Chapter 43 Yu the Great, Get Out of the Way

Si Chen said, "When I return, General Qin, please assign me three hundred brave warriors. I will have a great use for them. I will first go and resolve the matters in Jiaozhou, and then come to pay my respects."

Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

Si Chen reached out and patted their shoulders. "From now on, you'll be living underwater. Take advantage of this time to eat something good, because it'll probably be a long time before you taste anything."

The two men's faces turned somewhat green.

It was as if they were tainted by some indescribable ancient god.

Si Chen laughed loudly and left.

a long time.

Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming finally raised their heads in confirmation, "That guy is finally gone."

"That was absolutely terrifying."

"Aunt, are you really going to do this?"

Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming stood around Qin Liangyu, looking conflicted. This behavior was truly challenging the bottom line of humanity.

No matter how hard we search, it shouldn't be enough to completely submerge the entire Xichuan region.

Qin Liangyu closed her eyes. "Do you think he can't do it if I don't agree?"

I only heard about this great and virtuous teacher a few days ago.

Today, he suddenly arrived in Kuizhou, in this Baidi City, to discuss important matters with me.

They act so discreetly, yet they are completely open with us.

If I refuse, what will you do? What will happen to the stone pillars? For another ten thousand years, he will be all alone; how will he lead the stone pillars?

It's not a refusal, but an inability.

Si Chen is determined to achieve great things, so for this goal, are they also among those to be executed? Are they just a series of sacrifices, or are they living, breathing people?

Qin Liangyu felt a chill run down her spine at the thought.

Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming buried their heads and wept bitterly, "How did the world become like this?"

Qin Liangyu said, "You two brothers, go back to Shizhu and keep an eye on Wannian."

"aunt!"

"Get out of here! I can fight my way out even if it's a thousand armies. Do you want to stay here and hold me back?"

"Oh dear! Yes." Qin Yiming and Qin Gongming sighed and turned to leave.

It felt as if a demon was chasing after me.

He led a thousand stone pillar soldiers and boarded more than twenty boats, hurrying back.

By then, Si Chen had already crossed over to Chongqing.

He glanced down at the city and then walked straight across the confluence of the Jialing and Yangtze Rivers. The military equipment of Jiangbei City and the main city was sparse and ordinary, and the fierce aura of the troops was merely superficial.

He then ignored it and continued to trace the Yangtze River upstream for six hundred miles.

The sword light flew away for about an hour.

Suddenly, the view opened up before me.

Si Chen bowed his head.

The Great Statue of Zhengjian is located three miles east of Jiading Prefecture, across the river, in the heart of Lingyun Mountain, with the Pingtian Temple above its head and holding the Yu King's Axe.

From a high altitude, Lingyun Mountain appears lush and verdant, resembling a person lying down.

It's spectacular.

Jiading Prefecture City was built on the west bank of the Minjiang River. The city walls were built along the river, and Mount Emei could be vaguely seen. The soldiers of the garrison in the city patrolled the parapets.

"I'm sorry to trouble you to move. I will certainly sculpt a new statue of you in the future." Si Chen silently recited the name of the God Taiyi in his heart. "I have offended you greatly."

He slightly raised his fingers.

A tiny ray of light fell from the sky.

At the Jiaozhou ferry, everyone felt a burning sensation on their heads. They looked up and saw a beam of light descend from the sky, piercing through the stone statue of Yu the Great.

Day after day, the sights stretch endlessly, too numerous to take in.

The earth is turbulent, and the rivers are surging.

A sound like thunder shook the earth, a dark cloud rose with the wind, the river surface churned violently, and people fell into the water like dumplings being dropped into a pot.

Within a radius of 100 meters, sand and stones fly through the air at Lingyun Mountain.

The earth veins that Yu the Great suppressed are now churning underground.

Countless birds fell from the sky.

Immediately afterwards, a wave of air swept up the water vapor from the river and descended from the sky, drenching everyone to the bone.

"Divine punishment!"

"Lord Yu, please calm down!"

The cries of mourning from the people are endless.

Si Chen spread his five fingers, grabbed them all, and rescued all the unconscious people who had fallen into the water. He then administered some Fuling Elixir, concealed his presence, and sped towards Chengdu.

This place is only about 210 li away from Chengdu.

The intense tremors and explosions took a long time to reach this place, and the warriors of the Chengdu City Garrison immediately sprang into action, their chaotic and menacing formations visible from afar.

Si Chen landed on the roof of the Shu King's mansion, his body swaying slightly.

Within the inner realm, the Three Enclosures, Four Symbols, and Twenty-Eight Mansions all trembled simultaneously.

A crimson line of text appeared above the inscription: "Grand Master of the Nine Heavens, the Principal of Yin and Yang, who patrols the two realms."

