Chapter 971: Pulls strings, about to rise

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

When masters compete with each other, they fight for every splitting moment that passes over them. Sometimes, even just a breathing room can kill you.

When the five supreme martial gods heard Lin Chujiu’s words, they were stunned for a moment. However, that moment caused them to lose the opportunity.

One sword!

With just one sword, five supreme martial gods were killed at the same time!

“You, you…” The five supreme martial gods looked at Xiao Tianyao with wide eyes in horror. They couldn’t figure out how they died.

They wanted to ask, but no words came out when they opened their mouths.

It was obvious that Xiao Tianyao had no intention of solving their doubts.

Xiao Tianyao easily dealt with the five supreme martial gods. Without any nonsense or wasting time, Xiao Tianyao walked out with his sword in hand and glanced at the guards escorting them coldly: “I’m sorry, you can’t kill me.” He wanted to kill everyone.

When people die, no one will tell the Emperor how easy it was for him to kill five supreme martial gods.

“Prince Xiao, you, you…” The guards escorting Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu also wanted to establish a relationship, but when they thought about it, they had done nothing in the past three days except monitor Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu and treat them as prisoners. Now, they lose the confidence to have a relationship.

They have always regarded Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu as dead people, not caring about them at all, but they don’t want to die even if they deserve to die.

They were answered by Xiao Tianyao’s cold sword: “Only dead people don’t talk nonsense.”

*Pa* Blood fell on the ground and splashed like red flowers. Xiao Tianyao didn’t even look at it. He turned around and saw Lin Chujiu, who had already packed up, walking out.

“Let’s go.” Xiao Tianyao wiped the sword clean, held Lin Chujiu’s hand, and walked out…

The inn was not far from the imperial capital, but Xiao Tianyao was too ruthless that day. He cleaned up all the watchdogs that the Emperor sent in an open or hidden manner. So it was already a day later when the emperor received the news that they had left.

“Five supreme martial gods died in battle at the same time, killed by a single sword? Do you believe what you say?” After hearing the news reported by his subordinate, the Emperor couldn’t help but sneer.

Was Xiao Tianyao’s ability so extraordinary that he could kill five supreme martial gods with one sword?

He doesn’t think so!

If he had not seen it with his own eyes, the messenger wouldn’t believe it, but the facts were in front of him, and he could not allow himself to say no.

“Your Majesty, the bodies of the five super martial saints will be delivered tomorrow. Your Majesty, you can check them with your own eyes.” He wasn’t lying. Xiao Tianyao killed five supreme martial gods with one sword.

In just a few days, eight supreme martial gods in the Central Empire have died in his hands. If the loss continues, all the supreme martial gods in the hands of the Central Empire will be dead. By then, no enemy countries, not even the great noble families would let the royal family go.

This world relied on strength. If there were not enough masters on hand, no matter how powerful the army of the Central Empire was, they would suffer big losses.

However, if Xiao Tianyao had not been killed, where would the Central Empire’s face be?

The Central Empire was now in a dilemma, unable to advance or retreat.

“He managed to kill five supreme martial gods with one sword. Okay, okay, okay, Prince Xiao of the East is so powerful. No wonder the elders of Martial God Mountain attach great importance to him. It turns out that he is so strong. It seems that he was still holding back his strength that day when fighting the three supreme martial gods.” Speaking of which, it would be funny if the Emperor still deceives himself.

“Your Majesty, are we going to continue sending people to kill Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu?” The messenger secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the emperor believe him.

Having seen how powerful Xiao Tianyao is, the Emperor shouldn’t blame them for not doing a good job, right?

“Kill, you must kill Xiao Tianyao at all costs.” Of course, they have to kill him. If they didn’t send people to assassinate Xiao Tianyao this time and didn’t go against him, perhaps they could still maintain the superficial friendship, but now……

It was impossible.

Five supreme martial gods die, even if the Central Empire was willing to let Xiao Tianyao go, Xiao Tianyao will not let the Central Empire go. Unless Xiao Tianyao dies, he will be a powerful enemy of the Central Empire in the future.

“Yes!” When the messenger heard the Emperor’s order, he didn’t hesitate at all. Although he didn’t think they could complete the task, he still wanted to give it a try.

The fact that Xiao Tianyao killed five supreme martial gods at the inn was not a secret matter. The seven great noble families were paying attention to Xiao Tianyao, so naturally they knew about it early on.

The family, who were still dissatisfied with Xiao Tianyao at first, immediately became speechless, and their wording also changed: “He is indeed young and promising. Prince Xiao of the East is not simple, he can be arrogant.”

“As for Prince Xiao, from now on… let’s show our kindness and remember not to make things difficult for him again.”

“Lin Chujiu, alas… remember, the bloodline of the sacrificer must not be leaked. Do you understand?” The headmaster of the Lin family said. After the daughter of the Lin family was thrown out by Xiao Tianyao that day, the Lin family knew that the beauty trap was ineffective.

What Xiao Tianyao wanted was not a stunning beauty. No matter how beautiful a woman is, she will be useless to Xiao Tianyao if she is not Lin Chujiu.

“Father, give up. Our Dongyang family cannot afford to offend a man who can kill five supreme martial gods with one sword.” Young Master Dongyang couldn’t see it, but he also knew his father’s mood at this time.

Xiao Tianyao killed five supreme martial gods with one sword. It was shocking. Not to mention his father, even he was shocked.

The Dongyang Family cannot offend such a talented and strong person.

Although the Dongyang Family was the top one in the Central Empire and had deep roots, they cared about many things and didn’t dare to take risks easily.

“But what about your eyes? Your eyes…” The headmaster of the Dongyang Family was also afraid of Xiao Tianyao, but seeing his son’s eyes, he didn’t want to give up.

His son’s eyes probably can only be saved by Lin Chujiu, a person of the Sacrifice’s bloodline. He didn’t want to miss this opportunity.

“Let’s go find the Eldest Prince. Our Dongyang Family can help him. As long as he can help us meet Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, we can talk about this matter.” Their family has been plotting and waiting for Xiao Tianyao to be in a desperate situation with Lin Chujiu, and then they will come forward to help them, but……

Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were too strong to give them a chance to help. They waited again and again but never got a chance.

Now, he has figured it out. If they want to deal with a strong person like Xiao Tianyao, they can only go straight to him. If they make roundabout calculations, they will only fall into the inferior position, just like the Eldest Prince and the Lin Family.

“Help the Eldest Prince? He has lost the right to inherit. If we help him, isn’t it equivalent to betting on an empty mountain?” The headmaster of the Dongyang Family frowned, unable to understand or accept the actions of his eldest son.

“Father, the Eldest Prince is retreating to make progress. Can’t you see, once Xiao Tianyao soars into the sky next year, the Eldest Prince will also benefit.” Of course, the Eldest Prince will also provide help to Xiao Tianyao. There was no doubt about this.

With the Eldest Prince keeping the Central Empire in check, no one in the Central Empire can control what Xiao Tianyao does in the four countries……

“What do you mean?” The headmaster of the Dongyang Family was stunned and squinted his eyes.

Young Master Dongyang couldn’t see it, but he knew what his father was thinking: “Yes, the Shengyuan Dynasty is about to rise!”

Although he doesn’t know the relationship between Xiao Tianyao and the Shengyuan Dynasty, this did not hinder his inference……
