Nine Nether Heavenly Emperor
Chapter 111 What a Lawless Person

Chapter 111: Chapter 111 What a Lawless Person

In this world where the weak are prey to the strong, and martial power is revered, to become an emperor, one must possess overwhelming strength to subdue all under heaven. Even inheriting the great rule from ancestors, without the deterrence of powerful strength, it is nearly impossible to secure one’s position in the world.

"The struggle for the throne is the same in every dynasty," Long Chen sighed and then said to Shi Feng, "My father emperor understands this better than anyone, and the current situation has reached a point where even he can’t control it anymore. The war among us brothers has become inevitable, and among my siblings, my power is the weakest. It seems like they want to eliminate me first."

"My eldest brother, Long Xing, being the firstborn, has the most supporters in the court, and he is even backed by the Golden Peng King, who ranks fifth among the top ten powerhouses."

"My second brother, Long Tian, his mother is the elder sister of Feng Luohan, the deputy sect master of the Skywind Sect, with Feng Luohan himself ranking eighth among the top ten powerhouses."

"My third brother, Long Ao, originally had power comparable to mine, but he and my elder sister Long Yan are blood siblings, and my elder sister is married to Shi Jintian. Oh no! Since my father emperor learned that Shi Jintian had entered the Five-star Martial Sovereign Realm, he has already appointed him as the King of the South."

"My fifth brother, Long Xin, has had innate divine strength since he was a child, with exceptional martial arts talent. Within the Yunlai Empire, it is said that his kind appears only once in a thousand years. Moreover, he possesses a mighty divine body, and at just fourteen, he is already a one-star Martial Emperor realm expert. His uncle is none other than General Hun Fei of our Yunlai Empire, a six-star Martial Emperor Realm powerhouse ranked sixth among the top ten powerhouses, commanding a million-strong army of our Yunlai Empire."

"Although my master is Nalan Yuan, the State Preceptor of the Yunlai Empire, at the peak of the Nine-star Martial Emperor Realm, tied for first place among the top ten powerhouses alongside the Skywind Sect Master Feng Qianyu, my master has already stated that he will not partake in the battle among us brothers."

After hearing Long Chen’s explanation, Shi Feng said, "So you’re saying, once the old man dies and it’s your turn to ascend to the throne, your brothers will dispose of you first and then use their powers to fight over the Yunlai Empire."

Shi Feng paused for a moment and then said to Long Chen, "Alright, no need for such a gloomy expression. As long as I’m here, I’ll make sure you secure that throne."

After hearing Shi Feng’s words, Long Chen gave a wry smile and said, "Young Master Feng, you’re still the same as before." His words were as before; to put it nicely, it was confidence in oneself; to put it less pleasantly, it was overestimating oneself.

Long Chen then sighed and said, "These days, I’ve been constantly increasing personnel to investigate Emperor Xiaoyao’s whereabouts, but sadly, Emperor Xiaoyao’s traces simply aren’t something mere mortals like us can find."

"That little brat, who knows in which woman’s nest he is hiding," Shi Feng cursed outright. It seemed as though his anger was because of Mo Xiaoyao’s disappointing behavior.

"Hehe," Long Chen chuckled dryly, speechless. He was gradually getting used to this young man who dared to do and say the most audacious things.

Long Chen had already received a message from Shadow No.8. The Young Lord of the Purple Thunder Sect, the Young Lord of the Blood Fiend Gate, and the Holy Maiden of the Ice Snow Valley, the three young geniuses of the Yunlai Empire and heirs to the Three Major Sects, he had acknowledged that all three had been killed by his own hand.

And indeed, when he slew the Yin Yang Double Strange, he used a technique similar to the Bloodthirsty Demon Art, devouring their blood and turning them into dried corpses; this event should have been witnessed by many in Moon City.

The Skywind Sect, Purple Thunder Sect, Blood Fiend Gate, Ice Snow Valley—the largest sects within the Yunlai Empire—had all been offended by him.

Long Chen thought that if Emperor Xiaoyao couldn’t be found, then this lawless lord’s life was probably nearing its end.

Emperor Xiaoyao, Emperor Xiaoyao, if only he could be found, everything would fall into place.

Long Chen had, by this time, placed nearly all his hopes on Shi Feng and Emperor Xiaoyao.

"Master." Just then, a golden-armored guard suddenly walked into the living room and reported to Long Chen, "Master, Prime Minister Zhao Qian seeks an audience outside the mansion."

"Zhao Qian?" Hearing this name, Long Chen’s brows suddenly furrowed, "What does he want with me?"

"Reporting to Master," the golden-armored guard continued, "Zhao Qian comes with a fierce demeanor, demanding that the Master hand over the perpetrator."

"Perpetrator? What perpetrator is he looking for here at my place!" Long Chen said with displeasure. Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind as if remembering something, his gaze shifted to Shi Feng, could it be that this audacious fellow has offended that old man Zhao Qian again?

"Oh, when I entered the city, I saw a black-faced little beast trying to forcefully abduct a woman, so I crippled the little beast’s family jewels and shattered the Dantian of his Martial King Realm guard. It seems like the little beast’s last name is Zhao, and I heard from the people nearby that his father is the current Prime Minister." Shi Feng said with nonchalance.

"Damn it, it really is him!" Long Chen cursed inwardly, feeling as if his head was about to explode. This was indeed someone who attracted trouble wherever he went; he had just slaughtered an entire power in Moon City, and now he had entered the Imperial City and crippled the Prime Minister’s son’s manhood. At this rate, wouldn’t he dare to strike even my own father, the Holy Emperor?

"Alright, alright." Long Chen waved to the golden-armored guard, "Go tell Zhao Qian that I will come out to meet him in person shortly."

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the golden-armored guard walked out of the hall. Having listened to Shi Feng’s words, he felt even more astonished; shattering the Dantian of a Martial King, crippling the son of the Prime Minister.

Thinking of this, the guard glanced at his abdomen and down at his own private area, realizing he was the same one who had been knocked out by Shi Feng outside the mansion. Luckily, Shi Feng had not been ruthless with him; even the Dantian of a Martial King could be shattered, no wonder he was no match. Daring to sever the Prime Minister’s son’s manhood, if he’d truly cut off his own, what could he have done?

Thinking this, the guard felt his legs weaken slightly. He was even more relieved that his own parts were still intact.

"Young Master Feng, I’ll go deal with that old thing Zhao Qian — reckon he wouldn’t dare do much to me," Long Chen spoke to Shi Feng.

"Mhm, I’ll go visit my mother," Shi Feng replied, then looked at Zhang Hu standing at the door, "Let Zhang Hu take me there."

"Mhm." Long Chen nodded, then walked out of the living room.

"Young Master Feng, this way, please," Zhang Hu gestured for Shi Feng to follow.

Shi Feng nodded and walked towards Zhang Hu, who then led him to the residence that Long Chen had arranged for Bai Yue’e.

"How has my mother been living here?" Shi Feng asked Zhang Hu.

"Lady has been living very well in the mansion, Young Master Feng needn’t worry," Zhang Hu replied. "Lady often talks about you and your sister; Lord Long Chen personally comforted Lady by saying that Ling’er was taken by a distinguished individual to study at a Great Sect and would return once her studies were complete."

"As for you, Young Master Feng, Lord Long Chen told her that you are doing a great task for his lordship, and once it’s complete, you will come see her."
