When the Western Xia army pressed in, Xu Xiao chose the same method.
Driven by his Telekinesis power, he traversed hundreds of kilometers in just half an hour and arrived at the Western Xia battlefield.
On the battlefield with hundreds of thousands of troops, Xu Xiao descended from the sky, his long sword transforming into a blood and flesh millstone as he charged straight into the army.
In an instant, blood and bits of flesh flew everywhere, and the soldiers of the Western Xia army were all filled with fear.
In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Xu Xiao located the commander of the Western Xia army from the battlefield of hundreds of thousands, killed him, and also wiped out the command system.
Meanwhile, the Great Song seized this opportunity and, with the shouts of some of the Martial Command Office soldiers who recognized Xu Xiao's identity, successfully routed the Western Xia army.
That's not all. Unlike the Liao, the Western Xia did not have many capitals or diverse successors. The only successor to the Western Xia was the Tangut Li Clan.
So Xu Xiao went all in and captured several Western Xia soldiers, heading straight to the Western Xia capital.
Once there, the spies from the Martial Command Office will guide him to wipe out the entire royal family of Western Xia.
Xingqing Prefecture, Western Xia Imperial Palace
News of the defeat had not yet reached them. At that time, Li Liangzuo, the Western Xia, was still studying in the palace.
Suddenly, panic erupted outside, followed by a shout that echoed throughout the palace:
"Where is Li Liangzuo! Come out and see me!"
The Brahma Sound Formless Consciousness-Seeking Sutra, obtained from the Fakong, is, in this era, a more useful tool for finding people than sonar detection.
With Xu Xiao's Internal Energy cultivation, anyone who hears it will be confused and involuntarily reveal their location.
Li Liangzuo was not surprised. Upon hearing the voice, he jumped up from the dragon throne and responded loudly in his young voice:
" Li Liangzuo is here!"
The eunuchs serving him and the guards secretly protecting him were all dumbfounded, and then quickly dragged him away.
"Your Majesty, hurry! Thieves have broken into the palace!"
The palace guards arrived slowly at this moment, while Xu Xiao took in everything from mid-air.
Hearing Li Liangzuo's shout, he instantly pinpointed the other party's location.
With a swift movement, he charged straight towards the palace where Li Liangzuo was located.
At the same time, a noblewoman who was relaxing and admiring flowers in the inner palace suddenly stood up from her couch.
"What powerful sonic techniques! They've even reached the inner palace!"
"Who is it? Daring to invade even the Western Xia imperial palace, and even using sonic techniques to find the emperor!"
This woman was dressed in a noble manner, and her figure was extremely curvaceous and alluring.
The only pity was that her face was covered by a thin veil, so her features were not visible.
It was Li Qiushui, the Imperial Consort of Western Xia, who, after the death of Li Yuanhao, the founding emperor of Western Xia, supported Li Yuanhao's son Li Liangzuo, to ascend the throne as a puppet, while she herself controlled the government from behind the scenes.
But now, upon suddenly hearing that a master had broken into the palace, she could no longer remain a bystander.
After a moment's thought, she frowned and said, "Immediately summon all the experts from the First-Class Hall to the palace to capture the thieves, and at the same time, order a state of martial law throughout Xingqing Prefecture."
"Yes." A female official or eunuch immediately took the order and went to carry it out.
Ignoring the advice of those around her, Li Qiushui lightly stepped forward and used her lightness skill to leap across rooftops and walls towards the government affairs hall.
The expert's entry into the palace was clearly aimed at the emperor; without this legitimate heir, it would be difficult for her to control Western Xia.
So Li Qiushui ran with all her might, not daring to delay at all.
But when she arrived at the main hall of the Western Xia imperial palace from the inner palace, she was met with a scene of bloodshed.
Forgive Xu Xiao for his consistently crude and ruthless methods; when killing, he only thinks about how to be clean and efficient, without considering aesthetics.
The entire government hall was covered in blood, and the bright red dragon robe on the ground indicated the emperor's fate.
Xu Xiao, having murdered the emperor, did not leave, waiting precisely for Li Qiushui's arrival.
Before he could even greet her, Li Qiushui had already used her Lingbo Weibu a martial arts technique) to unleash a White Rainbow Palm Force strike at Xu Xiao with Air-Splitting Palm technique.
"You villain! Take this!"
This Li Qiushui, despite being over eighty years old, not only has her physique remained unchanged, but her voice is also as gentle and melodious as a young girl's.
Her tone was gentle, but her palm strikes were aimed at killing.
White Rainbow Palm Force were unpredictable; seemingly aimed at Xu Xiao 'Xu Xiao chest and heart, they were actually targeting his dantian.
Their plan was clearly to cripple Xu Xiao's martial arts and to torture him to vent their resentment at being the tool of their control over the court.
Unfortunately, his opponent was Xu Xiao.
Xu Xiao originally planned to chat with Yu Yuyan's grandmother to build rapport, but she started fighting right away without warning, so he figured he wouldn't hold back either.
Ignoring the Air-Splitting Palm, Xu Xiao stretched out his right hand and reached straight for Li Qiushui's fair neck.
'Bang!'
The Air-Splitting Palm landed on Xu Xiao's dantian, but instead of feeling his physical body, it struck an aura that Li Qiushui found familiar.
The next second, the spontaneous counterattack of the Northern Darkness True Qi, protecting her body, surged back along her fair palm, causing her to freeze instantly.
Before she could even react to what was happening, a hand tightened around her neck and gripped it.
"If it weren't for the fact that you're Yuyan's grandmother, and that my martial arts skills have some connection to you, I would have snapped your neck in one go."
"You may escape the death penalty, but you can't escape punishment. You still need to be taught a lesson."
Xu Xiao slightly loosened his grip, and Li Qiushui felt a sense of suffocation.
At the same time, all of his internal Internal Energy was suppressed by the opponent, making it impossible for him to resist.
Because her neck was restrained, a few drops of saliva involuntarily dripped from the corner of her mouth. Li Qiushui tried to pry Xu Xiao's hands off with both hands, but they wouldn't budge.
Her two beautiful legs kept kicking, but they were all blocked by the self-protection of the Northern Darkness True Qi, and could not cause any harm to Xu Xiao at all.
She hissed, but couldn't utter a word; her anger and terror were only expressed through her eyes.
It wasn't until ten minutes had passed that even Li Qiushui, a martial arts master with profound inner strength, felt the terrifying lack of oxygen and the fear of death descend upon her, finally causing her to give in.
The anger and terror in her beautiful eyes were replaced by fear and regret. Only then did Xu Xiao release her neck and wipe the drool on his hands onto her palace dress.
"Uncle-Master, don't act impulsively when you meet me. Consider this a lesson you've learned. But if you ever lay a hand on me again, be prepared to die."
The emerald green Eight Treasures Thumb Ring appeared on Xu Xiao's hand, and Li Qiushui recognized its origin.
Ignoring the pain in her neck, she demanded in a shrill voice:
"How did the Seven Treasures Thumb Ring end up with you! Where's my senior brother? What did you do to him?"
