Chapter 1430: Zhao Xingye’s Stance

He glowered at Lin Xun, Ning Meng and Ye Xiaoqi. The second prince was kind enough to treat Li Duxings injuries, but I cant believe you guys are so despicable and cold-blooded. This is an unforgivable crime!

Outside the main hall, many empire experts were shocked and bewildered. They could clearly hear the angry bellows and roars inside, and they were horrified by what they heard.

Did Lin Xun actually kill the second prince, Zhao Jinglin?

Thats too crazy!

In particular, Seventh Prince Zhao Jingfengs eyes were bulging wide and his body quivering. That guy actually killed my second elder brother?

The princes of the imperial family enjoyed an extremely respected status in the empire. They might not be as strong as some cultivators, but their identity alone was enough to make others treat them with respect.

But Lin Xun not only slapped Zhao Jingfeng twice, but also killed Second Prince Zhao Jinglin!

What are you doing there? Hurry up and execute that violent criminal! Zhao Jingfeng roared in fury.

The other experts faces grew overcast, and just when they were about to take action, they heard a cold voice.

Stay there! The voice boomed out like a thunderclap, sending everyone trembling.

A breathtakingly beautiful woman with a black cloak draped over her appeared in midair. Her graceful and slender figure moved through the air with incredible speed.

Bloodthirsty Queen Zhao Xingye!

Everyone cast respectful gazes her way.

They all vividly remembered that, more than ten years ago in the Blood Kill Battlefield, Bloodthirsty Queen Zhao Xingye, under the protection of a group of influential figures, overcame the saint tribulation and became a real Saint!

In the past ten years, it was also precisely because of Zhao Xingyes presence that the empire camp was able to compete with the other two major forces, the Magi Brutes and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races.

Aunt, youre finally back. That Lin Xun killed my second elder brother, you must make him take responsibility and face the consequences. You must not spare that criminal! Zhao Jingfeng made a huge fuss, looking indignant.

Zhao Xingye swept a glance over him and only uttered the word shameful before striding into the hall, leaving him standing there dumbfounded.

Everyone else breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that Her Highness Zhao Xingye had come, the matter would definitely be resolved. If Lin Xun indeed did something wrong, he would be punished.

At that moment, Ning Meng was raging in the hall, Unforgivable crime? I cant believe you have the nerve to say that! If we hadnt arrived in time, Li Duxing would have been killed by him!

Qin Feiyus face was sullen. Stop trying to twist the story. Lets see what you have to say when Her Highness Zhao Xingye comes back! Let me warn you, the second prince is dead, and you should get ready to be punished!

Ignorant! Lin Xun did not bother to explain to them.

Qin Feiyus eyes shot wide open, and he pointed at himself in the nose. Youre a murderous criminal, how dare you call me ignorant?!

You are indeed ignorant.

The person who spoke this time was not Lin Xun, but Zhao Xingye who just walked into the hall. As soon as she arrived, she became the center of attention.

However, Qin Feiyu looked very aggrieved and flabbergasted. Why...why did Her Highness Zhao Xingye say that?

Did she not know that Second Prince Zhao Jinglin has been murdered?

Just as he opened his mouth to say something, Zhao Xingye cut him off, Go out, all of you, I have to ask Lin Xun something.

Naturally, Ning Meng and Ye Xiaoqi had no objection. They gave a cupped fist salute and left.

Qin Feiyu and the others stood still, dumbstruck, vaguely feeling that something was wrong, but when they met Zhao Xingyes icy gaze, they shuddered and dared not utter a word. They quickly left with pent up feelings of anger and shock.

The room was left with only Zhao Xingye, Lin Xun and Li Duxing, who was still unconscious on the bed.

I just came back; I did not expect something like this to happen, Zhao Xingye sighed.

Her long, sleek black hair was drawn up in a tight bun, revealing her slender swan-like neck. Her lips were plump and rosy-red, and her eyes were big and bright. She had a beautiful high-bridged nose and a pair of dark shapely brows. Her facial features were all perfect.

But if looked closely, one would find all sorts of frightening visions surging in her charming eyes, seemingly capable of swallowing and tearing apart peoples souls.

Before this, Lin Xun already knew that Zhao Xingye was extremely terrifying, but now that they met again, he still felt she was of an unreachable lofty height despite him already reaching the eighth longevity tribulation stage.

It made him realize that Zhao Xingye had become a True Saint!

If she was only at the ninth longevity tribulation stage, then she would not be able to take charge of the empire camp nor would her presence make him feel a sense of suffocating pressure.

I did not kill him, stated Lin Xun.

I know. Zhao Xingye glanced at Lin Xun. The reason I went out was to investigate the reason for Li Duxings injury. Do you know what I found?

Please tell me. Lin Xun said.

The person who seriously injured Li Duxing was most likely a master of the Darkness Tribe of the Magi Brute Camp. They used a secret art that paralyzes and corrodes the spirit, Zhao Xingye stated. This secret art is not particularly powerful, but it can make someone lose consciousness for a period of time.

