The Magic Continent was attacked by the power projection of the ultimate cosmic demons from high dimensions, turning the Magic Continent into a chaotic mess, with space shattered into multiple dime...
"You don't have to kneel, but you are not from the Lin family, so please don't interfere in this matter." The general was obviously afraid to back down.
After all, this was the first time the general saw someone ignoring the imperial edict. He was either a daring madman or someone who was really capable!
"Tell me the content of the imperial edict first." Wang Xiaohai didn't say he would help, nor did he say he wouldn't help. He just wanted to listen to what it said first.
The general opened the imperial edict and read it out:
"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor decrees that Lin Weide deliberately murdered the Imperial Concubine and the heir to the throne. This is a heinous crime. According to the criminal law, all three clans must be exterminated. Everyone in the Lin Mansion must be executed. This is my decree."
"Impossible! My father would never do such a thing!" Lin Yiyi stood up. "He's a good man. He always taught me that as a doctor, I must have a medical heart and medical ethics. I wouldn't harm patients, not even ordinary people, let alone murder the heir to the throne or the imperial concubine!"
"Yes, the master is not that kind of person. He must have been framed and falsely accused!" The second wife of the Lin family stood up and said.
"False accusation? Who would frame you?" the general said coldly. "Third Imperial Guard, take my orders! Kill every last one in the Lin Mansion. Leave no one alive!"
The soldiers who followed the general raised their spears and charged at the people in the palace.
A sword light spread out like water waves, and all the soldiers who were holding spears to destroy the Lin tribe fell down, their bodies broken into two.
Only the general was left standing there alone. He was a general in the Golden Martial Realm, but he couldn't even see when Wang Xiaohai made his move!
I saw a red long sword in Wang Xiaohai's hand, as if it was made of blood.
"You!" The general took two steps back, sweat dripping down his face. He was also afraid of death. There are only two kinds of people who are not afraid of death: one is an idiot, and the other is a brainwashed person.
Zhuang Country only had one newly arrived Awakened being serving as a tribute. This young man was probably also an Awakened. Could he be an Awakened from another country? The general trembled and said, "You can't kill me. I'm only here to read the imperial edict. I'm just the sword, not the one holding it!"
"But if the person holding the knife tries to chop me with it, I can break the knife. Is that okay?" Wang Xiaohai pointed his red sword at the general. A flash of red light appeared, and the general's hand holding the knife fell off. "I'll spare your life. Take me to the palace to find the person holding the knife."
"Impossible. I am loyal to the Zhuang Kingdom, and my family has been blessed by the emperor for generations. I can't take you with me!" The general picked up the knife with his left hand, slashed it with his strength, and committed suicide in the Lin Mansion.
Everyone in the Lin Mansion screamed and dodged, trembling. They thought that this son-in-law had destroyed the imperial edict without any explanation and killed the general and soldiers. Now the Lin Mansion was finished, and even they, the servants, would be implicated!
"Why did you kill the general of the imperial palace?" The second wife of the Lin family walked up to Wang Xiaohai. "There is no room for redemption now, no way out!"
Wang Xiaohai placed his sword on the Second Wife's shoulder and said, "Be polite when speaking to me. What escape route do you still want? The imperial decree has been announced. Could it be that the Emperor of Zhuang would go back on his word and break his promise?"
The second wife of the Lin family turned pale with fright and didn't dare to say another word.
Lin Yiyi walked to Wang Xiaohai's side and said, "Don't kill my Second Mother. She's actually not a bad person. She just speaks without thinking sometimes."
"Would you like to go to the palace with me?" Wang Xiaohai put away his sword. He planned to go to the palace to see what was going on. At least Lin Yiyi was his savior.
Lin Yiyi nodded. She really wanted to know what was going on. Such a sudden change happened at home. She was at a loss for a moment and had no idea what to do!
Wang Xiaohai opened the door to the mansion and walked out. Lin Yiyi followed him in a daze.
"You'd better be mentally prepared and plan for the worst." Wang Xiaohai reminded Lin Yiyi.
Lin Yiyi's heart felt like it was struck by a heavy hammer. She was a smart person and knew what Wang Xiaohai meant. In an instant, she could no longer control her tears and they flowed down her cheeks. "Dad, I haven't been filial to you for all these years. I haven't made you your favorite smoked duck. Brother, when you last went to the palace, I got mad at you, blaming you for being so focused on work that you had no time to spend with our family... I'm sorry, I shouldn't have gotten so angry."
Wang Xiaohai stopped and picked up Lin Yiyi horizontally.
"You...what are you doing!" Lin Yiyi stopped crying and hit Wang Xiaohai, "Let me go."
"I guess you don't have the strength to walk now. I'll take you there and let you get revenge with your own hands." Wang Xiaohai said.
Lin Yiyi stopped twisting and struggling. She felt her body lighten and moved forward like a cloud.
Wang Xiaohai did not fly arrogantly. After all, he had just arrived in this place and needed to keep a low profile.
Although he had never been to the palace, he saw the place where the horses in the palace stayed, and from the traces of horse hoof prints on the ground, he knew the direction.
In order to take care of the ordinary person Lin Yiyi, Wang Xiaohai could not move too fast, so it took him three minutes to arrive at the Xuanwu Gate of the imperial palace.
Although Zhuang State was not a wealthy country, the imperial palace was built in an extremely exquisite and magnificent manner, not inferior to those of large countries. Behind the Xuanwu Gate was a towering palace, the farthest part of which was hidden in the clouds and mist, and it was extremely spacious. Countless long corridors connected the halls, and the pillars were carved with dragons and phoenixes. Grass and flowers were planted along the corridors, and gardens were built every few hundred meters, with rockery and fish ponds.
"Who are you two? You are not allowed to enter the restricted area of the palace!" Several guards behind the door saw Wang Xiaohai was about to enter without stopping, so they drew their swords and shouted.
Wang Xiaohai ignored him and rushed in.
He was not very familiar with the way to the palace. He originally spared the general's life so that he could lead the way. After the general committed suicide, although it was a little troublesome, if he looked carefully, he could still find the hall where the emperor was. He just had to find the tallest and largest one!
It seems that we need to fly to find them. Wang Xiaohai was just about to take off into the air with Lin Yiyi in his arms when he heard footsteps around him. A team of imperial guards, led by their captain, surrounded the two of them.
"Form a formation!" the captain of the guards shouted.
The soldiers surrounding Wang Xiaohai and the other man burst into green energy, pointed their spears at Wang Xiaohai, and moved their feet counterclockwise, and the entire team slowly turned.
If Wang Xiaohai hadn't brought Lin Yiyi with him, he would definitely not have let these guards catch up with him.
Wang Xiaohai held Lin Yiyi in one hand and drew his sword with his right hand. A circle of light spread outward. The moment it touched the guards, he changed his mind and decided not to take their lives. He changed the angle and the sword light flew up diagonally, cutting off everyone's spears. He took advantage of the moment when everyone was still stunned to escape from the encirclement.
"You are so powerful. You are not a warrior in the Qingwu realm, right?" Lin Yiyi covered her eyes when she was surrounded just now. Unexpectedly, when she opened her eyes, Wang Xiaohai had already come out.
"I used to be," said Wang Xiaohai.
It seems that Wang Xiaohai was still in the Qingwu realm a few months ago, but now he has awakened. No one can believe the speed at which his strength is improving!
"In the distance, hidden in the mist, there is a gilded palace. It should be the residence of the Emperor of Zhuang State."
Wang Xiaohai concentrated his martial energy in front of him, and his vision seemed to be enhanced, with the effect of penetrating the fog.
