Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 101: Counterattack On West Savage Kingdom

Li Qinglins will was for Li Qingjun to succeed the empress of South Li Kingdom, but Li Qingjun refused and firmly supported her little niece to become the empress.

This one-year-old girl had an unbearable name, Li Wuxian (no immortal). That was because around the time she was born, her father was at the most intense stage of conflict with Dong Huazi, and his mantra was There is no immortal in this world!

Qin Yi thought that the childs name was the biggest stain of Li Qinglin. He wondered if she would change her name when she grew up

The biggest difference between her enthronement and the past is that there was a Qian Kingdom envoy in the palace to witness it. He reported the situation to the Qian Kingdom Emperor from all the way.

The little girl was not the empress of the independent South Li Kingdom, but the Vassal South Li Kingdom Empress of the Qian Kingdom.

But this was not important. There was almost no difference. Theoretically, they needed to wait for the Qian Kingdom to send an envoy to canonize the emperor, but South Li Kingdom still completed the enthronement ceremony by itself. The Qian Kingdom envoy in the palace was not here to canonize. He had been here before and had not left yet. He was just observing the ceremony

Qian Kingdoms emperor was far away on the mainland, so he wouldnt care so much.

Maybe when the Qian Kingdom fell, the South Li Kingdom would still be there. The history mentioned by Li Qinglin was likely to repeat itself again.

This was Qin Yis first time to participate in this kind of enthronement ceremony, and he had an important role too. As the state preceptor, he should even do the etiquette of crowning the new empress.

It was not a Western kind of coronation. It was just reading out the manuscript of offering sacrifices to heaven. Its basically just a formal procedure. The palace had been burned down, so the ceremony performed in the remaining side hall seemed even more shabby and perfunctory.

When reading read out the manuscript, the little girl was sitting on the dragon throne. Qin Yi stood in front of her and read to her while observing the little girl.

He thought this little girl was special.

She was only over a year old, could not even walk clearly, could only speak some very simple words, and diaper changes had to be done by someone But when a child like this faced the West Savage Kingdom soldiers, she could not even cry. The whole enthronement ceremony was extremely complicated, but she just sat there quietly, neither crying nor fussing nor sleeping.

In this world with souls and supernatural powers, Qin Yi even wondered if this child had crossover or was possessed by someone. How could there be such a one-year-old child?

He consulted Liu Su, but the answer was no.

This was really the soul of a young child. The souls of adults were very different from those of children. Liu Su would never have missed it.

Qin Yi could only attribute this to the fact that Li Qinglins genetics were too OP. This child obviously had an unlimited potential

Li Qingjun was named the regent and took charge of everything. Before the little empress grew up, Li Qingjun was the empress.

Qin Yi was also fortunate enough to witness a girl being promoted from princess to princess royal and then to empress aunty in just over 2 months, achieving a triple jump in seniority.

This South Li Kingdom was full of troubles and crises.

Your Highness Regent. After the ceremony, the little empress who finally peed his pants was taken to change her diaper. The Qian Kingdom envoy approached Li Qingjun with a smile.

I just received the news that the West Savage Kingdom has also submitted its pledge of submission to our Qian Kingdom. From now on, we will all belong to the same kingdom

Li Qingjun said calmly, Congratulations to Emperor Qian for his unification of the south. By the way, the West Savage Kingdom is barbaric, the food is vulgar, and the residence is simple. I wonder if the southern expedition soldiers can get used to it? Why dont we let them spend the winter in South Li Kingdom. I will be our honor to show some hospitality.

The envoy smiled knowingly, Since they are not far apart, of course it would be good for them to spend the winter in South Li Kingdom.

Li Qingjun still had some room to grow in keeping her composure. She looked obviously happy after hearing this.

The envoy smiled, then he turned to Qin Yi, I heard that State Preceptor has real immortal arts. Did you really put out the fire in the palace instantly?

Qin Yi was marveling at Li Qingjuns growth. When he heard this, he said humbly, You think too highly of me.

