Bathing the Imperial Palace in Blood
Chu Xingyun stood proudly in the air in the Imperial Palace of the Qian Martial Emperor in the Honorable Martial City. Everyone below him raised their heads and stared at him with fiery eyes.
Chu Xingyun's aura was so powerful. With a wave of his hand, he had ordered 180,000 Subduing Star Guards to lock down the Imperial Palace of the Qian Martial Emperor. This time, even if Qian Yin had wings on his back, he wouldn't be able to escape.
However, compared to the panic of the Imperial Palace guards, the Imperial Palace of the Qian Martial Emperor didn't make any noise. It was very quiet. It was so quiet that it was unusual.
"Is Qian Yin up to something again?" Qian Shao murmured. He knew Qian Yin's personality better than anyone else. Qian Yin was sinister, cunning, and full of tricks. Now that the Imperial Palace of the Qian Martial Emperor was locked down by the Subduing Star Guards, it shouldn't be so quiet.
Just as he was thinking, a rumbling sound rang out. The red door that was tightly shut opened. Mottled spiritual light bloomed and dyed the Imperial Palace luxurious. The darkness that covered the sky was also pierced through, as if it was trying to steal the moonlight.
Then, under everyone's gaze, a group of people walked out from the Imperial Palace. Qian Yin was in the group.
"Why are there so many people?" The crowd was astonished when they saw this. They discovered that the number of people who followed Qian Yin out was extremely large. It was a black mass and there were probably no less than ten thousand people.
Moreover, the crowd recognized these people. They were all high-ranking officials of various cities. Each of them had great power and influence and could affect the survival and development of the Qian Martial Emperor.
"No wonder there's no movement. Qian Yin was prepared." Chu Xingyun smiled faintly. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and a demonic light flickered in his eyes.
"It only took half a day to kill your way from Ancient Yang City to Honorable Martial City. Pavilion Master Luo Yun's fierce methods are truly admirable!" Said Qian Yin. As he spoke, he was actually smiling. There was a trace of coldness in his smile. He didn't feel the slightest bit of fear because of Chu Xingyun's arrival.
"How dare you, Qian Yin. Death is at hand and you still dare to be so arrogant. Could it be that you're in a hurry to die?!" Ning Lefan shouted angrily. He glanced at Qian Yin and couldn't understand why this person was so confident.
"I'm the Emperor of the Qian Martial Emperor. I have unparalleled power. Why would I be in a hurry to die?" Qian Yin still had a mocking smile on his face. He slowly scanned the surroundings and his gaze finally landed on Chu Xingyun. "I'm just a little curious. Why have you all come to Honored Martial City?"
"Qian Yin, you used despicable means to seize the authority of the Qian Martial Emperor. You also abused torture and massacred the common people. We're here to take back the Qian Martial Emperor and interrogate you for your heinous crimes!" Qian Yuxin's voice was cold.
She had seen everything that had happened in the Qian Martial Emperor. Qian Yin's actions were ruthless. In just a few months, the Qian Martial Emperor was filled with grievances. It was no longer as powerful as it used to be.
If Qian Yin continued to control the Qianwu Dynasty, the foundation of the Qianwu Dynasty over hundreds of years would probably be destroyed in an instant. The vast territory would become a wasteland, and countless people would lose their homes and become refugees with no one to rely on.
"Take back the Qian Martial Emperor and interrogate me for my crimes? No problem. I'm willing to follow your arrangements." Hearing Qian Yuxin's words, Qian Yin suddenly answered. What he said stunned everyone. Qian Yin was willing to hand over the ruling power of the Qian Wu Dynasty and accept the punishment of the law?
"But..
. "Qian Yin dragged out his words. He stared at Chu Xingyun and laughed without restraint." Apart from me, the 24,812 officials behind me also need to accept punishment. Whether it's banishment to the border or being killed on the spot, I'm willing to accept it. However, I'm curious about one thing. If the Qian Martial Emperor doesn't have us, what will it be like? "
As he spoke, the huge crowd behind Qian Yin sneered in unison. They saw Chu Xingyun's group and the Eighteen Star Garrison Guards in their eyes. They couldn't help but feel no fear. Instead, they felt a sense of superiority as if they were looking down on a group of boorish men.
