Good luck today

When Feng Qiyu and Qin Yi pushed the dying Ye Li in front of Su Shixia, the battle was already over.

Ye Li brought a lot of people this time.

But the soldiers brought by Qin Yi, together with the troops from the northern border, have already formed an absolute overwhelming number of numbers to crush Ye Li's men.

In addition, Su Shixia deliberately showed weakness to the enemy at the beginning, making the people on Ye Li's side think that they were only dealing with her from beginning to end, which made them relax their vigilance.

The troops led by Qin Yi and Feng Qiyu had hidden themselves in ambush in the surrounding areas in advance, ready to fight to the death at any time.

Under the combined influence of various factors, Ye Li’s defeat can actually be said to have been doomed long ago.

Ye Li obviously realized this as well.

When he was brought to Su Shixia, his emotions had calmed down.

"If you want to kill me, you can do it now."

Ye Li acted as if he was not afraid of death at all.

Su Shixia didn't respond to him. She walked slowly to him and raised her hand to lift the hood on his head.

Qin Yi subconsciously wanted to stop him, but when he met Su Shixia's firm and clear eyes, he pursed his lips, and before stopping Su Shixia, he silently retracted his outstretched hand.

"He doesn't look very good."

Qin Yi said: "I'm afraid of scaring you."

"Just a half-corpse that is neither human nor ghost."

Su Shixia said nonchalantly, "I've seen uglier and more twisted ones, but he can't scare me for now."

While looking at Ye Li's dry face, she reached out to tear off his clothes.

This time, Qin Yi really couldn't help it.

"No matter how generous I am, I can't tolerate you taking off another man's clothes in front of me."

Noticing that Su Shixia's eyes looked at him strangely, he emphasized it again.

"Even if he's not really a man now."

"Don't you just want to see his chest?"

Qin Yi said: "I'll let you see clearly, don't do it yourself."

As he spoke, he drew the sword from his waist and slashed it across Ye Li's chest.

In the blink of an eye, the huge wound on Ye Li's chest was exposed to Su Shixia's sight.

His heart was once pierced by Qin Yi's sword.

His heart should have stopped beating completely, but at this moment, where his heart should have been, there was not only a huge black hole, but also a pitch-black object in the black hole.

"You really don't mind dirt."

Su Shixia glanced at the black thing with disgust.

As if she thought the thing hurt her eyes, she just glanced at it quickly and quickly looked away.

"In order to survive, can we really ignore our dignity and do whatever it takes?"

"Living like a zombie like now, what's the point even if you really defeat me this time and control the world?"

Su Shixia was really confused.

She still doesn't understand why Ye Li is so obsessed with power and status.

After hearing her question, Ye Li just sneered in response.

"I've told you before, you're still as stupid and ridiculous as you were a thousand years ago."

"Yes, a thousand years ago, you were the high priest of the Holy Flame Dynasty. As long as you are still the best in the world in terms of mystical arts, you can firmly hold your position and no one can shake your status." "Even if it is me, I can only remove those unnecessary and empty titles from you, but I can't force you to bow down and submit to me."

"But I'm different."

Ye Li said:
"From the moment I became the emperor of the Holy Flame Dynasty, the entire world rests on my shoulders."

"You have never experienced the feeling of holding great power and ruling the world, so that the rise and fall and survival of the country are all in my hands."

"The princes are ambitious and trying to rebel. You have to be careful all the time to contain them, suppress them, and disintegrate them. You have never experienced the pressure."

"If you don't sit in my position, how can you know my difficulties and my ambitions?!"

"Do you think that I am living in this half-human, half-ghost appearance just because I am afraid of death?"

Ye Li sneered.

"What a joke! I died once a thousand years ago. It's just a matter of victory or defeat, survival or death. I'm not afraid of that!"

"What I care about is only the world!"

"So, the coffin you sealed at the bottom of the sea contains not only your body, but also something else... that can help you unify the world?"

Su Shixia asked.

Ye Li looked up suddenly, his pair of dark eyes fixed on her.

"You've seen that thing on the bottom of the ocean?"

"That's not true."

Su Shixia spread her hands.

"But seeing how much you care about that thing, you've been planning for so many years and sacrificed so many innocent lives for it. I can imagine that thing is very important to you."

"And you yourself said that now you are only thinking about unifying the world."

"So, it's not hard to guess, right? That thing should be the trump card that determines your success or failure."

"If you have never seen that thing, how would you know that what I sealed in the seabed is a coffin?"

Ye Li frowned and asked.

Su Shixia tapped the ice beneath her feet with her toes.

"I have already explained this a long time ago."

"You won't forget so quickly, will you? The Toothfish King is my 'good friend' now, and it is very happy to help me with some 'small favors' within its ability."

"Even if I know the mystical arts, in the end, I am just a mortal with flesh and blood."

Su Shixia said: "If I were to dive into the deep sea beneath the glacier by myself, I would definitely not be able to do it. After all, it would really kill people."

"You and I are indeed different. You only have your ambition to unify the world in your mind, but I think much simpler. I just want to live a peaceful and happy life."

"So, you don't have to doubt it. I know you sealed a coffin at the bottom of the sea only because the Toothfish King saw the coffin and confirmed that you had gone to so much trouble to set up the magic circle just to break the seal on the coffin."

"Other than that, I don't know much."

Ye Ligang secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Su Shixia said, "Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, and even now I still don't know what is sealed in the coffin, but since it is something useful to you, I will definitely not keep it."

"So, you want to destroy that thing?"

The corners of Ye Li's lips curved up.

"If I tell you that you will regret it if you really destroy that thing, will you still dare to bet?"

"If that thing is still there, this entire continent may be able to continue to be peaceful for a hundred years. But if you really destroy it... Haha, then, I don't need to do anything. The four seas will be united and unstoppable!" (End of this chapter)
