Looking at the golden dragon that had fled in defeat and the purple hand that was attacking the sea of blood, everyone in Zhengyang City heaved a sigh of relief.
The Empress came out of seclusion and rushed to West Qin to help the old sword immortal.
Many people had doubts in their hearts. They didn’t know if the other party had forcefully broken through before reaching perfection.
Such situations were sometimes not only useless, but even harmful.
But now, it seemed that even though the time taken for the Empress to come out of seclusion exceeded many people’s expectations, not only was her strength not affected, but she had also improved further. She was even stronger than before.
The Chu Emperor Cheng Hui, who was once on par with him, was now unable to block his sharpness.
On the day that the Great Emperor of Western Qin, Li Ce, had fallen, the Zhou Emperor, Xu Ruotong, was the number one expert among the three great empires in the mortal world.
Even if the Qin Emperor Li Ce revived, he might not be a match for him.
The young lady was challenging one of the oldest experts in the world, Blood River Patriarch, who had been famous for more than a thousand years.
When the West Qin people saw this scene, their emotions became complicated again.
After today’s trial, how would Western Qin maintain its relationship with such a powerful enemy?
Mister Tianji’s voice came out from the Innate Eight Trigrams Diagram that was holding up the Blood Sea, “”The younger generation is formidable.”
“Yun Jichong didn’t dote on you for nothing.” A strange laugh rang out from the sea of blood.
The Empress could kill the Chu Emperor and fight to the end.
Today, the Chu Emperor had escaped from the neutral ground and returned to the South Chu. With the support of the Dragon Qi of All Living Beings of the South Chu, he was sitting on the home ground. If the Empress wanted to kill him in an away game, the difficulty would be much higher.
However, if the sky above Zheng Yang City turned into a chaotic battle between the seven magnates, the final outcome would be unpredictable.
With the Empress and Mister Tianji around, the Qin Defender side had the upper hand and turned the situation around.
However, the result of the bloody battle was that the old sword immortal and Abbot Puhui, who were heavily injured, were in a worrisome situation.
Even if the Qin Defenders won, the two of them might have to sacrifice their lives.
For the sake of safety, the Empress only wished to repel Emperor Chu,
Patriarch Blood River, and the others.
After the Chu Emperor left, Patriarch Blood River faced the Empress of Eastern Zhou and Mister Tianji alone. He didn’t waste any more time and immediately left.
Earlier, the Ancient Gods Clan Leader Jiang Yi was confronting the old sword immortal and Reverend Puhui of the western paradise. When he saw that the Chu Emperor was defeated, he didn’t wait for the empress and Patriarch Blood River to act before retreating as well.
Zheng Yang City, which had been in danger due to the dark clouds, finally settled down.
Mister Revelation did not stop. He immediately said to the old Sword
Immortal, the Empress, and Abbot Puhui, ‘”‘ I need to return to Xian Tian
Palace. We will talk about the rest later. ‘
“I’ll have to trouble Xiantian to pay attention to Emperor Chu.” The old Sword Immortal nodded.
“I understand. Don’t worry, Elder Yun.” Mister Tianji took a step forward and disappeared from the sky above Zheng Yang City. The huge Innate Eight Trigrams also disappeared.
“Elder Yun, I’m leaving too,” said the Empress.
The Blood River Patriarch, Xue Cangqiong, was known as the Bloodstained Firmament. He did not get this title for nothing.
Even though Blood River Ancestor would not normally bully the weak, he had to be wary of this.
If the other party really made a move, Queen would either take revenge on
Blood River Inheritance or intercept Blood River Patriarch.
Of course, there was also the possibility of Blood River Patriarch returning to Western Qin.
And the Queen’s whereabouts were erratic, which was beneficial for deterring the opponent from acting rashly.
