Finale

Although Ji Boying has not known which world he has gone to, he must still be on the path of pursuing immortality.

The excitement of the martial arts world in the Great Song continues.

After leaving Shaolin Temple, Xiao Feng and his companions found a secluded spot and questioned them thoroughly about the situation.

It turns out that Xiao Yuanshan has returned to the Liao Dynasty.

He rescued the Liao Dynasty emperor in his time of need and then revealed his identity.

He would immediately be placed in a high position, and being granted a royal title and honors would be a given.

Xiao Yuanshan was ordered to conquer the Jurchen Wanyan Tribe.

Leading troops into battle.

Little did they know that a rebellion would break out in the country after he left.

The King of Chu led his troops in a rebellion, driving the Emperor of the Liao Dynasty into a desperate situation.

In the original story, it was Xiao Feng who turned the tide, capturing the rebel leader amidst a vast army and quelling the rebellion.

It also saved the Liao Dynasty emperor.

But this time, no one else could save them.

Xiao Yuanshan only heard about the rebellion in the country when he was halfway through his march.

They immediately returned to provide assistance.

But how could they possibly save the emperor in time?

The King of Chu and his followers have already usurped the throne.

Xiao Yuanshan was furious and deployed his troops to fight the King of Chu.

After a chaotic battle, Xiao Yuanshan, lacking the strength, was at a slight disadvantage.

But he was exceptionally skilled in martial arts.

With his superb martial arts skills, he charged into the enemy ranks under the cover of a group of personal guards.

It was as if we were in an empty place.

They captured the bandit leader directly, beheaded his generals, and seized the flag.

The soldiers' morale soared, and they launched a fierce attack while simultaneously trying to persuade the enemy to surrender.

In the end, all the rebellious bandits were captured.

Xiao Yuanshan believed that the emperor had treated him well after he returned to the Liao Dynasty.

After quelling the rebellion, one must then assist the emperor's descendants in succeeding to the throne.

But the emperor's descendants had already been wiped out by this traitor.

These traitors were all relatives of the emperor, and their entire families were executed by the enraged Xiao Yuanshan.

Several rounds of mass killings ensued, with you killing me and me killing you.

Most of the imperial relatives and nobles were gone.

There was no one left who was suitable to be emperor.

The branches of the imperial bloodline that were closest to the emperor's had all been wiped out, leaving no descendants.

A country cannot be without a ruler for even a day.

Those who followed Xiao Yuanshan naturally all elected Xiao Yuanshan as the new emperor.

He woke up to find himself in a terrible mess thanks to his subordinates, so he grabbed a yellow robe and draped it over himself.

Xiao Yuanshan had no choice but to accept.

Despite ascending to the throne, Xiao Yuanshan was aware that he had some health problems.

Fearing he wouldn't live much longer, he sent his men to bring his son back.

This led to the eighteen cavalrymen charging into Shaolin Temple to search for Prince Xiao Feng.

Upon learning the whole story, everyone was astonished.

Whether it's Xiao Feng, Duan Yu, or Xu Zhu, they all feel somewhat unreal.

Even the few Beggar Gang elders who were staunchly loyal to Xiao Feng were at a loss for what to do.

Their own gang leader became the crown prince of the Liao Dynasty.

Fate's cruel joke left everyone bewildered.

When Xiao Yuanshan was young, he also wanted to make contributions to the country and leave a name in history.

But who would have thought that after wasting half his life, he would actually attain a high position before his death?

If it weren't for Xiao Yuanshan, it would have been Xiao Feng who gained the Liao Dynasty emperor's favor.

It was Xiao Feng who protected the emperor amidst the internal strife in the Liao Dynasty.

But now it's Xiao Yuanshan instead.

This old man, who suffered his whole life, may have been very upright and honest when he was young.

But he felt discomfort in his body from forcibly practicing the Seventy-Two Ultimate Techniques.

Selfish motives are naturally inevitable.

He didn't know where the pain in his body came from, and he was afraid that he didn't have much time left to live.

She had only just recognized her son as her own, and her son had only just found his biological father.

Am I really going to just abandon him like this? Leave him all alone in this world, all miserable and forlorn?

