Guixu Holy Land Disciple, Sima Chusheng!

The Azure Emperor's expression changed drastically as the words fell.

"How dare you! Who is it, who dares to insult my father the Emperor!"

Upon hearing this, the First Prince Lu Ling's face changed, and he roared in anger, stepping forward two paces.

Lu Chen, who had been eating a chicken leg, also stopped. He slowly put down the leg and wiped his hands with a nearby towel.

"So what if I said it? Was I wrong? The dignified Azure Emperor, at the Land Immortal Realm. On his son's joyous wedding day, in such a setting, unable to protect even his own subjects, isn't that laughable."

At this moment, a man in elegant white robes, holding a folding fan and wearing a disdainful expression, emerged from the crowd behind.

So pretentious.

Seeing this, Lu Chen secretly curled his lip.

"Who are you!"

Lu Ling narrowed his eyes, emitting a powerful pressure.

"I am Sima Chusheng, the eldest young master of the Western Sima Family, one of the Four Great Families..."

Pfft...

Lu Chen, who had just taken a sip of water, couldn't help but spit it out with a pfft upon hearing this.

"Hahaha, son of a bitch..."

Lu Chen couldn't hold back any longer and burst into unrestrained laughter.

"Insolent!"

Sima Chusheng's face turned instantly cold upon seeing Lu Chen's laughter, especially hearing the insult.

He let out a low growl, and then the pressure of the Ninth Heaven of the Emperor Realm descended upon Lu Chen like a tidal wave.

"Ninth Heaven of Emperor Realm!"

The onlookers were all shocked to see Sima Chusheng's cultivation at the Ninth Heaven of Emperor Realm, a Half-step Emperor Realm.

Even the Azure Emperor wore a look of surprise.

Considering Sima Chusheng's age, less than thirty, to possess the strength of the Ninth Heaven of Emperor Realm was astonishing.

Beside him, Lu Ling's expression shifted slightly as he felt Sima Chusheng's pressure.

As the First Prince of the Great Qian Divine Dynasty, he was twenty-eight years old and only at the Ninth Heaven of King Realm.

Yet, here was a young man around his age, a full major realm higher than him.

This was a blatant slap in the face to the royal family.

The Azure Emperor's face changed drastically as he saw Sima Chusheng unleashing his pressure on Lu Chen.

With a cold snort, a terrifying Emperor's might surged towards Sima Chusheng.

In an instant, Sima Chusheng's face turned pale, and he quickly retreated two steps.

"Your Majesty Azure Emperor, this is merely a minor dispute between juniors. For you, the great Azure Emperor of Great Qian, to personally intervene, isn't that beneath your dignity?"

Sima Chusheng gritted his teeth and spoke after enduring the Azure Emperor's powerful blow.

"You are Sima Chusheng, who joined Guixu Holy Land over a decade ago. After more than ten years, you've reached the Ninth Heaven of Emperor Realm. Truly worthy of being a genius from Guixu Holy Land."

The Azure Emperor spoke slowly.

What, a Heavenly Chosen from a Holy Land!

Upon hearing the Azure Emperor's words, the onlookers' faces showed astonishment.

Most of the high-ranking officials of Great Qian were aware of the Holy Lands that surpassed the Eastern Cang Region.

There were two major Holy Lands and two major Forbidden Zones in the Eastern Cang Region:

Guixu Holy Land and Eastern Cang Holy Land.

The Forbidden Zones were the Sacred Demon Forbidden Zone and the Blood Demon Abyss Forbidden Zone!

These two Holy Lands and two Forbidden Zones reigned supreme over all forces and nations in the Eastern Cang Region.

To the beings of the Eastern Cang Region, those from the Holy Lands were like immortals.

They were impossibly far away.

Therefore, upon hearing the Azure Emperor's words, everyone looked at Sima Chusheng with envy and reverence.

Joining a Holy Land essentially meant transcending the mortal world and becoming an immortal.

As the Azure Emperor finished speaking, and feeling the reverent gazes around him, Sima Chusheng's face showed pride. He lifted his head, even looking down his nose at the Azure Emperor.

"It's merely luck. I've heard that His Highness the First Prince is also a once-in-a-century genius. Since it's the Eleventh Prince's grand wedding day, why don't I spar with His Highness the First Prince to liven things up!"

Sima Chusheng said with a smile.

As the words fell, both the Azure Emperor and Lu Ling's expressions changed.

Lu Ling, at the Ninth Heaven of King Realm, was a full major realm below Sima Chusheng's Ninth Heaven of Emperor Realm.

The outcome of a spar between them was obvious; it would be a complete annihilation.

Sima Chusheng was clearly trying to slap the royal family in the face!

Sima Chusheng looked at Lu Ling with a smile, while the onlookers all had expressions of people watching a good show.

The royal family had truly declined.

The Azure Emperor of the Great Qian Divine Dynasty had become indecisive, unlike his younger days when he wielded his sword and suppressed the entire Eastern Cang Region for decades.

Even the princes of Great Qian were no match, not even comparing to the second generation of the Four Great Families.

And at the center of this confrontation, Lu Ling's expression flickered between anger and uncertainty.

Since Sima Chusheng had proposed a duel in front of the Great Qian envoys and even envoys from surrounding countries, Lu Ling found it difficult to refuse. Otherwise, it would be seen as the royal family showing weakness.

With the Azure Emperor present, how could he possibly save face?

However, if he agreed, he would undoubtedly not be Sima Chusheng's opponent and would suffer a crushing defeat, leading to an equally difficult outcome.

Lu Ling was in a dilemma, caught between a rock and a hard place.

Behind him, although the Azure Emperor sat calmly, his subtle expressions revealed his immense anger and helplessness.

There was nothing he could do.

The Sima Family had truly produced a dragon.

They had raised a good son who had joined the Guixu Holy Land.

The Azure Emperor gently rubbed his fingers, his brow furrowed.

"What, is the First Prince afraid? If you believe you're not my opponent, then just admit defeat and acknowledge you're inferior to me, and this matter will be over," Sima Chusheng said with a cold laugh and a look of disdain upon seeing Lu Ling's struggle.

"You, I..."

Hearing this, Lu Ling's face flushed with anger. He gritted his teeth and was about to step forward.

However, just then, Lu Chen, who had been quietly sitting beside the Azure Emperor, suddenly stood up. He slowly walked over to Lu Ling and pulled him behind him.

"Huh?"

As the atmosphere became extremely tense, everyone looked on in surprise as Lu Chen suddenly stepped forward.

Why would a six-year-old brat step out at this moment?

Could he possibly fight in place of his older brother?

Behind them, the Azure Emperor's expression changed slightly upon seeing Lu Chen step out.

He instinctively wanted to speak.

But the next moment, the Azure Emperor narrowed his eyes, looking at Lu Chen thoughtfully.

He had always been aware of the shock his six-year-old son had caused him.

Therefore, he trusted Lu Chen almost unconditionally.

Now that Lu Chen had suddenly stepped forward, the Azure Emperor, despite instinctively wanting to stop him, forced himself to calm down, considering Lu Chen's mysterious nature.

He wanted to see what Lu Chen intended to do.

"Brother Sima, why do you insist on fighting?" Lu Chen tilted his head and asked Sima Chusheng with a curious expression.
