Capítulo 1360: Chapter 1345: Slandered with Barefaced Lies?
“Brother Ye, Haiyuan State is the fiefdom of the Marquis of Haiyuan, who is a relative of Princess Consort Yi. I’ve t him a few tis; he’s absolutely trustworthy. Why not go directly to the Marquis Haiyuan’s Mansion and let him notify Luoyi to send people to receive us? The Marquis of Haiyuan definitely has a way to directly contact Luoyi.”
After trekking for three days within Haiyuan State, Princess Changle, who could see the walls of Haiyuan State City from a distance, made this suggestion.
However, Ye Zhen dismissed this suggestion without even considering it.
“That’s unnecessary!”
“There is an Ancient Teleportation Formation within Haiyuan State City. Under normal circumstances, we only need to teleport four tis to reach Dragon Swimming Plain. Considering the queuing ti for teleportation, we can return to Dragon Swimming Plain in a day!” Ye Zhen said.
“Queue? Why should we queue? With my princess status, I can not only mobilize the guards but also have priority to use the Ancient Teleportation Formation.
As long as I reveal my identity, we can reach Dragon Swimming Plain within two hours!” Princess Changle said.
“Within two hours… that’s true too!”
After thinking about it, Ye Zhen agreed with Princess Changle’s statent.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, the status of the royal clan is incredibly noble, especially in public. As long as Princess Changle reveals her identity, even facing the Western Patrol, they wouldn’t dare act recklessly.
The two paid the city gate tax honestly and quickly headed towards the Ancient Teleportation Formation at the center of Haiyuan State City. Ye Zhen planned to reveal his identity at the Ancient Teleportation Formation, as there would be fewer variables then.
Before that, it’s best to remain low-key.
Princess Changle was quite obedient as well. With her favored princess status, even in Luoyi, others would give way to her carriage.
But today, in Haiyuan City, Ye Zhen and Princess Changle humbly gave way even to the carriages of ordinary wealthy rchants.
Sotis, things just coincide.
Just as Ye Zhen and Princess Changle were about to let a very ordinary carriage pass, a sudden shout ca from inside the carriage, “Stop them, stop this man and woman!”
In a flurry, over a hundred guards turned around, surrounding Ye Zhen and Princess Changle.
Ye Zhen’s face suddenly turned extrely grim, as he didn’t expect that even in Haiyuan Land, soone would cause trouble for him.
“Dare to attack the commissioned General Anze, do you all have a death wish?” On the territory of the Great Zhou, Ye Zhen decisively revealed his Identity Seal.
It must be said that on the territory of the Great Zhou, this Identity Seal was still very effective. The hundred or so guards surrounding Ye Zhen imdiately showed signs of panic.
Because according to the Law of Great Zhou, ordinary Martial Artists attacking soone with a title or honor equates to treason!
As for not having Princess Changle reveal her seal, it was mainly because Ye Zhen worried about attracting the attention of Heavenly Patrol Departnt Dark Departnt’s informants, which would expose her identity.
“What are you panicking for? Whatever happens, I’ll take full responsibility!” A voice full of gritted teeth suddenly sounded from the carriage, and at the sa ti, a specially made Talisman Communication shot out from it.
In nearly two breaths, amidst the sound of clashing armor, about three thousand City Defense Army mbers rushed over from near the city gate.
This made Ye Zhen and Princess Changle’s expressions change again, as soone who could mobilize the City Defense Army was no ordinary figure.
However, since they could mobilize the City Defense Army and official figures, Ye Zhen and Princess Changle didn’t need to worry too much.
“Clear the area, have half of you drive away all irrelevant people for this old man! The other half, encircle this little bastard. If you let this little bastard escape, I’ll wipe out your families!” In a vicious shout, an old man in Qing Yi with a ghastly face like a fierce ghost slowly descended from the carriage.
“Chief Guo!” At the first sight of this old man, Ye Zhen exclaid.
Ye Zhen never expected to et Chief Guo from the Red Maple Ship, a rchant ship from his early days on the Primordial Continent. Various confrontations with Chief Guo imdiately flooded his mind, and Ye Zhen understood why Chief Guo had this look of deep-seated hatred.
Chief Guo’s son, Guo Yu, was killed by Ye Zhen! Although Chief Guo didn’t know it was Ye Zhen who killed him, he could guess that Ye Zhen was involved. His son, who should have achieved great accomplishnts or even been conferred as a Marquis, disappeared without a trace.
Especially since, in Chief Guo’s plan, his son Guo Yu was supposed to kill Ye Zhen and obtain Ye Zhen’s Golden Cavalry Guard honors. But now, Ye Zhen was living well, holding the title of General Anze, while his son Guo Yu was missing.
“Little thief, do you still recognize this old man? You ungrateful wretch, I saved you with good intentions, yet you hard my son! Tell , where is my son Guo Yu? Did you kill him?” As soon as he got out of the carriage, Chief Guo, overflowing with anger, pointed at Ye Zhen and cursed.
This curse left Ye Zhen stupefied.
What nonsense, isn’t he slandering ?
