Chapter 9: Sorry to Disappoint Your Father

You have disappointed my father.

Celestial Xiaos eyes turned cold. She glanced at the Wolf Armys leader, and the Human Profound third stage Ki Control expert immediately aimed his arrow at Fang Chen.

Fang Chen raised his hand and activated his Purple Lightning Talisman. A terrifying bolt of lightning flashed across the crowds eyes and reduced the Wolf Armys leader into cinders. Even the soldiers around him were caught in the fray and burned to crisp too.

This sight astounded the crowd.

What terrifying means is that?! Didnt they say that Fang Chen has lost his martial cultivation and is now a cripple? Why does he possess terrifying means to destroy even a Ki Control expert instantly?

Thats impossible You Longchang stared at Fang Chen in absolute terror.This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

W-War God Fang didnt lose his martial cultivation?! an official blurted out.

Spirit slowly returned to the dull eyes of the officials, as they looked at one another excitedly. Their shoulders began trembling uncontrollably.

A shudder ran through Li Guozhus body. As he stared at Fang Chen, tears began falling from his eyes as he muttered, Theres hope for Great Xia

The emperor stared at Fang Chen with flickering eyes. In the end, he clasped his mouth, as his eyes turned red.

Your martial cultivation Celestial Xiaos face turned pale.

Sorry to disappoint your father. My martial cultivation isnt crippled. Fang Chen opened his grayish-white eyes and looked at Celestial Xiao. My eyes can no longer see, but it doesnt hinder me from leading an army onto the battlefield.

You held it in for five years For what? Celestial Xiao couldnt believe it. There was a short pause before she roared, Kill him!

Some of the Wolf Armys soldiers drew their bow, whereas the others charged at Fang Chen. Their murderous intent overflowed, filling the surroundings with bloodthirst.

A few more lightning bolts crashed down, reducing the soldiers charging at Fang Chen into cinders. Those who had aimed their arrows at Fang Chen found their fingers trembling in fright.

Your father spared my life back then. Ill spare yours today. Take your men and leave, Fang Chen placidly said.

He had already used five of the Purple Lightning Talismans, and the remaining five wouldnt be enough to destroy the remaining Wolf Armys soldiers. His empty bluff would be revealed if the enemy insisted on fighting to the end,

I met a daoist last year who imparted to me a method to condition my body. I didnt think much about it at the start, but to my surprise, I regained my martial cultivation. At the same time, I grasped a martial art called Purple Lightning Palm, Fang Chen clasped his fist and replied.

A daoist?! Where is the daoist now? The emperor suddenly rose to his feet in agitation.

I have only met him once. He has likely wandered elsewhere by now, Fang Chen replied.

What a pity. Direct him to me if you meet him again. I have always been interested in daoist arts, the emperor said.

He paused for a moment before getting to the main topic at hand. This time, I was forced to betroth you to the Xiao Clan for the survival of our Great Xia. Its good news you have regained your martial cultivation. Wolf Marshall Xiao would be intimidated and think twice before attacking us for the time being.

He looked at Fang Chen with an intense gaze. You dont blame me, right?

Your Majesty, I understand your difficulties. Its all for Great Xias countless civilians. If I had not regained my martial cultivation, I would have followed Fairy Xia to Greenpine Country, Fang Chen replied with a clasped fist.

Its good that you understand. I reckon youll have to rest since you have only just regained your martial cultivation. Dont move around too much for now and recuperate in your manor, all right? the emperor said.

Yes, Your Majesty, Fang Chen replied with a nod.

The emperor took in Fang Chens expression before smiling. You may leave now.

Fang Chen stepped out of the Imperial Library, and Eunuch You walked him out. Along the way, they stumbled upon a group of people. The person leading the group had a perfect complexion reminiscent of jade, and he wore a dignified purple robe that exuded regality.

Your Highness?! Eunuch You was alarmed. He quickly halted his footsteps and bowed.

The person dressed in purple was none other than the incumbent crown prince, but he wasnt the offspring of the empress but Noble Consort Hua.

I heard War God Fang has regained his martial cultivation and was overjoyed, so I came here to pay you a visit. Paying no heed to Eunuch You, the crown prince walked up to Fang Chen, clasped his fist, and bowed. However, there was coldness in his eyes as he assessed Fang Chen.

Your Highness, it has been a long time since we met, but Im exhausted. Id like to return to my manor and rest. Lets catch up next time, Fang Chen replied with a smile before walking off.

The crown prince was taken aback. He looked at Fang Chens departing figure with a livid face. A moment later, a vicious glint flashed across his eyes, and he murmured, Investigate the people whom Fang Chen has come into contact with in the past five years. I want to know how he regained his martial cultivation!

Yes, Your Highness!
