Chapter 35: Lin Qi’an Exits the Secret Realm, Tensions Rise
Outside the secret realm.
All the sects and holy lands had already moved away.
The Beiyang Sword Guards at the center had become the focus of everyone’s attention and they were surrounded on all sides.
“Do these people really think they are something special? Let me go and kill my way in and out seven times!” A sword guard angrily suggested.
“Impossible, they have the advantage of numbers. Even if we charge in and kill dozens, it would still be a heavy loss.”
The Beiyang Sword Guards were strong, but it was impossible to fight thousands of experts simultaneously and they simply couldn’t kill them all.
“We should wait for the Crown Prince to come out and decide. If the Crown Prince orders us to kill, we will kill.”
Within the Ziyou Holy Land and Tianchi Holy Land, there was a sense of panic among everyone.
“What should we do... the Ziyou Saintess is still with the Crown Prince...”
“Don’t say that, the Saintess of Tianchi is also by His Highness’s side.”
“Will we be held accountable together later...”
“The Saintess of Tianchi might be fine, as she’s favored by the prince, but Ziyou Saintess is not!”
“We’re doomed! If we get implicated, our Ziyou Holy Land is finished...”
Hundreds of elders and disciples were all trembling with fear.
If they were really implicated, the power under the Nanyue Crown Prince, destroying their two holy lands would be as easy as turning over a hand!
They wouldn’t have the slightest chance to resist. Outside, the cultivators from various sects were whispering to each other.
“Hey, this is not Beiyang after all, Lin Qi’an can’t act domineering here.”
“Exactly... Two tigers cannot live on the same mountain. If he acts so tyrannically in Nanyue, he will inevitably be suppressed.”
“I’m not worried about the Crown Prince’s life. In the Canglan Dao Domain, no sect dares to harm the son of the Sword Emperor.”
Stepping out of the secret realm was a man dressed in white, his bearing was graceful, like a divine son in a robe of cloud brocade.
It was the Beiyang Crown Prince, Lin Qi’an and two stunning women stood by his side. One was elegant as a lotus, like a celestial maiden. The other wore a purple dress, equally a peerless beauty.
“Beiyang Crown Prince!”
“It’s the Beiyang Crown Prince, he’s out!”
“Finally... The show is about to start!”
The entire mountain range erupted in excitement.
The white-clad sword guards stepped forward to greet the Crown Prince.
After listening for a moment, he immediately understood the situation and looked at the richly dressed man not far ahead.
“Well, I didn’t expect you to personally come to greet me?”
“Beiyang Crown Prince, it took you so long to come out, were you hiding?” Zhao Sanfeng sneered with his hands behind his back.
His words were full of undisguised mockery, angering the sword guards, who were ready to draw their swords.
“Insulting the Crown Prince, courting death!”
The Southern Python Guards shouted angrily: “Crown Prince? In Nanyue, there is only one Crown Prince. Beiyang dares to be presumptuous?!”
The tension between the two sides was palpable. The air was thick with the scent of gunpowder, ready to explode at any moment.
Lin Qi’an whispered, “Aunt You, they seem to have a lot of people. What do you think?”
A ripple appeared in the shadows, and a black figure emerged faintly.
“Your Highness, they are just a bunch of rabble. I can kill them at will.”
She was indeed the female assassin who struck fear across the Canglan Dao Domain five hundred years ago.
Everyone thought she had died, but they didn’t know she had been subdued by the Sword Emperor. His father assigned her as his protector which was a bit of a waste of talent!
“Then why don’t you go up and kill a few rounds, let the Nanyue Crown Prince feel the warmth of Beiyang?” Lin Qi’an smiled and asked.
“At your command!”
