Chapter 172: Shock.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
“How is this possible?!”
The Meng Yuan Empire’s army stood there blankly. They watched the Imperial Teacher, who resembled a god, being pierced by a finger. They almost thought that what they saw was an illusion.
“The Imperial Teacher is dead?”
“How could the Imperial Teacher die?”
The Meng Yuan Empire’s Emperor’s hands and feet were cold. He was panicking. He was just thinking about the surrender of the countries and the domination of the Meng Yuan Empire… And yet, here they are now. The Imperial Teacher died in the blink of an eye.
As soon as the Imperial Teacher died, the Meng Yuan Empire lost its greatest support. Although the Meng Yuan Empire could still occupy the Endless Grassland with its power, dominating the world was akin to a joke.
The Generals standing next to the Emperor felt chills. The Imperial Teacher died, what should they do?
The Meng Yuan Empire’s 5 million troops can be said to be the power of the whole country. Once this battle fails and they return to the Empire, they will be faced with the people’s resentment…
And…
The Generals looked at Su Qin.
Whether they can return to the Empire safely was a question, let alone deal with people’s grievances.
Contrary to the silence of the Meng Yuan Empire’s army.
The Tang Empire’s side was cheering. The Imperial Soldiers were full of joy. They don’t know Su Qin, but they know that Su Qin saved the Empire from destruction by killing the Imperial Teacher.
“Long live the Empire!”
“Long live His Majesty!”
The people in Chang’an City chanted and cheered.
“Is that man the Legend in the Imperial Palace?” The ladies looked at Su Qin with admiration.
“He looks about my age, I don’t know if he’s already married…”
The lady bowed her head and mumbled, with a sound like that of a mosquito.
“Hehe.”
The Martial Artist next to her heard this and shook his head. He said: “How revered is a Legend? How can you be attracted to you…”
The Martial Artist didn’t finish his sentence, but the meaning in his words was obvious, “You are not worthy of him”.
“You?!”
The lady’s pretty face was flushed, she stomped her feet and hurried away.
When other people saw this, they all smiled at each other. They didn’t feel that there was something wrong with the lady’s thinking, but it was another matter if she could really do it or not.
“The Legend’s strength is really terrifying, he should be high leveled.”
A Martial Artist of the Upper Realm sighed lightly, his face full of emotion.
“Agreed.”
The other Martial Artists nodded in agreement, awe flashed across their faces.
Su Qin can easily kill the Imperial Teacher, obviously his strength was far above the latter. For these Martial Artists, Legend Realm was out of reach, this was even more true to the higher levels of the Legend Realm.
While the Martial Artists of Chang’an City were discussing spiritedly, Emperor Li Sheng, the Officials and Imperial Soldiers who stood on the city wall, were stunned.
“Third Brother killed the Imperial Teacher?”
Emperor Li Sheng came back to his senses after Su Qin walked away in the sky, just before he saw the Imperial Teacher dying in Su Qin’s hands.
After a long time, Emperor Li Sheng reluctantly reacted. He looked towards the Commander next to him with a hoarse voice: “What happened just now?”
“Your Majesty.”
Shock, disbelief and many other emotions flashed across the face of the Commander. Finally, he took a deep breath and sighed: “The Third Uncle killed the Imperial Teacher.”
The Commander calmed himself down, then continued: “Your Majesty, the Third Uncle is the Legend in the Imperial Palace that we were looking for.”
As the Commander said this sentence, scenes of Su Qin kept flashing in his mind.
In the eyes of the Commander, although Su Qin has some abilities like being a doctor, to the point that the old Tang Emperor admires him, but compared with his identity as a Legend, all of this was nothing.
“It turns out that we actually already met the Legend many times…” The Commander was deeply moved.
He commanded the Imperial Army and he often patrolled, so he would occasionally see Su Qin wandering around in the Imperial Palace.
“Why haven’t I thought of it? Why haven’t I thought of it? Why haven’t I thought of it?”
Emperor Li Sheng felt a roar in his head and he kept muttering to himself.
In the past hundreds of years, apart from the Founding Father, there has never been anyone who has achieved Legend Realm in the Tang Empire. When a Legend suddenly appeared in the Imperial Palace, it was exactly when Su Qin moved into the East Palace!
Furthermore, whenever the Legend took action, it was only when Emperor Li Sheng himself was facing a life and death crisis. Obviously, the other party only cares about Emperor Li Sheng’s life.
Emperor Li Sheng thought a lot, as he stared blankly at Su Qin standing alone in the depths of the Meng Yuan Empire’s army.
“Little Qin, Little Qin…”
Su Shimin and Su Chenghao looked at each other with a blank face, not comprehending what just happened.
…
…
The Meng Yuan Empire’s army.
Throughout the whole ordeal, Su Qin’s expression did not change.
The Imperial Teacher, who was a Legend, could be considered invincible in an era; but unfortunately, he met Su Qin.
Su Qin had already entered the 7th Heavenly Layer. The gap between the Imperial Teacher and Su Qin was like an ordinary person who wanted to challenge an Arhat or Legend.
Not to mention that Su Qin wasn’t familiar with his new strength yet, as he had just broken through. Otherwise he could’ve killed the Imperial Teacher in Chang’an City, ten miles apart.
Just then, a loud shout sounded.
“Since you have killed the Imperial Teacher, our Empires’ feud is now irreconcilable. Listen, whoever can hurt this person will be rewarded 100,000 taels of gold and a Fiefdom of 10,000 mu. Whoever can kill this person will be surnamed Wang (Imperial Family) and share the Endless Grassland with the country’s Emperor.”
This voice was deep and powerful. It spread across several li in an instant.
Suddenly, the 5 million troops arose.
When such a high reward is offered, brave men will naturally come forward.
Even if these soldiers had witnessed Su Qin suppress and kill the Imperial Teacher with their own eyes, since they have joined the army, who wouldn’t want to make contributions?
At this moment, the General who had just issued the military order, quickly came to the Emperor and whispered: “Your Majesty, you have to escape.”
Obviously, the General didn’t think that the army could deal with Su Qin.
The reason why he issued such an order was nothing more than sacrificing the 5 million troops to buy time for the Emperor.
In his opinion, no matter how strong Su Qin was, it will still take time to kill 5 million troops, right?
If the sacrifice of these 5 million troops could allow the Emperor to escape, everything will be worth it.
“Escape?”
The Emperor looked at the General, and a glimmer of hope appeared on his face: “Yes, as long as I escape back to the Grassland, we still have a chance.”
The Emperor, who had just reignited some hope, subconsciously looked back, wanting to see how the situation was.
It’s just that, from this, the Emperor saw an unforgettable scene.
