Chapter 1270 1263: Defying the Heavens!
"Chief Steward He, this..."
Gu Yunxiao glanced at He Zhong, a trace of difficulty appearing on his face.
If King of Great Xia issued the order, even if they weren't opponents, he would commence battle without hesitation. However, he hesitated at the command of this old eunuch.
After all, as one of the ten commanders of the Golden Lion Armor Guard, his status in the Royal Palace wasn't low, so he didn't need to look at the old eunuch's mood.
Moreover, he knew a bit about the royal order this time, which seemed to be the King of Great Xia summoning this Lord of Wind Ridge Town to the Royal Palace.
But now this old eunuch started a battle over a disagreement, which caused him slight difficulty.
"What's the matter, Commander Gu? These people defy the royal order, hurry up and arrest them!"
Seeing Commander Gu hesitating, He Zhong's thin eyebrows suddenly raised, and anger intensified in his pale eyes.
"Commander Gu, you are responsible for upholding the royal order. Are you also going to defy my command, allowing these people to disregard the royal order? I will definitely report this to the King when I return to the Royal Palace."
He Zhong coldly stated, staring at Gu Yunxiao with a piercing voice.
"I dare not."
Upon hearing this, Gu Yunxiao's expression shifted slightly, then quickly said.
Though this old eunuch was often arrogant outside, he was quite trusted by the King of Great Xia. Should he whisper to the King, branding him as negligent,
then he would forever be stuck in this position, and the royal treatment would be reduced.
"If you dare not, then proceed to detain those defying the royal order!"
He Zhong's face turned icy, pointing at Qin Yang and those behind him, he spoke sharply.
"Hmph, I don't believe they'd dare resist. Attacking the Golden Lion Armor Guard is tantamount to opposing the Great Xia Dynasty!"
He Zhong coldly snorted, sounding his sharp voice to echo over Wind Ridge Town.
Clearly, he also saw that the strength of Qin Yang and the others surpassed that of Commander Gu and his escort.
"Yes, Chief Steward He."
Gu Yunxiao clenched his teeth and nodded, bowing, then looked back at the Golden Lion Armor Guard.
"Golden Lion Armor Guard, where are you?!"
Gu Yunxiao's aura exploded, formidable as a mountain, staring at the hundred soldiers in golden armor, he shouted loudly.
"Here! Here! Here!"
A hundred Golden Lion Armor Guards raised their golden spears, piercing the sky, loudly responding, their voices resonating over Wind Ridge Town.
"Form an attack formation!"
Gu Yunxiao's voice boomed as he shouted loudly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Upon hearing, the aura around the hundred Golden Lion Armor Guards erupted instantly.
Swish, swish, swish!
As the hundred Golden Lion Armor Guards' aura erupted, their silhouettes shifted, forming a semicircle around Qin Yang and his comrades, the cold golden light gleaming at the tips of their spears, also aiming at Qin Yang and the others.
"Is the Golden Lion Armor Guard going to take action against the Lord?"
"The Golden Lion Armor Guard represents the royal family."
"..."
Witnessing this, tens of thousands of cultivators below showed a hint of astonishment, clearly not expecting the Golden Lion Armor Guard to attack the Lord.
"Brother Qin Yang?"
Behind Qin Yang, Zilan's brows gently furrowed, while Nangong Feiyang and others slightly knit their brows.
"Lord."
Zhao Tai's face sank as he looked at Qin Yang, knowing well in his heart that the Lord's temperament wouldn't allow easy surrender.
He never imagined himself engaging in battle against the rulers of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Gazing at the nearly encircled Golden Lion Armor Guards, Qin Yang's eyes flashed with cold brilliance.
Although the Great Xia Dynasty's royal family has declined, a starved camel is larger than a horse, the family still houses numerous experts; their strength shouldn't be underestimated.
However, he, a high-ranking Alchemist, even in such dynasties, the royal family shouldn't dare act recklessly.
Otherwise, if Alchemists aren't respected, would any high-ranking Alchemist ever come to this Dynasty again? The fact that the old eunuch dared to order his arrest—if truly so—marks the end for the Great Xia Dynasty.
Those intending to seize him with inferior strength, thinking he'd submit easily.
What about royal figures? They'll be slaughtered without hesitation!
In the worst-case, retreat back to Earth, and upon reaching the Immortal King Realm, uproot the Great Xia Dynasty!
"Old scoundrel, seems today you're eager to die in my Wind Ridge Town?!"
Qin Yang's gaze targeted He Zhong, icy cold with a hint of murderous intent.
Boom!
As his words fell, Qin Yang's aura also dispersed.
"Lord, I've long found this old dog displeasing, kill them if needed!"
Leng Feng chimed in, immediately, his body flooded with blood-red spiritual power.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Nangong Feiyang, Zilan, and others hesitated not a bit, their auras erupted.
Zhao Tai, Wang Zhang, Tian Hai, and eight Immortal Venerable Realm experts exchanged glances.
It was evident Wang Zhang, Tian Hai, and others hesitated slightly at opposing the royal family since the family ruled the Great Xia Dynasty.
"How dare you try to seize the Lord?!"
Zhao Tai didn't hesitate much, his aura erupted immediately, glaring fiercely as he spoke.
Seeing this, Wang Zhang, Tian Hai, and others also didn't hesitate further, their auras erupted. Having joined the Lord's Mansion and vowed to the Heavenly Dao, they dared not breach it. Besides, knowing the Lord's methods, failing at a crucial moment would bring dire consequences.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Behind the eight Immortal Venerable Realm experts, the hundred House Guards in red armor exploded their aura skyward, their momentum firmly suppressing the Golden Lion Armor Guard.
Witnessing the small lord and his followers erupting their aura and even threatening him, He Zhong's face momentarily showed disbelief, but then his eyes grew angrier.
"Alright, alright, rebellion in the heavens!"
He Zhong's voice turned supremely sharp, pointing at Qin Yang coldly: "I don't believe a small lord dares challenge the Great Xia royal family."
"Ignorant old dog, seems you truly wish to die in my Wind Ridge Town!"
Seeing this, Qin Yang coldly snorted, his eyes filled with icy white, chilling fiercely toward He Zhong.
As Qin Yang stared at him, He Zhong's body grew cold, as if entering an ice cellar, gazing at Qin Yang in fear.
Already nonexistent below, even colder than before, with a hint of urinary urgency.
Yet the flash of fear and urinary urge quickly transformed into intense shame. He, the renowned Chief Steward of the Great Xia Royal Palace, whenever he delivered imperial decrees, ministers in the Royal Palace, and marquises in major cities, all treated him respectfully, giving him some face.
