The scene had returned to calm, but Yan Liqiang still did not move. He was still lying quietly behind the rocks, paying attention to the situation in the valley below.
It wasn't that he didn't want to move, but just as he was about to go down, a warning suddenly arose in his heart, as if he felt that there was still danger below, so he restrained himself and stayed quietly.
Lin Qingtian's figure disappeared after he went over the hill in the east, and the speed of that golden light was hundreds of times faster than Lin Qingtian's figure. According to Lin Qingtian's speed, it would be impossible for him to catch up. Lin Qingtian was cunning and suspicious. Just now, Lin Qingtian seemed to be chasing the golden light, but he left too easily, so Yan Liqiang became more cautious.
Sure enough, Yan Liqiang just stayed quietly for less than five minutes. Without any warning, a black shadow flashed at the bottom of the valley, and Lin Qingtian suddenly appeared below. His eyes were gleaming as he glanced around the valley. After seeing that the emperor's body was still there and had not been moved at all, he slowly walked to the emperor's side, squatted down, and carefully searched the emperor's body for a while, even the soles of his shoes were not spared, but found nothing.
Lin Qingtian roared and stood up, looking at the emperor's corpse with a sneer on his face, "People like you have been a coward all your life, neither good at literature nor martial arts. I didn't expect that you could still remember that you were the king of the human race before you died, and you even played such a trick. You are cruel, but I can't get the Nine Dragon Seal, and no one else can get it. Whoever gets it, I will snatch it away. I can snatch the Nine Dragon Seal from you, let alone others!" After speaking, Lin Qingtian kicked the emperor's corpse directly, and kicked the emperor's corpse into the pool, splashing a large amount of water, and slowly sank. Then Lin Qingtian snorted coldly, moved his body, and continued to shoot towards the east, disappearing from Yan Liqiang's eyes in a few breaths.
It was not until this time that the alarm in Yan Liqiang's heart was completely lifted, knowing that Lin Qingtian had finally left this time. If he had rushed down rashly just now, he would have been intercepted by Lin Qingtian's surprise attack and would have died.
Two minutes later, Yan Liqiang walked out of the rocks, and after a few flashes, he came to the pool of water in the valley below. Without thinking, he dived into the pool. Half a minute later, Yan Liqiang emerged from the pool with the emperor's body in his hands. He then swam to the shore, brought the body ashore, and then after a few flashes, he completely disappeared in the valley.
Yan Liqiang carried the emperor's body through the rocks and valleys, climbed over a hillside, and came to the slope of a nearby hill. The hill was covered with lush trees, and the hillside faced the river in the distance. The scenery was pretty good. After putting down the emperor's body, Yan Liqiang took out his black scale sword, and used both his hands and the sword. It took him half an hour to dig a large pit on the ground.
Then Yan Liqiang jumped out of the pit, held the emperor's body and gently put it into the pit. He stood by the pit, sighed to the emperor, and said deeply, "No matter what, you are the king of a country, and we are also kings and subjects. This time, I will let you rest in peace and not expose your body to the wilderness. This is my repayment to you. Thank you for your appreciation and promotion. But I have also given you enough in return. From this moment on, we owe each other nothing. I have been wanting to tell you something these days. The vast land and mountains of the Han Empire, with its millions of people, cannot be ruled by a little scheming and political trickery. As the ruler of a country, if you do not establish a heart for the world, a life for the people, and a peace for the world, then what is the use of your power, your army, and your wealth? Good things are rewarded by heaven, and the surplus is taken away, and the deficiency is supplemented. When you decided to abandon the millions of people in the capital to die in the apocalypse and wanted to leave with the whole court, the final result was already doomed. You can't blame anyone for what happened today..."
Looking at the headless corpse in the pit, Yan Liqiang didn't expect that the king of a country would end up like this and die so miserably. If he hadn't encountered it, the corpse would have eventually turned into dry bones in the mud and become food for the fish and shrimp in the mountains. Yan Liqiang felt a little sad.
With a sigh, Yan Liqiang grabbed a handful of dirt and gently sprinkled it on the body in the pit. "From now on, dust will return to dust. The scenery here is beautiful. Your Majesty, please rest in peace!"
In just a short while, the soil in the pit was half covered, and the emperor's body was completely covered by the soil. Yan Liqiang was pushing the soil when he suddenly felt something strange above his head, as if something was falling from the sky at high speed. The speed was many times faster than the arrow he shot. He was horrified and thought it was a sneak attack by Lin Qingtian. Without thinking, his whole body exploded and retreated ten feet in an instant. He took the Black Scale Sword in his hand and protected his whole body.
When Yan Liqiang landed on the ground and looked around, he was so shocked that his jaw dropped. There was no Lin Qingtian anywhere. Above the emperor's pit, there was only a ball of dragon-shaped golden light emitting a soft glow, floating quietly and motionlessly three feet above the ground.
This... isn't this the same ball of golden light that flew out from the Emperor's head before? How... why is it coming back again
Even though Yan Liqiang had seen many strange things, at this moment, looking at the ball of golden light floating in front of him, his brain short-circuited. Everything before his eyes was really unbelievable. At this time, Lin Qingtian was probably already chasing him to who knows where. Even if he broke his head, he would not believe that this golden light would actually come back and seemed to be able to sense the location of the emperor's body.
Yan Liqiang swallowed hard, looked around to see if there was anything unusual, and then slowly walked towards the dragon-shaped golden light.
When he came in front of the golden light, Yan Liqiang found that the golden light was motionless. He stretched out his hand carefully and touched it lightly, but just when his hand just touched the golden light, the golden light trembled violently, and before Yan Liqiang could react, it flew towards Yan Liqiang's head. Yan Liqiang only felt a pain in the center of his eyebrows and a shock in his brain. The golden light had already penetrated from the center of Yan Liqiang's eyebrows into Yan Liqiang's sea of consciousness and disappeared in front of Yan Liqiang.
It feels like everything in front of me is like a dream!
Yan Liqiang stood there blankly for a moment. The golden light in front of him disappeared. He rubbed his brows again and found no wounds or bloodstains. However, when he looked inward at his sea of consciousness, he found that there was something extra in his sea of consciousness—it was a jade seal, surrounded by nine golden dragons, quietly staying in his sea of consciousness, emitting a circle of mysterious glow...
This... this is... the Nine Dragon Seal!
At the same time, just as Yan Liqiang was looking inward at the strange object, the nine golden dragons on the Nine Dragon Seal trembled at the same time, and the nine golden dragons opened their mouths wide, and like a pump, they began to slowly absorb the mysterious energy that Yan Liqiang had condensed in his sea of consciousness earlier...
