Ning Hong's soul was floating in the void, his expression extremely frightened.
"No……"
Before he could continue to beg for mercy, the extremely cold Taiyin power had already exploded within his soul, but in an instant, his soul was destroyed into nothingness by the Taiyin power.
"Chen Che! You are simply lawless!"
An angry shout came from the distance, followed by a large square seal that smashed towards this direction at a high speed with the force of destroying the heaven and earth.
The Qi giant transformed by Chen Che raised his head when he saw this, and then punched out.
Boom!
With a shocking loud noise, the big seal was smashed back. At the same time, the arm of the Qi Giant was also shaken away on the spot.
After the shock wave dissipated, several figures appeared in the sky not far away.
The leader was none other than Emperor Qin.
Behind him were six other martial saints from Great Qin besides Qin Ying and Ning Hong.
Everyone looked at the place where Ning Hong died with different expressions.
Emperor Qin's face was gloomy and his eyes were flickering.
Luo Tian, the Taoist master of Linghe Dao, had an angry look on his face, and the big seal that had just been knocked back by Chen Che's punch was floating next to him.
Lu Sheng and the other three martial saints looked shocked, as if they couldn't believe it.
"His Majesty."
Chen Che dismissed Liuli's true form, and then gave a slight salute to Emperor Qin.
Seeing this, Emperor Qin took a deep breath, and then asked in a deep voice: "Chen Che, didn't I tell you to stop? What's going on with you?"
"Ning Hong colluded with Yan Dragon King Yan Yan to harm me. The evidence is conclusive. I just did what I should do.
Moreover, Your Majesty, didn’t you say before that if you find anyone colluding with the demon clan, you will kill them without mercy?”
Chen Che said neither humble nor arrogantly.
Emperor Qin was speechless when he heard this.
Before this battle, he did ask Chen Che to investigate the matter of warriors within Da Qin colluding with the demon clan and cheating on others.
But the reason why he did this was to induce Chen Che to leave and stay away from the whirlpool of disputes.
Now that it's fine, Chen Che directly blocks him with his orders, and he can't say anything.
If you think about it carefully, Chen Che was probably thinking of ways to dig a hole for him at that time.
"Chen Che! Although there is something wrong with Ning Hong! But after all, he is the Martial Saint of our Great Qin!
Now our country, Great Qin, is at war with the Demon Kingdom. Do you know what it means to lose a Martial Saint?
Or are you saying that you are a warrior of Great Xia, so you don’t care about winning or losing this war or the fate of Great Qin?”
Luo Tian shouted angrily.
His words were already heartbreaking words for Chen Che.
But Chen Che's expression remained calm.
"So I killed the Flame Dragon King first.
If I am unable to kill a demon king, then I will naturally not attack Ning Hong."
After saying that, Chen Che ignored Luo Tian and turned to look at Emperor Qin.
"Your Majesty, I did do something wrong in this matter. Please punish me."
Emperor Qin's eyes twitched slightly when he heard this.
Punishment?
How to punish?
You can't trade your life for a life, right?
Great Qin has already lost a Martial Saint, and it cannot afford to lose another one.
As for other punishments, they are nothing to the strong Martial Saint.
Chen Che probably knew this, so he dared to act so recklessly...
This style of conduct is somewhat similar to that of Ning Hong before.
Didn't Ning Hong act recklessly before because he was a Martial Saint and there was no way that Da Qin would be in trouble?
The result was good, others used similar tactics to kill him.
I have to say, this is really karma, and it works every time.
"His Majesty!"
Luo Tian's face became increasingly ugly.
Didn't he know that Emperor Qin couldn't possibly do anything to Chen Che, but no matter what, Chen Che killed their souls
There is a martial saint in Hedao!
If he just lets Chen Che go, how will he become the master of Linghe Road in the future?
How to explain to the warriors of Linghe Road?
"Chen Che, you can go back and confine yourself.
As for how to punish you, I'll wait until I finish taking care of things here."
Emperor Qin waved his hand and said with a troubled expression.
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have resigned."
Speaking of this, Chen Che suddenly thought of something, and immediately took out a ball bead from his arms and sent it to Emperor Qin.
