You Drove Me Out with Your Hypocrisy and now Crying When I Come to Take It All? Chapter 133 : Chapter 133
Chapter 133: Winning Would Be the Real Problem—That Would Cause an Even Greater Disaster!
“Your Highness, while the prince is in seclusion, what should be done about the Great Undertaking of Heavenly Fate?”
Inside the main hall of Iron Halberd Mountain, Xiao Qian sat upon a crimson-gold Dragon Throne.
Her dignified bearing carried an innate majesty and pride, displaying the noble air of royalty.
A host of Prince Qing’s descendants knelt in submission before her.
As an outsider, Cheng Fang did not need to kneel, yet he stood to one side in extre embarrassnt.
In a sense, it was precisely because he had failed in his task that Xiao Qian had been captured, which in turn had indirectly led to the deaths of the brothers Xiao Lin and Xiao Xiu.
Xiao Qian had always been a headstrong and reckless person who acted as she pleased.
Now that she was wielding the power of Prince Qing’s line in her father’s place, if she ca to resent Cheng Fang because of this, then Ancestor Cheng Yuan’s treasures would only drift farther and farther from his grasp.
But at this very mont, Xiao Qian had no ti to resent Cheng Fang.
On the surface, she wore the air of a calm and noble leader.
Deep in her heart, however, she was filled with regret.
How had she been so possessed as to strike at her own father?
Was that sothing a daughter should do?
How could she have been so reckless!
Even if she had to make a move, she should have been more cautious and made certain to succeed in a single blow.
Now she had left herself caught in an impossible dilemma.
With Xiao Teng’s Ninth Rank strength, he was not soone who could be completely dealt with rely through the backlash of the grand array.
Although he was currently trapped within the Prince Qing Secret Realm, once his injuries had more or less recovered, the first thing he would certainly do would be to take revenge on his “filial” daughter!
No!
She had to quickly find a way to gather up the treasures and resources and leave this place!
In her heart, Xiao Qian made the decision to abscond with the wealth and flee.
Then, with all the dignity she could muster, her crisp voice rang out.
“Father had long since made arrangents. Over the next few days, he ordered to first sort through all the preparations for the uprising and take stock of our resources and treasures, so that everything may be ready for the Great Undertaking of Heavenly Fate!”
“When Father breaks through and erges from seclusion, the Righteous Path of Heavenly Fate will be within arm’s reach!”
That was what she said, but Xiao Qian knew the truth very well.
Xiao Teng was not going to break through. She was planning to seize the wealth and run!
“We heed Your Highness’ command!”
None of them had the slightest suspicion, and all of them nodded and accepted the order.
But at that very mont—
Dong! Dong! Dong!
The warning bells of Iron Halberd Mountain rang out three tis in succession.
It ant that enemies had arrived!
Everyone was full of confusion. Their Great Undertaking of Heavenly Fate had not even begun yet, so who would dare take the initiative to attack them?
Xiao Qian frowned even more deeply.
This was bad!
If her plan to abscond with the wealth was disrupted and delayed until Xiao Teng erged from the Secret Realm, then she would truly be finished.
Suppressing the fear in her heart by force, she cried out angrily, “Who is so blind as to dare invade the land of the Descendants of Heavenly Fate?!”
In the next instant, a voice borne upon Internal Energy rang out from afar.
“The Jinyiwei marches forth... why have you not yet surrendered your heads?!”
Xiao Qian recognized the voice at once, and her eyes widened instantly.
“It’s Cheng Yu! The Jinyiwei have co!”
Those among them who had witnessed the might of Cheng Yu and Jian A in Jiannan City were greatly alard.
The prince was still in seclusion attempting to break through.
Among them, there was no one who could easily deal with these intruders.
As for the rest, who had not been involved in the earlier events, the mont they heard that the hounds of Great Qian had arrived, they flew into a furious rage.
Before they had even risen up and swept across Jiannan Circuit, a re Thousand-Household Commander had actually dared take the initiative to attack them.
He truly did not know the aning of life and death!
“That cur of the False Court is courting death. I’ll go et them!”
“Count in! We’ll use their heads to consecrate the banner for the Great Undertaking of Heavenly Fate, and let that dog emperor of the False Court have a good look at the fate of anyone who dares obstruct Heavenly Fate!”
The hall instantly descended into chaos.
Filled with worry, Xiao Qian hurriedly spoke to restrain them.
“Go out first and see exactly what is happening. Rember this well—do not act rashly. If anything goes wrong, then rely on the Secret Realm to repel the enemy!”
Everyone nodded and hurried toward the mountain gate, though it was unclear whether they had actually taken her warning to heart.
Before the mountain gate, Cheng Yu did not choose to launch a direct assault on Iron Halberd Mountain.
Within his eyes, yin and yang revolved in alternation, and a clear Dao Essence drifted forth in ethereal wisps.
The overall terrain and waters of Iron Halberd Mountain, together with the alignnt of the four quarters, all lay plainly within his sight.
