The poorest member of the Imperial Guard, the Empress begged me to embezzle.

"Not bad, your cultivation level has improved once again, and you have ten more Blissful Ascension Pills."

Chu Xiu thought to himself, feeling extremely satisfied.

"The Yellow Heaven Sect is indeed quite powerful."

"They produced two immortal beings with ease."

"It is still unknown how many experts at the Human Immortal Realm are hidden in the governor's mansion."

Chu Xiu looked towards the direction of the Qingzhou military camp and said.

After a pause, Chu Xiu suddenly said, "Qin Lie, do you know the cultivation level of these two Immortal Realm cultivators?"

Swish!

Qin Lie appeared before Chu Xiu as if out of thin air, and said respectfully, "Reporting to the Marquis, I understand."

Indeed, Qin Lie also infiltrated Qingzhou City with Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu relied on the Five Elements Escape Technique, while Qin Lie relied on his own strength.

With Qin Lie's cultivation level at the peak of the ninth level of the Immortal Realm, even if the entire Qingzhou City were set up like an iron barrel, it still wouldn't be able to stop him from entering.

"Oh?"

Chu Xiu looked at Qin Lie with great interest.

"The cultivation level of Elder Huangtian Sect is at the peak of the ninth level of the Human Immortal Realm, just like mine."

"This person is very strong; even I, as his subordinate, am not confident in his abilities."

"Another expert from the Yellow Heaven Sect has just stepped into the Human Immortal Realm, and is at the Lesser Completion of the First Level of the Human Immortal Realm."

"However, I suspect that there are probably not many experts at the Immortal Realm level in the governor's mansion."

"No matter where they are, those in the Human Immortal Realm are already truly peerless masters."

"Although the Huangtian Sect is hiding extremely powerful strength, it is impossible for the Huangtian Sect to concentrate all its strength in Qingzhou."

"The Huangtian Sect's rebellion in Qingzhou is more likely a test of our Great Zhou Dynasty."

"Another option is to use the Yellow Heaven Sect in Qingzhou to tie down our Great Zhou Dynasty's army, allowing the Yellow Heaven Sect to take action elsewhere."

Qin Lie said with a solemn expression.

"Qin Lie, your analysis is excellent."

Chu Xiu smiled slightly and said with an expression of appreciation.

really.

None of those who have cultivated for many years and reached the realm of human immortals are simple.

A truly foolish person could not possibly cultivate to this level.

Perhaps when one's cultivation level is low, one can achieve it simply by relying on talent and hard work.

However, to reach the Celestial Realm, or even higher, one needs sufficient comprehension.

Generally, the higher one's intelligence, the higher one's comprehension.

"You flatter me, Your Excellency."

"I was merely expressing my own opinion."

"Whether it is really so or not, I cannot guarantee."

"It still needs the Marquis's judgment."

Qin Lie said with a humble expression.

"Qin Lie, this Yellow Heaven Sect elder's cultivation level is the same as yours."

"I don't need you to kill him, I just need you to help me restrain him. Are you confident in your abilities?"

Chu Xiu smiled gently and looked at Qin Lie, asking a question.

As a peak ninth-level Human Immortal, Su Qinghe was someone Chu Xiu couldn't kill even if he used all his trump cards.

The gap is simply too large.

Unless his cultivation level reaches the peak of the ninth level of the Celestial Realm, and he can rely on the Heavenly Escape Sword Technique and the True Meaning of Space, he can give it a try.

However, even if they can't kill Su Qinghe, they can eliminate all the direct descendants of the Yellow Heaven Sect that Su Qinghe brought from the governor's mansion.

Cut off the wings of the Yellow Heaven Sect and weaken its strength!

"Reporting to the Marquis, this man's cultivation level is the same as mine. It won't be easy for me to kill him, but it's a piece of cake to restrain him!"

"If I can't even do this much, I have no face to be the head of the Qin family of Huaiyin!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Lie revealed a proud expression on his face and said.

Although the Qin family of Huaiyin no longer dared to use, or rather, were embarrassed to use, the name of the "Number One Sword Technique Under Heaven".

However, the swordsmanship passed down by the Qin family of Huaiyin is one of the most top-tier swordsmanships in the entire world.

With the world's best swordsmanship, why would he be afraid of Su Qinghe?

"Okay, that's enough!"

A glint of light flashed in Chu Xiu's eyes. He stood up abruptly, put his hands behind his back, and spoke.

"My lord, shall we make our move now?"

Qin Lie paused for a moment, then looked at Chu Xiu and asked.

"Not urgent."

"Wait a little longer, now is definitely when they are most heavily guarded."

Chu Xiu smiled slightly and said, "Moreover, by the afternoon, our elite Imperial Guards and the capital garrison should also be able to arrive outside Qingzhou City."

We'll take action then.

"Yes, Your subordinate obeys."

Upon hearing this, Qin Lie spoke with utmost respect.

The setting sun was like blood, and the green mountains were like a sea.

The imperial garrison arrived in a mighty and imposing manner, surrounding the entire city of Qingzhou.

In addition to the main force of the Beijing Garrison, Fang Heng and his two companions also arrived outside Qingzhou City with three thousand elite Imperial Guards.

The commander's tent of the Beijing garrison.

General Zhao Wuyang of the Beijing Garrison sat in the main seat, with Xie Xuan, the deputy general of the Beijing Garrison, sitting to his left.

On the right are Fang Heng, Pei Shiji, and Luo Tianxi.

"Commander Fang, is there any news of the Marquis?"

Zhao Wuyang looked at Fang Heng and asked him a question.

"Reporting to General Zhao, we have not yet received any news from the Marquis."

"The Marquis must have infiltrated Qingzhou City."

Fang Heng considered for a moment, then cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Zhao Wuyang and said.

"Since there is no news from the Marquis for the time being, let's hold back and surround him without attacking."

Zhao Wuyang pondered for a moment and said, "We will attack Qingzhou City after the Marquis has received news."

this moment.

Keng!

A powerful, resounding sword cry echoed above the state army camp.

A terrifying sword aura slashed down towards the state army camp.

"presumptuous!"

"You think you can raid my camp while I'm already here commanding it?"

"Yellow Heaven Divine Palm!"

A cold shout rang out from the state army camp. Su Qinghe leaped into the air from the command tent and struck out with a palm strike at the sword energy from a distance.

A terrifying palm strike met the sword energy head-on.

Boom!

The deafening roar echoed throughout the heavens and earth, and even the entire city of Qingzhou heard the sound.

Xiao Qingcang looked from the governor's mansion toward the direction of the state army camp, as if he could see it even though it was far away.

This sword energy was blocked by Su Qinghe's palm.

Therefore, it did not pose any threat to the state military compound.

Two figures hovered in the sky.

It was Su Qinghe and Qin Lie.

One by one, figures emerged from the command tent.

It was the entire Qingzhou military commander and a group of Huangtian Sect experts.

Clearly, they had been staying with Su Qinghe, which was to protect their safety, fearing that Chu Xiu might infiltrate the camp again to carry out an assassination.

"Are you Qin Lie of the Qin family of Huaiyin?"

Su Qinghe stared at Qin Lie with a look of shock on his face, and said with great surprise and doubt.

After all, Qin Lie had a grudge against the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

Or perhaps they have a grudge against Chu Xiu.

As a result, Qin Lie now seems to be working for the Embroidered Uniform Guard.

How could he not shock Su Qinghe?

"I never expected you to know me!"

Qin Lie's face was grim, his eyes filled with anger, resentment, helplessness, and frustration. He said in a muffled voice, "Since you recognize me, then you are even more deserving of death!"
