Chapter 225: Four-sided Star Region, Jiang Ruxian hinders his good deeds, the background of the clan mansion
This chaos came to an end quickly, without any surprises, the Prince of Chong'an was captured, and in the void, dragon-locking chains emerged, tying him up from head to toe.
Finally, Emperor Xia raised his hand, and he fell heavily into the hall. There was still shock and disbelief in his eyes. Finally, when he looked at the Dragon Protection Order that flew into Emperor Xia's hands, his eyes were even more miserable.
A moment later, there was another flash of light in the hall, and Prime Minister Jiang Lintian appeared again, holding in his hand an old man with a hunched body, an old face, and dressed in luxurious robes.
The old man's cultivation was obviously blocked, and his eyes were full of anger and disbelief.
One minister noticed the five-clawed golden dragon embroidered on his collar and couldn't help but tremble all over, even more frightened.
Prince Chong'an looked at the old royal ancestor who walked out of Hulong Mountain, opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but when the words came to his lips, they turned into bitterness.
Even Jiang Lintian dared to attack him. It was obviously a pipe dream to use Hulong Mountain to intimidate the Prime Minister's Mansion at this time.
He greatly underestimated the determination and ruthlessness of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Looking at the old man who was casually thrown into the hall by Prime Minister Jiang Lintian, all the ministers were intimidated and shut up, trembling with fear and not daring to say more.
Some veterans of the two dynasties recognized this person's identity with their pupils trembling, but they did not dare to acknowledge him. They could only lower their heads and pretend not to know.
"Prince Chong'an has colluded with the Blood Immortal Sect and joined forces with Dongyuan Prefecture. This person is from the Ancient Moon Worshiping Sect of Dongyuan Prefecture and has been hiding in the palace. I'm afraid he wants to assassinate Your Majesty. I have already sealed his cultivation and will take him to the Heavenly Prison along with Prince Chong'an, awaiting Your Majesty's decision."
Jiang Lintian spoke lightly, his words were casual but full of dominance.
At this time, Queen Xia also clearly recognized the identity of this old imperial ancestor. When she was young, she had seen his portrait in the imperial ancestor's temple in the clan temple.
She glanced at Jiang Lan, and saw that Jiang Lan smiled at her and nodded slightly. She felt relieved and said with a frosty face, "Come here, take this Prince Chong'an and the assassin away and lock them up in the Jiantian Division to await punishment."
A group of golden-armored guards who had been waiting in the hall for a long time rushed up upon hearing the words, and then escorted the Prince Chong'an, who had a tragic look on his face, and the old imperial ancestor away.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the ministers who had been following Prince Chong'an just now could not help but kneel down in fear and kowtow, begging for mercy.
But Emperor Xia had already seen through their nature, and naturally had no intention of letting them go. With a wave of his jade hand, several more guards in golden armor came forward and escorted them all away.
Everything just happened so fast that many ministers thought that Emperor Xia would be impeached today. However, with his thundering measures, everything was quickly suppressed. Of course, they also knew that the Prime Minister's Mansion must have been behind this with its instigation and help.
We are all smart people. Regardless of the authenticity of the Dragon Protection Order, the old royal ancestor is the legitimate royal ancestor of Daxia and comes from the Dragon Protection Mountain.
This series of actions by Emperor Xia clearly showed that he had broken away from Hulong Mountain.
Hulong Mountain holds an extraordinary status in the Great Xia Dynasty, and controls the rise and fall of the country and the changes in the stars. I am afraid that Emperor Xia’s situation will become even more difficult in the future.
"Prince Chong'an is too anxious..."
"It's good to be a royal relative, isn't it? Why do you have to stand out and be the first to do so? Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Xiangguo Mansion is powerful and has long caused dissatisfaction among Hulongshan. Perhaps this is a test from Hulongshan."
"Hulong Mountain only sent an old royal ancestor, which clearly shows that they do not intend to fight to the death with the Xiangguo Mansion."
