The beginning and end of this battle were both sudden and shocking.
Heaven and Earth interacted to form a world of lightning. This was a Killing technique that did not lose out to any Tianjiao.
Furthermore, it collapsed so quickly and suddenly.
Just a gust of white wind blew past, and the entire Thunder World was shattered.
Jiang Qingyang walked calmly through the Thunder World, strolling leisurely in the oppressive world of lightning. At the moment when the Thunder World collapsed and the sky was filled with lightning, he threw out such a ferocious whip kick.
Pa!
The air was shattered, and many people's hearts were shattered.
It made people gasp in shock and intoxicated.
The transition between calmness and fierceness had a soul-stirring beauty.
Lei Zhanqian, who was trying his best to control Lei Xi to save the Thunder World, could not react at all. His entire body flew out. He flew out of the square before being caught by the guards.
He simply tilted his head and fainted.
He had really fainted, but there was really no need for him to do so.
Jiang Wang did not draw his sword, nor did he follow up with True Samadhi Fire. He only threw out a whip kick, which was only enough to knock him out of the arena, but not enough to cause too much damage.
But it was too embarrassing …
If he did not faint immediately, Lei Zhanqian would not know how to face his previous bold words. He would not know how to face the people who had high hopes for him.
It was very difficult to defeat Jiang Wang, but to faint … was very easy.
The guards who caught Lei Zhanqian subconsciously wanted to "wake him up".
Fortunately, Jiang Wuqi said at the right time, "The Killing technique has backfired. I'm afraid it will harm his foundation. Quickly send Young Master Lei to rest."
After helping Lei Zhanqian find a way out, he clapped his hands and praised Jiang Wang, "Brilliant!"
As the inspiration for the Killing technique "Thunder World", as well as the person who had been accompanying Lei Zhanqian in his practice and helping him gradually perfect this Killing technique.
Jiang Wuqi knew very well how terrifying the Killing technique 'Thunder World' was. He also knew very well that Lei Zhanqian was still unable to fully master this Killing technique. He also knew where the weakness of the current 'Thunder World' was.
However, this was Jiang Wang's first time seeing the Thunder Realm!
This was the first time he had seen the Thunder World, but in such a short period of time, he was able to use his astonishing insight and acuity to find the weakness and defeat Lei Zhanqian so easily.
This was too terrifying!
No wonder Third Royal Sister said that this person was the hero of the world who could "make the impossible possible."
His pity for Lei Zhanqian was sincere. His admiration for Jiang Wang was also sincere.
He is Da Qi's son!
Lei Zhanqian was defeated so quickly that it was reasonable for his cousin, Jiang Wuqi, to say a few words to salvage the situation.
Therefore, the princes and princesses on the platform did not say anything.
Of course, even though they were both laughing, Jiang Wuyou was definitely happier than Jiang Wuxie.
The guards quickly carried Lei Zhanqian away.
In the center of the Independence Square, Jiang Wang nodded slightly to express his gratitude for Jiang Wuqi's acknowledgment.
It was not rude, but the distance between them was obvious.
Jiang Wuqi smiled nonchalantly.
Jiang Wang turned around and extended his right hand to Cui Ju, making an inviting gesture and saying, "Please!"
He did not need to rest!
He really did not need to rest …
In the eyes of the ordinary people on the platform on the left, they could only see two scenes —
Thunder and lightning enveloped the square.
The thunder and lightning disappeared, and Lei Zhanqian was sent flying by a whip kick.
In the blink of an eye, the battle was over.
Cui Ju had the typical military style. In the face of Jiang Wang's invitation, he did not waste any time and directly walked to the center of the square.
Lei Zhanqian voluntarily fainted, which meant that he had given up on the next round of the martial arts competition.
At this moment, after witnessing how Jiang Wang defeated Lei Zhanqian with their own eyes, not many people felt that there was a need for a third round.
In the eyes of the cultivators who were not strong enough and the ordinary spectators, Jiang Wang easily crushed Lei Zhanqian. The two sides were not at the same level at all.
