Soon, Qin Yuan's body lay motionless on the ground. His blood dyed the ground red.
Countless gazes froze there. The silence in the palace was frighteningly silent.
Qin Yuan, the youngest son of the king of Qin, came to the Liu Kingdom to propose. Now, he died in the palace. No matter what the reason was, he was already dead. Then, what would the consequences be?
Many lords and officials had extremely cold expressions. They stared at Ye Wuchen as if they wanted to swallow him whole.
The king of Liu also looked at Ye Wuchen with a complicated expression. He was extremely unsettled.
Could he blame Ye Wuchen? He did it for his daughter Chenyu. His death seemed to have been decided.
So what if he was the Swordsman of the seventh summit of the Fuyun Sword Clan? The person he killed was the youngest son of the king of Qin. Even if the son of the Fuyun Sword Clan leader dared to do this, there would only be one ending.
But Ye Wuchen didn't hesitate and slashed out with his sword. He was extremely decisive. Even at this moment, his eyes were firm and cold. His one-armed figure was still standing straight.
Seeing this, Liu Chenyu's face was already full of tears. The pain in her heart couldn't even compare to the warmth brought by the sword.
When Qin Yuan did such a crazy thing, in her own home, in the palace of the Liu Kingdom, the nobles and ministers did not speak up for her. They did not punish Qin Yuan. They were even discussing marrying her to Qin Yuan. How ridiculous was this? How despairing was this?
That was why she stabbed herself with a sharp blade. She was too desperate. She wanted to tell these people her attitude, even if it meant death.
Even her father, the king of Liu, was hesitating. But Ye Wuchen slashed out with his sword. The person who insulted her had to die.
She looked at Ye Wuchen with her beautiful eyes, and there was an unparalleled determination in them. No matter what happened to him in this life, she would be by his side.
If he lived, she lived; if he died, she died!
People from various forces watched this scene from afar. They all had different thoughts.
As for Qin Li, deep in his cold eyes, there seemed to be a cold smile.
Was he finally dead?
Of course, he knew why Qin Yuan looked at him like that before he died. Qin Yuan wasn't stupid. On the contrary, he was very smart. He was the one who ordered Qin Yuan to do this. Just now, he naturally had the chance to save Qin Yuan, but he didn't.
Because this was the real plan!
Who would have thought that it would come true just like that?
Even Qin Yuan himself did not know the purpose of this marriage proposal. Only he knew.
Marriage proposal?
Marriage alliance?
There was no need. The Qin Dynasty had no intention of forming a marriage alliance with the Liu Kingdom. This kind of binding was meaningless. Emperor Liu was an old fox. At most, he would only sacrifice Liu Chenyu. He would not truly listen to the Qin Dynasty.
What the Qin Dynasty really needed now was a battle that would shake the entire Eastern Barren Territory.
Not only did they need to fight, but they also needed to achieve a sweeping victory. This was an urgent need.
Just as King Liu thought, the disciples of the Cottage had already grown to such a level. Should they still wait for them?
They had already made many arrangements. Now, they needed a battle to ignite the entire situation.
Thus, if he were to stop Qin Yuan, unless Emperor Liu was determined to kill him, who else would be able to kill Qin Yuan?
With Ye Wuchen's strength?
Qin Li was very excited. A bastard had died and he had completed his plan perfectly. How could he not be excited? Of course, he would not show it. At the moment, his body was filled with cold murderous intent.
The people of the Qin Imperial City all walked over to Qin Yuan's side. Their cold aura filled the entire space. It was extremely terrifying.
"Take him down," a cold voice sounded.
The first to give the order was actually the ministers of the Liu Kingdom. Their expressions were extremely cold as they stared at Ye Wuchen.
Although Ye Wuchen had killed Qin Yuan, he had died in the Liu Kingdom's imperial palace. He was here to propose marriage.
Sword aura whistled. The strong cultivators of the seventh summit of the Fuyun Sword Clan landed before Ye Wuchen, guarding him.
"Who dares?" Liu Feiyang shouted angrily. He was still supporting Liu Chenyu.
Liu Chenyu lifted her feet and dragged her injured body towards Ye Wuchen.
Ye Futian's expression was cold. He also stared at the people around him. These bastards.
He naturally knew what would happen if Ye Wuchen killed Qin Yuan but he did not stop him. Qin Yuan was his woman. If something like this happened to Hua Jieyu, how could he not kill him?
If Ye Wuchen did not kill Qin Yuan, he would no longer be himself. His sword would no longer be sharp.
"People of the seventh summit, move aside."
Just then, another strong cultivator whizzed over. It was the strong cultivator of the first summit of the Fuyun Sword Clan. Zhe Song stared at Ye Wuchen with murderous intent.
Ye Wuchen was from the Fuyun Sword Clan. He had killed Qin Yuan and had to be abandoned. Why would the seventh summit protect him? Wouldn't it affect the Fuyun Sword Clan?
Sword intent flowed around the strong cultivator of the seventh summit. Terrifying sword aura whistled and he did not retreat at all.
The sword of the seventh summit would not give way to the enemy.
Qin Yuan deserved to die.
