Chapter 412: Shout, Shout!!!

Divine thunder bloomed from Lu Fusang's body, and streaks of golden electric light flickered across his sleeves.

He appeared just like that, calm, yet it was as if an incomparably powerful pressure was weighing down upon everyone's heads.

Number one under heaven!

Within Xiaoyang City, pairs of eyes looked toward Lu Fusang; there was anger, hostility, and also awe.

The Lu Clan once said that Lu Fusang would surpass Lu Xunyang.

Although there was an intent to suppress Lu Xunyang, on the other hand, there was also the reason that Lu Fusang himself was extremely powerful.

Zhu Lili, Shang Yunwu, Zhang Luobai, and other local prodigies of Qinzhou looked at Lu Fusang, feeling only as if a massive dark cloud was pressing down, making it hard to breathe.

They had made a name for themselves in Qinzhou and were the supreme prodigies belonging to Qinzhou.

But what hung above the head of the person walking over was the word "heaven."

A person invincible within the same realm.

A smile appeared at the corners of Lu Fusang's mouth; he was accustomed to the feeling of being admired and being feared.

Yet, at this very moment.

Honk, honk, honk!!!

Above the distant sky, the sound of warship sirens rang out.

Dozens of flying warships appeared, arranged in a phalanx to escort Lu Fusang, their momentum shaking the heavens.

Honk, honk, honk!!!

Following the sirens of the dozens of warships, surging radiance of life force overturned the sea of clouds in an instant, stirring up countless streaks of dazzling brilliance.

Someone recognized the affiliation of those warships and instantly cried out in astonishment.

"It's the Wushi City Military Guard, why are they escorting Lu Fusang?!"

"The Wushi City Military Guard belongs to our Qinzhou, how did they become subordinates of the Lu Clan?"

"Damn it, what are they trying to do? Is Lu Fusang from the Great Xia, or is Chen Yan from the Great Xia?!"

Sounds of anger resounded across the land; the residents of Xiaoyang were all berating them in dissatisfaction.

Previously, when Chen Yan gave his lecture, the Military Guards of Luo City, Yunmeng City, and Yixian City had all arrived, while the Wushi City and Huang City Military Guards had not.

But now, it would be one thing if the Huang City Military Guard hadn't come.

This Wushi City Military Guard was actually waving flags and shouting for Lu Fusang.

The Military Guards of the various cities in Qinzhou were all subordinates of the Divine General Xunyang back in the day.

Many commoners were furious, let alone the Military Guards themselves.

"When Chen Yan is appointed as General, I'm going to twist Ye Chen's head off!!!" Zong Heng's eyes were bloodshot.

This damn thing was losing his face, losing Lu Xunyang's face!

Tan Yishi and other high-ranking Military Guard officials also had extremely ugly expressions.

It would have been fine if the Wushi City Military Guard hadn't come, but they had actually ended up standing on Lu Fusang's side.

"Bear with it a little longer, once it's over, we'll deal with them all!"

Tan Yishi transmitted his voice.

"Screw bearing it!" Zong Heng roared.

The next moment.

"Ye Chen, get out here!!!"

Zong Heng bellowed, his military uniform flapping, blood energy surging, as he flew into the high sky like a blood beast, glaring at the dozens of flying warships coming toward Xiaoyang.

A middle-aged man also wearing a military uniform appeared; he looked at Zong Heng, a smile appearing at the corners of his mouth:

"Department Head Zong."

"Ye Chen, what are you trying to do?!" Zong Heng roared, looking at the middle-aged man in the military uniform before him.

This person was none other than Ye Chen, the Department Head of the Wushi City Military Guard.

Ye Chen's gaze flickered; he glanced at Lu Fusang behind him, and seeing that Lu Fusang's eyes were still as confident as ever, Ye Chen spoke:

"Lu Fusang is a distinguished guest of our Great Xia; I have dispatched the Wushi City Military Guard to escort him."

"Did I give the order?!" Zong Heng narrowed his eyes.

Ye Chen's expression was unpleasant:

"Department Head Zong, must I really spell it out for you?"

Ye Chen looked around, his gaze locking onto the Xiaoyang City Military Guard, and said:

"Previously, Zong Heng went against the wishes of the Xia Clan, and without a military order from the Xia Clan, had the three Military Guards of Yunmeng, Yixian, and Luo come to Xiaoyang, intending to incite internal chaos in Qinzhou!"

Ye Chen pointed at Zong Heng:

"Zong Heng, you are guilty!"

Ye Chen sneered; he also had no military order, but he had still sent troops to come and cheer for Lu Fusang.

