"I am clearly a meritorious official of the Heaven-Burning Imperial Dynasty, why would Your Majesty do this!" King Zhao's expression was filled with immense grief. "Back then, all my sons died on the battlefield to defeat the God Ruins Imperial Dynasty!"
"Just because you are a meritorious official and command an army that even His Majesty fears, you deserve to die!" Xuan Ji said coldly.
King Zhao was stunned. He never expected that the emperor of the Heaven-Burning Imperial Dynasty would kill him for this reason alone. At this moment, he regretted how he had risked his life to defeat the God Ruins Imperial Dynasty for the sake of the Heaven-Burning Divine Dynasty. This emperor was not worth it!
"Hmph, you are a meritorious official, His Majesty cannot openly harm you, otherwise it will surely displease the people of Heaven-Burning. So he sent me to approach you, originally intending to slowly poison you to death with a slow-acting poison, so that the people of Heaven-Burning would not blame His Majesty for your death. But I never expected..."
Xuan Ji suddenly looked at Su Chen, her face grim, and said, "But I never expected that you would appear out of nowhere! You ruined His Majesty's plans, you deserve to die!"
At this point, she suddenly laughed and said, "But it doesn't matter. The poison has already spread to his internal organs. He can't possibly survive three days; he'll die suddenly!"
"You madman!" The powerful figures from the Prince Zhao's Residence glared at Xuan Ji with uncontrollable rage. Some of them couldn't help but attack, unleashing a barrage of terrifying attacks aimed at Xuan Ji Xuan Ji, determined to make her pay a heavy price.
However, facing the encirclement and attack of the crowd, Xuan Ji smiled coldly and repelled them with a casual strike. The weaker ones were even killed directly. She was incredibly strong!
"You think you're worthy to fight me?" Xuan Ji said with utter disdain.
The powerful figures clutched their chests, blood trickling from their mouths, their expressions a mixture of shock and fear. None of them had expected Xuan Ji to be so strong; even combined, they were no match for her. All these years, she had been concealing her true power!
Xuan Ji ignored them and looked at Su Chen with a solemn expression. She was not afraid of anyone in the arena, but she had to take Su Chen seriously. She guessed that Su Chen's strength was likely that of True God, and now she was no match for True God.
Secondly, there are several powerful figures in the Prince Zhao's Residence who even she has to be wary of. With such a major incident happening here, they will likely arrive soon, which will put her in even greater danger.
Then, Xuan Ji suddenly looked at Zhao Linyuan in the distance, " Linyuan, activate the formation!"
Zhao Linyuan nodded, his hands quickly Hand Seals. The next moment, he slammed his palm on the ground, causing array patterns to erupt. A beam of light shot straight into the universe, revealing dense ancient characters that shone with dazzling golden light.
The moment Xuan Ji activated the formation, she swiftly entered it. Everyone reacted quickly, their expressions changing drastically as they tried to stop her, but it was too late. The two were about to use the teleportation array to escape from the Prince Zhao's Residence.
"Did I let you leave?" Su Chen's voice suddenly rang out. Then, to everyone's astonishment, he took a step forward. In an instant, the rules of the teleportation array fell into chaos, and the most important array eye was reduced to dust!
The beam disappeared; teleportation failed!
"How is this possible!" Xuan Ji and Zhao Linyuan's pupils dilated, their faces filled with disbelief. This teleportation array was something they had spent years setting up. It could teleport people out in a matter of breaths, and it was extremely sturdy, capable of withstanding an attack from True God!
But at this moment they were completely dumbfounded. This teleportation array couldn't even withstand a single blow in front of Su Chen, it was as fragile as a mirror, leaving them somewhat bewildered for a moment.
The people from the Prince Zhao's Residence's Mansion stared blankly at Su Chen. They never expected that Su Chen would be so powerful, completely exceeding their expectations.
At the same time, three terrifying auras suddenly emerged from the arena, the world changed drastically, a violent storm arose, and time and space were shattered. Three terrifying figures suddenly descended here. The moment they arrived, they immediately surrounded Xuan Ji and Zhao Linyuan, making it impossible for them to escape. These three were the true powerhouses of the Prince Zhao's Residence!
"They've finally arrived!" Everyone breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the three powerful figures.
"Damn it!" Xuan Ji roared, her eyes filled with resentment as she stared intently at Su Chen. "You just wait, His Majesty will absolutely not let you go! Absolutely not!"
As she spoke, she chose to self-destruct. Even if she died, she would take a few people with her. She was a complete madwoman!
Upon seeing this, the three powerful figures' expressions changed. They tried to stop Xuan Ji from self-destructing, but it was too late. Just then, a cold light flashed across the field, and Xuan Ji froze on the spot, her eyes wide open. The next moment, under everyone's gaze, her head suddenly slid off her neck, and a large amount of blood gushed out.
Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene before turning their gazes to Su Chen. Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back, his posture upright, exuding an invisible pressure that made everyone feel breathless.
"Greetings, Senior!" Everyone reacted and hurriedly bowed to Su Chen with respectful expressions. Even the three powerful figures did so; this was True God, after all, who would dare to be disrespectful?
At this moment, everyone felt somewhat incredulous that their young lady had suddenly brought back a True God.
Zhao Linyuan was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, his body trembling uncontrollably, his eyes filled with fear of Su Chen.
"Chen, please save my father!" Zhao Yuening suddenly pleaded with Su Chen.
Su Chen turned his head and saw that King Zhao seemed to have been greatly shocked. He had fainted, his breathing was disordered and rapidly declining, and he probably wouldn't last more than a quarter of an hour.
" King Zhao!" The crowd reacted at this moment and rushed to King Zhao's side, each of them looking extremely anxious.
Su Chen did not offer any assistance, but calmly observed King Zhao, saying, "Stop pretending."
Upon hearing this, everyone present was taken aback, not understanding the meaning behind Su Chen's three words.
At this moment, King Zhao, who had been unconscious, suddenly opened his eyes. A vast aura erupted from his body, his complexion gradually became rosy, and he was full of energy. He was completely different from before, as if he had become a different person.
"I still couldn't hide it from you, senior." King Zhao slowly rose, bowed to Su Chen, and then stood up straight, completely no longer showing his previous weakness.
"Father, King Zhao!" Zhao Yuening and the others were all stunned by this scene, not understanding what had happened to King Zhao.
King Zhao reached out and patted Zhao Yuening's head, then looked at everyone with an apologetic expression and said, "I'm sorry, I lied to everyone. I was pretending before."
