741 Capturing Zhou Shu, Hero or Traitor (2)
“Ignorant!” Tang Qi snorted coldly. “My Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven protects the human race. My Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven has the right to interfere in anything that endangers the human race.
“Are you going to surrender, or do you want me to make a move?”
He stared at Zhou Shu, his eyes flickering with a cold light. “I advise you not to ask for trouble.”
An aura surged from Tang Qi’s body, and the pressure of a Grotto-Heaven expert spread in the air.
The powerful pressure was released without any scruples. Even the soldiers in the camp a few steps away were affected.
Meng Bai, Wang Mu, Xu Shi, and the other generals of the camp appeared and shouted, “Who is it?!”
But before they could finish speaking, everyone felt as if they had been severely injured. All of them spat out blood and took a few steps back.
Most of the soldiers in the camp collapsed to the ground, unable to even stand up.
“Stop!” Zhou Shu took a step forward and shouted. A towering aura rose from his body, resisting the aura of a Grotto-Heaven expert emanating from Tang Qi.
The invisible auras collided, stirring up whirlwinds in the air, sending sand and stones flying.
“If you’re not afraid of death, you can try,” Tang Qi said coldly. “Let me tell you in advance. I won’t hold back just because you’re weak. If you really die, it’s your own bad luck.”
Zhou Shu’s expression was cold. He wasn’t afraid of Tang Qi’s threat. Kill him? Even though Tang Qi was a Grotto-Heaven expert, he couldn’t do it.
Although Zhou Shu was only at the Earth Immortal realm, he wasn’t an ordinary Earth Immortal.
Not to mention that his body wasn’t weaker than ordinary Grotto-Heaven experts, just his divine ability Total Annihilation alone could increase his combat strength a hundred times and allow him to fight a Grotto-Heaven expert.
He might not be able to defeat them, but if Zhou Shu wanted to leave, there were probably not many people who could make him stay. Tang Qi might not be one of them.
But Zhou Shu didn’t dare to attack now. Meng Bai and the others were behind him. From the looks of it, if he really resisted, Tang Qi might not consider the soldiers behind him.
With Tang Qi’s Grotto-Heaven realm cultivation, once he unleashed his power, even if he didn’t do it on purpose, these soldiers would probably be implicated.
“If you want me to go with you, you have to at least tell me where you’re taking me.” Zhou Shu said coldly.
“To the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven for trial, of course,” Tang Qi said. “You’ve committed such a serious crime. My Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven has already shown you mercy by not issuing a kill order against you. You’d better not make a mistake.”
Tang Qi was basically saying that Zhou Shu had committed a serious crime and was still alive because the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven was showing mercy.
Zhou Shu sneered in his heart. He turned to look at Meng Bai and the others and said coldly, “Alright, I’ll follow you!”
He didn’t know what serious crime he had committed.
Because of him, the Demon Kings of the Demon Realm woke up early?
Because of him, the Demon Kings of the Demon Realm tore open the barrier between the two worlds?
Zhou Shu didn’t know what he had done to have such an effect.
It was impossible for the other party to put the blame on him!
Swish!
Tang Qi casually swung his hand, and a chain landed on Zhou Shu’s body.
Zhou Shu’s expression was cold. His fingers moved slightly, but he still endured it in the end. He didn’t resist and allowed the chains to lock him up.
“Your Highness!” Meng Bai, Wang Mu, and the others in the camp exclaimed.
“Daddy!” A small figure darted out with monstrous killing intent.
Tang Qi looked puzzled. He took a step forward, and his aura rose again.
Zhou Shu stood between Tang Qi and Xiaoyu’er and shouted, “Xiaoyu’er, stop!”
“Daddy! How dare he chain you? Let me beat him to death!” Xiaoyu’er clenched her fists, her face filled with anger.
Tang Qi’s expression was mischievous. He sized up Xiaoyu’er, his eyes flashing with curiosity.
