As for whether his actions would plunge the Central Plains into war, or whether barbarians would slaughter the Central Plains, what did he care? He didn't care anyway.
"Father-in-law, you left in a rather hasty manner. Why didn't you let me see you off?"
Yang Cheng had somehow appeared on the outer wall of the mansion, wearing a straw hat and a black cloak, looking at Han Jin with a mocking expression.
Raindrops fell on Yang Cheng in the darkness, but they were torn into a cloud of water vapor an inch away from him, giving him a misty, ethereal feeling.
The Heaven-Stealing Divine Technique truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier internal energy cultivation method. It steals the power of heaven and earth for one's own use. Although it will have some backlash, the resulting increase in internal energy is incredibly powerful.
Yang Cheng could even distribute his internal energy throughout his body to shatter the raindrops, so that not a drop of rain would touch him. This was something that only top masters in the martial arts world could do.
This, of course, refers to Yang Cheng.
If anyone else were to practice this Heaven-Stealing Divine Technique, they might explode and die the first time they used it because their physical body could not contain such powerful spiritual energy.
"Yang Cheng! I never expected His Majesty would send my Imperial Guards to kill me!"
The ferocity on Han Jin's face turned into pleading: "Yang Cheng, our family has been kind to you. If it weren't for our help all the way, how could you have gotten to where you are today and be trusted by Zhou Heng?"
Considering our past relationship, please let us off the hook.
This is the gold and silver treasure I've accumulated throughout my life. I'll give you half... no! I'll give you eighty percent!
With these gold and silver treasures, you can choose to join the Golden Horde or the Jurchens in the north, or even establish yourself as king!
The Zhou family is cruel and ungrateful. I devoted my whole life to the Zhou family, and this is the same ending I got in return.
You're still young, get out of there as soon as possible, you still have a chance!
Han Jin knew Yang Cheng's strength; he was a master who could fight three opponents at once and severely injure the Tantric master of the Vajra Bright Wheel Temple.
So he tried to appeal to Yang Cheng's emotions and offer bribes, hoping that Yang Cheng would spare his life.
Yang Cheng said with a half-smile, "Father-in-law, with your eloquence, you should become a persuader and guess correctly."
What you say is true, but what you do is a different story.
When you speak of my kindness in recognizing my talent and providing me with support, are you referring to deliberately sowing discord between me and the other captains of the Imperial Guard, or intentionally undermining and suppressing me?
Han Jin's expression stiffened, and he said with a wry smile, "Yang Cheng, we were forced into this situation."
People in the martial world are often powerless to control their own destiny, and the same applies to those in the imperial court.
"Just let our family off the hook, and you can name your price!"
Yang Cheng waved his hand, and Zhang Meng, Yin Wuxie and the others had already arrived. They all climbed over the walls of the courtyard and surrounded Han Jin and the others.
Yang Cheng slowly drew his Imperial Guard sword and said calmly, "You may not know something, sir."
Actually, you didn't have to die. His Majesty still cherishes old friendships, but he intends to strip you of your position as Grand Eunuch.
It was I who brought in the Empress Dowager and asked her to give the order, which led His Majesty to decide to execute you.
I'm a pretty kind person; even if I kill someone, I don't want the victim to die a horrible death.
"Father-in-law, you can rest in peace today. I've come to see you off; at least our relationship will end properly."
Han Jin's eyes widened instantly, and his face gradually became extremely ferocious.
"Yang Cheng! I'll haunt you even as a ghost! If you want to kill me, we'll all die together today!"
Yang Cheng gently shook his head and said, "I've killed ghosts before. I remember coming here on the fifteenth of July, when the yin energy was heavy."
As soon as Yang Cheng finished speaking, he leaped down and charged directly at Han Jin, and Zhang Meng and the others followed suit.
At this moment, two men in black rushed out from beside Han Jin and blocked his way.
A man held a thin sword, exuding a chilling aura that was piercingly cold.
The other man was a burly figure, like a bull, clad in iron armor, with even his hands wearing iron gloves studded with spikes.
Zhang Meng quickly said, "Lord Yang, these two men are Han Jin's true confidants. Although they are also captains of the Imperial Guard, they only obey Han Jin."
The one with the sword is Fang Hanyu, who is said to be from a major demonic sect and possesses extremely insidious and vicious cold poison demonic arts.
The other is "Troll" Niu Yue, a madman who has integrated his black iron armor into his flesh, making it inseparable from his body. It's said that even a grandmaster-level expert was once worn down to death by them!
At this moment, Han Jin shouted like a madman, "Attack! Kill Yang Cheng, and all our gold and silver treasures will be yours!"
