If the former is hardware, then the latter is software. Even a supercomputer with a computing power of a trillion times will not perform better than a mobile phone or a personal computer without a suitable algorithm and software driver.

"So what about the Transport Yamen at Taierzhuang, has there been any movement?"

At this point, Li Xuan suddenly felt extremely hungry. His complexion changed slightly, and he quickly took out a few porcelain bottles from the Sumi Ring and swallowed all the ’Jiuyou Oil’ inside.

Heavenly Master Zhang Shenye had previously given him five bottles, which Li Xuan thought would be enough for a while. Because he had been staying on Longhu Mountain, he didn’t have the chance to go shopping.

But right now, Li Xuan regretted it. For some reason today, after swallowing these bottles of ’Jiuyou Oil’, he still wasn’t satiated.

Thus, he had to take out more food from the small Sumi Ring and ate it hastily and eagerly.

These were all given to Li Xuan by Mrs. Liu before he left home. Luckily, otherwise he would feel like eating dirt.

"I just glanced from a high place, and there is a cavalry unit of three hundred people already rushing this way." Luo Yan said, unable to hide her amazement. She stared at Li Xuan: "How can you eat so much? Are you insane?"

"Mind your business, my situation is special now, I’ll explain it later." Li Xuan forced a bitter smile: "Do you have any more food?"

Just at that moment, Li Xuan felt a stabbing pain in both his arms. He lifted his sleeves, only to find several gold lines appearing on both arms, and to his touch, they felt metallic.

Li Xuan was taken aback. Before, he had only noticed a metal grid underneath his skin. But today, the metal had spread to the surface of his skin.

Especially his left arm— he could see the illusion of a golden Taotie. The eyes sparkled with a violent light, and it was baring its teeth and growling at him as if it wanted to pounce on him.

Li Xuan hummed, activating the Grand Air Thunder Sound. At the same time, using the Great Rectitude on his right palm, he slapped it hard on the illusion, and it was shattered with just one slap.

At the same time, three unfamiliar memories and scenes suddenly poured deep into his mind.

Li Xuan felt a sensation of his mind about to explode, a deep furrow in his brow and a pained expression on his face. However, shortly after, he was struck with a sense of astonishment.

These three unfamiliar memories actually belonged to three different people— Zhang Zhaoyuan, Li Zhetian, and Xiahou Ying who had just died by his hand.

These memories didn’t consist of many images, merely some footage of them practicing martial arts. However, each image contained their purest, most powerful Sword Intent, and Yi of the blade.

But what exactly is going on?

While pondering, Li Xuan continued to eat. He still felt very hungry.

"What are you doing now?"

Luo Yan was puzzled. Seeing Li Xuan beginning to feast again, she shook her head, pulled out some pastries from the small Qiankun bag and threw them to Li Xuan: "I only brought some snacks for the journey."

Then she reached out to summon all the black Bamboo Swords scattered on the ground to her.

Xiahou Ying didn’t carry a Space Artifact. This Bamboo Sword, along with the bamboo shuttle, was the most valuable thing on him. The bamboo shuttle was already damaged, but this Bamboo Sword still had enough value.

Just at this moment, a crimson Thunderbolt suddenly fell from the sky.

Luo Yan’s eyes widened, immediately gripping her pair of Hongxiu Knives, the blade intent ’Light passing like a wheel, Time flying like a shuttle’ suppressed, yet ready to be released.

When the crimson Thunderbolt fell and suspended in the air, it turned out to be a red carriage.

Li Xuan recognized this carriage. It was similar in shape to the ’Red Thunder Chariot’ that Ao Shuying had once given him a ride in. Though it wasn’t the same one, the patterns were slightly different, and the ones pulling the carriage were four blue Jiao Dragons.

Standing on the chariot was a middle-aged figure dressed in a bright yellow Feiyu Suit, with an Xiuchun Knife hanging from his waist, and a stern face.

"Is this Earl Jingan?" This man saluted Li Xuan: "I’m Zuo Daoxing, the command of Xiuyiwei, sent by the emperor to escort Earl Jingan to the capital."

Zuo Daoxing then looked at the chaotic scene, his eyes cold, his words filled with apology and helplessness: "On my way here, I was hindered by a powerful man, I apologize for my tardiness."

※※※※

Just two shichen later, the ’Red Thunder Chariot’ pulled by four Jiao Dragons had already arrived at the Capital City amid a roaring sound.

As the carriage approached the city wall of Beijing, Li Xuan vaguely saw five golden dragons rising from the four directions of the city wall and from inside the palace city, looking at the carriage they were riding in.

The four Jiao Dragons pulling the chariot immediately shrank their bodies, revealing a sense of fear, but soon under the manipulation of Zuo Daoxing, they flew over the city wall and continued running towards the direction of the Forbidden City.

At this time, a special command Token on his waist flashed, and the five huge golden dragons that had been watching turned into golden dust in the sky and dispersed.

Zuo Daoxing explained at the same time: "No magical instruments are allowed to fly over the capital, but it’s an emergency now."

Li Xuan, however, concentrated his gaze towards the direction of the palace city.

There was a red and golden tower of qi rising into the sky, touching the high heavens and shaking the star river! It was like a golden pillar, standing between heaven and earth.
