Chapter 274: The Death of Shangguan Jianren

gfei and Xi'er came out one after another, ready to depart."Alright then, let's set off now! Our destination is Bei Ling!" Su Qingying, full of confidence and vigor, led everyone towards the palace g...Early the next morning, Su Ziyi and Zhao Tianyu hadn't even woken up when they were startled awake by Rong Yue's grave voice, "Your Majesty, urgent report! The Northern Ridge army and the Western Underworld army are about to break through the city gates. Please, Your Majesty and the Southern Border Emperor, evacuate this place immediately."

"What!" Su Ziyì jumped up from the bed in shock, just about to say something, when suddenly the ground beneath his feet trembled violently, and the whole tent shook.

Boom, boom, boom —

Deafening explosions rang out one after another, and flames soared into the sky outside Lingtian City.

"What sound is that" Su Ziyixian's face was filled with alarm.

However, hearing the intermittent explosions outside the city, Zhao Tianyu was so excited that his face turned red. He threw off the covers and got out of bed, "Bombs! It's the sound of bombs exploding! Come on, help me out!"

"No, you're not healed yet. The physician specifically told you to rest properly." Su Ziyi hurriedly stopped him, his gentle eyes showing a hint of reproach.

"Light! It's light back again!" There's no mistake, the sound of the explosion isn't like this at all, this is the effect only a bomb could make, there's no doubt, it must be that little girl who's back.

Su Ziyi was taken aback and instinctively grabbed his arm, "What did you say"

"I said the sounds outside must be light and airy, it was her back. Let's go out quickly." Besides her, who in this era would have such skill

“Okay, I’ll help you.” He nodded, Su Ziyi didn’t suspect anything and helped him out together.

At the same time, on the other side, above Lingtian City, Su Qingying and Jun Liye were leading over 20,000 troops back in a triumphant manner.

Su Qingying landed steadily in Lingtian City, throwing a grenade with one hand, her eyes filled with an astonishingly fierce gaze. "While I was away, you dared to unite and bully my elder brother, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen and Shangguan Jianren! Today, I will make sure you all meet your demise!"

"Su Qingying!" While they were shocked by the black orbs in their hands that could explode, Xuanyuan Locheng's gaze was fixed on Su Qingying. His eyes widened in disbelief.

"Jun Li Ye! How is this possible You're not dead!" Shangguan Jianren was equally shocked, his sinister eyes bulging in horror.

How is that possible He's not dead!

A cold gaze swept over his furious face, Su Qingying slowly curled her lips and sneered: "You're half-foot in the coffin and you're still alive, how can we possibly be ahead of you Shangguan Jianren, today we settle both old and new scores!"

Blood-red, narrow eyes narrowed, a terrifying aura rose behind Jun Liye, killing intent bursting forth, "Shangguan Jianren, everything you did to our family back then, this king will return it tenfold!"

"I don't know what you're talking about." Shangguan Jianren frowned, the killing intent in his eyes was undiminished.

Seeing him act dumb, Su Qingying couldn't help but curl her lips and sneer, "Don't know Hmph, if you don't want people to know, then don't do it yourself. All these years of your deeds, every single one, Empress Dowager has recorded them in her note book. If not for the Empress Dowager's notes, we might not even be able to get out."

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Jianren's face instantly changed, his pupils shrank fiercely, and he said angrily: "Handwritten note Did you touch her corpse!"

“We didn't just move her body, we also took her out of the ice room and gave her a proper burial with our father king.” Knowing exactly how to provoke him, Su Qingying smiled even brighter, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, her killing intent was palpable.

“You, Yanran is mine! I won’t allow you to touch her, give Yanran back to me!” Upon hearing that they had moved Shangguan Yanran’s body, Shangguan Jianren seemed to have gone mad. He rode his steed furiously towards the city gate, ignoring the raging fires and deafening explosions all around him.

"Shut your mouth! You're not allowed to call Mother Empress by her name, you don't deserve it!" With a cold glint in his blood-red eyes, Jun Liye casually picked up a bomb and, with precise internal energy, hurled it towards him.

Upon seeing the bomb flying toward him, Shangguan Jianren's expression turned grim. Without hesitation, he abandoned his horse and rolled to the ground, quickly escaping. The blast wave tossed him around like a ragdoll, but miraculously, he survived.

"Everyone, get ready! Give it everything you've got!" Su Qingying gave the signal with a sweep of her hand, and the over 20,000 soldiers under her command hurled grenades down with reckless abandon.

Boom boom boom—

Countless soldiers perished in the dense aftermath of explosions. The over a million troops originally gathered around Lingtian City rapidly dwindled at an alarming rate, shrinking to just a few hundred thousand in the blink of an eye. Many soldiers had fled in terror.

Below Lingtian City, the ground is littered with corpses, a scene of blood and carnage.

"Shangguan Jianren, go to hell!" Jun Liye calculated Shangguan Jianren's position and launched three or four bombs at him at high speed.

"Yanran is mine!" Shangguan Jianren's eyes were bloodshot, his hair disheveled, and he looked utterly mad. There was no trace of the emperor's majesty left.

Boom!

Three or four bombs exploded around him one after another. Shangguan Jianren was instantly blown to pieces, his flesh and blood mangled!

“Good, it’s done!” Su Qingying motioned for everyone to stop throwing bombs. Standing high above, she glared down at Xuanyuan Luocheng who was dodging and weaving in the city below, her eyes filled with a chilling coldness. "Xuanyuan Luocheng, now it's your turn. What do you say Do you want to continue fighting If you don’t accept defeat, we will fight to the end!”

Witnessing Shangguan Jianren's tragic death, Xuen Yuan Rongfei almost begged in tears: "Brother Emperor, Master's bomb is truly powerful. You've seen it yourself, a million soldiers wiped out in an instant! I beg you, please don't fight anymore, Brother Emperor, I beg you, withdraw the troops."

"Xuan Yuan Luo Chen, have you thought this through For Rong Fei's sake, I won't take your life. But if you still persist in your delusion, don't blame me for leveling your Xi Ming!" Su Qing Ying glanced at Xuan Yuan Rong Fei who was sobbing uncontrollably, her eyes darkened, and issued one last ultimatum.

Deeply gazing at Su Qingying's stunning and cold face, Xuen Yuan Luochen's eyes flashed with unprecedented unwillingness and helplessness. He hissed, "Su Qingying, the most regretful thing I've ever done in my life is not falling in love with you earlier than Jun Liye."

If only he had made up his mind sooner, if only he had won her love earlier!

He thought he was no worse than Jun Liye in every way, but he lost to her in the end!

Su Qingying—the woman who made him both hate and love her!

"Cut the crap, I just want to know, are you withdrawing troops or not" Su Qingying asked impatiently, her brow furrowing.

She had made it clear the first time, there was no need to dwell on it.

"West Ming, descend!" With fists clenched, nails digging deep into flesh, Xuanyuan Luocheng gritted his teeth and spoke with extreme unwillingness.

The orb of dark energy they wielded, and the flying machines that could carry people, both filled him with dread.

His army of 800,000 men had been decimated, leaving him with little hope of victory even if he didn't want to surrender. What other choice did he have but to yield

Su Qingying let out a cold snort, "Hmph, you're being smart!"d palace, using the thick darkness as cover. They headed straight for the sleeping quarters of Emperor Beiling. 。"Little girl, where are you" Perched on the roof of Shangguan Jianren's house, Shangg...
