It was already dusk, and the sky was getting dark.
The autumn rain was getting heavier, and the cold rainwater hit the stone ground, creating countless splashes.
Such late autumn weather was very cold. Even Innate Realm experts were not willing to stay in the rain for too long. Otherwise, the cold would seep into their bones. When they grew old, it would easily cause rheumatism and illness.
Such an autumn rain and such a dusk added a tinge of sadness and the somber atmosphere of late autumn. There was an unusual atmosphere everywhere in Yujing City. The air was so heavy that it was suffocating. Every household had closed their doors and windows, especially those of the rich and aristocrats. At this time, there should have been many servants cleaning the courtyards and sweeping the leaves that had been swept down by the autumn rain, but now there was not a single one.
Because the streets were densely packed with imperial guards. There was a sentry every few steps, and teams of armored heavy cavalry, as well as the "Ghost Head Saber Soldiers" with heavy sabers on their backs. The five battalions of the imperial guards, as well as the Warden's Office of Yujing City, had all been mobilized!
The long streets of five kilometers were all sealed off. Even some of the ditches, sewers, and Golden River were heavily guarded. Sabers and spears gleamed, and a murderous aura emanated from them.
At the same time, blood qi was roiling.
At this time, if there were people who practiced Dao techniques watching from the void, they would realize that the entire sky above Yujing City was filled with rolling blood qi. Who knew how many Wu Sheng's and how many Dao technique experts were among them?
Just as the entire city was sealed off, the eunuchs were mobilized, and every household closed their doors, Yujing City, which had a population of nearly ten million, was completely sealed off. It was like an iron plate, and all the city gates were closed!
In addition, there were many eunuchs on the streets. They kept coming and going in the rain, and those who had no business were all driven back to their houses.
With such a commotion, everyone knew that something big was about to happen!
In fact, there was no lack of well-informed aristocratic families in Yujing City. The rich and powerful, the aristocrats, and the eyes and ears of the various academies. Now they all knew that the Emperor had issued a decree to arrest Prince Yu and confiscate his property! His crime was forming a clique for personal gain and conspiring against the law!
In the past few months, the imperial court had first set up the "Grand Council," which had obviously excluded Prince Yu. Everyone in the world knew that the imperial court was exerting pressure on the Zhouyi Academy!
The struggle between the imperial court and Prince Yu was the struggle between the Zhouyi Academy and Hong Xuanji, the emperor.
Now, Hong Yi was the saint of the world, Yi Zi. As for the Big Heaven Emperor, he was the Sovereign of the Nine Five, while Hong Xuanji was the Grand Preceptor of Yin and Yang. On one hand, it was the leader of the scholarly community, the leader of the righteous path of the world. On the other hand, it was the unification of the world. The struggle between the two caused many people to secretly plot.
As soon as the imperial court removed Prince Yu, the Zhouyi Academy acted as expected. Once they acted, they did so with great fanfare. The governors of the world were stirred up. Every day, tens of thousands of memorials were sent to the imperial court.
The might of the Zhouyi Academy's move also allowed everyone in the world to see how great Hong Yi's power was! Young Marshal, Champion Marquis, Mighty God King, Yuan Tu, Divine Wind! The hundreds of governors and governors of the four great sage clans could all be mobilized at once!
Everyone had thought that the Imperial Court would remain silent, but no one had imagined that Qian Emperor Yang Pan would be so unyielding! He immediately acted, intending to take down Prince Yu and convict him of the crime of treason!
All of these ruthless methods were dazzling.
At the moment when the imperial court sent troops and issued a decree to take down Prince Yu and confiscate his property … Thousands of forces in Yujing City, big and small, went into hiding and discussed. The news spread through all kinds of secret channels.
In almost half a day, many major forces knew what was about to happen in Yujing City.
Such a huge matter had been stirred up vigorously for two months. It had been brewing, and now that the volcano had erupted, it was impossible to cover it up.
…
"Where did Prince Yu go?"
At this moment, in Prince Yu's Prince's Mansion, the outside three layers were densely packed with bows and crossbows. There were even armored soldiers armed with iron pipes and strange weapons in their hands. It was so tight that not even a drop of water could pass through. Beside the Prince's Mansion, there were originally 20 to 30 li long streets. Now, it was densely packed with soldiers.
