Chapter 967: Retreat, lose face
Xiao Tianyao wanted to leave the Central Empire, but the great noble families did not want him to leave so soon or selfishly hoped that he would stay in the Central Empire forever.
Xiao Tianyao's people were in the Central Empire and had no background or influence. They have plenty of opportunities to win over him, but when he leaves, how can they win over him?
All great noble families were trying their best to keep Xiao Tianyao, but no matter what they did, they couldn't make the Emperor change his mind, let alone Xiao Tianyao's decision.
"Prince Xiao is too arrogant." Except for the Dongyang family and the Lin family, people from the Beitang, Nanrong, Xiling, Hua, and Tang families all went to find Xiao Tianyao and persuade him to change his mind and give up fighting against three enemies.
They repeatedly stated that as long as Xiao Tianyao gave up voluntarily, they could go into the palace to speak for him. Xiao Tianyao did not say anything, but they were all rejected.
He proposed to fight one against three because he didn't want to owe the great noble families any favors. How could he let them speak for him?
The eldest prince’s reminder was still vivid in his mind. Even if he was not afraid of the seven great noble families of the Central Empire, he did not want to have any interaction with them.
His future battle plan did not lie in the Central Empire, and there was no need to be too close to the seven great noble families.
The aristocratic family also has the pride of an aristocratic family. They have lowered their status by taking the initiative to see Xiao Tianyao, but Xiao Tianyao didn't give them any face. The Beitang Family felt that they had lost face and were dissatisfied with Xiao Tianyao.
"I want to see if he can fight one against three, and if he can get out of the Central Empire."
The Emperor's thoughts were not difficult to guess, and people from several great noble families could guess it. They don't believe that Xiao Tianyao can't guess it, but Xiao Tianyao insists on dying, and they can't stop him even if they want to.
"What a pity for a genius." People from several great noble families shook their heads, looking regretful. But how many of them were sorry?
Who knows about other people, but at least the Dongyang Family will not feel sorry for Xiao Tianyao. The Dongyang Family even felt a little happy when they got the news.
"Xiao Tianyao will die this time. Once he dies, Lin Chujiu will have no one to protect her." The Emperor will not let Xiao Tianyao go. No matter whether Xiao Tianyao can defeat the Central Empire's supreme martial god, he will only have one end and that is death.
Young Master Dongyang nodded gently without saying a word......
Three days passed by in a flash. In these three days, countless people came to persuade Xiao Tianyao to give up challenging the three super martial arts saints.
Even the eldest prince in the temple outside the city sent people to persuade Xiao Tianyao to give up, but Xiao Tianyao still did not change his mind.
He had his plan, and he was more than 90% sure. He will not compromise easily with anyone, even if some of them have no ill intentions.
When three days were up, Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu, accompanied by the elders of the Martial God Mountain, came to the imperial palace to settle the affairs of the Central Empire.
In the palace, the headmaster and young masters of the seven great noble families were present. Except for the eldest prince, the other six princes were all there, and they arrived earlier than Xiao Tianyao.
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu arrived just a little earlier than the Emperor. They had just entered, but before they had time to accept the baptism of everyone's eyes, they heard the eunuch shout: "The Emperor has arrived!"
Xiao Tianyao and Lin Chujiu were both people who were aware of current affairs. When they heard the announcement, they immediately stepped aside, their breaths were slightly suppressed, and they stood in the crowd just like ordinary people.
The Emperor, surrounded by guards and palace maids, walked on the red carpet to the throne. As soon as he sat down, he asked, "Where is Prince Xiao of the East?"
“I’m here!” Xiao Tianyao stepped forward and stood in the center of the hall.
In an instant, everyone's eyes fell on him, with admiration, disdain, envy, and contempt. Lin Chujiu stood aside with a calm expression and a confident smile in her eyes: Her prince would let these people understand what a true martial arts genius is.
"Okay, the people are here, let's get started." The Emperor was unwilling to wait for a moment. Seeing this, the people in the Martial God Mountain couldn't help but frown.
The Emperor's character was hideous.
But Xiao Tianyao didn't care. He nodded, jumped up, and flew towards the ring.
The three supreme martial gods of the Central Empire were already waiting aside. When they saw Xiao Tianyao entering the ring, the three of them didn't take any action, but they appeared in the ring in a split second. In terms of speed, they were comparable to Xiao Tianyao. This shows that the Emperor of the Central Empire has spent a lot of money. These three supreme martial gods were not ordinary people......
