Yan Yongning narrowed his eyes, his eyes became sharp, and he said in a low tone: "You will pay a heavy price for this, even death!"
Ji Tianxing spread his hands disapprovingly and said in an indifferent tone: "At most, you will be surrounded by countless powerful people and fight for a fight.
Then, the entire imperial city was destroyed, and I was somewhat injured..."
Before he could finish his words, Yan Yongning's face darkened, and he slapped his hand on the table angrily.
"Bang!"
A muffled sound erupted, echoing endlessly in the hall.
The table made of top-quality divine jade was smashed into pieces and scattered on the floor.
"Arrogant! Absolutely arrogant!"
Yan Yongning laughed angrily, pointed at Ji Tianxing and cursed: "Boy, you are so crazy that there is no limit to it!
There are so many strong men under my command. If I want to kill you, you will be wiped out with just a snap of a finger.
Is it because I cherish my talents and am too kind to you that I let you be so presumptuous?"
Ji Tianxing still looked indifferent and said expressionlessly: "At the beginning, the King of Blood Flame, King of Wrath Flame and Prince Lian all had similar reactions to yours.
However, you have also seen the results.
Today I will leave my words here and you can weigh them yourself.
If you are confident enough, you might as well give it a try and see whether the imperial city is destroyed first or I am killed first?
Anyway, you are also ambushing hundreds of divine kings and thousands of imperial guards around this palace.
As long as you give an order, they will rush over and besiege me."
Ji Tianxing was not only confident and arrogant enough, but he also revealed Yan Yongning's thoughts with one word.
That's right.
Before summoning Ji Tianxing, Yan Yongning secretly arranged an ambush.
Hundreds of powerful divine kings of the Imperial Guard, plus thousands of elite Imperial Guards, are all ambushing around the palace, ready for action at any time.
Yan Yongning was exposed, but he didn't feel embarrassed and quickly calmed down.
He took a few deep breaths, suppressed his anger, stared at Ji Tianxing with sharp eyes, and was silent for a long time.
To be honest, he was still very unconvinced and very angry at Ji Tianxing's arrogance.
But he knew better that Ji Tianxing was also a top divine king.
Even if all the powerful men in the palace are exhausted, Ji Tianxing can be killed in the end.
But the price paid was that the entire palace was razed to the ground and thousands of guards, ministers and royal family members were killed.
The war would even spread to the entire imperial city, turning it into ruins and causing millions of people to die innocently.
By then, even if he won the battle and killed Ji Tianxing, he would still have lost face.
He will become the laughing stock of the world and become the most humiliating emperor of the Great Yan Empire.
The most important thing is.
The exploration of the Jade Palace has reached a critical moment.
The gate of the shrine may be opened at any time.
At that time, the fifty factions will have to compete with each other to gain the qualifications to enter the shrine.
The royal family can definitely enter the shrine.
However, after the fierce battle with Ji Tianxing, a large number of the strong men under his command were lost.
In the process of exploring the temple, he was unable to take the initiative.
Thinking of this, Yan Yongning could only force himself to calm down and consider the matter carefully.
After thinking for a long time, he finally couldn't help it and sighed silently in his heart.
"Oh...that's all!
This son has no enmity against me, so why should I fight with him and consume my power in vain?
When the time comes, Prince Lian will only see the joke secretly and take pleasure in his misfortune!
Even if I can kill this son, I will still have to pay a heavy price and bring shame to the empire..."
Yan Yongning knew very well that he, the newly appointed young emperor, had not yet secured his throne.
There are many people with ulterior motives who are always looking for opportunities to oust him from the throne.
At this moment, he must not make a big mistake and must be cautious.
Therefore, Yan Yongning made up his mind and said to Ji Tianxing with a solemn expression: "Boy, you are very smart, but you are also arrogant and annoying.
You are lucky. I am in a good mood and have been promoting gentle and benevolent policies in recent decades.
Therefore, I can forgive your recklessness and help you make requests to several pavilion elders.
As for whether the cabinet elders agree to your entering the cabinet to check the information, that has nothing to do with me."
Ji Tianxing nodded immediately and said with a smile: "I am very pleased that you were able to weigh the priorities and pros and cons and make this decision. I would like to say thank you."
Although it was a thank you, Yan Yongning felt awkward no matter what he heard, and his eyebrows furrowed severely.
"Boy, what do you mean?"
Ji Tianxing did not shy away and said very straightforwardly: "You and I both know very well that even if you can kill me with all the power of the empire, you will still have to pay a heavy price.
The Great Yan Empire has accumulated power for so long that it is sacred and invincible in the eyes of the people of the world.
If I destroy the imperial city and massacre tens of millions of people, it will be a great shame and humiliation, and you will also bring shame to the royal family.
You have just been on the throne for a few decades, and you still need to use benevolent policies to win over people's hearts and stabilize the situation.
If a major chaos breaks out and the image you have worked so hard to create collapses overnight, those who criticize you in the empire will take advantage of the situation and create rumors.
Besides, you and I both want to get rid of Prince Lian, so there is no need to fight to the death and let Prince Lian sit on the mountain and watch the fight between tigers and tigers.
The most important thing is that there is another major event in the northwest, which is what you are most concerned about and looking forward to. You cannot affect your plans because of me..."
When Yan Yongning finished hearing these words, his eyes narrowed severely, turning into slits, and cold light flashed.
His whole body was tense, he forgot to breathe, and he was shocked and angry inside.
At that moment, he wanted to grab Ji Tianxing's neck and ask, how the hell do you know so clearly?
And that big event in the northwest, are you referring to the Jade Shrine?
Damn bastard, how do you know the existence of the Jade Shrine?
Which bastard who killed a thousand swords actually leaked the news?
Yan Yongning's heart was roaring and murderous intent was boiling.
But he tried his best to suppress his anger and murderous intention and keep himself calm.
"Hehehehe...hahahaha..."
After a long time, Yan Yongning suddenly sneered, then threw his head back and laughed.
"The ancients say that the one who survives to the end may not be the strong one, but he must be the wise one!
I finally understand why you can survive until now despite causing so many great disasters.
Boy, you can do it! Well done to you!"
Yan Yongning stared at Ji Tianxing with stern eyes, held out his thumb, and said "praise" through gritted teeth.
Ji Tianxing knew that from this moment on, he and Yan Yongning had become enemies.
Although, Yan Yongning would not deal with him in the imperial city.
But that might not happen after he leaves the imperial city.
He didn't care, and said with an indifferent expression: "If that's the case, then this matter is settled. You can tell the elders."
Yan Yongning frowned and said in a serious tone: "My favor is not so easy to repay!
I can help you, but you must ensure that no matter what method you use, you will not let Prince Lian come back alive!
Moreover, this is a secret and must not be allowed to be known to others.
Otherwise, even if I use all the power of the empire to hunt you to the ends of the earth, I will never let you go!"
