“Finally, the 7th Heavenly Layer…”
Su Qin breathed out lightly and started restraining his aura.
“I didn’t expect it to proceed so smoothly.”
Su Qin was very satisfied with the results and wore a smile on his face.
“The strength of my True Essence, Body, and Divine Sense has increased by at least nearly ten times. Now, I can suppress a 6th Heavenly Layer with just a single finger.”
Su Qin felt the new power in his body and judged.
“But although the breakthrough went smoothly, it took me six months. If it weren’t for my avatar, I wouldn’t have been able to use my Sign Ins…”
Su Qin looked at the well that was not too far away, while thinking to himself.
Su Qin would have definitely wasted six months worth of Sign In chances during his retreat.
Six months was a full 180 Sign Ins! Even if he could only get one Demon Origin Fruit each time he Sign Ins, it was still 180 Demon Origin Fruits!
“Let’s see what has happened outside.”
Su Qin stretched his muscles a bit, then spread his Divine Sense – easily covering a hundred li.
“Huh?”
“The Meng Yuan Empire’s Army is coming to Chang’an City?”
Su Qin’s thoughts moved. He took a step and disappeared.
…
Chang’an City’s city wall.
Emperor Li Sheng’s face was pale.
The Commander of the Imperial Army next to him, also wore an ugly expression on his face.
As a Grade 1 Great Perfection, although the Commander of the Imperial Army would not be suppressed by the Imperial Teacher from this distance, he was clearly aware of the gap between himself and the opponent.
“Your Majesty.”
“Why don’t we evacuate? Anyway, the most important thing is to save our lives.” The Commander suggested.
Perhaps the others were also counting on the Legend in the Imperial Palace. However, as the Emperor’s confidant, the Commander knew that even the Emperor himself did not know who the Legend in the Imperial Palace was. Not to mention seek his help.
In this case, the Commander naturally persuaded the Emperor to save his life.
As for the others, well it depends.
“So you want me to abandon the millions of people in Chang’an City, abandon the Imperial Family and escape alone?” Emperor Li Sheng looked at the Commander and said softly.
The Emperor guards the gate of the country and he dies along with its destruction.
As the Emperor of the Tang Empire, if Emperor Li Sheng really escaped, what face would he have left to present to the past Emperors?
The Commander saw the determination in the words of the Emperor. He knelt on one knee and pledged: “As long as I am still standing, nothing will happen to Your Majesty.”
The Commander’s words showed his will to die.
He is a Grade 1 Great Perfection. If he wanted to leave, no one could stop him unless the Imperial Teacher took action himself.
However, the Commander did not have such thoughts, because he was the Commander of the Imperial Army and everything he had now was bestowed by the Tang Empire.
“Good!”
“Very good!”
Emperor Li Sheng’s face was filled with relief.
At this moment, Emperor Li Sheng was suddenly taken aback, he asked: “Third Brother, when did you come back?”
“Just now.”
Su Qin casually strolled along the city wall and glanced at the Meng Yuan Army, which was still twenty miles away.
When Su Qin was preparing to break through, he had informed Emperor Li Sheng and the Su Family of his absence.
“Third Brother, you shouldn’t have come back…”
Emperor Li Sheng sighed slightly, his face full of bitterness.
If there’s a time that it was bad for Su Qin to come back, it was this time.
“Third Brother, I’ll have someone escort you out of Chang’an City. No matter what happens in the future, don’t come back.”
Emperor Li Sheng said seriously.
“You want me to leave?”
“Why should I?”
Su Qin replied casually, his eyes were calm.
“Why?” Emperor Li Sheng was stunned. He looked at the Meng Yuan Empire’s Army twenty miles away, then at Su Qin, who didn’t react at all.
Why should you leave?
Because the Meng Yuan Empire’s Army is coming, if you do not leave, you will die!
“Third Brother.”
“Not only do you have to leave, but also Yun’er, Yuan’er and Wan’er. Please take care of them for me.”
Emperor Li Sheng said in a deep voice.
Although Emperor Li Sheng had already made up his mind to exist and disappear with Chang’an City, that didn’t mean that he would watch Su Yueyun, Li Yuan and Li Wan die with him.
“Yun’er is still asleep and she can’t do without the care of Third Brother. Yuan’er and Wan’er are still young, they need Third Brother’s guidance.”
