Chapter 146 Seizing the Palace
On the day of the beginning of summer, Emperor Li Boqian went to the morning court as usual to review memorials, mix with Zaoji and enjoy Xianling incense..
Although the Absolute Beginning was at war with Dongxia, it did not affect the Supreme One of the 95th..
Li Boqian did not notice that a drastic change was about to take place..
Near midnight, the streets of Kaiyuan City were very quiet due to curfew. Only some soldiers on night patrol occasionally passed by. A watchman strolled along the street with a lantern and a bamboo stick. When he walked to the door of a huge courtyard, he immediately looked flustered..
This place was none other than the famous Qing Yan Hall in Taichu Dynasty. It was the residence of Qinghe experts. Those Qinghe experts enjoyed a lot of privileges in Taichu territory. Because of their strong strength and unpredictable methods, ordinary people kept a respectful distance from them, afraid of provoking these evil stars..
When the watchmen walked past the front door of the Clear Evolution Hall, they quickened their pace and wanted to leave quickly. However, things went contrary to their wishes. The front door of the Clear Evolution Hall suddenly opened and people started to rush out. These Qinghe people were all wearing armor and holding weapons. They looked aggressive..
To avoid trouble, the watchman ran away. However, the Qing Yan Hall expert did not seem to be prepared to let him go. Someone immediately caught up to him..
He looked back in panic. Seeing that he was about to be caught up, since he couldn't escape, he simply didn't run. He knelt down and kowtowed to the person who caught up..
" Sir, my little one…" Before he could finish begging for mercy, Qing He Ren, who was chasing after him, slashed his neck with a knife. Blood spurted out. He looked incredulous. He never thought that he would be killed just by passing by..
About 5,000 Qing and Jia Shi came out of Qing Yan Hall. They did not stop and rushed towards the direction of the Imperial Palace. As long as they met anyone on the way, they would be mercilessly killed without hesitation..
When the experts of Qing Yan Hall attacked Dongxia in the south, Qing Yan Hall could hide so many Qing He soldiers, which had nothing to do with the privilege of Qing Yan Hall..
The leader of these Qinghe people was naturally the Heavenly General Mucheng Tuo. He also had many grandmaster experts with him, including the God-controlling Master Dong Qilin He who possessed the type of divine element cry and the girl Doudou who possessed the strange type of divine puppet. These were two quasi-sage experts..
On Mucheng Tuo's left side was a general. This man was in his forties and was tall and muscular. He was much taller than ordinary Qinghe soldiers. He held a huge pheasant knife in his hand and every movement he made was filled with power..
He was the only general who followed Mucheng Tuo among the four generals under General Tian. The other three led 100,000 troops to the north, west and south of Taichu Dynasty respectively..
This Earth General's name was Nanzhe Muye. His strength had also reached the grandmaster realm. This person was straightforward and brave, but he was not good at strategy. He was not suitable as a commander, but he was more than enough as a vanguard general..
Therefore, Nanzhe Mu also stayed by Mucheng Tuo's side for a long time as General Tian's guard leader. At this time, Nanzhe Mu was also asking Mucheng Tuo honestly with a puzzled look: "General Tian, if the target is only the Taichu Emperor, what's the use of wasting so much effort to get these 5,000 armored soldiers here?" Mucheng Tuo was a little helpless about his own guard leader who was not very smart, but he still explained to Nanzhe Mu impatiently: " Mu Ye, our target isn't just the Taichu Emperor. Of course, the Taichu Emperor is the most important target. However, we want the entire Kaiyuan City, including the Imperial Palace!" Nanzhe Mu scratched his head and his expression became even more confused. He said," Why did we take down this isolated city? Besides, isn't it too much of a joke for these five thousand people to occupy a city?".
Mucheng Tuo smiled mysteriously and said,"I have my own methods. Everything in this city is under my control. After taking down the Emperor and Kaiyuan City, we can control the Emperor to give orders to the entire Yingzhou. At that time, everything will be simple.".
Mucheng Tuo turned to look at Nanzhe Muye. Nanzhe Muye obviously didn't understand what he said and was racking his brains to think, but looking at him, he couldn't think of a reason for a while..
In the emperor's bedchamber, Li Boqian, the Emperor of Absolute Beginning, had fallen asleep after having sex. Today, under Zaoji's deliberate control, Li Boqian only lasted for a moment before losing his armor. Li Boqian only thought that he had been too tired these two days and didn't take it to heart..
