Chapter 234: The frost has frozen the lake! Zhao Fengya has been kidnapped!
Three days later.

The wedding procession from Shazhou entered Liangzhou city. The team of hundreds of people was huge.

Hundreds of Jinyiwei have already sneaked into Liangzhou City and are now quietly moving towards the Beiliang Palace.

The destination of these Jinyiwei was Tingchao Pavilion in the Beiliang Palace, where the martial arts that Xu Xiao had collected during his travels across the world were located.

Li Changan wanted to build the best building in the world and recruit martial arts figures from all over the world, so he needed these martial arts secrets.

The reason for coming to the wedding with such fanfare was, on the one hand, to find a chance to kill Chen Zhibao, and on the other hand, to learn Ting Chao Ting's martial arts.

The Beiliang people who were watching the wedding could not help but feel curious, because the King of Tang himself was not in the wedding procession.

Most of the team is made up of Jinyiwei and gangsters, and they all look like masters who are not easy to mess with.

The team soon reached Beiliang Mountain. They were guided by servants from the Beiliang Palace along the way, so there were no accidents.

Wu Liuding, Gong Banque and others were all on high alert. Since they had arrived this time, they were ready for a fight.

But along the way, there was no big movement, it was so quiet that it was a little eerie.

After a few minutes, everyone was blocked by the wide lake in front of them. This was Qingliang Lake.

Qingliang Lake covers a very large area. Beyond Qingliang Lake is Tingchao Pavilion, which is the Beiliang Palace.

The servants of the palace deliberately led the team to this road in order to give them a warning.

Cuihua pointed at the dark crowd on the other side of the lake and said, "Wu Liuding, look at the other side, so many people are waiting, it's clear that they are trying to intimidate us."

Despite the vast lake, the Beiliang Palace did not send any boats to pick them up, which was obviously intended to embarrass the people from the Tang Palace.

Gong Banque shouted at the servants of the Beiliang Palace, "Where is your boat? You must have done this on purpose!"

The servant said in embarrassment, "The ships have not yet been assembled. When they are assembled, they will be sent together. Please do not worry."

Across the lake, Xu Xiao sat on the armchair, waiting leisurely.

Several important figures also sat with him by the lake.

Crown Prince Chen Zhibao, General Yuan Zuozong, the court envoy Han Shengxuan, the two heavenly masters Zhao Danxia and Zhao Danping from Longhu Mountain, the head of Dongyue Sword Pool Chai Qingshan, and several famous masters in the martial arts world.

Prince Chen Zhibao broke through the realm of earthly immortals and seemed very proud of himself.

"Father, why didn't the ancestor of the Xuanyuan family come?"

Xu Xiao snorted coldly and said rather unhappily, "There was an internal fight in the Xuanyuan family. Xuanyuan Jingcheng surrendered to Li Changan and killed three first-class grandmasters in the family."

"Xuanyuan Dapan from the Great Celestial Realm was killed by Li Changan, so of course he can't come."

At this time, the Dragon and Tiger Heavenly Master Zhao Danxia beside him said with a smile, "It's better for Xuanyuan Dapan to die."

"This time, His Majesty has ordered not only to send us from Longhu Mountain to help, but also to send Han Diao Si from the palace."

"King of Beiliang, between you and Li Changan, His Majesty supports you!"

Xu Xiao remained silent. The court did not give him any clues as to why they were suddenly supporting him so enthusiastically.

Longhu Mountain is the state religion of the Liyang court. Many immortals who ascended from Longhu Mountain and the current Heavenly Masters are all royal family members with the surname Zhao.

It is a great honor for the two Heavenly Masters Zhao Danxia and Zhao Danping to come to support Beiliang.

As for the cold-hearted Han Diaosi, he was a close minister of Zhao Chun. The fact that he came to Beiliang showed that the emperor was very supportive of Xu Xiao.

Xu Xiao couldn't help but complain in his heart. Li Changan's current territory was not much different from his own. Was it just because of his youth that the court was more wary of Li Changan than Beiliang?

No matter what, making Li Changan suffer a loss is what Xu Xiao hopes to see.

Han Shengxuan said coldly, "King of Beiliang, now that so many experts have gathered here, if you can kill Li Changan or keep him here, it will be a great achievement."

Xu Xiao's heart sank. As expected, the imperial court had already decided to kill Li Changan. They sent the Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain and Han Diao Si here most likely for this purpose.

Zhao Danxia looked at the wedding procession across from her and suddenly laughed, "This Li Changan is so bold and boring. He knows that the Beiliang Palace will not give him a good face, but he still comes to marry."

Han Diaosi sneered and said, "That's because he never expected that the imperial court would also send experts to help him. He must never return from this trip."

At this moment, Xu Fengnian stood silently behind Xu Xiao, looking cynical and confused.

He casually glanced at the other side of the river and found two figures coming to the lake, discussing how to cross the river.

One of the two men was the old sword god Li Chungang whom he had met.

