My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

Just a second ago, he was on the brink of death, and the next, he came back to life.

“What is going on?”

“What happened to me?”

Li Chengqian muttered to himself in disbelief.

He had just thought about leaving Chang’an City, and he nearly died as a result.

If it weren’t for Lu Qianjun’s timely intervention, Li Chengqian really would have thought he might have already died.

Looking back on it now, Li Chengqian still felt a bit of fear.

Hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Lu Qianjun shook his head at the right time, his eyes filled with a bit of bewilderment and confusion.

“Your Highness, I don’t know either,” he said.

“It seems we can’t leave Chang’an City. As soon as we step out of the boundary of Chang’an City—no, in just a few breaths’ time—we will rapidly decay and die.”

Lu Qianjun said this, seemingly very shocked.

But his tone was surprisingly calm.

After hearing Lu Qianjun’s words, Li Chengqian fell silent once more.

He found himself doubting life.

After a while.

Li Chengqian finally turned his trembling gaze to Lu Qianjun, “What did you say??”

“We can’t leave Chang’an City???”

“We have been tossed about by the chaotic currents of the great way, wandering in this world for who knows how many years, and now that we have finally returned to the human world, you are telling me we can’t leave Chang’an City??”

Li Chengqian’s tone was urgent, but it lacked any significant irritation or anger.

It was filled with nothing but disbelief.

Hearing Li Chengqian’s words, Lu Qianjun didn’t know what to reply with.

After all, Li Chengqian was the Crown Prince, and no matter what, Lu Qianjun needed to respond.

After thinking about it.

He replied, “Your Highness, perhaps we should ask Wan Jiang or Feng Wang to give it a try?”

“We can’t leave Chang’an City, but maybe it’s just because we’re too weak. Perhaps they can leave Chang’an City.”

As Lu Qianjun finished speaking,

Li Chengqian nodded slightly and quickly made his way toward the direction of the Capital city of Chang’an, but the moment he took a step and his body had just begun to move,

Li Chengqian felt something again and turned his head slightly to look towards the distance outside of Chang’an.

At that time,

every single Sky-Man, including Zhou Qingxu, was examining him.

Li Chengqian found their gazes uncomfortable.

If it were any other time, Li Chengqian would have taught them a lesson regardless, to let them know that in his presence, they need to bow their heads respectfully.

The Crown Prince of Great Tang’s dignity was not to be challenged.

But now,

Li Chengqian himself could not leave Chang’an City, so naturally, he had no recourse against Zhou Qingxu and the others, and could only return their looks with a queer expression on his face.

After scanning the crowd,

Li Chengqian took a deep breath to suppress the discomfort in his heart, and quickly headed into Chang’an City.

The gazes of the people around him were no longer the most important thing to Li Chengqian at this moment.

The most important task now was to find some powerful figures to see if they could leave Chang’an City.

If they all couldn’t leave Chang’an City directly,

then it would truly be the end.

Thinking this, Li Chengqian’s mood became heavier.

As Li Chengqian was making his way to the Imperial Palace, a figure in black clothes with somewhat disheveled hair and annoyed eyes beneath a ferocious mask approached slowly from the distance.

The Great Tang Emperor stepped out, the corner of his mouth still stained with a trace of blood.

Though the Great Tang Emperor had bled, he did not seem to be badly wounded, at most causing his complexion to turn a bit paler.

When the Great Tang Emperor returned to the place where Li Chengqian had just stood, he frowned slightly.

“This aura.”

“Is it…”

The Great Tang Emperor murmured to himself, then his gaze fell again upon Zhou Qingxu.

He asked,

“Who was the person just now who appeared here?”

Only after the Great Tang Emperor asked did Zhou Qingxu come back to his senses from his shock.

Zhou Qingxu himself had been astonished by Li Chengqian’s actions and manner.

Clearly, Li Chengqian’s cultivation strength was not low.

Even Zhou Qingxu himself could not help but involuntarily slow his breathing when facing Li Chengqian.

Zhou Qingxu thought that the man who ran out from within Chang’an City, Li Chengqian, must be no ordinary individual.

It was very possible that he was one of those peculiar beings that had appeared near Great Zhou at Mount Five Daos Secret Realm.

Although Zhou Qingxu did not enter Mount Five Daos, he knew that most of the existence within were of a certain nature.

Mount Five Daos, which had been in existence for who knows how many years, still had living people in it.

At the beginning, Zhou Qingxu had wanted to follow the group of Sky-Men into Mount Five Daos Secret Realm to take a good look, to investigate and see if there was an opportunity to gain some fortunes from within the Secret Realm.

But,

before Zhou Qingxu could implement that idea, the Great Tang Emperor had already issued an order.

No one was allowed to enter Mount Five Daos Secret Realm.

The Great Tang Emperor was very cautious at that time.

He did not reveal much about the reason,

just saying one thing.

There are living people within Mount Five Daos Secret Realm.

In that age-old Mount Five Daos Secret Realm, there are living people.

And this suddenly appearing Chang’an City,

must certainly not be a creation of this era.

Could it be that Li Chengqian who just appeared, is someone who has lived for who knows how many years?

At this thought,

Zhou Qingxu couldn’t help but feel his scalp tingle and was engulfed in deep shock.

At the same time,

Zhou Qingxu initially wanted to flee, but the Great Tang Emperor had ordered him to stay put and not allow anyone to enter Chang’an City.
