Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 562 - 561: Deserted by All

"What?"

"Xiao Yi is back?"

"They, they are going to overthrow the new emperor..."

Sudden waves of shock and awe surged through the crowd.

Especially among the ministers, many clenched their fists, their faces lighting up with excitement.

In the hearts of the citizens of the Great Qian Dynasty, Xiao Yi's prestige nearly rivals that of Emperor Qian, and he is considered a national hero of the Great Qian Dynasty. With his own strength, he had crushed the God Devouring Ants army and defeated the grand army of the Sword Dynasty.

He breached Southern Ice City and penetrated deep into the territory of the Sword Dynasty.

A series of battle achievements.

So splendid!

And he created countless miracles!

But...

There had been no news of Xiao Yi before, and under Yang Kun's malicious slander, everyone thought that Xiao Yi had died in battle at the Sword Dynasty and could never return.

Until now.

Naturally, they were extremely excited upon hearing the news of Xiao Yi's return.

Yang Ling and others, who had been in utter despair, suddenly looked up, their eyes sparkling with hope as they laughed loudly, "Yang Kun, oh Yang Kun, Xiao Yi is back, let's see how much longer you can be proud!"

"Hahaha, Xiao Yi indeed did not let us down!"

"Dean, you're finally back!"

"Master is back, brothers, Master is back, we are saved..."

Ye Heng and other strong members of the Xiaoshanhe Institute had bloodshot eyes, overwhelmed by emotion.

Xiao Yi was indeed the cornerstone of the Xiaoshanhe Institute.

With him around!

The Xiaoshanhe Institute will absolutely not fall!

Yang Kun's face was incomparably grim, even showing a hint of fear. The shadow Xiao Yi had left him with at the ancestral ceremony on Imperial Dragon Mountain had already turned into a never-ending nightmare.

However...

The moment he thought of himself having ascended the throne, holding great power, with the support of several major sects.

At that moment.

Yang Kun forcibly stabilized himself, squinting his eyes at Xiao Yi who was bursting out of the void, his eyes shooting a cold light: "Xiao Yi? Hmph, now that I have ascended to the throne and hold the ultimate power, what can you do by coming back? Since those wastes from the Sword Dynasty couldn't kill you, then I will personally slay you!"

Whoosh!

Xiao Yi descended from the sky and with a loud bang, landed on Xuanwu Square.

The violent shockwave he caused upon landing flipped the Blood Shadow Guard and Blood Saber Guard warriors in front of him, sending them tumbling out, vomiting blood, their eyes filled with horror.

Just the shock of his landing had severely injured hundreds of people.

Such strength was truly astonishing.

"Xiao Yi..."

"Dean..."

"Master..."

"You're finally back..."

The populace, amidst despair, saw hope and called out with choked voices.

Xiao Yi frowned as he looked at the terrible state of Yang Ling, Qi, Ye Heng, Shadow Demon, and others. His gaze was icy cold, and Little Lin leaped out from his sleeve, landing on them. With a shake of its body, it shattered the shackling instruments binding them.

No sooner had Little Lin rescued Jin Feiyan than the girl began to retch violently.

Xiao Yi frowned and asked, "What's going on?"

Ye Heng supported Jin Feiyan and looked up with bloodshot eyes, glaring at Xiao Yi: "Master, all of this is Yang Kun's doing... he, he slaughtered three thousand brothers from our Xiaoshanhe Institute, crushed their skulls, and forcefully fed their flesh to us... Wah..."

As he spoke.

Ye Heng could not hold back either and began to vomit uncontrollably.

Xiao Yi's eyes instantly became incredibly sharp, as he looked at the carpet of flesh and blood laid out on Xuanwu Square, a cold evil Qi instantly spread over the entire square.

Crack, crack, crack!

On the ground, frost formed.

Xiao Yi's chilling gaze fell on Yang Kun, their eyes meeting, the cold murderous intent colliding in the void.

The invisible gazes sparked blinding flashes as they clashed.

Xiao Yi said, pausing between each word, "Yang Kun, you deserve to die!"

"How dare you!"

Before Yang Kun could speak, Li Ying sharply rebuked, saying coldly, "Who do you think you are? How dare you confront His Majesty, kneel down and confess your guilt to His Majesty..."

