Chapter 1551: Chapter 1552: Calamities Come and Go
Princess Lin An, born into the Royal Family, inherently possessed an uncommon dignity, which now, in her state of furious rage, exerted such oppressive force that it was suffocating.
None had anticipated Lin An’s arrival, and Du Nie, having just reached the scene, stood rooted to the spot, clearly unwilling to believe everything before his eyes.
How could this be possible?
Wasn’t Lin An supposed to be within the imperial city?
How could His Majesty the Emperor ever allow Princess Lin An to appear here?
This shouldn’t be happening; even if a Land Immortal took action, it shouldn’t be Lin An showing up at this place, right?
The minds of everyone present were overwhelmed by immense doubts; their expressions showed not only hesitation but also a sense they were in too deep to easily extricate themselves.
Among them, the members of the Ancient Clan who had gathered here solely because of Mo Ningchen’s information were now beginning to doubt the accuracy of that intelligence.
Could it be that the Capital City wasn’t truly indifferent to the situation, and that this assassination attempt was actually a trap set for those who intended to target Su Chengyu?
After all, they had now identified the man in black as Mo Ningchen, and those who were unaware of the grudges between him and Su Chengyu knew only that Mo Ningchen and Su Chengyu both hailed from the Demon Slayer Department.
The thought of retreat started to emerge in the minds of everyone present.
"Princess Lin An, by defying the will of heaven and your master to come here, are you not afraid of incurring His Majesty’s wrath?"
Mo Ningchen, sensing the odd atmosphere among the crowd, stepped forward to speak.
He couldn’t let these people disperse at this moment. If Lin An’s appearance caused everyone to scatter like monkeys, then the first to suffer would surely be him, Mo Ningchen.
"And what about you, forming cliques and even colluding with the Demonic Path to target your colleagues? Are you not afraid that Yang Chengyin will slap you to death?"
"I..."
Mo Ningchen was about to blurt out that it was Yang Chengyin who had ordered him to do so, but ultimately, he swallowed his words.
Without exposing Yang Chengyin, he still had a hope of being saved. Once he revealed this, he would certainly be discarded as a pawn by Yang Chengyin.
After all, as far as Mo Ningchen understood, The Honored One of the Sect would definitely not implicate himself in such a grave matter as collusion with the Demonic Path.
"Your Highness, don’t slander me."
Mo Ningchen, who quickly regained his composure, spoke softly, then looked around candidly, adding quietly, "I admit to having a grudge with Su Chengyu and that I’ve targeted a colleague, but colluding with the Demonic Path..."
"Shut your mouth! Do you think I am blind? Do you think all the people of the Capital City are fools to be deceived by you? Mo Ningchen, you think too highly of yourself!"
With a single reprimanding sentence, Lin An cut off Mo Ningchen’s words. Then, raising her hand, a Liuli Divine Sword swept horizontally toward the man beside him who bore a sword.
The crescent-shaped blade seemed ordinary yet held an unstoppable momentum as it directly struck towards the sword-bearing man. Just when Mo Ningchen, still hesitating about whether to intervene, Du Nie’s voice suddenly rang out from the side.
"It’s an Immortal Artifact, the Tianhong Shenguang Sword!"
The Tianhong Shenguang Sword, a low-grade Immortal Artifact, was not the only such weapon in the Royal Family, but it was the only one acquired by the Xia Nation Royal Family in the past few decades.
This Immortal Artifact, which had been lost in the Mortal World for a hundred years, was eventually located by the founding emperor of Xia Country after expending a great amount of manpower and resources and was then added to the Royal Family’s treasury.
Though only a low-grade Immortal Artifact, in Xia Country, where there are only twelve known Immortal Artifacts between heaven and earth, it remained a Divine Weapon almost unequalled!
Mo Ningchen’s pupils contracted, and in a moment of shock, he realized it was all too late.
The moment of hesitation just now had made it impossible for Mo Ningchen to fully defend against Lin An’s sword strike.
If the sword-bearing man wished to survive this strike, he would have to reveal the truth about being a member of the Demonic Path.
However, feeling the oncoming Sword Momentum, the sword-bearing man’s expression turned cold, and he uttered softly, "Seeking death."
Boom!
The surging demonic qi erupted, enveloping the sword-bearing man on all sides, and behind him who originally seemed like a human figure, six pairs of arms suddenly appeared again.
This abnormal form was clearly the stance of the Demonic Path.
Each of the eight arms held a weapon, confronting the oncoming sword momentum head-on with a direct collision!
Boom!
The immense shock shattered the crescent sword momentum of the Tianhong Sword, and then the figure leapt toward Lin An.
Su Chengyu was his primary target this time, but he also understood the kind of threat this girl called Lin An represented to the Demonic Path.
"First, I kill you, then I kill Su Chengyu; the rewards of this visit to the Capital City are indeed not small."
Without any more concealment, the full power of a Peak of the Hollow Void erupted forth.
The speed of his approach left Mo Ningchen dumbfounded in place; he never imagined that even at this point, the sword-bearing man was still concealing his true strength.
However, this sudden turn of events also made Mo Ningchen breathe a sigh of relief.
With the presence of the sword-bearing man from the Peak of the Hollow Void, forcibly assassinating Su Chengyu was no longer a fool’s dream.
After all, although Lin An’s arrival was fierce, it was clear from her aura that she hadn’t entered the Hollow Vacuum, just like him, and therefore, no matter what, she couldn’t possibly match up to someone from the Peak of the Hollow Void.
Yet, Lin An showed no panic whatsoever in the face of all this, speaking coldly: "Senior Brother."
"I am here."
Xu Zijing’s figure appeared at Lin An’s side, and the moment his gaze crossed with Mo Ningchen’s, Mo Ningchen’s heart went ice-cold.
However, the chief of the Saint Envoys didn’t bother with Mo Ningchen, simply saying to Lin An, "Indeed, it is the Demonic Path, so you may make your move."
"Even without it, I would have made my move."
Lin An spoke indifferently, knowing that Xu Zijing was the last line of defense his master left by his side. If there was no interference from the Demonic Path, Xu Zijing would absolutely not permit Lin An to meddle in this assassination, and saving Su Chengyu just now had already pushed Xu Zijing to his limit.
But now the situation was different. Lin An glanced at the person from the Demonic Path and whispered, "Senior Brother, can you handle this guy on your own?"
Xu Zijing responded with a smile: "What a joke, it’s just the Peak of the Hollow Void, he’s not Long Xuan."
In Xu Zijing’s eyes, without the Peak of the Hollow Void, no one who had ascended to immortality in a single bound from Earth was worthy of his notice.
"That settles it, you just need to deal with this guy, I know master does not allow for interference with others."
Xu Zijing slightly turned and was somewhat surprised by Lin An’s consideration because he knew all too well that Lin An, who had not yet entered the Hollow Vacuum, couldn’t possibly face everyone here alone.
This was something even Su Chengyu, in his Pseudo Realm state, hadn’t managed to do.
"Then just enter the Hollow Vacuum!"
As if seeing through Xu Zijing’s thoughts, Lin An shouted out loud, his sword pointing to the heavens and earth.
"Let the tribulation come!"
In an instant, the winds rose and the clouds surged as heavenly thunder swiftly gathered.
Yet upon seeing this, Xu Zijing slightly frowned; undergoing tribulation on the spot was definitely not good, and he did not believe that these people would care about Lin An’s status and not dare to make a move.
Before he could speak out, Lin An’s sword thrust straight into the skies, instantly disappearing into the sea of clouds!
"Break the tribulation!"