From within it, waves of mysterious and powerful aura emanated without end.
Cheng Yu knew very well what kind of aura it was.
The Prince Qing Secret Realm!
Within, it could serve as a world suited for cultivation and inheritance.
Without, it could function as an exceedingly powerful treasure of defense.
It was a rare opportunity found scarcely anywhere under Heaven!
The powerful sects all possessed their own Secret Realms as part of their foundations.
If he wanted to completely wipe out Prince Qing’s Remnants, there was no avoiding the power of the Secret Realm.
At the sa ti, wave after wave of powerful Internal Energy rapidly drew near from within Iron Halberd Mountain.
The strong had arrived!
“Who dares invade my Heavenly Fate Lineage?!”
The most hot-tempered among them arrived first, standing arrogantly before the mountain gate.
At the sight of the aggressively advancing Jinyiwei, he was furious beyond asure.
An Early Seventh Rank martial artist glared fiercely at Cheng Yu, who stood at the front.
With spittle flying, he cursed, “So you are Thousand-Household Commander Cheng Yu, the lapdog of the False Court who killed mbers of my Heavenly Fate Lineage?!”
“Heavenly Fate?”
Cheng Yu let out a cold laugh, dismounted, and stood with his hands clasped behind his back as he looked at them with disdain.
“You gutter rats who have hidden yourselves away for hundreds of years dare call yourselves Heavenly Fate?”
With that single sentence, Cheng Yu had cursed dozens of generations of Prince Qing’s descendants, ancestors and all.
Seeing Cheng Yu’s hateful manner, the hot-tempered Early Seventh Rank martial artist instantly flew into a rage.
“How dare the likes of you slander the Great Undertaking of Heavenly Fate!”
Xiao Qian’s warning was forgotten completely. He mobilized his powerful Vital Blood and charged ferociously at Cheng Yu.
At that very mont, Xiao Qian and the others also arrived behind him.
The mont they saw this, they were horrified and hurriedly cried out to stop him.
“Do not act recklessly!”
But there was no calling back soone who had already attacked in blind fury.
Seeing this, Cheng Yu rely raised a brow slightly. With one step, his figure vanished from where he stood.
Then he shot forward to et the attack head-on.
“Good!”
The martial artist of Prince Qing’s line let out a savage laugh. His Vital Blood surged to its limit, and behind him a Vital Blood Giant Python erged.
If those other pieces of trash could not deal with this dog of the False Court, then he would restore the dignity of the Heavenly Fate Lineage himself!
First he would kill Cheng Yu, then slaughter Jiannan City!
But in the next instant, a thunderous peal exploded by his ear.
He had no chance to react. Lightning mixed with saber light, like a heavenly tribulation descending from the sky.
The savage grin of the martial artist from Prince Qing’s line froze upon his face, while the Vital Blood throughout his body suddenly collapsed.
A huge gash split open from his shoulder, cleaving him diagonally into two halves.
Cheng Yu casually flicked the blood from the Xiuchun Saber in his hand and sheathed it once more.
“As expected of gutter rats. No matter how many die, you never learn fear!”
“You!!”
The other martial artists of Prince Qing stared with wide eyes, trembling as they looked upon the horrifying scene before them. Their fury was mixed with fear.
Another Seventh Rank expert had fallen to Cheng Yu’s hand!
Counting the previous battle in Jiannan City and the slain Xiao Lin and Xiao Xiu, before their Heavenly Fate Lineage had even formally launched its uprising, a full seven Seventh Rank martial artists had already died by his hand!
They had never suffered losses of this scale before. It was utterly appalling.
【The host displayed might before the crowd, killed a rebel, and magnified the prestige of the Jinyiwei. Reward: Internal Energy!】
His Internal Energy strengthened once more.
With a cold laugh, Cheng Yu pointed the Xiuchun Saber at the corpse split into two.
“If you rebels cripple your own martial arts and surrender, I may leave you with an intact corpse!
“If you remain stubborn and still dream of rebellion, then you will end up like this man—one body splitting into two as you make your way down the road to the Yellow Springs!”
His domineering voice spread outward.
The eyes of the Prince Qing remnants nearly split with rage.
They recalled how, only a few days earlier, the bodies of Xiao Lin and Xiao Xiu that they had brought back were just as mangled.
For generations they had rebelled, yet when had they ever encountered soone so arrogant, so tyrannical, and so ruthless in his thods?
Xiao Qian was furious as well, but she was still trembling faintly.
Her horrific experience in the prison had left her far more fearful of Cheng Yu than the others.
She could only force down that fear and put on the bearing of a leader.
Grinding her teeth, she said, “A Seventh Rank martial artist cannot deal with him!”
The mont those words were spoken, Cheng Fang’s figure quietly retreated to the rear of the crowd.
There was no way he could make a move against Cheng Yu.
It was not because he was worried about losing.
It was because he knew—
if he won, that would be even worse. Then a truly great disaster would follow!
This was a bargain bound to end in ruin no matter what.