"Your Majesty, this is Yan Yan's divine weapon. Please give it to my master.
Just say that this disciple has vented his anger on behalf of the old man."
Emperor Qin looked at the round bead with extremely complicated eyes.
Chen Che killed two Martial Saint-level experts in a row. This achievement was truly terrifying.
Although he is only a first-level Heavenly Martial Saint, he cannot be treated like an ordinary first-level Heavenly Martial Saint.
"well……"
Emperor Qin sighed softly in his heart.
Originally, the Demon Kingdom lost a Demon King, which was a rare and good situation for Great Qin.
Now, Chen Che has killed Ning Hong, and the situation has suddenly become much more complicated.
As for how to deal with it later, he really couldn't think of it for a while.
Seeing Chen Che turning around and leaving, Luo Tian looked extremely angry, but had no choice but to say to Emperor Qin: "Your Majesty, please go down and deal with Ning Hong's matter, and then leave first."
With that said, Luo Tian flew directly towards the location of the Hanging Island.
Lu Sheng had already regained his composure at this time.
Chen Che killed Ning Hong, which was not bad news for him. At least after this incident, Linghe Road and the imperial court would no longer be monolithic.
"Your Majesty, I also have some things to deal with..."
"Go ahead..."
Emperor Qin waved his hand impatiently.
Lu Sheng chuckled lightly, and then left with the other two martial saints of Xuanxin Dao.
Not long after, only Emperor Qin and Lin Sheng were left in the same place.
"Your Majesty...Chen Che is young after all. It is normal for this young man to be a little angry...
And no matter what, he killed Yan Yan after all.
The merits and demerits are almost equal..."
Lin Sheng comforted in a low voice.
After a pause, he added: "Also, Ning Hong did go too far. He was killed by Chen Che, which is considered worthy of his punishment."
"Okay, stop talking, I just want to be quiet now."
Emperor Qin waved his hand and said.
…
the other side.
Chen Che returned to the Fengyi Army camp first.
At this time, the news of him killing Ning Hong had completely spread.
Luo Ning was both happy and worried when he saw Chen Che returning.
In the past ten years or so, Ning Hong has inflicted too much pain on Fengyi League.
I don’t know how many people died because of Ning Hong…
It can be said that people in the Fengyi League dream about Ning Hong's death.
But Chen Che really killed Ning Hong, so he couldn't help but feel worried.
After all, he was a martial saint.
Over the years in Great Qin, only a few martial saints have been born.
"Alliance leader..."
Luo Ning hesitated to speak. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know where to start.
Chen Che said with a faint smile: "Now that Yan Yan and Ning Hong are dead, if Senior Nie is alive in heaven, he can rest in peace.
Okay, this matter is over. Now that the camp ban has been lifted, everyone can do whatever they need to do. I’m going back to Zhenyuan City.”
After Chen Che said that, he immediately jumped into the air and flew towards Zhenyuan City.
In this battle, he killed Yan Yan and Ning Hong, a great scourge. It was considered a complete achievement. It was not in vain that he had hidden his cultivation for so long.
…
After returning to Zhenyuan City, Chen Che
Continue to practice in retreat.
After entering the realm of Martial Saint, the progress of cultivation is extremely slow.
Most martial saints stay in the realm of the first level of heaven throughout their lives.
If you want to step into the second heaven, you must have a heaven-defying opportunity.
Back then, he had talked with his master Qin Ying about several martial saints in Great Qin.
Among the nine great martial saints of the Qin Dynasty, only Lu Sheng and Emperor Qin are second-level heavenly martial saints.
The reason why they were able to enter the Second Heaven Realm was not because their talents were better than other Martial Saints, but because they had entered the Xuantian Secret Realm and obtained precious heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
"Do you want to activate the ultimate high-pressure state?"
Hearing the prompt in his mind, Chen Che subconsciously responded: "Turn it on."
As soon as these words came out, he immediately entered the ultimate high-pressure state.
In this state, although his progress in cultivation is still slow, at least he is making progress.
In other words, as long as he can activate the ultimate high-pressure state, sooner or later he will be able to step into the second-level realm of the Martial Saint.
