Is there any hope for me, who proposed to the world-destroying empress at the very beginning?

Su Liang flicked the tip of his spear and said coldly, "Come on!"

Upon seeing the Sect Master of the Protectorate Sect meet Su Liang, the Crown Prince gritted his teeth and said:

"Hold on! Once the sect leader kills Su Liang, he will surely come to our aid!"

On a small hill, Jun Hongyan stood there, with Liuli beside her.

At this moment, they all looked ahead at the chaotic scene.

The Crown Prince's side is almost at its breaking point, but Su Liang's situation is somewhat worrying.

Liuli couldn't help but speak up:

"After all, the opponent is a peak expert of the Profound Death Realm. Perhaps this time, he will have a hard time escaping unscathed. Do you need my help?"

Jun Hongyan simply shook her head, her eyes filled with deep trust in that man.

"If he says he can, then he can."

Liuli didn't know why Jun Hongyan suddenly trusted Su Liang so much, but she just stood aside and didn't say anything.

Returning our attention to the field, Su Liang's spear intent surged forth.

In the darkness, the golden light surrounding his body was extremely conspicuous.

Meanwhile, several flying swords hovered within the body of the Sect Master of the Protectorate Sect, continuously launching attacks towards Su Liang.

Although Su Liang was only at the peak of the eighth level of the Life Palace, he managed to withstand all of his opponent's attacks by relying on the Maha Spear Intent and the acquired Divine Emperor Dragon Body.

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect extended his palms repeatedly, and the sword energy around him soared into the sky, resembling a cold, clear spring under the moonlight.

The sword flashed as it came, and he shouted, "Let's see if you can withstand this strike!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Liang felt a chill wash over him. He lightly tapped his feet, and with a swift motion, the Purple Star Spear surged forward, unleashing a burst of spiritual energy. A purple light shot out from the tip of the spear like a rolling wave.

The purple light moved forward, blocking the sword light unleashed by the sect leader of the Protectorate Sect, before slowly dissipating.

The latter frowned deeply. The crown prince was still in danger, and his top priority was to rescue him. Little did he know that he, the dignified sect leader of the Protectorate Sect, would be unable to defeat this martial artist of the Life Palace in just two moves.

He understood somewhat why his men had been defeated by Su Liang.

At that moment, out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the Crown Prince's side could no longer hold out, and only two wounded guards remained to protect him, while countless Imperial Guards were rushing towards him from the side.

He immediately shouted, "How dare you!"

After shouting, he quickly headed in that direction.

But Su Liang was there, how could he let him succeed? He followed and blocked his way again.

"Didn't you just say you were going to kill me? I hope you'll keep your word," Su Liang said sarcastically.

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect was so enraged that his sword strikes became erratic, as he relentlessly slashed at Su Liang as if he wanted to tear him to pieces.

However, in normal times, he could easily defeat his enemies by using the lightness and silence of his flying sword, but today he was completely helpless against Su Liang.

The latter has those strange dragon scales, and unless you go all out, it's very difficult to hurt its core.

And that long spear, its intent formless and intangible, protected Su Liang extremely well; he simply couldn't defeat the man before him!

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect couldn't help but feel a little sad. He thought he should have been a person who transcended the world, and he originally thought that getting involved in this power struggle would be a piece of cake, but he kept hitting walls.

Now, he was almost corrupted by a martial artist from the Life Palace.

Just as his mind was racing, Su Liang suddenly thrust his spear at him.

His eyes widened as two flying swords rushed back to save their master, blocking Su Liang's gun.

The latter drew his gun and returned, like a cat playing with a mouse.

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect was about to kill when he heard Jun Hongyan's cold voice drift over.

"The Crown Prince is dead, do you still wish to resist?"

Upon hearing this, the sect leader of the Protectorate Sect focused his gaze and saw that the chaos there had indeed ended, and the Crown Prince had died under a hail of blades.

He took a deep breath, knowing he had failed.

The crown prince was his bargaining chip, but now that he has no more chips, he has no way to continue fighting at this power table.

In an instant, the two flying swords returned to their sheaths.