Some veteran officials had sharp eyes and analyzed a series of problems, secretly shaking their heads in their hearts.
But no matter what, the Prince of Chong'an was defeated today, but I don't know what the other Taoist holy places that helped him will do next? The other remnants probably won't be content with this.
This morning court session did not end there, in order to thoroughly investigate the collusion between Prince Chong'an and the Blood Immortal Sect and the cooperation between the Dongyuanzhou Holy Land Taoist Sect.
Many ministers in the hall were detained, and a leader from the Heavenly Supervision Department would go to their residences for a thorough investigation later.
Jiang Lan carried Chong Xiuyuan and then disappeared into the hall.
In the side hall, the golden lamps were bright, the sandalwood incense was curling in the incense burner, Chong Xiuyuan's face was pale, and he completely denied everything.
"I don't like to beat around the bush. I know that forces from outside the domain have already found you. Your father, Prince Chong'an, is a reckless man with courage but no strategy. If you hadn't given him advice behind the scenes, he wouldn't have dared to act so quickly." Jiang Lan said casually, with his hands behind his back and his back to Chong Xiuyuan.
Chong Xiuyuan's face turned pale, and there was an obvious deep fear in his eyes when he looked at Jiang Lan.
"How on earth do you know that?"
"Do you think you have any secrets in front of me? The reason why I spared your life and didn't kill you directly in the hall is actually to give you a chance to redeem yourself." Jiang Lan smiled faintly.
"You...what do you want to do in exchange for letting me go?" Chong Xiuyuan felt a chill on his back.
"You are indeed a rare talent. Although you seem to be frightened and panicked on the surface, you are actually still thinking of a way to escape. I know that Chongming Valley in Chongming Star Domain has given you a death talisman, which can protect your life at the critical moment."
"But do you think you have a chance to use that death-substitute talisman in front of me?" Jiang Lan turned his head and stared at Chong Xiuyuan, as if he saw through all his secrets.
Chong Xiuyuan's face changed drastically, and he felt that the void around him seemed to be stagnant. Only his thoughts were still moving, while his hands and feet seemed to be stuck in a quagmire and he could not move at all.
Until this moment, he finally felt deep fear and anxiety in his heart.
"Who are you?"
After a moment, Chong Xiuyuan took a deep breath, stood up, the fear on his face suddenly disappeared, and he forced himself to calm down.
"Who do you think I am?" Jiang Lan asked with a smile.
"Emperor of Heaven?"
These two words suddenly appeared in Chong Xiuyuan's mind, and then he thought of Xia Hao, who claimed to be the future Emperor of Heaven.
In front of Jiang Lan, Xia Hao was not even qualified to carry her shoes.
Until this moment, he finally began to believe those rumors. Being omniscient and almighty, mysterious and unpredictable, this was already an invincible talent that swept across the great power of heaven and earth.
Any opponent facing him would probably only have the chance to tremble.
"What do you want me to do?" Chong Xiuyuan was also a smart man and quickly guessed Jiang Lan's intention.
"Outside the territory of the Jiuzhou land, there are four ancient star fields: Gou Chen, Chong Ming, Kai Ming, and Ying Zhao. Each star field has a number of life stars, like many stars surrounding the moon, surrounding the four poles of the Jiuzhou land. According to ancient rumors, these four ancient star fields represent the four gates of the heavens. The four beasts Gou Chen, Chong Ming, Kai Ming, and Ying Zhao are the gate beasts guarding the gates of the heavens."
“As the heaven was shattered, the four sky gates collapsed, and the four guardian beasts also died. Until now, the rumors about the guardian beasts have long disappeared. However, among the secrets I know, there is an unhatched Chongming egg deep in Chongming Valley.” Jiang Lan said lightly with his hands behind his back.
"Do you want me to steal the Chongming Egg?" Chong Xiuyuan's face changed.
"Steal? Chongming is the guardian beast that I will be riding in the future. It will return to my command sooner or later. I just asked you to wake it up."
