Chapter 152: If You Kill Them, Wei Wujie Will Die!
Chapter 152: If You Kill Them, Wei Wujie Will Die!
As the young man lifted the two figures, their bodies limp like dead dogs, a fleeting moment of confusion flashed across the faces of everyone present, regardless of whether they were the Great Generals of the Ji-Yi-Bing Three Armies, Xiang Qingyu and the others further away, or the three Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion.
For Xiang Qingyu and the others, one of these men was of noble status, a member of the Gao Clan, while the other was incredibly powerful, a Supreme Grandmaster on par with the Governor General!
This was also the reason why the people from the Governor's Mansion had entered Linyuan City and why Su Zimo and the others had urgently summoned the Great Generals of the Ji-Yi-Bing Three Armies.
With the Governor General absent, the disparity in strength was too great, and they couldn't hold their ground against the opponent! Even with the presence of the three Great Generals, the gap in strength was still evident, making it difficult to bridge the difference.
That was why they had been stalemated within the Commander's Mansion, facing off against the people from the Governor's Mansion for over a day.
They understood that the people from the Governor's Mansion weren't genuinely asking them to defect and leave the Demon Slayer's faction. Instead, they were demonstrating their power!
They were warning them! The Governor's Mansion had a profound foundation, and even a Governor General from a province would suffer defeat!
They wanted to make it clear who was the most powerful within Qingzhou and who the heavens of Qingzhou belonged to!
No one could stop what the Governor's Mansion intended to do!
Not Wei Wujie!
Nor the Demon Slayers of Qingzhou!
Su Zimo, Xiang Qingyu, and the others had already gradually accepted this outcome in their hearts. After all, even the Governor General had been defeated, and their stubborn resistance was of no use.
But at this moment, when the figure in the golden-patterned black robe appeared, a fleeting thought arose in their minds.
Especially for Xiang Qingyu!
Upon seeing Wu Ruguang, who had almost crippled them with a casual punch, now covered in blood, his bones shattered, and being held up like a dead dog by the young man, a surge of emotions welled up in Xiang Qingyu's heart.
He didn't feel envy, jealousy, resentment, or anger; instead, he felt a sense of redemption, as if he had seen a ray of light in the darkness.
"Master can be saved!" Xiang Qingyu's heart echoed with this thought.
For the three Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion, every move they made was under Wu Ruguang's command.
At this moment, this Supreme Grandmaster had only rushed out for a short time before being brought back like a dead dog, leaving them uncertain about their next step for a while.
However, the crowd's confusion was only momentary.
The three Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion quickly reacted.
In an instant, they abandoned the Great Generals of the Ji-Yi-Bing Three Armies, and two of them rushed towards Qin Zheng, intending to snatch Gao Wu Ying and Wu Ruguang from his hands.
Meanwhile, the last one used his light body technique to flee.
The situation had changed!
There was such a powerful figure in Linyuan City, and they must quickly report this news back to the Governor's Mansion!
Although the three had good intentions and acted swiftly, in the face of overwhelming strength, all plans were futile!
Just then, Qin Zheng calmly watched as the three Great Grandmasters charged towards him. He slowly released his hands, letting Gao Wu Ying and Wu Ruguang fall to the ground.
At the same time, he reached out to capture the three Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion.
Whoosh!
At that moment, a dark shadow suddenly rushed out from his side.
"Leave these two to me!"
At the same time, Zhao Li's voice echoed in Qin Zheng's ear.
This Supreme Grandmaster, who had come from the Imperial Capital and never had the chance to showcase his skills, finally got his opportunity!
His figure moved like a swift shadow, and in an instant, he reached the two Great Grandmasters.
He then extended his hands, and Essence Energy surged and covered them, using his palms as blades. With a swift motion, he slashed downwards!
Whoosh!!
A blade of light, sharp as a crescent moon, flashed brightly.
Immediately after, the two Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion were sent flying backwards at an even faster speed!
Blood splattered on the spot!
They fell heavily to the ground, unable to struggle anymore.
With just a brief encounter, the two Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion were instantly severely injured!
Without pausing, Zhao Li took a step forward and rushed out at an even faster speed, chasing after the fleeing Great Grandmaster.
And at this moment, the escaping figure hadn't even gone far and was still within everyone's line of sight!
In an instant, Zhao Li caught up and struck with another palm strike, severely injuring him!
Effortlessly and swiftly, like a flowing river!
This series of actions, as they appeared in Xiang Qingyu's eyes, evoked a description in his mind.
"Governor Zhao!"
When Zhao Li returned with his hands behind his back...
The Great Generals of the Ji-Yi-Bing Three Armies respectfully spoke up.
As Zhao Li was a friend of Wei Wujie, this wasn't his first time in Qingzhou, and the three Great Generals naturally recognized him.
Zhao Li nodded upon hearing their words and then glanced briefly towards Qin Zheng.
Hmph, kid, I'm not bad either!
Such was his thought.
However, his subtle meaning didn't seem to be understood by Qin Zheng.
Qin Zheng then lifted Gao Wu Ying and Wu Ruguang again and headed towards the hall where they had previously discussed matters.
He calmly spoke, "Bring everyone in, and let's find out what's going on."
Upon hearing his words, the three Great Generals nodded and immediately leaped forward, picking up the three heavily injured Great Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion.
