In the end.
After Little Qing finished eating the roast goose, Li Qinghou gestured for her to let the teary-eyed Liyue go.
"My Goose!"
Under the moonlight, Liyue, who was heading towards the capital, wanted to cry but had no tears.
Having her favorite food snatched away, Liyue expressed that she had suffered a heavy blow.
"Who exactly are these two?”
After reminiscing about the roast goose she had lost in her heart, Liyue's expression also became solemn.
In her opinion, Qing Zhu's cultivation was at least at the middle stage of the Ascension realm.
Moreover, he had comprehended the great success of sword essence at the same age as him. His movement technique was also ridiculously strong.
Such a prodigy must have come from a large faction with an extremely deep foundation.
Even such a prodigy was nothing more than a servant girl in front of the young master.
"Terrifying."
Thinking of this, Liyue felt some lingering fear.
Fortunately, this young master was not a lustful person. Otherwise, he would not be able to leave today.
Liyue was still confident in her looks.
"When His Majesty gave me this mission, there was no one else present except Sister Ziyan.”
"Then how did this news leak out?”
She thought back to how Li Qinghou had been able to tell her why she was here, and how he had even pointed out that it was the empress who had asked her to come.
Liyue was thinking about how this news was leaked.
Of course.
She did not suspect Lin Ziyan. After all, she was the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
He was one of the most trusted people of His Majesty.
"Forget it."
"It's best to return to the capital as soon as possible and report this matter to His Majesty.”
Retracting her thoughts, Liyue did not delay any longer and leaped towards the capital.
...
......
The next day.
Linjiang, King Qin's Residence.
"Your Highness."
"The three All Creations who went to kill the eavesdropper last night are all dead.”Behind the king of Qin, an ascendance-level elder in black reported respectfully.
"Dead?"
When the King of Qin heard this, his expression immediately turned ugly, and a cold glint flashed across his eyes.
Three All Creations chasing after a peak Finger Profound expert, and all of them died?
"This morning, my men found their bodies in Nanli.”
The black-robed elder nodded slightly and said in a deep voice,""When I heard the news, I personally rushed over to take a look.”
"This old man discovered that all three of them were killed by a single sword.”
"Even after a night, there is still an extremely strong sword intent aura left behind. The murderer must be a sword cultivator who has completed his sword intent and his cultivation level is not lower than the Immortal Realm.”
These words made the King of Qin's already embarrassed expression gradually turn gloomy.
Mastery of sword intent, ascendance-level.
Regardless of which one of these two was mentioned, it was a huge unstable factor for him.
It was even more so when the two combined.
"Did the person who eavesdropped find any clues?”
Qin Wang stood with his hands behind his back and asked the old man coldly.
"Your Highness."
"When that person fought with my men last night, there was a trace of coldness in the sword qi. He should be from the Okra Sword Sect, and his cultivation is at the peak of the Finger Profound realm.”
" And to be able to escape to Nanli under the pursuit of three All Creations, she should be the strongest of the younger generation of the Okra Sword Sect, the next successor of the Okra Sword Sect, Liyue.”
The old man's expression was slightly cold as he respectfully replied.
In the Autumn Sunflower Sword Sect, whether it was sword Qi or sword intent, they were all wrapped in a wisp of cold air.
Therefore, it was easy to identify.
Generally speaking, there would not be a mistake.
Moreover, the Okra Sword Sect had already sided with the empress and was working under her.
Under such circumstances, Liyue's identity was even easier to guess.
"Humph!"
"What a waste. Three All Creations couldn't even take her down in Linjiang, and she even escaped to Nanli.”
Qin Wang snorted coldly, his mood exceptionally bad.
Liyue's appearance not only ruined what he had almost done last night.
Now that he had received the news that he wanted to recruit people from the martial world to rebel, he went back to report to the empress.
"It's my fault."
The black-robed elder did not refute.
He also felt that the three people under him were very useless, but they couldn't even keep the other party.
"We can't wait anymore."
Qin Wang's face was gloomy. As his thoughts spun, he said coldly,"Those people didn't say anything last night, right?”
To the people of the various sects and aristocratic families.
He believed that the other party would not dare to say anything. After all, Lin Chuan was his territory.
Even if they were not in Linchuan, if the other party dared to say anything…
He did not mind having one or two less top sects and aristocratic families in the Great Zhou's martial arts world.
"No, I haven't."
"After these people left, they were all extremely afraid of what happened last night.”
The King of Qin nodded slightly.
Then, he continued,"I can't wait."”
"Today, after we exterminate the remaining members of the Heavenly Lotus Cult, we will return that Second Brother Wang's innocence.”
From the King of Qin's point of view, since he wanted to rebel, he could no longer hide it.
In that case, he might as well attack directly.
Before the empress could react, he had caught her off guard.
Prince Li of the Southern Border was a crucial part of the King of Qin's plan.
