"What's going on? Did that Zhang Ruochen offend all the cultivators in the world?"
The Crazy Alcoholic pressed a hand to Zhang Ruochen's back. He turned around and was frightened when he saw the swarm of cultivators.
There were too many attacking and it was difficult to count them. Some attacked obviously while others were hidden in the darkness.
The ones in broad daylight were just average. However, the hidden ones were all very strong. They were at least Saints.
Some might want the treasures, but others wanted to kill Zhang Ruochen, not wanting to let him leave the imperial city.
"The Empress didn't make a command, but I can guess her thoughts. She just wants to kill Zhang Ruochen and get rid of future threats. It's just that she can't do it herself."
The higher-ups of the imperial court and Ministry of War were guessing the Empress' thoughts. They wanted to cut off Zhang Ruochen's head to get on the Empress' good side.
