Jun Liuyue slowly raised her eyes and swung out the Soul-Slaying Whip in her hand.
"Your Highness, be careful!"
Before the guards could react, a strong gust of wind swept in and blocked their way.
The Soul-Slaying Whip wrapped around Sikong Yu's waist and pulled him down from the city tower.
"ah!"
Sikong Yu fell to the ground from mid-air. His dantian had been shattered some time ago. Although he had taken the Spirit Gathering Elixir to repair his dantian, his cultivation had not yet recovered.
He heard the sound of bones breaking from the sudden blow.
"Jun Liuyue, you are taking revenge on me, the Crown Prince!"
Sikong Yu gritted his teeth: "You want to rebel?"
"I can't keep up with such a big hat. Didn't His Highness the Crown Prince just fall off by himself?" Liu Yue blinked innocently, and with a flick of her wrist, she sent Sikong Yu flying out of control.
It landed right in the crowd.
The people quickly dispersed.
They didn't dare to hit him directly, but they threw all the rotten vegetable leaves and eggs they had at Sikong Yu. When they ran out of eggs, they picked up stones from the ground and threw them at him.
"A bunch of troublemakers, how dare they!"
A furious roar rang out, and spiritual energy shook away the surrounding people.
"Grand Tutor."
Sikong Yu was seeing stars from the impact, but when he saw the person who came, it was like seeing a savior.
"You're that little girl from the Jun family?" He Ning narrowed his eyes, his sharp gaze falling on Jun Liuyue. When he saw the giant beast, his eyes paused slightly.
There are three top-level experts in Tianyan Kingdom: Jun Tianlan, Mu Nan, and Jun Tianlan. Mu Nan was so angry that he was in a slump and the entire Mu family withdrew from the four major families. As for Jun Tianlan, he was detained by the emperor.
And then there's the person right in front of me—Grand Tutor Ning.
His cultivation level is at the Spirit Saint Realm, and he comes from the Divine Soul Palace.
The Divine Soul Hall, Ghost Hall, Alchemy Sect, Myriad Beasts Sect, and Heavenly Inquiry Academy are known as the two sects, two halls, and one academy of the Canglan Continent!
No one knows why Grand Tutor Ning is protecting the Tianyan royal family.
Seeing Sikong Yu's disheveled appearance, Grand Tutor Ning frowned. "The dignified Crown Prince has made a mess of himself, losing all face."
"The Grand Tutor is right." Sikong Yu was seething with anger.
"The last time I saw you, you were just a little girl. I never imagined that in just five years, you would have grown to such an extent, and become a summoner." Grand Tutor Ning's gaze swept over the Chongming Bird and the Taotie. He couldn't even tell what level the latter's contracted beast was.
"I never expected Junjing to have such an outstanding daughter."
Grand Tutor Ning laughed, but the laughter didn't reach his eyes; instead, a chilling killing intent shone through them.
Liu Yue did not miss the murderous intent in the old man's eyes.
She raised her eyes slightly. "Yes, my father is outstanding, so naturally I am just as outstanding, unlike some people who can only be rats in the gutter their whole lives."
"Oh."
Grand Tutor Ning sneered, and an invisible pressure swept towards Jun Liuyue.
An invisible contest.
To test the little girl's true nature.
But the next second, Grand Tutor Ning's expression changed; he couldn't see through this little girl's cultivation level.
I couldn't sense any spiritual energy fluctuations around her either.
Either Jun Liuyue has a magical artifact that conceals her cultivation level, or... her cultivation level is far above his!
If it's the latter, it's absolutely impossible!
Jun Liuyue is only sixteen years old, while he has cultivated for most of his life and has only achieved the level of Spirit Saint.
“The girl from the Jun family.”
At this moment, Emperor Sikong walked up to the city wall.
Seeing the besieged palace and the arrogant Jun Liuyue, this brat is only sixteen years old!
How could she have such audacity? Treason! She's committing treason!
But now he has to keep her calm.
"This humble woman greets Your Majesty."
"No need for formalities. You did very well today! I never expected the Crown Prince to issue such an order. It truly pains me."
The Emperor learned what had happened from the guards.
"For me, the lives of the people are above all else! But the Crown Prince has treated human life with contempt and disregarded the lives of the people. Fortunately, you have saved everything."
Emperor Sikong said in a pretentious manner, "Guards, take the Crown Prince away and make him kneel at the palace gate to confess his sins and repent!"
"Father, Father Emperor!"
Upon seeing Emperor Sikong appear, Sikong Yu was momentarily pleased, thinking that Jun Liuyue would be arrested on charges of treason.
He never expected his father to target him. He was the Crown Prince! How could he kneel before these lowly commoners?
Emperor Sikong's actions salvaged some of the people's hearts.
Sikong Yu was forced to kneel at the city gate.
"Your Majesty is wise, but this credit cannot be attributed to me alone."
Liu Yue smiled and looked at Emperor Sikong; "There is another person who is also extremely important."
At this moment.
A thin young man emerged from the Xuanwu Army. The mud on his face had been wiped away, revealing a handsome face with distinct features, bearing a three- or four-point resemblance to Emperor Sikong.
"Father, I have finally met you."
The thin boy knelt on the ground, "Your son pays respects to Your Majesty!"
"Si...Sikong Xi!"
Sikong Yu was closest to him.
The moment they saw Sikong Xi emerge, it was as if they had seen a ghost.
Even the Emperor Sikong was shocked.
The thin, frail-looking boy was none other than Sikong Xi, the former crown prince of Tianyan Kingdom!
Sikong Xi looked up and smiled at Sikong Yu: "Brother, it's been a long time. Did you miss me?"
Sikong Yu was startled. "How could you—"
He glanced at the Xuanwu Army around him, then swallowed back the words he was about to say.
