Although the status of kings and nobles in the parliament is theoretically equal, everyone knows that it is only in theory.
How can an ordinary Golden Immortal stand on equal footing with a Taiyi Golden Immortal or even a Daluo Golden Immortal?
Therefore, when facing Marquis Liegu, Marquis Xuanming, and others, the Marquis of Zhengxi showed a slight respect.
Marquis Liegu Gao Zhengjie was about to nod when his eyes caught sight of Shen Qian beside him. He immediately became alert. "Shen Qian, what are you doing here?"
Only then did Zheng Xibo remember that there was a Shen Qian standing next to him. He hadn't even noticed that Lie Gu Hou used the word "this way" instead of "here".
Before Shen Qian could speak, Zheng Xibo sneered, "I don't know what right he, a mere Mountain and Sea Realm cultivator, has to be here. I'm about to personally drive him away..."
Upon hearing this, all the princes and nobles who had been greeting each other in the council fell silent in astonishment and turned to look at him.
Even Marquis Liegu and Earl Jiguang were somewhat stunned, looking at Earl Zhengxi with surprise.
The surroundings suddenly fell silent, but the Marquis of Zhengxi didn't seem to find anything amiss. He continued with a cold laugh, "Even if the Marquis of Jingcheng were still alive, let alone now that he's gone, he wouldn't tolerate your arrogance..."
Thump!
Originally just surprised, Marquis Gao Zhengjie was startled when he heard the outrageous words of the Duke of the West.
Has the Marquis of Zhengxi gone mad?
This was Gao Zhengjie's first reaction. Today was still the day of Gao Wenyuan's funeral, and Shen Qian had just killed Zhaoyuan Marquis as a sacrifice. How could you use Jingcheng Marquis to mock Shen Qian at this time?!
The other kings and nobles were also stunned.
Several hours ago, news of Shen Qian's killing of Zhao Yuanhou had spread around the world. Even the kings and nobles who were not present learned about the incident through their own channels and even watched the replay on the projector.
How dare the Marquis of Zhengxi provoke Shen Qian at this time... Who gave him the courage!
Before any of the kings and nobles could react, an almost tangible chill emanated from Shen Qian, who had been smiling, followed by an incomparably dazzling purple light.
"Sink before you go, no..."
Gao Zhengjie actually reacted very quickly, and his first thought was to protect Zheng Xibo.
But there are two points here. First, although everyone is very close, Zheng Xibo and Chen Qian are only a passageway apart!
Secondly, even Gao Zhengjie did not expect Shen Qian to act so decisively, without any regard for the occasion.
The blade's edge was too fast, so fast that Gao Zhengjie didn't even have time to warn Zheng Xibo... and even if he had, it probably wouldn't have made any difference.
The most unbelievable one was Wu Taifeng, the Marquis of Zhengxi, who faced the sharp blades directly.
As a seasoned king, although he had not expected Shen Qian to make a sudden move, he still made the appropriate response.
His first reaction was anger and murderous intent. What gave Shen Qian the audacity to attack him?
His understanding was still stuck at the stage of "there is only one person like Jiang Huan in this world".
Therefore, he even wanted to take this opportunity to kill Shen Qian legitimately, so that no one could find fault with him.
But the next second, Wu Taifeng felt like he was hallucinating.
Because this chilling blade light clearly comes from a Star-level psionic weapon!
The unbearable weight and the sharpness that could easily tear through space told Zheng Xibo that this was a genuine Star Blade, and of an extremely high grade!
The power of the stars that Zheng Xibo subconsciously summoned was torn to shreds by the blade light the moment it touched him. The crisis of death and the blade light that pierced through his body swept past him together, causing Zheng Xibo's mind to freeze completely.
"No!"
A desperate roar emanated from the soul of the Marquis of the West; he could not believe it, yet he had no choice but to believe it.
He was actually killed instantly by Shen Qian's "mere mountain and sea" with a single strike!
boom!
The aftershocks of the blade's energy spread outwards, leaving a deep trench inside the incredibly sturdy hall. It tore countless thrones apart along the way, and several kings and nobles cried out in alarm, not daring to stand still and let the blade's energy affect them.
This was already the result of Shen Qian precisely compressing the power of the blade's energy. He himself did not expect that the Jingji Blade, which had been dormant for hundreds of years, would unleash such terrifying destructive power when it was first drawn.
Let alone the Marquis of Zhengxi, even if the Marquis of Zhaoyuan were to come back to life, being caught off guard and struck by a sudden attack from Shen Qian at such close range, he would probably only end up dying again.
"Sink forward!"
After a moment of stunned silence, Gao Zhengjie stood up in a rage, shouting, "How dare you be so arrogant!"
This roar also awakened the other kings and nobles who had not yet come to their senses.
The figure of the Duke of Zhengxi had vanished without a trace. The hall was quiet, and all the kings and nobles present looked at each other, completely at a loss for words.
On the same day, Shen Qian killed two kings and nobles!
Although the Marquis of Zhengxi was far inferior to the Marquis of Zhaoyuan in terms of status, he was still a top expert among the human race.
Ironically... this matter doesn't seem to be entirely Shen Qian's fault.
"You all heard it too, he insulted me in the name of a teacher, what is death to him!"
Shen Qian said coldly, "Besides, he doesn't seem to be completely dead, does he?"
The assembled princes and nobles fell silent as they looked at Chen Qian, who stood there so confidently.
How should I put this...?
It is true that the Duke of Zhengxi is not completely dead; the kings and nobles present all had some sense of this.
After all, at their level, most kings and nobles would create clones if they had the opportunity. When ordinary martial artists see kings and nobles outside, they are usually there as clones.
The problem is, the mother of the Duke of Zhengxi is here in person today!
