Xi Heng drew his sword and let the opponent fall to the ground.
She had watched this scene hundreds of times, and her mind was not disturbed.
Looking around, he was still wondering whether he should continue killing.
The other generals around, no matter they were the Tianliang rebels or the officers and soldiers of the Great Zhao, just stared at her blankly.
flutter--
Fang Tiande's burly body fell to the ground, and the other Tianliang generals around him stopped fighting with the officers and soldiers and retreated in unison.
It seems that after Fang Tiande's death, the people of Tianliang have lost their will to fight.
Xi Heng turned around and prepared to leave indifferently. He first bent down to take out Fang Tiande's Blood Spirit Stone. As soon as he turned around, he saw General Zhao Wanli of the Great Zhao looking at him in a daze.
"What's wrong?"
It took her a while to understand why the people around her were in a daze, and she yawned and said:
"Fang Tiande is dead, everyone should do what they need to do. The outcome of tonight's battle has been decided, so I will no longer participate."
Having reloaded the game hundreds of times and spent nearly three months in Jinshi City practicing the method of transforming energy, Xi Heng had already been feeling quite lonely and missing his daily life with his senior sister.
Now that he had completed his goal, Xi Heng wanted to go home and rest with his senior sister for a while, and then prepare to go look for immortals, or fight against the Red Sky Goddess on the coast to steal her magic, or seek revenge on the Black Spirit Sword Master, or something like that...
Xi Heng briefly looked around, and then, under the gazes of countless people, he safely returned to Jinshi City, which was already ablaze.
Wherever she passed, both the Tianliang rebels and the Dazhao soldiers would unconsciously make way for her and watch her figure gradually disappear into the distance.
The name Xi Heng mentioned when he was fighting Fang Tiande just now was heard clearly by many sharp-eyed and sharp-eared dark energy warriors...
Anyway, the war is coming to an end.
In the great silence after the chaos, the girl walked towards the city gate.
In the light of the blazing tall column of fire, countless corpses were piled in front of the city gate.
The girl's brocade shoes trampled over the still-burning stars of oil and wood chips, stepped on the mud stained with blood, and walked around the many strange-looking corpses that were pierced by the knife carts used to block the city gates.
She walked along the blood-stained path, and when her figure disappeared from everyone’s sight, a loud voice came from behind—
"Fang Tiande is dead! The surrendered soldiers will not be killed—"
"The princess has killed Fang Tiande. The remaining soldiers of Tianliang must surrender immediately! If you surrender immediately, you will not be killed!"
……
Xi Heng paid no attention to the noise behind him. After entering the city, he just stepped on the burning tiles of the house with his light skills and ran towards the altar of the Dark Heaven Sect under his command, just like in his previous life.
The figure passed through the flames, and a distance of several thousand meters was crossed in just a moment of trance.
Before she returned to the pulpit, she simply ordered the chief priest of the Dark Sky Sect to collect money and food during the firefighting process to be used for disaster relief, and then returned to the main house where she had lived before.
Then, as if everything in the world had nothing to do with her, Xi Heng lay down and fell asleep alone while everyone was busy and chaotic.
Ever since Tianliang started the siege, she had been working so hard for so long between reloading and reincarnation, and had rarely had the chance to truly relax and rest.
Now that her energy has been transformed, her only remaining goal is to rest.
Although I had slept for a while in the loading space just now, I still felt a little sleepy.
As for the noise from the outside world, it could hardly make her feel disturbed.
Xi Heng closed his eyes, turned on his side, and fell asleep in the most relaxing position.
Silent all night.
After a long time, it was dawn.
The girl opened her eyes, turned her head to look out the window, and saw countless green smoke curling around.
Most areas of the entire Jinshi City have been reduced to ashes, and no one knows how many people in the city died last night... The sun still rises as usual, and the warm yellow sunlight falls on the drifting green smoke and the ashes of the ruins.
Xi Heng covered his lips and yawned lightly, rubbed his eyes, sat on the edge of the bed and slowly put on his clothes.
After dressing herself up a little at the dressing table, she called the maid in and asked her to bring some simple meals.