The atmosphere in the palace was extremely oppressive. Qin Yuan's corpse was still lying on the ground, but no one cared about his death. At that moment, everyone only cared about the consequences of Qin Yuan's death. They were all thinking about their own interests.
Liu Chenyu came to Ye Wuchen's side and stared at him with her beautiful eyes. A storm had turned the previously calm feelings into passion. She walked to Ye Wuchen's side and leaned on him quietly.
Ye Wuchen also looked at her. He reached out his right arm and hugged her gently.
Lifting his head, he looked at the people around him. There was no fear in his eyes. If he was afraid of death, he would not have killed them.
Liu Feiyang looked at the two people who were surrounded by strong cultivators. The scene at the moment was so warm. His eyes flashed with terrifying red light as he stared at the king of Liu and shouted, "Father!"
The king of Liu's heart trembled. He was also affected by the scene and felt guilty.
That was his daughter. She was bullied in the imperial palace but as her father, he could not stand up for her. Ye Wuchen had done it instead.
What had his subordinates done? They wanted his daughter to marry the person who insulted her.
Crack. Clenching his fists, the king's eyes were extremely cold.
"Uncle." Just then, Qin Li came to Qin Yuan's body and said, "You came to the Liu Kingdom to propose marriage and wanted to marry the princess in glory. You did not expect this to happen."
Then, he raised his head and glanced at the king and Ye Wuchen coldly. "Your Majesty, how do you think we should resolve this?"
"What do you want?" the king asked.
"Let me take the three of them away? And the people from the seventh summit of Fuyun Sword Clan today, please kill them on the spot, "Qin Li said. He wanted to take Ye Wuchen, Liu Chenyu, and Liu Feiyang away. He wanted the people of the Liu Kingdom to kill the people from the seventh summit of Fuyun Sword Clan.
"What if I don't agree?" the king asked.
"My uncle will not die for nothing." Qin Li's tone was cold but he seemed extremely domineering.
"Your Majesty, think of the big picture." Lord Kang and the others bowed to the king. Many people tried to persuade the king.
"Scram."
King Liu looked at those people and spat out a cold voice.
The officials were stunned. Seeing the king's expression, they bowed and retreated.
Qin Li saw this and sneered. This was naturally the expected ending.
"I understand Your Majesty's attitude," Qin Li said. Then, he looked at Zhe Song of the first summit of Fuyun Sword Clan and asked, "What about Fuyun Sword Clan's attitude?"
"Prince Qin's death was not the intention of Fuyun Sword Clan. As for Ye Wuchen, do you want him dead or alive?" Zhe Song asked coldly.
"Anything is fine." Qin Li smiled.
"Okay." Zhe Song nodded and stepped forward. A terrifying sword aura swept through the air, covering Ye Wuchen, Liu Chenyu, and the others. The strong cultivators behind him all stepped forward.
"Scram," the king said.
King Liu spat out another word, his gaze landing on Zhe Song.
Zhe Song's expression froze. Looking up at the king, he said, "This is Fuyun Sword Clan's internal matter. Your Majesty, are you going to interfere?"
"This is the Liu Kingdom's imperial palace," the king replied coldly.
Zhe Song looked at the king and then at Qin Li. "It seems that I can only go back and report. From now on, Ye Wuchen is no longer a disciple of Fuyun Sword Clan. Fuyun Sword Clan will take care of anyone who protects him."
"Okay, I believe in Fuyun Sword Clan." Qin Li nodded. Zhe Song turned and left with the strong cultivators of the first summit.
Qin Li looked at the king and then bowed. "Your Majesty, farewell."
With that, the people of Qin Dynasty took Qin Yuan's corpse and prepared to leave.
"Wait," a voice said.
Suddenly, a voice sounded. Qin Li stopped. He slowly turned around and looked at Ye Futian.
"You ordered Qin Yuan to do this, right?" Ye Futian asked. Qin Li's eyes froze. He stared at Ye Futian. "What are you talking about?"
"From the beginning, the marriage proposal wasn't your final goal. You don't seem sad or angry at all about Qin Yuan's death." Ye Futian cultivated Freedom Meditation and was very sensitive to other people's emotions. Not only was Qin Li not sad, but Ye Futian could also sense excitement from him.
It was as if he had always been looking forward to it.
Thinking of the previous abnormalities, he suddenly understood that Qin Dynasty never wanted to unite with the Liu Kingdom through marriage.
Qin Dynasty wanted to rule the world and the College Cottage was their biggest opponent. They had already allied with many forces. Liu Chenyu and Ye Wuchen of the Liu Kingdom were closer to him.
After today's incident, the Liu Kingdom would face great danger. Ye Wuchen was the same.
"Qin Yuan is my uncle and my father's younger brother. My grandfather doted on him a lot. What are you thinking?" Qin Li stared at Ye Futian and said coldly. "You want to shirk responsibility and push my uncle's death to a conspiracy? What a joke. "
"I'm thinking if you had the same expression as Qin Yuan when you died." Ye Futian looked at Qin Li and didn't argue with him anymore.
Qin Yuan was already dead. All arguments were meaningless. As long as they had this excuse, it was enough to cause a bloodbath in the Eastern Barren Territory.
