Jianchen calmed himself down and picked up the Space Rings that the Situ and Ma Teng had dropped. Afterward, he flew back into the sky and met up with Ruijin and the others. He said, "Senior Ruijin, I'll be going to the Felicity Empire soon. Please construct a Space Gate."
Ruijin did not turn down Jianchen's request. He agreed without any hesitation and said, "I just happen to have seen the locations of the three great empires on the Tian Yuan Continent, so I know their exact locations." With that, Ruijin extended a finger and casually swiped at the space before him. Space immediately ripped open, quickly forming a Space Gate.
Jianchen stared at Ruijin's simple action without blinking. His eyes shone brightly as he sank into his thoughts. He already knew that once he reached the partial achievement of the Chaotic Body, his future breakthroughs would no longer be so smooth. He needed to comprehend the laws of the world every time he broke through, so he was especially serious when he watched Ruijin rip open space.
"Not only does senior Ruijin's ability to rip open space contain the comprehension of space, but it also contains the control of energy. Space is also a type of law, and energy has its own way as well. Looks like we've already begun to come in contact with laws as Saint Rulers, but we've only come in contact with the surface, "Jianchen murmured inside as he sank into his thoughts.
"Once I deal with the matters on hand, I'll immediately go to Mercenary City and get Xiao Ling to demonstrate the mysteries of the world for me to comprehend. I'll do my best to increase my strength."
With the Space Gate formed, Jianchen, Ruijin, the others, and the four protectors of the Bloodsword sect immediately vanished from the sky above the Kingdom of Longqi. You Yue had been sent into the artifact space by Jianchen while he was fighting the Holy Emperor.
The Felicity Empire was one of the three great empires on the Tian Yuan Continent. It possessed a long history and possessed two of the seven renowned capital cities of the Tian Yuan Continent. They were the Celestial Star Imperial City and the Thunder City. The Celestial Star Imperial City was the imperial capital of the Felicity Empire, where the imperial palace was located.
As the imperial capital of the Felicity Empire and one of the seven great capital cities of the Tian Yuan Continent, the prosperity of the Tiangang Royal City went without saying. The city was filled with organisations. There were countless clans of various sizes, and experts were as dense as clouds.
However, there was an exception. Although the Celestial Star Imperial City was filled with all sorts of people, it was extremely safe. Fights rarely occurred.
Jianchen, Ruijin, and the others directly appeared above the Celestial Star Imperial City through the Space Gate. They hovered in the air and looked down at the ground below. With a rough glance, they found the imperial palace and immediately flew toward it.
At this moment, in the Felicity Empire's imperial palace, within a majestic hall, the pale-faced Fang Yan and Taji, the two Imperial Protectors who had just fled from the Kingdom of Longqi, were sitting cross-legged on a praying mat with their eyes closed as they adjusted their breathing. Opposite the two of them was a middle-aged man with a medium build, dressed in a gorgeous gold-plated robe. He sat there with a gloomy expression on his face. His sharp eyes were filled with anger as he glanced at Fang Yan and Taji.
The middle-aged man was extremely handsome. Moreover, he gave off a unique aura of an emperor. He was filled with dignity.
He was one of the Imperial Protectors of the Felicity Empire. His strength surpassed Fang Yan and Taji, having reached the peak of the Seventh Heavenly Layer of the Holy Emperor. At the same time, he was the emperor of the Felicity Empire who had abdicated many years ago, so he was a member of the imperial family.
"The Bloodsword Sect is far too arrogant. They actually dared to injure my Felicity Empire's Imperial Protector. How preposterous. Moreover, I can feel that the Imperial Protector's aura has already vanished. He must have met with some mishap. Hmph, the Bloodsword Sect has gone too far. Do they really think that they can trample on the dignity of the Felicity Empire just because they have Houston behind them?" The middle-aged man was indescribably furious as he let out a deep roar.
The Felicity Empire was one of the three great empires of the Tian Yuan Continent. Even among ancient clans, there were very few people who could match up to them. Obviously, their dignity was more important than anything else. The Bloodsword sect had heavily injured two of their Imperial Protectors without any regard for the consequences and even killed one of them. This was not something that the Felicity Empire could accept.
At the same time, the Holy Emperor was a peak power of the Felicity Empire. Luo Duo's death was an extremely heavy loss to the Felicity Empire because even with the entire Felicity Empire in perspective, there were only a handful of experts who had reached the level of the Holy Emperor. Experts like that could not be obtained just because they wanted to.
The middle-aged man immediately stood up from the cushion. Coldness flickered through his eyes as he said with a deep voice, "Houston actually dares to offend our Felicity Empire before he reaches the end of his life. Looks like he's probably planning on doing something great while he's still alive. If that's the case, let's strike first and wipe out the Bloodsword sect."
"With the strength of our Felicity Empire, wiping out the Bloodsword sect won't be a problem, but how are we supposed to deal with Houston? At the same time, the Bloodsword sect has a new sect master aside from Houston. He wields an Emperor Armament and is extremely powerful. He'll definitely be able to fight you," Ta Ji said with a heavy voice.
