Chapter 844

Taking the Initiative to Provoke

"The First Prince has come out of seclusion today!

It's said that the First Prince went into seclusion to cultivate after being conferred the title of Heavenly Marquis more than a month ago, hoping to improve his cultivation. Now that he has come out, his cultivation must have improved greatly! "

"Yes!

Because the First Prince is in seclusion, he hasn't used the Heavenly Marquis' token to go to the Imperial Barracks to select 655,555 Imperial Soldiers. I'm afraid that he's coming out of seclusion today for the 655,555 Imperial Soldiers. "

"He's indeed heading towards the Imperial Barracks!

The First Prince's talent is peerless, and he stood out in the ranking tournament where geniuses gathered. With the 655,555 Imperial Soldiers, I'm afraid that the First Prince's personal strength is no weaker than the five great clans. "

On the streets, the bustling cultivators' eyes were filled with envy as they chattered incessantly like little birds.

For most of the cultivators on the streets, Huangfu Wudao was a lofty figure with great strength and peerless talent. He was the object of worship in many cultivators' hearts.

As for Zhuowen, although he had caused quite a stir at the time, it was a pity that he was absent from the Heavenly Marquis Battle for no reason, causing many people to suspect that he was absent out of fear. However, after half a month, Zhuowen and his deeds had almost been forgotten in the Imperial Capital.

This martial world was cruel. Only the deeds of the victors would be remembered and praised. As for the losers, no matter how sensational their deeds were, they would be forgotten with the passage of time.

And now, Zhuowen was such a living example. The cultivators on the streets were basically talking about the First Prince, Zhuowen. As for Zhuowen, no one mentioned him.

Huangfu Wudao stood on the palanquin with his hands behind his back, looking high and mighty, his eyes full of arrogance.

He naturally noticed the respectful gazes of the surrounding cultivators, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily curled into a smile. He enjoyed the feeling of being supported by countless people.

Mixed in with the numerous martial artists, Zhuo Wen naturally noticed the arrogant gaze of Huangfu Wudao, and his heart was filled with a sneer.

At the same time, he had also clearly heard the discussions in the crowd, causing his heart to become even colder. He, Zhuo Wen, had only disappeared for a little over a month, yet no one had mentioned him. It seemed that this had something to do with the imperial family sealing off some information.

After all, when Zhuo Wen challenged Huangfu Wudao, he had almost defeated Huangfu Wudao. This matter was extremely sensational in the Imperial City, but now it seemed that no one had mentioned this matter. Obviously, the Imperial Family had sealed off this news.

Therefore, most people in the imperial capital only knew that Zhuowen was afraid to be absent during the Heavenly Marquis Battle, which allowed Huangfu Wudao to smoothly obtain the position of Heavenly Marquis.

"The First Prince is indeed powerful!

However, Zhuowen is not weak either. Back then, Zhuowen forced the First Prince into an extremely miserable state. If not for Emperor Qing's interference, I'm afraid the outcome of the battle would have been in Zhuowen's favor. "

Suddenly, a rather crisp voice rang out. A young and vigorous youth, with a flushed face, curled his lips and refuted the surrounding people.

"Sigh!

How could a child like you possibly know about these things?

The First Prince is so powerful, so how could he be forced into a miserable state by Zhuowen?

If you don't know, then don't speak nonsense. "

"It's unlikely that Zhuowen can contend with the First Prince. In the entire Qing Xuan Empire, the First Prince is the strongest of the younger generation. Although Zhuowen is powerful, he should be below the First Prince."

Many cultivators in the surroundings pointed at the youth, their words containing a lot of criticism, thinking that the youth was talking nonsense.

"Humph!

I was around the square in front of the throne room at that time, and I saw it with my own eyes!

Although the First Prince is powerful, Zhuowen is not weak either. In any case, I feel that Zhuowen is very strong, "the youth said stubbornly with a red face.

Whoosh!

The sound of the air being torn apart sounded. Huangfu Wudao, who was originally standing on the palanquin, had unknowingly arrived in front of the youth. He stared coldly at the youth and said in a cold voice, "Do you mean to say that I'm inferior to Zhuowen?"

Huangfu Wudao's appearance immediately intimidated many cultivators in the surroundings. Moreover, these cultivators continuously retreated, not daring to get too close to the youth.

Huangfu Wudao's cruel and tyrannical reputation was well-known in the entire Imperial Capital. If one did not go according to his wishes in the slightest, the outcome would not be very good.

The youth's entire body trembled, and his lips trembled. He did not expect that Huangfu Wudao would actually come down personally, and his heart was slightly flustered.

"I'm asking you a question.

Why aren't you speaking? "

Huangfu Wudao smiled coldly. His right hand lifted the youth's lapel, and he lifted him off the ground. The youth's legs were dangling in the air, and he was completely at a loss.

"First Prince, please calm down!

My son was just speaking nonsense, please don't take offense! "

When Huangfu Wudao mentioned the youth, a middle-aged man in a blue robe hurriedly walked out from the crowd and knelt before Huangfu Wudao to plead for the youth.

"Hmph!

It's the father's fault for not teaching his son well. You deserve death for raising such an unfilial son! "

Huangfu Wudao grunted coldly, and then he suddenly kicked out, directly kicking the middle-aged man in a blue robe in the chest, and terrifying Origin Energy poured out.

The middle-aged man grunted in pain as his entire body was kicked flying by Huangfu Wudao, and he was dragged on the ground for a few tens of meters before finally colliding with a stone pillar at the side of the street. Only then did his figure stop moving, and his eyes were opened wide with rage as he actually lost all signs of life.