The reason was too simple: now that the Xia Clan was to marry into the Lu Clan, and the Great Xia was to establish long-term diplomatic relations with Lu Province, his standing with Lu Fusang was following the trend.

And Zong Heng was going against the trend!

As for Chen Yan...

Some pure heart, some path of will, some second Lu Xunyang.

Lu Xunyang was nowhere to be found!

He might have been dead long ago!

What was the use of Chen Yan doing well?

The maneuvering of power never looks at what you have done, but rather at whether you have followed the trend!

A Fourth-Ranker dares to challenge the number one of the Fifth-Rank?

You're courting death!

Behind Ye Chen, the smile at the corners of Lu Fuxang's mouth was exuberant; their body even trembled slightly as if watching a good show.

So, this is the Xia Clan?

So this is the massive military foundation left behind by Lu Xunyang?

An outsider like him came and gained massive support without the slightest effort; if a war breaks out later, how long can the Xia Clan hold on?

Sure enough, what they say inside Lu Province is all true.

The current Xia Clan has long since become a patch of withered branches and fallen leaves.

A bunch of amateurs!

He wanted to laugh to the extreme, but he held it back.

Ye Chen narrowed his eyes; ignoring Zong Heng's increasingly gloomy face, he looked toward the Xiaoyang City Military Guard:

"The three of you from Yunmeng, Luo City, and Yixian City, I advise you: don't be led into the ditch by Zong Heng, withdraw your troops early!"

As his voice fell, Zong Heng's anger instantly surged to an unbearable degree.

It was also at this moment.

"Ye Chen, what kind of thing do you think you are!"

A low roar resounded as Liu Hua, the Deputy Minister of the Yunmeng City Military Guard, appeared and flew into the high sky.

Ye Chen's expression was ugly; is this Liu Hua going to walk this path to the end?

Are you blind?

"Liu Hua, withdraw; you are only at the Origin Realm," a light, airy voice sounded.

Yet, inside Xiaoyang City.

Suddenly, a mass of blood-colored clouds roared into the sky, and the Luo City Military Guard Minister struck like a blood sword, his killing intent surging to the heavens:

"Ye Chen, fight me to the death!"

Boom!

A terrifying murderous aura erupted.

The Luo City Military Guard Minister roared, his voice like ten thousand thunders surging:

"Fight!!!"

His voice fell.

The one hundred thousand Luo City troops outside Xiaoyang City roared in unison instantly.

"Fight!"

At this moment, even Zong Heng was shocked; is the Luo City Minister crazy?

Why is he so eager to start a war directly?

Luo Puxin and a group of Luo City Military Guard high-ranking officials appeared, standing behind the Luo City Military Guard Minister, each of them exploding with murderous intent, ready to kill in the next moment.

"Don't steal my spotlight later; I want to go first and blow up Ye Chen's head!"

The Luo City Military Guard Minister growled, his eyes surging with killing intent to the extreme.

Luo City is the strongest city in Qin Province besides Xiaoyang.

Therefore, the strength of the Luo City Military Guard Minister is at the Sixth Rank, the strongest among all city-level Military Guard Ministers.

This was all to guard against Luo Chen.

Luo Puxin gritted his teeth.

His own Minister now firmly believes that Lu Xunyang is in Xiaoyang.

Now that Ye Chen has appeared, his Minister clearly does not want to miss this opportunity to show off in front of the Divine General Xunyang.

He wants to explode!

Luo Puxin did not intend to tell the truth anymore; let it be whatever it will be.

That's fine.

At this moment, Ye Chen's pupils shrank in an instant, looking at the Luo City Minister in disbelief.

Is this person crazy?

You want to kill me?

You want to start a war?

Is it worth it?

But the Luo City Minister did not give Ye Chen a chance at all.

"Chen Yan is the disciple of Divine General Lu; Ye Chen, you paved the way for Chen Yan's enemy, you deserve to die!"

The Luo City Military Guard Minister roared:

"Kill!!!"

He shrieked, and in the next moment, he transformed into a streak of blood-colored light and killed toward Ye Chen.

Everyone was shocked; even Zong Heng did not expect this.

The Luo City Military Guard Minister is playing for real.

What the hell?!

It was also at this moment.

Hum!

A beam of azure divine light suddenly appeared in front of Ye Chen, and an aura powerful to the extreme instantly suppressed the Luo City Military Guard Minister.

The azure radiance condensed, transforming into a figure wearing red and blue battle armor.

"Cang Zhuo, do you want a civil war?"

