Chapter Twenty-One
A lot of blood was splattered on the altar outside Chang'an City. A young man in a dragon robe lay silently on it. The blood on his body was flowing silently, his face was disbelief and there was no breath.
Under the altar, the officials of the Chang'an court could not believe that the situation was true. Even Yang Biao and Sima Fang, the heads of the two eight major families, felt caught off guard.
"Dong Zhuo...you! You actually killed Your Majesty, you were crazy!" Yang Biao's face turned pale, his lips began to tremble, and he couldn't help but shout.
Without the little emperor, the Chang'an court would have no righteousness. The princes of the world who were originally a little afraid of the Han royal family would have no scruples and could fight and annex everywhere for their own ambitions.
The moment the little emperor was killed, the world officially entered the situation of the princes fighting for hegemony, and the Hongnong Yang family was a few steps slower, and Yang Biao and Yang Xiu were trapped in Chang'an, especially Yang Xiu also joined Dong Zhuo's shogunate.
In the future, no matter who can unify the world by the princes of Guandong, their Yang family will inevitably be punished by liquidation. Yang Biao could have predicted the scene of the removal of the Hongnong Yang family from the eight major families in the world.
"Thief, I'll fight you!"
"Dong Thief, you cannot be lawless and murder Your Majesty. Today I am irreconcilable with you!"
Although the Han royal family was in decline, there were many loyal ministers in the Chang'an court. Some of these people were talents promoted by the Han royal family from poor families, and some had been trained in the Taixue and Hongdumen Schools before.
Their achievements in their cultivation today are all achieved by the royal family. So after seeing the emperor's death, a group of people suddenly surged. Some civil and military officials didn't care about their qi and magic power being sealed. Several generals roared, snatched swords and guns from the soldiers around them, and rushed towards Wang Mang who was standing on the altar.
"presumptuous!"
Zhang Xiu looked handsome and held a long spear in his hand. He did not go to see the scene on the altar, but shouted coldly. The long spear in his hand roared, and a red energy surged out.
Swish! The hot and powerful qi directly cut these generals into half. These people were originally in the realm of refining the gang, but their qi was sealed and was easily killed by Zhang Xiu with one move with only the strength of his body.
Zhang Xiu had just killed these generals, and suddenly bursts of thunder came from the sky, and dark clouds were shrouded rapidly, as if the heaven and earth were furious and were ready to descend the destructive thunder tribulation.
"Is this the sky furious?" Zhang Xiu's face suddenly showed a hint of shock. The emperor was the son of the sky. Not only did Dong Zhuo kill the little emperor, he also used the emperor's blood to sacrifice to the sky. This was an offense to the sky. Now the retribution has come.
With a rumbling sound, the earth began to tremble. With the sound of roar, countless thunders fell from the sky, leaving a charred pit on the ground. At this time, whether it was the officials of the Chang'an court or the many generals and strategists under Wang Mang, they were a little puzzled.
Wang Mang's expression changed slightly, and he laughed suddenly, urging his entire body's skills, and a black giant python appeared above the heavenly spirit. Then the giant python rolled back and forth, constantly transforming, and the less black air on his body was in each transformation. After a moment, the black giant python turned white.
"Hahaha, I have already practiced the White Emperor's mental method to a small achievement. As long as the seal is opened, I will be the White Emperor's son, the future heir of the White Emperor! The Five Emperors in the world are in charge of the five poles of the world. As the White Emperor's son, they can naturally affect the will of heaven! What can the mere punishment of heaven do to me?"
Wang Mang used all his thoughts, and the white giant python above the heavenly spirit kept trembling, releasing a mysterious force. After the white giant python spitted out this force, it dissipated a little half of it to the naked eye and became listless.
After this force appeared, the thunder that had originally arrived at the altar was affected by something, and somehow deviated. It fell on the ground next to the altar with a loud bang, and a huge deep pit was blasted out.
Seeing this, Wang Mang laughed again. However, seeing the pale face on his face and the abnormality of the giant python above the heavenly spirit, he knew that he had avoided the bombardment of heavenly thunder this time, which cost a lot.
"The sky has no eyes! Why didn't God kill Dong Zhuo, a traitor?" Seeing this scene, many civil and military officials in the Chang'an court looked disappointed.
At this moment, the sky suddenly turned red, as if the sky was dripping blood, giving people a feeling of extreme anxiety, but with the change of color in the sky, a strange energy began to spread throughout the world.
The laws of heaven and earth that were originally blurred and could not be understood at all became extremely clear at this moment. It was like a mirror full of water mist, which was suddenly wiped clean. Zhang Xiu, who had reached the late stage of refining the Gang, moved slightly. After a little operation, he felt that his cultivation speed was much stronger than before.
"The seal is really collapsed! The Prime Minister didn't lie to me!" Zhang Xiu suddenly felt excited. After experiencing the benefits of increasing his power and the possibility of breaking through the third level magical power realm, some of his guilt towards the little emperor disappeared immediately. If he was asked to choose again, he would also support Wang Mang's behavior.
...
Qingcheng Mountain in Shu. It is surrounded by mountains and steep mountains and smoke. A thatched hut is located at the top of the mountain. It is surrounded by green pines and strange rocks, and clouds and mists at its feet. The originally very ordinary thatched hut is set against the backdrop of the environment, like a master's residence in a fairyland outside the world.
In the hut, an old man in a loose Taoist robe was meditating and practicing. Suddenly, the world shook, and a roar of thunder came from outside. He suddenly opened his eyes, and a shocked expression surged from his originally calm face.
"I feel the law of Taiyin! Who broke the seal of heaven and earth?"
In an instant, the old man understood the reason why the thunder roared outside. After being shocked, he immediately meditated and practiced again. Taking advantage of the inspiration for contact with the laws of Taiyin just now, he began to break through his own cultivation bottleneck.
Swish, a large amount of the most yin energy surged into the mountain. After some residual souls in the forest absorbed these yin energy, their bodies gradually became solid and floated towards the top of the mountain.
If Zhang Lu from Hanzhong is here, he would instantly recognize that the old man was Li Yi, a senior master of Tianshidao, who practiced the secret martial arts of Tianshidao and the Five Ghosts Heavenly Yin Technique.
Not only Qingcheng in Shu, but also Taiyuan City in Bingzhou, Shouchun in Jiangdong, Chenguo in Yuzhou, Liaodong County in Youzhou, Xiangyang City in Jingzhou... The peerless powerful people who have reached the ninth level of soul refining and the ninth level of Gang refining all over the world have taken this opportunity to start a breakthrough.