Only Prince Li rebelled first and fought with the empress until both sides suffered heavy losses.
Only then would his chances be greater.
Otherwise, even if he had a large number of martial artists loyal to him, he would not have the confidence.
To be able to defeat King Li head-on.
"Oh, right."
"After the remnants of the Heavenly Lotus Cult were destroyed, you took control of those people from last night.”
"If the other party is still unwilling to pledge allegiance to this king.”
At this point, Qin Wang's eyes suddenly flashed with a cold killing intent. He said in a cold tone,"Then, kill them all."
Although these sects and aristocratic families had a deep foundation, they were not weak.
However, in his opinion, they were just ordinary people.
It didn't affect him at all.
"Here."
The black-robed elder immediately acknowledged the order respectfully.
......
......
Outside Linjiang City, the Heavenly Lotus Cult's encampment.
At this moment.
The outside of the valley was already filled with people, almost surrounding the entire valley until not even water could leak out.
Most of these martial artists were below the grandmaster level.
Only a small number of martial artists had reached the Grandmaster Realm, the Vajra Realm, and above the Finger Arcane Realm.
That was even rarer.
At the very most, there were only around thirty finger profound realm cultivators here.
The number of martial artists here was almost a quarter of the entire Great Zhou martial arts world.
"Brother, you're only at the Ninth Stage Realm and have just entered the Martial Dao. How dare you come here?”
In the crowd, many people were whispering while waiting for Qin Wang to appear.
"So what if he's rank-nine?"
"Humph!"
"Everyone from the Heavenly Lotus Cult can be killed.”
The burly man who was asked widened his eyes and said righteously.
"Alright."
"This brother is indeed a chivalrous man. Even if the danger ahead is dangerous and you will die here if you are not careful, you will still kill your way into the valley and eliminate the evil for the people.”
After the brawny man finished speaking, someone exclaimed in admiration.
There were indeed quite a few cheers.
Under the summons of the King of Qin, more than half of the martial artists came for benefits.
However, there were also some true chivalrous people who came with the intention of eliminating the evil of the Heavenly Lotus Cult.
However…
There were very few people like this.
The brawny man who had been so righteous just now was obviously not one of them.
"Tsk."
"If it wasn't for the fact that the King of Qin promised to give everyone a share, I wouldn't have come here.”
When the burly man heard the cheers, he cupped his hands toward the many martial artists with a smile on his face. At first glance, he looked like a chivalrous person when he laughed.?
However, the brawny man was very disdainful about this.
"If we fight later, I have to hide behind so that I won't be hacked to death.”
As countless warriors waited, Qin Wang's figure finally appeared.
The moment the King of Qin appeared, the noisy martial artists.
He instantly quieted down and looked at the king of Qin, waiting for his orders.
"Everyone."
"The Heavenly Lotus Cult has been wreaking havoc for thousands of years. The various Dynasties have joined forces to kill them many times, but without exception, there are survivors who escape every time.”
Qin Wang looked at the numerous warriors in front of him and said loudly.
His voice spread throughout the valley with the support of his thick zhenqi.
This also made countless martial artists 'hearts tremble slightly.
A thought appeared in everyone's mind: Qin Wang's cultivation was unfathomable.
"Now."
"When the Great Zhou Empress ascended the throne, the situation in the Great Zhou was in turmoil. The remnants of the Heavenly Lotus Cult appeared at this time.”
"They want to invade the Great Zhou Empire and poison the people of the Great Zhou when the situation is chaotic.”
"Are you all willing?"
Qin Wang's gaze swept across the countless martial artists present. His voice was high and his tone was sullen.
Before he said that, he even mentioned the Water Empress. This was an insignificant sentence.
It made countless warriors present think that it was because of the Empress's incompetence that the current situation of the Great Zhou had become so unstable.
"Your Highness, give the order."
"Let us charge in and wipe out the remaining members of the Heavenly Lotus Society.”
"That's right, Your Highness. The saber in my hand is already thirsty and thirsty. I've long wanted to drink the blood of the remaining members of the Heavenly Lotus Society.”
Under Qin Wang's words, the blood in the hearts of countless martial artists was mobilized.
They all shouted for the King of Qin to give the order and directly charged in.
"Ascension."
Just as countless martial artists were extremely excited and wished they could kill him directly...
A woman in white stood on a pine tree with a long sword in her hand. She looked at the king of Qin calmly.
With just a glance, he revealed Qin Wang's cultivation.
Immediately, the woman retracted her gaze. There was not even a trace of fluctuation in her eyes.
It was as if…
Qin Wang's ascendance-level cultivation was not even worth mentioning in front of her.
On the other side.
A black-robed youth was carrying a long saber.
His gaze was fixed on the valley in front of him. He grinned and laughed maniacally,"I wonder if the All Creations of the Heavenly Lotus Cult can block my blade."
