The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor
Chapter 658 - 657: Coward

Chapter 658: Chapter 657: Coward

At that moment, the expressions on everyone’s faces darkened.

This Ye Xuan, had actually made a move to kill as soon as he arrived, was this a demonstration to intimidate them?

Suddenly, the entire place once again fell into a deathly silence.

The people present had not expected that after Ye Xuan made his move, the Five Dominators of East Desolation would remain silent and not show themselves.

Everyone thought it was going to end there.

But then Ye Xuan threw back the corpses of the Fierce Battle Saint and others.

And it was clear they all realized that the Fierce Battle Saint and his companions were all dead!

That is to say, Ye Xuan had decided to kill these people upon his arrival!

In this way, today’s events were going to be completely irreconcilable.

"Xiyue..."

The Eighth Prince looked at Dong Xiyue, whose face was pale with barely concealed rage in his eyes.

Dong Xiyue, although only one of his followers, the prince had long planned to take her into his harem, and after he became the Human Emperor, Dong Xiyue was definitely going to be one of the Imperial Concubines.

But now, Dong Xiyue had actually been killed!

For a moment, the Eighth Prince’s inner desire for vengeance knew no bounds.

Despite constantly reminding himself not to be impulsive,

the rage in his chest was telling him to seek revenge!

Long Aotian and others noticed the killing intent from the Eighth Prince, their expressions slightly sinking as they advised, "Eighth Prince, now may not be the best time to take action. After all, no matter how you look at it, the representatives from the Mo family, Ye Family, and even those from the Emperor Immortal Sect who came this time are all very powerful, and there are masters hidden among them. Our original plan was just to test this person, and if we act now, the consequences will be very different."

"Eighth Prince, that Ye Xuan is clearly acquainted with Huang Yue, let’s consider the long-term plan."

Wei Qing and Chang Zuhua also spoke up to persuade him.

In fact, at the time of Ye Xuan’s appearance, they had no intention of making a move against him.

They were actually only planning to test Ye Xuan from the start.

Now that they had forced Ye Xuan out, that was enough.

Moreover,

Huang Yue’s appearance was something none of them had expected.

The people from Mountain God Dao always preferred not to interact with others, a well-known fact in the entire East Desolate.

Yet now, Huang Yue was so close to Ye Xuan.

Nobody knew what the relationship between Huang Yue and Ye Xuan was.

If before, they could disregard the Mo family and openly challenge Ye Xuan,

now that they knew Ye Xuan was connected to the Mountain God Dao, they definitely did not dare to do so.

Why?

Because of the Mountain God Dao.

Just because of these three words.

Among the East Desolate Ten Dominators, the most distant is the Southern Sea Immortal Island, but the one you must not provoke is Mountain God Dao.

East Desolate has three thousand famous mountains.

Every person entering the world from these esteemed mountains will treat each visit as a pilgrimage.

Although Huang Yue is the youngest among those who have entered the world, he is backed by the entire Mountain God Dao.

If he takes action, provoking the appearance of other worldly beings, then East Desolate will undergo drastic changes.

No one can bear the consequences of that.

Even the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty cannot!

This was proven by the Human Emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty long ago.

This is why the Human Emperor of the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty has always been very courteous to the people of the Mountain God Dao.

Let alone an Eighth Prince, even if the Dragon Emperor himself were here, he would have to be extremely polite to Huang Yue.

If Huang Yue hadn’t shown up, they might not have stopped the Eighth Prince from taking action, but with Huang Yue present, they had to restrain the Eighth Prince, lest he did something foolish.

After all, the Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect, the Medicine Pavilion, and the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty were all in the same camp.

"He killed Xiyue." The murderous intent in the Eighth Prince’s voice was astonishing.

Wei Qing and Chang Zuhua slightly raised their eyebrows and no longer tried to persuade him.

Then, it was Long Aotian who continued, "Eighth Prince, I do need to give you some good advice. Why has the Heavenly Dragon Emperor sent you to the Hengduan Mountains and not the other Princes?"

The moment these words were spoken, the Floating Divine Tower fell silent.

Wei Qing couldn’t help but give Long Aotian a surprised look.

He hadn’t expected this proud individual to say such a thing.

This was something many understood, but no one was foolish enough to openly speak of it.

After all, with so many Princes in the Heavenly Dragon Dynasty, the Crown Prince’s position had not yet been determined; wouldn’t speaking like this offend the other Princes?

If it turned out that someone other than the Eighth Prince became the Heavenly Dragon Emperor, Long Aotian might suffer for today’s words.

However, Long Aotian’s words were very effective,

and the Eighth Prince calmed down all at once.

Yes, if he made a mistake today and offended Huang Yue of the Mountain God Dao for Ye Xuan’s sake, it would be a loss that held no benefit, and he might even have to withdraw from the competition for the Crown Prince position ahead of schedule.

Thinking of this, the Eighth Prince said with a pained expression, "Bring their bodies back for a grand burial!"

Within the Divine Tower, a squad of guards appeared out of thin air, taking the bodies of Dong Xiyue and others, and vanished from sight.

"Once I’m within the Hengduan Mountains, I must kill that man." The Eighth Prince’s expression was cold, the murderous intent in his eyes not yet faded.

"You can bear this much?"

Seeing that no one had stepped forward, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but feel amused.

"Heavenly Dragon Dynasty, Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect, Medicine Pavilion, Myriad Artifacts Saint Sect, Six Demon Sect, Long Family, Fierce Battle Sect, Qianyuan Cave Heaven, ..."

"Such a great number of powers, yet not a single one has the spine to stand up?"

Ye Xuan let out a cold laugh and shook the place with his True Qi.

His words resounded directly across the Hengduan Mountains.

Everyone present was able to hear them.

The faces of the individuals from the powers named by Ye Xuan all turned ugly.

"Just as rumors have it, he’s insufferably arrogant," mused the Fierce Sun Saint, sitting cross-legged inside the Floating Divine Tower.

"Saint, why not take action and teach him a lesson?" a disciple from the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect asked, puzzled.

"Teach him a lesson? Did you not see the person standing by his side?" the Fierce Sun Saint said coolly.

"Who is that person?" the disciple from the Fierce Sun Heavenly Sect asked, still confused.

"Mountain God Dao, Huang Yue," the Fierce Sun Saint replied coolly.

As soon as these words were spoken, the others stopped talking, their faces turning pale.

"Don’t be rash in your actions; today was just an appetizer before the curtain rises, the main course hasn’t even begun to be prepared," the Fierce Sun Saint said with a light smile.

The main focus of this event was the Hengduan Mountains.

Today’s actions were just a warmup.

...

Ye Xuan’s voice continued to spread, yet astonishingly, no one dared to respond.

For a moment, the people from the Mo family and the Ye Family began to boast loudly.

"The Five Dominators of East Desolation? They’re all just a bunch of cowards. They used to claim that they wanted to trouble Young Master Ye, so why are they scared now that he is here?"

"Hehehe, just a bunch of loudmouths," they jeered.

This made the people of the Five Dominators of East Desolation even more embarrassed, but because of orders, none dared to strike.

"Huang Yue, tear down all their Floating Divine Towers," Ye Xuan ordered indifferently.

"As you command, senior," Huang Yue responded respectfully.