"If it senses my breath, it will come looking for me." Jiang Lan smiled faintly.
Chong Xiuyuan's expression changed again.
“Chongming Valley is the oldest force in the Chongming Star Domain. It is said that a Chongming bird once lived in it. Although there are few disciples, it is the undisputed number one sect in the Chongming Star Domain. I was accidentally spotted by the monks from Chongming Valley who came to the Jiuzhou. They wanted to learn about the current situation of the Jiuzhou through me..." Chong Xiuyuan said in a deep voice.
"It's okay. Chongming Valley has a profound foundation, but there is no saint in charge. Now in the world, only Jiuzhou still has saints left. You can just do what you want." Jiang Lan waved his hand.
Chong Xiuyuan's eyes flashed. This was the first time he heard this news.
In the world today, it seems that there is only one saint, Li Ran, the supreme elder of Taiyi Sect. But from what Jiang Lan said, he seems to know the situation of other saints?
Even how many saints there are in this world, they can't hide anything from him?
"Mr. Jiang Lan, I have another piece of news, but I don't know if you would be interested."
Thinking of this, Chong Xiuyuan suddenly said that he wanted to take a gamble.
"What news?" Jiang Lan looked at him.
"About the inheritance of the Emperor of Heaven." Chong Xiuyuan stared at Jiang Lan, trying to capture any emotional changes on his face.
However, after hearing this, Jiang Lan's expression was normal, his eyes were deep, and he was not surprised at all, as if he was not shocked at all.
"The inheritance of the Heavenly Emperor? The Heavenly Emperor has never had an inheritance, but what you are talking about should be the unique magical powers left behind by the previous Heavenly Emperor before he became an immortal." Jiang Lan said lightly.
Chong Xiuyuan lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Jiang Lan's eyes, nor to hide anything, and said, "There is a man in Hulong Mountain named Xia Hao. He calls himself the future Heavenly Emperor and controls a supreme magical power called the Heavenly Emperor Palm. He is powerful and can suppress all directions."
"Xia Hao?"
Jiang Lan muttered the name, nodded slightly, and asked, "Where is he now?"
"In the clan residence. This time he followed Xia Xuan'ao from Hulong Mountain down the mountain. However, Xia Xuan'ao had already been captured by the prime minister in the main hall." Chong Xiuyuan replied.
Jiang Lan nodded and said, "Alright, this time we should start clearing out the corrupt officials among the royal family from the clan house. Go back and keep an eye on Xia Hao, don't let him leave the imperial capital."
"yes."
Chong Xiuyuan didn't dare to refuse. Compared to offending Hulong Mountain, he didn't want to offend Jiang Lan even more.
As for the idea of escaping away from the imperial capital, he had thought about it, but he soon found that this was not realistic unless he could escape to outside the domain.
But the land of Jiuzhou is obviously the center of the next world. If you want to seek benefits, you must seize the favorable opportunities here.
Otherwise, why are those Taoist forces outside the domain starting to try to find ways to contact the land of Kyushu?
Perhaps working for Jiang Lan will be his next fortune.
Jiang Lan did not use any means like leaving a slave mark on Chong Xiuyuan. This person is very smart and knows how to handle situations. If used well, he can be a good chess piece.
Not long after Chong Xiuyuan quietly left this side hall, Emperor Xia came here led by several palace maids.
"Have all the matters in the palace been dealt with?" Jiang Lan smiled and gestured for her to come over.
Emperor Xia hesitated for a moment, waved his hand to dismiss all the palace maids, then came to his side and said, "Let's deal with it for now. There are many things to settle later. So Chong Xiuyuan, why did you let him go?"
Jiang Lan smiled and said, "This person is still very useful to me. He can lure out some poisonous snakes hiding in the dark."
Emperor Xia nodded, staring at him with his phoenix eyes, and asked, "You were assassinated by the Jade Green Sword Immortal, is it true or false... Are you injured?"
"Why do you still care about me?"
