Miracle Doctor Abandoned Daughter The Sly Emperor's Wild Beast-Tamer Empress

The Battle of Survival

Hong Qingyun had just ended his Cultivation in Isolation . Naturally, he didn’t know that Hong Shisan had beaten Hong Mingyue in the duel .

“Mingyue has lost?!”Hong Qingyun was stunned . He looked at his most beloved granddaughter in astonishment .

Hong Mingyue was still having the Crown Prince Xia Houqi under her control, though her weary look and the dim light in her eyes gave out her inglorious defeat a few moments ago .

Hong Mingyue cracked a bitter smile . The grandpa who had loved her so was now looking at her with disappointment and with pain and apathy, with all the emotions but kind encouragement .

Thirteen years she had spent to become the genius of the world .

Now one single defeat and all the efforts became futile .

“Grandfather, Mingyue was not good enough . I have disappointed you . ” With these words, her heart bled and her eyes turned red . Her hand controlling Xia Houqi was shaking even more violently .

“Hong Shisan, you have humiliated my family once and again . I cannot spare you . Now there are two ways for you: one, take your own life and I’ll spare your subordinates; and two, I can send you all to h.e.l.l . ” There was a chilling killing intent in Hong Qingyun’s eyes .

“Hong Qingyun, you old fool . Aren’t you ashamed of threatening a latecomer the age of your grandchildren to take his life! You want a duel, don’t you? Let’s fight a duel . ” Marquis Wu Gu Cangtian heard this, and looked sternly at Hong Qingyun with eyebrows tightly knitted .

While he was talking, Lan Yingwu, who was standing near him, heard a slight sound . It was Gu Cangtian who had secretly pa.s.sed his voice to him .

Advertis.e.m.e.nt

“Yingwu, when I engage with Hong Qingyun, you few try to think of some way to rescue the Crown Prince and escort him, the Empress and the Empress Dowager to a safe place . As long as the royal lifeline is preserved, there will be chances to rise again . ”

Having heard Gu Cangtian’s weather-beaten voice, Lan Yingwu was astounded .

It sounded as if Gu Cangtian was entrusting the royal family to him and was ready to give his life in this final fight .

Lan Yingwu wanted to stop him . But the words were stuck in his throat . Finally, he solemnly nodded .

“Gu Cangtian, you ask for this . It is not that I am cold-blooded with you, my fellow cultivator . ” A look of merciless kill appeared in Hong Qingyun’s eyes . He had been short of a rival to practice with ever since he had broken into the Divine Realm . Now, he can use Gu Cangtian to build his reputation .

Gu Cangtian’s figure flashed and he darted into the sky like an arrow .

Hong Qingyun smiled with conceit . His body, which was as straight as a pine, slight shook, and roaring currents of Yuan energy rushed out and flooded the entire sky .

The clouds split beside him . Hong Qingyun wielded his arms and with a deafening “Boom!”, a punch came down with the force of the weight of Mount Tai . Then suddenly, the sky was filled with thunders, as if hordes of horses were galloping across the sky .

Hong Qingyun’s punch was the signature punch of the Hong family . It was also Hong Qingyun’s best move when he was young, the one that Hong Yulang had used long ago in a fight with Ye Lingyue .

The same move was performed by Hong Yulang and by Hong Fang . But Hong Qingyun’s move was again different .

His punch was followed by hundreds of layers of shadows and each shadow went into a blast like a thunder .

The seventh degree martial move of a Divine Realm cultivator could create the effect equal to that of a fourth degree martial move .

Gu Cangtian looked serious and grim . Suddenly he let out a furious roar, and scales began to grow on his arms . And quickly retreating, he launched a firm fist right against it .

A sliver of contempt flashed through Hong Qingyun’s eyes when he saw Gu Cangtian’s punch .

Boooooom!

Multiple fist shadows collided and a golden glow erupted in the sky, coloring the entire sky above the capital of Xia .

The effect of this punch was felt from afar . Countless houses ten lisaway from the royal palace was destroyed in the split of a second .

A seventh degree martial move had not fallen short of the fourth degree move in the slightest bit .

The Divine Realm Hong Qingyun was truly remarkable .

Hong Shisan, who had been watching from the ground, felt his heart swings with their back-and-forth attacks .

Hong Fang and Hong Mingyue looked upon at the sky and couldn’t help but look glad .

Just at this moment, two shadows glided swiftly towards Hong Mingyue .

“Protect the Crown Prince . ”

It was Lan Yingwu and Ye Huangyu, who, taking each side, charged towards Hong Mingyue .

“Reckless fools . ” Seeing this, Hong Fang smirked and was about to beat them off .

“Hong Fang, your rival is here” Nie Fengxing charged at him, his figure as swift as a lightning . He blocked Hong Fang’s way and met him in a solid palm attack .

“Nie Fengxing, so you can’t wait to meet your creator . I’ll grant you that wish . ” Seeing Nie Fengxing, Hong Fang was even angrier . A spirit sword slid from his sleeve and in the flashing of swords, the two launched into a fight .

Yuan energy was pumping from those two masters of the Reincarnation Realm, who were locked in the height of a fight where no one was able to set a foot .

“Hong Mingyue, release the Crown Prince . ” Lan Yingwu and Ye Huangye were fighting a head-to-head contest against Hong Mingyue .

“Whether to release or not is eventually our call . Two cultivators of mere first or second level of the Reincarnation Realm could even dare to rival the Three Lives Valley!?” Luo Song and the elder from the Three Lives Valley smirked and landed beside Hong Mingyue .

Luo Song and that elder had not known beforehand about the Hong family’s plan of a coup during the Imperial Contest .

Were it before, Luo Song and the elder would not have meddled with the whole affair . After all, the sects were places of cultivation, where cultivators would not normally interfere with the political maneuver in the secular court .

But this coup in Da Xia was somewhat different .

First, Hong Mingyue and Luo Song had an engagement and the two would become husband and wife in days . Luo Song, who had been coveting Hong Mingyue for years, would never give her up at this point .

Second, Hong Qingyun had broken into the Divine Realm . Though he was only half step inside of the Realm, he had still become the very few top cultivators on the Qing Continent . Such a figure was worthy of collaborating with the Three Lives Valley .

Luo Song and the elderly were respectively on the third level and the fourth level of the Reincarnation Realm . They were several notches above Lan Yingwu and Ye Huangyu in terms of cultivation . Therefore, when these two stepped up, Hong Yingyue looked much more relieved .

“If they two are not strong enough, then count us in . Would that be enough?” With a whoosh, a few figures appeared in the sky above the imperial drill ground .

Master Longyu and several alchemists from the Alchemist Tower speedily glid towards them .

When the Hong family was planning an overthrow, Alchemist Qiu was encouraged by Hong Fang to seize the leadership of the Alchemist Tower amidst the chaos .

This had exasperated the elder alchemists including Master Longyu .

These elder alchemists were very rarely seen normally . But they had not hesitated to stand out at the time of overbearing crises when Da Xia’s regime was shaken and the Emperor was killed .

Now with several elder alchemists of eight or nine cauldron’s level joining the fight, Luo Song and the elderly from the Three Lives Valley, who had been very confident early on, changed their face in the dramatic twist of events .
