"So, was that really fine?" Fei Jin Fang said as he walked along the hallway in the Imperial Royal Palace. It seemed as though he was talking to an empty air beside him.

Weng!!

A ripple suddenly appeared which contorted the s.p.a.ce beside him. With it, came out a familiar figure.

It was Liu Sheng Juan.

By using some sort of a mystical artifact, he was able to hide his presence from other people's senses.

"The small prince is but predictable. This much should be fine, and even if we go a little bit further, the Liu Empire would still turn a blind eye to us." he replied calmly as his eyes reflected a deep, calculative mind.

The prince, Liu Shuiyui, although was renown to have a big mouth, was not as idiot as he appeared. He would not dare to have said such things in the first place if there was no one backing him up.

After all, no matter how braindead someone was, insulting the Emperor of another Empire in a foreign territory would certainly grant them death by hanging.

Even if the latter's status was a prince, there was no exception to this.

However, doing so would create an unstable rift between their Empire. While the big clans, n.o.bles and aristocrats in the Jiu Empire was thoroughly suppressed by the Emperor, Jiu Xian Ping, the same could not be said about their neighbour, the Liu Empire.

In the Liu Empire, there were four major factions eyeing for opportunity to wrestle influence and authority;

The Royal faction, the most powerful in terms of authority. The Trinity Faction, consisting of n.o.bles, aristocrats, and hired bureaucrats which has a deep influence in the society. The East Merchants Faction, controlling the vast majority of the economic flow in the Liu Empire, and finally, the Seven Deadly Clans, whom acted as the backbone of their military might!

If their prince, was somehow executed in foreign territory, these 4 factions would definitely make a move against one another!

Liu Sheng Juan, with his vast insights, had already predicted that something was amiss the moment this infamous prince of mischief, Liu Shuiyui requested for an audience.

Therefore, he chose to stick with Fei Jin Fang despite their day and night personality.

Usually, when the two of them met, they would argue ceaselessly all day, causing even the Emperor to sigh out helplessly every time, as if casted out like an outsider.

However, when it came down to doing business, the two of them seemed to become brother-in-arms as if bounded by blood! They would trust each other without restraint.

If Fei Jin Fang was the brawns, then Liu Sheng Juan was the brain!

Right now, Liu Sheng Juan's calculative mind had already plotted out a clear conjecture of what was going on.

"Most probably, Liu Shuiyui was sent here to try to get some information about who is the Imperial Overseer. By creating a ruckus and looking down on our Emperor for making such a decision, one would definitely feel the need to defend the Emperor's honor." he said.

Fei Jin Fang thought for a while before nodding in agreement, "Indeed, had you not warned me in advance, I would have told them that the Emperor made such decision was not due to simple means, but that the very fate of the people of the Jiu Empire hangs on it!"

"That's right, and while that information might seemed like insignificant to others, in front of my brother.. he would definitely be able to trace the meaning until the end!" Liu Sheng Juan said with a serious look on his face.

"Oh yeah, the envoy that came from the Liu Empire was lead by your older brother, Liu Sheng Duhai isn't it? That is one troublesome figure we have here.." Fei Jin Fang wore the same expression as well.

This must mean that Liu Shuiyui's action was most probably instructed by the other party!

But to what extent was the purpose? The both of them weren't really sure either.

The calculative talent of Liu Sheng Juan's older brother, Liu Sheng Duhai, was something that was too extraordinary that even their Emperor would never underestimate!

Furthermore, the reason why Liu Sheng Duhai was sent to lead the envoy was because he did not support any of the 4 factions at all despite possessing the t.i.tle of advisor for the Liu Empire. He always remained neutral, thinking of what's best for the Empire first and foremost.

Thus, the four factions of the Liu Empire does not need to worry as whatever happens here would not benefit any of them politically.

Thinking of his older brother, a cold glimmer could be traced hidden deep inside Liu Sheng Juan's eyes.

...

Puhe!

Two figure rose up from the zule river that surrounded the Imperial palace and crawled onto the river bank while gasping for air.

Bam!

"That d.a.m.ned Fei Jin Fang! To think that he dared to really throw me out from the window!" Liu Shuiyui spatted out as he punched the ground.

Still, this much humiliation is acceptable as I did just straightly mocked out their Emperor..

Though..

That d.a.m.ned Liu Sheng Duhai, the h.e.l.l is he planning making me said all those?

For a second, I really thought that my soul was leaving my body the moment Fei Jin Fang attacked! Thankfully, he only strucked the clone beside me..

If there was no one there, with no one to vent his frustrations on, I might have been the one to die..

Suddenly, a s.h.i.+ver ran down his spine as he thought of something.

"It can't be.. did that b.a.s.t.a.r.d predicted this too and prepared the clone beforehand?"

Gulp!

Nah.. he isn't that omniscient..

"The effects from the Qi sealing pills should wear off soon my prince.." the attendant beside him reminded.