Jiang Lan smiled, reached out and grasped her jade hand which was hidden under her luxurious robe, and said, "The Jade Green Sword Immortal can't do anything to me. At most, he can cause me some minor troubles, which is not a big deal."
"Isn't it normal that I care about you?" Emperor Xia felt that his hand was starting to play tricks on him and couldn't help but glare at him sideways, but he didn't pull his hand back.
"Your Majesty cares so much about me, I am truly humbled." Jiang Lan said with a smile.
"Don't be so proud. I'm just worried that something happened to you and that no one will help me in the future." Emperor Xia glared at him again. If Jiang Lan hadn't suddenly arrived today, things would have been difficult to handle.
If she hadn't had the aura of an emperor that he gave her, she would probably still be suppressed by the Dragon Protection Order today. In this case, the situation in the court would inevitably get out of control.
Thinking about it carefully, she was still a little scared. Huolong Mountain had always had ways to hold the emperor hostage, but she had never taken it too seriously before.
But now it seems that in the eyes of Hulongshan, if she, the emperor, is disobedient, she can be replaced at any time, even if a foreign relative like the Prince of Chong'an who was given the surname Xia is in power.
"Places like Hulong Mountain and Zongrenfu must be eradicated, otherwise my power will always be challenged." Emperor Xia also had his own considerations and calculations in mind.
At the moment, she has been completely tied to the chariot of the Prime Minister's Mansion, even though this is not what she wants.
"Your Majesty is really snobbish. Just because I'm useless to you, will you abandon me like a chess piece..." Jiang Lan sighed.
"That's right, I am a snob, so don't get hurt..."
Emperor Xia suddenly became angry and pulled his hand back, not allowing him to touch it.
Jiang Lan smiled and was not annoyed. He continued to tease her and check if she had made any progress during her retreat.
A moment later, Emperor Xia fell down on the bed, the first to lose. His snow-white neck was stained with blood-red. His slender and round legs stretched out from under his imperial robe and pushed him hard, saying angrily, "What do you want to do in broad daylight, you bastard..."
"Deceiving the king..."
Jiang Lan looked calm. He grabbed the slender little foot wearing the embroidered shoes with dragons and phoenixes, and then took them off calmly while Emperor Xia was struggling. Suddenly, a slender and graceful jade-like foot wrapped in pure white shark silk stockings appeared in front of him.
Emperor Xia knew that this guy was bold, but he didn't expect him to bully him like this in broad daylight. This was not in the bedroom, but in the side hall behind the main hall, and all the ministers in the court were still there.
"Jiang Lan..." Her tone softened and she began to give in.
"You and I have been married for many days, but we have not consummated our marriage. Who will inherit this vast Great Xia kingdom in the future?" Jiang Lan asked.
"..." Emperor Xia paused for a moment, and then he really thought about this problem seriously.
As a result, she suddenly felt her feet getting cold, and her stockings were pulled off by Jiang Lan. Her face instantly turned red like smoke. She stretched out her feet to kick him, trying to break free, but found that she couldn't use any strength for some reason.
"Jiang Lan, I was wrong..."
Jiang Lan was happy. She was so strong and domineering, but she still had this day.
He looked at the round, smooth, slender and white jade toes and felt a lot of evil interest. Suddenly, a real feather of an unknown spiritual bird appeared in his palm.
Soon, Emperor Xia cried out in surprise, her fair face flushed, and she felt so itchy that she wanted to reach out and scratch him.
Every time this happened, Jiang Lan always felt that Jiang Ruxian was getting in the way.
…
"The Chong'an County Prince's Mansion was surrounded by the Tianshi Jiansi people, and many ministers in the court were also trapped in the palace and unable to escape."
"It looks like there's a big problem."
In the clan government's meeting hall, several royal ancestors and members of the royal family gathered to discuss matters.
Everyone's face was gloomy, and the emperor's uncle Xia Guheng, who was following Prince Chong'an that day, was even paler.