In the eyes of the powerful cultivators, Jiang Wang had shown unparalleled fighting talent in the battle just now. He was much stronger than Lei Zhanqian.
Whether they liked it or not, they had to admit —
In today's Qi, Jiang Wang was the leader of the younger generation of Inner Mansion cultivators!
Perhaps Wang Yiwu, who was still in the death row prison camp, could compete, but in the army, including Cui Ju, these cultivators who were not as good as Wang Yiwu really had no chance of defeating Jiang Wang.
However, Cui Ju himself didn't seem to think so.
At this moment, he stood in front of Jiang Wang, still as cold as a stone statue, as if he was born without any emotions.
Of course, he didn't cower or feel fear.
At this moment, Jiang Wang's back was facing the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and he was facing the Emperor of Da Qi.
Cui Ju was facing him, facing the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
In the huge square, only the two of them were facing each other.
The spectators on the field were the white-clothed Jung Genzun and the silver-armored Ji Zhaonan.
"Let's start," Jiang Rumo said lightly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them were already facing each other!
Why did Jiang Wang defeat Lei Zhanqian in such a fierce manner?
Because Jung Genzun was the champion of Linzi today, he also needed to show his edge so that Chung Geng Sheng wouldn't be so dim in comparison!
He did this to Lei Zhanqian, and also to Cui Ju.
Therefore, at the beginning of the battle, Jiang Wang skipped probing and directly closed in, seeking victory.
The moment he closed in, he opened his five fingers, and the white Buzhou Wind leaped out, transforming into six Death Spikes, and approached Cui Ju with the momentum of an inescapable net!
Jung Genzun only used three theurgies to defeat his opponent, and hid two. Even if he only used one Buzhou Wind, he was still hiding two.
And this Buzhou Wind blowing into Death Spikes was a new usage he developed.
Six long spikes as black as the night, with a touch of frost at the tip. Trailing a white trail, they shot forward at an astonishing speed.
They faintly locked onto all the positions in front of the opponent, targeting the head, heart, and limbs.
This was such a cold and cruel theurgy.
It killed the life, extinguished the soul, and killed the life of the spikes!
Cui Ju couldn't take it head on, so he retreated.
He retreated at a terrifying speed.
His figure was like a ghost, so fast that he left behind a long string of afterimages, shaking off the pursuit of the Death Spikes.
He retreated a bit far, there was no need to retreat so far …
Just as Jiang Wang had this thought in his mind.
He saw Cui Ju suddenly turn around, facing the Emperor of Da Qi directly!
No!
Jiang Wang pulled with his left hand, and the chains that he prepared beforehand drilled out of the void — this was originally to restrict Cui Ju's space of movement, allowing the Death Spikes to take effect easily.
At this moment, two pitch-black chains crisscrossed, blocking in front of Cui Ju!
And Cui Ju's body was already disintegrating, the kind of disintegration that turned into ashes. The disintegration started from his limbs, and spread to his heart.
This disintegration provided him with terrifying strength.
Therefore, he threw out a javelin, a gray javelin that was constantly spinning and accelerating, nourished by his flesh, spirit, and even lifespan.
Crack!
This javelin broke Jiang Wang's chains with one strike, and flew towards the Emperor of Da Qi.
And Cui Ju shouted loudly, with an indescribable madness in his voice —
"Year 31 of Shen Wu. Cui Ju stabs Jiang Shu!!! "
This voice reverberated endlessly, spreading far and wide.
His target was actually the Emperor of Da Qi!
And it was in front of the important Imperial Ancestral Temple, in the "Ceremony of the Great Master", in front of the civil and military officials of Da Qi, as well as the spectators, he threw the javelin to stab the Emperor of Da Qi!
What kind of crazy act was this?
Jiang Wang reacted quickly, instantly activating the Immortal Sound State, and with a grab of one hand, he annihilated Cui Ju's voice, preventing it from continuing to spread.
