Chapter 349: Chapter 350: A Powerful Dragon Cannot Repress a Local Snake? (5th Update) (Please Subscribe!!!)

"Is not Lord Chu the Great Commander of the Qin Emperor’s Legion? How could he be a spy? Withdraw immediately."

Prince Xue Sha, seeing the change in Chu Fengmian’s expression, shouted loudly at the soldier.

However, after hearing Prince Xue Sha’s words, the soldier’s face showed no change. With a stern face, he said righteously,

"According to the law, even a Great Commander must kneel and pay respects upon seeing a member of the royal family. Does not Prince Xue Sha understand this principle?"

"This man now refuses to pay respects and has committed a grave offense! He is further persisting in his delusion! The law is sacred and must not be defiled! Today we are to take him to the Hall of Criminal Justice to face trial!"

The soldier looked at Chu Fengmian and shouted loudly.

"Someone seize him! If he resists, kill him without mercy!"

Several soldiers rushed forward, their faces fierce and their bodies robust, each holding chains to bind Chu Fengmian.

These chains, radiating cold air, were forged from Xuan Cold True Iron and once bound, even ordinary saints would struggle to break free.

"Bind him!"

At the soldier’s command, countless soldiers immediately took the chains and started binding Chu Fengmian.

"Scram!"

Chu Fengmian frowned, his eyes flashing with anger.

He had not shown his power, and they indeed thought him an easy target.

From Chu Fengmian’s body, a massive surge of Spiritual Power suddenly gathered and exploded. In an instant, the chains around him shattered.

These chains, which even ordinary saints could not break, were incredibly fragile before Chu Fengmian, effortlessly broken with a mere flick of his wrist.

"How audacious! To dare resist! Strike together and suppress him!"

Seeing Chu Fengmian break free, the soldiers looked at each other and suddenly attacked.

Countless martial techniques were launched at Chu Fengmian.

"Seeking death?"

Chu Fengmian’s eyebrows twitched; he was truly enraged.

He did not wish to bother with these insects, but their daring to attack him had crossed Chu Fengmian’s line.

"Die, all of you!"

Chu Fengmian waved his hand, and infinite Spiritual Power violently blasted forward, shaking the surrounding space. Booming, it struck the soldiers surrounding him.

This sudden attack surprised the Prince greatly; he had not expected Chu Fengmian to dare act so unrestrained in the royal city.

His gaze shifted, and beside him, the elder, Prince Tai Dou, suddenly moved.

A huge hand reached out, suddenly grabbing and neutralizing Chu Fengmian’s Spiritual Power in an instant.

"Great Commander Chu, there’s no need to be so furious. These youngsters were merely following the rules."

Prince Tai Dou looked at Chu Fengmian and slowly spoke.

"They are not wrong; without rules, there is no order. Not to mention that you are just the Great Commander of the Qin Emperor’s Legion with no noble title in the Qin Emperor’s realm. Even if you were elevated in rank, facing a royal family member, you must still kneel and pay your respects."

"I am in charge of the Department of Rites; it is precisely my duty to uphold these ceremonies, Great Commander Chu, best you comply and pay your respects."

Prince Tai Dou looked at Chu Fengmian, speaking coldly.

A display of power.

Indeed, this was a demonstration of power.

Concerning all things related to Chu Fengmian, they were well aware. Chu Fengmian was an external support invited by Princess Tian Yin.

Chu Fengmian had just become the Great Commander of the Qin Emperor’s army and had subdued Shouzhou Ancient City, which greatly expanded his influence, making him a prominent figure.

The Crown Prince, rival to Princess Tian Yin, had come with her today to put Chu Fengmian in his place, intending to teach him a lesson.

They planned to use their royal status to pressure Chu Fengmian into kneeling before them.

Though such a ritual wasn’t considered important by the saints, legally, they were doing nothing wrong.

This was Chu Fengmian’s first visit to the imperial city, making him a complete outsider. These local bullies didn’t believe Chu Fengmian would dare defy them.

They were determined to show him his place.

"Kneel and show respect?"

Chu Fengmian looked at the Great Prince with a hint of mockery in his eyes.

In this world, there was no one Chu Fengmian felt compelled to kneel to.

The only people Chu Fengmian had ever knelt before were his Sword Dao Master and his mentor; everyone else was unworthy.

"Exactly! Rules are rules, and if Mr. Chu doesn’t wish to comply, then he shall have to visit the Hall of Punishment today," the Great Prince laughed.

"I will personally escort you to the Hall of Punishment."

"A wise man does not eat the loss before his eyes, and one should drink the toast rather than be forced to drink the forfeit. Great Commander Chu, ancestral laws must not be defied, and if you do not kneel today, things will get difficult," said the Crown Prince with a cold sneer.

Hearing their words, Chu Fengmian’s expression turned even colder.

As Xue Sha, the Blood Prince, was about to say something to intervene, he found himself at a loss for words, sensing the furious authority emanating from Chu Fengmian.

"To think that such fools also exist within the royal family of the Qin Empire," Chu Fengmian’s tone was less angry and more icy.

An icy cold with a murderous intent.

"Damn you! You dare insult a member of the royal family, which only adds to your crimes! Even if you kneel now, it would not absolve your sins! You must surrender all your wealth and become a slave to the royal family to spare your life!" the Great Prince thundered furiously.

Fool.

He was the Great Prince, one of the most influential people in the Qin Empire, and never had he been called a fool.

"Giving face and not wanting face, old man, do you think I don’t retaliate because I fear you? An old fool daring to oppose me? Aren’t you the Great Prince? Then today, I shall kill you, the Great Prince!"

Chu Fengmian snorted coldly and suddenly took action.

A mighty dragon does not oppress the local snake? Taking advantage of one’s power? Wanting Chu Fengmian to retreat and kneel?

Ridiculous.

Since when had Chu Fengmian ever been afraid of such threats?

Let alone a Great Prince, even if the Emperor of the Qin Empire himself were to provoke Chu Fengmian today, he would only meet his demise.

Did this Great Prince really think Chu Fengmian would fear the royal family of the Qin Empire or that he could intimidate Chu Fengmian?

It seemed Chu Fengmian’s patience had only emboldened others, but today, Chu Fengmian would endure no more.

Without showing strength, these people really thought Chu Fengmian could be easily manipulated.

"If you seek death now, then I shall grant it!"

As Chu Fengmian spoke, he suddenly made his move; his right hand transformed into a colossal dragon claw, carrying an ancient aura, and suddenly attacked the Great Prince.
