Ling Tian Sword God

”It seems, my young friend, you really know nothing about the Imperial Clan.”

The vendor shook his head, then whispered, ”Who told you these princes are Empress Yunyao’s offspring? Empress Yunyao is still single; where would offspring come from?”

”These princes are the sons of the Supreme Emperor. When Empress Yunyao ascended the throne, it’s said she reached an agreement with the Supreme Emperor that the princes’ statuses remain unchanged, allowing them to maintain their princely identities and wield power after her coronation.”

”I see.”

Ling Chen gradually showed a look of understanding in his eyes, indeed confirming the complicated relations within the royal family. It’s likely Empress Yunyao had made considerable compromises with the royal direct line when she took the throne; otherwise, no matter how talented she was, she couldn’t suppress those old relics of the direct line and become a supreme empress.

Bang!

A violent collision sound erupted, interrupting Ling Chen’s thoughts. In his vision, the battle had reached its climax.

Though both the Third Prince and the Sixth Prince were the top figures of the younger generation of the Imperial Clan, Ling Xue and Lan Xingling were not weak either. Giving their all, the Third Prince and Sixth Prince naturally couldn’t take advantage, gaining nothing.

After a prolonged battle, Li Yunhe and Li Tianyi’s expressions became grave. They had initially thought Ling Xue and Lan Xingling were just two ordinary women to be easily snatched away but never expected these two women to be so troublesome.

However, since they had started the fight, they wouldn’t hold back. The two exchanged a glance and simultaneously struck, two dragon-shaped fist strengths swept out.

”Dragon Travels the World!”

They shouted in unison.

Roar!

Two dragon shadows soared out, merging into one during their advance, with a formidable momentum.

Ling Xue and Lan Xingling were shocked at the sight; they clearly had not anticipated these two to have such a seamless combo move. In their panic, they hastily exerted themselves, unleashing Palm Power and Sword Light to meet the ferocious giant dragon.

Bang bang!

The Palm Power from Lan Xingling and the sword qi from Ling Xue, merely upon contact with the giant dragon, were abruptly blown apart.

Seeing this, both Li Yunhe and Li Tianyi revealed mocking smiles consecutively; this move was their clan’s master technique, able to briefly merge their two fist strengths. With Ling Xue and Lan Xingling’s individual power, how could they possibly fend this off?

”Careful!”

Ling Xue’s pretty face changed, witnessing the giant dragon roar and swiftly approach Lan Xingling.

However, just as the giant dragon was about to hit Lan Xingling, unexpectedly, a figure appeared before her without warning, facing the roaring dragon, stretching out his right palm in those shocked gazes.

”Overestimating yourself!”

Li Tianyi’s pupils constricted, then he sneered cruelly.

Bang!

The giant dragon’s fist strength exploded, shocking ripples swept in all directions, raising monstrous dust and swirling gravel.

”To dare take on the moves of two princes with a bare palm, this person seems to have been shattered to pieces.”

A warrior watching shook his head.

But his words had just left his mouth when under the dust, a shadow faintly emerged.

”What?”

Li Yunhe’s face abruptly changed, staring fixedly at that shadow.

As the dust dissipated, a young figure appeared, with his clothing slightly torn but unharmed.

”Absolutely unscathed!”

Li Tianyi’s eyes nearly fell out.

The opponent had actually dissolved their combined attack barehanded, without harm; how was this possible?

”Ling Yu!”

Lan Xingling, recognizing Ling Chen’s shape, couldn’t help but exclaim.

Although she had guessed Ling Chen’s intervention, actually seeing him there surprised her greatly.

”You rascal, I thought upon seeing they were princes, you’d be too scared to act!”

Ling Xue also glared at Ling Chen.

”In your eyes, am I really that cowardly?”

Ling Chen shrugged helplessly.

”Ling Yu, you are called Ling Yu, you are of the Ling Family?”

Li Yunhe’s face grew serious; he wasn’t foolish, a guy who defeated their joint attack barefoot couldn’t be ordinary.

”Yes.”

Ling Chen nodded, spotting Ling Xue and Lan Xingling in danger; he naturally couldn’t stand by, no matter if they were princes.

”Are both Your Highnesses bullying two weak women in public? Just because you are part of the Imperial Clan, can you bully, behave recklessly and lawlessly?”

”Ling Yu, don’t meddle.”

Li Tianyi glared darkly, ”Even the Ling Family is just a vassal to our Imperial Clan; opposing us brings you no advantage.”

”I won’t turn a blind eye.”

Ling Chen’s expression unchanged, ”You two are not my match; considering your princely status, I grant you some respect. Let’s end this here!”

Though two princes, Ling Chen didn’t want to escalate matters, causing uncontrolled damage that might affect the Heavenly Sword tournament, which would be a loss.

”Damn it! This kid is too arrogant!”

Li Tianyi’s face clouded with fury; this beast dared show no respect, speaking boastfully before the crowd, clearly not recognizing his princely status.

Li Yunhe’s gaze churned with coldness; who were they? Ling Chen recklessly interfered; they weren’t blaming him, just asked him to retreat, already showing great leniency. Yet he didn’t know when to stop, audaciously furthered his gains, truly daring beyond belief.

Ling Chen, observing his opponent’s stubbornness, frowned slightly; it seemed the two didn’t want to end it peacefully. Just when he was about to speak, his eyes suddenly narrowed, subtly looking up towards the sky, where violent winds sounded abruptly, then a large figure encased in dazzling gold light, like a golden Buddha, descended, landing before the group of royal family members.

”In the Divine Capital, someone dares to disregard the Imperial Clan’s dignity, indeed, a bold one!”

Upon the golden light figure’s appearance, a thunderous shout echoed.

The large figure’s body slowly withdrew its golden light, finally revealing a rough-faced visage, yet on appearing unrestrained pride; his gaze holding ridicule, he glanced at Ling Chen and the others, then laughed.

”Second Brother! You’ve come at the right time!”

Upon seeing the golden Buddha-like figure arrive, Li Yunhe and Li Tianyi’s faces instantly showed a shade of joy.
