C780 The Empress Dowager Made Her Move



C780 The Empress Dowager Made Her Move

2Nan Fengjian let out a long roar and a strong wind swept across the sky. The four Wu Zongs had joined forces to pull him into a state of disintegration. However, he was saved by the pill that he had consumed. Even though he was no longer a tenth of his peak state, he was still a Wu Zong. Even if he stood there and let an Astral Martial Stage kill him, he would not be able to move his body.     1

    

This was definitely a disaster for the people of State of Zhao and Royal City. The ancestors of the royal family had all died in battle. Who else could fight Nan Fengjian?    

    

"This battle is even more difficult than I thought." Nan Fengjian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. His eyes flashed with a trace of coldness. Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth crazily surged towards him, wanting to repair the spiritual energy he lacked.    

    

"I didn't expect that even after paying such a terrible price, I still couldn't get rid of you. You actually have such a rare item like the Heaven Returning Pill. You have really underestimated the Eastern Qin royal family's nurturing of you." The State of Zhao Empress Dowager laughed coldly. At this moment, she was still calm and composed. This caused the heads of the aristocratic families to be secretly shocked. Over the years, the Empress Dowager had gradually retreated behind the scenes. She had handed over the power to King Zhao, but this supreme bearing of a sovereign descended upon the world. King Zhao was still far from being able to compare to the empress dowager.    

    

Everyone had heard of the "Heaven Returning Pill" that the empress dowager of State of Zhao had mentioned. It was a wondrous pill of the Fourth Order. It was said that it could prolong the life of a Wu Zong who had lost his cultivation quickly, but it did not last long. However, Nan Fengjian did not disperse his cultivation on his own. Instead, he was attracted by other Wu Zongs. He still had a long lifespan, so it was not a problem. The Heaven Returning Pill could save him.    

    

A brilliant sword glow bloomed and swept across the sky and land. Nan Fengjian took a deep breath and said, "In order to prevent any further complications, kill!"    

    

As soon as Nan Fengjian's voice faded, the sword radiance carried a monstrous sword might and smashed down. It was like a devil pestle had crushed the world, causing countless people in Royal City to panic. If they wanted to escape, this sword strike could destroy half of Royal City.    

    

Even the masters of the noble families panicked. They wanted to escape, but when they saw the empress dowager, they were incomparably calm, as if they had just taken a pill to calm their hearts.    

    

"Humph!" The empress dowager of the State of Zhao harrumphed coldly, as if she disdained these people who were fleeing in all directions. With a wave of her palm, she took out the Phoenix Feather Cloak. In an instant... The Phoenix Feather Cloak actually turned into a hundred thousand feet long, blocking the attack from below. A blazing phoenix appeared on that cloak, as if it had been reborn from being bathed in raging flames. The phoenix wings covered the sky. "Puchi!" It was torn apart by the sword radiance, but it also counteracted the might of this sword.    

    

"Earth Weapon." Nan Fengjian's expression flickered. He thought to himself that this old lady really wasn't simple. Any random cloak she wore was an Earth Weapon. It seemed like she still had a lot of treasures on her.    

    

"So what if you have an Earth Weapon? Unless you can find a Wu Zong, you will not be able to stop me!" Nan Fengjian said in a cold voice. Although his strength had been damaged, every attack he unleashed was definitely the power of the Expert of Elemental Martial Stage. Unless it was a top grade divine weapon, it would be destroyed sooner or later.    

    

"Since you want to meet Wu Zong so badly, I'll let you meet him." The Empress Dowager of State of Zhao laughed heartily. In an instant, a powerful aura emanated from her body. It enveloped the heavens and the earth, causing everyone's hearts to tremble. They could actually feel the might of Wu Zong!    

    

Elemental Martial Stage Wu Zong!    

    

The eyes of the leaders of the aristocratic families flickered. They did not expect the old lady to be so secretive. Furthermore, she was able to keep her composure. These East Qin Wu Zongs had surrounded her for such a long time. She did not show it until now, only then did she make her move.    

