Chapter 67 The Emperor's Eldest Son (24)

The three remained silent.

Who would feel good about giving back resources they've already gained? But given the current situation, even the strongest sword cultivators were defeated in one blow, clearly indicating that this mid-stage Emperor Realm cultivator is far stronger than them.

"Perhaps, if we join forces with Yue Changqing, we can put up a fight against them."

a long time.

Gan hesitated before speaking.

His usual amiable smile was gone, replaced by an unprecedented solemnity.

The owner of Wan Jin Lou looked at Zhuo Feifan, the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect.

"I'm afraid that won't work."

Zhuo Feifan looked dejected.

"Not to mention my current injuries, even in my prime..." He shook his head and sighed, "The gap between the early and middle stages of the Emperor Realm is probably greater than the gap between the Sovereign Realm and the Emperor Realm."

The three of them fell silent again.

Not only were these three people shocked, but the onlookers waiting to see what would happen were also in a state of shock.

powerful.

That's ridiculously strong.

One move to defeat an Emperor Realm expert!

How can we fight like this?

"I want my Xuanjing back, I'm not gambling anymore!" someone immediately shouted.

"I'm not gambling anymore, Mom. I want to go home!"

Those who bet on Changqing were filled with despair.

"Hehe, a bet's a bet. Do you want to break the rules at Wan Jin Lou's place?"

Those who bet on Yue Cangwu were naturally overjoyed.

"Luckily, I only bet two thousand Xuanjing. I remember someone bet one hundred thousand! Thinking about it this way, I feel comforted."

Some people started to comfort themselves.

Upon hearing this, everyone's gaze involuntarily turned to Liu Lingxin, who was not far away, resting her chin on her hand, seemingly lost in thought.

"Tsk, he must be heartbroken to the point of not being able to breathe," someone asserted.

"Ten thousand Xuan Crystals! If it were me, I would have smashed my head against a wall and died!" someone exclaimed, pounding their chest in frustration.

"Heh, even if she's a true disciple of a holy land, 100,000 Xuan Crystals would probably be all her savings. You guys should have some compassion and stop provoking that young girl." Someone said sarcastically.

However, Liu Lingxin didn't seem too nervous. She listened to everyone's discussion without even glancing at them.

How boring.

What should we eat tonight? Will they be able to finish cooking quickly? She needs to go upstairs and ask about the spice recipe.

As she was thinking this, suddenly, the jade pendant in her bosom felt warm.

"They're here."

She said it softly.

Those around her hadn't sensed anything yet, and were all stunned when they heard her words.

"What's here?"

Soon everyone realized what had happened. A figure had appeared on the horizon, dressed in a simple blue robe, looking almost like an immortal.

Evergreen!

Many people gasped softly.

At the summit, the Wan Jin Lou Master and the others were equally surprised. They had thought that the kid was very slippery and might run away after learning that Yue Cangwu had broken through, but they didn't expect him to actually show up.

All three were at the Emperor Realm, and their senses were more acute than those of the others.

After only a short while, they all frowned.

They couldn't even sense the fluctuations in the other's aura!

Has he concealed his cultivation level?

No.

That shouldn't be the case.

This isn't a scene of running away; we're about to face a major battle in full view of everyone. What's the point of concealing our cultivation level?

They had no doubt that Changqing had broken through to the Emperor Realm, but the sensations they were experiencing were rather strange.

"Perhaps it's related to the cultivation technique he practices."

Gan Zheng frowned and guessed.

"Should we join forces with him? Perhaps this is an opportunity."

Zhuo Feifan struggled to his feet.

Having reached the Emperor Realm, they were naturally unwilling to remain subordinate to others. Moreover, they were already at odds with Yue Cangwu. Once Yue Cangwu dealt with Yue Changqing, his next target would likely be them.

"Let's see how it goes first."

The owner of Wan Jin Lou frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

Over there, Changqing had already sensed the presence of countless people around him, but he had no intention of saying anything. He simply took a step, and the next moment, he appeared on the thousand-foot-high stone wall of the Imperial Pass.

A hundred feet away lies Yue Cangwu's palace, from which one can vaguely see the figure sitting high on the main seat in the main hall.

"You unfilial son! Now that you see your father, why don't you kneel?!"

A cold shout came from the palace.

The sound, combined with its imposing force, spread like a stone thrown into a still lake, causing a buzzing sound in the ears and a wave of dizziness to wash over the onlookers.

