Zhou Weiqing naturally didn’t know what has transpired back at the palace as he used his fastest speed to return.
He could already see the distant mountain range where the Xuantian Palace was located, and his fury burned brighter and brighter. He had repeatedly tried to communicate with Bing’er to no avail. That seed of anxiety had transformed into a fiery rage. For the sake of his love, he wouldn’t mind doing battle against the entire world.
Alas, regardless of his current mood, he just couldn’t find it in him to be angry at Dongfang Hanyue. What was he going to do now? Sneak into the citadel? No, that’s virtually impossible.
If the people from the palace have captured Bing’er, they would be expecting me to come rescue her secretly. With their numerical advantage as well as the Tenebrous Demon Dragon, a secret rescue would impossible. If that’s the case, then I might as well act a bit more brashly.
Having thought to this point, Zhou Weiqing didn’t slow down and continued flying towards the citadel. The Saint Energy seemed to be boiling inside his body. With his current cultivation, flying long distances in the winged Dragon-Tiger form wasn’t a great burden on his body. The Saint Energy remained ‘full’ from start to finish.
The palace eventually appeared in sight. Right at this moment, shouts rang out, and over a hundred shadows rushed into the skies in order to stop Zhou Weiqing.
He wasn’t too clear on just how powerful Xuantian Palace was in combat, but as the only Great Saint Land in the Xuantian Continent, how could they not be strong?
He stopped in the sky and looked down carefully. Those who were flying up weren’t just Heavenly Jewel Masters, they were riding Heavenly Beasts as well. The beasts’ cultivation varied but they were all powerful flying creatures. The weakest was around the Zun Stage while the masters were all at the five-Jeweled level and above. Clearly, they had immediately rushed up after detecting Weiqing.
He calmly floated there and let this aerial ‘army’ surround him without moving. He shouted towards the citadel’s direction, “Dongfang Hanyue, come out here or don’t blame me showing no mercy.”
Energy came from his dantian to empower this shout. With his Saint Energy and nine-Jeweled cultivation, the flying beasts in front of him all were all blasted backwards, one after another. The overbearing and furious voice resounded across the valley and echoed back.
These Heavenly Jewel Masters still haven’t attacked him… because some of them recognized him.
When joining the palace, Zhou Weiqing had revealed his brilliance during his welcoming banquet and shocked all of the upper echelon members. These commanders of the aerial army had participated in that party as well, so they naturally recognized him as Consecrated Zhou.
The palace has been keeping Shangguan Bing’er’s matter a strict secret, and so these people didn’t know what has happened between Zhou Weiqing and their sect.
“Consecrated Zhou, what are you saying? Please calm down first.” A nine-Jeweled master controlled his mount and flew before Weiqing. He respectfully saluted him and smiled. At the same time, his eyes were full of amazement.
The large wings behind the Dragon-Tiger Transformation spread out wide, and his skin was covered with violet draconic runes which pulsated with dominating power. More importantly, Zhou Weiqing no longer hid his number of Jewels. He had nine Jewels in each hand! This was an immense difference compared to the five Jewels he had back at the party. How could these experts not feel shocked?
Zhou Weiqing smiled calmly. “This isn’t your problem. As long as you don’t attack me, I won’t hurt you.”
The commander felt a bit speechless. He couldn’t help but think to himself, “We have more than one hundred men on top of supporting Heavenly Beasts. Even if this guy is as strong as nine oxen, how could he hurt us?”
Despite thinking this, he didn’t dare to issue a command to attack. Who knew why this was happening? What if it was only a misunderstanding? If they hurt Consecrated Zhou, how were they going to report this to their superiors? Moreover, he was a God Tier Consolidating Equipment Master as well. Everyone wanted to be on his good side for further benefits!
Zhou Weiqing’s loud shout was effective. Within the citadel, at least ten more Heavenly Jewel Masters all came out. Among this cluster were Dong Fang and the four Grand Elders.
Zhou Weiqing’s expression sank after seeing this. His rage surged even more. Dongfang Hanyue still won’t come out to see me? Is she feeling guilty?
“Consecrated Zhou, please come down and talk.” The masked Dong Fang beckoned at Weiqing.
Surrounded by the aerial army, Zhou Weiqing slowly descended. He stared at the other side of the abyss, staring towards Dong Fang and the others. He said coldly, “Are you the fake or real palace master? The only person I want to talk to is the person who is in charge?”
Dong Fang frowned slightly. “Consecrated Zhou, calm down first. We are very appreciative of your help during the crucial moments of the disaster. What are you trying to do right now?”
Zhou Weiqing smiled brightly. “Appreciative? Really? Then where is my wife? Your way of repaying me is to capture her? I’ll have you know, if even a strand of hair from Bing’er is missing, I will bathe the Xuantian Citadel with blood and and erase your palace from this continent.”
This response enraged Dong Fang. She had originally discussed this over with the four Grand Elders previously and decided to repair their relations with Zhou Weiqing for her daughter’s sake. Moreover, they thought that Hanyue’s perspective made sense as well. The Spatial Teleportation Gem was already in his possession. If he actually chose to abandon Shangguan Bing’er, not only would they lose him, but they would also have made an enemy out of this young man, who would definitely become a peerless powerhouse in the future. Thus, it was simpler to return Bing’er to him in order to improve their relationship and let him leave quickly. He had to return to the Boundless Mainland anyhow, so even if he caused trouble it wouldn’t be here at the Xuantian Continent.
Alas, no one expected for Weiqing to act so arrogant at this moment. Dong Fang might not be the real Palace Master, but given her position, she was only below one person and above all others at the Palace. Given her prestige, she has never been yelled at so aggressively by anyone. Not even Hanyue would dare to do so!
Even though her heart had turned cold after realizing that Zhou Weiqing was aware of them having placed Shangguan Bing’er under house arrest, she was also enraged by his behavior.
Even if you are have incredible potential, it is still just potential. You brat, you aren’t even a Heavenly King yet. You dare to boast about bathing the Xuantian Palace in blood?
Chapter 255: Don’t Make Me Bathe The Xuantian Citadel In Blood! (3)
Dong Fang was so enraged that she laughed, “Good, good, good. Let me see just how you will bathe my XuanTian Palace in blood. I’ll have you know that your wife has already been killed by me.”
These words had been blurted out in a fit of anger. However, they were like thunder in Zhou Weiqing’s ears. At that very moment, Zhou Weiqing was rooted on the spot with a blank expression.
Of the XuanTian Palace air force surrounding him in the sky, those facing him could clearly see Zhou Weiqing’s eyes rapidly take on a blood red color that made their hearts shiver with fear.
Zhou Weiqing’s entire body trembled as an extremely unstable energy fluctuation suddenly rippled from his body.