    

"Dragon Subduing Staff!" The old lady's palm trembled. Her staff shone with a dazzling light. It was like a divine phoenix spreading its wings. It was glittering with divine radiance and possessed the power to kill a huge dragon.    

    

The divine patterns shone with a brilliant light, and they revealed an extremely terrifying aura. It was shockingly another divine weapon.    

    

In the Secular Kingdom, Divine Weapons were even rarer than Wu Zongs. However, this empress dowager actually had two Divine Weapons. One was for attacking and the other was for defending. It could be said to be extremely shocking.    

    

At this moment, the Phoenix Feather Cloak was retracted and draped over her body. Although she was only an Elemental Martial Stage Level One Wu Zong, she had two Divine Weapons. Furthermore, Nan Fengjian was already at the end of his rope.    

    

"As expected of the famous Empress Dowager of Secular Kingdom. I have underestimated you!" Nan Fengjian's eyes were incomparably cold, and his entire body was covered with monstrous sword energy. He forcefully raised his blood Qi and slashed out thousands of sharp sword lights. At the same time, a huge sword shadow shrouded the void, ready to strike at any moment. He had killed the people of Royal City.    

    

On the other hand, Empress Dowager Zhao was like an immortal phoenix fighting against the nine heavens. She struck out with the Dragon Subduing Staff. The phoenix shadow covered the boundless void. One Fire Phoenix shadow after another rushed out and shattered the sword light.    

    

In just a moment, Empress Dowager Zhao had already arrived in front of Nan Fengjian. The Dragon Subduing Staff struck down with a golden light that illuminated the sky. It was as if it was a strike from a deity with the power of ascension.    

    

The sky trembled as if it was going to be shattered because of this attack. The Dragon Subduing Staff seemed to contain the blood of a true phoenix that could kill all the immortals in the sky.    

    

Nan Fengjian's heart was overwhelmed with shock. His sword intent surged as he slashed out a world-shocking sword light that shook the heavens. He wanted to fight against this true phoenix.    

    

However, Nan Fengjian was still in a critical condition. He had just escaped from the danger of losing his cultivation. He didn't have enough time to recover, and his strength was still very weak.    

    

He was slightly regretful. If he left first and waited until he recovered to his peak, then he would have to fight again. He wouldn't be afraid even if Empress Dowager Zhao's energy reached the Immortal level.    

    

However, he had still underestimated the trump card of the State of Zhao. He didn't expect that King Zhao hadn't broken through to the Elemental Martial Stage yet, but Empress Dowager Zhao had actually broken through to this realm. Furthermore, she was holding two divine weapons in her hands, and they were unstoppable. She was extremely powerful.    

    

The sky was rolling, and thousands of techniques were flowing through it. Empress Dowager Zhao slashed out a peerless light that split open the earth. The images of phoenixes turned this world into a sea of fire, shaking the entire Mortal World.    

    

"Puff!" Nan Fengjian's right arm was broken, revealing his white bones, which made him look terrifying. He was a Wu Zong, but he had been forced to such an extent.    

    

"My family has experienced countless storms and waves in my life. With just you alone... You dare to fight against Aijia?" Empress Dowager Zhao sneered. She had assisted two generations of kings, and she had even temporarily replaced the state affairs when the previous king passed away. Her power shook the world. Although these Wu Zongs were powerful, in terms of planning, but she was far inferior to Empress Dowager Zhao.    

    

However, Empress Dowager Zhao's plan included all the ancestors of the royal family. However, no one dared to say anything. Even King Zhao had to admit that if it were not for this, he would not be able to deal with the current situation.    

    

Empress Dowager Zhao attacked forcefully. The Dragon Subduing Staff killed in all directions. It was like a female God of War that possessed incomparable divine might.    

    

Finally, Nan Fengjian was defeated. He was extremely weak. In fact, he couldn't even use the Martial Fate Phase. His attack couldn't hurt Empress Dowager Zhao at all. Empress Dowager Zhao's Phoenix Feather Cloak blocked all the damage, making her attack and defense incomparably powerful.    