He and his son clearly harbored malicious intents, yet now he’s biting back. This imdiately enraged Ye Zhen.
“Old Dog Guo! You and your son were vicious, plotting to harm and steal my honors, and still dare to slander ?”
“I’m not afraid to tell you, your useless son was killed by shortly after disembarking, cut into pieces. With your incompetent turtle-son and those few useless followers, you dream of taking my life? Keep dreaming your daydreams!”
Chief Guo’s eyes suddenly bulged round, his blood Qi surged uncontrollably, making his entire old face flush a deep red.
Originally, Chief Guo still harbored a glimr of hope that his son was alive, but now being told by Ye Zhen on the spot that his son had been killed, he was so angry that he almost fainted.
Pfft!
His chest heaved violently for a few monts before Chief Guo spat out a mouthful of black blood skyward, catching his breath.
In the next instant, Chief Guo pointed at Ye Zhen and Princess Changle, roaring with anger, “Shoot, shoot them now!”
“No, alive, I want this little bastard alive, so I can carve him up piece by piece, only then can my wrath be quelled!” Chief Guo’s voice was as mournful as a weeping elderly ape, extrely shrill.
The City Guard commander, who had surrounded Ye Zhen and Princess Changle with crossbows, hesitated upon seeing the token Ye Zhen displayed.
“Chief Guo, he is an appointed General Anze, killing him like this……”
“What are you afraid of?” Chief Guo roared angrily again, “If sothing happens, I’ll take the bla! Besides, not to ntion a re General Anze, there aren’t a billion but at least eighty million of them in the Great Zhou Dynasty, what’s the harm in killing one more? Moreover, this is Haiyuan City!”
“Easier said than done!”
Upon hearing this, Ye Zhen sneered, “You’re not afraid of making a big deal out of it for your son’s revenge, but if these soldiers dare to make a move on today, being wiped out would be light!”
The words ‘wiped out’ made that City Guard commander shiver and he quickly whispered, “Chief Guo, this…..”
“Bastard!”
By now Chief Guo pounced with the madness of a lunatic, gripping the commander’s collar, “Do it now, capture this little bastard alive for !”
“If you don’t act now, by nightfall tonight I can have your entire family wiped out, down to the third generation!” Chief Guo roared harshly.
The commander’s face turned stark white in an instant, compared to Ye Zhen’s threat, Chief Guo’s threat seed much more real and effective.
Indeed, Chief Guo wasn’t bluffing; with his power, it only took a word to wipe out the commander’s entire family!
Gritting his teeth and making a hard decision, the City Guard commander shouted, “Raise the crossbows!”
Ye Zhen didn’t even blink; these City Guards were using the most ordinary Wind-Fire Crossbows, and even if fifteen hundred or fifteen thousand of these fired simultaneously, it would only tickle Ye Zhen’s Black Dragon Tyrant Body.
Ye Zhen was hesitating now, wondering if he should go on a killing spree to break free?
If he did go on a killing spree and a misunderstanding ensued, it wouldn’t be good, and the Ancient Teleportation Formation in Haiyuan City might not be usable.
“If you know what’s good for you, surrender on your knees, and leave you with an intact corpse!” The City Guard commander gritted his teeth and roared angrily.
Chief Guo, anwhile, was stomping his feet anxiously, “What use is a threat, get your n up, attack, capture him alive!”
The City Guard commander had no choice but to grumble and shout, “Change formation, raise the spears, advance…..”
Before the word ‘attack’ could be finished, a figure suddenly flashed in front of the commander.
Slap!
A loud slap landed.
“Idiot, attacking the appointed General Anze, do you have a death wish?”
Instantly, the soldiers who were just about to attack imdiately put away their weaponry, and the City Guard commander sat on the ground, dejected.
“Commander Ma!”
“Commander Ma!!!” The first sound was the dejected voice of the City Guard commander, the latter was the furious, hysterical roar from Chief Guo, “Commander Ma, this is my business, don’t stick your nose in!”
“If you want to avoid trouble, then get out of here right now, otherwise…..”
“Otherwise what?” A low, angry snort ca from behind, a large troop of guards rushed straight into the encirclent, “Chief Guo, are you trying to drive away too? Who gave you such audacity, you old dog!”
This angry shout startled Chief Guo, causing him to jump, seeing the person coming, his legs went soft, and he knelt down, “Marquis!”
But as soon as he knelt down, tears stread down from Chief Guo’s bloodshot eyes, “Marquis, you have to uphold justice for your old servant! My son, Guo Yu, was killed by this little bastard…..”
“Shut up, you old dog, are you trying to get killed?” The Marquis of Haiyuan strode up in an arrow-like manner, delivering a big slap to Chief Guo.
This slap was so forceful that at least half of Chief Guo’s big front teeth shattered.
After delivering the slap, the newly arrived Marquis of Haiyuan lifted his robes and knelt before Princess Changle, “This minister, the Marquis of Haiyuan, pays respects to Princess Changle, I apologize for being late in protecting you, please forgive , my princess!”
In an instant, Chief Guo was dumbfounded, his eyes widened larger than bronze bells!
