As everyone exited the grand hall, they suddenly saw a figure in the distance, a man in tattered clothes with a severed arm, flying towards them in a wretched state. Fan Yipin's expression changed, revealing a hint of panic.
"Mr. Fan, what's wrong?" Bing Xuan frowned.
The group looked at the approaching figure with curiosity.
"Please wait a mont," Fan Yipin said.
"Mr. Fan, the Emperor, the Emperor he..." the man began, but Fan Yipin quickly pulled him into the hall.
"Boom~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
The doors of the hall slamd shut, and all the restrictions were activated, cutting off sound and spiritual perception.
An incense stick's ti later, the doors of the hall burst open. Fan Yipin erged, his face pale and eyes filled with panic.
"Gentlen, I cannot accompany you. Forgive !" Fan Yipin apologized to the group of Heaven Extre Realm experts.
After apologizing, Fan Yipin's figure blurred as he shot into the distance, disappearing from sight.
"Heaven Extre Realm?" Bing Xuan exclaid in surprise.
No one had expected that Fan Yipin, with his frail appearance, possessed such formidable cultivation.
Looking towards the hall, the severed-arm man was gone, likely taken away by Fan Yipin along with his corpse.
What had happened to cause such panic in Fan Yipin?
"Let's go. Even without Fan Yipin, we can still complete our mission!" one of the emperors said.
"Agreed," the others nodded.
In the Qingshui River region, a small dynasty's capital wasn't large but had everything it needed. In the rear palace, the emperor had been expelled, and a handso man in his forties had taken residence. Nurous scouts and experts constantly flew in and out, bringing the man updates on the situation.
This man was Li Si.
With his status, Li Si naturally enjoyed the best of everything. Following orders from the Great Qin Emperor, he had co to congratulate Zhongshan on his ascension and to gather intelligence. During this mission, it was best to stay in a remote area.
Thus, Li Si occupied this palace. As for the palace concubines, to Li Si, they were nothing more than mundane won, amusing but not captivating.
Every day, Li Si received reports from his scouts, analyzing them constantly.
Today, Li Si sat in a grand hall, where the palace's most beautiful won danced and sang before him, accompanied by the finest musicians, all for his enjoynt.
Li Si sat in the main seat, with a large bronze wine cup the size of a basin before him, filled with the finest wine of the Qingshui River region, the Qing River Wine.
A eunuch approached to pour the wine into a smaller cup for Li Si to savor, but Li Si waved him away, as the eunuch obstructed his view of the performance.
As he watched, Li Si's expression suddenly changed from one of relaxed enjoynt to serious and cold, his eyes flashing with a chilling light.
At the sa ti, five peerless experts stood on the peak of a high mountain outside the palace.
The five looked grave.
"The Pri Minister of Great Qin is indeed formidable," Emperor Bing Xuan said solemnly.
"How could a celestial dynasty's pri minister be weak?" another emperor said.
"Everything is in place. Once Li Si is dead, all accusations will point to the Celestial Pavilion. Then, no matter how eloquent Zhongshan is, he won't be able to clear his na," another person said.
"Everyone, we cannot afford any mistakes at this mont. Though it may seem underhanded for the five of us to deal with just one person, for the sake of our grand plan, we must go all out. At the very least, we must ensure that he loses the ability to fight back in our first strike," Bing Xuan reiterated.
The other two emperors were not foolish and nodded in agreent.
"Let's go!"
With a unanimous shout, the five Heaven Extre Realm experts moved, surrounding the palace from above, determined to eliminate Li Si in one strike.
Inside the grand hall, Li Si's face showed a cold smile, a chilling aura suddenly filling the room. The temperature in the hall dropped sharply, causing the musicians and dancers to stop their performance, shivering in the cold.
Li Si grasped the sleeve of his right arm with his left hand. He then extended his right index and middle fingers, gently tapping the wine cup before him.
As his fingers touched the clear wine, ripples spread out. Li Si pressed his fingers down further.
"Buzz~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
Above the palace, the scene mirrored that within the wine cup. Terrifying spatial ripples emanated towards the five Heaven Extre Realm experts.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Any tall buildings nearby were instantly shattered by the spatial ripples, and any birds caught in the waves were obliterated without a trace.
As the five Heaven Extre Realm experts closed in on the palace, the space at their center suddenly collapsed, sending a sense of foreboding through them.
