Chapter 626 Demonic Qi Tao Tao

"You… you…" The voice of inviting Mr. Lu to his death echoed in Mr. Lu's ears.

"I ended decades of famine in Great Zhou, I stabilized the situation in Great Zhou … It was because of me that you all came to this day!!!" The expression on the old man's face gradually became ferocious, and his tone also became loud, "Without me, you would have died of famine or fallen under the Great Xia cavalry! You wolf-hearted, dog-lungs, and dog-lungs!"

Whoosh!

Just as the old man muttered this to himself, a golden sword image suddenly flew out and landed under Mr. Lu's feet.

"Sir, why bother to decline your request?" Xu Han stepped forward and smiled.

Mr. Lu's body trembled. He looked at the golden sword shadow on the ground, and then at the expectant gazes on the faces of the soldiers behind him. The brilliance in his eyes suddenly dimmed at that moment. He lowered his body trembling and stretched out his hand to pick up the golden sword shadow, slowly placing it on his neck.

Seeing this scene, Xu Han smiled even more. He stretched out his hand and said calmly, "Sir, please."

Mr. Lu's hands, which were holding the sword shadow, began to tremble, and his knuckles began to turn white.

Suicide required a lot of courage, but Mr. Lu seemed to be a little short. He stood in this position for a long time, but he was still unable to cut his throat with the golden sword shadow.

"Sir, do you want me to help you?" Xu Han asked again, his tone full of ridicule.

Mr. Lu did not say anything, but Xu Han smiled and stretched out his hand, as if he really wanted to help the old man finish this "eternal fragrance".

Mr. Lu watched as Xu Han's hand got closer and closer. His body trembled even more violently. That was the hand that declared him dead. That was the bell from hell.

Mr. Lu once believed in the doctrine that a man should die and the world should be peaceful, but when he became the one who was about to die, the fear in his heart drowned him like a tidal wave.

He could no longer contain this fear. He let out a mournful howl, and his hand that held the sword suddenly turned and stabbed straight at Xu Han.

Xu Han had already expected this. He stretched out his hand and shook slightly. He flicked his finger at the golden sword shadow. Even if he used less than a thousandth of his strength, it was still far from something a scholar like Mr. Lu could withstand.

The golden sword shadow in his hand came out and flew high up. Ling Lie's sword qi cut open the hairpin on Mr. Lu's head, and Mr. Lu was also shaken by the force from the sword body. He retreated abruptly and sat on the ground.

"So Teacher doesn't want to die?" Xu Han looked at Mr. Lu, who had messy hair and an awkward expression.

'"I… I…" Mr. Lu, who was lying on the ground, muttered to himself. His hand was struggling to feel the ground, as if he wanted to grab the falling sword shadow. "I can't die. If I die, there's nothing left."

"I have to live. I want to petition for life. I want to plan for His Majesty. I want…"

Xu Han looked at the old man whose expression became even crazier. With his cultivation at the Immortal Realm, he could naturally tell that the vast righteous energy in the old man's body was rapidly dissipating.

The Confucian scholar was different from any other cultivator in that his cultivation and state of mind were different. Once his state of mind was broken, the Nature Energy would disappear completely. It was obvious that Mr. Lu was in such a state at this moment.

Xu Han looked at him, his interest suddenly dimming. At that moment, his hand opened, and the three thousand golden sword shadows above his head scattered. At this moment, the pitch black sword also disappeared into the wooden box behind Xu Han.

"Your lives are saved." Xu Han said softly.

In the end, he did not take Mr. Lu's life, because at this moment, Mr. Lu's cultivation had completely dispersed, waiting for his fate to be doomed to be even more miserable than death.

Hearing Xu Han's words, he stood up madly. He kowtowed to Xu Han continuously and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. I will go and expose evil intentions for Your Majesty and kill Xu Han!"

Then, he turned around and walked out of Pu Tian Palace with crooked steps. He kept muttering, "I will do my best and die."

