Seeing Zhao Shuo's solemn expression, Venerable Qinghe thought that Zhao Shuo might have discovered something special since he had interacted directly with the Twelve Kings of Hell.
Zhao Shuo was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.
Venerable Qinghe also looked in the same direction.
Over there, a figure appeared.
The newcomer was tall and handsome. He held a long halberd in his hand, which shone with a cold light. It was terrifying.
"It's Brother Lou."
Zhao Shuo said Slowly.
Venerable Qinghe also raised his white eyebrows slightly. "Your Majesty, it's been a long time."
The newcomer was Lou Ning, the leader of the Dayin Dynasty that dominated the southeast of Middle Earth.
Among the Six Dynasties of Middle Earth, he was the most legendary person. He was the only emperor among the rulers of the Six Dynasties who had risen from nothing in recent decades.
Lou Ning took advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains after the Jade Empire was destroyed and the Twelve Yama Kings disappeared to create an empire from nothing. Among the current six emperors of the Central Plains, his foundation was the weakest, but his hands were the bloodiest.
The God Slayer Halberd in his hand had drunk the blood of more than one Fourth Realm Martial Emperor.
Over the years, the Dayin Dynasty under his rule did not have a good relationship with its neighbor to the north, the Dayin Dynasty.
As neighbors, they often had conflicts and wars.
The Dayin Dynasty even had a good relationship with the Nine Peaks Academy.
On one hand, they were both rising forces in recent decades. On the other hand, the enemy of an enemy was a friend.
The Nine Peaks Academy had the Sacred Evolution Mansion outside and the Zhao Family and the Great Jing Dynasty inside. Other than their own strong forces, they also had outside help.
The Lou Family and the Dayin Dynasty were the strongest outside help of the Nine Peaks Academy. They cooperated and helped each other.
However, after the rise of Chang 'an, the Dayin Dynasty under Lou Ning's rule stopped their conflict with the Zhao Family and observed quietly.
When the news of the Twelve Kings of Hell's reappearance spread, the entire Middle Earth was united.
Lou Ning immediately sent his sister to the Zhao Family's capital, Fengming City, to make peace with the Zhao Family and fight against Chang 'an together.
"After my sister informed me, I arranged the affairs of the nation and immediately rushed over. However, Chang 'an suddenly attacked, so I was still a step too late."
Lou Ning's gaze shifted from Zhao Shuo to Qing He Zhenren. "Fortunately, Daoist Priest lent a helping hand. Brother Zhao is safe and sound."
Zhao Shuo sighed, "Brother Lou, I appreciate your kindness and I am also grateful to you for your help. However, I can't say that I'm 'safe and sound'. My uncle and my younger brother have both died."
Lou Ning said, "Brother Zhao, my condolences. You still have to pull yourself together."
"Your Majesty, what do you plan to do next?"
Daoist Master Qing He asked as he glanced at Zhao Shuo from the corner of his eye.
Zhao Shuo's expression was calm.
Previously, he had received news that there was a Mingde Academy in the Dayin Dynasty. It seemed to be secretly communicating with Chang 'an City.
To the Great Yin Empire, this was undoubtedly a major threat.
Lou Yu went to Feng Ming City as a diplomatic envoy. After everyone discussed and understood the seriousness of the matter, she immediately reported back to Emperor Yin Lou Ning.
When Lou Ning heard the news, he said that he would personally head to Fengming City of the Great Jing Empire after settling the matters in the Imperial Court.
However, it was a pity that Chang 'an City's attack was ferocious and determined. It exceeded everyone's expectations. Even Zhao Shuo himself received the news too late.
Although Lou Yu immediately tried to train her brother, Emperor Yin Lou Ning was still a step too late.
If Daoist Master Qing He had not arrived in time, the entire upper echelon of the Great Jing Empire, including Zhao Shuo himself, would have died.
Daoist Master Qing He saw Emperor Yin Zhao Shuo's expression and knew that he was trustworthy. Hence, he looked at Emperor Yin Lou Ning and asked, "Where do we go from here? What does Your Majesty plan to do next?"
"This depends on Brother Zhao. If Brother Zhao says that Chang 'an City has won the first battle and now is the time to relax, then the three of us should join forces and attack Chang' an City, then I will accompany you."
Lou Ning waved the long halberd in his hand. "If Brother Zhao says that you want to go Slowly, then we will disturb you for a while and follow you back to Tai Qing Palace or Nine Peaks Academy. The Shen Family must be waiting for us at the Mirror Lake Nine Peaks."
Nine Peaks Academy was located in the Great Jing Empire of the Zhao Family.
Chang 'an City had first taken down Fengming City, the capital of the Great Jing Empire. Next, they would definitely sweep through the entire territory of the Great Jing Empire.
They would either remove Nine Peaks Academy first or sweep through other places first. Good food is not afraid of being late. They would deal with Nine Peaks Academy last.
But no matter what choice Chang 'an made, Nine Peaks Academy could not avoid it. Eventually, a strong enemy would come knocking on their door.
If Dean Shen Tianxian did not make up his mind to move the entire academy away from its original location, then they would have to replace the Zhao Family and become the frontline against Chang 'an.
"Let's go to Nine Peaks Academy first and meet with Dean Shen."
Emperor Yin Zhao Shuo looked at the two people in front of him. "Please contact Zhenren Peng of your sect and ask him to visit Nine Peaks Academy. We can discuss this together."
Daoist Master Qing He frowned slightly. "Given the Twelve Kings of Hell's unforgiving temperament, their next target will probably be Nine Peaks Academy. No matter where we go now, we will be chased and attacked by them. It will be difficult for us to regroup. Why don't the two of you follow me back to Tai Qing Palace first?"
