"You … you!"
Seeing Rong Hanyuan's body fall to the ground, Qin Yin's beautiful face twisted in anger. She pointed at Zeng Yifan and said, "You dare to kill someone in front of me?! Zeng Yifan, how dare you! "
Zeng Yifan handed Rong Hanyuan's head to a Thousand-man Commander of the Divine Might Battalion. He cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness, please forgive this old official for his disrespect. Rong Hanyuan is a vermin in the army and must be killed immediately. This old official will personally apologize to His Majesty."
"Whoosh whoosh …"
Lin Muyu was furious. Her battle qi turned into flames and surrounded her fists. The Burning Prairie Sword on her back also trembled slightly because of its master's anger. It seemed as if it would be unsheathed at any time and kill the enemy. However, Lin Muyu couldn't do anything in the end. He didn't even have a ten percent chance of winning against a Sanctuary like Zeng Yifan. If he really did make a move, he might even implicate Tang Xiaoxi and Qin Yin. After thinking about it, he had no other choice but to regret.
He hated himself for not being able to break through Zeng Yifan's domain suppression. Otherwise, if he made a move, Rong Hanyuan wouldn't have been beheaded. This meritorious old general of the Imperial Guards was the senior of him, Qin Yan, Chu Huaiyin and the others. He shouldn't have died like this.
… …
At this moment, the sound of hooves could be heard from afar. Qin Lei led a large group of Imperial Guards and rushed over. When he saw Rong Hanyuan's headless corpse, his face instantly paled. He lifted his Thunder Split Blade and dismounted from his horse. His entire body was enshrouded in battle qi and the God Binding Chains surrounded his Thunder Split Blade. He roared, "Who was it? Which bastard killed Rong Hanyuan!? "
"Little Prince, it was this old official."
Divine Marquis Zeng Yifan still had a respectful look on his face as he said, "Rong Hanyuan privately hoarded thousands of hectares of fertile land. He knowingly broke the law and even tried to resist when this old official tried to arrest him. Therefore, this old official killed him on the spot."
"You!"
Qin Yan had an enraged look as the Thunder Split Saber flickered with lightning sparks. He nearly crushed his steel teeth from clenching them as he roared furiously, "Old Dog Zeng, you're going too far! Today, I, Qin Lei, will not rest until you're dead!"
"Young Prince!"
Zhen Yifan let out a shout, and immediately, the domain energy of the Sanctuary expanded once again, suppressing everyone present. Qin Lei was the first to bear the brunt of it. It was as if all the power in his body had been imprisoned, and an invisible net of energy bound his body. However, Qin Lei still desperately raised his Battle Energy, to the point where his veins were bulging and streams of blood seeped out of his skin.
The other focal point of the Domain was naturally Lin Muyu. He didn't make a sound, but when he saw fresh blood seeping out from the corner of Qin Lei's mouth, an indescribable rage immediately surged into his heart. The Dou Qi in his body circulated crazily, rapidly increasing. In the next moment, the Dou Qi in his body violently transformed into the Seven Luminaries Profound Energy, and one after another, the Celestial Devil Constellations appeared around his body.
"Break!"
Lin Muyu let out a shout, and immediately, the power of the "Four Luminaries Demon and God Weep" transformed into a strong wind that surged in all directions, forcibly dispersing the domain pressure that Zhen Yifan had condensed. It seemed that Zhen Yifan had also missed this point. He originally thought that the strongest impact would come from Qin Lei, but he didn't expect that Lin Muyu would actually be able to break his Domain with an unknown source of power.
Zhen Yifan's body trembled, and he swayed slightly. The blood in his body was in turmoil, and he felt rather uncomfortable. He frowned, and thought to himself, Where did this brat get such an evil power from?
Once Qin Lei left the Domain, he raised his long blade and rushed out. He leaped into the air, and suddenly slashed his blade down in front of Zhen Yifan. His martial soul surged and exploded, turning everything around him into dust. It was the swift and fierce strike of the Lightning Split Blade Technique — — Four Directional Wild Blade!
"Father!"
Among the Divine Might Battalion's crowd, Zhen Fang raised his sword and rushed over. His Battle Energy was enshrouded in the longsword, and he hastily blocked Qin Lei's attack, protecting Zhen Yifan as he retreated.
