My Wife is A Sword God

The moment the sparks lit up on the rainy night in Imperial City, the Prison Department, the Demon Slaying Department, and the soldiers naturally all saw it.

It was a warning sign that something big had happened in the city.

A figure dressed in red with a white face was scurrying across the rafters.

The Demon Slaying Department rushed towards where sparks had appeared, shattering the rain curtain in the city.

Deng Mo looked in the direction of downtown, his forehead furrowed in thought.

As Mister Qian, one of the Thirty-Six Stars, approached, he said in a deep voice, “Lord Deng, there’s news that Young Master Qin was bewitched by the Tushan Fox Clan and killed the current Crown Prince in the Fox Whispering Pavilion.” 

“He was then discovered by the guards of the Prison Department, so they lit up the sparks as a signal.”

“How could that be?” Deng Mo muttered absent-mindedly.

At that moment, Mister Qian’s expression suddenly became ferocious, and his murderous intent was fully revealed. He gathered his Qi with his right hand and stabbed Deng Mo hard in the back of his heart.

But how could Deng Mo, the former Eastern Region Commander who had seen countless battles, be attacked by such a petty trick?

Yin Qi surged and shadows rose under his feet in an instant; it was the defensive move, Shadow Flow Wall, of the Hundred Ghost Dao Lineage.

But at that moment, a figure appeared behind Mister Qian in the blink of an eye, and then struck him down with lightning speed, ripping off his head!

The newcomer was from the prison department!

“You…” Deng Mo hesitated.

“The Prison Bureau patrols found Mister Qian’s body in the forest outside of Imperial City. Out of caution, I rushed here as soon as I received the news, and as a result, I saw the scene just now. This Mister Qian must be a fake,” the newcomer said calmly as he tore off the skin from Mister Qian’s face, revealing an unfamiliar face.

“The enemy’s infiltration into the capital is much deeper than we expected, Lord Deng, you better be careful,” the newcomer continued.

Deng Mo turned and looked at the headless corpse on the ground, his voice heavy, “Qian Xing has followed me for many years, I never expected him to die at the hands of small fries.”

There was a tone of regret and helplessness in his voice.

“We have recovered the spatial jade pendant from Lord Qian’s body.” Bing Mian reached into his chest and handed the jade pendant to Deng Mo.

However, the moment the jade pendant fell into Deng Mo’s hand, it changed its appearance.

Black Qi surged out, and a spider manifested, its entire body shimmering with a dark green glow, and then ruthlessly bit Deng Mo’s palm.

The excruciating pain lasted only a moment as the Yin Qi within Deng Mo surged and directly crushed the spider.

However, he clearly felt that the Yin Qi in his body and the environment around him could no longer be manipulated as freely.

The instinct to fight caused Deng Mo’s figure to immediately retreat, then he manipulated the Yin Qi and a shadowy black coffin crashed down on Bing Mian’s head.

Seeing this, Bing Mian simply waved his right hand and the black coffin vanished into thin air.

“To be bitten by the impure Yin Spider and still be able to release the black coffin, Lord Deng’s strength truly deserves my admiration. However, if you try to summon the Yin Spirits again, I’m afraid you’ll be powerless, right?” Bing Mian spoke lightly as he slowly approached.

“You have been hiding quite deep. To actually infiltrate the prison department, but do you think that’s enough to kill me?” Deng Mo said coldly.

“Meaningless words are unnecessary. Most of the people in the Demon Slaying Department have already gone to Fox’s Whispering Pavilion, so no one will notice anything unusual here.” 

“Of course, I should still pay my respects to Lord Deng.” Bing Mian lifted his white mask while swallowing a golden pill, and his aura instantly skyrocketed.

A person’s name, the shadow of a tree.

Even though the other party was unable to freely manipulate Yin Qi due to the ambush, for the sake of safety, he still chose to take the divine pill, just to be foolproof!

Deng Mo’s eyes widened and he exclaimed in shock, “He actually broke through to the Second Realm in an instant. What exactly is that pill?”

Before his words could fully fade away, Bing Mian’s speed was as fast as thunder. In front of him, a hand had already reached into his body and grasped his beating heart!

He exerted force with his right hand and blood spurted out.

Deng Mo’s eyes gradually lost focus, and he fell into the pool of blood.

Seeing this, Bing Mian spoke into the void, “Deng Mo is dead. The plan can now proceed.”

