As the aura emanating from King Yu continuously rose, his jet-black hair fluttered on its own. Surging waves of true energy was encircling his body and causing the falling snow to be easily dispersed.

The pores on Ji Chengxue's body all widened as he faced the intimidating aura emanating from King Yu. As a fifth grade Battle-King, he was somewhat helpless when facing King Yu who was already a sixth grade Battle-Emperor.

”Do you want to kill me?” Ji Chengxue calmly asked.

King Yu's gaze was cold and emotionless. There was not even the slightest change in his emotion as he expressionlessly looked at Ji Chengxue and said, ”I've already reminded you before. I told you not to participate in this mess, otherwise you would pay a price that you wouldn't be able to bear...

”It's your own fault for not listening.”

Ji Chengxue broke into a grin and took off his heavy cloak. A hint of malice appeared on his face that had always been gentle as well. This malice caused him to appear somewhat sinister.

”Ever since we were young, you've always been acting high and mighty. You've always felt as if you're superior than others, right? If you want a fight, then I'll give you one. In any case, we're bound to have a fight sooner or later,” Ji Chengxue said with a sneer.

True energy started to float around his body as well as he heavily stamped the ground with his foot, dispersing the snow that had accumulated on the ground.

”Among the three of us, my cultivation level is the highest. How are you going to fight against me?” King Yu broke into a smile and his body instantly charged forward.

Bang bang bang!

As the figures of the two interweaved in a chaotic fight, their clashes resulted in waves of true energy flooding out and affecting the surroundings. Within this freezing cold environment, they were actually having a passionate battle.

However, Ji Chengxue was only a fifth grade Battle-King and there was still a difference in his combat abilities compared to King Yu in the end. A mouthful of boiling bright red blood sprayed into the air as Ji Chengxue's figure continuously backed away and fiercely smashed into a wall, causing the entire wall to collapse.

King Yu coldly smiled as he gathered true energy onto his palm and said, ”Goodbye, my brother.”

King Yu's gaze was emotionless as he pushed his palm forward in the direction of Ji Chengxue who was lying within the debris. If this attack succeeded, King Yu was confident that Ji Chengxue would be dead without a doubt.

Ji Chengxue was staring at King Yu as a bitter smile appeared on his lips. Even though the saying goes that the royalty have no relatives, he never expected King Yu to be this ruthless.

However, just as King Yu was about to kill Ji Chengxue with the palm strike, an intimidating aura suddenly appeared and caused King Yu's entire body to stiffen. Due to the aura, the true energy gathered in his palm dissipated as well.

A figure approached them while stepping on thin air and stopped between King Yu and Ji Chengxue.

”Xiao Meng?! Are you planning to intervene?” King Yu's pupils constricted and his eyes were filled with incredulity as he stared at the interloper.

”Didn't Xiao Meng say that he wouldn't support any of the princes? Why did he appear at this very moment to save Ji Chengxue?” King Yu thought while feeling somewhat furious. He knew ever since Xiao Meng appeared that he would not be able to kill Ji Chengxue.

”I am only participating on a personal basis today.” Xiao Meng indifferently gave King Yu a glance and said, ”After all… I am his brother-in-law.”

”You...” King Yu was furious. He thought, ”What is this lousy excuse! If you want to rescue Ji Chengxue, then just say it! What's the point of playing a family love card!”

”Chengxue, leave now. I want to have a nice and long chat with King Yu,” Xiao Meng said.

Ji Chengxue got up from the ground and gave Xiao Meng a long and hard look as he wiped off the blood from the corner of his mouth. He did not understand why Xiao Meng would appear at this moment.

”Don't worry, your sister is recovering well,” Xiao Meng softly said with his back facing Ji Chengxue.

Ji Chengxue was slightly startled and then an ecstatic expression suddenly appeared on his face. Even the injuries on his body were feeling not as painful as before.

Xiao Meng's words revealed a certain information, that his elder sister had awakened from her coma. This might have been the reason why Xiao Meng chose to intervene.

Ji Chengxue was overjoyed as he let out a laugh. He turned around before dashing away and left this place.

King Yu took a step forward and was unable to accept his defeat as he watched Ji Chengxue's departure. However, as he moved, Xiao Meng's gaze landed on him and a heavy aura pressed down upon him, causing his heart to sink.

...

”Elder sister has awakened… that's great! Looks like the ingredients that Xiao Yue gave to Owner Bu has been successfully turned into an elixir cuisine. As expected of Owner Bu, how formidable!” Ji Chengxue thought. He was holding his chest in pain but feeling extremely delighted.
