It was impossible for them to become enemies with Xiao Chen. Otherwise, as long as Xiao Chen gave the order, the East Sword Pavilion would not hesitate to annihilate the Mo Family. There was no doubt that in the eyes of the East Sword Pavilion's higher-ups, a hundred Mo Families were not comparable to one Xiao Chen.
They were close to despair. At the same time, Xiao Chen had arrived at the Imperial Capital with the speed of the Green Feather Eagle in less than four hours after setting off from Lingshan County City.
As the capital of a country, the Imperial Capital of Lingfeng Country was indeed very prosperous. If it was in the past, Xiao Chen might have taken a second look at it. However, after going to Shangri-La, the Imperial Capital of Lingfeng Country was nothing special in Xiao Chen's eyes.
Humans were like this. When you stood at a different height, the world in your eyes would be different. For example, in the eyes of ordinary warriors, Lingfeng Country might be their everything. Qiong Qi would probably never leave the territory of Lingfeng Country.
However, Xiao Chen was different. In Xiao Chen's eyes, Lingfeng Country was just a small place. Even the Eastern Sun Region was just his starting point. His world was the vast and boundless Heavenly Chen Continent, the Central Divine Region where heroes were born.
Without any hesitation, he rode the Green Feather Eagle and flew directly to King Wu's residence.
Several Green Feather Eagles flew into the Imperial Capital, which naturally attracted the attention of many people.
"Who are these people? Why are they so arrogant? How dare they ride a flying monster into the Imperial Capital? Aren't they afraid of being hunted down by the imperial guards? "Looking at the Green Feather Eagles in the sky, a young man from an aristocratic family shouted coldly.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the old man at the side hurriedly covered his mouth and said softly, "Don't worry.
"Young Master, don't talk nonsense. These people are not people we can afford to offend. Even the imperial family would not dare to offend them. Look at the monster they are riding. That is a Green Feather Eagle. They are from the East Sword Pavilion …"
Having lived for a long time, the old man was naturally more knowledgeable. At a glance, he recognized that these people were from the East Sword Pavilion.
Hearing the old man's words, the young man was so scared that he started to sweat cold sweat. He no longer dared to speak nonsense. What a joke. If the people from the Eastern Sword Pavilion were to offend them, they would definitely be killed.
Their target was very clear. It was the Martial Imperial Manor. At the same time that Xiao Chen and the rest entered the imperial city, the imperial guards immediately reported the news to Mo Yao. Upon hearing that the people from the Eastern Sword Pavilion had arrived, King Wu immediately slumped onto the ground. His face was ashen as he spoke incoherently.
"It's over. It's really over this time. East Sword Pavilion …"
The people from the Eastern Sword Pavilion had really come. This time, they were dead for sure. Mo Yao glanced at the Martial King who had been scared out of his wits. He had no other choice but to hope that Xiao Chen would be magnanimous.
There was no other way. Soon, after the Martial Imperial Manor learned that the Martial King was in the imperial palace, Xiao Chen and the rest arrived at the imperial palace. Along the way, no one dared to stop them. They directly arrived at the Lingfeng Palace. Here, Xiao Chen finally saw the pale-faced King Wu and the Lingfeng Country's Emperor, Mo Yao.
"Greetings, seniors. Greetings, Your Highness …" Facing Xiao Chen and the rest, Mo Yao respectfully greeted. Facing this, Xiao Chen didn't say a word. He directly walked past Mo Yao and arrived before the Martial King, looking at him indifferently.
Sensing Xiao Chen's actions, Mo Yao's heart instantly sank. He thought to himself: Is there still no way to escape this calamity? It was no wonder. As one of the Five Hidden Dragons, how could Xiao Chen not have any pride in his heart? Such a person might be very peaceful normally, but once you provoked him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
He calmly sized up the Martial King. Facing Xiao Chen's gaze, the Martial King's legs turned to jelly and he immediately knelt before Xiao Chen.
The Martial King, who was second only to the Emperor of Lingfeng and above tens of thousands of people, was actually kneeling before a young man who was only 19 years old. Of course, even if outsiders were to witness this scene, no one would mock the Martial King because Xiao Chen was one of the Five Hidden Dragons. Not to mention the Martial King, if he really angered Xiao Chen, even Mo Yao would have to kneel, let alone the Martial King.
Without saying a word, just when everyone thought that Xiao Chen was going to suppress the Martial King in a thunderous manner, Xiao Chen finally spoke.
"According to what you've done, I should have killed you directly. It wouldn't be too much even if I killed your entire family. However, I know that you are Mo Jie's uncle. Today, I will give you a chance. Cripple your own cultivation and I will spare your life …"
Xiao Chen had long known about the relationship between Mo Jie and the Martial King. Moreover, along the way, he had also seen the changes in Mo Jie's expression. He knew that Mo Jie was in a dilemma. On one side was his uncle, and on the other was himself. It was indeed difficult for Mo Jie to choose.
It was precisely because of Mo Jie's face that Xiao Chen gave the Martial King a way out. However, while he could avoid the death penalty, he couldn't escape punishment. Crippling his own cultivation was already Xiao Chen's bottom line.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Mo Yao, who was behind him, heaved a sigh of relief. Although crippling one's own cultivation was tragic, no matter what, his life was saved.
No one dared to speak. Everyone was waiting for the Martial King's reply. The entire Lingfeng Palace fell into a short period of silence.
"Many thanks to Your Highness Hidden Dragon for not killing me …" After a long while, the Martial King took a deep breath and respectfully thanked Xiao Chen. With that said, the Martial King crippled his own cultivation in front of everyone. A powerhouse of the Heaven Realm cultivation base was instantly turned into an ordinary person.
"This time, it was because of Mo Jie's face. If there is a next time, not only you, but the entire Mo Family will be buried with you." Seeing the Martial King cripple his own cultivation, Xiao Chen said indifferently. While speaking, he inadvertently glanced at Mo Yao. Obviously, Xiao Chen's words were directed at Mo Yao.
"Yes, Your Highness Hidden Dragon, don't worry. In the future, such a thing will never happen again …" Mo Yao respectfully nodded and replied.
After dealing with the Martial King, Xiao Chen's group left on the Green Feather Eagle and headed straight back to the East Sword Pavilion.
Xiao Chen wasn't in the mood and didn't have much time to waste on the Mo Family. Now that the Martial King had received the punishment he deserved, the Mo Family wouldn't dare to lay a finger on the Xiao Family anymore. As such, Xiao Chen's goal had been achieved. As for the next step, it was time to prepare for the Hundred Spirits Graveyard. After all, that was the most important thing for him.
Along the way, Mo Jie wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he mustered the courage to speak to Xiao Chen. "Xiao Chen, thank you …"
Of course, he was referring to Xiao Chen sparing the Martial King's life. Upon hearing his words, Xiao Chen smiled. "We are friends. Although the Mo Family was involved in this matter, I don't wish for it to affect our relationship."
"Yes, I know. But don't worry, nothing like this will happen again. I promise." Upon hearing Xiao Chen's words, Mo Jie heaved a sigh of relief. Previously, he was worried that this matter would affect their relationship. But now, it seemed that he was overthinking. Xiao Chen wasn't an indiscriminate person.
