Jialan Imperial Capital on the Nine Nether Continent
Although this is an otherworld where magic and fighting qi coexist.
Yet the nightti here is in no way inferior to technology-focused Earth.
Around eight o’clock, Jialan Imperial Capital is not as desolate as one might imagine.
On the contrary, at this mont, the streets and alleys of the imperial capital are still brilliantly lit and bustling with people, presenting a prosperous and lively scene.
In this otherworld free from industrial pollution, the night sky is filled with the endless star river and sparkling stars.
At this ti, the Jialan Empire is already in late autumn.
The nights here are even colder than the days, with the autumn wind rustling.
Yet even so, it does not dampen the enthusiasm and excitent on the faces of everyone in Jialan Imperial Capital.
Everything that happened today in the imperial capital is as unbelievable as a dream for the majority, sothing to be talked about with great interest.
For example:
The continuous ergence of divine-level masters opened the eyes of those present, filled with exclamations of awe;
The sudden appearance of the ’Titan Race Descendant’ refreshed the knowledge of everyone in Jialan City, and even on the entire Nine Nether Continent;
The Titan, an ancient, mysterious, and powerful race, re-entered people’s vision in such a unique way.
And that youth who confronted a tier nine divine level with a tier six body, beca the hottest topic discussed in the whole city.
He also beca the center of people’s talks.
Especially with the arrival of the celestial tribulation, the subject soared to a height beyond the reach of ordinary people.
It also made the youth’s identity even more mysterious and unfathomable.
It can be said that this day for the people of Jialan Imperial Capital is destined to be a sleepless night.
However, it can be foreseen.
As this event continues to fernt.
Soon, people across the Nine Nether Continent will be imrsed in discussions about this youth.
Lin Yi did not know.
What a huge sensation his actions brought to the Nine Nether Continent.
Moreover, he beca the first-ever highly influential [Jialan King] since the founding of the Jialan Empire.
...
At this mont, outside a residence in Jialan Imperial Capital
Squads of fully ard soldiers filled with murderous aura guarded the entrance, vigilantly observing everything around.
The people in the city can tell at a glance from their splendid armor that these soldiers are from the Jialan Dynasty’s Imperial Guard.
Their duty is to protect the safety of so core mbers of the Jialan royal family.
And in the reception hall inside this residence, a man with sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes suddenly paused:
"What did you say?"
Gongsun Zhi looked at Ling Yuwei in disbelief:
"The Crown Prince personally ca, and he won’t see ?"
Ling Yuwei could clearly see that the man’s face was not looking good.
And this person was the Crown Prince of the Jialan Empire, Gongsun Zhi, who had previously requested to et Lin Yi.
Ling Yuwei did not hold back due to the other party’s status:
"Young Master Lin Yi indeed said so."
"Crown Prince, do you think it’s better to co another day?"
Under Ling Yuwei’s gaze, the Crown Prince of the Jialan Empire suddenly closed his eyes.
But Ling Yuwei could still sense the anger in his heart through his slightly trembling body.
Perhaps this was the first ti Gongsun Zhi, as the Crown Prince of the Jialan Empire, had faced such a refusal.
But even so, Ling Yuwei had no thoughts of sympathy.
As the eldest daughter of Linlang Mansion, she was not under the control of the Three Great Empires.
Though the imperial crown prince’s identity is noble, it was just that and couldn’t control her.
At least for now, compared to him and Lin Yi, Ling Yuwei would unhesitatingly choose to side with Lin Yi.
Since Lin Yi said he wouldn’t et, then he wouldn’t et.
Perhaps after calming his anger in his heart.
When Gongsun Zhi opened his eyes again, Ling Yuwei could no longer see any emotional fluctuation on his face.
Just as Ling Yuwei thought the Crown Prince would give up, unexpectedly, Gongsun Zhi suddenly stood up and said to Ling Yuwei:
"As the Jialan King of my Jialan Empire."
"His importance to my Jialan Empire is self-evident."
"I heard the Jialan King suffered so injuries during today’s tribulation crossing."
"I ca today on behalf of my Jialan royal family, to condole the Jialan King."
Then Gongsun Zhi took out a bottle of potion from his body:
"This is a sixth-grade [Recovery Potion] of my Jialan Empire."
