Have Your Master Come Here

After the Thief God took over the Shi Clan, the Marquis Who Guards the North learned of Chen Ning's identity.

He just didn't expect that such a person would have some connection with his second great-uncle.

Otherwise, if Second Uncle were to use the Heaven-Stealing Ghost Hand to steal the fortune of the Great Yan...

Perhaps, he could even become king.

Instead of being at the mercy of others, like fish on a chopping board.

They could only let Zhou Ye, acting on the orders of the Great Yan Prince, ride roughshod over their Marquis Who Guards the North's mansion.

The reason why the Marquis Who Guards the North knew that the Prince of Great Yan was behind Zhou Ye was because he had once been the prince's puppet, and had been placed in this position by his own hands.

However, it seems that this ambitious prince is now looking to use a different tool to replace him.

Despite knowing Chen Ning's identity.

He still held absolutely no hope.

While the Dragon-Seeking Sect is undoubtedly a super sect, such a behemoth is certainly not monolithic internally.

They must be from various factions.

It's impossible to always obey the sect leader's orders.

Moreover, how could a power of this caliber easily interfere in the affairs of the imperial court?

Although the Sword Immortal Li Changtian once annihilated the Wind-Riding Imperial Dynasty with a single sword strike.

It seems glamorous.

But that's because the Wind-Riding Imperial Dynasty itself is the target of universal condemnation.

The ruler of a country was also a tyrant.

The people under his rule suffered greatly, and many were displaced and homeless.

Therefore, the Sword Immortal's annihilation of the Wind-Riding Imperial Dynasty was in line with the will of the people, and he eliminated a scourge for them.

But the Great Yan Imperial Dynasty was different.

The Great Yan Dynasty is prosperous and has a profound cultural heritage. It is deeply loved by the people and enjoys lasting blessings.

The Dragon-Seeking Sect possess the power to destroy the Great Yan.

But I would never do it lightly.

If its foundation is disturbed, the Unseen forces will bring great calamity.

Moreover, this action is without justification, and the sect's reputation will be ruined.

It is despicable to follow the righteous path.

The elders and powerful figures within the Dragon-Seeking Sect would not allow this young sect leader to act recklessly.

For sects of this caliber, reputation is paramount.

That's why the Marquis Who Guards the North was so certain.

Even Chen Ning couldn't change the fact that the Marquis's mansion had been destroyed.

If it were an ordinary court official, that would be one thing.

Even Zhou Ye was just a nobody.

As the sect leader, even if he acts a bit domineeringly, it won't be a big deal; he can protect the Marquis's mansion and the Shi Clan.

But behind Zhou Ye stood the Prince of Great Yan.

And it is highly likely that he will be the future Great Yan Emperor!

Marquis Who Guards the North remained reclining in his rattan chair, watching indifferently as Chen Ning's figure stepped out of the mansion.

He listened indifferently to the sounds of fighting outside the door.

They waited indifferently for the powerful figure outside the door to break in.

Sudden.

His expression froze.

"They haven't attacked yet... I underestimated this Sect Leader Chen."

Outside the mansion.

A dozen or so figures fell to the cold ground, becoming corpses.

In the distance, only one person remained standing, shivering uncontrollably.

The seemingly peaceful young man before me actually possesses such terrifying combat power?

This truly horrified him.

It even instilled fear in him, a powerful expert at the Spirit Martial Realm Peak.

The opponent was simply too nonchalant in his attacks, killing each person with just one move.

In close combat, he casually unleashed a few palm strikes and killed the invading enemy.

If it's a long-range attack, you're at a greater disadvantage!

The young man actually took out a longbow, and the raindrops falling between heaven and earth could be transformed into arrows.

Each arrow was fired.

Each one ends a life.

Throughout the entire ordeal, the handsome young man didn't utter a single word.

Such ruthlessness truly made him want to back down.

But he cannot back down.

He was ordered by General Zhou to take over the Marquis Who Guards the North tonight.

But right now...

How can he possibly win her over?

