Capítulo 1281: Chapter 460: There’s Always a Scher Trying to Harm
This person is clearly restraining his actions, not wishing to alarm the Emperor!
“Thank you, White Tiger Marquis, for the reminder!”
Chu Xisheng’s gaze is cold as ice: “This person will not have the opportunity to leave here alive.”
How could he allow this person to continue living!
Chu Xisheng’s Heavenly Annihilation Rule is slicing into Zhu Hongyi’s body with each stroke of his long blade, annihilating any possibility of ‘Nirvana’ for the opponent.
He swings his twin blades, capable of performing a thousand slashes within a single breath.
Out of a thousand slashes, nine hundred make Zhu Hongyi bleed from every orifice, causing internal injuries; while a hundred can directly strike Zhu Hongyi’s body, infusing his Heavenly Punishnt Martial Intent into Zhu Hongyi.
Just a breath later, the pair of thirty-zhang flaming wings behind Zhu Hongyi can no longer hold up, beginning to collapse and disperse.
Zhu Hongyi’s eyes threaten to burst: “Chu Xisheng, you dare to kill an imperial officer?”
Although he has been stripped of his Vermilion Bird Marquis title and exiled to the Northern Ice State, he is still employed by the Imperial Family as a Second Grade Deputy Commander of the Imperial Guards, serving in the Ice State Army.
These words out of Zhu Hongyi’s mouth feel laughable even to himself.
But he’s truly unwilling, unwilling to die here!
Chu Xisheng laughs freely: “I’ve already slain over two hundred imperial officers in the Ice State, what difference does one more make? Besides, Zhu Hongyi of Heaven Burning should be serving at the Northern Army, why to die in Luo Province?”
It’s said that as the Heavenly Jinyi Guards Wanhu, he should be performing his duties at You State Office.
Right now, he’s not carrying out official duties, not staying at the Police Pool of Blood’s office, running to Luo Province.
However, it is common for Police Pool of Blood to be on assignnt, crossing regions to pursue cases.
And the Zhu Hongyi before him has been clearly ordered to be exiled to the army, not allowed to leave for a hundred years!
“You scoundrel!”
Zhu Hongyi’s gaze is blood-red and desperate as he looks at Chu Xisheng: “Lawless, impudent villain defying the public laws!”
This very person has slain dozens of arrest officers from Vermilion Bird Hall in East State, even pressured the court to revoke his official post.
Just then, the already broken flaming wings behind Zhu Hongyi suddenly disintegrate.
Zhu Hongyi realizes the severity, an imnse sense of emptiness arises in his mind, nearly consuming his entire spirit.
Chu Xisheng’s blade arrives as anticipated, the Mirror Flower Water Moon Blade slicing off Zhu Hongyi’s head.
Holding his twin blades afterward, Chu Xisheng looks at Zhu Hongyi’s head and body burning into flas with a cold and mockingly expression.
“Speaking of impudence, you’re much filthier than —”
Had it not been for the forr Governor of Xiushui County attempting shady dealings, corruptly seeking personal gain, how wouldn’t he have slain dozens of arrest officers in East State?
If the Six Gates had strictly examined the case back then, thoroughly investigated, instead of colluding with the Governor of Xiushui County and local elites, how would today’s situation co to pass?
From a distance, the White Tiger Marquis witnesses this scene, with a complexion exceedingly complex.
After all, having been colleagues for many years, internally, it’s hard not to be affected.
※※※※
Simultaneously, nine thousand miles to the north, within Wang’an Imperial City’s palace, Emperor Jianyuan suddenly tightens his brows.
He feels uneasy, sensing a disturbance with the twelve Red Dragon Pillars buried deep beneath the palace. But when he carefully feels, trying to trace the source.
The twelve Dragon Souls still resist him as always, though under the suppression of the Forbidden Technique and Divine Contract, have no choice but to submit to him, under his control.
Emperor Jianyuan uses a whole breath but still can’t grasp any clues.
Today’s resistance of these twelve Dragon Souls is slightly stronger than usual.
Emperor Jianyuan further sends his Thought down, probing to the core of this ‘Twelve Duteen Divine Dragon National Array’.
The Forbidden Technique here remains tightly coherent, steadfastly immovable.
At the very center, the fragnts of the Divine Contract Sky Tablet maintaining the bloodline divine contract between the Daning Royal Family and Red Dragon Lineage also exhibit no anomaly, emitting a layer of cool fluorescence.
Emperor Jianyuan deepens his frown, pondering the cause of this?
He senses so of the dragon energy gathered here is indeed missing, but where has it gone?
At this mont, standing below the steps, the Heavenly Jinyi Guards Commander Xiaao Hongchen, submitting reports, has already perceived Emperor Jianyuan’s oddity.
The Emperor appears to have drifted off—
He cautiously inquires: “Your Majesty?”
Emperor Jianyuan regains his composure, glances at Xiaao Hongchen: “I’m listening! Soon, personally visit Jin State, wield my Emperor’s Sword! Inform Qin Sheng that I’ve made arrangents with Formless Divine Sect regarding personnel in You, Bing, Jue, and Extre Four States.
Make sure he returns to Ice State soon, being General of Northern Peace yet unable to fulfill his duties, what does this resemble?”
This is another matter enraging him.
Since the battle on Grey Wolf Plain, General Qin Sheng of Northern Peace fled southward.
Qin Sheng doesn’t even dare remain in You State, fleeing all the way to Dragon Mountain County in Jin State.
Emperor Jianyuan even understands that person’s fear.
If he continues in You State, he might be reckoned by Formless Divine Sect, removed under their guise.
Yet now, he’s already settled terms with Formless Divine Sect, but Qin Sheng remains unmoving in Jin State, which irritates him.
Currently, Qin Sheng has been stripped of nearly half his power, yet still oversees military affairs in Bing and Extre States, commanding Northern Peace Army.
With him not in Ice State, how can the court restrain Formless Divine Sect?
Should Formless Divine Sect be allowed to infiltrate and seize control over three million border troops there?
Emperor Jianyuan harbors disdain inwardly, wanting nothing more than to strip him of his post, relocate him to the Southern Border.
This Qin Sheng, not to ntion Dominating Martial King, even his elder brother is far inferior.
But he can only bear this now.
Without Qin Sheng, without the Tieshan Qin Family, he is more incapable of checking Formless Divine Sect.
