Chapter 1069
A member of the Imperial Guard did not even have the chance to dodge.
They were directly cut down where they stood.
Such a scene caused the Song Wang on the other side, who had yet to recover from his injuries,
to fall into utter despair.
At this moment, a look of panic could not help but surface in his eyes.
The Great Han had actually sent Xiang Yu.
This time, he was truly finished.
Sure enough, at this very moment,
Xiang Yu had already arrived at his side.
He swung the weapon in his hand and struck down directly.
"Boom!"
The Song Wang's head went flying into the air.
Yet, at this moment, there was not the slightest expression on his face.
To him, the life of the Song Wang meant nothing.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, Xiang Yu has gained killing military merit, strength increased to the fourth level of the Primordial Saint!"
Upon hearing the voice, the corners of Ximen Wudi's mouth curled into a smile.
As expected of a being summoned by himself, this Killing Legion was simply too heaven-defying.
In such a short time, they could improve by several realms.
If not for the fact that he needed to maintain his majesty, he would have long since had the system exchange for it.
Thinking of this, he could no longer hold back and walked directly toward the main hall.
He wanted to see the Princess of Song.
However, just after stepping into the main hall,
a burst of weeping could be heard.
"Wuwu, Father Emperor, how could you leave your child behind? Wake up and look!
The Great Han is bullying us too much!"
The Princess of Song's voice was incomparably miserable.
She knelt on the ground, crying until she was a tear-stained mess.
Although she was a noble princess, in front of the Great Han, she was like a blade of grass.
She dared not be the slightest bit negligent.
Yet, just as she was crying and complaining,
a figure slowly walked in.
"Princess, do not worry.
I will avenge your father!"
As he spoke, he took a pill from his bosom and threw it in front of her.
"This is the Nine-Turn Soul-Returning Pill. After taking it, your father can recover immediately!"
Ximen Wudi said slowly.
Upon hearing this, the Princess of Song's eyes lit up.
She immediately said,
"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty!"
As she spoke, she prepared to swallow the pill.
However, just as she brought the pill to her mouth,
she could not help but freeze.
"Your Majesty, what is the meaning of this? This pill was a gift to me!"
The Princess of Song was terrified to death; she had not expected that just as she was about to take the pill,
the other party would take it back.
"Hehe, I was just testing to see if your father was safe!"
Ximen Wudi said.
At this moment, he understood in his heart that he likely had no affection left for this Song Wang.
Such a cowardly person who feared death—why keep him alive? It would be better if he were dead.
However, his words had just fallen
when, the next moment, a figure appeared in the main hall.
"Roar!"
A furious roar rang out, shaking the eight wildernesses.
This person was none other than Li Jing.
Having just arrived from his journey, he had not yet rested when he saw everything in the main hall.
Immediately, he roared,
"Your Majesty, this subordinate has not failed his mission and has finally arrived!"
His voice was filled with ferocity and madness.
"Li Jing, hear my order: exterminate the rebel Li Yuanba, leave none alive!"
Upon hearing this, Ximen Wudi shouted.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After the words fell, Li Jing drew the sword at his waist and killed his way toward Li Yuanba.
"You seek death!"
Seeing Li Jing attacking,
Li Yuanba also met him with a punch.
The two fought into a ball in an instant.
Outside Li Jing's body, divine light surged.
It was as dazzling as a scorching sun.
However, Li Yuanba was not inferior.
His cultivation erupted in an instant.
"Boom!"
A violent roar sounded.
Li Jing's body was sent flying backward.
However, there was not the slightest trace of fear in his eyes.
"Roar!"
He let out a hiss from his mouth.
Then, he stood up again.
And lunged toward Li Yuanba.
"Bang!"
Once again, he was smashed onto the ground.
This time, Li Yuanba did not intend to hold back.
"Ang!"
Following the sound of a dragon's roar,
his body shone with brilliant golden light.
The sharp blade in his hand struck down straight in the next moment.
This strike was enough to shatter a mountain peak.
It caused Li Jing's pupils to constrict.
However, a look of determination appeared in his eyes.
"Boom!"