Rainwater washed away the traces of blood, turning the ground scarlet.

Bing Mian turned and walked away, disappearing into the curtain of rain.

…

Soon after, news of the Crown Prince’s death swept through the entire Imperial City like a raging flood.

What astonished countless people even more was that the one who killed the Crown Prince was their revered Master Qin!

Soldiers, prison officials, and members of the Demon Slaying Department could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.

The Fox Whispering Pavilion had long since been sealed off, and Tushan’s Fox Women had all been handcuffed and escorted to the dungeon.

The figures of Su Tianyue and Qin Feng were naturally among them.

Upon hearing the news, Emperor Ming was furious and issued one imperial edict after another.

In front of the Qin residence, the strongest forces of the Prison Department, equal to or greater than a Domain Commander, appeared.

They were dressed in black with red masks covering their faces.

Surrounded by an army of prison guards, the Qin Mansion was completely sealed off.

Killing the Crown Prince was tantamount to treason, which naturally implicated the entire Qin Mansion. The strength of Liu Jianli and Cang Feilan was well known, hence the deployment of such forces!

The details of the capture remained unknown, but the seals on the gates of the Qin Mansion were enough to strike fear into anyone’s heart.

In the misty spring rain, a middle-aged man dressed as a wealthy merchant witnessed these scenes, and a gleeful and manic smile appeared on his face.

He turned into the deserted alleyway with an oil-paper umbrella, and when he came out again, he had transformed into Chen Nian.

Inside the palace, the Third Prince struggled to put on an air of sadness, but his lips betrayed an unbridled grin.

Inside the National Academy, those who had once been defeated by Qin Feng toasted and laughed, their mouths filled with words of ‘deserved’.

The Duke Liu’s residence was in chaos, the socialite mother-in-law collapsed on the spot.

The people and soldiers who had won Qin Feng’s favour gathered to write a petition.

They firmly believed that none of this was Master Qin’s intention, but rather that they had fallen prey to the seduction of those Fox demons.

……

On the far eastern frontier, within the Asura Territory.

A silver-haired man dressed in a yellow robe opened his eyes, his right hand spreading out to reveal crimson markings on a talisman.

A smile played at the corner of the man’s lips as he turned and stepped into the colossal skull of a giant.

On the icy throne of the Asura Clan, Heaven Killing Asura listened to the man’s words, a fierce grin adorning his face.

The four great warlords under his command exuded a murderous aura.

The Asura clan has been silent for a long time, and it was time for their terrifying reputation to return to the world.

……

Meanwhile, at the epicentre of the storm, Qin Feng and his companions were gathered in the Heavenly Tower of the Grand Literature Academy.

Through a treasure, they were able to witness the myriad expressions of life in the Imperial City.

Su Tianyue looked at Qin Feng and joked, “I never expected you to have such a high position in the hearts of the people. So many are begging for you.”

Her tone then changed to annoyance. “Yes, you’ve all been influenced by our Fox Clan. Everything is our fault.”

Seeing this, the prince tried to comfort her, then expressed his concern: “All that Brother Qin and I did in the Fox Whispering Pavilion was to lure out enemies within the Imperial City.” 

“But why fake Lord Deng’s death? If our suspicions are correct, the enemies must have already informed the Asura Clan. They will come out of the eastern domain. What should we do then?”

Everyone looked at the Heavenly Tower National Teacher leaning against the railing, but he remained silent.

Qin Feng seemed to have guessed something and said, “Perhaps this is exactly what the Teacher intends.”

“What do you mean, Brother Qin?” 

Qin Feng explained, “Right now, we are relying on the agreement between Lord Deng and the Asura Clan to maintain this fragile peace. But Lord Deng cannot live forever.”

This point was naturally understood by everyone present.

The Divine Martial Warrior cultivates his physical body, giving him a lifespan far beyond that of ordinary people, while the Hundred Spirit Dao Lineage and the Literature Saint Dao Lineage only slightly exceed that of ordinary people.

The current crisis will inevitably arise one day, it’s only a matter of time…

After pausing for a moment, Qin Feng spoke again: “In that case, why don’t we take advantage of Lord Deng’s presence in this world and, according to our original agreement, find a way to resolve everything once and for all?”

It seemed as if everyone was suddenly awakened, their eyes shining as they instantly understood something.
