Chapter 5523: Putting down civil strife

"Sure enough, this inner armor may have some connection with the Dark Emperor."

Zhang Yifeng looked at the inner armor that was absorbing the energy of the black heart, and a heavy look flashed in his eyes.

The inner armor comes from the journey that Zhang Yifeng took to obtain the Void Immortal Gold for the Wushuang Scholar.

By chance, the inner armor automatically recognized Zhang Yifeng as its master and followed him.

Zhang Yifeng originally thought that this thing was also a mechanical product, but now it seems that the energy needed for this thing to evolve comes entirely from the dark space.

The crystal core of the tentacle monster absorbed in the Snow Country came from some kind of experimental product sent by the Tianyu Empire.

And this black heart has been confirmed to be from Taiqing's hand.

Looking at the inner armor that was concentrating on absorbing the heart's energy, Zhang Yifeng couldn't help feeling a little worried.

This pitch-black heart was not complete. After a while, the inner armor absorbed all the energy inside.

Without the support of energy, the heart fell to the ground and turned into black sand.

After absorbing the energy, the inner armor regained its composure and the extended silk thread obediently retracted into the collar.

His eyes moved slightly, but Zhang Yifeng still chose to fly up and return to the imperial palace.

Inside the hall, the Fire King had already suppressed all unnecessary expressions on his face and was standing by the entrance to the underground secret room waiting.

Looking at Zhang Yifeng flying out with the emperor's head in his hand, a meaningful light flashed in his eyes.

"Senior Fire King, I saw a strange thing down there..."

Seeing that the Fire King's complexion had returned to normal, Zhang Yifeng immediately planned to tell him what he had discovered in the secret room.

"But did you see a stone statue? Well, this thing is the certificate to go to the dark space."

The Fire King waved his hand and took the lead in telling Zhang Yifeng about the existence of the stone statue.

Zhang Yifeng was slightly stunned, but still nodded in agreement.

At the same time, he knew clearly that once the affairs of the Tianyu Empire were concluded, he would probably learn some more important information from the Fire King.

For example, what is the relationship between Taiqing and the Dark Emperor and the Fire King?

"Now that the main culprit has been eliminated, the internal strife in the Tianyu Empire should be mediated."

Zhang Yifeng said in a deep voice, and did not take the opportunity to ask about matters related to the Fire King.

He still remembered what the Fire King said, that once they officially set out on the journey to the dark space, he would tell the truth about everything.

Holding the emperor's head in his hand, Zhang Yifeng flew up and rushed out of the imperial palace.

Outside the imperial palace, Lu Shang was fighting alone against many royal guards.

These royal guards were indeed not easy to deal with. Only dozens of them were able to delay Lu Shang, who had activated his bloodline.

Of course, Gu Mie was probably the only one who really gave his all.

Zhang Yifeng looked at Gu Mie, whose body was covered with scars and whose blood was oozing from the corners of his mouth, and thought secretly.

"Hahaha, come on!"

With the bonus of domineering body, Lu Shang became more and more courageous as the battle went on, and his domineering aura dominated the whole arena.

Seeing that Gu Mie was unable to step forward to fight due to the severe strain on his body, he immediately turned his gaze to the royal guards around him who only dared to launch sneak attacks from a distance.

However, the royal guards, who had witnessed Lu Shang's terrifying fighting power, were no longer as determined as before.

Faced with Lu Shang's provocative words, they were frightened and took a step back.

"That's enough, Lu Shang."

"The head of the Emperor of the Tianyu Empire is here, and this meaningless battle should end!"

Zhang Yifeng flashed in front of Lu Shang and raised the emperor's head in his hand.

"Wha, what?!"

"His Majesty the Emperor is dead!"

The royal guards looked at the head held high in Zhang Yifeng's hand in disbelief, and the last line of defense in their hearts was finally broken.

After being stunned for a long time, the first royal guard who gave up resistance appeared.

He looked up at the sky in a trance, but threw the weapon in his hand directly to the ground.

With a leader, more and more royal guards soon chose to surrender.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Mie was the only one left in the field, who was having difficulty moving, still staring at Zhang Yifeng and Lu Shang.

"I want revenge!"

Gu Mie's muscles swelled and he forced himself to take a step towards Zhang Yifeng and the other man.

In his current state, it seemed as if his bones and flesh were being torn and reassembled with every step he took.

Even so, Gu Mie still walked towards Zhang Yifeng and the others with determination.

"What a strong will for revenge."

Zhang Yifeng chuckled. He could see that Gu Mie was at the end of his strength and was relying entirely on willpower to move forward.

"That's enough. We are not your enemies. Have a good rest."

Zhang Yifeng raised his hand and waved it, and a stream of spiritual energy covered Gu Mie's brows.

Suddenly, Gu Mie's wide-open eyes gradually closed, and he fell into a deep sleep while standing there.

"Mr. Zhang, you succeeded!"

Lu Shang stared at Zhang Yifeng, the tone of his words was not questioning, but affirmation!

Ever since Lu Shang learned that Zhang Yifeng was determined to attack the empire and carry out the decapitation plan, he believed that he would succeed.

This is why Lu Shang is willing to sacrifice his own life and his father's life to accompany Zhang Yifeng on this seemingly hopeless journey.

In Lu Shang's mind, as long as the powerful Brother Zhang decides on something, it will definitely succeed.

"Well, thank you for delaying our time, Lu Shang."

"Next, this meaningless internal fight should come to an end."

Zhang Yifeng nodded slightly.

The next moment he flew up and flew straight above the entire palace.

Holding the emperor's head high, Zhang Yifeng shouted: "The emperor is dead, those who surrender will not be killed!"

Zhang Yifeng's loud shout reached the ears of everyone in the palace.

At the same time, everyone from the Snow Country Alliance and the imperial defenders who were trying to force their way into the palace all looked up at the sky.

Under the scorching sun, Zhang Yifeng was standing proudly in the air with the emperor's head in his hand.

"The Emperor...is dead!"

The defenders of the imperial city looked at the head in Zhang Yifeng's hand and were shocked and unable to let go for a long time.

Lu Ji, who was still fighting a second ago, looked at Zhang Yifeng's figure in the sky, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

"Mr. Zhang, you are indeed a man who can bring miracles."

Wan Renxue, who stayed behind on the warship, also raised his head slightly and looked at Zhang Yifeng, sighing in a low voice.

"The Emperor, the Emperor is really dead!"

Elder Ma's body trembled slightly as he shouted excitedly.

The guy who had oppressed the Snow Country for many years and treated the Snow Country as a toy is really dead!

"Now that the Emperor is dead, our battle is meaningless!"

"If you still remember my past kindness to Lu Ji, please give up resistance now."

"You all should know my character, Lu Ji. As long as you put down your weapons, I will forgive you for what happened."
