The room fell silent upon hearing this.
Everyone was stunned, their eyes wide open.
Emperor of Liang, Empress of Liang!
Suddenly, everyone who was looking at the man and two women on the city wall seemed a little lost.
Because they never expected that Xiao Jingyi would actually appear here.
They knew about the legends surrounding Xiao Jingyi.
This is the great emperor who unified the world!
As long as he is there, all things submit to him, and no one dares to rebel against him.
In their view, there are very few people who could defeat Wang Xianzhi.
But Xiao Jingyi definitely can!
This is a man defying Heaven!
Those who had previously clamored to teach Xiao Jingyi and his group a lesson now fell silent, some even bowing their heads low, fearing that Xiao Jingyi would seek revenge later.
Some even slipped out of the crowd and fled.
This is no place to stay; I need to get out of here right away.
For a moment, the scene was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
"Hehe, Wang Xianzhi, you look quite good."
Seeing this, Xiao Jingyi put his hands behind his back and looked at Wang Xianzhi indifferently.
"Thank you for your praise, Your Majesty," Wang Xianzhi replied.
At the same time, Minister Nangong returned to Xiao Jingyi's side, his gaze fixed on Wang Xianzhi with ill intent.
"Wang Xianzhi, I consider the difficulty of your cultivation, and I will now give you a chance to end your own life. What do you say?"
It was a very simple sentence, yet it sent a jolt through everyone's hearts.
To end it all himself?
Or was it Wang Xianzhi?
Wait, is it really that domineering?
Just when everyone thought Wang Xianzhi wouldn't agree, to everyone's surprise, he actually agreed. He stroked his beard and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty of Great Liang. I, Wang Xianzhi, agree."
Wang Xianzhi's thinking was simple: he was doomed to die today.
Whether you agree or not, there will be no good outcome.
There's nothing we can do; these are all mistakes we made in the past.
Moreover, he also knew that given Xiao Jingyi's domineering nature, Wudi City would never allow itself to stand independently outside the court in the future, so it would be better to skip the process and get straight to the result.
Moreover, Xiao Jingyi had already shown him respect by letting him end his own life; if he refused, he would probably lose even that last bit of dignity.
Thinking of this, Wang Xianzhi took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I just wonder if Your Majesty could grant me a small request?"
"You want to negotiate with me? Tell me, what is it?"
Xiao Jingyi looked at Wang Xianzhi as if she were a fool, but he also wanted to hear what she had to say.
"Your Majesty, please spare the people of Wudi City."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jingyi chuckled and said, "Wudi City is now a city of Daliang. How I treat these people is none of your business."
"Wang Xianzhi, don't you think your request is unnecessary?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xianzhi was taken aback. He hadn't expected Xiao Jingyi to say such a thing, but upon reflection, it was indeed true.
0 ········Requesting flowers·· ····
He immediately replied, "I was overthinking it."
Then he bowed to Xiao Jingyi and said, "In that case, I entrust the Martial Emperor City to Your Majesty."
"bump!"
The next moment, Wang Xianzhi's body trembled, and then countless particles swirled around him.
"After decades of cultivating the Tao, I never imagined that one wrong step would lead to eternal regret."
"Today, the soldiers are gone, and Wang Xianzhi and Wudi City will never exist again!"
His words carried far and wide, and then the sky and clouds changed dramatically, making Wang Xianzhi's radiance even more dazzling.
Finally, dazzling golden light illuminated the entire world, and after a moment, the sky returned to silence.
Wang Xianzhi, who was originally standing in the sky, had long since disappeared and dissolved into the world.
.... ...... ...
"Immortal Wang... he just died like that?"
"He was Wang Xianzhi, the second best in the world, how could he die so...so easily?"
"His Majesty of Great Liang... is too powerful. Even Wang Xianzhi dares not confront him."
"This...this...."
Wang Xianzhi made Wudi City what it is today, and Wudi City made Wang Xianzhi what it is today.
The people of this city have long regarded him as a pillar of support.
When Wang Xianzhi passed away, everyone in Wudi City stared blankly, unable to believe it was true.
He took his own life.
"Nangong, is this to your liking?"
Xiao Jingyi didn't care about all that. Even if ten or a hundred Wang Xianzhi died, he wouldn't have any psychological change.
Upon hearing this, Minister Nangong nodded: "To die like this is too easy for him."
However, she still put away her knife and stood obediently beside Xiao Jingyi.
.....
Several days later, news of Xiao Jingyi's arrival in Wudi City and his coercion of Wang Xianzhi to commit suicide spread throughout the world.
The martial arts world was shaken.
Wang Xianzhi was a very famous figure in the martial arts world. When the various kingdoms were being established, he had already become someone that many martial artists looked up to.
