King of Ten Thousand Years

Inside the Prince’s Mansion.

"Who is so audacious as to trespass in my mansion?"

Prince Zheng’s eyes blazed with majestic fury.

In the Chilong Dynasty, someone actually dared to barge into his mansion. It was outrageously bold. ’Could it be an old enemy?’

With two Sect Elders present, Prince Zheng was fearless. He shouted coldly, "No matter who you are, I’ll have you die without a burial place!"

「The next instant.」

WHOOSH!

A handsome figure in white descended from the sky.

"Is that so? As it happens, I want to kill you too!"

Luo Tian leaped down from his flying mount, landing no more than three meters from Prince Zheng. Their eyes met!

When Prince Zheng saw the newcomer clearly, the anger and arrogance on his face vanished instantly. His eyes bulged, revealing his utter shock!

"Luo... Tian?"

Prince Zheng was completely stunned, frozen in place as if petrified.

’Isn’t Luo Tian dead? Am I seeing a ghost?’

The only explanation was...

Luo Tian had made it out of the unknown Secret Realm alive, and he hadn’t returned to the Yunxiao Sect yet. That was why even Elder Zheng and Elder Zhong didn’t know.

Luo Tian smelled the aroma of wine and meat wafting from the main hall, accompanied by the sound of music. A banquet was clearly underway. He strode toward the hall.

"...Did Prince Zheng know I was coming and prepare this banquet especially for me?"

A faint smile touched the corner of Luo Tian’s mouth.

Panic flooded Prince Zheng’s heart!

’Luo Tian isn’t dead!’

’He’s here for revenge!’

In that moment, Prince Zheng broke out in a cold sweat. His mind raced as he made a decision!

"You cur! How dare you trespass in my mansion! Surrender and die!"

Prince Zheng suddenly roared as the True Essence in his body churned, releasing the aura of the Earth Element Realm.

He had decided to pretend he didn’t know anything and kill Luo Tian right here and now. Once the two Yunxiao Sect Elders saw Luo Tian, he would lose his chance!

Golden Dragon Claw!

Prince Zheng’s arm swelled, its surface coated in golden scales, resembling the golden claw of a Flood Dragon. He swiped, leaving a domineering and sharp trail of golden light.

SWISH!

Luo Tian’s figure was like a gust of wind, drifting forward and into the main hall.

Prince Zheng’s claw missed, leaving five gouges in the steps of the hall and tearing five gashes through the main gate.

"So fast!"

Prince Zheng wasn’t familiar with the combat power of a Celestial Pride Level genius, nor did he understand the sophistication of Luo Tian’s Body Technique, so his Attack missed.

「Inside the main hall.」

Luo Tian’s appearance stunned the two Yunxiao Sect Elders, who were in the middle of drinking.

"Luo Tian?"

Elder Zheng and Elder Zhong revealed their surprise.

’Isn’t Luo Tian dead?’

The existence of that incredibly dangerous, unknown Secret Realm had already been revealed. The Grand Elder and the others had waited a full ten days for Luo Tian at the Celestial Ring Alliance, but he never appeared.

Although Luo Tian’s fate hadn’t been officially announced, the upper echelons of the Yunxiao Sect almost all believed that he had perished in the Secret Realm!

"Luo Tian, you’re not dead?"

Elder Zhong asked in astonishment.

"What exactly did you encounter in the Secret Realm? Why have you only returned now?"

Elder Zheng’s gaze sharpened as he inquired.

According to the information they had, Luo Tian had entered a Heritage Treasure Land. Since he wasn’t dead, he must have obtained great treasures, or perhaps even inherited the legacy of some powerful expert!

"I ran into some trouble, so I’m a little late."

Luo Tian answered dismissively.

There were many Elders in the Yunxiao Sect, and he didn’t know these two at all.

Besides, since these two were guests at Prince Zheng’s Mansion, Luo Tian naturally felt no need to be polite.

"It’s good that you’re back!"

Both Elders beamed.

Luo Tian was, after all, the champion of this year’s Celestial Pride Conference, the King of the Celestial Pride, who had won immense glory for the entire Yunxiao Sect!

