“You’re right, but I’m afraid that it won’t be that easy. Hundreds of major powers would come together in the Golden Horizon. Each major power will be united. Father and Master Yang Zanqing have emphasized on this. If we attack Jiang Chen and King Fan in the Golden Horizon, a lot of people may witness it. I don’t think I can afford to take the blame when father finds out about this,” The Crown Prince said.

Although he didn’t have a subtle mind like King Ping, he absolutely wasn’t a fool. He knew about the degree of seriousness of King Ping’s plan. After all, the expedition in the Golden Horizon wasn’t just about the competition among the geniuses of Great Qian Empire, but also amongst countless of major powers of the three great Immortal Domains. Therefore, the higher ups of every major power would require the disciples to stay united when they were inside, otherwise they would most probably be devoured by other major powers in an instant.

Such unity was also an honour. Those who didn’t value unity would be doomed to face serious consequences. If King Ping and Crown Prince killed Jiang Chen and King Fan, not only would they be punished by the Emperor, they would also be disdained by the disciples who joined the expedition. From then on, their reputation would surely stink. Neither King Ping nor Crown Prince would be able to bear such responsibility.

“I’ve figured it out. Naturally, we won’t do it by ourselves. Only fools will do that.”

King Ping smiled and continued, “Don’t you forget that Jiang Chen has killed the two brothers, Fu Wei and Fu Tian, and the people of Yellow Spring Sect. Fu Tian and Fu Wei were both disciples of Yin Corpse Sect and Divine Line Sect, respectively. You should know very well what the most important thing is for a great sect. It’s face. Jiang Chen has killed their people, which is equivalent to slapping their face. For sects like Yin Corpse Sect and Yellow Spring Sect, they have sinister style of conduct and are ruthless towards their enemies. If it wasn’t for the protection of King Fan and Jiang Chen entering Genius Prefecture, do you think those three great sects will let Jiang Chen go? Therefore, we can use them to help us get rid of Jiang Chen and King Fan.”

King Ping smiled evilly. In terms of cunningness, not even two Crown Princes would be able to match one King Ping. He had always worked out a good plan. Just like the plan he was proposing right now.

“That’s a good idea. Do you have any specific steps for that?” The Crown Prince asked.

“Let’s start from here…”

At the back of the garden, the two old enemies had chatted secretly for two hours. No one knew what they were talking about, or that King Ping had come, because no one would think that these two enemies would work together. This was truly an unprecedented thing.

Not much time was left before the opening of the Golden Horizon. There were only six days left. In these six days of time, every genius in Genius Prefecture was ready, especially those who received the identity brocade bag. Each of them seemed pretty excited and thrilled. To them, this represented recognition.

“It isn’t easy to get the identity brocade bag. I will certainly cherish this opportunity. If I’m able to obtain some benefits in the expedition, my cultivation base is going to improve once more. At that time, I will surely soar to the top!”

“Don’t get overly excited about it. The Golden Horizon is an ancient battlefield. Plenty of strange creatures have been born over the years. It’s a very scary place that was full of death. Besides, there are also geniuses from the three Immortal Domains. The number of people are just too many. There’s going to be killings and battles everywhere. It will be good enough if you can stay alive.”

“Are you scared? If you are scared, then don’t go. There are still many people who want to go. You can give up your identity brocade bag and see if other people will fight for it. The three Immortal Domains contained countless major powers and various geniuses. This is a grand meeting of geniuses, but is also limited to a certain number. How exciting it is to be able to take part in this grand event and compete with the geniuses of the whole Immortal World. Even if I die, it will still be worth it. The Dao of cultivation has always been a path that defies the heavens, just like how one sails against the current. If you don’t go, others will go and may have the chance to surpass you. At that time, you are only going to be the stepping stone of another person. To be a truly superior expert, you will have to experience various situations of life-and-death. Understand? If you are scared, stay here and be a normal person.”

“Who wants to be a normal person? Who said that I’m scared? I didn’t mean that. Besides, this is a rare opportunity that I can’t afford to miss.”

…………….

Everyone in Genius Prefecture was discussing about the Golden Horizon. Although they knew that it was a dangerous expedition and might cost them their lives, no one backed down. A hundred quota of people was far from being enough for these arrogant young men.

Geniuses had their own pride and was unwilling to stay ordinary. They had great hopes and dreams for their future. So they had regarded this dangerous event as a huge chance to improve themselves.

Over the next few days, some of the disciples who didn’t get the identity brocade bags began finding those who had and begged them to bring them along. Without the identity brocade bag, they would face numerous difficulties. For example, if the person obtains a treasure, he would have no other things to carry it except using his hands. In that case, it would make him a clear target and would be hunted by the others.

Nevertheless, most of them didn’t care about that. They just wanted to enter the Golden Horizon. Even if there was only a slim chance, they still wouldn’t want to let it go.

Time passed very quickly. In the early morning of the next day, the sound of the battle drum of Genius Prefecture reverberated. Above the ancient tower suspended in the sky was a huge square. Currently, there were at least two hundred people standing on the square. All of them were geniuses of Genius Prefecture. The lowest cultivation base among them was at the late Immortal King realm. Each of their face was filled with excitement. Today was the day of the opening of the Golden Horizon. They knew that they were going to step into the true journey once the passageway to Golden Horizon had been opened from here.
