Chapter 196 Let’s Say Goodbye

After saying that, the sixth soul ring of the warrior named General Zhang lit up, and he was directly divided into four figures, waving long swords and rushing towards Zhao Ling at lightning speed.

Since when Zhao Ling was conferred the title of priest, few ministers had ever seen him. At most, Emperor Xue Ye distributed his portraits to the ministers after the canonization.

This made many ministers feel that Zhao Ling looked very familiar, but they couldn't remember his specific identity at once.

General Zhang had just been exposed by Prince Xuexing as a vassal of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, and was frightened by the imperial aura of Emperor Xue Ye.

Now that he saw someone dared to trespass into the Qinzheng Hall where the ministers were meeting, he suddenly felt that the time had come for him to make a contribution. He was filled with anger and became bolder than ever. After releasing his martial soul, he used his soul skill, Phantom Sword Slash, and pounced towards Zhao Ling.

Zhao Ling curled his lips in disdain. A Soul Saint-level expert in his seventies wanted to cause trouble for him. What a fool.

Facing the first two figures rushing towards him, Zhao Ling was too lazy to even raise his hands, allowing the two figures to swing their long swords and chop at him. The two long swords passed through Zhao Ling's body like phantoms.

When the third figure came in front of Zhao Ling, Zhao Ling reached out and grabbed his neck, twisted him up from the ground, and smiled with a crooked mouth.

"Idiot, you are playing illusion in front of me, are you stupid? You are just a Soul Saint, it won't be much harder for me to crush you to death than to crush an ant."

After saying that, Zhao Ling simply tightened his fingers and strangled the man's neck, without giving him time to struggle or even to scream.

The general named Zhang's head tilted and he died in Zhao Ling's hands. The other three phantoms also disappeared instantly.

Seeing that Zhao Ling strangled a high-ranking Soul Saint-level expert to death with just one move, all the civil and military officials immediately shut their mouths.

Even the old guy who looked to be in his seventies and had been kneeling on the ground trying to persuade Emperor Xue Ye shrank his neck and moved to the corner, trying to make his presence less noticeable.

Oh my god, a Soul Sage-level expert was killed in a single move, and his death was so clean and neat. This young man, who looked to be in his twenties at most, was really scary.

Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing couldn't help but frown when they saw Zhao Ling killing someone in the Qinzheng Palace.

In their opinion, even though Zhao Ling was a royal servant, it was indeed excessive to kill the commander of the imperial guards in public in front of hundreds of civil and military officials.

However, considering that the incident itself was the fault of the commander-in-chief of the Royal Guards, he actually rushed forward to seek death.

Given Zhao Ling's dignity as a Titled Douluo, if he didn't kill him, he would probably be considered easy to bully.

Thinking of this, Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing's brows relaxed, and Zhao Ling had already seen all the reactions of the two brothers at this moment.

He simply threw the commander of the Royal Guards who he had crushed to death to the ground like garbage.

Then he took out a black card with 5 million gold soul coins from his storage space, left Emperor Xue Ye behind, and spoke in a calm tone.

"Your Majesty Xue Ye, I just came back and heard that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was almost murdered. I also heard that I sent someone to instigate this incident. I guess someone thought that it was not good for me to be a royal servant, so they set a trap for me."

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and he added nonchalantly.

"That's fine. Since the people of your Tiandou Empire don't welcome me to be the royal priest, there's no need for me to embarrass myself. I have no interest in being the royal priest anyway.

This is the 5 million annual salary you gave me. I won't pay you back a cent. As for your palace, I will move out within three days..."

Originally, Zhao Ling had taken 300,000 of the five million gold soul coins and gave them to A Yin, Poseidon and Liu Erlong as pocket money.

So he actually didn't have that much money to pay back Emperor Xue Ye, so he went to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect last night and asked them for 10 million gold soul coins.

Of course, he didn't ask for it for nothing. Don't forget, the system gave him the "Xuantian Gong" and directly raised his understanding of three of its items to the maximum level, including the method of using hidden weapons and a hundred solutions to hidden weapons.

So in front of the current Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's leader, Ning Fengzhi, and the two sect protectors, he drew out several hidden weapons, such as the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, the Flying Divine Claw, and innuendos.

With their vision, how could they not see the wonderfulness of these so-called hidden weapons? Moreover, with Zhao Ling's reputation as the Demon Suppression Douluo, how could the things he made be bad?

Therefore, with the generosity of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, they directly gave Zhao Ling 10 million gold soul coins as start-up capital, and asked him to help the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect to create those hidden weapons.

They have always believed that if the entire Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect obtained those exquisite hidden weapons, perhaps in the future their Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect would be able to surpass the Haotian Sect and become the leader of the Haotian Sect?

Thinking of this, the current Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's leader and Ning Fengzhi and his son were overjoyed.

This Demon-Suppressing Douluo is truly amazing. Everything he makes is so exquisite. I really want to see those hidden weapons in real life soon.

The camera pulls back to the Qinzheng Hall.

Emperor Xue Ye caught the black card and his brows immediately furrowed.

"Demon Suppression Priest, why do you have to be like this? I have never doubted you. I have always felt that you are extremely suitable to be the Royal Priest."

Prince Xuexing also nodded repeatedly, and hurriedly persuaded Zhao Ling: "Demon Suppression Priest, my brother and I have always trusted you very much, and never believed that you would murder Qinghe. After all, you are Qinghe's adoptive father..."

Before Prince Xuexing could finish his words, Zhao Ling reached out and interrupted him.

"Your Majesty and Your Highness, there is no need to say more. From the beginning, Zhao never intended to be a foster father. Everything was forced upon me by you two brothers.

Now that the subjects of your Tiandou Empire don't like me being a royal priest, and think that I am unworthy of being the Crown Prince's adoptive father, that's exactly what I want, and let's say goodbye now.

By the way, the Vast Sea Universe Cover is useful to me, and I have no way to repay you. I can promise that if Prince Xue Qinghe encounters danger in the future, I can help him once. After this, we don't want to owe you anything anymore…"

After Zhao Ling finished speaking in a calm tone, he walked out of the Qinzheng Hall without even turning his head, walking in a very casual manner.

This made the faces of the brothers Emperor Xue Ye and Prince Xue Xing darken instantly. They had spent so much money to invite Demon Suppression Douluo to become the royal worshiper.

Now, because of what those idiots did, Demon Suppression Douluo broke with them. He originally promised to save Qinghe three times, but now it has become just one time.

The most crucial thing is that Qinghe's identity as the adopted son of Demon Suppression Douluo is completely gone this time.
