Shang Qiuyuan cupped his fist, placed the gun across his arm, respectfully bowed and said, "These two times, it is to repay the old general's kindness. Qiuyuan will not show mercy, if the old general does not have any other orders, Qiuyuan will send the old general on his way."

Yun Teng did not even look at the wounds on his body as he laughed heartily, "This old man is already barely old, what is there to be afraid of? Just make your move. Today is the day this old man will die for his country."

"In that case, Qiuyuan respectfully sends the old general on his way."

Shang Qiuyuan sat on the horse's back, bowing his head deeply and bowing. When he stood up again, he raised his silver spear and said, "I've made my move. Old General, please receive it."

He Mo could not help but shake his head. Although this Yun Teng was old, his martial arts was still quite good. If it was him against an enemy, he would have to expend some effort in order to win. But looking at Shang Qiuyuan's behavior just now, he was clearly very relaxed and lenient.

The silver spear stabbed out with dazzling brilliance. Shang Qiuyuan did not hold back, he did not want to linger here, wasting time.

If he did not want to kill Yun Teng, then he would not have the determination to destroy Feng Yuan and exterminate the entire Feng Family. Thus, he had to kill Yun Teng himself today. This had nothing to do with the kindness he had shown in the past. When his entire family was exterminated, no one had been able to save them, and even Yun Teng could not save a single person from the Shang family.

"Puchi …"

With a slight sound, the silver spear was hung back into the saddle. Shang Qiuyuan had already jumped down from the horse and knelt on one knee. "We respectfully send old General on his way. Qiuyuan will send old General off!"

He Mo widened his eyes as he watched. Yun Teng's ruddy complexion suddenly turned deathly pale as he broke into a weak smile. He rocked back and forth in the saddle. Blood gushed out from beneath his ribs, dyeing his horses and armor red.

"Alright …"

Yun Teng's body fell below the horse. Shang Qiuyuan lowered his head and jumped on the horse, "He Mo, I shall leave this place to you. If anyone tries to resist, kill them without mercy. If they do not resist, send men to escort them back to the manor and send troops to guard the manor of the old general.

"As you command!"

At this moment, He Mo was dumbstruck. He subconsciously replied, his gaze still fixed on Yun Teng's corpse.

"Shang Qiuyuan killed Yun Teng just like that?"

He rubbed his eyes. Up till now, he still could not believe that Shang Qiuyuan had personally killed Yun Teng, that elder who was like a grandfather to Shang Qiuyuan.

At this moment, the troops led by Shang Qiuyuan had already disappeared into the distance, leaving behind Yun Teng's corpse and a small group of people brought by him. This small force was his family general and his servants, none of whom had been transferred from the army.

Those people were already kneeling on the ground. Their suppressed sobs reverberated on the street. Amongst them, there were no family members of Yun Teng's. He ordered his family members to not come out of the mansion.

Two of them kowtowed on the ground before hiding Yun Teng's corpse and covering it with a white cloth. Although the two of them had tears in their eyes, they did not show any signs of anger or excitement. Instead, they quietly picked up Yun Teng's corpse and placed it on the horse.

"Cough, cough …"

He Mo coughed twice, "You have all heard the orders young prince gave before he left. Are you going to resist to the end, or should this general send someone to escort you back to your residence?"

One of them had no fear on his face. He walked up a few steps, clasped his hands, and said, "General, please send us back. The old general ordered us to escort his body back to the house after he returns to heaven."

"Since that's the case, this general will send someone to escort you back to your residence. As long as you behave yourselves, everything will be fine. No one dares to disobey Young Marquis' order, this general will send his men to protect the Residence of Yun. "

"I'll have to trouble you, General."

The people Yun Teng had brought with him also knew clearly that if they continued to resist, they would lose not only their lives, but even the Residence of Yun would be affected as well. When Yun Teng arrived, he had already instructed them that if they met with Shang Qiuyuan, they would no longer be able to resist after his death. They would escort his corpse back to the mansion and quietly stay in the mansion.