“I will go back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with you.” The old sword immortal nodded. After that, he turned to Reverend Puhui of the western paradise and spoke, “What Ruotong said just now is exactly what I was thinking. The Heavenly Demon Tribulation is about to reappear, and we all need to study it carefully. After Master’s injuries have recovered, please go to the Heavenly River. For now, I will return to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with Ruotong.”
The abbot of the western paradise pressed his palms together.”This Penniless
Monk will take care, Elder Yun.”
On Zheng Yang City, Li Yuanbang and the other West Qin experts bowed to the old sword immortal. ‘”‘Thank you, Senior, for upholding justice for my West Qin.”
The old sword immortal’s words were actually meant to remind Abbot Puhui.
The West Qin Great Emperor had fallen, and the West Qin Empire was almost divided up by external enemies. This was the time when it was at its weakest due to internal and external troubles.
Under such circumstances, it was actually the western paradise which was located in the western Qin region that would have the chance to gain benefits.
Not only would it be difficult for Western Qin to continue suppressing the Buddhist Sect, the western paradise might even turn the tables.
Even though Reverend Puhui was heavily injured, the western paradise still had the initiative.
The old sword immortal clearly did not wish for both sides to continue fighting each other.
Ye Tianmo was still a threat.
This time, he paid the price of the West Qin Great Emperor’s death, the old sword immortal himself, and Abbot Puhui’s heavy injuries in exchange for the Heavenly Demon’s old injuries to relapse and temporarily retreat.
However, the situation was different from the great war more than a hundred years ago.
The otherworldly demons might make a comeback soon.
Regardless of whether it was Western Qin or the western paradise, they were both extremely weak right now and it wasn’t suitable for them to start a conflict.
Abbot Puhui clearly understood this point and tacitly agreed with the old sword immortal’s opinion.
After all, other than the West Qin Empire that had always been in love with each other, the western paradise also had other enemies.
For example, the lineage of the Bitter Sea Demonic Buddha.
Compared to Western Qin, that was the greatest enemy of the western paradise.
Recentlv. the lineage of the Miserv Sea Demonic Buddha had been extremelv low-key and quiet.
However, the old sword immortal and Abbot Puhui knew that the sea of bitterness was about to rise again.
The reason was none other than the fact that the Supreme Martial Artist had come out of seclusion!
Since the Supremacy of the Mortal World had come out of seclusion, the Heavenly Buddha outside the Mortal World could not act rashly.
The lineage of the Misery Sea Demonic Buddha had someone to back them up, so they no longer had to hide like before.
It was fine if they didn’t know that the Supreme Martial Artist had already come out of seclusion. As long as they knew, they would definitely have the confidence to stir up trouble again.
Right now, Reverend Puhui was heavily injured in the western paradise, they had no choice but to guard against this.
Right now, although this was the best opportunity for the western paradise to expand its influence in Western Qin, they had no choice but to take it slow and guard against other external threats.
Although the people of Western Qin didn’t know about the matter of the sovereign coming out of seclusion, they could hear the old sword immortal’s words of advice to the western paradise. When they heard Reverend Puhui’s agreement, their hearts instantly calmed down.
After everyone thanked the old sword immortal, they looked at the Empress of Dong Zhou. Although their emotions were still complicated, everyone’s expression had returned to normal. They bowed to the Empress.”Thank you for your help.”
As for the territory occupied by the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, there was naturally nothing to mention at the moment.
The Empress peeled a hazelnut and threw the nut into her mouth. She completely ignored the West Qin people and left with Uncle Cheng and the old sword immortal.
Li Yuanbang’s expression remained the same as he turned to bow to Abbot Pu
Hui. ‘”‘This is a troubled time. Please take care of me, Master.’
Abbot Puhui of the western paradise spoke, ” Your highness is too polite. Everyone in our temple will do our best to protect the well-being of the people of West Qin. ‘
“Master is merciful. Thank you.” Li Yuanbang turned to look at the group of
Heavenly River disciples who stayed in Zheng Yang City. “”Seniors of the
Heavenly River, please help Great Qin with the eminent monks of the western paradise to investigate the clues of the otherworldly demons.”
