Not to mention Su Hu sending troops to the East China Sea, let’s just say that Emperor Xin led a large army and marched towards the North Sea in a mighty manner.

On this day, when they arrived at Chentang Pass, Li Jing, the general of Chentang Pass, personally led people to greet them.

"Your Majesty, I have already prepared a palace in Guanzhong. Please follow me into the city to rest."

After hearing this, Emperor Xin nodded, and then ordered Zhang Kui and others to set up camp outside Chentang Pass.

He took Yuan Hong, Wuzhiqi, and the brothers Gao Ming and Gao Jue with him, and followed Li Jing into Chentang Pass.

Li Jing never dreamed that Emperor Xin would bring only four people with him and enter Chentang Pass.

If he had any rebellious intentions, Emperor Xin's actions would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.

It’s a pity that Li Jing could never have imagined that any one of the four ugly guards around Emperor Xin could beat the shit out of him.

Now, just because he had changed his appearance as a human, Li Jing treated him as nothing. He even had some different thoughts in his mind.

As soon as Emperor Xin followed Li Jing into the General's Mansion, they saw a group of beautiful women coming up to them.

This inevitably made Emperor Xin frown for a moment, and he just snorted coldly, frightening the beauties so much that they all fell to their knees.

At this time, Emperor Xin also directly asked Li Jing: "Why don't you see my sister Shi Niang?"

Seeing how Emperor Xin arranged this for him, Li Jing couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat and quickly spoke to Emperor Xin.

"Your Majesty, you may not know that the princess has been pregnant for more than two years. So far, there is no sign of childbirth. She is currently resting in the backyard, so she has not come to see Your Majesty."

Emperor Xin couldn't help but frown after hearing this. "Ten months of pregnancy, one day of birth. Why has my sister been pregnant for two years and still not given birth?"

"Could it be that there is a demon in your Chen Tang Pass who secretly did something to my sister?"

Li Jing hurriedly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you may not know that my son's master has already been seen by the princess."

"It is said that the princess is pregnant with a star general. In the future, he will make great contributions to the human race. It will take three years and six months for him to be born."

After hearing this, Emperor Xin couldn't help but sneer and said, "You believe such a ridiculous statement. I wonder who your son's master is?"

When Li Jing heard Emperor Xin asking about his son's master, a hint of pride appeared on his face. He immediately said to Emperor Xin.

"Reporting to the king, my two sons are disciples of Samantabhadra and Manjusri, respectively. They are the direct disciples of the Chan Sect for three generations."

"And the one who said that the princess would need to be pregnant for three years and six months before giving birth was Manjusri Bodhisattva of the Chan School. So I think it should be correct."

At this moment, Emperor Xin was extremely shocked, because everything he learned was exactly the same as what Niu Kui said.

"It seems that what the Saint Master said is true. Li Jing has long had a rebellious heart. His two sons have even gone to the opposite side of the Great Shang and the human race."

Thinking this in his mind, Emperor Xin prepared to solve this biggest problem according to Niu Kui's instructions.

He immediately said, "Since my sister is pregnant with a potential general, why don't we let her accompany me to the North Sea this time?"

"In order to make it easier for someone to take care of her, you can take your two sons with you and serve as vanguard officers under Shi Niang's command."

"I will find someone to take over the post of Chentang Pass commander temporarily. When we return victorious, I will let you take over the post again." After saying this, Emperor Xin walked directly into the inner hall. He wanted to see his cousin Yin Shiniang as soon as possible.

Yin Shiniang was a daughter of the royal family, and it was because Yin Shiniang married Li Jing that Li Jing had the opportunity to become the general of Chentang Pass.

Although the blood relationship between Yin Shi Niang and Emperor Xin had been diluted over several generations, the two were of similar age and had often met since childhood, so their relationship was very harmonious.

So when the brother and sister met, they were inevitably reserved. Then Emperor Xin proposed that Yin Shi Niang lead the army to the battle.

In response to this, Yin Shiniang agreed without hesitation and even demonstrated her skills in front of Emperor Xin.

She said that even if she was pregnant, it would not affect her ability to fight in the battlefield.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Xin couldn't help but feel very happy, and immediately said to Yin Shiniang: "Shi Niang, I heard that there is an arrow tower in Chentang Pass."

"Inside is the Qiankun bow used by Emperor Xuanyuan, as well as three sky-shaking arrows. I wonder if you would like to take me to have a look."

After hearing this, Yin Shi Niang agreed without hesitation. Then she personally took Emperor Xin to the Arrow Tower.

This arrow tower was built on the city wall, and at first there were special soldiers guarding it. But because no one could pull the Qiankun bow, it was gradually ignored.

Now there was not even a single soldier guarding the place. Even the gate of the arrow tower was ajar.

Seeing this scene, Emperor Xin couldn't help but frown, and immediately said to Li Jing: "Is this how you protect the things left by our ancestors?"

Emperor Xin's words were full of coldness, which made Li Jing sweat profusely. He immediately opened his mouth to explain to Emperor Xin.

"Your Majesty, you don't know that no one can pull the Qiankun Bow. Even my son's master, a great Golden Immortal, can't do it."

"Since no one can pull the bow, naturally no one will try to take it. So..."

Before Li Jing finished speaking, Emperor Xin snorted coldly and said, "So you removed the guards and left the things left by our ancestors to gather dust here?"

Li Jing didn't dare to argue at this time, he just knelt on the ground and looked at Yin Shiniang for help.

Seeing her husband like this, Yin Shi Niang said to Emperor Xin: "Brother Wang, I heard that to pull the Qiankun Bow, one needs the energy of a human emperor, and one's cultivation must reach the Daluo Jinxian realm."

"Without the energy of the Human Emperor, even if you are a quasi-saint, you cannot pull the bowstring even a little bit. But now the Human Emperor cannot practice, otherwise you, my brother, could give it a try."

Yin Shiniang did not directly plead for Li Jing, but chose to change the subject, which was also equivalent to letting Li Jing escape punishment in disguise.

Although Emperor Xin understood his sister's true intention, he did not dwell on the matter.

Instead, he spoke directly to Yin Shi Niang, "In that case, sister, you lead the way. I want to try out this Qiankun Bow today."

Yin Shiniang smiled and nodded, then reached out and pushed open the half-closed door.

As the door was pushed open, a cloud of dust rose up, which made Emperor Xin frown again.

When Emperor Xin walked into the arrow tower, he could no longer suppress his anger. He turned around and kicked Li Jing.

"Li Jing, you deserve to die." (End of this chapter)
