Fufeng Yu shook his head, left the group of guards around him with a darkened face, and walked towards Emperor Shun with big steps.
"Shun!" Fufeng Yu solemnly bowed to Emperor Shun.
"Shun!" Ji Hao walked to Fufeng Yu and bowed to Emperor Shun as well. Before Fufeng Yu did, Ji Hao said with a cold and arrogant voice with a dark face, "I returned to Pu Ban City under your order, and I will follow your orders. How dare this old man be so rude to me?"
"So, you killed him?" Emperor Shun's eyes shone brightly as he shouted coldly.
"I … I am afraid!" Ji Hao straightened his waist and stared straight at Emperor Shun. He said the word 'afraid', but the look on his face clearly showed that he was provoking Emperor Shun loudly, 'I killed him, I beat him, what can you do to me?'
The group of ministers glanced at each other. They all knew Ji Hao. Normally, Ji Hao was never so arrogant, was he? On the contrary, before, Marquis Yao Ji Hao didn't get along with those arrogant human beings the most, but he himself was the most gentle and humble one.
Seeing Ji Hao's arrogant and careless face, a minister walked out of the crowd and said with a deep voice, "Shun, I'm afraid that Marquis Yao has just returned from the battlefield in the north. He has been fighting for too long, and the smell of blood and killing has made him lose his mind. That's why he talks so impulsively. Please forgive his rudeness."
Emperor Shun narrowed his eyes and looked at Ji Hao with a sullen face.
His eyes sparkled with a five-colored light. Occasionally, his pupils would expand to three to five times their normal size, but sometimes, they would shrink to the size of needle tips. His body tightened and relaxed from time to time, as a heavy pressure spread out from his body. Silently, thin cracks appeared on the thick flagstone by the gate of the Town Hall under his feet.
"Shun, please help me." Fufeng Yu narrowed his eyes and said harshly, "I didn't offend Marquis Yao, he …"
Ji Hao was standing right beside Fufeng Yu. Hearing Fufeng Yu, he swiftly launched a heavy punch with an abrupt punch.
The fist fiercely landed on Fufeng Yu's ribs and generated a muffled bang. Fufeng Yu's ribs didn't change at all, but the ribs on the other side of his body, right opposite to where Ji Hao's fist landed, exploded. Three two-inch-long ribs flew out of his body along with large streams of blood, flying hundreds of meters away along with a swishing noise.
A fist-sized hole appeared on Fufeng Yu's ribs, and blood gushed out like a fountain, quickly forming a pool of blood under his feet. The pain caused Fufeng Yu to howl in agony. He covered his wound with both hands as his knees went soft, causing him to kneel on the ground.
"You!" Emperor Shun's face paled in anger. He raised his hand and pointed at Ji Hao's nose.
"These brothers can testify for me. This old dog was extremely rude to me just now." Unhurriedly looking at Emperor Shun's finger, Ji Hao grinned to a group of human warriors standing in front of the Town Hall and said, "Where is Fufeng Clan from? I've never even heard of such a small clan. How dare he yell at me like that? Surely, I have to teach him a good lesson! "
Ji Hao looked at Emperor Shun coldly and said, "I want him to understand one thing. No matter where he comes from, no matter whether he's a human being or not, when he talks to me, he has to be humble and polite. Otherwise, he will be beaten!"
Fufeng Yu roared hoarsely. After all, he was a Divine Magus. His strong spirit blood power gathered around his wound, healing the fist-sized wound without leaving a trace.
He leaped up, pointed at Ji Hao, and yelled, "I was rude to you. Do you dare to kill me?"
Ji Hao turned around his palm and sent the Taiji divine sword straight down to Fufeng Yu's neck, leaving a dazzling stream of light in the air.
Fufeng Yu was frightened to the point of letting out a strange cry. He stomped on the ground with both of his legs, and a gust of wind burst out from his calves, bringing his body several hundred meters backward. Even though he moved fast, the Taiji divine sword almost brushed against his neck. A three-feet-long beam of sword light dazzled from the sword tip and swept across Fufeng Yu's chest. Suddenly, a foot-long slash appeared on Fufeng Yu's chest.
Blood spurted out along with internal organs. Once again, Fufeng Yu screamed hoarsely in pain.
He looked at Ji Hao, his eyes filled with fear and confusion — Why did Ji Hao dare to kill him in front of the Town Hall, right in front of Emperor Shun and all those senior ministers? No matter what, he was the leader of Fufeng Clan. He was the leader of a clan under Emperor Shun's command, and he came to Pu Ban City with his elite warriors under Emperor Shun's command!
Fufeng Clan was neither too powerful nor too weak. The entire clan had an area of over a hundred thousand miles in radius, over a hundred million people, over a million warriors who were good at fighting, and over ten Divine-Magus-level elders and commanders.
How could Ji Hao dare to kill such a leader of a clan in front of so many people?
Fufeng Yu had no doubt that if he didn't dodge fast enough, his head would have been chopped off by that sword move just now. Ji Hao was truly ruthless. He was truly here to kill.
"Emperor Shun!" Fufeng Yu looked at Emperor Shun helplessly, his voice sounding a bit pitiful and begging.
"You, you, you!" Emperor Shun's face turned blue in anger. "Guards!" growled Emperor Shun.
Before his voice faded, Ji Hao puffed out his chest and said proudly, "Emperor Shun, if you send people to capture me, don't blame me for detonating the Pan Jia sun and burning the entire Pu Ban City."
Emperor Shun paused instantly. Subconsciously, he raised his head, looked at the Pan Jia sun, which was floating in the sky, and yelled, "You!"
"You're so forgetful, aren't you?" Ji Hao chuckled and said, "This Pan Jia sun is a treasure of mine. Hehe, if I didn't give it to you, the food of all human clans in Pu Ban City and the surrounding areas would have been eaten up long ago, wouldn't it?"
Pointing at the Pan Jia sun, Ji Hao said slowly, "With this credit, killing Fufeng Yu is nothing to me."
Emperor Shun shut his mouth, hid his hands in his sleeves, and looked at Ji Hao with a dark look.
The group of ministers remained silent as well. They glanced at Emperor Shun, then at Ji Hao, wondering if Ji Hao was out of his mind, or if he was cursed by someone else. According to Ji Hao's usual temperament, how could he say something like that?
What confused them even more was Emperor Shun's attitude.
Before, Emperor Shun would never play dumb. If you made a mistake, he would certainly punish you, no matter how powerful your background was. If you made a contribution, he would certainly reward you, no matter who you offended.
But today, why was Emperor Shun behaving so strangely? Ji Hao's threat shouldn't work on him at all!
"Shun!" From the crowd, a few senior ministers walked out, seriously and confusedly looking at Emperor Shun.
Emperor Shun's eyes sparkled with a five-colored light. Abruptly, he opened his mouth and let out a mouthful of blood.
