Chapter 508: Chapter 507: She Said, Prince Xuan is Here?

War was on the verge of breaking out.

In just a short two days, Jicheng, not far from Dragon City, had been conquered by Chu Qianli’s forces!

Chu Qianli, who had somehow found the Jade Seal, now proclaimed to the world with it in hand that she was the daughter of Long Xiyue.

With the Jade Seal and Long Xiyue’s Token, as well as the backing of Wei Xian who had re-entered the royal court, who among the generals and ministers loyal to the late emperor would not be convinced?

Chu Qianli’s army was unstoppable, and the way things were going, it likely wouldn’t be long before they could march directly on Dragon City.

What Long Tianliu couldn’t understand was why his own battle-hardened army was so easily defeated.

"Your Majesty, there is a general wearing a mask within their ranks; he is like a killing god, single-handedly slaying several of our great generals and hundreds of our brothers," reported a guard.

"Now, upon hearing the name of General Asura, everyone is stricken with terror, and the gates of Jicheng were even opened willingly for him! Our soldiers surrendered!"

The deputy general who came back to report was still trembling as he mentioned the four characters General Asura.

Long Tianliu glared at him, infuriated, "A mere local general has frightened you to this extent!"

"Your Majesty is unaware; General Asura is truly formidable. His martial arts are peerless, his command of troops is godlike; with a single slash, our brothers... our brothers can fall by the dozen."

Although he hadn’t witnessed the scene himself, the account given by the returning scout was terrifying!

Just hearing about it filled him with dread.

The deputy general said with a trembling voice, "My, my brothers say he... he is not human; he, he is a god, the Asura War God..."

"Nonsense!" Long Tianliu slammed his palm onto the armrest of the Dragon Throne with a snap.

If she had not restrained her fury, the armrest would have been shattered by her blow.

Even without breaking, a crack had appeared.

It looked frightening indeed!

Guard Commander Chang Ming hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, calm your anger!"

Looking down, he saw the deputy general still shivering; disgruntled, Chang Ming said, "As a commanding officer, you spread rumors and disrupt our army’s morale, a most heinous crime!"

With a wave of his hand, he ordered furiously, "Guards! Drag him out and behead him!"

"Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty!"

After the death of Anshang Palace, Chang Ming had become the person His Majesty trusted the most.

At Chang Ming’s command, the guards immediately rushed in and dragged the deputy general out of the hall.

At first, the deputy general kept begging for mercy, but Long Tianliu and Chang Ming paid him no attention.

Once he was dragged outside the hall, the deputy general began to shout in despair, "He truly is the War God, the Asura War God! The Asura War God is coming to kill our soldiers; Longteng is doomed, Longteng is going to fall..."

Eventually, the deputy general’s cries were no longer heard.

Long Tianliu was so angry she nearly spat blood!

What Asura War God – why was there such a person in Chu Qianli’s army?

"Your Majesty, don’t listen to his nonsense. We just lost a few battles because our army was careless!" Chang Ming, fearing she might become too angry and harm her health, advised, "Tomorrow, I will reorganize the Royal Army and lead them into battle myself."

"No! You stay in Dragon City."

"Your Majesty..." Chang Ming was somewhat stunned.

Did His Majesty even believe that such an insignificant army could reach Dragon City?

Dragon City was as impregnable as a fortified wall; on what basis could they attack?

Long Tianliu waved her hand, her headache worsening.

Outside, a Palace Attendant suddenly burst in: "Your Majesty, a girl from Beiming Country wishes to see you."

"Not seeing anyone," Long Tianliu said, immensely irritated. What girl, and to what purpose?

But, from Beiming Country?

At this moment, Longteng was engulfed in the flames of war, which might soon reach Dragon City, and there was still a girl from another country seeking her out?

"Your Majesty, the girl says that Prince Yexuan has arrived; she has come to tell you where Prince Yexuan is now."

"What?" Feng Yexuan has come? Where is he?

At this moment, who was approaching, friend or foe?

No, he had once been married to Chu Qianli, and it was said that even after their separation, they remained emotionally connected.

Could it be, was he coming to help Chu Qianli attack her Dragon City?

With the pressure already so great, if even Yexuan, the Prince, were to become her enemy, could this Dragon City still be defended?

"Summon her in!" Long Tianliu hurriedly instructed.

Although he didn’t know who or what their origins were, anything related to Feng Yexuan warranted serious attention.

Before long, a graceful figure appeared in the hall.

Accompanying her was a man whose face was half-destroyed.

Despite half of his face being disfigured, if one disregarded that, his tall stature was absolutely top-notch.

Long Tianliu narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing the two individuals.

The woman had a smile on her face, but her eyes hid too many thoughts, indicating a deep and cunning mind.

Her martial arts skills were also unequivocally strong.

As for the man... a supreme master.

"Who are you?" As the pair approached the center of the hall, Chang Ming immediately asked.

The lady, however, didn’t even glance at him, her smiling yet sharp gaze fixed intently on Long Tianliu.

"I am the sole direct disciple of Mr. Wu Chenzi, Yu Linglong."

"You are the disciple of Mr. Wu Chenzi?" Long Tianliu’s heart tightened, and some memories flashed through his mind.

He had met Wu Chenzi once in his youth, an encounter that was unforgettable.

It was as if he had met an immortal.

But rumors of him had vanished from the martial world, and for more than a decade now, it was as if he had completely disappeared, with no more legends about him passed down.

So, the tales about Wu Chenzi were all from over a decade ago.

Some said he died in a secluded place due to the practice of some forbidden technique that drove him mad.

Others said he had grown tired of the dangers of the martial world and had found a utopia to live in seclusion, cut off from the rest of the world.

No one knew the truth.

Yet, Long Tianliu had never heard of Wu Chenzi having a disciple.

"How can you prove this?"

"I do not need to prove it; in all of Beiming Country, everyone knows I am Wu Chenzi’s student."

"Mr. Wu Chenzi has never publicly claimed to have taken any disciples." Over the years, many had falsely claimed to be his students, but Long Tianliu knew they were all impostors.

Faced with her challenge, Yu Linglong replied with a laugh, not in anger, "Then, I shall demonstrate to Your Majesty, shall I?"

"How will you demonstrate?" Long Tianliu was not very convinced.

Wu Chenzi was known for his medical and poisonous insect techniques, but these were not things one could simply showcase on a whim.

Yu Linglong said with a smile, "Although my master is famous for his medical and poisonous insect techniques, he actually practiced a certain skill unknown to outsiders."

Long Tianliu grew curious, "What skill?"

Yu Linglong smiled lightly, slowly raising her sleeve to cover her face.

Chang Ming became apprehensive, his hand touching the hilt of his sword, ready to protect his sovereign.

But Long Tianliu coldly said, "You’re no match for her companion beside her, stand down, don’t embarrass me."

Chang Ming’s face flushed with embarrassment, and he immediately let go of his sword.

The man beside Yu Linglong had remained silent since entering, but both the emperor and he could see clearly.

This man, was anything but ordinary!

It wasn’t long before Yu Linglong lowered the sleeve from her face.

When Long Tianliu and Chang Ming saw her, they were immediately stunned.
