When the dark clouds dispersed, the world instantly returned to clarity, and the shocking scene that had just unfolded instilled fear in everyone…
Master Xuantian vanished immediately. He was a reclusive master who disliked showing his face, but Li Zhu, that show-off, was different. How could he possibly let go of such an opportunity to shine?
He felt the worship from the people of Xiliang. Although he appeared last, his appearance led to a decisive victory. Ordinary people couldn't tell who had actually contributed. They only saw a golden dragon fly out of Li Zhu's body as soon as he appeared, and he also summoned a giant cauldron as large as a mountain. It was as if a god had descended to earth...
"I am Li Zhu, the Crown Prince of the New Tang Dynasty. I bring you the glory of God. Those who believe in me will have eternal life!"
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, his subordinates were stunned. They all realized that their crown prince had the potential to be a charlatan, which was completely contrary to their understanding...
However, the people and soldiers of Xiliang were different. The fear brought by the demon god made them think they had encountered the end of the world, and they died here...
But Li Zhu saved them at the crucial moment with a magnificent display, becoming their savior. At this point, Li Zhu resorted to his charlatanry tricks, completely fooling the soldiers and civilians of Xiliang...
Tuoba Xiong looked at Li Zhu, who was floating in mid-air, and really wanted to pull him down...
I thought to myself, "If you're a god, then what am I? Should Xiliang listen to you or me from now on?"
"Nazha, why aren't you letting him down..."
Tuoba Xiong roared at his daughter!
"Father, he is the Crown Prince of the new Tang Dynasty, and I am the Princess of Xiliang. How can I command him?"
Naza really didn't want to talk to her father; she had just tried to seize his military power...
"Li Zhu, the Crown Prince of the New Tang Dynasty? Isn't that our princess's husband? My God, he's our consort..."
"Really? That's wonderful! God bless Xiliang..."
"So it's the prince consort! I will write a eulogy for him and offer it eternal worship..."
"The prince consort said that those who believe in him will have eternal life, so I will go back now and have a golden statue made for him..."
The crowd discussed Li Zhu amongst themselves, their impressions of him completely changing. No one considered him a good-for-nothing anymore. If anyone were to jump out and humiliate Li Zhu now, the Xiliang people would probably crush him without the New Tang soldiers even lifting a finger…
Li Zhu was very satisfied with the reaction of the Xiliang army and people. Gaining the approval of the common people was the true foundation of his power. He refused to believe that with their support, he couldn't make a breakthrough in Xiliang…
Just as Tuoba Xiong was about to go berserk, Li Zhu finally slowly returned to the ground...
Tuoba Xiong rushed up to him, ready to reprimand him, but Li Zhu didn't give him a chance to speak, and spoke first.
“My beloved child of God, I never expected you to be so devout. You are the first believer to approach God’s messenger. God has already sensed your devotion, but please don’t get too excited. Look at you, you can’t even speak. Will any kind soul take this devout believer home?”
Upon hearing Li Zhu's words, many people were once again in an uproar. They hadn't expected that even their own Khan had such faith in Li Zhu, so they should have even more faith in him...
Suddenly, various prayers rang out, causing Tuoba Xiong's face to darken further...
"General Dada, what are you doing here? It's wonderful to see you again..."
Li Zhu handed Tuoba Xiong's hand, then turned to Tuoba Dada, not giving Tuoba Xiong a chance to speak at all...
Just as Tuoba Dada was about to say something, Li Zhu turned to look at Nazha and said...
"My dearest princess, you are still so beautiful. Your kindness has opened my heart. You are truly the most beautiful and kindest princess in the world. No words of praise can adequately express even a fraction of your beauty. Oh... my dearest princess..."
If someone were to dub Li Zhu's voice, they would probably quickly realize that it just feels like dubbing a Western play...
"Cough cough..."
Nazha signaled to him that it was okay. When Li Zhu turned to her, she knew he was doing it on purpose, wanting to give his future father-in-law a hard time…
Li Zhu, holding Nazha's hand, continued in a distinctive tone...
"Oh...my dear princess...I wonder where my future father-in-law is? I wish to meet this wise elder..."
Naza rolled her eyes at him, then pointed at Tuoba Xiong and said...
"This is my father..."
Upon hearing Nazha's words, Li Zhu even said in a very cheeky tone...
"Are you talking about this devout believer?"
"Li Zhu, do you want my father to kneel before you?"
Naza gritted her teeth and scolded him in a low voice, which immediately made Li Zhu's expression turn serious. He even stopped calling her "Brother Zhu," clearly indicating that he was angry...
"Li Zhu, the Crown Prince of the New Tang Dynasty, greets the Khan..."
Li Zhu put away his joking expression and looked at Tuoba Xiong seriously, saying!
"Hmph! Is the Crown Prince of the New Tang Dynasty such a person who has no manners?"
Having finally gotten a chance to speak, Tuoba Xiong gritted his teeth and asked angrily!
"Why do you say such things, Khan? Have I ever hit you? Have I ever cursed you?"
Li Zhu asked with a puzzled look, and before Tuoba Xiong could reply, Li Zhu continued speaking to himself.
“I have never beaten or scolded the Khan; I have always treated him with courtesy. I also promptly defended Xiliang from enemy invasion. If you don’t thank me, fine, but why are you targeting me?”
These words made Tuoba Xiong's face darken even more. This ability to turn the tables was truly impressive. If it weren't for you and me, would Xiliang have encountered such an enemy?
"The Khan is a wise man; I believe he wouldn't do something that would hurt his friends and please his enemies. Why don't we go to the royal court and talk..."
Li Zhu also cut off Tuoba Xiong's next words, fearing that the other party might say something detrimental to him...
Tuoba Xiong, still somewhat dazed, was pulled back indoors by Li Zhu, and the group took their seats according to their status as guests and hosts…
However, neither of them spoke immediately after sitting down, creating a very tense atmosphere...
Originally, Tuoba Xiong wanted to seize Li Zhu's 100,000-strong army while he was unconscious, but now that Li Zhu had woken up, he felt guilty and didn't know how to start the conversation...
Li Zhu, on the other hand, felt guilty for having just won over the public and was hesitant to speak up immediately because he felt a sense of guilt about stealing someone's home.
Naza, being in the middle, didn't know how to start the conversation...
The group remained silent for a long time until someone came in to report the losses. Only then did Tuoba Xiong realize that Xiliang had suffered heavy losses because of Li Zhu, so his gaze towards Li Zhu carried a clear threat…
"Anda, our warriors report that they have captured a Miao man and extracted a crucial clue from him..."
As he spoke, Tuoba Dada placed a piece of leather in front of Tuoba Xiong…
