Chapter 1778: Chapter 1779: Bowing Only to the Emperor
“That man, although it’s my first ti seeing him, I can sense his aversion towards Chengyu. When I was in the Luo Clan, I’ve seen countless people around show this kind of emotion, so no matter how well it’s hidden, I can sense it.”
“When he was saving you, he indeed fell into the open trap set by Su Chengyu specifically for him, not just once. This ti, it’s using his own ways against him. It seems like a deliberate act of revenge.”
Bai Qiu spoke from the side.
Ling Xiao, who was by the side, scoffed upon hearing this and said disdainfully, “Isn’t this a bit too petty?”
Xu Nanzhi chuckled softly and then said lightly, “Perhaps humans are such a petty species. Those emotions that may seem trivial to others appear so important in so people’s eyes.”
Everyone was silent.
Because of Xu Nanzhi’s words, they all, more or less, felt it.
“So Lady Saintess, are you really going with them?”
Xu Nanzhi nodded, then continued, “Don’t worry, it will be fine. In my mind, I have the entire legacy of the Luo Clan. Compared to my life, these things are what they truly want. After all, they will soon find out that the true legacy of the Luo Clan isn’t much covered in those ancient books.”
Luo Changping fell into silence upon hearing this. He knew Xu Nanzhi was telling the truth, but even so, he was still uneasy about letting Xu Nanzhi leave with them just like that.
Secrets are bound to be exhausted one day, and once that day cos and Su Chengyu has not returned, Xu Nanzhi would beco a worthless threat.
More importantly, for Luo Changping, Su Chengyu’s stance, life and death, compared to Xu Nanzhi, are too negligible. He couldn’t bear to just hand Xu Nanzhi over to the people of the Heaven Punishnt Departnt.
“It seems everyone understands, so I must entrust the matters thereafter to all of you.”
Having said that, Xu Nanzhi bowed to everyone again and turned around, walking towards Han Xiaotian.
Han Xiaotian was sowhat surprised to see that the people had changed their stance; in his design, directly clashing with these people was undoubtedly the best scenario.
This way, whether Su Chengyu could return or not in the future, he was confident he could completely pin Su Chengyu on the traitor’s pillar of sha.
If he didn’t return, so be it, but if he did, he would definitely make Su Chengyu regret being his enemy.
“This woman has so skills.”
The complint carried a hint of coldness, and for the first ti, there was a murderous intent in Han Xiaotian’s gaze at Xu Nanzhi.
Since he acknowledged Xu Nanzhi’s abilities, he couldn’t let this threat continue to survive.
After all, once she enters the Heaven Punishnt Departnt, Han Xiaotian could find ten thousand ways to make Xu Nanzhi die inside without dirtying his own hands.
Of course, these matters, as the Tianzi Third-Rank Secret Envoy of the Heaven Punishnt Departnt, Zigui would absolutely not know.
“Secret Envoy Zigui, I’ll leave it to you.”
Zigui, although surprised that Xu Nanzhi actually persuaded the others, confird that no one intended to act, so he sheathed his battle intent and nodded.
“Thank you for your cooperation.”
With that, Zigui began to use the Heaven Punishnt Departnt’s secret technique, preparing to bind Xu Nanzhi’s hands and feet first.
However, just as the secret technique ford and shackled Xu Nanzhi’s hands.
A flash of sword light fell from the sky, instantly severing the shackles on Xu Nanzhi’s hands.
The sudden change made Secret Envoy Zigui look up and shout coldly.
“Who dares obstruct the Heaven Punishnt Departnt’s enforcent!”
“.”
The indifferent voice ca from above; Ye Qingci, who had just erged from the Shattered Cave Heaven, landed directly in front of everyone.
“Cold Moon Envoy?”
Zigui looked at Ye Qingci, slightly frowning, clearly finding her appearance troubleso.
“Cold Moon Envoy, are you also going to obstruct our Heaven Punishnt Departnt’s enforcent?”
The one speaking was Han Xiaotian, his words carrying a hint of danger.
However, just as Han Xiaotian finished his words, he sensed several presences appearing beside him.
Before Han Xiaotian could react, these presences slapped him, one on the left and one on the right, directly on his face.
Slap!
The solid slap left Han Xiaotian stunned; as he barely steadied himself, he glared angrily at Ye Qingci and said.
“Ye Qingci! You…”
Slap!
Before Han Xiaotian could finish, Ye Qingci slapped him again, cutting him off coldly.
“What are you to call my na directly!”
“You…”
Han Xiaotian instinctively tried to speak, but sensing the presence ready to condense beside him again, he quickly shut his mouth, covering his cheeks with both hands, but his eyes glaring at Ye Qingci were filled with unabated hatred.
Ye Qingci looked at this scene, snorted coldly, knowing that killing him now would bring many troubles, and she did not continue to humiliate Han Xiaotian but turned to Zigui and said.
“I will escort this person to the capital, and everything will proceed as Su Chengyu promised before.”
“But…”
“You believed in a promise from Su Chengyu, what doubts do you have about my words?”
Ye Qingci directly interrupted Zigui’s words.
Zigui then said, “Cold Moon Envoy, there’s a misunderstanding; I didn’t an it like that, I just worry she might not cooperate with your actions.”
“If she doesn’t cooperate with , will she cooperate with you? Tianzi Third-Rank, don’t think that just because you Secret Envoys have powers almost equal to the Demon Slayer Saint, you can speak to as equals. Don’t forget the rules personally set by the forr emperor back then! You are not qualified to lecture !”
As Ye Qingci’s voice fell, the pressure unique to an Earth Immortal spread mightily in all directions.
Even Han Xiaotian, who couldn’t accept it, had to lower his head at this mont, not daring to look Ye Qingci directly in the eye as if in submission.
Seeing the silence, Ye Qingci snorted coldly, “Hurry up and leave the Luo Clan’s Blessed Realm, if that Cave Heaven collapses and causes any disturbances affecting your people, I can’t guarantee your safety.”
Before was a threat, and her words were blatant intimidation.
Zigui understood Ye Qingci’s implication, nodded, and said nothing further, leaving with Han Xiaotian.
On the way, Han Xiaotian used mana to heal his cheeks but found that Ye Qingci’s slaps had used so special technique, which, though not causing internal injury, would keep his swollen cheeks from subsiding for weeks.
“That bitch is vicious.”
Zigui eyed Han Xiaotian coldly and replied, “Watch your mouth; you can’t imagine an Earth Immortal’s hearing.”
“What if she hears! Does she really dare to kill ?”
“That can’t be said.”
Zigui calmly replied, making Han Xiaotian quiver and instinctively ask.
“Are you serious?”
“If she killed you and , the Cold Moon Envoy would indeed face so trouble. But don’t forget what the forr emperor once said to you.”
On the land of Xia Country, those who achieve Earth Immortal, regardless of background, regardless of position, are second only to the emperor.
