C127 Japanese Empire

"Looks like the opening of the ancient ruins this time around has really attracted the attention of other empires."

Looking at the middle-aged man who had stopped breathing, Qin Shaojie's voice also became slightly gloomy. In the end, this middle-aged man still could not endure the fear in his heart and informed Qin Shaojie of his purpose for coming here.

Although he would not be able to escape death, at the very least, he would not suffer and suffer in the process.

Japanese Empire?

Qin Shaojie frowned when he heard the name. It was obvious that he was not unfamiliar with the Sun Moon Empire, and even the entire Great Yan Dynasty was not unfamiliar with it.

Rumor has it that the Japanese Empire was extremely weak in the early stages of the founding of the, and that she was constantly bullied by the neighbouring countries. If it were not for the sect's warning to keep him alive, the Japanese Empire would have long turned into a pile of dust in history. She knew that one day, the Japanese Empire had obtained an ancient ruin and independently developed it. Only then did she change the fate of the entire Dman Empire.

The current Japanese Empire could be said to be in the middle of the sky. Her strength was far beyond what the current Great Yan Dynasty could compare with. If one were to say that Earth Origin Stage was already the peak of the Great Yan Dynasty, then there would be many life and death realm experts in the Japanese Empire.

Whether it was in terms of the number and quality of warriors, the Japanese Empire and the current Great Yan Dynasty were not on the same level. All these years, not only the Great Yan Dynasty, but even the surrounding empires had tried their best to avoid directly clashing with the Japanese Empire. After all, the current Japanese Empire was ranked in the top ten in strength among the several dozen empires attached to the sect. Naturally, it was quite terrifying.

This dynasty, which the Great Yan Dynasty had no time to avoid, had actually chose to enter at this time.

Moreover, the goal was quite clear, and that was the Holy Flame Academy's ancient ruins.

It was clear that this was because no one knew the importance of an ancient ruin to a empire better than the Japanese Empire. If used appropriately, it could even cause a dynasty to rise to prominence. He could even become an existence similar to a sect.

Within the Nine Domains, there were countless sects, some of which had grown up in dynasties.

An ancient ruin was not enough for the Japanese Empire to truly have wings like a giant, but if he could take the ancient ruins of the Holy Flame Academy for his own, then there were only two things to do.

Thinking up to here, Qin Shaojie's eyes also flickered with some other light. Initially, he did not want to get involved in these matters. After all, what he sought after was not the so-called sects within the dynasty. His rebirth in this life allowed him to have a clearer goal. This was also why even if Qin Mai had specially gone to look for Qin Shaojie, he did not care about it at all.

If it was his previous personality, how could he care about such things?

After all, the victor was the king and the loser was the bandit. Everyone understood the principle of the law of the jungle. This was also the true reason why the Ancient God Continent was able to prosper for so long. There was no way to improve without competition, and even the Nine Domains s and the three great sects were very clear about this. Therefore, this sort of battle in the mortal world was something that those people wanted to see and even intentionally push for.

There was no problem for the Japanese Empire to covet the ancient ruins and attempt to become the source of power for the strong existences inside the sect.

But Qin Shaojie had no choice but to admit that there had been some changes in his attitude. He had promised Qin Mai a few things, which meant that it was impossible for him to truly leave Japanese Empire's side. Furthermore, it was impossible to pretend to be completely emotionless towards the Holy Flame Academy herself. There were a few members that operated their own forces there, as well as his own instructor. Most importantly, Qin Shaojie still needed to use the True Martial Tower's nature profound energy to temper his own consciousness, and repair it further.

No matter which side the reason was for, it was very clear that the Japanese Empire would not just sit there and wait for death to happen.

"If the Dilman Empire really were to forcefully invade a large area and try to snatch the ancient ruins, the current Great Yan Dynasty would definitely not be able to resist."

Thinking about it, Qin Shaojie also had a headache. From the analysis of the extermination of the population, the current Japanese Empire was only the beginning of the plan. Once the ancient ruins were truly opened, the Japanese Empire would definitely take action.

As long as they managed to gather enough people, they would be able to brazenly enter the ancient ruins. With the strength of the Japanese Empire, even according to the requirements and rules of the Holy Flame Academy, the strength of the people they entered would probably far surpass the strength of the other disciples of the Great Yan Dynasty.

