The Wood Dragon had also wiped out those semi-sage experts not long after that old sage expert had died. The Wood Dragon's expression became somewhat strange when he saw that Ye Xiwen was one step faster than him. He remained silent for a long while. Then, he cursed, "Fu * k! You're abnormal!"
The Twenty-third Prince fiercely nodded on one side. [Motherfu * ker! This is indeed abnormal. This old sage expert has been chasing after me for the past few days. But, he had been blown up by his fist. It would be strange if he wasn't abnormal.]
However, he suddenly realized something, and promptly shook his head. How could he dare to say anything in the face of such a ferocious person? The Wood Dragon had dared to joke with him. So, how could he dare to joke with Ye Xiwen?
Ye Xiwen didn't care too much about their attitudes. After all, killing this old man wasn't something worth boasting about. After all, there was a disparity between the strong and the weak within the same level. Those heaven's pride experts would become far stronger than ordinary people once they matured. Similarly, it would've been impossible for him to win so easily if his opponent had been the Wood Dragon. He would've entered the intermediate stage of the sage realm in order to win.
"Many thanks to you two Sirs for saving my life!" The Twenty-third Prince bowed respectfully after he saw that both of them had killed the enemies who had been chasing after him.
"En!" The Wood Dragon coldly responded. He felt that they wouldn't have bothered to rush all the way from the True Martial World to the Meteor World if it weren't for this good-for-nothing prince.
"Are there people in the surroundings?" The Wood Dragon suddenly asked. Ye Xiwen sensed, and found that many divine senses had swept over from the surroundings. Several figures had appeared in the distant void. It was obvious that the battle had alarmed the nearby forces.
"Let's go quickly!" The Twenty-third Prince seemed like a bird startled by the mere twang of a bow as soon as someone was mentioned. He had been exhausted during this period of time. In fact, it should be said that he had been scared. He had been chased to the point where he had no way to escape.
"Why are you leaving? You're not running away now. You're returning to the imperial capital and taking back the throne!" Ye Xiwen insipidly said. He had also learned a little about the current Emperor of the Great Wei Empire on the way here. He had suffered a qigong deviation while practicing martial arts. So, he was now terminally ill. In fact, it could be said that he was hanging on to his last breath. Therefore, the originally peaceful contest for the throne had suddenly entered into the most intense phase. And, this Twenty-third Prince was considered as an ordinary member of the Great Wei Empire. However, he had been hunted down and had almost lost his life.
This matter was related to the withdrawal of the Northern Dipper Alliance. However, the Twenty-third Prince himself had a group of forces. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought of leaving the Northern Dipper Alliance. It could be seen from this that the competition for the throne of the Great Wei Empire had reached a certain extent.
"What's there to be afraid of if they see it?" Ye Xiwen said, "Now, let them see that you have someone supporting you, in order to build momentum!"
The Twenty-third Prince wasn't the most popular prince among the many princes. The most popular princes were the Eldest Prince, the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince, the Seventh Prince, the Ninth Prince, and the others. All of them were ambitious and ruthless characters of their generation.
The Emperor hadn't appointed a Crown Prince for a long time. So, he had sunk into the situation of a group of warlords vying for supremacy. So, this wasn't the time to be low-key. Instead, he had to regroup, work hard, and re-enter the ranks of the contenders for the throne.
Contending for the throne wasn't that simple. In fact, it couldn't be summarized as' when the sandpiper and the clam fight, the fisherman will reap the benefits'. In fact, it was very likely that some people would have already defeated all the opponents, and integrated all the forces. And, the throne would be as stable as Mount Tai at that time. So, what would be the point of contending for the throne then?
The Twenty-third Prince was worthy of being a person who was valued by the Northern Dipper Alliance. He had panicked for a moment. But, he had quickly figured out the crux of the matter. So, he cupped his hands in obeisance and said, "Then, I will have to trouble the two of you!"
His eyes looked towards Ye Xiwen as he said this. He could also see that the Wood Dragon's attitude towards him didn't seem to be very good. However, Ye Xiwen seemed to be easy to talk to on the contrary.
Ye Xiwen looked at the ambitious Twenty-third Prince. However, he seemed to have great ambition but little talent. He wouldn't have rashly separated from the Northern Dipper Alliance if he was truly ambitious and scheming.
Ye Xiwen sighed. He wanted to help this guy ascend the throne. But, he had a long way to go. And, this was also their next task. They wouldn't have rushed over from a faraway place if they had only wanted to save this guy's life.
However, Ye Xiwen and the Wood Dragon had discussed this matter on the road. The best way was to kill. He would kill whoever would compete with him for the throne. And, it would be peaceful after he had killed them all. Anyway, the struggle for the throne had been extremely bloody in the previous generations. And, only one person would be left standing in the end.
Any conspiracy or crafty scheme would be useless in the face of absolute strength. And, any conspiracy or crafty scheme would be destroyed with one slash of the sword. This was the most direct and effective method.
