Serving as a Jinyiwei, starting from plundering the swordsmanship talent

The sacrificial ceremony to Heaven was the most lively day of the Great Qian Dynasty.

The entire city would celebrate on this day, so early in the morning, many people gathered on the streets of the imperial city, and many vendors were hawking their wares.

"Liuyun!"

In the gilded carriage, Ye Liuyun sat calmly on horseback, showing no sign of tension that something big was about to happen.

But obviously.

Not everyone can have the mindset of Ye Liuyun.

Inside the carriage, Yan Shuzhu finally couldn't resist lifting the curtain and softly calling out to Ye Liuyun.

"rest assured!"

Without even looking, Ye Liuyun could guess what Yan Shuzhu was thinking.

His gaze remained calm as he looked ahead, speaking in a measured and unhurried tone.

"I told you, nothing will happen. You just need to wait patiently. Besides, although you were the emperor before, you didn't hold any real power. Now that you're in power, the pressure won't be any less than it is now!"

Ye Liuyun never wanted to be an emperor; it was too tiring.

Moreover, in what way is my current status inferior to that of the emperor?
These days, in the end, it's all about ability.

Without real power, even if one becomes emperor, one will only end up like Yan Shuzhu, a puppet of others.

Or, like some emperors of small dynasties, they could only bow and scrape when facing certain sects and forces, showing no dignity whatsoever.

If you are powerful enough, you can make everything go as you wish.

",,,"

Yan Shuzhu wasn't stupid; she naturally knew what Ye Liuyun meant by those words.

"Don't worry, I won't let you down."

I know Ye Liuyun is comforting herself in this way.

The anxiety I felt earlier has subsided somewhat.

"Isn't this going to ensure the people of Daqian won't be disappointed?"

What do you mean by "don't let me down"?
Ye Liuyun glanced at Yan Shuzhu inside the carriage. Their eyes met for a moment, and Yan Shuzhu immediately lowered the carriage curtain again.

Quite cute!
This action brought a smile to Ye Liuyun's lips, but he didn't say anything more.

But it was Yan Shuzhu.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun hadn't said anything for a while, she gently pulled up the carriage curtain and looked at Ye Liuyun outside.

Even Yan Shuzhu, looking at Ye Liuyun's demeanor, couldn't help but sigh at the dashing young man.

,,,

"The sacrifice to heaven begins!"

At the top of the mountain, Yan Fuhai, dressed in a dragon robe, stood at the very front.

At this time, it should have been Emperor Yan Shuzhu who offered sacrifices to the heavens, but even knowing this, no one dared to say anything.

Yan Fuhai held incense and candles in his hand, looking quite pleased with himself.

This feeling of being in control of everything is exactly what Yan Fuhai needs. That's why Yan Fuhai is even more eager to recover and regain firm control of all power in his own hands.

"call!"

He exhaled a breath of turbid air.

Yan Fuhai restrained his emotions and began the ritual of offering sacrifices to Heaven.

Seeing that Yan Shuzhu, who was standing to the side, did not seem to have any objections from beginning to end, Yan Fuhai was even more pleased with himself.

Sure enough, a puppet is just a puppet; it can never be truly respectable.

The sacrificial ceremony to Heaven proceeded very smoothly.

It ended very quickly.

"It will take at most another six months for him to fully recover!"

Inside the carriage on the way back.

Yan Fuhai sensed his current state and began to analyze it in secret.

The backlash from fate won't last forever. After such a long recovery period, Yan Fuhai has already seen a glimmer of hope for a full recovery. He's confident that he can fully recover in at most six months.

Wait until then.

Everything will still belong to me.

Thinking of this, Yan Fuhai, sitting steadily inside the carriage, revealed a confident smile.

only.

"and many more!"

Yunhu, who had been following outside the carriage, finally noticed something was wrong.

The civil and military officials who should have been following behind had all disappeared without a trace, and even the soldiers guarding Yan Fuhai had vanished.

Because he had always felt superior, Yunhu was in a state of euphoria and hadn't noticed anything unusual around him until now.

"This road isn't long, and it's not the road we came from. Stop right there!"