In addition, because these people all had the same goal and the same background, it was easier for them to act together. At that time, as long as they could kill all the other Great Yan Dynasty's people in the Ancient Ruins, they would have enough time and energy to take away all the treasures in the Ancient Ruins. If there were more things that could be found in the Ancient Ruins, it would be enough for them to inform the Japanese Empire of all the details in the Ancient Ruins.

But no matter what kind of situation it was, the appearance of the Japanese Empire was enough to explain the crisis that the Great Yan Dynasty was in.

Hu hu hu hu!

This person was Three Spiritual Realms, and one could tell that he was not a real expert sent by the Japanese Empire. But from this, it could be seen how much importance the Japanese Empire placed on the opening of the ancient ruins this time. He thought that the gathering of tokens would be fought over among the younger generation, but now it seemed that this situation might be broken by the Japanese Empire.

As long as one had the strength and the opportunity, it was likely that anyone would break this rule. All they wanted was to snatch the Assembly Token and give it to the powerful individuals from the younger generation to participate.

If that was the case, then the stronger the sect or clan, the higher the possibility of obtaining the Assembly Medallion!

This Japanese Empire was really calculating. If that was truly the case, then this time, the Holy Flame Academy had truly become someone else's concubine.

Perhaps other people did not know, but Qin Shaojie understood best, that the real goal of the current Holy Flame Academy was to protect the Heaven and Earth profound veins below the Earth. However, if the people from the Japanese Empire stayed inside for a period of time, it would be impossible for the profound veins to not be discovered.

After Qin Shaojie plundered all the valuable treasures from the middle-aged man's body, a clump of profound fire directly fell onto his body. After a few breaths of time, under the scorching profound fire, the body was turned into ashes. This person, was most likely the first person in the Great Yan Dynasty that was killed.

Even if it was him or the Japanese Empire, there was no relationship between him and the ancient ruins, but Qin Shaojie would definitely not let him live. His own Black Scorpion Man's Corpse Puppet was a true life-saving card. In the ancient ruins, whether or not it could survive was an extremely important thing.

Unfortunately, this middle-aged man didn't have any Assembly Badge, otherwise, he would have had quite a harvest this time.

But from the man's last words, Qin Shaojie was sure that the people from Japanese Empire had already obtained a few gathering tokens, so the efficiency and methods must be really high.

"I'm afraid that this time, the Great Yan Dynasty will become more lively." Ye Zichen let out a soft sigh. There were some things that couldn't be avoided.

But Qin Shaojie was not worried about himself, with the corpse puppet, he could not cause any harm under the Earth Origin Stage. Now, if one were to say that they were worried, it would be the Holy Flame Academy.

Raising his head to look at the sky, Qin Shaojie's expression also became somewhat responsible.

In his previous life, he had lived a free and unfettered life. Everything had been according to his preferences and his heart. However, in this life, even he himself did not notice the tremendous change in his state of mind. It was as if he was hesitating, as though he was being held back.

No one knew whether this state was good or bad, but Qin Shaojie didn't care, nor did he bother to think about it. If this life was the same as his previous one, then what would be the point?

"It's best not to let me meet anyone from the Japanese Empire. Otherwise, I can only meet one person and kill one person."

Xiao Yan's eyes narrowed as a faint killing intent shot out. After that, Qin Shaojie changed his hand seals and the corpse puppet behind him turned into a ray of light and disappeared from the valley.

The corpse puppet was not a living being, so Qin Shaojie's spatial ring was still able to contain it.

Otherwise, if he let her follow him in broad daylight, it would attract a lot of attention.

Who else would know of the corpse puppet's existence other than himself? At that time, even if they were caught off guard and released the corpse puppet, even if they did not use their Earth Origin Stage, they would still be severely injured or even killed.

Qin Shaojie looked around at the shattered canyon, his face darkened. He then retracted his aura and rushed out of the Taihang Mountains.

Now that the aura of the Black Scorpion Man's corpse puppet was gone, the beasts would probably come one after another. If they did not leave now, it would be troublesome if they left.

Not long after Qin Shaojie left, quite a few experts from the Lingyun City and the Fengdu City secretly sent out many experts, rushing towards the Taihang Mountains where a huge commotion had occurred last night.

Clearly, even they felt that this commotion was rather strange.

But unfortunately, in this world, perhaps only Qin Shaojie knew what had happened last night.
