Xu Fengnian is the reincarnation of the True Martial Emperor, he's much stronger than Lu Zu!
At this moment, Xu Fengnian became even more determined to play the fool, biding his time and waiting until he awakened his cultivation before seeking revenge on Li Chang'an.
His eyes flickered, and he suddenly saw Li Chang'an seem to give him a cold smile, followed by Li Chang'an's words.
"What belongs to the past life belongs to the past life, and what belongs to this life belongs to this life."
"The immortals return to heaven, while matters on earth are settled among mortals."
"Since you've already been reincarnated, why bring up the entanglements of the past? Let each life be a separate world!"
"Xu Zhihu has already agreed to marry me, Hong Xixiang. If you want to take her away, then leave your life behind!"
Hong Xixiang possesses the aura of a Daoist sect, which Li Chang'an has no intention of letting go of.
At this moment, Hong Xixiang's true energy suddenly erupted, "Red Robe!"
"If you are being forced by Li Chang'an, I will kill him right now and then send him ascension as a gift!"
Although he had not yet reached the level of a terrestrial immortal, Hong Xixiang was very confident in his cultivation, after all, he was the reincarnation of Lu Zu!
His gaze was warm and gentle, and his tone was somewhat urgent. With just one word from Xu Zhihu, he could send her to immortality.
Before Xu Zhihu could answer, Li Chang'an's voice came first.
"No wonder he's a reincarnation of a god, deciding the life and death of others at will. He's really willful."
"The woman in red has been reincarnated many times. The current Xu Zhihu is no longer the woman in red. Your obsession with reincarnating to find the woman in red is nothing but self-deception."
"You are so engrossed in your own deep affection that the woman in red has already started over many lifetimes."
Upon hearing these words, Hong Xixiang's inner energy suddenly fluctuated. "Nonsense!"
However, he felt a little heavy-hearted. He could cultivate to the level of an Earth Immortal and awaken his memories of his past life.
However, the woman in red has been a mortal in every life, and has now reincarnated countless times. How could she possibly remember what happened back then?
"Red Robe, if you're willing, I'll immediately help you ascend to immortality!"
All eyes were once again focused on the figure in red standing at the entrance of the Prince's Mansion.
Xu Zhihu lowered her eyes, her delicate brows furrowed, and then she parted her red lips slightly, giving an answer that surprised everyone.
"The Tang King is right. What does an ancient person who died more than seven hundred years ago have to do with me, Xu Zhihu?"
"I do not want to!"
Hong Xixiang was struck dumb, standing there in a daze, as if he could hear the sound of his own Dao heart shattering.
"why why……"
"Could it be... just so she can marry Li Chang'an?"
Xu Zhihu's reply was devoid of any emotion: "Who I marry is none of your business."
"I just don't want to be manipulated by others anymore!"
Chapter 238 Hong Xixiang's army is dispelled! He gains great fortune once again!
Xu Zhihu was not familiar with Hong Xixiang to begin with; they had only met once when he was fourteen, and had no contact with each other since.
Now this Hong Xixiang suddenly appears, claiming to be her lover from more than ten lifetimes ago. Xu Zhihu finds it laughable. She has been reincarnated more than ten times, so does that mean her lover from each of her past lives has to come looking for her?
In any case, although Xu Zhihu has been very depressed for the past six months, Xu Zhihu is still Xu Zhihu and has nothing to do with the woman in red from seven hundred years ago.
This simple answer astonished Hong Xixiang and puzzled the group of martial arts figures in the Northern Liang Royal Palace, who thus gave up their chance to ascend to immortality.
In fact, Xu Zhihu simply didn't want his fate to be arranged by others anymore, that's all.
However, her answer quickly led the people of the Northern Liang Prince's Mansion to a guess, a guess similar to that of Hong Xixiang.
Did Xu Zhihu really give up her chance to ascend to immortality in order to marry Li Chang'an?
A smile flickered across Li Chang'an's lips. Xu Zhihu was indeed afraid of being manipulated and was now unwilling to be arranged by a stranger for no reason.
Compared to Hong Xixiang, Xu Zhihu was even more familiar with Li Chang'an.
Hong Xixiang felt a tightness in his chest, and his expression changed rapidly. He, the reincarnation of the dignified Lu Zu, had actually been rejected.
Li Chungang sighed, "Although he is the reincarnation of a great being, his Dao heart is now almost shattered."
"He once vowed not to leave the mountain until he became the best in the world. Now he has left the mountain, but he has not become the best in the world."
"Furthermore, given his flawed mental state, I fear he will never be able to regain his cultivation as a terrestrial immortal in this lifetime."
Li Chungang, as expected of a top figure in the martial arts world, saw through Hong Xixiang's problem at a glance. Moreover, having accidentally killed his lover, he was most empathetic to such matters.
At this moment, Hong Xixiang felt desolate and extremely unwilling.
If Xu Zhihu hadn't gone through the series of events following his arranged marriage, he might have been much simpler, and perhaps he would have agreed to ascend to the celestial realm.
"Xu Xiao, Li Chang'an, Zhao Chun, it's you who turned the red dress into this!"
