Chapter 114: Everything Ends.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
The Tang Empire has been standing for 560 years after its establishment.
During this period, there were many times when Princes seized the throne and killed their brothers.
However, there had never been a Prince who dared to band together with an enemy country. This was a felony of treason in the Tang Empire Law.
The prince who violated this bottom line, must be deprived of the Imperial Family status and executed by capital punishment.
“Li Chen, you have to think clearly. What are you doing right now?!”
Crown Prince Li Sheng shouted sharply.
Just now, his attention was focused on Yin Jiu Bat, and now as King Wuyang raised his head, Crown Prince Li Sheng finally realized that the situation was about to lose control.
Not only there is Yin Jiu Bat, there’s also King Wuyang who’s also a Peak Grade…
Many of the Officials were equally surprised and angry as they looked at Prince Chen in disbelief.
“Hehe…”
Prince Chen didn’t bother to talk anymore.
In his mind, the winner is the king, the loser is the villain.
Once he finally ascends to the throne, so what about teaming up with an enemy country? What about treason?
By then, isn’t he the ‘law’?
“King Wuyang, let’s do it.”
Prince Chen turned his head, looked at King Wuyang, and said.
When King Wuyang Wang heard this, he chuckled. He took a step forward and disappeared in place.
Almost at the same time, Crown Prince Li Sheng felt a bad omen.
“Not good.”
Crown Prince Li Sheng wanted to step back.
But it’s just too late. King Wuyang had already appeared within ten meters of Crown Prince Li Sheng.
For a Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmaster, the ten meters of distance is very short, and Crown Prince Li Sheng can’t hide.
“Your Highness.”
“Your Highness, be careful!”
When a loyal courtier saw this scene, he was shocked and he subconsciously wanted to step forward to stand in front of Crown Prince Li Sheng.
[Bang!]
But just then, a dozen of red-clothed eunuchs appeared silently. They surrounded Crown Prince Li Sheng’s side and barely blocked King Wuyang’s blow.
“Oh?”
King Wuyang raised his brows and looked at the dozen red-clothed eunuchs.
The red-clothed eunuchs were all Grade 1 Great Grandmasters, and they will, without a doubt, protect Crown Prince Li Sheng to the death.
“So only this is what your Tang Empire has?”
King Wuyang shook his head slightly.
“This is really a big problem.”
Crown Prince Li Sheng’s expression was grave.
Before he died, Emperor Tang had already told him all the details in the Imperial Palace.
There are 23 Grade 1 Great Grandmasters in the Imperial Palace.
These 23 Grade 1 Great Grandmasters only listened to the order of Emperor Tang, and now with the death of Emperor Tang, they are all under the command of Crown Prince Li Sheng.
However, although the twenty-three Grade 1 Great Grandmasters seem many, it is actually difficult to block two Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmasters.
Unless they were Martial Artists of the same rank, there is nothing that can move the two.
As for the encirclement and suppression of the Army…
If they were outside Chang’an City, then they can use this method. After all, even if you are a Peak Grade 1, once you are trapped in the army of a million, you will soon be exhausted if you don’t escape.
But they were in Chang’an City right now, it was obviously unrealistic to encircle and suppress the two with the army.
“Use Formation.”
Crown Prince Li Sheng said solemnly.
The red-clothed eunuchs glanced at each other, and then immediately changed their positions. They now surrounded King Wuyang in a strange orientation.
Meanwhile, on the other side, the other (less than a) dozen of Grade 1 Great Grandmasters that’s fighting with Yin Jiu Bat, also changed into a certain position. They cooperated with each other, trapping Yin Jiu Bat.
This Formation was left by the Founding Father of the Tang Empire. It can gather all the strength of the people in the formation to fight a much stronger opponent.
Although Crown Prince Li Sheng does not know whether this type of Formation is useful against Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmasters, but now, he can only try.
“Huh?”
King Wuyang’s eyes slightly narrowed and a smile appeared on his face: “Interesting.”
“However, if you feel that this is enough to stop me, you are fools!”
Immediately after King Wuyang said this.
His figure disappeared and he rushed towards the red-clothed eunuchs.
…
At the same time.
Su Qin was walking towards the Long Life Temple.
At this time, the Long Life Temple was extremely quiet, to the point that if a needle was dropped, it could be heard.