“Just treat this as my last request to Third Brother…”
Emperor Li Sheng then bowed to Su Qin, he with bitterness: “I was not a good Emperor. Not only did I not let Third Brother enjoy glory and wealth, but also caused Third Brother to run for his life…”
“There’s no need for that.”
Su Qin simply said.

A few hours later.
The Meng Yuan Empire’s Army had come to a halt ten miles outside Chang’an City.
Then all of a sudden, an overbearing aura descended towards the city.
“It’s over.”
“We can’t leave anymore, even if we want to leave.” Emperor Li Sheng felt cold and glanced at Su Qin next to him.
During the past few hours, Emperor Li Sheng had been persuading Su Qin to leave, but it didn’t help at all.
This made Emperor Li Sheng agitated and jumpy.
After the Meng Yuan Empire’s Army stopped, the army dispersed, and a tall man walked out.
“Is that the Imperial Teacher?”
Emperor Li Sheng’s face suddenly paled when he saw this.
The other people on the city wall also looked solemn, their eyes focusing on the tall man.
Under everyone’s gaze, the tall man walked out a few steps before stopping. He looked at Chang’an City in the distance, and said lightly: “Ever since I left the Meng Yuan Empire, I was looking forward to something.”
The tall man’s voice was not loud, but it spread ten miles away, resounding clearly in the ears of Emperor Li Sheng and the others.
“I was looking forward to being able to fight against another Legend!”
“Even if I die, I should die in the fight and not wait to die in old age, like a tortoise!”
The Imperial Teacher’s voice grew louder and louder, before it finally sounded like a bronze bell, oscillating in all directions.
“But now, I am disappointed!”
“I am completely disappointed!”
“In Chang’an City, there is simply no Legend.”
“All my expectations, all my fighting intentions, they are all gone!”
Anger was evident in the Imperial Teacher’s words, especially his last sentence that sounded like a thunderbolt.
On the Chang’an City’s city wall, everyone’s ears echoed the words of the Imperial Teacher.
There was only a single thought in everyone’s mind.
“Chang’an City has no Legend?”
“Chang’an City has no Legend?”
“Chang’an City has no Legend?”
The reason they managed to muster some courage to stand here and face the 5 million army of the Meng Yuan Empire was because of the Legend in the Imperial Palace!
But now, the Imperial Teacher was saying that there was no such person in Chang’an City?
Without a Legend, how can they resist the Meng Yuan Empire?
“The Legend in Chang’an City has left…” The Imperial Teacher’s eyes lit up and muttered to himself.
Before he came, he was still worried about whether the Legend in Chang’an City was stronger or weaker than him.
But now, since there was no Legend in Chang’an City, there was no need for the Imperial Teacher to even take action. The army will be able to break into Chang’an City on their own.
“Dominate the world–”
“The Meng Yuan Empire will end the troubled times and dominate the world, we shall establish an unstoppable cause!”
The Imperial Teacher’s eyes were hot.
On the city wall, Emperor Li Sheng’s face was pale, despair appeared on his face.
Until now, he was holding on to a glimmer of hope, thinking that the Legend in the Imperial Palace might be able to block the Imperial Teacher.
But now hearing what the Imperial Teacher said, Emperor Li Sheng fell into the abyss.
Emperor Li Sheng did not suspect that the Imperial Teacher lied. After all, war was about to come and the Imperial Teacher’s lying had no incentive.
If a Legend was really in Chang’an City, he would have taken action long ago and wouldn’t have waited until now.
Thinking of this, Emperor Li Sheng’s vision darkened, his legs softened, and he fell to the ground.
Suddenly, a slender yet powerful hand supported Emperor Li Sheng.
“Third Brother.”
Emperor Li Sheng managed to recover, and saw Su Qin holding him up. He said bitterly: “Third Brother, I’m sorry. I’m sorry to Yun’er, I’m sorry to the Su Family, I’m sorry to the Tang Empire…”
“Don’t be sorry.”
Su Qin interrupted Emperor Li Sheng and retracted his right hand. He then walked slowly forward.
“Third Brother, what are you going to do?”
Emperor Li Sheng reacted and asked subconsciously.
Su Qin didn’t look back and only said two words.
“Kill him!”
