Hao Mingjun shook his head helplessly again. He could only sigh in his heart.
He was actually very unwilling to see things turn out this way. He didn't want things to turn out this way. He never wanted things to turn out this way.
But there was nothing he could do. This wasn't something he could control. It was Monarch Burner and Sacred Sovereign Xia Du working together under Anshui Youhuang's bewitchment. They launched an attack on him and seized power. In the end, things turned out this way.
Now, he had the heart to resolve this matter. He could also make some concessions.
But it was clearly impossible to return to the past. The model of the past was no longer accepted.
There were some things that couldn't be repaired once a crack appeared.
So, Hao Mingjun could only feel helpless. There was nothing he could do.
Since that was the case, he had no choice but to kill Monarch Burner for the sake of the big picture.
If he didn't kill Monarch Burner, the trouble wouldn't end here.
Although killing Conflagration Monarch didn't necessarily mean that the trouble would be over, at least he had killed Conflagration Monarch's clone. He had also greatly damaged Conflagration Monarch's strength.
Sacred Sovereign Xia Du's clone had been killed. If Monarch Burner's clone was killed as well, Hao Mingjun wouldn't have to worry about anything in the future. He would be able to deal with it himself.
"Qin Xiao brat!!!"
Monarch Burner suddenly clenched his teeth and glared at Qin Xiao. The anger in his voice had reached its peak.
It was clear how deep his hatred for Qin Xiao was. It was so deep that it reached his bones.
Qin Xiao looked at Monarch Burner indifferently. He didn't care about his hatred or his anger.
"Who the hell are you? Who the hell are you? What enmity do you have with me, Monarch Burner? Why do you have to treat me like this? Why? "
"Even if I die, I won't let you go. Absolutely not."
"My life's work, my life's work, my life's work, I've finally gotten what I wanted. But you, Qin Xiao, destroyed it all."
"Hahaha, you're so ruthless, so ruthless, so ruthless. You're thousands of times more ruthless than killing me."
Monarch Burner's eyes had turned red long ago. They were filled with blood, blood that burned with anger.
His eyes were as big as a cow's, and they were filled with endless hatred as he stared at Qin Xiao.
The person he hated the most wasn't Hao Mingjun's. It was Qin Xiao's.
There was nothing much to be said about the battle between him and Hao Mingjun.
Since he had lost, he could only admit defeat. Losing to Hao Mingjun, he had nothing to say.
However, this time, he had not lost to Hao Mingjun. He had lost to the young man in front of him.
So, he couldn't accept it. He couldn't accept the cruel truth.
Qin Xiao curled her lips and chuckled softly. "Even if you forcefully snatch something that doesn't belong to you, it's useless."
"Even if you get something that doesn't belong to you, you'll lose it quickly. That's fate. That's fate. That's something you can't defy."
"You have no enmity with me. You're just unlucky that you ran into us. You just happened to be dealing with the father of our good friend. That's all."
"To put it bluntly, you're just unlucky. That's all."
"Actually, who I am isn't important. No matter who I am, I'm not someone you can afford to offend. "
"So, let me give you a piece of advice. His clone was about to die, so it would be better for him to leave his original body behind and not do such meaningless things. Otherwise, your original body won't be able to live for long. "
"Hmph, are you a coward? You don't dare to tell me who you are? I think you're just afraid that I'll take revenge on you. That's why you don't dare to say anything. " Emperor Fen sneered and said with disdain, "Forget it if you don't dare to say anything. I know your name anyway. It's not difficult for me to find out who you are."
Qin Xiao was just being disdainful. However, Emperor Fen made it sound like that.
Of course, Qin Xiao knew that he was just trying to goad him.
Qin Xiao couldn't be bothered. He said, "Then take your time. I'll send you on your way first."
After saying that, Qin Xiao didn't hold back and directly attacked, instantly killing Emperor Fen with a single sword strike. There was no suspense as well, it was a one-hit kill.
So far, the two vice-palace lords, Emperor Fen and Holy Sovereign Xia Du, had both died at Qin Xiao's hands.
Hao Mingjun's two biggest enemies had been killed by Qin Xiao in a domineering manner.
The remaining fifty or so people were naturally no longer a threat. They were no threat at all.
After dealing with Emperor Fen, Qin Xiao glanced at Hao Mingjun, indicating that he could continue. There were still many things for him to deal with.
Hao Mingjun cast a grateful look at Qin Xiao. Then, he looked at the fifty elites.
Now, these elite troops were like a dragon without a leader. Both of their heads were killed by Qin Xiao. Now, they were actually very anxious. They were both shocked and terrified. Their minds were incomparably tense. They did not know what kind of tragic fate was waiting for them.
Hao Mingjun looked at them for a while and said, "I know that some of you are loyal to Monarch Fen and Sacred Sovereign Xia Du, but there are also some who used to follow me. This time, you might have been forced to join Monarch Fen and Sacred Sovereign Xia Du. I don't blame you."
