Chapter 685 The Arrival in the Qin Capital

Yan Province, as all Heavenly realm powerhouses recovered, the entire province instantly became tense.

"Rumble!"

In the imperial city of Great Qin, six terrifying figures descended in an instant.

Immediately, the entire imperial city was enveloped by a terrifying pressure. Everyone in the city felt immense pressure, their bones trembled, and they had an uncontrollable urge to kneel.

The visitors were the four Heavenly realm powerhouses from the Desolate Hall, along with the Old Ancestor of the Divine Sect and the Old Ancestor of the Fire Spirit.

The six powerhouses unleashed their Heavenly realm pressure without restraint, and the entire imperial city trembled before them.

Especially one of the middle-aged female powerhouses, who exuded a murderous aura. Under the pressure of her presence, many ordinary Qin people were severely injured and fainted.

"Where is the Qin Lord? Come out!"

The woman shouted, her face a mask of coldness.

In the Qin Palace, the Qin Emperor walked out alone and clasped his fists towards the six figures in the sky.

"May I ask why you lords have come to Great Qin?"

"Presumptuous! Kneel!"

The woman shouted, and a surge of formidable aura struck the Qin Emperor.

"Pfft!"

The Qin Emperor was instantly sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

A flicker of humiliation flashed in the Qin Emperor's eyes, but it quickly vanished. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, struggled to rise, and continued to stride forward, speaking to the six figures in the sky.

"Seniors, in what way have I, Qin, erred? I am the ruler of Great Qin. I only kneel to heaven and earth and my ancestors. I ask for your forgiveness, but I cannot kneel at this time!"

"Presumptuous! You are but an ant, kneel when told!"

The woman shouted again, and instantly, a terrifying authority enveloped the Qin Emperor.

Crack, crack.

The Qin Emperor's bones began to shatter, and his body involuntarily bent, his legs buckling.

"Pfft!"

The Qin Emperor spat out another mouthful of blood, gritting his teeth to endure.

Cannot kneel!

"Kill!"

At the same time, in the Qin Palace, countless warriors appeared, their gazes filled with hostility as they looked at the six figures in the sky.

"Seeking death!"

A murderous glint flashed in the woman's eyes. Without a second thought, she struck out with her palm.

"Boom!"

As the numerous warriors in the Qin Palace were about to be destroyed by this palm strike, a sword light suddenly flew from afar, instantly shattering the woman's massive palm.

"Heavenly realm powerhouses must not kill innocents. Seniors of the Desolate Hall, this action has gone too far!"

Two figures flew over from the distance; they were Dao Xuan and Jian Chen.

Dao Xuan looked at the six figures in the sky, his expression somewhat grim. He clasped his fists and said.

"Seniors, the Qin Lord is the Emperor of Great Qin. The Supreme decreed that Emperors must not be killed or insulted."

"It is you! How dare you! You are also partly responsible for my son's death, so die!"

The woman shouted, her terrifying killing intent instantly sweeping across the sky. Wielding her long sword, she charged forward.

Dao Xuan and Jian Chen both looked solemn upon seeing this, preparing to engage. They hadn't expected the other party to be so frenzied, attacking without a word.

As the battle was about to commence, a man beside the woman intervened, stopping her.

"Jin Lian, no!"

"Get out of the way! My son was killed by these treacherous people, and I want to kill them!"

Jin Lian said through gritted teeth, her eyes crimson.

"I know your heart, but don't forget our true objective!"

The man said. He was Huang Wuya's father, Huang Mang.

"That's right, Madam Jin Lian. We are only here to capture those related to Li Xiaotian, not to start a war."

The Old Ancestor of the Divine Sect said. Although Dao Xuan and Jian Chen were both newly promoted to the Heavenly realm, the identities of the other two were not to be underestimated. One came from the Daoist sect, and the other from the Sword Pavilion.

Not to mention the one from the Sword Pavilion, whose ancestor was the current supreme powerhouse. If a fight broke out, they might die before they could kill Li Xiaotian.

