Imperial capital, South City District.

As one of the five most prosperous lower districts of the imperial capital, the architecture of the South District is quite modern, with high-rise buildings popping up everywhere, which is completely different from the upper three districts.

If it were placed in other places, the prosperous commerce represented by Nancheng District would be enough to become the center of a city.

However, in the imperial capital, this prosperous place is actually where the lower class people of the imperial capital live.

The seven-day solar eclipse had already blocked off the entire southern city area, and not a single car could be seen on the wide streets.

Weiwei He Shao led a thousand golden-armored cavalrymen through the empty streets of the South City District. The patrolling troops stopped and saluted when they saw He Shao.

As the cavalry marched forward, they soon approached their destination, Princess Tianxing's Mansion.

This is a vast manor with extremely gorgeous architecture and gardens, but it seems a bit out of place in the core area of ​​the southern city surrounded by high-rise buildings.

Princess Tianxing's mansion was chosen to be located in the South City District, one of the five lower city districts, which to a large extent represented that Emperor Xia had almost undisguised dislike for Princess Tianxing.

In the eyes of the upper echelons of the imperial capital, Emperor Xia's move was to actively expel Princess Tianxing from the center of power.

However, as she turned the tide at the meeting with the underworld, Princess Tianxing gained recognition from many dignitaries in the imperial capital and ministers in the court, and many of them even took the initiative to visit Princess Tianxing at her mansion.

But with the coming of the solar eclipse and the departure of the underworld gods to the Fang Cun Secret Realm, Emperor Xia dismissed Princess Tianxing from all her positions, and this mansion, which had originally attracted many dignitaries, became deserted.

And today, He Shao came here on the orders of Emperor Xia to kill them all.

Thinking of this, a hint of helplessness flashed across He Shao's eyes.

When they arrived at the gate of the mansion, the golden-armored cavalry had already subdued the guards of Princess Tianxing's mansion. He Shao walked straight towards the hall inside the mansion.

In the hall, Xia Yunqiu, dressed in a black gown with a phoenix pattern, sat leaning on the first seat, looking at He Shao, who was wearing armor and walking like a tiger and a dragon, without any surprise in her eyes.

After leaving the imperial city, He Shao led his cavalry directly to the South City District without concealing anything. Naturally, Xia Yunqiu was aware of his movements early on.

In fact, the time that He Shaoda spent at Princess Tianxing's mansion was enough for Xia Yunqiu to escape, but she did not leave.

She knew very well that if she took the opportunity to escape and did not dare to face the imperial edict of Emperor Xia, she would directly lose the protection of human destiny, which would be in line with the wishes of Emperor Xia.

On the contrary, if the Xia Emperor's decree is unfair, confronting it head-on with humanity may give one a glimmer of hope.

He Shao walked into the hall holding the imperial edict in his hand. Seeing Xia Yunqiu who did not escape, a little disappointment flashed in his eyes. He said loudly to Xia Yunqiu:

"Princess Tianxing accepts the order!"

Xia Yunqiu slowly stood up and bowed toward the imperial edict in He Shao's hand. Her manner was elegant without any sign of presumptuousness.

"The Emperor, in compliance with the Will of Heaven, proclaims:

Princess Tianxing Xia Yunqiu and the clan secretly conspired to sabotage the Grand Ceremony of the City God, shaking the foundation of the dynasty and the destiny of humanity, which was actually a rebellion of the human race.

Although Xia Yunqiu has royal blood, as the emperor of Da Xia, I should not use my bloodline to protect my offspring and thus shake the foundation of Da Xia.

From now on, Xia Yun will be stripped of her title of Princess Qiu Tianxing, her Wuxuan Pavilion will be destroyed, and she will be given a cup of poisoned wine!"

As one of the Nine Ministers, He Shao himself represents the Great Xia Dynasty.

As the imperial edict came down, it was as if a ray of sword light transformed from the dynasty's luck slashed into her soul, and the title of Princess Tianxing bestowed upon her was completely stripped away by the dynasty's luck.

Xia Yunqiu's face suddenly turned pale, and the fortune of the dynasty lingering around her began to decline. The blazing fire of humanity's destiny also faded like rootless duckweed, leaving only sporadic fire that was about to go out.

After He Shao finished reading, a palace eunuch wearing a brocade red robe and with a gloomy face came forward with a cup of poisoned wine and said in a shrill voice:

"Your Highness, please drink this wine!"

Xia Yunqiu looked at the cup of poisoned wine.

Poison wine was originally a secret medicine of the Great Xia royal family. If it was combined with the Dragon-Tiger Pill refined by the royal family, it could greatly increase a person's spiritual power.

However, if there is only the poison wine without the Dragon-Tiger Pill as a supplement, this wine will become the most deadly poison in the world, which can destroy a person's soul and even a highly-skilled cultivator will find it difficult to resist.

The fact that Emperor Xia gave poisoned wine to him was enough to show how murderous he was.

