In fact, Rabu had completely lost his momentum. Facing the powerful Li Yi, Rabu could only fight to trap beasts. After a few rounds, he was steadily suppressed by Li Yi again. And without being distracted from the enemy, Li Yi's offensive had no flaws, and he would definitely add a blood groove to Rabu within five moves.
Finally, there was another crisp sound, and Rabu's long sword was cut into two pieces by the magic weapon in Li Yi's hand. Since then, this bloody duel finally came to an end.
Rab looked blankly at the broken knife on the ground, and after a long time he clasped his fists and said to Li Yi, "The general is extremely capable. Our brothers are convinced of defeat. It is just a grudge against my brother. We will find an opportunity to repay him."
Li Yi looked at Rabu coldly and a cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "I am waiting for you to take revenge, as long as you have that ability. But you have a grudge, I, Li Yi, have no grudges with you."
"How do you say this?" Labu asked inexplicably when he heard Li Yi's words.
"That's it." Li Yi said coldly, then lightning flashed his sword.
A flash of blood flashed, and Rabu's raised right hand was cut off. Because Li Yi drew his sword quickly, when Rabu felt pain, his palm had fallen steadily on the stone slab. Rabu let out a heart-wrenching scream and fell straight to the ground.
Li Yi looked at Rabu who was screaming coldly and said ruthlessly: "Remember, you can hurt me. But you have to pay the price to hurt her."
Alice just saw Li Yi's unreasonable sword, and she had already frowned slightly. She couldn't understand why her opponent had already admitted defeat and Li Yi was still so bloodthirsty. But after hearing what Li Yi said to Rab, Alice felt unprecedentedly moved in her heart.
Li Yi turned around and looked at Alice behind him. The violent face just now disappeared without a trace. He smiled and said to Alice: "I can't protect you well, I can only avenge you like this."
Alice looked at Li Yi blankly, listening to his unreasonable explanation, the corner of her mouth cracked and showed a beautiful smile. However, pearl-like tears flowed out from her beautiful eyes. Regardless of the public, Alice crashed into Li Yi's arms and cried happily.
When Alice hit her, Li Yi's blood surged and almost vomited out a mouthful of blood. He pinched Alice's shoulder with a headache and said with a wry smile: "Why are you crying? Are you not satisfied with such revenge? Then I will kill them and vent your anger for you."
"Satisfied, satisfied, don't be too impulsive, this has already caused trouble." Alice heard Li Yi's words, hurriedly raised her tearful little face in Li Yi's arms and stopped her.
"Then why are you crying, stupid?" Li Yi praised Alice for another trembling and said with a smile.
"Haha, nothing, I was scared to tears." Alice was not angry after being thrust by Li Yi, and smiled and said perfunctorily, but Alice's eyes when she looked at Li Yi began to become extremely tender, but Li Yi's wood did not feel the change.
Li Yi and Alice were crying and laughing here, but some people were furious.
Margaret in the hall stood up angrily, and regardless of etiquette, he said to King Tianlan directly: "Your Majesty, Brother Rab has obviously admitted defeat, but you general still commits a crime. This is a bit unreasonable."
Hearing Margaret's words, King Tianlan nodded seriously, as if he could handle this matter strictly. But the old man himself was actually already happy and laughed in his heart: "Damn it, I'll tell you to be arrogant and don't show you the color. I really think our Tianlan Kingdom is a soft persimmon."
The king said to the second prince beside him with a blue face: "It's so rude to call the madman up to me. How can he treat foreign envoys like this?"
Prince Kevin was also relieved at this time and thought to himself that no matter what, he would save Li Yi. He came to the hall and brought Li Yi, who was covered in wounds, back to the hall.
"Your name is Li Yi?" the king asked coldly.
"Yes, your Majesty."
"Bold, you are so presumptuous. How could you act so cruelly? Do you not take the messengers seriously?"
Seeing the king's rage, Alice was afraid that Li Yi would be affected by the disaster because of her, so she immediately wanted to come out to help Li Yi take the blame. But Li Yi grabbed Alice, smiled at her, and then bowed to the king and said, "I know the crime and am willing to be punished."
"Well, I'm anxious to confess my guilt. But this will not relieve your guilt. How should I punish me?" As he said that, King Tianlan looked at the second prince next to him.
"Father, Li Yi is fighting for the country after all. Even if he takes action a little more severely, he should take it lightly because of his desire to serve the country." Prince Kevin said.
