Chapter 464: Accept your Death

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Fish_Creek

The Sun had just risen, shedding down gold light rays that embraced this thousand year old city.

It was the busiest city of the Zhou Dynasty after all. Since the morning, there had been plenty of people and horses crowding the street, looking clamorous.

n.o.body knew at the time that an a.s.sa.s.sination was about to erupt. n.o.body noticed that a man in a black robe was slowly strolling on the street in the same manner he strolled in his backyard - casually and at ease.

It was Ling Xian.

Ever since he achieved his small milestone and after Feng Qing Ming gave him the finished Speedy s.h.i.+ft Array, he left the Painting of the Nine Immortals. By the second day, which was now, he entered this capital city.

Because the a.s.sa.s.sination hadn"t started, he wasn"t really nervous. He planned on walking around a few times before he went and decapitated the Third Prince"s head.

"Seven years pa.s.sed in the blink of an eye."

Ling Xian continued to his casual walk as he thought about his rivalry with the Third Prince. He couldn"t help it but to exclaim, "That year, I killed a part of the Third Prince and we planted the seed of hatred. I can"t believe that hatred would drag on until today."

"But this person, surely deserves to die."

Thinking about what happened at the Seventh Princess" Palace, Ling Xian"s eyes turned cold and he muttered to himself, "Oh well, let me end this seven year long hatred. The earlier it ends, the better."

He then quickened his step towards the capital city.

He had already acquired the information he needed. The Third Prince was not living in his own palace. He had been staying in the rural areas.

But this was actually an advantage for Ling Xian. After all, a battle against the Third Prince will create a commotion. This means, a lot of attention will be attracted.

If he unrolls his plan in the city, then even if he kills the Third Prince, he will not be able to escape under everyone"s watchful eye. If he attempts this a.s.sa.s.sination in the rural area, then it will, without a doubt, earn him more time to escape.

Of course, this is only a small part of the plan.

What"s more important is that Ling Xian must stop the Third Prince in a very short period of time!

One has to admit that this was a difficult thing to do.

To know that the Third Prince, other than his high status, was very capable as a cultivator. Back then, he won against everyone in his generation and was known to have never lost a battle!

Thus, to kill him in a short period of time was an extremely difficult task. After killing, the emperor will also for certain, be enraged. The critical time is what happens after the new travels!

"I have to achieve this in a very short period of time. I also must escape before the emperor realizes what has happened."

After establis.h.i.+ng a plan, Ling Xian"s steps quickened as he marched out of the city.

After an hour, he finally arrived at the rural area. A grand and sombre looking palace entered his eyesight.

"Though faraway, it is surely luxurious."

Looking at the gold and glorious palace, Ling Xian"s expression was emotionless. He said to himself, "The Third Prince, the day has finally come. Let us end our seven yearlong hatred."

He then summoned his Golden Dan and formed the hand seal to call out the Disorder Conquering Immortal Fists. Immediately, an infinite amount of heavenly light exploded. Just like the undying Sun, it was blinding and birght!

Then, Ling Xian slowly rose to mid-air and threw a punch downwards!

In an instant, an unmatchable amount of power roared out of him. Carrying with it the strength to split open sky and end all living beings!

…..

Just half an hour ago, inside the study room of this palace.

The Third Prince was sitting in his golden chair as he listened to his subordinates" reports. His handsome face was getting darker and darker, colder and colder.

After the a.s.sa.s.sination failed, he had sent all of his subordinates to follow Ling Xian in an attempt to kill him.

Sadly, no matter how powerful the army of the Third Prince"s was, he could not find a trace of him. This naturally infuriated him.

On top of that, these days, he had been feeling rather annoyed. After hearing about the failure of the a.s.sa.s.sination, he was naturally enraged.

"You are telling me that after 10 days, you still cannot find that b.a.s.t.a.r.d?"

The Third Prince"s expression was cold as he stared at the man in black. "Tras.h.!.+ As a guard, you cannot even pinpoint an outsider."

The man in black trembled and immediately knelt down, "Please calm down, your Third Prince. I… I truly cannot find a trace of him."

"Hmmph, that man sure knows how to hide."

The Third Prince hissed. His handsome face flashed with an intent to kill. "Not ending your life at the Seventh Princess" palace is your luck. I do not believe you can escape another a.s.sa.s.sination!"

He then s.h.i.+fted his gaze back to the man in black, "Are you sure Ling Xian is no longer at my sister"s?"

"Third Prince, I am certain." The man in black nodded.

"That"s true. Everyone in the Zhou Dynasty is looking for Ling Xian. No matter how gutsy that sister of mine is, she wouldn"t dare to help him and hide him."

The Third Prince revealed a sarcastic smile, "I have high expectations of seeing Ling Xian"s face right now. He is probably tired like a dog."

"You are always right, Third Prince."

The man in black complimented and a.n.a.lyzed, "That man wronged the emperor himself. Every single completion levelled cultivator is searching around for him."

"That"s true. I won"t think about this more. He probably won"t be able to escape death even without my doings."

The Third Prince coldly snickered and said to himself, "Ling Xian, I admit that you have some abilities and are talented. But under the circ.u.mstance today, no matter how capable you are, it will be hard for you to stay alive!"

Just as he was sure that Ling Xian was dead, he felt the entire palace shaking and he frowned.

"Someone"s attacking our array?"

The Third Prince frowned in disbelief. He was the Third Prince whose status and capability were both horrifying. Who in the entire Zhou Dynasty would dare to attack his palace?

Unless they were tired of living?

"Dammit, they are seeking death!"

After snapping back to reality, the Third Prince"s expression was dim. Just as he was about to go outside to see what was going on, an earth rumbling quake erupted and the protective array of the entire palace crumbled!

"Dammit, who is it!"

The Third Prince was infuriated at the fact that someone would dare to attack his palace in this city. It was the same as announcing an open war.

In the entire Zhou Dynasty, who dares to challenge him?

Other than Ling Xian, who had the guts?

"Ling Xian!"

The Third Prince gritted his teeth as his black hair tussled in the wind. The horrifying Qi exploded across, he screamed, "I want you dead!"

As those words were dropped, an overpowering amount of spiritual energy expanded from above and crashed down onto the ground!

At the same time, a man in a black robe descended down. The moment he landed, an arrogant and a resolved statement slowly left his lips.

"The Third Prince, accept your death!"
