C240 Emperor Awakening (1/2)
Elder Qingyun's admission of defeat caused Qin Zhu's entire face to turn the color of pig liver. He had never imagined that this would be the result.
Even though he really wanted to rush over and kill Qin Mai, Qin Shaojie and the others without a care for anything else, but reason still allowed him to restrain himself. After all, putting aside the fact that Elder Qingyun would definitely object to his actions, the other two Imperial Deus who had followed him would definitely take part in the organization as well. At that time, the only advantage he had would be gone!
Qin Zhu took a few deep breaths and forcefully suppressed the turmoil in her heart. At the moment, she only hoped that time would pass a little faster.
Two hours was just a flick of a finger for a warrior, but his heart felt like a long time to Qin Zhu. He had interacted with Qin Shaojie a few times, so she knew that this person definitely would not do useless work, and would not take the risk of his own life to do so. There must be a reason behind all of this …
But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't figure out the reason for his actions. What could an hour change?
Could it be that my father, who was lying on the ground, would wake up within two hours? When he thought about this possibility, even he himself found it hard to believe. Shaking his head, even if the people behind him had betrayed him, he would not believe that his royal father would wake up.
There was no one in the entire Great Yan Dynasty who could save or wake him up when a life and death realm expert attacked.
However, just as both sides were waiting for something to happen, something that Qin Zhu found most unbelievable happened.
When the emperor woke up, everyone knelt down and kowtowed. At that moment, whether it was Qin Zhu's loyal followers or Qin Mai's trusted aides, they were all extremely respectful in front of the Emperor. Although the emperor seemed quite weak and even his face was extremely pale. Even when he needed someone to support him when he walked, the emperor's aura was just like a dragon and tiger's as it spread outwards, causing everyone's hearts to sink.
No one would have thought that an emperor would appear at this time, and no one would expect that the emperor who had been asleep for so long would actually awaken at this moment.
Seeing that, Elder Qing Yun and the rest finally understood why Qin Shaojie wanted to buy two hours, because he was waiting, waiting for the Emperor to awaken!
When he thought of how he almost killed Qin Shaojie and the entire Qin Mai team, countless cold sweat seeped out of Qing Yun's back.
At this moment, it could be considered as not explaining what was wrong with Qin Zhu, but it definitely could be said that Qin Mai was innocent. Furthermore, she was trying to think of all means to make the Emperor wake up. After today, no matter what, Qin Mai's position in the entire Great Yan Dynasty would skyrocket once again.
Qin Zhu's eyes continuously flickered at this moment. It was as if all his strength had been sucked out of him as she stood powerlessly in midair. Her body, which she forcefully endured, trembled inside her clothes. This kind of trembling was too complicated. There was fear towards the emperor. After all, he was the crown prince and was well aware of the Emperor's methods. Killing people was as common as hemp, and even having flesh and blood did not have much meaning or value in his eyes.
There were also those who were furious about the whole thing, and they were on the verge of failure! The situation he was most worried about had finally happened! He had thought of ten thousand possibilities, but there was no such thing as the Emperor awakening. After all, that life and death realm expert back then had clearly guaranteed that he wouldn't awaken. Even if the Life and death level expert were to personally make a move, it might be able to awaken him, but it wouldn't be like this.
He was not sure what exactly had happened. In the short span of a few days, Qin Mai and the others had done something to the Emperor.
The only thing he was sure of was that he had lost, and this time he had lost quite thoroughly. From then on, Qin Mai's position in the Great Yan Dynasty was lower than even if he himself was the crown prince. The Great Yan Dynasty that he had painstakingly built up this year, the influence that he had nurtured would be completely destroyed with the appearance of the Emperor. The court officials who had been reprised by him would never treat him well in the future.
Right now, the only reason why he could stand here was because he was still betting. He did not know that all of this had anything to do with him.
After all, he was extremely secretive, and other than himself, he believed that no one else in the Great Yan Dynasty would know.
As long as he continued to live, there would be a chance.
The eyes they looked at Qin Shaojie vaguely, were already filled with an unprecedented killing intent. The reason why his great cause had been ruined was all because of Qin Shaojie! If it wasn't for him, he would have long been in charge of the world!
On the other side, the one who was the opposite of Qin Zhu, was Qin Mai!
At this moment, his expression was extremely excited, everything was as Qin Shaojie had said, the Emperor had finally awakened. The situation today was easily resolved. Unless Qin Zhu had absolute strength, he wouldn't dare to make a move even if he was given the guts.
Most importantly, although the Emperor was saved by Qin Shaojie, Qin Shaojie was his own faction!
From the looks of it, everything that he had escaped from, everything that he had endured in front of Qin Zhu, were all worth it.
The emperor's astonishing talent did not disappear for a long time. In that instant, the entire valley became completely silent. Everyone neatly kneeled in front of the emperor. Even though he was heavily injured, the world was still his. He could still decide the life and death of these people with a single word.
Xiao Yan's gaze swept over these corpses. However, there was not the slightest emotion. In this lifetime, he did not know how many people he had killed and he did not know how many lives he had seen. Forget about all of these, Three Spiritual Realms alone would not have too much of an impact on him either.
The core of the Emperor's Art lay in the art of controlling people, firmly capturing all the living beings in the world in his hands!