The people from the Heavenly River looked at each other and nodded. “”1 will.” Some monks from the western paradise also pressed their palms together.
Reverend Pu Hui didn’t stay for long and returned to the western paradise to recuperate.
As such, the leadership of Zhengyang City would undoubtedly still be the Western Qin Empire.
The Buddhist Sect used this method to express their goodwill and ease the worries of Western Qin.
In return, Li Yuanbang and the other Western Qin experts invited the people of the Heavenly River and Western Paradise to search for any clues that Ye Tianmo might have left behind.
At the same time, two other equally important events were also being carried out.
Firstly, it was naturally to stop the other powers from devouring Western Qin.
The balance of the situation in Zhengyang City had been broken, and the stalemate had come to an end. Naturally, it affected the entire Western Qin Empire.
The Eastern Zhou, Green Bull Temple, South Chu, Ancient Gods Clan, and Blood River all stopped their attacks.
At that time, just like the Dongzhou Empire, no one was willing to spit out the fat meat that was already in their mouths.
Although the various factions had stopped attacking, they were still vigorously stabilizing the territories they had already occupied.
West Qin was currently unable to recover it, they could only try their best to stabilize their current territory and consolidate their strength.
This time, West Qin had suffered a great loss, and in a short period of time, nearly half of its territory had been lost.
On the other hand, the West Qin Emperor seemed to have fallen, making the future of the West Qin Empire seem bleak.
Other than stabilizing the current situation, the other important matter of the West Qin Imperial Dynasty was to determine the life and death of the West Qin Great Emperor and search for relevant clues.
“Search for Leng Ji with all your might. I want to see him if he’s alive, and I want to see his corpse if he’s dead.” “Father’s whereabouts are very likely to be on this person,” Li Yuanbang instructed. The West Qin people in front of him agreed.
Everyone understood one thing.
Regardless of whether they could find it or not, they had to find it now, and it had to be done with great fanfare.
Only then could he send a message to the outside world.
The West Qin Great Emperor did not die, he was only heavily injured and his life was unknown.
Even if it was just a sliver of hope, it was of great significance to the current West Qin Empire.
To Li Yuanbang, who already had the ability to become Crown Prince, there was another meaning.
The news of the Qin Emperor’s death was uncertain. The other veteran experts of the imperial family did not dare to act rashly, at least for the time being. From this point of view, perhaps he should thank Chen Luoyang and Leng Ji.
Li Yuanbang was the only one left standing in the hall.
He looked at the dragon throne above him, his expression emotionless as he stood there silently.
After staring at it for a long time, he calmly withdrew his gaze and left the hall.
In the past few days, he had moved into the palace from the outer king’s mansion. He had chosen a side hall to temporarily serve as his bedroom.
Returning to his residence, he walked into a quiet room alone. There was a monk waiting for him.
“Sorry to keep you waiting, Senior Brother.” Li Yuanbang said.
The monk smiled and put his palms together. ” I dare not. Your Majesty, you must have waited for a long time. Now that the late Emperor is no longer around, Master ordered me to deliver the Seven Forms of the Divine Palm as soon as possible to help Your Majesty reach a higher level.
As he spoke, a reverse swastika slowly rotated between his eyebrows.
“Senior Brother, you’re being too serious. I’m only the Crown Prince overseeing the country now.” “I believe that Father is blessed by the heavens and will return to court very soon,” Li Yuanbang said.
“Your Highness is right. This Penniless Monk misspoke just now.” The monk smiled.
South Chu.
Xian Tian Palace.
After the change in the Palace Lord’s position, the palace gradually regained its peace.
However, the atmosphere was a little depressing compared to before.
Everyone seemed to be waiting for something.
On this day, a middle-aged man with an elegant appearance, who looked to be in his forties or fifties, suddenly appeared in the palace..
