Azief path and the path of that Emperor is different and they should not have interfered with each other nor is there a reason for them to meet or form a relationship with each other
But he moves toward that city because it seems the Emperor path is blocking his path. Since that is the case, one person had to make way.
And Azief is not going to be the person that gives way. Azief path is very straightforward.
Thus, even though the Three Devils had advised him not to go, even when his disciple pleads with him to think of the common people, the wheel spoke of his chair moves toward the Imperial city
So, he scrapped his other plans to make his intention clear to the Emperor.
And then after a few days of hard journey, after killing everyone that had tried to stop him from reaching the imperial city, from the people of the orthodox sect and the heterodox sect, that famous wheelchair and the famous person sitting on top of it finally reached the gates of the Imperial city
And no one knows how to feel when the Sword God really arrived in front of the imperial city. There is a mixed feeling of awe, respect and fear.
The Sword God legends has been spread about on the martial arts world since that battle on the Five Element Mountain
His story was turned into legend.
The words, three Devils One Demon and One God were popular.
Kids pretend to be him, sitting on a wheelchair with a sword on their laps, saying the words he said during his battle with many heroes and villains of the world.
They role-play as him fighting Heaven Reaching Swordsman and Red Butterfly using wooden sword
When he arrived at the imperial city of Zhou, an army try to intercept him at that time. They come out in droves from the imperial city, all of them attack them the moment they enter.
Azief at that time expected that. But he still enters the city. He has his own plans at that time. HE also wants to train Xi Feng.
It was an epic battle. Xi Feng sword light evolves and had a trace of his will. There is still confusion in his path but his path of the sword firmed up.
The Three Devils also enter that battle and in these life and death battle, they were all promoted to Half Step to grandmaster level in that battle.
It wasn't until he had ordered them to stop and they refuse that Azief finally make a move.
Like before, Azief use that sword strike to pierce through the army formation.
This time many of the martial artist that were not present in that battle on top of the Five Element Mountain finally saw the powerful sword light of the sword god
Azief sword light this time has evolved. Since Azief has slowly stabilizes his body, and the seals on his body are all almost being broken, this time his sword light created a phenomenon that is even terrifying than before
His sword light illuminated the world, thunder roars up in the skies that the citizen of Zhou thought judgement day has arrived.
The wind howls as the wild wind wreck some houses in the imperial city. The light is blinding and all encompassing.
And when the sword light fade away, the thunders stops, the wind fizzled out and the world is calm.
In that silence of calmness, the sound of cracking was apparent.
When the citizens of the imperial city look toward the imperial city gate, they saw the city walls slowly cracks, from top to bottom.
And before it could have the chance to crumble down, the bricks slowly fade up as the wind blows the walls.
The walls turn into finely chopped dust with one sword strike from the Sword God
There was only silence and disbelief when they saw that scene.
It wasn't until now that the world truly believes that Sword God was the one that executed that sword light that ended the life of the Emperor of Yong and Zhou
Azief sighed when he was in front of the emptiness that used to be the city walls.
Azief did not want to kill the new young Emperor. Emperor Wen seems like an enlightened Emperor, generous and benevolent and caring about the plight of the common people
Since he came to power, he tries to emulate the conduct of the past wise Emperor so Azief was reluctant to kill him.
There is no great enmity between them and Azief is not some manic killer that kills everything that moves.
The Emperor is so young and Azief would find that it would be in bad taste to kill such a young kid. And he himself is not that angry that the Emperor tries to kill him.
He after all di kill that young man father. It is only reasonable that the son would try to avenge his father.
So Azief chose mercy. He chose mercy because he is powerful.
Only the strong could have ether power to grace a person with mercy.
That has always bene the case.
He did not worry that the Emperor will keep trying to kill him.
In fact, Azief even respected him doing so. Everyone had said that he could kill anyone regardless of where they are and where they are hiding.
But the young Emperor, to avenge his father has risked his life knowing full well that he could have executed another sword strike and kill him on his throne.
Still he perseveres. That is not a quality that Azief detested. It is a quality in a person that Azief find very admirable.
So, instead of prolonging this enmity, Azief gave him advice on how to rule the world, his voice reverberated all over the Imperial city for one hour.
Azief is qualified to give such advice because he used to be an Emperor in one of Azul lives.
He spoke about the state, about governance, about the people, about life and death about prosperity and the trend of time.
His words could be heard by all the scholars of the imperial city and could be heard by the young Emperor inside his Imperial Palace
When he was done lecturing, he and his disciple leaves the cit. even Xi Feng and the Three Devils of Han did not think that this would end like this.
The Sword God did not kill the young Emperor instead lecture about the world and the path of Emperors.
The Emperor Wen is said to marvel at the content of the words that comes out from the mouth of the Sword god.
As the Sword God and the Sword Demon and the Three Devils left the imperial city, no soldiers seem to be coming out again to fight them
The Emperor cancel his orders to pursue him and he could finally go down to the river that one said the most beautiful in this continent.