But what should have been heard had already been heard. What he didn't hear would be known later …
It was nothing more than mending the pen after the sheep were lost.
At the same time, Jiang Wang crushed the Blue Cloud Mark with one foot, displaying his fastest speed, and quickly approached Cui Ju's back.
In a small space, he had a meteoric rise!
All of this seemed to take a long time to describe, but it actually happened in an instant.
Cui Ju and Jiang Wang retreated as soon as they met, faster and faster, and then threw the javelin towards the Emperor of Da Qi.
After throwing the javelin, Cui Ju suddenly turned around before he rushed out of the square, and his eyes met with Jiang Wang's.
His expression was deranged, and there was a kind of devotion in his eyes.
"I have no regrets!"
This was his voice, a voice that Jiang Wang had forbidden to spread, but still fell into Jiang Wang's ears.
Cui Ju's body was still falling apart, disintegrating at a rapid pace.
His flesh and blood, his spirit, his lifespan, his fate … his entire life!
Everything was falling apart.
Clang!
Jiang Wang's longsword slashed through the air amidst Chang Xiangsi's soft cry!
But he was already dead.
Completely dead.
The longsword chopped Cui Ju to pieces, but it also seemed to have cut nothing.
And that terrifying deathly gray javelin that was constantly spinning and accelerating collapsed soundlessly before it could even approach the Pill Emperor.
The Ceremony Directorate's Great Eunuch Han Ling stood with his hands in his sleeves, expressionless, as if he hadn't attacked at all.
And the scene was absolutely silent!
There wasn't a single sound in front of the Imperial Ancestral Temple!
This had nothing to do with Jiang Wang's sound-controlling Dao technique.
Even the sound of breathing had stopped!
Of course, no one spoke.
Who dared to speak at this time?
If anything went wrong, today's matter would evolve into a huge catastrophe.
Although the Qi Emperor was generous with his rewards, when he was ruthless, he wouldn't show any mercy.
Many years ago, someone had said this about the Qi Emperor, saying that he was a mighty ruler — "Whether it's kindness or punishment, there's no increase!"
Many people only saw the Qi Emperor's boundless favor and how talented people could rise to the heavens in Qi, but they often neglected the fact that there was no increase in punishment!
How could the Withered Yard, which had branches all over the Qi Region, only be left in ruins in Linzi City?
There weren't any other places, not even ruins!
The dethroned Crown Prince, Jiang Wuliang, had been endlessly favored. Every time the Qi Emperor went to war, he was allowed to govern the country. Even when the Qi Emperor was in the imperial court, he often let Jiang Wuliang handle political affairs.
But what if he lost his favor?
The so-called "henchmen" of the dethroned Crown Prince were almost all killed. And Jiang Wuliang was imprisoned in the Bluestone Palace in the thirty-fifth year of the Yuanfeng Era. Now, it was the fifty-fifth year of the Yuanfeng Era. The Emperor hadn't seen him for a whole twenty years! This was the Emperor's biological son, the son he had the deepest feelings for.
And today, on the big day of the martial arts competition in front of the Emperor to select the country's Heaven's Chosen, one of the Heaven's Chosen actually plotted to assassinate the Emperor?
If this matter was investigated …
First of all, the commander of the Lightning Prison Army, Xiu Yuan, would have to be dismissed. He might even lose his life.
And the people who recommended Cui Zu to the list …
The officials who were selected along the way, and even the people who personally selected Cui Zu from the Political Affairs Hall, would all have to bear the responsibility.
This responsibility … no one could bear it!
The Emperor of Da Qi was sitting on the dragon throne. No one could look at him directly, so no one could see his expression clearly.
He was expressionless.
The Emperor's thoughts were as deep as the sea.
If he didn't speak, no one dared to speak.
So he spoke.
He said lightly, "Qingyang Town's man, you have meritorious service in protecting the Emperor. I'll remember this merit and reward you after the Yellow River Meeting."