They knew Zhao Li, and naturally, they also knew Qin Zheng.
Although it was their first meeting, they were well aware of how Qin Zheng had executed the Cangyuan Dragon Sovereign with a single strike.
Regarding this new personal disciple of the Governor General, a single thought echoed in their hearts.
In the shallow waters of Qingzhou, a true dragon was about to emerge!
After Qin Zheng entered the council hall, Xiang Qingyu finally came to his senses, his mind returning to him. Holding a great halberd, he looked at Qin Zheng with some trepidation.
However, Qin Zheng merely glided past him without saying much.
Stopping in front of Su Zimo, Sun Zilan, and Fu Yu, he looked at them and asked, "Are you all right?"
Although they weren't very familiar, they were still considered family as they were all personally taught by the General.
Su Zimo shook his head and said, "These are minor matters; the main issue is about the Master."
Qin Zheng nodded and then, amidst the gazes of the four personally taught disciples, he casually tossed Gao Wuying and Wu Ruguang to the ground and then found a place to sit.
At this moment, the three-camp General also entered and did the same to the three Grandmasters from the Governor's Mansion.
And so, at this moment, the people from the Governor's Mansion, who were just full of themselves a moment ago, now lay on the ground, covered in blood.
"What exactly happened?"
Qin Zheng asked.
At this moment, Zhao Li also entered and sat beside Qin Zheng.
The others discreetly took in this scene.
Su Zimo pondered for a moment and said, "The Master must have been restrained in the Governor's Mansion. He's probably injured but not fatally."
As he spoke, his gaze fell to the ground, where Wu Ruguang lay, his meridians seemingly broken, and his vital energy unstable.
Then, with a solemn expression, he continued, "The Governor's Mansion's secrets run deep! There's even a Supreme Grandmaster who's no weaker than the Master!"
Immediately after, his face turned stern as he looked at Qin Zheng and continued, "Besides wanting to humiliate us, they've also brought the words of the Governor of Gao."
"If you want the Master back in Linyuan City, go and exchange it with a Loyalty Voucher!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone's faces sank, and their eyes filled with cold determination.
Qin Zheng narrowed his eyes and said, "What Loyalty Voucher?"
Xiang Qingyu spoke with a cold tone, "They want us to change our allegiance and only recognize the Governor, not Linyuan City."
This wasn't just a Loyalty Voucher; it was an even more humiliating insult!
Not only were they humiliating them, but they were also humiliating Wei Wujie!
"This Gao Wenyu is truly outrageous!"
Even Zhao Li couldn't help but speak up at this moment.
However, Qin Zheng remained calm.
He stood up and came to Wu Ruguang's side. Using the blade of the Ghost Head Saber, he patted the other's face and said, "What did you do to the General?"
The chilling coldness made Wu Ruguang snap out of his daze. His injuries were too severe, and he could no longer feel pain, only endless numbness.
Hearing Qin Zheng's icy voice at this moment, his mind quickly gathered.
With difficulty, he opened his eyes and looked at the young man who had beaten him with a single punch. He opened his mouth weakly and said, "We can't go back to Wei Wujie. We won't survive."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces turned as dark as water, and the atmosphere became terrifyingly solemn!
Zhao Li even slammed the table and shouted, "Wei Wujie is a state-appointed General of a province! How dare you say you can kill him just like that!"
But his eyes were filled with seriousness, and worry was stirring.
If it were anyone else, arbitrarily imprisoning and injuring a provincial General would naturally provoke the court's anger.
But when it came to Quanyang Gao, it was hard to say.
After all, they were even planning to give up Qingzhou. The entire province, with its millions of people, would fall into the hands of the demons!
If they dared to do such a thing, what was killing a General compared to that?
Wu Ruguang sneered and didn't pay attention to Zhao Li.
Instead, he stared at Qin Zheng and continued, "And you, even if you were lucky enough to escape from the Moxu Demon Cavern, you can't escape death!"
"You took the Governor's things; no one in this world can..."
At this moment, he seemed to be in a state of clarity, speaking fluently with a lively expression.
But before he could finish his second sentence, a flash of blade light suddenly appeared.
Then, Wu Ruguang's head, filled with astonishment, rolled to the ground.
"Nonsense."
Qin Zheng spoke indifferently and then came to Gao Wuying's side. He pointed the tip of his blade at her palm and then pierced her flesh.
Ahhhh!
Gao Wuying, who had fainted, woke up in agony as the blade pierced her!
She looked at Qin Zheng, her face full of rage. Just as she was about to open her mouth to curse, the blade that had pierced her palm was withdrawn and placed on her neck.
The cold blade made her instantly snap out of her daze, suppressing her pain and fear. She opened her mouth and said, "I'm a member of the Gao family. What do you want from me?"
Qin Zheng remained calm and asked again, "What did you do to the General?"
Gao Wuying was afraid at this moment. She had been spoiled since childhood and had never experienced such a scene. She quickly said, "That old dog went to the Governor's Mansion to provoke us. My father fought and severely injured him, and he's now locked up in the Mansion!"
"It was that old dog who started it! My father is kind-hearted."
Whoosh!
A flash of blade light suddenly appeared, and another head filled with astonishment rolled to the ground.
"Tomorrow, we'll set off for Yongle Prefecture."
At the same time, Qin Zheng's voice echoed in the council hall.
A bit late, sorry!!
