Chapter 111: Leaping Across the Air

Chapter 111: Leaping Across the Air

It was a sunny day with a gentle breeze in the southern suburbs of Great Xias empire.

People from all walks of life were gathered here, from scions of nobles and officials to vendors and normal civilians, leaving the rest of the capital empty. Today, Great Xia and Chillwater were going to hold a joint military exercise.

There were too many people gathered in the area, so Great Xias emperor ordered the soldiers to demarcate a line to keep the crowd from the area used for the military exercise.

The emperor and his officials were seated on chairs atop a constructed platform.

Ji Lengyue was present too, and not too far away from him were Guhe, Longdu, and Yizhous envoys. Those three envoys spared no effort to fawn on Ji Lengyue, paying little heed to Great Xias emperor.

Ji Congyun and Immortal Zuo were sitting next to Ji Lengyue. The crowd was curious who they were as they didnt reveal their identities, but no one dared to ask it aloud.

Fang Chen, Fang Cangyou, and Li Daoye were seated together. The atmosphere on their side was light-hearted, and they would occasionally chat and smile.

Xia Yu eyed Fang Chen with a triumphant smile. When he heard that Xia Ji was dead, he was so overjoyed that he drank himself silly. This was the best news he had received in recent days. With Xia Ji gone, he had no other competitors over his position as the crown prince!

Li Daoye from grade-6 Infernoblaze? Hmph! Xia Yu looked at Li Daoye with a glint in his eyes. So what if youre a cultivator? Youll be my stepping stone today, the first knife Ill plunge toward Chillwater!

Another person had his eyes on Li DaoyeImmortal Zuo.

It was always a struggle to obtain cultivation resources. It was rare for him to stumble upon a relatively weak sect disciple in this remote location. To him, Li Daoye looked like a feast waiting to be dug into.

That fellow has been staring at me, young master Fang. Youre right. Even though Li Daoye didnt look at Immortal Zuo, he still keenly sensed that the latter was eyeing him, and his face turned awful.

Its fine. Fang Chen chuckled. Dont be afraid. You're not the prey today.

Li Daoye nodded. He wasnt too worried as Fang Chen was here. The other party might be a sixth stage Ki Refinement cultivator, but he would still collapse when faced with the devastating prowess of the Purple Lightning Talisman.

Lord Ji, Id like to invite you to our Guhe after this military exercise. We recently found a few more new mines, and itd be best if Lord Ji can offer us some pointers about it. Guhes envoy was bootlicking so much that Great Xias officials couldnt watch on.

Longdu and Yizhou refused to back down either. They also extended invitations to Ji Lengyue to visit their countries after the military exercise.

The other ladies from the Great Xia River were here too, and the gathering of these ladies created quite a spectacle.

Fang Chen had become their idol ever since he killed Marquess Xianyu on the Great Xia River. Upon learning that their idol was going to participate in a military exercise against Chillwater, they were determined to come and support him.

The admiration they harbored toward Fang Chen induced the envy of nearby young masters.

Jade Fairy, War God Fang is strong, but hes lacking compared to Chillwater. Youre setting yourself up for disappointment. A dashing young scion clasped his fist toward Jade Fairy.

Oh? I dont think so, Jade Fairy glanced at him before replying placidly.

Jade Fairy talked to me! The young scion was excited. His group of friends regretted not taking the initiative earlier, or else they could have been the ones talking to Jade Fairy instead.

The young scion suppressed his glee and spoke with feigned composure, Jade Fairy, its not that I want to make light of War God Fang, but Chillwaters Nightmare Knights are formidable, not to mention Chillwaters Lord Ji Lengyue has reached Earth Profound. I fear War God Fang doesnt stand

He couldnt continue speaking as Jade Fairy had turned to look at Fang Chen. She had no intention of engaging with him at all!

The young scion had no choice but to back off with an awkward smile. Just wait! Youll see that Im right very soon.

The hundred Nightmare Knights stood imposingly on the field on horseback. All of them were looking at Ji Lengyue.

With a faint chuckle, Ji Lengyue leaped across the air, covering a distance of over fifty meters. Under the radiant sunlight, his silhouette looked almost like an immortals. He landed lightly on one of the steeds, and the steed neighed loudly.

H-he covered fifty meters with a single jump?!

Not even Ki Manifestation martial artists are able to move like that

How are the Fang Manors guards supposed to go against something like that?

Its no wonder they are a superior state. Our Great Xia has been founded for over centuries now, but we still pale in comparison.

Both the surrounding civilians and officials were shocked by Ji Lengyues movement skill. All of them instinctively turned to Fang Chen.
