"The Great Qin Empire, huh, such a feeble kingdom dares call itself the Great Qin Empire..." Wang Xiaoqiang sneered, "Take a look behind you, your Qin Kingdom is filled with nothing but shrimp soldiers and crab generals..."

King Qin's forces were only half the size of Wang Xiaoqiang's, and the soldiers' average cultivation base was low, unable to even reach the True Immortal Realm Fifth Stage. Additionally, Wang Xiaoqiang's over five million soldiers formed a Ring Spirit Formation, lining up neatly, creating an enormous and overwhelming presence that completely suppressed the Qin soldiers' morale.

"Heh, in the face of true strength, numbers are just digits. If you dare, let's have a duel."

"A one-on-one fight? No problem, come if you dare," Wang Xiaoqiang sneered.

King Qin, at the Immortal Emperor Two-Dragon Realm, saw Wang Xiaoqiang was at the Nine Elephant Realm of the Immortal King and thought he could handle Wang Xiaoqiang alone. However, he was unaware that Wang Xiaoqiang had already stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm, and the True Dragon he condensed was not an ordinary True Dragon, but the True Dragon of the Flame.

A single True Dragon of the Flame can handle two True Dragons of the Flame.

But these were things King Qin couldn't see.

Seeing Wang Xiaoqiang so confident, King Qin felt a bit tense, unexpectedly turning to look at Chi Bianyue.

Chi Bianyue spoke in a voice only they could hear, "Your Majesty, rest assured, with me here, everything will be fine."

With Chi Bianyue's words, King Qin cast aside his worries and flew toward Wang Xiaoqiang. As he flew, he condensed two True Dragons, which rushed menacingly at Wang Xiaoqiang. Wang Xiaoqiang chuckled coldly, advancing instead of retreating, seemingly ignoring the two True Dragons and charging at King Qin.

Just as the two True Dragons reached Wang Xiaoqiang, he moved with willpower, releasing the Holy Path of Courage. The word "Courage" floated out, growing to the size of a city gate, blocking the two True Dragons. The dragons were blasted away by the electric arc on the word "Courage." Witnessing this, Chi Bianyue was shocked and shouted, "King Qin, beware."

King Qin was horrified and tried to retreat with a swift flash, but it was too late—Wang Xiaoqiang was only seven meters away, having unleashed the Thunderclap Palm. With two snaps, electric arc burst from his palm, stretching ten meters long, striking King Qin directly. King Qin screamed in agony as his chest was charred black. Chi Bianyue flashed rapidly, rushing to aid, but Wang Xiaoqiang struck with his left hand, sending out a massive lightning bolt at Chi Bianyue, who condensed a mass of Immortal Qi to defend.

Barely managed to fend off the impact.

Wang Xiaoqiang took out a Blood Lotus, swallowed it, and brought forth the War God Hammer. Yet, instead of attacking Chi Bianyue, he charged at King Qin.

King Qin, wounded and unable to resist, could only condense a Dragon Qi orb above his head.

Boom!

Wang Xiaoqiang smashed King Qin with one strike, sending the Dragon Qi orb and King Qin himself crashing down.

Chi Bianyue caught up, withdrawing an Immortal Sword. The Immortal Qi propelled the sword straight for Wang Xiaoqiang.

With a thought, Wang Xiaoqiang absorbed 4 billion Spiritual Springs into his body, causing his Spiritual Power within to surge explosively, transforming from a Nine Elephant Realm Immortal King into an Immortal Emperor.

"What, Immortal Emperor?" Chi Bianyue was astonished once again, never expecting Wang Xiaoqiang had already reached the Immortal Emperor Stage.

Wang Xiaoqiang condensed a Dragon Qi orb in front of him.

Bang.

The Immortal Sword Qi powered by Immortal Qi struck the Dragon Qi orb, shattering it. However, after the Dragon Qi orb's resistance, the sword's power was greatly diminished, unable to harm Wang Xiaoqiang's Undying Golden Body.