"Lady Saint..." the maid whispered:
"Because of the fire in the city yesterday, many people are displaced. The church needs to provide porridge to help the refugees. Today's meal may be simpler. I hope the Saint Lady will not mind."
"Saving is a good thing, bring it here." Xi Heng now doesn't care about these worldly matters.
"Yes."
The maid stepped back and left, and came back after a while, bringing only a portion of porridge and some coarse grain side dishes.
There is not much meat in the dishes, which is enough to fill the stomach, but it is obviously lacking in nutrition.
Xi Heng didn't have any requirements and just picked up the chopsticks casually.
"Let the priest come here, I have something to say." At the same time, she gave a simple order.
The maid, who looked a little nervous, quickly agreed and quickened her pace to leave.
Soon, the Dark Heaven Sect priest, whose facial features were quite ordinary but whose clothes had changed greatly, arrived here.
The other party seemed to have not slept all night and looked obviously tired.
As soon as he stepped into the threshold, he half-knelt down, clasped his fists and bowed his head, saying:
"Congratulations to the Saint Lady for killing the rebel leader!"
Xi Heng glanced over and said: "You are quite well-informed."
"Now everyone in the city is saying that it was Princess Xiheng of the Great Zhao who killed the enemy. I asked you your name before, so I know it, but I never thought that the saint girl was actually Her Royal Highness Princess of the Great Zhao. Please forgive me, Your Royal Highness!"
After the Dark Sky Sect's priest learned about this, he became even more respectful.
"Princess Emperor is just a title. What you should respect is not this, but the Great Dark Sky." Xi Heng said casually.
"Yes! The Great Dark Mother is merciful and has sent down Her Highness the Saint to save thousands of mortals, end the chaos, and pacify the four directions... Her Highness will surely do great things in the future and bring more blessings from the Great Dark Mother to all the people in the world."
This priest who initially surrendered to Xi Heng was quite excited after learning her true identity.
"Great achievements..." Xi Heng repeated softly.
The high priest seemed to have guessed her purpose.
After all, as a princess of the royal family, she has created power, spread her reputation, and expanded her influence in the army... Even if she herself may not have too many ideas, others will definitely think that she has a strong desire for the throne.
In fact, she really does.
"I will leave the city today. You will lead the Dark Sky Sect to stay in Jinshi and use it as a base to develop the Dark Sky Sect in the surrounding areas. If I achieve great success in the future, you will also benefit from it." Xi Heng made a promise casually.
"Yes!" After hearing this, the high priest immediately bowed his head and saluted:
"Long live Her Majesty the Saint!"
What kind of honorifics are these... She's the Saint and Her Royal Highness, and he even called Queen Jing a thousand years old.
It would be better to say "Long live" - at least it can remind her of the feeling of sitting on the dragon throne.
Xi Heng held his forehead with his hand and continued to talk about business:
"You have done quite well in recent days. At least you have accomplished the goal I set for you... so I will give you a reward."
She took out a larger brocade bag from her waist and threw it away casually.
The other party took it and asked anxiously: "Your Highness, this is...?"
"Blood Spirit Stone." Xi Heng said simply:
"You can use it to cast a few small spells, and you can also imprint spells on yourself or others' bodies for five days."
"Spirit, spirit stone? Magic?" Although he didn't know what these meant, just hearing these words made him more excited.
"Didn't I tell you before? If you do well, you will be rewarded with a magic spell."
After Xi Heng achieved the state of Hua Jin, simple spells were no longer of much significance to her, so she prepared to teach them to her subordinates.
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Xi Heng was not infected by the other party's excitement. He just continued to perform magic and pinched out another blood spirit stone from the air, and demonstrated the finger techniques and spells of using the spirit stone in front of the other party.
Afterwards, seeing the man's bewildered look, she reluctantly asked him to fetch pen and ink, wrote down a spell with a distorted tone, drew a few finger patterns at random, taught him the two simplest techniques, Blood Arrow and Blood Claw, and then told the man to get out with the Blood Spirit Stone.
After a while, she was the only one left in the room.
