Chapter 172: The Demon Race Seizes the Opportunity! The Great War Begins!

In just over an hour, the King of Qin used thunderous means to bloodily purge the dozen or so noble clans that had rebelled in the Imperial Capital!

The offensive launched by the experts led by the King of Qin came and went quickly.

Following the end of the series of powerful spiritual energy tremors, the capital city of Xianyang returned to its former tranquility.

It was as if the bloody events that occurred today had never happened at all.

For a time, the entire Qin nation was struck with fear.

No one expected that the King of Qin would suddenly take such drastic action! One must know that those the King of Qin bloodily slaughtered this time were not ordinary minor officials.

They were old clans that had been passed down for who knows how many years within Qin.

Among these noble clans, there were quite a few Venerable-level Beast Tamers, and their strength was not to be underestimated!

The officials from top to bottom did not expect the King of Qin to be so decisive.

However, Luo Shuiyan knew that although the bloodshed in Xianyang had ended today, the real purge had only just begun! Those who opposed the reforms and wanted to commit treason were not just these few in the Imperial Capital.

Across the territory of Da Qin outside the Imperial Capital, there were still many rebels entrenched.

Now that only the treacherous sycophants within the capital city of Xianyang had been eradicated, a purge would soon follow across all of Da Qin! It was clear that for the King of Qin, he had previously been too cautious, which was why he had delayed making a decision.

These noble clans were still relatively important to Qin, especially regarding certain historical issues.

Therefore, even though these noble clans all opposed the reforms of Shang Jun, the King of Qin had only been mediating between them.

But he did not expect that these treacherous sycophants would actually go so far as to commit treason.

If they wanted to poison him, then they could not blame him for employing thunderous means.

Since he had already made his move, he would simply see it through to the end.

The King of Qin decided to use thunderous, overwhelming force to pull out the remaining influence of these noble clans by the roots! He would completely clear away all obstacles to the reforms and prepare for Da Qin's reform and strengthening.

Soon, four months passed.

After lying low for this period, Jiang Che's level had already reached Level 69.

He was now advancing toward Level 69; this speed of cultivation and breakthrough was simply shocking.

And Jiang Che's current bloodline purity had been completely accumulated to one hundred percent!

Now possessing the complete Kirin Divine Beast bloodline, his attribute panel now clearly displayed a Mythical-grade bloodline! And because of Jiang Che's breakthrough, Luo Shuiyan also received feedback from her Spirit Beast, officially stepping into the Five-star Zun-level.

Although Lin Xueer and the other two were slightly inferior, they had also become Venerable-level experts; even looking at the entire continent, the strength of the three was extremely formidable.

Now, with the strength of the three, even among the Three Core Nations, they were enough to support a major power!

The current Da Qin, after the bloody suppression by the King of Qin, had completely cleared away the obstacles on the path of reform.

Through iron-blooded means, the King of Qin implemented the reform policies proposed by Shang Jun and Luo Shuiyan throughout the entire Qin nation.

With the fall of those powerful clans and the implementation of various policies, the entire Qin nation appeared to be flourishing.

If only more time were given to Da Qin to continue developing, then the future national strength of Qin would surely be incomparably powerful!

After experiencing various events, Luo Shuiyan was directly promoted exceptionally to become the National Teacher of Qin.

She truly attained a status of being below one person but above ten thousand.

She even held multiple posts and simultaneously held the commander's seal of Qin.

Now, the entire Da Qin had only one Marshal, and that was Luo Shuiyan. At this time, she held the highest status in the Qin military.

Within the War Demon Race region.

In an ancient city, many members of the Demon Race were gathered here.

"Da Qin has suffered internal strife this time, and the commotion was very large." "Even the King of Qin was almost assassinated and fell; presumably, the losses were great, and the national strength has been weakened quite a bit. Now is the opportunity for us to act."

"That's right, although that King of Qin does have some ability and used iron-blooded means to suppress the rebellion."

"But having just experienced such a major internal strife, the Qin nation is still in turmoil. This is an excellent military opportunity; we must not let them take this chance to recuperate!"

The experts of the War Demon Race had eyes full of greed and ferocity at this moment.

They seemed to have already seen the scene of themselves trampling over Da Qin.

Qin was just one of many small nations, and its strength was completely incomparable to the Three Core Nations.

Yet, such a small nation was an extremely hard nut to crack.

The naturally bellicose War Demon Race had been fighting with Qin at the border for many years, yet they had never achieved any major gains.

They hadn't even broken through the border line.

The capital of Qin, Xianyang, was located not far from the border.

It seemed as if this was Qin's mockery of them, the Demon Race.

The War Demon Race had long wanted to trample Qin flat to proclaim their own powerful strength.

It was just that over these years, they had never succeeded.

Now, the news of the King of Qin suppressing the rebellion had reached the Demon Race region.

This news instantly made the experts of the War Demon Race feel excited.

After all, the royal lineage of Qin had always been powerful, and usually, no rebellions occurred.

But this time, the royal lineage headed by the King of Qin had actually engaged in a struggle with many noble clans throughout Qin.

The entire Qin nation was flowing with blood; in the eyes of the War Demon Race, even a hard nut like Qin must have been severely damaged.

After discussions among these naturally bellicose War Demon Race experts, they unanimously agreed that they should launch a war immediately.

Taking advantage of the fact that Da Qin was currently weak, they would launch an attack with a powerful offensive.

Soon, under the leadership of these experts, the War Demon Race army quickly assembled.

Subsequently, the massive Demon Race troops set off directly toward the border of Da Qin.

The black, overwhelming mass of Demon Race experts was soon discovered by the scouts of Qin.

Immediately, the border beacon fires were lit, and for a time, an aura of slaughter permeated the border.

Da Qin has been confronting the Demon Race for many years, and the soldiers at the border are already very experienced in dealing with this kind of war.

Upon seeing the army of the Demon Race invading, their reactions were all very swift, and they carried out their defenses in an orderly manner.

Even though the army of the Demon Race this time was massive and aggressive, the soldiers of Qin did not show the slightest panic.

For a moment, banners fluttered atop the border city walls, and the Qin army in silver spears and armor stood in battle array.

"It seems the Demon Race wants to take advantage of our weakness this time, to launch a major battle and annihilate Da Qin in one fell swoop..."

Watching one after another of the signal fires rising in the distance at the border, Luo Shuiyan sighed in a low voice.

However, although a great battle was imminent, Luo Shuiyan did not have the slightest look of fear, and her gaze was very firm.

Clearly, Luo Shuiyan had long since anticipated this war.

The War Demon Race are not fools; born with a love for battle, they would absolutely never let any opportunity for war slip by.

Now that internal strife has appeared in Qin, it is inevitable that the War Demon Race would launch a war.
