79: Chapter 79 When you're riding high, I'll give you a taste of your own medicine.

With Xia Jin's speed, he quickly toured Tianyu City. Following the various intelligence on the Great Qian royal family and nobility provided by Liu Tongtian, he soon selected his escape route.

"Next is to enter Duke Zhen Mansion and wait for the arrival of Emperor Lu Hao, the Emperor of Great Qian!" Xia Jin arrived at the teahouse opposite Duke Zhen Mansion. While drinking tea and carefully observing the crowd entering and exiting, he suddenly smiled.

Because he had already seen a eunuch quietly enter Duke Zhen Mansion. Even though the other party had changed into plain clothes, it still could not escape his eyes.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, Duke Zhen Zhao Wuji left his residence in a rage, his face dark, accompanied by several servants.

"It seems Liu Tongtian's intelligence was correct. Tonight, it is highly likely that Emperor Lu Hao will visit Duke Zhen Mansion!" Xia Jin slowly stood up and set down an ingot of silver.

The waiter nearby just reached out to take it, only to find that Xia Jin's figure had already disappeared.

"Ghost… I've encountered a ghost!" He glanced at the still bustling customers around him, grabbed the silver ingot, and ran downstairs in a panic.

After leaving the teahouse, Xia Jin soon used Liu Tongtian's information and spent some money to bribe a manager surnamed Liu who was in charge of chores at Duke Zhen Mansion. He disguised himself as a newly arrived guard and entered Duke Zhen Mansion.

Sure enough, just past midnight, Xia Jin faintly heard the sound of subtle footsteps coming from the direction of the back door of Duke Zhen Mansion.

"He's here!" A sharp glint flashed in Xia Jin's eyes. His figure instantly arrived at a corner in the backyard, secretly observing the front.

At this moment, the entire backyard was already empty, leaving only two women dressed in gorgeous palace attire with high-piled buns waiting quietly on the side. These two were the two equal wives of Duke Zhen Zhao Wuji.

Although they had dressed meticulously and looked charming and moving, a hint of despair could be faintly seen between their brows.

"Sister!!" The woman in the pink palace dress next to her held the other's hand somewhat nervously.

"Bear with it. Treat today as if you were ruined by a pig! Otherwise, once Emperor Lu Hao is enraged, let alone us, even the entire Duke Zhen Mansion and our maiden families will be executed to the ninth degree!" Beside her, the other woman, who had a tear mole under the corner of her eye, bit her lip and finally sighed helplessly.

Suddenly, the side door of the backyard, which was usually kept closed, was quietly pushed open. Immediately after, a small yellow sedan chair was carried into the small courtyard by several sedan carriers.

As the sedan curtain was lifted, an old man dressed in casual clothes slowly walked out from inside. This person was none other than Emperor Lu Hao of Great Qian.

His gaze fell on the two women in front, and a playful smile appeared on his face.

After seeing Emperor Lu Hao, the two wives of Duke Zhen exchanged a glance and hurriedly stepped forward to bow, "Welcome, Your Majesty!"

"Eh!" Emperor Lu Hao stepped forward, beaming with smiles, and personally helped the two up, "Two madams, no need for formalities. It has been many days, and your figures seem to have become a bit more plump. It truly makes Me… miss you."

As he spoke, his arms naturally wrapped around their slender waists, and then he leaned close to their small faces and took a deep breath.

"Hmm! Not bad! You smell so fragrant!" Emperor Lu Hao was in a great mood, "Where is your newly arrived sister? I have long wanted to see her!"

"In reply to Your Majesty, Sister Jia has long been waiting for Your Majesty in the room! Your Majesty, please follow us!"

As their figures disappeared into the room ahead, a hint of coldness was revealed in Xia Jin's eyes at the corner of the wall.

The fish has finally taken the bait.

He did not continue to approach, but instead restrained his aura, using his Divine Sense to constantly observe the movement inside. However, at some unknown point, two purple-bronze metal fragments had appeared in his hand.

