Chapter 122: Fear.
Edited by: Mochiusagi
It was the night of the full moon.
Emperor Li Sheng was standing in the White Jade Square. By his side, were many red-clothed eunuchs guarding him and preventing any accidents.
“Your Majesty, this place is too dangerous. I can quietly escort Your Majesty out of the city. In this way, even if Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue really do come, they will not threaten Your Majesty…”
Eunuch Liu glanced at the sky and whispered.
“No.”
Emperor Li Sheng shook his head.
If he can’t even guard the Imperial Palace, then what’s the point of being the Emperor?
“Then even if this old slave dies, I will keep Your Majesty safe and sound.”
Eunuch Liu said solemnly.
After several hours, the sky gradually became dark.
The bright moon hung in the sky, releasing it’s brilliant moonlight.
“He has come.”
At this moment, the Commander of the Imperial Army was shocked.
He saw a white clothed man standing on top of a Palace.
Even though he was looking at the man from a distance, the Commander still felt that he was looking at a sharp sword that would cut him and everything in between.
“Baiyun City Lord, Ye Gucheng.”
The Commander was shocked.
He didn’t expect that Ye Gucheng would be so strong, to the point that his aura alone was enough to make him unable to look at the latter directly.
“Don’t panic.”
“Wait until they both arrive, and then actually start fighting.”
Emperor Li Sheng glanced at the Grade 1 Great Grandmasters beside him and said.
“Yes.”
The Commander answered.
Soon, Ximen Chuuxue also appeared, facing Ye Gucheng with a distance between the two.
“You are late.”
Ye Gucheng looked at Ximen Chuuxue and said.
“I know.”
“I’m late.”
Ximen Chuuxue admitted frankly.
“Two years ago, two great Peak Grade 1’s died here. I thought at the time that there was a Grade 1 Great Perfection here…”
Ximen Chuuxue’s eyes turned slightly, and he scanned the entire Imperial Palace.
“But now it seems that there is none at all…”
Ximen Chuuxue shook his head.
He has been obsessed with the Sword since he was a child. His Sword Heart can perceive any possible crisis nearby.
It is with his Sword Heart that helped him survive through many disasters.
At this moment, Ximen Chuuxue didn’t feel any danger in the Palace.
If there really was a Grade 1 Great Perfection in the Palace, his Sword Heart should have already felt it by now.
Even if a Grade 1 Great Perfection is powerful, but as long as that Master doesn’t go beyond the scope of the 9 Grades, it can’t escape his Sword Heart.
“Yes.”
“There is no Grade 1 Great Perfection here.”
Baiyun City Lord Ye Gucheng agreed. He lowered his head and indifferently said: “It seems that before we discuss with our swords, we have to deal with some ants…”
With Ye Gucheng’s eyesight, he naturally discovered the numerous Grade 1 Great Grandmasters that’s in the Imperial Palace.
“Indeed.”
“I think so too.”
Ximen Chuuxue nodded.
Although he is obsessed with swords, he is not a fool. He would not just allow anyone to have an opportunity to strike him while they were fighting.
His and Ye Gucheng’s battle would leave the survivor seriously injured. At that time, once surrounded by a group of Grade 1 Great Grandmasters, then their life will certainly be in danger.
“In that case, let’s do it.”
The long sword behind Ye Gucheng suddenly let out a cry, then a horrible sword light gathered and cut towards the White Jade Square.
“Not good!!!”
The Commander immediately discovered something was wrong, and immediately took Emperor Li Sheng away, retreating wildly.
The same is true for the other Grade 1 Great Grandmasters. They wouldn’t be able to resist such Sword Light.
“The gap is too big.”
Emperor Li Sheng’s fighting spirit was doused.
In his eyes, the Ye Gucheng and the other Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmasters were completely on another level of existence.
It’s not that the Emperor Li Sheng has never seen a Peak Grade 1 take action. After all, before the death of Emperor Tang, he had seen Eunuch Zhao take action.
But compared with Eunuch Zhao, Ye Gucheng seems much scarier.
“Assemble the army into the city.”
“Also, all Grade 1 Great Grandmasters are to begin lining up.”
Emperor Li Sheng took a deep breath and gave several orders in a row.
Neither Ye Gucheng nor Ximen Chuuxue have become a Legend yet. Since this is the case, they were still susceptible to tactics.
This was the last card Emperor Li Sheng had.
At this time, Ye Gucheng slightly frowned.
“Brother Ye, it seems that the Palace still has some background…”
Ximen Chuuxue said.
Dozens of Grade 1 Great Grandmasters stood in a certain position. They were constantly changing and turning like a giant net that’s trying to trap Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue.
This is Emperor Li Sheng’s plan.
He doesn’t expect that the Grade 1 Great Grandmaster would be able to compete with Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue. What he wanted was only to trap the two for a while, wait until the army entered the city and overwhelm them with numbers.
“Background?”
Ye Gucheng smiled contemptuously. He slowly pulled out the long sword behind him.
“Under my Sword, everything will be cut down.”
Then next moment.
[Weng~!!!]
A Sword Light that’s ten times more terrifying than the previous one appeared, and a terrifying Sword Intent covered all directions.
…
At the same time in the East Palace’s Right Spring Square.
Su Qin’s eyes slowly opened.
“After a year of cultivating, I finally made improvements…”
Su Qin has a smile on his face.
Then Su Qin suddenly felt something. He raised his head slightly and looked towards the White Jade Square.
“They have come?”
Su Qin shook his head.
He was immersed in Cultivation just now, so he ignored the outside world.
“Since you’re already here.”
“Just stay here forever.”
Su Qin didn’t move his body but he raised his right hand and released a ray of Sword Light, then sent it towards the White Jade Square.
…
White Jade Square.
As Ye Gucheng pulled out the long sword behind him, the entire White Jade Square was filled with fierce Sword Energy.
The Grade 1 Great Grandmasters who have just set up the formation just felt their scalps tingle and they cannot continue to hold the Formation.
“It’s over.”
Emperor Li Sheng sighed in his heart.
The Sword Light that Ye Gucheng sent enveloped the White Jade Square, which naturally included him.
Emperor Li Sheng’s plan was for the Grade 1 Great Grandmasters to drag Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue with the formation, then let the army attack them.
But he didn’t expect that even before the army could enter the city, they didn’t last long enough.
“Die for me!”
Ye Gucheng slowly waved his long sword and was about to slash it down.
But then, he suddenly felt something and looked in a certain direction deep in the Imperial Palace.
However, as he looked, Ye Gucheng saw an unforgettable scene.
He saw a Sword Light that was coming his way.
At the moment of seeing this Sword Light, Ye Gucheng felt that the world started to become illusory.
The same applies to his Body, Internal Strength and even Divine Sense.
He felt fear as he watched the Sword Light approach.
