"Emperor Slayer"
Rumble--
The deafening explosion once again engulfed the entire Capital.
The earth-shaking tremors once again sent shivers down the spines of those inside and outside the Imperial City.
The only difference is,
The previous explosion occurred outside the city.
Did this massive explosion occur in the city or Imperial Palace?
Everyone in the Capital was awake; even those who wanted to pretend to be asleep could no longer maintain the act.
The ground in the Capital collapsed.
The political climate in the Liang Kingdom has changed.
The towering purple light and dust billowing from the Imperial City were impossible for anyone who wasn't blind to miss.
As for the cause of the massive explosion in the palace...
Anyone with half a brain would have guessed that the purple-light Immortal Sword that flew from the direction of Jade Spring Mountain was coming from nowhere.
The Immortal has made his move.
The target is the palace.
Who are you going to kill?
It's impossible that they made such a big fuss just to kill a few palace maids and eunuchs.
Everyone guessed it.
But no one dared to speak.
It was as if uttering those two words would bring about a fatal disaster.
So most ordinary people went back to their rooms.
I lay in bed, covered myself with the blanket, and also covered my head with it.
But a few people did not go back.
They stood Jingjing in the courtyard, looking towards the palace, observing silently, their thoughts unknown.
Regicide and Emperor Killing
The one who made the move was a revered Immortal.
In front of a million people in the Capital,
They openly and brazenly killed their emperor.
Regardless of the reason,
Regardless of cause and effect
The Immortal did this
It's more like a grand and blatant announcement to all mortals under heaven.
One should be respectful, reverent, devout, and sincere towards Immortals.
Otherwise, even if it were the emperor,
They can also be erased at will.
Gao Yunyi stood at the Jade Spring Mountain,
The night breeze blows.
But the wind couldn't even lift the ends of his hair.
Everyone at the foot of the mountain was gazing towards the Capital, watching as that peerless immortal Immortal Sword flew into the palace.
Then,
The palace exploded.
A major earthquake occurred.
Everyone's gaze remained fixed on them, standing motionless, as if frozen in place.
No one doubted that the old emperor in the palace was not dead.
Under such terrifying divine might and terrifying Immortal Method
No one in this world can remain unharmed.
The emperor died.
Their Eldest Princess is the new emperor.
They should be happy, they should be overjoyed, because their status and position will surely rise accordingly, and high-ranking officials, generous salaries, and wealth and honor will be within their grasp.
But they couldn't feel happy or joyful.
My heart was filled with nothing but fear; there was no room for anything else.
Standing beside them were Immortals.
It was no longer the aloof, holy, and otherworldly True Immortal she once was.
Instead, it resembled a ferocious, Sha Qi demon from beyond the realm.
The terrifying aura emanating from him was chilling and malevolent, like an abyss or a prison, causing everyone present to tremble and even catch their breath.
Gao Yunyi didn't care what these people were thinking.
They wouldn't care.
With that explosion inside the Imperial City

He's really skilled at assassinating emperors.
Upon seeing the first system notification, Gao Yunyi couldn't help but pinch his chin.
A full thousand experience points,
It's far too eye-catching, far too tempting.
Gao Yunyi even considered whether he should try killing an emperor every now and then.
After all, with the old emperor dead,
The new emperor will surely ascend the throne immediately.
In this way,
Couldn't he exploit this bug to gain massive amounts of experience and level up faster than a rocket?
Holy crap!!
I'm so excited, I really want to do it.
But soon,
Gao Yunyi suppressed the restless impulse in his heart.
Such heinous acts are no different from those of a bloodthirsty, cruel, and tyrannical old Old Devil.
I am a disciple of the righteous path, from the Righteous Sect.
It must be that Sha Qi aura, so red it was almost purple, so purple it was almost black, that's causing the trouble, corrupting his fine character and tainting his noble virtues.
Putting aside whether this kind of thing is even possible,
Even if it could be done,
As long as he killed several emperors in succession
It is estimated that the order of the human world will immediately collapse and be completely destroyed.
His mindset is different now than it was before.
Instead of blindly leveling up, he wanted to enjoy the beautiful scenery of this otherworldly realm.
The land was devastated, people suffered terribly, and it was a scene of utter misery, like a living hell.
What does that mean?
Thinking of this,
Gao Yunyi then decided to first get rid of this infamous reputation.
How could he possibly roam the Jianghu and enjoy life with such a fierce and tyrannical Sha Qi?
The small purple swords surrounding him instantly transformed into a flying sword radiating purple qi and lightning, appearing beneath his feet.
I'm staying at your place for a few days, please don't bother me.
After saying that,
Gao Yunyi, riding the Purple Firmament Sword, exuded a terrifying, blood-red Sha Qi, resembling a peerless demon destined to wreak havoc on the world.
With a fierce and Sha Qi aura, it flew towards the Capital.
"Big brother, wait for me, I haven't drawn my sword yet."
Zhang Qingyan jumped up and down anxiously on the ground, waving her hands and shouting loudly.
But they received no response and could only watch helplessly as the purple rainbow carrying overwhelming Sha Qi disappeared into the Capital.
"Big brother, you've left me behind again."
Zhang Qingyan felt wronged and wanted to find something to lean on.
Then Wang Yanan kicked him away.
"Your Highness, what do we do next?"
Watching the Immortal's departing figure, Xiao Zhaohuang's face was filled with complex emotions.
After a moment of silence,
She slowly began to speak:
"Send men to immediately seal off the palace; no news is to be allowed to get out."
"All personnel of the Five-City Military Command will be mobilized. Starting tomorrow, the entire city will be under martial law. All official documents and memorials from the Imperial Palace will be sent to the Eldest Princess's Residence."
"The same goes for Jade Spring Mountain; people were stationed there, and all the bodies were taken away and buried."
"Summon all officials of the Six Ministries rank and above from the Grand Secretariat to come to my residence tomorrow. Anyone who dares to disobey will be punished for treason."
"Furthermore, issue this imperial decree instructing the Five Armies Battalion to expedite their return to the capital."
"I do not want to see any unrest in the Capital, nor do I want any rumors to spread from the Capital. You will personally oversee this matter. If you fail to handle it well, you will be held responsible."
"Your subordinate obeys."