But such a legend has now been forced to his death.
This is hard for many to accept, but at the same time, it makes people increasingly afraid of Da Liang.
Many sects have repeatedly emphasized that they must be careful when they see soldiers and officials from Daliang and must not offend them.
In short, this time Xiao Jingyi planted the seeds of submission in the hearts of these sects.

As a result, Wang Xianzhi's death terrified all the sects, who feared they would be next.
But some are afraid, while others break down the old and build anew.
In other words, fear reaches a certain level, leading to a desperate fight.
For example, Xiao Jingyi was assassinated after leaving Wudi City with Xu Weixiong and Nangong Pushe.
"Your Highness, all the assassins who came to kill us have been dealt with."
After learning that Xiao Jingyi was in Wudi City, Han Le led the Unspeakable Cavalry to chase after him.
After all, it was fine before Xiao Jingyi's whereabouts were not exposed, but now that his whereabouts have been exposed, Han Le and the others rushed over to prevent any villains from taking action against him.
His choice to come here was the right one.
Because they encountered at least three assassination attempts along the way.
They varied in strength, but none of them posed any threat to Xiao Jingyi.
"Oh?"
"These assassins are really stubborn, '793'."
Xiao Jingyi didn't care at all, then looked at Han Le and stared at him, saying, "Han Le, since you've killed so many people, you must have gotten some information from them, right?"
Upon hearing this, Han Le was taken aback, then respectfully replied, "Your Majesty, this servant did indeed learn some information from several assassins."
"They seem to have heard that Your Majesty intends to destroy all martial arts in the world, and they are indignant, which is why they made their move."
"In addition, some sects have been moving around very frequently these past few days."
"I...want to annihilate all martial arts under heaven?"
Hearing this, Xiao Jingyi chuckled: "Are these people really so brainless? They believe whatever others say."
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingyi asked, "When did the news start?"
"Ever since Your Majesty ordered Wang Xianzhi to be executed..."
"source."
"Rumors are circulating that someone is deliberately trying to mislead the public."
"Song Zhong".
Xiao Jingyi looked at Song Zhong, because Mao Xiang had taken some of the Imperial Guards out to fight, and now Song Zhong was in command of the Imperial Guards on the Liang side.
"The minister is here."
"How's the investigation going?"
Xiao Jingyi didn't believe that the Embroidered Uniform Guard would be unaware of such a large public opinion.
If there is no investigation, then there is no need for the Embroidered Uniform Guard to exist.
Fortunately, Song Zhong was prepared: "Your Majesty, the source of the spread has been found. It is a group of beggars who were paid by an old man to spread the word."
"Old man."
Xiao Jingyi pondered for a moment: "The Great Liang Dynasty has taken over so many dynasties, there are many old relics like this, is there a definite range?"
"Your Majesty, we have roughly determined who it is."
Clearly, Song Zhong is more efficient.
This is also the current operating style of the Embroidered Uniform Guard. When something happens, they will investigate first, so that they can respond when Xiao Jingyi inquires.
After all, everyone knows that what His Majesty needs are ministers who can relieve his worries.
Instead of being a minister who has to concern himself with everything.
For some things and some people, it's good to take the initiative.
"Liyang Province, Qiyang Long, Huang Longshi."
Song Zhong said in a deep voice that he was also surprised when he deduced the identity of this person, after all, these two people are very famous.
In the land of Liyang, of the twelve Jia of spring and autumn, Huang Longshi alone occupies three.
Qi Yanglong was also the former national advisor of the Li Yang Dynasty, and his methods were astonishing.
However, he hadn't confirmed his deduction yet, which is why he hadn't told Xiao Jingyi yet.
Upon hearing his report, Xiao Jingyi reviewed the two individuals' information in his mind.
Qi Yanglong, the Grand Master of Shangyin Academy and the Imperial Preceptor of the current dynasty, holds a transcendent position. He was previously appointed as the Grand Secretary in Chang'an City, but when the Liang army came, Emperor Liyang ordered him to retire.
Moreover, he had three disciples: Yuan Benxi, Xun Ping, and Xie Feiyu, all of whom were unparalleled strategists who were astounding.
Xie Feiyu, one of them, has already died at his hands.
Huang Longshi was even more extraordinary.
He was recognized as the best in the nineteen arts, the best in cursive script and Yin-Yang divination, and was renowned throughout the world. He was once the most outstanding student of Shangyin Academy and the last disciple of the first Confucian sage.
Along with Hanrenmao and Xu Xiao, he was known as one of the three most notorious villains in the martial arts world, deserving of death by everyone.
He was aware of the trends and developments in the world, and later died after Xu Da, the spendthrift son, killed the dragon.
"If it's the two of them, it wouldn't be surprising."