As Yunxiao Sect Elders, they also felt their own prestige had been enhanced.

"Luo Tian, many of the Sect’s higher-ups are still worried about you. Come back with us quickly!"

Elder Zheng immediately stood up and flew to Luo Tian’s side.

Elder Zhong understood implicitly and flew over as well.

But Luo Tian stood his ground, not moving an inch. "I came here for a reason. I will return to the Sect after I’ve handled it. If you two Elders are in a hurry, you may go back first."

"Whatever it is, it can wait," Elder Zheng said forcefully.

Luo Tian ignored Elder Zheng. His expression cold, he stated, word by word, "I want to kill Zheng Lin!"

Zheng Lin was Prince Zheng!

Elder Zheng’s brows furrowed slightly.

He was also a member of the Chilong Dynasty’s Royal Family and was, in a sense, a relative of Zheng Lin.

He had pretended to be in a hurry to report the good news, but his real intention was to save Prince Zheng’s life!

He never expected Luo Tian to show him no face at all, acting so coldly and insisting on killing Prince Zheng!

"Nephew Luo, what grudge do you have against Prince Zheng? Why must you kill him?"

Elder Zhong asked, feigning ignorance.

He was also from the Chilong Dynasty and was currently a guest in Prince Zheng’s Mansion, so he was naturally unwilling to stand by and watch the Prince be killed.

"He tried to have me killed time and time again. Naturally, I must repay him in kind!"

Luo Tian said curtly.

The two Elders looked a little awkward. They hadn’t expected Prince Zheng to have gone so far as to repeatedly make lethal attempts on Luo Tian’s life!

If this were confirmed, even if Luo Tian didn’t seek revenge, the Yunxiao Sect would not let Prince Zheng off the hook.

"Luo Tian, it was all a misunderstanding! I hope you won’t hold my past mistakes against me!"

Prince Zheng walked into the hall, admitting his fault with a smile.

Although he had missed the chance to kill Luo Tian, with the two Elders speaking on his behalf, there was still a chance to turn things around.

"Luo Tian, Prince Zheng has already admitted his mistake to you. As the King of the Celestial Pride, you should be magnanimous and forgive him!"

Elder Zhong advised earnestly.

"A misunderstanding? Admitting his mistake? Forgive him?"

Luo Tian chuckled, then turned to look at the shocking gashes on the main gate. "Then how do you explain this?"

The two Elders’ expressions immediately stiffened.

Prince Zheng was also extremely embarrassed. He forced an explanation, "Just now, I heard someone was trespassing in the Prince’s Mansion and thought it was an enemy. I attacked rashly before I got a clear look. I am truly sorry."

As an Earth Element Realm Martial Artist, his five senses were astonishing. He could perceive everything clearly within a thousand-meter radius.

For Prince Zheng to claim he couldn’t see the person clearly was such a clumsy lie that no Earth Element Realm cultivator would ever believe it.

"Luo Tian, I was in the wrong before. As long as you can forgive me, I will surely present you with a generous gift!"

Prince Zheng said again.

Luo Tian had already come to kill him at his own doorstep.

If he gathered the forces within the Prince’s Mansion, he wouldn’t fear Luo Tian at all.

But Luo Tian was a Core Disciple of the Yunxiao Sect and the King of the Celestial Pride of the Dongchen Continent. He didn’t dare to lay a hand on Luo Tian unless there were no witnesses.

"I only want one thing!"

Luo Tian’s expression was calm, a mocking smile playing on his lips.

"What do you want?"

A hint of joy appeared on Prince Zheng’s face. He saw a glimmer of hope.

At this point, he truly didn’t want revenge. He just needed Luo Tian to not seek revenge against him.

"Your... dog head."

Luo Tian stared at Prince Zheng’s head.

Prince Zheng’s expression changed instantly. Rage flared in his heart, but he forcibly suppressed it.

"Esteemed Elders, please help me persuade Luo Tian! I will definitely reward you handsomely!" Prince Zheng sent to the two Elders via mental transmission.

Because of these two Elders, he didn’t dare assemble the forces of his Prince’s Mansion to attack Luo Tian.

