Returning to the cave mansion on the White Cloud Peak, Su Zhan furrowed his brows as he rembered sothing. With a wave of his hand, a pile of IOUs appeared.
"Cheng Yunmo, the Crown Prince of Yuan Kingdom, Xie Chen from the Cloud Orchid Sect of Zhen Kingdom If I rember correctly, it has been quite so ti since the Dark Star Forest expedition ended. It should be enough ti for these people to refine the Star Elent Fruits and then co to the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, right? Why haven't they arrived yet? Are they trying to dodge their debts?"
His gaze swept over the nas of those individuals, each of whom was a figure that could make countless people kneel in the outside world. Su Zhan felt a headache coming on.
If they are trying to dodge their debts, do I have to personally go to each of them to collect? It's really a headache.
He sighed and entered the cave mansion.
The expedition to the Dark Star Forest not only allowed him to achieve the Sun And Star Divine Body, but he also obtained nurous elixirs, treasures, and artifacts from Ye Yunxuan and other geniuses. Now is the perfect ti to refine and enhance his cultivation using these elixirs.
As Su Zhan swallowed a pill and began the process of refining and cultivating, Xia Qitian's carriage arrived at the foot of the White Cloud Peak.
"Who is that? How audacious, driving a carriage at the foot of the White Cloud Peak!"
"The guards are so powerful! They must be soone important!"
"Don't you recognize the Crimson Feather Horses exclusive to the royal family? It's clearly soone from the royal family!"
"Only soone of high status can use four Crimson Feather Horses It's the Crown Prince! His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince!"
As soone recognized Xia Qitian, a wave of excitent and commotion erupted among the curious disciples who had gathered nearby.
"His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince! The future King of Xia Kingdom!"
"How could the Crown Prince, co here? He's incredibly noble!"
"His Royal Highness, he"
"Silence!"
The Chief Steward of the Eastern Palace coldly uttered two words, infused with the power of true qi, causing his voice to explode like thunder above the heads of the disciples. Instantly, all the disciples were filled with fear and took two steps back.
"Your Highness, Su Zhan is still not here." The Chief Steward glanced at the stone path leading up to the White Cloud Peak and quietly reported.
"Su Zhan has been a great disappointnt to this palace!" An angry voice resonated.
The expression of the Chief Steward of the Eastern Palace changed, and he knelt beside the carriage curtain, filled with anxiety. Although he had reached the late Origin Elixir stage, in front of Xia Qitian, life and death were just a matter of a few words!
"Swish!"
The curtain of the carriage was pulled open.
Xia Qitian walked out of the carriage, glanced at the disciples, and then looked up at the White Cloud Peak, a cold smile playing on his lips.
"I underestimated the arrogance of this Su Zhan! Very well! This palace wants to see what qualifications he, a disciple of the Sword Sect, has to display such an attitude before this palace!"
"Chief Steward Qi, get up. This matter has nothing to do with you. This palace won't vent its anger on you."
"Thank you for your magnanimity, Your Highness!"
Chief Steward Qi felt relieved in his heart, stood up from the ground, and respectfully said, "Your Highness, this Su Zhan is truly too arrogant! He has no sense of propriety! Rest assured, I will make sure to teach him a lesson on behalf of Your Highness!"
"Hmm."
Xia Qitian nodded, his face filled with coldness. "Let's go! This palace wants to have a good encounter with this Su Zhan!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
The formation on White Cloud Peak was only ant to isolate the inner disciples from the true disciples, so it was nothing for Qi Lie (the steward), a strong cultivator at the late Origin Elixir stage.
Just as Qi Lie was preparing to forcefully break through the formation and enter, Chen Changfeng arrived.
"Qi Lie, Crown Prince, I don't care what your reasons are, but Su Zhan must not be hard, understood?"
Chen Changfeng landed in front of the two, stepping lightly on the wind, his voice cold.
Xia Qitian narrowed his eyes. "Is Elder Chen declaring war against our royal family?"
"Declare war?"
Chen Changfeng remained indifferent and said calmly, "You should be grateful. I arrived just in ti. Otherwise, if you let this dog by your side attack Su Zhan"
Chen Changfeng's tone turned even colder, looking at Xia Qitian, he said each word distinctly, "You will die!"
"How dare you threaten"
"Shut up!"
Just as Qi Lie was about to reprimand Chen Changfeng, he felt the pressure emanating from Chen Changfeng and felt a wave of fear. He dared not continue with his words.
