Chapter 73 Is it wrong to want to go home?
"No, Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, Your Majesty!!"

The civil servant fell to his knees and kowtowed repeatedly begging for mercy.

He originally wanted to show off his skills in front of His Majesty and dampen the enthusiasm of the envoys from the Kingdom of Qing.

As a result, he didn't perform well and ended up embarrassing himself.

Zhan Doudou said coldly: "It's too late to admit your mistakes now, take him away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, two guards walked into the hall and dragged the civil servant away no matter how he struggled.

Seeing this brutal scene, the Minister of Rites panicked and fell to his knees.

"Your Majesty, this matter has nothing to do with me, I..."

"You still say it has nothing to do with you? As the Minister of Rites, you are guilty of not governing your subordinates strictly. You cannot escape the responsibility for something like this!"

"take away!"

As the Minister of Rites was taken away, the entire main hall fell silent. No one dared to speak, for fear of accidentally angering the emperor.

The court meeting ended here.

At Zhan Doudou's invitation, everyone came to the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

The banquet was very sumptuous.

Under the arrangement of the palace maids, everyone sat down in an orderly manner.

People of distinguished status like Li Chengping, Fan Xian, Wei Zhuang and others sat in the hall.

The soldiers who accompanied them sat around a table outside the hall.

To prevent any accidents, Li Chengping brought Si Lili with him this time.

She was sitting next to Li Chengping, and the moment she looked up, her eyes accidentally collided with Zhan Doudou who was sitting on the throne.

Their eyes met, and they were stunned for a moment.

Li Chengping also noticed that something was wrong with the two of them, raised his glass and smiled faintly.

"Your Majesty, thank you for hosting this banquet. I toast you a glass!"

Zhan Doudou was awakened by the sound and quickly picked up the wine glass to hide his embarrassment.

"You are too polite, Third Prince. I have heard of your name for a long time. Today I am fortunate enough to meet you. This is our fate!"

……

at the same time.

Behind the inn.

Sean sat alone in the yard, the tea beside him had already gone cold.

Looking back at what Li Chengping said last time, he seemed to be thinking about something.

When he was in the dungeon of the Overwatch Council, he looked forward to going back day and night, but now that he has really returned to his hometown, he does not feel happy in his heart.

Time flies by so fast, everything has changed!

He and Ku He had been through life and death together before, but now the other party couldn't wait to kill him!
Until now, he still doesn't understand what happened?
Why did everyone in Qi want to kill him? What did he do wrong?

"Is it wrong to go home?"

Sean muttered.

Looking up at the sky, my eyes were full of confusion.

"Dong dong!"

There was a gentle knock at the gate, and then a servant came in carrying a tray.

Three vegetarian dishes, one meat dish, and a bowl of soup.

The color is attractive and the aroma is fragrant.

"Sir, please eat it while it's hot."

The servant had a smile on his face, but he didn't notice the flash of coldness in Sean's eyes.

Just as the servant put down the last bowl of soup and turned to leave, Sean stood up.

The five fingers were slightly bent, forming an eagle claw shape, and they grabbed directly at the boy's neck.

It seems to be successful.

At the critical moment, the servant dodged Sean's attack with a nimble twist of his body, and a powerful aura burst out from his body, knocking Sean back.

"who are you?"

Sean had a gloomy face and his internal energy was circulating to its maximum. Even so, he was still suppressed by the servant in front of him.

"Oh, I thought you were so powerful, but you are just an upper ninth rank."

The servant sneered and took off the wooden hairpin on his head. With a series of "clicks", the originally short servant changed his appearance in the blink of an eye.

"So it's you. Come to think of it, you even called me uncle-master."

Sean said it easily, but his body under his clothes was tense.

In the dungeon of the Supervisory Council, he had seen the portrait of Lang Tao from Chen Pingping. This guy's eyes and face were so distinctive that he remembered it immediately.

This guy has the strength of the peak ninth rank. If he were in his prime, Sean would naturally not be afraid.

It’s a pity that he had been in the dungeon of the Supervisory Council for so many years, and was fed chronic poison by Chen Pingping, and his cultivation level was only at the upper ninth level.

"If you want to be my uncle, it depends on whether you are qualified!"

Lang Tao sneered.

The two swords at his waist were unsheathed, and he locked onto Sean with murderous intent. He leaped up and chopped down in mid-air.

Sean didn't dare to be careless and treated it with full attention.

More than a dozen rounds passed in the blink of an eye.

Sean hadn't fought anyone for many years, so his movements were a little stiff and his body was scratched in many places.

On the other hand, Lang Tao became more and more courageous as the battle went on. Seeing the blood constantly flowing from Sean's body, his eyes became extremely excited.

"kill!"

Lang Tao roared, leaped up, and slashed directly at Sean's chest.

The murderous intent came, and Sean tried to dodge.

Who would have expected that at the critical moment, blood would surge in his chest and his body would fall to the ground uncontrollably.

Damn it, the chronic poison that Chen Pingping fed me has taken effect!

Sean cursed inwardly.

This chronic poison is very special. It will remain dormant in the body when you are not exercising. Once you are exercising, the poison will be activated.

Along the way, he had fought with others several times, which had triggered the chronic poison in his body.

If he continues like this, he will be dead soon!

Although Lang Tao didn't understand why Sean suddenly gave up resisting, he didn't stop.

Now is a good time to kill Sean!
Just as they were about to get close to the target, at the critical moment, six soldiers appeared and attacked Lang Tao from different angles.

The murderous intent approaching made Lang Tao's hair stand on end.

His intuition told him that if he killed Sean, he would be seriously injured or even lose his life!

He just does things for money, he's not a desperado.

In an instant, Lang Tao made a decision in his mind.

The blade turned and went straight towards the soldier.

These six people are the imperial guards who follow Yan Xiaoyi, and each of them has a cultivation level of the eighth rank.

In the eyes of ordinary people, he is a master, but in the eyes of Lang Tao, he is no different from an ant.

It's just a little bigger than an ant!
"Crash..."

The blade and the knife edge collided, and sparks burst out.

The six soldiers missed their attack and took the opportunity to retreat, putting some distance between themselves and Lang Tao again.

A few rounds down.

The six people were not injured at all, but Lang Tao was a little angry.

He is a master at the peak of the ninth rank, but he can't even deal with six mere eighth rank masters. If this matter gets out, where will he keep his face in the future?

Thinking of this, Lang Tao no longer held back.

The aura of the peak ninth rank completely burst out from his body, the sword light was like a shadow, and his body was split into two, attacking in different directions.

After several more attempts, Lang Tao still failed to kill the soldier.

The only progress was that his blade cut through the soldier's armor.

"What the hell is going on? Why can't I even beat an eighth-rank player?"

For the first time, Lang Tao doubted his own ability.

The banquet was almost over at this moment, and he had no time to waste any more time, so he glared at Sean angrily.

He made a feint and escaped.
