Chapter 424

"If you don't want to die, go and kill the Huang Jin thieves properly!"

Dong Zhuo said furiously to the several Xiliang generals in front of him.

Jianghuai region, the Master Yuan family.

Master Yuan Shu had already been arranged by the Master Yuan family to go to Jianghuai; he originally thought that after arriving in Jianghuai, he could show off his skills and begin to slowly realize the ambitions in his heart.

But after seeing the news of Tong Master Yuan appearing in Jiaying Prefecture, Master Yuan Shu could only bury his thoughts deep in his heart once again.

"Why does the Great Han have two guardian deities??!!"

"I hate this!!!"

The reason Master Yuan Shu had not yet directly raised the banner of rebellion was precisely because he feared Wang Yao Yue.

Their Master Yuan family did not have a martial artist equal to Wang Yao Yue; if he acted rashly, Wang Yao Yue alone would be enough to make him unable to handle it.

At the time, Master Yuan Shu had planned it well: wait for Zhang Jiao to kill Wang Yao Yue, and once Emperor Ling of Han died, he would use Jianghuai as a base to gradually annex the entire south of the Great Han!

But Tong Master Yuan’s appearance shattered everything he had thought of in his mind!

Great Han, Jingzhou.

Ever since Emperor Ling of Han’s health recovered last time, Liu Liu Biao had informed the various great clans of Jingzhou of this matter by holding a banquet.

This made the various clans within Jingzhou obedient for a period of time, and also made Liu Liu Biao’s control over Jingzhou more consolidated.

Before Liu Liu Biao could react from the joy of Emperor Ling of Han’s health gradually improving, the secret report from Jiaying Prefecture reached his hands.

"Good!!!!! Good!!! Good!!!"

"Truly, Heaven favors the Great Han!"

"Sure enough, the Great Han is the empire truly favored by Heaven!"

Looking at the secret report in his hand, two rays of sharp light shot from Liu Liu Biao’s eyes.

Because when Liu Liu Biao learned of Tong Master Yuan’s identity, he understood that the Great Han now, like the Great Tang, possessed two guardian deities.

If Emperor Ling of Han’s health could remain evergreen, this meant that their Great Han could, under the leadership of these two guardian deities, Tong Master Yuan and Wang Yao Yue, completely reverse the Great Han’s disadvantage.

Perhaps in their generation, they could even rely on their efforts to completely eradicate the great clans, the ultimate parasites of the Great Han!

By then, their Great Han would once again be firmly held in the hands of the Liu surname!

"Too good, too good!!!"

"Pass down the order, hang red banners throughout the entire territory of Jingzhou for three days!"

"I want everyone in Jingzhou to know that my Great Han is not a toothless lion!"

"But a fierce tiger that has awakened!"

At this moment, Liu Liu Biao seemed as if he had become a few years younger; the ambition he had long since lost was once again ignited, wanting to strive for the flames of struggle.

Jiangdong region, the Sun family.

The Fierce Tiger of Jiangdong, Sun Wang Jian, couldn't help but laugh out loud after learning of the battle situation outside Jiaying Prefecture.

Among the various great clans, he was originally a faction very close to the Great Han.

Now seeing that the Great Han actually still possessed hidden power, Sun Wang Jian naturally became happy.

"It seems the Great Han’s destiny is not yet exhausted!"

"Huang Jin thieves, this time I must let you see the majestic power of my Great Han!"

As he spoke, Sun Wang Jian happily drank from the wine pot placed beside him.

Most of the Great Han’s great clans were, like Sun Wang Jian and Liu Liu Biao, close to the Great Han.

They knew very well in their hearts that only if the Great Han remained evergreen could their clans continue to prosper and flourish.

If the Great Han were to perish one day, no one could say what the future of these clans would be; after all, if a new dynasty were to be established on the land of the Great Han.

No one could say for certain that the new dynasty would definitely tolerate the actions of the great clans as the Great Han did; the current model of the Great Han was already extremely difficult to change.

Because the great clans had already cultivated sufficiently powerful forces within the Great Han, even if the Great Han wanted to eradicate these deep-rooted clans, it was not something that could be done in a short time.

As for forces like Master Yuan Shu and Dong Zhuo, who harbored ulterior motives against the Great Han, they hated Tong Master Yuan’s appearance very much.

