Chen, in his mind, had already sealed Xiao Qingmu's fate. Even if a current prince were present, he wouldn't hesitate. Anyone else might have temporarily backed down, taking a slower approach.

But was Chen Yuan just anyone?

With certainty on his side, he wasn't afraid to take a gamble.

The main reason was that Xiao Qingmu was proving to be quite troublesome. If he let her go this time, who knew what greater problems she might cause him.

Chen Yuan wore a righteous expression, while Sima Ke's face was extremely livid. The atmosphere was frozen, emanating a powerful and dangerous aura.

At the same time, the situation here was noticed by Sima Ke's guards. Soon, auras began to spread out, including several Profound Connection martial artists.

And... a Core Realm Grandmaster!

As an unanointed prince, their safety was guarded by royal experts or consorts dispatched from the Clan Affairs Office, at the very least, a Core Realm Grandmaster.

In an instant, the guards within the Fourth Prince's residence quickly gathered, holding weapons and staring warily at Chen Yuan, waiting for Sima Ke's order to swarm forward and attack him.

Xiao Qingmu was still restrained in place by the powerful aura, her eyes filled with extreme fear. She thought of Junior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Gu, and the tragic deaths of dozens of Qingyun disciples outside Qingzhou City.

She felt some regret.

Not regret for opposing Chen Yuan, but regret for appearing directly in front of him. She hadn't expected Chen Yuan's killing intent towards her to be so intense.

He dared to attack her even in the Prince's residence!

Sima Ke's face remained gloomy. He pointed to the guards outside and said to Chen Yuan,

"Chen Qing Envoy, this prince will give you a chance. As long as you release Miss Xiao, this prince can pretend that nothing happened, and we can still be friends.

Otherwise... I'm afraid things won't end well today."

Frankly speaking, it wasn't wise to antagonize a promising young talent like Chen Yuan for the sake of Xiao Qingmu, but things had already reached this point.

If he backed down, he would not only lose the treasure in Xiao Qingmu's hands that he could use to please his imperial father, but he would also suffer a great loss of reputation. The royal family valued face the most.

If he yielded to even a grandmaster subordinate, even if it reached his imperial father's ears, he would be greatly disappointed. The officials and experts he had won over might even greatly lower their opinion of him.

Especially since this was his home turf.

"Opportunity..." Chen Yuan smiled when he heard this. He stared at Sima Ke and said,

"Your Highness is mistaken. It's not Your Highness giving this official a chance, but this official giving Your Highness a chance to repent. Xiao Qingmu is a wanted criminal of the imperial court, wanted by the Qingzhou Sky Survey Division for plotting rebellion. If Your Highness stubbornly persists in this, do you know what the consequences will be? End well... Heh, I'm afraid that even if Your Highness wants to end things well at that time, it won't be possible.

Besides, does Your Highness think that a few Profound Connection experts plus a Solid Core Grandmaster can subdue this official? Your Highness was also present when this official fought with Yang Yuanqing.

Don't you have any considerations in your heart?"

The reason why Chen Yuan was talking so much nonsense was actually because he was afraid of Sima Ke, not of his strength, but of his status. No matter what, the other party was Jingtai's son, the current prince.

If he killed him openly, it would inevitably cause a huge shock, and he might even have to leave the capital because of it.

Seeing that Sima Ke's gaze was still unmoved, Chen Yuan directly took out a command token from his sleeve and said lightly,

"At this moment, all the Sky Survey Guards of the Eastern Emperor City are waiting outside the Prince's residence. If Your Highness really insists on going your own way, then... today will be a complete disaster.

Chen can at most abandon his official position, and with my reputation and strength, I can still thrive in the Jianghu. Your Highness is different. From then on,

the position of Crown Prince will be further and further away from Your Highness. I believe... the other two princes will be very happy to see this."

He had been prepared for this, wearing his official uniform today for this very moment!

Although the main responsibility of the Imperial City Commander was to guard the imperial city, their identity was still with the Sky Survey Division, and they had the power to execute first and report later!

Sima Ke's pupils shrank, focusing on the command token in Chen Yuan's hand, and said in a condensed voice,

"Chen Qing Envoy came to the banquet with a command token. How impressive!"