He Mo thought for a moment before calling two people to escort Yun Teng's body back to the residence with a small group of people. He then instructed them in a low voice to follow Shang Qiuyuan's orders.

No one dared to disobey Shang Qiuyuan's military order, because disobeying the orders of a commander in the army was a crime punishable by death.

Moreover, Shang Qiuyuan was the young prince, so they didn't dare disobey him. He Mo did not dare to offend Shang Qiuyuan for the sake of a dead Yun Teng. He was well aware that Shoulder Emperor held this son in high regard.

"Young prince, I, He Mo, will submit to you. I, He Mo, will admire you for the rest of my life. Today, I will truly submit to you!"

He shook his head and sighed in his heart. In terms of using weapons, he was inferior to Shang Qiuyuan, far inferior to him in terms of kung fu. Even with his ruthlessness, he could not compare to Shang Qiuyuan. The current "Young Prince" could be considered to be from the bottom of his heart. He secretly thought that Shang Qiuyuan had the style of a shoulder to shoulder king.

"Young Prince, you killed Yun Teng with your own hands. No matter if it's the Emperor or the Prince, neither of them will suspect you anymore. But, are you loyal to the emperor, or do you stand on the prince's side? "

He still could not understand what was on Shang Qiuyuan's mind. He was not sure if Shang Qiuyuan's feelings towards Wang Shoudao were true or false.

"Young prince, I hope that you will not have any thoughts about the prince and that it is true. Your highness has high expectations of you, and your grace is deep. If you dare to have second thoughts, don't blame me for being heartless in the future. "

His face turned cold. The only master he was loyal to was the Shoulder King. As for the emperor, he didn't put him in his eyes at all. If the King Shoulder Emperor usurped the throne, he would not hesitate to support the King Shoulder King.

The army's advance was smooth and uneventful. On every road, there was Shang Qiu Yuan's original troop, leading the attack on their hearts and persuading them to spread the news, forcing the people everywhere to surrender. At this moment, they began to spread rumors again. They said that the Emperor had escaped, and that Fenggong was now a lonely city.

In the chaos, no one dared to differentiate between truth and falsehood. Few of the generals under Shang Qiuyuan's command, Fenggong, did not recognize him. Most of the people who saw Shang Qiuyuan would surrender or flee.

At this moment, some people had escaped from the East Gate and the North Gate. Shang Qiuyuan had ordered all the city gates to be closed. Without his order, the gate could not be opened.

At this moment, the most important thing was to grasp the entirety of Fenggong in one's hands, and not to hunt down a few unimportant fugitives. Those people wouldn't be able to escape for too long. He had already sent people to clean up the area. However, he was afraid that Feng Jingping might slip through the net, so he sent out two groups of people to chase after those who escaped. They searched the area thoroughly, and if there were any Fengyuan officials, they would go after them.

"Reporting to the marshal, the first line of defense of the palace has been breached. A thorough search is under way."

"Pass my orders, do not destroy any property. Do not kill any people as you please. Arrest the palace maids and eunuchs and interrogate them to search for Fengjing Ping."

"As you command!"

Orders were passed down, and from afar, they could see the Forbidden City in the distance. He couldn't help but slow down his speed. Here, he was a frequent customer. But now, they had come again, and things had changed.

An indescribably deep sorrow welled up in his heart. What was left in this place was only endless pain.

At this moment, the Forbidden City had already been breached. If it could break through the fertile lands, then it was only natural that a small palace like the imperial palace would not speak anymore. Someone had come to report that Shang Qiuyuan was invited to enter the Forbidden City.

He urged his horse into the Forbidden City, where horseback riding was not allowed. It was also the first time he rode into the palace.

"So what if you're trampling on the Forbidden City? "In the end, if I don't get it back, I shall take the lives of a hundred thousand soldiers and their families!"

"Marshal, don't say that. We have yet to get our revenge and that little thief Feng Jingping is still in the wrong. Marshal still has a lot of things to do."