Zaoji didn't sleep. Nine tail rings came out of her body and surrounded Li Boqian tightly, ready to attack at any time..
A large number of Qinghe soldiers appeared outside Yingtian Gate of Taichu Palace. With the help of many powerful shikigami, Qinghe soldiers quickly opened Yingtian Gate and entered the palace..
The Imperial Guards reacted quickly and immediately rose up to fight against the Qinghe Army. However, the Qinghe Army had the advantage in numbers and many grandmasters helped them. Soon, they broke through the resistance of the Imperial Guards. The Qinghe Army kept pushing forward, causing heavy casualties to the Imperial Guards..
Jin Xinglan, the commander of the Yulin Army, came to the door of the Emperor's bedroom at this moment. He knelt before the door and said," Your Majesty, the people of Qinghe are attacking the Imperial Palace. Qinghe has betrayed the alliance. The Imperial Concubine is a woman of Qinghe. Please separate yourself from the Imperial Concubine first to avoid any complications..
Jin Xinglan's tone was very respectful, but the meaning he said was not very pleasant. He obviously wanted to catch Zaoji..
Li Boqian's slightly angry voice came from the bedroom." What does Qinghe have to do with the imperial concubine? Commander Jin should try his best to retreat. How can I be hurt by a weak woman?" Although Li Boqian was awakened, Zaoji had already controlled him with nine tails. He could not move or make any sound at this time..
The voice just now actually came from Zaoji's mouth. I don't know what method Zaoji used to imitate Li Boqian's voice without any flaws..
Jin Xinglan naturally had no choice but to arrange for the Yulin Army to guard the Emperor's bedroom. She also instructed the Yulin Army to allow them to rush into the Emperor's bedroom if they found anything unusual. Jin Xinglan would bear the consequences alone..
Jin Xinglan was puzzled. She kept feeling that something was wrong, but she could not recall it at the moment..
It was difficult for the Imperial Guards to stop the Qinghe Army, which had a large number of grandmasters. The Qinghe people soon broke into the last palace in front of the emperor's bedchamber-Orchid Pool Hall..
Mucheng Tuo, who was dressed in gorgeous armor, took the lead and rushed to the front of the crowd. He held a strange weapon that looked like a knife but not a knife, and that looked like a sword but not a sword. He kept killing the armored soldiers of the Yulin Army who were blocking the front..
When Mucheng Tuo Xing arrived in front of Orchid Pool Palace Hall, something happened suddenly. Several sword qi broke the doors and windows of Orchid Pool Palace and headed straight for Mucheng Tuo..
Mucheng Tuo had expected the Absolute Beginning experts to ambush him. He wasn't surprised at all. He waved his weapon to block and shouted calmly," Dong Lin, Doudou, come and help.".
The sword light dissipated, and eight swordsmen stood in Orchid Pool Hall with swords in their hands. Each of them had the cultivation of a grandmaster. This was a very terrifying power. As a dynasty that lasted for hundreds of years, it was obvious how deep its foundation was..
When these grandmaster swordsmen saw that their attack failed, they immediately surrounded Mucheng Tuo. Sword Qi filled the entire Orchid Pool Palace courtyard. Mucheng Tuo's weapons shone brightly and he tried his best to block the sword Qi. Even if he was a quasi-sage expert, he would still be surrounded by eight grandmaster experts..
However, this situation did not last for long. An arrogant young man with an electric spear rushed to Mucheng Tuo and blocked many attacks for him. Then, a sweet girl's voice came from behind him." Little Tuo Tuo, sister is here to help you!" Mucheng Tuo rolled his eyes and looked helpless..
:.
: Doudou followed Mucheng Tuo all the way, but she never made a move. When Mucheng Tuo called her, she rushed up and summoned her god puppet..
Doudou looked excited when he saw the sword Qi flying everywhere." What a beautiful sword light. It's similar to Xiaolan's sword moves. If I knew there were so many interesting people in the palace, I would have brought Terror to play. It's meaningless to play with Xiaolan alone.".
" Little Terror, it's our turn. Let's go! Terror is flying everywhere!" Doudou threw the Terror Puppet at Mucheng Tuo, Shi Shen Suming, and the eight Taichu swordsmen who were fighting fiercely. Then, he shouted loudly," Little Terror, be careful. Fight those who hold swords. Don't fight Little Tuo and Little Mingming!" The Terror Puppet started to split up quickly. The Terror Puppet was flying everywhere. They quickly pounced on those swordsmen..
