The two guards had never expected Jianchen to counterattack. Furthermore, the Sword Qi was extremely fast, not giving them any time to dodge. In the end, their outstretched hands were struck by the Sword Qi, and their palms were immediately pierced by the Sword Qi, causing blood to flow.
The two middle-aged men's expressions changed at the same time. The intense pain from their palms caused them to involuntarily groan. They looked at their palms in shock, their faces filled with disbelief. Neither of them had thought that the fourth young master of Changyang Prefecture would have such ability.
Although they were extremely surprised, the two middle-aged men did not show the slightest fear. After suffering this loss, the two of them did not dare to be as careless as before. Powerful Saint Force surged from their palms, instantly condensing into two weapons. Without any hesitation, they stabbed at Jianchen.
The moment the two guards took out their Saint Weapons, the second prince of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom turned pale with fright and quickly retreated. He was extremely clear on the strength of the two guards, but he had never thought that the fourth young master of Changyang Prefecture would actually be able to force them to take out their Saint Weapons. This caused him to feel extremely shocked.
Jianchen sat on the stone bench as if he had entered a meditative state. His eyes were filled with disdain as he looked at the guards who were attacking him once again. His hand lightly tapped twice, and two more Sword Qi shot out from his fingertips, colliding with the two incoming Saint Weapons.
The Sword Qi dissipated upon contact, but the two middle-aged men's bodies trembled. They only felt an extremely powerful force from the Saint Weapons in their hands, causing their entire right arm to go numb. The right hand that held the Saint Weapons also drooped slightly, and they could not help but take a few steps back. They had already retreated out of the pavilion. ,
The second prince's gaze swept past the shocked guards. His expression was uncertain. He had expected to clash with Jianchen on this trip, but the result was the exact opposite of what he had expected. The two Earth Saint Master guards he had brought were actually unable to do anything to him.
The sound of fighting attracted the attention of Princess Glan who was admiring the flowers not far away. She immediately ran over from afar and looked at the stone table that had been smashed to smithereens. She asked, "What happened? Why did they suddenly start fighting?"
Jianchen stood up from the stone bench and slowly walked to the edge of the pavilion with his hands behind his back. He coldly stared at the second prince and expressionlessly said, "Your highness, you should understand the principle of 'a loose tongue leads to disaster'. I hope you can watch your words. This world still does not belong to your Heavenly Eagle Kingdom."
Hearing this, the second prince's face immediately became gloomy. He said in a deep voice, "A loose tongue leads to disaster. That makes a lot of sense. Changyang Shōten, this prince will remember your words. The future is long, let's wait and see." After saying this, the second prince left with his two guards dejectedly.
Looking at the second prince's departing figure, Jianchen faintly smiled. He really did not place the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom in his eyes.
The Glan Princess looked at Jianchen's tall figure with a complicated expression. She gently walked to Jianchen's side and gently said, "Changyang Shōten, he is a prince of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom after all. Moreover, this is the imperial palace of our Kingdom of Gesun. Don't make things too big, okay?"
"Don't worry, I know my limits. Even if something really does happen, I will bear the consequences." Jianchen's tone was very calm.
"That's not what I meant …" The Glan Princess wanted to explain, but Jianchen interrupted her. "Princess You Yue, let's go back."
The second prince of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom was undoubtedly one of the people who received the most attention in the imperial palace. Not long after Jianchen and the Glan Princess left, the news of the second prince being humiliated in the garden had already spread to the ears of those with status in the imperial palace. His Majesty, who was chatting with Changyang Ba and his wife in the main hall, as well as the two princes, all received the news.
In a splendidly decorated palace, three young men in their twenties were drinking and chatting merrily at a table filled with all sorts of delicacies.
At this moment, a guard ran in from outside and whispered something in the ears of the two young men.
Following this, a trace of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two young men. They waved their hands to signal the guard to leave, and their expressions became somewhat serious.
"Your Highnesses, may I ask what has happened?" The young man sitting opposite the two asked curiously.
"The guard just sent news that the fourth young master of the Changyang Prefecture, Changyang Shōten, has offended the second prince of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom. This is not going to be easy. The Heavenly Eagle Kingdom is not something that our Kingdom of Gesun can afford to offend." One of the princes said with some worry.
"What, Changyang Shōten?" The young man who asked the question was slightly surprised, but soon a trace of joy appeared on his face. He asked, "Could it be that the fourth young master of the Changyang Prefecture, Changyang Shōten, has returned?"