"Otherwise, Chen would not feel safe. So... is Your Highness still going to stop me?" Chen Yuan smiled lightly.

Sima Ke stood there, his eyes filled with struggle and hesitation. In the end, reason prevailed over anger. He knew very well that with the current guarding strength of the Prince's residence,

it was not enough to take down Chen Yuan, and they might not even be his opponent.

And outside, there were hundreds of Sky Survey Guards guarding them. Once things got out of hand, his future opportunities would really be slim. It wasn't worth it for a Xiao Qingmu!

Of course, he also understood that today's events would inevitably be impossible to hide.

It would definitely spread, and his face would be greatly discredited!

But he was currently helpless. After taking a deep breath, Sima Ke slowly raised his hand and said coldly,

"Open the road and let Chen Qing Envoy leave!"

"Your Highness has made a wise choice."

Chen Yuan smiled and praised him.

The fact that he could do this proved that Sima Ke wasn't a waste, and that he was still somewhat scheming. But this was also normal. How could a prince cultivated by the royal family be brainless?

After saying this, Chen Yuan was about to leave with Xiao Qingmu, but before he could make any movements, a sword cry gently resounded in everyone's ears.

"Want to take Xiao Shizhi away? Have you asked for Liu's opinion?"

A hoarse voice slowly came out.

Sima Ke's eyes narrowed, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Next, it had nothing to do with him.

Then, a figure slowly descended from the void. The person was dressed in green, with a cold face, two strands of long hair scattered down, and some light stubble on his chin.

A Core Realm aura emanated from his body.

Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly turned to Sima Ke, but he said,

"This is Miss Xiao's Shishu, who has been cultivating in the capital. It has nothing to do with this prince."

Even if it was related, he would say it wasn't. This person was a conscript in his Prince's residence, and it was because of him that Xiao Qingmu was connected to Sima Ke.

"Chen Yuan, release Xiao Shizhi, and I will let you leave safely."

A flash of green light subconsciously flashed in Chen Yuan's eyes. The Heavenly Eye Technique was activated. A strong green light emanated from his body. A child of destiny.

Here we go again!

It was about the same as his previous expectations. This Xiao Qingmu was indeed not that simple. A Qingyun Sword Sect actually contributed so many children of destiny to him.

He really had a destiny with them.

"What if I don't release her?"

"If you don't release her, don't even think about leaving today." The man surnamed Liu threatened.

Sima Ke suddenly stood up and said,

"This matter has nothing to do with this prince. If you want to fight, go outside. Today, this prince will give Qing Envoy face and will not interfere in Miss Xiao's matter, but Qing Envoy should not make things difficult for this prince, how about it?"

If Chen Yuan died or fought here, the Sky Survey Guards outside would still rush in. He didn't want things to get out of hand.

It was better to fight outside.

As for who won and who lost, it had nothing to do with him.

If Chen Yuan died, it was because of his lack of strength. Even if it angered some of the people behind him, they couldn't blame him.

Chen Yuan waved his hand:

"No need, it's not so troublesome to deal with a Core Realm Grandmaster."

After saying this, without waiting for everyone to react, in an instant, a grand aura burst out, and a violent and ferocious aura instantly enveloped the green-robed man.

The man didn't seem to expect Chen Yuan to move so quickly, and he quickly retreated, and one after another invisible sword energy rushed towards Chen Yuan.

In response, Chen Yuan just punched out, instantly making a burst of explosions, and then, before the man could make any reaction, the Void Core frantically vented.

Within the flesh, one after another tiger and leopard thundering sound resounded.

"Die!"

This blow was almost Chen Yuan's full blow, instantly straight into the sky.

The green-robed swordsman's body-protecting sword energy instantly shattered, and the blade directly crossed his body, looking at this scene in disbelief, and falling from the void with a bang.

Only the remaining half of his body slammed down heavily.

The field was suddenly silent, and everyone was stunned.

It seemed that they didn't expect this scene at all. The confrontation... ended so quickly?

This was a real Core Realm Grandmaster!

The smile on the Fourth Prince's face also froze in place, staring blankly at the green-robed man who was only left with half of his body, and then his eyes suddenly turned to Chen Yuan.

