The reason why the six-crowned burly man from the Magic Skills Guild didn't dare to make a move was because if he caused trouble here, even the Magic Skills Guild wouldn't be able to protect him. After all, the Central Plains Empire was the strongest country on the continent, and there was also a supreme expert, Heavenly Dipper Ji Changxin, in charge. The Magic Skills Guild wouldn't offend the Central Plains Empire for a six-crowned devil master like him.
The burly man had some misgivings, but Ji Dong had no misgivings. He stepped forward with his left foot and slapped his opponent with his right hand again. It was also a light palm strike.
Seeing Ji Dong raise his hand to slap him again, the burly man acted as if he had seen a ghost. He leaped back without hesitation, and in the blink of an eye, he was already ten meters away.
Ji Dong waved his sleeves as if he was swatting a fly and strode forward with his head held high, proudly ignoring the three opponents surrounding him.
The two powerful auras behind him moved at the same time. It was obvious that Ji Dong's actions had angered them. The left side was sharp, and the right side was scorching. Two streams of air appeared at the same time. Ji Dong didn't need to use his eyes to see to feel that the two people had raised their hands at the same time and were grabbing at his waist.
With Ji Dong's strength, how could he let them catch him? His footsteps suddenly changed. Including the burly man who was rapidly retreating, the three people from the Magic Skills Guild felt their vision blur. Ji Dong seemed to be still there, but the two people who were attacking from behind were all caught in the air.
With a sweep of his elbows, an incomparably terrifying aura suddenly erupted from Ji Dong's body and blasted towards the two people at the same time. What made them even more terrified was that the powerful pressure emitted by Ji Dong's body was actually limited to them. It didn't affect any of the pedestrians around them at all. This control of his own aura caused them to turn pale with fright.
Since the burly man dared to cause trouble for Ji Dong, he naturally had nothing to fear. This was because the two people he brought were both Seven Crown Heavenly Master level powerhouses. They were also ranked high in the Magic Skill Guild.
However, although the demonic power of the Seven Crowns was strong, when they faced the aura of the Ultimate Dual Flames that Ji Dong released without reservation, the elemental suppression appeared almost instantaneously. With Ji Dong's current strength, there were only two possibilities to not be suppressed by his elemental suppression. One was to reach the Nine Crowns level and become a Supreme Master. Their strength would be far above Ji Dong's and they would also possess the Ultimate Demonic Power. The other was to be like the Heavenly Stem Saint and Ah Jin, who already possessed the Ultimate Demonic Power. Only then would they not be suppressed by his Ultimate Demonic Power. However, how many of these two situations would occur in this continent?
The attribute suppression caused the two seven-crown devil masters to groan at the same time. The demonic power in their bodies flowed out. Although they both raised their hands to block Ji Dong's elbows, they groaned again. The Geng Metal element devil master on the left was a little better. He was only knocked back five steps by Ji Dong's elbow. The blood in his body was surging, and he desperately urged the Geng Metal demonic power to resist Ji Dong's ultimate Yang Fire. On the other side, Heavenly Master Bing Huo was miserable. The attribute suppression of the same attribute was always the most terrifying. Ji Dong's elbows were filled with the ultimate Yang Fire.
The flame of the same origin, the ultimate existence, in addition to Ji Dong's tyrannical self-created skill, the Fire Demon Devour, almost in an instant, his defense was broken. Not only was his body pushed back, but his face became blood-red. With a cry, he spat out a mouthful of blood and turned into a ball of fire in the air, causing the passersby to turn pale with fright.
If it was a real battle, it would take some effort for Ji Dong to defeat these two seven-crown level devil masters. But now, on the street, they did not dare to use their devil skills, and they could not fully release their demonic power. In addition, Ji Dong's attribute suppression came suddenly, and they immediately suffered a great loss.
Ji Dong acted as if nothing had happened. He flicked his sleeves and continued to walk forward. Only his voice remained in the ears of the three devil masters of the Devil Skill Guild at the same time. "The seven-crown won't do, call the eight-crown, there's still hope."
The six-crown burly man watched dumbfounded as Ji Dong walked past him, but he did not dare to stop him. He had seen what happened to his two seven-crown companions, so how could he dare to stop Ji Dong? Although he wanted revenge, compared to an arm, his life was obviously more important.
Ji Dong did not care about the three people's obstruction at all. Soon, he found his second destination of the day.
