"..."
All the civil and military officials stared at Murong Qing with shocked expressions.
Did His Majesty really die at her hands ten years ago?
They thought about it carefully. Since ascending the throne, Emperor Li Chengfeng of Yan had always been diligent in governing the country, caring for the people, and working hard to improve the situation.
Even if he obtained the demonic power, given Emperor Li Chengfeng's personality, it's unlikely he would cultivate it, much less be so heartless as to use the people of Yan to cultivate it.
In the past ten years, at least a million people from the Yan Kingdom have disappeared without a trace.
"clever."
Murong Qing said with a sigh, "He is too foolish. I only wanted him to provide for my cultivation with the people of Yan."
He was unwilling.
I have no choice but to send him on his way.
In order to stabilize the Yan Kingdom, a continuous supply of Yan people will be provided to this palace.
"I could only find him a reason to go into seclusion and cultivate, so as not to affect my cultivation."
All the civil and military officials in the court felt their scalps tingle. To have a million Yan people cultivate like this, what kind of terrifying demon was this? Even the witch was too kind.
"You're at the Nascent Soul Realm?"
Li Jing suddenly said.
"It's the Nascent Soul Realm, the peak of the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm. It will soon be able to step into the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm."
Upon hearing this, Murong Qingqian nodded slightly and advised Li Jing, "Do you want to know my strength?"
I want to see if you have the ability to kill me.
If that's your idea, I advise you to give it up.
I do not wish to kill a genius as extraordinary as you so easily.
I can lead you into my Blood Demon Sect.
To become the protector of this palace.
I will impart to you the Blood Demon Sect's Guardian Divine Skill. With your talent and aptitude, reaching the Nascent Soul Realm will be no difficulty for you.
Given time, even reaching the Nascent Soul Realm is not impossible.
The entire court of civil and military officials felt a sense of despair. The Nascent Soul Realm!
Murong Qing was actually a Nascent Soul Realm expert. Even in the Xuan Tian Sect, which was above Yan Kingdom, a Nascent Soul Realm expert was enough to become an elder.
Is such a being something Li Jing can handle?
If Li Jing dies, their chances of survival are slim.
For a time, all the civil and military officials of Yan had the idea of getting Li Jing to agree to become the emperor of Yan and serve Murong Qing.
At least this way, they might not have to die.
"Peak of the first level of the Nascent Soul Realm?"
"With such a low level of cultivation, you think you can recruit me?"
Li Jing smiled calmly and said.
"Why do you have to seek your own death!"
Murong Qing stared at Li Jing with murderous intent in her eyes and said.
"The one who's courting death isn't me, it's you."
Li Jing said calmly.
boom!
An incredibly terrifying aura erupted from Li Jing!
This aura was more than ten times stronger than the aura he had displayed when he killed Su Yu, the Grand Commander of the Imperial City Guard of Yan Kingdom!
"Impossible! How could a prince from a small place like Yan Kingdom possibly forge such an astonishing golden elixir!"
"A first-grade golden core! Your golden core is definitely a legendary first-grade golden core..."
Murong Qing sensed the aura emanating from Li Jing, her expression changed slightly, and she exclaimed in disbelief.
In the Burial Grounds of Immortals, the First-Grade Golden Elixir is truly a legend.
Even among the nine holy lands, no one has been able to forge a first-grade golden core.
The highest grade is the second-grade Golden Elixir!
Li Jing looked at Murong Qing with an indifferent gaze, and the aura emanating from him was already faintly comparable to that of Murong Qing.
Although he was only at the first level of the Golden Core Realm, it is reasonable for him to have reached the Nascent Soul Realm, which is comparable to Murong Qing, who at most had only forged a third-grade Golden Core, with his Saint-grade Golden Core.
True geniuses are beyond Murong Qing's comprehension.
"So, this is what you're relying on?"
Murong Qing's expression turned serious, and he said with a chilling murderous aura, "However, that's not enough!"
"I'll show you my true power!"
"And now!"
Li Jing shook his head and said.
An astonishing sword intent erupted from his body.
This sword intent seemed to envelop the entire world, causing it to feel fragmented and as if it were about to grind everything into dust.
"Sword intent..."
"How could you possibly comprehend sword intent..."
"This is something that a mere Golden Core cultivator could not possibly comprehend!"
Who exactly are you?
Murong Qing's noble demeanor vanished completely. Her face twisted as she stared at Li Jing, utterly disbelieving that it was real.
A Golden Core cultivator who had just reached the first level of the Golden Core realm had comprehended the sword intent.
This is something that has never happened before in the entire Burial Ground of Immortals!
"cut!"
Li Jing spoke in a deep and powerful voice.
Buzz!
An astonishing sword intent, under the power of Li Jing's golden core, condensed into an unparalleled divine sword, which slashed down towards Murong Qing.
"No, you can't kill me! I am the Holy Maiden of the Blood Demon Sect! If you dare to kill me, the Blood Demon Sect will never let you go..."
Upon sensing Li Jing's sword strike, Murong Qing revealed a look of terror and cried out in utter horror.
However, before she could finish speaking, the sword had already struck down.
Murong Qing was instantly cleaved in two by this sword strike, leaving not even a trace of his limbs.
