“Is this all you’ve got, Empress of Great Zhou’s lapdog?”

In the void, overlapping demon shadows swirled around Lin Shihuang.

A vivid black dragon shadow cradled him from behind, setting off a terrifying wave of demonic might. With a ‘boom’, the youth in white, who was controlling a river of sword qi, was knocked flying back.

He spit out a mouthful of bright red blood, his complexion now paler than before.

The river of sword qi dispersed, leaving a deep mark among the white clouds in the sky.

“Commander Gu!”

Upon seeing this, the lady in the green shirt screamed, sensing something bad was about to happen.

The Demon Cultivator from the Seven Deadly Sins Demonic Sect seemed extremely strong. If they continued like this, they would likely perish in Capital City.

Neither she nor any of the other Golden Core Realm cultivators could stand against Lin Shihuang just now.

Se??ch ?ew?o?e? / o?g o? ?oo?l?

Their only hope was that the Immortal Gate Daoist beside the Empress would step in – every Daoist weapon possessed incredible power!

“Whoever blocks my path shall die!”

Lin Shihuang declared impassively. The purpose of his journey was clear – to target the Empress of Great Zhou, dethrone her, and restore the rightful imperial lineage.

Furthermore, the Demonic Sect had nurtured him and expended a great deal of resources to set up this plan, targeting the Immortal Gate’s rule over the mortal world that had remained unchanged for a thousand years.

As a Demon Cultivator, this was his mission.

If he wished to reach higher realms and seek Immortal Dao in the future, he would have to overcome his Heart Demon first.

The lady in the green shirt furrowed her brows, drawing out a simple and ancient War Sword from the necklace around her clavicle. The sword’s edge was cold to the touch and crystalline white. As soon as it appeared in mid-air white frost began to rise.

Upon seeing the sword in her hand, Lin Shihuang squinted his eyes- “The immortal Sword Cold Waterfall, one of the ancient Eight Swords. You turned out to be the eldest princess of the Gold Crow Kingdom, Bai Qiufu.”

AS soon as Bai Qiufu unsheathed her sword, Lin Shihuang disappeared from his original spot, transforming into a gust of wind rushing towards her.

The green hill blade, when compared to the height of the demon qi black dragon, appeared very small. Nearly everyone’s gaze was fixed on Bai Qiufu’s Immortal Sword.

Hum!

The edge of the sword shook slightly, and ice light blossomed.

The opposing forces were locked in a standoff. The air vibrated, a wild wind egan to blow, and the area for several miles around was instantly turned into a snowy landscape.

“Immortal Sword…”

The man in white below was not yet dead. When he looked at Bai Qiufu his eyes were filled with envy.

The heritage of the Eight Ancient Swords had a long history. Every owner of an Immortal Sword was a well-known sword immortal, whose reputation shook the kingdoms of Central Earth. If he had an Immortal Artifact in hand he would be confident of defeating any opponent of the same realm.

Yet, the Immortal Sword chose its master. Brazen theft would bear no fruit

Those with ability were naturally entitled to ownership.

“Shoo!”

Suddenly, a multitude of rainbow lights pierced down towards the center of the imperial city from the sky above.

Figures were gradually becoming clear as ten unmoving Daoists in long robes arrived. Their auras were immensely powerful.

“Look! It’s the Empress’ close retainers!”

“Every single one of them is a strong Nascent Soul cultivator, they will surely slaughter all these demon cultivators!”

Many commanders of the Chaotian Department, who were currently fighting against the demon cultivators, revealed joyful expressions on their faces.

These Daoist soldiers were sent by the Wuliang Tian to guard this place. With them here, things would be much easier.

However, at this moment, powerful, hawk-eyed old men appeared on the decks of the Demon boats, each with a blood-red raven on their shoulder.

“Today, let me experience the power of the Daoist soldiers!”

The hawk-eyed old man snorted coldly, making a single motion with his finger in the void. He sealed the surrounding space with Heavenly Earthly Spiritual Qi, grounding all flying objects and trapping the ten Daoists in mid-air.

For a moment, the confidence that the crowd had built up plunged into the abyss.

This hawk-eyed old man was obviously a terrifying demon. He could seal off space – the Demonic Sect and Demonic Cult had clearly come well prepared!

“Lin Shihuang, don’t be impudent!”

Elsewhere, Bai Qiufu, in her flowing green gown, expressed cold determination from her eyebrows.

She wielded an old and cold white slim sword, lunging in Lin Shihuang’s direction in a flash.

“Take my sword too!”

Commander Gu didn’t stand by and watch but cast his own treasured weapon His life-dependent treasured weapon was a red snake-shaped sword, with winding curves, and emanating an overwhelming Sword Intent.

He too aimed at the direction of the demon’s son.

“Humph! All of you come at me together then.”

There was not a trace of fear on Lin Shihuang’s face. He coldly smiled and the thick black demon dragon shadows appeared again.

In front of the window at a post house.

Han Ye stood still, sweeping the void with his Spiritual Sense.

“All of this is to seize the imperial city, targeting the Empress of the Great Zhou. No one knows how many people participated in this plot – from the Daoist soldiers, the elder of the Demonic Sect, the eldest princess of the Gold Crow Kingdom, the Immortal Sword Cold Waterfall, and even…”

“Brother Lin.”

Han Ye looked towards the tumultuous demon shadows in the sky, his feelings mixed. ⁵

When he first saw Lin Shihuang’s figure, his initial reaction was disbelief. However, upon thinking back, Lin Shihuang had indeed disappeared for four years.

A lot could’ve happened in these many years.

Who really knew what Lin Shihuang had been through?

The invasion of Capital City by the Demonic Sect indicated the impending end of peace, and the human world would once again be reduced to ruins. As a disciple of the Sect, he couldn’t just stand by.

Watching his former brother turn into a demon, Han Ye couldn’t help but feel a hint of regret in his heart.

On top of the walls of the imperial city, Lin Shihuang called out to Bai Qiufu and Commander Gu:

No matter who tries today, no one can save Great Zhou.”

Can you endure the wrath I’ve suppressed for ten years?!”

Lin Shihuang snorted, retiring his playful attitude and drew out a divine staff from the Magic Ring. The staff was entirely black and glimmered with dazzling starlight..???? ⁵