A hint of madness appeared in Hong Xixiang's eyes, and his voice was low and angry.
At this moment, Li Chang'an stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Hong Xixiang with a cold gaze.
"When Lü Zu was reincarnated into the human world, he experienced many things against his will. You blame others indiscriminately. With such a mindset, how can you become the greatest in the world?"
Hong Xixiang slowly turned his head, his fierce eyes fixed on Li Chang'an, as if his domineering aura had been challenged.
"If I kill you, at least the woman in red will gain her freedom!"
"Even if she doesn't ascend to the immortal realm, I will not allow her to marry you."
Li Chang'an seemed not to hear Hong Xixiang's words and said to himself, "Even though he is the reincarnation of Lu Zu, they still want to be his lapdogs. They are really disgracing Lu Zu."
"Li Chang'an, what are you saying!"
Hong Xixiang was furious!
He thought that by revealing his identity as the reincarnation of Lü Zu, who in this world would dare to offend him?
Even if Xu Zhihu doesn't agree to ascend, shouldn't Li Chang'an take the initiative to give up on Xu Zhihu and grant her freedom?
"Don't even mention Hong Xixiang, even if Lu Zu came, I wouldn't be afraid!"
Hong Xixiang suddenly burst into laughter, regaining his carefree and bold demeanor, "I was mistaken!"
"Someone as ambitious as you, who is also engaged to the woman in red, should not be allowed to remain in this world!"
Li Chang'an just gave a cold laugh; he knew this would be the outcome.
How could an invincible figure like Lü Zu reincarnated as a human tolerate his lover's reincarnation marrying someone else? Even if Hong Xixiang didn't realize it at first, he would eventually come to his senses.
If Li Chang'an had backed down and canceled the engagement with Xu Zhihu, Hong Xixiang might have let him go.
However, Li Chang'an would not do that.
He doesn't like to bow down to people casually, let alone a sycophant.
Hong Xixiang stopped replying, and the Lu Zu Sword suddenly flew out from his back.
Immediately afterwards, the sky was filled with countless sword shadows of true energy, thousands upon thousands of sword intents, all pointing towards Li Chang'an.
"Li Chang'an, kowtow to your grandfather Lu Zu, grant the red-clothed woman her freedom, and this matter will be considered closed."
Li Chang'an stood opposite Hong Xixiang and said, "It's too late. Even if you kill yourself in front of me, this matter won't be over."
"This damn world is already chaotic enough, it's time to clean up all of you messy reincarnations."
As soon as he finished speaking, sword energy shot out from Hong Xixiang's body, filling the entire lake with a sharp sword intent.
If Hong Xixiang could recover Lu Zu's peak strength, he would reach the Great Longevity Realm of Heaven and Man, a fusion of the three religions. However, Hong Xixiang broke his vow, and it is likely that he will not be able to reach such a high level of cultivation in this lifetime.
As the sword intent struck, Li Chang'an released the massive Prajna Heart Bell, which at this moment could almost cover the entire lake surface!
On the massive frozen surface of Listening Tide Lake, the phantom of a golden bell withstood the myriad blue sword intents!
The sword intents struck the clock face but could not penetrate; they were instead worn away inch by inch.
As Li Chang'an's three realms gradually merged, the power of the three teachings' techniques increased simultaneously, making the defensive capabilities of the Prajna Heart Bell incomparable to what they were before.
Hong Xixiang gently clenched his right hand, and the Lüzu Sword was in his hand. The Lüzu Sword emitted a chilling light, as if it could cut through everything in the world!
"This sword can sever the dynasty's destiny. If I were to strike you, Li Chang'an, your fortune would surely decline greatly, and you would be unable to achieve anything great!"
Li Chang'an knew the power of the Lü Zu Sword, so he was determined to obtain it. This Lü Zu Sword was a level above all other divine swords in the world.
Suddenly, Li Chang'an's true energy surged, and thirteen golden dragons and thirteen giant elephant phantoms were generated in the Prajna Heart Bell!
A giant elephant supported the edge of the Heart Bell, a giant dragon supported the top of the Heart Bell, and the Prajna Heart Bell emitted a deafening chant, with golden runes flying out from the bell's shadow!
Lu Zu's longsword, with its blade beams reaching hundreds of feet, could not pierce even a fraction of the Heart Bell.
Hong Xixiang was surprised to discover that Li Chang'an was also a practitioner of the three religions.
Moreover, it represents the unification of the three teachings at the three levels, surpassing even the unification of the three teachings achieved by Lü Zu in the past.
Lü Dongxuan's integration of the three religions was also due to his extraordinary talent in cultivating the techniques of the three religions. He then developed a solid foundation in Vajra, Finger Profound, and Celestial Phenomena, ultimately becoming the strongest terrestrial immortal.
However, Li Chang'an actually reached the Great Vajra, Great Finger Profound, and Great Celestial Phenomenon!
Hong Xixiang had been living in seclusion on Wudang Mountain and was unaware of Li Chang'an's cultivation level. Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he was utterly shocked!
The Li Chang'an before us will surpass Lü Dongxuan in his future achievements!
