152: Meet His Majesty the Great Qin Dynasty

After Qin Tian stored the Puppet into his Small World, he quickly headed towards the Imperial Palace.

In less than half an hour, Qin Tian arrived at Xuanwu Gate.

The city wall of Xuanwu Gate was incredibly tall, reaching ten zhang high, and the three characters ‘Xuanwu Gate’ were written above it, with powerful and majestic strokes.

At the entrance, there were also dozens of soldiers in armor guarding it, and their cultivation had all reached the Huashen Realm.

“As expected of the Great Qin Imperial Palace, even the gatekeepers are in the Huashen Realm!” Qin Tian mused inwardly.

As soon as he arrived at Xuanwu Gate, he saw Ying Mengyao standing below Xuanwu Gate, anxiously looking around.

Ying Mengyao’s heart was overjoyed when she saw that Qin Tian had finally arrived. With light steps, she quickly came before him and pouted, “Qin Tian, what have you been doing all day? You didn’t reply to my messages. I thought you had backed out!”

“Hehe! I did do something, but Ninth Princess is not in mortal danger right now, so there’s no rush. Besides, Young Master is a man of his word, how could I back out?” Qin Tian said with a smile.

“She’s not your Ninth Sister, so of course you’re not in a hurry. I’m dying of anxiety! Let’s go, let’s go, quickly go see my Imperial Father, and then immediately treat my Ninth Sister!” Ying Mengyao said anxiously.

As her voice fell, she prepared to hug Qin Tian’s arm.

Her hand paused in mid-air before she pulled it back. With so many guards watching, if their relationship appeared too intimate, it might attract a lot of gossip.

Qin Tian also noticed Ying Mengyao’s action and smiled slightly, “Let’s go.”

Soon, Ying Mengyao led Qin Tian into Xuanwu Gate.

“Greetings, Princess! May the Princess live long!” A group of guards knelt and saluted.

“Greetings, Princess! May the Princess live long!”

“Rise!” Ying Mengyao raised her jade hand lightly and said indifferently.

“Thank you, Princess!”

Ying Mengyao nodded at Qin Tian and smiled, “Qin Tian, let’s hurry, Imperial Father is already waiting for you in Taiji Hall!”

Qin Tian nodded slightly and followed Ying Mengyao towards Taiji Hall.

Upon reaching the entrance of Taiji Hall, Qin Tian saw a magnificent palace that was resplendent, majestic, and grand.

“Not bad, not bad! It’s a bit like the imperial palace in ancient Blue Star TV dramas!” Qin Tian mused inwardly.

As soon as he stepped into the main hall, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a black Dragon robe and a jade crown.

He was eight feet tall, with a handsome face, sharp, knife-like eyes, thick eyebrows, a high nose, and bright, piercing eyes, exuding the dignity and dominance of a superior.

He sat on the Dragon Throne, looking down at the hall below, with an old eunuch beside him.

Qin Tian and Ying Mengyao walked to the center of the hall and slightly cupped their hands towards Ying Tianxia, “Greetings, Your Majesty!”

“Greetings, Imperial Father!” Ying Mengyao knelt and saluted.

Qin Tian did not bow or kneel, maintaining a humble yet unyielding demeanor. He would never kneel to anyone; a mere Imperial Dynasty Emperor, given a bit more time, he could easily crush him.

“Bold! Why do you not kneel before His Majesty?” The old eunuch shouted angrily.

Qin Tian’s gaze fell upon the old eunuch, his eyes chilling, then he looked at Ying Tianxia and slightly cupped his hands, “Your Majesty, I am a free and unfettered individual and have never had the habit of kneeling. I hope Your Majesty does not take offense.”

“Hahaha! Good, good, good! Young Hero Qin is truly a man of character, Emperor likes it very much!” Ying Tianxia laughed.

Ying Tianxia’s gaze turned to Wei Zhongxian, and he said coldly, “Eunuch Wei, why aren’t you apologizing to Young Hero Qin?”

Wei Zhongxian shivered, feeling Ying Tianxia’s cold gaze, and quickly came before Qin Tian, bowing, “This old servant was presumptuous just now. Please forgive me, Young Hero Qin.”

Qin Tian ignored Wei Zhongxian, looked at Ying Tianxia and smiled, “Thank you, Your Majesty. I dislike this old eunuch very much. May I ask if Your Majesty would hand him over for me to deal with?”