Such a young child was actually at the Grotto-Heaven realm?
Although she was much inferior to him, it was only right since she was much younger. But how was this possible?
Or did she just look small?
Zhou Shu noticed Tang Qi’s expression, and his heart skipped a beat. He blocked Xiaoyu’er behind him and looked at Tang Qi coldly. “This has nothing to do with them. If you dare to hurt the innocent, I won’t let you off.”
“You won’t let me off?” Tang Qi laughed loudly. “The ignorant are really fearless!
“Don’t worry. I won’t attack a child.
“Let’s go.”
Tang Qi pulled the chain in his hand, and Zhou Shu staggered.
The chain was not an ordinary chain. It was a divine weapon.
As it locked Zhou Shu, he felt that all the spiritual essence in his body was restrained, unable to be mobilized at all.
“Don’t act rashly!”
Zhou Shu noticed that the soldiers in the camp were all furious and wanted to rush out to save him and hurriedly shouted.
Tang Qi’s cultivation was unfathomable. Even if Meng Bai and the others attacked together, they would definitely not be his match.
“Great General, I’ll leave the camp to you. After this is over, bring them back to Great Xia and wait for me!” Zhou Shu continued to shout. “Xiaoyu’er, go back and protect your mother. Before I return, you’re not allowed to take half a step away from her!”
Before he could finish speaking, Zhou Shu was pulled by Tang Qi with the chain and disappeared into the horizon like a prisoner.
Even if Meng Bai and the others wanted to do something, they couldn’t catch up now.
Just as Zhou Shu and Tang Qi disappeared into the sky, the Qin emperor walked out from the defense line of the bronze chariots in the distance.
His expression was solemn. With every step he took, his body swayed as if he was about to fall.
Seeing this, Xu Shi rushed out and flew to the Qin emperor’s side.
“Your Majesty.” He reached out to support the Qin emperor and realized that his face was pale and his body was trembling slightly.
“Your Majesty, King Zhou has been captured,” Xu Shi whispered. “What exactly happened?”
Previously, when the Qin emperor walked into the camp of the grotto-heavens, an expert walked out and took Zhou Shu away.
Now that the Qin emperor was like this, he was very curious about what the Qin emperor had discussed with him in the camp.
“Let’s go back to the capital.” The Qin emperor’s voice was a little hoarse. “Take the elite soldiers of Great Qin with you. Don’t let any of them stay here!
“Don’t let anyone from Great Qin stay within a hundred kilometers of the defense line. Do it now!”
Xu Shi could feel the Qin emperor’s arm trembling slightly. He seemed to use all his strength to say this.
After speaking, the Qin emperor seemed to lose all his strength. If not for Xu Shi supporting him, he would have collapsed to the ground.
Xu Shi frowned. “Retreat everyone? Are we not going to care about this place? What if the Demon Realm army returns?”
The Qin emperor only shook his head without saying anything.
Xu Shi hesitated for a moment before saying, “Yes!
“Your Majesty, what about the Ten Nations Alliance army that King Zhou brought back from the Demon Realm?”
In the camp at the back, there were not only Great Qin elite soldiers but also Meng Bai and the Ten Nations Alliance army that had returned from the Demon Realm.
“Someone will take them over,” the Qin emperor said and then remained silent.
Xu Shi’s heart skipped a beat. Take over? There was a huge problem with these two words.
It wasn’t that the Ten Nations Alliance didn’t have a commander. Why would someone take over them?
Thinking back to how Zhou Shu had been taken away, Xu Shi was shocked.
“Your Majesty…” Xu Shi’s voice was a little dry. “General Wang Mu and the others are still in the Ten Nations Alliance army.
“They are heroes of our Ten Nations. We can’t leave them alone!”
“It’s still too early to tell whether they’re heroes or traitors.” The Qin emperor closed his eyes and shook his head. “Someone will investigate. Minister Xu, do as I say. Immediately!”