"I noticed something was wrong and left the palace immediately, but Patriarch Xuan Ao was half a step slower. I guess something must have happened." He was still a little scared.
"Ancestor Xuan'ao is a powerful being who has survived five heavenly tribulations. It shouldn't be that easy for him to get into trouble. Besides, is the Prime Minister's Mansion so bold as to break off relations with Hulong Mountain?" The other imperial uncles were still hoping for a lucky break and thought that this matter might not be a big deal.
Xia Guheng said with a pale face, "Jiang Lintian's strength has probably improved even further. When I fled the palace, I saw from a distance that Emperor Xuan Ao was in his hands and had no power to resist at all."
After hearing this, the atmosphere in the hall became even heavier.
"There are still many retainers from other Taoist holy places in the Chong'an County Prince's Mansion. At present, the charge that he colluded with Dongyuan Prefecture cannot be cleared."
"The Prime Minister's Mansion is determined not to let the Taoist holy land of Dongyuan Prefecture take root in Zhongtian Prefecture. Sooner or later, it will cause a huge disaster." Many people looked uneasy and worried.
"The Xiangguo Mansion is so bold that it even dares to disobey the orders of Hulong Mountain and confront Hulong Mountain. When the ancestors of Hulong Mountain come out, they will definitely settle accounts with the Xiangguo Mansion as soon as possible."
Xia Hao, the only young man in the hall, had a gloomy face as he turned the white jade Qilin ring in his hand.
His protector this time when he went down the mountain was his imperial ancestor Xia Xuan'ao. In order to cooperate with Prince Chong'an in forcing the emperor to abdicate and impeach Emperor Xia, he followed him into the palace and protected his safety in secret. By the way, he would show up at the critical moment to take charge of the situation.
But who would have known that the Prime Minister's Mansion would not play by the rules, but directly arrested him in front of all the ministers, and labeled him as an assassin of the Dongyuanzhou Wangyue Ancient School.
At present, he has sent the message back to Hulong Mountain, but there has been no response from the other side.
The royal family members in the Zongrenfu were also worried about this. The Xiangguofu didn't even care about Hulong Mountain, so why would they care about the Zongrenfu? "For now, we should find a way to leave the imperial capital and go back to Hulong Mountain to avoid the limelight."
"Given Xia Junxi's personality, he will definitely not let us go." Several imperial uncles looked at each other, already feeling fearful.
Xia Hao waved his hand and snorted coldly, "The Xiangguo Mansion is going against the grain, and will sooner or later arouse public anger. Why are you still afraid of them at this time? You are really cowardly. How can the major holy places in Dongyuan Prefecture allow their disciples to be captured by the people of the Heavenly Supervisor? At this time, you don't contact them and put pressure on them together. You are standing here in fear and waiting to be killed. What's the difference between this and waiting to die?"
Being scolded by him like this, everyone in the hall turned pale.
"Master Xia Hao, what do you think?"
Xia Guheng asked hurriedly. In his opinion, Xia Hao came out of Hulong Mountain after all, and claimed to be the future Emperor of Heaven. His methods and knowledge must be extraordinary. Perhaps he would know a way to break the impasse at this time.
"The son of the Prince of Chong'an, Chong Xiuyuan wants to see you."
At this moment, a hurried report suddenly came from outside the hall.
"Chong Xiuyuan, why did he escape?"
The people who were discussing and talking were all startled, and Xia Hao narrowed his eyes and looked outside the hall.
Soon, Chong Xiuyuan came running over with a pale face, and knelt on the ground as soon as he arrived, crying, "I still beg you uncles to help my father. The Xia Emperor was ruthless and even the Dragon Guardian Order was invalid for her. My father was conspired with the Blood Immortal Cult and forged the Dragon Guardian Order, and was taken away by the Heavenly Supervisor."
"I took advantage of the chaos in the court and used the life-saving jade talisman my father left me to transform into a beam of light and escape. That's how I escaped."