"Buzz~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
Powerful spatial ripples surged towards the five experts. They tightened their defenses, their eyes flashing with alarm as they quickly erected their strongest barriers.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The formation surrounding the palace expanded a hundredfold. The spatial ripples ca in waves, like ripples in water, one after another.
Though they were all Heaven Extre Realm experts, apart from Bing Xuan who looked sowhat disheveled, they all managed to withstand the assault.
As they steadied themselves, their hearts filled with shock. The idea of killing Li Si began to waver.
Just as they were regaining their composure, a handso middle-aged man appeared in the space where the collapse had occurred.
The man was handso, but his eyes conveyed a profound sense of world-weariness and wisdom.
Li Si!
The hearts of the five experts tightened. Although they knew Li Si was powerful, they hadn't expected such exaggerated strength. The spatial ripples had been launched from a distance, and now he had appeared suddenly without anyone noticing.
All five were now inclined to retreat.
"Three emperors and two servants? Are you here to kill ?" Li Si asked with a cold smile.
Hearing Li Si's taunting words, the emperors, who had been about to retreat, suddenly paused, their eyes flashing with fury. Except for Bing Xuan, the other two emperors had both risen from battlefields of corpses and bones. Without the boldness to carve out an empire, how could they have established their own dynasties?
They had co today to kill Li Si. How could they flee now?
"Kill!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~"
The Heaven Extre Realm experts shouted in unison, drawing their weapons and launching a fierce assault on Li Si.
Three of the emperors wielded sabers, unleashing massive saber auras that rolled up layers of spatial waves, crashing towards Li Si like a celestial river. The other two wielded swords, their sword strikes creating billions of sword qi, a colossal impact aid directly at Li Si.
The residual impact of the battle alone destroyed the entire capital of the small dynasty, leaving the citizens with no ti to scream. Even the emperor in the palace was obliterated by the shockwave before he could cry out.
The Heaven Extre Realm experts were overwhelmingly powerful, and the combined attack of five such experts was even more devastating.
With powerful auras locking onto Li Si, all their might was focused on him, determined to annihilate him completely.
Trapped in the center, Li Si showed a cold smile. He did not defend himself, nor did he take out any magical weapons. He rely extended his right index finger.
"Zzzz..."
From Li Si's fingertip, a black line appeared, stretching ten thousand zhang long, piercing straight ahead. With a flick of his hand, the black line moved like a giant rod, slicing through the air.
Wherever the black line passed, it left a pitch-black cut.
"Spatial slicing? Heavenly..."
Before one of the emperors could finish his sentence, the black cut passed through his chest effortlessly, as if a blade slicing through tofu.
"Zzzz..."
A series of slicing sounds filled the air. Anything touched by the black cut was cleaved in two.
It was as if the black cut had sliced through the very fabric of the world.
Whether it was people or weapons, nothing could resist the terrifying cut. Everything was obliterated in its path.
The five Heaven Extre Realm experts found themselves utterly helpless against it.
Only the strongest of the Heavenly Extre Realm could shatter space, and it was evident that Li Si was of that caliber.
The experts realized too late that they had kicked an iron wall.
In an instant, four of the Heaven Extre Realm experts were killed. With just one move, they were obliterated. The final cut continued, heading straight for Emperor Bing Xuan.
Fear filled Emperor Bing Xuan's eyes. Once the hunter, he was now the hunted, unable to escape. He mustered his strongest defense, but would it hold against Li Si?
Li Si's face twisted into a sinister grin.
"Boom!"
A dull sound echoed as the black cut suddenly vanished. Space trembled violently, and the already ruined capital turned into complete rubble.
Li Si squinted his eyes. Bing Xuan had survived?
Standing in front of Bing Xuan was an old man with white hair. It was Supre Xuanwu, Guishou. He had saved Bing Xuan just in ti.
Guishou looked at Li Si with shock.
"Li Daoyou, was it necessary to go all out and leave no survivors right from the start? You are of the Heavenly Extre Realm. Isn't this behavior unbecoming of your status?" Guishou asked, still uncertain.
Li Si's expression turned dark as he looked at Guishou, then coldly glanced at Bing Xuan. "If you disrupt my pleasure, you must die. When I, Li Si, decide to kill soone, they never live!"
