Chapter 347: Heavenly Saber Pavilion’s Trump Card
To prevent the Heavenly Saber Pavilion from regaining their past glory, the Royal Court looked for opportunities to inflict a huge disaster upon the Heavenly Saber Pavilion again.
The Qin Emperor made a decisive move, wanting to send a warship into the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. This was like stabbing a saber into the Heavenly Saber Pavilion, limiting their growth.
When Jiang Chi saw the cannon ports open and the golden warships ready for battle, he maintained a calm expression. He said indifferently, “Nangong Lie, it looks like you enjoy playing with fire. I shall play along with you then!”
Nangong Lie’s heart thumped heavily. He thought to himself, Could the Heavenly Saber Pavilion still have some trump cards?
That is not possible, the moment Nangong Lie thought of that, he shook his head. If they truly had more trump cards, the Heavenly Saber Pavilion would not have been reduced to rubble.
They are one of the great sects; how could they watch their own sect get destroyed like this? Even if they had trump cards, they have probably used them already. After the huge, continuous battles, they do not retain much combat prowess.
Nangong Lie continued to smile in a lukewarm manner, “Brother Jiang Chi, the intent to enter the Heavenly Saber Pavilion is not mine You should be clear on whose it is. I hope you will not make things difficult for me.”
Jiang Chi said indifferently, “In that case, send him here to speak with me personally.”
Before Nangong Lie could speak, an adjutant beside him shouted, “Insolent, what are you?! How dare you speak such words? Is his majesty someone you can meet as you wish?!”
“How dare you speak to Elder Jiang Chi like this. Apologise to Elder Jiang now.” Nangong Lie reprimanded the adjutant hypocritically. Then, he turned to face Jiang Chi and smiled, “My subordinate does not understand the rule. I will discipline him on your behalf when we return.
Jiang Chi’s expression remained extremely calm; his eyes were as tranquil as water in an ancient well. He said indifferently, “There is no need; he is already dead.”
Nangong Lie’s expression changed, and he quickly looked to the side. A tiny wound had appeared on the neck of that adjutant at an unknown time.
