Eastern Palace.
Zhao Yin was kneeling in front of the First Prince.
“Reporting to your highness, Chen Yun of the Heavenly Cloud City has failed. All the soldiers and experts who were assassinated were killed by them!” Zhao Yin said.
The first prince looked at Zhao Yin and frowned before relaxing.
He had a faint smile on his lips as if he was neither surprised nor shocked by all of this.
It was as if he had long known that things would develop like this.
The First Prince, Ji Xuan, said indifferently, “Heavenly Cloud City, at the end of the day, it was just to test the strength of this Ye Chen. I didn’t expect him to be able to kill Ye Chen.”
“If that good brother of mine can’t even deal with these people, then he doesn’t have the qualifications to compete with me for the throne. Calm down, our war has just begun.”
Then, he turned to Zhao Yin and asked, “Then, test out the strength of this Ye Chen’s side?”
At this time, Zhao Yin hurriedly cupped his hands and said, “Reporting to Your Highness, test it out.”
“There are two Transcending Tribulation Realm experts by Ye Chen’s side and a number of Deva Realm experts.”
“Only two Transcending Tribulation Realm experts?” At this time, Ji Xuan was somewhat surprised.
“That’s right,” Zhao Yin replied.
“Who are those two Transcending Tribulation Realm experts? They aren’t even a match for Elder Mei and the rest?” Ji Xuan was a little surprised.
He originally thought that Ye Chen was able to defeat Elder Mei and the rest because he had many Transcending Tribulation Realm experts by his side. But now, it seemed that the two Transcending Tribulation Realm experts by Ye Chen’s side were definitely not ordinary people.
Zhao Yin hurriedly said, “Elder Jian Ling of the Immortal Sword Sect and Grandmaster Jing Kong of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple!”
As soon as he said this, Ji Xuan’s expression changed.
He had heard of the reputation of these two experts who had transcended their tribulations.
Elder Jian Ling was a very powerful elder of the Immortal Sword Sect. Although he could not compare to Elder Jian Xu, he was not on the same level as those miscellaneous experts who had transcended their tribulations.
Grandmaster Jing Kong was the same.
Apart from the most powerful ones, they were almost invincible in the Transcending Tribulation Realm.
Moreover, both of them had reached the late-stage of the Transcending Tribulation Realm.
“So it’s these two old guys. I knew that Elder Mei and the others aren’t too weak. They can’t even deal with two Transcending Tribulation Realm masters.”
“However, it seems like Ye Qingfeng has invested a lot. Even though he can’t come himself, he sent these two old guys to protect Ye Chen. It’s a little out of my expectations,” Ji Xuan continued.
“Your Highness, what should we do?” Yin Zhao asked.
Ji Xuan Thought for a moment and said, “Hehe…even if Ye Qingfeng comes personally, Ye Chen will definitely die, not to mention just two Transcending Tribulation Realm old trash.”
“However, I have to thank the Heavenly Demon Sect’s Ye Gu Cheng. If it wasn’t for him restraining Ye Qingfeng, we wouldn’t have such a good opportunity.”
“Fragrant Ink City isn’t our home ground, so we’ll hold back for now and wait for them to pass through the Fragrant Ink City.”
Zhao Yin hurriedly bowed and said, “Yes!”
Ji Xuan sat down with his legs crossed and poured a cup of tea. He drank the tea with great interest and said, “Zhao Yin, you’re really good at talking about the Ye family.”
“The Sect Master of the Heavenly Demon Sect is called Ye Gu Cheng, and the Chief of the Righteous Alliance is called Ye Qingfeng. If the throne is also seized by Ye Chen, then the whole world of the human clan will belong to the Ye family.”
Zhao Yin hurriedly said, “It’s just a coincidence. Otherwise, why would Ye Gu Cheng declare war on Ye Qingfeng?”
“Hahaha…Ye Chen, I want you to know that if you fight with me for something, you will be doomed forever!” Ji Xuan said coldly.

Imperial Palace.
Liu Xi also brought back news to the Emperor.
The Emperor kept coughing, and his body was getting weaker and weaker.
“How is it? Ye Chen, he…?”
At this moment, Liu XI hurriedly said, “There is news that His Highness has turned a corner in Heavenly Cloud City. He will be arriving at Fragrant Ink City soon.”
At this moment, the Emperor’s face looked a little better.
“It seems that this kid still knows his own limits and knows how to find a few people to protect him. Fragrant Ink City is the city that General Zhang Mo is guarding. Once we arrive at Fragrant Ink City, there won’t be any danger,” the Emperor said lightly.
“Your Majesty, you’ve already sent out General Yang Xuan to personally fetch His Highness. Fragrant Ink City is also General Zhang Mo’s territory. According to this speed, General Yang Xuan might have to reach Snow Rain City before he can fetch his highness. Therefore, His Highness still has to pass through a dangerous place — Heavenly South City!” Liu Xi said.
“Heavenly South City?” The Emperor was a little shocked. “Isn’t Heavenly South City…”
“That’s right. Heavenly South City is the city guarded by Empress Sima’s father, which is also Prince Ji Xuan’s external company, Ma Tianchi!” Liu Xi reminded.
“At that time, I’m afraid that the most dangerous time for the prince is when he’s in Heavenly South City,” Liu Xi said.
“Ahem…” The Emperor coughed a few times and muttered, “I’m afraid that Ji Xuan, that kid, will make his move in the Heavenly South City.”
Liu Xi nodded and said, “I’m afraid so!”
At this time, the Emperor frowned and hurriedly asked, “Is there a way to break the situation?”
