Chapter 270 Shaken
“Your Majesty!!”
The eight guards were instantly terrified, but it was too late for them to move and they could only roar in despair.
But within Li Qing's pupils, which had shrunk into a dot, there was a hint of a smile.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly.
"boom!"
The tip of the three-pointed, double-edged sword suddenly pierced Li Qing's eyebrows!
But at this moment, the center of Li Qing's eyebrows turned into the skin of the Golden Immortal, which was thousands of times harder than the Nine Heavens Mysterious Iron!
Just a loud bang!
The air waves rolled, and the huge shock wave made the guards around retreat several steps.
Wang Youzhi screamed miserably and was knocked more than ten meters away.
After all, he is only at the level of a celestial being, how could he withstand such a powerful impact?
Li Qing still stood there calmly with his hands behind his back.
There wasn't even a hint of change between his eyebrows.
However, the three-pointed, two-edged sword suddenly burst out with a golden flame, and the recoil force directly caused the three-pointed, two-edged sword to be thrown back!
The golden light that came to assassinate Li Qing absorbed the recoil force and retreated immediately!
“Boom boom boom!”
The ground shook three or four times, and the golden light retreated four or five steps before it completely stabilized its body.
The light faded.
But then he saw a man in silver armor glaring at Li Qing!
This man in silver armor was of handsome appearance, and his height was almost the same as Li Qing's. He had a well-proportioned body, was tall and mighty, and had a handsome appearance. He held a three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand, and a golden line flickered between his eyebrows.
However, Li Qing looked at the person in front of him, and a smile spread across his lips.
Name: Yang Jian
Identity: A third-generation disciple of the Chan Sect, nephew of the Jade Emperor, and son of Fairy Yunhua.
Strength: Daluo Jinxian (Level 4)
Magical weapons: three-pointed double-edged sword, silver Tiandu armor, Wanli Godspeed boots, sky-shooting golden bow, Xuandu mountain-splitting axe, Tai'a demon-slaying sword, demon-binding rope, mountain-driving whip, and the Heavenly Demon Roaring Seal...

Immortal level evaluation: superior (level 4).
Isn't this person before him the renowned Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun, known throughout the Three Realms and Six Paths, the Erlang Shen, Yang Jian, who achieved the Hunyuan Dao Fruit in his physical body and attained the status of a Quasi-Sage?!
"Who are you? Why did you assassinate me?"
Li Qing naturally saw through Yang Jian's identity at a glance, but did not point it out. Instead, he asked calmly.
"Heaven is so unfair! A tyrant emperor actually has such divine protection! No wonder my master told me not to touch you for now! It turns out that I can't touch you! Hateful!"
Yang Jian shouted angrily, his face full of indignation.
Li Qing raised his eyebrows and said slowly, "I asked you who you are, didn't you hear me?"
Yang Jian immediately sneered, "I am a righteous man! I uphold justice on behalf of Heaven! I am here to kill you, the tyrant and evil ruler!"
"Catch this thief! Catch him!!"
At this moment, Wang Youzhi's scream suddenly came from a distance.
Wang Youzhi was seen with his body in tatters and blood at the corner of his mouth. He was screaming loudly as he hurriedly got up.
At that moment, the eight guards came to their senses, shouted loudly, and rushed forward to capture him.
Although these eight people have reached the great perfection of the late Golden Immortal stage, if they work together, an ordinary mid-stage Golden Immortal may not be their match.
However, Li Qing calmly raised his hand and said, "Step back."
After saying this, he looked at Yang Jian and said, "You say I am a tyrant? You want to kill me? Do you have any evidence?"
"evidence?"
Upon hearing this, Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then shouted, "You are dissolute and cruel, ignoring state affairs, disregarding the suffering of the people, and arbitrarily killing ministers! Aren't these all evidence!?"
"Oh? How have I ever been licentious and cruel? When have I ever neglected the affairs of state? How have I ever been indifferent to the suffering of the people? Come, come, tell me what has happened."
Li Qing sneered, shook his head slightly, and asked Yang Jian again.
"you……"
After being asked this question, Yang Jian was completely stunned for a moment.
It seems that all the atrocities committed by Emperor Xin were told to him by his master and others, but he himself had never seen them!
Seeing this, Li Qing said calmly, "You thief, you are so stupid. You just listen to whatever others say. And in the end, you put on a righteous look and come here to enforce justice!? Idiot! You do bad things for bad people and you feel justified in doing so!"
Yang Jian stood there for a moment, not knowing what to say.
Li Qing said calmly, "If I were a tyrant, you would have been dead by now. Be a reasonable person! Go and see! Go and ask! Then you can decide whether I am a tyrant or not!"
After saying that, Li Qing said calmly: "Let this idiot leave."
Yang Jian stood there, frowning and saying nothing.
But Li Qing slowly brushed past him and walked away, muttering to himself, "Why are there always so many idiots in the world who are taken advantage of without knowing it? It's sad, so sad..."
"Damn you! Your Majesty is so kindhearted! I'm sparing you! Why don't you get out of here! You're an assassin who deserves the death of your entire clan, yet His Majesty spared you. How can His Majesty be tyrannical? Your Majesty governs state affairs day and night! How can He not care about government? It's because there are too many idiots like you! So self-righteous! You're being used by those treacherous officials! That's why the world is in turmoil! Damn you! Why don't you get out of here!?"
But Wang Youzhi was angrily brushing off the dust and weeds on his body, and rushed to Yang Jian, screaming and shouting.
Yang Jian glanced at him but said nothing.
Wang Youzhi wanted to cut the assassin into pieces and chop him into meat sauce, but since His Majesty said not to kill him and let him go, he had no choice but to let him go.
But he really didn't understand why His Majesty let such a traitor leave.
After spitting, Wang Youzhi shrieked, "Let this bastard assassin leave! And all of you, get two hundred lashes each!"
After shouting, Wang Youzhi hurriedly chased after Li Qing again.
"promise!"
The eight Golden Immortal guards suddenly roared!
They also had sweat on their foreheads! The lingering fear still lingered!
If the king was really assassinated by this guy, they would have no need to live!
For a moment, all eight of them glared at Yang Jian, mocking him at the same time: "A fool like you, you still think you are acting on behalf of Heaven? You come to assassinate His Majesty? It's ridiculous! Follow us! Otherwise, His Majesty will change his mind and kill you, a dog who refuses to surrender!"
Yang Jian frowned slightly, but did not retort. Instead, he followed the eight people out of the palace.
Of course, if he left on his own, he could still get out.
With his Eight-Nine Profound Arts combined with the Seventy-Two Earthly Transformations, even his own master could not see through what he had transformed into, so it was easy for him to sneak in and out of the palace.
But today, the belief in the assassination of the Human Emperor was refuted by the Human Emperor, and his belief was somewhat shaken!
His idea, which had been instilled in him by Jade Ding Zhenren for many years that the Human Emperor was unjust, tyrannical and licentious and must be killed to enforce justice, was shaken!
"Let's go back first and investigate carefully..."
Yang Jian thought to himself, exhaled, raised the three-pointed, double-edged sword in his hand, and quickly walked away.
