Chapter 1245 - 498: A Fight to the Death
Chapter 1245: Chapter 498: A Fight to the Death
Xu Jin originally thought that after the Grand Steward of the Inner Court, Wei Zhong, used this excuse to keep him, he would then take him to a side hall or something.
But unexpectedly, he was really taken to the dungeon within the Dahong Imperial Palace.
Or rather, the dungeon of the Dahong Nine Phoenix Department.
Just by this action, Xu Jin’s heart was set at ease.
This indicated that even within the Imperial Palace, the Dahong Emperor was still wary of the Tianyang Star Lord.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have taken him to the dungeon.
The more these two were on guard against each other, the higher the chances of Xu Jin succeeding in snatching victory from danger.
Fifteen minutes later, after many twists and turns, Wei Zhong brought Xu Jin to a relatively clean and tidy cell inside the dungeon, and after bringing Xu Jin in, he shut the door.
Xu Jin was taken aback.
This made him somewhat confused.
But Xu Jin soon sensed that Wei Zhong was still standing guard outside the cell, and his heart settled down.
The more cautious the Dahong Emperor, the greater his advantage.
After a few breaths, a door suddenly flipped open on the other side of the cell wall, and the Dahong Emperor, in a changed attire, stared at Xu Jin with a gloomy look as he stepped in.
At the same moment, Starlight surged up, with even Space Star Power mixed in, isolating everything.
Even the Space Shifting Star Skill was blocked.
This meant that if the Dahong Emperor and Wei Zhong intended to kill Xu Jin, the likelihood of success was quite high.
One at the late Eighth Tier, one at the Eighth Tier Peak.
Even if Xu Jin used all his special strengths, he could not escape.
However, with the Seven Killings Iron Wood Sword by his side, Xu Jin still had some chance of survival.
"Xu Jin, what about the past of Luomei Manor?
You are actually connected with the remnants of the Blood God Sect from Luomei Manor!
If you confess truthfully, I will spare your life today!
Otherwise!
Today, I will skin you alive, tear you apart, Soul Search you through Yang Jie, and Cheng Yuxiao will still know nothing, unable to save you." The Dahong Emperor said harshly as soon as they met.
Seeing this, Xu Jin’s eyes widened, and he suddenly laughed.
He directly pulled over a chair and leaned back, with the Seven Killings Iron Wood Sword in his arms, leaned against the chair, and laughed, "Emperor, if you say so, why not just do it, kill me then.
No need to waste words!"
The Dahong Emperor, Yang Yun, looked at Xu Jin with a gloomy expression, "Xu Jin, don’t think I have no means against you!
This is my territory, as long as I capture you alive, then control your Divine Soul, all answers will be revealed to me, and all problems will be solved."
Upon hearing this, Xu Jin smiled and shook his head.
"Your Majesty, I have already witnessed your death soldiers.
Honestly, an Eighth Tier death soldier, it’s the first time I’ve seen one.
To protect Your Majesty, they would even burn their Primordial Spirit willingly, very resolute!
Dahong really has many righteous men!
But while Dahong has many righteous men!
We in Dachen also do not lack courageous people!
Honestly, before I entered the Court today, I was prepared to be carried out horizontally!
Or perhaps, leave not a trace!
As for Divine Soul Control?
I also know how to burn my Primordial Spirit!" Xu Jin said with a bright smile.
That smile, in the eyes of the Dahong Emperor, carried an indescribable feeling of helplessness.
The recent threats and bluffs were already his last means.
"Your Majesty, to be honest, I had already exchanged letters with the State Preceptor before coming!
If I do not leave the Dahong Imperial Palace in two hours, the State Preceptor will act according to plan," Xu Jin said.
"What plan?"
"Your Majesty should know, regarding the discovery of remnants of the Blood God Sect in Luomei Manor, the State Preceptor was also involved, even the first to visit.
When the time comes, the State Preceptor will relay some evidence and findings to the Tianyang Star Lord!
I think the Tianyang Star Lord will be quite pleased.
Because he will soon find the high-ranking Blood God Sect member hidden within that he has searched for in vain for a long time.
It is said to be a highly ranked Vice Sect Hierarch of the Blood God Sect," Xu Jin laughed.
In the perception of the Mingji Star Pattern, Xu Jin could sense the breathing of the Dahong Emperor becoming noticeably heavier.
"Ridiculous!"
The Dahong Emperor sneered, "Do you think the Tianyang Star Lord would believe that the Blood God Sect remnants are hidden within my Imperial Palace?!
The Tianyang Star Lord would never believe it!"
Hearing this, Xu Jin shook his head again, "Alright, Your Majesty, no need to act! Whether or not the Tianyang Star Lord believes, you know better than I do!
Even if it’s just a speculation hinting at Your Majesty, the Tianyang Star Lord would likely become highly suspicious.
If he doesn’t root it out, he will not rest!
If Your Majesty continues this way, it will be meaningless.
Your Majesty should just quickly dispose of me or let me go."
The breathing of the Dahong Emperor became visibly heavier.
As the Dahong Emperor, although there is a Tianyang Star Lord above him, when has he ever been threatened like this?
His anger was imaginable.
But dared not act.
As Xu Jin said, he was too clear!
Even if there was evidence, as long as there was a slight suspicion, the Tianyang Star Lord would definitely cause a big commotion.
The Tianyang Star Lord’s desire for control was too strong.
So strong that as the Emperor, he had to be extremely careful even in his own Imperial Palace.
As for disposing of Xu Jin?
He had considered many ways before.
The only reliable one was to control the Divine Soul and master Xu Jin’s life and death to suppress this matter.
But Xu Jin’s attitude was so firm.
He dared not gamble!
If by any chance Cheng Yuxiao truly contacted the Tianyang Star Lord, all his efforts and forbearance for half his life would be in vain.
After a long time, the Dahong Emperor finally pulled a chair, slowly sat down, and said, "Saying, what do you want to do."
Hearing this, Xu Jin felt a sudden relief in his heart.