In the distance, the tall courtyard wall was already in sight. The courtyard wall was at least three feet tall, like a small city wall. The wall was completely golden, and the glazed tiles on it reflected a seven-colored radiance under the sunlight. Even the walls of the imperial palace of the Central Plains could not compare. On the wall, there was a sentry every three steps, and a sentry every five steps. They were all patrolling soldiers in full armor. The black armor exuded a steady and heavy aura, giving people a sense of oppression.
The lofty gatehouse was over fifty feet tall, and on both sides of the gatehouse stood ten fully armored warriors, guarding the place. The gate was wide open, but one could only see the tall screen wall, which was engraved with totems of the Fifth Earth and Sixth Earth element.
Above the gate tower, there were four dazzling golden words. It was the Prince Equivalent's Residence.
The imperial palace of the Central Plains Empire was on the Fifth Earth Avenue, while the Prince Equivalent's Residence was located on the Sixth Earth Avenue.
If one was a foreign visitor and did not know, it would be easy to confuse the two. Because in all aspects, the Prince Equivalent's Residence was not inferior to the imperial palace.
Ji Dong strode toward the gate tower of the Prince Equivalent's Residence. This was his second destination of the day.
Before he could get close, two black iron spears that were as thick as an infant's arm appeared in front of him, blocking his way.
"What are you doing? Can't you see that this is the Prince Equivalent's Residence? Move further away, "a soldier in full armor shouted angrily.
A sharp aura enveloped Ji Dong's entire body. It seemed as if if he moved rashly, the two black iron spears would leave two holes in his body.
Ji Dong did not plan to clash with them. He stopped and said, "I'm here to find someone. Call Ji Dong out. Tell him that Ji Dong is here to visit."
Although Ji Dong's clothes were ordinary, just by standing there, he had a kind of intimidating aura. Especially when they heard that his surname was Ji, the two warriors didn't dare to be negligent and retracted their spears at the same time. The warrior who spoke before said in a deep voice, "Please wait here for a moment." After saying that, he directly ran towards the gate.
Not long after, the black-armored soldier came out and said, "I've already informed the internal affairs. Please wait a moment."
Ji Dong nodded silently. He was not in a hurry. The sun was only halfway up in Gangzhou, and there was still some distance to go before it reached the center of the sky. Although there had been some twists and turns today, everything had gone smoothly.
He had come to find Ji Yeshang so that Ji Yeshang could take him to his mother-in-law's grave. He did not know where the grave was, so he could only ask this cheap big brother for guidance.
Ji Dong did not have to wait for long. After a while, he heard footsteps coming from the Prince of Equality's residence, and there seemed to be some chaos.
Inside the gatehouse, a person walked out from behind the screen wall and strode out of the gatehouse. His appearance immediately shocked everyone, including Ji Dong.
"Prince of Equality, nine thousand years old." All the black-armored soldiers knelt on the ground in unison, kneeling on both knees. Only the spears in their hands were still upright. From their movements, it could be seen that these soldiers had gone through long periods of training, and they all had the bloody aura of battle.
It was not just the soldiers in front of the gate tower who knelt. Even the patrolling soldiers on the courtyard walls knelt on the ground. For a moment, the loud cries attracted the attention of passersby on the main road. Then, aside from Ji Dong, the passersby also knelt in this direction and shouted, "Prince of Equality, nine thousand years old."
That's right, the person who had appeared in front of the Prince of Equality's residence and walked out of the gate tower was the current Prince of Equality, Ji Yunsheng, whose status and power were not inferior to the Emperor of the Middle Earth Empire.
The first time Ji Dong saw Ji Yunsheng, it was when the siblings Yin Zhaoyang and Yin Zhaorong were intimidating the Middle Earth Empire. At that time, Prince of Equality, Ji Yunsheng, was one of the four heavyweights representing the Middle Earth Empire. He stood together with Emperor Ji Yunlu, Dean of the Heavenly Stem Academy, Ji Mingxuan, and Big Dipper Ji Changxin. His status was illustrious. At that time, Ji Dong had only taken a quick glance at Ji Yunsheng, but the feeling that Ji Yunsheng gave him could only be described as profound.
Now that he saw Ji Yunsheng again, he looked like he was in his fifties, but his actual age was already over seventy. There were a few streaks of white at his temples. When he saw Ji Dong outside the gate, this powerful Prince of Equality could not help but reveal an agitated expression. Pursing his lips slightly, Ji Yunsheng took a deep breath. Hyōhime said, "Come with me." With that, she turned and walked into the Prince of Equality's residence.
