Chapter 123: Monster.

Edited by: Mochiusagi

Chang’an City.

Imperial Palace.

In the White Jade Square.

Ye Gucheng only saw the sword light come from somewhere deep in the Imperial Palace, and felt that his vision was completely overshadowed by it; everything became illusory, as if he’s in a dreamland.

[Crack~]

[Crack~]

The long sword in Ye Gucheng’s hand showed cracks and it continued spreading until it enveloped the whole sword.

“Brother Ye?”

Ximen Chuuxue’s eyes not far away shrank. He subconsciously moved towards Ye Gucheng and looked at where the other was looking at.

“What is that?”

But before Ximen Chuuxue could continue, the Sword Light had already arrived.

[Weng~]!

Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue’s thoughts began to fall as they sink into the boundless darkness.

At this moment, the Grade 1 Great Grandmasters in the White Jade Square watched as the two Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmasters that dominated them moments ago, dropped from the sky. They fell in the White Jade Square with their life or death unknown.

“This?”

The Grade 1 Great Grandmasters looked around, not knowing what to do.

They had thought about all the possibilities, but never did they expect even in their dreams such a thing to happen.

“Your Majesty…Your Majesty, what should we do now?”

The Vice Commander barely held back his shock. He looked towards Emperor Li Sheng and asked.

“Eunuch Liu, go take a look.”

Emperor Li Sheng thought for a moment and said immediately.

“Understood Your Majesty.” Eunuch Liu bowed slightly, then started moving towards where Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue fell.

Meanwhile, the other Grade 1 Great Grandmasters surrounded Emperor Li Sheng. In this way, even if Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue were just pretending, they could react quickly.

After a moment, Eunuch Liu hurried back. He moved towards Emperor Li Sheng and whispered: “Your Majesty, they are dead…”

“Dead?”

Emperor Li Sheng was silent.

The other Grade 1 Great Grandmasters were also equally stunned.

Two Sword Gods just died like this?

“Your Majesty, maybe it’s the Senior from two years ago?”

At this moment, the Commander suddenly thought of something and immediately whispered.

When he said this, Emperor Li Sheng’s thoughts turned rapidly.

Two years ago, Prince Chen colluded with the Southern Ming Empire and brought the two Peak Grade 1 Great Grandmasters in the City.

At that time, Emperor Li Sheng was desperate. But at the last moment, a zither sounded.

After the zither sounded, all of the enemies were dead, including the two Peak Grade 1s.

Emperor Li Sheng guessed that there might be a Master hiding in the Imperial Palace. But since he had never met this Master nor seen him, he could not confirm.

“Probably…”

Emperor Li Sheng said.

Although he doesn’t know why the Master saved the Tang Empire three, four times, nonetheless he obviously had great kindness towards the Tang Empire.

“Maybe it’s an Ancestor of the Empire?”

Emperor Li Sheng guessed.

The Tang Empire has been in existence for more than 500 years, so if there is actually an Ancestor hiding in the Palace, it would not be impossible.

“Okay.”

“You all retreat.”

Emperor Li Sheng pondered for a moment, then instructed.

“As you wish Your Majesty.”

The Grade 1 Great Grandmasters glanced at each other, still unable to conceal the shock in their hearts, and then retreated.

They originally thought that today was bound to be a hard battle, but they didn’t expect things to develop like this.

After this unexpected event, the Imperial Palace gradually calmed down.

The Martial Artists, who came to spectate, were all puzzled.

Although they couldn’t get close to the Imperial Palace, they could still feel the fluctuations coming from the Imperial Palace.

The fight between the two Sword Gods was enough to spread waves throughout Chang’an City, even if it’s just a casual exchange.

Hence they dare not expect to watch the battle between the two Sword Gods closely in the first place.

It was already their limit to enter Chang’an City. If they wanted to get close to the Imperial Palace, wasn’t that asking to become enemies with the Empire?

Moreover, even if the Tang Empire did let them enter the Imperial Palace to watch, would anyone dare to go?

These were two Peak Grade 1s fighting, one can just imagine the devastation and amount of power displayed during the battle, not to mention the aftermath which is for both to kill the overwhelming majority of the Martial Artists.

No one is willing to put their life and death on the line by being greedy and watching up close.

However, at this moment, the Martial Artists couldn’t understand why the aura emanating from the Imperial Palace only lasted for a moment, before it completely disappeared.

“What’s the matter?”

“Did Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue fight or not?”

“Is it possible that they lied to us? No, with Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue’s identities, they will fulfill their words…”

The Martial Artists began to discuss spiritedly, their tones puzzled.

At this moment, an old man with white hair and a beard stood up.

“Maybe Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue have already ended it.”

The old man is a Martial Artist in the Upper Realm, and he is quite prestigious. When he spoke, the Martial Artists around were quiet.

“What do you mean?”

A Martial Artist couldn’t help but ask.

The old man was silent for a while before uttering a sentence: “They may be here but whether they can actually fight or not is another matter…”

When he said this, the Martial Artists were surprised.

They all understood what the old man meant at this moment. Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue might have been suppressed by someone in the Imperial Palace at the moment they appeared, so they could not fight to begin with.

“There is a monster in the Tang Imperial Palace…”

The old man said.

The Martial Artists looked at each other, they were deeply shocked in their hearts.

…

…

Imperial Palace.

East Palace Right Spring Square.

After Su Qin sent the Sword Light, he no longer paid more attention to what was happening.

After all, the Sword Light he sent out, not to mention that Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue were Peak Grade 1, even a Grade 1 Great Perfection, cannot block it.

“After a year of hard work, I finally took a little step forward…”

Su Qin sat cross-legged, feeling the changes in his own aura.

Since Su Qin entered the 4th Heavenly Layer one year ago, even after taking a lot of treasures such as Innate Spirit Liquid, Blood Bodhi, Glazed Golden Core, etc., his strength improvement was still very slow.

But just now, he made a breakthrough.

If the 4th Heavenly Layer Arhat is divided into three levels, then Su Qin has entered the second level.

“Not bad.”

Su Qin slightly nodded and was quite satisfied.

Next, Su Qin slowly got up and walked out of the East Palace.
