Great commercial capital.

Late autumn has not yet passed, and the first snow has fallen.

Winter, as expected, arrived early.

The Northern Border, Western Region, Mobei Iron Cavalry, and Tianyu armies all retreated, preparing to survive the cold winter.

In the inner courtyard of Li Garden, sword shadows were flying. As usual, Li Ziye had been practicing his sword all day long.

In front of the porch, Xiao Xiao was there, watching the light snow falling from the sky, with the word boredom written all over her face.

About an hour later, Li Ziye stopped, took a deep breath, looked at the woman in front of the porch, and asked, "Xiao Xiao, why have I never seen you practice kung fu?"

"I don't like to practice."

Xiao Xiao sat there dragging his chin and said, "Anyway, with the blood of Qinglong, you can enter the fifth realm with just some practice."

"If there are conditions, it means being willful!"

Hearing this, Li Ziye didn't know what to say anymore, so he stretched out his thumb and gave the girl in front of him a thumbs up.

He worked very hard every day, either practicing his sword or running around looking for opportunities for himself. In the end, he was not as good as others who practiced casually.

Who should I talk to?

"Brother Li, why don't you eat the dragon balls?" Xiao Xiao seemed to have remembered something and asked.

"Wait a few days."

Li Ziye replied, "Now is not the time."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Xiao asked confused.

"The treasures of nature, materials and earth are so precious. How can we just eat them? It's such a waste."

Li Ziye smiled and said, "I am not a prodigal."

"Brother Li, who would believe what you say?"

Xiao Xiao pouted and didn't ask any more questions. He changed the subject and said, "Brother Li, I will go back in a few days."

"What are you doing in such a hurry?"

Li Ziye stepped forward and asked doubtfully, "Is there anything important you need to do when you go back?"

"That's not true."

Xiao Xiao looked at the snowflakes in the sky and replied, "I have been out for a long time. I can't go back forever. After all, I am also a saint of Qinglong Sect, so I still have to pay attention to the impact."

"Oh."

Li Ziye smiled softly and said, "Why do these words sound so different from what you said?"

"hey-hey."

Xiao Xiao stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and said, "Actually, I don't want to leave, but the two elders who came with me are starting to get a little anxious. If I don't go back, they will take me back by force."

"I almost forgot about them."

Li Ziye thought of the two people Xiao Xiao mentioned when he came, and reminded him, "It's okay, just say I won't give you the exercises, you are thinking of a way."

"Yes."

When Xiao Xiao heard this, his eyes lit up and he said, "Why didn't I think of that?"

"Xiao Ziye."

While the two were chatting, Hongzhu walked quickly outside the inner courtyard and said solemnly, "King Rakshasa and King Triumphant have returned to the city."

Li Ziye turned around, looked at Hongzhu's expression, and asked, "What happened?"

"The situation with King Rakshasa is not quite right."

Hongzhu said seriously, "You'd better go and see for yourself, they have just entered the city."

Li Ziye heard Hongzhu's reminder and immediately walked outside.

"Brother Li, wait for me, I'll go too."

When Xiao Xiao saw this, he quickly got up and trotted to follow him.

The two of them left the mansion together and rushed towards the west city gate.

"Brother Li, are the Rakshasa King and Plum Blossom Sword Fairy really always at odds?"

On the way, Xiao Xiao asked in confusion.

"This is how it is said in the world."

Li Ziye responded with a hint of truth in his words.

The smart Xiao Xiao immediately understood the meaning of the words and said, "What about Brother Li's three unique swords?"

"Master Fairy does not know the Three Ultimate Swords." Li Ziye said.

"I see."

Xiao Xiao understood this in his heart, no wonder the Plum Blossom Sword Immortal has never used the Three Ultimate Swords.

While the two were talking, the King of Triumph, Tao Yaoyao, arrived from the direction of the west city gate with his troops. The soldiers had returned from the western border, thousands of miles away, and had not even had time to remove their armor.

On both sides of the street, the people lined the streets to welcome them. They were filled with gratitude from the bottom of their hearts to these King Wu and his soldiers who fought bloody battles for the great merchants.

Li Ziye and Xiao Xiao stopped behind the crowd, looked towards the end of the street, and waited anxiously.

Everyone was watching. At the end of the street, the sound of horse hooves sounded, flags fluttered, and soldiers passed by one after another.

On the horseback, everyone's face showed unconcealable fatigue. After two consecutive years of war, both the soldiers in the north and the west were exhausted.

However.

The most eye-catching thing is the beautiful figure in front of the team.

As the only woman among the great Shang Wu kings, although Tao Yaoyao is known as Rakshasa, no one can deny Tao Yaoyao's beauty and unparalleled elegance.

But, that is a thing of the past.

Now, everything has changed.

In the shocked eyes of the people of Dashang, the beautiful figure in front of the officers and soldiers of Dashang, most of her green hair has turned gray, and the beauty is late, which is shocking.

"How could this be?"

Behind the crowd, Li Ziye clenched his hands tightly when he saw this scene, and his heart was uncontrollably shocked.

It shouldn't be so fast.

"Brother Li."

On the side, Xiao Xiao also noticed the clear and palpable death energy on the Rakshasa King in front of him, and said in disbelief, "Her lifespan is less than a month!"

On the war horse, Tao Yaoyao noticed the gazes of the two men, but ignored them and rode away.

Half an hour later, in front of Dashang Palace.

The triumphant king, Tao Yaoyao, dismounted, handed over his weapons, and immediately entered the palace together.

Shouan Hall.

The two people came and saluted respectfully, "Greetings to Your Majesty."

In the palace, Emperor Shang was shocked when he saw the two of them, especially the Rakshasa King whose appearance changed drastically. He stepped forward to help the two of them and said, "You two haven't taken off your armor yet, so there's no need to be polite."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The two stood up and responded respectfully.

"How is the situation in the west?" Emperor Shang asked with concern.

"Tianyu Palace will not send out any more troops until the weather gets warmer."

The King of Triumph said sternly, "After these two wars, more than 70% of the silver-armored cavalry of Tianyu Palace have been damaged. It will be difficult to recover in a short period of time."

"Thank you for your hard work, two Martial Kings."

Emperor Shang sighed with emotion, "You two have been running around for many days, and you must be tired. Go back and rest early. I will discuss your merits and reward you in the morning tomorrow morning."

"His Majesty."

On the side, Tao Yaoyao looked at the Shang Emperor in front of him and suddenly said, "I want to resign from the position of King Wu."

When Emperor Shang heard this, his expression condensed and he said, "King Rakshasa, what did you say?"

"Your Majesty, I say that I want to resign as King Wu."

Tao Yaoyao said calmly, "My time is running out. In this life, I have been fighting for the Great Shang. In the last few days, I want to do what I want to do."

"King Rakshasa, if you have any health problems, I can send the best doctor to treat you with the best magic medicine, but please don't mention the matter of resigning as king again," Emperor Shang said seriously.

"Your Majesty, please do it!"

Tao Yaoyao said nothing more, bowed and saluted again.

Emperor Shang looked at the Rakshasa King in front of him who had made up his mind to leave. His expression changed again and again, and he said in a deep voice, "What should I do with the Rakshasa Army?"
