Palace.
Two streaks of light ca shooting from the distance.
Not a single Imperial Guard dared to block their way.
For the aura that these two figures exuded was overwhelmingly powerful, causing one’s heart to tremble!
Moreover, Xia Jiu You had already ordered that today a King would be visiting, and no one was to intercept.
Shortly, the two streaks of light landed in front of Zhengyang Palace.
And then stepped inside with composure.
Ling Chen’s gaze fell upon the four figures within Zhengyang Palace.
Apart from Li Xuan and Xia Jiu You, there were also two unfamiliar faces.
An elder and a youth.
The youth, draped in red robes with eyebrows of a fiery red hue, was particularly eye-catching.
"Young Sect Master has arrived!"
Li Xuan smiled.
"Mhm."
The red-browed youth nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping towards Ling Chen. A hint of surprise flashed across his eyes as he said, "You are Ling Chen?"
At such a young age and possessing such cultivation, in the Eastern Domain of Qing Province, he counts as a genius as well.
"Yes."
Ling Chen responded with a slight smile, his words neither servile nor overbearing.
"Not bad!"
The red-browed youth nodded.
Compared to Ling Chen, Xia Jiu You who always flattered suddenly seed much inferior.
Such deanor indeed is not sothing ordinary people can match.
No wonder he is able to obtain the Emperor’s Inheritance!
At this mont, Ji Wuya was also sizing up the red-browed youth.
His expression involuntarily turned solemn.
This person’s cultivation was actually even above his own.
Truly worthy of being the Young Sect Master of Burning Fla Sect!
"My na is Ye Fentian."
The red-browed youth introduced himself.
"Have t Young Master Ye!"
Ling Chen bowed slightly.
"There’s no need for formalities, please sit down!"
Ye Fentian gestured to a seat, smiling.
Before that, it seed that a banquet had been taking place.
In the hall, there were precisely six seats.
"Many thanks, Young Sect Master!"
Ling Chen and Ji Wuya took their seats.
Even though Ji Wuya was outright ignored, he did not feel humiliated at all.
He was well aware that his cultivation level was nothing in the eyes of Ye Fentian.
Seeing the two sit down, Xia Jiu You swept a cold gaze over Ling Chen.
"Young Sect Master..."
Xia Jiu You had just begun to speak when he was directly interrupted by Ye Fentian.
Ye Fentian picked up a cup of wine, toasted from afar towards Ling Chen, saying, "Young Master Ling, please!"
"Young Master Ye, please!"
Ling Chen raised his cup.
The others also raised their cups and then drained them in one gulp.
"Young Master Ling, I heard that three months ago, while you were still in the Primordial Pill Realm, you slew a Palace Mansion Realm King?"
Ye Fentian said with a smile.
"Young Sect Master jests. It was rely a newly advanced Palace Mansion Realm King, not worth ntioning at all!"
Ling Chen replied modestly.
Ye Fentian waved his hand and said, "You can’t say that! After all, the opponent is a King! Both of us are Kings, naturally aware of the disparity at that level of realm! Such a military exploit, within our Eastern Domain of Qing Province, can also be considered quite splendid!"
"You flatter too much, Young Sect Master."
Ling Chen smiled.
Listening to the conversation between the two, Xia Jiu You’s face turned ashen.
On his own turf, drinking his wine, right in front of his face, using his deceased son to embarrass him – is there such a way to bully soone?
But facing the colossal entity of the Burning Fla Sect, his anger dare not express itself.
He could only etch this humiliation deep into his heart.
All he wished for was to act swiftly, capture Ling Chen, and avenge his deceased son.
"Even if we don’t ntion that, in just a short three months progressing from the Primordial Pill Realm to the Palace Mansion Realm, it seems Young Master Ling has an exceptionally powerful talent!"
Ye Fentian stared intently at Ling Chen.
Just from Ling Chen’s cultivation speed, one could infer how formidable the Emperor’s Inheritance he received must be!
Even Ye Fentian’s sect master father, although also an emperor, could not make soone advance to the Palace Mansion Realm in re three months!
