Chapter 855: Chapter 851: Rumors

Regarding his wife’s brother, he had long wanted to witness his abilities.

He knew that Li Chunhou had also long wanted to see what he was capable of.

Meeting today, both wishes could be fulfilled.

The three walked side by side towards the outskirts of the city, with Fu Zheng and Li Yuzhen following behind.

Li Chunhou said, ”Brother-in-law, I heard you’ve had some gains in the Spirit Communication Pavilion?”

His curious gaze scanned Chu Zhiyuan up and down.

Gaining anything in the Spirit Communication Pavilion indeed required both luck and insight.

You couldn’t lack either.

Lacking insight, you might encounter a treasure without realizing it. Lacking luck, you’d never encounter a treasure at all.

As for these treasures, ranked from low to high, the lowest grade was Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures, like spiritual materials and spirit grass, while the highest grade was Spiritual Treasures.

Chu Zhiyuan nodded. ”I gained a little.”

”Ha, a Spiritual Treasure! A Spiritual Treasure!” Li Chunhou couldn’t help but get irritated seeing his nonchalant appearance. ”That’s not ’a little,’ that’s hitting the jackpot!”

Chu Zhiyuan shook his head. ”Just obtained one, then was sent out.”

”One isn’t enough?!” Li Chunhou said irritably, ”Brother-in-law, you’re really greedy!”

Li Miaotan rolled her eyes at him. ”How can you have too many Spiritual Treasures?”

”Well, that’s true.” Li Chunhou chuckled, ”Fengtian Palace must be feeling quite the sting now!”

With a look of satisfaction, he said, ”They thought they had played a clever trick, but in the end, ha ha!”

He was overjoyed.

Li Miaotan smiled beautifully.

She also felt extremely satisfied.

Fengtian Palace had been pressing hard on them, and she was both resentful and powerless.

This feeling filled her with hatred and increased her dissatisfaction with Fengtian Palace.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled and said, ”Even the disciples of Fengtian Palace find it difficult to obtain the Spiritual Treasures in the Spirit Communication Pavilion.”

Li Chunhou said, ”Exactly, it’s all about luck and ability. If it were so easy, they’d have long taken everything!”

Chu Zhiyuan observed that both were dissatisfied with Fengtian Palace, and even the Eldest Prince felt the same.

What about the Emperor?

However, among the common folk, Fengtian Palace was revered, and the people held it in great awe.

”Brother-in-law, make sure to show us that Spiritual Treasure of yours later.”

”Third Brother, the conditions for activating Spiritual Treasures are stringent. With my current capabilities, I can only activate it once.”

”Is the cost significant?”

”It would drain all my power, leaving me defenseless.”

”Then you’d better be careful with its use,” Li Chunhou quickly advised. ”It shouldn’t be used unless absolutely necessary.”

”Exactly... I’m also eager to see its power, so today, let’s test the sword on these demons!”

Li Chunhou frowned. ”This time, there are no shortage of experts from the Demon Clan, causing quite a few casualties among the City Guards. The Court is already voicing dissatisfaction!”

He said angrily, ”As if it’s all my sister’s fault, what a bunch of cowards!”

There were petitions stating that the mass invasion of high-ranking experts from the Demon Clan was all because the Twelfth Princess had fled the Outer Realm Battlefield on her own accord.

This was bringing disaster upon themselves, an act unworthy of a noble princess.

Chu Zhiyuan frowned. ”How did they know your wife returned?”

”At that time, there were also our Spirit Guards around the moon spirit grass.”

”Did those Spirit Guards return too?”

”They sent back messages,” Li Chunhou shook his head. ”They were acting out of concern for my sister’s safety.”

Chu Zhiyuan nodded. ”The moon spirit grass has already been consumed by your wife, what good would it do for them to chase after it?”

Their target was the moon spirit grass, but it had already been devoured; it would be better to cuss a few times and move on with their proper business.

Why were they so relentless?

Even if furious, they should know that with Li Miaotan’s Phoenix Bloodline, they couldn’t harm her.

Li Chunhou sneered, ”Now there’s a claim that if they could drink my sister’s blood, they could potentially obtain part of her Phoenix Bloodline’s power.”