According to safety protocols, any foreign cultivator regardless of t.i.tles, except for a very special circ.u.mstances, before entering the Imperial Palace, were required to swallow the Qi sealing pills that acted to disrupt the Qi flow within one's meridians and Qi pathways, temporarily rendering them unable to make use of their spiritual Qi at all.

This was also the reason why they can't escape their fate from being thrown out of the window so disgracefully before.

After all, both the prince and his attendant were in the Core Formation realm!

"Hmph! Well I did as I was told already, so its time to have some fun! Follow me!" the prince waved his hand grandly as his attendant followed closely from behind.

...

"And that's how my adventure went inside the second region!" Duan Li said energetically as he retold his wondrous adventure.

"..." his followers.

Burning a whole small island to extract spiritual Qi? Okay.

Evolving a monster to become a humanoid cultivator, and then rallying a whole tribe to wage war against one another? That's possible.

Developing a new fist art that could devastate an entire Empire? A little too far-fetched but alright.

Fighting an endless number of puppets, exterminating ancient killerworm species and taming away the Queen, scaling a peak-less mountain and finally fighting a replica of his with the same ability..

Is this Lord of theirs for real?

As expected of their Lord, it was such a preposterous adventure that was on par with the myth and legends they used to hear back when they were still children. In fact, this was probably the most outlandish story that even 3 years old child that hadn't properly developed their cognitive thinking properly yet would have some serious doubts regarding its authenticity.

Thankfully, their Lord here was smart. Along the way of telling his story, Duan Li summoned all of his pets from his spatial ring as witnesses that had continuously nodded their head on each breakthrough in the story. At first, they were still largely skeptical as this whole fiasco could be orchestrated and planned beforehand, but the moment their Lord brought out Bulu, and then Queen Levy, all their doubts vanished on the spot.

This was especially the case when Queen Levy came out. Due to her dark nature, the aura she gave out sent numerous alarm signals in their body to explode as they simultaneously stepped back large distances. While her human appearance was beyond the natural beauty of anyone they had ever seen before, the stench of death oozing out from her body immediately destroyed that facade!

They instantly knew that this Queen Levy was an evil ent.i.ty!

Had their Lord not immediately kicked her from the back which sent her cras.h.i.+ng onto the nearby pond, and then reprimanding her to suppress her murderous aura, they would never, in their wildest dream could have imagined that such a reality was possible.

They were not fools and talented in their own fields, and they could sense that this Queen Levy was beyond strong. Perhaps on the level of Nascent Soul realm or even further!

For their Lord to be able to suppress such an ent.i.ty.. just how monstrously strong was their Lord actually?!

Gulp!

At this moment, they realized that despite the casual looks of their Lord, one would have already made a terrible mistake if they think of him as the same as his appearance. If one day their Lord were to rage out, who could possibly stop him?

Duan Li's image suddenly grew taller in their mind as a new sense of respect and veneration were nurtured inside them.

"You said that you fought a copy of yours in that final trial.. was this also the reason why you seemed to be injured somehow?" Shen Lu, the brightest of them all said this as he noticed some peculiarities with Duan Li.

"Eh? Now that you mentioned it, when I was countered, it felt like there was something wrong with his movements.." Shen Murong cupped his chin as he pondered.

Hearing this question, Duan Li could only smile wryly.

"Actually, I am severely injured after I fought with my clone. All of my Meridians and Qi pathways were either ruptured or destroyed totally. Thankfully, with the help of Di Rou here, we were able to concoct a medicinal pill that helped recover some of my strength. At most, I could only bring out 10 percent of my power right now." he replied.

"10 percent? And you managed to counter Shen Murong's fist in that condition?" Wei Shang exclaimed in disbelief.

Shen Murong's cultivation has already reached the Pinnacle stage of the Foundation Establishment realm, and while the latter did not use any skill art in that previous attack, its might was backed with spiritual Qi!

To think that a person could so effortlessly counter that with just 10 percent of his strength..

Obviously however, Duan Li did not understand what the other party meant to imply, so he shook his head.

"Huh? What do you mean I used 10 percent of my strength to counter him? If I did that, then he might have crashed all the way onto the Sunlong Mountain in the East!"

Puu!

His followers spurted out some of their saliva.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d.. then how much strength did you used to counter me? 8 percent?!" Shen Murong bellowed out, feeling discontent with what the other party just said.

Hearing this, Duan Li scratched the back of his head for a while before answering, "I only used pure martial arts to counter you.."

Puu!

Shen Murong was on the verge of insanity as he couldn't help but to think of this in his mind;

'You used pure martial arts to counter me without shattering your arm?'

'Have our disparity really grew that far in such a short amount of time?'

'Screw you!'

"d.a.m.n it! I'm going to enter that Eternal Maze or whatever this instant!" he shouted out and flew away.

"Me too." Fei Longwei that was silent all these while followed behind Shen Murong.

"Me as well!"

"I think I should go too.."

...

Just like that, all of his followers left him one by one, leaving only him alone as a cold wind blew.

Everyone, should't we celebrate first?

Why are all of you leaving in such a hurry?

Hais!