The court ladies and eunuchs all fled because of Prince Chen’s entry into the city.
Su Qin walked slowly into the Long Life Temple.
“It’s you?” Next to Emperor Tang’s body was Eunuch Zhao. He glanced at Su Qin and indifferently said: “There are two Peak Grade 1’s outside who are about to enter, take advantage of the time now to run for your life.”
Eunuch Zhao then closed his eyes after speaking.
In the past ten years, Eunuch Zhao has almost exhausted his own Life Essence in order to extend Emperor Tang’s life.
Now he’s unable to move even a little bit. It’s not an exaggeration to say that he is like a lamp that has its oil running dry. Maybe the next moment, he will die during meditation.
“Escape?”
Su Qin only laughed but did not reply.
“Anyway, I just came here to send Emperor Tang off.”
Su Qin said.
“Emperor Tang?”
Eunuch Zhao opened his eyes again and looked at Su Qin.
If it hadn’t been for him being unable to move at this moment, he would have punished Su Qin long ago.
He dared to call His Majesty like that (Emperor)? This was a sign of disrespect!
“What are you treating His Majesty as?” Eunuch Zhao stared at Su Qin, a dangerous light flashed in his eyes.
Though Su Qin didn’t care at all. He instead sat down and looked at an ancient zither in front of him.
The ancient zither is dark cyan throughout, and it has a deep and mysterious aura. It was placed not far from the Dragon Throne. Apparently, Emperor Tang liked it very much during his lifetime.
“I’ll play him a ‘Farewell’ song.”
Su Qin gently pressed both his hands on the strings.
“You?!”
Eunuch Zhao’s expression sank.
Emperor Tang is still an Emperor. Even if he died, he should have a dedicated musician to play a song for him and not some random guy. This is in line with royal etiquette. Su Qin’s behavior was tantamount to underestimating Emperor Tang.
However, just when Eunuch Zhao was ready to act, desperate to stop Su Qin’s behavior.
[Shing!!!]
Su Qin’s right hand gently plucked the strings. It sounded ethereal, but it was lonely. And wherever the sound passed, the air would faintly solidify.
“This is?”
Eunuch Zhao’s complexion greatly changed, as he looked at Su Qin incredulously.
…
In the city.
The situation was gradually coming to an end.
The 23 Grade 1 Great Grandmasters were barely able to stop the two Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmasters, King Wuyang and Yin Jiu Bat.
Then, the eight Grade 1 Great Grandmasters from Southern Ming Empire also joined the battlefield
“Hahahahaha.”
“Unable to withstand even a single blow!!!”
At this moment, Yin Jiu Bat laughed wildly. He raised his hands and sent two Grade 1 Great Grandmasters flying.
“Little Crown Prince, that Eunuch Zhao hasn’t appeared even after so long, maybe something went wrong.”
“In that case, you should meet with your old man and die.”
Yin Jiu Bat raised his right hand and slowly pressed it down towards Crown Prince Li Sheng.
“Your Highness!”
The Officials exclaimed.
“Not good!!”
The expressions of the red-clothed eunuchs who surrounded King Wuyang, changed drastically. They wanted to go back and save Crown Prince Li Sheng, but they were easily dragged back by King Wuyang.
“Li Sheng!”
Su Yueyun, who had just rushed over, saw this scene.
“Die, die.”
“Once you are dead, the throne is mine!”
A cruel smile appeared on Prince Chen’s face.
“Am I going to die?”
Crown Prince Li Sheng was in a daze. He only saw that the palm being pressed by Yin Jiu Bat was getting bigger and bigger, covering almost his entire field of vision.
And without a doubt, once Yin Jiu Bat finished slapping Crown Prince Li Sheng to death, he would slaughter the group of Grade 1 Great Grandmasters.
[Weng!!!]
An ethereal, lonely sound of a zither suddenly sounded. It was like the Heavens and Earth was pressing down on the atmosphere.
“Who is it?!!!”
A deep sense of horror suddenly filled Yin Jiu Bat. His right hand, that’s pressing towards Crown Prince Li Sheng, also seemed to be completely locked and he couldn’t move.
“No!!!”
Yin Jiu Bat roared hysterically.
Then the next moment, under everyone’s shocked gaze, he suddenly exploded into a bloody mist.
“This is?!”
Everyone who saw this scene stood there blankly, with fear in their eyes.
