THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR The Villagers' Suspicion
"You survived after all." Li Jie stepped closer to the bandit."Now, tell me clearly—where is your hideout?" he continued."If I tell you the location, will you spare me?""I promise I won’t kill you. You have my word.""Alright, I’ll tell you."Despite the pain from his torn arm, the bandit pointed in the direction of the Forest of Death Bandits’ hideout."I’ve told you the location. As per your promise, you must let me go.""Wait…! I have one more question. Why is this village completely deserted?" Li Jie asked."We killed them all because they resisted us," the bandit replied.Li Jie clenched his fists, suppressing his rage. He then turned to Hong Li and nodded.Sensing danger, the bandit quickly shouted at Li Jie, "Didn’t you promise not to kill me?!""I won’t stain my hands with your blood. But I can’t speak for him.""You bastard! You tricked me!" the bandit screamed before death claimed him.Hong Li raised his sword and swiftly slashed the bandit's neck. His head rolled on the
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Battle in the Bandit Village
"So after this village, we'll be entering the Death Forest?" Li Jie asked, his sharp eyes scanning the surroundings. He noticed many people openly staring at them, while others observed from the shadows."That's right, Li Jie. So what now? Should we stay here or continue our journey?""We stay for now. I'm curious about this village. Too many people are watching us, and from the way they look at us, I can tell they have ill intentions. Be prepared for the worst, Hong Li!" Li Jie replied, his gaze locking onto more than a dozen men approaching them. Each held a weapon, their sharp blades gleaming menacingly."Where are you from, and what do you want in this village?" demanded a man at the front. His tone carried clear hostility."Do we need permission to go wherever we want? Do we have to report to you first?""You brat...! How dare you talk back to me? Do you even know who you're dealing with? Hahaha!"The man’s laughter was echoed by his companions."I've heard that most of the men i
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Death Forest Bandit Hideout
"Retreat to the main hideout...!" shouted the bandit leader of the village."No matter where you run, I will find you—even in the nostrils of an ant!" Li Jie roared.He raised his sword high. In the next instant, dozens of white streaks of light shot from his blade, chasing after the bandits fleeing from him.Unbeknownst to them, those streaks of light pursued their targets relentlessly, refusing to let go. One by one, their bodies collapsed as the beams pierced through them, claiming their lives in an instant.Hong Li swallowed hard. He had no way of measuring the true extent of Li Jie's power. Every technique the young warrior unleashed had devastating effects."How did you acquire such techniques, Li Jie? Where did you train?" Hong Li asked."I’ll tell you later. Right now, we need to rid this village of any remaining bandits," Li Jie replied.Neither of them realized that two bandits had successfully escaped. The two survivors sprinted toward the Death Forest, rushing to the main
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Approaching the Death Forest Bandit Hideout
Some villagers also went into the forest to gather firewood. Their purpose was clear—burning the corpses was the fastest solution compared to burying them. Most of those helping in the process were women, whose strength would not be enough to dig graves for all the bodies.Once all the corpses were gathered in one place, they were covered with an abundance of firewood. Several villagers then set the wood ablaze, and soon, a massive fire roared to life.A woman, who already knew who Li Jie was, hesitated as she walked toward the young warrior. When she finally reached him, she gathered the courage to speak."Forgive me, Grand Commander... If you wish, you may stay at my house tonight. You can resume your mission in the morning."Li Jie frowned. How did this woman know his identity as the Grand Commander of the Song Dynasty? He turned to Hong Li, who stood beside him. "Why did you tell her?"Hong Li chuckled softly. "So they under
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Meeting at the Song Dynasty
The two of them then dashed forward toward the bandits' headquarters.While sprinting at full speed, Li Jie wasted no time and unleashed two fireballs from his palms. The fireballs shot forward at incredible speed, striking down dozens of bandits at once.A follow-up wave of fireballs was launched three more times, completely shattering the enemy’s formation. The handsome young man didn’t want to give them a chance to regroup, so he repeatedly executed his Demon Fireball technique.Dozens of Death Forest Bandits, their bodies engulfed in flames, ran around in agony. Their screams were haunting. Some rolled on the ground, desperately trying to extinguish the fire on their bodies, but their efforts were in vain. In the end, they perished, their bodies charred beyond recognition.The swift assault caught Gao Ling off guard. He had been overconfident, believing that

"We must unite to attack the Shang Dynasty Palace!" shouted Emperor Sin Jinhao of the Tong Dynasty."That's right, we must unite. We will destroy the Shang Dynasty!" responded Emperor Fang Yun of the Han Dynasty.Voices of agreement filled the discussion hall of the Song Dynasty palace. Everyone expressed their approval to join forces in attacking the Shang Dynasty.Suddenly, the five emperors fell silent and turned toward the entrance of the hall. A soldier entered after saluting all the rulers present."What is it, soldier?" asked Emperor Liu Zun."There is a guest from the Shang Dynasty Palace outside, Your Majesty," the soldier replied softly."Who?""The Grand Commander, Your Majesty."Emperor Liu Zun was taken aback by this report. Why would the Grand Commander suddenly appear at his palace during a meeting with the other emperors? He suspected that someone among them had betrayed their cause."Are yo