Ying Tianxia frowned upon hearing this. This Qin Tian really doesn’t put Emperor in his eyes, does he? However, thinking that only this person could cure Ninth Princess, he still smiled at Qin Tian, “Of course.”

“Your Majesty, no! This old servant has served Your Majesty for decades, if not for merit, then for hard work! Your Majesty, spare my life!” Wei Zhongxian pleaded in terror.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!” Qin Tian cupped his hands and smiled.

Immediately, he looked at Wei Zhongxian, his eyes chilling, and casually took out the Soul Chasing Needle, shooting it towards his Dantian.

“Pfft!”

“Ah!”

Wei Zhongxian let out a shrill, ear-splitting scream. His Dantian was directly pierced, blood spurted from his mouth, and he collapsed to the ground, his body still twitching uncontrollably.

“Drag him out!” Ying Tianxia commanded loudly.

Soon, two Golden Armor Guards walked in from outside the hall and dragged Wei Zhongxian, who was like a dead dog, away.

Seeing Wei Zhongxian being dragged away, Ying Tianxia looked at Qin Tian and smiled slightly, “Young Hero Qin, are you appeased now?”

Qin Tian smiled faintly, “Thank you, Your Majesty.”

“Very well, since Young Hero Qin is appeased, can we discuss the main business now?”

Qin Tian nodded upon hearing this.

“I heard that Qin Tian obtained the purifying heart snow lotus in the Xuantian Secret Realm and also knows the ancient Cultivation Technique, Soul Devouring Sky Swallowing Art. Is this true?” Ying Tianxia looked at Qin Tian with burning eyes and asked with a smile.

Qin Tian nodded and smiled, “It is true.”

Ying Tianxia was overjoyed to hear this. It seemed that Mengyao’s trip outside had indeed brought good fortune to the Great Qin Imperial Dynasty, as she had actually found a miraculous person who possessed the purifying heart snow lotus and also knew the Soul Devouring Sky Swallowing Art.

Ninth Princess was the most talented among his many children, a being with the potential to Breakthrough to the Combination Realm, and he had always placed great hopes on her.

“Young Hero Qin, may I ask if you could take out the purifying heart snow lotus for Emperor to see?”

Qin Tian smiled slightly, “Of course.”

As soon as his voice fell, with a thought from Qin Tian, a purifying heart snow lotus with twelve petals quietly floated in mid-air, appearing before Ying Tianxia’s eyes.

Upon seeing this purifying heart snow lotus, Ying Tianxia’s eyes lit up.

This purifying heart snow lotus was entirely snow-white and had already opened twelve petals, indicating that it was mature.

The purifying heart snow lotus floated in the air, emitting a rich, fragrant scent. Ying Tianxia, upon smelling this fragrance, felt as if his Soul had become even purer.

Seeing this purifying heart snow lotus, Ying Tianxia was now completely convinced that this person could definitely cure Ninth Sister.

“Hahaha! Good, good, good! I didn’t expect Young Hero Qin to have such an Opportunity! Emperor sent hundreds of people to the Xuantian Secret Realm, but they couldn’t find the purifying heart snow lotus. I didn’t expect Young Hero Qin to find it!” Ying Tianxia laughed loudly.

“Young Hero Qin, as long as you cure Ninth Princess, whatever your request, as long as Emperor can do it, I will definitely fulfill it.”

Qin Tian sneered inwardly upon hearing this, “What I want is precisely Ninth Princess. I’m afraid he will definitely go back on his word then. But this bud-like flower, Ninth Princess, I’ll pluck it myself. After I make her bloom, I’ll just pack up and leave. What can you do?”

Thinking of this, he looked at Ying Tianxia with a strange expression and smiled, “Your Majesty, you exaggerate. However, I have one request, and I ask that Your Majesty agree to it.”

“What is your request, Young Hero Qin? Just say it. As long as Emperor can do it, I will definitely fulfill it!” Ying Tianxia said grandly.

“Your Majesty, when I treat the Princess, I ask that Your Majesty and others please withdraw!” Qin Tian slightly cupped his hands.

Ying Tianxia frowned upon hearing this, looking at Qin Tian in confusion, “Why?”

Qin Tian sneered inwardly, “Reality is too cruel. I can’t very well do your daughter in front of you, can I? Don’t you understand this?”
