Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 544 - 543: Lifting the Imperial Tomb, Breaking the Capital City!_2

```

"Such terrifying power, to use an ordinary flagpole comparably to a yuan weapon..." Wang Yanzhao, looking at his burst tiger's mouth, was filled with shock in his eyes.

However...

Even more shocked was Hong Ye, who stood beside him.

Hong Ye, unable to believe his eyes, stared at that flagpole and swallowed hard with a gulp, "Thi-this-this flagpole, why does it look somewhat familiar?"

"Familiar?"

Wang Yanzhao was taken aback.

The Sword Emperor also frowned and looked over, and when he saw the blood-stained flag, he trembled all over, and an incomparable and terrifying evil Qi instantly filled the area inside and outside the Wumen, frightening countless experts to shake uncontrollably, all kneeling on the ground. The Sword Emperor stood erect, his hands behind his back, looking up and fixating on the mountain raised above Xiao Yi's head.

"Father, doesn't the building on top of that mountain look a bit like our family's imperial mausoleum?" The third prince rubbed his eyes, speaking with uncertainty and surprise.

Buzz!

The moment the words 'imperial mausoleum' were spoken.

Everyone could feel the temperature in the void drop sharply by several degrees, and a layer of white frost condensed on the ground, the bone-chilling cold emanating from the Sword Emperor.

Thump!

Thump...

All the princes, ministers, and populace felt their hearts pound in fear and accelerated beat.

The imperial mausoleum?

The third prince actually said that what Xiao Yi held above his head was the imperial mausoleum of the Sword Dynasty's royal family?

The imperial mausoleum where the ancestors of the Sword Dynasty's royal family were buried?

The imperial mausoleum is the last dignity of a royal family, and at the same time, it is their bottom line.

Unless the dynasty perishes.

Otherwise...

The imperial mausoleum is of ultimate importance, never allowing anyone to cause the slightest destruction.

But now.

The imperial mausoleum of the Sword Dynasty, no less, had been uprooted by Xiao Yi and held aloft with one hand, directly brought above the imperial capital of the Sword Dynasty?

Gulp!

The moment everyone came back to their senses, they subconsciously swallowed to alleviate the shock in their heats: "This, this guy has gone mad, right?"

"He actually excavated the imperial mausoleum? He's truly seeking a life-and-death feud with the Sword Dynasty!"

"Given the relationship between Xiao Yi and the Sword Dynasty, do you think there's any possibility other than a life-and-death struggle?"

For a time.

All eyes couldn't help but turn towards the Sword Emperor.

Having one's family imperial mausoleum uprooted and brought to the capital in one hand is the most vicious and poisonous slap to any emperor!

High above the void.

Xiao Yi had already brought the imperial mausoleum above Wumen, a massive dark cloud overbearing like the gloom of thunder, obscuring sunlight from Wumen. Elevated and looking down upon the Sword Emperor, their eyes met in the void and clashed with fierce sparks, creating a vacuum where their gazes touched, a ferocious pressure sweeping across in an instant.

Rumble!

Above Wumen, the banners fluttered loudly.

Atop the imperial mausoleum, buildings revealed their true forms in the raging wind.

Those were the tombs of the royal family!

Xiao Yi, looking down at the Sword Emperor, coldly said, "I've heard that His Majesty the Sword Emperor has gone to great lengths to reunite me and my brothers. I felt it rude to come empty-handed, so I've prepared a humble gift for His Majesty the Sword Emperor. I wonder if His Majesty finds it to his liking?"

The Sword Emperor's face twitched violently.

To his liking?

You motherfucker dug up my family's ancestral grave, and you have the gall to ask if I like it?

Suppressing the urge to vomit blood, the Sword Emperor, with a gloomy expression, coldly said, "Xiao Yi, calamity should not extend to one's wife and children, let alone the graves of one's ancestors. By uprooting the Sword Dynasty's imperial mausoleum like this, are you not afraid I might, in a rage, execute all your brothers?"

"No, no, no!"

Xiao Yi grinned and said, "With me here, not a single one of them will be missing!"

"So, you're that confident?" the Sword Emperor said with narrowed eyes.