"How can such a crazy person be reborn? He must be punished, and he must be punished severely. Well... I will punish you for ten years of salary, which will make you poor for ten years. It depends on how crazy you will be in the future." After a little thought, King Tianlan actually gave such a "heavy punishment".
Hearing this, everyone present forced themselves to hold back their laughter. The king was obviously favoring Li Yi, and he pretended to be so angry before.
"The emperor's punishment is indeed heavy enough. This should be cured by this crazy person. See how he will be rampant in the future." Prince Kevin also held back his smile and said with a serious face.
Li Yi looked at the father and son singing together, and wanted to laugh, but in the end he still held back and said in pain: "I am willing to be punished. Your Majesty's health is important, so don't get angry because of me."
"You cut back to the side, Kevin and Guo Guoyu went to the palace to treat Li Yi's injuries."
"Yes, Father." Kevin said respectfully. Then he turned around and walked out of the hall, blinking naughtyly when he walked past Li Yi.
"Your Majesty, I'll say bravely, are you too partial to this General Li?" Margaret didn't have the good mood of the people in Tianlan Kingdom. She risked offending Shengwei, so she said.
"Margaret, isn't my punishment so severe enough? Are you suspicious of me?" King Tianlan said coldly.
"My subordinates dare not." Margaret said carefully.
"That's right, it's inevitable that you will be injured in the competition. Isn't Li Yi also injured all over? The two young heroes each gave one thousand gold coins, and they also allowed the national doctor to treat it."
"Yes, Your Majesty. I am worried about Rabu's injuries. I hope your Majesty will allow us to retreat. I will see if I can still get a broken hand for Rabu."
"Accurate, you all retreat."
Upon hearing this, the envoys of Wu'an Kingdom stood up and left with indignation. At that moment, only the officers of Tianlan Kingdom were among the palace.
"Li Yi." After everyone in Wu'an Kingdom left, King Tianlan suddenly called Li Yi's name.
"I'm here." Li Yi stood up from his seat at a loss, and the wound on his body had just been bandaged.
"You have won glory for your country. Although you have taken a little ruthless action, you are not losing the style of a great country. I have a clear reward and punishment. Now I will reward you with 100,000 gold coins and receive the title of viscount."
"Thank you for your reward."
"Well, nothing is wrong, let's all go," King Tianlan said lightly.
"I will leave." Seeing the king's words, everyone stood up and left.
"By the way, General Luo Ning and Li Yi stayed, and followed Kevin to my study later." After that, the king turned around and left.
"Li Yi, what can the king have to do with you?" Alice asked worriedly while standing beside Li Yi.
"Don't worry, if there is anything, I won't make things difficult for me anyway. Go back first, I may be able to go back later." Li Yi patted Alice's smooth forehead and said with a smile.
"Oh, go and come back early, you still have any injuries on your body." Alice said softly, like a young wife.
"Yes, OK." After saying that, Li Yi followed General Luo Ning and Prince Kevin who were smiling beside him and walked towards the inner courtyard of the palace.
After passing through the heavy city gates, Li Yi and his party walked for a long time before coming to the king's study.
"Second Your Highness, Your Majesty is already in the study. I will inform you if you need it." As soon as I walked to the door, a guard in golden helmet and golden armor came forward and said to Prince Kevin.
"No need to inform me, I'll just go in." After saying that, Prince Kevin took the lead and walked into the study.
When he walked to the door, General Luo Ning paused for a moment, patted the shoulder of the guard who had just spoken to Prince Kevin and said, "It's not bad, Tavi, he is already a golden armor guard."
"Thank you for your praise, I will never forget the general's cultivation grace." The golden armored guard said with a respectful look on his face.
"Haha, do it well and strive to become the commander of the guards. Let's fight for our Central Army." After that, General Luo Ning also followed Prince Kevin to the house.
"Remember the general's teachings." Tavy said respectfully.
Li Yi smiled kindly when passing by Tawei, and then followed the veteran general and walked into the study together.
The study of the King of Tianlan Kingdom is not particularly luxurious, and it does not seem very special except that it is a little bigger.
"Father, the veteran general and Li Yi have all arrived." Prince Kevin said softly when he walked to the desk.
General Luo Ning and Li Yi performed the rituals of the monarch and subjects behind Prince Kevin, and said respectfully: "Attend Your Majesty."