"Now, all the ministers are imprisoned in the palace. The Heavenly Supervisory Department is searching every house to find the bases of the various Taoist holy places in Dongyuanzhou. Now only the uncles can come forward to save the situation..."
"Emperor Xia is determined to stand with the Prime Minister's Mansion. It will be useless for us to come forward at this time. No one can be Jiang Lintian's opponent, unless the highest-ranking royal ancestors of Hulong Mountain come forward."
Hearing Chong Xiuyuan's crying, everyone in the hall felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, and their faces looked even more gloomy.
Xia Hao's face also became gloomy and ugly, and he kept turning the white jade Qilin ring in his hand.
Boom!!!
At this moment, a loud shocking sound suddenly came from outside the clan residence, and the faces of many uncles and elders who were discussing things in the hall suddenly changed.
Many monks who were practicing in the clan residences in the stone caves in other high mountains and ancient peaks were also alarmed.
Teams of knights wearing golden armor and holding spears appeared outside the clan residence like a torrent, surrounding the area within a thousand miles.
Above the sky, there were rumbling chariots and fluttering battle flags. Several commanders of the Sky Monitoring Department appeared there, wearing armor, with heavenly swords on their waists, and shining divine clouds, looking down disdainfully.
"The Imperial Clan Bureau colluded with Dongyuan Prefecture and intended to overthrow the Great Xia state. The Heavenly Supervisory Department has been ordered to conduct a thorough investigation and anyone who interferes will be killed without mercy."
A loud shout resounded in the sky, shaking the imperial capital and causing countless monks and creatures to be terrified.
In the garrisons of various immortal sects, many disciples were shocked by this scene and were speechless.
What happened in the palace today has not yet been spread out, and many people still don’t know what happened.
But the Imperial Clan Court represents the royal family and is the most authoritative place in Daxia.
And now, it is also being thoroughly investigated by the Heavenly Supervisory Department?
"That's too much."
At that moment, an elder in the clan residence had a livid face and was extremely angry. He took a step forward and appeared in the sky, shouting, "The Prime Minister's Mansion has been confounding right and wrong and confusing black and white. It has overwhelmed the whole world and now it wants to purge even our clan residence? Is there still justice in this world?"
"Could it be that our Great Xia Empire has fallen into the hands of the thief Jiang today?"
The roar of anger was packed with astonishing magical power, like the sound of a Huangzhong bell, which spread out in an instant, shaking in all directions of the sky, and even the clouds on the horizon were defeated, which was enough to show his anger.
"How dare you! The Prince of Chong'an colluded with Dongyuan Prefecture and joined forces with the Blood Immortal Sect to steal the national treasure, the Dragon Seal. The evidence is irrefutable. The clan office knew about this and secretly covered it up. According to the laws of Daxia, his royal blood should be cut off, his cultivation abolished, and he should be demoted to a commoner."
The commander-in-chief of the Tianshi Division had eyes as bright as the scorching sun, with a fiery light flowing through his body. He was filled with murderous intent and shouted in a deep voice.
"Ridiculous! The Heavenly Supervisor is not qualified to investigate my clan office."
"Even if Emperor Xia came in person, she would not be qualified."
Inside the clan residence, several angry shouts were heard again, and several old figures wrapped in flowing light rushed into the sky. The power of heaven and earth intertwined on their bodies, and the rays of light bloomed. One chain of order flowed after another, like a majestic ancient god, bringing with them a terrifying oppression like a vast ocean.
There is no doubt that these are several powerful figures at the eighth level, who can be called living fossils. They have been sitting deep in the clan house and rarely show up.
Just by standing high in the sky, they made all the monks and creatures in all directions tremble with fear.
Although the Jiantian Division has a solid foundation, it seems to lack confidence when facing the Zongrenfu, which has always enjoyed the support of the Daxia royal family.
The commander-in-chief clearly felt his blood flow to the ground and he was unable to stand steadily.
"When we became famous, Emperor Xia had not yet been born, and the Heavenly Monitoring Office had not yet been established. How could you be qualified to investigate us?"
