Xu Yang turned around and glared at Empress Zhou, who dared to threaten him.
His eyes were so piercing and cold, like a king of hell staring at an insignificant human being.
Empress Zhou flinched in fright and subconsciously took a step back, then hid behind Crown Prince Qingfeng.
"No one who dares to threaten is still alive until today." Xu Yang stated in a chilling, indifferent tone.
Tang Li Xue nodded her head and smiled in approval when she heard Xu Yang’s domineering words.
She silently gave two thumbs up to Xu Yang because her really looked pretty cool right now.
She also thought approvingly that Xu Yang was truly suitable to beco the Emperor. At least, he should beco a much better ruler than the current Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty or the Crown Prince Qingfeng.
’System, I have already decided! Let’s trigger the quest for persuading Doctor Xu to beco the next Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty now!’ Tang Li Xue said to her System with her thought.
*Ding!
--------------------------------------
(Road to The Throne)
[Quest: Persuade Xu Yang and help him to beco the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty!]
[Difficulty Level: Easy to dium.]
[Reward: The reward will be calculated according to the Host’s overall contribution.]
[Ti Limit: None.]
--------------------------------------
Tang Li Xue almost got hit by the crimson sli’s attack when she read the quest given by her System.
Fortunately, she dodged the attack using [Wind Burst Step], and she also launched a counterattack using [Moonlight Flashing Edge], which managed to take down dozens of crimson slis at once.
But taking down dozens of crimson slis still ant nothing since there were thousands or even tens of thousands of crimson slis that kept rushing into the Hall of Closed Cultivation.
If all of them managed to enter the Hall of Closed Cultivation, they might even be able to drown Tang Li Xue to death with their corrosive spits.
Tang Li Xue unhappily gnashed her pearl white-teeth and secretly complained to her System in her mind: ’System, how could the difficulty level be only easy to dium?! The difficulty level should be at least hard, or nightmare difficulty, okay?! You must be trying to scam , so you can give a diocre reward, right?!’
However, her System went silent and did not bother to respond to Tang Li Xue’s unreasonable complaints.
It was clearly not the Love Counselling System, so it did not have any obligation to tell its dense host that Xu Yang had already fallen so hard with her, so he would do anything she asked him to do.
The reason why he did not imdiately agree to Tang Li Xue’s request before was because he still felt indebted to Emperor Wei, but now, that feeling of indebtedness had almost gone.
In fact, if Xu Yang did not feel indebted to Emperor Wei, he would have already killed Emperor Wei, Empress Zhou, and Crown Prince Qingfeng because they dared to threaten him just now.
But even though Xu Yang decided to spare their lives, his patience had already completely run out right now.
"Let’s go!" Xu Yang shouted as he ran swiftly toward the exit of the Hall of Closed Cultivation.
Xu Yang also brandished the ancient sword in his grasp to cut all of the crimson slis that were blocking his way!
Taoist Uncle and Tang Li Xue followed right beside Xu Yang.
Xu Yang handled the crimson slis in front of them, while Taoist Uncle and Tang Li Xue were destroying all the crimson slis that were pouncing at them from their sides and rear.
Although these crimson slis were not that strong, but their number was simply too overwhelming, like endless tides.
Not to ntion that each of them was extrely corrosive.
Destroying them without being hit by their corrosive liquid was like facing a strong army of ten thousand without being touched by any of them and splashed by their blood.
In this enclosed space without enough room to move around freely, it was almost impossible to completely avoid being splashed by their corrosive liquid, especially on their hands and feet!
Not only Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle, who were fighting with swords, even Tang Li Xue, who was fighting using her Divine Abilities and Imperial Moon Battle Styles, also got splashed by the corrosive crimson liquid, although not as much as Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle.
"Doctor Xu, if you dare to leave us here, you will regret it later!" Emperor Wei yelled angrily.
"You damn traitor! Insolent rebel! How dare you defy Your Majesty’s order!" Empress Zhou also scolded rcilessly.
"You are the Great Wei’s people, so it should be your greatest honor to sacrifice yourself for the Emperor and royal family!" Crown Prince Qingfeng still tried to persuade Xu Yang.
Xu Yang pretended not to hear them as he kept heading toward the exit.
The corrosive crimson liquid splashed on Xu Yang’s hands and feet and made loud sizzling sounds, but he forcefully gritted his teeth and withstood the pain.
Taoist Uncle was not in a much better situation than Xu Yang.
As for Tang Li Xue, only her feet and lower legs were splashed by the corrosive crimson liquid.
