You Have Science, I Have Martial Arts-Chapter 594 - 269: I Haven’t Rebelled Yet, but Da Liang Is Already Doomed (Part 2)
"Is it that Ye fellow who’s charmed you with some beguiling potion?"
Nie Shixiong didn’t bother to explain much and directly drew the sword from his waist. Right before Nie Dingyuan and Nie Yongjie’s eyes, he twisted the treasure sword forged from Hundred-Refined Steel into a corkscrew shape.
The two sucked in a cold breath, witnessing such an unprecedented spectacle that deeply shook their hearts.
"I have submitted myself to the tutelage of my master and have been imparted the Path of Martial Heart. This is the power I have gained through arduous cultivation. Father, the times have changed. In the face of Martial Dao, thousands of soldiers and horses are nothing but a joke."
Leaving these words behind, Nie Shixiong turned and departed.
"Where are you going?"
"By my master’s command, to eradicate the Cheng Family and make an example of them."
That night, Nie Shixiong ventured alone into Bai Geng City, single-handedly causing the elite three thousand of the Ta Bai Army to scatter in panic. He then crushed the long street and bloodily purged General of Conquest’s Mansion, leaving no chicken or dog alive in the Cheng Family.
In the blaze that reached the skies was the silhouette of Nie Shixiong leaving with Cheng Tinghu’s head, causing the entire Liaodong to fall into silence.
The next day, among the remaining three great families of Liaodong, the patriarchs of the Li Family and Ma Family personally sought out Nie Shixiong to pledge allegiance to the Heart Martial Sect.
They even aspired to join Heart Martial Sect and become followers of Ye Qingzhou.
King Chong’s strategy to divide and conquer was utterly defeated.
Ji City, Northern Domain Protectorate.
Nie Shixiong arrived at Ye Qingzhou’s presence, carrying Cheng Tinghu’s head: "Master, the Cheng Family has been thoroughly exterminated, and Cheng Tinghu’s head is here."
"Mm, you did well."
"Master, there’s one more thing."
"Speak."
"The Li Family and Ma Family want to join Heart Martial Sect."
"Very well, you make the arrangements."
"Understood."
Nie Shixiong bowed and withdrew.
Shortly thereafter, Liu Chang walked in to report the investigation findings to Ye Qingzhou: "Master, the matter has been clarified. The cause was someone offering advice to King Chong."
"Alas, such foolishness."
Ye Qingzhou promptly stood up, leading his people straight to the State Governor’s Mansion, uninterested in playing politicking games with a bureaucrat like King Chong. He planned an overpowering move, making the situation unmistakable.
"Who are you?"
"Halt!"
"Ah!"
After a few cries of agony, the guards at the entrance became cold corpses.
Ye Qingzhou kicked open the grand door and strode in with audacity: "Where is King Chong? Tell him to come out and face me."
"Audacious rogue! Do you know where this is? Daring to rampage in the State Governor’s Mansion, I believe you have a death wish!"
King Chong’s steward rushed over with several hulking servants, but Ye Qingzhou wasted no words, sending a sword strike that howled like the wind.
Under the nurture of Spiritual Qi from the Spiritual Realm, Ye Qingzhou could now wield Sword Qi Slash.
With one sword, he slew enemies remotely, causing six heads to fly high before the bodies fell, blood flooding the ground.
"Now can we talk properly?"
Ye Qingzhou’s Sword Qi Slash stunned all, compelling the entire State Governor’s Mansion to feel a chill run down their spine.
Moments later, King Chong, trying to escape through the back gate, was blocked by a squad of soldiers in the alley and was finally brought to Ye Qingzhou, tightly bound.
"Ye Qingzhou, do you intend to rebel?"
"Why not?"
Ye Qingzhou’s blatant disregard instantly rendered King Chong speechless.
Seeing King Chong mute, Ye Qingzhou shifted his gaze to an advisor beside him: "Are you Tong Yangyi?"
"Yes."
Tong Yangyi carried some literati dignity, remaining unfazed in the face of captivity.
Ye Qingzhou admired such a stalwart nature and decided to grant him a whole corpse: "Someone come, hang him outside the State Governor’s Mansion."
"Understood."
Two soldiers immediately moved forward, dragging Tong Yangyi like a dead dog, and hung him on the street outside.
Such ferocious actions directly silenced all other advisors beside King Chong. They hung their heads, feigning dead, not daring to look Ye Qingzhou in the eye, let alone engage in any discourse.
After seizing full control of the situation, Ye Qingzhou looked at King Chong: "Stay obediently in the State Governor’s Mansion as a mascot. Currently, you still have some use, so I won’t kill you. But know that my patience is limited, understood?"
Ye Qingzhou then raised the Jingzhe Sword in his hand, calmly saying: "To ensure none of you remain confused, I’ll first demonstrate my power."
Clang~
The clear sword sound reverberated through the sky, under dazzling brilliance. King Chong and his cohort seemed to see a Divine Dragon soaring.
Rumblings~
Under the indomitable Sword Qi Slash, the entire State Governor’s Mansion split in two, leaving a ghastly sword mark on the earth.
"This... this power!"
King Chong and his advisors and attendants collapsed, eyes losing all focus.
The martial might showcased by Ye Qingzhou could barely be thwarted even if the court dispatched an army for conquest. Who could challenge such a sword?
But behind Ye Qingzhou, the soldiers were fervent, viewing Ye Qingzhou, the Sect Leader of Heart Martial Sect and Commander of Divine Martial Army, without a doubt, as a true Divine Spirit!
As he departed the State Governor’s Mansion, Ye Qingzhou gazed at the sky. Through the view of the Divine Eye, the light of fortune transformed into a sky full of red dawn, sweeping in waves, pouring in unison.
"It seems after diminishing King Chong’s prestige, all the fortune of Youzhou now belongs to me."
Ye Qingzhou realized this insight in his heart, feeling even greater Thought Ability surge on his Spiritual Platform, strengthening his Divine Thought. His connection with the Spiritual Realm grew more intimate, making it easier to draw Spiritual Qi from it.