But these two Elders, who hailed from the Chilong Dynasty, could also lend him a helping hand. ’Elder Zheng in particular holds a high position in the Sect and his words carry great weight. He’ll surely succeed!’

However, Prince Zheng had underestimated the importance of the King of the Celestial Pride.

Elder Zheng and Elder Zhong exchanged a look, seeing the predicament in each other’s eyes.

They were unwilling to oppose Luo Tian.

But they were from the Chilong Dynasty, had a friendship with Prince Zheng, and had just accepted his gifts.

Watching a Prince from their own kingdom die before their eyes was not a pleasant experience either.

"Luo Tian, perhaps there truly is a misunderstanding. Prince Zheng has sincerely admitted his mistake and is willing to offer a generous gift. Why don’t you let him off the hook this once?"

Elder Zhong persuaded with a smile.

"Luo Tian, for my sake, how about we just let this matter go?"

Elder Zheng’s expression darkened slightly, exuding a hint of authority. He intended to use his status as an Elder to pressure Luo Tian.

Prince Zheng’s face lit up with joy. With two Yunxiao Sect Elders speaking for him, Luo Tian would surely compromise.

Luo Tian looked at Elder Zheng and asked coldly, "And why should I give you face?"

As soon as he spoke, the hall fell silent!

Elder Zheng was a High Tier Earth Element Realm expert and held a very high position among the Yunxiao Sect Elders.

Luo Tian was still only at the Spirit Sea Realm, yet he dared to offend a High Tier Earth Element Realm expert. He was outrageously bold!

Prince Zheng was shocked, but also delighted!

’Luo Tian has angered Elder Zheng. He’ll definitely face the consequences!’

But unexpectedly...

Elder Zheng didn’t erupt in anger. Instead, he suppressed his rage and said with a grim expression, "Luo Tian, what do you mean by that? Prince Zheng’s Mansion is full of experts, and the Prince’s own Cultivation is profound! If Elder Zhong and I were not here, you wouldn’t be able to kill Prince Zheng at all. You’d be killed instead!"

In fact, if it had been any other Sect Disciple, Elder Zheng would have already attacked directly.

But when it came to Luo Tian, the King of the Celestial Pride, he was hesitant and didn’t dare to make a move.

"Oh? In that case, please, you two Elders, leave and pretend you never saw this!"

Luo Tian said with a faint smile.

This sentence left Elder Zheng and Elder Zhong speechless.

Things having come to this, it was clear they couldn’t change Luo Tian’s mind, and there was no reason for them to stay and invite trouble.

"Elder Zhong, let’s go!"

Elder Zheng’s expression was chilly as he and Elder Zhong rose to leave.

But Luo Tian could sense that the two Elders hadn’t actually left; they were observing from the shadows.

"Damn it!"

Prince Zheng’s face was grim.

The two Yunxiao Sect Elders actually couldn’t help him!

But at the same time, a killing intent surged within him!

’Luo Tian has had a falling out with the two Elders. If I kill him and then bribe them, I wonder if I can get through this crisis!’

"Zheng Lin, no one can save you today!"

Luo Tian turned to face Zheng Lin, emitting a faint killing intent.

"Luo Tian, you forced my hand!"

Prince Zheng’s expression turned sinister.

Regardless of whether the two Elders accepted his bribe, he would absolutely not surrender without a fight to save his own skin!

He had to kill Luo Tian!

’Worst case, I’ll just flee this place. The world is a vast place; I’m sure there’s somewhere I can go!’

"Seal the Prince’s Mansion! Capture the intruder!"

Prince Zheng’s furious roar echoed throughout the entire Prince’s Mansion!

From all corners of the mansion, powerful auras erupted and rushed toward their location!

In an instant, Luo Tian was surrounded by more than thirty High Tier Spirit Sea Realm experts.

In addition, there were four Earth Element Realm experts. Including Prince Zheng, that made a total of five Earth Element Realm masters!

With such a lineup, Prince Zheng’s own forces could have annihilated the Azure Cloud Kingdom. No wonder the Azure Cloud Monarch had been so terrified back then!