The three of them trod on the rainbow light, and soon disappeared in front of the eyes of the scouts of the various forces.
"This person is the Twenty-third Prince, right?"
Someone recognized the Twenty-third Prince and said. In fact, the news that the Twenty-third Prince had been hunted down had spread throughout the entire Great Wei Empire. However, no one wanted to save him.
That was because the entire Great Wei Empire was in chaos at this time. Many forces were getting restless. So, no one knew what would happen in the next second. Moreover, no one wanted to save a prince who had lost his power. In fact, it seemed as if he was about to die.
"But, where did he find these two experts? They are too dreadful. I know that old man. He is an unfathomable expert of the Fourth Prince's side. It is said that the Third Prince had asked him to come out of seclusion. He had paid an innumerable price. However, these two people had defeated him as easily as crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood!"
"Yes, look at the clothes of these two people. They might belong to a certain force. Or, they might belong to a certain organization. It seems that the Twenty-third Prince has received strong reinforcements. So, he is about to turn over a new leaf!"
"It's hard to say. The Imperial Capital is in chaos at this time. And, the descendants of those princes are getting restless. They are full of ambition. So, who knows who will be the true Emperor until the end!"
"The true Emperor … hehe … Who still believes in fate these days? They are just trying to deceive those ignorant people. Whoever has the strongest strength will be the true Emperor!"
All three of them were experts. So, their speed was extremely fast. They had already returned to the Imperial Capital of the Great Wei Empire in half-a-day's time.
"Who is it?" The three of them had just arrived in the sky above the Imperial Capital when a commander of legendry's great complete realm flew over and shouted.
The strength of the Great Wei Empire was much stronger than the few big empires of the Southern region. Sage realm powerhouses were very rare in the big empires of the Southern region. A semi-sage expert was considered to be the top fighting force. However, the Twenty-third Prince was also a semi-sage expert. So, one could well imagine the disparity between him and the Great Wei Empire.
"Dog slave, don't tell me that you don't even recognize me?" The Twenty-third Prince reprimanded in a loud voice. He was like a tiger that had fallen to the plains. So, he naturally cared about his reputation the most.
"Twenty-third Prince?" The commander was stunned when he saw the Twenty-third Prince. He hadn't expected that he would be able to see the Twenty-third Prince return. Everyone had thought that the Twenty-third Prince's forces had been wiped out by the Fourth Prince. So, they had thought that the Twenty-third Prince wouldn't be able to escape this calamity. So, they hadn't expected that they would see him again.
"I wouldn't dare!" That commander was slightly startled. But then, he became arrogant again. "But, everyone knows that Your Highness has been missing for a very long time. So, you've suddenly come back. So, you must verify your identity!"
The Twenty-third Prince's complexion turned ugly. [Are you trying to hit me?] [The entire world will be in chaos if everyone has to verify their identity after going out for a period of time. This is clearly making things difficult for me.]
[It seems that someone doesn't want me to come back!]
"You're very courageous!" The Twenty-third Prince's complexion turned gloomy. "You even dare to stop me. It seems that you don't want to live anymore!"
"Bang!"
The Twenty-third Prince suddenly stretched out his big hand as he said this. And, this arrogant commander was grabbed to death by the Twenty-third Prince. He transformed into a mass of blood fog.
The Twenty-third Prince couldn't deal with a sage expert. However, it was more than enough for him to deal with an expert of legendry's great complete realm.
This was also what Ye Xiwen had told him before. Either he didn't go back, or he had to show enough of a high profile if he went back. He would die the fastest if he pretended to be low-key at this time. After all, those people would try their best to get rid of those people who weren't qualified to compete for the treasures. So, they wouldn't let the sandpiper and clam fight with each other, and then the fisherman would reap the benefits.
He had to be high-profile at this time. And, he had to show enough strength!
The three of them entered the city after they had killed that commander. The remaining soldiers didn't dare to stop these three fiendish looking guys from entering the city. Moreover, one of them was the Twenty-third Prince. The Emperor had more than a hundred princes. And, there were countless grandsons. However, a prince was still a prince no matter how many there were. So, it wasn't their turn to bully them. That commander who had tried to put on airs had been caught and killed.
In any case, the higher-ups would take care of everything. So, why would these soldiers at the city gate go looking for trouble and throw away their lives?
The news of the Twenty-third Prince's return had spread throughout the entire Imperial Capital almost immediately. Almost all the well-informed forces had come to know that the Twenty-third Prince had returned.
Moreover, some of the more well-informed forces had discovered that two powerful experts had helped the Twenty-third Prince to kill a sage expert who had been sent by the Fourth Prince to hunt him down.
Therefore, a rumor had started to spread about the Twenty-third Prince's comeback.
Many rumors had spread out. Some said that the Twenty-third Prince had obtained the support of a certain force. And, that force had sent experts to support him. These rumors were very convincing.
Many other rumors had spread out in a short time.
