Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

Eight years ago, Jiang Chengdao suddenly disappeared without warning, as if he had disappeared from the world.

No matter how much manpower was used to search, Xiuyiwei and Zhuxiesi came out in full force, but they could not find even a single trace.

Suffering such a heavy blow suddenly, Jiang Chengwan's mother-in-law fell ill and soon died of depression.

Before she died, she didn't tell Jiang Chengwan anything, she just asked her to take good care of herself.

But Jiang Chengwan still secretly vowed in his heart that no matter what, whether he was alive or dead, he must find his brother and give an explanation to his mother and concubine.

However, what she didn't expect was that after accidentally obtaining the complete inheritance of the holy way in the jade seal, she completed her vow.

At the same time, she also learned the truth behind the disappearance of her brother who had always been filial and respectful in her impression.

A truth about the holy relics, the four holy realms of Central Continent and the holy king that only the Supreme is qualified to know.

Jiang Chengdao was neither kidnapped nor assassinated, but was accidentally selected by the holy relic that had been passed down from generation to generation in the northern holy realm of Central Continent - [Nine Nethers], and was then summoned to the Cangming Realm to become one of the four great holy kings of Central Continent. King Cangming.

The so-called holy realm is the area where the supreme formation built by saints in ancient times was located to suppress evil spirits throughout the ages.

The Holy Realm is filled with all kinds of demons and ghosts that have suppressed most of their power but are able to reincarnate indefinitely. They will try their best to use all their strength to kill the creatures in the Holy Realm and weaken the power of the formation.

The meaning of the Holy King's existence is to protect the people of the Holy Land and prevent evil spirits from breaking through the formation and causing harm to the world.

This is a secret that only the Holy King himself, the Supreme Being, and a very small number of beings know.

The world only knows that the holy relics contain extremely powerful power. Every holy king selected by the holy relics is the strongest person in the world. They are so powerful that even if the most prosperous dynasty uses the power of the whole country to attack the holy realm, it cannot shake its existence. situation.

It's just that this power can basically only be used within the holy territory, otherwise it will be counterattacked by heaven.

So no matter what happens outside the holy realm, they won't care.

It doesn’t matter if it’s a troubled time or a prosperous time.

Peasant uprisings, warlord unrest, and even dynastic changes.

No matter how the outside world changes, the Holy Land will not react and remain indifferent.

Therefore, the Four Realms Land has been an extremely special existence in all dynasties.

Each holy land is equivalent to a completely independent country.

Although nominally a vassal state of the imperial court, in fact they were neither under the jurisdiction of the imperial court nor involved in anything that happened in the outside world. They would only maintain the most basic vassal state policies and interactions.

Moreover, they only recognize the dynasty that holds the Jade Seal. Whoever holds the Jade Seal is orthodox. Changing dynasties will not have any impact on them, and this precisely contributes to the inheritance of the legal system of the unified dynasty in Central Continent.

Over time, the dominant figures no longer cared about this non-threatening piece of bones.

It was precisely because the Holy King was extremely powerful that Jiang Chengwan had a chance to make a comeback.

If it were not for the Holy King, a trump card that no one expected, as a support, if it were not for the fact that King Cangming, one of the four Holy Kings, was her biological brother and was willing to obey her orders unconditionally, no matter how thoughtful and intelligent Jiang Chengwan was, It is absolutely impossible for them to have a chance to make a comeback under the nose of Queen Mother Zhao.

After all, even if you are the Supreme, you must have enough strength if you want to command the Holy King.

The strength in this aspect does not refer to one's own force, skills, and techniques, but the authority, general trend, belief, control, etc. of the ruler.

And she is a puppet emperor with fart authority.

With her current strength, it would be difficult for her to even support the Holy King to exert [-]% of his strength.

If he doesn't have enough strength, even if he is the Supreme, the Holy King can ignore him, so whether to help her or not depends entirely on the Holy King's own free will.

Or maybe she is really the human emperor destined to be her destiny. When she is in desperate situation, one of the four holy kings who can only save her happens to be her only relative now...