"That's right, Changyang Shōten has also just returned. We also received the news not long ago. Looking at brother Ming Dong's appearance, could it be that you know Changyang Shōten?" One of the princes asked curiously.
Ming Dong nodded slightly, saying, "I didn't think that he would return so quickly, and even come to the palace. Your Highnesses, I still have matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first." After speaking, Ming Dong hurriedly left, leaving the two princes of the Kingdom of Gesun staring at each other, their faces full of shock and disbelief.
"Changyang Shōten actually knows brother Ming Dong?" One of the princes muttered in a low voice, extremely surprised.
The second prince of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom angrily returned to the palace where he was resting with his two guards. As soon as he entered the palace, he slammed his palm heavily on the table, immediately breaking the expensive wooden table in half.
"Changyang Shōten, this prince will make you regret this. This prince will return today's humiliation to you a thousand times over." The second prince's eyes were filled with murderous intent. As a prince of the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom, he had always been respected no matter where he went. He had never been humiliated like today.
At this moment, Minister Che also returned. His complexion was not very good. Looking at the angry second prince, he could not help but feel curious, asking, "Second prince, what happened? Why are you so angry?"
"The people of Changyang Prefecture are too arrogant." Then, the second prince truthfully recounted what had happened in the garden. Minister Che's expression became rather serious after hearing this. He said, "To be able to easily defeat two Earth Saint Masters in his twenties, his talent is truly terrifying. No wonder the king of the Kingdom of Gesun insisted on a marriage alliance with Changyang Prefecture. It was all because of Changyang Shōten."
The second prince turned his head and stared at Minister Che. He said, "Minister Che, did your discussion with the king also fail?"
Minister Che nodded and said, "Yes, the king is determined to betroth Princess Grant to Changyang Shōten. Even if I brought up the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom, I could not sway him at all."
"But the king is right. If I were him, I would have done the same. I never thought that Changyang Shōten would have such strength. With such talent, given a few more days, his future achievements will be limitless. Who knows, he might even bring the Kingdom of Gesun into a golden age."
A strong killing intent flashed through the second prince's eyes. His voice gradually became cold. He said coldly, "This is a threat to the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom. Once the Kingdom of Gesun becomes strong, it will definitely threaten the Heavenly Eagle Kingdom. Changyang Shōten cannot be left alive."
Minister Che nodded and said, "That's right. Since Changyang Shōten has said such disgraceful words, we can use this as a pretext to make a fuss."
"Then I will bring some experts to take down Changyang Shōten." The second prince was about to take action. He could not wait any longer.
"Wait!" Minister Che said, "Your highness, I have two plans to resolve this matter." Minister Che whispered into the second prince's ear.
Jianchen and Princess Glan had already returned to the palace. The king and Changyang Ba were still chatting and laughing.
"My dear nephew, you've come at the right time. You and Yue 'er are not young anymore. Let's choose an auspicious day to get you two married as soon as possible," the king said with a smile. It seemed that he was very eager to get his daughter married.
Changyang Ba and Bi Yuntian were also smiling. They were on the king's side.
Hearing this, Jianchen hesitated slightly and said, "Your highness, I have many things to deal with during this period of time. It is not the time to talk about love. Let's postpone this marriage for now."
The king frowned. He exchanged glances with Changyang Ba and his wife. He seemed to be in a difficult position.
"Father, I also agree to postpone this marriage." Princess Glan suddenly said. Her face was very calm. It was impossible to tell if she was happy, angry, or sad.
Seeing that Jianchen and Princess Glan both agreed to postpone the marriage, the king had no other choice. He sighed and said, "Alright. Since the two of you want to postpone the marriage, then let's postpone it for a while." The king's face was filled with unconcealable disappointment. The status of the fourth young master of Changyang Prefecture was no longer the same as before. The king could only follow his wishes. He did not dare to force him to do anything.
"Xiang'er, why are you doing this?" Bi Yuntian looked at Jianchen with some blame.
"Mother, I really have many things to do. I don't have the energy to talk about love." Jianchen's face was filled with bitterness. In the eyes of others, he was the Imperial Advisor of the Qin Empire and a powerful Heaven Saint Master. However, only he knew how much pressure he was facing.
The matter of the marriage being postponed indefinitely made the king and Changyang Ba and his wife feel a little disappointed. As parents, they naturally hoped that their children could get married sooner. Moreover, the other party was so outstanding.
The crowd quickly dispersed. Jianchen and his parents were arranged to rest in a luxurious palace in the imperial palace. These palaces were specially used to entertain important guests.
