The Sun had just risen, shedding down faint gold light that engulfed this millennium capital.
It was the most prosperous capital of the Zhou Dynasty after all. Early in the morning, the streets were filled with people and carriages. It was very lively.
Nobody knew that an assassination that would shock the entire Zhou Dynasty was about to happen. Nobody noticed that a silhouette in a black robe was strolling on the street. As if he was taking a stroll in his own garden, he was relaxed.
It was Ling Xian.
Ever since he achieved some success with the Disorder Conquering Fists and Feng Qing Ming gave him the Minor Shift Array, he left the Painting of the Nine Immortals. On the second day, which was also at this time, he walked into the Imperial Capital.
Because the assassination hasn't begun yet, he wasn't nervous. He planned on walking around for a bit before taking the Third Prince's head.
"In the blink of an eye, seven years have passed."
Ling Xian casually walked down the street. Remembering how he became the Third Prince's enemy, he couldn't help but exclaim, "Back then, when I killed the Third Prince's clone, the seed of hatred was planted. I cannot believe it lasted until today."
"But this person sure deserves to die."
Remembering the assassination attempt at the Seventh Princess' palace, coldness swirled in Ling Xian's eyes. He muttered to himself, "Oh well, let me end this seven year long hatred as soon as possible."
Then, he quickened his steps and headed towards the outskirts of the Emperor's Capital.
He had already found out that the Third Prince didn't live in the palace nor did he live in the center of the Emperor's Capital. Instead, he chose to live in the outskirts.
This, however, was very beneficial to Ling Xian. After all, the battle against the Third Prince will create quite a commotion. In other words, it will attract the attention of many powerhouses.
If he stayed in the center of the city, then even if he could kill the Third Prince, it would be difficult for him to escape from so many powerhouses. If he stayed in the outskirts, then it would be much better. At the very least, the powerhouses inside the Emperor's Capital won't arrive so quickly.
Of course, this was only a small factor.
What was truly important was that Ling Xian had to defeat the Third Prince in a short period of time!
One has to admit that this was a very difficult task.
One should know that apart from his noble status, the Third Prince was also extremely powerful. In his early years, he was known as the strongest of his generation and had never tasted defeat since his debut!
Therefore, killing him in a short period of time was, without a doubt, an extremely difficult task. After killing him, the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty will be enraged. When that happens, that will be the real challenge!
"I have to kill the Third Prince in a very short period of time. Then, before the Emperor can react, I have to escape the Great Zhou Dynasty."
Silently making up his mind, Ling Xian quickened his steps and headed towards the outskirts of the city.
After about an hour, he finally arrived at the outskirts of the city, and a magnificent mansion appeared in his sight.
"Although it is remote, it is very luxurious."
Staring at the luxurious palace, Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. The coldness in his eyes was getting colder and colder. He muttered to himself, "Third Prince, this day has finally arrived. Seven years of hatred, let us end it today."
As he spoke, he manipulated the Golden Dan in his body and formed the Disorder Conquering Fist. Suddenly, an infinite amount of divine light bloomed. It was as dazzling as the undying blazing sun. It was blinding and dazzling!
Then, Ling Xian slowly rose into midair and threw a punch at the mansion below!
Immediately, an undefeatable amount of Qi poured out of him. It carried with it the power to split open the sky and shake up everything in the area!
…..
Half an hour ago, inside the study room of this mansion.
The Third Prince sat on the golden chair and listened to his subordinates' reports. His handsome face was getting darker and darker and colder.
After the failed assassination attempt, he had sent out all his subordinates to track down Ling Xian in an attempt to kill him.
Sadly, no matter how many troops the Third Prince sent out, he could not find a trace of Ling Xian. This naturally infuriated him.
These past few days, he had been feeling strangely irritated. Now that he heard that his subordinates failed to complete the mission, he was naturally infuriated.
"You are saying, after 10 days, you still can't find that bastard Ling Xian?"
The Third Prince's expression was cold as he stared at the man in black, "Trash. A Shadow Guard can't even find an outsider."
The man in black trembled and immediately kneeled on the ground, "Third Prince, please calm down. I … I really can't find him."
"Hmmph, this fella sure knows how to hide."
The Third Prince hissed, his handsome face was full of killer's intent, "The assassination attempt at the Seventh Princess' palace didn't take your life. You are lucky. I do not believe that you can escape once, but you can escape again! "
Then, he shifted his gaze towards the man in black, "Are you sure that Ling Xian is no longer in my sister's palace?"
"Your Highness, I am very sure." The man in black nodded.
"That's true. Now that all the cultivators in the Zhou Dynasty are looking for Ling Xian, even if my sister is gutsy, she wouldn't dare to hide him anymore."
The Third Prince revealed a sarcastic smile, "I am looking forward to seeing how Ling Xian looks right now. I bet he is as exhausted as a stray dog."
"Your Highness is wise."
The man in black continued to flatter and analyzed, "Ling Xian has offended the emperor. All the completion levelled cultivators in the Zhou Dynasty will be searching for him."
"That's right. That's why I don't think about it anymore. It's hard for him to escape death."
The Third Prince coldly snickered as coldness swirled in his eyes. He mumbled to himself, "Ling Xian, I admit that you have some capabilities and you are a hero. But under these circumstances, no matter how capable you are, you will not survive! "
Just as he was certain that Ling Xian was dead, he suddenly felt the entire palace shake. He couldn't help but frown.
"Someone is attacking the array?"
The Third Prince frowned as a hint of disbelief flashed across his eyes. He was the third son of the emperor. Whether it was his identity or his capabilities, they were all terrifying. In the entire Zhou Dynasty, who would have the guts to attack his palace?
Could it be … they are tired of living?
"Dammit, they are seeking death!"
After recollecting himself from his shock, the Third Prince's expression turned dark. However, just as he was about to go out and check, an earth-shattering rumble echoed and the entire palace's array was destroyed!
"Dammit, who is it?"
The Third Prince was furious. He didn't think that in the Zhou Dynasty, someone would dare to destroy his palace. This was the same as declaring war.
In the entire Zhou Dynasty, who dared to declare war against him?
Other than Ling Xian, who had the guts?
"Ling Xian!"
The Third Prince gritted his teeth as his black hair tussled in the wind. Terrifying Qi exploded and he shouted, "I want you dead!"
As soon as his voice trailed off, a powerful wave of Qi descended from the nine heavens. It suppressed all nine levels of Heaven and shocked all three thousand miles!
At the same time, a silhouette in black floated down. The moment he landed, a statement full of arrogance and determination left his lips.
"Third Prince, accept your death!"
