Li Changye Descended Upon the Great Li Imperial Palace
The King Zhennan wanted to refute the words of the eunuch in charge of writing, but he couldn't find any reason to do so.
What a coincidence! The more the King Zhennan thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was just as the eunuch in charge of writing had said. Could it be that Nangong Wenqing had really won over that being?
The thought that his suspicions might come true flashed with a fierce glint in the eyes of the Prince of King Zhennan.
The Prince of King Zhennan was well aware of the strength of Ye Jing, the man from the Hanlin Academy. In his King Zhennan, only the Great Ancestor and the Second Ancestor might be able to rival him.
However, the Great Ancestor and the Second Ancestor are currently in seclusion, refining a great fortuitous opportunity. If they succeed in refining it, there is a high chance that they can use it to break through to the God of Heaven and Earth.
However, he did not know the exact time when the Great Ancestor and the Second Ancestor would be able to successfully refine that fortuitous opportunity.
If that Hanlin Academy Official named Ye Jing really makes trouble for the King Zhennan's lineage, I'm afraid that among the Su Xing Ancestor, none of Ancestor can stand against him.
Currently, the Jiangnan Aristocratic Families and other powerful Lineage are secretly pouring into the Imperial Capital. Judging from this momentum, a major battle is bound to break out in the near future.
With the help of that Peak of Humanity from the Jiangnan Aristocratic Families not be able to contend with them with his current strength. Even if he could, the victory he could achieve in this battle would only be a Pyrrhic one.
When the crane and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. In the Dali today, although his power is the greatest, there are several forces that can rival him.
If the losses are severe, the other three covetous King of Different Surname will benefit, which is clearly not what he wants to see.
King Zhennan immediately felt that this matter was somewhat troublesome and could not think of any good solutions, so he could only ask the eunuch in charge of writing for help.
"Grand Companion, if Nangong Wenqing can really persuade that Hanlin Academy Official to take action, how should we deal with this matter?"
The eunuch holding the pens showed a hint of helplessness, unsure how to respond.
He knew the inside story of the tragic deaths of the three Ancestor a few days ago, and he also had a deep understanding of the power of the official named Ye Jing in the Hanlin Academy.
Although the King Zhennan has a Peak of Humanity of experts under his command, including dozens of peerless masters and a handful of those who have attained the Dao Attainment, to be honest, they are worlds apart from that Hanlin Academy Official.
Such beings are difficult to defeat simply by sheer numbers, and killing them is virtually impossible.
Not only could they not kill him, but the fact that such a person escaped would be a catastrophic disaster for the entire King Zhennan lineage.
He had disagreed with hunting down such beings a few days ago, but the prince in front of him was full of confidence, believing that with the help of three Ancestor, one of whom had been the most powerful in the Dali for a hundred years, killing that Hanlin Academy Official would be a piece of cake.
Unexpectedly, they greatly underestimated the abilities of that Hanlin Academy Official, and in the end, their attempt to gain an advantage backfired, resulting in heavy losses.
Fortunately, the Hanlin Academy Official was unaware of the identities and origins of the three Ancestor; otherwise, given Hanlin Academy Official power, he would have likely thrown the entire King Zhennan's lineage into chaos and unrest.
Just as the two were frowning in worry, a powerful voice came from high above outside the main hall.
"How dare Great Li Imperial Family! The Dao Child of the Grand Void Li Clan Ancient Clan has descended! Why don't you come out and greet him at once?"
Hearing this arrogant tone, as if he intended to treat them like servants, the King Zhennan flew into a rage and instantly soared into the sky, heading towards the direction from which the voice came.
Upon reaching the high altitude, looking at the Mystic Bird Guard standing tall in the sky, a strong killing intent flashed in the eyes of the King Zhennan.
"Where did this stray dog come from, daring to spout such arrogant words? It clearly doesn't respect me at all."
"Taixu Li Clan Dao Child! What Taixu Li Clan Dao Child! How dare you make me, the King, come out to greet you!"
"How dare you be so disrespectful to the Dao Child! You, a mere member of the Great Li Imperial Family, are so audacious! This Head Commander will surely capture you!"
Seeing that the King Zhennan did not take Dao Child seriously at all, Xuan Yi was furious. A terrifying aura burst forth from his body and filled the entire Great Li Imperial Palace.
But after hearing the instructions from Dao Child behind him, he restrained his aura and silently retreated to the side.
"Xuan Yi, step back."
"Yes, Dao Child."
Li Changye stepped out from behind Xuan Yi and told Xuan Yi to step back.
Sensing the terrifying aura emanating from Xuan Yi, the King Zhennan's eyes widened in shock, his face no longer showing any contempt. Looking at Li Changye, who followed, he was filled with even greater apprehension.
Although the appearance of that person was inconspicuous, the aura he exuded was extremely terrifying. He was at least a 'Dao Master Realm' realm. The young man in front of us, who exudes a cold aura, can make such a powerful person submit. His strength is probably even more unfathomable.
Suppressing his anger, the King Zhennan quickly and respectfully said, "Gentlemen, I am the King Zhennan of Dali. As for the Great Li Imperial Family you speak of, they were overthrown by the current Lord of Great Li three days ago."
"Not a single member of the entire Great Li Imperial Family survived."
Not knowing the origins of the people before him, nor whether these two were friends or enemies of the Great Li Imperial Family, the King Zhennan dared not reveal any more information, fearing he would bring trouble upon himself.
"What?! The Great Li Imperial Family has been destroyed!"
Li Changye was slightly surprised, as this was indeed beyond his expectations, but he didn't care. All he needed were some cannon fodder.
The current Lord of Great Li was able to overthrow the Great Li Imperial Family, so the power he wields must be extraordinary. If it could be used to deal with the Great Array at Sword Gate Mountain, it would definitely play a significant role.
"Then Lord of Great Li; I have important matters to discuss."
"I wonder which faction you come from, and what important matter you wish to discuss with the Lord of Great Li!"
"My name is the King Zhennan of Dali, and I am the true Lord of Great Li. If there are any important matters, you may discuss them with me."
Sensing that the young man in black meant him no harm, the King Zhennan immediately revealed his identity, expressing his desire to befriend the young man.
The strength of these two people before us is unfathomable, especially the young man in black, who seems to merge with heaven and earth, a result of cultivating the Dao to an extremely profound level.
Even the Third Ancestor, who perished and whose Dao dissipated, could not comprehend the Dao principles to such a profound level.
Nangong Wenqing's ability to win over that official from the Hanlin Academy greatly increased Hu Jie's power, preparing him to deliver a fatal blow at any moment. If he could win over this young man in black and gain his help, then the predicament he is currently facing would be easily resolved.
Looking at the King Zhennan, who had revealed his identity and was now showing a fawning expression, a deep meaning flashed in Li Changye's eyes, but he didn't care about such petty thoughts.
As long as these ants can help him break through that sword formation, what does it matter if they have some ulterior motives?