However, who knew that the remaining force of Qin Lei's blade was far more than that? The blade suddenly rose from the soil, and he shouted, "Lightning Split Light Slash!"
"Clang!"
Zhen Fang was unable to block it. Although he and Qin Lei had the cultivation of the first level of the Heaven Realm, the disparity between the strength of their martial souls and martial skills was too great. He flew out along with his sword, and landed heavily on the snowy ground.
"Qin Lei!"
Zhen Yifan's voice was like a sudden clap of thunder. He stood majestically in the midst of the mess, and his face was ashen as he said, "I will clarify the whole story with His Majesty regarding Rong Hanyuan's matter. Don't be so overbearing here!"
Qin Lei gritted his teeth so hard that they almost broke. His face was pale, and fresh blood continuously flowed down the Lightning Split Blade. After all, there was a huge gap of three realms between them. No matter how hard he tried, he would never be Zhen Yifan's opponent.
Lin Muyu slowly walked forward, and reached out her hand to hold Qin Lei's shoulder. She said, "A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. Big Brother Qin Lei, just let it go …"
Qin Lei slowly lowered his head. The blood and tears in his eyes mixed together, and his shoulders trembled slightly. At this moment, he was almost swallowed up by unwillingness and anger. Zhen Yifan had killed Rong Hanyuan in front of a group of imperial guards. This was a huge humiliation. Rong Hanyuan had followed Qin Lei for many years, and he had done his duty diligently. However, he ended up like this in the end. Qin Lei could not absolve himself from the blame.
"Yu …"
Qin Lei's arm, which was holding onto the blade, was trembling slightly. His eyes were bloodshot, and he said in a low voice, "If I don't kill Zeng Yifan, I, Qin Lei, swear that I am not a man in this life!"
Lin Muyu nodded, and said, "Alright, I understand …"
…
Zeng Yifan snorted coldly. He helped Zhen Fang up, and led a group of Divine Might Battalion soldiers away ostentatiously.
Qin Lei gritted his teeth, and picked up Rong Hanyuan's head from the ground. His face was pale, and he said, "Use a needle and thread to sew General Song's head and body together. Bury him with the ceremony of a deputy general."
"Yes!"
Chu Huaiying received Rong Hanyuan's head. His brows were tightly knitted, and he allowed the fresh blood to dye his wristguard and battle robe red. He turned around and left.
Qin Lei seemed to have aged a lot. He looked at Lin Muyu, and said, "Yu, you're back?"
"Yes." Lin Muyu didn't know what to say to comfort Qin Lei. She didn't know how deep the friendship between Qin Lei and Rong Hanyuan was, so anything she said would seem to be inappropriate.
Qin Lei held his shoulder, and said, "This time, it's all thanks to you. Otherwise, the consequences would be unthinkable. Zeng Yifan is a dog with wild ambitions. If we let him continue to be so rampant, I'm afraid that our Qin Family's empire will be in danger."
As he spoke, Qin Lei looked at Qin Yin, and said, "Your Highness, shall we go and have an audience with His Majesty? He dared to openly enter Ze Tian Palace Hall today to kill my general. Perhaps he will directly kill his way into Ze Tian Palace Hall tomorrow to make things difficult for His Majesty. "
Qin Yin nodded, "Yes, let's go and see Royal Father now."
At this moment, Lin Muyu's body slightly trembled, and the Seven Luminaries Profound Energy in his body started to backfire. After all, the strength of his soul wasn't enough to control the Fourth Luminaries. This time, he forcefully used the Fourth Luminaries to break Zeng Yifan's domain. Zeng Yifan was fine, but he himself was already injured.
Tang Xiaoxi was attentive, and she hurriedly supported him, and asked, "Mu, are you alright?"
"I'm fine …"
Lin Muyu waved his hand, and forcefully raised his battle qi to resist the Seven Luminaries Profound Energy's backfire. However, it was as if the inside of his body was overturned, and he couldn't recover in a short period of time. Half of the power in his body seemed to have been sucked away by the Seven Luminaries Profound Energy. It seemed that although the Seven Luminaries could allow him to challenge enemies of a higher level, there was a price to pay.
