Chapter 157 - 157: Kill Anyone Who Obstructs Me
Fahui’s abnormalities were too conspicuous.
Even if the people of the Little Thunderclap Temple had joined Dashang, the Dashang Imperial Family would not directly impart their signature divine power to them.
It was impossible for the people of the Little Thunderclap Temple to abandon what they had learned over the years.
However, this Fahui actually did not use their Little Thunderclap Temple’s divine powers and instead used the signature divine power of the Dashang Imperial Family, the Mortal Emperor Fist.
No matter how one looked at it, something was amiss!
“Mortal Emperor Fist…”
On a mountain peak, the Eldest Prince stood tall and proud, his black hair billowing in the wind. His entire body emitted an aura capable of suppressing the world.
Behind him was an old servant.
Further back were hundreds of guards.
Every single one of them was emitting the power of blood and Qi, like blazing furnaces.
As the Eldest Prince of the Dachu Empire, he had extremely discerning eyes.
Almost immediately after seeing Fahui use the Mortal Emperor Fist, he could deduce the entire sequence of events.
If nothing unexpected happened, Fahui’s appearance in Qingzhou should have been intentionally arranged by the Dashang Empire!
This was a trap!
A dead end!
Its main goal was definitely to target some of the Dachu prodigies, including himself!
After all, Fahui’s appearance in Qingzhou caused a commotion in the entire Dachu Empire.
At this moment, there were still people rushing over.
“Your Highness, does Mortal Emperor Fist appearing in Fahui’s hands mean a prince of the Dashang Empire has come?”
The old servant standing behind the Eldest Prince pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.
The Emperor of Dashang was different from the Emperor of Dachu.
In most people’s eyes, the Emperor of Dashang was an undisputed winner in life.
According to common sense, the stronger one was, the fewer children they had.
This was an indisputable fact!
Yet this indisputable fact had been mercilessly shattered by the Emperor of Dashang!
In his thousand-year reign, the number of children he sired had already exceeded two hundred.
That was an average of one child every few years.
The Eldest Prince was already a thousand years old. He was practically an existence of the older generation.
There was no need to elaborate on his strength.
According to rumors, his cultivation was already at the peak of the Nirvana Realm and he was preparing to break through to the Quasi-Saint Realm!
If such an existence made a move, probably everyone present had no chance of survival!
“Not necessarily…”
Hearing this, the Eldest Prince shook his head. A figure appeared in his mind and he chuckled.
“According to what I know, in the Dashang Empire, there is not only one person among the imperial family who knows the Mortal Emperor Fist! In the entire Dashang, there is only one other person who knows the Mortal Emperor Fist!”
When the old servant heard this, his body trembled and his tone became solemn.
“Your Highness, are you talking about… Dashang’s Marquis Champion?”
In fact, what outsiders didn’t know was that there were rumors that Marquis Champion was the illegitimate son of Dashang!
Otherwise, it was hard to understand why he was bestowed the title of Marquis Champion at such a young age.
If it was because of his outstanding contributions, that would be understandable.
The biggest problem was…
After the Dashang Emperor conferred him the title of Marquis Champion, he also imparted him the signature divine power that only the Dashang Imperial Family could cultivate, the Mortal Emperor Fist.
This was unbelievable!
For the imperial family’s divine power to actually be bestowed upon an outsider.
No matter how one looked at it, something seemed amiss.
After all, the character of the Emperor of Dashang…
No one could guarantee it.
With so many children, it was reasonable for him to have left some illegitimate offspring outside.
“Precisely.”
The Eldest Prince nodded gently.
With his hands behind his back, he stood where he was and gazed into the distance. A chilling glint flashed in the depths of his eyes as he softly said, “That person is an extremely audacious fellow… He is a true madman, capable of anything. The matter in Qingzhou should have been caused by him…”
As soon as he finished speaking, in the direction of the Eldest Prince’s gaze, a golden divine light shot over from the distant horizon.
The golden light was extremely dazzling, like the rising sun.
Along the way, the mountains crumbled. Its target was Su Chen in the center of the battlefield!
Such an astonishing sight instantly shocked everyone present.
However, before they could react, the golden divine light had already arrived in front of everyone.
The faces of some slightly weaker individuals instantly paled as they closed their eyes in despair.
Just as many people were prepared to die, the Eldest Prince’s figure flashed as he arrived before the golden divine light.
He grabbed at the empty air.
Bang!
A muffled sound rang out.
In an instant, the golden radiance disintegrated into fine dust.
The Eldest Prince did not care about the Ninth Princess.
If she died, then so be it. It just happened to be one less competitor.
However, nothing could happen to Su Chen!
This was because he had high hopes for the prodigy. Su Chen would definitely be able to help him in the future.
In the past, he had wanted to take Su Chen under his wing.
However, when he saw Su Chen again today, he felt that…
It seemed that being friends was not bad.
By personally taking action now, he was expressing his goodwill to Su Chen.
Of course, there was a hint of retaliation in it as well!
After all, Marquis Champion had schemed against him first.
If Su Chen hadn’t acted today, he would have fallen into the trap of Marquis Champion.
At this moment, he saw that someone wanted to save Fahui.
No matter who it was, he, the Eldest Prince, had to stand up for Su Chen!
“Those who block me… will be killed without mercy!”
His cold voice resounded through the heavens.
In the distant void, a golden light bloomed in the sky like a huge sun, shaking the nine heavens. It transformed into an everlasting rainbow bridge as it swooped down.
It was a golden chariot.
The chariot was surrounded by dazzling light that illuminated heaven and earth.
On the chariot, a tall and sturdy young man wearing a purple-gold crown and a purple-gold robe flew over with a divine spear in his hand.
Before it reached them the divine spear in his hand suddenly stabbed toward the Eldest Prince.
This was an extremely astonishing spear thrust.
It seemed to illuminate the past, present, and future, piercing through the vast earth.
Boom!
The divine spear tore through the heavens, unleashing a terrifying might that spread outwards like a collapsing pillar of heaven.
“So it’s you… Maquis Champion!”
The Eldest Prince smiled when he saw the newcomer.
The blood energy within his body surged and rumbled, filled with explosive power. He punched out with his fist.
Bang!
The divine spear and the divine fist collided in the void.
In just an instant, it stirred up endless aftershocks that spread wildly in all directions.
This sudden change sent many people flying straight away.
Some slightly weaker existences even directly exploded into mists of blood in the sky.
“What happened?”
“What happened?”
“Why is Marquis Champion fighting the Eldest Prince?”
“Just now, Marquis Champion seemed to have wanted to ambush Su Chen from the Great Mystery Sect. However, he was stopped by the Eldest Prince, and the two of them started fighting…”
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
“Marquis Champion wants to save Fahui, but the Eldest Prince seems to want Fahui dead! Things are getting more and more interesting today!”
“From the looks of it, Fahui seems to have long been a member of Dashang. Otherwise, why would Marquis Champion be so angry?”
Everyone retreated a few thousand meters.
They looked at the two battlefields in bewilderment and discussed among themselves..
