It had been a month since Ling Xian killed the two deputies. This shocking news spread like wildfire and swept across the entire Zhou Dynasty.
The first reaction of everyone who heard this news was disbelief.
In the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was someone who dared to kill two nobles so openly. How was this possible?
Ignoring the fact that the two deputies were extremely important, the fact that they were of the completion level was not something normal people could kill. This was a fantasy!
Only when Deputy Zhan and Deputy Chi came out to confirm did everyone accept this reality. When everyone found out that the person who killed the two deputies was named Ling Xian, they fell into an even more intense state of shock.
To the people of the Zhou Dynasty, the name Ling Xian was not unfamiliar. In fact, it was etched in their hearts. Seven years ago, he had stirred up huge waves in the Great Zhou Dynasty with his own strength, leaving an unforgettable impression in everyone's hearts.
However, when Deputy Xiaoyao destroyed the teleportation array with one palm, the people of the Zhou Dynasty thought that he was dead. Yet now, they suddenly heard that Ling Xian had appeared and killed the two deputies. How could the people of the Zhou Dynasty not be shocked?
They were shocked by Ling Xian's decisiveness and shocked by his capabilities!
Within a short seven years, he had grown from a foundational cultivator to a completion leveled cultivator today. Moreover, he was able to suppress four nobles by himself. How unbelievable was this?
Naturally, everyone in the Zhou Dynasty was in awe. They were shocked to a point of no return. After the shock, what replaced it was astonishment.
Astonishment at Ling Xian's cultivation speed.
At once, Ling Xian was in the limelight and was like the Sun in the sky!
No matter where he was in the Zhou Dynasty, he could hear people talking about him. Their words were full of awe and respect. This news had even spread out of the Zhou Dynasty and was spreading to the surrounding forces.
The world was about to change!
Everyone in the Zhou Dynasty realized this and began to speculate.
Ling Xian's arrival this time, would it create an even bigger storm and turn the Zhou Dynasty upside down?
...
The Sun was hanging high in the sky. It was noon.
In a magnificent courtyard, the Third Prince stood under a fiery red tree. His handsome face was contorted, making him look extremely ferocious.
The entire Zhou Dynasty knew of Ling Xian's arrival. He was no exception. After seven years, he thought Ling Xian was dead. The hatred in his heart disappeared as well.
Yet now, not only was Ling Xian alive and well, he was also much stronger than he was seven years ago. To be able to suppress four kings and kill two kings by himself, this naturally caused the Third Prince to feel shocked. At the same time, fury surged in his heart.
"Damn brat, he actually has the guts to come back."
The Third Prince's expression was dark and his eyes were full of anger and killer's intent. However, when he remembered that Ling Xian killed King Xiao Yao, he revealed a sarcastic smile.
"Kid, you're courting death. Of all people to kill, you had to kill my father's old subordinate. Don't you know that Deputy Xiao Yao is one of my father's most trusted people? "
The Third Prince had a look of disdain on his face as he mumbled to himself while staring at the clouds in the sky.
"Brat, prepare to receive father's monstrous fury. I want to see if you can survive this …"
…
Inside a grand hall in the royal palace, the current emperor sat on top of the dragon throne. His eyes were closed and his fingers were softly tapping on the table. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
This person was wearing a dragon robe and had a crown on his head. There was no Qi seeping out of him, yet he exuded a sense of dignity. This made the elderly who was dressed like a eunuch to carefully lower his head and not even dare to breathe.
After a long while, the emperor slowly opened his eyes. Immediately, two rays of gold light howled out and pierced through the void. The entire grand hall began to shake. It was engulfed by the horrifying Qi and was showing signs of collapsing.
Luckily, this grand hall was protected by arrays and the emperor's dignity was fleeting. Or else the entire hall would've crumbled.
"You are saying that the young man named Ling Xian from seven years ago has reappeared and killed Deputy Xiao Yao and Deputy Chang An?" The emperor spoke slowly. His expression was emotionless, making it hard for others to guess what he was thinking.
"Your Majesty, yes."
The eunuch lowered his head and his face was full of respect.
"You sure are gutsy. You dare to kill two deputies of the Zhou Dynasty." The emperor's expression was calm as his fingers drummed rhythmically on the table, "If I remember correctly, seven years ago, Dao Wu Ji came here asking for someone."
"Your Majesty, based on what I know, the young man named Ling Xian is a pupil of the Wan Jian House. Plus, Dao Wu Ji thinks highly of him. He once issued three Supreme Headmaster's Orders for him and shocked the entire Yunzhou. "The eunuch answered respectfully.
"Is that so …"
The Zhou Emperor frowned slightly and said, "I have to give Dao Wu Ji face, but I have to kill this person. How about this, pass on my order and order the younger generation and the completion leveled cultivators to fight against this person. "
"Your Majesty is wise."
The eunuch flattered, "Order the completion leveled cultivators to fight against him. They will be of the same level as that person. This way, even if Ling Xian dies, Dao Wu Ji cannot blame us. "
"That's right. I want Dao Wu Ji to be speechless."
The emperor closed his eyes and ordered, "You may leave. Remember, do not ambush him. You must fight against Ling Xian face to face."
"Your Majesty, I will follow your orders."
The eunuch bowed, lowered his head, and retreated out of the palace.
…..
At the same time, Lin Qing Yi, who was inside the Seventh Princess' palace, also learned of Ling Xian's appearance. Then, she froze.
There were no words of excitement nor was there any expression of joy. Only two streams of tears silently rolled down her face.
They were tears of joy.
Even though she had washed her face with tears every day for the past seven years, at this moment, she couldn't contain her excitement and was crying tears of joy.
"Ling Xian, you are finally back. I knew you wouldn't die." Lin Qing Yi's tears rolled down her cheeks and wet her clothes. She held onto a Qing Hua Dan tightly, her heart was filled with happiness.
"Great, this is great …"
Lin Qing Yi's eyes were filled with tears but she was also smiling like a flower. As she smiled, she cried, and as she smiled.
These two conflicting emotions appeared on her devastatingly beautiful face, but they seemed incomparably harmonious. This was probably the only way to express how excited she was right now.
Just as she was about to lose control of her joy, the Seventh Princess suddenly appeared before the window and teased, "Don't cry, my little beauty. The guard just reported that a young man who calls himself Xian Ling is asking to see you. I think you are excited to see him. "
As soon as she spoke, Lin Qing Yi's eyes exploded with light. In a flash, she dashed into the yard. Then, she turned into a ray of light and dashed towards the door.
Her speed startled the Seventh Princess. She frowned, "Seriously, we've lived under the same roof for seven years and I've never seen you lose your composure like this. That young man named Ling Xian, is he really that charming? "
