"Of the twelve martial artists I killed back then, one of them was also proficient in Leaf-Shaped Fist!"
"Who are you to him?" Long Yuan asked again.
"I am his master!" The old man's face twisted, revealing a trace of pain.
"He was my only successor, and I never expected that you would kill him!"
"At that time, I was cultivating in seclusion; otherwise, the battle would have been turned around, and you would have been the ones to die."
"He's actually from an enemy country?" The conversation between the two startled Shi Jing and Zhong Ling.
"It wasn't just him, the other three were too."
"The four real elders are all dead!"
"They're just in disguise!" Chen Tiansheng said calmly.
"They are very powerful, you must be careful," Consort Qin said.
"Judging from this, Long Yuan might not be his match!"
“I’ll go kill him,” Shi Jing said.
"Mm." Chen Tiansheng nodded.
"No wonder you still wanted to kill General Long and General Qi Xue even after they revealed their identities!"
"So, you were an imposter."
"We almost got scammed!!"
"Yang Wu, Zhang Tianming, Liu Che."
"Let's all attack together and kill him!" Zhang Chuang got up from the ground, drew his sword from his waist, pointed it at the old man, and roared.
The deputy commanders were all terrified and dared not step forward.
After all, they had already witnessed the old man's strength.
With a single punch, he sent the Azure Dragon Rider flying, and even Long Yuan was knocked back.
If they go up there, aren't they just asking for death?
Although the appearance of the Azure Dragon Riders shocked them greatly.
But the old man's strength made them hesitant to take sides.
"Apart from the Imperial Guards, everyone else in this palace is ours!"
"If you still don't wake up!"
"At that time, they will be executed one by one by slow slicing!" the old man said with a sneer.
"Submit to us!"
"I guarantee you'll be safe!"
"I am willing to surrender!" Yang Wu threw down his weapon and knelt on the ground.
"I am willing to surrender!" Zhang Tianming threw down his weapon and knelt on the ground.
"I am willing to surrender!!" Liu Che threw down his weapon and knelt on the ground.
"We are willing to surrender!" All the Imperial Guards knelt on the ground.
"You bunch of bastards, have you forgotten what country you're from?"
Have we forgotten how our ancestors fought and bled to win this vast land?
"Have you forgotten the oath you took under that national flag?"
"To surrender to spies from an enemy country is a disgrace to this armor and to our ancestors!" Zhang Chuang roared.
"Your bones are still quite strong."
“But such people often die a terrible death!” the elder sneered.
"I'll kill you!" Zhang Chuang charged forward, sword in hand.
"It seems there are still loyal and righteous people within this palace!"
"I was a bit inconsiderate!"
"Stop them," Chen Tiansheng said.
"Yes." Shi Jing grabbed out, but in the next moment, Zhang Chuang's body was smashed into pieces by a palm strike and scattered on the ground.
Chen Tiansheng closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
“Chop this old bastard into pieces and offer them as a sacrifice to General Zhang’s spirit in heaven.”
"Kill all those spineless cowards kneeling on the ground!"
"Leave not a single inch of the body behind!!"
"Yes." Shi Jing swayed and lunged towards the Grand Elder.
Zhong Ling then walked towards the group of imperial guards.
"You bunch of bastards, you've disgraced the Chinese people!"
"You have disgraced your parents and your ancestors!"
"They actually knelt and surrendered to a spy from an enemy country!"
"This is utterly disappointing!"
You don't deserve to be called human beings!
"You only deserve to be a dog!!" she shouted angrily.
"Kill her!!" Yang Wu and the others roared in fury, grabbed their weapons from the ground, and charged forward.
The imperial guards behind them also picked up their weapons and rushed over.
Zhong Ling waved her hand, and a wisp of smoke quickly spread.
"Ah!" Yang Wu and the others who rushed forward had their faces rapidly melt away and disappear, and in the end even their heads were gone.
In the end, only a suit of armor remained, lying on the ground, its hat rolling far away.
"That's poisonous fog! Once it touches you, your skin and flesh will melt away instantly!" This sight shocked the Imperial Guards behind them, who quickly retreated.
But by then, the smoke had completely enveloped them.
"Clang! Clang! Clang!!" Amidst the surging waves of mist, suits of armor and weapons crashed to the ground and scattered.
"What kind of poison is this? It's incredibly potent!" Upon seeing this scene, Xumi, standing behind Zhong Ling, couldn't help but change color.
“Bone-dissolving powder!!” Zhong Ling said calmly.
"It's best not to use this thing carelessly!"
"Otherwise, we might accidentally injure friendly forces," Xumi said, wiping away a bead of cold sweat.
“You’ve mastered the Golden Body, what are you afraid of?” Zhong Ling asked.
“Even a golden statue is susceptible to corrosion!” Sumeru said.
“That’s true.” Zhong Ling nodded.
"Boom boom boom!!" In the distance, golden and green beams of light intertwined as Shi Jing and the Grand Elder exchanged three blows.
"An eight-star expert."
“They do have some strength,” Shi Jing nodded and said.
"You can sense my cultivation level?" the old man asked, taken aback.
“Of course,” Shi Jing nodded.
"You are also the first eight-star powerhouse I have ever encountered!"
"It's definitely much stronger than Seven Stars!"
"However, the fourth palm strike!"
"I will use 80% of my strength."
"Sending you on your way!!"
Shi Jing let out a low shout, and golden light shone brightly from his palm once more, with countless tiny runes appearing densely.
As the number of runes increases, the power in the palm also grows stronger.
Long Yuan's expression changed, and he retreated rapidly. Wherever his palm strike touched, everything in his path turned to dust.
"Such powerful palm strike!" This scene startled the old man, who turned around and tried to escape.
"You can't escape!" Shi Jing grabbed with his five fingers, and five chains of energy appeared, wrapping around his waist and pulling him back. He then slammed out his right palm, and a palm shadow as if made of gold struck him solidly.
A muffled thud was heard, and his entire body was smashed into pieces, scattered all over the ground.
"The strength of a Moon-level cultivator is truly formidable."
"He killed the enemy spy with a single palm strike!" This scene immediately widened the eyes of Qi Xue and the others.
"Finally dead!" Long Yuan breathed a sigh of relief and said.
Chen Tiansheng walked up to Zhang Chuang's dismembered body and sighed softly.
"The enemy spy who killed the general is dead!"
"May the general's spirit rest in peace!"
"General, may your spirit rest in peace!" Shi Jing and the others approached, bowed deeply, and said.
"Dig a hole and bury the body parts!" Chen Tiansheng said after the ritual was completed.
Long Yuan threw a punch, and a deep pit immediately appeared on the ground. Qi Xue and the others picked up the body parts and put them into the pit along with the armor fragments, and then buried them with soil.
"Go to Donghua Palace." Chen Tiansheng waved his hand, turned around, and left!