At this moment, Li Chungang and Deng Tai'a stopped by the lake. Li Chungang complained, "Deng Tai'a, Xu Xiao asked you to help, why didn't he send a boat to pick you up?"

Deng Tai'a replied, "A servant sent me a message asking me to go to the palace yesterday, but I didn't want to see those messy people, so I went with you."

Li Chungang walked to the edge of the lake and said casually, "Although the lake is wide, it is not difficult for us to cross it, but your donkey cannot cross it."

"You've been riding your donkey for so many years, haven't you made any progress in your cultivation?"

How could an animal practice cultivation? Deng Tai'a did not answer Li Chungang, but got off the donkey and let the donkey run into the forest to eat grass.

"Let's go."

As they talked, they stepped on the water and leisurely crossed the river.

As soon as the two men left, Li Changan, Zhuge Liang, and Cao Zhengchun also came to the lake, bringing people from the Xuanyuan family with them.

Qingniao stepped forward and reported, "Your Highness, Xu Xiao deliberately did not send boats, making it impossible for the team to cross the river."

Li Changan looked at the width of the lake. A first-rank grandmaster could pass through it using lightness skills, but those with lower cultivation levels would not be able to.

Whether going down the mountain and taking a detour or waiting for Xu Xiao to send a boat, it would be somewhat embarrassing.

Therefore, the masters in the wedding procession felt that they had no idea where to start and were very frustrated.

Li Changan walked to the edge of the lake and looked at the opposite side from afar. He could even hear some of Xu Xiao's laughter.

"Xu Xiao is so boring. We are mortal enemies, but he still plays these little tricks."

This little trick won't cause any substantial loss, but it will make people feel sick as if they had eaten a fly.

"Forget it, let the fools on the other side broaden their horizons."

After Li Changan finished speaking, the true energy around him suddenly surged, and a cold and powerful true energy quickly spread around.

Just when everyone felt the biting cold and almost lost consciousness, Li Changan slowly floated above the lake.

The icy inner energy around him slowly escaped from his body, forming a strong cyclone several feet high.

"call!"

Li Changan punched out in the air with one hand, and this punch, wrapped in the cold air around his body, was injected into the lake like a huge rock!
"Kakakaka..."

Immediately afterwards, the entire Tingchao Lake began to freeze rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, with the huge cyclone as the center!
The icy cyclone on Li Changan's body is exactly the Tianshuang Power cultivated from the Tianshuang Fist, which is a great celestial phenomenon move that can mobilize the weather of heaven and earth.

The frost energy spread rapidly in the lake, and the lake surface was filled with cold air wherever it passed, and the shimmering lake water turned into solid ice! Xuanyuan Jingcheng couldn't help but sigh, "It is said that Cao Guanzi has the unique power of the Eight Dippers of Celestial Phenomena, but now it seems that His Royal Highness the King of Tang's celestial power is unmatched in the world!"

Zhuge Liang also nodded with a smile and said, "Your Highness has achieved all three realms in one. Others, no matter how talented they are, cannot do this."

"Everyone, stop being in a daze, let's go over there."

Masters such as Wu Liuding and Gong Banque were all staring in a daze at the rapidly freezing lake water.

I have never heard of such power in the Celestial Realm. The martial arts practiced by the prince are too domineering. This is no different from the legendary gods.

Deng Tai'a and Li Chungang, who were walking on the water, suddenly felt a chill under their feet. They turned around and saw Li Changan's magical skill of freezing the lake water with one punch.

The two sword gods were knowledgeable, but they had never seen true energy that was so close to supernatural powers.

Deng Tai'a blew a whistle, and the donkey in the forest rushed out like an arrow and stepped onto the ice.

As soon as the donkey stepped onto the ice, it slipped and fell to the ground with a loud thud.

Deng Tai'a frowned and cursed, "This beast, the dead donkey is lying on the ice beach, let it catch up slowly."

Then he stopped caring about his donkey and turned to Li Chungang and said, "If the old sword god recovers his cultivation as a land immortal, can he achieve this level?"

Li Chungang shook his head. "I opened the Heaven Gate last time, so how can I recover my Earthly Immortal cultivation? Even if I did, I can't turn water into ice."

"Besides, this kind of mysterious method has nothing to do with sword intent, so I'm too lazy to learn it."

The two sword gods didn't seem to care much, but they were both wondering in their hearts where Li Changan got these strange skills from.

The two Heavenly Masters of Mount Longhu, who had been sitting confidently on the opposite side, could no longer sit still.

Even if Wu Fu's celestial phenomena could cause water to freeze, it was unbelievable that a human being could freeze such a large lake into solid ice.

"Monster, it really is a monster, no wonder His Majesty must get rid of this person!"

There was a hint of fear in Zhao Danxia's eyes, but she then pretended to be calm and said, "Since he is a demon, how can he escape the demon-suppressing method of my Dragon Tiger Mountain Heavenly Master!"

Zhao Danping and Zhao Danxia looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes. Both of them, the great masters of Taoism, were no match for Li Changan!

