in a good mood, he can move mountains, fill the sea and capture the sun and the moon. When he is in a bad mood, you have to kneel down and beg him. He will not take action for others. In short, he is not a reliable fighting force, so Emperor Xuanzong of Tang never used him as his trump card.
Luo Shixin's combat capability should actually be at the Saint Daozu level, but he has been sleeping all these years and has not made any effort to make progress, so his realm is still at the peak of the Xuanxian realm. But even so, no one dares to say that they are stronger than him, not even Li Cunxiao.
Li Cunxiao has great potential, but he is still too young. If he is given another 10,000 years to improve his strength, it should not be a problem for him to surpass Luo Shixin. After all, Luo Shixin has not practiced for tens of thousands of years, and it is a miracle that his strength has not declined.
A moment later, Luo Shixin and Li Cunxiao both came in front of Emperor Xuanzong of Tang. Seeing the two of them coming together, Emperor Xuanzong finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Commander Luo, Cunxiao, you two are finally here. It has been many days since we last met, and you two are still as vigorous as ever!" Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said with a smile.
"Xiao Ji, is there anything you want to talk to your Grandpa Luo about?" Luo Shixin asked cheerfully.
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanzong of Tang smiled awkwardly. If someone else called him like that, he would definitely order that person to be dragged out of the Meridian Gate and beheaded. Even a group of founding generals such as Qin Qiong would not dare to be so presumptuous. However, Luo Shixin was an exception. When the other party called him like that, he had to agree happily and did not dare to turn hostile.
"Commander-in-chief, it's like this. General Long will come to see me soon. He is a very powerful man. You are all powerful generals of the Tang Dynasty. You can learn from each other." Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said with a smile.
"Huh? Who dares to compete with me? Aren't you afraid that I will twist his head off?" Luo Shixin hasn't met an opponent for a long time. Ever since Emperor Taizong brought Li Yuanba into the realm of gods, the Tang Dynasty has not been able to find anyone who can fight against him.
"Haha, this General Long is no ordinary one. At the beginning, a group of masters including Cunxiao, Yuwen Chengdu, Li Bai and Du Fu joined forces but failed to subdue him. In the end, I had to personally recruit him and made him submit to the Tang Dynasty. So, this person should not be much weaker than the commander-in-chief." Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said deliberately provocatively.
"Okay, I'll compete with him this time to see if this guy is really as powerful as you said!" Luo Shixin said happily.
"Brother, is this General Long you are talking about the guy named Long Junhai? This guy is very cunning. I originally wanted to fight with him, but he let a group of ferocious beasts fight me. It's so hateful! I must teach him a good lesson this time!" Li Cunxiao also said from the side.
Tang Xuanzong pursed his lips and smiled, then said: "You must be careful with this person. Although he is also a Golden Immortal, his strength is not weaker than yours, and he is very cunning. If you lose, wouldn't it be very embarrassing?"
"I definitely won't lose! This time I will definitely beat that guy until his face is covered in bruises!" Li Cunxiao roared loudly.
At this moment, Long Junhai had already arrived at the Golden Palace. Before he came in, he heard Emperor Xuanzong of Tang deliberately provoking trouble. However, he didn't care. He came here to discuss things, not to fight.
"Your Majesty, General Shenlong comes to see you!" Gao Lishi said from the side.
"Announce." Emperor Xuanzong of Tang waved his hand and said.
"Announce General Shenlong to enter the palace..."
After a group of eunuchs cheered loudly, Long Junhai came before Emperor Xuanzong of Tang under the guidance of a young eunuch.
Long Junhai bowed slightly and had no intention of kneeling. Emperor Xuanzong of Tang also knew that it was impossible to ask Long Junhai to kneel down to him. In fact, all the civil and military officials in the court, as long as they reached the Xuanxian realm, would not kneel down to him. When he met some powerful saints and Taoist ancestors, he would kneel down to others.
"Xiao Ji, is this guy the General Long you mentioned? Did you make a mistake? This person is just a Golden Immortal. At most, his strength is the same as Li Cunxiao, right? This kind of person can't even withstand a punch from me!" Luo Shixin asked with a smile.
Long Junhai was stunned when he heard this. He hadn't expected the other party to call Tang Xuanzong Xiaoji! What a bizarre name! However, Tang Xuanzong didn't seem to get angry. Instead, he seemed unconcerned. This meant that this person was definitely a master. Otherwise, Tang Xuanzong wouldn't be so obedient. So he had to be more careful.
"General Long, let me introduce you. This is General Luo Shixin, who is usually hard to find. This is my brother Li Cunxiao. You should have met him before." Emperor Xuanzong of Tang said with a smile.
Long Junhai suddenly realized that it was no wonder that this big man was so arrogant. It turned out to be Luo Shixin! You know, Luo Shixin and Li Yuanba are masters of the same level, and Li Yuanba is said to have reached the peak of the Holy Dao Ancestor and entered the God Realm. Although Luo Shixin didn't know why he didn't enter the God Realm, he should not be underestimated.
"My name is Long Junhai, nice to meet Commander Luo and General Li." Long Junhai smiled and greeted them.
"General Long, do you dare to compete with me alone? Let's fight for three hundred rounds! There will definitely be a winner!" Li Cunxiao said excitedly.
Long Junhai waved his hand and said with a smile, "Let's talk about it another day. My purpose today is to discuss economic issues with the emperor."
"Huh? Discuss it with me?" Emperor Xuanzong of Tang was obviously stunned. He didn't expect Long Junhai to say that. This made him a little surprised. He didn't know what the other party was up to.
At this time, Long Junhai smiled and explained, "Your Majesty, I want to open a bank, which requires a large amount of capital. The largest source of funds in the entire Tang Dynasty is of course the Tang Dynasty Treasury. Therefore, as long as Your Majesty is willing to lend me the money from the treasury, you can get half of the dividends from me every year."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Xuanzong frowned and said in a cold voice, "Who do you think I am? Why do you think I would lend you money from the national treasury? And you even asked me to share half of the profits? You are so arrogant! No one in the entire Tang Empire dares to speak to me like that!"
Long Junhai knew this was the other party's reaction, but he didn't get angry. He still smiled and explained, "It's like this. I will bear the risk of the bank. Your Majesty only needs to invest and share the dividends. If there is no profit, you will not lose a cent."