Xi Heng said to himself casually:
"Let them develop this small force slowly. We can use it when fighting for the throne in the future. If it is useless, it doesn't matter... After all, it is just a blood spirit stone."
If it had happened before this siege, Xi Heng would not have handed over the spirit stones so easily.
But now, after reloading the game hundreds of times, she already has hundreds of spirit stones in her inventory, and she doesn't feel sorry to throw away any of them.
This time when she loaded the game, she had advanced to the level of Hua Jin and directly killed Fang Tiande with a sword without using any spirit stones. The hundreds of spirit stones in her inventory were still overflowing with spiritual energy, which was enough to perform another Blood Sea Ascension.
Xi Heng also thought about whether he should brush Fang Tiande a hundred more times to get more spirit stones.
But I got tired of thinking about it, so I just gave up.
She shook her head slightly, ate the food on the table briefly, picked up her luggage in the room, and walked towards the stable on the pulpit.
This bag was specially packed for her by Senior Sister Hong Miao several months ago. There were many clothes in it, but she hasn't changed into many of them yet.
After Xi Heng came to Jinshi City, he founded the small religion of Dark Sky Sect, and no longer had to take care of daily affairs himself.
The stable was behind the corner, and although the entire city experienced a fire, it did not burn this side.
Among them, there were more than a dozen horses of varying heights and sizes.
The brown BMW that he brought to Jinshi City received a lot of care, and his originally well-proportioned body became noticeably obese.
She settled into the saddle and felt more stable.
Xi Heng pulled the reins and patted the horse's neck, and the brown horse walked obediently across the corridor, stepped across the straightened front dean's road, and left the pulpit.
The girl walked along the long road covered with ashes and smoke, and looked around quietly at the stretches of ashes and ruins.
The fire had burned the entire Jinshi City beyond recognition. With just a glance, one could see several charred corpses.
Thick charcoal-black color covered the surface of the city, with green smoke floating upward, as if the souls of countless dead people in the city were ascending into the sky.
The dead have found peace, but the living can hardly get even a bit of it.
The refugees, who had lost their homes and money and whose clothes were tattered, stared blankly at the wisps of smoke drifting away, with despair in their eyes, as if they were just squatting on the roadside waiting to die.
Most of the other refugees who are able have already left Jinshi City with their families and sought refuge with distant relatives.
There is really no need to stay in this ruined city any longer.
The current Zhao court will not send anyone for relief. How can those corrupt officials and treacherous villains feed the homeless refugees with so much silver and food?
The people who are still left in Jinshi City are basically just waiting to die.
As she walked, Xi Heng felt that the atmosphere in the city became increasingly gloomy. The only sound in the entire city was the sound of horse hooves beneath her. There were living people around her, but they were all motionless like the dead.
It was not until the announcement of the Dark Sky Sect's chief priest that porridge would be distributed came from the distance that the refugees finally made some noise, raised their stiff bodies, and slowly approached like zombies.
Xi Heng walked in the opposite direction, approaching the Jinshi city gate.
The distance to the city gate was indeed not very far, and many officers and soldiers were cleaning the battlefield.
When the officers and soldiers saw her approaching, they bowed and greeted her, calling her "Her Royal Highness".
Xi Heng nodded, took a few steps forward, and saw Zhao Wanli standing in front of the city wall again.
The cold morning wind caused the dark red cape behind his general armor to flutter. This rare Hua Jin general of the Great Zhao clasped his hands and bowed to her, saying:
"Yesterday we defeated the Tianliang rebels, and the princess played an indispensable role."
"The general is full of praise."
Xi Heng replied calmly.
"It's a great contribution." Zhao Wanli calmly repeated these four words:
"The news of Princess Di's actions yesterday has spread throughout the city... Princess Di is such a young martial artist, and she killed the rebel leader Fang Tiande in just a few moves. From now on, her reputation will surely spread throughout China and abroad."
"It is inevitable that this news will reach the ears of the current emperor..." He simply stated the fact.
"Then let her listen."
Xi Heng doesn't care about Chu Xiao's affairs.
In her eyes, Chu Xiao is not the emperor who can pacify the current chaotic world. Sooner or later, she will replace him.
