Chapter 25 Trembling with Fear
"Yes, yes, yes…"
Li Si kowtowed more than ten times before standing up and supporting Meng Tian as they slowly retreated. Be it the injured soldiers or the generals, they did not have the time to care about the horses and soldiers who had been killed by the noise. They retreated carefully and fearfully.
When they came, they were so imposing and had displayed the invincible might of the empire.
However, when they returned, they were completely crippled, leaving behind hundreds of corpses. All of them had lost their morale, and most of them were heavily injured.
It even left an indelible shadow in his heart.
"Prime Minister…"
When Meng Tian walked Li Si into the carriage, she could not help but give Li Si a fist hug.
Li Si's face was pale and his body was still trembling. He looked at Meng Tian and said,""General Meng, there is no need to say anything. I will report this matter to His Majesty.”
If it was something else, he could still hide it, but he had to report this matter truthfully.
That was because…the Eastern Emperor Taiyi was too terrifying. He was so terrifying that he was far beyond what an army could deal with.
"That would be great."
Meng Tian heaved a sigh of relief. He was afraid that he would be the scapegoat.
If he were to take the blame, it would be too unfair.
Li Si did not say anything else. After getting into the carriage, the group started to drive out of Mount Li.
As he watched the Qin army leave, Donghuang's gaze shifted to Xing Hun's direction and he said in a hoarse voice,""Xing Hun, deal with these corpses. Without my permission, no one is allowed to disturb Taiyi Hall. Violators will be killed.”
After saying that, Donghuang floated into Taiyi Hall.
"Yes, Lord Donghuang."
Xing Hun smiled sinisterly and clasped his fists respectfully.
If it was the Xing Hun of the past, he would definitely not put on such a show. However, the current Xing Hun was different. As long as he could achieve his goal, he would spare no expense.
"Farewell, Lord Donghuang."
Both Great Si Ming and the disciples dropped to the ground and sent Donghuang Taiyi away.
In the past, they only knew how to respect Lord Donghuang. Today, they finally knew why they respected Lord Donghuang.
It was not until Eastern Emperor Taiyi's figure completely disappeared that Great Si Ming and the others slowly stood up.
"Lord Xing Hun…"
At this moment, Great Si Ming was supported by two disciples as he stood up. He then looked at Xing Hun and shouted.
"Don't ask or say anything. Let's go back and heal first."
Xing Hun waved his hand.
He could sense that there were many pairs of eyes hidden in Mount Li. These eyes had no intention of leaving.
"Yes, Lord Xing Hun."
Great Si Ming nodded and walked towards the direction of the Old Mother Palace with the help of a few disciples.
After Great Si Ming left, Xing Hun smiled wickedly. Since those eyes were still staring at him, he would have to put on a good show for them.
Xing Hun waved his hands, and at this moment, strands of silk flew towards the corpses of the Qin army. Very quickly, the corpses of the Qin army, as well as the dead horses, crawled up like zombies and followed behind Xing Hun, walking towards the Progenitor's Gate.
Seeing this scene, Xing Hun let out an evil smile.
What he wanted was to show off to those eyes.
On a certain building.
Wei Zhuang looked at the scene at the entrance of Taiyi Palace with an ugly expression.
From the moment Donghuang Taiyi made his move to Xing Hun's handling of the corpse, they had all taken note of it.
"Donghuang Taiyi is getting more and more interesting.”
Wei Zhuang retracted his ugly expression and instead revealed an evil smile.
"What do you mean?"
Chi Lian looked at Wei Zhuang with a charming smile.
"We all know why Ying Zheng sent Li Si to Mount Li. Now, not only is the Eastern Emperor not dead, he has even made a great breakthrough, killing or injuring Li Si's men. If Ying Zheng knew about this, what do you think he would think?”
Wei Zhuang laughed sinisterly.
"Oh?"
Chi Lian was shocked and her eyes lit up.
"One mountain can't accommodate two tigers?"
Bai Feng added.
"You're right. It's true that one mountain can't accommodate two tigers.”
Wei Zhuang laughed.
"Let's go and watch. This matter cannot be rushed…"
After Wei Zhuang finished speaking, he flung his robe and immediately turned to leave.
Bai Feng and Chi Lian followed behind.
"Hmm?"
Just as Wei Zhuang was about to leave, he shifted his gaze to the direction where Xing Hun was controlling the corpses. He actually saw Xing Hun looking back at him with an evil smile on his face.
Could it be an illusion?
Yes, it must be an illusion. How could he have discovered that he was here?
One had to know that even Donghuang did not notice that he was here.
Therefore, Wei Zhuang acted as if nothing had happened. With another flash, the three of them disappeared from the range of Mount Li.
