Chapter 547: Entering the Imperial Court for the First Time
A strong person in the Tianyuan realm does have the power to open mountains and cut rivers.
But someone like Ji Tianxing, who can turn dozens of miles around into a sea of fire and scorched earth with just one move of his huge flaming palm, is really terrifying!
Even if Ling Yichun's strength is three levels higher than his, he still thinks he can't do this.
He had witnessed the power of Burning Heaven Palm with his own eyes, how could he not be filled with shock and horror?
However, Ji Tianxing's face was calm and his eyes were as calm as ever.
He turned his head to look at Ling Yichun beside him and asked, "Senior Brother Ling, where is the man in black?"
"Uh..." Ling Yiyan was startled for a moment, then showed a sly smile and explained: "The strength of the assassin in black has reached the fourth level of Tianyuan Realm, which is on par with me.
I fought with him for more than ten moves, but it was still hard to tell the winner.
Although I had the upper hand, it was still difficult to defeat him in a short period of time.
Just then, you used the Burning Heaven Palm move again. It was so powerful that the man in black and I quickly got out of the way.
In the chaos, the man in black saw that the situation was not good and ran away."
Ji Tianxing nodded and said solemnly: "So, we fought with two assassins, but we still can't figure out who sent them."
A flash of self-blame flashed in Ling Yichun's eyes, and he quickly comforted him and said: "Junior brother Ji, I have recorded the aura of the man in black.
If I meet him again next time, I will definitely recognize him!"
"Well, that's fine." Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said calmly: "Brother Ling, one assassin is dead and the other has escaped. The other assassin should not make any more moves tonight.
Let’s leave here first and find a safe place to rest for a while.”
Ling Yichun naturally nodded in agreement and followed him into the night sky, continuing to fly towards the south.
The two of them flew through the night sky at lightning speed, chatting through spiritual sound transmission as they hurried on.
Ji Tianxing looked calm on the surface, but he probed Ling Yichuan in a subtle way and asked: "Senior Brother Ling, you seem to have guessed that there is an assassin who wants to assassinate us?"
Ling Yiyang was startled for a moment, then explained with a smile: "It's not us, it's you!
I am a solitary person with no enemies.
On the other hand, Junior Brother Ji, you have been in the limelight recently, and you will definitely attract the attention and prying eyes of all forces.
There are so many powerful people on the land of Zhongzhou, and all kinds of powerful forces emerge in endlessly. The relationships between them are inextricably linked, criss-crossed, and very complex.
Maybe you haven't done anything, but you have offended someone invisibly and hindered the development and plans of certain forces.
Therefore, it is inevitable that someone will want to attack you and strangle you in the cradle."
Ling Yichun's words seemed to say a lot, but he didn't say anything clearly. They were ambiguous and unclear.
But Ji Tianxing understood that Ling Yizhen was reminding him to be cautious.
After a moment of silence, he asked again: "Senior Brother Ling, why did you save me in such a critical situation just now?
You and I are just acquaintances, there is no need for you to risk your life and fight against assassins for my sake."
Ling Yiya frowned and looked at him, and said in a disappointed tone: "Junior Brother Ji, we are both the emperor's sons under Master Kaiyun, so we are brothers.
I really didn’t expect that I regard you as my junior brother, but you regard me as an outsider who is an acquaintance.
Hey! If I had known you thought this way, I should have run away decisively just now, leaving you alone and letting you fend for yourself."
As he spoke, he shook his head depressedly, looking disappointed.
Ji Tianxing looked at him sideways, unable to tell what he really thought, so he could only suppress the speculation in his heart for the time being.
"Senior Brother Ling, you misunderstood.
I mean, you could have stayed out of it and there was no need to take the risk to save me.
Since you generously came to rescue me, I am naturally grateful to you and want to say thank you."
Ling Yichun glanced at him, as if he was thinking about it again, "If you want to thank me, you can't just say it in words. Let's see how you behave in the future."
Ji Tianxing just smiled and said nothing more.
Half an hour later, the two flew three hundred miles away and entered an ancient city.
The two of them stayed in a luxurious inn and rested for a few hours.
After daybreak, both of them had recovered their physical strength and true energy, so they left the inn and continued towards the south.
For the next whole day, the two of them galloped through the sky without encountering any more dangers or ambushes along the way.
That evening, Ji Tianxing and Ling Yichun finally entered the Liantian Mountains and arrived at the foot of Jietian Peak.
It was just as the sun was setting.
The afterglow of the setting sun shines on Jietian Peak, making the entire peak covered with a layer of faint golden light, making it appear even more sacred and majestic.
Ji Tianxing and Ling Yiyan stood in the square at the foot of the mountain, looking at this towering giant peak.
I saw dozens of statues hundreds of meters high standing around the square with a radius of one kilometer.
These statues are all sages and strong men of the human race, and they are placed in the square for the people of the human race to admire.
There is a wide black stone shrine at the end of the square, extending halfway up the steep mountain.
Many palace buildings were built on the hillsides on both sides of the Shinto, revealing the atmosphere of ancient times.
Moreover, every hundred steps away on the Shinto, there stood an imperial guard wearing silver armor and holding a halberd.
These Imperial Guards were all majestic, standing upright like stone sculptures, motionless, looking extremely solemn and solemn.
Going up the Shinto, halfway up the mountain, the white clouds and mist obscured everything.
Ji Tianxing and Ling Yichun looked up at Jietian Peak, both showing awe and solemn expressions.
Ling Yichun said with a solemn expression: "Junior Brother Ji, this giant peak is the holy land of our human race, Jietian Peak.
At the top of Jietian Peak is the Imperial Court.
This must be your first time coming to the Imperial Court, right? Later, you have to take a good look at the scenery of Jietian Peak."
"Yes." Ji Tianxing nodded slightly and said calmly: "Let's go up."
Later, both he and Ling Yichun restored their true colors and transformed back into majestic and noble sons of the emperor.
The two of them crossed the wide square, climbed onto the black stone Shinto, and walked halfway up the mountain.
The ceremony for the emperor to choose his concubine is tomorrow.
It was still early, so they were not in a hurry and rushed to the mountainside while enjoying the scenery along the way.
Jietian Peak is surrounded by green and lush mountains.
Towering and tall peaks are located in the endless mountains, their true appearance obscured by white clouds and thick fog.
Not long after, Ji Tianxing and Ling Yizhen climbed halfway up the mountain and arrived at a towering gate.
There are many imperial guards guarding the gate, and only those who have received the invitation can cross the gate and climb to the top of the mountain to watch the ceremony.
Ji Tianxing and Ling Yichun took out their respective invitations and handed them to the captain of the guard for inspection before being allowed to enter.
The two of them crossed the gate, followed the solemn black Shinto, and continued to climb to the top of the mountain.
The buildings halfway up the mountainside were all shrouded in white clouds and mist, looming.
The two of them climbed the mountain in the clouds and mist, watching the scenery along the way, which was very interesting.