"Do you think there is no one left in my Xia Clan?"

A deep and cold voice resounded, and countless people looked over.

The man wearing battle armor had black hair blowing in the wind, deep eyes, and his whole body exuded an irrepressible nobility and dominance.

"King Xiachen!!!"

Someone recognized the newcomer and was instantly shocked.

The Minister of the Military Guard of Luo City, named Cang Zhuo, was also startled and narrowed his eyes.

"King Xiachen, aren't you in Tie Province?" Zong Heng's expression turned ugly.

He had not expected, and no one had expected, that King Xiachen would actually stand on Lu Fusang's side.

Was he a fool?

Did he not know that Chen Yan had long been internally designated as a First-Rank General Star?

Zong Heng narrowed his eyes; once he thought of how King Xiachen had previously been transferred to Tie Province by the Sovereign, he understood in his heart.

This King Xiachen had long since lost power and simply did not know the internal resolutions of the Xia Clan.

But this was just too stupid.

As a King of the Xia Clan, to actually come and take sides with a Lu Province genius?

Zong Heng narrowed his eyes and sneered inwardly; he could almost imagine King Xiachen's future fate.

But his contemplation was seen as cowardice in the eyes of King Xiachen.

King Xiachen looked at the heavens and spoke indifferently:

"Lu Fusang of the Lu Clan is an honored guest of my Xia Clan; do not bring your own trashy affairs out into the open!"

He glared at the Minister of the Military Guard of Luo City:

"A mere city-level Military Guard Minister dares to incite a civil war in the Great Xia? When I return to Jin Province, I will impeach you!"

"And you, Zong Heng, have you truly forgotten your own surname?!"

His voice was cold, overflowing with pressure, as he shouted in a low tone:

"General Stars, hear my order: disarm these two!"

His voice resounded, carrying terrifying pressure, spreading out in an instant, intending to disarm Zong Heng and Cang Zhuo at this very moment.

Suddenly, all the citizens of Xiaoyang City were trembling with fear.

Everyone knew that they were here to protect Chen Yan.

Now that King Xiachen wanted to disarm these two, wasn't he just forcing Chen Yan to his death?

At this moment, the two hundred thousand Military Guards outside Xiaoyang City also had their expressions turn ugly.

The Xia Clan had arrived, and it was clear they intended to support Lu Fusang.

Then for them, the Military Guards who had come to protect Chen Yan, the future outcome would not be good.

High above in the sky.

Xi Congyun frowned as he watched this scene:

"Does the Xia Clan really intend to protect Lu Fusang as the First-Rank General Star?"

Xi Congyun's expression was ugly to the extreme.

His desire for that First-Rank General Star surpassed everyone else's, and at this moment, King Xiachen's attitude made his heart sink.

As for Chen Yan's life or death, he no longer cared.

"Fortunately!" Xi Congyun rejoiced:

"Fortunately, Chen Yan didn't agree to you; otherwise, if I were bound together with Chen Yan, I would definitely suffer."

As Xi Congyun spoke, he did not notice that beside him, Mu Zigui had kept her head lowered the entire time, and what appeared in her eyes was a deep sense of sorrow.

The next moment, Xi Congyun prepared to step out; after all, King Xiachen had ordered all General Stars to disarm Zong Heng and Cang Zhuo.

He was just about to make a move when he suddenly discovered his sleeve was being held by Mu Zigui.

"You..." Xi Congyun frowned slightly.

He had also noticed that ever since Mu Zigui came out from Chen Yan's side, she seemed like a different person.

"Don't go; the General Stars take orders from the Xia Clan, but it is definitely not the Xia Clan of King Xiachen," Mu Zigui said.

Xi Congyun frowned.

And it was at this moment.

King Xiachen also discovered that ever since he gave the order, those thousands of General Stars outside Xiaoyang had not moved at all.

This was awkward.

King Xiachen's expression became extremely ugly.

"Jidao Wu!!!"

King Xiachen roared in a low voice:

"Did you hear my words?!"

His voice was like the roar of a mad lion, shaking the clouds away and revealing a thousand miles of clear sky.

A streak of blood-red light flashed across the high sky, and the figure of Jidao Wu appeared.

At this moment, all the General Stars were looking at Jidao Wu.

Since the head of the Second-Rank General Stars had never appeared, Jidao Wu vaguely felt like the head of the General Stars.

After all, he was the one with the strongest strength on the surface.

As for Xi Congyun, he was much younger than Jidao Wu, and his strength was also a notch inferior.

Previously, most of the General Stars had not made a move, all because Jidao Wu had not spoken.