Not completely dumbfounded, Yunhu realized something was wrong and immediately shouted.

Everyone stopped walking, but no one spoke, and the surrounding atmosphere suddenly fell into an eerie silence.

"Wait! You guys!"

at this time.

If Yunhu still can't figure something out, then he's really dumbfounded.

"Do it!"

Someone shouted something, and the few people who were guarding the carriage suddenly drew their hidden swords and rushed towards the carriage where Yan Fuhai was.

"you,,"

The sudden turn of events caught Yunhu off guard.

Those who remain here now have all been carefully selected, and none of them are weak.

"Humph!"

next moment.

A cold snort came from inside the carriage where Yan Fuhai was.

An invisible shockwave sent all of them flying.

Then, Yan Fuhai lifted the carriage curtain and stepped out of the carriage.

"Master! It was all my negligence that caused me to neglect you!"

Realizing what was happening, Yunhu quickly dismounted and knelt before Yan Fuhai.

"waste!"

Normally, Yan Fuhai would have taught Yun Hu a lesson, but he didn't have that thought right now. He simply said something and then looked around.

"I really underestimated you. You actually dared to make a move!"

Yan Fuhai could have anticipated that someone might fall for him at this time, but he never expected it to be true.

"No, you're just too confident!"

There's no need to hide it anymore.

After saying this, Fu Zhengqing slowly walked out from the crowd.

“If you had stayed in the palace, I wouldn’t have had any opportunities. And it’s precisely because of your overconfidence that you’ve been so careless that you’ve only just noticed something amiss!”

Yan Fuhai is indeed confident.

He confidently believed that, given his circumstances, no one would dare to lay a hand on him, nor did he care that anyone would dare to plot against him.

Otherwise, they should have noticed something amiss when they changed routes.

"How dare you! Then let me see if you have the strength to threaten me!"

Even so, so what? I am still a terrestrial immortal, and I am still in complete control of the game.

"I'd like to see who dares to harm our master!"

Just then, a figure swiftly passed through the woods and arrived beside Yan Fuhai.

"Wei Hongfang!"

Yunhu was the first to get excited, because the person who came was Wei Hongfang, whom he had been looking for for a long time.

At this moment, Wei Hongfang didn't care about Yun Hu's gaze at all, but instead looked seriously at Yan Fuhai.

"Rest assured, Master, with this old servant here, I will never let these people get close to you!"

"Hahaha! Okay! Okay!"

After all, Wei Hongfang had been by Yan Fuhai's side since before he ascended the throne, so he was still very loyal to Yan Fuhai when he saw Wei Hongfang appear.

Yan Fuhai burst into laughter instead.

"It's good that you know you're wrong and can correct it. I've always reserved this position for you, the Ninth Prince!"

"master!"

Upon hearing this, it wasn't Wei Hongfang who was most excited, but rather Yun Hu.

Just as he was about to say something, Yan Fuhai glanced at him, and Yun Hu quickly lowered his head, not daring to say another word.

But his fist, hidden beneath his sleeve, was clenched tightly.

So, despite all that I did, am I ultimately no match for Wei Hongfang?
Guan Bao, who was watching from a distance, curled up a mocking smile after seeing this scene.

What's the point of being a dog for so long?
"Thank you, Master!"

Yan Fuhai's words stirred something in Wei Hongfang's heart, but he quickly calmed down.

Since he was able to lose his position as the Ninth Prince once, he could do it a second time. In the end, in Yan Fuhai's eyes, he was just an insignificant old dog.

They come when summoned and leave when dismissed!
"Hahaha!"

Unfortunately, the confident Yan Fuhai was completely unaware of Wei Hongfang's emotional change.

Instead, she smiled with even more confidence.

His gaze fell on Fu Zhengqing, as if to say, "What skills do you still have now?"

That's why I said you're too confident!

Meeting Yan Fuhai's gaze, Fu Zhengqing smiled as well.

"?"

The next moment, Yan Fuhai realized something.

A broken blade pierced Yan Fuhai's body, and the one who did it was Wei Hongfang.

"you!"

Looking at Wei Hongfang in front of him, Yan Fuhai felt somewhat dazed.

