Chapter 274 - The Emperor Star Is Inauspicious
Chapter 274: The Emperor Star Is Inauspicious
In the Great Xia Dynasty Palace.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was seated in the main hall when an elder appeared.
When he saw the old man, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty tensed up.
This old man was none other than the hall master of the Heavenly Secret Hall of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Heavenly Secret Hall of the Great Xia Dynasty was extremely special, and the old man in front of him could be considered second only to the emperor.
Usually, if there was any situation in the Heavenly Secret Platform, they would send someone to inform the emperor, but the fact that the hall master had come personally today meant that the matter was extremely serious.
‘Could it be because of Changyu, the Ziwei Emperor Star?’
The emperor hurriedly asked, “Hall Master, did something happen to the Ziwei Emperor Star!?!”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty looked at the master of the Heavenly Secret Hall.
The latter nodded.
In an instant, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty felt like he was struck by lightning and his expression changed so drastically that he almost fell out of his chair.
‘If something happened to the Ziwei Emperor Star, does that mean that Changyu has already…’
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s heart was full of countless emotions.
“Your Majesty, what’s the matter with you?”
Upon sight of the emperor’s appearance, the Heavenly Secret Hall felt puzzled and asked worriedly.
“What’s wrong with the Ziwei Emperor Star?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked in a shaky voice.
“I just saw the light of the Ziwei Emperor Star through the star map.”
The Hall Master said.
‘The Ziwei Emperor Star was emitting a light?’
‘The Ziwei Emperor Star hasn’t fallen yet and is even glowing?’
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was dumbfounded to hear those words as he thought that he had heard wrongly.
‘What’s going on?’
“Did you say that the Ziwei Emperor Star is glowing?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty asked in disbelief.
“Yes.”
The Heavenly Secret Hall master nodded, finding it even more strange.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty immediately perked up and got really agitated.
He was extremely riled up.
The fact that the Ziwei Emperor Star was still glowing meant that Su Changyu was not only alright, but he was better than ever.
‘Did the previous array formation disorder give Changyu an opportunity instead of harming him?’
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty thought to himself with great excitement.
‘Great, great.’
‘No wonder he’s my son. He’s Heaven’s chosen one.’
“Apart from the Ziwei Emperor Star, there should be other matters.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty was overjoyed, but he remained calm on the surface.
Although it was a major thing that the Ziwei Emperor Star was glowing brightly, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty knew that the master of the Heavenly Secret Hall must have come for something else too.
“After the Ziwei Emperor Star emitted a brilliant ray of light, it broke away from the Emperor Stars of the five dynasties.”
“At the same time, something went wrong with the Emperor Star of the Great Xia Dynasty, and… an inauspicious Qi was born.”
The master of the Heavenly Secret Hall said.
That was the reason he was there.
The Emperor Star of the Great Xia Dynasty concerned the entire dynasty, and now that the inauspicious Qi was born, it represented an inauspicious sign.
“There is an ominous Qi from the Emperor Star of the Great Xia Dynasty.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s expression changed.
The Emperor Star of the Great Xia Dynasty got more and more dim and that was the reason he wanted to abdicate the throne.
He didn’t expect there to suddenly be ominous Qi coming from the Emperor Star of the Great Xia Dynasty.
The Emperor Star of the Great Xia Dynasty did not refer to him but the Crown Prince.
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty immediately thought of Xia Qian.
At this juncture, he did only one thing and that was to throw Xia Qian into prison.
However, that should not be enough to cause inauspicious Qi.
‘What’s going on?’
For some reason, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty thought of how terrifyingly calm Xia Qian was during their previous confrontation.
“Where does this inauspicious Qi come from?”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty continued to ask.
“I can’t deduce it so I came forth to report to Your Majesty.”
“I wish to inform the other three halls and gather the power of the four halls to forcefully deduce this inauspicious Qi.”
The master of the Heavenly Secret Hall said.