Chen Zhibao clenched the plum wine spear in his hand, his expression becoming increasingly gloomy, because he couldn't match Li Changan's skills yet.

"There's nothing to be afraid of. After all, I have already broken through the land immortal realm. No matter how powerful Li Changan is, there is still a gap in realm!"

He encouraged himself, but the gangsters behind Xu Xiao were all timid. After all, they had never seen such magical powers before.

Under the gaze of everyone, Li Chungang and Deng Tai'a crossed the lake and reached the other side first. When Xu Xiao saw this, he was immediately overjoyed.

"The Peach Blossom Sword God is here. Please help me stop Li Changan today."

Deng Tai'a said calmly, "As agreed, I will try my best to make a move once."

Xu Xiao felt relieved. He found it very strange that the only reinforcement that had not arrived was from Wudang Mountain.

Wudang Mountain has always been the most loyal to the Beiliang Palace, why hasn't it shown up yet?

Not long after, Li Changan brought a huge team to the opposite side of Tingchao Lake.

This was the first time Li Changan met Xu Xiao. Xu Xiao now had gray hair and a limp and a hunchback.

Although he looked very embarrassed, no one in the world dared to underestimate this butcher of the Spring and Autumn Period.

There is an unspoken rule in the Liyang Dynasty, that is, the two kings do not want to see each other. Now that the two kings, one old and one young, meet, their emotions are very complicated.

Li Changan spoke first, "The King of Beiliang has made such a big show. I am really flattered."

Xu Xiao put his hands behind his back and forced a smile, "Prince Tang is young and promising, he really doesn't look like someone with the surname Hong."

"It seems that the late emperor changed your surname and changed your luck, and your brain has become smarter."

Li Changan glanced at Chen Zhibao and Xu Fengnian and also smiled.

"A dragon may not give birth to a dragon. The King of Beiliang was a hero in his lifetime, but his son was not very promising."

Hearing these words, everyone in Beiliang was immediately filled with indignation, and Xu Longxiang became even more impatient.

"Li Changan, you are a toad wanting to eat swan meat. I, Xu Longxiang, am here today. You can't take my elder sister away!"

At this time, Xu Fengnian reached out his hand to stop Xu Longxiang, "Huang Man'er, don't say too much. Everything is decided by father and the prince."

The current Xu Fengnian is trying to keep a low profile. Before he recovers his previous life's skills, he doesn't want to offend Li Changan at all.

Li Changan ignored Xu Fengnian and glanced at the crowd, and saw Princess Suizhu who was glaring with anger.

Zhao Fengya had already met Han Diaosi, and naturally told him about Li Changan stealing her Suizhu.

Han Shengxuan comforted her, saying that Li Changan would most likely die in the Beiliang Palace, and even if he didn't die he would have to flee in a panic. Today he would definitely be able to vent the princess's anger.

Li Changan glanced at the gate of Beiliang Palace behind everyone. The gate was closed and it didn't look like a wedding was taking place there.

"King of Beiliang, I am here to marry the princess today. What do you mean by this?"

Xu Xiao said coldly, "You don't even call me father-in-law, so how can you talk about marrying me?"

Li Changan glanced at the two Heavenly Masters from Mount Longhu and Han Diaosi who had not stood up from beginning to end, and guessed their thoughts.

"The King of Beiliang never thought of marrying off his daughter, so why should I call you father-in-law? Moreover, even if I marry Xu Zhihu, you are not worthy of being my father-in-law."

Xu Xiao glanced at the masters around him, and then said confidently, "Do you think you have the ability to marry a fat tiger?"

Li Changan sighed immediately, "You are so old, and you are really making trouble."

"If you hadn't caused this, Xu Zhihu would have been a concubine at least. Now that you are so rude, Xu Zhihu can only be a concubine."

After hearing Li Changan's words, the Beiliang side started cursing again.

At this time, Han Diaosi slowly stood up and took out an imperial edict.

On the Beiliang side, everyone from Xu Xiao down knelt down to listen to his orders, but on the Tang King's side, everyone stood upright.

"The Emperor, by the Mandate of Heaven, proclaims that the Northern Liang King Xu Xiao has served the northwest with great hard work and merit."

"I am grateful for their sincere request and deep affection for you, so I am revoking the proposal to grant you the marriage."

"The Tang prince has made great contributions in recovering Shazhou. I will never forget it. I will definitely choose a virtuous daughter of a prince to marry him. I decree this..."

Before Han Shengxuan finished his words, he felt the surging of true energy in front of him, and a long dragon condensed from golden true energy flew out from Li Changan's hand.

The long dragon flew in front of Zhao Fengya in the blink of an eye, then the long dragon condensed its claws and pulled Zhao Fengya in front of Li Changan.

Li Changan pulled Zhao Fengya's long hair, causing Zhao Fengya to scream in surprise.

"No need to choose. The beloved daughter of the tyrant Liyang, I accept her with pleasure."