"When did it become your place to interrupt while I'm talking to your master, you hermaphrodite?"

Xiao Yi glared at him with icy eyes and, raising his hand, sent a tsunami-like fierce palm wind howling toward him.

Li Ying had no time to react.

He was slapped to the ground by the huge palm, and with a bang, was directly squashed into a meat patty.

Hiss!

Shocked gasps of breath were heard all around, "Fuck, what just happened?"

"That was Dharma Phase Realm Peak Manager Li, he, he, he was actually slapped to death by a single palm?"

"Is this the power of Xiao Yi?"

Amidst the cries of astonishment,

Yang Kun's eyes twitched slightly as he stared at Xiao Yi with added shock and envy, "This guy... has gotten stronger. But..." He smirked, his lips curling up in a cold laugh, "I have changed completely from before as well!"

With that thought,

Yang Kun looked at Xiao Yi with a sneer, saying indifferently, "I didn't expect you to come back alive from the Sword Dynasty. You really are like a cockroach!"

Xiao Yi glanced at him, "You must be very disappointed that I'm alive!"

"Indeed, somewhat disappointed—that neither the Huihai Sword Master nor the Sword Dynasty could keep you..." Yang Kun leaned forward slightly, sneering, "But what of it? The last laugh will still be mine. I have become the Emperor of Heaven and Earth, holding sway over the Great Qian Dynasty. Time, place, and people, all are on my side, and even with your return, it won't make any difference!"

"Make no difference? That's not necessarily the case!"

Xiao Yi said coldly, "The virtuous get help while the wicked get none. Someone like you who murders his father to usurp the throne and plots against his own brothers, an animal like that is certainly subject to heaven's punishment!"

"Heaven's punishment? Hahaha, I've only seen kind-hearted poor people starve to death, but never seen a heartless rich merchant go hungry... If that's heaven's punishment, then aren't all those starving poor people suffering from it?"

Yang Kun's continuous sneers went on, "Now that I am the Emperor of Heaven and Earth, with great power in my hands, what waves can you raise all by yourself?"

"All by myself? You are about to be disappointed..."

Xiao Yi cracked a small smile and lifted his right hand high, calling out with resonance, "Where is the Royal Guard Army?"

Rumbling thunder!

His high call spread in all directions, echoing over the imperial capital.

For a moment...

The imperial capital shook tremendously as the city guard soldiers opened the gates, and the dark tide of soldiers streamed in. They became torrents of steel flooding into the capital from all sides.

And at the same time...

Roars of anger spread throughout the capital: "Great General Liu Fuhai vows to follow Xiao to the bitter end in entering the imperial capital for the king's cause!"

Updat𝓮d from freewēbnoveℓ.com.

"Great General Zhao Zi Yi vows to follow Xiao to the bitter end in entering the imperial capital for the king's cause!"

"The Left General vows to follow Xiao to the bitter end in entering the imperial capital for the king's cause..."

"Vows to follow Xiao..."

"For the king!"

Hiss!

Yang Kun inhaled sharply as he watched the Royal Guard Army pour in from all directions, his face alternating between shades. Grinding his teeth as he gazed at the mighty figures appearing in Xuanwu Square, "Liu Fuhai? Zhao Zi Yi... you, you band of treacherous officials and rebels, you..."

Seven out of ten Great Generals had come?

Besides them...

There were also many city lords and high-ranking officials, and they had all taken a stand against him?

Pant!

Pant!

Yang Kun's chest heaved violently, his eyes turning blood red, unable to accept the scene before him.

He thought that once he ascended the throne, he would hold ultimate power.

But now...

All these subjects had utterly abandoned him.

Yang Kun glared at his ministers: "You..."

Before he could finish,

Two-thirds of those ministers had already abandoned him, moving to Xiao Yi's side.

Even more so...

Groups like the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, the Dongfang Family, and the Ximen Family had also forsaken him, directly aligning with Xiao Yi. The civilians around also began moving towards Xiao Yi's side.

At this moment, Yang Kun felt the world spinning, stars bursting in his eyes.

Today was supposed to be the joyous day he was crowned Emperor and became the lord of the Great Qian Dynasty!

But now...

He had become a pariah, deserted by all!

Watching Yang Kun, who was at a loss, Xiao Yi's mouth curled slightly upward, and he said coldly, "You've lost!"
