"Bai Ling City has fallen, the Seven Seas King has committed suicide …"
When he said this, Zeng Yifan's expression was very calm, as if he had already expected all of this to happen.
In the tent, only Luo Xin, Wei Chou, and the others were shocked.
"What about Xiang Yu?" Qin Yin asked.
The messenger cupped his fists and said, "Marquis Pingnan has already seized Sword Pavilion, but he didn't find Qin Yi. Qin Yi seems to have sneaked into the forest to the east of Sword Pavilion to escape."
"Is there any other news?" Qin Yin asked softly.
Zeng Yifan said, "Your Highness, Long Qianlin has led 200,000 troops to Lingnan Province. There are three possible routes he could choose. One is to go to Bai Ling City, another is to Sword Pavilion, and the last is to go to the forest to find Qin Yi. No matter which route he takes, we can't act rashly. Long Qianlin's 200,000 troops aren't that easy to deal with."
"I understand."
At this moment, the messenger said hesitantly, "Your Highness, there's another news from Yu Shu."
"What news?"
"Princess Xi has led 5,000 elite troops to attack Bai Ling City to protect the Seven Seas King. Just yesterday, Princess Xi entered Bai Ling City alone to protect Tang Lan's body. We don't know the situation until now."
"What?" Qin Yin couldn't help but stand up. She felt a sudden pain in her chest and said, "Xiao Xi, she … she saw Tang Lan?"
"Yes."
"10,000 troops, follow me to Sword Pavilion to Bai Ling City."
"What?!" Su Muyun was stunned and said with an intense expression, "Xiao Yin, you can't. Bai Ling City has already fallen into the hands of Yihe Country. Luo Lan and Ouyang Yan, these two strong enemies, haven't made any moves yet. We can't act rashly. If you go to Bai Ling City rashly, it's no different from throwing your life away."
"No, I want to go to Bai Ling City."
Qin Yin's eyes were red as if she was about to cry, "I will pay for the sins I have committed. I can't let Xiao Xi take the punishment for me. No one should try to persuade me. This is an order. Big Brother Yu, lead the Longdan Army Camp and stay here to block the QianFeng Army. Is that alright?"
"Yes."
Lin Muyu nodded. Her heart was filled with mixed feelings as she said, "We must bring Xiao Xi back safely. Also, the advance party of the demon race has already begun to attack Dubhe Province."
Zeng Yifan cupped his fists and said, "Your Highness, this old official thinks that we should send troops to reinforce Dubhe Province first. Your Highness shouldn't abandon such a huge Dubhe Province for Princess Xi."
"Stop it!"
Qin Yin raised her voice and said, "I will never let Xiao Xi down. That's it. Send your troops and follow me. If you don't want to, I will go alone!"
"Your Highness …" Su Muyun muttered, "I shall follow you."
"En!"
…
On the twenty-sixth day of the second month in the year 7736 of the Empire Calendar, after Qin Yin's ten thousand strong army passed through the Sword Garret, the old general Su Muyun fell seriously ill from a cold. That night, the cold wind howled. It was rare for a spring night to be so cold.
Inside the tent, the candlelight flickered.
Su Muyun's old face was heartbreaking under the candlelight. Qin Yin sat at the side with red eyes. She held Su Muyun's hand, tears streaming down her face.
"It's a pity … Su Yu isn't here …"
Su Muyun coughed violently and said, "I seem to … I seem to have seen a scene from twenty years ago. I saw … I saw Su Qin, Su Yu, and Xiao Yin's mother, Su Yun. They are all still here … I … I saw the Emperor Qin Jin's favor descend upon the Su Family. I … I saw the day you were born, I …"
"Grandfather … Grandfather, stop it." Qin Yin's tears fell like rain.
"No, let me say it. If I don't say it now, I won't have the chance to say it in the future. " Su Muyun held Qin Yin's hand tightly and said with a dejected expression, "I'm not a good grandfather. For the sake of the Su Family, I've done many things that let the Qin Family down. Xiao Yin, don't blame grandfather. As the saying goes, when a man is about to die, his words are kind, and when a bird is about to die, its cry is sorrowful. Grandfather … cough cough cough … Grandfather has worked hard in this life so that the Su Family can rise again, so that the Su Family can continue to prosper. But … the more I walk down this path, the darker it gets. I can't see the end … and I can't see hope. Only now, grandfather finally understands … cough cough cough …"
Su Muyun coughed out a pool of blood and panted heavily. He was on the verge of breaking down. After resting for a while, he continued, "I finally understand, Xiao Yin, you are my future. You are a descendant of the Su Family. Half of the Su Family's blood flows through your veins. I … Why was I so foolish and did so many foolish things … If I had known this would happen, I definitely wouldn't have allowed Qin Jin to head to the Fairy Lake. I … I will never be able to repay my mistakes …"
Qin Yin sobbed and said, "Grandfather, don't say it anymore. Xiao Yin knows that grandfather will always be a loyal subject of the Cloud Middle Province. Su Muyun, you will always be. I know it, and Father definitely knows it too."