"Those who deceive and oppress the people and their ancestors shall be punished with one hundred strokes of the cane. Those who knowingly and deliberately violate the laws of Heaven shall be punished even more severely. A detailed report shall be submitted to Fengdu and relayed to Beiman Mountain. This shall be considered a major demerit, and they shall be ordered to atone for their crime through meritorious service!"

This was, after all, the achievement of Yu the Great in controlling the floods. The laws of the Heavenly Court were strict, and even the Heavenly Officials were not exempt. Fortunately, the punishment was lenient and only slightly lenient.

A beam of mysterious light descended from the location of Fomalhaut in the inner celestial star map.

In Si Chen's path of cultivation, in addition to "First Generation Dragon Descendant", "Celestial Official", "Mind Over Matters", "Unity of Heaven and Man", and "Abandoning Sagehood and Wisdom", one more word is added.

"The Six Heavenly Demon Kings - Demon Among Demons": The Northern Desolate Horns pierce the Purple Palace, swaying like a broom, obscuring the Hu Star.

After circling the five already lit stars once, the mystical light crashed down.

The two large characters in bronze script, "Slay the Demon," came to mind.

Then three bolts of lightning struck down on him.

Suddenly, I felt a burning pain in my internal organs.

Si Chen opened his eyes and found himself in a completely different world. He coughed up a mouthful of blood and wiped it away.

The original plan was to cultivate the immortal path from the Classic of Mountains and Seas, but then a demon king appeared.

That's it, that's it.

Si Chen wiped his eyes with his hand, looked at the aura in various parts of the Shu King's mansion, and went straight to the residence of the three cyan aura pillars.

Prince Zhu Zhishu of Shu was in his study with Governor Chen Shiqi and Commander-in-Chief Liu Jiayin.

Si Chen raised his hand and pressed down, creating a strong sense of oppression.

Everyone's face turned red, their legs trembled, and they instantly fainted.

This is an overwhelming display of power and life force.

"Traitor! Prepare to die!"

The moment Si Chen pushed open the door, a sword light shot straight at his face.

He raised his hand, pinched it between two fingers, and swung it back.

General Liu Jiayin watched in horror as the three-foot-long sword in his hand broke into countless afterimages as it attacked.

Governor Chen Shiqi opened his mouth and spat out a stream of "Great Vajrabhairava Embers".

Si Chen raised his hand and flicked out a three-inch silver-white sword light.

It went around Chen Shiqi's neck.

A line of blood slowly appeared on Chen Shiqi's neck. Chen Shiqi pointed at Si Chen, then hugged his neck and slowly fell down.

A large amount of blood gushed out like a fountain.

The King of Shu had bloodstains all over his face, and his legs were trembling uncontrollably.

The sword light swirled, and the "Vajrabhairava Embers" technique, having lost its momentum, suddenly dissipated, leaving only a scorching afterglow.

General Liu Jiayin transformed the blood covering his body into a gilded silver goose-wing blade, holding the blade in one hand and protecting the King of Shu behind him with the other.

"The Heavenly Official?" Prince Zhu Zhishu of Shu asked incredulously.

Liu Jiayin suddenly realized what was happening, then turned pale with shock and asked, "Are you also plotting a rebellion?"

Si Chen reached out and found a grand chair in the dilapidated room and sat down.

He gazed at the mangled corpse of Governor Chen Shiqi and said, "What a pity, I didn't intend to kill anyone."

The "Great Vajrabhairava Ember Fire" is a divine power of the Ember Warrior, used to kill evil spirits and heretics, and it is completely effective against Si Chen in his current state.

"The two of you."

"Please have a seat."

Prince Zhu Zhishu of Shu helped Liu Jiayin sit down slowly, saying, "Your Excellency, please give your orders. If there is anything that can be done, I will do my utmost."

Si Chen looked at the two men and said, "Give me your official seals. Do it immediately."

Prince Zhu Zhishu of Shu looked at Liu Jiayin and urged him hurriedly, "Go!"

Liu Jiayin put away his weapon and staggered toward the door.

"Don't try anything funny, you'll die a horrible death."

Si Chen's voice reached their ears, and Zhu Zhishu and Liu Jiayin nodded stiffly.

The footsteps gradually faded into the distance.

Si Chen grabbed a piece of silk and threw it at him, "Wipe it off, it looks awful."

Zhu Zhishu nodded awkwardly. The blood from earlier mixed with his cold sweat was extremely foul-smelling, but he didn't dare to move.

Fifteen minutes later.

Three gold seals appeared on the tray.

Liu Jiayin looked dejected and shook his head almost imperceptibly at Zhu Zhishu.

Forget about relying on those lousy, incompetent people in their garrison.
