It had been many days since he crossed Hangu Pass. He didnât believe that the Qin emperor hadnât received news of it.
The current situation could only mean that Great Qin was doing it on purpose.
Is the Qin emperor too confident or too stupid?
Zhou Shu looked in the direction of the capital.
In that case, I wonât waste time. Qin emperor, Iâm coming!
The light in Zhou Shuâs eyes soared. He stomped on the ground and shot into the sky with a sonic boom.
Boom!
As Zhou Shu soared into the sky, powerful auras soared into the sky from all directions, trying to stop him.
âYou canât stop me unless you attack together.â
Zhou Shuâs long laugh echoed in the air.
The sword light soared, and with a few clinking sounds, a few figures descended from the sky. Zhou Shuâs figure had already disappeared.
The Great Qin experts looked at each other and saw the fear in each otherâs eyes.?Is he even human?
He was attacked by first-rank martial artists, but he didnât get hurt at all!
What was his technique that made his body golden?
Zhou Shu used the Riding on Cloud and Wind Technique to soar into the sky. He traveled at a tremendous speed toward Great Qinâs capital.
Just as he was a hundred miles away from the capital, the Qin emperor suddenly raised his head.
A light flashed in his eyes, and his body swayed. The next moment, he was already in midair.
Another flash, and he was gone in the air.
Xu Shi, who had already returned to Great Qinâs capital, looked up and saw the Qin emperorâs actions.
He was aghast. âYour Majesty, no!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Xu Shi turned into a streak of fire and flew out of the city.
Boom!
Zhou Shu looked at the Qin emperor who had suddenly appeared in front of him. He didnât appear surprised at all.
âYour Majesty,â Zhou Shu said slowly.
âYou Marquis!â the Qin emperor said in a low voice. âI didnât expect you to be such an expert.â
âYou flatter me, Your Majesty,â Zhou Shu said. âYou should know why I came, right?
âGreat Qinâs Tiger Leopard Wolf Cavalry attacked our Great Xia diplomatic mission and caused us to suffer heavy casualties. Your Majesty, do you want to give me an explanation?â
âDo I need to explain my actions?â the Qin emperor said coldly. âThatâs right. I sent them. If you want revenge, defeat me!â
With a bang, a monstrous aura surged from the Qin emperor.
For a moment, the ground shook, and the sky seemed to be about to collapse.
Zhou Shu was slightly surprised.
He had recently fought with many first-rank martial artists, but their auras were far inferior to the Qin emperorâs.
The Qin emperor was terrifying!
Zhou Shuâs expression turned solemn as he reached for the hilt of the Great Destroyer Sword.
Just as Zhou Shu and the Qin emperor were about to attack, a flame suddenly sped over.
Xu Shiâs figure appeared in the air and shouted anxiously, âYour Majesty, you must not!
âYou Marquis, if you want to fight, Iâll fight with you!â
He rushed to them, stood between them, and stretched out his arms.
âMove aside!â the Qin emperor said coldly. âXu Shi, do you think I canât defeat this brat?â
âYour Majesty, as an unrivaled expert, no one is your match. But you canât unleash your full strength now, or the consequences will be unthinkable!â Xu Shi said anxiously.
âI know what Iâm doing. Heâs just a kid. I donât need to use my full strength. Move!â
The Qin emperor stepped forward and approached with a powerful aura.
Xu Shi and Zhou Shu felt as if the sky was about to collapse, and it even became difficult to breathe.
âLord Xu, step aside,â Zhou Shu said solemnly. He unsheathed the Great Destroyer Sword and slashed forward with lightning speed.
A strong force came from behind and pushed Xu Shi to the side.
A longsword had appeared in the Qin emperorâs hand at some point. He raised his hand and slashed down. Waves of sword energy surged toward Zhou Shu.
Rumble!
A loud bang sounded, and energy spread in all directions.
Zhou Shuâs pupils constricted as the Great Destroyer Sword groaned in his ears.
