Chapter 397 - 169: Scholars, Warriors, Loyalty, Treachery, Heroes, Villains, Life and Death!
Indeed...
When Tantai Xianming saw Li Guanyi appear and charge over with the Battle Halberd, he had already deduced the outcome, why he appeared at the Qilin Palace, why there was a strategist behind him, why he was connected to the Xue Family, and why he wanted to kill Emperor Chen’s illegitimate son, Chen Dingye.
All of this was originally disjointed.
However, when Li Guanyi appeared, Tantai Xianming guessed the last piece of the puzzle and the connection in all these matters, that is, if the young man before him was Li Wanli’s son, then everything could be explained.
Even so, when the young man himself said it, Tantai Xianming still felt a moment of daze; he almost instinctively raised his hand, grabbed the dark gold handle of the Fierce Tiger Sky Shouting Halberd, and what flickered before his eyes was a vision of another young man, long long ago.
"Sir, hello, my name is Li Wanli."
Clenching the halberd tightly, the memory of that blurred young man seemed to overlap with the person before him, and in the next moment, the Divine Weapon, Fierce Tiger Sky Shouting Halberd, burst out a deep tiger roar, shaking Tantai Xianming’s hand off.
This halberd is spirit-possessed, only the righteous and heroic can wield it.
Li Guanyi suddenly retreated, the edge of the halberd ripping through flesh, and with his right hand holding the Divine Weapon, he slid his left to draw a sword. Initially, he was to draw the matching sword of the Imperial Guard, but he paused and instead unsheathed the lethal and exceptionally sharp Qiushui Sword from his waist.
Behind him, the void stirred, and both the Red Dragon and White Tiger appeared, their roars rising simultaneously.
The poison blood was forced open, sending layers of intense ripples spreading.