Jidao Wu looked at King Xiachen, and then said:

"The Great Xia Star Generals only obey the orders of the State Overseer and the First-Rank Star General!"

King Xiachen narrowed his eyes:

"The State Overseer is not here, and a First-Rank Star General has never been selected!"

Jidao Wu stood up straight:

"Then I obey no one's orders!"

As his voice fell, King Xiachen's expression turned ugly to the extreme in an instant, and he growled instantly:

"Are you trying to defy the orders of the Xia Clan?!"

He erupted with majesty, intending to intimidate Jidao Wu.

Was he going to rebel?

He was the King of the Xia Clan; could it be that he did not even have a shred of majesty?

At this moment, everyone looked toward Jidao Wu.

Yet they saw that Jidao Wu, wearing the pitch-black Star General uniform, said with a calm expression:

"Can King Xiachen alone represent the Xia Clan?!"

King Xiachen's breathing hitched.

Jidao Wu, however, continued to growl aloud:

"If King Xiachen tells us to march into Jin Province today, must we send troops to crusade against Jin Province!?"

Boom!

Terrifying light and flames erupted from King Xiachen's body, and air waves surged in an instant.

At this moment, murderous intent flared in King Xiachen's eyes, and he stared at Jidao Wu like an angry lion.

The world was shocked.

It was the first time they had seen someone dare to directly clash with a King of the Xia Clan.

Many people thought Jidao Wu was crazy.

The other party had not only helped Chen Yan openly more than once, but now he was even going to defy the King of the Xia Clan.

Everyone knew.

What seemed to be a clash between Jidao Wu and King Xiachen at this moment was actually a clash between Chen Yan and the Xia Clan.

Many people became worried.

After today, Chen Yan and Jidao Wu would likely both be punished by the Xia Clan.

"Good, good, good!" King Xiachen narrowed his eyes, the cold light in them almost freezing into ice; he was almost laughed to anger.

"You are courting death!"

He growled, knowing that Jidao Wu and these military guards of Xiaoyang City were only like this because of Chen Yan.

What was that Chen Yan trying to do?

Rebel against Great Xia from within Great Xia?

King Xiachen had already sentenced Chen Yan to death in his heart.

Even if you are an Immortal Body, and even if you have declared the emergence of the Will Path, it is useless.

Chen Yan had already touched the majesty of the Xia Clan.

He would undoubtedly die!

Behind King Xiachen, coldness bloomed in Lu Fusang's eyes.

It was he who had underestimated Chen Yan, underestimated Chen Yan's foundation.

That a member of the Chen Clan could build such a massive power base within Great Xia was unimaginable.

A trace of a smile appeared at the corner of Lu Fusang's mouth.

Want to compare reputation, is it?

A thought flashed through his mind.

And just at this moment.

Roar!

Above the clouds, a wild lion suddenly roared in anger.

Crack!

A golden lightning bolt flashed across the high heavens, and a shadow that blotted out the sky and sun pressed down over the entirety of Xiaoyang City; everyone looked toward the top of their heads in shock.

Those were four beast hooves!

On the beast hooves, every single strand of fur looked as if it were cast from gilded gold.

Gradually descending!

A thick and solemn, boundless pressure descended between heaven and earth.

Roar!

The beast's roar shook the sky!

A majestic and vast golden lion phantom, as if from the primordial wilderness, slowly descended from the other shore of the deep and unfathomable deep space with the momentum of a landslide and a tsunami.

Within this phantom stood thousands of figures with imposing auras.

They exerted their life-blood together to construct this golden lion phantom, the light and flames blazing intensely!

Immediately, shouts that sounded like overturning rivers and seas rang out from their mouths.

"Lu Clan Fusang, invincible under heaven!"

"Lu Clan Fusang, invincible under heaven!"

"Lu Clan Fusang, invincible under heaven!"

A powerful aura instantly stunned the entire Xiaoyang; that towering Golden Lion glared at the heavens and earth just like that, its majestic and terrifying presence making one's heart tremble with fear!

At this moment, even King Xiachen frowned slightly, looking toward Lu Fusang.

He also did not know that the Lu Clan had actually dispatched so many people to cheer and show support for Lu Fusang.

King Xiachen understood in his heart; he had still underestimated Lu Fusang's status within the Lu Clan.

Dressed in white, Lu Fusang wore a smile, dense golden lightning erupting from within his eyes; in an instant, he stepped out, flew to the tip of the Golden Lion's nose, and scanned the heavens and earth:

"I, Lu Fusang, have come to be the Great Xia's number one star general, to seek a peaceful future for the world!"

