Ren Yunpeng murmured, suddenly turning his head to look at Dongfang Xinglan: "Where did so many corpses co from? How could the Capital have so many recently deceased bodies, and how could such a huge pit be dug without a sound!?"
Dongfang Xinglan looked up at the blood mist in the sky do, then looked north, where black mist rose and faint roars echoed within it, with huge eyes faintly visible.
"You should ask the gods above." Dongfang Xinglan's tone was indifferent: "Where did Emperor Chengtian's children go? Where did the royal family of the Imperial City disappear to? How could the corpses of the millions under Li Xuanzhen's command be insufficient? And where did the perpetually high number of disappeared people each year vanish to?"
"Roar—"
At the mont the words fell, high above the sky, the three gods, surrounded by blood-black light mist, walked through the air.
Wherever they passed, the corpses of fallen soldiers floated up and turned into blood mist, devoured by the gods with open mouths.
"Did you think I overthrew the temples across the south out of impulse?"
Dongfang Xinglan's body was surrounded by vigorous force, and the howling wind beca the ground beneath her feet, gradually lifting her high into the sky.
"Otherwise, you and I would both be feed for the gods."
Dongfang Xinglan raised her right hand, and a golden dragon soared into the sky, breaking through the blood mist, with golden light spreading across the mortal world.
"Qin… King… originally wanted… to support… you, you… but ruined our… blood sacrifice… should… die!"
"You conspired against my father, supported Dongfang Xinghe, and secretly hard the people of the world, it is you who should die!"
With just a few words, many things could be linked together.
Why did Emperor Jianing suddenly fall grievously ill in his pri? Why did Emperor Tedi support King Qin, allowing the two dragons of the Eastern Dynasty to coexist? Why did Emperor Tedi later rescind his support? Why did dark clouds cover the entire south? Why did the royal families suddenly disappear from all over? Why was such a huge pit of corpses in the Capital...?
Ren Yunpeng fell to his knees in despair, his body trembling violently.
At this mont, what filled his mind was not the court or the royal orthodox, but the truth about the gods.
Was the divine orthodoxy, believed by the dynasty for thousands of years, actually false?
This feeling of despair at the near collapse of one's faith did not linger solely in Ren Yunpeng's heart.
Hong Ying took in everyone's expressions, her head lowered, and a barely perceptible smile flashed across her eyes.
It's ti to venerate Your Highness as the sole deity.
As this thought flickered through her mind, she heard the hoarse voice of the Desolate God in the sky do: "Children... kill..."
The continuous sound of iron hooves, like thunder, resounded from all directions, as countless Yinming Soldiers charged forward fiercely, ignoring buildings, seeming to trample everything.
Hong Ying's 'expression changed,' as she thrust forward with her spear: "Slaughter these demons!"
Bai Yuhu stared blankly at the group of Yinming Soldiers, murmuring: "The dead? How could the dead... be like this, how could it be so..."
The silenced clash raged once again inside and outside of the Imperial City, in the streets and alleys, the Yinming Soldiers shrouded in death qi appeared ready to take on a hundred at a ti, the only difference being their number was not as vast as the million Qin Army.
But in battle within the Imperial City, the Qin Army could not gain the upper hand.
The Yinming Soldiers ignored walls, charging to and fro, while the Qin Army could not.
Amidst the pervasive shouts of killing, and wails, when the first person began to pray to King Qin in the sky, there was a second, a third...
At the East City Gate, Lu Jin'an stood with his hands behind his back, amidst the chaos, no one would notice that despite the fierce attack of the Yinming Soldiers, they couldn't effectively kill under the encirclent of the Qin Army in squads of 500.
Even if soone did notice, it wouldn't matter, for if anyone attempted to speak out this fact, he wouldn't mind sending the person to their demise.
"Master, are you alright?" Zhiyu asked cautiously again, holding his large hand.
"I'm alright." Lu Jin'an smiled, squeezing her little hand: "It's just a divine soul from Divine Presence."
If it were a divine soul from Divine Concealnt, he indeed couldn't contend.
After all, the Realm of Divine Concealnt was too high, but how could the Wandao Sect allow the Divine Concealnt of the Upper Realm to cause a stir?
Furthermore, the Eastern Dynasty was the territory of Xuanri Mountain, and Lu Yunzhu wouldn't let Hidden Life Mountain bring a big figure.
"Really?"
"Really."
Only then did Zhiyu completely breathe a sigh of relief, and then happily said: "Oh yes, Master is so awe-inspiring~
That phrase, 'Within three years, Asking Sword Hidden Life Mountain,' it's so awe-inspiring~"
As she spoke, Zhiyu opened her hands to gesture a large circle, seemingly to let Lu Jin'an understand how much she admired him.
Lu Jin'an smiled and gently patted her head: "Zhiyu, by cultivating well, you can be just as awe-inspiring."
"Mm-hmm!"
Zhiyu nodded vigorously: "In the future, Zhiyu will protect Master!"
"Well done." Lu Jin'an's gaze wandered, and after confirming there were no issues, he led Zhiyu into a restaurant.
In such tis, there naturally wasn't a chef to cook, so he personally went to the kitchen to make a delicious al for Zhiyu.
As Zhiyu began to eat, the blood mist swirling above the Imperial City dispersed at that mont, and Dongfang Xinglan stood alone in the high sky, surrounded by vigorous force like clouds, with a golden dragon coiling above her head.
As if declaring to all who truly was the supre ruler of the world.
Within the corpse pit, the three gods crushed countless bones, the Desolate God and Emperor Tedi seed to have lost their movent, only Emperor Kong, appeared to wish to climb out from the pit.
"Kill... kill... you..."
Dongfang Xinglan coolly raised her hand, transforming vigorous force into a giant hand, dragging the Desolate God and Emperor Tedi out of the pit, the crimson giant hand clenched, blood splattered, and fear appeared in Emperor Kong's eyes.
The three gods knelt in a row on the ground, Dongfang Xinglan landed before the three gods.
Many Yinming Soldiers also paused at this mont; everyone watched the three gods, the deities they had worshiped for generations across thousands of years...
