At this moment, Eunuch Wu, who had fallen to the ground, looked pale. The palm strike just now had nearly taken his life, but there was no panic on his face. Instead, he closed his eyes calmly.

He had been following and taking care of the old emperor since he was a child, and he even taught him all his martial arts.

I am not only his slave, but also his master.

But he never received any respect from the old emperor, although he knew that this was too luxurious for a eunuch.

But he had ambitions in his heart, it's just that he has failed now, and he is willing to accept the defeat.

The old emperor glanced at the imperial guards and then at these seventh-level contestants.

"Excuse me, everyone. Please get rid of all these traitors!"

What he was referring to naturally included these masters of the Imperial Palace. They were all handpicked by Eunuch Wu and naturally obeyed Eunuch Wu's orders.

The imperial guards immediately began to fight, and for a moment a fierce fight broke out in the hall again.

These contestants all looked at the genius with holy light on his head. Although their mission was to protect the old emperor, they were not his subordinates and had to obey his orders.

He Yao from the Fuguang Holy Land nodded, indicating that they could take action.

At present, the overall strength of these imperial guards in the hall is similar to that of the palace masters. If they fight, the imperial guards will be the winner in the end.

But there will also be great casualties, so without their help, the Imperial Guards will inevitably suffer losses.

It would be better to take direct action and preserve some of the imperial guards' strength, so that their task would be easier.

With the intervention of these people, these palace masters were quickly wiped out.

At this time, Eunuch Wu, who was lying on the ground, closed his eyes.

"Old Dog Wu, why did you betray me?"

The old emperor said angrily at this moment.

There was still anger in his heart. Although he had already made up his mind to kill Wu Laogou, he still wanted to figure out what was going on.

This old dog Wu was the most loyal to me before.

If even he can betray me, then who else in this world will not betray me?

"You'll never understand."

Eunuch Wu gave a mocking smile, then suddenly raised his hand and slapped himself in the face.

Bang!

After this palm strike, he immediately died with blood gushing out of all seven orifices.

"you!"

Anger suddenly appeared on the old emperor's face, but he had no place to vent his anger at this moment.

The things he wanted to figure out, he might never understand.

Today, although he was victorious, he was not happy at all, not only because there were threats from foreign races and rebellious armies outside.

It’s also because there is no one around me who can help me.

Although I had always pretended to trust Prince Jing, the power I gave him was real. Now that he is dead, there are no longer so many capable people around me.

At this time, he turned his gaze to He Yao in front of him. Their overall strength was stronger than all the imperial guards in the palace combined.

And after experiencing these incidents, he has become more and more trusting of these people.

"My dear Minister He Yao! Now that Prince Jing and Eunuch Wu are dead, I wonder if you can take over their positions?" said the old emperor with a smile.

Naturally, he had to be absolutely polite to those he needed to win over.

But at this moment, He Yao said with a cold face: "Don't call me Aiqing, I am not your subordinate, I am just protecting you, it's that simple."

A gloomy look flashed across the old emperor's eyes. After being emperor for so many years, this was the first time someone dared to speak to him like this.

But even though he was unhappy in his heart, he could only keep smiling, because he needed the strength of these people, and now he was missing two generals.

Those big families and powerful forces in the imperial city are probably not intimidated by anyone. They are always thinking of joining forces with foreign races to oppose their rule.

"Okay, Brother He Yao, can you take these men of yours and head to the city..."

This time, before the old emperor could finish, He Yao interrupted him and said, "No, I'll tell you again, I'm not your subordinate, and they are not my subordinates either."

Now, He Yao finally understood why so many people wanted to rebel against him. This old emperor was born to think of himself as an emperor and he wanted to be in an absolute leadership position in everything.

The old emperor's face suddenly turned gloomy. In this hall, he was refuted in front of these imperial guards.

How can he save face after this?

"presumptuous!"

"How dare you speak to His Majesty like that!"

The surrounding imperial guards immediately drew their swords and took away their halberds from the contestants.

He Yao didn't say anything. He raised his hand and a palm print of golden light flew out, knocking the commander of the imperial guards away.

The surrounding imperial guards were also suppressed by others.

"You're really looking for death!"

He Yao looked directly at the old emperor and said, "How many times do you want me to tell you that we are not your subordinates? We are just here to make sure you are not killed."

"As for your Great Qin, what does it have to do with us?"

The old emperor narrowed his eyes and looked at him. At this moment, he was estimating the fighting strength of both sides in his mind, but in the end he came to a sad conclusion.

That is, even if they were combined, they would still be no match for the other side.

It seemed as if they had no ability to resist at all.

He Yao didn't waste any more time talking to him and simply stood guard outside the hall, not letting anyone in or out.

This of course also includes the old emperor himself, which is equivalent to putting him under house arrest here.

At this moment, the old emperor in the hall was very distressed. He originally thought that he had gained so many powerful subordinates at once.

But now it seems that these people are not only his subordinates, but are simply imprisoning him, although his safety is guaranteed.

But if an emperor is imprisoned, is he still the emperor?

Where is his imperial power? Where is his dignity?

If he lost these, it would be even more painful for him than if he were killed.

"I need to rest, you can't let me go back to the palace!"

The old emperor roared in the hall.
