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

This second cultivation family was also almost completely wiped out.

It seems that the Empress and the God of War have been planning this for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity to eliminate these rebels.

The burning of the city was undoubtedly the best opportunity.

Now, with the momentum building, many rebels are feeling insecure.

Some sects and cultivation families that were considering defecting had to put aside their intentions and reconsider their actions at this time.

“Brother Su Liang, the next cultivation family is the Xia family of Jianlin. We need your help.”

Inside the spacious and luxurious beast-drawn carriage, Donghuang Yiren spoke casually.

The two powerful figures from the cultivation families mentioned earlier happened to have gathered in Burning City.

In the battle of burning the city, Su Liang slaughtered many rebels, and naturally, he also killed the two powerful figures from cultivation families.

However, the situation with the Xia family in Jianlin was different. The Xia family had been confirmed to have rebelled and had provided the Qianheng Holy Dynasty with a large amount of intelligence and assistance.

However, during this period, the Xia family of Jianlin has been living a secluded life in Jianlin Mountain.

I don't know if it's self-deception or if there's some other purpose behind it.

"I never imagined that the Xia family of Jianlin would also become one of the rebels."

Su Liang casually remarked that Jianlin Mountain was originally called Qinlin Mountain because the Xia family of Jianlin Mountain had made outstanding contributions to the Great Qin Dynasty, and that he was from a family of sword masters.

Therefore, the late emperor renamed Qinlin Mountain to Jianlin Mountain, also known as Xialin Mountain, in order to commend the achievements of the Xia family.

Unexpectedly, times have changed, and the once meritorious family of the Great Qin has now become the vanguard of the Qianheng Holy Dynasty in suppressing the Great Qin.

"Lord Su Liang, the God of War, please return."

When Su Liang and Donghuang Yiren appeared at the barrier outside Jianlin Mountain, a middle-aged man with a mustache spoke in a very calm tone.

"Oh?"

Su Liang narrowed his eyes slightly and replied casually.

Donghuang Yiren remained silent. The Xia family of Jianlin still maintained this attitude at this point, clearly indicating their intention to fight against the Great Qin to the end.

"A good bird chooses a good tree to perch on, and a good minister chooses a good lord to serve."

"My Xia family of Jianlin Mountain is merely following the will of Heaven and conforming to the power of man."

"Considering our past relationship, I will let you two leave. But don't come back, or don't blame the Xia family for being impolite."

Xia Zhuliu spoke calmly at this moment, and he did not threaten Su Liang and Donghuang Yiren.

He might not have the right to say this elsewhere.

However, this is Jianlin Mountain, a place that the Xia family has managed for most of their lives.

Here, no matter who comes, the Xia family has the final say.

"Patriarch Xia, although your Xia family has done many wrong things and even provided confidential information about the Great Qin Dynasty."

"However, if you stop now, you still have a chance to repent."

"If you continue down this path to the bitter end, the destruction of the Xia family will be solely your doing."

At this moment, Donghuang Yiren also spoke.

Upon hearing Donghuang Yiren's words, Xia Zhuliu revealed a cold smile.

The confrontation between the Great Qin Dynasty and the Qianheng Holy Dynasty was tantamount to throwing an egg against a rock, with absolutely no chance of victory.

They can hold out for at most three more months, and then the Empress, the God of War, Su Liang, and the others will all be reduced to ashes.

The fact that the cultivators of the Xia family in Jianlin haven't come out to suppress the cultivators of Da Qin is already an act of utmost benevolence.

As a result, Donghuang Yiren and Su Liang were ungrateful and actually tried to attack them at this time!

"Ugh……"

Seeing Xia Zhuliu's constant sneer, Donghuang Yiren also lost her patience.

With a wave of her hand, Donghuang Yiren summoned numerous powerful figures from the Military God's Mansion and assassins from Baiyujing.

However, Xia Zhuliu was not afraid at all. With a wave of his hand, many powerful members of the Xia family appeared from all directions.

The Xia family is one of the oldest and most powerful cultivation families in the Great Qin Dynasty. They had previously sworn to follow the First Emperor of Great Qin and were greatly favored.

The foundation that the Xia family is now displaying is also extraordinary.

Compared to the Xia family, the previous cultivation families were simply insignificant.

"Lord War God, are you sure you want to go to war with our Xia family?"

"You should know that the Qianheng Holy Dynasty and the Yellow Spring Ghost Sect are your mortal enemies now."

"Although the Xia family is powerful, they have always kept a low profile."

"Although our paths differ, I will not stand in your way, so why should the God of War stand in my way?"