"I'll keep the new sect master busy. As for Houston, I'll leave him to the ancestral emperor. Although the ancestral emperor is slightly weaker than Houston, Zaar Caiyun and Hao Wu of the Holy Emperor's Empire still owe me a favor. I'll go to the Holy Emperor's Empire right now to find them so that they can assist the ancestral emperor. I think the three of them should be more than enough to deal with Houston," the middle-aged man said with a heavy voice. The middle-aged man said in a deep voice. However, as soon as he finished speaking, his eyes narrowed and he suddenly raised his head to look into the distance.
Very soon, Ta Ji and Fang Yan sensed something as well. They both looked into the distance and their faces immediately became ugly. "It's the new sect master of the Bloodsword sect. He's actually come to our Felicity Empire."
A gleam of light flashed through the middle-aged man's eyes when he heard that. He snorted coldly, "Perfect timing. I'd like to see just what you want to do today, new sect master of the Bloodsword sect." With that, the middle-aged man strode outside.
"None of you are allowed to leave!" At this moment, an old voice rang out from the hall. It was filled with an irresistible might.
The middle-aged man came to a sudden halt and suddenly turned around.
On the throne at the highest point of the hall, an old man with a transcendent aura was already sitting there unknowingly.
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and he immediately became respectful. He bowed at the old man with Ta Ji and Fang Yan and said, "Greetings to the ancestral emperor!"
The old man was the ancestral emperor of the Felicity Empire. He was over five thousand years old now, so he was the most senior person in the imperial family.
The ancestral emperor was not the founding emperor of the Felicity Empire. Instead, it was the title of the most senior and strongest emperor in the imperial family. There would always only be a single person.
"Stay here. Don't go anywhere. Don't interfere with what's happening outside," the ancestral emperor said plainly. Emperor Taizu said calmly, but he looked into the distance. His deep gaze seemed to penetrate through the obstructions of the buildings and directly saw Jian Chen and the others flying over.
Jianchen, Ruijin, Honglian, and Black Fish directly flew into the imperial palace of the Felicity Empire. They directly landed on the roof of a building.
"Who are you? Why aren't you going through the main entrance? Don't you know the rules of the Felicity Empire?"
The Baleful Yin Force around the four protectors was extremely difficult to conceal. As soon as Jianchen and the others steadied themselves, a yell rang out from the imperial palace. Several Saint Rulers radiated with powerful presences as they aggressively flew toward where Jianchen and the others stood. They surrounded Jianchen and the others.
At the same time, all the imperial guards of the imperial palace were mobilized. They surged out from all directions like a flood, forming a sea of people very soon. They surrounded the building where Jianchen and the others stood.
One of the Saint Rulers who surrounded Jianchen and the others glanced at the four protectors and asked with a deep voice, "You're from the Bloodsword sect?"
The four protectors of the Bloodsword Sect remained silent. They turned a deaf ear to their words. Jianchen remained emotionless. He coldly glanced past the Saint Rulers and coldly said, "May I ask if the king is present? Come out and accept your death!" Jianchen's voice was very soft, but it reverberated through every corner of the imperial palace.
Immediately, the presences of over twenty Saint Rulers radiated from various parts of the imperial palace. Another twenty Saint Rulers hurried over, quickly approaching Jianchen and the others. They surrounded Jianchen and the others. They were all hostile.
Without a doubt, Jianchen's words indicated that he had come to cause trouble. He was an enemy, not a friend.
"Who are you? How dare you cause trouble in the imperial palace of the Felicity Empire? Do you want to die sooner?"
"Brat, you're the first person who's dared to cause trouble in the imperial palace of the Felicity Empire after so many years. If you know what's good for you, tie yourself up quickly and beg for the emperor's forgiveness. Only then will you be spared."
…
The Saint Rulers who surrounded Jianchen all angrily called out. They knew that Jianchen's group was not to be trifled with, but this was the imperial palace of the Felicity Empire. It was their territory, and there were several Imperial Protector present.
Jianchen's face sank slightly, "I have no intentions of becoming your enemy. I've only come to kill the king. Are you going to hand this person over or not?"
"How dare you look down on the dignity of the Felicity Empire? No matter who you are, your crimes are unforgivable. Let's go and capture all these troublemakers and hand them over to the emperor," a Saint Ruler sternly said. He possessed the strength of a Ninth Heavenly Layer Saint Ruler, so he seemed to possess great prestige among the group of people. With that, the other Saint Rulers all began to move.
"Stop!" At this moment, an old voice rang out from the depths of the imperial palace. They could only hear the voice, but they could not see the person. The voice was filled with an irresistible might.
The Saint Rulers who surrounded Jianchen immediately stopped. They all politely bowed toward the depths of the imperial palace. They did not know who had spoken, but they knew that it was definitely an Imperial Protector.
"Young man, my Felicity Empire has no grievances with you. May I ask why you've come to cause trouble?" The old voice rang out from the depths of the imperial palace. It was the ancestral emperor.
"Your Felicity Empire's king gathered several million mercenaries to steal my city. Tell me, is that not a grievance?" Jianchen growled. He showed no fear at all.
