"Then let me remind you, Grand Tutor. Don't make this the last Millennium Celebration," Mu Yunshu said coldly.
Since the alchemist had already said so, there was no need for him to be polite.
"Just as well. You have to give us an explanation for attacking the branch of the Sky One Sword Sect in the Nakagawa Continent," Mu Chen said.
At this moment, the various factions that had been restraining themselves were about to shed all pretense of cordiality. Seeing that the situation was not right, the surrounding factions began to back away.
These were all first-class factions. They could not afford to offend them. If they were implicated, they would not even have a place to cry if they were destroyed.
Prince Jin swept a glance at these forces, especially the forces behind him. His expression immediately darkened.
Before the Sky One Sword Sect and the other factions arrived, these people had all said that they would stand on the side of the royal family. However, now that the situation was not right, not a single one of them spoke up for the royal family. Instead, they all backed away. If this had happened in the past, he would have already attacked.
But now, he could not do anything.
The royal family needed to win people over. If he really killed these fence-sitters, no one would dare to stand on the royal family's side.
The reason why there were so many fence-sitters in the current situation was because the royal family's dignity had been challenged. They could no longer do whatever they wanted in the Nakagawa Continent.
"Hmph! It seems that not many people support you. Although this is the Nakagawa Continent, it does not belong to the Nakagawa Empire alone, "Mu Li said with a cold smile.
"Who said that no one supports the royal family? Aren't we?"
At this moment, a few factions did not back down. After Mu Li's words, they immediately expressed their support for the royal family.
"Yes, we also support the royal family. The reason why the Nakagawa Continent is called the Nakagawa Continent is because of the existence of the Nakagawa Empire. Otherwise, would it take your surname? The Yuan Continent? What a joke! "Someone sneered.
"I have to say that you are very courageous. I have high hopes for you."
Not far away, Lin An raised his brows as he gazed at those sects and forces and spoke softly.
"If there is a chance in the future, I would like to visit your sects," Lin An continued.
"I am also very interested," Mu Li agreed.
As soon as he said that, the expressions of those sects immediately changed.
Pay a visit to their sect? Was he really going to sit down? I'm afraid not!
Those organizations that were destroyed by the Akatsuki in the Yellow Spring Calamity were all uprooted in a very short period of time. They couldn't even wait for the royal family's rescue.
At the thought of this, the faces of the few people who were shouting fiercely just now suddenly turned very pale. They didn't dare to speak anymore and even began to retreat, intentionally or unintentionally.
"What are you afraid of? With our royal family around, how can we allow others to do as they please? "Prince Duan Zhong said angrily after catching his breath.
However, it would have been better if he hadn't said anything. The moment he opened his mouth, those people were so scared that they retreated dozens of steps.
As an existence ranked fourth among the Nine Grand Dukes of the Nakagawa Empire, he had just been sent flying by a single punch from Mu Li. Furthermore, he was even injured. No one believed in him.
"It seems that something is really going to happen at the millennium celebration this time. I'm looking forward to it more and more," the alchemist said softly as he watched the scene unfold in front of him.
Obviously, under his coercion, the Sky Yi Sword Sect, the Sky Origin Sect, and even the Lin family were somewhat fearless. This also meant that these three sects must have some backing behind them.
As for whether this backing was the Akatsuki or not, the alchemist was still unsure. However, he had already tested out what he wanted.
That was, at the millennium celebration, the conflict between the royal family and the various first-class cultivation forces would erupt. It was even very likely that there would be a great war that would overturn the entire continent.
"He's testing us," Lin An said to Mu Li via voice transmission.
"I can see that, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, Hayashikawa has already decided to settle all his grudges at the millennium celebration. Let's test them then. When the time comes, if they have prepared all the trump cards of the royal family, it will save us the trouble of looking for them one by one," Mu Li said.
"Don't you think that the royal family also seems to be fearless? At least this alchemist is acting as if he has a card up his sleeve, "Lin An continued.
"This person is indeed not simple. However, compared to the royal family's trump cards, I still trust Hayashikawa's trump cards more," Mu Li said softly.
Lin An shook his head helplessly. Mu Li's trust in Hayashikawa seemed to be almost blind. This was not a good thing.
However, on second thought, Lin An also felt that this blind confidence was not without reason. With so many powerful trump cards in his hands, there was indeed nothing for him to be afraid of.
Suddenly, a blue light appeared in the sky. Endless Spiritual Qi erupted from the sky. In an instant, the entire imperial capital was bathed in pure Spiritual Qi.
"This is … the Spirit-dispersing Formation?"
Everyone's expression changed as they looked up at the sky.
There was an array formation that was emitting a dazzling radiance, and an endless amount of pure spiritual energy was being released from that array formation.
Unlike the Spirit-gathering Formation, the Spirit-dispersing Formation was a formation set up to disperse the Spiritual Qi from spirit stones. In order to unleash its effects, a huge amount of spirit stones had to be used.
And in order to cleanse the entire imperial capital with pure Spiritual Qi in an instant, it was almost impossible to do without hundreds of millions of spirit stones.
Once they understood this, everyone immediately knew who had come.
The Bu family of the Immortal Toppling Sect!
Because in the entire mainland, only the Bu family, who was as rich as a country, had the financial resources to support this Spirit-dispersing Formation.
"The Bu family is really willing to spend money for their reputation!" Mu Chen said, the corners of his mouth twitching.
That was hundreds of millions of spirit stones, and they were directly used up on the Spirit-dispersing Formation. The problem was that this formation had no practical value. If one had to pinpoint its use, it would be to increase the Bu family's reputation. Even if they were not a first-class cultivation force, as long as they were willing to spend money, they could still become a first-class cultivation force.
The only thing that could be seen was that they were rich!
"Sister-in-law's family is really capricious," Lin An could not help but complain.
"They don't lack money." Mu Li pursed her lips.
Under the support of the Spirit-dispersing Formation that burned hundreds of millions of spirit stones in just a few breaths, nearly a hundred figures walked out from the blue light. Under the support of the endless pure Spiritual Qi, they descended towards the crowd.
Needless to say, the effect of burning money was quite good. At least from the perspective of ordinary cultivators, the Bu family did not belong to any first-class cultivation force.