"When we were expanding the territory for Great Xia and consolidating the foundation, Emperor Xia's father was still in his infancy, crying for food. Now, she dares to send you to humiliate us?"
Three hazy and tall figures stood high above the clan palace, surrounded by misty and chaotic fog. Although they were old, the energy and blood in their bodies were not weak at all, and even seemed like a deep abyss or a volcanic furnace.
One of them even spoke up, mocking and ridiculing without hesitation.
He took a step forward, his cheekbones glowed, and then a terrifying blood and energy like a wolf smoke rushed out from the top of his head, like a real dragon of blood and energy, piercing through the sky and sinking into the sky. Even the stars outside the domain were trembling.
Such a scene frightened many cultivators and living beings in the Great Xia Imperial Capital. They trembled with fear and could not help but kowtow and kneel down.
The chief commander of the Heavenly Monitoring Division who had just shouted the question was forced to retreat several steps. His blood was boiling and he could hardly stand. His eyes were filled with shock.
"Grandpa went to court and hasn't come back yet. Could it be that he is really imprisoned in the palace?"
"These people are probably the most important figures in the clan government, real masters of the eighth realm. Even such beings have been alarmed. Will grandpa be in trouble..."
Inside the Zhao residence, a beautiful young girl in white with bright eyes and white teeth was looking at the sky in the distance with shock and great worry in her heart. It was Zhao Dieyi, who had returned home on the pretext of visiting her relatives.
Beside her, many members of the Zhao family, young and old, were also filled with worry and fear.
At this moment, there was a scene of shock and uproar in all the mansions and palaces in the imperial capital, and almost everyone was watching this astonishing scene from afar.
In the mansions and private residences of various ministers, many female relatives were filled with anxiety and fear, feeling that the weather in the imperial capital was about to change today.
"This is an order personally issued by the Xia Emperor. Even if you are a clan official, you cannot break the law. The previous emperor also issued an order that if the emperor breaks the law, he should be punished the same as the common people."
The commander-in-chief of the Heavenly Supervisory Department was oppressed by the momentum, but he was not afraid. He stood firmly and slowly drew out the Heavenly Sword at his waist.
"How ridiculous! Today I want to see how Queen Xia can be so brave."
The elder from the clan house had a very cold light in his eyes. He blew out a puff of white mist from his mouth. With a clang, a purple sword appeared from the mist. It shone with an extremely sharp light and slashed straight towards the commander-in-chief of the Tianjian Division.
The light of such a sword is so bright that it looks like a huge purple sun, covering the sky, and no one can stop it.
Frightened by his aura alone, the commander-in-chief of the Heavenly Supervision Department flew sideways and vomited blood. The Heavenly Sword in his hand fell down, and he wanted to resist, but it suddenly cracked and broke into pieces.
"You ignorant ant, dare you draw your sword against me?"
The elder from the clan house had cold eyes and murderous intent. He wanted to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys and shock everyone.
The clan government had not appeared in the world for a long time. Did they really think they were soft persimmons that could be bullied by others? He raised his hand and grabbed it, and the sword flew back and chopped it off again. The target of this attack was the head of the commander of the Tianjiansi.
But at this moment, the clouds above the sky suddenly dissipated, and a huge golden hand reached out from the palace, crossed a distance of a thousand miles in an instant, and slapped down on the purple sword with a clang, causing it to fall to the ground instantly. Fine cracks instantly spread all over the sword.
"who?"
The elder from the clan house's office looked changed, his body trembled, and his eyes were fixed on the palace. The sword was something he had cultivated with his mind and soul, and now it was damaged, so he was injured too.
"The clan government disobeyed the holy order and committed murder in front of people. Such behavior is no different from the Blood Immortal Cult."
Above the sky, robes fluttered and a light voice echoed.
At the same time, as the void twisted, Jiang Lan took a step forward, and appeared in the clan residence, standing with his hands behind his back, overlooking the area below.