There were even vague shadows circling in the sky. No one knew what kind of mysterious ghosts or gods they were!
It was obvious that Qian Emperor Yang Pan had suddenly issued the order to capture Prince Yu. He had put in a lot of effort and did not mind revealing some of his strength. For example, he had even taken out the mysterious "Firearms Barracks".
The soldiers who stood there motionlessly, wielding pitch-black metal pipes and wearing waterproof coats, were all Xiantian experts. It was unknown how many of them there were. They were the legendary Firearms Battalion. They were even more mysterious than the Qiankun Dragon Guards and were one of the most elite troops in the Great Qian Dynasty.
Other than that, the Righteous Sect and many of Fang Xiandao's Taoist priests were also among them. Sword Qi could be faintly seen, and it was unknown how many experts were hidden among them.
Hong Xi, who was wearing a purplish-gold cloak and holding a treasured saber in his hand, stood in the middle of Prince Yu's Royal Residence like two flying swords. Behind him was a group of experts in armor.
Hong Xi's expression was much more solemn. He always had a faint smile on his face. His powerful Qi and blood roiled in his body.
Ever since he received the "Golden Immortal Primordial Spirit" from Realm Beyond Heaven's leader Xu Yi, he had been imparted with peerless mystiques and forcibly raised to the Human Immortal realm. He had also put on the Golden Immortal Cloak. Now, he was a level one Human Immortal expert. After these days of hard work, he had mastered everything and his cultivation had skyrocketed.
It could be said that with his "Golden Immortal Cloak" and various mystiques, he could fight against experts who had undergone six Lightning Tribulations. One had to know that the Golden Immortal Cloak was an existence equivalent to the Tianmang Horn Godly Armor.
Now, Hong Xi stood in the courtyard and looked at the experts of Prince Yu's Mansion kneeling in the rain. He felt extremely pleased.
Walking in front of an expert, Hong Xi asked, "I'll ask you again! Where did Prince Yu go? Did he go to the Zhou Yi Academy? "
"Ptui!"
Although this expert of the Prince Yu's Mansion was tied up and forced to kneel in the rain, he was unyielding. He spat at Hong Xi.
"You're courting death!"
Hong Xi's entire body trembled. On top of his Golden Immortal Cloak, a wave of frigid true energy burst forth, directly freezing the spit into a block of ice. Then, he made a grabbing motion with one hand. Crack! Above his five fingers, a wave of flame-like True Qi burst out, piercing through the expert's head.
"Ah!"
The expert of Prince Yu's Mansion let out a tragic cry. His body burned with purplish-gold flames, and with a rumble, he turned into a stream of blood Qi that burrowed into Hong Xi's forehead.
Hong Xi stood up and let out a long breath, feeling as comfortable as if he had taken a longevity ointment.
"Blood Transformation Mystique! The supreme martial art of the Primordial Fiendgod Dao. It can absorb a person's blood essence to replenish oneself. Every time one kills, one's energy will increase! "
Hong Xi's action attracted the attention of many experts present, especially Saber Sage Gong Yangyu, Wei Taicang, and the other experts of the Cosmic Guard.
"Commander Xi, His Majesty has only issued a decree to check on Prince Yu's property. You killed a guard just like that. Isn't that a little too cruel?" Chief Eunuch Wang Tao held the imperial edict in his hand and stood under the eaves. A few junior eunuchs followed behind him. When he saw Hong Xi kill someone, he could not help but frown.
"Oh? His Majesty has decreed that Prince Yu intends to rebel and formed a clique for personal gain. Now that this guard is plotting to rebel and wants to harm me, I naturally have to kill him! "Hong Xi said coldly, but an emotion rose in his heart." Today, it's Prince Yu, Hong Yi! It won't be long before it's your turn! One day, I'll tie you up, you little bastard, and suck your blood dry. I'll make you beg for death! "
"Young Master Xi, just now, the two of us used a secret technique to search this Prince Yu's Mansion, but we didn't find any traces of Prince Yu. Now, the entire Prince Yu's Mansion, 3,439 servants, 1,730 maidservants, as well as housekeepers, warriors, accountants, etc., a total of 8,400 people, have all been captured and are kneeling in the backyard!"
