44 The Bloody Royal Feast I (2/2)

”Upon meeting the Crown prince his highness, why are you still not on your knees?” A middle-aged man with a cold gaze stared at Ling Chen and Fang Lan as he berated. Anger clouded his features; as the sound of his voice faded, a long sword appeared in his hands as he slashed it towards Fang Lan.

From his point of view, Fang Lan was probably a low-level commoner of the Fire Crow Kingdom that recently got accepted into the Heavenly Demon Sect as an outer disciple, and came rushing back to flunk his power in front of the Royal Family.

He had met countless people like that over the years. As soon as they made it to Heavenly Demon Sect, they came back from their respective country to show off.

As Fang Lan disguised his aura as a Martial Master, the man thought that he was just a recently accepted outer disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect.

Seeing the incoming attack, Fang Lan didn't even move from his position or released his true aura. He just stood there and raised his hand in order to block the attack.

”Overestimating yourself.” The middle-aged man coldly snorted, glaring at Fang Lan as he continued to slash his sword forward.

Using bare hands to block a spiritual weapon was simply courting death. Who does he think he is, a Martial King realm warrior!

Even the crown prince was astonished at this sight, so it was needless to say about the rest of the guards. Other Martial Master would run before such an attack, let alone trying to block it with their bare hands.

While everyone was expecting to see the cocky youngster's hand be tattered with blood or maybe even his body would be slashed into two.

However, something unbelievable happened. The young man easily caught the sword as though it was just a piece of wood.

The middle-aged man was completely aghast as his expression greatly changed, however before he could figure out what happened.

Om—” A clear and crisp sound rang and his sword was suddenly caught in a fire.

The black flame quickly flowed through the sword before engulfing the middle-aged man's body like a flood from the horizon raging forward.

”Ah…” the middle-aged man suddenly bellowed a pitiful scream as his body was suddenly caught on fire out of nowhere.

The black flame, as powerful as a raging inferno, suddenly burned the man's entire body. He couldn't help but coarsely scream out: ”No…”

In the blink of an eye, his entire body was incinerated and fell to the floor, completely scorched.

After the man was burnt to death, the powerful black flame on his body slowly disappeared just like flames that finished burning a piece of paper.

Witnessing this scene not to mention the Crown prince, everyone was scared out of their wits. The middle-aged man was a powerful warrior of the Martial Ancestor realm, yet not only the young man caught his strong sword attack with his bare hands, he even burnt him to death.

How powerful was that young man!

At this moment, they realized that the young man wasn't some newly accepted outer disciple that came to show off his power but the real deal.

”I am really sorry about my subordinate's action. I am sure that both of you must have traveled a long distance to arrive here today. Also, there must be a good reason for you two lords to want to see my father the king. So why not share the reason with me as my father is currently in the middle of a meeting in the Royal Court.” Said the Crown prince with a slight smile on his face as he stepped forward in order to stop his men from making any unnecessary moves. He could clearly tell that none of his men was a match for Fang Lan.

”You are the Crown prince of this kingdom?” suddenly asked Ling Chen who has been silent the whole time.

”Yes.” Answered the Crown prince though he didn't know who that youth was.

At this moment, He just wanted to know what was the true identity of these two unwelcomed guests in the Heavenly Demon Sect. They even actually killed a royal guard as though he was a mere dog while the sect forbade any disciple to meddle in the affair of the secular world.

”Ling Chen, the third son of the Heavenly Demon Venerable.” A voice transmitted into his mind. The smiling face of the Crown prince instantly changed as he suddenly felt a chill ran down his spine.

However, he was stunned only for an instant, and recovered swiftly as he stated, gesturing to a path behind him, ”Please.”

After which, he stepped aside, his actions causing the guards by the side to feel extremely puzzled. Why was the crown prince so polite?

Ling Chen and Fang Lan didn't hesitate as well and directly went straight ahead. After the two of them passed him, the crown prince transmitted his voice to the rest of the guards, ”Lockdown the entire Royal Palace. Do not allow anyone to enter or exit.”

After that, he arranged for some of the guards to remain here, while some followed behind him.