The envoy smiled and said, If state preceptor is free, please pay a visit to Dragon Abyss City. His Majesty will definitely welcome you.

Qin Yi handed over his hand and said, I will do so when I have the time.

The envoy left very satisfied.

The people of South Li Kingdom were indeed not like the southern barbarians. They had the inheritance for thousands of years and had learned from mainland intermarriage throughout the ages. Their civilized manners, food, and craftsmanship were all the same as those of the mainland. Not to mention their handsome and pretty appearance, their thoughts were very meticulous too. They could understand the underlying meaning without obvious hints. In comparison, the West Savage Kingdom was the true southern barbarian. It went without saying that people from the mainland would be close to which kingdom.

Li Qingjun asked the southern expedition army to stay in the South Li Kingdom for the winter. What she actually meant was to test whether she could attack the West Savage Kingdom. Because if the Qian Kingdom army were stationed in the West Savage Kingdom, if she attacked them, it would be a provocation to the Qian Kingdom. However, if the Qian Kingdom army withdrew into the South Li Kingdom, it was acquiescing that she could attack.

What Qian Kingdom Emperor wanted was the achievement of conquering the southern area. As for how the two vassals fought among themselves, he didnt particularly care. The fiercer the war, the better. There would be room for superior mediation by the Qian Kingdom. They didnt know much about the details of the two kingdoms, so they didnt think that this century-old feud would really destroy either of them in one war.

Even if one kingdom was eliminated, it was not too important.

Therefore, the bias of the envoy was more important.

Of course, this couldnt be determined by cultural proximity. The envoy would prefer South Li Kingdom, just because Li Qinglin gave him a lot of wealth.

He had even calculated this step.

Li Qingjun felt that if she still couldnt win with such a setup, she would be ashamed to see her brother in hell in the future.

At the end of the first year of Qin Yis time travel calendar, there was a severe cold.

South Li Kingdoms previous emperor hadnt even died for seven days, and the new empress was still wearing diaper. Regent Li Qingjun and General Xie Yuan mobilized the army and marched to attack the West Savage Kingdom.

State Preceptor Qin Yi accompanied along.

This was the decisive war.

In the eyes of the Qian Kingdom, this was a mutual pecking between rookies.

The West Savage Kingdom lost all its elites and generals, and its homeland was invaded by the Qian Kingdom, so it was in a total mess. When the army retreated, it was chased for hundreds of miles by Li Qingjun, suffering heavy casualties. It was at its weakest time.

Similarly, the South Li Kingdom was also extremely weak. It had been ruined by the emperor who indulged in cultivating to the point of almost falling. This winter, the food reserves were even scarcer. They even collected the civilian food for the expedition, which was only enough to to support the army for only a few days. If they were defeated, it would be a complete collapse.

But this was the only chance because the West Savage Kingdom would definitely recover faster than the South Li Kingdom. If they didnt take advantage of this battle to completely determine the outcome, there would be no chance again.

West Savage Kingdom border city.

The city wall was being sieged. The defender nervously ordered the pawns to pour water on the city wall. In this winter, the ice quickly condensed and made the wall slippery, making it difficult for the attackers.

Several pieces of talisman drifted from the sky.

After a burst of crisp crackling sounds, the guard stared dumbfoundedly as the ice spikes emerged on the city wall. It looked as if there were many long thorns growing on the city wall

Damn, why dont ice spikes grow denser? Arent these sparse and thick thorns a natural ladder for the enemy?

The defenders nearly vomited blood out of anger. In the army below, a green-shirted young man hovered in the air with his eyes closed and hands forming seals. He was surrounded by yellow talismans like a god in the snow.

Grade 8 talisman, Ice Spike.

South Li Kingdom State Preceptor Qin Yi?

The defenders despaired.

When they sieged, there was a shaman casting spells to dry the city wall. The enemy had state preceptor who could also cast tao spells, which were better than their drying spell.

Thousands of troops surrounded the city wall.

Fire rose into the sky. After two hours the Li Fire City army left the border, the border city of the West Savage Kingdom was breached and burned to the ground.