"The Qian Martial Emperor's territory is over a thousand miles. There are fifty-eight cities, three thousand towns, and countless farmers. It's not easy to run everything in an orderly manner. If you're not careful, it will lead to endless disputes and even cause the entire empire to fall into chaos."
Qian Yin stepped forward and spoke slowly, "Pavilion Master Luo Yun, you're strong, and the forces you have are strong as well. However, in the end, you're just a group of martial artists. You don't have the ability to run the Qian Martial Emperor. I really don't understand. Are you here to take back the Qian Martial Emperor or to destroy the Qian Martial Emperor?"
"Qian Yin …" Qian Yin's words infuriated Qian Shao. Just as he opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Qian Yin. "Qian Shao, you were once a monarch. Is what I said wrong?"
Hearing this, Qian Shao was speechless.
Running an empire was easier said than done. It required a lot of talent and resources. Just relying on martial strength was too weak. It would only speed up the destruction of the empire and turn it into a barren land.
The crowd behind Qian Yin came from various cities. They were important people in running the Qian Martial Emperor. If these people were to be punished according to law, the Qian Martial Emperor's empire would fall into chaos.
It was because of this that Qian Yin dared to be so arrogant. He dared to humiliate Chu Xingyun again and again, saying that he was an ignorant peasant who didn't have the right to run the Qian Martial Emperor's empire.
Seeing Qian Shao, Ning Lefan, and the others fall into silence, the complacent expression on Qian Yin's face grew even more. He thought that his words had once again intimidated them. However, right at this moment, he glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed that a faint smile had appeared on Chu Xingyun's handsome face.
This smile was cold and full of demonic intent. It made Qian Yin panic and nervous for no reason.
"You are right. Just relying on martial strength to run an empire is not enough. Therefore, when I returned from the Ancient Star Sect, not only did I personally lead 180,000 Star Subduing Guards, I also brought 180,000 talents to run the empire," Chu Xingyun said calmly, but in Qian Yin's ears, it was like a clap of thunder.
These young students were originally full of vigor. Every one of them was filled with a strong scholarly aura and deep ambition. They were like stars shining in the night sky. When they gathered together, it was like they had turned into a sun. It made people feel like they didn't dare to look directly at them.
"The clothes they are wearing seem to be from the Saint Star Academy. Could it be that they are all students from the Saint Star Academy?"
Someone behind Qian Yin couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. As soon as he finished speaking, the more than 20,000 people who were proud and arrogant just a moment ago were all shocked and shocked.
The Saint Star Academy was the first and only academy in the Ancient Star Sect.
Anyone who could enter the Saint Star Academy was a talented and intelligent person. After they finished their studies, they would be able to take charge of an area and become an influential figure who could rule a region.
They didn't expect that after Chu Xingyun returned from the Ancient Star Sect, not only did he rule the 18 Star Subduing Guards, but he also led 180,000 young students.
Moreover, every student seemed to be crazily supporting Chu Xingyun. There wasn't a trace of evil in their eyes.
"One hundred and eighty thousand young students, eleven thousand in a dynasty. It's enough to replace us and maintain the normal operations of the eighteen dynasties. They might even be able to govern it better than us. If that's the case, wouldn't we become superfluous people?" At this moment, someone said in horror.
In an instant, the more than 20,000 high-ranking officials stopped their discussion. Their faces instantly turned pale. They looked at Qian Yin in unison, only to find that Qian Yin's face was also pale. His eyes were empty and his body couldn't help but tremble.
"I thought that I would need to spend a lot of time to catch all of you in one fell swoop. I never thought that you would save me this time." Chu Xingyun's gaze swept across the crowd in front of him. He looked down at them as if he was looking at a group of ants.
At this moment, he slowly raised his palm. Uniform voices sounded from all over the Imperial City. A bloody murderous aura rose in the night sky. The weapons in the hands of the 180,000 Star Subduing Guards had already been unsheathed and pointed towards the vast night sky.
"Star Subduing Guards, listen to my command!"
Chu Xingyun spoke again. His voice was as cold as the bone-chilling wind in the endless snow region, causing the void to freeze. "Launch an assault immediately. Kill your way into the Qian Martial Emperor's palace. Leave no one alive!"