There were a total of four Heavenly Secret Halls in the Great Xia Dynasty which were in the East, the West, the North, and the South respectively. They usually predicted the matters of the Great Xia Dynasty and rarely gathered.
Now that something had happened and he was unable to deduce it, it was indeed very scary.
“Okay, gather the four halls immediately and deduce the inauspicious Qi.”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty said in a deep voice.
He also attached great importance to this matter.
At this moment, a figure slowly appeared above the Great Xia Dynasty palace.
The figure was none other than Su Changyu.
The moment Su Changyu appeared above the palace, there was a layer of invisible force that enveloped him.
Flying was prohibited in the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty, let alone the palace.
Flying above the palace of the Great Xia Dynasty was extremely disrespectful and it would trigger the array formation restrictions before the palace guards even had to intervene.
Hence, the moment Su Changyu appeared, the restriction was triggered.
However, the power of the array formation, which was enough to blast a Nascent Soul realm cultivator away and was hard for an Essence Soul realm powerhouse to resist, had no effect on Su Changyu at all.
“Who are you? How dare you barge into the Great Xia Dynasty Palace!?!”
The palace guards couldn’t help but yell.
However, the moment the palace guards looked up into the sky and saw Su Changyu, they were stunned.
They seemed to have been distracted.
‘Immortal!’
He was extraordinary, both in appearance and in aura. When they first saw him, they felt that he was like an immortal who landed in the mortal world.
They were not the only ones. Many cultivators in the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty also sensed the movement.
All the cultivators were shocked that someone dared to blatantly and forcefully break into the imperial palace.
It was too brazen of him.
When they looked and saw Su Changyu, they were all lost in thought.
‘How could there be such a handsome and extraordinary man in the world?’
He was dressed in green and his hair was white like snow. His features were extraordinary and he was just like an immortal who landed in the mortal world.
His presence alone would make heaven and earth dim.
‘So handsome! So handsome! So handsome!’
Everyone was extremely stunned at this moment.
“Is he an immortal?”
Someone asked.
“This must be an immortal!”
“Are immortals really this extraordinary?”
“Yes, I don’t believe every immortal is this handsome.”
“I never thought there would be such a handsome man in the world, I won’t marry anyone other than you in this life!”
“I’ve traveled all over the five dynasties and I’ve never seen anyone more handsome than me. But I feel so unworthy compared to him.”
“The royals of the Great Xia Dynasty must have done something to spur him to barge into the palace.”
“Yes!”
Countless cultivators murmured in astonishment.
“Your Excellency, what are you doing here in the Great Xia Dynasty palace?”
The leader of the royal guards snapped back to his senses and immediately raised his hand to tell the guards not to act rashly.
Su Changyu was too extraordinary.
He was just like an immortal and the fact that the restriction array formation of the palace did not work on him was even more terrifying.
Hence, the leader of the royal guards was full of respect.
Su Changyu did not answer and entered the palace.
In an instant, layers of formation barriers appeared, blocking his advance. They were the defensive restrictions of the palace.
Bang!
The barriers all exploded.
Boom!
In an instant, the palace’s array formation restrictions trembled and shattered.
He inhaled sharply.
He inhaled sharply.
He inhaled sharply.
Watching the restrictions shatter and the array patterns dim, all the imperial guards were stunned.
The other cultivators were shocked too.
It was just too shocking.
These were the array formation restrictions of the palace of the Great Xia Dynasty that even those in the Mahayana realm could not break easily.
‘The means of an immortal!’
‘This person must be an immortal!’
“How brazen!”
“Who are you? How dare you barge into the Great Xia Dynasty palace!?!”
“Who is it that dares to be so rampant?”
In the next moment, everyone spoke up.
In the entire palace, many powerful auras appeared.
Su Changyu had broken the array formation of the Great Xia Dynasty Imperial Palace. How could he not anger the powerhouses of the palace?
At this moment, the colors of the world changed and with a gale, several powerhouses appeared in the void. There were a total of ten Tribulation Transcendence powerhouses.
