“This Xiao Yun is extremely evil. Not only did he harm the Ninth Prince, but he even injured us,” the elders spoke out “Your Majesty, please uphold justice for us!”

Hearing these people’s words, Xiao Yun deeply frowned, his expression darkening. However, he did not say anything, and just stared at Yuan Lin and Emperor Feng.

In front of these experts, saying anything was unnecessary. What was important was why they had come. If they had come to save the Ninth Prince and the others, it would be useless even if he was in the right. As such, Xiao Yun remained silent.

Emperor Feng calmly looked at the injured elders, then looked at Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun remained calm, meeting Emperor Feng’s gaze steadily.

“You’re Xiao Yun?” Emperor Feng asked in slight surprise. He slightly narrowed his eyes as his tone became gentler, and even a rare hint of a smile appeared on his face.

“Mm,” Xiao Yun nodded.

“What’s His Majesty doing?” Hearing Emperor Feng’s tone, the Imperial Clan’s people felt incredibly shocked.

“Haha, a young hero indeed. To be able to defeat so many of my clan’s True Essence realm cultivators at such a young age is very impressive!” Emperor Feng smiled as he said, “We have already heard about your matter. Don’t worry – tell me your side of the story. We will not be prejudicial in any way.”

“Imperial Father!” the Ninth Prince cried out with a frown. Emperor Feng’s att.i.tude caused him to feel incredibly confused.

Xiao Yun also felt quite surprised; he wasn’t sure what the Emperor was up to. However, as he thought to himself, Yuan Lin gave him a slight nod, as if he was saying that Xiao Yun could trust the Emperor.

After a moment of hesitation, Xiao Yun told the Emperor of everything that had transpired. Hearing this, Emperor Feng’s expression became unsightly.

“You disgrace! How could you be blinded by greed and attack young sir Xiao?” Hearing this, Yuan Lin’s expression darkened as he glared at Yuan Xiao, chiding, “He’s our Yuan family’s benefactor! Don’t you know that doing this will cause the world to think that our Yuan family are all selfish traitors?”

“Eldest Uncle, I just wanted to obtain that pill refining technique,” Yuan Xiao cried. “As long as I can obtain that pill refining technique, I’ll be able to contribute to the family. When that time comes, we won’t have to rely on him anymore. Eldest Uncle, hurry and help capture him.”

“You disgrace!” Yuan Lin said coldly. “Our Cloudsea Merchant Alliance values trustworthiness the most – how can we do such a thing?”

Hearing Yuan Lin’s words, Xiao Yun felt quite surprised.

“Eldest Uncle…” Yuan Xiao stared, not understanding why his eldest uncle would be like this.

“Your Majesty, what do you think we should do?” Yuan Lin’s asked as his expression darkened, and he looked over to Emperor Feng.

“Zhu’Er, is what young sir Xiao said the truth?” Emperor Feng looked calm as he spoke with a trace of coldness.

“Imperial Father, this Xiao Yun is merely the descendant of an ordinary family, but suddenly rose to fame half a year ago. He definitely obtained an expert’s legacy. Otherwise, how could he have such extraordinary spiritual feats? If I obtained his legacy, I would definitely make our Imperial Clan more powerful,” the Ninth Prince said as he bowed. “Since Imperial Father has come, it is only natural that you should have the final say.” What the Ninth Prince was trying to say was that Emperor Feng should decide who should have the legacy.

“So you really did ambush young sir Xiao?” Emperor Feng asked with a cold gaze.

“What do you mean, Imperial father?” The Ninth Prince’s heart thumped, and the elders by his side also felt that something was off.

Whoos.h.!.+

Suddenly, the Ninth Prince saw a light flash as a gigantic hand pierced through the air towards him.

A terrifying aura descended, causing the Ninth Prince’s heart to be struck with fear. Evidently, Emperor Feng had attacked him.