This is a preemptive strike!

Many people understood this.

High in the air, Liu Lingxin also took a step back and frowned.

Beside her, Aunt Hong had already appeared. With a flick of her sleeve, Liu Lingxin felt much better.

"I never imagined that the Yue Emperor would be this powerful."

Aunt Hong sighed softly.

"Lingxin, you're probably going to lose all your Xuanjing."

Liu Lingxin didn't speak, but pointed downwards. Aunt Hong looked in the direction she was pointing and was also taken aback.

Yue Changqing stood upright on the wall, his robes fluttering in the wind, but he remained calm and composed, not retreating in a disheveled manner as everyone had imagined, and his expression did not even change.

A clear, melodious voice came from his mouth:

"Yue Cangwu, if this is all the strength you have, I advise you to take the initiative to enter the battle. It would be a way to fulfill your life's persona."

Everyone was stunned.

Enter the battle?

Could it be referring to the famous Nine Heavens Demon-Slaying Formation?

"You unfilial son!"

Inside the palace, a loud shout rang out.

Changqing's figure flashed, a streak of light traversing the sky, heading towards the South China Sea.

Show off and then run away.

That was so exciting!

"They escaped? They escaped?"

Before anyone could react, a gust of wind swept out from the palace, and a thunderous roar shook the void.

"You unfilial son, you are rebellious and disrespectful! Today, I will kill you for your father's sake!"

Yue Cangwu took a single step, and was already a thousand miles away, actually chasing after him.

The two disappeared from everyone's sight, one after the other.

Onlookers waiting to see what happens: ? ? ?

Can I get a refund?

Someone suddenly remembered something and shouted, "Wan Jin Lou, how are we going to settle that bet? Give me my Xuanjing back, I'm not playing anymore!"

"Hehe, once the bet is placed, there's no reason to get a refund. Just wait and see, whoever wins will get their money back."

The powerful figures from Wan Jin Lou stepped forward to stabilize the situation.

"Damn it! Who knows if they'll even come back! Do you think Wan Jin Lou can control them? You have to back down, or you're not leaving today!"

"Exactly! We don't accept the result without seeing the process, and we have to refund it today!"

The spectators began to clamor, mainly those who had bet on Changqing. Seeing Yue Cangwu's displayed strength, they regretted their decision, and were even more worried about losing their fortunes after seeing Changqing retreat.

Immediately, someone pulled out a magic weapon, indicating that they were ready to fight at the slightest provocation.

Those who bet on Yue Cangwu remained calm, and even had the leisure to retort.

"Heh, you yourselves couldn't see the situation clearly, so who can you blame for making the wrong vote?"

"Go ahead and fight! Make your move! Wan Jin Lou has an Emperor-level expert in charge. How many lives do you have?"

"I think you grown men are not as good as a young girl. Didn't you see that she invested 100,000 Xuanjing? Can you still sit still now?"

Provoked by this, the group that had bet on Changqing couldn't hold back any longer, and some of them immediately rushed forward.

"Damn it, what the hell are you talking about? I might not dare to beat up Wan Jinlou, but I'd dare to beat up you!"

"Damn it, do you think I'm a pushover? You want to hit me? Go ahead and hit me!"

Boom!

The two collided.

Seeing this, the others also sprang into action.

Seeing that things were about to get chaotic, Aunt Hong quickly pulled Liu Lingxin back a hundred feet.

"Stop it, all of you!"

Suddenly, a loud shout came from afar, and the aura of an Emperor Realm expert swept across the sky, spreading out powerfully and instantly silencing the crowd.

"OP."

The powerful figures from Wan Jin Lou quickly bowed in respect.

The newcomer was none other than Wan Qianjin, the owner of Wan Jin Lou, a powerful expert at the Emperor Realm.

He had a clear understanding of the situation, glanced at it, and chuckled.

"Ladies and gentlemen, Wan Jin Lou is very particular about its business practices. Once you've made a purchase, you're done. We treat everyone fairly, young and old, and this is something we will never change."

The crowd remained silent, but their eyes revealed their resentment.

Wan Qianjin saw this but didn't care. He waved his hand, and two more old men appeared behind him.

"However, today's events were indeed somewhat unexpected. As compensation, Wan Jin Lou will open another round midway through. Everyone can continue to place bets. If you choose correctly this time and place a large bet, you can still break even, and you might even make a fortune!"
