Chapter 225: Waiting for Someone
Before the start of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony, or more accurately, before everyone arrived at Changbai Mountain, Qin Xiaohua had already sensed that this trip must be extremely dangerous.
It's just that he hasn't been sure where the danger will end up.
It wasn't until Pingnanhou emerged from the crowd that Qin Xiaohua finally understood the real mystery behind the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony.
Your Majesty, you want to catch them all.
Qin Xiaohua shook her head with a smile, stood up from the ground, and then looked up at Emperor Jin's unpredictable eyes, and said, "Is Your Majesty too anxious?"
As he said this, the black jade staff in his hand was still only half an inch higher than its original position, and then it stayed there extremely steadily.
Therefore, the iron rope in Qin Nian's hand did not dare to get close.
So Yang Tianxiao, who was hiding in the crowd, gave him a chance to speak.
On the contrary, Emperor Jin's gaze never fell on the black jade short staff, but seemed a little erratic, at this time, facing Qin Xiaohua's smile and question, he just said seriously: "If you go outside, you must first settle inside." ”
Qin Xiaohua nodded, and Bento accepted Emperor Jin's explanation, but immediately after, he asked a second question.
"Have you ever thought about the price of this?"
Emperor Jin took a deep breath, as if he was a little emotional, and then he sighed: "You are old, I am also old, I am afraid that I will not be able to wait for that day." ”
Can't wait for a day?
Of course, it was the day Qin Xiaohua died.
Only Qin Xiaohua is dead, and the so-called small treasury of the Qin family is the real treasury of Dajin.
Only when Qin Xiaohua is dead, Shantang's intelligence power can be used by Emperor Jin.
Only when Qin Xiaohua dies can Emperor Jin stabilize the country.
This is true of Qinjiashantang.
The same is true of Spring and Autumn Academy.
This is still the case 500 years ago.
Qin Xiaohua nodded for the second time, because Emperor Jin's words were reasonable, but it didn't mean that he would accept it, not to mention, he couldn't be caught with his hands tied up now, let alone act rashly, because he still needed to wait for someone to arrive.
So he continued to speak: "It turns out that Hetang belongs to His Majesty. ”
Hearing this, Emperor Jin did not mean to hide it, but simply nodded neatly: "Not bad." You're only now realizing how disappointed I was. ”
If Xia Sheng was here at this time, he would definitely be very surprised, because he would never have imagined that the Hetang, who had assassinated him many times, fought against the Qin family everywhere, had an intelligence network that was not inferior to Shantang, and had cultivated a large number of assassins, would actually be founded by Emperor Jin!
Prior to this, both Xia Sheng and Yin Shizhen of the Adjudication Division had thought that Hetang was a vassal force of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but if you think about it carefully, this inference is actually untenable.
It's just a little prince who dares to establish such a mysterious force, and even targets the Qin family Shantang everywhere, is it possible that he really treats the emperor as a fool?
Or did he want to rebel against the usurpation?
In this world, there is only one person who can hide Qin Xiaohua and single-handedly establish a force that is enough to compete with Shantang.
It is the current emperor.
Now Qin Xiaohua doesn't know that Lin Ru and Yuan Ziqiu, who captured Xia Hong at the beginning, betrayed the Qin family in the Jinyuan Secret Realm, and wanted to take Xia Sheng's life, are actually from Hetang, otherwise, everything will be more logical.
Of course, at this moment, even if Qin Xiaohua was able to confirm from the emperor's mouth that Hetang was created by him, it would not have the slightest impact on the current situation.
Qin Xiaohua was just stalling for time.
"Your Majesty thinks that Hetang can really replace my Qin family and benefit the common people?"
Emperor Jin seemed a little puzzled about this question, but he still answered for Qin Xiaohua: "The rice must be eaten one bite at a time, the road must be taken step by step, and things must be done one by one, at least they have proven to me in the major states that they have the ability." ”
Qin Xiaohua nodded: "I see." ”
Immediately afterwards, he finally stopped looking at Emperor Jin, but turned his head to Pingnanhou, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said with a smile: "Okay, Xiao Xue, your business has been done, hurry up and retreat, so as not to be affected by the pond fish later." ”
When the words fell, Emperor Jin seemed to look slightly stunned, and then he raised his head and looked into the distance, looking at the endless sky.
At the same time, there was also the Yunyin Emperor who was hiding in the crowd.
But the next moment he knew that he could no longer hide.
Because what is about to happen next is likely to hurt the innocent.
Or as Qin Xiaohua said, it will affect the pond fish.
Today's ceremony was originally held at the top of Changbai Mountain, although the ceremony has not officially begun, but the air seems to have heard the response of the emperor.
It was a soft whistling.
But Yang Tianxiao knew that it was not the Emperor of Heaven, but a friend from afar.
As a sign of respect, he finally stepped out of the crowd, revealing his true face, and then stepped on a purple glow and floated gently into the air.
Seeing this, all the cultivators present changed their colors.
Because they are all super strong people standing at the top of this world pyramid, they naturally recognize Yang Tianxiao's true body!
"Emperor Yunyin!"
I don't know who suddenly shouted like this, and immediately stirred up a thousand waves like a stone, causing the entire peak of Changbai Mountain to explode.
However, in the next moment, it was as if people were choked by a pair of invisible hands, and all sounds stopped abruptly.
Because after the purple glow under Yang Tianxiao's feet, there was another purple light falling from the sky, but it was an ordinary wooden sword!
That's Pei Xu's sword!
Seeing this scene, most of the people present were so excited that they couldn't help themselves, and the shock was beyond words, but Qin Xiaohua seemed to have expected all this to happen, and her eyes were still as calm as ever.
But he didn't think about it, but at this moment, Emperor Jin looked at him and asked quietly: "Is the person you are waiting for the Sword Saint?" You can invite him, but it really impresses me a little. ”
When the words fell, Qin Xiaohua didn't know why, the palm holding the black jade short staff suddenly tightened, but he didn't show it on his face, but replied with a smile: "Your Majesty was able to invite Emperor Izumo Yin, and the minister was quite surprised, so the minister just planned and added fuel to the fire." ”
Emperor Jin nodded, and said with emotion: "The world above the Holy Rank is indeed very lonely. ”
As if in response to Emperor Jin's words, Yang Tianxiao, who was standing proudly in the air, also said to the distance: "Everyone is on different sides, we haven't seen each other for hundreds of years, and you just drew your sword as soon as you came, it seems a little too much, right?"
There was no figure in the sky, but a voice exploded on the top of Changbai Mountain.
"Don't talk nonsense, you fat man always avoids me, I finally bumped into me today, let's fight first!"
As soon as the words fell, the purple wooden sword in the air suddenly moved, and with an indomitable momentum, it stabbed towards Yang Tianxiao unreasonably!
