Chapter 467: Young Lord!

Chapter 467: Chapter 467: Young Lord!

After bidding farewell to the three members of the Chu Family, Shi Feng and the Kirin King hastened their journey and soon returned to East Brilliance City, which was the closest city to the Death Forbidden Land.

They then traveled through the Space Transmission Array, and quickly, both Shi Feng had returned to the Imperial City of the Yunlai Empire!

However, once they arrived in the Imperial City, Shi Feng felt that something was amiss. The Golden-armored Guards that used to patrol near the Space Transmission Array were nowhere to be seen.

And not only were the Golden-armored Guards missing, but the usually bustling place was devoid of people entirely, as if everyone had vanished in an instant.

"Young Master Feng, something isn’t right!" The Kirin King said as he observed the surroundings of the Transmission Altar, sensing the strangeness.

"Young Master Feng, look!" Following that, the Kirin King stretched out his hand, pointing towards the void where hundreds of white tigers with white fur were floating in the sky, emitting strong auras from their bodies.

The realms of these White Tiger Demon Beasts were all in the Seventh-stage Venerable!

This was equivalent to hundreds of Martial Venerable Realm powerhouses floating in the sky above the Imperial City.

"Young Master Feng, it’s not just that these white tigers are powerful, but even the martial artists on the backs of these white tigers are also Martial Venerable Realm powerhouses, heavens, what kind of force is this!" The Kirin King exclaimed in shock, as each one of those Seventh-stage Venerable-Level White Tigers carried Martial Artists clad in green-colored Battle Armor on their backs, each also a Seventh-stage Martial Venerable Realm powerhouse!

"What exactly is going on!" Shi Feng frowned as he gazed into the sky.

A power that uses Seventh-stage white tigers as mounts and Martial Venerable powerhouses as guards must certainly be a formidable force on the Tianheng Continent. Why would such a force come to such a small corner of the Eastern Domain!

When things go abnormal, there must be something amiss. Why exactly had they come here?

"Let’s go to the Imperial Palace to check!" Shi Feng told the Kirin King, swiftly moving towards the palace.

"Who are you!" Just then, an angry shout came from the void, followed closely by a roar from one of the white tigers in the void. The tiger rapidly descended toward the ground, soon blocking the path of Shi Feng and the Kirin King.

Atop the white tiger, a Green-armored War General holding a long spear pointed the tip at Shi Feng and the Kirin King. With a cold demeanor, he sternly shouted, "Who are you! If you dare to move even an inch further, this seat will show no mercy!"

Shi Feng and the Kirin King noticed that this Green-armored War General was an Eight-star Martial Venerate, and there were several more like him in the void.

The Kirin King, fearful that his companion who feared neither Heaven nor Earth would say something to provoke this formidable figure amidst the celestial demon beasts and Venerable powerhouses, and aware that if truly angered, their combined might could obliterate both of them and reduce the thousands of years established Imperial City to ruins.

The Kirin King hastily spoke first, humbly saying, "Esteemed General, I am Zi Tian, the Kirin King of this Yunlai Empire, and this is the War God of our Yunlai Empire, Shi Feng. We are unaware of the reasons those formidable ones have descended upon our Yunlai Empire."

"War God of Yunlai Empire!" Hearing the Kirin King’s words, the Green-armored War General looked at Shi Feng with disdain and mockery, laughing scornfully, "A Three-star Martial Venerable being called a War God? Then what should I be considered in such a small empire as yours!"

"Ha ha ha ha ha!" The words of the Green-armored Battle General were met with a barrage of laughter from the void.

Shi Feng’s brows furrowed slightly, and his face grew even colder.

Then, the Green-armored Soldiers showed an impatient look and said to Shi Feng and the Kirin King, "Both of you leave quickly. We disdain to kill a single person from the Yunlai Empire. We haven’t laid a hand on anyone; they were merely driven outside the city. Once we leave, you can return. We disdain to occupy such a place."

Shi Feng wanted to speak, but seeing this, the Kirin King quickly tugged at Shi Feng’s sleeve and whispered, "Young Master Feng, things are unclear. Let’s head outside the city first. From what he says, Emperor Long Chen should also be outside. Let’s go and find out what exactly happened."

After hearing the Kirin King’s words, Shi Feng said nothing and nodded.

"Thank you, General, for the information!" The Kirin King politely clasped his fists toward the Green-armored Battle General, and then he and Shi Feng flew towards the outskirts of the Imperial City.

Just outside the city, the outskirts were filled with people, dense as ants, extending toward the endless horizon.

As the Green-armored Battle General had said, they had driven everyone from the Imperial City, whether citizens, martial artists, civil and military officials, even Emperor Long Chen, out of the city.

Shi Feng and the Kirin King arrived outside the North City Gate, where they saw a dense crowd of Imperial City residents, but none of the officials or city guards were in sight.

Then, Shi Feng and the Kirin King moved again, flying towards the Imperial City East Gate, and from a distance, they saw a sea of golden, dense Golden Armor—the soldiers of the Yunlai Empire.

In the center of these Golden-armored Soldiers, Shi Feng saw a crowd protected by guards; these were the civil and military officials of the Yunlai Empire, and among them was Emperor Long Chen.

Then, Shi Feng and the Kirin King landed among these people.

"Long Chen, what exactly is happening?" As soon as he was in the crowd, Shi Feng asked.

At that moment, the crowd’s gazes converged on Shi Feng, and immediately a unified shout arose, "Greet the War God!"

"Greet the War God!"

"Enough!" Shi Feng, impatient, waved his hand and said, "Enough, enough. Don’t bother me, all of you. What exactly happened in the Imperial City? Where do these people come from, and why are they here?"

"Young Master Feng, you’re finally back!" Emperor Long Chen, wearing a nine-clawed golden dragon robe, immediately spoke upon seeing Shi Feng, "That power, they came for Ling’er!"

"For Ling’er?" Hearing Emperor Long Chen’s words, Shi Feng was shocked and quickly asked, "Clarify your words. Who are they? Why did they come for Ling’er, and where is Ling’er now? Where is my mother?"

"Young Master Feng, please calm down a bit. The Empress is resting in that golden carriage behind me." Emperor Long Chen said and then turned and pointed to a golden carriage parked behind him.

Then, Emperor Long Chen turned back to Shi Feng and continued, "Ling’er is currently still in the Imperial Palace, but they seem to bear no ill will toward her, as they refer to her as ’Ling’er sister,’ ’Young Lord.’"
