Chapter 796: Chapter 585: Princess Consort Zhang Yun Truly Has Ingenious Strategies_2

Zhang Li’s face drastically changed, he quickly shouted loudly at the crowd and looked at Zhang Siyuan with extremely cold eyes, this Zhang Siyuan truly has deep schemes, knowing the Seventh Family Elder has a fiery temper and supports Princess Consort Zhang Yun, he deliberately used provocative words to enrage and provoke him into striking to kill, leading to the fury of the collateral branch.

As a result, the collateral branch would be confirmed in their crime of rebellion, defying the Family Head, and even revealing their killing intent, which in the Zhang Family, is a capital offense!

And it’s a collective capital offense!

"Hehe, under the lead of the Second Family Elder, my Zhang Family’s people indeed all have feelings and righteousness; on the grand hall of the Zhang Family, to be so filled with righteous indignation, truly a fortune for our Zhang Family!"

Zhang Li, how could he not hear the hidden meaning behind Zhang Siyuan’s words, he quickly strode forward, standing at the front, cupping his fists in salute.

"Zhang Li has failed in his discipline, willing to accept punishment!"

"Hand over the Qilin Seal of the Zhang Family, the collateral branch, to completely withdraw from the main hall, all affairs of the Zhang Family, no matter how big or small, must be approved with the Qilin Seal in order to be executed!"

Zhang Li clenched his teeth, his entire body starting to tremble, the Qilin Seal is a symbol of the Zhang Family’s power, once handed over, there would be no possibility of retaking it in the future.

But after all, Zhang Siyuan is from the direct line, with the power of the Qilin Bloodline fully awakened, within the Zhang Family, no one could match him.

Even if both are at the celestial Immortal Peak Realm, Zhang Li also knew he was no match, after all, the concentration of his bloodline was too thin, far inferior to the direct line of Zhang Siyuan.

Back when Princess Consort Zhang Yun was at the height of her power, it was because of this that Zhang Li was able to seize control of the Qilin Seal. So even though Zhang Siyuan holds the position of Family Head, he had no real power.

But what Zhang Li did not expect the most was that Zhang Siyuan’s realm could be so terrifying. From the strike earlier, thunderously executing the Seventh Family Elder, Zhang Li could sense that his cultivation level was not merely at the celestial Immortal Peak Realm, but probably already had half a foot in the Saint Realm.

Although this Square World is lacking in Spiritual Power, insufficient to accommodate too many at the Saint Realm, there are two types of people who can transcend the restrictions of heaven and earth.

One kind are those with family bloodline inheritance, such as the historical and long-standing aristocratic families like the Jinshi Zhang Family and the Li Family of the Great Tang, within the family ancestral lands, they can inherit the Bloodline Power of their ancestors and break through the limitations.

Of course, this requires the bloodline concentration to reach a certain extent, and the bloodline must be awakened.

The second kind is to undergo an Enlightening Baptism, forcibly infusing one’s entire cultivation into another’s body, thereby breaking through the realm.

But this Technique is extremely rare, and few people possess it because those who perform this Technique will die after losing all their Spiritual Power!

Zhang Siyuan naturally belongs to the first kind, having fully awakened the Qilin Bloodline in the ancestral land, inheriting the Bloodline Power of the Zhang Family ancestors, breaking through the limitations.

However, the Saint Realm is, after all, the ceiling of this world. Even with such inheritance, it’s very difficult to reach in a short period of time.

"The Qilin Seal was originally the token of the Family Head, now that it has returned to its rightful owner, naturally, it’s for the best!"

Zhang Li pondered for a moment and still made up his mind to hand over the Qilin Seal. Apart from Zhang Siyuan, there was one other person in the direct line at the celestial Immortal Peak.

Punishment Hall Master, Third Clans Elder Zhang Jiang!

Zhang Siyuan took the Qilin Seal and put it into his pouch. Just then, a low shout suddenly came from outside the hall.

"Wait a moment!"

Upon hearing this voice, Zhang Siyuan’s expression changed, his brows furrowed deeply, and he couldn’t help but look towards Uncle Fu, who was meditating with closed eyes, as if he heard nothing.

Uncle Fu seemed to have sensed something too, slowly opening his eyes, within them, two sharp glooms penetrated the Void.

In an instant, the temperature in the entire hall dropped.

"The matter of the Qilin Seal is of great importance, by the order of the Princess Consort, may Master Zhang Siyuan reconsider!"

Within the hall, a Maid stepped in, she claims to be the Princess Consort’s maid, but she is also of the Zhang Family, grew up with Zhang Yun since childhood, always guarding by her side, never leaving her.

"There’s no need for reconsideration in this matter, the Qilin Seal is rightfully only to be held by the Zhang Family Head. Princess Consort Zhang Yun has married into the Royal Palace, the affairs of the Zhang Family are none of her concern!"

Zhang Siyuan’s attitude was resolute, the Qilin Seal in his hand, it was absolutely impossible to let it go again, even at the risk of a battle.

Seemingly aware of what Zhang Siyuan would say, the Maid Zhang Yue smiled at the corner of her mouth, not minding his response, and continued to speak.