Ji Dong frowned slightly, but he still followed. Since he was already here, he might as well take things as they came. Although he did not expect to see this grandfather, since he had already seen him, he would not choose to escape.
Only when Ji Dong also walked into the Prince of Equality's residence did the group of soldiers slowly rise to their feet. For a moment, they looked at each other. However, they were well-trained and naturally would not say anything.
However, it was different for the ordinary commoners. They stood not far from the Prince of Equality's residence and discussed spiritedly. Naturally, the most discussed topic was Ji Dong's identity. How many people in the world could make the Prince of Equality personally come out to welcome him? Especially in the Middle Earth Empire, even if the Emperor personally came, he might not be able to achieve this.
After walking into the Prince of Equality's residence, Ji Dong immediately felt his eyes widen. There was no scene of flowers or decorations in the Prince of Equality's residence. There were only tall and majestic buildings. All the plants in the residence were trees, and they were all towering trees. From the looks of it, even the smallest one was over a hundred years old. These large trees added to the dignified atmosphere of the Prince of Equality's residence.
The Prince of Equality, Ji Yunsheng, walked at the front with a majestic gait, while Ji Dong followed behind him. Everywhere they passed, all the soldiers in the Prince's Mansion knelt on the ground. Ji Dong was shocked to discover that he did not see a single servant in the Prince's Mansion. All he saw were warriors in armor, and there were even quite a few of them who emitted magical ripples.
It could be said that the Prince of Equality was completely different from what Ji Dong had imagined. There was not the slightest bit of extravagance and debauchery. On the contrary, everything he saw was filled with an iron-blooded elegance. It was as if he was on the battlefield and the Marshal's residence after the army had set up camp. Seeing this, Ji Dong couldn't help but nod inwardly.
It was indeed unusual for the Prince of Equality to be able to stand up to the current royal family. Ji Yeshang had previously said that he had been adopted into the royal family and had become the new crown prince. In the future, the Prince of Equality's authority in the entire empire would probably be even greater.
Ji Yunsheng's pace was neither fast nor slow. He walked in front, and after a while, they passed through two courtyards and arrived at the main hall.
The main hall was very spacious. On both sides were two rows of large chairs made of redwood. In the main seat at the front, there was only one large chair made of sandalwood. Upon entering, the first thing that Ji Dong felt was an austere atmosphere. There was none of the grandeur and luxury that a prince's residence should have. This was the main hall? With the Prince of Equality's status, shouldn't he at least have a small palace? Everything was shockingly simple. It was even more simple than any of the nobles that Ji Dong had seen before. This Prince of Equality's residence could only be described as austere.
Now, Ji Dong was beginning to understand why his father in this world was so fed up with life in the Prince of Equality's residence. Living in a place like this was extremely dry and dull. At the same time, he had to shoulder such a heavy mission and pressure. How could someone who was not mentally strong possibly endure it?
The Prince of Equality, Ji Yunsheng, walked into the main hall and stopped. He did not walk to the innermost chair made of sandalwood. Instead, he walked to the center of the main hall and slowly turned around.
Ji Dong also stopped five meters away from him. He looked at his grandfather, who seemed to be filled with a profound aura.
"You've come to find Yeshang?" Ji Yunsheng's voice was somewhat low.
Ji Dong nodded. He did not hide his purpose in coming here. He said, "I want to ask him to take me to pay respects to my parents."
Ji Yunsheng's eyes flashed and he said, "You've thought it through?"
Ji Dong frowned slightly and said, "Please don't misunderstand. As a son, it is natural for me to pay respects to my parents. Apart from this, I have no other purpose."
"I am your grandfather." Ji Yunsheng's voice suddenly grew louder, and his beard and hair stood on end. An extremely sharp aura suddenly burst forth from his body. It was not just the pressure emitted by demonic power, but also the majesty of an emperor. This pressure was much more powerful and vast than the murderous aura that Ajin had given Ji Dong yesterday. At this moment, Ji Yunsheng gave him the feeling that in this world, he was the ruler of the world.
Ji Dong did not speak. He only looked at Ji Yunsheng quietly. The monstrous pressure automatically dissipated when it reached him. It had no effect on him at all. Indistinctly, two illusory figures that were also filled with the aura of an emperor slowly appeared behind him. He did not retaliate, but at this moment, the proud will emitted from his body forcefully broke through Ji Yunsheng's emperor's deterrence.
The Flame Tyrant and the Dark Flame Devil King were also sovereigns. How could the pressure released by Ji Yunsheng affect Ji Dong?