Is it not the doing of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races? Lin Xun asked in puzzlement.

Did you also realize that something is wrong?

Zhao Xingyes eyes shone with a terrifyingly cold light. This can only indicate that the other two camps have reached some kind of agreement in secret, or perhaps they have already formed an alliance with each other.

The second prince was turned into a Servant of Nightmare by the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races, and Li Duxing suffered life-threatening injuries from the Magi Brute camp. Then, under the guise of treating Li Duxings injury, the second prince attempted to control Li Duxings mind and turn him also into a Servant of Nightmare... Lin Xun murmured, It does seem like the two camps are working together.

Therefore, our empires situation...is likely to become more and more difficult in the future. Zhao Xingye sighed. I cant change this. I can only rely on you youngsters to compete and fight among yourself.

Lin Xun understood her meaning.

A Saint cultivator watched over each of the three major camps, restraining one another. No one would act rashly unless it was a situation of life and death.

If Zhao Xingye recklessly launched an attack on the enemy because of the murder of the second prince and the attack on Li Duxing, then the empire camp would have to face the consequences.

Lin Xun couldnt help sighing, It seems like the empire camps situation is worse than I thought.

Zhao Xingye suddenly chuckled, Fortunately, you have come. Before the emperor and the others left more than ten years ago, they said that you would definitely come one day.

Lin Xun was taken aback for a moment, then he smiled wryly. Senior, are you not thinking too highly of me?

Zhao Xingye snorted, If you cant resolve this trouble then why are you talking about going to Mulberry Woodland? Or perhaps you dont want to do your part for the empire?

I

Lin Xun was about to say something when Zhao Xingye interrupted him, pointing to Li Duxing on the bed. Hes your friend, and hes being targeted and now hes badly wounded. Are you really going to just sit back and watch?

But

Theres no but. Zhao Xingye interrupted him again, and a captivating smile came to her breathtakingly stunning face. The second prince has met with disaster. You dont want to be treated as the murderer, do you? Her husky voice oozed with sultriness.

But Lin Xun broke out in a cold sweat and said with a wry smile, I didnt say that I wouldnt help.

Zhao Xingye sighed faintly, Do you feel like Ive put you on the spot? Thats because you dont understand how unhappy and frustrated I am. The great empire is being stepped all over by bastards from the Magi Brute Race and from the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races. That feelingis so infuriating.

Immediately, her tone changed, and she said with a hint of melancholy, If you really dont want to then I also wont force you. Everyone has their own ambitions, and I cant force it.

A feeling of unease swept over Lin Xun, and then he immediately promised, Senior, dont worry, I will definitely not sit back and watch!

Zhao Xingye stretched out her slender hand and clapped Lin Xun on the shoulder, saying in a pleased tone of voice, Not only would you not sit back and watch, but you should also show the impressive power of our empire. It would be great if you could wipe out all the bastards from those two camps!

At the end of the sentence, her voice was fierce and resolute, which made Lin Xun realize that she was indeed suppressing a ball of fire in her heart.

The fact that a Saint was so angry was enough to indicate how badly the empire camp had performed in the past years

In two years, the contest on Dao Observation Mountain will happen once again. When it does, we and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Races will each select ten disciples to participate in the contest. You will also take part then, said Zhao Xingye. Our empire has rarely won in the previous Dao Observation Mountain contests. Every failure has signified the loss of some of the strongest and most outstanding experts. I hope you can change the trend.

Alright, Lin Xun agreed, although he also couldnt refuse.

Whether it was to avenge Li Duxing or to fight for the empire, he could not refuse.

Zhao Xingye stared at Lin Xun with a smile, as though she was looking at a rare treasure, her eyes glimmering with hope and expectations. Alright, as long as you win beautifully, I will personally send you off to Mulberry Woodland when the time comes. As for Li Duxing, I will take care of his injuries.

Hearing her promises, Lin Xun felt relieved.

On this day, Lin Xun arrived at Yuncang Mountain, slapped Seventh Prince Zhao Jingfeng and uncovered the fact that second prince Zhao Jinglin had become a Servant of Nightmare, causing an uproar and commotion among the people.

But what made everyones jaws drop was that the leader of the empire camp, Her Highness Zhao Xingye, personally arranged a grand banquet for Lin Xun to welcome him.

This made everyone realize that Lin Xun held an important position in Her Highness Zhao Xingyes heart, far higher than they had thought!

As for Qin Feiyu and the others, they all looked glum and depressed. They knew that they must not get into conflict with Ning Meng, Ye Xiaoqi, and the others like they did before.

This was not only because Second Prince Zhao Jinglin, the ringleader of their group, was dead, but most importantly...

Lin Xun had come!

He alone could oppress them to the point of suffocation.

Did they not see that even Seventh Prince Zhao Jingfeng had failed to withstand two slaps from Lin Xun?
