As the thirteenth prince of the Divine Phoenix Empire, Feng Xichen had spent his entire life in glory and fear and flattery. He had never suffered any humiliation, let alone such a great humiliation as having his head stepped on by someone. His brain buzzed, and he tried desperately to struggle, but the pressure on his head and body seemed like a huge mountain. Not to mention that he was injured now, even if he was in good condition, he would not be able to break free.
He tried his best, but his body could only twitch slightly, and he couldn't break free at all. His head was stepped on the ground, and he kept whimpering.
The blood of the two elders, Black and Red, was boiling after being hit by Yun Che's Heavenly Wolf Slash, and their profound energy was in chaos. When they saw Feng Xichen's miserable state, they almost popped their eyes. The two of them could no longer care about stabilizing their blood and qi, and they rushed towards Yun Che, roaring: "Let go of Your Highness!! Otherwise... Otherwise, my Phoenix Divine Sect will definitely kill all nine of your clans! Make you live a life worse than death!"
Yun Che had heard this kind of threat at least eight thousand times in his two lifetimes. He stepped on Feng Xichen’s head, pressing the weight of the entire Dragon Fault on it, and laughed arrogantly: “Okay! Then I will wait for your Phoenix Divine Sect to come and destroy my nine clans! But I don’t know whether your Phoenix Divine Sect can succeed, but since you have said these words, this poor creature under my feet must die today! Tsk tsk, I only wanted a hand or a foot from him, but you forced me to take his life. It turns out that in your Divine Phoenix Empire, the life of a prince is given away for fun!”
As soon as the voice fell, Yun Che’s face suddenly turned cold, and he swung Dragon Fault. A terrifying aura instantly condensed on the sword, ready to smash down.
“Stop… stop it!!”
The threat of the extremely powerful Phoenix Divine Sect did not work at all. Instead, Yun Che used it as a reason to kill Feng Xichen. Yun Che's unhesitating action shocked the two elders, Hei and Chi, and almost knelt on the spot. They finally realized at this moment that facing Yun Che, a "madman" who did things without considering the consequences, deterrence, threats, and intimidation were completely useless. Even if Feng Xichen's identity as a prince was there, he would still take his life without hesitation! !
The two of them were no match for Yun Che at all, and Feng Xichen's life was in his hands. The two elders, Black and Red, no longer dared to act rashly. Even though they wished they could tear Yun Che into pieces, they had to suppress the anger on their faces. The old man in black took a deep breath, restrained his expression, and gritted his teeth as he said, "Yun Che! Today... Today we admit defeat! You release His Highness right now... As long as you release His Highness, we will never attack you again today, and we will leave right away!"
“Hahahaha!” Yun Che laughed loudly with his head raised, as if he had just heard a huge joke. He said sarcastically, “What you said is just like farting! It’s as if I’m afraid that you will attack me!” He stretched out his finger and hooked it at the two of them, “I won’t let him go, but you guys can attack me, come… come on!”
“You!!” The black-clothed old man’s face turned extremely ugly, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood on the spot. The red-clothed old man gritted his teeth, took a step forward and said: “Yun Che, don’t be so ruthless in what you do…” He had just said half of the sentence when he saw Yun Che’s face suddenly darken. His heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he immediately dared not say a single word of threat. His face and tone softened at a very fast speed: “Today’s incident was indeed our first offense. As long as… as long as you release our prince and let us go, we can let bygones be bygones for what happened today… Oh no, we can pretend that it never happened! We won’t tell anyone about it either…” He glanced around and continued: “I believe that no one present will spread it… Otherwise, my Phoenix Divine Sect will definitely wipe it out.”
Although the four words "Phoenix Divine Sect" did not seem to have any deterrent effect on Yun Che, to others, it was no less than the intimidation of God! As soon as the red-clothed old man's words came out, everyone's faces changed rapidly, and they were as silent as cicadas. They wished they could nod their heads on the spot to show their determination not to spread the news to anyone.
These words, coming from the mouths of the people of the Phoenix Divine Sect, sounded extremely servile. In history, no one from the Blue Wind Nation had ever made the people of the Phoenix Divine Sect show such a begging attitude.
“Is that so?” Yun Che squinted his eyes, but his eyes were extremely disdainful, and he said slowly: “What you said is simply an insult to my intelligence. You followed this shitty prince to my Blue Wind to show off your power, but you were abused like dogs by a junior of my Blue Wind country. If this matter gets out... Tsk tsk, you will cause the entire Phoenix Divine Sect to lose face. The once arrogant Phoenix Divine Sect will become a laughing stock for all countries. With such consequences, this shitty prince will certainly not die, but you two old guys, being tortured to death is the lightest punishment. You two can be said to be the people in the world who don’t want this matter to be spread the most. I guess you both want to kill everyone present. Now you are actually using this matter as a bargaining chip? Are you taking me as an idiot?”
