"What Lu Xu said is really enough to make me angry!"
"No matter how cowardly Murong Qing is, he will explode completely, right?"
As she was thinking this, Ye Chuyao cast her beautiful eyes on Murong Qing.
She wanted to know how the ruler of the Izumo Dynasty would deal with this matter next.
Murong Qing hunched over slightly, licking his face, and asked again: "Messenger, we will definitely mobilize the whole country to gather those precious materials as soon as possible."
"Please give me some leniency, how about that?"
After saying that, he knelt down in front of Murong Qing with a thud.
He lowered his head deeply, as humble as he could be.
Seeing him like this, Ye Chuyao noticed sharply that a hint of satisfaction flashed in Lu Xu's eyes.
"This guy..."
Ye Chuyao frowned slightly.
She knew that Lu Xu would continue to use the chicken feathers as a token of authority and continue to embarrass Murong Qing.
Sure enough, her guess soon came true.
Lu Xu slowly stood up from his chair and walked a few steps to Murong Qing.
He stretched out his right foot, stepped heavily on Murong Qing's shoulder, and said indifferently:
"Let them off?"
"If I fail to complete the task assigned by the elders, even if I will be punished, who will show me mercy?"
"Be smart next time and do your work for the Holy Lord. Don't slack off, or the same thing will happen again."
"Okay, without further ado, bring the person up here."
"The Messenger will personally supervise you to kill those bloodlines."
"Otherwise, when we return to the Holy Land, the elders will definitely blame the envoy for his incompetence!"
Lu Xu's actions were seen by all officials of the Izumo Dynasty.
They all looked at Lu Xu with fire in their eyes.
Some people have even begun to unabashedly exude murderous intent.
"Your Majesty!"
"The Saint of Xisi has gone too far, why do you still have to compromise with them?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, let's rebel!"
"Your Majesty, with just your order, even if we are defeated, we will do our best to kill the Saint's minions."
“.......”
Angry rebukes came out of the mouths of these officials.
When they looked at Ye Chuyao and Lu Xu, their eyes were filled with hostility.
Seeing this scene, Lu Xu retracted his right foot and looked at the civil and military officials in the hall with cold eyes.
Then he sneered:
"Oh? Rebellion? You guys are really brave!"
After saying this, he casually slapped the people who were shouting the loudest.
At that moment, the space shattered, and a giant spiritual palm descended from the sky, covering the bodies of those people.
With a "puff", their bodies were instantly annihilated by the palm print and turned into minced meat.
At this moment, a low roar came out of Murong Qing's mouth: "Enough!"
His hunched body straightened slowly and he stood up from the bed.
He stared at Lu Xu with his red eyes: "Since the day I, Murong Qing, ascended the throne, I have never disobeyed any order from the Holy Lord."
"I will do my best to meet any request of Saint."
"But now, why are you being so aggressive and pushing us into a dead end?"
"Are our lives and dignity so worthless in your holy eyes?"
Murong Qing's body kept shaking, and he gritted his teeth.
Seeing this, Lu Xu frowned slightly.
He had a bad feeling in his heart, and he felt like today was a disaster.
Although he can exercise authority and influence here by virtue of his status as the Holy Messenger of the Holy Spirit.
But he seemed to be going too far.
What the elder said was completely false. He just wanted to show off his status and position and deliberately made things difficult for Murong Qing.
In previous years, the disciples of the Holy Spirit who came to collect tributes had done similar things many times.
But looking at it today, it seems that Murong Qing actually shows signs of resistance.
This is not good.
Ye Chuyao naturally noticed the change in his expression.
"Haha, do you feel like you messed up and have some regrets?"
"This imperial city is full of hidden talents. Even the Izumo royal family is not that simple."
"Interesting, interesting, Murong Qing, what will you do next?"
Ye Chuyao's divine consciousness is extremely strong, already comparable to that of a cultivator in the Divine Infant Realm.
She had previously explored the entire imperial city and discovered many interesting things.
......
Facing Murong Qing's questioning, Lu Xu's tone softened slightly: "This is not something I can do!"
"This is Elder 꺶's intention. Am I disobeying it?"
The harsh words have already been spoken, and asking him to take them back now would be a disservice to Lu Xu's reputation, wouldn't it?
Naturally, he was unwilling to do so, so he continued to talk nonsense under the banner of the elder of the Silk Saint.
After that, he added:
"Murong Qing, I know the punishment this time is a bit severe, but it is a fact that you did not complete the task."
"Try harder next time!"
After saying that, Lu Xu stretched out his right hand and patted Murong Qing on the shoulder encouragingly.
.......
"So... my royal bloodline must be killed?"
Murong Qing asked calmly with a sinister look in his eyes.
This look from him made Lu Xu feel very uncomfortable.
But he still gritted his teeth and said lightly: "Not bad!"
At this time, Ye Chuyao tried to smooth things over and said, "Brother Lu Xu, is there no other way to save him?"
"If we really kill the bloodline of the Izumo royal family, it would be too cruel!"