Xiao Yi casually remarked, "If one of them is harmed, I will destroy one of your tombs. I'm sure everyone is eager to know, given the wealth and strength of the Sword Dynasty, just how much was buried with the departed ancestors. Once I dig up these graves and scatter them across the lands, it might be alright for commoners and beggars to swarm the tombs in search of funeral goods. But if, by some accident, the bones of your ancestors are dug up and cast aside, to be fed to stray dogs and cats, that's not something you'd want to see, is it?"

Boom!

The execution platform beneath the Sword Emperor instantly shattered.

His gaze was sharper than ever.

At that moment, the Sword Emperor wished nothing more than to immediately strike and tear Xiao Yi to a thousand pieces.

But...

Just as Xiao Yi had said, he really was afraid!

Even now, with Xiao Yi having captured him and threatening his life, the Sword Emperor didn't feel as troubled as he did at this moment.

This was the grave of his ancestors!

If Xiao Yi really were to dig it up, allowing ruffians and every Tom, Dick, and Harry to desecrate it, how could he face his deceased ancestors with any dignity?

Hu!

The Sword Emperor let out a deep breath and said coldly, "What exactly do you want in order to spare my ancestors' graves?"

Xiao Yi responded indifferently, "Release my brothers!"

The Sword Emperor's face showed hesitation and after a moment of silence, he gritted his teeth and commanded, "Bring them in, release them all!"

"Your Majesty..."

Wang Yanzhao and Hong Ye looked at the Sword Emperor in unison. They had gone to great lengths to lure Xiao Yi here, was it all to end so anticlimactically?

The Sword Emperor glared fiercely at the two of them and bellowed, "Would you rather watch our royal mausoleums being unearthed one by one?"

Everyone was at a loss for words.

The executioners immediately began unlocking the pipa locks binding Little Lin and the others.

Little Lin tore off the rag from his mouth and looking up at Xiao Yi, laughed heartily, "Boss, I knew you would come back for us!"

Liu Yi said, "Headmaster, let's hurry and go!"

However...

Xiao Yi shook his head, "You all go first!"

He was well aware that he could not leave first and had therefore arranged with Li Jiangwang to plan ahead.

Chiu chiu!

Thousands of black Cangyun Eagles fell from the sky. Xiao Yi spoke in a deep voice, "You go ahead, the Cangyun Eagles will take you to a safe place. Wait for my return!"

"Boss, I'm not leaving!"

"Headmaster, if there's a battle, we'll fight it together, we're not leaving..." shouted the crowd, one after another.

Xiao Yi shouted angrily, "When I say go, you go..."

He knew that he could not possibly leave.

Even if the Sword Emperor allowed him to depart, those strongmen lured by hefty bounties in the shadows wouldn't allow it.

It was different for Little Lin, Liu Yi, and the others.

Their purpose was to draw him here, and as long as he remained, they would be safe.

"Boss..."

Little Lin's face was filled with grief and indignation.

Xiao Yi cracked a smile and said, "Go on, get somewhere safe to heal your wounds and wait for me to return. I will bring you back to the Great Qian Dynasty and seek justice for you!"

Little Lin, Liu Yi, and the others exchanged glances, but they understood the hard truth in Xiao Yi's decision.

"Headmaster, we will wait for your return!"

With tears in their eyes, they shouted with all their strength.

Liu Yi flung up his arm, "We're leaving!"

Swish swish swish!

The Cangyun Eagles soared into the sky and disappeared into the horizon.

Just as Xiao Yi had expected, the Sword Emperor and the others didn't care about the lives of Liu Yi and the rest. Their gazes were concentrated solely on Xiao Yi.

The Sword Emperor, with a gloomy expression, said, "Xiao Yi, I have kept my promise, now it's your turn!"

"No problem!"

Xiao Yi's grin sent a sudden shock to the Sword Emperor's heart; an inner voice told him something was amiss.

Following that...

Xiao Yi's arm swept out suddenly and with a whoosh, the massive royal tomb slammed towards the grand and luxurious imperial palace not far away.

Boom boom boom!

The entire imperial city trembled wildly, like a massive earthquake.

The ground split and the mountains crumbled, as if it were the end of days.

The colossal tomb completely covered the palace, crushing the luxurious edifice into rubble, while Xiao Yi, under the gaze of astounded spectators, lightly dusted off his hands and revealed an ice-cold smirk, "Finally tossed it away, now I can free up my hands to properly settle scores with you!"
