Three nights ago.
Xiao Ran couldn’t wake up.
Xiao Zhan was feeling depressed and wanted to find soone to vent to. He rushed over to Liu Jinhu without paying attention to the surroundings. He was anxious to see Xiao Ran earlier, so he didn’t notice, but now that he learned Xiao Ran was in the Imperial City and the Emperor had personally sent soone to watch over him, he felt much more at ease.
He knew the Emperor wouldn’t let Xiao Ran die.
Because if Xiao Ran died.
He would lose restraint at the National Gate.
The Emperor would also help him, and summon a powerhouse from Yun Gui Sect to truly awaken Xiao Ran.
So he slowed down and pondered over the events that had occurred recently, and suddenly he saw the two rows of fallen sycamore trees.
"Loulan Slash?"
"These traces are still very new."
"Three days ago, when I passed this way, these trees were still intact."
"How did such a situation suddenly occur?"
"That night, Yang the Third and his n arrived several monts later than scheduled. Could it be that they encountered sothing here?"
"Yun Gui Sect prides itself as a Magic Immortal Sect. How could they fail to awaken my son? Could it be that soone obstructed them that night, causing Yun Gui Sect to hold back!"
Xiao Zhan exclaid repeatedly.
How could he be a re brute?
To be able to guard the National Gate, command a million soldiers, fend off the Turkic, and ensure the safety of the Great Tang, and to gain the Emperor’s trust, how could he be a simple man? Compared to Han Dong, Xiao Zhan was equally ticulous and discerning.
"Hmph, to dare to ddle with , Xiao Zhan, is courting death!"
Xiao Zhan seed to have realized sothing. He imdiately soared into the sky, shattering a piece of bluestone brick on the ground, and swiftly headed towards the Imperial City.
"Boom!"
He descended upon the Imperial City.
Appearing in Yang the Third’s courtyard.
A powerful aura spread out, like a tsunami, boiling within Yang the Third’s courtyard.
"Pfft!"
Yang the Third, who was inside the room recuperating and healing his injuries, was caught off guard by this surging power and couldn’t help but spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Bang!"
Xiao Ran caught Yang the Third’s aura.
Breaking through the window, the terrifying aura crushed everything.
Like a Demon God descending from the sky.
"Xiao Zhan, what are you doing?"
Yang the Third said with a grim face.
In the crucial mont of healing his internal injuries, being so abruptly confronted by Xiao Zhan not only prevented the healing of his injuries but even caused more severe internal wounds, making him even more lethargic.
Moreover, his previous injuries were also inflicted by Xiao Zhan.
And now, the aggravated injuries were still due to Xiao Zhan.
How infuriating!
"I want to know, that day you took the people from Yun Gui Sect to Black Iron Mountain, what happened along the way?"
Xiao Zhan questioned.
"Nothing happened along the way. What exactly do you want?"
Yang the Third retorted angrily.
"Still not telling the truth?"
Xiao Zhan was furious.
His montum suddenly increased, as if an invisible palm seal was pressing towards Yang the Third.
"Hmm?"
Yang the Third grunted, his mouth puffed, and he forcefully swallowed back the blood in his mouth. He couldn’t suppress his anger and said, "Xiao Zhan, don’t go too far. This is the Imperial City, and I’m a Tributor invited by the Holy Emperor. If I die, how will you explain it?"
"You are not worthy to die by my hand, but I have various ans to deal with you, such as crippling your cultivation."
Xiao Zhan calmly said with his hands behind his back.
"You..."
Yang the Third’s expression changed, seeming to believe that Xiao Zhan could both say and do it.
"What’s with the sycamore trees in front of the temple? Who left those Loulan Slash marks?"
Xiao Zhan questioned.
"I don’t know. I only know that when I took the two Immortal Masters over there, the sycamore trees had fallen and blocked the road. To avoid wasting ti, I let them co with over the obstacle, and we went up the mountain together afterward."
Yang the Third said.
"Hmph, when they ca down later, how could they not see the Loulan Slash marks? I rember they walked around the mountain top after going up, probably also looking for the Loulan Slash marks. Do they think my son is in league with the Demon Sect, or one of the Demon Sect mbers, so they deliberately didn’t awaken my son directly, right?"
Xiao Zhan snorted coldly.
"This... they did find the Loulan Slash marks, but I don’t know if they held back. You’ll have to ask them yourself."
Yang the Third dared not offend the people of Yun Gui Sect, afraid to make easy accusations.
"If I’m not mistaken, they must have asked you what’s going on, right? Did you tell them my son was injured by Jin Muchuan, and Jin Muchuan died at the hands of Loulan Slash?"
Xiao Zhan questioned again.
"No... I didn’t say anything. I just ntioned that it must be soone from the Demon Sect trying to stop the Immortal Masters from awakening the Little Prince and advised them not to think too much and quickly follow up the mountain to awaken the Little Prince."
Yang the Third shook his head and defended himself.
"Is it true?"
Xiao Zhan took a step forward.
The aura on him seed to transform into an invisible hand seal, giving Yang the Third a suffocating feeling as if his throat were being crushed.
"It’s absolutely true, but no one can guarantee that whoever left the Loulan Slash marks wouldn’t let them know everything."
Yang the Third quickly said.
"Where are they now?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhan constrained his aura, sparing Yang the Third from looking miserable.
"Cough, cough, they have already requested to leave from the Holy Emperor. By now, they should be preparing to leave the Dragon Capital and head back."
Yang the Third coughed and said.
Xiao Zhan turned and left.
Exiting from Yang the Third’s courtyard.
Seeing a group of people standing outside.
"King Xiao!"
...
They were basically tributors invited by the Emperor.
There were several Innate Powerhouses among them, along with a group of First Grade Qi Refining Realm masters, seemingly drawn by the commotion to see what was happening.
