Chapter 474: Chapter 475: Anger (3rd Update)
Shen Zhixing hadn’t co in person this ti, but rely sent an avatar ford from his own Soul Power.
And when his Soul Power avatar dissipated, it not only laid waste to the vicinity of the estate but also killed innocent bystanders.
The act of Shen Zhixing was an outright display of intimidation towards Lin Qian, or perhaps a warning.
“The Rebel Palace has already changed,” Yue Liqun clenched his teeth tightly, his tone filled with fury as he looked upon the nearly a hundred innocent lives lost nearby.
“The original purpose of establishing the Rebel Palace was to restore the Black Corner Country to its forr state, where five races could coexist equally, not to end up in a situation like now.”
“I’m afraid that this Shen Zhixing simply fancies himself as the new Black Corner Emperor!” Yue Liqun’s words were already saturated with rage, “If the old Palace Master were still alive, he wouldn’t have the heart to watch the Black Corner Country’s plight continue even one more day and would agree with His Majesty’s proposal.”
“This Shen Zhixing even forbade us from notifying others about the Enlistnt Wine within the Black Corner Clan, what exactly is he plotting!”
Upon hearing Yue Liqun’s complaints, Lin Qian sneered, “How co, can’t you see what kind of wishful thinking he’s playing at?”
“This man simply relishes in the chaos of the Black Corner Country, and the more madness the Black Corner Army descends into, the better, so that the people of the Black Corner Clan will harbor deeper resentnt towards the current Black Corner Emperor.”
“Wait another twenty years, and by then, the whole Black Corner Country’s patience with the Black Corner Emperor will have reached its limit. By that ti, if he, Shen Zhixing, leads the Rebel Palace to make a move, dethrones the current Emperor, he can naturalize his stance as the new King.”
Having said that, Lin Qian sneered twice and asked Yue Liqun, “Who in the Rebel Palace was this Shen Zhixing before he took over? How did he end up assuming the position?”
“The old Palace Master was both his ntor and also the ntor of my late father-in-law,” Lin Qian posed the question, and Yue Liqun hurried to explain, “The old Palace Master failed and perished from demonic intrusion during a breakthrough, and at that ti, the only one most qualified to assu the Palace Master’s position was Shen Zhixing alone.”
“Have you never suspected that the death of the old Palace Master might be related to this Shen Zhixing?” After Yue Liqun finished speaking, Lin Qian looked at him curiously, prompting the question.
Hearing Lin Qian’s words, Yue Liqun was suddenly shocked, “Impossible, Shen Zhixing and the old Palace Master had a close ntor-disciple relationship, how could he commit such a heinous act?”
“Is that so? I spoke to him very clearly about the life and death of the Southern Nine Provinces in the Southern Domain, and he didn’t even blink,” Lin Qian said as he pointed at the innocent corpses around, “Look at these people, so innocent, and he just killed them like that, to warn , to threaten !”
“Once the black blood in the Enlistnt Wine exhibits its effects, there is no cure, one can only go mad and eventually face death; I’ve already explained its severity very clearly, yet he instructed us not to publicize it.”
“Such a guy, to achieve his goal, wouldn’t hesitate to take advantage of his ntor’s secluded breakthrough to kill him, as if cultivating his sentint.”
The words from Lin Qian made Yue Liqun shudder, the more he thought about it, the more plausible it seed.
“Actually, I’ve also felt that the atmosphere inside the Rebel Palace has been off,” Yue Liqun reflected more and more on the possibility, “Many of the old guards of the Rebel Palace have been pushed out, and he has promoted a lot of his own people…”
Yue Liqun shook his head, trying to calm himself before he asked Lin Qian, “Your Majesty, what do you plan to do now?”
“The Southern Nine Provinces in the Southern Domain can’t truly last another twenty years. Taking the Black Corner Country is definitely imperative. Although I’m not so indiscriminately benevolent person, seeing the five races in the Black Corner Country live such miserable lives, beyond achieving my own goals, it’s just a small effort to rescue them from their plight,” Lin Qian said gravely to Yue Liqun, “Therefore, we’ll continue the assault on the Black Corner Country.”
“The Emperor has countless reasons compelling him to take action against the Black Corner Country. Since your father-in-law was also a disciple of the old Palace Master, it’s certain that there are those in the Rebel Palace discontent with Shen Zhixing and opposed to him.”
“The Emperor believes you undoubtedly have a way to contact them, to find them and have them help spread the word about the Enlistnt Wine.”
Hearing Lin Qian’s decision, Yue Liqun nodded slightly, but his expression was tinged with worry, “But Your Majesty, what about Shen Zhixing on his end?”
“Him?” Upon hearing Yue Liqun’s question, Lin Qian’s eyes revealed a fierce intent to kill, “Didn’t he threaten the Emperor, saying that once he dared to continue, he would have to kill the Emperor? The one who strikes first will be stronger, and the one who strikes later will suffer. Postpone the attack on the Black Corner Country just a little while and first exterminate this Rebel Palace.”
“To think he had the audacity to threaten the Emperor, to kill the Emperor!” As he spoke, the aura Lin Qian exuded made Yue Liqun involuntarily shiver with cold, “The Emperor has already given him a chance, since he doesn’t know how to appreciate it, then he shouldn’t bla the Emperor for being impolite.”
Not knowing why, but hearing Lin Qian’s words filled with murderous intent, Yue Liqun felt his blood boil instead, “Your Majesty, ever since Shen Zhixing beca the Palace Master of the Rebel Palace, he has relocated it to his Royal City.”
“Royal City?” Lin Qian beca curious, just as he was about to ask Yue Liqun to continue, his expression suddenly underwent a drastic change. He swiftly left his spot and soared quickly towards the distance.
Bursting out of the Mountain City, Lin Qian was enveloped by thundering Thunder Soul Power, and he transford into what seed like a Divine Dragon of thunder. His twelve Soul Lights fully erupted, unleashing his fastest speed.
Before long, Lin Qian saw a thick smoke billowing up ahead, the gathering place managed by Wang Gang was now a pile of ruins, and the courtyard he once resided in was gone without a trace.
Lin Qian landed in the midst of the gathering place, surrounded by flas and rolling smoke.
All he could hear were various cries and screams. He saw the bodies of Liu Fang and Barret and spotted Wang Gang, who had lost an arm, kneeling on the ground in confusion.
Lin Qian also saw Little Jiang, who was sitting on the ground, lost in shock as he stared at his deceased parents, silent and unmoving.
After a while, a series of sonic booms rang out, and it was Yue Liqun, Wang Qiongxing, and five others following closely behind.
Yue Liqun looked down at the tragic state of the gathering place in astonishnt. From the looks of it, it was probably the work of a Soul Martial Artist from the Awakening Realm who had casually launched an attack on this place.
Little Jiang saw Lin Qian’s arrival and suddenly rushed over, grasping his legs, “Your Majesty, Little Jiang begs you, please save my mom and dad, okay? Little Jiang will give his limbs back to you, I just want my parents to return.”
Lin Qian reached out and touched Little Jiang’s head, his eyes brimming with tears.
He was the Emperor of the Huaxia Empire, and until now, there was nothing he couldn’t do. Lin Qian had always taken pride in that, very proud.
But Lin Qian suddenly realized that there were things he couldn’t do, things that the Huaxia Empire couldn’t do.
The dead cannot be brought back to life.
“Shen Zhixing!” Yue Liqun’s furious roar reached Lin Qian’s ears from afar, turning his gaze instantly icy cold to the extre.
