"Third Prince, are we just going to let Chen Zong do whatever he wants?" Ding Xuan said angrily.
"Are you telling me what to do?" the Third Prince asked in a neutral tone.
"I wouldn't dare." Ding Xuan's body trembled imperceptibly and his face turned pale. He was afraid of being punished. Although he had benefited a lot from following the Third Prince, the Third Prince's temper wasn't that good. He was temperamental and didn't show his emotions.
Su Xing of the Black Sky didn't say a word, but a cold aura gathered around him, making it difficult for people to approach him.
"Su Xing, how confident are you?" the Third Prince asked.
"One hundred percent." Su Xing's answer was decisive. He calculated based on the strength of Chen Zong and the Underworld Raven.
"Don't worry. The opportunity will come soon." The Third Prince smiled slightly. He had never been interested in playing a game of cat and mouse. When dealing with an enemy, he either didn't move, or he would kill them if he moved.
Now that Chen Zong had joined the Ninth Prince's side, the Ninth Prince's overall strength wasn't inferior to his. He was also the Supervisor of the Dragon Eye Guard.
In terms of strength, the Dragon Teeth Guard was the strongest, followed by the Dragon Claw Guard and the Dragon Eye Guard. But in terms of gathering and monitoring information, the Dragon Eye Guard was the best. The Dragon Teeth Guard and the Dragon Claw Guard were far inferior.
Every movement in the imperial city was under the Dragon Eye Guard's control. Especially now that Chen Zong was on the Ninth Prince's side, and the Ninth Prince was the Supervisor of the Dragon Eye Guard. Naturally, he would pay more attention to Chen Zong's safety.
It would be difficult to touch Chen Zong in the imperial city in secret. As for the surface, they couldn't kill him. At most, they could teach him a lesson, but it wouldn't help.
But it didn't matter. The opportunity would come soon.
In the Suran Residence.
Chen Zong stood quietly with a sword in his hand.
He looked forward and his eyes seemed to wander, spreading around. His mind was wandering, mysterious.
The Xuanjian Sect's Yu Wuya's sword-like gaze, as well as the clearly visible sword slash, clearly replayed in Chen Zong's mind over and over again.
The floating specks of dust in the air were clear. Combining them, a kind of inspiration was about to burst out, but it seemed to be blocked by something. Only by breaking that layer of shackles could he see the truth.
Following the mysterious throbbing, Chen Zong raised his sword and swung it forward. The sword light was casual and natural, like a fish breaking out of the water or a bird flying out of the forest and soaring into the sky.
She was quick-witted, lively, natural, and unrestrained. uu1;
A feeling of breaking through his shackles arose spontaneously, but he still couldn't truly break through it. He was still missing something.
There was a short and rhythmic knocking sound outside the door.
Chen Zong waved his hand and opened the door. Outside the door stood a young man in a white robe with a sword on his back. His long hair hung down, his eyebrows were like swords, and his eyes were sharp.
The young man in a white robe with a sword on his back stepped into the Suran Residence. He didn't say a word, but he was like an unsheathed sword. Wherever his feet passed, straight marks were left on the ground, as if an invisible sword had slashed across.
An astonishing sharpness suddenly shot out from the young man in a white robe, as if a sword had broken through the clouds. It was tyrannical, sharp, and indestructible, causing Chen Zong's expression to change slightly.
Step by step, the sharpness that soared into the sky became increasingly shocking. Immediately, the white-robed young man pulled out his sword with a flip of his hand. A sword that seemed like it was made by nature was thrust out. It carried a slashing power, causing the sword that was thrust out to become even more powerful. Even if there was a large mountain in front of him, it would be penetrated.
This sword made Chen Zong feel an enormous pressure, an extremely terrifying pressure. Before the sword arrived, he already felt as if he had been pierced through. The sword light was extremely fast, and there was no way to dodge it.
Inexplicably, Chen Zong seemed to have entered into a mysterious state. The movement of the dust particles was clearly presented in his perception, and the trajectory and angle of the sword were all within his grasp.
Without dodging, Chen Zong swung his sword.
It seemed slow and light, but it was completely natural and contained a sense of dominance.
It seemed like a coincidence, but it also seemed like the tacit cooperation of the two who had practiced thousands of times. Chen Zong's sword accurately hit the tip of the young man in a white robe's sword. It was like hitting the weak spot of a snake, directly causing the power of the sword to dissipate.
The sword bounced back, and a melodious sound rang out. The body of the sword reflected the sunlight, emitting a dazzling brilliance that rippled out like water.
"Lie Yunxiao." Only then did the young man in a white robe speak. His voice was sharp and metallic.
"Chen Zong." Chen Zong also responded, and his gaze swept across the young man.
Lie Yunxiao was the second core disciple of the Fleeting Sword Sect. His title was Soaring Sword, and he was part of the Ninth Prince's faction. Now, Chen Zong was in the same faction as him.
Lie Yunxiao had joined the Ninth Prince's faction earlier than Chen Zong, but he had returned to the Fleeting Sword Sect for some matters. He had only just returned to the Imperial City when he heard about Chen Zong.
Lie Yunxiao already knew about Chen Zong, and he also knew that he had rejected Ancestor Tian Hong's invitation to take him in as a disciple twice. This made Lie Yunxiao very angry, because Lie Yunxiao really wanted to take Ancestor Tian Hong as his master. Unfortunately, Ancestor Tian Hong had no intention of taking him in as a disciple.
Because of this, the first thing Lie Yunxiao did when he returned to the Imperial City was to find Chen Zong. He wanted to see how Chen Zong was able to make Ancestor Tian Hong personally accept him as a disciple, and how Chen Zong had rejected him twice in a row.
