Chapter 214

"What did he go to do?"

Ying Mo did not expect that at this time, Ying Zheng would actually dispatch Zhang Han from his side.

One must know that Zhang Han was also a great general, often following by Ying Zheng's side to protect Ying Zheng's safety.

Although Gai Nie's strength was not bad, if facing an ambush by someone with ulterior motives,

having Zhang Han there would still provide some guarantee. **CHAPTER 475**

Ying Mo felt that it was impossible for Ying Zheng not to know what a critical stage they were at.

But why did he have to dispatch Zhang Han at such a critical time?

"Find out for me what Zhang Han went to do."

Ying Mo ordered with a frown.

If he did not clarify these problems, he always felt that something had slipped out of his control.

Even in the middle of the night, when the order was issued, the Heavenly Secret Pavilion mobilized once again.

In the imperial palace of Xianyang City.

Even in the middle of the night, Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters were still brightly lit.

But in the large palace at this moment, there was only Ying Zheng, a lonely figure sitting on the dragon throne.

Before him were memorials piled up like mountains.

The candle flame flickered on the desk in front.

At this time, he had maintained one posture for a long time, delaying writing.

When the ink from the tip of the brush dripped onto the memorial and stained a large area, Ying Zheng finally came back to his senses slightly.

"Who do you think the true culprit found by the Ghost is?"

Ying Zheng's somewhat low voice echoed in the palace.

The palace was silent for a while, then a figure appeared before Ying Zheng.

"No matter who the true culprit is."

"He must die."

Gai Nie's figure was icy.

His entire person exuded a sharp killing intent.

The further the investigation went, the more he understood how big the conspiracy was at the beginning.

The further he investigated, the more he understood how many people wanted to put his disciple to death.

Every time he thought of this, even someone as calm as Gai Nie could not help but feel a surge of strong killing intent in his heart.

"You are right."

"Although I am already old."

"But I haven't reached the point where I cannot move."

A powerful aura erupted from Ying Zheng's body.

This aura caused the twilight on his person to recede.

His eyes lit up with a certain flame again.

A certain flame that had disappeared from his eyes for a long time.

No matter who it was.

These were all culprits who participated in the plot to harm his son.

Even if he were not in this position.

He would still have to avenge his son.

"You should not have dispatched Zhang Han."

Gai Nie's gaze then shifted to Ying Zheng.

Everyone knew that Zhang Han had always followed by the Emperor's side to protect him.

Once Zhang Han did not appear by Ying Zheng's side, it meant that Ying Zheng's protection had a loophole.

Some people with ulterior motives would absolutely make a move against Ying Zheng at this time.

After all, with Zhang Han gone, the opportunities around Ying Zheng were too few.

"Do you also think those people will make a move against me at this time?"

The corners of Ying Zheng's mouth suddenly curled into a smile.

A fierce light appeared in his eyes.

Pretending to be ill before was to find the culprit behind Li Si.

He really did not expect that the two culprits had such powerful strength that they actually escaped.

This had always made Ying Zheng feel somewhat unwilling.

All along, he had thought that he controlled the most powerful force in the entire world.

Yet he did not expect that experts were all hidden in the dark.

This made Ying Zheng feel that his power had been shaken.

He wanted to clear these obstacles before his body completely collapsed.

No matter which son could eventually sit in his position,

he wanted to pave the road ahead more smoothly for these sons.

Gai Nie did not answer Ying Zheng's words.

But his calm gaze had already told Ying Zheng his meaning.

If it were the previous Gai Nie, he would never have such worries.

Regardless of whether Zhang Han was by Ying Zheng's side or not, he had the confidence to protect Ying Zheng's safety.

But the blow those two men in black gave Gai Nie before was too great.

If it were not for the appearance of the Ghost, he feared that both he and Ying Zheng would have died at the hands of those two men in black.

If those men in black appeared again this time, he could not guarantee that he could save Ying Zheng's life.

"I am the Son of Heaven."

"No one can easily take my life."

Ying Zheng said arrogantly.

His words were filled with his confidence as an Emperor.

Gai Nie was silent.

He did not know where Ying Zheng's confidence to be so arrogant came from.

His figure once again faded into the darkness.

He chose to follow by Ying Zheng's side only because of a promise.

He would not follow by Ying Zheng's side to protect him forever.

As soon as the time came, he would leave without hesitation.

Since Ying Zheng had a trump card to protect himself.

That was naturally better.

Lu Bing by the street was kicked away by the Young Commander.

His body hit the wall and rebounded back to the ground.

A mouthful of fresh blood was spat out from Lu Bing's mouth.

He had not suffered such a heavy injury for a long time.

He did not expect these two to be so difficult to deal with.

He feared that their cooperation could completely entangle a Grandmaster.

Lu Bing spat out the blood foam in his mouth.

He gripped the long sword in his hand again.

His gaze was fixed tightly on the Young Commander.

After all, at this moment, the one who could pose the greatest threat to him was this young girl before him.

"I didn't expect the Yin-Yang School to appear as well."

"I am quite curious, why would the Yin-Yang School appear here?"

Lu Bing said with a smile.

The Great Commander and Young Commander did not expect that this person had already known their identities.

The corners of the Great Commander's mouth curled into a cold smile again.

"I didn't expect you to have known our identities long ago." **CHAPTER 476**