"I will serve His Majesty's imperial edict to crush the usurpers. All of you, come with me."

"Eh… Why aren't you all moving?"

"Oh? You are all disorderly parties. It doesn't matter, Your Majesty. Don't worry, I'll go gather the old tribe now. I'm sure…"

The old man murmured with a mad expression, and his back finally disappeared from everyone's sight in this murmur.

Xu Han watched the old man leave for a long time. He withdrew his gaze. In the end, he did not stop the other party from leaving. His state of mind was broken, his cultivation base dispersed, and his mind went crazy. At this moment, Mr. Lu had already become a cripple. It was not hard to predict how he would spend the rest of his life. To him, such a result was a cruel punishment that was even more cruel than death.

After that, Xu Han walked to Yuwen Nan Jing's side and turned to look at Zhu Xian, who hadn't uttered a single sound since he appeared. His gaze stopped on Zhu Xian for a while, then passed Zhu Xian and landed on the green-clothed woman behind him.

"Our private grievances are over. It's time for us to talk about business."

Hearing this, Zhu Xian instinctively wanted to speak, but before he could say anything, the azure figure behind him stepped out and walked in front of him. Zhu Xian was slightly stunned, but he still kept quiet very consciously.

It had been a year and a half since Xu Han left Chang'an, but Ran Qingyi was still so bright and moving. Although Chu Chouli said that Ran Qingyi was the same age as him, Xu Han still found it hard to believe that the woman in front of him was the same age as the middle-aged man with a beard that described him as sloppy.

"Young Master Xu, what do you want to talk to me about?" Ran Qingyi smiled faintly at Xu Han and asked softly.

"Liu Mo, Liu Xiao, Xia Zichuan, and Xia Lincheng. I want to take these four away." Xu Han said in a deep voice, but he didn't have the slightest leisure to admire Ran Qingyi's beautiful appearance.

Hearing this, Ran Qingyi smiled again. She said, "Lu Ming Ye is a very self-righteous person. He is trying to bully the world and steal fame, but at the same time, he wants to preserve this reputation. Dark Asura Palace, um, I, Da Chu, don't like this kind of guy. Using him is just an expedient measure. Now that he has lost his purpose, Young Master Xu wants to kill him, we are naturally happy to see him succeed."

"But Young Master Xu, do you think that you alone can intimidate our Great Chu Dynasty into submission?"

After Ran Qingyi finished speaking, more than ten figures walked out from behind her. Those figures were young boys and girls ranging in age from thirteen or fourteen to seventeen or eighteen. Their eyes were filled with coldness and indifference that did not match their age, while the aura emanating from their bodies was incomparably vast.

"Holy Son?" Xu Han sensed the identity of this group of young boys and girls. Although Xu Han was a little surprised that the other party could bring such a large number of Holy Sons, he did not show too much surprise. He only raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Does Lord Ran think that they can stop me by themselves?"

"Of course not with them." Ran Qingyi narrowed her eyes and said.

As soon as these words were said, dozens of white-clothed young men and girls stepped forward. Without exception, the bodies of these young men and girls all reached the formidable aura that only the Saint Son possessed.

"If Young Master Xu feels that it isn't enough, we still have more." Ran Qingyi clapped her hands. Suddenly, the sound of air breaking came from all over the palace. Then, nearly a hundred young boys and girls flew down from all over the palace, as if they had surrounded Xu Hantuo.

Xu Han was shocked.

These Saint Sons usually had the power to surpass ordinary Great Evolution Realm experts. Once they were sanctified, they could even rival half-step Immortal Realm experts. With such a large number of bodies, even Xu Han felt his scalp go numb.

"Young Master Xu wants to leave, but we can't stop him, and we don't want to stop him. However, Young Master Xu's lover has to stay. This is the bottom line of my Great Chu." Ran Qingyi's words clearly did not leave any room for Xu Han to discuss.