At this moment, a man dressed in red and a man dressed in white walked over with a scepter in his hand. He bowed to Hong Xi and addressed him as Young Master Xi. These two people were Blood God and Dharma God. Obviously, these two great deities had completely followed Hong Xi.
"These two great deities have actually turned into humans …"
Prince Chan, the "Dragon Soul of Mount Taishi", also led a group of people. When he saw the appearance of Blood God and Dharma God, his heart trembled. At this time, in Prince Yu's Mansion, there were many experts. Prince Chan, Yang Chan, was equivalent to a Six Tribulations expert!
There was also the Commander of the Cosmos Dragon Guards, Gong Yangyu!
This Sword Sage was also unfathomable! No one knew what secret technique he had cultivated, but his white hair had turned black, showing signs of rejuvenation. The "Black Yellow Armor" on his body had also changed color, showing signs of great power. Obviously, it had been re-refined.
The forces behind him were also incomparably powerful. No one knew how many Wu Sheng were hidden in the armor. During the Da Qian's conquest of the Western Region, they had captured many Wu Sheng. Now, they had also been subdued and incorporated into the Qiankun Dragon Guards.
In addition, there were also the mysterious "Shadow Guards" scattered around the Firearms Camp.
What was more impressive was that in the group behind Hong Xi stood a figure that was three or four people tall. Its entire body was wrapped in black cloth. It seemed to be a tree, but also seemed to be a primordial giant beast.
This was the "Demon God Patriarch" Ba!
These people were all experts in the open. It was unknown how many experts were hidden in the dark. If there were experts who had gone through six lightning tribulations at this time, and their souls could travel through the void, they would discover that there were many powerful auras hidden in the depths of the void!
With so many experts swarming over, it was no wonder that Prince Yu's disciples could not withstand them.
"Prince Yu is obviously in the Zhou Yi Academy. What should we do now? Should we lead troops to besiege the Zhou Yi Academy? "Just then, Demon Ape Ba spoke.
"Everything will be done according to the orthodox system. Prince Yu is plotting a rebellion! He has killed many of the imperial guards and is now lurking in the Zhou Yi Academy. The Zhou Yi Academy is a Sage Academy, but it is a place that hides filth. Now, let us request the Emperor to confiscate the academy! "
A hideous smile appeared on Hong Xi's face as he poured out the dirty water.
"That Hong Yi thinks of himself as a saint. Everything he does is based on etiquette! I think he will definitely defend himself this time, right? Let's see how he will defend himself then! Men, give me the evidence of your crimes, all of them! Tomorrow, the declaration will be spread all over the world. This saint, Hong Yi, will become a pile of stinking dog shit! "
…
At the same time, outside Yujing City, in the dark autumn rain, one tunnel after another opened up in front of the West Mountain. Thousands of Space Doors and Illusory Doors appeared in the West Mountain.
Teams of valiant soldiers emerged from the Space Doors. There were also cavalry and even war chariots!
Ten thousand, twenty thousand, thirty thousand … fifty thousand … one hundred thousand … two hundred thousand … three hundred thousand … six hundred thousand … an army was gathering continuously.
This completely demonstrated the situation of the ancient Rashomon transporting the army. No, it was even more spectacular than the ancient Rashomon transporting the army!
After the ancient Rashomon had been refined, its power had increased even more! Relying on the Supreme Ultimate Lightning Pool, the power of the All Sage Palace could transport ten million people. It was the same as Sacred Ancestor Mountain moving tens of millions of people from the Nine Abyss Divine Realm.
Gathering five Immortal Monuments could transfer ten billion people from the Central World to the Vast Thousand Domains. The current All Sage Palace was not much different from the five Immortal Monuments! One could see its transportation capabilities!
The army continued to gather within two hours. Then, Hong Yi, Prince Yu, Godly King Gouli, the Young Commander, the Drifting Star Lord, Wu Zun, Yan Yang, Bei Chen, the twelve Aragami, Yun Xiangxiang, the Dragon Lady, Chan Yinsha, Luo Yun, the Enduring Monk, Hakuziyue, Consort Yuan, Mu The Younger, Chi Zhuiyang, Jitian, Arachnida Gigantea, and many others also walked out.
"Let's move out and surround Yujing City!" Hong Yi said as he looked at Yujing City in the distance.
