At Tinghua Palace, all the people from the fifth stronghold have arrived.
There were three "elders" from the Elder Council, "Consort Zhang" from the Night Court Palace, and "First Lady" from the Phoenix West Palace!
An old swordsman with a long sword on his back and a blank expression.
Poison Valley, dozens of skilled fighters from Konoha Village, including black-clad samurai carrying long swords.
At this moment, everyone frowned, and their expressions were not good.
A fierce battle broke out in the palace, and even a master like the Grand Elder was smashed to pieces by the opponent.
This shows just how terrifying the opponent's strength is.
However, no one knows who these people are or what their purpose is.
"Could it be a political enemy of the Zhu family?"
"A comeback?" the Second Elder thought for a moment and said.
"Probably not!" the Third Elder said. "Before we entered the Dragon Kingdom, we thoroughly investigated the royal family. The Zhu family's regime was passed down from Zhu Taizu. How could they have any political enemies?"
"Even if there were political enemies, they were all eliminated a hundred years ago!"
"How could there possibly be descendants?"
"If they aren't political enemies, then who are they?"
"Could it be that they're coming for us?" the Fourth Elder said.
"Our identities are only known to the people at the base."
“It’s impossible for it to be leaked, it shouldn’t be,” said Consort Zhang.
"No need to guess anymore."
"Let's talk about it when Lord Tianjing returns!"
"No matter who they are or what their purpose is!"
"If anyone dares to cause trouble in the palace, we'll wipe them out!"
"After years of lurking, we finally managed to take control of the Dragon Kingdom's head of state!"
"This grand game is about to come to an end!"
“We cannot let these people ruin our achievements!” said the First Lady.
"Yes." Everyone nodded.
"Bang." At this moment, the palace gate was kicked open, and a burly man in a suit walked in.
Behind him were two beautiful young women and a fat, big-eared monk.
Who are you?
"How dare you trespass into Tinghua Palace!" Everyone immediately turned around and looked at Chen Tiansheng.
"Aren't you all eager to know the identities of the group that broke into the palace at night?"
“It’s us,” Chen Tiansheng said with a sneer.
"You guys?" Everyone was taken aback.
“That’s right.” Chen Tiansheng nodded.
"As for the goal!"
"It's definitely you!"
"A group of Chinese people disguised as royalty!"
These words immediately caused everyone's expression to change.
"You little beast, do you know the consequences of speaking nonsense?" Consort Zhang scolded.
"Heh, nonsense?"
"Who exactly is spouting nonsense?"
"Little Lian Yui!!" Chen Tiansheng sneered, looking at her as he spoke.
"You, you, you..." Upon hearing him reveal his real name, "Consort Zhang" immediately felt guilty and began to stammer.
"She is Consort Zhang!"
“It’s not some little pity, don’t talk nonsense.” The “First Lady” stood up and said.
"Even now, you still refuse to admit it. You really have the audacity to do that!"
"Take a look at this!"
"Swish." Chen Tiansheng tossed out a document.
The First Lady gave a wink to a warrior, who understood, walked over, picked it up, and his expression changed drastically. He quickly turned back and handed it to her.
"These are the cipher files for the fifth stronghold. How did they end up in his hands?"
"Could the base have been compromised?!" After reading it, the "First Lady" shuddered and her face changed color.
“Let me see,” said the Second Elder.
“Hmm.” The First Lady handed him the documents.
"This is indeed our password file!"
"That's enough to prove the base has been compromised!" He shook his head after reading it.
"Where did you get these documents?" the First Lady asked, looking at Chen Tiansheng.
"Chen Lie is there!" Chen Tiansheng said calmly.
"I'll kill him, and I'll get it!"
"You killed Shen Lie?" Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.
“That’s right.” Chen Tiansheng nodded.
"I obtained this document by accident!"
"Does this also prove that the Dragon Kingdom's fortune is currently at its peak?"
"You tiny, insignificant country can't possibly destroy us!"
"After years of lying low, it was all for naught!"
"Even if you know about the fifth stronghold, so what?"
"You few people can overturn our plans."
"That's a dream!"
"After I kill you all."
"Our plan will proceed as scheduled!" said the Third Elder.
"You guys overestimate yourselves!"
"Since we've come to the palace, we have nothing to fear!"
"Tonight, the Fifth Outpost will cease to exist!"
"This palace will be your final resting place," Chen Tiansheng sneered.
"What an arrogant brat! Kill him!" The Third Elder roared in anger, waving his hand as he spoke.
"Kill!" The group of warriors drew their long swords and charged towards the door.
"Have you finished counting the number of people?"
"Is the quantity correct?" Chen Tiansheng asked Shi Jing in a low voice.
"All counted, 157 people, matches up!" Shi Jing said.
"Okay, I'll leave it to you!" Chen Tiansheng stepped aside, took out a cigarette, lit it, and leisurely started smoking.
"Senior sister, let me go first!" Shi Jing said to Zhong Ling.
"Mm." Zhong Ling nodded.
Shi Jing took a step forward and threw a punch. A loud explosion rang out, and the rushing warriors immediately turned into clouds of blood mist that spread outwards.
"Boom!" Two more punches were thrown, and all the warriors disappeared, leaving only wisps of blood mist that spread rapidly.
"She wiped out all the warriors with just three punches. This woman's strength is truly astounding!" This scene shocked everyone.
"I'll go kill her." Consort Zhang tore off her palace robes, revealing a tight black dress underneath. She pulled at her waist, and with a clang, a chain knife appeared in her hand. She swung it fiercely, the chain knife whistling as it slashed towards Shi Jing.
"This is a weapon from the Sickle Clan. Judging from your skill in wielding the blade, you are quite adept."
"You must have been immersing yourself in this weapon for many years!" Shi Jing grabbed the tip of the knife and pulled sharply, dragging "Consort Zhang" over. "Want to kill me? That's far from enough!"
With a thud, "Consort Zhang's" head exploded, and she collapsed limply to the ground, twitching for a moment before falling still.
"Another palm strike, and Xiao Lian is dead!!" This scene shocked everyone once again.
"Poison them!" the First Lady commanded, waving her hand.
"Swish, swish, swish!" A group of maids waved their hands, and countless flower petals flew over, along with a faint fragrance.
Golden light emanated from Shi Jing's body, piercing the flying petals and sending them crashing to the ground.
The fragrance was repelled by the golden light, unable to get close.
"Pfft!" With a flick of his finger, a burst of energy swept out, instantly cutting several maids in half at the waist, leaving them dead on the ground.
