"Boom!"
The iron halberd landed on Chu Sheng's silver arm, the terrifying divine power impacting, distorting the surrounding void like water, and layers of colorless divine power swept outwards.
With a "boom," within a thousand miles around the two, a wave of blood surged, and countless beings were instantly killed.
The surviving beings were terrified and fled the area, no longer daring to watch, not even daring to look back.
The divine power dissipated, and the two stood opposite each other across a thousand feet, the void in between gradually repairing itself.
"Did you come from the Human Realm?"
Chu Sheng's expression turned serious. The Dian Wei before him was different from anyone he had encountered before, much like Wang Zhuo. His blood energy was profound, his divine power formidable, and in the Supreme realm, he was no ordinary person.
However, how could he stand before Chu Sheng!
Wang Zhuo must die!
The Dian Wei before him must also die!
"What is the Human Realm? Behold my halberd!"
Dian Wei raised his iron halberd, roaring at Chu Sheng.
...
Late November, Thirty-ninth Year of the Great Han Dynasty.
Qing Xuan Immortal Dynasty, Sacred Emperor City.
The sky was dim, with little rain.
On the wet ground, dozens of figures flashed past. They were all elite soldiers of the Imperial Guard, replacing the original guards and securing the entrance to the An Tai Palace.
"Thump, thump, thump~~"
At this moment, on the vast square two thousand feet away from the An Tai Palace gate, civil and military officials in official robes stood in succession, their faces solemn as they awaited the morning court.
"Did you see King Sheng Xiao?"
King Zun Shuo, Qing Yu, scanned the surroundings, not seeing the figure of King Sheng Xiao, Qing Han, and felt a deep sense of unease.
"I heard that he was summoned into the palace by the Immortal Emperor early this morning. Your Highness, this old man feels that the Immortal Emperor's final moments are only two or three days away!"
Kuai Tong said in a low voice.
"Are General Lan and General Qing ready?"
Qing Yu glanced at Qing Ji, who was surrounded by several officials in the distance.
"Your Highness, rest assured, we will definitely eliminate King Zun Ye this time!"
"Dong~~~"
A bell rang, and a military general appeared on the square, walking with a powerful stride, imposing and extraordinary.
"At the first quarter of Chen, all kings enter the palace!"
As the words fell, King Zun Ye, Qing Ji, greeted the surrounding officials and headed towards the imperial palace.
"Your Highness, rest assured, you go boldly!"
Kuai Tong whispered. The morning court of the Qing Xuan Immortal Dynasty had staggered entry times for the princes and officials into the palace, with a gap of about half an hour.
"Your Highness, the matter is settled!"
When Qing Yu approached Prime Minister Cui Yangwen, Cui Yangwen urgently transmitted his voice.
Qing Yu calmly followed Qing Ji.
"Fifth brother, you haven't led troops at the border for a year, and you seem to have aged considerably. It's better to lead troops outside. This place isn't suitable for you. Look at this palace, it's always so dim and oppressive!"
Qing Ji glanced at Qing Yu, who had caught up, and said softly.
"What are you saying, fourth brother? We can only obey the Immortal Emperor's decree. Recently, the Heng Tian Immortal Dynasty has been sharpening its swords, and disaster may be imminent. Fourth brother should worry about this matter!"
Qing Yu said coldly.
The two crossed the square, passed a palace gate, and continued inward. After about sixteen hundred feet, passing through two more palace gates, they arrived at the An Tai Gate.
"Why are there so few Imperial Guards here? They are becoming more and more presumptuous!"
Qing Ji scanned around and reprimanded.
Qing Yu looked up and saw a command flag flying on the city tower, and his heart felt at ease.
"Fourth brother, why argue with them? Let's hurry. There might be some troublesome matters today, and we'll need fourth brother to handle them!"
Qing Yu said faintly and walked into the An Tai Gate.
"Hmph!"
Qing Ji snorted coldly, his brows furrowed. After watching for a while, he walked towards the palace gate.
When he entered the palace gate and walked about a hundred paces further, the palace gate suddenly closed.
"Weng~~~"
Layers of formations rose, instantly forming dozens of defenses, completely enveloping the square of about several hundred feet!
"By order of the Immortal Emperor, apprehend the traitorous minister Qing Ji!"
"Kill!"
Qing Hao Cang stepped out, his long spear sweeping across dozens of feet, stirring up countless gusts of wind.
"Qing Hao Cang, how dare you!!"
Qing Ji was instantly shocked. Qing Hao Cang's sudden appearance here, how could he not understand the situation?
"Qing Yu, this is rebellion, you are ruining our country!!"
Boom!
A roar shook the entire imperial palace, with layers of dust and debris bombarding the defensive formations.
"Who?"
"Where did that explosion come from?"
The Immortal Emperor's sleeping quarters in the imperial palace.
The Qing Xuan Immortal Emperor was barely holding on, his eyes opening and closing intermittently.
King Sheng Xiao, Qing Han, took out the imperial decree and carefully unfolded it. There were no characters on it, only a royal seal.
He glanced at the Immortal Emperor, who was about to abdicate, and picked up the imperial brush beside him.
Suddenly, a tremor occurred, and even the dying Immortal Emperor opened his eyes. A dim divine light flickered in his pupils, then quickly dissipated, his pupils widening.
His body weakly slumped down!
"Brother!"
Qing Han turned his head and saw that the Immortal Emperor had passed away, his body falling onto the dragon couch. One hand pointed forcefully towards the direction of the roaring sound.
"Not good!"
Si Kong Heng Feizhou, who was waiting outside, changed his expression. The officials of Qing Ji's faction were all uneasy.
"Execute King Zun Ye!"
Boom!
Lan Yu stepped out from the city tower, his spear pressing against Qing Ji's long sword. The collision of the two divine powers made Qing Ji's face show shock. The Lan Yu before him contained terrifying energy, and even he, at the Minor Heavenly Venerable realm, was powerless to resist. Suzhou Novel Network
With a roar, his body flew backward!
"Good spear technique!"
Qing Yu shouted with joy, drawing his bow and shooting an arrow, which accurately pierced Qing Ji's heart.
Boom!
Qing Yu stepped forward and directly stomped on Qing Ji's head, a slight smile curling his lips: "Fourth brother, forgive me, but I cannot yield!"
Qing Yu stomped and shattered Qing Ji's head. At this moment, the formation was shattered by immense force. King Sheng Xiao Qing Han from the north descended from the sky, while the officials led by Si Kong Heng Feizhou from the south also rushed into the An Tai Gate.
Countless beings watched this scene in shock and fear. King Zun Shuo Qing Yu stood on the corpse of King Zun Ye Qing Ji, the bright red blood dyeing the square of the An Tai Gate.
"King Zun Ye Qing Ji assassinated King Zun Shuo Qing Yu. Fortunately, we fought to defend him and killed Qing Ji!"
Qing Hao Cang raised his arm and shouted, directly pinning the blame on Qing Ji. The deceased Qing Ji could not retort, and the other officials dared not speak out in anger.
The scene before them was clear, but what could they do?
"Guards!"
Lan Yu shouted, "Arrest the rebels of King Zun Ye Qing Ji and throw them all into prison to await the Immortal Emperor's judgment!"
Boom!
The Imperial Guards around the city gate immediately stepped forward, apprehending Si Kong Heng Feizhou and all of King Zun Ye Qing Ji's faction, and dragging them into prison.