"This time, they might not set their sights on Nine Peaks Academy so quickly."
Zhao Shuo, the Magnificent Emperor, shook his head slightly and said, "Taoist Priest, you may not know this, but if the Twelve Yama, or Chang 'an City, want to shake the Grand Jing Dynasty or the Nine Peaks Academy, they need the' Sword Devil 'Su Po.
Before he finished speaking, something unexpected happened.
A silver light flashed. Emperor Yin Zhao Shuo, who was speaking, was almost split into two.
He looked at Emperor Yin Lou Ning in disbelief.
Lou Ning was holding a long halberd. He was the one who almost killed Zhao Shuo.
He, Zhao Shuo, and Daoist Master Qing He were all in the Thirteenth Realm. But when Daoist Master Qing He was curious about the content of Zhao Shuo's words, he seized the opportunity perfectly.
Lou Ning was not greedy. He did not target Daoist Master Qing He and Zhao Shuo at the same time.
Instead, he targeted Zhao Shuo, who was already injured earlier.
He was unprepared. He was not injured, but he was injured. The result was obvious.
Fortunately, Daoist Master Qing He reacted in time and manifested the Tai Chi Demon Art to block the attack for Zhao Shuo.
Taking advantage of that moment, Zhao Shuo hurriedly dodged. At the same time, he pulled out his saber to counterattack.
Unfortunately, he had just split open the vital part of Zhao Shuo's head when Lou Ning's halberd came down. It hit Zhao Shuo's neck and shoulder.
Then, it slashed diagonally!
Originally, Lou Ning's halberd had slashed from head to toe. He wanted to split Zhao Shuo's head in half.
Now, he slashed diagonally from Zhao Shuo's right shoulder, near his neck, all the way to his left hip. Emperor Yin Zhao Shuo's body was still about to be split into two.
Daoist Master Qing He hurriedly attacked.
In order to succeed in one move, Lou Ning inevitably used a slightly older move.
Facing the enemy's counterattack, he prioritized dodging Daoist Master Qing He's attack.
As for Zhao Shuo's dying counterattack, he took the hit head-on.
The flaming blade successfully broke through Lou Ning's protective Qi, leaving a wound.
But as Lou Ning dodged, the wound was not deep.
The flaming blade Qi continued to entangle Lou Ning's wound. Lou Ning immediately used his own Qi and blood to suppress it and disperse it.
Lou Ning slashed with his halberd again, taking on Daoist Master Qing He's consecutive attacks.
"Master Lou, how is this unwise?" The old Daoist's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.
A Martial Emperor's Qi and blood were vigorous. Although Zhao Shuo was heavily injured, he would not die in a short time.
But at this moment, it was difficult for him to even stand up, let alone fight.
Lou Ning's God-Slaying Halberd was not like his Zhao Family's Yi Blade.
However, the sharpness and lethality of that instant were even stronger.
At the same time that the halberd pierced through Zhao Shuo's body, it caused irreparable damage to the flesh and blood on the other side of the cut.
"If you kill me and destroy Dajing, will you be able to sit on my original throne?"
Zhao Shuo stared at Lou Ning and asked with difficulty, "Or are you like Mingde Academy, surrendering to Chang 'an?"
Lou Ning glanced at him and did not answer. He turned to look at Daoist Master Qing He.
"If you don't leave now, others will come and join forces with me. I'm afraid you will end up like Zhao Shuo, unable to leave even if you want to."
Daoist Master Qing He was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.
He could vaguely feel that there was a bright galaxy in the distance that was approaching.
Other than Chu Yaoguang, there was no one else.
Daoist Master Qing He could not be bothered with Lou Ning anymore. He grabbed Zhao Shuo and escaped with him.
But Lou Ning immediately waved his halberd, ignoring Zhao Shuo.
Daoist Master Qing He's purple cloud that wrapped around Zhao Shuo was broken by Lou Ning's move. Zhao Shuo immediately fell to the ground.
With Lou Ning blocking the way and Chu Yaoguang chasing after him, Daoist Master Qing He had no choice but to ignore Zhao Shuo and escape on the purple cloud.
Lou Ning captured Zhao Shuo and stopped chasing after Daoist Master Qing He.
In the blink of an eye, the galaxy fell to the ground and Chu Yaoguang's figure appeared.
Chu Yaoguang looked at Lou Ning for a while and suddenly said, "Have we met before?"
Lou Ning smiled and clasped his hands, "I have indeed met the Eighth Young Lady once in the past."
Chu Yaoguang thought for a while and nodded slightly. He did not say anything else and just looked at the half-dead Zhao Shuo. Then he said, "You can send him to Chang 'an."
Lou Ning let out a long breath. "Thank you, Eighth Lady."
He did not care about the other captives of the Zhao family in Fengming City. He only brought Zhao Shuo to Chang 'an.
When they arrived at Chang 'an, they met Blood Shadow. Lou Ning heard that His Majesty was in seclusion and waited patiently.
However, Emperor Yin, who had ruled the southeast of Middle Earth for 20 to 30 years, actually felt a little nervous at this moment.
He had not felt this way for many years.
After waiting for half a day, Mr. Dark Cloud suddenly announced, "His Majesty summons you."
Lou Ning calmed himself down and followed Mr. Dark Cloud to Daming Palace.
Slowly, Emperor Yin knelt down as he looked at the figure shrouded in light.
"It's been 34 years. Long live Your Majesty!"