Chu Zhiyuan looked at her in surprise.

Li Miaotan shook her head. ”I don’t know who spread that rumor.”

”How vile!” Chu Zhiyuan gasped.

There’s possibly no one who can verify it, but often people would rather believe it might be true.

Even if it’s just a rumor, there are countless people betting on the off chance it could be true.

”If I ever find out who started this rumor...” Li Chunhou gritted his teeth.

Initially, thanks to the Phoenix Bloodline, no Demon or Monster Clan members dared target her.

But now, due to this rumor, more elite members of the Demon Clan and Monster Clan have come, all wanting to kill her.

Li Miaotan shook her head. ”Third Brother, don’t waste your efforts, it’s impossible to trace.”

There’s no way to trace the origin of such a rumor already layered by numerous retellings; it’s nearly impossible to pursue each layer and is just a waste of effort.

”But...” Li Chunhou couldn’t swallow this outrage, declaring angrily, ”Such despicable behavior!”

Though people now may not fully understand the Phoenix Bloodline, they know its power.

The opportunity to gain a portion of the Phoenix Bloodline’s power is indeed an irresistible lure.

One doesn’t need the Phoenix Bloodline’s power for Nirvana Rebirth; even a boost to one’s life force, ensuring survival at key moments, is an immense benefit.

Chu Zhiyuan said, ”Actually, it’s simple enough as long as we eliminate anyone bearing ill intentions.”

”Sigh...” Li Chunhou shook his head.

That’s too ambitious a statement.

The Phoenix Dynasty leads the Human Race but stands at a disadvantage against the Demon Clan and Monster Clan.

If it weren’t for arriving in the Human World, where they are significantly weakened, they wouldn’t bother with it; otherwise, the Human World would already be conquered by them.

Li Miaotan said, ”I’ve had enough rest these past few days; I’ll be returning to the Outer Realm Battlefield in a couple of days.”

Li Chunhou opened his mouth but then closed it helplessly.

He wanted to say there was no need to return and to just stay, but he knew he couldn’t say it.

Staying longer in the Imperial City would only attract more experts from the Demon Clan and Monster Clan.

Eventually, even if she didn’t want to leave, the courtiers or even the Emperor would force her to go.

He felt a fire of rage with nowhere to vent, bitterly wishing, ”I really want to kill all those demons! ... And the one who spread that rumor!”

Chu Zhiyuan’s gaze naturally turned toward the Yuanzhen Dynasty’s direction.

He had a feeling that such insidious tactics were most in line with Yuanzhen Dynasty’s style.

”Is it the Yuanzhen Dynasty?” Li Chunhou asked urgently.

Chu Zhiyuan replied, ”Hard to say.”

There’s absolutely no evidence regarding this matter, and it could even be a setup by Yujing or even internal court factions.

”It’s definitely them!” Li Chunhou said angrily, ”I just regret not being in power; otherwise, I’d make them pay!”

As they spoke, they didn’t stop walking and soon arrived outside the South City Gate.

Stepping outside the city gates, among the trees beside the main road, Chu Zhiyuan immediately sensed a chilling atmosphere caused by many watchful eyes on them.

The Super Sense had Insight into the presence of over four hundred demon clan experts and more than a hundred monster clan experts.

They grouped themselves in squads of eight to nine individuals, maintaining their distances from each other.

Clearly, there was mutual distrust, as they were competitors.

They remained vigilant of others seizing the lead, as there was only one Li Miaotan, and her blood was finite.

Chu Zhiyuan thought for a moment. ”We need a way to gather them together for the action.”

”That’s simple,” Li Chunhou said. ”I’ll handle it!”

With that, he stood atop the treetops and let out a long howl, ”Li Miaotan is here!”

His voice echoed like a tidal wave.

Chu Zhiyuan chuckled.

Simple and direct, just like the Third Prince.

However, as for the effect...

The experts of the demon clan and the monster clan didn’t gather because of the long howl; instead, they glanced over cautiously and ignored it.

Li Chunhou’s face darkened.

Li Miaotan shook her head. ”Third Brother, let me do it.”

She shouted, ”Li Miaotan is here, who dares to come court death?!”

Her voice was clear and resonant, soaring up into the clouds.
