An Bulang, You Are at the End of Your Rope

Chapter 36: An Bulang, You're at Your Wit's End

"Don't forget the main business," my ass.

I'm staging a rebellion, and you need to remind me?!

Ji Wuye's scalp was tingling.

He realized his entire rhythm had been bizarrely thrown off by a hundred thousand miles.

On the other hand, King Ji Yonghao placed great importance on An Bulang. Upon hearing An Bulang's words and taking a closer look at Ji Yinyin, his voice trembled, "You know, she really does resemble my daughter a bit. I can vaguely see similar contours, and even her voice sounds a little like hers..."

"It seems there are still people with discerning eyes," Ji Yinyin said, deeply moved. "Even if Father King didn't treat me well before, we're still father and daughter. You have good eyesight to recognize your daughter."

King Ji Yonghao glanced at An Bulang, then nodded, acknowledging her statement.

The former Ji Yinyin and the current Ji Yinyin indeed had similar contours. They both had a pair of eyes, a nose, a mouth, a pair of ears, and a head. Anyone who said she didn't look like his daughter, King Ji Yonghao would argue with them to death!

An Bulang was very satisfied with King Ji Yonghao's reaction.

King Ji Yonghao couldn't help but glance again at the ethereal maiden standing gracefully on the altar, his heart inexplicably heavy.

The former Ji Yinyin was too ugly to be his daughter, and the current Ji Yinyin was too beautiful to be his daughter.

What could he, King Ji Yonghao, do? He was also in despair!

Even with official recognition, the others below still found it hard to accept.

It was like someone insisting that a fairy was a pig they had raised before; it was simply unacceptable!

"Ah... isn't that the Fairy Sister who threw stones at us?"

The little prince and princess, who had a screw loose, suddenly exclaimed, followed by trembling.

The concubines beside them also changed their expressions, clearly recalling what had happened yesterday.

Ji Yinyin couldn't help but show a flicker of embarrassment on her face, thinking, 'This is bad, I forgot about those witnesses.'

Ji Wuye was the quickest to react. Noticing that all attention was focused on Ji Yinyin's astonishing beauty, he immediately tried to steer the narrative back to rebellion. He glared at An Bulang and roared, "An Bulang! You colluded with Father King using sorcery to harm a court minister! I advise you to surrender quickly!"

An Bulang was shocked. Did this guy have no shame? Did he forget how the Minister of Justice died? Did he forget everyone chanting "Heavenly God is good, Heavenly God is wonderful, Heavenly God's punishment is amazing"?

"Your Highness Crown Prince, An Bulang is a powerful demonic cultivator with profound techniques. Our Soaring Dragon Empire is willing to lend you a hand in eradicating this powerful demonic cultivator!" Qin Shiyue stepped forward at this moment, her pretty face filled with frost.

At the same moment, three elders from the Soaring Dragon Empire's royal family transformed into gray shadows and shot out, landing swiftly in three different directions around An Bulang, sealing off his escape routes. Extremely powerful spiritual energy fluctuations erupted at this moment.

Rumble...

Everyone present felt a suffocating power.

Although the elders' auras were directed at An Bulang, everyone else was also suppressed to the point of immobility. One could imagine the immense pressure on An Bulang, who was at the center of the storm.

"Spirit Attunement Realm... those three are actually great cultivators in the Spirit Attunement Realm!" the cultivators from the Imperial Observatory said with pale faces.

Everyone's hearts trembled upon hearing this.

Great cultivators in the Spirit Attunement Realm! This was the top combat power of the Azure Kingdom!

It was worth noting that the sect leaders of the Azure Kingdom's three major sects were only at this level of cultivation.

In other words, An Bulang was currently facing the encirclement of the Azure Kingdom's entire top-tier combat force.

This formation made everyone present marvel.

"Who exactly is this An Bulang? How could he make the Soaring Dragon Empire deploy so many great cultivators?"

"To have three great cultivators deal with him so seriously, perhaps he is also a great cultivator in the Spirit Attunement Realm!"

"Hiss... Since when did our Azure Kingdom have such a powerful expert?"

"Perhaps he's a national pillar cultivated by the King..."

"A national pillar? Isn't this An Bulang a demonic cultivator?"

The air instantly fell silent. A group of officials who were still discussing heatedly all looked towards a certain young official.

Their expressions were filled with sympathy and pity, as if to say: 'Idiot!'

Any discerning person knew that all of this was just rhetoric for the Crown Prince's rebellion. With so many contradictory scenes, anyone with a modicum of intelligence knew what was going on. They simply didn't step forward because the Crown Prince held great power, and it was unwise to provoke him!

Of course, there were still some loyal and upright officials who wanted to step forward and tear off Ji Wuye's fig leaf.

But seeing An Bulang go up and tear it first, they suppressed their thoughts.

King Ji Yonghao pointed at the handsome man and roared angrily, "Ji Wuye! You sent people to poison your own father, and then you tried to trap me in eternal damnation! Now that your plan has failed, you want to use force to murder the pillar of the Azure Kingdom! Such a rebellious and outrageous act is detested by gods and men, and deserves heavenly punishment!"

"Father King, what are you talking about? I ordered the execution of the chaotic demonic cultivator for the stability of the nation," Ji Wuye said innocently.

King Ji Yonghao gritted his teeth upon hearing this but was helpless.

He knew that with things having reached this point, both sides had completely fallen out, and it all came down to who had the bigger fist.

Seeing this formation, King Ji Yonghao was actually very nervous. He knew An Bulang was strong; the fact that An Bulang could miraculously heal his chronic poison upon meeting him already indicated his strength.

But now, he was facing three great cultivators in the Spirit Attunement Realm!

These were not just any random individuals; they were powerhouses who could establish their own sects in the cultivation world!

Unless one was a top-tier Spirit Attunement Realm expert, they wouldn't even be able to protect themselves against the combined assault of three great Spirit Attunement Realm cultivators.

"Sigh, I originally thought the Other Shore Pavilion would make the first move, and we could just watch the show. But those two elders, I don't even know what they're doing until now. Is their efficiency really that low? Do we really have to go out there ourselves?" Sister Huan Yin shook her head and sighed.

"Let's control the fight's fluctuations. We absolutely must not injure Ji Yinyin by mistake. That woman must be our Sovereign's Empress," Elder Wu Xuzi said solemnly.

"Got it..." Sister Huan Ling licked her red lips with her tender pink tongue, caressed her full chest, and chuckled charmingly, "I'm just afraid our method of killing An Bulang will be too brutal and scare the little girl, ohohoho..."

A confident smile appeared on Ji Wuye's face. "An Bulang, do you see? You're at the end of your rope! Despair? If you kneel and kowtow to me to apologize, perhaps I'll be merciful and give you a quick death."

An Bulang silently scanned the three people on the field, his expression unchanged. Instead, he said with some regret, "Is that it?"

"Is what 'is that it'?" Ji Wuye asked, confused.

An Bulang's gaze swept over Wu Xuzi, Huan Yin, and Huan Ling one by one. "One at Spirit Gathering Sixth Layer, one at Spirit Gathering Third Layer, one at Spirit Gathering Second Layer..."

"I thought Ji Wuye's backing was really awesome and would send someone powerful to deal with me. Turns out you only sent three trash?" An Bulang looked at Ji Wuye with regret. "After I swallowed so many Spirit Stones, you've really disappointed me."

Ji Wuye: "..."

"You're seeking death!!" Elder Wu Xuzi roared, and the white mist surrounding him suddenly solidified into ice and exploded with a bang!