"I'd rather be a dog, but I don't want to be a stray dog!"

",,,"

Upon hearing Wei Hongfang's words, Yan Fuhai remained silent for a moment.

He then looked down at the dagger embedded in his body.

"A top-grade spiritual artifact, and a one-time use top-grade spiritual artifact at that! You guys are really willing to spend so much!"

He was a terrestrial immortal, and ordinary spiritual artifacts couldn't even break through the defenses of a terrestrial immortal.

A so-called disposable magical artifact means that it can only be used once and will be destroyed after that. Such artifacts are generally only used as a trump card.

Even a terrestrial deity could fall victim to this if they didn't react in time.

"Kill him! Kill him for me!" Yan Fuhai roared, pointing directly at Wei Hongfang.

"As ordered!"

Yunhu made the first move.

They weren't worried about Yan Fuhai's condition at all. After all, he was a terrestrial immortal, so even if he was stabbed, it wouldn't be fatal.

"Second brother, let me help you!"

This scene immediately stirred Guan Bao's mind, and he shouted before rushing towards Yun Hu.

Wei Hongfang was initially on high alert, but gradually he realized something was wrong. Guan Bao's killing move wasn't just aimed at him, but also at Yun Hu. It seemed that he intended to kill Yun Hu as well!

"What are you doing!"

Yunhu, who also realized this, turned much darker.

"Of course it's about killing the enemy, what's wrong?"

Guan Bao remained calm, showing no sign of feeling he had done anything wrong.

"court death!"

This scene amused Wei Hongfang.

Those who betray others will eventually be betrayed by others!

,,,

"die!"

Today I've truly lost face, and Yan Fuhai is no longer willing to wait.

They chose to attack Fu Zhengqing directly.

Fu Zhengqing, of course, would not sit idly by and wait for his doom. If he missed this opportunity now, he was afraid that there would be no next time.

"Do it quickly!"

While using his internal energy to defend himself, Fu Zhengqing shouted loudly.

From behind the crowd, Yue Xiu's figure slowly emerged.

"It's you!"

Yan Fuhai originally intended to kill Fu Zhengqing directly, but Yue Xiu's appearance still made Yan Fuhai lose his composure for a moment.

"If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have spared your life!"

"Killing my offspring and extinguishing my family line, is that considered sparing my life?"

Yan Fuhai's words made Yue Xiu's voice become much hoarse.

Yue Xiu had wanted to die for a long time; it was hatred that had kept him alive until now.

"Hmph! I gave you everything. No matter what I do, you should be grateful. Since you don't know how to be grateful, then you will die here today!"

talking.

Yan Fuhai used his martial arts skills to strike Yue Xiu's direction with a palm.

A palm strike from a terrestrial immortal is not something an ordinary martial artist can withstand.

only!
"Keng!"

The knife, hidden for so many years, was slowly drawn from its sheath at this moment.

A sharp blade aura was also released, and with just that, it shattered Yan Fuhai's palm strike.

"How can this be!"

Even if it wasn't a full-force palm strike, how could Yue Xiu, a 'Grandmaster,' possibly withstand it?

"I have concealed this weapon for decades, all for this year. Your Majesty, I beg you to return to heaven!"

"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

As Yue Xiu's sword was continuously drawn, the surrounding air pressure dropped lower and lower, and the air currents hummed.

"This is?"

Even though Ye Liuyun had anticipated this, he was still taken aback by the scene.

This power is somewhat unexpected.

"No, this isn't a simple Tibetan knife!"

Ye Liuyun could sense that Yue Xiu's spirit was being constantly frightened. Was he planning to use his life to deliver the final blow?
If we intervene at this moment, we might be able to save Yue Xiu.

However, seeing Yue Xiu's resolute expression, Ye Liuyun ultimately decided not to stop him.

What reason is there to stop it?

Perhaps Yue Xiu had long wanted to go to the underworld and reunite with his family.

"die!"

",,,"

The Great Way is silent.

With a single swing of the sword, the entire world seemed to fall silent.

The space seemed to be locked, and Yan Fuhai couldn't even make a move to escape; he could only see the blade energy slashing at him.