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR The Healer
The Healer“No need, Your Majesty. Let me go instead. Perhaps the other kings would also like to see the prince's condition, and we can go together.”Emperor Liu Zun looked at the four other emperors present. They nodded their heads in agreement.“Let’s go, My Lord.” Emperor Liu Zun stood up and walked out of the hall. Behind him, Li Jie and Hong Li followed. The four other emperors trailed behind them.Before long, they arrived at a chamber and entered.Inside, Prince Liu Eng lay helplessly on the bed. A middle-aged woman, a beautiful young lady, and the royal physician were also present, tending to the prince.“Commander, let me introduce you to my wife, Mei Shin. And this is my daughter, Mei Hwa, Prince Liu Eng’s younger sister.”Li Jie smiled and nodded at the two women Emperor Liu Zun had just introduced. “My name is Li Jie, Your Majesty.&
THE GOD'S OF CHOSEN WARRIOR Palace Politics
The physician recalled his teacher’s words about The Healer, someone who could cure others simply by touching them. At first, he did not believe it, but now that he had witnessed it himself—someone possessing such an ability—he finally understood the truth."My son, express your gratitude to Commander Li Jie. He is the one who has healed you," said Emperor Liu Zun to Prince Liu Eng.With his body still weak from prolonged immobility, Prince Liu Eng turned his head toward Li Jie, who was seated in a chair."Thank you for your help, Commander," the prince said weakly.Li Jie smiled warmly. "Do not thank me, but rather thank the heavens that have granted you this healing. I am merely a conduit, a messenger of the gods on this earth."Emperor Liu Zun found himself once again astounded by this young man’s demeanor. "If only I had a son-in-law like him, I would be truly happy and willing

Falling in Love
The silence between them lingered for quite some time. Li Jie had nothing to say, while Liu Zixuan was overwhelmed by the feelings she had for the young man beside her.The atmosphere grew even more solemn as a gentle drizzle slowly began to wet the earth that night.In his mind, Li Jie suddenly remembered the moments before his wife’s death—those quiet evenings when he and Mei Lian sat together on the front porch after a long day of farming. Without realizing it, Li Jie reached out and held Liu Zixuan’s hand tightly. His emotions swept him away, as if the girl beside him was Mei Lian.Liu Zixuan was startled and confused. She looked at Li Jie’s face, but there was no expression—his handsome features were flat and cold, his gaze blank, staring straight ahead.From a distance, behind the wall, Empress Li Meifang watched the scene with a joyful smile. She had been looking for her daughter but held herself back upon seeing Liu Zixuan alone with Li Jie. She decided to simply observe from
Birthmark
Curious about what Emperor Liu Zuan would ask him, Li Jie followed the request of the Tang Dynasty's ruler.Upon arriving at the palace hall, Emperor Liu Zuan asked Li Jie to recount the rescue of his daughter."At first, I didn’t know that Princess Liu Zixuan was in that sect, Your Majesty. My only intention was to eliminate the remnants of the Black Peak Sect at one of its branches," said Li Jie.Emperor Liu Zuan furrowed his brow deeply. He had heard of the sect Li Jie mentioned. His gaze shifted to his prime minister who was also present in the hall."Prime Minister Guang Zi, didn’t you once mention that sect?""Yes, Your Majesty. That sect followed the path of the dark arts," answered the white-haired man, who was the Prime Minister of the Tang Dynasty."If I may ask, where exactly is this sect located, young warrior?" Guang Zi asked Li Jie.Li Jie gave a faint smile. He knew the white-haired man was testing him."The main sect lies atop Mount Lawu, Prime Minister. Its branch was
Apology
Liu Zixuan sat in silence, her head bowed. Her tears began to flow again as she listened to Li Jie’s words. She could no longer count how many hearts she had hurt with her terrible behavior.“How long can a person live in this world? Will they live forever?”Liu Zixuan slowly shook her head.“If you’ve come to your senses, then change your attitude and behavior. And now, I’ll take you home,” Li Jie concluded.Unbeknownst to them, a pair of eyes watched them from afar. A faint smile formed on the face hidden beneath a bamboo hat.After helping Liu Zixuan mount Ireng’s back, Li Jie leapt up with ease. He then spurred his horse forward, following the path toward the palace of the Tang Dynasty.Liu Zixuan, struggling to sit in front, eventually moved to the back. She wrapped her arms tightly around Li Jie as the horse galloped swiftly.On the third day, they finally arrived at the gates of t
The Man in the Bamboo Hat
"It looks like we've got ourselves a very special catch today, boys! A beautiful goddess sent down just for us. Look at that body... so firm and full. I'm sure we'll be more than satisfied enjoying her!" one of them said."Let’s just hope she’s strong enough to serve us all, hahaha!" another one replied."Judging by her figure, I bet she's still a virgin. How about we draw lots to see who gets to take her virginity first?" said a slightly chubby man. "But first, let’s catch her!"The beautiful girl was clearly not ready for the situation she was facing. Yesterday, she had been kidnapped by members of the Black Peak Sect for ransom, but this time, it was different. These six men were burning with lust to lay their hands on her."Don't come any closer or I'll scream!""Scream all you want, pretty girl! There’s no one else here but us. You'd better obey, and we can all enjoy a piece of heaven together!" said a tal
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’