Lie Yunxiao attacked with his sword, but it was blocked by Chen Zong. This was enough to prove that Chen Zong's attainments in swordsmanship were shocking. uu2;
"Both of you are geniuses in swordsmanship. You should interact more." A voice with a smile sounded out as the Ninth Prince walked in from outside, followed by Black Sword Sect's Yu Wu Ya.
Yu Wu Ya was the Ninth Prince's swordsmanship teacher, and also the Ninth Prince's personal bodyguard. Unless it was a special situation, he would follow the Ninth Prince to protect his safety.
With Yu Wu Ya's strength, unless it was a Transcendent Realm master, no one in the Longtu Dynasty could threaten him.
When the Ninth Prince arrived, Lie Yunxiao knew that this test had come to an end. He smoothly sheathed his sword, and the sharp aura around him also disappeared.
"Greetings, Ninth Prince."
Chen Zong and Lie Yunxiao bowed at the same time.
"Both of you may dispense with the formalities." The Ninth Prince smiled, then looked at Lie Yunxiao, "Brother Lie, did you gain anything from your return to the Startling Sword Sect?"
"I gained something from comprehending the Startling Sword Wall." Lie Yunxiao smiled and replied.
"Startling Sword Wall." Chen Zong's eyes flashed with a trace of light.
"The Startling Sword Wall is indeed a rare treasure." The Ninth Prince smiled and said, "I once comprehended it, and it allowed my swordsmanship to improve significantly."
"Brother Chen, I heard that you want to comprehend the Startling Sword Wall." The Ninth Prince asked. With the strength of the Dragon Eye Guard, of course he would know, not to mention that it wasn't a secret.
Chen Zong nodded his head.
"Make your preparations, we'll set off in three days." The Ninth Prince smiled, but this made Chen Zong startled.
If he didn't misunderstand, the Ninth Prince's meaning was for him to make his preparations and head to the Startling Sword Sect in three days. His goal was naturally to comprehend the Startling Sword Wall.
"Many thanks, Ninth Prince." Chen Zong didn't know how to express his gratitude.
"With your talent, I trust that you'll gain a great deal." The Ninth Prince smiled.
Lie Yunxiao stood to the side, not saying anything.
Very quickly, the Ninth Prince, Yu Wuya, and Lie Yunxiao left. Chen Zong took a deep breath, calming his excited heart. However, Chen Zong still had great expectations for the Startling Sword Wall.
The Startling Sword Sect's supreme treasure. He didn't know how much he would gain from comprehending it. uu3;
Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
Chen Zong also left the imperial city, heading to the Startling Sword Sect. However, it wasn't Chen Zong who went alone. The Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya was accompanying him.
"Ninth Prince really thinks highly of this Chen Zong." The Third Prince was a little surprised.
Originally, when he learned that Chen Zong was going to the Startling Sword Sect, he planned to arrange for people to kill Chen Zong on the way to eliminate some trouble. He didn't expect that the Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya would accompany him.
The Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya was known as the number one master under the Transcendent Realm in the imperial city.
It could even be said that the Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya was the number one master under the Transcendent Realm in the Dragon Diagram Region.
Unless they sent a Transcendent Realm master, it would be very difficult to kill Chen Zong under the protection of the Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya. However, as a prince, even though his status was much higher, he couldn't do whatever he wanted. There were still some laws that he had to abide by.
The Transcendent Realm masters were the foundation of the dynasty. They couldn't be used as they wished, especially in the competition between the princes. This was a kind of restriction.
If they wanted to kill Chen Zong, they would have to send a large group of Pseudo Transcendent Realm cultivators. Most of them would have to delay Yu Wuya, then send a Pseudo Transcendent Realm master to kill Chen Zong.
Making a big fuss was too obvious, and the consequences were unpredictable. This was not in line with the Third Prince's style.
However, was there really no other way?
A huge Black Gold Dragon Hawk spread its metallic wings and soared several thousand meters into the sky. Its long and narrow wings were sharp like blades, cutting through the sky, leaving two straight lines.
This was a Black Gold Dragon Hawk, a Class 9 Mid-Rank Monster Beast. It was equivalent to a cultivator in the Fourth to Sixth Layer of the Mortal Realm. Its claws and beak were extremely hard and sharp. Its wings were like blades that could easily cut through many hard objects. It was very terrifying. Its long and narrow body and powerful wings gave it an even faster flying speed.
The Black Gold Dragon Hawk was basically a prince's equipment. Only the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince had Class 9 Mid-Rank Black Gold Dragon Hawks. Riding the Black Gold Dragon Hawk and being escorted by the Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya, it was enough to show how important Chen Zong was to the Ninth Prince.
The Mystic Sword Sect's Yu Wuya was a man of few words. He sat cross-legged on the Black Gold Dragon Hawk's broad back and closed his eyes to rest.
Although Chen Zong really wanted to ask the other party for guidance on sword techniques, but looking at the Xuanjian sect, he could only endure and not disturb him. He himself also sat cross-legged, eliminating all distracting thoughts and comprehending the mysteries of the sword technique.
From the Imperial City to the Pure Grace House, there was no Astral Wind in the sky, so they would not encounter any Red Thunder. Otherwise, the two of them would not be able to withstand it.
The Black Gold Dragon Hawk's flying speed was extremely fast. It did not take long for them to fly out of the Imperial City. The Pure Grace House was adjacent to the Imperial City. Soon, Chen Zong and Yu Wuya entered the Pure Grace House on the Black Gold Dragon Hawk's back. Without slowing down, they flew towards the Pure Grace House.
