"Rise. May I enter now?"
Ling Xiao asked as he looked at the guard captain.
"Sword Empress Goldenphoenix," the guard replied. "A few days ago, His Highness the Crown Prince returned and issued orders that anyone who enters Sword God City will be subject to strict scrutiny.
Please don't make things difficult for us. "
"What a brat.
"That stinking brat has grown up. In the past, I even peed on him. Now, he actually dares to stop me from entering?
You might be afraid of him, but aren't you afraid of me? "
Ling Xiao said coldly.
It was only natural that Yang Qi had learned from Sword Empress Goldenphoenix.
Sword Empress Goldenphoenix had been like that when she had first come to Sword God City.
If Yang Qi did as he was told, it would only raise suspicions.
"Sword Empress Goldenphoenix, please don't make things difficult for me."
The guard captain frowned.
"I won't make things difficult for you. However, I'm here to deliver the Eldest Princess' ashes to the imperial tomb. Let's see how many heads you'll be able to chop off.
Not even that brat Dugu Shengjian would dare to do something like this. "
Ling Xiao didn't make a move. He simply looked at the guard captain with an enigmatic smile.
"Please don't be angry, Sword Empress Goldenphoenix," Yang Qi said coolly. "I was muddle-headed. Let me in!"
These gatekeepers also looked down on people with dog eyes.
The only reason they dared to stop Sword Empress Goldenphoenix was because the Goldenphoenix Sword Palace hadn't joined Sword God Hall yet.
And yet, they didn't dare to stop the Eldest Princess' ashes. After all, she was a relative of the imperial family.
Furthermore, she was the younger sister of Sword God Hall.
Speaking of which, a box of ashes was more important than the face of the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor. It was quite funny.
Chuckling inwardly, Ling Xiao entered Sword God City through a side gate.
Normally speaking, only people with true status were allowed to enter through the side gate.
However, as soon as he entered the city, he caught sight of someone approaching.
It was a woman, dressed in red.
She was very pretty, but her expression was one of disdain, as if everyone owed her money.
Shockingly, she was a sword emperor in the second division of the Lifeseizing level.
Ling Xiao sighed in his heart. Indeed, Dugu Shengjian's words weren't false. The strength of Sword Dynasty wasn't as simple as it seemed.
Just this woman alone had the strength of a Sword Emperor. Who knew if he would encounter a Sword Saint after entering.
It seemed that a disguise was absolutely necessary.
"Who is he?"
The woman asked the captain of the guards.
"Lord Hong Yu, this man is the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor, the Palace Master of the Gold Phoenix Sword Palace."
The guard captain hurriedly replied.
"Have you checked it?"
Hong Yu asked again.
"Reporting to Lady Hong Yu, the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor is carrying the Eldest Princess's urn, we …"
Before the captain could finish his words, he was interrupted by the woman.
"I'm not talking nonsense. Did you check it?"
"No!"
"Damn it!"
Hong Yu raised the whip in her hand and lashed it at the captain's head.
This was an expert at the level of a Sword Emperor. Although the guard captain wasn't weak, he was only at the first revolution of the Yin Yang Realm, level 18 of Hell.
If he was really hit by this whip, he would definitely die.
"Lady, isn't your temper a bit too big?"
Ling Xiao sneered and suddenly reached out. He grabbed the end of the whip and said, "If I let you kill him, will I, the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor, still have face?
Will the Eldest Princess still have face? "
"Let go!"
Hong Yu yelled, "Do you know who I am?"
"I don't care who you are. Other than the Sword God and the Old Ancestor, I won't give face to anyone."
Ling Xiao sneered and said, "Looking at your outfit, you're most likely that kid Dugu Shengjian's Red Gem Guard.
I've heard that kid doesn't seem to be interested in women, but deep down, he's the same as his uncle, the Unfettered King.
He keeps a lot of young girls around him, and they are all quite strong.
I'm afraid you're one of the best in the Red Gem Guard, right? "
"Since you know, why don't you let go? You dare to provoke the Crown Prince's people?"
Hong Yu said angrily.
"Bah! Others think he's the Crown Prince, but I think he's a fart. How dare he shout at me when his hair isn't even fully grown. "
As Ling Xiao spoke, he suddenly exerted force in his hand. A force passed through the whip and sent Hong Yu flying.
"You can't move your arms anymore. Go back and tell Dugu Shengjian that if he wants to show off, wait until he sits on the throne. He's just a Crown Prince. Who knows when he'll be deposed.
Don't be so smug! "
After he finished speaking, he left.
Many of the people near the city gate were dumbfounded when they saw this scene.
He dared to deal with the Red Gem Guard on the street. If this person wasn't crazy, then he must have some background.
After entering the city, Ling Xiao realized that Dugu Shengjian's words weren't false.
It was rumored that only those at the first revolution of the Yin Yang Realm and above could live in the Sword God City.
Even the relatives of the court officials could only live in the satellite cities if they weren't strong enough.
There were four satellite cities in the Sword God City. They weren't as big as the Sword God City, and the Spirit Qi here wasn't as abundant.
Anyone in the Sword God City could be a tyrant in a small country like the Eight Immortals Kingdom.
Even in most of the sects in the Sword Dynasty, they would definitely be top-notch figures.
This was why the Sword Dynasty was able to stand tall.
The experts were all selected and tamed by them. Who could resist them?
After passing through the outer city, Ling Xiao went straight to the inner city.
The Bloodthirsty Sword Tomb was in the inner city. Ling Xiao's goal was clear. He had to rescue Falling Moon and the 18th Sword.
As for Jian Luoying, he could only wait and see.
The guards in the inner city were even stronger. With a Sword Sovereign guarding the door, it wouldn't be easy for ordinary people to break in.
The people here were much more perceptive.
When they saw the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor, they hurriedly let him in.
In fact, the security in the inner city was much looser than the outer city.
It was mainly because the martial artists living in the inner city were at least at the peak of the first revolution of the Yin Yang Realm.
Even if someone broke in, they wouldn't be able to come out.
Holding the urn, the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor was unimpeded and arrived at the Golden Imperial Palace.
Here, the royal family members led by the Sword God were discussing the marriage of the Carefree King and some other confidential matters.
When they heard someone report that the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor had arrived.
They all shut their mouths.
The Sword God Dugu Bajian had a domineering aura that was very similar to the Dugu Shengjian. However, he was obviously more vicious.
Compared to the Dugu Shengjian, he had an additional sense of mystery that made people wary.
Although he didn't release any True Yuan, he already had a majestic aura just by sitting casually on the throne.
"You're here."
Dugu Bajian said faintly when he saw the Gold Phoenix Sword Emperor.
"Your Majesty, this is the Princess Royal's ashes. It's a pity that we couldn't kill Ling Xiao and avenge the Princess Royal."
Ling Xiao carried the urn with both hands. Naturally, someone came to take it.
"You don't have to worry about revenge. Since you're here, stay in the Sword God City for the time being. You can't be absent from the wedding of the Carefree King."
