A handsome young man in an ordinary robe with loose hair sat cross-legged on a mat in the cold palace.
He was the ninth prince of the Xi Liang Dynasty, Ji Wanjie. He was banished to the cold palace.
A loser who had been schemed against in the struggle for the throne.
However, Ji Wanjie’s situation worsened after the Xi Liang Dynasty’s 3000 Physique Rankings appeared.
He had been exposed to possess the Demonic Blood Body.
This was a demonic physique, a body that threatened all life in the world.
At this stage, the ministers had always jointly submitted the petition to request the Xi Liang Emperor Ji Tianchang to execute him.
It was just that Ji Tianchang still had a trace of compassion, so he had been hesitating.
However, one may get off today, but not tomorrow.
Two days ago, he was possessed by an expert at the Profound Void Martial Stage.
After the Blood Spirit Monarch arrived in the Xi Liang Dynasty, he was delighted to find Ji Wanjie’s Demonic Blood Body.
Although this physique was not as tempting as Li Yu’s powerful human body, it was the second-best choice.
The Demonic Blood Body did not have much of an inhibition effect on his blood spirit, and it could barely qualify as a relatively powerful physique. In addition, the owner of this physique, Ji Wanjie, was an abandoned child with no backing and not considered powerful.
Therefore, this unlucky fellow became the Blood Spirit Monarch’s cauldron, and he died after his body was seized.
At the moment, the Blood Spirit Monarch was still fusing with this body. After the possession, he needed seven days to completely fuse the blood spirit with his body.
This was something that could not be rushed. Otherwise, if the fusion was not satisfactory, it might backfire.
His strength would be greatly reduced during the fusion. In addition, Ji Wanjie’s cultivation realm was low.
Therefore, the current Blood Spirit Monarch’s strength could barely match the Nascent Soul realm.
However, as long as seven days passed and the blood spirit and body fused perfectly, his cultivation could recover to the peak of the Soul Formation Stage.
Once that happened, he would look to use the Blood Shadow Demon Art to devour dozens of cultivators’ cultivation to step into the Profound Void Martial Stage again. Everything was going according to his new perfect plan. Right at this moment, a voice sounded from outside the Cold Palace. “Li Yu, surrender now, and you shall avoid physical pain!”
Li Yu!
The Blood Spirit Monarch opened his eyes almost reflexively.
He looked in the direction of the voice in horror. “Li Yu? Why is he here? Is there someone called Li Yu in the Xi Liang Dynasty?” The Blood Spirit Monarch panicked.
Consequently, he quietly moved to the top of the wall and looked toward the source of the voice.
In the Five Elements Spirit Array, Li Yu looked at Perfected Qingfeng expressionlessly and could not be bothered to talk to him.
He simply drew his sword, swung it, and sheathed it. He did all three movements in one go at such a speed that it was as if he had never drawn his sword and was only standing on the spot.
The Five Elements Spirit Array light screen suddenly stopped moving. Then, with a blast, it dissipated.
The vast energy transformed from the spirit formation exploded like a heavy bomb.
It sent Perfected Qingfeng and the other four Soul Formation Stage experts flying
Almost at the same time, Li Yu’s figure flashed and grabbed Perfected Qingfeng, who had yet to react. With a bang, he was smashed into the ground.
The entire ground cracked open inch by inch and sank down, sending ripples in the air.
That remotely located palace hall collapsed with a bang from the shockwave of the spirit array formation’s explosion and Li Yu’s attack.
As for Perfected Qingfeng, who was smashed into the ground by Li Yu, his bones shattered inch by inch, and his meridians were broken. He was like a lump of slime that Li Yu grabbed again. This was only because Li Yu had shown mercy. Otherwise, he would have probably merged with the earth.
The other four Soul Formation Stage cultivators were petrified to watch Perfected Qingfeng lifted by Li Yu like a lifeless slime.
Yu Feng stood on the spot as if she was a statue.
There was someone equally shocked. Leaning against the cold palace’s wall while grabbing the grass on the wall tightly-Blood Spirit Monarch. It was really Li Yu! At the moment, the Blood Spirit Monarch’s feelings could only be described with the word ‘f*ck.’
I’ve already gone to another country to hide.
How could I still meet him?
He’s a lingering ghost! “Bring me to your emperor!” Li Yu appeared in front of Yu Feng as if he had teleported. Yu Feng seemed like she had woken up from a nightmare. Her face was pale as she instinctively took a step back.
She looked at the rag doll-like Perfected Qingfeng in Li Yu’s hand with trembling eyes. Fear filled her heart. That feeling was even more terrifying than facing death.
Her master was a Soul Formation Intermediate Stage expert, ranked third in the Xi Liang Dynasty.
And he was crippled just like that!
Is Li Yu a monster? Yu Feng suddenly understood why Ji Qinglan reacted the way he did and said those things.
Li Yu was really someone the Xi Liang Dynasty could not afford to offend.
“Even if you kill me, I won’t bring you to see His Majesty either!” Yu Feng replied defiantly as Ji Qinglan’s guardian. She had some professionalism. She was unwilling to bring Li Yu to see the emperor, knowing that Li Yu was dangerous.
“Yo, you have a lot of character. But, you should understand that if I’m here to kill your emperor, I can flatten the entire palace long ago. I’ve promised Ji Qinglan that I wouldn’t harm his family, so I’ll keep my word.
“I only wish to have a chat with your emperor to prevent damaging our relationship in the future. If you don’t lead the way, I’m sure there’ll be someone in the palace who’s willing to lead the way.
“If there’s really no other way, I can look for him myself. However, you can’t blame me if I accidentally injured the innocent!” Li Yu explained with a smile.
Before he finished his own sentence, he slashed again. At the same time, a palace nearby was severed by the waist and collapsed.
“Stop! I’ll, I’ll bring you there! Don’t do anything rash!” Yu Feng cried out. She was well aware that an expert like Li Yu could easily destroy a country, much less kill their emperor. If he really had the intention to kill, everyone in the palace would probably have perished under his sword by now.
Hence, he might really be here to negotiate.
If I cause him to mess around and hurt my Majesty, I deserve to die.
“Come with me!”
Before long, Li Yu carried the dead dog-like Perfected Qingfeng and followed Yu Feng to a large palace. That place was already surrounded by the top experts of the palace. The huge commotion earlier had naturally alarmed the entire royal palace. Furthermore, the emperor Ji Tianchang had previously heard of Li Yu’s arrival from Perfected Qingfeng. “Let him in!” Ji Tianchang’s voice sounded from the hall.
Those so-called experts feeling panicky beside the doorway heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts, and they quickly opened up a path for Li Yu and Yu Feng to enter the hall.
In the hall, a dignified and solemn figure stood there. However, when he saw Li Yu walk in with Perfected Qingfeng, shock instantly surfaced in his hawk-like eyes.
Perfected Qingfeng was actually beaten to death by this kid! Ji Tianchang was horrified!