Terror puppet is obedient indeed, did not attack Mucheng Takuwa style god Su Ming.
However, Doudou's address made Mucheng Tuo freeze. He said awkwardly," Doudou, can we change our address? It's embarrassing for me to call you that…" Doudou made a face at Mucheng Tuo and said," I don't want it! If you don't let me call you that, I won't play with you anymore!" Mucheng Tuo was shocked when he heard this, and his tone softened a little." Grandma, call me whatever you want, okay?.
If he didn't agree to her request, Doudou would really throw a tantrum and would really defect to the enemy. Mucheng Tuo couldn't afford to offend this little girl with a special status..
Doudou then smiled in satisfaction." That's good. I'll help you beat them up!" Dong Linhe, Shi Shensuming's God Commander, watched Mucheng Tuo suffer defeat from behind the crowd and thought to himself," I dodged a disaster. Fortunately, Su Ming was called Su Ming and not me." Under Doudou's command, the Terror Puppet unleashed its might. Countless terrifying puppets attacked the eight swordsmen. Under the puppet's interference, Mucheng Tuo and Shi Shensuming began to gain the upper hand..
Nanzhe Mu had also dealt with the Imperial Palace's Imperial Guards who were constantly rushing over. He had brought two grandmaster god trainers into Orchid Pool Palace, and the situation was getting worse for the Taichu Swordsmen..
Mucheng Tuo smiled proudly and said," Let's go together and kill them all!"" Shiki: Lord of the Mountain!"" Shiki: Deer Bell!" Nanzhe Muye and the two Shiki gods also rushed towards the eight swordsmen..
The Shishen named Mountain Lord was covered in a suit of stone armor. His skin was black, and his short white hair had a pair of long horns. Three divine swords surrounded him. His body was smaller than Su Ming, and his aura was weaker than Su Ming..
The god called Lu Ling is a female figure. She is handsome, has two antlers, has long black hair, and has a slender figure. She wears a clean bathrobe that does not completely cover her proud breasts..
She wore bells on her hands and feet, and her every move had a crisp ring. She held a huge longbow in her hand. The longbow had a strange shape, and the bow looked like a curved sword..
She didn't carry any arrows with her. She didn't know how to launch an attack with this strange longbow..
The two Shi gods moved a little faster than Nanzhe Mu. They took the lead in launching an attack..
The God Commander of the Lord of Mountains shouted," Move mountains!" The Lord of Mountains received the order and grabbed a floating divine sword. He slashed at the direction of the Absolute Beginning Swordsman. An illusory hill appeared out of thin air. The hill gradually materialized and smashed towards the Absolute Beginning Swordsman..
Lu Ling's God Controller was also a female, but at this moment, the God Controller didn't move at all. Her entire body was enveloped by a red light beam, and the God Controller's eyes were closed as she floated in the air. Clearly, she had already used the Spirit Teleportation Technique..
Lu Ling's expression became lively. She shouted softly," Shadow Chasing Light!" Her delicate hands actually grabbed the hilt of the curved blade. Fortunately, Lu Ling was a spirit body. If it were a physical body, it would inevitably be torn apart..
Lu Ling pulled the bowstring backward with her other hand, and a red light suddenly appeared out of thin air and transformed into an arrow. She released her grip on the bowstring, and the red light broke through the air and headed straight for the Absolute Beginning Swordsman..
The eight grandmaster swordsmen who were already fighting hard with the three semi-sage masters had no spare energy to resist the sharp attacks of these two shikigami. Danger was about to arrive..
At this critical moment, a voice rang out from behind Orchid Pool Hall: " Chaotian Que, go!" A dazzling sword soared into the sky and stabbed at the small mountain conjured by the Mountain Lord at an extremely fast speed. The small mountain was directly smashed into countless pieces by the sword and disappeared into the air..
After shattering the hill, the sword did not stop. It rushed towards the red light shot out by the Deer Bell again. When the two came into contact, the red light collapsed. After the sword easily blocked the attacks of the two Shi Gods, a figure appeared above the Orchid Pool Hall..
That person formed a sword seal, extended two fingers and waved lightly. The sword immediately flew back to his hand..
How many swordsmen were so powerful in the Taichu Palace? Jin Xinglan, commander of the Yulin Army, had arrived.
