“Wang Chong, although you are a King of the Great Tang, you are a noble without a position, one who has been driven from the court. All the important matters of state no longer have anything to do with you. No matter what it is you want to say, your actions have already crossed the line. I will give you one more chance to release Pusan Tuoye and the other foreign royals, as well as the Hu that have gathered here, and then disband your Public Order Squad! I can still let you off if you do these things, but once the First Prince arrives, things won’t be that easy to settle!”

Li Junxian took two steps forward and coldly stared at Wang Chong.

Although Li Junxian didn’t like King Qi’s attitude, he didn’t really care. Whether or not King Qi had intervened, he still had a problem to settle with Wang Chong.

“Hmph, and if I say no?”

Wang Chong’s expression gradually chilled.

“It doesn’t matter what you choose. The choice isn’t yours.”

As Li Junxian spoke, he reached out with his left hand and tapped on the silver sheath at his waist. Clang! The cry of a sword resounded through the air. A moment later, the air trembled as a vast and majestic sword intent radiated outward.

At this moment, all the swords and sabers owned by the Public Order Squad cavalry, King Qi’s men, the Imperial Army soldiers on the walls, and the martial artists in the crowd began to tremble and buzz as if they wanted to break free and fly into the air.

Wang Chong couldn’t help but squint, a grimace on his face.

He had seen quite a few people use sword arts, himself included, and he was a powerful expert of the sword. But this was the first time he had ever seen an explosion of sword intent that could actually control the swords of others. From this move alone, he could tell that Li Junxian had reached a terrifying level of strength.

But Wang Chong soon regained his composure.

“So, Secretariat Advisor, you are threatening me?”

Wang Chong coldly laughed. He had to admit that the situation had gone past what he had expected. This was the first time anyone had ever dared to threaten him like this.

Clang!

Wang Chong urged his horse forward to meet Li Junxian.

The two were like a tiger and lion meeting on a narrow road, neither backing down.

Buzz!

Sensing the dangerous aura being exuded by the pair, the crowd gathered in front of the Imperial City fell silent.

The Public Order Squad cavalry, the Penal Court soldiers, the Imperial Army soldiers on the gates, and everyone else waited with bated breath and shock in their eyes.

Wang Chong and Li Junxian were the two proud sons of the Great Tang. Although they had their disagreements, their quarrels had only ever been verbal. But it now seemed like things were going to get physical.

At this moment, an elderly voice came from behind King Qi, tinged with an extreme dignity. “Your Highness, why don’t we…”

“Ha, no rush! Let’s see how things play out!”

King Qi sinisterly narrowed his eyes.

After getting such a rare opportunity, he was in no mood to go away empty-handed.

“Su Shixuan, take these people away!” Wang Chong coldly ordered. “With this king here, I’d like to see if anyone dares to try anything!”

He had yielded enough ground in this militarist-Confucian conflict. He would have everyone know that the lion of the battlefield was not something that anyone could provoke, whether in battle or in the court.

“Yes! Your Highness!”

Su Shixuan immediately began to escort Pusan Tuoye away.

“Secretariat Advisor!”

Pusan Tuoye and the other royals paled and immediately called out to Li Junxian.

“Release Pusan Tuoye!” Li Junxian icily called out.

Rumble!

His sword left its sheath, and a dazzling white beam of Sword Qi soared into the air. At the same time, Li Junxian vanished from his original spot and shot toward Wang Chong.

“Since that’s the case, don’t blame me for taking action!”

Li Junxian’s cold and emotionless voice resounded above the Imperial Palace. At that moment, everyone could see a four-foot silver sword suspended in the air, radiating boundless righteousness.

‘Righteous’! ‘Upright’!

These two words flashed in the air and then vanished, and then everything seemed to freeze.

All the soldiers, Hu, and commoners in the area suddenly felt their minds go blank, and it felt like time had stopped.

A moment later, a majestic beam of Sword Qi that seemed like an unending river descended toward Wang Chong.

This attack seemed to transcend space and time, robbing the world of its luster. Even the ground in front of the Imperial Palace seemed about to break apart.

Bang!

As Li Junxian struck, Wang Chong vanished from atop the White-hoofed Shadow in a flash of light.

“Li Junxian, you brought this on yourself!”

Wang Chong’s roar was like a peal of thunder.

“Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art!”

A moment later, the images of the sun and moon manifested in the air, and Stellar Energy that transcended the peak Great General level flooded out of Wang Chong’s body and slammed into Li Junxian’s Sword Qi.

“Great Yin Yang Art!”

Wang Chong immediately used one of the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art’s three techniques. It was still the same technique, but its grandeur and power seemed even more solid and stable. Moreover, the Yin and Yang were no longer so distinct, as they were beginning to show signs of fusion.

This was the result of Wang Chong comprehending the essence of the Origin Immortal Art and fusing it with the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art.

Bang!

Boundless Stellar Energy collided with Li Junxian’s vast Sword Qi, causing a deafening explosion, and a fierce gale swept over the entire square.

Neeeigh! The crowd was thrown into chaos by the Stellar Energy shockwave, and the soldiers, both from the Public Order Squad and the Penal Court, were forced back. At the same time, dust and gravel were swept up into the air.

In the sky, the illusory sun and moon vanished while Li Junxian’s vast Sword Qi crumbled away.

This exchange had been a draw.

“Now is the moment!” Nearby, King Qi’s eyes coldly gleamed, and he immediately gave the order. Behind him, three old men with long white hair, wearing gray-black robes, took action.

“Secretariat Advisor, we’ve come to help you!”

While Wang Chong was distracted by Li Junxian, the three figures soared into the air like eagles to attack Wang Chong from behind. One of them suddenly veered off and began to make his way toward Su Shixuan and the foreign royals.

These three had been standing behind King Qi all this time, restraining their energy so that they seemed no different from ordinary people. It was only now that they revealed their true power, and their Stellar Energy was so condensed and refined that one could tell at a glance that they were top-class experts.

With their immense power, these three should have joined with Li Junxian to attack Wang Chong from all sides, but this trio had chosen instead to wait until Li Junxian had distracted Wang Chong to strike from the back.

“Hmph, finally couldn’t restrain yourself?”

Wang Chong narrowed his eyes, which gleamed with a sharp light. The three experts at King Qi’s side clearly cultivated some special art that could restrain their Stellar Energy until they seemed like an ordinary person. Not even a peak Great General would be able to tell the difference.

But in front of Wang Chong, who had a Psychic Energy five times stronger than experts of a similar level, these three had no secrets.

Wang Chong had been guarding against them from the moment they appeared.

“Life Execution!”

The Origin Immortal Sword flew from its sheath and into Wang Chong’s hand, at the same time unleashing a Sword Qi that was countless times brighter than the sun.

This bolt of Sword Qi split into three, one for each member of the trio.

Upon seeing Wang Chong’s attack, the Three Elders of the Northern Sea decided to charge straight at Wang Chong.

“The Darkness of the Northern Sea!”

“The Northern Sea Turns to Mulberry Fields!”

“The Kun Rises from the Northern Sea!”

The three unleashed their vast Stellar Energy, which climbed and climbed, soaring past the Great General level and entering the Subtle realm.