"If you want to always activate the ultimate high-pressure state, you must obtain high-level energy."
Chen Che said to himself.
There are two main sources of energy that can enable the Devouring Bottle to activate its ultimate high-pressure state.
The first one is the top elixir.
There are too few of these elixirs, and it is unrealistic to obtain them in large quantities.
The second type is the mutated warrior soul.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but think of those mutated warriors who didn't know where they were running.
I don’t know where those mutant warriors are hiding now?
…
Time passes day by day.
Three days flew by.
Chen Che stayed in the Zhenyuan City training room for three full days.
After three days of spreading and fermenting, the news that he stepped into the realm of the Martial Saint and killed the Flame Dragon King and Ning Hong spread almost throughout the entire Great Qin.
All the warriors of Great Qin knew that the tenth Martial Saint was born in Great Qin.
It's just that the tenth Martial Saint soon became the ninth.
Since Chen Che practiced Taiyin Scripture, the outside world naturally gave Chen Che the title of "Taiyin Martial Saint".
Killing two saints in one day, Taiyin Martial Saint Chen Che quickly became the most discussed figure in Da Qin.
In the evening of this day, a warrior dressed in black came to the city lord's palace.
"Master Taiyin Martial Saint, your Majesty has a decree to deliver."….
After the black-clothed warrior entered the city lord's mansion, he faced the direction of the training room with great respect.
After entering the realm of Martial Saint, his status in Da Qin will be qualitatively improved.
Let alone ordinary officials, even princes and princes cannot compare with the powerful martial saints in terms of status.
Squeak...
With a soft sound, the door of the training room was pushed open, and Chen Che walked out with a blank look on his face.
When the warrior in black saw Chen Che, his expression became extremely cautious.
After all, the man in front of me is a terrifying evil star who can destroy two saints in one day.
in addition……
He didn't come today to deliver any good news.
"Master Taiyin Martial Saint... Your Majesty said that although Ning Hong made a big mistake, his crime was not worthy of death. You killed him rashly and you must accept the punishment. Otherwise, Your Majesty will find it difficult to convince the public."
As he spoke, the warrior in black took out an imperial edict made of brocade.
"From today on, Chen Che will be relieved of his position as the city lord of Zhenyuan City..."
After a while, the warrior in black recited the punishment measures over and over again.
Generally speaking, they are divided into two types.
The first is to remove Chen Che from various positions.
The second is to compensate Linghe Road.
The amount of compensation could almost bankrupt Chen Che.
But he didn't really care.
After entering the realm of the Martial Saint, many of the things outside of him are no longer of any help to him, so if they are given away, they will be given away.
"Master Taiyin Martial Saint, the above is your Majesty's punishment for you.
In addition, His Majesty also asked you to be grounded in Zhenyuan City for one month.
After the confinement is over, I will hand over the position of city lord."
The black-clothed warrior said with great respect.
"I understand, it's time to work."
Chen Che replied casually.
The black-clothed warrior breathed a sigh of relief, and then said, "The villain will leave now."
…
After the black-clothed warrior left, Chen Che called Ling Wei over to deal with the compensation matter.
After the compensation is paid, the matter will be settled.
As for whether Luo Tian secretly held grudges, Chen Che didn't know.
But no matter what, it's at least back to normal on the surface.
As time went by, the name of Taiyin Martial Saint began to spread outside the Qin Dynasty.
Great Zhou, and even the powerful men from the barbarian tribes all knew that the tenth Martial Saint was born in Great Qin, and that this Martial Saint entered the realm of Martial Saint by practicing the Taiyin Scripture.
Not long after the news spread, an endless stream of people began to arrive in front of the Lord's Mansion in Zhenyuan City.
Almost all the martial saints in Dazhou sent people to send a generous gift.
In addition, independent cities such as Lingxi City and Shenwei City also sent a lot of things.
After Chen Che was lifted from the ban, forces from various regions within Da Qin also sent congratulatory gifts.
Although he did not hold the Martial Saint Ceremony, it did not stop countless people from wanting to show their face in front of him, the newly promoted Martial Saint.
In just a few days, the resources he compensated to Linghe Road were quickly replenished by receiving gifts.
