Nine Revolutions Star Transformation

Chapter 330: Chapter 339: Punishment for Two

The title of ’Prince’ carries significant weight, and only now does the crowd realize this, causing everyone to kneel in respect to Chu Linfeng.

Chu Linfeng then said, ”Everyone, please rise. I, Chu Linfeng, grew up here in Liuyun City. We are all neighbors, and I am not one for formalities. Let everyone disperse.”

The crowd finally understood why Chu Linfeng had so many top-grade Star Stones. It turned out he was a prince. If someone else claimed to be a prince, people might have thought they were bluffing. But since the current City Lord knelt and proclaimed it himself, they couldn’t help but believe it.

Everyone was extremely curious about how he became a prince, but none dared to approach and ask, as doing so would be akin to courting death.

Zhu Hai and Lin Ziping remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to stand. Only now did they realize the gravity of the situation, and their heads might literally roll for this.

Sima Pingchang then ordered them to be taken away. Chu Linfeng whispered to him, ”Do not trouble them for now, but a little scare would do them good to serve as a lesson.”

News of Chu Linfeng being a prince quickly spread through Liuyun City, leaving countless people in disbelief, yet accepting this fact.

After leaving the city gates, Chu Linfeng said to Meng Ji, ”Come, let me take you to Liuyun Mountain. The sunset view here is truly remarkable!”

Saying this, he took Meng Ji’s hand, a gesture she understood meant that Chu Linfeng, not having broken through to the Celestial Martial Realm, couldn’t use the Power of Space and thus couldn’t fly.

They then soared into the air, heading towards the distant Liuyun Mountain, leaving behind many amazed and envious gazes at the city gates.

Upon reaching the mountaintop, Chu Linfeng found a clean stone and sat down. Meng Ji sat beside him, looking at the scenery below.

Chu Linfeng said, ”I used to love coming to this peak to absorb the Star Power. I heard that being closer to the stars on the mountaintop would allow for more absorption. But now, looking back, it seems quite ridiculous.”

”Lin Feng, going to the Sea Domain this time is very dangerous. How do you plan to go? There are two ways: using the Teleportation Array or going directly,” Meng Ji said.

”If there’s a Teleportation Array, the array would be best; it saves the trouble on the road,” Chu Linfeng replied.

”However, using the Teleportation Array is also troublesome. Not many people know about it, and there’s a restriction that only those who have reached the Celestial Martial Realm can use it. If you want to teleport, you must break through,” Meng Ji looked at Chu Linfeng and said.

Chu Linfeng pondered for a moment before smiling and said, ”I don’t know when I’ll be able to break through, so I’ll choose the other path. Meng Ji, I am very curious, where exactly is the Demon Realm?”

”The entrance to the Demon Realm is also restricted. It’s invisible and requires Demonic Qi to be revealed. Why do you ask? Are you preparing to accept me?” Meng Ji smiled.

”No, I’m wondering about the status of the Six Great Demon Generals. If they awaken, the world will be in chaos, and with my current limited strength, I can’t stop them,” Chu Linfeng said.

Meng Ji grew increasingly curious about Chu Linfeng, finding that he knew too many secrets, even about the Six Demon Generals, which were highly confidential matters.

”Are you thinking of slaying the Six Demon Generals? Those are my uncles, you know. Besides, they haven’t awakened; why worry about them?” Meng Ji said, feeling a bit helpless.

Chu Linfeng looked at Meng Ji and said, ”That is the fundamental reason I rejected you. You are born with beauty and possess the Demon Yin Body, making you an ideal partner for me. But because your identity may make you an enemy, what will I do then?”

”Actually, the Demon Generals aren’t as evil as you think. They are merely misunderstood and deemed villains by the world, while some hypocrites among your kind are far less upright,” Meng Ji said.

”Alright, Meng Ji, let’s not discuss this topic. When I am strong enough to resolve these issues, I’ll give you an explanation!” Chu Linfeng said earnestly.

”I will wait for that day. In this life, no matter how you treat me, I, Chen Zixuan, will be your woman, until death do us part,” Meng Ji said.

As the sun sets, the most enchanting view of dusk, with golden rays illuminating the entire Liuyun Mountain, is immensely captivating.

”After viewing this dusk, I wonder when I’ll see it again. How wonderful it would be to live a simple life without slaughter or vendettas. Alas, the wheel of fate allows me no time to stop,” Chu Linfeng said, getting up.

”Lin Feng, let’s go back. Those two people on the street are still waiting for your decision,” Meng Ji said.

The two then returned directly to the City Lord’s Mansion, where Lin Ziping and Zhu Hai were tied to two wooden stakes, looking utterly disheveled, far from their former arrogant selves on the street.

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi’s father also hurried over, seemingly intending to plead for mercy for the two.

Although Chu Linfeng was now a prince, he shouldn’t lose his manners, so he stepped forward and said to Lin Dong, ”Lin Feng greets Father-in-law!”

”Your Highness is too courteous; this commoner cannot bear it!” Lin Dong said, trembling with fear, glancing at Chu Linfeng.

”Father-in-law, it seems you’ve come to plead for those two, but I might disappoint you. As the saying goes, the nation has its laws and the family its rules. By offending me on the street, they have undermined the Royal Family’s dignity. If not for Ruoxi, their families would face execution,” Chu Linfeng stated.

Lin Ziping and Zhu Hai heard this loud and clear, turning pale with fright, especially Zhu Hai, whose pants seemed soaked, possibly out of fear.

”Is there no room for negotiation? Not even for Ruoxi’s sake?” Lin Dong asked, still somewhat unwilling.

”No, you see, the Second Prince is also present here. If he holds them accountable for daring to offend the Royal Family and Relatives, your Liu Family will face immediate execution. I am already being quite lenient. Do not be ungrateful,” Chu Linfeng said sternly.

Lin Dong dared not speak further, only watching helplessly as Lin Ziping and Zhu Hai remained bound to the stakes.

At this point, Chu Yuankai and Sima Pingchang also walked over. Chu Yuankai said, ”Lin Feng, let’s just let it go. After all, she is Ruoxi’s sister and future brother-in-law; consider Ruoxi’s feelings.”

”Father, don’t say more; my mind is made up. The humiliation I faced at the Chu Family and what happened on the street today will be paid back. Even the Liu Family won’t be spared.

Issue my order to confiscate Liu Family’s properties. Execute Liu the Dog and his precious son in public tomorrow as a warning,” Chu Linfeng said fiercely, shocking everyone.

Hearing this, Lin Dong realized that there was no chance for reconciliation. The situation was no longer as before. Chu Linfeng was now an exalted prince, far from the despised waste of the past.

”Men! Bring a brazier. I plan to place this lad on it and roast him slowly until his blood is completely dried!” Chu Linfeng commanded.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Hai began to wail, ”Prince, I beg you, please spare me. I won’t dare again.”

”Really? I might consider sparing you, but you must agree to one condition...”