"I hope to personally hand it to the Jialan King to express the goodwill of my Jialan royal family."
Finally, Gongsun Zhi looked at Ling Yuwei and said:
"Miss Ling, could you make an introduction?"
Ling Yuwei looked at Gongsun Zhi in astonishnt, unable to understand why he was so persistent about eting Lin Yi.
Could it just be because he was dissatisfied with Lin Yi’s refusal?
But recalling Lin Yi’s words before, Ling Yuwei still shook her head and said:
"Sorry, Crown Prince."
"Lin Yi said that no one would be seen today."
"And Lin Yi is recovering well, so please rest assured, Your Highness."
"If you really want to see him, you’ll naturally et him at the Divine Son investiture ceremony after the selection."
"Isn’t that so?"
Gongsun Zhi coldly stared at Ling Yuwei, still trying to negotiate, saying:
"Or Miss Ling, you can tell where he is, and I’ll go by myself. How about that?"
Feeling the vague anger emanating from Gongsun Zhi, Ling Yuwei remained unmoved, saying:
"Sorry."
"This is my Linlang Mansion. Since Lin Yi chose to be here,"
"we have the obligation to ensure he gets enough rest without disturbances."
Saying that, Ling Yuwei stepped aside, pointing at the door:
"It’s late, and our Linlang Mansion is about to close. Please, Your Highness."
"Or I can arrange a room for Your Highness to rest."
Gongsun Zhi stood motionless, looking at Ling Yuwei, and suddenly—
"Pa~"
The expensive recovery potion in his hand was crushed by Gongsun Zhi, the red liquid mingling with his blood, spilling all over the ground.
The maid accompanying Gongsun Zhi was startled, quickly ran forward, and started bandaging his hand with a handkerchief from her bosom.
And Gongsun Zhi, as if unfazed by the pain, suddenly showed an apologetic expression to Ling Yuwei and said:
"Sorry for the ss I made here."
Then he turned to his maid and said:
"Soone clean this up."
Ling Yuwei frowned slightly at Gongsun Zhi and said:
"No need."
"I’ll have soone clean it up later, no need to trouble Your Highness."
Gongsun Zhi seed not to really intend to clean up and naturally responded:
"That’s fine."
"Then I’ll trouble your Linlang Pavilion to tidy up this ss for ."
After saying that, Gongsun Zhi ignored his half-bandaged hand, leading his entourage straight past Ling Yuwei and out of the hall.
Ling Yuwei watched Gongsun Zhi and his group leave with a slightly heavy expression.
Just then, halfway out, Gongsun Zhi suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Subsequently, with his back to Ling Yuwei, Gongsun Zhi said:
"Didn’t your Linlang Pavilion in the city center get destroyed in this Celestial Tribulation?"
"Just right, it can be used to build the Jialan Palace. If you want to rebuild, find another place."
Ling Yuwei was stunned, then angrily said:
"You!"
Just as Ling Yuwei was about to speak, Ling Yudao suddenly appeared beside her, making her swallow back her words.
After the group had left, Ling Yuwei suddenly burst out:
"Father, why didn’t you let speak?"
"We bought that piece of land for Linlang Pavilion long ago."
"How can it be returned just because he says so?"
At this mont, Ling Yudao calmly said:
"It seems our Jialan Crown Prince is a bit impatient."
Ling Yuwei was imdiately puzzled:
"What do you an?"
Ling Yudao laughed and said:
"It seems soone can’t hold back and wants to strike against our Linlang Pavilion."
Ling Yuwei was taken aback at his words:
"What?"
"Are you talking about the Jialan Royal Family?"
"The Jialan Royal Family?"
Ling Yudao coldly said:
"A Jialan Empire is nothing to worry about."
"But now..."
Ling Yudao suddenly changed his tone:
"Given the circumstances, we cannot just sit and wait."
Ling Yuwei’s eyes lit up at his words:
"Father, do you have a plan?"
Ling Yudao suddenly chuckled and said:
"To be honest, until today, I hadn’t thought of a foolproof plan."
"But now..."
Ling Yudao looked up and smiled at where Lin Yi stayed:
"Now, I do."