    

"I'll send you on your way!" Empress Dowager Zhao angrily shouted. The Dragon Subduing Staff swept up the wind and clouds as it attacked.    

    

"Hehe, even if I die, you can forget about living!" Nan Fengjian sneered. Facing the Dragon Subduing Staff's attack, he did not retreat. Instead, he advanced. He wanted to face this staff head on. At the same time, a sharp sword shot out from his sleeve. It was an extremely powerful hidden weapon that penetrated through the space. Empress Dowager Zhao's Dragon-slam Staff had destroyed Nan Fengjian's body and soul, and Empress Dowager Zhao was unable to dodge the sharp sword. She was stabbed.    

    

Nan Fengjian turned into a pile of dirt and Empress Dowager Zhao also retreated and spat out a mouthful of black blood. She circulated her spirit energy but was unable to heal her wound. She only released wisps of black Qi.    

    

"This is a sword that specializes in killing Wu Zongs." Empress Dowager Zhao's face turned green and her eyes indicated for King Zhao to stay. As for the other family leaders, they all retreated, and the army that was surrounding them had already retreated. These families needed to redeploy their forces in Royal City.    

    

This was a catastrophe that had overturned the structure of the entire kingdom. Not only the forces on the surface of State of Zhao, but also some of the underworld forces. They had also been purged, and the strength of these families had been greatly reduced. They needed a long period of time to recover.    

    

"Mother." King Zhao stepped forward, wanting to take Empress Dowager Zhao's pulse and treat her. However, Empress Dowager Zhao smiled bitterly. "It's useless. There is poison on this sword. With my skills, I can only force the poison out, but I can't really heal it. Unless there is a heaven-defying Pharmacist, but a person of that level... They won't heal us. "    

    

King Zhao remained silent.    

    

He knew very well what Empress Dowager Zhao meant. They controlled a kingdom. It seemed to be very powerful, but in front of a true expert, it seemed too weak.    

    

"So... Are you going to reach that step?" King Zhao sighed and asked.    

    

"The resources in State of Zhao have been used up. So, next... I will be the one to take charge of the resources. Remember, my three maids... All of them are Astral Martial Stage Level Nine experts. They will help you clean up some people." Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes flashed with a trace of fierce killing intent. The royal family lacked the foundation. They could no longer intimidate the aristocratic families. Then, they needed to clean up a bit.    

    

"May I ask which people you want to clean up, Empress Dowager? We can do it on your behalf!" In an instant, several figures broke through the door and entered, causing a cold glint to flash across Empress Dowager Zhao's eyes. " It seems like I am really going to die."    

    

"Empress Dowager, you're old. You should have sealed yourself a long time ago." The patriarch of Lyi family said with a smile. They had already figured out what Empress Dowager Zhao was thinking. She had used the heaven-defying Profound Weapon to conceal her Qi and didn't notice it.    

    

"Impudent!" King Zhao scolded, "Why are you talking to the Empress Dowager?!"    

    

"Great King, the State of Zhao has fallen to its current state because of you and your mother. It's time for the world to change." Another patriarch said.    

    

Although the other family heads didn't say anything, they didn't stand on the side of the royal family either. This was an opportunity for them to turn the tables and change the future structure of the State of Zhao.    

    

"Do you really think you can defy the heavens?" Empress Dowager Zhao sneered.    

    

"Old witch, what other chances do you have now?" He sneered at the patriarch. He did not believe that Empress Dowager Zhao would have any more tricks up her sleeve. The royal family was already at the end of their ropes.    

    

"The Empress Dowager's divine sense is powerful and can see through my existence. You fools. Do you really think that the Empress Dowager doesn't know that you are eavesdropping?" A hearty laugh sounded out, causing the faces of the nine clan heads to tremble. "Who is it!?"    

    

"How long has it been since we last saw each other? What, have you all forgotten about me?"