He knew that Chen Yuan was very strong, after all, he was able to defeat the veteran Solid Core Grandmaster Yang Yuanqing, but he never expected that this person would be so strong!

Completely beyond his expectations!

He thought that even if Chen Yuan could win, he should at least fight a hard battle, and would not simply solve the Liu Grandmaster with a single knife.

"Shua!"

Chen Yuan slowly put the Emperor Slaying Saber back into its sheath, walked forward step by step, looked down at the dying green-robed man, and said lightly:

"Is that all?"

"Hehe..."

The grandmaster on the ground, with the grandmaster's powerful vitality, even if he was cut in half, still did not die immediately, but his eyes had gradually become turbid.

Not far from death....

That knife seemed to be only one knife, but in fact it gathered most of Chen Yuan's strength, and it was normal to kill a Solid Core Realm Grandmaster with a sudden burst.

In Xiao Qingmu's eyes, who was imprisoned in place, there was also shock and despair.

If Uncle Liu died, the Qingyun Sword Sect would almost really be destroyed!

With a wave of his hand, a powerful invisible energy instantly completely wiped out the vitality of this Liu surnamed Grandmaster, and a green aura, like countless times before, slowly poured into the Destiny Altar.

Then, a new opportunity guidance appeared in Chen Yuan's heart.

"There is a temple named Qingyun in the east of the city. The ancestral hall contains the universe. A hundred years of time condense immortal dew, wash away the lead and refine the golden body!"

Chen Yuan opened his eyes, a flash of light flashed in his eyes.

Immortal dew, golden body!

Could it be....

This time's opportunity is to let him break through the physical body's 'Indestructible Vajra' realm?

Thinking about this idea in his heart, Chen Yuan turned to the Fourth Prince Sima Ke with a calm expression, and said:

"Thank you Fourth Highness today, not only did you help me catch a rebellious rebel, but you also led out a grandmaster. Chen is right to come here this time."

Sima Ke gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile:

"It's nothing, it's my duty to help the Sky Survey Division arrest wanted criminals, Chen Qing Envoy is being polite."

"It's getting late, I won't stay any longer."

Saying that, Chen Yuan was about to take Xiao Qingmu away.

"Wait a minute..."

Suddenly, Sima Ke stopped Chen Yuan again, he stopped his footsteps, his face finally had some impatience, and said lightly:

"What else does the Fourth Highness want to say?"

"This prince still has a word to ask Miss Xiao, Qing Envoy won't be so unreasonable, right?"

"She is now a wanted criminal of the imperial court, Your Highness has too deep contact, don't cause trouble for yourself."

Sima Ke snorted lightly, slowly walked forward, and stared at Xiao Qingmu and transmitted his voice:

"Where exactly is that thing you said hidden? If I get it and offer it to my father, there may be room for maneuver."

Xiao Qingmu's eyes were already full of despair, knowing that Sima Ke just wanted to get something for nothing, and then smiled lightly and transmitted his voice:

"It's hidden on me, dare Your Highness keep me?"

"You...."

Sima Ke squinted his eyes, showing a dangerous look.

"If you don't say it, there will really only be a dead end."

"Isn't it the same now? I really misjudged you, you can't even stop an foreign official, your reputation as the Fourth Prince will be famous in the capital in the next few days."

"Bitch, you're courting death!"

Seeing the two communicating with voice transmission, Chen Yuan said in a deep voice:

"Let's stop here, if Your Highness still wants to ask something, come to the Sky Prison, maybe Xiao Qingmu can live to that time."

After saying that, a powerful energy directly wrapped Xiao Qingmu, and slowly left the hall. Looking at Chen Yuan's leaving back, Sima Ke said in a condensed voice:

"Chen Qing Envoy, I have remembered today's affairs."

"Then Your Highness should remember it well, no need to thank Chen for picking out the traitorous officials around you." Chen Yuan said lightly.

Chen Yuan left with Xiao Qingmu, and the guards of the Fourth Prince's Mansion immediately opened a road, and no one dared to stop him any more. The leading Core Realm Grandmaster stared at Chen Yuan deeply, and did not dare to show any hostility.

