4855 Cutting off Zhang Chen

He spat again. “If I knew that it was Prince Yan who wanted to buy this place, I wouldn’t have sold it to him. I’d rather destroy it!”

Then, Zhang Chen seemed to have thought of something. He turned around and glanced at the remaining nine Yan Immortals behind him. “Don’t tell anyone about selling to Prince Yan. If that person finds out, our entire Heavenly Region will be in trouble!”

“I will go back and talk to my father. Let’s see if we can get this Heavenly Region back.”

The middle-aged Yan Immortal hurriedly reminded him, “Young Master, you can’t. We can’t afford to offend that person, and neither can we offend the Young Emperor. As long as he is still the Young Emperor, we can’t confront him.”

Zhang Chen’s eyes flashed with anger, and he immediately turned around and gave him a heavy slap. “Damn it, are you the Young Master of the Celestial Region or am I? Since when can you guys refute the ideas I’ve made?”

The middle-aged Yan Immortal covered his cheek.

Only then did Zhang Chen stop. He fell into deep thought again. I was wondering where Chen Qing and the others got so many supreme-grade pills when they went to buy the Heavenly Region from my father. So it turns out that Prince Yan is the mastermind behind this.

“In that case, I must quickly inform the Second Prince so that he can make a decision.”

He narrowed his eyes and made a decision in his heart.

At this moment, a light sound like the morning bell and evening drum sounded without warning.

“Who do you want to inform?”

Zhang Chen’s eyes suddenly darkened, and he almost instantly circulated the Yan power in his body.

Then, several figures appeared in front of him.

The leader was the Young Emperor!

His pupils shrunk to the size of needles in an instant, and he broke out in a cold sweat that was far more than before.

Now that the Young Emperor had appeared, it was obvious that he had heard everything he had said.

However, Zhang Chen was still making his final struggle. “N-no one will be informed. Young Emperor, you must have heard wrong.”

The Young Emperor smiled, his eyes unreadable. “How could I have misheard? the Second Prince you mentioned should be Prince Jiu, right?”

Zhang Chen’s body trembled and he waved his hands repeatedly. “N-no, that’s definitely not the case. Our Celestial Region is very far away from Prince Jiu’s Great Mi Heaven. How could we possibly know Prince Jiu?”

“I’m also very curious. Your Celestial Region is the closest to my Six Heavens Realm, so why are you willing to have a connection with the distant Great Mi Heaven? And why are you Prince Jiu’s dog?” The Young Emperor walked forward slowly and said lightly.

Zhang Chen was forced to retreat step by step, cold sweat continuously flowing down his face.

“Young Emperor, this is definitely a misunderstanding. Our Celestial Region has never had any contact with the Great Mi Heaven, not even a letter!”

The Young Emperor asked three questions in a row, “Tell me, should I believe you or not? and how should I believe you?”

Zhang Chen was slightly happy in his heart. Since he said so, then there was still a chance for things to turn around.

“Young Emperor, don’t worry. The entire Celestial Region is only willing to follow you. When I return, I’ll definitely mobilize my father to form an alliance with the Six Heavens Realm, giving it eternal dominion. We’ll follow your lead.”

“You’re right, but how can I be sure that you’re telling the truth? What if you go back and still do things your own way?” The Young Emperor shrugged. “So, for safety’s sake, you’d better stay here and don’t go back!”

As his voice fell, Cheng Qing, who was ten feet tall behind him, smiled and slowly stepped forward.

Zhang Chen focused his mind and accumulated the derived force technique in his hand.

“Follow me and kill our way out!” he shouted suddenly, and the vast Yan power light beam shot directly at the Young Emperor.

However, a True Sword surrounded by Yan power directly shattered his attack.

Cheng Qing’s eyes were filled with killing intent. He raised his True Sword high and began to slash down.

At the same time, the four purple-robed Yan Immortals also moved, surrounding Zhang Chen and attacking him.

The nine Yan Immortals he brought could only defend themselves before Chen Qing’s charge broke their formation and they were defeated one by one.

These Yan Immortals had only recently become Yan Immortals, and their Immortal roots had only just stabilized. How could they be Chen Qing’s opponent, who was about to step into the Grand Yan Immortal realm?

In just a few charges, Zhang Chen only had two Yan Immortals left.

After destroying one of the Yan Immortals’ Immortal Source, Chen Qing smiled and walked towards him like a god of death.

Zhang Chen’s face was ashen. He had never thought that the Yan Immortals he had brought with him, who were almost all Elders of the Celestial Region, could not even last ten rounds against the Young Emperor.

He had nowhere to retreat, and the last middle-aged Yan Immortal beside him was shaking like a leaf. He could not even think.

Seeing this, Zhang Chen knelt down in the clouds. “Y-Young Emperor, please let me go. As long as I can go back, the entire Celestial Region will be yours.”

The Young Emperor walked up to him slowly with a soft sword in his hand.

“Stick out your tongue.”

Zhang Chen, who was begging for mercy, was stunned and subconsciously did as he was told.

Then, he felt a chill in his mouth, and divine blood spurted out. Half of his tongue had been cut off.

“There are some things that should be said and some that can’t be said. You humiliated me, but it doesn’t warrant the death penalty. So, I only need half of your tongue to give you a warning.”

Zhang Chen bowed repeatedly, his mouth mumbling.

“But you’ve provoked someone you shouldn’t have, and that’s enough to be fatal.”

As the Young Emperor spoke, he waved his hand, and a head was cut off, along with the broken Immortal Source.

His eyes, which had already turned gray, were filled with confusion. Even in his death, Zhang Chen did not know who he had offended.

Using his sword, he threw Zhang Chen’s head to Chen Qing. The Young Emperor said, “Give this head to Brother Jian and make him happy.”

“That’s right, you have to explain to him that Zhang Chen’s head was personally cut off by me.”

Cheng Qing chuckled and nodded, “I understand, Young Emperor. You’re trying to make Brother Jian happy.”

“Shut up,” the Young Emperor put away his soft sword and said. “Brother Jian is my brother. Humiliating him is humiliating me. I don’t care if Zhang Chen dies. If there’s another one like Zhang Chen, I’ll kill him as well.”

Cheng Qing nodded and said, “That’s right, Young Emperor. Zhang Chen is the only son of the Sect Master of the Celestial Region’s Heavenly Sect. If you kill him just like that, I’m afraid that the Celestial Region will send someone to question you.”

“They’re just a mere lackey of the Celestial Region. I think it’s only a matter of turning my hand to exterminate them. The reason why I’m keeping them still is because I’m feeling compassionate.”

“If they dare to send someone to inquire about Zhang Chen, it’ll be a good excuse. By then, I’ll definitely exterminate all the Heavenly Sects in the Celestial Region to deter those who want to follow Prince Jiu. I’ll let them understand who’s the Master.”
