Chapter 5: To the Empire

The arrogant demeanor of the other party really made Shen Jie unbearable, so he had to admit that he was her father to let himself forgive her.

Sevelia didn't say a word when she heard this, and kicked Shen Jie's lower body.

The angle of this kick is tricky, and the leg is so sharp, it is definitely the only thing Shen Jie has seen in his life.

At the cost of a heavy blow to his lower abdomen, Shen Jie quickly distanced himself from the other party.

"How did you get there?" Sevelia's eyes lit up instantly, and her otherwise calm voice showed obvious excitement.

"I don't want to hit a woman... Looking at Severia, who was only wearing intimate clothes, the other party was not a vicious terrorist, Shen Jie felt a little unable to do it, but before he finished the last word, Severia's long and straight legs were like a sharpened stake, sticking straight into Shen Jie's face.

Shen Jie looked at the other party's white boxers, lowered his head and planned to return a sweeping leg, but Severia's other leg had already left the ground before this, and a volley hit Shen Jie's left shoulder.

It's kind of interesting.

Shen Jie is also interested, he has not met a martial arts master who can put pressure on him like this for a long time.

He lunged forward, then quickly turned, raised his hands to grasp Severia's shoulders, who were still in the air, and pressed her opponent to the ground with the help of spinning inertia.

Riding under Shen Jie, Sevilia, who was facing up on her back, smashed Shen Jie with a head hammer without hesitation.

Shen Jie's head was raised, and his body arched into an arc, and when Severia's head hammer was exhausted, the body that was bowed into an arc rebounded, and a reverse head hammer smashed into Severia's forehead.

The intense dizziness made Severia temporarily incapacitated, and Shen Jie had no pity for her, and took the opportunity to punch Severia in the face.

Severia was completely knocked unconscious.

。。。。。。

The Great Gap of Mount Mehe, in the middle of the Western Continent, was the natural border between the Kingdom of Brutus in the south and the Empire of Ekatena in the north. Due to the lack of sunshine, the Alima River in the middle of the rift valley has always been known as the Black River, and the water level is high all year round, slowly flowing from west to east, the easternmost part of the Great Rift Valley, which meanders for more than 600 kilometers, the rift valley suddenly opened, and the Alima River, which originally seemed to flow quietly, surged out and poured into the endless sea located in the east of the Western Continent.

On the plains of the river valleys on both sides washed out by the Black River Alima, there were many people standing scattered at this time.

Astan, the Grand Duke of the River Valley north of Brutus, was now standing at the front of everyone with a sad face.

Behind Astan was Baron Edward, the commander of the most elite First Corps in the north of the kingdom, and his wife, Countess Kate, the eldest daughter of the Grand Duke of Astan.

A tall man emerged from the raging river with a body on his shoulder, squatted slightly, and jumped directly from the water. The corpse had been completely deformed by the blisters and began to swell and stink.

After throwing the corpse heavily on the ground, the tall man knelt on one knee, bowed his head and said in a deep voice:

"Lord Duke, all the people who participated in the attack the day before yesterday, both alive and dead, are already here. ”

At this time, there were a total of five corpses and a middle-aged man kneeling on the ground trembling in front of Astan.

Without waiting for Astan to answer, Countess Kate on the side pinched her nose and preemptively said, "Gavin, what you said is a bit of a problem, isn't the illegitimate son of your commander not here?"

Hearing this, Astan turned around and walked up to Kate, and his backhand was a slap in the face, but he was caught by Countess Kate.

"Father, for the sake of that wild seed, you actually want to beat me?"

Astan didn't reply at all, and with a "snap", he threw his other hand his eldest daughter's face.

"Lord Duke, it's all my fault. Edward pulled his wife, who was covering her face and was crying, and stepped forward.

"It has nothing to do with you. Astan said coldly, then turned to look at Gavin and said, "My daughter is stupid, and one thing is right, Yades is not here. ”

"The rebel named Severia isn't here either. The tall man named Gavin said in a deep voice.

Looking at the groups of soldiers who appeared from the exit of the river valley one after another, Astan breathed a sigh of relief and said in a loud voice: "Block all the ports and passes leading to the empire, take the portrait of Yades, and send an order to the three provinces of the Northland, you must get him back for me!"

After speaking, the Grand Duke of Rivervalley glanced back at Kate, who was lying in her husband's arms, and continued: "Until Yades came back, you stayed in your castle and didn't come out. ”

"Why, father!?" Kate snorted in bewilderment.

"Do you know who you instigated to attack the rebel daughter?" Astan's anger reignited.

This time, without waiting for Kate to answer, Edward looked at his wife sideways, and preemptively spoke: "Yades Nepos is the only remaining son of Julius Nepos, the former emperor of the Equitena Empire who died in the royal war in Ekuadna. ”

Looking at his shocked wife, Kate, Edward sighed softly and continued: "His existence is a major bargaining chip in the hands of the kingdom for the empire. ”

"In other words, that kid isn't your illegitimate child at all?"

Seeing her husband shaking his head gently, Countess Kate's whole temperament and emotions were uplifted.

"What are you happy about?" Astan resisted the desire to slap this daughter again, and said hatefully, "The people of the noble council will arrive tomorrow, I don't know how His Majesty the King and the Senate will punish your husband, but his position as commander of the corps will definitely be taken away!"

Kate suddenly showed a flustered mood when she heard this.

"It's okay, as long as we find Yades, everything will pass. Edward reassured.

Shen Jie, who is now Yades, silently watched the crowd that was gradually leaving not far away, and Severia who followed closely behind her had a little bruise on her face, like a woman after being subjected to domestic violence.

"Are they coming for us?" asked Severia, curiously.

"To be precise, they came for me. Shen Jie, who is now Yades Nepos, glanced at Severia, after this woman was beaten by herself, her whole person instantly became normal. Not only will he no longer remain indifferent, but he will even obey any instructions he gives well.

"The identity of this body that I crossed over is a bit complicated," Shen Jie said without scruples in the face of another traverser, "These kingdom nobles, they don't know that this guy called Yades has long known his true identity, and he originally wanted to use this attack to get out of the kingdom's control." ”

"I didn't expect to die at my hands. Severia grinned, but pulled the bruise on her face, and bared her teeth and snorted.

Then she looked at Shen Jie in a daze and said, "Compared to this, I am more curious about your identity before breaking the wall, how can your martial arts skills be so strong?"

Seeing that Shen Jie didn't react at all, just continued to stare at the slowly leaving crowd, Severia continued: "Of course, in exchange, I will tell you my true identity. You may not believe it, but I am ... ”

"I'm not interested in knowing that. ”

Isn't it just a dragon, Shen Jie thought to himself, and then got up and walked around and said, "I'm leaving here." ”

"Where are you going? You really don't wonder where I'm coming from?" Severia hastened to follow.

"Go to the Empire. "That's where Yades originally planned to go.
