Chapter 13 This matter, the Emperor really has you cornered!



"Thank you for your generous gift, Your Highness."

Guo Jingfei thanked him with a grateful expression.

This is a real storage ring!

Although he had become a martial artist at the Enlightenment Realm, he didn't actually possess a single low-grade magic weapon or armor, let alone a storage ring, which was far more valuable than magic weapons of the same level.

"This is nothing. I will give each of you a high-grade magic artifact storage ring later."

"In addition, I will have someone prepare high-grade magic weapon-level weapons and armor for you."

Li Jing waved his hand and said.

Although Guo Jingfei and Zhao Li have only just reached the Enlightenment Realm, they have now switched to cultivating truly peerless martial arts and have sufficient resources. It won't be long before they reach the Golden Core Realm, or even the Primordial Spirit Realm.

It is only right to prepare high-quality magical artifacts for them in advance.

"Thank you, Your Highness."

Guo Jingfei and Zhao Li said with tears of gratitude.

Li Jing smiled calmly and walked towards the lakeside pavilion.

After watching Li Jing leave, Guo Jingfei summoned the guards of the Ninth Prince's residence to help Zhao Li send all the pills into the storeroom. He also took out some resources from the storeroom and then rode a warhorse straight towards the Imperial Guard camp.

The Imperial Guards were not stationed in the Imperial City of Yanjing, but directly within the Imperial Palace of Yanjing.

This is because the guards responsible for the safety of the imperial palace are different from the guards protecting the capital.

The garrison that guarded the capital was called the Jingying, which was stationed in the imperial city of Yanjing.

After a while.

Zhao Li then appeared outside the pavilion and respectfully addressed Li Jing, who was standing inside with his hands behind his back, saying, "Your Highness, the Second Prince has come to pay his respects."

"Li Yu?"

Li Jing said calmly, "Send someone to invite him over."

"yes."

Zhao Li responded and nodded to a guard not far away.

The guard bowed and then used his light-footed skill to leave.

Zhao Li then stood behind Li Jing.

The main gate of the Ninth Prince's residence.

"Your Highness, the Ninth Prince is far too disrespectful to you, making you wait here at the gate."

Zhao Chengyu, the steward of the Second Prince's residence, frowned and whispered to the Second Prince, Li Yu.

Li Yu said in a deep voice, "Don't cause trouble. Don't forget the purpose of our visit."

"Yes, this old servant dares not."

Zhao Chengyu said with a look of fear.

Soon, a guard used his lightness skill to arrive in front of Li Yu, bowed to him and said, "Your Highness, please come in. My master has been waiting for you inside for quite some time."

A cold glint flashed in Li Yu's eyes as he strode towards the Ninth Prince's residence.

He had assumed that the Ninth Prince, Li Jing, would personally come out to greet him upon his arrival.

To everyone's surprise, Li Jing didn't come at all, and only sent a small guard to greet them. They didn't even see Zhao Li, the steward of the Ninth Prince's residence.

What blatant disrespect this is to Li Yu!

Upon entering the Ninth Prince's residence, Li Yu and his companion arrived outside the pavilion, led by guards.

Once outside the pavilion, the guard stepped aside.

"Little Jiu, Little Jiu, you're not even willing to come out and greet your second brother when he comes to visit?"

Li Yu glared angrily at Li Jing, who was still facing away from him even after Li Yu arrived, and spoke angrily.

"You're the one who instigated Li Xu, that idiot, to cause trouble here, aren't you?"

Li Jing said calmly.

Li Yu's expression changed slightly, and he said, "Xiao Jiu, what do you mean?"

"Don't you understand what I mean?"

"With that idiot Li Xu, why would he want my support for no reason if no one instigated him?"

“And you arrived just as he disappeared.”

Isn't that a coincidence?

Li Jing turned around, looked at Li Yu with a half-smile, and said, "You've come here now just to threaten me."

If we don't support you, will you spread this around?

The thing you're smarter than Li Xu about is that you came to visit my residence in public.

If you disappear, everyone will guess that something is wrong with me.

You're taking advantage of me, thinking I won't dare do anything to you.

"Interesting, very interesting, Xiao Jiu. It seems I underestimated you."

"You're right!"

"I was the one who instigated it."

"Tsk tsk, everyone has misjudged you. You, who have always been incredibly low-key and never competed for anything, are actually the real wolf in sheep's clothing."

Li Yu said with a look of amazement.

"However, now that Xiao Qi has disappeared from your residence, I, your royal brother, am truly convinced that you've got me cornered!"

You now only have two paths to take.

After a pause, Li Yu changed the subject and said, "Either submit to me, or I will spread this matter."

"Believe it or not, once Father Emperor finds out about this, even if he's in seclusion, he'll come out and execute you, his rebellious and fratricidal son!"

“Kill him.”

Li Jing smiled slightly and said.

"..."

Li Yu and Zhao Chengyu looked at Li Jing with astonishment. How dare he?

How dare he say such a thing?

Has he gone mad?

Is he really not afraid of his father at all?

Li Yu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine, his scalp tingle, his hair stand on end, and his back go cold. How could he have provoked a madman like Li Jing?!
