Chapter 563
Dragon God Empress, Descends!
“Suspected criminal?”
Jing Jiu frowned, his indifferent gaze returning to the six-person seats.
Apprehending Empire wanted criminals was one of the Heavenly Revelation Knights’ duties.
Therefore, if he encountered other wanted criminals during the pursuit of Feng Jiany, he wouldn’t mind dealing with them incidentally.
“Lord Jing Jiu, this person is in disguise.”
Under the Heavenly Revelation Knight’s indifferent gaze, Jin Jili pointed at the young man beside Jiang Qiue, “I feel like I’ve seen this person somewhere before. Something feels off.”
Jin Jili knew that his actions were risky. Not only did he conceal Feng Jiany’s whereabouts, but he also casually framed this young man.
If this young man’s identity was normal, he wouldn’t know how to explain himself to Jing Jiu.
However, back at Bei Qiu Abyss, the young man had always worn a fox mask and never revealed his true appearance.
Either he was disfigured, or this young man’s identity was something he couldn’t reveal.
And as a Divine Half-dragon with extremely strong recovery abilities, how could he be disfigured?
Therefore, Jin Jili judged that Jiang Qiue’s treasured male servant might be an Empire wanted criminal!
Jin Jili sneered inwardly, “Saintess, since you are unwilling to become my slave, don’t blame me for collecting some interest.”
Judging by the current situation, Jiang Qiue clearly didn’t want to reveal her identity either and coincidentally sat opposite Feng Jiany, making it highly likely they were working together.
So, if Jiang Qiue was smart, she could only choose to distance herself from the young man, watch him be arrested, and sacrifice a pawn to save the king!
Jing Jiu followed Jin Jili’s pointing finger. In the three-row window seat, the young man retracted his gaze from the window, and his black pupils calmly looked over.
The two made eye contact.
Cha Nai Xue and Jiang Qiue’s hearts tightened simultaneously.
Mu Qingtong also frowned secretly.
It’s over. Although Feng Jiany appeared normal, acting like a commoner hugging his daughter and shrinking in a corner, his expression filled with fear and awe as he stared at the suddenly appearing Heavenly Revelation Knight.
But in reality… in reality, he felt utterly chilled.
Feng Jiany didn’t understand. What was Xia Feng doing? Now that the opponent was here for a direct inspection, how could they escape?
Originally, he saw Xia Feng constantly observing the Heavenly Revelation Knight’s movements and thought this young man was preparing to use some mysterious method for long-distance teleportation after the knight had left.
But now, it seemed this young man had no intention of escaping at all!
He was still calmly leaning by the window, acting as if nothing was wrong.
“Drip-drip—”
Silver metal boots stepped on the ground. The sacred and majestic knight walked slowly down the aisle.
There were quite a few passengers in this carriage, with almost every row filled. They were all hunched over, their eyes filled with both awe and curiosity as they followed the Heavenly Revelation Knight’s steps.
After all, such a legendary existence was only seen in books.
Generally, Fourth-stage or Fifth-stage beings were already significant figures. Many people never encountered a Spirit Master above Fifth-stage in their lifetime.
Now, they were actually encountering a Heavenly Revelation Knight enforcing the law. Some brave passengers took out their phones to try and take pictures.
But strangely, their electronic device lenses showed only pitch black. No matter how they adjusted them, they couldn’t capture any images.
Next, all passengers’ vision, hearing, and smell were sealed. Their bodies were also fixed in their seats, unable to move, falling into darkness.
Xia Feng watched the approaching Heavenly Revelation Knight, still sitting calmly.
His identity indeed couldn’t withstand scrutiny. Once the Heavenly Revelation Knight personally confirmed he was a wanted criminal, he would directly choose to kill him, with no chance for any explanation.
The reason he wasn’t flustered was that he was waiting for a conjecture in his heart.
Jing Jiu looked down at Xia Feng from above, about to say something, when his indifferent, emotionless grey eyes suddenly narrowed into stars, and he abruptly raised his head! He seemed to feel a sense of dread and lowered his head, his right knee bending slightly as if to kneel.
But he reacted in time. The imperceptibly bent knee straightened, and his stiff expression returned to indifference.
Jing Jiu never expected that the first decree by the Empress after awakening would be issued to him!
He suppressed the excitement and tension in his heart and turned around without hesitation, executing the Empress’s order: [Cease inspection, retreat.]
Although he didn’t understand why the Empress suddenly stopped him from inspecting, and what terrifying identity that young man possessed to warrant the Empress’s immediate attention upon awakening,
He had many doubts in his heart.
But as the former Imperial Guard of the Empress, executing orders was their sole duty.
Therefore, no matter how shocked or confused Jing Jiu was, he wouldn’t delve deeper.
“Lord Jing Jiu, what are you doing?” Jin Jili was stunned and confused. Why did he just turn and leave?
Jing Jiu raised his eyes and said indifferently, “There are no criminals in this carriage.”
“?”
No criminals? What a joke! This carriage is full of criminals! Jin Jili couldn’t believe it. Just as he was about to say more, he noticed Jing Jiu’s calm, condescending gaze.
He was startled. Something was not right!
“Right, right!” Jin Jili quickly nodded, “No criminals…”
!
At the window seat, Xia Feng quietly watched Jing Jiu stand in front of him, then turn and leave silently after half a second, engaging in dialogue with Jin Jili.
He understood then that his guess was correct.
The Eighth Generation… had truly descended!
“Drip-drip-drip—”
Jin Jili followed Jing Jiu, walking quickly, his neck seeming very stiff.
Xia Feng, unhurriedly, took out the Ten Dragon Magic Cannon, a short-barreled black shotgun, and pointed it at Jin Jili’s back from a distance.
“!” Jin Jili’s expression changed drastically. He suddenly turned back, and two ice-blue spirit swords materialized in his effeminate eyes, spinning rapidly and shooting out.
But as soon as the two ice swords left his pupils, they spun 180 degrees,绕往身后 (went around to the back), and flew into the Heavenly Revelation Knight’s hand.
“Bang—!” The bullet hit the chest directly, creating a shallow blood hole. Jin Jili grunted and stumbled back half a step.
Jing Jiu crushed the ice swords in his hand, then his armored hand directly grabbed Jin Jili’s back of the head. As Jin Jili turned back in disbelief and horror,
He calmly declared, “Jin Jili, for attempting to attack an innocent civilian, you are sentenced to death.”
“?!?!”
“Bang—!” The second bullet pierced the shallow pit in his chest. Jin Jili was lifted by his hair by Jing Jiu, his ferocious face directly facing the muzzle of the young man’s shotgun in the distance, struggling and terrified, “Jing Jiu! Are you fucking insane—”
“Bang—!!!” His roaring words were cut short as a blood hole appeared between Jin Jili’s eyebrows, the searing pain reaching his soul through his nerves.
He did not die but let out another mournful wail.
Jing Jiu easily destroyed his spirit pressure defense, allowing the low-level damage of the uncharged shotgun to directly attack his Spirit Base and Spirit Substance, rendering him unable to resist.
He could only passively endure such desperate torment.
The carriage.
All the passengers had their five senses sealed long ago and were slumped in their seats.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!!” The continuous gunshots echoed in the carriage, like a rhythmically pulsating beautiful musical note.
The man held by the tall silver-armored knight was riddled with bullets for a full ten seconds, like a broken rag doll.