Tang Li Xue did not get splashed that much of the corrosive crimson liquid because Xu Yang had silently covered her, but it also made Xu Yang splattered with more corrosive liquid.
Every second felt so long for them.
Thousands of crimson slis ca at them from all sides like a surging sea of blood, threatening to swallow them whole like the mouth of a giant beast!
[Crescent Moon Cleave]—!
[Reincarnation Severing Slash]—!
Tang Li Xue and Xu Yang unleashed their AoE (Area of Effect) skill at the sa ti to repel all of the crimson slis!
The two of them were fighting with their back facing each other, as if they were trusting their life to each other, but suddenly...
"Watch out, you two—!" Taoist Uncle shouted to warn them!
BAAANG—!
Tang Li Xue used her [Energy Manipulation] to create a thick white shield, while Xu Yang raised his sword to block the incoming attack.
Despite that, both Tang Li Xue and Xu Yang were still thrown back a few ters.
Tang Li Xue and Xu Yang beca even more solemn when they saw a new creature standing in front of them.
It was a crimson sli in humanoid form that attacked them just now!
No, it was not just one... There were already several of them ford, and they were blocking the way to exit!
"So strong! And there are actually quite a lot of them!" Tang Li Xue exclaid in surprise.
"This will be even more troubleso." Xu Yang murmured solemnly.
Tang Li Xue gritted her teeth and sternly said to Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle: "Can you give ten... No, five seconds are enough!"
"No problem!" Xu Yang replied with his usual calm and cold tone, but Tang Li Xue could sense full trust behind his words.
"Leave it to us!" Taoist Uncle also answered with a nonchalant smile on his rough face. His carefree attitude, even in this situation, made Tang Li Xue calm down a lot.
Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle moved closer to Tang Li Xue in order to protect them from crimson slis and humanoid monsters.
"Co out, Dark Light—!" Tang Li Xue whispered softly.
Then the black jade bracelet she wore on her wrist transford into an anti-materiel rifle-shaped treasure!
Yes, ’Dark Light’ was the na given by Tang Li Xue to her anti-materiel rifle-shaped spirit treasure weapon.
Tang Li Xue grabbed her Dark Light tightly with both of her hands and aid toward the Hall of Closed Cultivation’s exit!
There were thousands of crimson slis densely blocking the way to the Hall of Closed Cultivation’s exit, but Tang Li Xue did not care about them at all!
She focused on infusing her powers into the ’Dark Light’ in her grasp!
[Starfall]—!
[Frost Moon]—!
[Fla of Pride]—!
[Sun Dragon Fla]—!
[Moon Shattering Blast]—!
[Space Power]—!
Since the ti was too tight, Tang Li Xue could not infuse all of her divine abilities and skills into her Dark Light, but those six different powers should be more than enough to forcefully open the way to exit!
CLANG—! CLANG—! BAAANG—!
Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle were fighting fiercely against so many crimson slis and several humanoid monsters.
Tang Li Xue took a deep breath and aid carefully...
The surrounding scenery seed to lose its color and pause for a mont.
Then Tang Li Xue pressed the trigger of Dark Light!
BOOOOOOOM—!
A huge beam of silver light was unleashed from the muzzle of the Dark Light!
Just like its na, it was truly a dazzling light that pierces through the darkness, just like a ray of hope!
All the crimson slis and humanoid monsters that blocked the way of the silver beam were obliterated in an instant!
Even those crimson slis and humanoid monsters, who were not in the way of the silver beam, had been burned by [Fla of Pride] and [Sun Dragon Fla].
Tang Li Xue herself was also shocked by the astonishing destructive power of her Dark Light.
Both Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle also did not expect that Tang Li Xue still had such a powerful trump card.
"You insolent Little Girl, why didn’t you use this earlier?" Taoist Uncle pointed his finger at Tang Li Xue and scolded her unhappily.
"This is not the ti for us to relax yet. Let’s get out of here quickly before they recover!" Xu Yang reminded coldly.
Tang Li Xue transford her Dark Light back to a black jade bracelet before she hastily followed Xu Yang and Taoist Uncle to sprint out from the Hall of Closed Cultivation.
It took quite a while for the crimson slis to recover because Tang Li Xue’s previous shot also contained the power of [Frost Moon] and [Space Power], which prevented them from recovering as rapidly as before.
The freezing power of [Frost Moon] and the destructive [Space Power] were undoubtedly quite effective against those unkillable crimson slis.
There were no corrosive crimson slis that blocked their way out this ti, so the three of them managed to run out of the Hall of Closed Cultivation safely without any obstruction.