Huangfu Wudao had actually kicked the youth's father to death with a single kick!

The surrounding people were silent like cicadas in winter, and they silently stared at the dead middle-aged man, yet not a single person spoke a word of justice. Instead, all of them lowered their heads and did not dare look into Huangfu Wudao's eyes.

"Father!"

The youth exclaimed in surprise, and his eyes instantly became moist. He never imagined that Huangfu Wudao would actually be so overbearing and kill his father with a single move.

"I'll ask you one more time. Do you think I'm inferior to Zhuowen?" Huangfu Wudao pinched the youth as he asked coldly.

The youth laughed bitterly instead, and he stared resentfully at Huangfu Wudao as he shouted furiously. "Right!

You're indeed inferior to Zhuowen. "

"If it wasn't for His Majesty Emperor Qing being partial and postponing the battle for three days, then you would have lost without a doubt if you'd continued the battle at that time!

Your position of Heavenly Marquis is unworthy of its name, and Zhuowen is stronger than you! "

As soon as the youth spoke these words, the surrounding people sighed in their hearts. This youth is dead for sure. He actually dared to talk back to Huangfu Wudao like this.

"Good, good, good!

You actually have such courage at such a young age. Then I'll send you to see your father right away! "

Huangfu Wudao was so furious that he started laughing instead. He was just about to kill the youth when a blood red light flashed out from the crowd and flashed directly towards Huangfu Wudao.

"Hmm?"

Huangfu Wudao grunted coldly, and then he decisively let go of the youth. With a wave of his right hand, countless blades of air condensed, and his right hand transformed into a transparent blade that fiercely slashed at the blood red light.

Thud! Thud!

Thud! What shocked Huangfu Wudao was that the power contained within the blood red light was extremely terrifying. It was as if he was facing a towering mountain at this moment, and the pressure on his hands was so great that he couldn't help but take a few steps back.

As they watched Huangfu Wudao retreat, the surroundings fell silent. Then they saw that the thing that forced Huangfu Wudao to retreat was actually a strange blood red spear. At this moment, the blood red spear was upside down in front of everyone, and its surface was suffused with a bloody aura.

The youth also got up at this moment, and a trace of brilliance flashed in his eyes as he looked at the blood red spear in front of him!

"Who is it?"

Huangfu Wudao's gaze was gloomy as he stabilized his body and stared fixedly ahead. The owner of this blood red spear was definitely not ordinary. The pressure that it gave him just now was extremely great, like the might of the heavens.

Everyone followed Huangfu Wudao's gaze and looked ahead. They were all curious as to who had used this blood red spear.

Thud! Thud!

Thud! Clear and melodious footsteps sounded out, and a figure that was tall and straight like a pine tree silently walked out from the crowd. The person that appeared before everyone was a white-clothed youth with a sharp gaze. His entire body was spotless, and he looked extremely clean.

Everyone was stunned once again when they saw this youth. It wasn't because of the youth's appearance or temperament, but because this youth merely looked to be in his early twenties, and was even slightly younger than Huangfu Wudao.

But the blood red spear that he'd used just now had actually forced Huangfu Wudao to take a few steps back, and this was extremely rare amongst cultivators of the same age.

"Who are you?"

Huangfu Wudao's gaze was gloomy. He hadn't expected that the person who'd made a move would actually be this youth that looked even younger than him, and there was a trace of shock in his heart.

He, Huangfu Wudao, prided himself as the number one person in the younger generation. Besides the already dead Zhuowen, there really wasn't anyone in the younger generation who could threaten him. But this youth that was slightly younger than him actually gave him a rather strong feeling of threat.

"I've heard that the First Prince, Huangfu Wudao, is the number one person in the younger generation of the Qing Xuan Empire. Furthermore, you've even obtained the position of Heavenly Marquis, the highest honor in the Empire!

Today, I'm untalented, but I'd like to see what kind of trash the First Prince, the number one genius, is. "

Zhuowen didn't directly answer Huangfu Wudao's question, and instead continued to speak as he pleased.

Hua!

As soon as these words were spoken, the surrounding crowd burst into an uproar. They hadn't expected that this mysterious youth who'd suddenly appeared would actually want to challenge the First Prince, Huangfu Wudao, in front of everyone's eyes. How bold of him!

Huangfu Wudao's eyes narrowed slightly. This person actually dared to challenge him as soon as he arrived, and this made him faintly feel that something was wrong. In addition to the trace of terrifying pressure he'd felt from the blood red spear earlier, he began to hesitate.

"What?

As the First Prince of the Imperial Family, you actually don't dare to accept the challenge?

Then your title as the number one expert in the younger generation of the Qing Xuan Empire doesn't live up to the name!

It's just as that youth said. "Zhuowen sneered.

Hearing this, the surrounding crowd also looked at Huangfu Wudao with puzzlement on their faces. Huangfu Wudao's hesitant attitude indeed made them somewhat puzzled.

"Humph!

Why wouldn't I dare?

Since you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish. "

As he spoke, Huangfu Wudao stomped his foot, and countless air blades swirled in the air as they swept straight towards Zhuowen. When he arrived above Zhuowen, he stretched out his right hand, and countless air blades turned into a hurricane that enveloped Zhuowen's head.

Huangfu Wudao's progress wasn't slow, and he was actually already at the advanced stage of the Xuanzun Realm. His talent was indeed not weak, but the current Zhuowen was no longer the same as before, and he was completely unafraid of Huangfu Wudao.

On the contrary, the one who should be afraid was Huangfu Wudao.