They were staring at Su Changyu who was in front of them.
However, when all these people saw Su Changyu, they couldn’t help but be distracted.
“Your Excellency, what are you here at the Great Xia Dynasty for?”
A Tribulation Transcendence powerhouse immediately snapped back to his senses and said to Su Changyu.
If an ordinary person dared to break into the palace and do something as provocative as shatter the array formation restrictions, they would have attacked him right away.
However, after seeing Su Changyu’s looks, he felt that there should be a misunderstanding.
Su Changyu did not speak and instead looked at the prison of the palace before taking a step out and vanishing.
The powerhouses looked at each other in shock.
Just now, they couldn’t even stop Su Changyu.
‘A person with powerful means.’
‘When has there been such a powerhouse in this world?’
‘Is he an immortal?’
They didn’t think much about it and immediately chased after Su Changyu.
In the prison of the palace.
Xia Qian’s expression was calm and gloomy.
“What’s going on? Did Ye Ping not die?”
“How is this possible? Even if someone stopped the disorder in time, even a Nascent Soul realm cultivator would die. Ye Ping is only at the Golden Core realm, how could he not die?”
Xia Qian muttered to himself.
After such a long time, he neither felt the shift in the Ziwei Emperor Star nor the addition of the Emperor Star’s luck to his body.
In other words, Ye Ping did not die.
If Ye Ping did not die, his plan would have failed.
He had lost his bet.
At the thought of this, Xia Qian’s expression became menacing.
At this moment, a figure appeared in the prison, causing Xia Qian to be startled.
The figure in front of him made him feel somewhat familiar, and soon, he recognized it to be Su Changyu, Ye Ping’s Eldest Senior Brother.
For some reason, when he saw Su Changyu, he subconsciously felt a strong sense of disgust that arose from within.
‘How could he have appeared in the palace that’s heavily guarded with guards and restrictions? Ordinary people can’t enter at all.’
Moreover, Su Changyu and Ye Ping had stepped onto the array formation platform together.
Even if he did not die, it was impossible that nothing would happen to him.
Xia Qian was bewildered.
“Kneel down!”
Before Xia Qian could continue to think further, Su Changyu spoke out in an indifferent tone.
Bang!
Xia Qian felt that his whole body was out of control as he knelt directly in front of Su Changyu.
Su Changyu was holding Daoist Tai Hua’s corpse while standing in front of Xia Qian, looking at him indifferently.
In an instant, Xia Qian grimaced and stared at Su Changyu.
As the crown prince of the Great Xia Dynasty, he knelt in front of the other party.
He felt utterly humiliated.
In an instant, he saw the corpse that Su Changyu was holding in his hands.
In the hall of the Great Xia Dynasty.
“What? Did you say that Changyu has returned and forced his way into the palace to go to the dungeon!?!”
The emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty’s face was covered in disbelief.
He naturally sensed the movement of someone entering the palace previously, but the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty did not care much because he felt that someone would deal with it.
However, at this moment, someone reported to him that the person who broke into the palace was the same person that the emperor himself had brought into the palace a few days ago.
When the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty heard this news, he was filled with disbelief.
He had learned from the master of the Heavenly Secret Hall that the Ziwei Emperor Star had glowed brightly which proved that Su Changyu should have obtained some chance to metamorphose.
However, even so, he shouldn’t have been able to break into the palace directly.
He would have to be at the Tribulation Transcendence or the Mahayana realm to do so.
However, the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty didn’t think much about it because Su Changyu headed towards the dungeon.
Why would he do that? It was obviously because he was after Xia Qian!
Previously, Xia Qian had tampered with the array formation and resulted in a disorder that caused the void to collapse.
Just because Su Changyu was fine didn’t mean that Ye Ping was too.
Ye Ping was Su Changyu’s Junior Brother.
At the same time, a middle-aged man appeared outside the capital of the Great Xia Dynasty.
