Chapter 8: I Must Protect You!
“Great poem!” Ji Mingyue cheered, his voice filled with joy and emotion.
Indeed, I did not misjudge Ye Qing. He is a true gentleman, a real hero!
There is nothing more sincere than paying the price with one’s life.
Ye Ning’s choice made Ji Mingyue feel a sense of heaviness, along with a hint of shame.
Ye Ning’s poem said to repay the emperor’s kindness and dare to die for the emperor.
But in reality, Ji Mingyue had long forgotten about Ye Ning.
This was not his fault.
For an emperor, the talents selected through the imperial examinations were like fish crossing the river. How could they all be remembered?
Although Ye Ning became a Jinshi scholar, he was neither outstanding nor from a noble family, so it was normal not to be remembered.
“He is willing to die for me, but before today, I didn’t even know his name…” Ji Mingyue bit his lip, his emotions mixed.
He made an important decision.
“You do not disappoint me, and I will not disappoint you. Even if it means giving up the throne, I will protect you today!”
This decision was extremely bold.
It could even be said to be impulsive.
As an emperor, he should naturally consider the interests of the country, and personal feelings should not be magnified.
However, Ji Mingyue decided like this.
His sensibility surpassed his rationality.
In his opinion, if he couldn’t even protect a loyal and righteous man like Ye Qing, what was the point of sitting on this throne?
“Indeed, it is a great poem.”
Cao Meng silently recited a few sentences, admiringly looking at Ye Ning.
He sheathed his sword and returned to his position, closing his eyes.
He didn’t intend to participate in today’s affairs anymore.
While the Immortal Sect divided Great Zhou together, this was the overall situation.
But it didn’t mean there were no conflicts within the Immortal Sect.
In fact, there were deep grievances among the six kings, and there were often conflicts at the border.
The Feather Transformation Sect wanted to support the Seventh Kingdom to enter the game. Originally, they had little to do with them, as each of the six kings had their own Immortal Sect behind them.
The reason for assisting the Feather Transformation Sect was only for the sake of the overall situation.
And now, he had done what he had to do and said what he had to say, and the rest had nothing to do with him.
That was the Feather Transformation Sect’s business, and they should solve it themselves.
“I can’t bear to kill a righteous man with my sword!” He closed his eyes, but his heart was complicated.
Today, I have recognized a true hero. How admirable!
The hero refuses to join my kingdom. What a pity!
Among the six kingdoms, Wei Kingdom was the strongest, and the position of the King of Wei was the highest.
The other kings saw him step back and followed suit, no longer speaking much.
After all, they had all tried their best, which could be considered as an explanation to the Feather Transformation Sect. Whether things succeeded or not, they couldn’t rely entirely on them, right?
Moreover, deep down in their hearts, they might not want to see the Seventh Kingdom emerge.
One more kingdom meant one more competitor.
The civil and military officials fell silent.
The six kings stopped talking.
Ye Ning was completely bewildered.
“What’s going on?”
He blinked his eyes.
He felt inexplicable.
Could it be that you officials are all crazy?
I’ve been trying my best to provoke you, acting so arrogant, and you’re not taking out your swords to kill me?
You can endure this!?
Is there something wrong with me, or is there something wrong with you?
Ye Ning was confused. This couldn’t be true. So, none of the people here could kill him?
No!
There was still one person!Fiind upd𝒂ted 𝒏ovels on n𝒐/v/elbin(.)co/m
He thought of He Yuan!
Yes, the civil and military officials were just yes-men, unable to stand out.
Although the six kings were arrogant, they still outwardly obeyed Great Zhou, and there must be concerns in their hearts about tearing their faces apart.
But the true immortal had no such concerns!
The Immortal Sect was the most arrogant and proud force in this world.
If others could endure, the Immortal Sect certainly couldn’t!
“It seems that to kill me, the Immortal Sect must take action!”
Ye Ning sighed inwardly.
As he expected, the Immortal Sect couldn’t endure it.
In fact, at this moment, He Yuan was already furious.
The silent six kings conveyed a signal that made him uneasy.
“These six guys don’t want to see the Feather Transformation Sect involved!”
He thought more, farther.
If the six kings thought like this, maybe the Immortal Sect behind them also thought so!
After all, one more force meant one less share of the pie!
“Don’t even think about stopping our sect’s plan!” He Yuan was furious.
His icy eyes stared at Ye Ning.
The plan that had been going smoothly was disrupted because of this insignificant ant in front of him!
A mere ant even dared to try to stop me?
He Yuan directly felt the urge to kill. The task he was executing was just a simple one. If he messed it up, how could he raise his head when he returned to the sect?
“Ant, now hand over the imperial seal, and I will leave you with a complete corpse. Otherwise, I will destroy your soul!”
He shook the duster in his hand.
Each word was like a sharp sword, extremely sharp, making everyone present feel a chill.
Some were so frightened that their teeth chattered and their legs trembled.
“It’s over!” Eunuch Liu Jin despaired.
Lord Ye, you shouldn’t have done this. How can you contend with the Immortal Sect?
“True Immortal, please don’t hurt him!”
Ji Mingyue became nervous, stood up suddenly, and tried to stop him.
However, He Yuan ignored their words.
Standing high above, he looked down at Ye Ning, this mortal who knew nothing about cultivation, was nothing in his eyes.
To put it bluntly, killing him would dirty his hands.
“I’ll give you three breaths to consider. If you dare to refuse, I will let you know the price of refusing the Immortal Sect!”
As a cultivator, he had torture methods that ordinary people couldn’t imagine.
Enough to make people never be able to escape!
“Alas, it’s a pity that the arm is still unable to twist the thigh.”
“Offending the six kings, there is still a chance of survival, but offending the Immortal Sect, death is certain!”
“The dignity of the Immortal Sect cannot be offended!”
The people present felt very complicated in their hearts.
Before this, they were still opposed to Ye Ning’s position, but now that they saw he was going to die, they couldn’t help but feel a little regretful.
True heroes in the world were still rare!
“Hahaha!”
But unexpectedly, facing the pressure from the Immortal Sect, Ye Ning was not afraid at all. Instead, he seemed even more excited.
“The Immortal Sect is ruthless, treating mortals like pigs and dogs!
“Immortals do not die, great thieves will not cease!
“The Immortal Sect is the root of chaos in this world. You traitors, everyone must be exterminated. Do you think I will yield to you!?”
His words were resounding, each carrying a shocking impact!
