He still thought it was the person behind the scenes.
"Forgive you?"
"Great Yu killed the Sect Leader of Hidden Kill, now is the ti to collect interest."
"Hidden Kill!?"
Upon hearing these two words, Bu Gu’s eyes filled with even more fear, and he felt despair rise within his heart.
He originally thought it was the person behind the scenes, but did not expect to encounter Hidden Kill instead.
There is truly no hope now.
"Oh? Seems you’ve accepted your fate, it’s better this way, ti to send you on your way."
With that, spiritual power surged within, and he tossed Bu Gu into the air with one hand. The next mont, scarlet sword qi shot out.
"Bang bang bang...."
Under the sword qi, Bu Gu’s body was littered with one finger-wide holes.
Imdiately, a blood rain fell from the sky.
Such commotion instantly attracted all the martial artists in the county town, but feeling the powerful aura, each and every one hid instantly.
A Dao Realm expert!
Only the ordinary folk gazed at the sky and the raindrops transford from Bu Gu’s blood.
"Ah——"
"Murder...."
....
Screams erupted instantly, chaos ensued around the inn.
The clone, seeing it was about done, struck the barely breathing Bu Gu with a spiritual power.
"Bang!"
A flower of blood blossod in the sky.
Then flew towards the east gate, grandly leaving Fanhua County.
At the sa ti, among other counties in Molan Mansion.
Under Yuan Qing’s arrangents, several Dao Realm experts were killed in succession, but only one survived.
"That was close!"
The beautiful man wore a bright red robe, with hair disheveled and a pale face, losing the calm of old.
Only after using a secret technique did he escape to heaven.
Several days later!
The news of Hidden Kill successively slaying several Great Yu Dao Realm experts spread instantly across the Hundred Mansions.
And Duke Liu beca furious upon hearing the news.
Imperial Palace, Qixuan Hall.
Emperor Yu sat at the top, eyes closed.
A middle-aged man in a purple robe sat at the left below him, with Duke Liu beside him.
The lower seat had Liu Sheng sitting there, eyes showing so worry.
The four were all waiting for Zhan Tian.
Several Dao Realm experts of Great Yu were killed in succession, such a thing hasn’t happened for a long ti, especially with a Dao Realm fourth-tier expert involved.
Before long, a heavy footstep was heard from outside.
Soon after, Zhan Tian staggered in.
Slightly bowed to Emperor Yu, "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Yu slowly opened his eyes, expression neutral, nodded slightly, "Sit!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhan Tian bowed slightly again, then sat beside Liu Sheng.
"Be careful, Duke Qin is here, this matter might be more complicated than it seems."
Liu Sheng transmitted this ssage to him.
Zhan Tian didn’t reply, just looked at him and smiled subtly.
"Your Majesty!"
The main figure had arrived, Duke Liu imdiately rose, "This ti, Great Yu had over ten Dao Realm experts slain by Hidden Kill, sothing that hasn’t occurred in hundreds of years. This matter is an unforgivable offense by the Three Judicial Departnts, I implore Your Majesty to punish severely!"
"Heh!"
Zhan Tian coldly sneered in his heart, looked indifferently at Liu Daoxin.
He hadn’t even ward the seat, yet trouble was already stirred up against him, unable to wait even a mont.
Seems the losses this ti were quite significant too.
Emperor Yu remained silent, rely casting his gaze towards Zhan Tian.
Waiting for his explanation.
"Ah!"
Only to see Zhan Tian sigh deeply, showing fatigue, then slowly stood up, walked to the center, and bowed thrice to Emperor Yu.
This imdiately bewildered everyone present.
Not knowing what this ant.
They had expected him to argue, not to rest until face turned red with dispute.
But... so calm.
Calm to the point of being completely unlike him.
However, Liu Sheng’s corner of mouth briefly raised in a smile but quickly returned to normal.
He knew Zhan Tian’s temperant all too well.
"Your Majesty, this old minister is aged, such a significant event has caused great distress to , yet I feel powerless, so I request to resign my position as Minister of the Three Judicial Departnts."
"I also implore Your Majesty, in view of the service rendered by this old minister over the years, to allow to retire for the remainder of my years."
With these words!
The entire Qixuan Hall turned fearfully silent.
Requesting resignation from the position of Minister of the Three Judicial Departnts.
No one dared believe their ears, even Emperor Yu was greatly surprised.
But then laughed inwardly.
"You are a mainstay of Great Yu, moreover in your pri, Great Yu cannot do without you, nor can the Three Judicial Departnts."
However, Zhan Tian sighed once more, "Your Majesty, this old minister truly is aged, over these years already feeling overpowered, Hidden Kill strikes repeatedly, this old minister is helpless with sha upon Great Yu, with sha upon Your Majesty."
"These skilled experts appearing suddenly, the limited experts from the Three Judicial Departnts, it’s also understandable."
"Right? Duke Liu!"
Saying this, his gaze directed at Liu Daoxin.
And his expression warned him.
Given Great Yu’s current situation, how could they allow Zhan Tian to resign, leaving the Three Judicial Departnts without leadership.
Dao Realm eighth-tier late stage expert, not many in all Great Yu, him retiring... to enjoy the rest of his life?
Dream on!
Feeling the formidable majesty of Emperor Yu, even with inner dissatisfaction, Duke Liu dared not pursue further now.
After all, compared to the matter of Zhan Tian’s resignation, so lower-tier Dao Realm deaths were a minor issue.
"Yes, of course, Your Majesty’s words are all correct!"
Evidently, with regard to Emperor Yu’s approach, he remained dissatisfied in his heart, but in presence, could not propose otherwise, only respond like this.
"It’s not about being correct, but it’s factually true!"
Emperor Yu knew his inner dissatisfaction and then turned to look at Duke Qin.
As the head of the Three Dukes, part of the imperial family, obviously required to express his stance now.
"Indeed!"
Duke Qin slowly spoke, "Hidden Kill appears unpredictably; this matter can’t be blad on Zhan Tian. Everyone has seen the achievents of the Three Judicial Departnts over the years, and no one wishes for such incidents."
"Zhan Tian... let this matter rest here!"
In comparison with Duke Liu, he not only agreed with Emperor Yu’s words but also praised Zhan Tian, giving Emperor Yu ample face.