"Search this place thoroughly. Investigate every single person serving Feng Jingping and don't let a single person off."

"As you command!"

"Reporting to the marshal, someone has secretly plundered the imperial palace's property to provoke the woman from the harem."

"Cut to the chase, pass down my orders: no one is to touch any of the treasures and women in the palace. The property was sealed, the woman and the eunuch were taken into custody. Someone disobeyed the military order and immediately executed it! "

"As you command!"

"Pass my order to the generals of each army. The leader of the army under your command will be punished by the military rules. This marshal will not show mercy!"

At this moment, Shang Qiuyuan's refined face was filled with a decisive killing intent. His sharp eyes exuded an endless pressure and a faint killing intent. The hearts of those Southern Champion soldiers grew cold, and they all lowered their heads, not daring to meet Shang Qiuyuan's gaze directly.

Shang Qiuyuan dismounted in front of the throne room and walked in. Looking at the magnificent dragon throne in the center, he sneered, "Fengjing Ping, has your dragon throne ever been hot?"

He stood in the throne room, waiting for his subordinates to report back to him. His gaze swept across the throne room. From today onwards, this Feng Yuan would no longer exist.

A country without an emperor was just an empty shell. If Fengyuan fell into the hands of the Southern Champion, then Fengyuan would be considered exterminated as well. He knew that both the Fire Inverted Scale and the King of Shoulder would not allow another emperor to appear in Fengyuan, and the other three kingdoms would also not allow another emperor to appear. They can openly divide up Fukuhara into their own territory.

"Reporting to the marshal, Feng Jingping has escaped the palace. He might have escaped the palace by now."

Shang Qiuyuan nodded, this matter was within his expectations. There was another secret passage in the Imperial Palace, Feng Jing Ping would definitely escape. However, even he did not know where the secret passageway led to or where it led to. This secret, only the past emperors knew, was their last chance to escape.

"Search, search carefully. Go interrogate Feng Jingping's attendants and see if we can find the secret passage."

His sharp eyes swept across the area. "If I were the emperor of Fengyuan, where would I have built the secret passageway?"

His eyes fell on the dragon throne. He walked to it and carefully looked around. It occurred to him that if he were the Emperor, he would build the secret passage under the Dragon Throne.

He stamped his foot a few times on the ground near the Dragon Throne to see if it was hollow, and thought that if there was a secret passage, not built under the Dragon Throne, it would be in the Emperor's chamber.

"Someone, go to Feng Jingping's sleeping quarters."

He didn't find the tunnel under the Dragon Throne and immediately headed towards Feng Jingping's chambers. As expected, he soon found the secret passage in Feng Jingping's chambers.

Shang Qiuyuan sent people down to the secret passageway to chase after Feng Jingping, but he knew that if they were delayed for too long, Feng Jingping might have already fled far away, and might not be able to catch up with him.

"Send my order to inform the outside of the city through the fireworks. Tell them that Feng Jingping has escaped and order them to search thoroughly. We must capture Feng Jingping."

"As you command."

Shang Qiuyuan had already anticipated Feng Jingping's escape, so he had made an agreement with the generals sent to clear the area. If Feng Jingping fled, he would use a firework to send a message to them so that they could pursue him outside the city.

However, he knew that he couldn't leave at this moment. Fenggong had just been captured, and there were many things he needed to take care of. Compared to the chase for Feng Jingping, these things were even more important. Sooner or later, Feng Jingping wouldn't be able to escape. He wanted to let Feng Rong settle down as soon as possible to welcome the king into the city.

At this time, the sun had set in the west, and Shang Qiuyuan was sneering, "Fengjing Ping, you wanted to use Ji Tian Ning to threaten me, but before your people could send her to Fenggong, I already broke through Fenggong. Now, let's see where you can escape to! "

Under the orders of Shang Qiuyuan and Yan Ming's military, Fenggong quickly settled down.
