Shen Yuanlie heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he said to Chen Fu in a voice that only the three of them could hear, "From today onwards, you are the new Emperor of Da Shen. Remember, if you are not 100% confident, do not seek revenge. Remember, remember."
After pausing for a moment, Shen Yuanlie glanced at Yang Xuan and said to Chen Fu, "Listen to your Master. Whatever he says is the truth. Do not try to contact the people from the Lingxiao Treasure Hall to seek revenge. You must remember, if you want to seek revenge, you must be 100% confident that you can kill them in one strike. Otherwise, you must be deaf and mute. Do you hear me?"
"I know! But … "Chen Fu wanted to say something.
"There are no buts. Remember, be deaf and mute!" Shen Yuanlie shouted with a ferocious expression.
Chen Fu was frightened and nodded blankly.
Shen Yuanlie felt relieved. He turned and stared at Yang Xuan with a strange look in his eyes.
It had to be said that Yang Xuan's move was too ingenious.
If the Shen Clan was wiped out, Da Shen would definitely appoint a new Emperor under the intervention of the Lingxiao Treasure Hall and change the world.
Yi Changjue and Yang Xuan had made a promise with a sword. They probably had this thought in mind.
However, Yang Xuan left one alive.
This way, the officials who were originally loyal to the Shen Clan would not have much of a reaction. They would smoothly accept the new Emperor and prevent Da Shen from falling into chaos.
As for the Lingxiao Treasure Hall, they would not have an excuse to interfere. After all, the forces under the Lingxiao Treasure Hall were not the only ones in Da Shen. If they broke the rules and directly interfered with the fight for the throne, it would definitely cause a reaction from the other forces.
However, this way, Yang Xuan would become the target of public criticism. The Lingxiao Treasure Hall would take their anger out on him.
However, Yang Xuan probably did not care about this.
"You are playing with fire!" After a while, he said softly.
Yang Xuan smiled and said indifferently, "You don't understand!"
Shen Yuanlie didn't care about the meaning of Yang Xuan's name. After taking a deep breath, he glanced at Shen Fu one last time before looking at Yang Xuan. His face was filled with determination. "Do it!"
Yang Xuan nodded and said softly, "Alright!"
The next moment, a faint golden light entered Shen Yuanlie's heart.
Shen Yuanlie's body trembled. Then, he slowly fell to the ground. However, his eyes were still open. He stared at Yang Xuan. The tears at the corners of his eyes had yet to dry.
Shen Yuanlie was dead.
Shen Yuanlie, the Emperor of the Great Shen Empire, the Emperor of a generation, who had dominated the East for many years, ended his life just like that, turning into a corpse.
The earth began to tremble, and a huge crack appeared on the ground, swallowing all the corpses of the Shen clan, including Shen Yuanlie's corpse.
They were sent underground by Yang Xuan and laid to rest ever since.
On this day, the entire Great Shen fell into darkness. The sun that had illuminated the East for thousands of years had fallen.
Later generations gave this day a name: The Eastern Falling Sun.
In the next period of time, the entire East was shaken.
The news from the Great Shen Empire made everyone dumbfounded. They fell into a daze.
Yang Xuan!
He destroyed a country alone. He could summon clouds and rain with a flip of his hand.
He destroyed the Shen clan, killed Shen Yuanlie, and installed a new Emperor.
If this news made everyone fall into a state of shock, then the following news simply made some people go crazy.
Jiang Bei Gui and Gao Wang!
Two of Lingxiao's Three Swords appeared in Great Shen. They joined forces to fight Yang Xuan, but ended in failure.
Everyone who heard this news was speechless. Who were Jiang Bei Gui and Gao Wang? They were already famous a hundred years ago. Their names made their enemies tremble in fear. They represented an era.
Not to mention whether their joining forces to fight Yang Xuan was in line with the Jianghu's principles, the fact that they failed in the end was enough to make people shocked and even terrified.
However, the following news was what really triggered a magnitude 12 earthquake.
Yi Changjue and Yang Xuan had agreed to a one-sword duel.
The outcome was unknown!
But it was an indisputable fact that Yi Changjue would never interfere in Great Shen's affairs again.
Thus, some people guessed that Yi Changjue had lost, but even more people disagreed.
There was only one reason.
Yi Changjue with the Stellar Sword!
Just based on these words, no one would believe that he had been defeated.
But even so, Yang Xuan could escape unscathed from Yi Changjue's hands. Even if he wasn't as good as Yi Changjue, he wasn't far off.
In a flash, Yang Xuan's name shook the entire Eastern Lands.
In Lingxiao's palace, Li Muyun was lost in thought. He'd been in the same position for a long time.
Currently, his heart was pounding as he lost all ability to think.
Even his body was trembling slightly. It was unknown whether it was because of fear or something else.
Yuan Yueshu left Great Shen and returned to the northwest as fast as she could to the Yuan Estate.
After hearing the news, Chu Xifeng stood there in a daze for a full 15 minutes before he accepted reality.
Then he went into closed door cultivation.
Those who saw him said that he kept muttering Yang Xuan's name before he went into seclusion.
Gu Shentu let out a long sigh when he heard the news. He cast aside the thought of challenging Yang Xuan to a fight.
He knew that even though he'd ascended to the divine dao, he was nothing but an ant before Yang Xuan.
The news was still being spread. With Da Shen as the center, it was as if a twelfth level earthquake had been set off, spreading to the world.
While the tremors continued, Zhu Xinghe had already secretly arrived at Great Shen and knelt before Yang Xuan.
"Master, everything is ready. Our people have already entered Da Shen." Zhu Xinghe knelt on the ground and said respectfully.
His expression was extremely respectful, but his heart was rumbling.
Zhu Xinghe already knew that Yang Xuan was Bai Qi, but that didn't matter to him.
He only cared about Yang Xuan's battle accomplishments.
Godlike achievements.
With a master like this, what else could he say?
Yang Xuan nodded before turning to look at Zhu Xinghe.
"Are you ready?" he asked.
Zhu Xinghe didn't dare to rise, but remained kneeling on the ground. "I'm ready. From his bearing to his speech, body shape, and appearance, everything's the same."
"And his loyalty?" Yang Xuan asked.
"Don't worry, master. This man is a loyalist I've raised. There's no problem with his loyalty."
Yang Xuan nodded again. "You may rise! Let him in for a look. "
After Zhu Xinghe stood up and left, Yang Xuan muttered to himself and a cloud of mist appeared on his face, concealing his original appearance.
Not long after, Zhu Xinghe came in with a hale and hearty old man following behind him. He had an extraordinary aura about him.
Zhu Xinghe raised his head, but couldn't see Yang Xuan's face clearly. He gave a start before understanding.
"Master, that's him!" He pointed at the old man behind him.
The old man cupped his fists at Yang Xuan and addressed him as' Master '.
Yang Xuan observed him. After a while, he waved his hand and took off an exquisite human skin mask from the man's face.
Under the mask was a middle-aged man with an ordinary face like an old farmer.
Yang Xuan played with the mask in his hand and asked, "Are you confident?"
The man replied respectfully, "Master, I'm eighty percent confident."
Yang Xuan nodded. "Eighty percent is not bad. Since that's the case, I'll lend you a hand."
After saying that, he raised his finger and pointed at the man's forehead.