Xia Yunqiu did not go forward to get the wine glass, but looked at Weiwei He Shao with burning eyes, her pale face filled with unprecedented solemnity.

"May I ask Weiwei, what crime has Yunqiu committed?"

Weiwei He Shao stammered, trying to repeat the charges listed in the imperial edict, but when the words came to his lips he could not continue.

Everyone knows that Xia Yunqiu has long been a thorn in the side of the sect members, and she has been staying in Princess Tianxing's mansion since the solar eclipse and has never had any contact with the sect.

The claim of conspiring with the sect to sabotage the Grand City God Ceremony was completely groundless.

But the imperial decree has been issued and there is no room for redemption.

There was thunder in the sky outside the Princess's Mansion, and heavy rain was pouring down. He Shao was silent for a long time, holding the imperial edict, and finally replied slowly:

"It's groundless!"

As these three words fell, all the officials in the imperial capital felt their hearts tremble. The fortune of the dynasty was shaken violently at this moment, as if an invisible building collapsed at this moment.

In particular, those practitioners who were blessed with the dynasty's good fortune all felt that their foundations were shaken, and their realms became unstable.

The humanitarian energy above the imperial capital was surging like a wave, and the golden dragon formed by the humanitarian energy gathered in the imperial city began to collapse and dissipated to other places in Jingzhou.

Far outside Jingzhou, in the barren mountains, old forests, and secret swamps, many demons felt that the human destiny that had pressed them into the deep mountains and old forests actually retreated at this moment.

Above the towns and villages outside the cities, the aura of humanity is almost too thin to be detected.

Inside the secret realm, the knowledgeable old demon suddenly showed joy on his face and shouted loudly:

"The Great Xia Emperor has gone against the grain and shaken the destiny of humanity. Such foolishness deserves the prosperity of our demon race!"

"Lead the Great Demon of Transformation to Jingzhou to investigate the cause of the shaking of the movement of human energy!"

"Once we find that the human race is in a bad situation, our demon race will take advantage of the situation and occupy some territory!"

Apart from these many demonic realms, in the famous rivers, within the dragon palaces and caves, the dragon clans in the four rivers and four seas all felt it.

"As humanity moves, our water tribe can take advantage of the situation and gain more incense and faith!"

"I will definitely avenge the Jidu Dragon Palace!"

"The human race is foolish, digging their own graves without knowing it. We, the water race, will seize the opportunity and return to heaven and earth!"

The foundation of the dynasty was damaged, the humanitarian movement had unpredictable and far-reaching consequences, and in Princess Tianxing's mansion, the unjust trial was still going on.

The eunuch with a grim face held the poisoned wine and his voice became sharper:

"Xia Yunqiu, drink this wine!"

Xia Yunqiu reached out and picked up the cup of poisoned wine, then threw it heavily to the ground.

The eunuch was shocked: "Xia Yunqiu, how dare you disobey my order? Send someone to capture her and kill her on the spot!"

Before he finished speaking, a white jade-like index finger touched the eunuch's forehead, and the powerful Yin God power wiped out the eunuch's soul. Then the powerful aura of a spiritual cultivator emanated from Xia Yunqiu, and the entire Princess Tianxing's mansion trembled.

Weiwei He Shao was suddenly shocked and realized that the Princess Tianxing in front of him was a rare great monk in the world.

The official seal on the waist moved without wind, and a thousand golden-armored cavalrymen formed a formation inside and outside the princess's mansion, connecting with the military formation of the imperial capital, and the murderous aura of the military strategists rose into the sky.

Spears were pointed directly at Xia Yunqiu, and the murderous aura of the soldiers was like shackles, trying to block Xia Yunqiu's Yin spirit power.

"presumptuous!"

A stern shout rang out from the princess's mansion. Xia Yunqiu took a step forward, with black and gold phoenix patterns flashing on her gorgeous clothes. The seals in her palms transformed into a Nine-Sky Mysterious Phoenix that fell from the sky and confronted the military formation.

In her, the almost extinguished fire of humanity was completely stabilized, and the flame that seemed to be extinguished by a breeze attracted the luck of humanity to bless her body.

Suddenly, as if because of the reading of the imperial edict that directly threatened the dynasty's fortune, a huge crack suddenly appeared on the official seal on Weiwei He Shao's waist.

The originally condensed military killing formation suddenly showed a flaw, and the power of the Nine-Sky Mysterious Phoenix tore through the military killing formation, and its body turned into a beam of light and rushed away into the distance.

Weiwei He Shao looked at the big seal on his waist with a look of inexplicable relief.

The captain at the side took the initiative to step forward and ask:

"Master He, should we go and give chase?"

He Shao glanced at the captain and said coldly:

"The official seal of the Dynasty's Qi Movement ** was damaged and can't form a killing formation. Do you think that without the protection of the killing formation, you can fight against a great monk who has reached the state of incarnation with your strength?

You should be thankful that Princess Tianxing has no intention of killing, otherwise no one present would have escaped."