"So now, I'll give you a chance to make a choice."
"If there are still some of you who are loyal to Emperor Fen and Holy Sovereign Xia Du, then pack your things and leave the Sacred Water Palace. Don't stay behind to do anything."
"If you're disloyal and want to stay behind to do something for Emperor Fen and Holy Sovereign Xia Du, don't blame me for being merciless once I find out."
"Now, for the sake of your past, I can let you live. You can take your families and leave. I promise that I will not do anything to you. I will not stop you. You can leave without any worries."
"Those who are willing to turn over a new leaf and pledge their loyalty to the Sacred Water Palace are naturally welcomed by me."
"We're all one family. It's just that people like Emperor Fen and Holy Sovereign Xia Du who want to seize power have divided our Sacred Water Palace."
"But no matter how divided we are, our Sacred Water Palace has always been one. We've always been one family."
"Alright, I'll give you some time to think about it. Once you've thought it through, you can make your choice. No matter what you choose, I'll respect you. "
Hao Mingjun's words carried a lot of weight.
Since he'd said it and made a solemn promise, he wouldn't lie. He still had that bit of integrity.
The fifty or so elites all began to think carefully. This was a decision that concerned their future and fate.
The situation should've been decided. Although Emperor Fen and Holy Sovereign Xia Du's true bodies weren't dead, they shouldn't be able to cause any trouble.
The Sacred Water Palace was still the Sacred Water Palace. It'd just gone through a great tribulation and returned to its original path.
However, the tribulation would indeed severely damage the Sacred Water Palace's vitality.
Soon, someone made a decision and was the first to stand out.
"Palace Lord, I've let you and the Sacred Water Palace down. However, I've received Emperor Fen's favor since I was young. His true body isn't dead yet, so I'm afraid he'll recruit me again. If that happens, I won't be able to back down and won't be a human. Therefore, I'll leave the Sacred Water Palace with my family. "
"However, I'm very grateful to the Sacred Water Palace for nurturing me and taking care of my family all these years. I'll forever remember this great kindness."
"Although I've left the Sacred Water Palace, I promise that I won't make an enemy out of the Sacred Water Palace in the future. Thank you, Palace Lord!"
He was a first-step empyrean saint.
After he finished speaking, the other people immediately began to speak one after another.
However, most of them chose to leave.
It wasn't surprising. After all, there was a great risk involved. If Emperor Fen and Holy Sovereign Xia Du's true bodies were dead, then things would be easier. There wouldn't be any worries at all.
However, the problem was that their true bodies weren't dead. Given Emperor Fen's temperament, he wouldn't give up just like that. He'd definitely do something else.
Although he wouldn't make a comeback, he definitely wouldn't give up so easily.
Therefore, this was what those who'd followed Emperor Fen were worried about.
With that in mind, the safest way was to leave the Sacred Water Palace and find a place to hide for a while.
At least, they could settle their families down first.
Since things had come to this point, there was no other way.
In the end, more than 30 people chose to leave the Sacred Water Palace. Half of the empyrean saints also left.
There were less than 20 people left. They were the most elite forces of the Sacred Water Palace.
Originally, the Sacred Water Palace's elite force had more than 100 people. Now, only a pitiful number was left.
This time, the Holy Water Palace's vitality was indeed greatly damaged. The damage was very, very severe.
As promised, Hao Mingjun allowed those who chose to leave to leave. As for those who chose to stay, he was naturally very happy and forgave them generously. He also gave them some warnings and rewards.
He was very grateful that they chose to stay, but he also hoped that they would stay wholeheartedly and really make up for their mistakes. They would really contribute to the prosperity of the Sacred Water Palace.
After dealing with these people, the situation was basically under Hao Mingjun's complete control. Hao Mingjun naturally returned to the Holy Water Palace and regained his position as the Palace Lord. Everyone submitted to him and was under his leadership. All the people were loyal to him.
Only Hao Mingjun had the ability to rally people and have such supreme prestige. He could make everyone unite quickly and form a powerful force.
The people were united and the Sacred Water Palace regained its glory.
Although the Sacred Water Palace had suffered a great loss this time, the Sacred Water Palace's prestige was quickly restored under Hao Mingjun's powerful rallying power.
The people were united. That was naturally a powerful and terrifying force.
In the end, there was only one problem left. How to deal with the Anshui Youhuang?
"Haha, Hao Mingjun, you're really something. You actually found such a powerful helper to let you take back the power of the Sacred Water Palace. "
"It wasn't easy for me to find something fun. I've already succeeded. It's completely under my control."
"I didn't expect that I would still be defeated in the end. You're really something. You can find such two powerful young people. "
"Hao Mingjun, you're really lucky. But I'm afraid this kind of luck won't happen a second time."
Although the Anshui Youhuang was trapped at this moment, he didn't seem to be afraid at all.
