THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR The Threat from Li Jie
"You five, come here quickly!" Hong Li barked.He could no longer contain his emotions, even though he hadn't yet heard any rebuttal from the five men.Seeing Hong Li’s face redden with anger, the five men who had been beaten by Li Jie the previous day fearfully walked toward the collapsed stage."Is it true what he said? That you harassed and intended to harm that young man’s lover?""That's not true, Hong Li. We would never do something so low," one of them replied."Yes, we would never do that, Hong Li!" another chimed in.Hong Li hesitated at their denial. He then turned to Li Jie with a questioning expression.Li Jie smirked slightly, noticing the doubt on Hong Li’s face. "If every thief confessed, the prisons would be full. You can deny it all you want, but many witnesses saw what happened, including the owner of the restaurant where you harassed my lover.""Is what you said true?" Hong Li asked."If you don't believe me, let's go ask the restaurant owner. But if it turns out yo
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Cheng Hao's Shock
"Do you recognize or know anything about this necklace, Sir?"Cheng Hao took the necklace that Li Jie handed to him. A moment later, his eyes widened in shock as he recognized that the necklace belonged to Princess Hua Wen."Where did you get this necklace?" Cheng Hao asked curiously."This necklace belonged to my mother, Sir. Her name was Hua Wen," Li Jie answered softly.It was like being struck by lightning. Cheng Hao's body suddenly went weak. He fell from his chair, kneeling before Li Jie. "Forgive me, Your Highness, for not recognizing your presence here," he said, bowing his head.Li Jie was shocked by Cheng Hao’s reaction. That was never his intention when revealing the truth."Please rise, Sir. I am just an ordinary man, like everyone else. And please, do not call me ‘Your Highness’ anymore!""I dare not, Your Highness. I have made a grave mistake. I am ready to accept whatever punishment you s
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR The Final Battle
The man assigned as the master of ceremonies walked toward the stage with firm and steady steps. Before stepping onto the stage, he turned to look at Emperor Li Wei, who was seated in the place of honor. The aging emperor, whose face was lined with wrinkles, gave a small nod.After receiving permission from Emperor Li Wei, the master of ceremonies ascended the stairs one by one. His heart pounded in his chest as he prepared to host the grand finale of the tournament, attended directly by the ruler of the Shang Dynasty. He could not afford even the slightest mistake, not until the final match concluded and the title was bestowed personally by Emperor Li Wei.The man took a deep breath and exhaled slowly. He closed his eyes briefly to steady himself. The emperor’s presence alone weighed heavily on him."At last, this tournament has reached its grand finale. So far, two of the best participants have fought their way to this final match, which will be witnesse
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR The Final Battle 2
Cheng Hao hardly even blinked as he watched the battle. He couldn't comprehend what plan Li Jie was executing by continuously avoiding Prince Wang Wei’s attacks.Prince Wang Wei growled in frustration. More than sixty of his attacks had been dodged by the young man."Stop just dodging, you lowly human! Fight me!" he shouted, his breath ragged from exertion. His physical strength was being drained, so he channeled his inner energy to steady his breathing."Isn't it generous of me to give you the chance to attack for so long? Go ahead, if you want to strike again!" Li Jie taunted. He could sense that his opponent’s internal energy was beginning to wane."Curse you! You have no idea what true power I possess. Don’t think you can keep dodging my attacks forever!" Prince Wang Wei spat angrily.With a single deep breath, he lunged forward at full speed. This time, he utilized the light-body technique he had mastered to strike Li Jie.Bugh!Li Jie hadn’t anticipated that Prince Wang Wei’s sp