Although the Great Destroyer Sword was powerful, it was only a yellow-grade weapon.
The sword in the Qin emperorâs hand was an out-and-out heaven-grade weapon.
In the past, Zhou Shuâs strength had an absolute advantage. The shortcomings of his weapons couldnât be seen, but the Qin emperorâs strength was not inferior to Zhou Shuâs. As a result, the difference in weapons was obvious.
Zhou Shu never expected that as a Forging Master, he would be suppressed by someone in terms of weapons.
This Qin emperor was strong enough!
Sword qi crisscrossed, and countless sword beams pierced through the sword light of the Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique and landed on Zhou Shuâs body.
Zhou Shuâs body lit up with an incomparably pure golden color. When the sword beams landed on his body, they made clanging sounds, but they didnât even cut his skin.
A look of surprise flashed across the Qin emperorâs face, but his hands didnât stop moving. His wrist trembled slightly, and the longsword once again flashed like a sky full of fireflies as it shot toward Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu knew that both his Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords Technique and the Great Destroyer Sword were inferior to the Qin emperorâs sword cultivation and longsword.
If he persisted, the Great Destroyer Sword would probably be destroyed here.
Clang!
The Great Destroyer was sheathed.
The Qin emperor and the spectating Xu Shi were both slightly stunned.
In a battle, wasnât it courting death to put oneâs weapon away?
A hint of embarrassment and anger flashed across the Qin emperorâs eyes.?Zhou Shu is so arrogant. Is he looking down on me?
With a low shout, the sword energy emitting from his sword became even more violent.
Zhou Shu also shouted, and the golden light on his body became even more dazzling.
In the eyes of the Qin emperor and Xu Shi, it was as if an inverted bronze bell had appeared around Zhou Shu.
Buzzâ
Boundless sword qi landed on the bronze bell with a deafening sound. It actually blocked the attack!
Zhou Shu looked up and let out a long cry.
He punched forward. With a bang, space seemed to collapse from the force of his punch.
Black space cracks appeared in the air.
His fist instantly arrived in front of the Qin emperor.
The Qin emperor swung his sword, and the blade blocked Zhou Shuâs fist.
Boom!
The heaven-grade sword produced an exaggerated bend, almost breaking.
The curved sword collided with the Qin emperorâs chest. The Qin Emperor grunted and retreated.
âYour Majesty!â Xu Shi exclaimed.
Flames wrapped around his body, and he wanted to attack.
Zhou Shu took a step forward and shouted, âYour Majesty, do you think that you can do whatever you want and force your will on others just because youâre strong?!
âNow, what do you think?
âI want to ask you. How will you give me an explanation for the deaths of more than ten people from Great Xia!â
He stomped and punched again.
The Qin emperor snorted coldly, and his sword qi erupted again.
They both took a step back from the impact.
âWith your ability, do you think you have the right to question me?â The Qin emperor snorted. âYouâre not strong enough, far from enough!â
The Qin emperor shouted, and his body suddenly lit up with a dazzling light. The light soared from his body and formed a dazzling pillar of light.
The moment the pillar of light appeared, Zhou Shu felt endless power surge in from all directions and pour into the pillar of light. Then through the pillar of light, it surged into the Qin emperorâs body.
The aura on the Qin emperorâs body rose steadily. In the blink of an eye, it had already reached an unbelievable height.
âYour Majesty!â Xu Shi shouted, looking anxious.
Zhou Shu frowned. The true qi in his Golden Bell Shield surged, and his entire body seemed to have turned golden from the inside out.
His arms shook, and a dragonâs roar seemed to sound from his body.
Xu Shi even felt that there were dragon-shaped shadows circling around his body.
âCome on!â Zhou Shu shouted heroically.
They both charged forward.
There was a rumble, and dazzling light collided as if two tiny suns had exploded in the air.
Even with Xu Shiâs powerful cultivation, he was still forced back hundreds of feet by the destructive impact. He revealed a shocked expression.
