As Yan Huazhang's mind moved, stars suddenly appeared around him, shining brightly and vastly.
In the starlight around him, a chessboard was suspended with the secrets of heaven as the thread and the stars as the pieces. This chessboard was his Dao soul - the chessboard of the universe, which had the ability to predict the secrets of heaven.
At some point, a crystal chess piece emitting silver light condensed from Yan Huazhang's fingertips. He was raising his hand at this moment, intending to drop it into the chessboard of the universe in front of him.
"Xing Luo reappears."
Although these four words came from Yan Huazhang's mouth, they were not as elegant and easy-going as usual. Instead, they sounded vast and ethereal, and not quite real.
The secret is revealed and the chess piece is settled.
A picture appeared on the chessboard of the universe.
The location in the picture is exactly where Yan Huazhang and the others were standing. However, the person in the scene is not them, but a strange middle-aged man.
This person was surrounded by a group of eager spiritualists. This scene looked like an ambush.
The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "Humph! What a grand show. First, they tricked me into coming to Sayuan City alone under the pretext of the governor's title, and then they set an ambush to assassinate me. Your son is really a coward!"
"General Qi, your death is imminent, so don't waste your breath. Just go on your way with peace of mind!" The one who spoke was the leader of the group of spiritual masters, a tall and thin man.
It was really General Qi! What happened to him? How could a powerful True Immortal Realm master be besieged by a group of eighth and ninth level spiritual masters and be unable to fight back?
Not long after, he heard Qi He exclaim loudly: "The Emperor's Sword?! This is His Majesty's sword, how dare you blaspheme it! Is that man planning to rebel?"
What! The Emperor's Sword of the World! Yan Huazhang immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
This is the sword that all the emperors of Daxia have worn since the founding of the country.
It not only represents the majesty of the emperor, but also has its own forbidden spirit field. Once activated, it can seal all the spiritual power within the field, and even the immortal power possessed by the real immortal realm strongmen will be greatly suppressed.
Such a national treasure was secretly used by these people behind the scenes to harm loyal officials! It is really outrageous!
Yan Huazhang was so angry at this scene that he trembled. No wonder General Qi was suppressed and beaten, it turned out to be like this!
Fortunately, Qi He finally broke out of the encirclement and fled to the south, but his jade pendant was left here.
The content on the screen disappears here.
Yan Huazhang recalled his Dao Soul, but his face looked very ugly. He could feel that Qi He was still alive, but his condition was not very good.
From the previous scene, we can know that Qi He should be loyal to Daxia and the Daxia royal family just like him. However, Qi He's current situation is extremely dangerous.
No matter from which perspective, he had to save Qi He. Once Qi He was killed by the rebels, Xilin City would no longer receive any reinforcements.
However, the clues he had were very limited, and he had no way of knowing Qi He's current whereabouts.
Why did Qi He run south at that time? That's right! He remembered that the south of Sayuan City was the largest military base in Saxi Province. Qi He must have wanted to go there to gather a large army to resist the rebels.
But if the city gates are checked so strictly, can Qi He escape?
Yes! Yan Huazhang came to this conclusion without much thought.
After all, Qi He is a true fairyland master, and ordinary soldiers can't stop him at all, even if he is suppressed by the forbidden spirit field and there is a group of pursuers chasing him.
But will we be safe if we leave the city? The answer is no.
The terrain outside Sayuan City was open, which was not conducive for Qi He to escape. He would be caught up before he could run halfway.
If he were Qi He, he would definitely not choose such a hard-line approach. As the governor of Saxi Province, Qi He would not be so shallow.
Therefore, Qi He would first find a place to hide, and then slowly make plans. With Qi He's ability, it would be very easy to conceal his aura among a group of spiritual masters who didn't even have the strength of a true fairyland.
When Qi He was ambushed, it was also the time when the diplomatic mission was setting out. If a few days had passed, Qi He should have been ready to take action.
