Chapter 87
“Your Highness...” Mo Shuiqiu gazed at the figure before her, her eyes dazed. When all hope seemed lost, she never expected to be rescued by the Crown Prince.
“Leave! Or die.” The vast voice thundered like a clap of thunder.
The mountain beasts palm, which was about to strike down, suddenly halted. It sensed an aura of danger from this young man, especially from the crimson long sword he held in his hand. Could it be... a Sacred Rank weapon?
“Present your token, and I’ll spare your life.” Lin Qi’an ignored the mountain beasts threat, instead looking indifferently at Mo Shuiqiu, who was prostrated on the ground.
“Y-Yes...” Mo Shuiqiu dared not hesitate, hurriedly presenting her token with utmost respect.
She added, “Your Highness, it misunderstood that I killed its offspring, but it was actually captured by someone else using a magical artifact.”
“I understand.” Lin Qi’an already had a guess in mind.
That person was likely Xiao Chen, who had already fled far away. This time, they seemed to have learned their lesson, only taking points without causing trouble for him.
“Your Highness, be careful...” Mo Shuiqiu stood beside Lin Qi’an, her eyes filled with trepidation.
This Celestial realm great fiend was terrifying just to look at! But why was the Crown Prince so calm? Was he not afraid?
“Still not leaving? Then you can die together!”
“We can make a deal.” The mountain beasts thunderous roar contrasted sharply with Lin Qi’an’s calm, leisurely tone.
“What deal? No matter what you offer, today, I must take this human woman with me!” The mountain beasts voice was imposing, leaving no room for negotiation.
“Uh, I think you misunderstand, my deal is simple. I spare your life, and you let her go.”
Mo Shuiqiu’s heart trembled...
The Crown Prince was speaking to this Celestial realm beasts so dominantly and unreasonably? This was clearly provoking it! If it was completely enraged, there would likely be no way out today.
【The Crown Prince is too arrogant. Isn’t he afraid?】
【It’s clear the other party doesn’t recognize him. His identity won’t help here!】
【This is bad... very bad.】
These were the thoughts of the spectators.
As for everyone from Yunmp Dao Palace, their faces turned ashen! Initially, they hoped that the Crown Prince could reveal his identity and status, making the fiend spare the Saintess out of respect for the Sword Emperor.
But things were not developing that way at all!
At this rate, there was no chance for negotiation, only war.
...
“Insolent brat, seeking death!” As expected, the gigantic beasts was utterly enraged.
That brat, to have such a fortuitous encounter?
As expected of my son, the future will probably be his to rule.
...
“I’ll give you one more chance.” Lin Qi’an stood with his hands behind his back, his tone indifferent. He seemed like a high king, overlooking all beings.
“Ancestral Dragon’s might... very well!” The massive mountain beast stood up once again.
In its trembling gaze, a touch of madness appeared.
If it could devour this young man, perhaps it could also gain the power of the Ancestral Dragon? As long as it could withstand the pressure, at its level, he would surely be no match.
“It seems you’ve chosen the wrong path.” Lin Qi’an shook his head and sighed, “Then die.”
Above the cliff, atop the clouds, high in the sky a beam of silver light descended.
The Sacred Rank weapon, the Seven Stars Dragon Spring Sword! It had been hidden in the clouds all along, hanging over the mountain beast head.
Once negotiations fails, it would descend, falling from the sky to the earth.
Innate Sword Bone Technique: The Abyss of Heaven and Earth!
The streak of light pierced through the mountain fiend’s head, completely penetrating its body from top to bottom, embedding deep into the earth.
A sword that pierced through heaven and earth.
“No...” The mountain beast’s massive body cracked all over. With a thunderous roar, it exploded on the spot!
Countless chunks of flesh and blood mixed with a hurricane of dust, rocks, and soil. It blossomed into a brilliant firework...
In the midst of the swirling dust, the Crown Prince of Beiyang, Lin Qi’an, used his spiritual power to shield his body, not allowing a single speck of dust to touch him.
“This...” Mo Shuiqiu stood in place, dazed, and her mouth hung open, unable to speak.
The Celestial realm beasts was... killed in an instant by the Crown Prince?
Across the plains, countless cultivators gasped in shock. People instinctively rubbed their eyes, doubting what they had just witnessed. The Crown Prince of Beiyang had, with a single sword descending from the heavens, instantly killed a Celestial realm great fiend? Not even in tales would such a thing be written!
“I’m stunned. Is this really the power of the Transcendent realm? Terrifying, absolutely terrifying!”
“Just a moment ago, I was worried that the beast would be a threat to the Crown Prince. Who could have imagined this?”
“No wonder the Crown Prince dared to bring the little princess, who has no spiritual power, to participate. This is the confidence in his own strength!”
“I remember there were people who said the Crown Prince was too young and would suffer losses in the hunting battle... What losses? In two more years, the others won’t even be able to compete!”
“Our sect master is only at the Celestial realm, and he’s seven hundred years old! How old is the Crown Prince? Twenty?”
One exclamation after another filled the air, filled with awe and amazement.