"Big Brother Qin Lei, Her Highness, Xiao Xi."
He looked at the crowd, and said, "When I was fighting with Zeng Yifan just now, I suffered some internal injuries. I'm afraid that my current strength isn't enough to protect all of you. Lin Muyu requests to leave first."
Qin Yin looked at him worriedly, "Yu, do you want me to get the imperial physician to diagnose my internal injuries?"
"No need, thank you, Xiao Yin."
Tang Xiaoxi nodded, and said, "Then Big Brother Qin Lei and Xiao Yin will go see His Majesty, and I'll accompany Yu back?"
"Be careful."
"Mn!"
…
After leaving the Ze Tian Palace, Lin Muyu slowly rode on his warhorse. His face was slightly pale, but after silently circulating the Dragon Forging Bone Remnant Scroll for a few days, the backfire of the Seven Luminaries Profound Energy in his body was forcefully suppressed, and he had also recovered quite a bit of strength. When he arrived at Tongtian Street, he suddenly turned his horse around, and went right.
"Mu, aren't you going back to the Eagle Nest Camp?" Tang Xiaoxi asked in surprise.
"No, I'm going to the Divine Palace first."
"Alright."
Tang Xiaoxi didn't ask for the reason, because she knew that Lin Muyu definitely had his reasons for doing so.
When they arrived at the Divine Palace, a few Divine Palace guards respectfully said, "Madam Lin Muyu, you're back?"
Lin Muyu nodded, and his complexion didn't look too good, so the guards didn't say much, and bowed to Tang Xiaoxi, who was behind him. Tang Xiaoxi waved her hand, indicating that they didn't need to stand on ceremony.
The Divine Palace was silent. Not far away, sounds of fighting could be heard from the training hall. From afar, Qin Yan's entire body was covered with the defensive spirit power of the Dragon Scale Armor Martial Spirit, and he was defending against the sword and blade attacks of a Silver Star Sparring Master. And no matter how the Silver Star Sparring Master attacked, he was unable to break through the defense of the Dragon Scale Armor Martial Spirit. The world's number one defensive martial spirit deserved its reputation.
Lin Muyu didn't disturb Qin Yan's cultivation, and stepped into the inner hall step by step. In the long corridor, Ge Yang was holding a scroll and studying it, and when he raised his head, he saw Lin Muyu, and smiled, "Yu, you've finally returned from your cultivation outside? Did everything go smoothly? "
"En."
Lin Muyu nodded and smiled, "Everything went smoothly, I've already completed the mission. Grandpa Ge Yang, I want to look for Grandpa Lei Hong, is he still in the Divine Palace?"
"Yes, he's here, I'll bring you there now."
"Alright!"
Inside the main hall, Lei Hong sat cross-legged, battle qi lingering around his body, and he was cultivating.
After Lin Muyu, Tang Xiaoxi, and Ge Yang entered, they didn't disturb him, and just sat quietly at the side and waited. Not long after, Lei Hong opened his eyes after one circulation, and said with a smile, "Yu, Princess Xi, you're here?"
"Yes." Tang Xiaoxi smiled.
Lei Hong said, "Since you're here, there must be something, right?"
Lin Muyu asked, "Grandpa Lei Hong, I have something to ask you, and I hope you can answer me truthfully."
"En, ask Yu."
"Grandpa Lei Hong and Zeng Yifan, who's stronger?" Lin Muyu asked directly.
Lei Hong was stunned, stroked his white beard, and said with a smile, "Zeng Yifan is stronger."
"Then, between Grandpa Qu Chu and Zeng Yifan, who's stronger?" Lin Muyu continued to ask.
Lei Hong smiled slightly, "Fire Cauldron Qu Chu, his attainments in the Law of Fire is supreme in the world, and his fire palms are rarely matched, but Zeng Yifan has hidden his strength, so … in my opinion, Qu Chu and Zeng Yifan's strength are on par."
"I understand …"
Lin Muyu let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Grandpa Lei Hong, write a letter and send it to Grandpa Qu Chu, tell him to return to Lanyan City!"
"Why?"
Lei Hong was stunned.
