The Transmigrated Sword Emperor

"How dare you, Song Yangxu, you don't care about being alone?"

The Emperor stared angrily at Prime Minister Song Yangxu, his eyes burning with killing intent.

As an elder of the three dynasties, Song Yangxu was determined to help his country, but he would often use his seniority to offend the emperor.

How could a ruler of a country allow people to clash against him again and again? Moreover, the emperor had seen Li Dao's sacred art before, so he was afraid that Song Yangxu would anger Li Dao.

"Your Majesty, even if you kill this old official today, this old official will have no complaints. However, this old subject is sincere and loyal to the great Song Dynasty. I hope that Your Majesty can listen to the heartfelt words of this old subject. "

Song Yangxu's body trembled as he knelt on the ground. His forehead touched the floor as he spoke in a low voice.

Looking at the old Song Yangxu, the emperor could not bear to see him. He turned his head away and placed his hands behind his back. It was obvious that he was infuriated by this loyal official.

"Your Majesty, why don't you listen to the words of the elder." Li Dao did not have any ill feelings or prejudice towards this corrupt scholar. Even though the other party was targeting him, he was not that narrow-minded of a person.

If all the civil and military officials in the court were like this old prime minister, then the lives of the commoners would be much easier.

Only then did the Emperor turn his head, but his expression was still extremely unsightly.

"Your Majesty, the words of the Daoist Immortals are illusory. The so-called Daoist Immortals are nothing more than swindlers in the underworld. Moreover, how could there be such a young deity? But you brat, your majesty, don't let the demon deceive you! "

Song Yangxu glared at Li Dao, as he pounded his chest and stamped his feet as he spoke. Saliva flew everywhere from his mouth as he almost pointed it at Li Dao's nose and scolded him.

Li Dao wasn't angry. Although this old man was over 70 years old, if he really counted up, he would think of Li Yao as a great grandpa. There was no need to be emotional because of the doubts of others. If he got angry like this, then Li Dao's mana and supernatural powers would be wasted.

Li Dao remained expressionless as he listened quietly. Lin Mu and the Emperor beside him, however, reacted greatly.

No matter what, Li Dao was a character from Master Lin's ancestor generation. With true ability, how could he allow ordinary people to slander him?

The emperor was angry because he felt that Song Yangxu did not know what was good for him. It was fine if Song Yangxu disagreed with him on normal occasions, but it was difficult for a country to hold the head, and it wasn't easy for him to recruit a true immortal.

"Hey, old thing, you can fart, but you can't spout nonsense! Didn't he hear that the immortal had a face preserving technique? My senior granduncle's sacred art is strong enough to topple mountains and overturn the seas. How dare you slander the stars and hunt the moon? "

Lin Mu was furious, he almost jumped up and scolded Song Yangxu while pointing at him.

"Song Yangxu, it seems like you are being overindulged by the few, resulting in you becoming more and more arrogant. It's fine if you criticize me on a daily basis, but you still dare to be impudent in front of an immortal!" "Men, drag this stubborn old thing down and throw him into the Celestial Prison with fifty canes. He can't be visited unless he's an orphan!"

The Emperor swept his sleeve, and his face was black as he ordered.

Song Yangxu was not afraid, his voice was old and vigorous, and he said, "This old official has died a thousand times before, but it is more important for His Majesty to be deceived by this demon! This old official admonishes you with my death today. Even if I were to be beheaded in this great hall, I will still have the face to meet the late emperor if I enter the Nine Springs! "

The unyielding look on his face caused everyone to be moved. The loyal official kneeled onto the floor.

"Do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"

The emperor stared dangerously at Song Yangxu as his previously black face turned cold.

"If the king wishes for this official to die, this official has no choice but to die. This old official's death is not to be regretted. I hope that His Majesty places great importance on the mountains and rivers!"

Song Yangxu stubbornly held his neck and did not show any signs of weakness as he looked the Emperor in the face. This elder of the three dynasties had shown his staunchness, and really dared to admonish the Emperor in the hall to his death.

Li Dao laughed involuntarily. It was one thing if he was really a swindler, but Song Yangxu was already quite old, even though he said that he was loyal to the end. However, his personality was too stubborn, and he wasn't sure if he had the ability to face the Emperor in such a manner.

Only the current emperor had a weak character. If it was a different emperor, with his character, even a hundred heads wouldn't be enough to cut him down.

"Men! Drag that old thing down and kill him as an example to others!"

No matter how good the emperor's temper was, he had no choice but to do this. Song Yangxu did not give the emperor a way out. If he admitted his wrongs feebly, with the emperor's personality, this matter would be settled. However, he raised his head with a face as if he was facing death, and looked at the emperor as if he was looking at a monarch who had fainted.

The Emperor gave the order and the guards outside the hall entered. They hesitated when they saw Song Yangxu. After all, Song Yangxu was an elder of the three dynasties, it was normal for the guards to hesitate if he showed his power and prestige.

"Your Majesty, please don't. The Prime Minister is doing this for the sake of the Land of the Nine Prefectures. If His Majesty insists on killing the Prime Minister, won't the subjects be disappointed?"

A young man stood up. He was seven feet tall, and his body was as straight as a pine tree. The Cloudy Sun Plate in his hand covered his forehead, and his entire body was filled with righteous energy.

The Emperor turned around to look at the young man, and his difficult expression turned even uglier as he asked. "Imperial Uncle, do you think I'm the one that fainted?"

"This subject doesn't dare. It's just that the Prime Minister has always been willing to serve the land of the land. Even if he were to offend His Majesty, he wouldn't be beheaded. I hope he will think twice before acting!"

"Your Majesty, please reconsider!"

Behind the young man, a few upright officials started pleading for mercy one after another.

The atmosphere in the hall immediately became oppressive, as if a storm was about to break.

"Rebels, all of you are my good subjects!"

Seeing such a scene, the Emperor laughed out of anger as he pointed at the officials within the palace hall and spoke.

"This subject is terrified, but Your Majesty, the Prime Minister did not do anything wrong. He has misled the country, and there have been historical examples. Please take back your orders, Your Majesty!"

The young man held the Cloud Sun Board, but did not raise his head. His voice was filled with righteousness, and every word he spoke contained a power that could move the heart.

"Cao Jingxiu, what do you mean by this?"

The emperor felt somewhat awkward. He looked at Li Dao, unsure of how to manage the situation. He had never imagined that his subject would force him into such a predicament.

At this moment, Li Dao's eyes exploded with a bright light. Just now when the young man stood out, Li Dao felt that something was wrong. The young man's body was shrouded in a layer of mist. However, in the throne room, with his Fa Li being suppressed, Li Dao was unable to see through his background.

At this moment, upon hearing the young man's name, Li Dao finally realized that Cao Jingxiu, Cao Guojiu, was one of the Eight Immortals!

The emperor looked at Li Dao. Naturally, Li Dao could not continue to embarrass the emperor. If the position of the Imperial Advisor could not be fulfilled, how could he lead troops to cross Penglai?

"Everyone, the reason why you all are acting this way is because you all doubt my identity. Now that the plague is everywhere, the people have a hard time living. I have come specifically to solve the problem of the tens of thousands of people. You have only seen my face, how can you tell that I am that swindler and have even charged into His Majesty's hands? "

Li Dao's voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard in every single one of the officials' hearts. All of a sudden, they were stunned.