Damn it!
I thought Su Zhan would be grateful to and I could easily recruit him! I didn't expect it to co to this! If only I had brought powerful people from my father's side, I wouldn't be stopped by Chen Changfeng now!
Xia Qitian felt annoyed in his heart, but at this mont, he had no other choice. He took a step back and said, "Elder Chen, are you being too rash? This palace only heard of Su Zhan's extraordinary talent and ca to pay a visit, that's all!"
"Since that's the case, Crown Prince, please proceed!"
Chen Changfeng smiled and said, "As for the Crown Prince's dog, there's no need for it to co along."
Qi Lie clenched his fist, feeling extrely humiliated, but he also knew that there was a significant gap between him and Chen Changfeng, who was almost half a step in the Fish Dragon Realm. So he held back his anger.
Xia Qitian fell silent for a mont, then nodded. "Very well, this palace will visit Su Zhan on my own!"
"You alone, Your Highness"
"Don't worry!"
Xia Qitian glanced at Chen Changfeng and raised his voice slightly. "What is this palace's status? No one within Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect dares to harm this palace. Otherwise, it would be self-destruction! Elder Chen, lead the way!"
"Very well." Chen Changfeng didn't argue further with Xia Qitian. He opened the formation on White Cloud Peak and led Xia Qitian towards Su Zhan's cave.
Soon, they arrived at Peak Seventeen's cave mansion.
"Su Zhan, the Crown Prince has arrived. Will you et him or not?" Chen Changfeng's voice echoed.
The doors of the cave opened.
Su Zhan glanced at Xia Qitian, who wore a bright yellow robe and had a cold and proud expression. He calmly said, "Since you're here, let's et." After speaking, he turned and walked into the cave.
This scene made Xia Qitian even more furious.
As the Crown Prince, Su Zhan didn't even show the slightest respect by bowing to him?
How audacious!
Xia Qitian took a deep breath and said to Chen Changfeng, "I will et with Su Zhan. Elder Chen, you don't need to co in, right?"
"Alright. It just so happens that I'm worried about the trouble your dog might cause. I'll keep an eye on him." Chen Changfeng laughed and turned away.
Xia Qitian was only at the peak of the Martial Master Realm and posed no threat to Su Zhan at all, so he wasn't worried about anything happening.
As he took a step forward, about to enter the cave, Xia Qitian suddenly caught sight of a crumpled piece of paper that Su Zhan had thrown on the ground. He recognized it as a special envelope used by the Eastern Palace. His face imdiately grew darker.
Entering the cave, Xia Qitian's gaze fell upon Su Zhan, who was sitting on a stone bench in the front courtyard. He said, "Brother Su, you're truly remarkable! This palace has tried multiple tis to invite you, but you've ignored it completely. I truly admire you, admire you!"
Su Zhan replied, "Crown Prince, if you have sothing to discuss, then let's discuss it. If not, don't disturb my cultivation."
Seeing Su Zhan's indifferent attitude, Xia Qitian felt increasingly angry. But considering that the purpose of this visit was to win over Su Zhan, even if he wanted Qi Lie to teach him a lesson, it was just a plan to use his influence. Therefore, he forcibly held back his anger.
"Su Zhan, since that's the case, this palace will be straightforward!" Xia Qitian took a step forward and said, "This palace is the Crown Prince of the Xia Kingdom. This palace admires you greatly and wants to recruit you!"
"Recruit ?" Su Zhan was montarily surprised.
"Yes!" Xia Qitian arrogantly said, "Although you have so talent, the foundation of Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect cannot compare to that of our royal family. If you join this palace, your future will be even more glorious! Moreover, this palace personally ca to recruit you. Do you know what an honor that is? Countless people in the world envy it!"
"Then let those envious people co. I'm not interested." Su Zhan shook his head.
Xia Qitian, displeased, said, "Do you think highly of yourself just because you have strong talent? Do you know that with your identity as a re disciple of the Sword Sect, it's only this palace showing favor to you? Other royal families would never"
"Crown Prince Cheng Yunmo pays respects to Brother Su!"
At that mont, a young man in splendid attire appeared at the entrance of the cave and respectfully saluted Su Zhan.
Xia Qitian, who had been extrely arrogant, turned his gaze toward the young man bowing respectfully and recognized him as Prince Cheng Yunmo. In an instant, he was completely bewildered.
