"Fiancé, I knew you would come."
After dealing with Shang Han, Princess Linglong walked up to Chu Kuangren and looked at her sweetheart with uncontrollable joy in her eyes.
"Yes, are you alright?" Chu Kuangren asked.
"Fiancé, your Spring Breeze Healing Technique is quite extraordinary. I'm fine now." Princess Linglong smiled.
"That's good."
Then, Chu Kuangren looked at the Heaven's Halberd that was stuck in the ground not far away. He raised his hand, channeled his spiritual power, and pulled it towards him.
The Heaven's Halberd had been refined by Shang Han, but since Shang Han was dead, the mark on it had disappeared. It was now an ownerless item again.
Everyone looked at the Boundary Emperor Weapon with fiery eyes.
After all, it was a Boundary Emperor Weapon with boundless power.
Although Shang Han was a Young Emperor, his strength was not much stronger than an Honorable. However, with the help of this Boundary Emperor Weapon, his combat strength was comparable to a Sage's. That alone showed how rare this Boundary Emperor Weapon was.
What if it was used by an Honorable Supreme or even a Sage?
Would their combat strength not skyrocket?!
However, now that the Boundary Emperor Weapon was in Chu Kuangren's hands, they would not dare to snatch it even if they were given ten guts.
…
Inside the royal palace.
The Royal Azure Dynasty King had prepared a banquet to welcome Chu Kuangren.
"Fiancé, are you really planning to go to the Shang clan?"
The Royal Azure Dynasty King asked.
"Of course. I've already made my promise, so how can I go back on it?"
Chu Kuangren chuckled.
"No matter what, the Shang clan is still a sage orthodoxy. Won't it be too dangerous for you to go there so recklessly?"
"The sixteen thousand lives of the Horizon Wing Sect must not be in vain."
Chu Kuangren said.
The million-strong Tormented Army was released because of Shang Han, and the Horizon Wing Sect suffered countless casualties. As the leader of the Horizon Wing Sect, the Black Heaven Sect had to demand an explanation from the Shang clan. Otherwise, who would be willing to follow the Black Heaven Sect?
"Fiancé, since you've made up your mind, I shall not stop you. However, I do have something to discuss with you."
"You and I are a family. Please speak, father."
When Chu Kuangren addressed him as' father ', Princess Linglong was elated. The Royal Azure Dynasty King was also beaming with joy.
"It's like this. I'm about to undergo Heavenly Ascension, and I heard that the Black Heaven Sect has a Heavenly Ascension Artifact that can guide the energy of the Heavenly Tribulation. I wonder if I could borrow it?" The Royal Azure Dynasty Ruler asked.
The weapon he was referring to was none other than the Thundersoother Rod that Honorable Xuan Qi had used during his tribulation.
"Of course, that won't be a problem. I'll send a message to Elder Ruyan later and have her send someone over the Thundersoother Rod. Besides that, once the Shang clan's matter is settled, I'll refine a few medicinal pills for you to ensure that your ascension will go smoothly," Chu Kuangren said.
"That's great!" The Royal Azure Dynasty Ruler was overjoyed.
He had long heard of Chu Kuangren's alchemy skills. If he could obtain the assistance of Chu Kuangren's medicinal pills, his chances of surviving the ascension would greatly increase. At that thought, the more he thought of Chu Kuangren, the more he liked him.
Choosing to marry Chu Kuangren back then was the best decision he had ever made. Even the Royal Azure Dynasty Ruler did not expect Chu Kuangren to achieve so much in such a short period of time.
After staying in the Royal Azure Palace for a day.
Chu Kuangren then headed to the Shang clan.
…
Inside the Scarlet Phoenix Domain.
The Shang clan.
When Shang Han's protector returned with Shang Han's head, the entire Shang clan was shocked and enraged.
"This Chu Kuangren is too arrogant!"
"How dare he kill a Young Emperor just for the lives of a few people from the Horizon Wing Sect. This b * stard really is a lunatic."
"That's right. Does he know what kind of consequences this will bring? Is he trying to start a war between the orthodoxies?"
"Hmph, let's fight then. Does he really think we're afraid of him?!"
"Don't let your guard down."
In the great hall, the upper echelons of the Shang clan were furious at Chu Kuangren for killing Shang Han, but there were also some who were worried.
"Alright, let's quickly discuss our strategy."
At that moment, a voice interrupted the crowd's discussion.
A middle-aged man with a square face spoke. This person was the Shang Clan Leader, who was also Shang Han's father.
He was the angriest when Shang Han was killed. However, as the Clan Leader, he knew very well that the current situation was too serious for him to lose his mind.
The crowd gradually calmed down.
"Chu Kuangren's strength is not to be underestimated. Two of the Murong clan's Sages were killed by him in the past, and now they've become an Honorable Orthodoxy. In my opinion, we shouldn't fight him head-on."
One of the elders said.
He was one of the more clear-headed people there. He knew that Chu Kuangren was not to be trifled with. If they were to fight him head-on, both sides would suffer.
"If we can't fight him head-on, are we supposed to give in to him? Chu Kuangren has killed a Young Emperor, and if we give in to him, wouldn't we be humiliated? Besides, even if we give in, how can you guarantee that Chu Kuangren will let it go?"
Another elder objected.
"That's right. Everyone knows how the Murong clan's Sages died. Just because of one disciple, Chu Kuangren dared to attack the Murong clan and kill two of their Sages. He's a lunatic."
"If we don't prepare, we'll end up the same way."
"That's not necessarily the case. Murong Xuan is Chu Kuangren's Junior Brother, so it's understandable that he would do such a thing for his Junior Brother. Besides, the Horizon Wing Sect is just an affiliated force. Even if some of their disciples died, I don't think they'll go all out against us."
"That makes sense …"
The crowd discussed among themselves and came up with various countermeasures.
In the end, they decided to wait and see what Chu Kuangren would do first. They would deal with him later, but they had to be prepared to fight at any time.
In an instant, the entire Shang clan was in action.
Even the Sage behind the Shang clan was on high alert!
On this day.
A majestic Illusive Mirage arrived above the Shang clan.
The Shang Clan Leader and the elders all rushed out.
"What a gigantic Fairy boat!"
"I can't believe the Black Heaven Sect has such a treasure."
The gigantic Illusive Mirage hovered above the Shang clan. All the cultivators in the Shang clan's territory were shocked when they saw it.
Those who knew the inside story were even more serious.
They knew.
There was a person on that Illusive Mirage.
A person who could turn the Shang clan upside down!
"He's finally here."
"I wonder if the Shang clan can survive this ordeal."
"Chu Kuangren, I'd like to see how arrogant he can be."
Deep within the Shang clan.
On a mountain peak, an old man who was sitting cross-legged suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the Illusive Mirage with a cold look in his eyes.
"Chu Kuangren, I hope you don't cross the line. Otherwise, the Shang clan will be your burial ground."
That old man was the Shang clan's only Sage.
Although there was only one Sage, most of the sage orthodoxies dared not underestimate the Shang clan. That was because this Sage was very powerful, much more powerful than the Sages behind most sage orthodoxies.
The Shang clan's Sage was already prepared for Chu Kuangren's visit this time. Even if a conflict were to break out between them, he was confident that he could defeat Chu Kuangren here!
Chu Kuangren left Lan Yu in the Illusive Mirage while he entered the Shang clan's territory alone.
The disciples looked at him, shocked by his appearance and aura. At the same time, they were also fearful and prepared for battle.