Xiao Yuanshan always felt a pang of reluctance; this was his only biological child, his only family.

Driven by personal motives, whether intentionally or unintentionally, during the suppression of the Liao Dynasty, it is unclear.

In short, the royal family suffered so many casualties that no one was qualified to inherit the throne.

For the royal family to abdicate, it usually takes the efforts of one or two generations, or at the very least, swearing an oath by the Luo River as a fig leaf.

Just like Cao Cao couldn't do it, so he made Cao Pi do it.

What Sima Yi and Sima Zhao could not do, Sima Yan was to do.

Xiao Yuanshan's best choice was to become Cao Cao or Sima Yi.

Let Xiao Feng play Cao Pi or Sima Yan.

But he was old, and he willingly took the blame upon himself, bearing the infamy, and seized the throne.

After his son takes over, he will have much less pressure.

Xiao Yuanshan didn't know if Xiao Feng wanted to sit on the throne.

Perhaps he felt that Xiao Feng didn't want to, but he also felt that it was only because Xiao Feng had never done it before that he didn't want to.

I had never thought of that before.

But when he was ordered by the emperor to lead the army into battle, the feeling in his heart was different.

When he led his troops back to quell the rebellion and the throne was within his grasp, his heart, which had long been despondent, was suddenly revived as if a withered tree had come back to life.

Power is truly a good medicine.

Various reasons led Xiao Yuanshan to make this choice.

Ultimately, Xiao Feng had to return to the Liao Dynasty to become its crown prince.

Although Xiao Feng frowned and strongly resisted,

But when I looked at the handwritten letter from my father, it was clear that he was already seriously ill.

Even though Xiao Feng suspected that his father was lying to him, he still had no choice but to return to the north.

The father earnestly pleaded with his daughter-in-law to see her before he died.

I also hope to enjoy my old age and hold my grandson.

What could Xiao Feng do?

I had no choice but to return to the north.

Duan Yu returned to Dali.

Duan Zhengming and Duan Zhengchun kept their promise to Duan Yanqing and directly allowed Duan Yu to succeed to the throne.

Duan Yu was happiest when he had so many older and younger sisters around him, none of whom were his biological children.

I was really happy living those shameless days.

Although he only wanted to live a peaceful life, his biological father, Duan Yanqing, was lying low in the Western Xia Yipintang.

It helped Duan Yu accumulate strength.

Xu Zhu led the people of the Vulture Peak Palace back to Western Xia.

He became the son-in-law of the Western Xia emperor.

He lived a shameless life with his Meng Gu every day.

However, Princess Li Qinglu was not a peaceful and weak woman.

She is shrewd and ambitious.

The Western Xia Kingdom had always submitted to the Liao Dynasty.

Now the emperor of the Liao Dynasty has been replaced by Xu Zhu's sworn brother.

This was naturally excellent news for Li Qinglu.

The young emperor of the Western Xia Kingdom failed to seize power. Li Qinglu relied on the martial arts masters left behind by Li Qiushui, as well as the experts from the Vulture Peak Palace under Xu Zhu's command.

He gradually gained more and more power and influence in Western Xia.

Jiumozhi relinquished his obsession with martial arts and returned to Tubo, obediently serving as the Imperial Advisor.

The Beggar Gang's Sect members within the Great Song Dynasty were also completely bewildered and at a loss.

The young emperor of the Great Song Dynasty had just seized power and was full of ambition.

The world has changed drastically.

The important figures of the Liao Dynasty, Western Xia, and Dali kingdoms seem to have all been replaced by loyal and friendly people.

But behind these three loyal and friendly people, there was an ambitious and shrewd manipulator.

The relationship between the countries has become increasingly complex.

Did the Great Song Dynasty provoke the conflict first? Or did the Western Xia Dynasty, with the favor of the Liao Dynasty, start the war?

No one knows which direction the world will take.

But the trigger was the conflict between the five northwestern routes of the Great Song Dynasty and the Western Xia.

Once the flames of war are ignited in this place, it will have far-reaching consequences. How will the Liao Dynasty and Dali react?

Let's see whose realm this is today.

(The End)
