Chapter 236: Chapter 122: The Seventh Greatest Battle Array Technique, Roar of the Demon Bear
The hundreds of Martial Cultivators present, upon seeing the Little Yu King in Golden Armor, immediately showed reverence on their faces. In the Six Prefectures of Nanjiang, who didn’t know of Prince Yu’s Mansion, and who didn’t recognize the Little Yu King!
The Great Xia Dynasty’s Xiao Family commanded numerous Martial Cultivators. The Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect and Holy Dragon Association, which they controlled, dominated the world. Despite this, Emperor Xiao of Great Xia still referred to King Yu as his Sixth Brother and held him in high regard.
Firstly, King Yu’s cultivation had already reached the late stage of the Ninth Layer, just one step shy of Emperor Xiao’s Ninth-Layer Perfection. Such strength ranked among the top ten in Great Xia. Even the Great Demons and Demon Kings who ravaged Great Xia dared not approach Unrivaled City, where Prince Yu’s Mansion stood.
Secondly, King Yu possessed a Tier Three Celestial Demon Bone. Although he had only one, its divine might couldn’t compare to that of the Xiao Family’s eighteen Celestial Demon Bones which guarded various regions of Great Xia. A Tier Three Celestial Demon Bone, however, was an absolute treasure of the world. Indeed, even the Xiao Family possessed only three Tier Three Celestial Demon Bones; their remaining fifteen were Tier Two Celestial Demon Bones!
This Little Yu King, Yu Changge, was King Yu’s third son. Young as he was, he had already reached the mid-grade of the Sixth Layer. With limitless potential, he was acclaimed as the foremost prodigy of the younger generation in the Six Prefectures of Nanjiang! Coupled with the numerous treasures of Prince Yu’s Mansion and the world-renowned King Yu Battle Array, how could the hundreds of Martial Cultivators present not be in awe of the Little Yu King!
At this moment, even Hua Yanluo, an Elder of the Celestial Sect, frowned slightly. A trace of apprehension flickered in her eyes as she looked at the Little Yu King. Although her Martial Arts Realm was higher than the Little Yu King’s, she knew very well that if she were to engage in a life-or-death battle with a formidable expert like him, she would undoubtedly be the one to perish. Never mind the Cultivation Techniques and Battle Arrays of Prince Yu’s Mansion; the Little Yu King’s numerous treasures alone were beyond anything an Elder of the Profound Phoenix Celestial Sect could compare to!
However, seeing the Little Yu King suddenly appear now, Hua Yanluo naturally guessed his intentions, her heart filled with a mix of joy and apprehension.
In the sedan, Xiaoo Ying’Er also frowned slightly, her bright eyes somewhat dim.
Saying he hurried over as soon as he got the news... this Little Yu King is absolutely talking nonsense. Once the Profound Phoenix Flame is released, it can be seen from thousands of miles away. How could he have only just received the news! The Little Yu King is simply taking advantage of my being in the Secret Realm and unable to summon the Celestial Sect’s Grand Elders to show off! However, with the Little Yu King coming to aid me, what can I say? Go away, I don’t care about you? Whether I live or die, what does it matter to you? I hate your pretty-boy look? After all, I am still a Princess of Great Xia; how could I stoop to such petty words?
Xiaoo Ying’Er sighed quietly to herself and said, "Little Yu King, you’ve come a thousand miles to rescue me; I am deeply gratified. However, that Tier Seven Great Demon is exceedingly powerful. I hope you will be cautious and not underestimate it!"
The Little Yu King laughed heartily upon hearing this. "Thank you for the reminder, Princess! I shall go capture that Great Demon and avenge your previous plight!"
With that, he, along with the six Golden Armor Guards beside him, leaped into the air. In just a few bounds, they were several miles away, heading towards the black cloud.
Lin Xuankong, standing beside the sedan, couldn’t help but frown.
I was just about to negotiate a deal with the Princess, and now an interloper has arrived—and it’s that detestable Little Yu King from before! According to Zheng Yunrui, this Little Yu King is at the mid-grade of the Sixth Layer, and his guards are at the early stage of the Sixth Layer and the late stage of the Fifth Layer. Can they really defeat a Tier Seven Great Demon with just their strength? He seems confident enough... Can people from Prince Yu’s Mansion truly fight across tiers so easily? I wonder what they’re relying on—treasures, Battle Armor, Demon Pearls, or something else?
Lin Xuankong frowned as he looked into the distance.
Beside the sedan, the maid who had rebuked Lin Xuankong snorted coldly.
"HUMPH! Some Mu Shiba who appeared out of nowhere, trying to coerce the Princess, demanding benefits in advance and haggling with Her Highness! Now you see who’s truly formidable, don’t you? My Third Princess’s Feeng Wei is renowned everywhere! All the world’s experts heed her command! Even the Little Yu King from Prince Yu’s Mansion has come a thousand miles to save the Princess!"
Lin Xuankong furrowed his brows and looked at the maid. But before he could speak, Xiaoo Ying’Er frowned at her. "Qiing, is this how I’ve taught you to speak?"
Xiaoo Ying’Er was troubled. In her view, if this Mu Shiba before her truly had some ability, she would rather pay a price to have him act than be rescued by this duplicitous Little Yu King!
Seeing Xiaoo Ying’Er’s expression darken slightly, the maid Qiing’s heart lurched with panic. She immediately knelt and dared not speak further. Yet, when she thought of Mu Shiba’s disrespect towards the Princess, her eyes, as she covertly glanced at Lin Xuankong, were still filled with indignation.
Xiaoo Ying’Er shook her head slightly and said, "I would rather people be like this Mu Shiba, saying what’s on their mind, than have them act with insincere deference towards me. And I certainly don’t want to see someone bide their time while I’m fleeing for my life, only to step in at my moment of distress to make a name for themselves!"
Lin Xuankong’s eyes flickered upon hearing this. This Third Princess of Great Xia is certainly surrounded by a lot of drama... It seems there’s definitely a problem between Prince Yu’s Mansion and the Great Xia Xiao Family! Fortunately, I decided early on not to get too involved with this Third Princess of Great Xia. Now, it looks like this deal might not even happen. What a pity; I was hoping to fleece some good things from this Saintess!