Lu Xu never thought that Ye Chuyao would ruin his plan at this time.
He glanced at Ye Chuyao with dissatisfaction, and whispered, "Junior Sister Mu, why are you bending your elbow?"
Hearing this, Ye Chuyao quickly responded: "Brother Lu, what are you talking about? I just don't want Shengdong to be completely at odds with the Izumo royal family."
"Before they get desperate!"
"A cornered dog will jump over the wall?"
"Haha, they have to do this."
The two communicated very quickly through voice transmission.
Hearing Ye Chuyao's words, Murong Qing looked at Lu Xu with a hint of hope on his face.
However, Lu Xu just said coldly: "There is no remedy!"
"If you make a mistake, you will be punished."
In his opinion, it was just a matter of killing a few bloodlines of the Izumo royal family. It was such a trivial matter no matter how angry Murong Qing was.
For the sake of the Izumo royal family, he definitely did not dare to act rashly.
However, he really miscalculated this time.
"Hey, if I try to lower my posture, you won't be so aggressive."
"What a pity! You keep seeking death. Shouldn't I help you?"
Suddenly, Murong Qing's expression changed, and a hint of mockery appeared in his eyes.
He took out a jade pendant from his arms and crushed it in front of Lu Xu and Ye Chuyao.
At that moment, an obscure wave spread towards a certain direction of the imperial palace.
Seeing this scene, Ye Chuyao's expression suddenly changed: "Senior Brother Lu!"
As she spoke, she began to move.
Lu Xu naturally found something unusual.
"Murong Qing, you!"
As he said that, he took a step forward and reached out to grab Murong Qing's neck.
Seeing this, there was no trace of fear in Murong Qing's eyes.
His eyes were extremely calm, with a hint of sarcasm in them.
"Huh? You're looking for death!"
Lu Xu was angry. He felt that Murong Qing was provoking him, so he increased the strength of his hands.
However, just when his palm was about to cover Murong Qing's neck.
A terrifying aura instantly shot out from the palace and blocked Murong Qing in an instant.
The next moment, Lu Xu felt a fierce aura rushing towards him.
Before he could react, he was hit hard in the chest by a strong force.
"Puff", Lu Xu instantly spurted out a mouthful of blood.
His body was thrown into the air like a torn sack and fell heavily on the wall of the hall.
“Crack~”
The solid wall was cracked into cracks.
Lu Xu struggled to get up and looked at the man who suddenly appeared with a shocked look.
It was a middle-aged man wearing black, tall and thin like a bamboo pole.
The aura of this person was cold and strong, and he was obviously a strong man in the Divine Pill Realm.
"You... who are you?"
"How dare you attack the Holy Messenger!"
Lu Xu wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice.
But he himself didn't realize that his voice was trembling because of fear.
"This person's aura is a little dark!"
"It is very similar to some of the demon cultivators in the cultivation world."
"Could he be from that Slaughtering Demon Sect?"
Ye Chuyao looked at the tall and thin man in black and muttered to himself.
Unlike Lu Xu's performance, Ye Chuyao didn't look nervous at all at this moment.
"Holy Messenger?"
"Damn holy shit!"
"Not to mention you, even if your holy elder came in person, I would still dare to take action."
A hint of disdain flashed across the thin middle-aged man's eyes.
Hearing this, Lu Xu seemed to suddenly think of something: "You...are you from the Slaughtering Demon Sect?"
"Oh, you are not stupid, you actually guessed this!"
"Corpse Demon Yin Jiuchong, have you heard of my name?"
As soon as these words came out, Lu Xu's previous arrogance completely disappeared.
His face turned pale instantly.
"Demon Corpse Yin Jiuchong? It's you?"
The Four Saints and the Slaughtering Demon Sect had been fighting for so long, so naturally they had some understanding of each other.
As far as Lu Xu knew, at least five or six fourth-level Saint God Pill Realm warriors had their lives taken in Yin Jiuzhong's hands.
Now he appears here...
Lu Xu suddenly turned around and looked at Murong Qing: "How dare you collude with the Demon Sect? Aren't you afraid that I, the Saint of Xisi, will settle accounts with you later?"
Hearing this, Murong Qing smiled coldly: "I don't want to be an enemy of you saints, but you are bullying me too much."
"In front of you saints, we are so humble that we are not even as good as dogs."
"Today, because of a trivial matter, you actually want to bury my royal bloodline with you."
"Even rabbits bite when they are cornered. You have forced our Izumo royal family to this point. If we don't resist, how can we survive in this world?"
When saying these words, Murong Qing felt very comfortable.
The frustration that had been pent up for a long time was completely released with these few words.
At this moment, Yin Jiuzhong turned his head and looked at Murong Qing: "My Slaughter Heaven Demon Sect will definitely not be as unkind as these shitty saints."
"As long as you, the Izumo royal family, work for our Demon Sect, we will not only protect you, but also help you deal with people you don't like."
"Like that guy!"
As he spoke, Yin Jiuzhong cast a cold gaze towards Lu Xu.
Under such gaze, Lu Xu's body began to tremble.
