Chapter 1204 Black Pot

Heaven and earth shook . The mist rolled out as the spatial channel in front of them gradually stabilized .

“The channel is ready . Quick, enter!” shouted Xia Yunfeng . Because the Four Nations Ancient Remnant was a broken world, the channel would only be stable for an extremely short amount of time . They only had a few breaths to enter before it closed .

Furthermore, once it closed, it would be impossible to enter again . Seven days later, when the channel once more opened, it would only allow people to leave .

Everyone rapidly charged through the channel . Less than a breath’s time after their figures vanished, the channel closed, forming a huge vortex in the air .

…

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM…!

Not long after Long Chen and the others entered the Four Nations Ancient Remnant, explosions rocked Grand Xia City at nine different points . The city shook, and countless people looked around in shock, not knowing what had happened . Panicked cries rang out .

“What happened?!”

“Are experts sneak attacking Grand Xia City?!”

Countless experts flew into the air . Chaos raged for a while .

“Don’t panic! It was nothing more than a little prank used to frighten people . There’s no danger . Everyone can get back to their business . ” Xia Yuyang’s voice resounded throughout Grand Xia City, calming people .

At the same time, news spread that people had detonated nine explosive talismans in nine places of the Grand Xia . It had caused a huge disturbance, but it didn’t cause any significant damage .

Whoever had detonated the talismans had been blown apart by the explosions, so there was no way to tell who had done it .

This happened very suddenly, causing quite a fuss . But things quickly calmed down . The Grand Xia’s imperial guards were investigating suspicious people .

But within the Grand Xia’s imperial palace, Xia Yuyang’s face was dark . Beside him, the white-haired elder’s expression was also grave .

“The dragon vein link has been severed . Yun-er and Chong-er, they’re all in danger . ” Xia Yuyang’s gaze was electric as terrifying killing intent rose within him .

Each of the four ancient nations possessed a dragon vein, with the four dragon veins looking like they were facing a dragon pearl . They maintained a subtle balance .

The dragon veins were condensations of their nations’ karmic luck . The emperor of a nation would take up sixty percent of that karmic luck .

The heirs of the emperor would take up thirty percent, while the remaining ten percent was evenly split amongst the commoners .

Xia Yuyang was emperor, and he controlled sixty percent of his nation’s karmic luck . That was why there was a dragon vein manifestation around him that Long Chen had sensed .

As for Xia Yunchong, Xia Yunfeng, and Xia Youluo, they were also supported by the dragon vein . Just like Xia Yuyang, they could use a portion of the dragon vein’s power to unleash great power .

However, after those nine explosions, the dragon vein karmic luck which was linked to Xia Youluo and the others had been severed from Xia Yuyang’s senses . That made his expression change .

Under normal circ.u.mstances, if any heirs died, their dragon vein karmic luck would return to the dragon vein, blessing the other heirs .

But this time, the connection to their dragon vein karmic luck had been completely severed . That signified great trouble . Someone had set their sights on the Grand Xia’s karmic luck .

If Xia Yunchong and the others were killed in this state, then thirty percent of the Grand Xia’s dragon vein karmic luck would forever disappear . That was completely unacceptable . If such a thing happened, the grand Xia would quickly decline until it completely collapsed .

“It seems they came prepared . But just who was so arrogant as to break the subtle balance between the four dragon veins? It’s unknown if it’s three dragons devouring one or one dragon devouring three,” said the white-haired elder .

For their enemies to dare to do such a thing meant they had been preparing for this for a long time . But understanding that now was too late .

Xia Yuyang darkly said, “Right now I can only wait for any changes . But if my beloved sons and daughters are all killed, I will definitely make them pay a terrifying price . ”

The white-haired elder sighed, “It seems your ruling skills still aren’t perfect . You’re already deciding things based on emotion . ”

Xia Yuyang bitterly smiled . “Although I treat them severely and heartlessly, that’s simply unavoidable . For the Grand Xia, my Xia family has paid far, far too much . If someone really was willing to take over the Grand Xia and could guarantee the Grand Xia’s peace and prosperity, I’d immediately welcome them and surrender the thone . I wish I could live a peaceful life, and I wish we could enjoy familial love like other families . These children are my reverse scale . If they really fall, there’s no way I’ll consider things from a ruler’s point of view . I will purely act as a father getting revenge for his children . ”

Terrifying killing intent rose in Xia Yuyang’s eyes . No father was willing to see his children mercilessly slaughtered by others .

“Perhaps this matter’s not as grave as you think . You’ve forgotten, Long Chen has also gone in . You’ve already planted the seed, and all that’s left is to patiently wait for it to bear fruit,” said the white-haired elder .
