Chapter 230 [The Unforgivable Qingcheng King]

Mount Qingcheng is covered with lush forests and looks like a green castle, hence the name "Mount Qingcheng".

The mountains are rolling and the forests are lush and green.

The scenery here is indeed beautiful.

"This is the gateway to Beiliang. It is extremely important to both Beiliang and Liyang. It is the key to mutual defense."

Li Chengqian looked at the terrain in front of him and guessed in his heart that with Xu Xiao's cleverness, he would definitely make a layout for Qingcheng Mountain.

Similarly, the smart people in the Liyang Dynasty will not miss this crucial place.

If Beiliang wants to rebel, it must seize this gateway.

This gateway is crucial if Li Yang wants to break through Bei Liang's defenses.

One man can guard the gate, but ten thousand men cannot open it.

Therefore, the most appropriate approach is to drive a nail here and stare at Beiliang.

Therefore, the selection of the King of Qingcheng must be cautious, and he must have a grudge against Beiliang.

Only by leaving Yang can you feel at ease.

The carriage drove to a nearby village or town for a rest, and then headed to Qingcheng Mountain tomorrow.

When I arrived here, I found that there were few girls nearby.

Even if someone had a child, they would all hide, and there would be no sound of children playing and fighting from anywhere else.

Chunmei was very attentive and noticed this phenomenon at the first moment.

"It's weird..."

The autumn wind blows down leaves and the weather is cool. Although the people in the villages and towns have a hard life, the hospitality is quite warm.

The house was a bit simple and half of the roof was blown away by the wind.

Li Chengqian looked at the houses and yards in front of him and sighed in his heart at how difficult people's lives were.

The host was an elderly couple, who were quite old, busy and warm in their hospitality.

"Go and fix the old man's roof."

"Okay!" The old man from the border probably would never have thought that after living for more than 500 years and being a great master in the celestial realm, he would one day actually repair people's roofs.

"Thank you, thank you very much."

The old couple was very grateful.

Seeing the hunchbacked old man moving around, he immediately realized that this group of people were not simple people, and immediately killed the old hen that he had kept at home for laying eggs.

Chunmei saw it all and before leaving, she left ten taels of silver for the old man and placed it on the kang.

Everyone was eating in the yard when they saw a few Taoists coming outside.

He was dressed elegantly, in a Taoist robe and carrying a long sword. One could tell at first glance that he was a man who often traveled around the world.

When I came across this farmer's house, I came in to ask for some water to drink.

Li Chengqian was gnawing on a chicken leg when he saw the old couple. The way they looked at the two Taoists was so intense that they could almost spit fire.

Is there a grudge?

While they were thinking, the two Taoists walked straight towards them.

One of them was a bit older, and his lower body was stable and firm when he walked. He must have practiced some physical training.

He looked at Chunmei and nodded with satisfaction, "Miss, we are from Qingcheng Mountain and would like to invite you to visit us. Would you do me the honor?"

This vulgar and idiotic plot made Li Chengqian stunned for a moment.

Even the old man from the frontier and Zhao Xuansu paused slightly in their eating movements.

Perhaps they have never seen such an arrogant person.

It was an invitation, but the tone was threatening.

Moreover, it is rare to see someone do this in broad daylight and with such boldness.

Everyone knows that the world is dangerous and it is better to be low-key.

Without extraordinary abilities, who would dare to be so arrogant?

Also, do you know who that woman is?
Zhao Xuansu lowered her head and ate without saying a word. I didn't dare to provoke her. You still want to snatch her away? You really don't know how to write the word death.

What is even more curious is, where do these Taoists get such confidence?

"Don't promise them."

The old couple became anxious and hurriedly reminded them out of good intentions.

"They didn't invite me to be a guest, but, but..."

The old couple choked up as they spoke. "Old man, I advise you to stop meddling in other people's business!"

The two Taoists glanced at the old couple and dared not say anything more.

Dare to be angry but dare not speak.

"Don't worry, old man. It's okay. Tell me, do you know them?"

Chunmei walked over to the old couple and comforted them, telling them not to be afraid.

“They were sent by the old immortal on Mount Qingcheng, and they specialize in kidnapping young women nearby for the old immortal’s cultivation.

Poor my young granddaughter and daughter-in-law...

My son resisted and was beaten to death by them.”

When talking about sad things, the two old people cried bitterly and were heartbroken.

Hearing this, Zhao Xuansu stopped eating, glanced at Chunmei's expression, and whispered to Li Chengqian:

"Sir, I have also heard about this matter. It seems that the King of Qingcheng needs to absorb Yin to replenish Yang because of his special cultivation method, so..."

The old man from the frontier put down his chopsticks and said, "In such a bright and clear world, how can this person be so bold?

You actually sent your disciples to rob people so openly?"

Zhao Xuansu laughed, "All the towns nearby are the territory of King Qingcheng. He is the absolute king with the power of life and death. Who dares to resist?"

The gentleness on Chunmei's face disappeared at this moment, and was replaced by endless coldness.

"I advise you to be more sensible and not..."

Before the two Taoists could finish their words, they had already turned into ice sculptures.

The next moment, it shattered and turned into ice chips on the ground.

“Don’t worry, my young master is not a good person, but he cannot stand people who are worse than him, so he will definitely take care of this matter.

I'll eat your old hens as a token of my gratitude.

My condolences to you, old man."

After Chunmei finished speaking, she found that the two elders had already knelt down in front of her, and she helped them up.

"Thank you, sir, for avenging our poor son's family!"

The two elders walked up to Li Chengqian and were about to kneel down.

But he found that he couldn't kneel down, and he believed even more that this group of people were truly immortals.

“Old man, I’ve made a good living. I’m not a good person, but I don’t allow others to be worse than me.

I'm in charge of this matter.

You two elders can rest assured that from now on, there will no longer be a Qingcheng King in Qingcheng Mountain."

After dinner, the old couple waved goodbye to the few people.

"This King of Qingcheng was arranged by His Majesty to guard Beiliang. If we take action, I'm afraid Beiliang will benefit." The old man from the border analyzed.

"Beiliang?" Li Chengqian laughed and said nothing more.

Now that their positions are different, he and Beiliang are destined to be enemies.

However, they will certainly not be allowed to benefit from it.

This King of Qingcheng is indeed worse than a beast. In just a few decades, he has harmed tens of thousands of women.

Such garbage, why keep it?

Although he came here for Hu Kui, he didn't mind taking the opportunity to eradicate this cancer.

Li Chengqian vaguely remembered that in the original novel "The Snow Girl", the King of Qingcheng was indeed an absolute scumbag and a beast.

They also kidnapped Xu Fengnian's people, extracted their yin and yang, and drained them dry until they died.

The Liyang Dynasty had seven vassal kings, each guarding a region.

Zhao Yi, Prince of Guangling, Zhao Bing, Prince of Yanchi, Zhao Heng, Prince of Jing'an, Zhao Ying, Prince of Huainan, Zhao Sui, Prince of Jiaodong, and Zhao Ao, Prince of Langya were vassal princes of the Liyang royal family.

Only Xu Xiao was named King of Beiliang because of his great contributions.

In fact, in addition to Xu Xiao, there is another king of a different surname in Liyang, the King of Qingcheng, Wu Lingsu.

Wu Lingsu is a king of a different surname who is not worthy of his title and is just a puppet of Beiliang.

Wu Lingsu in the TV series was obviously whitewashed. He became Xu Xiao's secret agent, helping Beiliang to keep an eye on the capital, and his bad reputation was deliberately spread.

In the book, Wu Lingsu is an out-and-out devil.
