"Yes, this old servant obeys."
Zhao Li said with a respectful expression.
"No, Xiao Jiu, don't kill me! We're brothers, we're blood relatives..."
The eldest prince, Li Hao, called out to Li Jing's retreating figure with a look of panic, and stumbled after him.
"Your Highness, this old servant will see you off on your journey."
With a slight movement, Zhao Li blocked the way in front of the eldest prince, Li Hao, and said with a smile.
"You dog eunuch, I'm Xiao Jiu's older brother! You dare to touch me?"
"Xiao Jiu, please forgive me, I'll never dare to do it again..."
The eldest prince, Li Hao, angrily rebuked Zhao Li, shouting towards the ninth prince's residence with tears and snot streaming down his face.
Zhao Li shook his head. "Now you know you're His Highness's older brother?"
He raised his right hand and struck the First Prince Li Hao in the chest.
Bang!
The eldest prince, Li Hao, was sent flying backwards, landing on the ground where he twitched a few times before becoming motionless.
"Clean this place up and tell Commander Guo to go to the First Prince's residence and confiscate his property."
Zhao Li clapped his hands and addressed the guards at the main gate of the Ninth Prince's residence.
"yes."
The guards of the Ninth Prince's residence responded, some clearing the ground and others going inside to inform Guo Jingfei.
On the distant rooftops, cultivators at the Golden Core, Nascent Soul, and even Divine Transformation levels all wore expressions of surprise and doubt. Li Jing was the ninth prince of the Yan Kingdom, not some peerless genius cultivated by a holy land.
How could such a prodigy be born in a mortal dynasty?
One by one, the experts from various sects left with doubts. After returning, they either sent people to investigate or sent people to the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion to try to buy information about Li Jing.
However, when these people arrived at the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion, they only managed to purchase information about Li Jing's progress in the first stage of the Golden Core Realm.
There was no mention whatsoever of Li Jing reaching the Nascent Soul Realm.
On this point, they did not doubt the intentions of the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, but rather felt that Li Jing was too well hidden, even managing to deceive the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion.
The next day.
The Ninth Prince's Residence.
Two figures appeared in the Ninth Prince's residence.
The two figures were Qian Sanqian and the Grand Elder of Wanbaoge, a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm.
Given the importance of this Wanbao Auction, it was inevitable that the Wanbao Pavilion headquarters would send a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator to oversee the event.
"Elder Sun, His Highness is already waiting for us in the pavilion."
Upon entering the Ninth Prince's residence, Qian Sanqian said something to Sun Wanchun, the head of the Wanbaoge Pavilion, and then walked towards the pavilion of the Ninth Prince's residence.
Sun Wanchun nodded. He had come on behalf of Mu Yunfei, the Supreme Elder of Wanbaoge, to personally assess Li Jing's strength.
Let's see if it's really as Qian Sanqian said.
Before long, Qian Sanqian brought Sun Wanchun to the outside of the pavilion and bowed respectfully to Li Jing inside, saying, "Qian Sanqian greets Your Highness."
"Elder Sun Wanchun of Wanbaoge greets Your Highness."
Sun Wanchun also bowed to Li Jing.
He couldn't possibly be unaware that Li Jing had killed Elder Jiang Yuanlong of the Xuantian Sect with a single sword strike yesterday.
He already knew that Li Jing was a true prodigy.
What he wanted to confirm was whether Li Jing's sword intent had truly reached its peak.
Therefore, this elder of the Wanbaoge at the Nascent Soul stage did not put on airs in front of Li Jing.
"No need for such formalities."
Li Jing turned around and spoke to Sun Wanchun and Qian Sanqian.
"Thank you, Your Highness."
Sun Wanchun thanked Qian Sanqian.
"Elder Sun, are you here on behalf of Wanbao Pavilion to confirm my strength?"
Li Jing smiled calmly and looked at Sun Wanchun.
Sun Wanchun said with a frank expression, "That's right. I'm here on behalf of the Supreme Elder of Wanbaoge and the Grand Master of Wanbaoge to confirm this."
Is this sword intent enough?
A burst of sword intent erupted from Li Jing, enveloping Sun Wanchun.
Although Qian Sanqian was right next to Sun Wanchun, he could only feel that the sword intent was incredibly terrifying, but he did not feel a chill down his spine or any other sensation.
What does this tell us?
Perfect control over sword intent!
Qian Sanqian had a hunch that Li Jing's sword intent might be more than just a mastery level!
"...Enough!"
Sun Wanchun said, his throat dry.
Li Jing withdrew his sword intent and sat down on a stone bench.
"Sun Wanchun greets Your Highness!"
Sun Wanchun knelt down before Li Jing, his face filled with excitement.
"Qian Sanqian greets Your Highness."
Qian Sanqian also knelt down before Li Jing, his voice trembling as he spoke.
From the moment Elder Sun Wanchun, a Nascent Soul Realm expert, knelt down, Qian Sanqian knew that this meant the entire Wanbao Pavilion had submitted to Li Jing.
As the first person to come into contact with Li Jing, his contribution was absolutely enormous.
This time, he is bound to be truly valued by Wanbaoge!
No need for formalities.
Li Jing waved his hand and said to Sun Wanchun and Qian Sanqian, "Elder Sun, if you have any questions, you can ask them."
Now that you have submitted to me on behalf of the entire Wanbaoge, you are one of us.
"Your Highness, we, Wanbaoge, have come to follow you and join your ranks. What will our role be from now on?"
After a moment's consideration, Sun Wanchun asked Li Jing.
Qian Sanqian also looked at Li Jing with curiosity, wanting to know what the Wanbaoge's position was in the Qiyun Dynasty.
