C237 The Primordial Covenant
Qin Lia shrugged. "Do you think we don't want to? That's not possible. This. . . "
Qin Lia looked at Lin Yang and hesitated for a moment before saying.
" Forget it. It's not a big secret anyway. With your identity, you will find out sooner or later. Why don't I tell you this now? "
Lin Yang instantly looked like he was listening attentively.
"In this grassland in the northwest, besides our Great Qin Dynasty and the Desolate Barbarian Race, there is also the existence of the Spacetime Holy Land. "
"The strength of the Spacetime Holy Land can completely crush us and the Desolate Barbarian Race. However, we are not to be trifled with. "
Qin Lia's words carried some mixed emotions.
"Back then, the nine founding fathers of the Nine Great Empires were all at the peak of the Martial Saint realm. After accepting the destiny of the dynasty, the nine of them joined forces and could even suppress a Martial Emperor. At that time, the Nine Great Saints and the Six Great Sacred Grounds were at their peak. The Eight Great Ancient Sects. There were also the five ancient clans who signed the ancient covenant. Experts of the Martial Saint realm and above were not allowed to enter the world! "
"It's also because of this that the Nine Great Empires are able to survive until today. On this grassland, let's not talk about the Spacetime Holy Land. Just the Desolate Barbarian Clan alone, there are still many old antiques that are still alive. If they really went all out, they were afraid that the Spacetime Holy Land would pick a peach. All along, neither side dared to use their full strength. Experts at the Martial King Stage and above wouldn't suffer a lot of casualties. "
Lin Yang finally understood the situation and nodded his head.
He knew a lot about the ancient pact, and its origin was also very absurd. It was nothing more than the eldest daughter of an ancient Martial Emperor who had taken a fancy to the Never-Ending Saint of the Central Divine Region.
In the end, the lady was unwilling to do so. The Martial Emperor was immediately enraged and forced her to do so. Then, in a fit of anger, the Never-Ending Saint went up against the Martial Emperor with the other eight Saints.
That battle could be considered to be world-shaking. The ten of them fought for three days and three nights before the Martial Monarch was defeated.
Later on, under the mediation of numerous Sacred Grounds, ancient sects, and hidden clans, a group of people finally signed the ancient covenant.
"Say, Old Mu, what are you thinking?"
Lin Yang's thoughts were interrupted by Qin Lia, then he smiled and said, "It's nothing. I'm just sighing with emotion. The founding emperor of Great Qin Dynasty is actually so terrifying!"
Qin Lia also nodded his head. "Of course. Back then, Great Qin's Imperial Emperor was known as a Saint whose combat strength was on par with a Martial Emperor. How could he not be terrifying?"
The two of them sighed.
The army moved incredibly quickly, and it just so happened that the Holy Stone Tribe was not too far away. In less than an hour, they had arrived at a bustling market.
At the entrance of this market, there was a huge stone tablet erected. Around the stone tablet, there were a few burly men holding steel knives guarding it.
These big men were all wearing half-body armor. They had thick fur, full beard, and were over two meters tall. Their bell-sized eyes were filled with a fierce light.
Lin Yang frowned and glanced at them. These were the Desolate Barbarian Tribe. They were like the uncivilized barbarians.
Qin Lia did not think much about it and asked directly, "The stone at their door is the totem stone. Take a look and see if it is the Sacred Heavenly Stone you were talking about. "
Lin Yang frowned and looked at it carefully. Then, a trace of surprise appeared in his eyes. "That's right. It's that thing. It's such a big piece. This trip wasn't in vain. "
Qin Lia nodded. Qin Hu, who was at the back, waved the flag in his hand. The army immediately split up and surrounded the entire Holy Stone Tribe. Qin Lia, Qin Hu, and Lin Yang walked in with a pair of personal guards.
The moment the army surrounded the tribe, a few powerful auras rippled out from the tribe. When Lin Yang and the others walked into the market, three tall figures in long robes also walked out.
As soon as they saw Qin Lia, the old man in the middle, who was holding a crutch, smiled.
"Oh, what wind blew Marshal Qin over?"
Qin Lia's expression did not change. He waved his hand and said, "High Priest, don't talk so much nonsense. Someone informed our Xuanwu City that your Holy Stone Tribe dared to secretly store military supplies. I specially brought people over to check!"
A trace of astonishment flashed across the old man's face. In the depths of his eyes, a trace of fear was concealed very well.
However, this trace of fear was perfectly captured by Lin Yang and Qin Lia, who had just broken through to the next realm.1
Qin Lia was surprised in his heart. My god! I'm just going to put a random crime on this old man, but I don't dare to say that I'm right!
Lin Yang rolled his eyes. "Marshal Qin, Holy Stone Tribe has always been on good terms with Xuanwu City. They definitely won't do such a thing. In my opinion, why don't we give the old priest some face and just check him? "
The high priest also climbed up the pole and hurriedly walked forward. He grabbed Qin Lia's hand and handed him a Space Ring without batting an eyelid.
"This lord is right, Marshal Qin. It's not that I don't want to investigate, but this is still a market. After all, this is a place where merchants come and go. If we really investigate closely, this market will lose its credibility in the future!"
Qin Lia checked the things inside the Space Ring, then the corners of his mouth curled into an inexplicable smile.
"Of course. There must be a traitor who wants to sow discord between our two forces. How could I be deceived?"
"How about this, call all your clansmen and all the business people over here over here. I'll ask a few questions. If there are no abnormalities, I'll withdraw. "
The old priest nodded repeatedly and passed down the news.
He heard that Marshal Qin Lia came over personally to interrogate and investigate. Everyone in the market hurriedly rushed out. In less than a moment, the center of the market was already surrounded by people. Even the three people guarding the totem at the door were called over.
Looking at this group of people, Qin Lia smiled and faced them. Qin Hu, who was standing at the side, gave him a look.
"The general said that he would not wrongly accuse a good person and would not let a bad person go. I will conduct a body search on you. If there are no contraband items, then you can leave. "
Upon hearing this, a trace of relief flashed across the High Priest's eyes. Then, he forced a smile onto his face.
A strange look flashed across Qin Hu's eyes. He led his personal guards to the side of that group of people. After that, a glaring cold light suddenly flashed, and a strong spirit energy wave stirred up fierce gales in the middle of the market.
Dust filled the sky. Qin Lia coldly snorted, and a powerful spiritual energy came out of his body, suppressing all the dust.
The originally clean ground was now covered with blood. Large skulls were rolling on the ground. These skulls had their eyes wide open, and their eyes were filled with doubt and shock.
While everyone was shocked, Qin Lia and the others attacked again. In an instant, there were only two or three big cats left in the bustling market.
The old priest collapsed to the ground, looking at the corpses of the dead clansmen around him. His eyes were filled with blood red.
"Qin Lia, what do you mean by this? Just investigate. Why did you kill my people?"