As she thought about it, the brother in her memory who tried his best to protect her gradually overlapped with the bloody and heroic Supreme Saint King in front of her.

Finally the two become one.

At this time, Jiang Chengdao raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said slowly in a magnetic voice: "The feeling that Your Majesty gives to Wei Chen is no longer the little girl who only hid behind Wei Chen and shivered, in every sense. "

Hearing this, Jiang Chengwan's eyes narrowed slightly as he didn't know what he thought of.

"Because I want to live."

As if he could feel the cruelty and weight of these words, the smile on Jiang Chengdao's face gradually faded.

"Feel sorry."

Jiang Chengwan shook his head, "Brother, don't worry, this is not your fault."

Jiang Chengdao smiled slightly, then turned his head and looked at the Xuanwu Guards filing out of the window.

"It's almost time to end things with that woman."

"Ah."

Jiang Chengwan nodded, then raised his hands, and quickly transformed his fingers into spells.

Waves of powerful Holy Spirit power continuously surged out of Miaoman's body, and then she quickly sank into the jade seal under the pull of a huge force.

A few breaths later, with the activation of the Holy Spirit Technique, countless light particles suddenly shot out from the jade seal.

Then the light particles continued to gather, and in the blink of an eye they formed nine fist-sized, rotating golden balls of light.

Jiang Chengwan put down his hand and looked around at the golden light balls revolving around the jade seal. Then his eyes suddenly condensed and the Holy Spirit power exploded again. A layer of dense ancient mantras appeared on the surface of all the light balls at the same time.

At the same time, the twenty gates in all directions of Luojing City suddenly trembled strangely.

"what happened?!"

The city gate guards looked around in horror.

However, before they could find anything unusual, several dull and heavy sounds suddenly came from the corridor.

Boom boom boom! !

The seven thick city gates suddenly fell heavily.

Not only that, on every city gate, there is a formation with the word "sealing" in the middle, slowly flowing around.

When the last city gate fell, the tops of the city towers in the four directions suddenly burst into light pillars rising into the sky, and then a golden translucent energy shield quickly rose in the middle of each light pillar, completely covering the entire Luojing. , completely isolating it from the outside world.

At this time, Luojing is like a closed small world. Without special means, not even a fly, let alone a bird, can fly in, let alone fly out.

The total number of imperial troops stationed in Luojing, including the Yulin Guards, is less than 20.

Chapter 7

No one could have imagined that an army that was completely outside the control of the Queen Mother would appear out of thin air in Luojing, or in Ziji City.

The sudden appearance of the Xuanwu Guard caught everyone off guard and controlled most of Ziji City in a very short period of time.

Although the Queen Mother reacted quickly, she quickly summoned tens of thousands of Yulin guards stationed in Ziji City to stop them. At the same time, they used secret techniques to spread the news and mobilized the Imperial Guards from inside and outside Luojing to rush to Ziji City to encircle and suppress the Xuanwu Guards.

However, the Xuanwu Guards, who have been fighting against evil spirits all year round, have terrifying combat power that even the barbarian aliens are afraid of. However, the Yulin Guards have been in peace for a long time, and the Empress Dowager Zhao has adopted relatively loose control measures against them in order to win over the generals in the capital. , resulting in a relatively loose armament in Beijing and a rather limited combat power, which is just stronger than the ordinary army.

What's more, in addition to being well-equipped, the Xuanwu Guards also have the blessings of Holy Spirit spells unique to the Four Holy Kings, which can greatly increase their combat power.

Whether it is the equipment, the strength of the generals, or the ability of the generals who command the army, the Yulin Guards are at a disadvantage and cannot stop the Xuanwu Guards from advancing!

The two sides just met each other, and the Yulin Guards lost [-]%, and not long after the head-on battle, another [-]% fell. Even the generals of the unified army and several side generals were killed by a stern-faced young general in the Xuanwu Guards. Killed by arrows.

With their general killed and more than [-]% of their troops reduced, the Habayashi Guards could no longer hold on and simply collapsed and fled.

The casualties of the Xuanwu Guards were only a few hundred.