Yun Che's words directly hit the vital points of the two elders, Black and Red, causing them to tremble all over. At the same time, it also awakened everyone present. They suddenly understood why Yun Che dared to be so domineering in front of the three people from the Phoenix Sect. As the strongest country among the seven Tianxuan countries, the Phoenix Empire has always been a hegemonic existence. None of the other six countries dared to challenge its edge. Even if the other six countries united, they would definitely not be the opponent of the Phoenix Empire. And the Phoenix Sect was the hegemon of the Phoenix Empire.
No one has ever been able to defy the might of the Divine Phoenix Sect, and no one has ever been able to trample on the dignity of the Divine Phoenix Sect.
But today, the three great kings of the Phoenix Divine Sect, including a real prince, were defeated by a young man of only seventeen in the weakest Cangfeng Country, and even the prince's head was stepped on. If this were to be spread, it would be the greatest shame in the history of the Phoenix Divine Sect! Even the deterrent power of the Phoenix Divine Sect in the Profound Sky Continent would be greatly affected. And the creator of this shame, Feng Xichen, as a prince, would at most receive some punishment, while the two elders, Hei Chi, would most likely be sentenced to death. Therefore, as Yun Che said, even if they could not retaliate against Yun Che with the strength of the Phoenix Divine Sect, they would never want these things to be known by the sect and the people of the world.
Yun Che seemed to have been certain of this from the beginning.
The faces of the two elders, Black and Red, turned red. The old man in red trembled all over and pointed at Yun Che and said, “Yun Che, don’t go too far!!”
“I’m going too far!” Yun Che sneered coldly: “I have never met you and have no grudges against you, but you came uninvited on my wedding day, not only mocking and humiliating me, disrupting my wedding ceremony, but also trying to kill me! Now you turn around and say that I’m going too far? Ha, these four words of yours are not only ridiculous, but also make me very unhappy... and those who make me unhappy, I will always make them... even more unhappy!!”
With a stern shout, Yun Che suddenly smashed down the Dragon Fault in his hand, landing fiercely on Feng Xichen's body.
Boom! !
The violent power of the heavy sword exploded on Feng Xichen's body. The clear sound of bone cracking and the painful roar from underground instantly spread far away. Under this sword, Feng Xichen's bones were broken in more than a dozen places, and his meridians were broken. The blood vessels in his body burst in pieces. His whole body was like a leaking blood bag, and blood was flowing all over.
“Your Highness!! Yun Che!! You…”
“Me what?” Yun Che narrowed his eyes and raised his heavy sword again: “Do you still want to continue to say that I am too bullying? It doesn’t matter, just say it. I just don’t know if this poor creature under my feet can survive and withstand my next sword strike.”
“You…you…you…” The two elders, Hei and Chi, felt cold all over, their faces were pale and bloodless. They looked at the half-dead Feng Xichen and could not utter a complete sentence for a long time.
Cang Wanhe quickly stepped forward and said, “Yun Che, the Divine Phoenix Prince is still young, so he acted impulsively, but after all, it did not cause any serious consequences. No matter what mistakes he made, he is still a guest from afar, and now he has learned his lesson. They have also promised to forget what happened today… If you really kill the Divine Phoenix Prince, it will not benefit both parties. How about you let him go?”
Yun Che certainly didn’t really want to kill Feng Xichen, otherwise he would have done it long ago. If they had seriously injured Feng Xichen, they might have tried their best to conceal the matter for the sake of face and to avoid severe punishment, and swallowed all the humiliation and heavy injuries they had suffered. But if they really killed Feng Xichen, that would be a completely different concept. Yun Che knew very well that he could never be a match for the Phoenix Divine Sect at the moment.
He had to vent his anger, but he couldn't kill people, and the best way out was naturally Cang Wanhe. He knew that Cang Wanhe would definitely show up at the right time.
When Cang Wanhe spoke, Yun Che, who had been arrogant, immediately put on a respectful look. After listening carefully to what he said, he only thought for a few seconds before respectfully saying, “Although I feel resentful in my heart, since it is the emperor’s order, Yun Che will naturally obey.”
After saying that, Yun Che removed his foot from Feng Xichen’s head, then kicked Feng Xichen, whose head was sunken into the ground, towards the two elders, Black and Red. The two men hurried forward and caught Feng Xichen, who was covered in blood.
"Humph! You disrupted my wedding and wanted to kill me. I wanted to kill you all here, but since the emperor pleaded for you, I will let you go! Why don't you thank me, Emperor Cangfeng!"
Although Cang Wanhe is an emperor, the core figures of the big sects have always been superficially respectful to him, with disdainful eyes, and some even don't even bother to do the superficial work. But today, Yun Che, who had severely abused the Phoenix Sect and shocked the heroes of Cangfeng, was respectful to him and "obeyed" his words directly. Cang Wanhe had been in office for so many years, and for the first time he felt so proud, and even his back straightened up unconsciously. He suddenly felt endless gratitude towards Yun Che in his heart. He knew very well that Yun Che's simple attitude would make Cang Wanhe truly become the emperor who commands Cangfeng after he succeeded to the throne for more than 20 years!