Even the lowest level of Green Palace would be impossible!
Of course, by advancent, he referred to promotion without future complications.
The use of Elixirs didn’t count.
"It was just luck."
Ling Chen laughed again.
This ti, it genuinely was luck.
If not for that giant claw’s strike, his ascension to the ranks of the Palace Mansion Realm kings would have likely taken several more months.
Of course, heard in Ye Fentian’s ears, this still sounded like modesty.
"Young Master Ling, with such trendous talent, it’s just a pity..."
Ye Fentian sighed.
"What’s a pity?"
Ling Chen asked.
Ye Fentian continued: "If I had t Young Master Ling sooner, I could have invited you to join our Burning Fla Sect for cultivation. With your talent, your future achievents within our sect would be boundless. However, you killed the son of King Xia."
"The Great Xia Dynasty is under our Burning Fla Sect, and Xia Jiuyou is also one of our people. Since you killed his son, even as the Young Sect Master, it’s inconvenient for to take you back to the sect!"
Upon hearing this, a cold smile crept across Ling Chen’s heart.
Is it finally ti to get to the point?
"Young Sect Master, back then the Crown Prince wanted to kill ; I couldn’t just submit to death, could I? In self-defense, I accidentally killed the Crown Prince, for which I feel extrely guilty!"
Ling Chen said.
His reputation hadn’t spread to the Burning Fla Sect yet.
But why else would this Young Sect Master co here if not for his Emperor’s Inheritance?
"Oh? Is that so?"
Ye Fentian said: "How co that’s not what I’ve heard? How co I’ve heard that you struck at Xia Biluo first? Then why did he strike at you?"
"Actually, it’s nothing!"
Ling Chen sighed and said, "Isn’t it just an Emperor’s Inheritance? He was the Crown Prince of Great Xia, and I, a citizen of Great Xia—wouldn’t I have obediently handed it over at his command? Yet he insisted on fighting ! He wanted to see what qualified to receive the Emperor’s Inheritance. As a result, I accidentally killed him in an unfortunate mishap."
Upon hearing this, the corners of Ye Fentian’s and others’ mouths twitched ever so slightly.
Just an Emperor’s Inheritance?
Do you know how precious the inheritance of an emperor is?
"Nonsense!"
Xia Jiuyou roared.
Although it was Xia Biluo who attacked Ling Chen first, the facts were definitely not as Ling Chen had described.
"Nonsense about what?"
Ling Chen glanced at Xia Jiuyou, speaking solemnly: "With just a word from the Young Sect Master, I am willing to hand over the Emperor’s Inheritance I received to the Young Sect Master!"
As he spoke, Ling Chen took out a storage ring.
Indeed, this ring had been given to him by Emperor Yan.
These external things, even if given away, did not cause him distress.
The most crucial inheritance was actually Emperor Yan’s transformation of his Dantian and the Green Lotus Sword Manual.
Hearing this, Ye Fentian was also tempted.
He had not expected Ling Chen to be so perceptive!
He was actually willing to give away the Emperor’s Inheritance!
That was the very reason he had co here!
But now, despite the Emperor’s Inheritance being right in front of him, he couldn’t bring himself to take it.
He was the Young Sect Master of the Burning Fla Sect, the future ruler of the Eastern Domain of Qing Province.
He was going to take sothing from Ling Chen?
How could this feel so strange?
Listening to Ling Chen’s words, Xia Jiuyou suddenly felt that sothing was not right.
If it was really so, the Young Sect Master might actually help Ling Chen.
His plan to use the Young Sect Master to deal with Ling Chen was going down the drain.
"Young Sect Master, you don’t need to listen to his sweet words. The most crucial part of the Emperor’s Inheritance has likely already been integrated into his body. I have been there before, and what I received was a King’s Inheritance. There lies an inheritance that helps cultivators at the ninth level of the Primordial Pill Realm to ascend to Palace Mansion Realm kings, and it can even enhance a person’s talent!"
Xia Jiuyou hurriedly said.