“No… Imperial Father!!” The Ninth Prince’s pupils contracted, revealing an expression of confusion as he cried out.

Not too far away, the Twelfth Imperial Uncle also stared in shock, but did not dare to do anything.

Bang!

A light flashed and a m.u.f.fled explosion sounded out as the Ninth Prince was sent flying, coughing out blood.

As the Ninth Prince landed on the ground, his aura dissipated, turning him into an ordinary person.

“His dantian was destroyed?” The Imperial Clan’s elders were all completely shocked. What was going on? Emperor Feng had actually crippled the Ninth Prince for an outsider. The Ninth Prince was his own son! Everyone present felt incredibly dumbfounded – even if a Prince committed a grave sin, his punishment shouldn’t be so severe!

“Why, Imperial Father?” The Ninth Prince struggled to raise his head to look at Emperor Feng, with blood still leaking out of his mouth.

“You unworthy son. As a Prince, you actually ambushed a commoner and wanted to steal his treasures. Our Imperial Clan has lost all face because of you. Why don’t you learn from your Imperial Brothers and work hard? Your Seventh Imperial Brother is only one year older than you, but he’s already half a step into the Essence Core realm,” Emperor Feng said severely. “Look at what you’ve all done. And you still dare to call yourselves part of the Imperial Clan?”

Hearing Emperor Feng’s furious tone, none of the elders dared to say anything.

“Imperial Brother, isn’t this a bit too excessive?” the Twelfth Imperial Uncle said in a low voice.

“Old Twelfth, as a senior, you shouldn’t be interfering in this.” Emperor Feng’s gaze became cold as he waved his hand, sending out a terrifying wave of Essence Qi and destroying the dantian of the other elders.

“Take them away,” Emperor Feng said, full of might. “Feng Zhu is to face the wall and ponder about his misdeeds, and is not to leave the palace.”

“Yes!” The Twelfth Imperial Uncle sighed. With a slight motion of his hand, a wave of Essence Qi lifted up the Ninth Prince and the elders, bringing them away with him. Since this was Emperor Feng’s decision, even the Twelfth Imperial Uncle could not say anything.

After all, Emperor Feng was the sovereign of the Moonwind Kingdom. Who dared to disobey them?

After the people from the Imperial Clan departed, only Yuan Xiao was left.

Even though Yuan Xiao’s cultivation had already been crippled, he couldn’t help but tremble.

“Eldest Uncle.” Yuan Xiao looked up at Yuan Lin in the air in terror.

“You acted maliciously against our Yuan family’s benefactor out of greed, causing our Yuan family to lose all face. From now on, you are no longer part of our Yuan family,” Yuan Lin said coldly. “This will be announced publicly soon, and even your father will not be able to protect you. Furthermore, you will never receive any resources from the Yuan family again.”

“No!!” Yuan Xiao screamed, his mind going blank, unable to accept this. Even Xiao Yun felt that this was quite strange – Emperor Feng and Yuan Lin had completely acted out of his expectations.

After all, Yuan Xiao wanting to take his pill refining techniques would greatly benefit the Yuan family, and Emperor Feng crippling his own son was even more surprising.

“Could it be that they want something from me?” Xiao Yun thought to himself. Apart from this, Xiao Yun could not come up with any other explanation.

“Xiao Yun, this old man did not know about this until it was too late. I hope you can be understanding and forgive us,” Yuan Lin said as he gave an embarra.s.sed smile.

“As long as this was not Elder Yuan’s plan, I don’t mind letting it go,” Xiao Yun said calmly. Since these elders had already taken a great step back, he shouldn’t push things too far. After all, Yuan Lin was an Essence Core realm cultivator. Right now, he could only accept things as they were, and had no right to demand anything else.

This was because the difference in their strength was simply too great – the Essence Core realm was too powerful.

“Haha, young sir Xiao, my disgraceful son is stubborn and selfish. If he offended you in any way, please forgive him,” Emperor Feng said to Xiao Yun as he walked over on the air. Emperor Feng’s att.i.tude completely shocked Xiao Yun.