Chi Bianyue was shocked again.

At this moment, King Qin charged again, condensing two True Dragons to strike Wang Xiaoqiang. An insect dying doesn't mean it can't twitch; after all, King Qin was at the Immortal Emperor Realm, and he wasn't dead yet.

Wang Xiaoqiang condensed a True Dragon of the Flame to counter.

Boom!!

Wang Xiaoqiang's True Dragon of the Flame collided with King Qin's two True Dragons with a mighty boom, crushing them instantly.

"What, True Dragon of the Flame?..." King Qin and Chi Bianyue were both stunned. Meanwhile, King Qin felt a deep jealousy arise; the True Dragon of the Flame was a legacy of the Empire.

"Kill him, we must eliminate him today." King Qin pointed at Wang Xiaoqiang and said to Chi Bianyue.

Chi Bianyue hesitated. For someone of high cultivation like Chi Bianyue, preserving legacies was important; the True Dragon of the Flame was already an Immortal Realm legacy. Wang Xiaoqiang had condensed a True Dragon of the Flame, proving that he was the Heir of the Flame, the Son of Heaven, meant to govern the Immortal Realm, meant to rule. Killing Wang Xiaoqiang would be going against fate, hence his hesitation.

During Chi Bianyue's hesitation, Wang Xiaoqiang wielded the War God Hammer and charged at King Qin.

Bang bang bang bang...

Wang Xiaoqiang swung the hammer thrice continuously.

Having revealed his cultivation, he had to eliminate witnesses; otherwise, if matters leaked, he'd become a target of public criticism—a fate worse than death.

Wang Xiaoqiang was formidable in body refinement, and after consuming the Blood Lotus, his Blood Qi surged with the War God Hammer in hand, rendering him undefeated in close-quarters combat. Three consecutive strikes; each slammed into King Qin.

King Qin was gravely injured, unable to defend, vomiting blood with each strike.

After three blows, his body was flattened, falling like a dead pig.

Chi Bianyue, whose resolve was already wavering, saw King Qin dead and was even less inclined to oppose Wang Xiaoqiang. Even killing Wang Xiaoqiang would not revert the situation; Qin Kingdom's change of rulers was inevitable.

Whoever becomes the ruler of Qin Kingdom, it's all the same.

Moreover, Wang Xiaoqiang, being the Heir of the Flame, inheriting Qin Kingdom was destiny and the trend of events. Most importantly, Wang Xiaoqiang was so strong that he wasn't confident in killing him. At this point, he sought to retreat.

"You, an Immortal Emperor, aiding an Immortal Emperor for power—don't you feel belittled?" Wang Xiaoqiang, seeing Chi Bianyue's wavering mind, tried to persuade him, knowing that killing Chi Bianyue was no easy feat, and if he activated the Myriad Circle Spirit Formation, many soldiers would be lost.

"Wang Xiaoqiang, I didn't expect you to be the Heir of the Flame," Chi Bianyue replied with a question instead, "If you take Qin Kingdom, how will you govern King Qin..."

"Like governing the Heavenly Wolf Empire, I will implement benevolent governance..." Wang Xiaoqiang said.

Chi Bianyue had heard of Wang Xiaoqiang's benevolent policies in the Heavenly Wolf Empire, so he didn't doubt Wang Xiaoqiang's words. Thus he said, "Alright, Wang Xiaoqiang, I will trust you this time. Today's matter, I won't interfere; I hope you treat the people of Qin Kingdom well."

"Rest assured..." Wang Xiaoqiang, seeing Chi Bianyue not intervene, felt relieved, "I also hope senior can keep this secret for me. If the True Dragon of the Flame matter spreads, I'll be targeted, a fate worse than death..."

"Rest assured, since I'm not your enemy, naturally I won't harm you, besides I don't want to see Qin Kingdom repeatedly change rulers either," Chi Bianyue asserted solemnly.