The captain was suddenly choked and said no more.

He Shao turned around and mounted his mount, and said calmly:

"Notify the four major legions and tell them that Xia Yunqiu has escaped. The rest will be left to them."

Princess Tianxing was deposed, and Xia Yunqiu killed the messenger and fled in disobedience. When the news came out, it shocked the entire imperial capital.

After the news of the meeting in the underworld spread throughout Da Xia, the entire imperial capital knew that there was a Princess Tianxing who was as capable as any man, and many young people once regarded Xia Yunqiu as an idol.

If Xia Yunqiu had not been a woman and found it difficult for her to inherit the throne, she would have been qualified to compete for the throne given her reputation.

However, no one expected that just ten days after this incident, Princess Tianxing was stripped of her title and was wanted by the imperial court.

When everyone was shocked at the authenticity of the news, news about Xia Yunqiu being stripped of her princess title, being given poisoned wine, and the phrase "groundless" began to spread rapidly from somewhere.

All of a sudden, Xia Yunqiu's reputation skyrocketed again, and Emperor Xia's reputation began to collapse with the resentment accumulated over time.

Upper City District, the imperial capital market.

As the solar eclipse began, the imperial capital's market place went into martial law after the Soul Refining Master broke through the imperial capital's formation and entered the Fang Cun Secret Realm.

All the people related to the sect were purged to some extent, making the imperial capital's market no longer as prosperous as before.

Xia Yunqiu walked through the street with a calm expression, passing by the patrol guards, and vaguely saw the blocked Wuxuan Pavilion.

Because Xia Yunqiu's escape attracted everyone's attention, Wuxuan Pavilion was not demolished immediately, but was only temporarily blocked.

Activating the concealment technique, Xia Yunqiu was about to approach Wuxuan Pavilion.

At this moment, a cold voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

"I found you."

Xia Yunqiu was startled. A figure wrapped in a black robe appeared beside her at some point, and a cold gray hand slowly reached towards her neck.

With her cultivation level at the initial stage of Spiritual Transformation, she didn't even notice anything.

“Damn it!”

The power of the Yin God erupted forcefully. Xia Yunqiu used her magic power to try to resist, but she found that a cold breath had already penetrated into her limbs and bones.

Her magical powers, magic power, and spiritual power were all blocked by the cold aura. In front of that palm, she had no power to resist at all.

“The peak of the Divine Transformation!”

Xia Yunqiu was horrified.

As far as she knew, the Great Xia court had no heritage of blessed land, and there were no powerful people who had survived the last spiritual energy tide era.

In today's Daxia, apart from the unknown Imperial Astronomical Observatory who has the potential to reach the peak of the God Transformation Realm, there are only a few people in the early stage of the God Transformation Realm who are comparable to her.

In this situation, when a strange and powerful person at the peak of the Incarnation Realm suddenly attacked, how could she not feel afraid?

All her skills were blocked, her protective magic treasure was motionless, and deathly aura filled her brows.

"After struggling for so long, will I die here today?"

Suddenly, the originally solid fire of humanity in Xia Yunqiu's body dimmed a bit, leaving only a faint flame.

The cold aura that penetrated Xia Yunqiu's limbs and bones suddenly stagnated at this moment. The brief pause immediately made Xia Yunqiu sense of life.

The power of the Yin God activated the protective magic treasure to emit a burst of spiritual light, which completely expelled the cold aura that was blocking itself. Xia Yunqiu's body turned into a wisp of green smoke and fled forward.

The figure in black robe frowned and cursed in a low voice:

"Damn humanity!"

"But now that your title has been taken away, I want to see how many times you can use it."

The black-robed figure followed closely behind. His escape speed was far beyond that of Xia Yunqiu, who was only in the initial stage of Spirit Transformation. He was about to catch up in an instant.

"Someone sneaked in!"

At this moment, the patrol guards of the Imperial Capital Market finally reacted, and the Imperial Capital Formation was activated to block the entire market, cutting off the escape route.

At this moment, Xia Yunqiu flashed and gave up escaping to the outside world. She turned and went to the blocked Wuxuan Pavilion.

After crashing open the door of Wuxuan Pavilion, Xia Yunqiu suddenly felt a long-lost sense of security.

Before leaving, the Taoist priest had told her that if anything unusual happened in the imperial capital, entering the Wuxuan Pavilion could save her life.

The situation is now critical and there is no way out, she can only believe the Taoist priest's words.

The black-robed figure followed Xia Yunqiu into the attic. Looking at the beautiful woman standing in the middle of the hall, the black-robed figure said sarcastically:

"Have you given up resistance?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he used his magical powers and stepped forward.

Suddenly, the black-robed figure paused, and an ice-blue sword light was seen falling from the sky like a curtain of heaven, turning into a sword mark that divided the earth.

Gong Buyu, who was as cold and aloof as a fairy from the Moon Palace, walked slowly down into the air, her eyes indifferent and calm.

"One more step and you'll die!"
