I Am Such An Expert; Why Do I Have To Take In Disciples

Chapter 184: Ji Wushang’s Plan

“It’s none of your business. Go back to your room.”

The old king berated, but the Grand Imperial Sire, Ji Shangrong, looked at the other party with interest. His eyes flickered with a green light, as if he had discovered a prey.

“Hehehehehe… If I’m not wrong, this is Ji Wushang, right? Indeed, heroes come from youth. At such a young age, he has already reached the Creation Realm. Even at my age back then, with the resources of the Imperial Family, I was unable to reach this level.

“Seventh Brother, you’re so lucky to have such a monstrous grandson. ”

Hearing this, both Ji Wushang’s expression and the expressions of the others present instantly changed slightly.

Everyone was not stupid. Hearing this, if they still could not guess the other party’s identity, they could forget about living.

The person in front of him was none other than the Grand Imperial Sire, Ji Shangrong.

An Emperor Realm expert!

Moreover, he was not like the ordinary Emperor Realm experts of the various imperial palaces. Instead, he was a late-stage Emperor Realm expert!

Thinking of this, everyone naturally thought of why he had come here.

He wanted to kill Ji Wushang!

Ji Wushang was about to fight the Crown Prince Ji Tianming tomorrow. According to the cultivation the two of them had displayed at this moment, if nothing unexpected happened, Ji Wushang had a 99% chance of winning.

Therefore, it was almost certain that the current Ji Wushang would become the crown prince of the Great Zhou.

How could the current Imperial Family tolerate this?

The old king said coldly, “Ji Shangrong, you’re not welcome here. Leave quickly. Otherwise, don’t blame me for being rude.”

The Grand Imperial Sire chuckled and took a step. An astral wind directly spread out. Then, with lightning speed, he directly sent several people flying on the spot.

“Ah!”

Screams sounded one after another, but no one in the Purple Peace Imperial Palace dared to resist. Or rather, no one dared to go against him.

After all, he was an Emperor Realm expert.

“Why don’t you let me experience your rudeness?”

“You’re courting death!”

The old king spat out his cold voice. Then, with a soft shout, his body instantly rushed in front of the other party and suddenly punched.

The Grand Imperial Sire was clearly not someone to be trifled with. He stood on the spot and also threw a punch to resist the old king’s punch.

Boom!

The two fists collided, causing a huge explosion in the air.

According to the normal explosion rules, the main explosion should come from the center of the two of them. After all, the two of them had already spread their spirit energy aura. Their energy auras were basically like two small mountains that were set up to resist the shock wave from the explosion.

However, unfortunately, Ji Shangrong’s strength clearly surpassed the old king’s. Therefore, after exchanging fists with Ji Shangrong, the old king’s body could not help but retreat several steps. With every step, a huge pit appeared in the ground. At the same time, spiderweb-like cracks quickly spread in all directions.

“Hehehehe… Seventh Brother, looks like you haven’t been cultivating well enough these years.”

The Grand Imperial Sire smiled spuriously, and his eyes even revealed a proud and disdainful expression.

It was as if the old king was inferior to him.

“Father!”

King Zining immediately rushed over, his face filled with seriousness and anxiety.

“Father, what’s going on? Why is the Grand Imperial Sire here?”

The old king snorted.

“Nonsense, of course I’m here to kill Wushang. Otherwise, would he have come to discuss life with us in the middle of the night?”

“What?”

King Zining’s expression immediately turned ugly.

“Grand Imperial Sire, aren’t you afraid that the elders will blame you for doing this? Aren’t you afraid that you won’t be able to bear the consequences?”

Ji Shangrong smiled calmly.

“Bear the consequences? Who do you think is going to punish me? You? Or those people who only know how to sit idly by?”

After a pause, he continued, “I don’t want to find too much trouble. Hand Ji Wushang over. I guarantee that I will definitely not harm the Purple Peace Imperial Palace in the future. Otherwise… if anyone dies tonight, don’t put the blame on me.”

The old king spat.

“Stop pretending here. I admit that your cultivation level is higher than mine. However, don’t forget that this is the Imperial City. There’s an Elder Group here. This matter is not up to your Imperial Family to decide.”

He knew better than anyone why the Grand Imperial Sire, Ji Shangrong, was doing this. His goal was to protect Ji Tianming and create a path to the heavens for him.

Even if he really killed Ji Wushang and violated the rules of the Great Zhou Imperial Family, he would not be killed. At most, he would only be punished severely.

The Great Zhou Imperial Family would not be stupid enough to kill another Emperor Realm expert after another expert has been killed. That would be no different from cutting off the right hand of the Imperial Family.

As long as Ji Wushang died and no one fought with Ji Tianming for the crown prince position, it would be fine.

Moreover, in the future, once Ji Tianming became the emperor, he would receive even more resources. In the future, when he sat on the throne, he would cultivate to the Emperor Realm to ensure that the current Imperial Family bloodline could be passed on.