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Disappeared
"Wait a moment, I need to ask the Prime Minister and His Majesty first!" Cheng Hao replied. He immediately ran to present Ranu’s question to the two most important figures in the Shang Dynasty."Your Majesty, Prime Minister, it seems the fight will continue. Although Li Jie has clearly won the match, Prince Wang Wei refuses to accept it.""How could that be?" Emperor Li Wei asked."I'm not entirely sure, Your Majesty. But it seems that Prince Wang Wei has a personal grudge against Li Jie. Now, I need to convey their request, especially Li Jie's. If this fight continues, may they fight to the death?""To the death? Is their hatred so deep that they must kill each other?" Emperor Li Wei asked again. He was reluctant to allow two highly skilled warriors of his kingdom to fight to the death.Prime Minister Yuan Yu had a different reaction—he smiled inwardly. This was a great opportunity for Prince Wang Wei to seize the title of Grand Commander. If Prince Wang Wei managed to kill Li Jie, t
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Saving Emperor Li Wei
Li Jie walked toward Cheng Hao, who stood not far from the collapsed stage. He was curious about who had taken Prince Wang Wei’s severely injured body after his attack landed."Uncle, did you see the figure that took Wang Wei’s body?"Cheng Hao was startled by Li Jie's question. As far as he knew, no one had taken Prince Wang Wei's body."I didn’t see anything, Li Jie. Try asking someone else!"At that moment, Mei Lian ran toward them."Ask Mei Lian. Maybe she saw something," Cheng Hao suggested.Mei Lian, who had just arrived, looked confused. "Saw what, Uncle?" The beautiful girl also called Cheng Hao "Uncle" since Li Jie had told her that Cheng Hao knew his true identity."Right after my attack hit Wang Wei, a black shadow suddenly snatched him away. That figure moved beyond my perception. If I had to fight him, I’m not sure I could win. Did you see anything?"Mei Lian shook her head. She hadn’t seen anything. The thick smoke and dust, combined with the crowd blocking her view, had
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR The Infamous Assassin
A loud explosion echoed through the air as the two energies collided. Cheng Hao, Mei Lian, and Emperor Li Wei were thrown several steps backward due to the shockwave from the blast.Thick smoke billowed for a moment before dissipating in the wind. In front of him, Li Jie saw an old woman with long white hair, dressed entirely in black, grinning at him. Her lips and teeth were stained red, busy chewing betel leaves."Who are you, and why did you attack His Majesty!?" Li Jie demanded loudly."Hehehe... I want to kill him because someone has hired me. Whoever pays for my services is my master," she replied.Cheng Hao furrowed his brows. He seemed to recognize the figure standing before Li Jie."Liu Xingsheng, the assassin from the Serpent Valley," he muttered."So you're a hired killer? How much did they pay you to kill His Majesty? I'll double your price if you tell me who hired you!""Foolish boy! Do you take me for someone who only cares about money? Even as an assassin, I have princi
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Old Wounds
i Lian kept shaking her beloved’s body. With no experience in such matters, she assumed that Li Jie had already passed away."Why did you leave me alone, Li Jie? You promised to protect me, didn't you? Then why did you go first!?"Emperor Li Wei and Cheng Hao approached the couple. Seeing Li Jie’s condition and hearing Mei Lian’s heart-wrenching cries, they both watched with deep sympathy.Cheng Hao crouched down and took Li Jie’s wrist to check his pulse."Li Jie is not dead. He’s just unconscious," Cheng Hao said.Hearing this, Emperor Li Wei shouted for his soldiers."Take my hero to the palace. Summon the best physician in the palace and every healer in the capital!"Several soldiers carried the unconscious young man toward the palace. Emperor Li Wei, Cheng Hao, and Mei Lian followed behind with anxious hearts, fearing that Li Jie wouldn’t survive much longer.Not long after, Li Jie was placed on a grand and luxurious bed inside a spacious chamber.The palace physicians, summoned