"Hurry and avoid the gifts, both generals don't have to be detained." The king finished speaking with a smile. At this time, he no longer had the majesty he was in the hall, just like a kind old man.
"Thank you, Your Majesty." After saying that, Li Yi and the other two stood up.
"Li Yi? Haha, I'm young and good at it. No wonder General Luo Ning arranged for you to join the Central Army when he came to the imperial capital."
"Thank you for your praise. Li Yi is just a trick."
"Don't be too modest. You can have the fourth level of strength at the age of twenty, which is rare in our Tianlan Empire."
Li Yi had long been accustomed to this kind of praise, so he just smiled slightly at this time, and accepted the king's praise.
"It's just that I'm too violent and my personality is easy to attract jealousy. Although I've done something a bit too much today, I won't blame me anymore after all, I've won't blame me anymore. I'll pay more attention in the future. It's best to keep some hands when starting."
Li Yi learned the tone of the golden armored guard when he was just at the door and bowed and said, "Remember your Majesty's teachings."
The king nodded with satisfaction, and then said to General Luo Ning: "General, do you have any opinions on the occurrence of the Magic Crystal Mine in Wu'anguo this time?"
"Your Majesty also knows how important the Magic Crystal Mine is to expand its military equipment, so we must keep this mine vein no matter what. Although Wu'anguo was a bit offensive this time, it was also for self-protection. From the perspective of interests, it would be a great thing to get all of this mine vein. However, if Wu'anguo borders the Sai Empire, if we send troops rashly, it will inevitably cause their fierce resistance, and the whole country may even seek asylum to the Sai Empire. Therefore, the old minister believes that we should send heavy troops to garrison the mine vein, and everything is to guard the mine vein."
"What the general said is very much, but when I think of Wu'an, a small country that wants to divide 0% of it, I feel a pain."
"Your Majesty, it's better to be careful. According to border spies, the undercurrents in Sai State have been surging recently, and it seems that it is also vague to move towards this mine vein. If we start a war at this time, it will only benefit the fisherman of Sai State."
"Oh, okay, I'm still a little greedy. So, the general thinks how many troops we need to send to Wu'an Country to ensure the integrity of the ore veins."
"It should not be too many, and the troops in each defense zone should not be mobilized. The Central Army also has the position of guarding the imperial capital to guard against some people with hearts." When talking about "people with hearts", General Luo Ning deliberately increased his voice. When he heard this, the king seemed to understand the general's code, nodded slightly and said, "Well, continue."
"So, we can only draw one team from the Central Army, and then after we arrive in Wu'anguo, we can draw two teams from the Southern Legion to assist in defense, so that the safety of the ore veins can be ensured."
"That's all. I hope Sai won't act rashly. So, which team will the general want to send from the Central Army to station the Magic Crystal Mine?"
"The old minister wants the Second Knights of the Central Army to guard the mine veins. What does your Majesty mean?"
"Everything is based on the general's arrangement. I am not good at the army. I just don't know which general is in command of the Second Knights."
"Haha, the leader of the Second Knights is Li Yi." General Luo Ning said with a smile.
"Oh? If this is true, then I'm relieved. If General Li Yi leads his army to guard the army, there will be more guarantees."
"Your Majesty is loved by you. Li Yi is just a martial artist, and he is afraid of delaying His Majesty's major affairs." Li Yi said from the side.
"It's okay, this mission will be the same as anyone who wants to go to this mission. The higher the martial arts skills, the more you can add to the guarantee. You don't have to shirk it." Before the king could speak, Luo Ning said from the side.
"In this way, Li Yi can only do his best, and hopefully he will not disappoint His Majesty."
"Just do what you can. If there is any change in reality, it is difficult to preserve the magic crystal mine, so you don't have to force yourself to protect it. It's important to save your life."
"Yes, your Majesty."
"Okay, if you have injuries, you don't have to stay here for too long. Go back and recuperate, and wait a few days before you can come out with the envoy who protects Wu'anguo."
"Thank you for your concern, that I have surrendered." After saying that, Li Yi bowed to General Luo Ning again and then pushed out the king's study.
After Li Yi retreated, King Tianlan was silent for a while before slowly speaking: "General Luo Ning, what is the origin of this Li Yi?"
"Your Majesty, Li Yi was born in my Lily of the Valley Academy. A few days ago, I came to the imperial capital to join me with the letter of recommendation from Dean Gal. I have not investigated the specific origin."