"Hmph!"

The woman snorted coldly, casting a chilling glance at Dao Xuan and Jian Chen. She also understood these principles.

Dao Xuan and the two breathed a sigh of relief; they were truly a little afraid of this madwoman.

"Seniors, may I ask the purpose of your descent upon Great Qin this time?"

Dao Xuan asked. He and Jian Chen stood in front of the Qin Emperor, their intention clear: if they wanted to deal with the Qin Emperor, they would have to get past them first.

"Presumptuous! Do we need to explain our actions to you two juniors?"

Jin Lian said coldly, her face filled with anger.

"Jin Lian!"

Huang Mang frowned and shook his head slightly at Jin Lian.

"Hmph!"

Jin Lian snorted coldly and took a step back, saying no more.

"Two, we are here for revenge. Rest assured, we will not harm the Qin Lord. We only need him to hand over everyone in the Dragon King Hall who is related to Li Xiaotian, and we will leave."

Huang Mang said to Dao Xuan and the two, his tone filled with a threat.

"That's right, Li Xiaotian defied orders, was brutal and inhumane, and wantonly killed innocents. The people in his Dragon King Hall are all insidious and cunning. We are acting on behalf of heaven to kill these human scum."

The Old Ancestor of the Divine Sect also spoke, his eyes filled with killing intent.

"Heh! Twisted logic!"

Jian Chen snorted lightly upon hearing this, his eyes filled with mockery.

"Seniors, I think you might be mistaken. Li Xiaotian has contributed to humanity, helping to unify Yan Province. His Dragon King Hall has also rendered great service to humanity. What crime have they committed?"

Dao Xuan clasped his fists casually. Although everyone knew why the people from the Desolate Hall were looking for Li Xiaotian, such slander against Li Xiaotian and the Dragon King Hall, portraying themselves as righteous, was a bit too shameless!

"Heh heh, if we say they are guilty, they are guilty!"

The Old Ancestor of the Divine Sect sneered.

"That's right, they are guilty! They are sinners of humanity, and they all deserve to die!"

Jin Lian also chimed in.

"Two, we do not wish to be enemies with the Daoist sect and the Sword Pavilion, so it would be best for you two to step aside."

A powerhouse from the Desolate Hall warned coldly.

Dao Xuan and the two looked grim. This was too shameless.

"Qin Lord, hand over everyone in the Dragon King Hall, and everyone closely related to Li Xiaotian, and we will leave."

Huang Mang said to the Qin Emperor, his tone filled with threat.

"I'm sorry, seniors, they are all citizens of my Great Qin. I cannot obey."

The Qin Emperor said, his heart filled with anger. To think that Heavenly realm powerhouses would use ordinary people to threaten Li Xiaotian into appearing, it was too shameless.

"No, you must comply. This is the command of us six Heavenly realm powerhouses, and you cannot refuse!"

Huang Mang said coldly, his eyes hardening.

The other powerhouses also had killing intent in their eyes.

"Hand them over, and Great Qin will be safe. If you refuse, and war breaks out again, Great Qin will be thrown into chaos. Although we cannot intervene, we can grant our soldiers invincibility in battle, and everyone will possess Heavenly realm means to protect themselves and kill enemies!"

Huang Mang narrowed his eyes, saying that a war between mortals was one thing, and Heavenly realm powerhouses could not intervene, that was true.

But they could bestow means of survival and killing upon their own people.

At that time, Great Qin would be powerless to resist and would surely be defeated.

"Seniors, are you not afraid of damaging your noble reputation as powerhouses by acting in such a manner?"

The Qin Emperor gritted his teeth and asked, filled with righteous anger. This was simply bullying with power.

"Seniors, this action is a bit excessive. Do you know something? Huang Wuya once led all the people of the Desolate Hall to flee in the midst of battle, abandoning the allied forces of Yan Province. According to the rules of war, he should have been executed on the spot!"

Dao Xuan said unhurriedly, but as soon as he spoke, the temperature in the world instantly dropped.
