"Bang bang bang bang—!"
The dense sounds of impact, like rain pattering on banana leaves, rang out. Master Kuhe's golden palm print melted away like ice and snow the moment it touched the azure sword energy dragon. He was forced back by the violent torrent of sword energy, his monk's robes torn, and golden blood spilled from the corner of his mouth again. He was in grave danger!
"This, this is impossible! How could there be such domineering and unparalleled swordsmanship in this world?!" Ku He roared madly in his heart. He felt that all his life's learning seemed so pale and powerless in the face of Ye Tian's endless terrifying methods.
Just as he was about to be completely swallowed up by the rolling dragon of sword energy, a hint of mockery flashed in Ye Tian's eyes. With a thought, the rolling azure sword energy dragon suddenly subsided!
Ku He had just breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that Ye Tian was going to show mercy.
Unexpectedly, Ye Tian suddenly flicked his sleeves!
"Sing—!" "Sing—!"
Two more refined, faster, and more deadly cyan sword lights, like two venomous snakes with life, silently shot out from his sleeves! Ignoring the distance in space and the defense hastily set up by Ku He, they directly struck his left and right shoulder blades!
A celestial-grade sword technique – "Two Sleeves of Green Snakes"!
"Pfft!" "Pfft!"
Two soft sounds, and blood splattered!
Master Kuhe felt a numbness in his shoulders, followed by two excruciating pains! The protective true energy he had just gathered was as fragile as paper in the face of these two strange and agile green snake sword energies, and was easily pierced through! His collarbone had been completely locked by these two sword energies, and at this moment, he could no longer gather any more power!
"ah--!"
Master Kuhe let out a painful groan, his prayer beads scattered on the ground, and he could no longer support himself. His knees buckled, and with a thud, he collapsed to his knees! His cloudy old eyes were filled with disbelief, despair, and deep fear!
He lost! He lost so completely! He lost so decisively!
He hadn't even fully seen how Ye Tian made his move! That swordsmanship, that speed, that power—it completely exceeded his understanding of martial arts! That wasn't power that mortals could possess! That was... immortal art! A divine skill!
"Immortal, immortal magic, you, you used immortal magic," Ku He's voice was hoarse, with a hint of despair in its trembling tone. He looked at Ye Tian as if he were looking at a banished immortal who had descended from the heavens to the mortal world, or as if he were a demon god who had crawled out from the depths of hell.
At this moment, he was completely terrified by Ye Tian's strength, the terrifying fact that he was a "fourteen-year-old grandmaster", and his unpredictable immortal techniques! His lifelong beliefs and pride collapsed at this moment!
Having witnessed this earth-shattering showdown, especially seeing Master Kuhe, the last guardian of Northern Qi, utterly powerless against Ye Tian's endless and terrifying methods, and ultimately meeting such a tragic end, Zhan Doudou, Fan Xian, Shen Zhong, and the remaining Northern Qi guards were utterly terrified and their souls were scattered!
"Splash!" "Splash!" "Splash!"
The sound of people falling to the ground filled the air!
Zhan Doudou's delicate body trembled violently. Looking at the boy who looked down upon the kneeling Ku He like a god, the last glimmer of hope in her eyes was utterly shattered, replaced by boundless despair and a morbid, almost godlike worship of Ye Tian! Her legs went weak, and she lost control of her bladder again, collapsing onto the cold ground, muttering to herself, "It's over, Northern Qi is completely over. A god, he's a god..."
Fan Xian was already deathly pale, trembling like a leaf. He had witnessed the downfall of a Grandmaster, the end of a legend! The power Ye Tian displayed had completely exceeded his wildest imagination! At this moment, he had no other thoughts but fear! That familiar warm current filled him with shame and indignation once again, yet he was utterly helpless!
