Chapter 88: Xiang Yu's promotion to demigod, the Empress's secret
Xiang Yu was excited and Ma Baoguo was shocked.

Ren Woxing, Li Yuanba, Zhao Yun and other Emperor Wu were extremely envious.

"System, Demigod Promotion Card, use it on Xiang Yu!"

Su Jiutian no longer hesitated and gave the order in his mind.

"Ding! Demigod Promotion Card, successfully used on Xiang Yu!"

The system prompt sounded in Su Jiutian's mind, and Xiang Yu only felt a vast energy like the ocean appearing out of thin air in his body.

While moving through the limbs and bones, it also quickly merges with one's own strength.

"boom!"

The next moment, there was a loud roar, and Xiang Yu's realm successfully entered the semi-god realm. In the blink of an eye, he reached the great perfection of the semi-god realm.

"Thank you, my lord. I will die for you!"

Xiang Yu knelt on one knee and spoke in a loud voice.

Su Jiutian helped him up, glanced at the generals, and said, "Pass my order. In two days, the army will march to Cihang Sword Sect!"

"Yes!"

A group of generals clasped their fists and spoke in a loud voice.

……

Beijing.

"His Majesty!"

Zhu Jin knelt before the empress.

"But the rebels have been defeated?"

The empress spoke softly, and as she spoke, she picked a grape and put it in her mouth.

"Your Majesty, this is a serious matter. I dare not check it privately."

Zhu Jin said as he took out the message talisman.

He has learned his lesson.

Although this time, the ancestral temple dispatched a total of twenty-one Martial Emperors and forty Half-Emperors.

Logically speaking, he could crush the rebels, but due to past experiences, Zhu Jin dared not check the information in the communication talisman.

The empress snorted lightly, but did not expose him. She motioned Shangguan Ling'er to bring the message talisman.

The empress took the message talisman and crushed it.

The next moment, the smile on her face froze.

His expression turned livid.

Zhu Jin noticed the empress's expression and was shocked at first, then filled with ecstasy.

bad news.

Bad news again.

And judging from the look on Your Majesty’s face, perhaps Han Rong and the other twenty-one Martial Emperors and forty Half-Emperors had all been beheaded by the rebels.

Fortunately, I was cautious and learned from my previous lessons. I did not check the content of the message talisman. Otherwise, if I had said such huge bad news, I would have ended up like Gao Ming.

At this moment, the empress's cold voice sounded in his ears.

"You seem very happy, you little dog."

"what!"

"No, no, no!"

Zhu Jin was shocked and kowtowed continuously.

"The Imperial Guards have been unable to investigate the true strength of the rebels time and time again. I thought they were hiding well. Now it seems that there must be spies of the rebels around me."

The empress said coldly: "And you are the spy of the rebels."

I do not have.

I'm not.

Don't talk nonsense.

Zhu Jin felt hopeless and could only kowtow continuously.

"Your Majesty, I am loyal to you and I am definitely not a spy for the rebels."

"Your Majesty is clear!"

"Someone, drag him away and chop him into pieces!"

The empress spoke coldly.

Soon, the imperial guards came and dragged the frightened Zhu Jin away. Although Zhu Jin kept shouting that he was wronged, the empress ignored him.

A eunuch, a royal servant.

Shangguan Ling'er, who was standing aside, had a blank expression on her face, her eyes looking at her nose, and her nose looking at her heart.

After a while, when the empress's breathing became stable, she slowly said, "Your Majesty, what happened to make you so furious?"

"Ling'er, do you think that the Great Zhou Dynasty, which has ruled Jiuzhou for three thousand years, has come to an end?" The empress spoke slowly, her voice full of fatigue and weakness.

"Why did your Majesty say this?"

Shangguan Linger was shocked and said hurriedly: "The Great Zhou Dynasty has a profound foundation. There are a large number of Semi-Emperors, Martial Emperors, Semi-Gods, and Martial Gods in the ancestral temple. No one can shake the foundation of the Great Zhou Dynasty, let alone destroy it."

"Then why is it that Su Jiutian, a bastard who killed his brother and father and was disloyal and unfilial, was able to defeat the imperial court's royal teachers time and time again, and kill more than 20 Martial Emperors in the ancestral temple twice?"

The empress said in a deep voice.

"this……!"

Shangguan Ling'er didn't know how to answer.

"Forget it, you go down. I hope the demigods and the God of War in the ancestral temple can help. Otherwise, I am afraid I will really become the king of a fallen country."

The empress waved her hand and Shangguan Ling'er bowed and left.

Soon, the empress appeared in the ancestral temple.

Han Rong is dead, and the one who receives him this time is a demigod named Dong Yuan.

"Senior Dong Yuan, this is what happened." The empress said in a deep voice: "Senior Han Rong and others were all killed by the rebels."

"Your Majesty, the ancestral temple can only send out Martial Emperors and Half Emperors now." Dong Yuan said.

"But even if we send out forty or fifty Martial Emperors, I'm afraid it will be of no use."

The Empress said: "If no demigod or martial god intervenes, the rebels will soon arrive in the capital."

"Your Majesty, don't worry. The existence of the ancestral temple is no secret. The rebels will never dare to come to the capital rashly." Dong Yuan said: "Of course, if he dares to come, the demigods and gods of war in the ancestral temple will take action."

"Senior Dongyuan, you are also unable to take action?" The empress frowned.

“Your Majesty, the demigod in the ancestral temple, the God of War, cannot leave the capital for the time being.” Dong Yuan said.

"Of course, it will only take ten days or half a month to free up my hands. By then, I'm sure he will die anyway." Dong Yuan said.

"This is the only way." The empress nodded, said a few more words, then stood up and left.

"As long as the Cave Heaven World returns, the Giant Barbarians and Su Jiutian will all be nothing but chickens and dogs."

After seeing the empress off, Dong Yuan muttered to himself.

After leaving the ancestral temple, the empress entered the secret room.

At this moment, there was no trace of worry on her face, only coldness.

"You are trying to return to the Cave World, ignoring the fact that the rebels are about to march to the capital. Little do you know that once the Cave World returns, you will all become slaves and ants."

The empress said in a deep and cold voice: "I am the ruler of the Nine Provinces, and I will never tolerate this happening!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she mobilized the power in her body and began to practice.

Faintly, there seemed to be the aura of a demigod or even a martial god emanating from her body.

But her realm is clearly just that of a Martial Saint.

……

Two days later, Su Jiutian led a large army towards the Cihang Sword Sect.

Cihang Sword Sect naturally received the news first.

The main hall of the Cihang Sword Sect.

Shi Qingxuan slammed the table and said angrily: "What a bastard who killed his brother and father. He killed my disciple and now he dares to lead a large army to Cihang Sword Sect. He is simply courting death!"

"Master, that rebel thinks that he can ignore the Cihang Sword Sect by destroying the Wen Sect. Let's make sure he never returns."

The Grand Elder of the Cihang Sword Sect spoke angrily.

"That's right, Master, the rebels clearly don't take the Cihang Sword Sect seriously."

"Master, give the order!"

More and more elders and deacons spoke up.

Among the crowd, Duolong, who was at the Martial Saint level, also spoke up.

At the same time, he secretly wondered how he could help his master.

Shi Qingxuan listened to what everyone said and said in a deep voice: "Pass on this sect master's order to have all the disciples, deacons, and elders who are traveling outside return. This time, this sect master will make sure that the rebels will never return!"
