Chen Siling's golden core has been shattered by Xiu Qiyu. In a short period of time, Chen Siling has gone from being the high-ranking fifth prince and a genius of the sect to a cripple.
The other Qingyun Sect disciples and Chen Siling's entourage huddled inside the flying spirit ship. They had tried everything but couldn't leave. That swordsman was simply too powerful; they were trapped within his domain and had no way to escape.
Chen Siling must have been seriously injured and collapsed, yet no one dared to help him. It was obvious that the other party's target was Chen Siling; they were implicated because of him.
Liu Tiesheng, sword in his left hand, charged toward Chen Siling.
Do you know how I've gotten through the past six months?
"How does it feel to be severely injured, powerless, and completely at the mercy of others?"
"Did you ever imagine you'd end up like this?"
Liu Tiesheng spoke calmly, but his trembling hands betrayed his inner tension.
Chen Siling coughed up a mouthful of blood: "A stray dog, it's just relying on other people's strength, what's there to be proud of or proud of?"
"I've never thought there's anything wrong with killing an ant?"
"My biggest mistake in life was not killing you." This statement couldn't be more sincere.
“I am indeed a piece of trash, but you are about to die at the hands of this piece of trash. Do you feel aggrieved and sad? The great land of Rui Kingdom will belong to the Second Prince, and the woman you hate and despise will become the Empress Dowager of the Great Rui Kingdom. Do you feel unwilling?” Liu Tiesheng wanted to make Chen Siling suffer and die in pain.
"you--"
Liu Tiesheng's sword stabbed Chen Siling again and again, and soon wounds appeared all over Chen Siling's body, with blood gushing out and staining his robes red.
Liu Tiesheng's inner turmoil was far from being expressed: "Do you know what it means to be worse than dead, to wish you were dead the moment you open your eyes every day?" Liu Tiesheng's voice was piercingly cold, and there were faint blood vessels flowing in his dark eyes.
"You piece of trash, why are you still alive?" Chen Siling's eyes were filled with resentment. Today should have been the biggest turning point in his life, from which he would rise to great heights and no one would be able to stop him. Unexpectedly, he was defeated by this nobody. The resentment in his heart was unimaginable.
"What do you want to do with the people inside?"
"Kill them all!" Liu Tiesheng turned to Chen Siling and said, "You must remember clearly that they all died for you."
Chen Siling has lost all ability to resist and lies on the grass covered in blood.
Liu Tiesheng took out a brown pill and stuffed it directly into his mouth: "Enjoy the last moments of your life." After saying that, he returned to Xiu Qiyu's side.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
"The person you should really thank is Xiao Yezi."
"I understand, I will try my best to become stronger." He is not yet qualified to stand beside the dazzling Ye Xiruo.
"It's good that you understand."
"What did you feed me?" Chen Siling's painful screams were extremely chilling.
"Corpse-dissolving pill." Liu Tiesheng's tone was calm, but it made everyone in the flying boat turn pale with fright.
After consuming the Corpse-Dissolving Pill, one's entire body will be completely corroded from the inside out, leaving only a pool of blood. Just thinking about this process is bloody and terrifying; how could there be such an evil person?
In their eyes, Xiu Qiyu and Liu Tiesheng had become man-eating demons.
The flying magical artifacts flew aimlessly through the air like headless flies, but they could never break through Xiu Qiyu's barrier. The moment they entered the barrier, their fate was sealed. To die under the barrage of ten thousand swords was their honor.
Liu Tiesheng didn't care much about these people's lives. Chen Siling kept screaming and rolling on the ground, his body was melting away. This horrific scene made many people on the spaceship vomit.
Chen Siling completely melted away, and the patch of grass beneath him was directly corroded by the blood. Liu Tiesheng looked at the patch of grass with a mixture of confusion and relief in his expression. The greatest enemy who had caused him such misfortune, the enemy who had been so powerful and almost impossible to resist, had died right before his eyes.
The flying spirit ship and everyone inside were reduced to ashes by Xiu Qiyu's barrage of ten thousand swords. This was the first time Liu Tiesheng had ever witnessed such an attack. After learning that Xiu Qiyu had only used twenty percent of his power, the shock on Liu Tiesheng's face was almost impossible to conceal.
"Senior Brother, is it possible for me to unleash such an attack in this lifetime?" He hoped to become strong, strong enough not to be bullied by others, strong enough to protect his family, strong enough to protect Xiao Yezi.
“Since you are someone Xiao Yezi cares about, you will surely reach a higher level. This is just the first step. You should believe in yourself and believe in Xiao Yezi.”
After hearing Xiu Qiyu's words, Liu Tiesheng suddenly felt a surge of strong will. The frustration, self-blame, and guilt on his face disappeared, leaving only confidence and determination.
The fact that your son's death allowed Liu Tiesheng to regain his spirits can be considered a fitting end.
"Alright, let's get out of here."
“Let’s go to the capital and wait for Xiao Liu to finish his business before we go back to Liu Family Village together.”
At Xiu Qiyu's speed, the two arrived at the bustling capital in half an hour. After disguising himself, Xiu Qiyu became a warrior, carrying a large sword on his back, with a cold expression and a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. Liu Tiesheng became Xiu Qiyu's companion, and the two entered the capital.
Everywhere you look, people are singing and dancing, celebrating the emperor's birthday and the successful completion of the sacrificial ceremony to Heaven.
May Heaven bless the Great Auspiciousness, may Heaven bless our Emperor.
After walking for a while, Liu Tiesheng gradually relaxed. He and Xiu Qiyu arrived at a teahouse. All drinks were free today. The two ordered a few dishes and ate while observing the people around them.
News from the palace had long been tightly controlled; only through the dazzling golden light did they learn that the sacrificial ceremony to Heaven had been successfully completed. The Emperor's birthday banquet was estimated to last another three hours.
The most exciting part of the year is the princes' congratulatory gifts. In previous years, Chen Siling has always come out on top, greatly pleasing the emperor. Add to that the infighting between the Second Prince's faction and the Fifth Prince's faction, and the process can't be shortened even if one wanted to.
With the Fifth Prince absent this year, the focus of this segment is solely on Little Yezi. With the Longevity Pill now available, it would be strange if the Emperor could still sit comfortably on his throne, listening to his ministers offer their congratulations.
Therefore, Xiao Yezi will likely be kept by the emperor, and whether his intentions are good or bad, it will determine the future of the entire Great Rui.