He was slashed and sent flying.

"Let's do it together!"

Fu Zhengqing's face was filled with barely concealed excitement. He hurriedly called his men to rush over together, wanting to completely suppress and kill Yan Fuhai.

Ye Liuyun did not join in the attack.

Instead, he came to Yue Xiu's side. At this time, Yue Xiu was already barely breathing; that one strike had completely consumed Yue Xiu's life.

Only by sheer willpower could he stand still.

"The future of Daqian rests on your shoulders!"

Although he didn't look up, Yue Xiu could sense that the person who came was Ye Liuyun.

After speaking slowly, Yue Xiu went downstairs.

"Do not worry!"

Watching the talent attributes slowly emerge from Yue Xiu's body, Ye Liuyun responded in a low voice.

Some people can earn respect even in death.

,,,

"How dare you! How dare you! Do you really think you can kill me like this? Who do you think I am? I am the true emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty!"

Although the strike was powerful, Yan Fuhai was not killed outright.

With a roar, Fu Zhengqing was sent flying back.

"Do it quickly!"

Seeing that Ye Liuyun still didn't make a move, Fu Zhengqing shouted anxiously.

"Once he recovers, we'll have absolutely no chance!"

",,,"

Ye Liuyun still did not answer.

At this moment, Yan Fuhai also looked towards Ye Liuyun.

His gaze was disdainful.

"What young grandmaster? Before me, he is nothing but an ant!"

"I'm coming to kill you!"

As he spoke, Yan Fuhai prepared to make a move against Ye Liuyun.

only.

"Boom!"

A sudden clap of thunder shook the ground, and the once clear sky was instantly covered with dark clouds.

"How is this going!"

Yan Fuhai suddenly stopped moving.

With such a long recovery period, Yan Fuhai can now act without restraint for a short time without worrying about any backlash from his luck.

This is why Yan Fuhai has always been so confident.

But why was there no problem just now, but when I attacked Ye Liuyun, the feeling of backlash from fate was so strong?

It was as if the moment he made a move against Ye Liuyun, the backlash of fate would immediately befall him.

"who are you!"

This Ye Liuyun is definitely no ordinary person!

"I am your destiny!"

At this point, there's no need for further words.

"Star Clock, activate!"

With a low groan, the Star Bell, radiating a pale purple starlight, flew directly out from Ye Liuyun's body.

It's time for everything to come to an end.

,,,

Yan Fuhai eventually died.

On Wei Hongfang's side, Yun Hu was also dead, and Guan Bao, though not dead, was nearly dead as well.

"No, no one can look down on me!"

Looking at Yunhu, whose face was still full of resentment even after death, Guan Bao's expression was ferocious. In fact, under normal circumstances, Yunhu would not have died, but Guan Bao had been adding something special to the tea he had been giving Yunhu.

A master can detect poison, but a tonic is a different story.

Tonics may seem beneficial, but if used in excess, they can have the opposite effect.

It can only be said that Guan Bao went to great lengths to get revenge on Yun Hu.

,,,

One month later!
Yan Shuzhu has firmly secured his position as Emperor of the Great Qian Dynasty.

The position of head of the civil officials still belongs to Fu Zhengqing. It was thought that Yan Fuhai's death would cause some waves, but in reality, nothing has changed. It seems that Yan Fuhai's death is very insignificant.

It's not that no one has questioned Yan Shuzhu, the emperor who has absolutely no cultivation.

only!
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"

On this day, endless storms swept across the entire sky of Daqian.

An invisible pressure descended upon everyone.

No one can describe what that feeling is like; it's like a heartfelt pilgrimage.

Within the Great Qian Dynasty.

After a month of seclusion, Ye Liuyun slowly opened his eyes.

"This is the true immortal on land!"

Feeling the power within himself, Ye Liuyun smiled with great confidence.

With so many talent attributes, Ye Liuyun successfully reached the level of a terrestrial immortal.

"However, this is just the beginning!"

From now on, my fate is in my own hands, not in the hands of heaven!

,,,,,,
The End! (End of Chapter)