The two sides collided, and Li Jing was flipped onto the ground.
However, a huge, bloody wound was also torn into Li Yuanba's chest.
Clearly, he was injured.
Yet, at this moment, Li Yuanba could not care about his own injuries.
Instead, he lunged toward Li Jing once more.
This scene caused the Princess of Song to shout,
"Yuanba, stop! You cannot kill your uncle!"
At the same time, Li Yuanba could not stop his footsteps at all.
He struck out with a palm.
Vast magic power surged forth.
Li Jing's head was shattered directly.
A mist of blood sprayed out.
This left the Princess of Song stunned on the spot, and then she screamed out of control,
"Husband!"
However, her voice was filled with sobbing, which could not change the outcome.
Li Yuanba did not stop; instead, he continued to walk toward the depths of the main hall.
This was the true place where the Song Wang went into seclusion, and it also held his treasured items.
He believed that among those things, there should be a way to solve the Great Han's difficulties.
Yet, just as he stepped into the palace gate,
"Ang!"
A roar suddenly rang out.
Within the palace walls, a massive black tiger leaped across the sky and lunged straight at Li Yuanba.
A fierce aura bloomed, making the surrounding space feel almost frozen.
"Bang!"
However, this time, the black tiger still did not get close to Li Yuanba.
It was blasted apart by a single punch.
Then, a thick mist of blood dispersed.
This caused the Princess of Song to let out a sigh of relief.
Unknowingly, she had been so frightened that she had collapsed onto the ground.
At this moment, Li Yuanba did not pause in the slightest.
He walked straight into the palace and searched continuously among the halls.
Soon, a large tripod came into view.
It was clearly the Song Wang's final trump card.
When Li Yuanba approached,
"Hehe, want to take my nation-protecting artifact? Then prepare yourself for death!"
After the voice fell, a pitch-black iron rod smashed directly toward Li Yuanba.
The speed was fast to the extreme, like thunder and lightning.
"Hmph!"
Seeing this, Li Yuanba let out a cold, low roar.
Cold light flashed in his hands as he instantly blocked in front of himself.
"Bang!"
Following the sound of the bang,
Li Yuanba could not help but retreat several steps.
His face was incomparably pale.
He had not expected the Song Wang's strength to be this powerful.
And the Princess of Song, seeing Li Yuanba suffer a loss,
wanted to step forward to stop them.
"You are not allowed to come over!"
However, Ximen Wudi's cold voice rang out at this moment.
It froze her figure in place.
She could only watch helplessly as Li Yuanba and the Song Wang fought together.
On the other side, Li Shimin was completely dumbfounded.
Because, at this moment, all the guards in the Song Wang's mansion had been cleared out.
Only the two siblings remained.
Moreover, the Princess of Song was also present, but he did not even have a chance to rescue them.
After all, Li Jing was a powerhouse at the fifth level of the Saint realm.
And that Song Wang was no less capable than him; now the two sides were fighting.
How could a disciple like him, at the mere first level of the Saint realm, intervene?
Thinking of this, he could not help but shake his head with a bitter smile and say,
"Sister, let's surrender!"
At this moment, he could not help but feel a bit sorrowful.
His painstaking schemes had been of no use at all.
"Shimin, even if our family is destroyed, we will never surrender!"
The Princess of Song said stubbornly.
At this point, she had already staked everything.
"Boom!"
And just after their words fell,
the two people in the arena had also decided the winner.
Although Li Yuanba's combat power was astonishing, even surpassing Ximen Wudi's,
but unfortunately, the Song Wang's methods were ruthless; how could he be a match for him?
After a brief collision, the other party gained the upper hand.
This left Li Yuanba in a wretched state.
"Chi!"
A steel saber slashed into his shoulder.
Scorching blood flowed out, causing Li Yuanba's entire arm to go numb.
Seeing such a scene,
a cold, sinister smile appeared on the Song Wang's lips.
He gripped his war spear and stabbed toward Li Yuanba's chest.
"Boom!"
However, just at the moment the war spear touched his body,
a roar rang out in the sky.
Following that, a star as large as a mountain crashed down.