Some of them wanted to rely on the chaotic times to establish greater achievements, while others wanted their clans to advance a step further.

Regardless of the reason, they just wanted the Great Han to be more chaotic; only in this way could they complete their ambitions.

Great Qin, Xianyang City.

With the fermentation of the events in the Great Han’s Jiaying Prefecture, the news of the Great Han’s second guardian deity and the rules set by Emperor Gaozu of Han back then gradually reached the ears of other empires.

Upon learning the news of Tong Master Yuan, a trace of ferocity appeared in the eyes of Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng.

The struggle between the Great Han and the Great Qin was constant; it could be said that if the two sides had the chance, they would inevitably annex the other without hesitation.

Originally, when Ying Zheng learned that Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong’s health was getting worse by the day, and that there was even a possibility he might die directly, he had a moment where he wanted to send troops to the Great Han immediately.

But after learning that Emperor Ling of Han, Liu Hong’s health had suddenly become robust, he temporarily shelved the plan to send troops to the Great Han.

Now, learning the news that the Great Han actually had a guardian deity in the shadows, Ying Zheng could only re-examine this old rival of his.

"How many more trump cards does the Great Han have that haven't been played??"

"Could it be that I have underestimated the Great Han for so many years?"

Ying Zheng looked straight at the empty hall in front of him, his eyes seeming to be able to contain everything.

At this moment, Ying Zheng was thinking deeply; he didn't quite understand, could it be that he had really underestimated the heroes of the world before?

However, after only a moment, Ying Zheng returned to his usual confident and domineering appearance.

"Even if you have a thousand kinds of trump cards, you cannot stop the iron cavalry of my Great Qin!"

Ying Zheng murmured to the void in front of him.

Now, Ying Zheng could indeed say such domineering words.

Even if the Great Han had a second guardian deity, it was still not a match for Ying Zheng’s Great Qin.

In the current Great Qin, apart from Ying Zheng’s own final trump card, just counting the Great Qin’s strongest public trump card, Martial Peace Lord Bai Qi, and the two island masters, Long and Mu, brought by Ying Ying Ziyu from Xia Ke Island, there were three experts at the peak of the Earth Immortal*Heavenly Human realm.

If the Great Han and the Great Qin went to war, Ying Zheng was confident that without the influence of peak martial artists, his Great Qin iron cavalry could trample the Great Han’s land and reach the gates of Luoyang City in a very short time!

Great Tang, Changancheng.

Li Li Shimin, who was originally eating with Empress Empress Zhangsun and Li Li Chenggan and others.

Upon learning the news of Tong Master Yuan, a trace of shock appeared in his eyes.

"Could it be that everything that has happened in the Great Han recently is not a coincidence?"

"Does the Great Han really have other powers in the shadows?!"

Li Li Shimin murmured toward the direction of the Great Han.

"The foundation of the Great Tang is indeed still a bit too shallow."

"After all, the Great Han also has a history of several hundred years; it is normal to have some unexpected means."

"If some people just appeared and wiped out the Great Han, that would be the abnormal thing."

Li Li Shimin said to himself.

Seeing Li Li Shimin’s current state, Empress Empress Zhangsun walked very gently behind Li Li Shimin, then sensibly pressed Li Li Shimin’s temples and said:

"Is there something else that has happened that makes Your Majesty feel worried?"

Recently, too many things had happened among the various major forces in the Nine Provinces; Empress Empress Zhangsun was a bit worried about Li Li Shimin’s health.

Feeling the warmth from Empress Empress Zhangsun, Li Li Shimin gently grabbed Empress Empress Zhangsun’s hand, then said relaxedly:

"It’s nothing, just small matters."

"Let’s continue eating."

In fact, Li Li Shimin was not overly worried about the various events occurring in the Great Han.

Because there was no war between the Great Han and the Great Tang.

And ever since Li Li Chunfeng brought the Seven Martial Arts and others to the Great Tang, Li Li Shimin had deep confidence in the strength of the Great Tang; he felt that among the major empires, the current Great Tang was definitely already among the best.

"After resolving the matter in Northern Song, I will completely annihilate the Turks!"

"Then perhaps I will be able to trample other territories."