At the moment when Chen Yuan made his move just now, he also felt a dangerous aura of death rushing to his heart, he thought that he would never be able to stop that terrible knife.

Chen Yuan left the Fourth Prince's Mansion safely, and from beginning to end, Sima Ke had been watching his back, but he did not stop him, he knew,

Chen Yuan's knife just now was not only used to defeat the grandmaster of the Qingyun Sword Sect, but also to deter him, just to tell him,

be honest if you don't want to die.

Otherwise, he can do anything, and the guards of the Prince's Mansion seem to be numerous, but how many knives can they stop from him?

Although he suppressed his impulse, the anger in Sima Ke's eyes did not extinguish, Chen Yuan repeatedly slapped him in the face today,

If he doesn't take revenge, it will be difficult for him to eliminate the hatred in his heart!

......

......

After leaving the Prince's Mansion, Chen Yuan took Xiao Qingmu on the way back, and the Sky Survey Guards of the Imperial City Division did not show up from beginning to end.

In fact, Chen Yuan did make some preparations, but not many, only let Tao Qingyuan guard nearby with dozens of people, if he saw the order arrow, he would quickly surround the Fourth Prince's Mansion.

If he didn't see it, he would pretend that nothing had happened, and patrol as usual....

Now that he has suppressed the Eastern Emperor City Division, Tao Qingyuan is still the only one who can be trusted a little, if he tells others,

I don't know how many people will be watching today.

Even if it was out of face, Sima Ke would not sit idly by and let him leave with Xiao Qingmu, and a greater conflict would inevitably break out, and he was also likely to directly cripple him if he couldn't restrain himself.

Then.....

He could only quickly escape from the capital.

He had no interest in accepting other people's trials, and handing over his fate to other people's hands.

Chen Yuan has always been an active character, everything is for his own growth, even if he rescued the senior Moro he had never met,

The original intention was also to find a bigger backer for himself.

Sixth Realm Immortal!

How terrible is that.....

Inside the Eastern Emperor City Division.

Chen Yuan sat on the first seat with a calm expression, looked down at Xiao Qingmu, untied the restraint on her body, and said lightly:

"I heard that Miss Xiao took some precious treasures from the Qingyun Sword Sect, now hand them over, and I will give you a quick death."

Xiao Qingmu smiled lightly when he heard the words:

"The hatred of killing my father, the hatred of destroying my sect, Chen Yuan, do you think I will give in so easily?"

"What a righteous statement, Xiao Qingmu, don't you really know why the Qingyun Sword Sect has such a feud with me? It's you... who have always been aggressive, and I'm just fighting back.

Your father took three Hua Yang real people to intercept and kill me, shouldn't he die? You deliberately used those brothers and sisters as pawns to attract my attention, are you some innocent person?"

Chen Yuan really didn't understand why this kind of woman always has such an attitude, isn't it that the Qingyun Sword Sect didn't talk about martial arts and bullied the small?

Why has she become the victim instead?

Is there still law?

Is there still reason?

"It's useless to say more, you and I know the right and wrong, and I don't want to waste time saying anything more, you just need to know one thing, sooner or later you will die in the hands of others because of your tyrannical character, I'll be waiting for you below!"

Chen Yuan smiled:

"When your father was cut into pieces by me at the beginning, he also said that to me, it's really passed down in one line, but, do you think I will let you die so easily?"

"My Qingyun secret method is all-encompassing, I have already urged the transformation of the heart technique when I was imprisoned by you, just to prevent you from defiling my body."

Xiao Qingmu looked at Chen Yuan contemptuously, and seemed to really think that the other party was here for her body.

Chen Yuan was speechless.

Damn, self-confident woman, so disgusting!

Didn't he know that Chen has always been indifferent to women?

Furthermore.....

Chen Yuan is not so hungry that he can't choose what to eat.

After Xiao Qingmu finished speaking, blood marks began to appear on her body, and in an instant, they were all over her body, and Chen Yuan did not move at all, just watched her gradually die.

He had already obtained his Destiny, and he had no interest in keeping such a woman.

The original intention was to kill her, but, it should be better to let her die more aggrieved, and then said lightly:

"The immortal dew left by Qingyun Temple will be regarded as the compensation that your Qingyun Sword Sect left to me."