Heading to the Tang Dynasty 2
"I still have a lot to do! I’ll take you out of this forest. After that, you can find your own way to your father's palace!" Li Jie replied."If you’re asking for payment to guide me, just tell me how much you want. Once we arrive, I’ll ask my father to pay you."Li Jie stopped walking. He turned around and looked at the girl's beautiful face."So, you still haven’t learned to appreciate others, have you? Do you think everything can be measured with wealth? Do you even realize that your father’s riches and power mean nothing in this place!?"The beautiful girl fell silent and lowered her gaze. Slowly, warm tears trickled down from the corners of her long lashes. Never in her life had anyone raised their voice at her. She had always been pampered in luxury by her parents.And now, in front of her, the only young man she hoped could lead her back to safety, had spoken so harshly—yet awakened her at the same time."Do you think your tears will soften my heart and make me help you? Don’t
Heading to the Tang Dynasty
Some members of the sect moved forward to attack Li Jie. Others, thinking more rationally, ran away from the place. They didn’t want to die in vain. Seeing four of their comrades die so easily was proof enough that they stood no chance. Especially against a young man capable of hurling fireballs to attack them.An unbalanced battle ensued. One by one, the sect members were killed and burned by the searing claws Li Jie unleashed upon them. The members of the Black Peak Sect were unable to withstand the deadly assaults.Screams of pain and death echoed repeatedly. It didn’t take long for Li Jie to wipe out all the sect members who had dared to attack him. They died at his hands, their bodies charred to ashes.Li Jie let out a long breath after finishing off the last living member of the sect. As for those who had fled, he made no effort to chase them. Instead, he focused on searching for any valuables that might still be left inside the now-deserted sect compound.After thoroughly check
The Death of Duke Yu Zun
But an unexpected and ridiculous incident caused Duke Yu Zun to fall flat on his back. His backward step had tripped over the charred corpse of a member of the Black Peak Sect.The tall and burly man cursed incoherently. Before he could get up, the young man who had become his greatest nightmare was already standing nearby."Forgive me, Prince! I surrender!" Duke Yu Zun knelt down with both hands clasped in front of his face.Li Jie gave a cynical smile at the sight of the frightened face. Before he could speak, Emperor Sin Jinhao suddenly rushed forward and swung his sword at Duke Yu Zun’s neck."Arghhhh!"The strike from Emperor Sin Jinhao was so strong that it severed Yu Zun’s head clean from his body."He doesn’t deserve to live, Prince. His crimes are beyond forgiveness!"Li Jie let out a heavy sigh. He actually had the same thought as Emperor Sin Jinhao, but he had intended to extract more information about Yu Zun’s allies before killing him."It’s fine, Your Majesty. I understa
The Final Attack
At the same time, Duke Yu Zun and Li Shimin lunged toward the young man, using the same technique as before. They were still curious about Li Jie's ability to expel poison from his body so quickly. Both of them thought to combine their venomous power to defeat the young man.Unlike the previous two strikes, this time Li Jie did not allow his body to become the target of their blows. Using the Flaming Dragon Claw technique, he charged straight at their attacks.The first clash of their opposing energies produced a muffled explosion. The two enemies were forced several steps back, while Li Jie remained firmly in place without moving an inch.Not only were they pushed back, but parts of the clothes worn by Duke Yu Zun and Li Shimin were also burned.“He’s not our match, Elder. I think he truly did defeat Elder Datuk Sesat,” said Duke Yu Zun. Doubt began to creep into his heart. Doubt that he could win against this young man standing before him.“Shall we stick to the original plan, Sir?”
