Chapter 429 Big Shot? Just A Little Brat! The Emperor Has Arrived?
In this moment, the resounding voice of a vast and cold forest echoed through Kyoto. And in the instant when this middle-aged man in black clothes carrying a stone coffin walked the ten-mile long street of Chu and arrived at the gate of the Ji Family Military Mansion, thick dark clouds covered the moon and stars, and a bloody smell permeated the entire Kyoto!
Upon hearing these words, the entire Kyoto fell silent for a moment, followed by an extremely enthusiastic uproar. Countless cultivators looked in the direction of the Ji Family Military Mansion from afar.
"He finally arrived!"
"The Crown Prince of the Legendary Level just defeated the God Phoenix Fortress. He's here to reclaim his honor!"
"That's right! But isn't this too audacious?! He's carrying a coffin, what does it symbolize? Is he planning to put Ji Xiu, the Crown Prince, in this stone coffin?"
"It's not that simple. The Crown Prince rose during the chaotic ancient era. He was the most brilliant star of that era, surpassing all the geniuses and being invincible. His act of carrying a coffin is definitely more than just a show of power against Ji Xiu!"
"Chaos! Chaos!"
"I didn't expect that in the early days of the new era, the Crown Prince would clash with Ji Xiu, the strongest of the younger generation from the previous era!"
"Who would have thought!"
.............
Meanwhile, at the moment when the entire Kyoto was shaken, seven old men dressed in star robes had also arrived not far from the Ji Family Military Mansion. Some recognized them as the seven Star Elders from the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets!
"If I'm not mistaken, are these seven the Celestial Secrets Seven Stars, the Legendary Level of the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets?"
"That's right! They should be the seven Star Elders from the Pavilion of Celestial Secrets' Elder Court!"
"Their appearance signifies that this matter will be watched by the entire Nine Heavens. Tonight, we might witness a pinnacle duel representing the younger generation of this era!"
"Wait! Didn't the Crown Prince come? If so, how can there be a pinnacle duel?"
"What I mean is, is it possible that the person in the stone coffin is the Crown Prince himself?"
"Hiss!!! If that's the case, then this matter is huge!"
...............
"Someone is coming!"
Ning Xiyan suddenly stood up in the courtyard of the Ji Mansion, her dignified and gentle face becoming somewhat serious.
"It's not good!"
Mo Qingxian also stood up. She could sense that the cultivation base of the person outside the Ji Mansion was stronger than hers and Ning Xiyan's. It should be noted that they were already Emperor-level powerhouses, which means the person's cultivation base must be at least at the level of a Saint Lord!
"Let's go!"
"Let's go and see!"
Ning Xiyan softly spoke, and with that, she and Mo Qingxian, along with Little Fatty, Xing'er, and Jia Miaomiao, walked towards the outside of the Ji Mansion.
.............
On the high platform of the Ji Mansion.
Ji Xiu and Mu Bing stood side by side, overlooking the middle-aged man standing in front of the Ji Mansion.
"The Crown Prince's people?"
Ji Xiu raised an eyebrow.
"What do you want to do?"
Mu Bing casually asked.
"What else can we do?"
"Let's see what the Crown Prince wants to do!"
Ji Xiu shook his head and then he and Mu Bing disappeared from the high platform.
...............
Kyoto, Ji Family Military Mansion, in front of the mansion gate.
Ning Xiyan and Mo Qingxian coldly stared at the middle-aged man carrying the stone coffin, while Little Fatty pouted, hands on hips, cheeks puffed up, glaring at the middle-aged man with an air of indignation.
Soon, Feng Huang, Gu Yao, and Chu Li also arrived. Everyone watched the newcomer with great vigilance.
And at that moment, Ji Xiu and Mu Bing walked out of the Ji Mansion.
When the middle-aged man saw Ji Xiu, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Boom!
He raised his hand and placed the stone coffin on the ground, causing the surface to crack like a spiderweb due to the tremendous force.
"Northern Xia Crown Prince, Ji Xiu?"
The middle-aged man coldly spoke.
"Who are you!"
Without waiting for Ji Xiu to speak, Xiaofeiniu directly clenched her small fist and stood in front of Ji Xiu. It must be said that when she was drunk, she was a hundred times braver than usual.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man responded in a cold and indifferent voice, "I am a member of the Phoenix Clan, the Heavenly General of the Phoenix Clan!"
"I am called Huangyao!"
As soon as the words fell, Xiaofeiniu sneered and said disdainfully, "Who do you think you are, pretending to be someone important!"
"So you're just a nobody!"
How audacious!
A cold light flashed in Huangyao's eyes, and two terrifying beams of light shot directly towards Xiaofeiniu.
But at this moment, a tall figure stood in front of Xiaofeiniu, and the light in his eyes silently extinguished upon contact with his body.
"Sir, are you not thinking straight?"
Ji Xiu stood in front of Xiaofeiniu with a smile on his face, looking at the approaching Huangyao.
Upon hearing this, Huangyao's expression changed. He could sense that Ji Xiu's cultivation base was at the Emperor's Saint Lord Second Realm. According to reason, as a peak Saint Lord, he shouldn't feel such pressure. But the fact was that Ji Xiu in front of him gave him a sense of fear that made his soul tremble!
Hmph!
Huangyao suppressed the trembling in his soul and snorted coldly, "Ji Xiu, the Crown Prince!"
"I am here on the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to seek guidance!"
Oh?
Ji Xiu raised an eyebrow playfully and asked with a smile, "Sir, how do you plan to seek guidance?"
Before Huangyao could speak, Ji Xiu's figure suddenly disappeared from where he stood. When he reappeared, he was already in front of Huangyao, with one hand already gripping Huangyao's throat.
"Ji Xiu... you!"
Huangyao looked at Ji Xiu in astonishment. At this moment, he felt an unparalleled and incomprehensible power burning his soul. As a peak Saint Lord, he felt a sense of powerlessness in front of this young and terrifying man, as if he were just a pitiful ant with no room for resistance, completely at the mercy of others!
As soon as the words fell, he heard a sharp wind in his ears.
Smack!
The sound of a crisp slap echoed.
Huangyao was slapped to the ground by Ji Xiu. At this moment, his mind went blank, and he saw stars in front of his eyes. When he regained his senses, he found Ji Xiu's foot stepping on his head.
"What's wrong?"
"Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince planning to seek guidance like this?"
"It seems that not only is your brain not functioning properly."
"Your Highness seems to have a problem with his brain as well!"
Ji Xiu looked down at Huangyao with a cold and ruthless smile on his lips.
Just then, Huangyao tremblingly pointed to the stone coffin on the ground and said, "Ji Xiu, you must not insult His Royal Highness!"
In the instant his words fell, the stone coffin trembled, and then the lid flew open. Countless beams of immortal light burst forth, and a tremendously terrifying aura filled the air. Many people witnessed the strange phenomenon of the Ascension of the Heavenly Phoenix!
"What is this?"
Mu Bing frowned suddenly.
Clang!
In the endless immortal light, everyone saw a figure standing upright, ascending from the coffin. He stood in the sky, carrying the moon, holding a Heavenly Phoenix Blade in his hand, and his unparalleled aura soared to the Ninth Stage of Heaven!
"The Crown Prince?!"
Countless cultivators in the capital looked at the hazy figure behind the immortal light with shock and their eyes trembled in horror.
