Chapter 121 – Trouble (1/2)

The Tomb of Emperor Zhou wasn’t within the imperial palace, and it was beneath it instead. After all of them entered the entrance of the imperial palace, it wasn’t a luxurious imperial palace that appeared within their fields of vision, and it was an expanse of flat ground instead. The others seemed to be aware of this scene since the beginning. They didn’t stop at all or feel any surprise, and they didn’t slow down at all before running towards the nearby pitch black entrance on the ground.

When she noticed Yang Ye’s surprise, Qin Xiyue explained. “My Grand Qin Empire’s ancestor had fought Emperor Zhou here all those years ago. Can you imagine how terrifying a battle between two Monarch Realm experts would be? So, the imperial palace was reduced to ruins before their battle.”

Yang Ye was visibly moved when he heard this, and he thought in his heart. This is the strength of the Monarch Realm? If I had the strength of a Monarch Realm expert as well, then would I have to fear the Flower Palace?

After a short moment, Yang Ye took a deep breath, and he stopped thinking about such unrealistic things. He tightened his grip on the sword in his hand before walking towards the entrance.

He only wanted to do two things now. The first was to establish a power that could help him, and the second was to work hard on improving his strength so that he could fight his way into the Ascension Rankings and obtain the Ascension Token!

What he had to at this moment was to obtain some gains from within the Tomb of Emperor Zhou, and it would be best if he could get some top-grade Energy Stones!

Of course, it would be even better if he had the opportunity to kill the Flower Palace’s Su Xiaoxiao!

“It’s those two people that humiliated our Flower Palace earlier?” Not too far away, a woman that wore palace closed gazed at Yang Ye and Qin Xiyue’s backs as she asked Su Xiaoxiao who stood by her side.

“Senior Sister, it was them!” Su Xiaoxiao spoke in a respectful tone.

The woman glanced at Su Xiaoxiao and said, “Xiaoxiao, your strength and natural talent are extremely good. If you’re willing to place your attention on cultivating, then your accomplishments in the future will definitely not be bad. Besides that, even though our Flower Palace doesn’t prohibit its disciples from engaging in ‘mutual cultivation’, but you have to pay attention to your reputation. Moreover, don’t think that you’re smart. You’re using Gong Yuan, yet you fail to realize that he’s using you as well!”

Su Xiaoxiao’s figure shook, and she hurriedly said, “Xiaoxiao understands!”

The woman nodded, and then she looked at the entrance and said in a cold voice, “No matter what, since they dared to humiliate our Flower Palace, then they must pay the price for their actions. Even if they’re princes and princesses of the Grand Qin Empire!”

Su Xiaoxiao was delighted when she heard this. Because this senior sister of hers was furious, and if this senior sister of hers was furious, then Yang Ye and Qin Xiyue would definitely suffer!

After the woman in palace clothes walked through the entrance with Su Xiaoxiao, the nearby Xu Yan said to Gong Yuan who stood by his side, “Keep your distance from that Su Xiaoxiao in the future. That woman’s cultivation technique is a Mutual Cultivation Technique. Even though I know that you definitely have a way to deal with it, it’s best to not come into contact with her. The Flower Palace isn’t that simple. Besides that, it’s best if you keep a lower profile when you do things in the future. Even though our Origin School isn’t afraid of anyone or any power, there’s no need to act arrogantly and make enemies everywhere!”

Gong Yuan’s heart shook. He knew that this senior brother of his was slightly displeased because he’d offended a King Realm expert for the sake of a woman. He immediately bowed and said, “Gong Yuan will remember Senior Brother’s words!”

Xu Yan nodded. Suddenly, he turned around and looked at the entrance to the imperial palace. He said, “Dong Wushang, since you’ve come, then why don’t you show yourself? Could it be that you want to launch a surprise attack against me?”

“Haha….” Along with a wave of roaring laughter, a tall and robust young man suddenly appeared at the entrance. The young man was around 20 plus years old. He wore a long robe that was a mix of blue and white, and a pitch black sword was carried on his back at an angle.

This man called Dong Wushang arrived before Xu Yan before he said with a smile, “I never expected that I would be noticed by Brother Xu in the end! Looks like after not seeing each other for a year, Brother Xu’s strength had improved a great deal again. How about we look for an opportunity to have a spar?”

Xu Yan smiled and said, “I never expected that the Sword Sect sent Brother Dong over. Oh, right. According to my knowledge, the Ghost Sect’s Ghostarm has already entered the Tomb of Emperor Zhou. If Brother Dong doesn’t want those three disciples of your Sword Sect to perish, then it’s best that you hurry up. Otherwise, only three corpses will remain!”

Dong Wushang’s expression changed when he heard this, and then he said in a low voice, “Brother Xu, this time, your Origin School won’t interfere in the matters between my Sword Sect and the Ghost Sect right?”

“What do you think?” Xu Yan smiled, and then fell silent before he led the four others behind him towards the entrance to the tomb.

After a long time, Dong Wushang took a deep breath and walked towards the entrance of the tomb.
