Out of Seclusion
Another three days passed in the blink of an eye.
There was no movement within the Heaven Repairing Cauldron.
The Great Mist Empire's capital was still as prosperous as ever.
Other than the loss of the Second Prince's residence, there were no other changes.
However, the Second Prince's mysterious disappearance after being ambushed had become a hot topic among ordinary cultivators.
The First Prince's residence.
"Shangguan Tai, what did the family say about the news that Lord Shangguan Haoran sent back?"
Shangguan Jun looked at Shangguan Tai, clearly eager to know the answer.
Shangguan Tai frowned, "The Prime Minister said that the situation is not good. We lost five half-step Emperors and the family is furious. They seem to have sent people to seize the Great Mist Empire's rule. "
Pa!
Shangguan Jun sneered, "What a family. The Great Mist Empire was built by my great grandfather! Those five half-step Emperors were also my great grandfather's subordinates. What does that have to do with the family?
Now that the Great Mist Empire's strength has declined, it's fine if the family doesn't help, but they want to take over the empire. What is this?! "
After venting his anger, Shangguan Jun and Shangguan Tai quickly headed to the palace.
At the door, Princess Yunyun and Pill Emperor Wanhua faked a greeting to Shangguan Jun weakly. Then, they held their chins and continued to ponder about life.
"When will Young Master Gu Xuan appear?"
"Where is Master Gu Xuan? I still want to take him as my master!"
Days passed quickly.
This was the seventh day since Gu Xuan arrived at the Great Mist Empire.
All the Ancestor level guards in the First Prince's residence were transferred to the palace.
Inside and outside the palace, there was a heavy atmosphere.
Inside a large hall.
"Martial Emperor Shangguan, it's time for you to change your name. The family has decided to hand over the empire to me. I want you to abdicate today and give the throne to me.
A cunning man with a sharp chin stared at Shangguan Emperor with a smug smile on his face.
"Hmph! I advise you to leave as soon as possible, Shangguan Jianzhong! Why does the family want to take back my empire? "Great Emperor Shangguan said angrily.
"Just because you lost five half-step Martial Emperors, how dare you lie to your clan and say that it was Pill Emperor Gu Xuan's clone who did it? You even said that Pill Emperor Gu Xuan has arrived in the empire and is on good terms with you. However, according to my investigation, all of this is just a clumsy lie. "
Shangguan Jianzhong stared at Shangguan Great Emperor with a confident expression.
"Pill Emperor Gu Xuan, what kind of extraordinary figure is that? Even the Shangguan Family can barely be considered as his equal. Why would he come to your Great Lan Empire?"
Emperor Shangguan's face was ashen. "I'm telling the truth! You should know that the Eastern and Southern Regions are different from the Western and Northern Regions. Pill Emperor Gu Xuan does not have the status he deserves in the other two regions where sects are numerous. Instead, he is being ostracized everywhere. "
Shangguan Jianzhong coldly snorted, "You still dare to lie. The power of a Pill Emperor is comparable to that of a top family. As long as those old bastards of the Middle Yuan Region don't act, he can even unify a region. How could such a peerless figure be ostracized? "
Shangguan Great Emperor's forehead was filled with black lines.
Shangguan Jianzhong was only four hundred years old, but he had been in seclusion for three hundred and eighty years. After three hundred and eighty years of seclusion, his brain was already fried. Trying to reason with him was like playing the lute to a cow!
"Scram! Shangguan Jianzhong, take your people and get out of my sight! Otherwise, my hundred thousand shadow guards are not to be trifled with! "
Shangguan Great Emperor was enraged.
This time, there was definitely someone in the family who wanted to mess with him.
Otherwise, anyone with a brain wouldn't send a piece of meat like Shangguan Jianzhong.
If he was allowed to stay in the Great Lan Empire, the entire empire would be crippled in less than a year.
Shangguan Jianzhong was also enraged. He snorted coldly, "A hundred thousand shadow guards? Do you think that bunch of trash can fight with me? I've been in seclusion for three hundred and eighty years, and I've finally entered the Emperor Realm. Do you think I'm afraid of you? "
Shangguan Great Emperor stared coldly at Shangguan Jianzhong, and killing intent flashed across his eyes.
Boom!
Boom! Both of their auras instantly erupted and collided.
An invisible ripple spread in all directions, raising circles of dust.
The entire palace was shrouded in this aura. Everyone felt a heavy weight in their hearts, as if a mountain was about to fall on them.
The entire space seemed to have stagnated, and the air became heavy. Even breathing was somewhat difficult.
Some of the timid palace maids were so frightened that they turned pale and fainted.
Shangguan Jun and the others watched anxiously from the side. They wanted to go forward and help, but they couldn't do anything.
At this moment, a spatial ripple suddenly appeared in the sky above the palace.
A young man in white slowly walked out from the depths of the space. It was Gu Xuan.
His aura seemed to be weaker than Gu Xuan's, and even his temperament seemed to have changed.
However, this change fell into the eyes of Shangguan Great Emperor and the others, who weren't familiar with Gu Xuan, so they couldn't detect it.
Shangguan Jianzhong and Shangguan Great Emperor were at each other's throats, and the atmosphere was tense. At this moment, a spatial ripple appeared in the sky above the palace, and a powerful Martial Emperor appeared, immediately attracting Shangguan Jianzhong's attention.
"A mere Martial Emperor. Not only did he barge into the palace, but he also dared to use spatial martial arts in the palace. How dare he! Shangguan Great Emperor, is he one of your men? Let me teach him a lesson for you! "
Shangguan Jianzhong snorted and drew a circle with his hands. Two Full Moon Slashes, as if they were going to cut through the space, turned into two rays of light, and slashed towards Gu Xuan.
"Stop!" Shangguan Great Emperor shouted in shock.
"No!" Shangguan Jun's face turned pale.
Rumble!
The Full Moon Slashes streaked across the void and arrived in front of Gu Xuan in the blink of an eye.
This attack had locked onto his right arm. If it was any other Half Step to Martial Emperor, their right arm would have been chopped off.
Gu Xuan frowned. Who did he offend? He hadn't even figured out where he was and someone had already thrown the Full Moon Slashes at him, and it was so powerful.
Buzz!
Gu Xuan snorted and took out the Sky Crushing Sword.
A murderous aura that could destroy the heavens and earth was immediately released from the Heaven-Destroying Sword.
The terrifying Sword Qi filled the entire palace.
At this moment, the sky seemed to have darkened. Only the light from the Sky Crushing Sword was extremely dazzling.
Gu Xuan waved the Sky Crushing Sword and slashed out.
A sword ray that had been condensed to the extreme suddenly flew out.
Bang!
The Full Moon Slashes were destroyed.
The Sword Radiance didn't slow down at all. With a ripping sound, it chopped off Shangguan Jianzhong's right arm.
In an instant, blood spurted out.