He shouted from afar, "Sir, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business, otherwise, you won't have a place to stay in the entire capital or even the entire Great Yan Imperial Dynasty!"

"Have your master come over."

Chen Ning ignored the other party's threat and calmly said that he intended to spare his life so that he could deliver a message.

Otherwise, if I kill them all, I'll have to make a trip myself, which would be a bit of a hassle.

The Thief God, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but be shocked by what he had just witnessed.

I never expected Chen Ning to become so strong.

Previously, at the Marquis Who Guards the North's residence, in order to counter the killing formation, I had to use the [Heaven-Stealing Ghost Hand] at its peak.

But now, with sheer overwhelming strength, they have defeated an opponent who gave even the Thief God a major headache.

Those were more than a dozen experts at the Spirit Martial Realm Late Stage.

The person who delivered the message was at the Spirit Martial Realm Peak.

But that man didn't even have the courage to fight Chen Ning.

Now all they dare to do is talk the talk.

After Chen Ning gave him a way out, he immediately seized the opportunity and said, "Fine! When my general arrives, he will definitely not let you off!"

Then, he turned and stepped into the night.

They vanished without a trace.

Before long, a large number of soldiers in armor rushed from the distant street.

The scale of the operation was enormous.

The Marquis's residence was completely surrounded.

The leader, mounted on horseback, was none other than the Mighty General Zhou Ye.

He reined in his horse, scrutinized Chen Ning's figure, and spoke domineeringly, "Did you kill so many of my men?"

Chen Ning nodded, his gaze falling on the group of soldiers behind him, a hint of disappointment in his eyes.

The person in question didn't show up.

Zhou Ye roared in fury, "How dare you kill my Zhou Ye? Are you tired of living?"

The eldest prince has already issued a secret order for the Marquis Who Guards the North to relinquish its military power within three days.

Zhou Ye had originally planned to have his men storm the Marquis's residence tonight, leaving no survivors, but unexpectedly, things took a turn for the worse.

He was promoted by the eldest prince, and his current prestige and wealth all come from the eldest prince.

Therefore, he dared not be careless in the slightest.

Even if it means tearing off all pretenses tonight, or even openly razing the Marquis's mansion to the ground, we are willing to do it.

But Chen Ning was clearly not interested in Zhou Ye, and instead said, "Have the person behind you come here personally."

Upon hearing this...

Zhou Ye frowned, a mocking smile playing on his lips, and said, "Do you know who's behind me?"

"I don't know, no matter how old he is, can he be bigger than the Great Yan Emperor?"

Chen Ning looked at Zhou Ye with a playful smile.

The latter, however, smiled knowingly and said, "How can you be so sure that the person behind me isn't His Majesty the Emperor?"

These words were spoken.

The space suddenly felt strangely cold.

The wind was biting cold.

Zhou Ye couldn't help but shiver.

"Tell me then, is I the one behind you?"

Beside Chen Ning, Xiao Yuan, who had been silent all along, suddenly removed the human skin mask he was wearing, revealing the face of the Yan Emperor.

Splash!

In that instant, all the soldiers present knelt down in front of Yan Emperor, their weapons falling to the ground.

Zhou Ye was so terrified that he fell off his horse.

Trembling, he kowtowed and said, "This... this humble general Zhou Ye greets Your Majesty!"

"I ask you, is the person behind you me?"

Yan Emperor's expression was icy.

He was certainly not the person behind Zhou Ye, but who that person was, the answer was obvious.

How could he not be furious?

Even before he died, his son had already begun secretly amassing power and vying for military command.

"Does he think I'm in his way because of this position?"

Yan Emperor gave a cold rebuke.

All the soldiers were trembling with fear.

I didn't dare to breathe.

Zhou Ye trembled violently; disaster was imminent!

Then, with his head down and a fierce look in his eyes, he resolutely reached out and slapped his own face.

Now that things have come to this, only death can save his entire family.

But Yan Emperor won't give him that chance.

Call out!

The royal expert, who had been lying in ambush, had already seized the opportunity and shot out a burst of energy, deflecting Zhou Ye's palm.