Inside the room, initially there were only faint sounds of teasing and the clinking of cups, which gradually mixed with some ambiguous gasps and the sound of clothing slipping off.

Finally, at the moment when a shrill cry of pleasure and a man's low roar sounded one after another.

Xia Jin's tightly closed eyes suddenly opened, a cold light flashed in the depths of his eyes, and killing intent surged!

After waiting so long, this is the moment!

His wrist shook violently, and the two purple-bronze fragments in his palm were wrapped in dazzling lightning, like two clusters of condensed thunder!

"Go!"

With a low shout, the fragments turned into two streaks of purple light and shot into the room!

Almost at the same instant, Xia Jin's figure had also disappeared!

At this moment, inside the room, the brocade quilt was in disarray, and the three women were already unconscious. Emperor Lu Hao was half-kneeling on the edge of the bed, one hand clutching his abdomen tightly, a flash of horror in his eyes.

He never expected that in this Duke Zhen Mansion, someone would actually dare to launch a sneak attack at his most relaxed and pleasurable moment!

"Who is it?! Such audacity, daring to injure Me!" In his fury, Emperor Lu Hao's aura of the ninth level of the Spirit Wandering Realm instantly shattered all the remaining furniture, doors, and windows in the room!

However, just as he sensed an extremely powerful aura rushing in and was preparing to look up.

He discovered that the other party was less than a foot away from him!

Xia Jin's speed was too fast! Under the augmentation of the Shenxiao Lightning Technique, he simply did not give Emperor Lu Hao much time to react.

He grabbed Emperor Lu Hao's shoulder, a trace of mockery appearing on his face!

"Emperor of Great Qian, since you have just finished your hard work, let this Prince let you rest first!" Xia Jin pointed his other hand toward the sky.

"Boom—!"

The roof broke open with a loud sound, and a purple pillar of lightning as thick as a bucket seemed to descend from the Nine Heavens, striking Emperor Lu Hao fiercely!

This was exactly the terrifying aspect of Xia Jin's Shenxiao Lightning Technique.

Unparalleled power combined with terrifying speed, making it impossible to defend against.

"Ah!! Bastard, who exactly are you?" Emperor Lu Hao let out a shrill scream. Even though his cultivation at the ninth level of the Spirit Wandering Realm was extremely deep, as long as he was still in the Spirit Wandering Realm, he could not withstand the head-on strike of Xia Jin's Shenxiao Lightning Technique.

In the instant of contact, his body already showed signs of being charred black.

"You want to kill Me, you must die too!" His eyes were bloodshot. Under the lightning, he condensed all his True Qi and slammed his palms heavily toward Xia Jin's chest!

"Die? This Prince will only die after you!?" Xia Jin sneered, neither dodging nor avoiding. His skin was instantly covered with a layer of pale gold—the Vajra Indestructible Body was already operating to its limit!

"Bang!"

The palms printed solidly on his chest. Xia Jin's figure shook, and a wisp of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

Emperor Lu Hao's full-force strike, even with the Vajra Indestructible Body offsetting most of it, still caused his internal organs to be shaken.

But, it was enough!

Xia Jin, having taken this blow head-on, had an even fiercer look in his eyes, and the lightning in his hands was suddenly driven to its peak!

Seeing Emperor Lu Hao, under the continuous bombardment of the lightning pillar, his protective True Qi completely collapsed, arcs of electricity darted all over his body, he let out a muffled groan, rolled his eyes, and finally fainted.

Xia Jin did not hesitate, forcing down his injuries, grabbed the limp Emperor Lu Hao, and his figure turned into lightning again, soaring into the sky, disappearing from Duke Zhen Mansion in a few flashes.

And the Duke Zhen Mansion behind him had already turned into ruins.

Except for the three unconscious women he had specifically avoided, all other personnel were reduced to ashes.
