Chapter 168 – Second Prince (1/2)

Yang Ye’s expression changed when he saw this Spirit Realm expert had immediately launched an attack against him upon arriving here, and he didn’t have the time to think before he drew his sword and slashed.

The Spirit Realm expert grunted coldly and flicked Violet Spirit with his finger. A strand of enormous force came from his sword, causing Yang Ye’s arm to feel numb while the sword in his hand almost escaped his grasp.

However, this wasn’t the end of it!

After he flicked Yang Ye’s sword away, he clenched his hand into a fist and smashed it forcefully towards Yang Ye’s chest.

Before the fist could even arrive, the pressure of the gust created by it arrived. It caused Yang Ye’s clothes to stick tightly to his body, and it was even to the extent that a few threads of blood appeared on his face.

Yang Ye’s pupils constricted. This fellow’s strength is truly formidable.

He didn’t dare be careless. The profound energy within his body surged while he clenched his left hand into a fist, and then he smashed it towards the Spirit Realm expert’s fist.

Bang!

An enormous bang resounded. Yang Ye took five steps back while a wisp of fresh blood slowly seeped out from the corner of his mouth.

On the other hand, Yang Ye’s opponent, the Spirit Realm expert, took a step back instead!

The Spirit Realm expert didn’t continue attacking. He just gazed at Yang Ye with resentment, and besides resentment, there was a trace of surprise and fear in his eyes as well. Earlier, he hadn’t held back at all, so even though he hadn’t utilized a combat technique, it wasn’t something that a First Heaven Realm expert could resist head-on.

Who exactly is this young man?

Right at this moment, a member of the Imperial Guard walked over to the Spirit Realm expert and said, “Head Guard Huang, he’s a disciple from the Sword Sect that has come to partic.i.p.ate in the Ascension Rankings, and he’s a Talisman Master as well….”

When he heard the last few words, Head Guard Huang’s eyelids twitched. He’s actually a Talisman Master!

“Why did you kill my younger brother!” Head Guard Huang took a deep breath before he asked with a deep voice. Even though he wished for nothing more than to kill this young man that stood before him, but reason told him that he couldn’t. Because if he killed a Talisman Master on the streets, then he would definitely suffer the revenge of the Talisman Master’s a.s.sociation.

The revenge of the Talisman Master’s a.s.sociation wasn’t something that a tiny Head of the Guard like him could endure!

Right when Yang Ye intended to say something, a carriage suddenly traveled over slowly.

The expressions of everyone in the surroundings turned solemn upon laying eyes on the carries. The horses that pulled the carriage were Wind Riders, and the carriage had four lifelike golden dragons carved on it….

IN the Imperial Capital, only the Imperial Household of the Grand Qin Empire dared to inscribe dragons on their carriages….

“What happened here!?” A voice slowly sounded out from within the carriage.

Head Guard Huang went over to the carriage and bowed respectfully before he said, “Second Prince, my young brother was killed on the streets by this fellow. He’s a Talisman Master!”

“He killed the Imperial Guards of my Empire on the streets?” The door to the carriage was slowly opened, and then a young man around the age of 20 who wore a yellow robe which was embroidered with a dragon walked out from within it. The young man glanced at the corpse of Commander Huang that laid on the ground, and then he looked at Yang Ye and said, “I heard in the past that Talisman Masters are extremely arrogant, yet I never expected I would witness it today. Who gave you the gall and authority to kill the members of my Empire’s Imperial Guard?”

“I heard in the past as well that the Imperial Guards of the Empire are extremely arrogant!” Yang Ye looked the young man in the eye and said, “Now I’ve truly experienced it. Who gave the Imperial Guards the authority and gall to kill a Talisman Master? Was it your Imperial Household?” If the young man spoke reasonably with him, then he would be reasonable as well. Obviously, the young man wasn’t prepared to do so, so he would naturally not be stupid enough to try!

“Does your gall and confidence come from the Talisman Master’s a.s.sociation?” The young man gazed at Yang Ye and said, “If it is, then allow me to tell you that the ident.i.ty of being a Talisman Master wouldn’t be able to save you. Let me see if the Talisman Master’s a.s.sociation would take revenge after I kill a Talisman Master today!”

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man gazed at Head Guard Huang and said, “Kill him. I’ll bear responsibility for everything!”

When they heard the young man, the gazes of all the guards in the surroundings burned with fervor as they looked at him. These guards hadn’t expected that the Second Prince would actually offend a Talisman Master for them. Especially Head Guard Huang, his eyes were filled with grat.i.tude….

The young man nodded slightly when he saw the gazes of the guards in the surroundings because it was really worth it to obtain their support by killing a Talisman Master. As for the Talisman Master’s a.s.sociation… he had his contacts there, and those people could deal with the repercussions of killing a tiny Grade Four Talisman Master!

Head Guard Huang walked slowly towards Yang Ye, and he said as he walked, “Don’t worry, I won’t let you die so quickly. Didn’t you want to stand up for those lowly mercenaries? I’ll let you watch as I kill them. Especially that beauty. Don’t you worry, the hundreds of brothers I have in the guard will take very good ‘care’ of her!”

“Don’t worry, you’ll be reunited with your younger brother very soon!” Yang Ye gazed at Head Guard Huang while the profound energy within his body surged madly, and the Pearl of Baleful Blood started circulating madly.

At this moment, he’d decided that he would kill this Spirit Realm expert even if he had to expose the pearl.