However, the more the other party wanted to take the risk to kill Ji Wushang, the more the old king wanted to protect Ji Wushang.

This meant that the position of the emperor above was just that alluring.

It was so alluring that the Grand Imperial Sire did not hesitate to risk his life!

“In that case, there’s nothing to discuss.”

The Grand Imperial Sire smiled coldly and stomped his foot. His body immediately turned into a stream of light and instantly disappeared from his spot.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of the old king.

“Not good!”

The old king hurriedly threw a move to resist the Grand Imperial Sire. The two of them were both forced back. The Grand Imperial Sire only retreated a few steps, but the old king was forced back dozens of steps. His face was even red, and his blood surged violently, almost unable to help but cough.

He was not stupid and knew that he was not Ji Shangrong’s match.

“Zining, quickly bring Wushang to the Great Zhou Imperial Mausoleum. There are members of the Elder Group there. As long as he gets there and has the Elder Group holding the fort, no matter how bold this guy is, he won’t dare to injure Wushang at all.”

“That’s not possible. When I first arrived, I discovered that the array formation of the Imperial Palace had already been activated. No one can leave.”

The old king’s pupils constricted. He had already guessed that it was the Emperor of the Great Zhou who did this!

The Great Zhou Emperor controlled all the array formations in the entire Imperial City. Only he was able to remotely control the array formations of the imperial palaces. Moreover, they would be unable to undo them from the imperial palaces.

Ji Shangrong smiled.

“Are you very surprised? Do you think I would have come directly if I didn’t have a plan? After all, this is the Imperial City. If anything happens, the Elder Group will discover it.”

“Despicable!”

The old king spat and was filled with contempt. However, it also made him covet that position even more.

He had to obtain the throne!

“Zining, go and protect Wushang. No matter what, we can’t let anything happen to him. Even if the Purple Peace Imperial Palace has already been sealed by the array formation, the Elder Group will still discover something abnormal over time. We just have to hold on for a while.”

“Yes!”

King Zining immediately turned around to protect his son.

“It’s useless. Since I’ve come here, I’m naturally already prepared. Today, I definitely have to kill Ji Wushang!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he waved his right hand and summoned a long sword with a dragon mark on it.

The moment he saw the sword, the old king’s pupils suddenly constricted.

It was one of the five Martial Monarch Realm weapons left behind by the Founding Emperor of the Great Zhou. It was the Mad Dragon Sword.

The other party’s cultivation was originally above his. Now that the other party was wielding the Mad Dragon Sword, the old king was afraid that he would really be doomed this time.

However, even so, he still had to protect Ji Wushang with his life. He had to protect the Purple Peace Imperial Palace and his descendants.

To him, obtaining the throne was more important than his life.

Even if he was already an Emperor Realm expert!

Just as King Zining retreated to the other courtyards and arrived beside his son, a dazzling light erupted from his back. Then, a storm surged as a shock wave spread crazily.

Originally, if the shock wave spread in all directions, the force would have been a little weaker. However, because the entire Imperial Palace was surrounded by the array formation, the shock wave was contained.

Therefore, after the shock wave encountered the array formation, it would bounce back and not a trace of aura would be able to escape.

This was also why the Grand Imperial Sire had his son, the Great Zhou Emperor, activate the array formation of the Purple Peace Imperial Palace.

He had done this to prevent this matter from being discovered. He wanted to completely destroy the Purple Peace Imperial Palace and kill Ji Wushang without anyone knowing.

The violent wind was wanton and the powerful shock wave even made King Zining, a King Realm expert, unable to resist. His body shook incessantly in the storm. He could only grit his teeth and endure. The spirit energy in his body flowed crazily, and the circulation speed of his cultivation technique reached the peak.

Emperor Realm experts were simply too terrifying!

Just the shock wave from the battle alone was already too much for King Zining to endure.

Of course, the main reason was that he was standing too close!

At such a close distance, the fluctuation was basically at its strongest. It was already very lucky for him to not vomit blood.

As a King Realm expert, it was already somewhat difficult for King Zining to resist, let alone the others from the Purple Peace Imperial Palace.

Many people with low cultivation were swept into ashes by the shock wave on the spot, not even leaving behind a trace of blood.

As for the buildings, they were directly destroyed by the battle between the two Emperor Realm experts.

Ji Wushang looked forward from his father’s side. The two Emperor Realm experts were so fast that their figures could no longer be seen.

However, he could sense that his grandfather was currently at a disadvantage.

They could not just continue to wait like this. The Grand Imperial Sire was too powerful. If this continued, the Purple Peace Imperial Palace would not be able to last until help arrived.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth as if he had made an important decision.

“Father, bring me to my sister’s courtyard immediately. Quick!”

“Ah?”