“Surely he has something he wants from me,” Xiao Yun thought to himself.

“I greet Your Majesty.” Despite feeling incredibly confused, Xiao Yun bowed in respect towards Emperor Feng. Just from Emperor’s aura, Xiao Yun could feel that his power was boundless as the sea, and that he was much stronger than Yuan Lin.

In fact, there was a great gap between them. This Emperor Feng was an absolute expert.

“No need to be so courteous.” Emperor Feng landed beside Xiao Yun, glancing towards Yiyi and the Heaven-Devouring Sparrow.

However, Emperor Feng quickly looked away, as if he was afraid that the youth would misunderstand. Seeing how Emperor Feng was acting, Xiao Yun was sure that he wanted to ask something of him.

“I wonder if Emperor Feng has anything that Xiao Yun can be of a.s.sistance with?” Xiao Yun directly asked.

“Haha, you’re indeed a straightforward person,” Emperor Feng laughed. “We indeed came here to ask something of you.”

“Please tell me, Your Majesty.”

“I heard from Old Yuan that your talent is unparalleled, and that you refined a medicinal pill to cure Miss Yuan’s poison. Is this true?” Emperor Feng asked.

“That did indeed happen.” Hearing these words, Xiao Yun concluded that Emperor Feng most likely wanted him to cure some sort of illness.

“Haha, our daughter has been ill since a few years ago, and to date, no one has been able to cure her. Can we trouble young sir Xiao to come with us to the palace?” There was a smile within Emperor Feng’s narrowed eyes as he said, “Don’t worry, regardless of whether you can heal our daughter or not, we will not mistreat you. After all, geniuses like you are much too rare, and we hope to see you grow and develop.”

“Go to the palace?” Xiao Yun frowned, thinking to himself. Even though Emperor Feng’s words sounded quite pleasant, once he entered the palace, who knew what could happen? However, if he did not agree, he would have no way out.

This Emperor Feng was far too powerful. The formless pressure that he gave off caused Xiao Yun’s heart to thump and for him to feel incredibly powerless.

“Emperor Feng is a just man, and is extremely magnanimous. Why doesn’t young sir Xiao take a trip to the palace? The Imperial Clan has collected many spiritual gra.s.ses, and perhaps they have what you need,” Yuan Lin calmly smiled, encouraging Xiao Yun to go.

“Mm,” Emperor Feng nodded, “If young sir Xiao needs anything, all you need to do is ask.”

“Since Your Majesty has invited me, I’ll humbly accept this invitation,” Xiao Yun said as he bowed and cupped his hands in respect.

This Emperor Feng had crippled his own son’s cultivation for him, showing how much he valued him. If he failed to appreciate this kindness, no matter how good-natured Emperor Feng was, he would most likely become infuriated. After all, with Emperor Feng’s strength, he could easily force Xiao Yun to go with him.

“Haha, we’ll have to trouble young sir Xiao then,” Emperor Feng laughed, feeling quite pleased. He waved his hand and a light flashed, covering Xiao Yun and Yiyi and bringing them into the air. In order so that Xiao Yun could be at ease, Yuan Lin also went with them.

The Heaven-Devouring Sparrow’s body flashed with light, entering back into Xiao Yun’s body.

The large palace was within the depths of the Imperial City. From above, anyone who saw it would feel as if it was a divine phoenix spreading its wings. It was a pity that the aura that this phoenix gave off wasn’t very powerful.

Xiao Yun looked down from the air, and seeing this majestic palace, his heart trembled.

This was an awesome sight: there were buildings and palaces everywhere, creating a dazzling sight. Each hall was created meticulously, giving off a mysterious and boundless feeling. There were also mysterious ripples emanated out from the depths of the palace. Those ripples gave off the feeling that there was a divine beast sleeping within.