"No, there is no such thing as a loyal subject in this world …" Su Muyun's smile was extremely miserable. He said, "I hate … I hate Qin Jin for wanting to kill Su Qin so ruthlessly. That was my only son … Xiao Yin, Xiao Yin … Can you forgive grandfather?"
"Yes, I can …" Qin Yin said as she sobbed.
"Alright, Luo Xin, come here."
Luo Xin walked to the bed and knelt on the ground. Her eyes were red. "Father."
"Luo Xin, my son." Su Muyun panted heavily. "Swear here that you will forever be loyal to the Qin family and to the Empire."
"Yes, Luo Xin swears that I will forever be loyal to the Qin family and to the Empire!"
"Good …"
Su Muyun revealed a gratified smile, but this smile also slowly froze on his face.
Su Muyun died of illness!
At this point, the two most powerful subjects of the Qin Empire, Tang Lan had committed suicide and Su Muyun had died of a cold during the march. The era of the two dukes ruling the Qin Empire had finally come to an end!
…
At noon on the 27th day of the second month of the Empire's calendar, Qin Yin met up with Xiang Yu. A total of 60,000 soldiers arrived outside Bai Ling City. They met up with Tang Zhen's 5,000 men who had been attacking the city for a long time.
"Your Highness."
Tang Zhen dismounted and walked on the muddy road outside the city. He cupped his fists and said, "Bai Ling City is very sturdy. The seven World Palaces have sent reinforcements. Now, in addition to the 50,000 men gathered by the Northern Qi Prefecture, we have not been able to attack for a long time. What should we do?"
"Is there Xiao Yin's Xiao Xi?"
"Not at the moment, but I heard … I heard that Princess Xi killed many people in the city. Many people …"
"I will enter the city first. You guys continue to attack," Qin Yin said lightly.
Luo Xin hurriedly said, "No, wait, Your Highness. It is too dangerous for you to enter the city alone."
"No, I have no other choice."
Qin Yin slowly untied the belt of the empress's cloak and threw the luxurious cloak into the mud. She left behind her sword and charged forward with a light shout. With a bang, under the impact of Qin Yin's divine power, a crack appeared in the air. She disappeared in an instant. The god-level expert's ability to shatter the void shocked Xiang Yu, Luo Xin, Tang Zhen, and the others.
Swoosh!
When she reappeared, she was already in the city. However, what greeted her eyes were piles of corpses. Flies were flying around, and her nostrils were filled with the strong smell of blood. Qin Yin couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart. She flew through the air and saw that the street was already filled with corpses. There were civilians and soldiers. Only God knew how many people Tang Xiaoxi had killed.
She walked for a full five kilometers and saw corpses piled up everywhere.
In the distance, tyrannical forces rose and fell. There, a beautiful demon fox was waving her arms, and the blood-red claws that were several meters long tore the mercenaries' bodies into pieces.
Pfft!
Tang Xiaoxi opened her mouth, and a pair of exquisite fangs pierced into the neck of a mercenary, ruthlessly tearing off a piece of flesh. She spat it out, and at the same time, she also sensed the arrival of an expert. She raised her head, and her golden eyes looked at Qin Yin, who was standing in the air. Suddenly, the corners of her mouth rose, and she laughed, "Qin Yin, are you here to see a joke?"
"Xiao Xi …"
Qin Yin was dumbfounded. She instantly felt as if a knife was twisting in her heart. "I … I didn't …"
"Really?"
Tang Xiaoxi burst into laughter. Her laughter was extremely ferocious, and her eyes were filled with wildness as she said, "You asked my grandfather to bring only one person to guard Bai Ling City. How vicious is it to kill someone with a borrowed knife? Qin Yin, you despicable woman. How much better are you than me now? Hahaha … Are you going to kill me? Come on, I heard that your cultivation has improved a lot. Let me see! "
The Tang Xiaoxi in front of her was obviously not the Tang Xiaoxi anymore.
