"Xu Wendong, today, I will make you aware of the price for provoking the royal family!"
Shen Qingzheng’s voice echoed in the majestic hall, carrying an unquestionable imperial power and boiling anger, shaking the air with its intensity.
He slowly extended a palm, and the True Qi within him surged out like a thousand galloping horses, forming a majestic Golden Dragon. The dragon roared thunderously, carrying a world-destroying force, and charged directly at Xu Wendong.
Xu Wendong’s secondary body was fearless, launching a punch that instantly unleashed the Power of Thunder, resembling lightning splitting the sky, violently clashing with the Golden Dragon in the void.
In an instant, an ear-splitting roar reverberated throughout the hall, as terrifying energy raged like a storm. Thankfully, the strong formation surrounding the area prevented a disaster of destruction.
Witnessing this scene, everyone present felt their scalp tingle and spine chill, struck by an indescribable astonishnt.
They had once witnessed Xu Wendong easily defeating the sixth-level Scattered Immortal, Eunuch Li, and now even against the overwhelmingly powerful eighth-grade Scatter Immortal Shen Qingzheng, his attack was resolved by Xu Wendong with an astonishing display, his strength suffocating.
Hongying was utterly shocked, a sense of indescribable awe arising within her heart.
Wendong’s strength seed to have surpassed reason, leaving one wondering if he truly possessed the power to overwhelm Yaohua Country.
Simultaneously, she had no doubt about Xu Wendong’s daring crossing of the Chaotic Star Sea.
"Again!"
Shen Qingzheng, angered and embarrassed, shouted defiantly. His raised hand revealed a square, crystalline Great Seal in his palm.
This was indeed Lingyou Country’s Imperial Jade Seal.
The Jade Seal was carved with intricate and mysterious totems, seemingly containing the most primal and vast power of the heavens and earth, embodying the will of all beings, emitting an intimidating pressure.
"Father, don’t!"
Fei Yan stepped forward, blocking Xu Wendong. Her gaze held both unease and resolute determination, "If Father insists on taking Young Master Xu’s life, please step over first!"
Though her voice was light, every word was firm, revealing a tragic heroism, resolved to face death.
She understood the horror of the Imperial Jade Seal; even if Xu Wendong was extraordinarily talented, his strength unparalleled through the ages, he by no ans could withstand the crushing force of the Jade Seal.
Nonetheless, she could not bear to see Xu Wendong perish before her eyes.
"If you wish to die, I shall fulfill that wish!" Shen Qingzheng seed bloodthirsty, pinching the spell with both hands, as the Imperial Jade Seal exploded with world-ending power.
The terrifying aura made everyone present hold their breath.
"Form the array!"
Xu Wendong uttered in a detached voice.
In an instant.
Lingyou Country’s National Guardian Great Array was forcibly activated by him.
An eerie crimson glow suddenly enveloped all of Lingyou Country, making the citizens fearful, completely unaware of what was happening.
After all, Lingyou Country’s National Guardian Great Array hadn’t been activated in tens of thousands of years.
At the mont the Guardian Great Array was activated, the Imperial Jade Seal in the sky shook violently, its light dimming considerably.
This scene left everyone stunned; no one expected Xu Wendong to be capable of controlling Lingyou Country’s National Guardian Great Array.
It must be known that this was Lingyou Country’s greatest defense, always controlled by the State Preceptor.
"What on earth are you? Why can you control my Lingyou Country’s National Guardian Great Array?" Shen Qingzheng’s eyes displayed undisguised fear.
The matters of today had overturned his understanding of the world; a Great Ascension Period Peak Cultivator able to fight him to a standstill was already bewildering.
Now this person had forcibly activated Lingyou Country’s National Guardian Great Array; how could this not shock people?
Xu Wendong’s face bore a teasing smile: "I am but a passerby, and perhaps, might beco Lingyou Country’s Imperial Son-in-law."
Just then.
Lingyou Country’s State Preceptor, Zhao Xuantong, wearing a white robe, hurried into the hall, his face panic-stricken as he said, "Your Majesty, sothing big has occurred! A mysterious power has forcibly activated our Lingyou Country’s Guardian Great Array; old and inept as I am, I couldn’t seize control of it."
"Our Lingyou Country’s fate hangs in the balance!"
Shen Qingzheng gazed coldly at Xu Wendong: "It was this young man who seized control of the Guardian Great Array!"
Although his expression was icy, inwardly he felt rising dread.
Xu Wendong’s abilities were too inscrutable. Not only was his battle power astonishing—with a powerful clone—but also, he possessed enigmatic abilities in formations.
All this pointed toward him being anything but ordinary.
"What?" Zhao Xuantong drew a shocked breath, exclaiming in disbelief: "Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! How can a Mahayana Period Cultivator forcibly activate my Lingyou Country’s Guardian Great Array under my control?"
Xu Wendong looked at Shen Qingzheng with a smile, even though he was the emperor of Lingyou Country, his gaze was filled with arrogant intent: "Your Majesty, you surely wouldn’t want your Lingyou Country citizens to die tragically by your own hands?"
Shen Qingzheng took a deep breath, striving to calm his emotions.
He had a thought, and retracted the Imperial Jade Seal, knowing that if the fight with Xu Wendong continued, Lingyou Country’s citizens would undoubtedly suffer trendously.
After all, both the Imperial Jade Seal and the Guardian Great Array were Lingyou Country’s reliance, and once these two terrifying entities collided, the unlucky ones would certainly be the citizens.
Though he coveted Xu Wendong’s Minor World, he was aware of weighing the pros and cons.
"Would you be willing to beco my Imperial Son-in-law?" Shen Qingzheng asked softly.
Xu Wendong: "Alright then!"
Shen Qingzheng nearly spat a mouthful of old blood.
He heard a sense of reluctance in Xu Wendong’s tone.
Which made him quite unhappy.
He was, after all, the emperor of Lingyou Country; many dread of becoming Lingyou Country’s Imperial Son-in-law, but he displayed reluctance.
Though displeased, Shen Qingzheng acknowledged Xu Wendong’s extraordinary talent; his strength granted him the capital for pride.
Fei Yan’s face quickly flushed crimson,
Shen Qingzheng spoke softly: "As long as you help with two things, I will grant you Fei Yan."
Xu Wendong: "Speak!"
He held no favor toward Shen Qingzheng, nor did he wish to beco Lingyou Country’s Imperial Son-in-law, yet for Fei Yan, he chose to compromise.
After all, once he refused Shen Qingzheng, Fei Yan’s predicant would undoubtedly worsen.
Therefore, it was better to agree with Shen Qingzheng, and after marriage, take Fei Yan and flee far away.
Shen Qingzheng continued: "The first task is to eradicate the Yin Corpse Sect."
"The Yin Corpse Sect’s thods are cruel, relying on slaying righteous cultivators and controlling corpses to occupy our Lingyou Country for tens of thousands of years. It is a major bane to our Lingyou Country’s cultivation world, yet due to their elusive presence, hasn’t been eradicated.
"Now, my people have discovered their base in the mundane world. I need you to infiltrate it and locate their main base, uprooting them completely.
"Alright, I agree." Xu Wendong continued: "What is the second task?"
