Chapter 1858: Chapter 1857: This Night’s Blade Truly Dazzles

Xu Zimei stared at Gang Yan, speaking every word deliberately.

“Do you want to be the king of the Hundred Clans?”

As soon as these words were spoken, Gang Yan laughed loudly as if he had heard a big joke.

“Kid, I thought you were someone important.

Turns out you’re just a boastful little brat.”

Gang Yan snorted coldly.

“King of the Hundred Clans, who dares to speak such words? What are you?”

Xu Zimei wasn’t angry.

He merely waved his large hand lightly.

An invisible force directly bound Gang Yan.

Painstakingly, Gang Yan tried to break free, but his body seemed to be gripped by an invisible powerful hand, choking him and making it difficult to breathe.

“I don’t want to say too much; you just need to know that your life and death are at my whim.”

“I… didn’t offend you, did I?” Gang Yan struggled to say.

“Then how about you owe me a hand?” Xu Zimei countered.

“I never asked you to help me,” Gang Yan replied.

“The gift I give you, you must accept,” Xu Zimei said calmly.

“Refusing is death, but if you obey me, you can live here in the Divine Land smoothly.”

“Who do you think you are?” Gang Yan was almost out of breath.

“Did King Qin send you?”

“What’s King Qin anyway? Don’t you want to rule the Hundred Clans and share the world with him?”

Xu Zimei asked.

“Who wouldn’t want that, but I don’t have that ability. Even if you want to help me, I need to know your ability first.

Otherwise, my death is minor, but implicating my Gangmeng Clan would be truly regrettable.”

Gang Yan said.

Although he gets angry easily and can act recklessly,

he is absolutely loyal to his race.

The current Hundred Clans have surrendered under the human race’s leadership.

If anyone wants to emerge independently, they’d likely be met with a thunderous strike from the entire human race.

After speaking, Gang Yan felt that the force restraining his body had disappeared.

He fell to the ground, gasping heavily, coughing constantly.

“Follow me,” Xu Zimei said.

“Why?” Gang Yan asked.

“Come with me to the Great Qin Imperial Palace and see my power,” Xu Zimei said.

He waved his large hand, conjuring two masks, and placed them on their faces.

At present, Xu Zimei doesn’t want to reveal his identity.

After a brief moment of thought, Gang Yan decided to follow Xu Zimei.

The two of them stepped into the air and strolled toward the Imperial Palace.

“Are there any forbidden areas within the Great Qin Imperial Palace?” Xu Zimei asked.

“Or, who is the strongest in Great Qin?”

“There are many forbidden areas in the palace, including the various concubines’ chambers and the Empress’s palace, which cannot be entered casually.

Great Qin also has a treasure vault.”

Gang Yan said.

“As for the strongest, on the surface, it’s naturally King Qin.

King Qin is also one of the strongest in the human race, ruling the entire mortal world, only the Heavenly Court can stand against him.

But I know some secrets.

There is an ancestor in the Qin Country with the surname Ying, his strength is the most powerful.

But he has always lived in seclusion and has never shown himself.”

“Then I’ll take you to the treasure vault,” Xu Zimei said.

“And meet this so-called strongest of the human race.”

“You’re crazy,” Gang Yan said in horror.

“The palace is an extremely dangerous place, entering it means certain death.”

“I have slain countless beasts, what’s there to be afraid of,” Xu Zimei shook his head.

With Gang Yan in his grip, he directly tore through space.

In an instant, they made a great teleportation, arriving at the entrance of the palace’s treasure vault.

The Great Qin has been established for thousands of years, and the treasures collected are countless.

All around the vault, groups of soldiers from the Golden Lion Legion guarded and patrolled the area.

It is known that the Golden Lion Legion is Great Qin’s elite force, only a thousand strong.

There were over three hundred of them here, showing how important the vault was.

Xu Zimei didn’t plan to hide his identity, he directly showed himself.

“Who goes there?” A soft shout, like a lion’s roar.

All the soldiers of the Golden Lion Legion wore lion masks and golden armor, exuding extraordinary momentum.

“The treasure vault is a restricted area, how dare you trespass here, seize him!”

A loud shout, and dozens of men rushed forward.

The Golden Lion Guards rushed forward, their bodies enveloped in a golden glow, each holding lion-head ring swords.

Gang Yan looked on gravely.

Though he was strong, he still trembled facing the Golden Lion Legion.

Xu Zimei simply waved casually.

A powerful force, like a storm, swept dozens of them away.

With another punch.

The vault door, made of the toughest material, shut directly.

All achieved through pure brute force.

“Strong enemy, form the Golden Lion Battle Array, request reinforcements.”

The remaining hundreds of the Golden Lion Legion were not flustered upon seeing this.

They had been specially trained for patrols, putting their lives on the line for the Royal Family, their lives and deaths long forgotten.

A flare shot into the sky, awaking the sleep-bound Great Qin Imperial Palace.

The long horn sounds of a lion’s roar were blown, a rhythm signifying a formidable enemy.

Hundreds of Golden Lion Guards formed the battle array, their momentum soaring like clouds, rising immeasurably in levels.

In the distant darkness, the palace’s guards began to approach.

Seeing the situation, surrounded on all sides, they were completely encircled.

Gang Yan was dumbstruck.

“It’s over, it’s over, we’re doomed this time.”

“Why panic,” Xu Zimei turned his head, glancing at him.

The Golden Lion Legion’s battle array opened, and a giant golden lion emerged from it.

The golden lion stood at least a kilometer tall, its body emitting golden halos.

When it raised its head, the entire palace could see it.

As it roared, its voice echoed to the skies.

“Kill,” accompanied by the lion’s roar and the hundreds of Golden Lion Guards’ battle cries.

The golden lion charged directly at Xu Zimei.

No fancy techniques, at a certain level, it came down to a contest of strength.

“The knives at night should be quite dazzling.”

Xu Zimei murmured to himself.

Gang Yan, already terrified, stuttered, “At a time like this, you’re still… talking nonsense.”

“Swoosh”—a sound.

A blade glinted in the darkness, like a dim void cut across the heavens, flashing through this world.

The next moment, the golden lion let out a mournful cry.

Its massive body was torn apart.

All the Golden Lion Guards present spat a mouthful of blood and collapsed unconscious.

“Is this blade sharp enough?” Xu Zimei looked at Gang Yan.

It took a while for Gang Yan to come to his senses.

“Sharp, damn sharp.”

“Go check out the vault,” Xu Zimei said.

“I believe you, I believe you, let’s not press our luck any further,” Gang Yan pleaded.

“Right now it’s only the Golden Lion Guards, once the real strong ones arrive, we won’t be able to leave.”

“You still don’t believe me,” Xu Zimei said.

“I do, but what if something goes wrong,” Gang Yan was almost in tears.