Although Xia Zhuliu had long ago decided to go down a dark path, at this moment, he still did not intend to confront the Military God's Mansion, the Baiyujing assassins, and Su Liang and others head-on.

The outcome of his actions being shattered like jade but preserved like tile was not what he wanted.

If we can keep Donghuang Yiren and Su Liang in check this time, the Great Qin Dynasty will be wiped out in three months, and the Xia family will naturally be able to retain all its strength.

"It's not war, it's just suppressing a rebellion."

Donghuang Yiren shook her head. The Xia family was powerful, but they were not qualified to go to war with the Great Qin.

"Haha, Lord War God, do you really think that with these elites from the War God's Mansion and the assassins from Bai Yujing, you can break through the great formation, storm into Sword Forest Mountain, and annihilate my Xia family clan?"

After Xia Zhuliu finished speaking, many cultivators in the barrier formation burst into laughter, their gazes towards Su Liang and the God of War filled with mockery.

"Is it really not allowed?"

As soon as the God of War uttered these words, before Xia Zhuliu could say anything, many cultivators within the barrier immediately switched sides and attacked and killed the cultivators controlling the array flags beside them.

The protective array of Jianlin Mountain was also activated to Xia Zhuliu's astonishment.

Chapter 666 I think I can fight

Xia Zhuliu had always felt that he was in a favorable position in his confrontations with the Qin Dynasty, the Empress, and the God of War.

The Empress and the God of War were in the open, while he remained hidden in the shadows.

So no matter what he does, he always gains the upper hand and reaps all the benefits.

Xia Zhuliu was now completely panicked. The Empress and the God of War's spies had somehow infiltrated the core of the Xia family in the Sword Forest!

The Xia family cultivators who were able to appear here this time were all carefully selected and there were absolutely no problems with them.

But now, at least more than a hundred of our agents have been exposed!

Seeing this scene, Su Liang was also dumbfounded and speechless.

Have my wife and my sister, the Goddess of War, already planned this far?

He was just pondering how to break through the protective formation of Sword Forest Mountain, but now, the entire formation has collapsed on its own without any attack.

“Patriarch Xia, you don’t need to be cautious. The people I’m killing now are just some of the spies from the Qianheng Holy Dynasty and the Yellow Spring Ghost Sect who have infiltrated your Xia family.”

"Don't you ever think about why I'm here when you've acted so meticulously and ordered your people to stay at home and not leave Jianlin Mountain without your permission?"

Donghuang Yiren shook her head slightly. She had thought Xia Zhuliu was a smart person, but now she realized that she had underestimated his stupidity.

"No! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

"You're lying to me! You must be lying to me!"

Xia Zhuliu raised his hand and flicked it, and a long sword was already in his grasp.

At that moment, all his pride and smugness vanished instantly, replaced by deep terror.

He couldn't believe that the Xia family, after years of hard work, could be so easily defeated.

He couldn't believe that with his methods, the core of the Xia family had been infiltrated with so many spies!

"what!"

At this moment, the eldest elder of the Xia family suddenly let out an extremely shrill scream.

Because at that moment, his heart had been suddenly ripped out by the Second Elder with a Black Tiger Heart Strike.

Of course, the Second Elder alone could not have accomplished this.

The instant the Second Elder made his move, the Third Elder's powerful spiritual attack struck the First Elder's sea of ​​consciousness, causing him to lose his senses for a brief moment.

After doing all this, the Second Elder and the Third Elder also retreated together.

The same scene is happening in almost every corner.

The Xia family has never slaughtered any cultivators of the Great Qin Dynasty; they only provided resources and intelligence. Given that they are a family of meritorious officials, it is very likely that they will submit to the Great Qin Dynasty again.

To prevent the Great Qin from becoming even stronger, the Huangquan Ghost Sect and the Qianheng Holy Dynasty's spies have also taken action, killing many of the Xia family's powerful members.

"you……"

"Pfft!"

Xia Zhuliu spat out a mouthful of blood. If he still didn't understand what had happened at this point, then he would truly be a pig.

However, Xia Zhuliu still couldn't understand why this was happening!

"Xia Zhuliu, even now, don't you understand?"

east

Huang Yiren's voice continued to be heard.

Please enlighten me!

Although he was already somewhat distraught and extremely angry, Xia Zhuliu still suppressed his rage and said...

"The Xia family of Jianlin is a meritorious family of the Great Qin Dynasty."

"If you can betray the Great Qin under such circumstances, how can the Qianheng Holy Dynasty trust you?"

Donghuang Yiren stopped there and didn't continue.

Xia Zhuliu didn't ask any further questions. There were many things he might not understand if Donghuang Yiren didn't tell him.

But now that Donghuang Yiren has spoken, he understands.
