Chapter 13: All of You Attack Together, Thousands of Swords to Court!
The Beiyang Prince openly competing with the Prince for a woman showed utter disregard for the Taian Imperial Family. How arrogant, how bold!
The most critical point was that there had been no prior rumors indicating that the Prince desired the Saintess of Tianchi Holy Land. In contrast, the Prince had repeatedly sent people to request her, which meant the Prince’s act was purely a whim!
Realizing this, the Dragon Army felt stifled, and the people of Tiangang Holy Land were pale with extreme displeasure.
“Your Highness dares to act like this, are you not afraid of the Taian Imperial Family causing trouble?”
“Afraid of what… The Sword Emperor fought invincibly across the world, with countless enemies. Did he ever fear anyone?”
“Beiyang’s heritage is truly terrifying! It’s said that strong men abound in Tianjian City, no less than in Taian Imperial City.”
“Hmph, he’s just a spoiled brat riding on his father’s coattails. How much strength does he have himself?”
Discussion was rampant. For the overbearing and unreasonable Prince, people from Tiangang Holy Land and the Dragon Army were naturally unconvinced, thinking he only relied on his powerful backing. Without the Beiyang mountain behind him, what was he? The world respected the Sword Emperor, not some spoiled brat!
“Prince!” Long Ye strode forward, his voice like thunder.
“The Prince has a profound protector by his side, I dare not block him! But if today’s matter spreads, outsiders will mock the Prince for bullying and robbing by force!”
These words clearly implied that Lin Qi’an had no real strength and was only pretending to be powerful.
Hearing this, the Sword Guards’ killing intent soared, and the aura from the Netherworld became more intense.
“Prince, let us destroy them! A bunch of ants dare to criticize the Prince, they are courting death!”
Unexpectedly, Lin Qi’an raised his hand, signaling the Sword Guards to retreat.
“What does General Long propose?”
“If the Prince wants to convince the public, it’s simple! Please, Prince, personally defeat me, the leader of the Dragon Army!”
“He is also at the Heaven Dominion Realm. Considering the Prince’s exceptional talent and the Sword Emperor’s teachings, he should not be afraid.”
With a few words, Long Ye pushed Lin Qi’an into a corner. If Lin Qi’an did not fight today, he would be ridiculed throughout the Canglan Dao Domain for relying solely on Beiyang to seize women. If he fought, how could he defeat the battle-hardened leader of the Dragon Army with his broken sword bone?
“Dragon Army Leader, Xuande, requests guidance from the Prince!” Xuande stepped forward, a cold smile on his face.
“This is bad… They are goading the Prince into battle with words! What if the Prince loses?”
“If he loses, he has no right to be so overbearing, unless he doesn’t care about Beiyang’s reputation.”
“Your Highness, please do not fight…”
Behind him, the people of Tianchi Holy Land looked worried. They never doubted Beiyang’s overall strength, but the Prince had no notable battle achievements at such a young age, not even matching the Saint Son of Tiangang!
A few days ago, the Saint Son of Tiangang led a team to destroy a major sect, defeating its prodigies and killing thousands. Not to mention the experienced Dragon Army Leader, Xuande. Both were at the Heaven Dominion Realm, but their strengths could differ vastly, and clearly, the Prince was not a combatant.
“Bah! Who are you to challenge the Prince? Let me handle this,” a Sword Guard shouted angrily.
“Stand down.” Lin Qi’an stood in the air, his white clothes fluttering, his expression indifferent, exuding a transcendent calm.
“Xuande, bring your Dragon Army and Tiangang Holy Land, and attack together.”
Attack together?! Everyone thought Lin Qi’an was mad! There were probably over a thousand people below the Heaven Dominion Realm in the Dragon Army and Tiangang Holy Land combined!
Lin Qi’an wanted to fight a thousand people alone? If that wasn’t madness, what was it? In the entire Canglan Dao Domain, no prodigy dared to be so arrogant.
“This Prince has the Sword Emperor’s illness without the Sword Emperor’s strength…”
“Arrogance requires strength; he’s courting death!”
“After this battle, the Beiyang Prince will likely become a joke!”
At this moment, Ling Tian, who had escaped injured, was also hiding somewhere in Tianchi Holy Land, watching secretly.
“Relying on the Tianlang Immortal Dynasty and possessing countless resources, even a dog could rise to power. He hasn’t achieved anything, what a useless Prince!”
Even the Sword Guards beside him tried to persuade him.
“Your Highness, don’t…”
But Lin Qi’an ignored them.
“Fine, in that case, we will challenge the Prince together!” The Holy Son of Tiangang stepped out, his face showing a sinister smile.
Today’s battle would be the one that made his name famous in Canglan, using the Beiyang Prince as a stepping stone. It would feel fantastic, haha!
Nearly a thousand people simultaneously mobilized their spiritual energy. Instantly, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged, the wind and clouds changed color, and no birds were seen within a hundred miles.
The spiritual pressure like a tidal wave rushed towards Lin Qi’an. Lin Qi’an remained as still as a mountain. He raised his sword finger, pointing to the sky!
A terrifying aura of extreme sharpness spread upwards, slicing the incoming spiritual pressure into thousands of pieces. Not only that, but this aura spread across the sky, covering a hundred miles.
Divine Ability – Thousand Swords to Court!
