C616 Embarrassment in the Imperial Palace

"This Ye Tian has disappeared?"

"What's going on? Isn't Ye Tian just a little too strong?"

"Being strong is the best thing for us. If Ye Tian is strong, nothing will happen to our prince!"

The few generals were stunned by Ye Tian's means. In the perspective of mortals, Ye Tian was no different from a true Divine Immortal.

Currently, every family was hiding in their homes. All of them were panicking. On the streets outside, many corpses were lying on the ground. Some of them had already started to rot.

Such a horrifying scene had never happened before. Ever since the establishment of the Chu Country, the civilians had never been subjected to such torture.

In the Imperial Palace, a group of people was guarding the Imperial Court. Facing this vast and empty Imperial Court, the faces of the people in the Imperial Court were filled with dissatisfaction, nervousness, and exhaustion.

In the Imperial Palace, there was Hsiang Yunkong and Xi Guang, who were dressed in armor. In the outer perimeter, they were the subordinates that Hsiang Yunkong had appointed to be cautious.

There were many soldiers lying around. They had been dead for a long time. Although it was quiet now, Hsiang Yunkong and the rest knew that they could not be careless.

After the next attack, it was still unknown how many people would survive in the royal court. Even Hsiang Yunkong was prepared to die for the country.

"Kid, I have let you down. I will let you die with me before I can let your master train you. I think your master will hate me to death!"

Hsiang Yunkong's eyes were bloodshot and his chin was full of messy stubble. He looked at Xi Guang beside him and laughed heartily.

However, Hsiang Yunkong still felt guilty in his heart. After all, Xi Guang was Ye Tian's disciple. The reason why he came to Hsiang Yunkong's side was to get a good training.

Who would have thought that things would turn out like this? The entire Chu Country was in chaos. Before Black Cloud Old Man left, he had placed a few of his subordinates in the Imperial Palace to guard the place. These few subordinates had committed all kinds of crimes, burning, robbing, and causing the Imperial City to sink into an abyss of misery.

Now, they had already forced their way into the Imperial Palace and wanted to kill everyone in the palace. After that, they would rebuild a new dynasty. Hsiang Yunkong, who had returned to defend the palace, naturally wouldn't allow such a thing to happen.

There were tens of thousands of soldiers who had returned, and less than a hundred of them had been killed. Hsiang Yunkong's side was heavy, but it didn't seem to have any effect on Black Cloud Old Man's side.

Currently, Hsiang Yunkong and the others were hiding in the Imperial Court, and they didn't even have the chance to leave. They were constantly being forced by Black Cloud Old Man's subordinates.

Even though they were hiding here to defend, the number of casualties continued to increase. Hsiang Yunkong really didn't know when the enemy would succeed and charge in!

"Your Highness, you really know how to joke. My master and you are good friends. If he knew that I died because of this matter, I think he would definitely be proud of me!"

Beside Hsiang Yunkong, Xi Guang was very cheerful. Although he was just a young man, he had a disposition that a young man didn't have.

After all these years of training at the border, Xi Guang had grown very fast. He also knew what was right and wrong. Xi Guang was grateful to his master, Ye Tian, for everything he had.

It was just that his master, Ye Tian, was currently in secluded cultivation, and his whereabouts were unknown. Therefore, he could only let Xi Guang bear all of this by himself.

However, Xi Guang wasn't discouraged. He had done something that his master needed to do. This was his greatest ability. He wouldn't regret it even if his enemy died in his hands.

"What a good kid!" Hsiang Yunkong looked at Xi Guang with a gratified expression. Hsiang Yunjie, who was standing behind them, heaved a long sigh under the suppression.

Currently, Hsiang Yunjie's body was still bound by the broken pieces of Black Cloud Old Man. It had been almost a year.

During this period of time, when Black Cloud Old Man was in the Imperial Palace, Hsiang Yunjie would not be able to protect himself. When Black Cloud Old Man left, the people who had been serving him could only ensure that Hsiang Yunjie would not starve to death or die of thirst.

And now, Hsiang Yunjie and Xi Guang had fallen into such a dangerous situation. Whether it was because of the king, his family, or his friends, Hsiang Yunjie felt extremely guilty.

"Brother Wang, it's my fault for this matter. If I had been a little stronger, things wouldn't have ended like this..."

Hsiang Yunjie's expression was desolate, even more negative than before. This made Hsiang Yunkong worry.

After all, Hsiang Yunjie's current condition was very bad. If he didn't have any hope in his heart, he might be killed.

"What nonsense are you talking about? When we get through this, I will teach you a good lesson!"2

Usually, Hsiang Yunkong wouldn't dare to speak in such a way. Although he was Hsiang Yunjie's elder brother, his younger brother was the current Chu King, so he had to show respect to him.

However, in order to provoke Hsiang Yunjie, Hsiang Yunkong had to be disrespectful. At this moment, the voices of the people outside the hall sounded again.

"What's the point of dawdling in there? Come out now and I'll give you a quick death, okay?"

"What's the point of wasting time talking to them? Let's charge at them again. I don't believe these people can still defend themselves. Damn it!"

"Get out, or I'll torture you to death inside. I think you'll regret your stubbornness at that time!"

...

Outside the main hall, a few fierce-looking men kept shouting. They were the subordinates of Black Cloud Old Man.

However, these men didn't have the master-servant contract that Black Cloud Old Man had set up on their foreheads, because to these men, Black Cloud Old Man still treated them like pigs and dogs.

However, these people didn't think so. After seeing Black Cloud Old Man's means, they followed him wholeheartedly, thinking that they would be able to get a life-saving talisman.

These people were notorious in their respective places. Some of them even entered the wanted list and became public enemies.

Of course, they didn't want to die in the hands of others. Following Black Cloud Old Man was also to save their lives, but they didn't know that after being used by Black Cloud Old Man, they would also die in Black Cloud Old Man's hands.

These people couldn't attack from outside the palace. After all, Hsiang Yunkong and the others were defending with all their might and fighting with all their might.

Initially, they didn't want to kill them, but looking at the current situation, they knew that if they didn't attack with all their strength, they wouldn't know how to explain the situation when Black Cloud Old Man returned or the current situation.

Just as these people were about to attack with all their might, a person suddenly appeared in front of them. This person had a cold expression, but his expression was normal, and no one could tell what kind of person he was.

"Damn it! Did you just come out and surrender? Die now!"

One of Black Cloud Old Man's subordinates immediately questioned him, but before Ye Tian could respond, this subordinate lunged at him.

"Puff!" The man who appeared didn't even look at him. He just waved his sleeve casually. The man who attacked suddenly exploded into a mist of blood and died.

"So noisy." The person who appeared was very calm. He didn't even feel any surprise for his own methods, because he already knew what his methods would be like in the Heavenly Lord Realm.

This person was precisely Ye Tian!

When Ye Tian arrived, he saw Hsiang Yunkong and the others' embarrassment and immediately made a move. These few people in front of him weren't his match, so it was normal for them to be beaten to death.

The remaining few men were shocked by Ye Tian's means. After all, they were people with slightly higher cultivation base. It was very strange for them to be killed by Ye Tian like this.