When Zhao Feifan led a battalion of [-] warriors to rush outside Ziji City, what he saw was tens of thousands of Yulin Guards wearing extremely gorgeous armor being chased to the outside of Xuanji Gate by thousands of Xuanjia troops.

Looking up subconsciously, Zhao Feifan suddenly discovered that there were blood stains everywhere on the Xuanji Gate. The Xuanfeng flag that originally symbolized the majesty of the Queen Mother had been cut down, and was replaced by a black dragon flag exuding white mist. In the middle of the black dragon flag, "Cang" The two big characters "溟" exude a faint light and are extremely conspicuous.

Under the dragon flag, Cangming Saint King Jiang Chengdao crossed his arms and stared at the one-sided battle below.

Those sharp and cold eyes were full of indifference to life, as if what was being slaughtered by the Xuanwu Guards below was not a single human life, but a group of chickens and dogs.

Seeing tens of thousands of imperial guards arriving, there was no trace of panic in his eyes. Instead, he looked at the leader Zhao Feifan with contempt.

At this time, the fleeing Yulin guards saw the warrior camp and found out that it was their own queen. As if they saw a life-saving straw, they ran to where Zhao Feifan was with all their lives.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Feifan's expression suddenly changed, but King Cangming on the high wall raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a cold smile.

Although Zhao Feifan couldn't figure out what was going on in Ziji City, he knew that the current battle situation was very unfavorable to his own side. If the collapsed Yulin Guards were allowed to attack the Warrior Camp, the Xuanwu Guards who were chasing them would definitely take advantage of the situation to cover them up, and the consequences would be disastrous.

He quickly shouted to the Yulin Guards, asking them to calm down and not to shake the well-organized warrior battalion and give the enemy an opportunity.

However, how could Yulinwei, who was brave enough to be killed, listen?

At this time, they only hated their parents for losing two legs, and they all wanted to let the Warrior Battalion stop the extremely powerful Xuanjia Army so that they could escape for their lives.

If he is a veteran with many battles and experience, he will not waste his energy shouting. Instead, he will decisively order the entire army to form a formation and kill all living creatures that dare to rush into the formation. He will use his fierce killing intent to deter these irrational people. to defeat the troops and at the same time prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation to attack.

It's a pity that although Zhao Feifan is the new Fengbo, his title was not earned by using real swords and guns on the battlefield, but because he is a contemporary young talent of the Zhao family, and the Queen Mother Zhao just needs to be placed in the Forbidden Army. Sealed by one's own people.

Therefore, his understanding of military affairs was only the descriptions in books, and he did not have a clear understanding of the cruelty of the battlefield.

So he hesitated for a while.

And just this small moment of hesitation ruined the backup plan that the cautious Empress Dowager Zhao had left behind just in case.

"Absolute Shadow!"

King Cangming suddenly shouted loudly.

The next second, as his words fell, a terrifying roar suddenly sounded from behind, and then a tall, black horse with red eyes suddenly sprang out from behind the female wall and came to his side at an extremely fast speed. , slightly lowering his body in an extremely obedient manner.

King Cangming didn't pause at all, stepped onto his horse, and took the spear handed over by the soldiers at the side.

"The whole army obeys!"

After getting on the horse, he suddenly shouted and tightened his grip on the horse's belly.

The Jueying Horse was very understanding of human nature, and immediately neighed, raised its front hooves high, and stepped hard on the thick city wall.

boom!

The thick city wall shattered directly under this kick. Then, with the huge force of the rebound, the Jueying Horse jumped up, and then turned into a black light, hitting Xuanwu who was chasing Yu Linwei heavily. In front of Wei, the powerful force actually smashed a wide pit into the ground.

"Follow me and kill the national traitors!!"

The simple and clear command, the voice containing boundless murderous intent, rang in everyone's ears in an instant.

All the soldiers in the warrior camp shuddered in unison.

As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chengdao took the lead, riding his Jueying Horse and rushing towards the warrior camp not far away that had not yet responded, his spear in his hand glowing with cold light.

Before anyone arrived, a cold light shone in the heart of the warrior camp.