Xu Han finally came to his senses. The Dark Asura Palace's influence in Great Xia had only infiltrated Great Xia after Cui Tingbing had defeated Big Yellow City two years ago. Over the years, the interior of Great Zhou had long since been devoured by Dark Asura Palace. In a sense, Great Zhou was the true headquarters of Dark Asura Palace, so it wasn't surprising that he had so many Saint Sons.

What truly frightened Xu Han was that since Senluo Palace had taken the step of overthrowing Yuwen Nanjing, it meant that this colossus that had been hiding in the shadows of Great Zhou for decades or even centuries was finally ready to surface. It was definitely something even more terrifying than the Death Chu that possessed the three continents of Great Xia.

The two echoed from afar, and half of the world had already fallen into their hands.

Thinking of this, Xu Han couldn't help but have an ugly expression on his face and gloomy eyebrows.

"Young Master Xu, do you understand? If you are reluctant to part with this beautiful woman, we can give you ten breaths of time to say goodbye to her." Looking at Xu Han's current appearance, Ran Qingyi naturally became more and more certain of her thoughts. She said again.

"Young Master Xu, you can leave. I'm already satisfied to see you again. Leave this place to me." Yuwen Nanjing also pulled up Xu Han's clothes and said resolutely.

Xu Han looked at the determination in the girl's eyes and nodded.

"Yes, I will leave."

"But …"

"I'm going with you!"

After Xu Han finished speaking, his body once again turned towards the direction Ran Qingyi and the others were in. His eyes narrowed and the wooden box on his back was pulled out by him at that time, fiercely smashing onto the ground.

Seeing this, Ran Qingyi and the others felt their hearts tremble, and they all thought to themselves that it was not good. Then, they hurriedly put on airs and prepared to welcome Xu Han's brazen killing move.

At this moment, Xu Han was pressing down on the wooden box with one hand. His gaze was cold, and the aura around him surged.

Then…

Then, a deathly silence fell in front of Wei Yang Palace.

Xu Han maintained this posture for about four to five breaths of time. Everyone around him looked at Xu Han with serious expressions, but they discovered that nothing had happened. Everyone's gazes at Xu Han suddenly became suspicious, and Ran Qingyi's face twitched. After a long while, she asked with uncertainty, "Young Master Xu … Are you trying to scare us to death?"

"Cough cough." An embarrassing expression appeared on Xu Han's face as he maintained this posture. He coughed dryly and could only helplessly shout towards the horizon, "Xuan'er!"

Seeing this, everyone thought that Xu Han was going to take action this time, so they had no choice but to put on airs again.

"Miao." However, at this moment, a black cat fell from the eaves of Wei Yang Palace and jumped onto Xu Han's wooden box on the ground. It opened its amber eyes wide and tilted its head to look at Xu Han.

"No" Looking at Xuan'er in front of him, Xu Han supported his forehead and helplessly wanted to say something.

"Young Master Xu is in the mood to play with us. Why don't you come back to Dark Asura Palace with me and have a chat?" A wisp of anger appeared in Ran Qingyi's calm eyes. In her eyes, Xu Han's actions were tantamount to fooling them.

As soon as she finished her words, the surrounding Saint Sons acted as if they had received an edict. They all put on airs and threatened to rush towards Xu Han.

Seeing this, Xu Han was immediately shocked. He hurriedly danced towards Xuan'er and said, "I told you to call that guy out, not let you out!"

Xuan'er tilted her head and looked at Xu Han for a while. Suddenly, an amber light lit up in her eyes. It seemed to understand what Xu Han meant. She raised her head and shouted towards the sky, "Meow!"

With a long howl, another yellow figure jumped out from the eaves of the Wei Yang Palace that it had just jumped out of.

Roar!

The figure let out an explosive shout. His seemingly light body continued to grow larger as he fell. In the blink of an eye, he transformed into a giant ape that was fifty feet in size. He carried a demonic aura that filled the sky as he fiercely clenched his fists at them under the astonished gazes of everyone present.