This was not stingy, but a great honor.
Capturing and killing an Inner Mansion Realm assassin could be considered a big merit, but it could also be considered a small one. In fact, Jiang Wang couldn't stop Cui Zu, and Cui Zu couldn't get close to the Emperor of Qi.
But Jiang Wang stopped Cui Zu immediately and decisively cut off the sound to reduce the impact of the assassination. This decisive action undoubtedly added a lot of points to him.
The Emperor of Qi chose to remember this merit and had high hopes for Jiang Wang.
Once Jiang Wang could achieve great merit in the Yellow River Meeting, Jiang Wang would be able to cross some difficult boundaries in one fell swoop. He had just entered the Qi Dynasty two years ago, so he was not as reliable as Chung Geng Sheng and Li Longchuan. It was difficult for him to gain the same trust as them. Therefore, there were some thresholds that were actually invisible and very difficult to cross.
But there were exceptions. When Emperor Wu of Qi restored the country, how many obscure surnames became prominent? Some came to the Qi Dynasty with Emperor Wu of Qi, and because of their achievements in restoring the country, they became nobles of the Qi Dynasty.
Jiang Wang retracted the Killing Nail that was still circling in the air and sheathed his sword. He saluted with his hands folded. "I only did what I was supposed to do. I dare not claim credit."
He was a fourth-grade Blue Medal of the Qi Dynasty. Speaking of which, arresting criminals was indeed his job.
The Emperor of Da Qi said, "Jiang Wang, you are very good. I didn't misjudge you. "
When he said that he did not see wrongly, he was naturally referring to the time when Donghua Pavilion bestowed a purple robe.
Without waiting for Jiang Wang to reply to show his loyalty, he suddenly asked, "Do you know why this thief wanted to assassinate me today, even though he knew it was impossible?"
Jiang Wang said carefully, "I … don't know."
Of course, he knew that the Emperor wasn't just asking him this question.
At the same time, he really didn't know the answer.
"Do you all know?" The Emperor of Da Qi looked at the nobles and officials.
On the high platform, the officials and generals looked at each other. In the face of such a dangerous question, no one dared to speak first.
But the Emperor gave the answer himself.
He sneered. "This is an imitation of Emperor Huai of the Qin Kingdom!"
The nobles and officials seemed to be frozen. They didn't even dare to raise their heads.
Jiang Wang even heard the sound of someone sucking in a cold breath. The weight of the Emperor of Da Qi's words was obvious.
But he didn't understand …
What was Emperor Huai of the Qin Kingdom?
After becoming a transcendent, he didn't have enough time to cultivate every day. Naturally, he didn't have time to read history. Before becoming a transcendent, he did read some books, but it wasn't enough to memorize the history of all the countries in the world.
The Emperor of Da Qi obviously noticed Jiang Wang's confusion. He said calmly, "Crown Prince, you are the Crown Prince. Explain it to him."
This level of examination couldn't stump the Crown Prince, but it was dangerous for him to speak at this moment.
Jiang Wuhua was still calm. He stood up and bowed respectfully before saying, "During the time of Emperor Huai of the Qin Kingdom. Some members of the imperial clan wanted to rebel, but they were hesitant. In June of that year, there was a court official who assassinated Emperor Huai on the imperial road. Since then, the world knew that the court was unstable and that Emperor Huai had lost the support of the people. So, Ying Zhang led the army and killed Emperor Huai in the Xianyang Palace. He ascended the throne in the same year and became Emperor Xuan of Qin … The current royal family of Qin is this branch. "
Jiang Wang was shocked when he heard this.
The Emperor of Da Qi stood up and stood in front of the dragon throne. He looked down at all his subjects and asked in a not strict voice —
"Who has this intention?"
Plop!
Jiang Wuhua knelt down and pressed his forehead to the ground.
From the Emperor of Dan's high platform, from the princes and princesses to the civil and military officials and the nobles. Even the common people.
Everyone knelt on the ground!
