As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life Chapter 1927 - 495: Witnessing Emperor Xi Xi’s Growth Over the Years, Today She Fights Her Way Out of the Blood-Soaked Golden Light Prefecture...
Previously on As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life...
The Qian Yuan Divine Sect could very well have been reduced to ruins by now.
Xi Xi was on the verge of becoming a destitute beggar, a fact that fueled her intense inner rage.
And this Second Prince had the audacity to approach her, proclaiming the Golden Light Prefecture as the Great Vista Golden Light Prefecture!
The more Xi Xi contemplated it, the more incensed she became!
"Pah! Shameless cur!"
Xi Xi spat in the Second Prince's direction, her words a string of childish curses.
Standing atop the carriage shaft, the Second Prince's brows knitted slightly.
Then, a subtle sneer began to form on his lips. "The Golden Light Prefecture shares a border with my Mysterious Temple; its significance has long surpassed that of a mere Mansion City, far exceeding ordinary status. As for its current state, the Qian Yuan Divine Sect is no longer capable of maintaining control."
"All the major powers have established their presence in Golden Light Prefecture—and you still intend to cling to it? Do you plan on forcibly expelling every major faction? Does the Qian Yuan Divine Sect… possess such capability?"
The Second Prince declared with an air of indifference.
"The Patriarch of the Liu Family serves as my trusted adviser. You took the life of an adviser under my command; this offense cannot be easily overlooked... At your tender age, do not presume that merely inheriting the title of Divine Sect Master grants you the right to act with impunity!"
"I shall first apprehend you and administer a lesson, after which Lv Taibai will escort you back!"
Having concluded his speech, the Second Prince turned his gaze towards the elder beside him.
"Senior Dragon God, I beseech your aid."
"Discipline this unruly brat!"
The Second Prince commanded.
This East Sea Dragon God was a being comparable to those in the Divine Tribulation Realm; even the Second Prince maintained the utmost deference in the presence of such an existence.
The Four Seas Dragon Clan's act of transporting Ancestor Dragon Island into the Nine Dragons River within Great Jing had been sanctioned by the Emperor of Dajing. Without imperial consent, overcoming the suppression exerted by the mountain and river fate to relocate Ancestor Dragon Island would have been an exceptionally arduous undertaking.
Furthermore, the Second Prince's imperial concubine mother maintained connections within the Four Seas Dragon Clan. While their ties may not have been exceptionally close, invoking this relationship at this critical juncture had become the Second Prince's most valuable asset in his quest for the throne!
"Very well. So young, yet harboring such potent killing intent—indeed, her family elders should ensure she receives proper tutelage. Lv Taibai's direct disciple is truly lacking in decorum."
The old man’s voice was cool, and with a sudden flick of his sleeve, the black robe he wore billowed outwards!
Instantly, a formidable wave of Heaven and Earth Soul surged forth, accompanied by boundless Dragon Power that enveloped the entire small courtyard!
Even the very fabric of the void seemed to solidify. Countless streams of Divinity converged in the air, coalescing into a colossal Dragon Claw, spanning three zhang in length, which tore through the sky with intent to seize!
Feng Zhiqi's expression underwent a drastic change. He lunged forward, unleashing the formidable aura of a Four-Open Martial Saint, striving to shield Xi Xi from the impending strike.
Boom——!!!
A symphony of cracking and popping echoed from his bones.
Feng Zhiqi's face turned crimson, his blood seeming to freeze under a chilling deathly grip. This was the pressure of the Divine Tribulation Realm; even a peak expert of the highest caliber would struggle to withstand it.
Feng Zhiqi had not yet ascended to the pinnacle of his realm and felt an overwhelming, suffocating oppression!
Beside Xi Xi, Zhao Fangzhou, Tang Xiejia, Nan Lihuo, and the others witnessed this display with deep dismay.
This was the reality of the Golden Light Prefecture today...
Any top-tier faction daring to make an appearance in Golden Light Prefecture was guaranteed to have a Divine Tribulation Realm cultivator overseeing their interests!
...
...
Concurrently.
Within the most opulent establishment in Golden Light Prefecture, the Third Prince Lv Litong was seated in the main hall, a magnificent feast spread before him, laden with exquisite delicacies.
The Third Prince poured himself a cup of refined wine and took a delicate sip. Standing silently behind him was Han Sixi, the Purple-clothed Monk from Diao Temple.
Figures clad in monk robes were seated around the table. A tranquil Buddha Light emanated from these monks, casting an unnerving chill upon the Third Prince.
The Third Prince found this Buddha Light unsettling but, at this moment, recognizing the strategic value, he felt compelled to appease these monks.
Truthfully, Lv Litong himself had not anticipated that these monks, distinguished by the cicada patterns tattooed within their eyes, would seek him out and propose a collaborative alliance.
Seizing such a rare and unparalleled opportunity, Lv Litong was determined not to let it slip away, clinging to it with the desperation of a drowning man grasping for a lifeline!
After finishing his cup of wine, the Third Prince Lv Litong let out a soft chuckle.
"The Second Brother has secured an alliance with the Four Seas Dragon Clan. It appears he's headed for a confrontation with that Li Nuanxi now." "That young girl, a Martial Saint at only eight years old—she's truly a terrifying prodigy. Now that she's taken the position of Qian Yuan Divine Sect Master, her arrogance knows no bounds, as she presumes the Qian Yuan Divine Sect can simply claim Golden Light Prefecture as its own territory?" "My esteemed colleagues, let us simply sit back and observe the unfolding spectacle." The Third Prince, Lv Litong, was naturally amused by the prospect of the Second Prince and Li Nuanxi clashing. He was certainly aware of the news regarding the complete rift between Great Vista and Qian Yuan. Of course he was. "That little girl actually declared her intent to expel every single faction within Golden Light Prefecture, one by one! Hahahaha... she's truly a newborn calf with no fear of tigers!" The Third Prince Lv Litong found this statement to be incredibly humorous, as if he had just heard the funniest jest in the world. Even if Lv Taibai and Lv Qiankun, those two formidable Divine Tribulation Cultivators, were to arrive personally, they likely couldn't achieve such a feat, could they? "A magnificent performance, accompanied by fine wine and exquisite food while witnessing a grand drama—this is the essence of true joy!" The Third Prince Lv Litong erupted in hearty laughter. However, the cultivators at the banquet, identifiable by the cicada patterns embroidered on their eyes, did not join in his mirth. For a brief moment, an awkward silence descended upon the table. The Third Prince Lv Litong's eyes narrowed ever so slightly, yet he felt no discomfort whatsoever, continuing his silent amusement. As long as the Second Prince and Li Nuanxi were locked in conflict, regardless of who ended up being humiliated... He would revel in their misfortune! Wasn't that a cause for great laughter? He turned his head to address Han Sixi, who stood behind him. "Han Diao Temple, do you find this situation amusing?" Han Diao Temple lowered his gaze. Upon hearing the question, he responded in a soft tone. "Indeed, Your Highness. It is quite amusing." ... ... It wasn't solely the Third Prince within the restaurant who was observing the unfolding events. At this precise moment, from the instant Xi Xi and the Second Prince made contact, all parties were keenly paying attention. Within the confines of Golden Light Prefecture City, an array of immensely powerful wills surged skyward, sweeping across the surroundings with incredible force. The very air seemed to solidify as these formidable senses extended outwards, all directed toward that focal point.