The Insult of Duke Yu Zun
Li Jie simply smiled and stepped four paces forward. "Your Majesty, assist the soldiers in dealing with the sect members I’ve already crushed. These two are mine.""Very well, Prince," replied Emperor Sin Jinhao.The emperor’s respectful tone toward Li Jie left Duke Yu Zun confused. Before the emperor of the Tong Dynasty could walk away, Yu Zun shouted at him."Where do you think you're going, Sin Jinhao? We’re not finished yet!""Now that Prince Li Jie is here, you’ll be dealing with him!""Who is this snot-nosed boy that you show so much respect to?" asked Yu Zun, baffled.Emperor Sin Jinhao didn’t answer right away. He glanced at the handsome young man beside him."Just tell him, Your Majesty. So he won’t die full of curiosity," said Li Jie.The emperor nodded."This is Prince Li Jie, Supreme Commander and heir to the throne of the Shang Dynasty. Since you’ve caused trouble within the Shang Dynasty’
The Battle at the Luhan Duchy
"Who are you, and why are you blocking His Majesty from entering the Luhan Duchy!?" a head soldier barked."By order of Duke Yu Zun, no one is allowed to enter the Luhan Duchy, not even the Emperor himself!" replied a man dressed entirely in black. The sword in his hand was drawn, signaling he was ready for battle."Duke Yu Zun is not the ruler of the Tong Dynasty! You've made a serious mistake!""I don't care if you're from the palace. Anyone who dares to enter Luhan Duchy—we will eliminate them!"Hearing faint commotion from outside, Emperor Sin Jinhao turned to one of his soldiers and asked, "Soldier, what is the disturbance outside?""Forgive me, Your Majesty. We are not allowed to enter Luhan Duchy. A group assigned by Duke Yu Zun is guarding the gates."The Emperor frowned with rage. "Who are they?""Judging by their uniforms, they appear to be
Rebellion
That night passed, and morning came.Meanwhile, the three soldiers who had been ordered to arrest Duke Yu Zun finally arrived at the Luhan duchy after traveling all night without rest."Forgive us, Lord Duke... His Majesty has commanded you to appear at the palace!" said one of the soldiers while showing the royal seal given by Emperor Sin Jinhao."What is the matter that His Majesty summoned me for? And how did you end up at the palace?" asked Duke Yu Zun, curious."We were caught extorting protection money from the people, my Lord. After that, His Majesty ordered us to bring you to the palace to take responsibility for what you commanded the soldiers to do."The tall, burly duke immediately stood and put on a fierce expression. His anger surged upon hearing the news."If I refuse, what will you do? What will that foolish emperor do to me!?""We will take you to the palace by force!" one of the soldiers replied."Hahaha... The three of you want to take me? Have you suddenly grown bra
The Order of Emperor Sin Jinhao
"That’s right, Your Majesty.""Then where is he now?""The young warrior is currently on his way here, Your Majesty."Emperor Sin Jinhao was deeply puzzled. The arrival of the Shang Dynasty’s crown prince at his palace surely meant something important. But he couldn’t think of any mistake he had made since the meeting at the Song Dynasty’s palace."Forgive me, Your Majesty. But who is this young warrior, actually?" asked a soldier, curious about the worried expression on the emperor's face."He is Prince Li Jie, soldier. Grandson of His Majesty Emperor Li Wei and the rightful heir to the Shang Dynasty throne."The three soldiers were shocked to hear this. They hadn’t realized they had caused trouble yesterday with the future ruler of the Shang Dynasty. Worry crept into their minds."Forgive me, Your Majesty… but his appearance doesn’t show he’s a prince. And he didn’t even bring a single guard.""That’s just how Prince Li Jie is. He dislikes drawing attention to himself as a prince. B
Tong Dynasty
The three of them immediately turned their gaze toward Li Jie, who was feigning ignorance."You dared to kill a soldier of the Wonokerto duchy!" one of the soldiers shouted."Did you see me kill him? I've been sitting here quietly, not moving at all," Li Jie replied."Here's the evidence!" another soldier retorted, showing a bloodied chicken leg bone.Li Jie chuckled softly. He then stood up and approached the three soldiers."If I could kill him with just a chicken leg bone while sitting, imagine how easily I could kill you all while standing!"The three soldiers swallowed hard. They realized they were facing a formidable warrior. Instantly, they knelt down and begged for mercy."Forgive us, Master Warrior. Please don't kill us. We were only following the Duke's orders."Li Jie furrowed his brow. "You were ordered by the Duke?What's his name?" "Yes, Master Warrior. We were ordered by Duke Yu Zun. The security fees we collect from the villagers are handed over to the Duke," one sold