"Xiao Xi, don't …" Qin Yin was trembling all over.
"Come on!"
Tang Xiaoxi suddenly shouted, and the flames on her body surged. She entered the state of transformation. She jumped up, and her blood-red claws came down heavily from the air.
Qin Yin subconsciously gathered her strength, and a Celestial Dragon Crystal was placed in front of her chest!
"Bang!"
The two divine powers collided. Tang Xiaoxi's blood-red claws were no match for the Celestial Dragon Crystal and were broken. However, this was just a body of energy. She waved her arms and gathered her claws again. She attacked crazily. "Did you see my grandfather's body? Is this what you want? "
Tang Xiaoxi roared. She launched the God's Seal and the God's Kill Seal at the same time!
"Boom, boom!"
The two attacks were completely blocked by the protective wall of the Celestial Dragon Crystal. Through the broken pieces of energy, Qin Yin looked at Tang Xiaoxi with tears in her eyes. She said, "Xiao Xi, come back …"
Tang Xiaoxi's golden eyes were full of ruthlessness and sarcasm. She said, "You used all your tricks to kill my grandfather. Do you think a bad woman like you deserves Lin Muyu? Do you? "
"I … I don't deserve …"
Qin Yin burst into tears.
"Pfft!"
Tang Xiaoxi suddenly got close to Qin Yin. Her blood-red claws pierced through Qin Yin's chest. Blood flowed down her fingers. However, the protective power of the Celestial Dragon Crystal was extremely strong. With seven Celestial Dragon Crystals whirling around them at the same time, Tang Xiaoxi would not be able to resist it.
However, Qin Yin gently loosened her grip, and the Celestial Dragon Crystals scattered.
"Why? Are you showing mercy to me?"
Tang Xiaoxi smiled ferociously. She suddenly pulled out her claws and pierced them into Qin Yin's chest again. She laughed and said, "Can this Godhead of yours protect you?"
"Stop, Little Xi …" Sparkling and translucent tears rolled down Qin Yin's cheeks. She endured the immense pain and said, "We promised that we would never break our promise. Little Xi, don't, stop … It hurts so much …"
Tang Xiaoxi's golden eyes were full of mockery. "Break, Godhead!"
"Buzz, buzz, buzz …"
Qin Yin's Overgod lattice flew out of her Yi Sea and gathered between the two of them. It shone with a dazzling golden light, but it was buzzing and trembling. With the death of its master, this Overgod lattice was about to self-destruct!
"Xiao Xi …"
Qin Yin stretched out her bloodied palm and gently caressed Tang Xiaoxi's face. "Come back quickly, this is not the real you. In the future … I can no longer accompany Ah-Yu. You … you have to love him together with my love …" Tang Xiaoxi said.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz …"
The Godhead spun madly and shattered. The self-destruction had begun!
At that moment, the golden light in Tang Xiaoxi's eyes finally dimmed. She suddenly woke up and saw her finger piercing Qin Yin's heart. Instantly, Tang Xiaoxi burst into tears. "I … I … No … Xiao Yin, I …"
"Swoosh!"
Before dying, the Celestial Dragon Crystal in Qin Yin's hand flickered and turned into a crystal pillar that protected Tang Xiaoxi. At that moment, the Godhead finally exploded.
Tang Xiaoxi saw a scene that she would never forget for the rest of her life. Qin Yin's body was instantly smashed by the Godhead's explosion. However, the Celestial Dragon Crystal that was formed from the last bit of her strength lingered around Tang Xiaoxi.
…
"Bang!"
A massive explosion rang out. The power of the Overgod spark's explosion was unimaginable. In the blink of an eye, the ground was reduced to dust, and it was as if the end of the world had come. Everything was destroyed, and a blood-red abyss appeared in the ground. Lightning descended from the sky.
…
"Ah …"
Standing by the sand table, Lin Muyu suddenly felt a tearing pain in her heart. She couldn't help but kneel on the ground. Her eyes blurred and tears flowed down her cheeks.
The second volume, "Fireworks", ended. Riches and glory in life are like fireworks, fleeting clouds and smoke. Qin Yin died for Tang Xiaoxi. No one knows if it was worth it or not. We are the same. After experiencing it, we feel that it was wrong. However, some mistakes are the most beautiful memories. At the most wrong time, we always meet the right person. There is no need to hate. All we can do is be grateful and look forward to the future. Next, I will enter the third volume, "Three Kings Rule the World". I hope everyone likes the Spiritual Cultivation Realm. This is a novel written by Ye Zihua with great effort.