"The Princess Consort asks that you please be generous, she is willing to recognize you as her younger brother!"

"Hehe, my sister indeed has good tactics, with just a few words, she expects to resolve the grudge of past years?"

"The Princess Consort is very sincere!"

Zhang Yue spoke the words, yet her hands gently clapped together. Following the applauds, four figures suddenly appeared in the courtyard outside the hall.

Each figure was garbed in white robes, three men and one woman, with an identical emblem on the upper left corner of their attire.

Seven Stars!

The strongest military force in Ice Cold City, the trademark of the commanders of the Ice-breaking Wolf Riders.

There were seven Great Commanders in the Ice-breaking Wolf Riders, named after the Seven Stars, and now, four had come to the Zhang Family.

Celestial Secret, Tian Quan, Opening Yang, and Yao Guang.

Zhang Siyuan didn’t understand at first, but the moment he saw Uncle Fu, he had an epiphany. It seemed that Prince Wang Siyun was helping him to stabilize his family’s internal strife ostensibly, but in fact, he wanted to see how many people Princess Consort had nurtured for the Great Heir Wang Hao over the years!

In theory, the Seven Stars took orders only from Wang Siyun, and without a command, they were not allowed to leave the army at will, but now it seemed that these four were the confidantes cultivated by Princess Consort to increase the bargaining chips for the Great Heir Wang Hao to inherit Prince’s position.

"Military forces should not interfere with the affairs of the aristocratic families, that’s the rule of the Great Tang Dynasty. What is it, Generals, are you planning to break the law knowingly?"

Having made up his mind, Zhang Siyuan was fearless and questioned in a cold voice.

"I want to know the current attitude of Master Zhang!"

Zhang Yue was unimpressed. Ice Cold City belonged to the Guardian Sun King Wang Siyun, even the Prefect of Hantian City, the foremost in the Northern Territories, refrained from interfering in the affairs of Ice Cold City, let alone the Capital City, which turned a blind eye and a deaf ear.

Here, Wang Siyun was the law, but it was well-known that he never cared about these matters, which resulted in Princess Consort Zhang Yun holding great power.

"This threat is useless against me. Even if the Ice-breaking Wolf Riders are right outside my Zhang Family’s gates, they can’t frighten me, Zhang Siyuan. Though the military’s Great Formation is invincible and unmatched, killing you few would be no difficult task!"

"It seems Master Zhang continues to be willfully blind; then don’t blame Princess Consort for being heartless!"

Zhang Yue saw Zhang Siyuan’s determination and no longer tried to dissuade him. Although Zhang Siyuan was unmatched, outside there was an army tens of thousands strong, and with a single order, they could flatten the Zhang Family!

"Ice-breaking Wolf Riders, heed my order and withdraw completely. Celestial Secret, Tian Quan, Opening Yang, Yao Guang, you four commanders are dismissed. For now, you will fall under the command of Great Commander Tian Shu. Tian Xuan, coordinate the purge. Any who harbor second thoughts, execute them!"

"Tian Shu obeys!"

"Tian Xuan obeys!"

Uncle Fu’s figure floated in the void, holding a blue Token in his hand, crystal clear, and presented it before the Ice-breaking Wolf Riders.

"Ice-breaking Order!"

The Maid Zhang Yue’s complexion changed drastically, as the token held by Uncle Fu was incredibly prestigious, the sole token for Wang Siyun to command the Ice-breaking Wolf Riders!

Above the Ice-breaking Token, the soul blood and aura of all Ice-breaking Wolf Riders were imprinted, which could decide the life and death of every one of them in a mere thought.

Of course, the Seven Stars Commanders were not subject to the constraints of the Ice-breaking Order; each of them was directly appointed by Wang Siyun.

Under the guidance of the two Great Commanders, Tian Xuan and Tian Shu, the Ice-breaking Wolf Riders instantly left the Zhang Family. After handing over the Ice-breaking Token to Tian Xuan, Uncle Fu’s figure slowly descended.

"Are you four going to see Prince of your own accord to admit your guilt, or should I take you there?"

Uncle Fu gave the four people of Tian Quan a cold look, his voice icy, and Zhang Yue snorted coldly, not expecting the situation to change so dramatically.

In a moment, when everything seemed under control, it was reversed in the blink of an eye.

"Li Fu, you dare to meddle in Princess Consort’s affairs?"

"The Prince has no interest in dealing with these messy issues, so this old servant had to take care of them. Moreover, the Prince may care about kinship, but I do not!"

"You’re nothing but a dog raised by Wang Siyun, a demon given the Wang surname, and you actually think you’re human?"

Zhang Yue formed seals with her hands, and her aura suddenly soared to the Peak of the Celestial Immortal, as a roar burst forth from within her body, shaking the Ninth Heaven.

"Qilin Roar!"

A murderous aura exploded in Zhang Siyuan’s eyes. No wonder he couldn’t Breakthrough to the Saint Realm even after fully awakening the Qilin Bloodline inherited from his ancestors; it turns out that half of his Fate had been plundered by Zhang Yue!

Princess Consort Zhang Yun indeed has Tongtian tactics!