He stretched out his arms, embracing the world.

"I will not be some second Lu Xunyang; what I want to be is the first Lu Fusang!"

Star generals like Jidao Wu all narrowed their eyes; they once again felt the powerful pressure coming from Lu Fusang.

This person was ambitious; killing Chen Yan was merely his first step into Great Xia, or rather, just a stepping stone.

What the other party wanted would only be more!

Xi Congyun's expression trembled; just by sensing from afar, his heart sank.

He had crossed paths with Lu Fusang many times, and at this moment, he clearly discovered Lu Fusang's changes.

Lu Fusang had become stronger again!

It was not just Xi Congyun who had this feeling.

At this moment, even Jidao Wu felt that he might not necessarily be able to defeat the other party.

So strong!

How on earth does this person cultivate?

His heart was higher than the heavens, his arrogance knew no bounds, and he did not shy away from revealing his ambition; at this moment, he was suppressing all the star generals by himself!

A trace of a smile appeared at the corner of Lu Fusang's mouth, his gaze sweeping toward the Military Martial Guard.

Chen Yan, are you still not coming out?

His every step, while appearing arrogant, was actually just setting an inescapable death trap for Chen Yan.

His mind was meticulous to the extreme.

He wanted a sure win; he wanted Chen Yan to be surely dead!

The so-called life-and-death agreement was always just a verbal promise.

If it came to the final step of the battle and Chen Yan wanted to flee, would those Military Martial Guards not protect Chen Yan?

Would the experts secretly protecting Chen Yan not intervene?

This was simply child's play!

He wanted to sign a Life-and-Death Scroll with Chen Yan!

Once the Life-and-Death Scroll is signed, the heavens and earth will impose constraints; the two will fight to the death, with only one living and one dying!

A trace of a smile appeared at the corner of Lu Fusang's mouth.

He wanted to force Chen Yan to appear and force Chen Yan to sign the Life-and-Death Scroll.

He did not underestimate Chen Yan; he also worried that he might die.

But he still did it.

A real man without a bit of courage cannot accomplish great things!

Chen Yan, are you still not coming out?

Lu Fusang's gaze was sharp.

"Lu Clan's Fusang, invincible under heaven!"

"Lu Clan's Fusang, invincible under heaven!"

"Lu Clan's Fusang, invincible under heaven!"

Inside the Golden Lion, over a thousand prodigies of the Lu Clan were still shouting, and the majesty from the Lu Clan was still reverberating.

At this moment, everyone understood.

This Lu Fusang was simply not someone Lu Xuanzhi could compare to.

This person was the absolute core prodigy of the Lu Clan.

Within Xiaoyang City, some youths who revered Chen Yan had difficult expressions, and some girls who admired Chen Yan had tears in their eyes.

Some old men were red-faced, holding back a breath of anger.

Frustrated!

Uncomfortable!

Chen Yan was the invincible prodigy who came out of their Qinzhou, yet the Lu Clan had come directly to their doorstep to shout.

What was even more uncomfortable was that Lu Fusang actually had King Xiachen, a prince of the Xia Clan, backing him.

Who wouldn't be uncomfortable?

Chen Yan was the face of Qinzhou, but what were they encountering and facing these days?

No person with clear eyes could stand to watch it.

An old man kept striking the ground with his cane, his old face gloomy to the extreme.

Angry, furious!

Under the shouting of these Lu Clan prodigies, this anger became even more terrifying and intense!

It was as if someone was constantly knocking on your forehead, forcing you to recognize their so-called outrageous and absurd logic.

At this moment, it was not just Chen Yan who was frustrated, but the entire Xiaoyang!

Within the Military Martial Guard, Shang Yunwu glared at Qiong Tian, his aura erupting.

Chen Yan was the savior of all the prodigies in the Military Martial Guard; how could he be forced like this?

He roared with almost every ounce of his strength:

"Chen Yan of Qinzhou, the Heaven's Pride is immortal!"

His voice, carrying fury, carrying killing intent, and carrying an indescribable worship, pierced through the barrier of shouts coming from the Heaven's Pride of the Lu Clan like a sharp blade!

It just rang out like that!

Everyone heard it, and the next moment, they shouted!

"Chen Yan of Qinzhou, the Heaven's Pride is immortal!"

"Chen Yan of Qinzhou, the Heaven's Pride is immortal!"

"Chen Yan of Qinzhou, the Heaven's Pride is immortal!"

The momentum shook the heavens, and the entire Xiaoyang was trembling!