Su Liang's figure also turned around and landed back on Jun Hongyan and Shen Ce.

The latter glanced at him with concern, seemingly checking if he had been injured.

Su Liang chuckled at this.

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect also arrived here, stopping a few feet away from Jun Hongyan, and said:

"I'm leaving, and no one here should be able to stop me."

Su Liang scoffed, "That's not necessarily true."

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect's face immediately turned liver-colored.

Jun Hongyan didn't let Su Liang continue his nonsense, and calmly said:

"You can go back and continue to be your sect leader. The Protectorate Sect will still be the Protectorate Sect of Great Qin."

However, you must not interfere in any power struggles within the Qin Dynasty, and you must submit to my authority. If you agree, you may return.

"Otherwise, the Protectorate Sect would have no reason to exist!"

Jun Hongyan appeared to be negotiating with him, but her tone actually carried an air of absolute authority that left no room for refusal.

The sect leader of the Protectorate Sect never expected that she would actually...

This firm stance caused him to frown and ponder for a moment.

The crown prince is dead, and his desperate struggle, aside from venting his anger, will not harm Jun Hongyan.

At that time, the Protectorate Sect will surely perish.

What was the meaning of his lifelong struggle?

In a split second, he understood, and cupped his hands in greeting:

"The Protectorate Sect will no longer interfere in any affairs of the imperial city. Please allow me to leave, Your Majesty."

This time, he changed the way he was addressed.

Jun Hongyan waved her hand slightly, then turned and left.

Su Liang glanced at it and then left.

The soldiers stayed there to clean up the mess, while Su Liang, after all these days, returned to the princess's residence.

I'm afraid this place won't be the princess's residence for long.

He went into the bath alone and soaked for a long time.

I got up, changed into clean clothes, and finally smelled better.

Jun Hongyan was naturally in the palace, and Su Lian and the others should have already gone to sleep.

Su Liang walked towards his room, and only when he got close did he realize that the light was on.

He pushed the door open and found a person on his bed who was tied up and making "woofing" sounds.

Judging from her figure and physique alone, she is not the same fierce little girl from before.

only.

That's what makes it even more strange.

Su Liang was somewhat puzzled. He turned to look at Jun Hongyan, who was sitting elegantly to the side, and asked in confusion:

What does this mean?

(I saw someone suggest saving up a dozen or so chapters and posting them all at once. What's the difference between that and me grinding every day? The word count won't magically increase unless I update once a day and the rest are considered bonus chapters.)

After thinking it over all night for the next two weeks, I decided to go all out and earn 10,000 yuan a day for a month, until I felt like throwing up. The requirements are simple: don't support books, vote more.

If you can do that, just give me all the tickets next month.

Chapter 181 The Goddess of War's Reward... In front of the Empress

Why is this empress not consolidating her power in the palace, but instead having a beautiful woman tied up in her room in the middle of the night waiting for him?

With the help of lights.

Su Liang could still vaguely make out that the person who was bound hand and foot was none other than the once noble and proud Crown Princess!

Although she looked disheveled and even her palace dress was tattered, Su Liang recognized her at a glance.

His expression of doubt deepened.

"What do you mean by this, my lady?" Su Liang asked.

Jun Hongyan explained matter-of-factly:

"I promised you before that I would bring this woman here to be your slave."

"Don't worry about me, do whatever you want."

"I've also prepared whips and candles for you. Now it's up to you what you want to do."

"Uh...."

Upon hearing this, Su Liang felt utterly overwhelmed.

How insecure our own empress is, with one test after another.

You even kidnapped me to be your female slave? I'm afraid you'll take the initiative before I even get a chance to do it. Do you really think I'm that stupid?

Does he owe me a kiss again?

She was hesitating whether to launch a surprise kiss like she had done in the palace.

Then, the system, which had been dormant for a long time, surfaced.

"Kid, they've practically handed you a woman. If you don't take it, you're not a real man!"

Su Liang's forehead immediately creased with annoyance; he was too lazy to even acknowledge this idiotic system.

Are you the villain system or the pervert system?

Does he expect me to sleep with every woman I see?
