Chapter 664: Fu Jiu, Paying Homage to Your Majesty!

Earlier, he thought the masked man was the Emperor Sovereign of the Peak of the Hunt, but deeming it unlikely, he ignored it.

Now that feeling grows stronger!

After all, no one in this world would, after learning Fu Jiu's identity, still dare to command him so imperiously.

Except Fu Hanxiu!

"Could it be…" White Protector's heart raced, his complexion shifting repeatedly, his eyes on Fu Hanxiu seeming to want to pierce the mask.

However, Nan Gong Han did not notice White Protector's abnormality.

At this moment, he was immensely swollen with confidence, believing that with White Protector as a backing, he could securely sit on the throne of Beimingzhou's overlord, even fantasizing about linking with the Peak of the Hunt to lay a foundation for a future march into Xi Ji Shengyu.

"Elder Ye Xiu, what are you saying?"

"Does he not know that Your Excellency Fu Jiu is a capable officer of the Emperor Sovereign of the Peak of the Hunt?"

Nan Gong Han also wore a scornful expression and shouted, "Your Excellency Fu Jiu, this Ye Xiu is extremely arrogant, daring to treat you as his subordinate to command—truly worthy of a thousand deaths!"

It seemed he could already foresee Ye Xiu's miserable fate, and a cold, predatory sneer involuntarily appeared on Nan Gong Han's face.

"Is that so?"

Fu Jiu's scarlet lips curled, and the vermilion mole at his brow grew even more vivid.

Your Majesty ordered him to kill Nan Gong Han, giving him a chance to make up for past deeds; of course he would not miss it.

Thus, Fu Jiu shifted his gaze toward Nan Gong Han; though he smiled, he caused Nan Gong Han's back to stiffen, sensing the breath of death.

"Your Excellency Fu Jiu…" Nan Gong Han was horrified inside, "What are you about to do?"

【7】 The one who offended Fu Jiu was clearly Ye Xiu; why does he look at me like that?

The one who offended Fu Jiu is clearly Ye Xiu; why does Ye Xiu look at me like that?

"Of course… to kill you!"

Nan Gong Han's pupils constricted heavily; before he could react, Fu Jiu turned into a fleeting afterimage and lunged at him.

As the Emperor, Fu Jiu's cultivation could not be compared to Nan Gong Han's.

Nevertheless, Nan Gong Han did have some skill and barely evaded Fu Jiu's attack.

"Emperor's Will?"

Ye Qingran lifted the corner of her eyebrow, murmuring softly.

No wonder Nan Gong Han is so eager to dominate Beimingzhou; it turns out he has already grasped the Emperor's Will.

"Tsk, it got dodged." Seeing his attack actually evaded by Nan Gong Han, Fu Jiu stood still, looking at his empty hand, lightly blowing his face, his thin lips parting, his whole demeanor becoming bewitchingly alluring, like a fairy.

Although Nan Gong Han dodged Fu Jiu's attack, he dared not be careless at all.

Fu Jiu's strength was too great; he was no match for Fu Jiu at all.

If he gave his all, there would be no way to evade.

"White Protector!"

He could only cast a pleading glance at White Protector.

But at this moment, White Protector was completely bewildered.

If Fu Jiu did not strike, it would prove his speculation wrong; but once Fu Jiu does strike, it undeniably confirms his conjecture.

The masked man was none other than Fu Hanxiu!

"The Emperor Sovereign of the Peak of the Hunt is actually also…" White Protector's heart sank to the bottom of a valley.

If it were only Fu Jiu alone, he would not be frightened at all, but with Fu Hanxiu present, he began to worry whether he could leave this place alive.

"White Protector!"

Nan Gong Han's shout snapped his thoughts back, but White Protector at this moment had no mind to care about Nan Gong Han's life or death; he could barely protect himself!

"May you pray for your own fortune!" White Protector gritted his teeth and said.

"White Protector!" Nan Gong Han could hardly believe his ears, "How could you treat me so? I am your lifesaver!"

White Protector turned his head, remaining unmoved.

Nan Gong Han's anger flared.

"You ungrateful dog! If I hadn't stepped in to save you back then, Bai Bing would now be nothing but a white skeleton!"

Only then did everyone realize that Nan Gong Han's good relationship with White Protector stemmed from having once saved White Protector.

However, now it seemed White Protector intended to repay kindness with hatred.

"Bai Bing, you swine-dog creature, even if I die, I won't let you go!"

Nan Gong Han pointed at White Protector, raving, while also not forgetting to call upon the saints of Huangjin City to lend him a hand.

However, the saints of Huangjin City, upon learning that Fu Jiu came from the Peak of the Hunt and possessed Emperor-level cultivation, dared not intervene.

"You bunch of ungrateful beasts!"

Nan Gong Han never imagined in his dreams that one day he would fall to such a fate of being betrayed by all and abandoned by kin!

Snap~

Fu Jiu's ghostly figure appeared before Nan Gong Han, then seized his throat with a grip.

Nan Gong Han, horrified to the brink, asked with difficulty, "Why?"

Fu Jiu smiled, leaned close to Nan Gong Han, and whispered something in his ear.

Nan Gong Han's eyes widened, staring incredulously toward a certain direction in the crowd, as if struck by a massive fright.

Snap~

Fu Jiu crushed Nan Gong Han's throat.

Seeing the corpse that Fu Jiu had thrown to the ground, everyone was stunned for a while.

The lord of Huangjin City, Nan Gong Han, just died like that?

All of this happened far too suddenly, right?

Nangong Mo, who witnessed everything with his own eyes, had a fleeting ripple in his eyes before quickly returning to calm.

Fu Jiu killed his father, yet he felt no hatred.

After all, Nan Gong Cang and he had long severed ties.

But what exactly did Fu Jiu say to Nan Gong Cang? Why was he so terrified before death?

"No!" Compared with Nangong Mo, Nan Gong Han's reaction was far greater.

Nan Gong Cang is his life's support; without him, who will shelter him from wind and rain, clear the obstacles?

"My father and you have no grievance; why did you kill him?"

Nan Gong Han clenched his fists, stared into Fu Jiu's eyes, filled with bone‑gnawing hatred.

"Do you want to know the answer?"

It's not only Nan Gong Han; everyone wants to know the answer.

Why did Fu Jiu, the imperial warlord of the summit of the hunt, heed Ye Xiu's words and strike down Nan Gong Cang?

Fu Jiu turned around, faced the direction where Fu Hanxiu stood, and then knelt amid the shocked gazes of the crowd!

"Fu Jiu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!"

Fu Jiu's previously flamboyant voice now finally became solemn.

His voice rang loudly into everyone's ears.

Fu Jiu, I pay my respects to Your Majesty!

Those words exploded in everyone's ears like individual bombs.

Fu Jiu, the imperial warlord of the summit of the hunt, knelt to pay respects to Elder Ye Xiu, formally addressing him as Your Majesty.

Everything is self‑evident!