No! If Qi He really took action, he would definitely fall into the trap of the rebels!
Because once Qi He takes action, he will definitely contact his confidants.
Originally, these trusted subordinates of Qi He were all in the main camp, because they were protected by a large army and would not easily give others a chance to take advantage of them. But if they left the main camp to rescue Qi He, they would be obvious targets.
The rebels could easily set up an ambush in advance and wipe out Qi He and his confidants at once.
The Sasi state, where a large number of senior military officials have been killed, will be an easy target for the rebels!
No! We must not let this happen!
"Here you go, take it. I have important things to do next, so don't follow me." Yan Huazhang threw the jade pendant in his hand to Zhu Xiang and turned away.
Zhu Xiang first smiled because of taking the jade pendant, but after hearing his last words, the smile disappeared immediately.
"Stop! I swear I won't cause any trouble. Please don't chase me away~" Zhuxiang carefully pulled the corner of Yan Huazhang's clothes.
"Then... follow him." Yan Huazhang softened his heart again.
Zhuxiang nodded happily and agreed.
At the same time, a fierce battle was taking place five kilometers away from the first camp of the Sassi State.
One side of the war wore the standard armor of the Daxia army, while the other side wore spiritual armor of the same style.
But the situation on the field was completely one-sided. The Daxia army was completely beaten by the other side because they could not use spiritual power.
If they were not all well-trained elites with first-rate combat capabilities, they would have been wiped out by now.
"He's going to lure the snake out of its hole and catch it all in one fell swoop! Who is your son? Is he a cabinet member or a senior military official?"
Although Qi He knew that he could not escape the disaster, he was unwilling to do so. The people behind this group of rebels really deserved to die!
"Tsk! A dying man has no right to know the name of my family! Prepare to die!"
The one who spoke was the tall and thin man who had led the group to kill Qi He. He was now madly attacking Qi He with a spiritual sword in hand.
Just as Qi He was about to die tragically because he couldn't dodge in time, a small metal lump suddenly shot out at him at high speed, accurately and sharply deflecting the tall and thin man's spirit sword.
Then, a clear and elegant voice sounded: "Don't panic, General Qi, I'm here to help you!"
Qi He took this opportunity to quickly withdraw and step back, then he took the time to take a look at the source of the sound.
"Master Yan? Why are you here? Didn't you escort the prince to the marriage?"
Qi He was surprised and prayed secretly that nothing would happen to His Highness.
"Let's talk about this later. Let's deal with these troublemakers first."
Yan Huazhang answered without stopping his hands.
Although he had just saved Qi He with the psychic musket given by His Highness, it was obvious that even the psychic weapon was suppressed by the Human Emperor's Sword of Suppressing the World and could not be integrated into the spiritual power.
He must resolve the forbidden spirit area!
Yan Huazhang moved quickly and quickly offered a metal token. As soon as this token came out, it resonated with the Human Emperor's Sword.
Afterwards, Qi He felt that the forbidden spirit field that had been covering them suddenly had no effect on them!
Could this be...
"It's the identity token of Duke Jianing! Too bad, your highness is fine!" Qi He exclaimed excitedly.
After he was ambushed, what he was most worried about was not whether Daxia could catch the murderer who assassinated the emperor, but whether the eldest prince who went to Yunqi State to marry was still safe.
This situation shows that there is a rebellion. The emperor has passed away, and if the princess is also killed, then Daxia will be completely finished.
Fortunately! May the ancestors of Daxia bless us!
Yan Huazhang, who was standing by, was relieved when he saw the token was working. The rumors were true, and the Human Emperor Sword would not attack the Great Xia royal family.
The biggest limitation was solved and the situation was reversed.
Just when Qi He was leading his trusted men to annihilate the other side, those people did something to the Human Emperor's World-Suppressing Sword, causing it to emit a buzzing sound, and spiritual energy was surging on the sword, as if they were brewing some powerful move.
