Within the tower.
Ye Zichen's arrogant laughter rang out from within the water screen, but when Ye Rong heard it, her heart skipped a beat.
Gu Xuande didn't show any of his emotions on his face. He simply waved his hand and dispersed the water screen.
"Clan Uncle …."
Ye Rong was rather worried for him. The Divine Dragon was a precious item, but he'd taken it away. That wasn't too bad, she could just have Ye Zichen return it.
The most important thing was the city sign!
The sign was the pride of the Gu clan, yet Ye Zichen had destroyed it. This infuriated the experts of the Gu clan even more.
"Ye Zichen, this child, is too impudent!"
Ye Rong cursed in a testing manner. Hearing that, Qingli patted Ye Rong's hand.
"You can't blame him. Xuande already said that it's his ability to destroy the sign, and it's also his ability to take the Divine Dragon away. Since he did it with his own ability, why blame him? Lil 'Rong, you really gave birth to a child, unlike that girl of mine. She's still like a child. "
"Aunty …."
"Alright, don't worry. Xuande isn't a petty person. He's the head of the Gu clan, he's a man of his word. He definitely won't blame Ye Zichen, and will even reward him, "Qingli smiled, then looked towards Gu Xuande." Right, Xuande? "
"Yes! Reward, and reward him handsomely! "
Gu Xuande nodded benevolently. Qingli had already burst into laughter.
She'd known Gu Xuande for so long, but she'd never seen him suffer so much. The city sign was destroyed, and the Divine Dragon's Soul that he'd obtained with great difficulty was stolen.
She knew the origins of the Divine Dragon's Soul.
Gu Xuande had indeed obtained it in the Ancient Battlefield, but it wasn't as easy as he'd said. In order to condense such a soul, Gu Xuande stayed in the ancient battlefield for a hundred years. He condensed the remnant souls bit by bit, and only then did such a holy dragon's soul appear.
He'd treated the Divine Dragon's Soul like a treasure, and had only recently placed it on the city sign.
He'd wanted to use the Divine Dragon's Soul to scare Ye Zichen because he knew he was proficient in the Dao of the Five Elements. Who would've thought ….
"See, since Xuande said so, don't worry!"
Instead of comforting Gu Xuande, Qingli looked at Ye Rong with a smile.
Ye Rong couldn't help but be confused by the scene in front of her. She felt that the problem wasn't that simple. However, these two were Half-Step Transcendence Realm experts and were her seniors. She didn't think too much about it. All he could do was nod repeatedly, praise Gu Xuande's kindness, and thank him on Ye Zichen's behalf.
"Heh …"
There was no response from Gu Xuande. Ye Zichen really wanted to hear Gu Xuande's exasperated curses. Being able to infuriate a half-step transcendent level cultivator was pretty cool.
Unfortunately, Gu Xuande did not respond.
Ye Zichen could only twitch his mouth in disappointment, then land beside Blueprint.
"Blueprint Guard, please lead the way."
Ye Zichen didn't forget his purpose in coming here. The Gu clan head wanted to see him. Breaking the city plaque and seizing the Holy Soul was just a small interlude in entering the city.
Now that the city plaque no longer exerted any pressure on him, he naturally wanted to enter the city to see the Half-step Transcending Realm expert who had suffered a great loss.
However, as soon as he landed, Ye Zichen felt countless powerful auras lock onto him. Ye Zichen's heart skipped a beat. Even the weakest of these auras were emperors, and there were quite a few Monarchs among them.
This Gu clan …
With three half-step Transcendence Realm experts, Ye Zichen couldn't underestimate them.
However, everyone from his clansmen to his attendants were all Emperor level experts. This was way too terrifying!
Ye Zichen looked around and saw that practically everyone at the city gates was staring at him. It seemed they were all furious that Ye Zichen had broken their city plaque.
Ye Zichen, who'd just been joking with the Gu clan head, gulped despite himself.
Gu Xuande was his senior. Ye Zichen trusted that he wouldn't bicker with a junior like him. However, the Gu clan experts before him might not be as magnanimous as Gu Xuande.
There were so many emperors and Monarchs. If they really attacked …
Ye Zichen wouldn't be able to survive even if he had ten lives!
"Brat, you dared to break Gu Xuande's city plaque …."
Suddenly, a burly man appeared at the city gates. He clenched his fists and charged at Ye Zichen.
Ye Zichen instinctively activated the power of the five elements, but Blueprint acted first. With a wave of his hand, he slapped the Imperial Emperor back.
"Alliance Head Ye is the clan head's honored guest. How dare you!"
"Lord Blueprint!"
The burly man who was pushed back clutched his chest and roared with unwillingness in his heart, "He broke our city gate's signboard and said those words, disrespecting our clan leader!"
"The clan head didn't hold it against you. You don't need to win face for the Gu clan."
Blueprint narrowed his eyes and looked around angrily.
"Just now, I took pity on you all for protecting the clan. If anyone dares to disrespect Alliance Head Ye in the slightest, don't blame me for being merciless."
It was obvious that Blueprint held great prestige within the Gu clan. Or perhaps it was more accurate to say that his cultivation was enough to crush everyone at the city gates.
As soon as he said that, the people who'd previously held a grudge against Ye Zichen couldn't help but lower their heads.
However, there were still quite a few among them who didn't avert their gazes and snorted angrily. "Lord Blueprint, breaking the Gu clan's city gates is a slap in the face. No one has ever dared provoke us like this in tens of thousands of years. Since he's the clan head's honored guest, he should treat the Gu clan with even more respect. He shouldn't have broken our city plaque and insulted the clan head. I didn't receive the clan head's transmission.
I don't know if Lord Blueprint's words are true or not, but here …. This person who broke our city gate plaque must pay for his mistake with his blood. "
"Hah, are you saying you want to try me?"
Suddenly, Blueprint's body glowed with a deep blue light.
Countless cyclones rose from beneath his feet, and a heavy, mountainous pressure enveloped everyone's hearts. Quite a few emperors retreated ten thousand meters. They didn't dare stay under the emperor's pressure for long.
"That's exactly what I was thinking."
The person who'd spoken earlier snorted and stepped forward.
"Perfect timing. I want to see if Lord Blueprint really has the right to be the clan head's personal guard."
"Lord Bai Shou, he's here too!"
When they saw who'd stepped forward, the crowd grew restless.
"Last time, Lord Bai Shou lost to Lord Blueprint in a martial arts duel. He never became the clan head's personal guard. It seems he's always been dissatisfied, so he's purposefully causing trouble for Lord Blueprint."
"Lord Bai Shou's been in the Ancient Battlefield all these years. I wonder if Lord Blueprint is his match."
"Hmph, I support Lord Bai Shou. That brat really went too far. He should be taught a lesson."
Ye Zichen couldn't help but be stunned when he saw Blueprint and Bai Shou clashing head-on.