Si Lili and Haitang Duoduo, these two beauties of Northern Qi, had already lost their color and their delicate bodies... Si Lili looked at Ye Tian, her eyes filled with extreme fear and even more fanatical worship! She knew that choosing to submit to Ye Tian was the best decision she had ever made! As for Haitang Duoduo, amidst shock and despair, her twisted love for Ye Tian grew increasingly uncontrollable. She even felt that being defeated by such a god and demon, becoming his woman, might be a unique kind of "honor"?
As for Shen Zhong and the other surrendered officials of Northern Qi, they were already terrified and ran away in a panic.
They prostrated themselves on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly to Ye Tian, pleading "God, spare our lives!" for fear that Ye Tian might crush them like ants in a fit of rage.
In front of the Tranquil Heart Hall, apart from Ye Tian who remained calm and stood with his hands behind his back, everyone else was plunged into the deepest fear and despair.
"Your Highness, I have been defeated."
From this day forward, the Northern Qi humbly submits to Your Highness as their master. We only beg Your Highness to keep your promise, treat the countless innocent lives of the Northern Qi with kindness, and forgive, forgive His Majesty and us, for our lives.
His voice, like a candle flickering in the wind, was filled with desolation and sorrow. The grandmaster, the guardian of Northern Qi, at this moment, lowered his proud head and chose to surrender.
·······························································
Master Kuhe's words, filled with sorrow and helplessness, "I am willing to serve Your Highness as my master," were like a final edict, announcing the end of the Northern Qi Dynasty's centuries-long reign. Zhan Doudou's delicate body trembled violently, tears streaming down her face like broken pearls, yet she could only silently accept the fate of her country's demise with Kuhe's support.
Ye Tian stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze calmly sweeping over the Northern Qi rulers and ministers before him, whose expressions ranged from despair and fear to numbness, as well as the various expressions of his "own people" behind him. He took a deep breath, his voice clear and carrying an undeniable air of dominance, echoing throughout the ruins of the Tranquil Heart Hall:
"Master Kuhe, now that you have admitted defeat and surrendered, I will keep my promise and spare your lives. I will also treat the thousands of innocent people of Northern Qi kindly, so that they will be spared the suffering of war."
He paused, then his tone suddenly became incredibly authoritative, like a god-king from the heavens issuing a decree:
"But from this day forward, from this very moment, there is no more Northern Qi in this world! The Northern Qi Dynasty is dead!"
These few words, like the heaviest hammer, slammed into the hearts of every remnant of the Northern Qi. Zhan Doudou's body went limp, and she almost collapsed to the ground. If Ku He hadn't protected her heart with his true energy in time, she probably would have fainted on the spot.
Ye Tian ignored their grief and despair. He surveyed his surroundings, his gaze finally settling on the scorched earth of the Northern Qi palace, and the vast land beyond. His voice was filled with the ambition and aspiration to usher in a new era:
"And I, the King, will establish a brand new, great nation here, on this very ruin that once nurtured the Northern Qi civilization, a nation far surpassing any previous dynasty!"
He suddenly waved his hand, his voice ringing out like the sound of metal striking stone:
"The name of the state shall be—Great Qin!"
"Great Qin," Ye Tian murmured the name in his heart, a meaningful smile playing on his lips. His previous life's Earth, the first feudal dynasty to end centuries of warring states, unify the entire land of China for the first time, establish a centralized government, standardize writing and cart axles, and lay the foundation for the empires of the next two thousand years—that was—Great Qin!
In this life, by a twist of fate, he was also bestowed the title of "King of Qin" in the Qing Kingdom. Now, he intends to build another "Great Qin" on this alien continent, using it as the name of his nation. This not only reflects his ambition to unify the world and establish an everlasting dynasty, inherited from his previous life on Earth, but also echoes his identity in this life. Furthermore, it foreshadows his determination to sweep across the land, pacify the universe, and establish an unprecedentedly vast empire!
Alright! Let's call it Great Qin! A brand new Great Qin Dynasty that belongs to Ye Tian!
