    “Uh...”


    Everyone present was astonished as they looked at the individual with horrifying aura presence, the Xia Tingwei who was even stronger than Old Eunuch Lin. They felt strangely unfamiliar and thought... was that still their king?


    Xia Tingwei originally already had the strength of the fourth or fifth stage of the Soul Travel Realm. The strength he was putting on disy now was actually at the Vajra Realm? Moreover, from the looks of it, he might even be beyond the fifth stage of the Vajra Realm!


    This wasn’t the crucial thing, what was important was that... Xia Tingwei actually hid this from the world. If it wasn’t for Jiang Yi attacking Monarch City, he probably wouldn’t have exposed himself, right?


    More than ten years ago, there was a martial artist who might have even broken through to the Vajra Realm over twenty years ago. However, he wasn’t satisfied by his aplishment and didn’t announce it to the world to receive the reverence and congrattions from his citizens. He chose to conceal it, even from his wife and son—even from his most trusted officials. Otherwise, this secret would have been made known to the world.


    If it was more than twenty years ago, Xia Tingwei had yet to even inherit the throne and was still a crown prince. He wasn’t even 30 years of age yet and was at the age where a young man would be a high-spirited and frivolous individual.


    Thinking back about it, a crown prince who was about to inherit the throne that had broken through to the Vajra Realm. If this news was out, Xia Tingwei would definitely shock the continent! If it was anyone else, they would have announced to the world; and his role as the king would be as steady as a mountain. The Divine Martial Kingdom’s prowess would have received a huge boost, but he actually chose to conceal it. He had done it for over ten or twenty years.


    When everyone thought about it, they couldn’t help but shiver!


    Xia Tingwei was such a patient person, but why did he conceal it? Was it for this moment? Or was it because he wanted to conquer the continent? That was why he had been concealing it... as he prepared to make thest move at the most crucial moment? Did he want to create a miracle? Now, because he was forced by Jiang Yi, he had no choice but to reveal it?


    The reason didn’t matter!


    The current Xia Tingwei put an unprecedented fear in most of the people’s heart. He gave off a feeling like he was a thousand-year-old demon that was wearing human skin. They were all looking at him with an unfamiliar gaze—which was very terrifying.


    Of course...


    There were many that were excited while their eyes had a burning passion. Now that they had such a powerful ruler, the number of Vajra Realm martial experts in the Divine Martial Kingdom was up to three now.


    Since Xia Tingwei could even conceal his true strength, how many more trumps did he have? No one could know! If they followed this ruler, the Divine Martial Kingdom’s future would be ever glorious. Perhaps... the Divine Martial Kingdom might even be the Divine Martial Empire!


    Swish!


    Jiang Bieli flew over with lightning speed while he had a pair of eyes which was at a loss. His ruler was on one side while his birth son was on the other side. He was in a great dilemma. Right now, he was extremely confused and just rushed over here without considering anything. As for what was he going to do aftering here? He didn’t think about it yet.


    “Bieli, don’t disappoint this King. This King wants you to be the no.1 official of the history and for your Jiang n to prosper for eternity!”


    Once this voice echoed, Jiang Bieli’s body shivered. He stopped while his eyes were in agony. Xia Tingwei had struck on his weak side. It was true that he wanted to be the no.1 official throughout the ages, but the most important was that... Xia Tingwei mentioned the Jiang n.


    The Jiang n had established themselves on thisnd for ten thousand years. The Jiang n had more than a thousand direct bloodline descendants while there were tens of thousands of coteral bloodline descendants. If he dared to obstruct Xia Tingwei from killing Jiang Yi, the tens of thousands of Jiang nsmen would have to die for Jiang Yi!


    He was Jiang Yi’s father; he was the Jiang n’s n Head as well!


    Xia Tingwei’s palm mmed down, which caused the air to vibrate even more and the range of the vibration was especiallyrge as well. Jiang Yi was just like duckweed in a giant wave as he floated in mid-air. Let alone instant-shifting, it was even difficult tounch an attack because he had no way to lock onto Xia Tingwei.


    Despite the case, he didn’t panic and just looked at Jiang Bieli who came from far away. He saw that Jiang Bieli was rushing over in a frenzy but suddenly paused while looking at Jiang Yi with agony. At this moment, Jiang Yi felt slight warmth in his heart. Blood was thicker than water, and Jiang Bieli wasn’t a deranged individual as he still acknowledged Jiang Yi as his son.


    Hence, Jiang Yi grinned and let out a sincere smile. He then closed his eyes, seemingly getting ready to die.


    “Die—!”


    Xia Tingwei’s giant palm mmed down quickly while his eyes were filled with excitement. He had been concealing his strength for over two dozen years, just for this moment to shock the world!


    Jiang Yi’s strength was improving too quickly, and he was the mortal enemy of the Xia n. If Jiang Yi was left alone to develop, all his aplishments would be ruined in Jiang Yi’s hand. The reason why he didn’t quickly send out an order to seize Liu Yu was that he desired for this moment.


    Seeing that Jiang Yi was closing his eyes and waiting for death, seeing that Jiang Bieli didn’t dare to interfere, and seeing that the Yazi Beast was still inbat with Old Eunuch Lin. Seeing how perfect everything was, his smile became ever brilliant!


    However—!


    Right at this moment, Jiang Yi grinned again while his eyes suddenly opened and shot out two sharp sword-like gazes at Xia Tingwei. Thetter could see traces of mockery in Jiang Yi’s eyes!


    “Not good!”


    Xia Tingwei’s heart paused as he felt lethal danger, but he was toote in his reaction. Jiang Yi’s palms lit up as he executed over a dozen palm strikes upward into the air. A sheet of mes formed in Jiang Yi’s palm and turned into a sea of mes that surged towards Xia Tingwei.


    The mes turned pale green, and every lump of mes looked as though there was a divine dragon swimming in it. The mes were abnormally hot, so much that Xia Tingwei felt his body burning up once the mes appeared.


    Jiang Yi couldn’t lock onto Xia Tingwei, but there was no need to!


    <i>This isn’t an essence force attack; it is real mes. Horrifying mes!</i>


    Xia Tingwei was terror-stricken. If it was an essence force attack or a dao pattern attack, he might have been able to scatter it. However, this was a mystic me of heaven and earth; and it was an abnormally horrific mystic me. His attack should be ineffective. If this me got near him—no matter how tough his physical body was, he would still be incinerated into ashes.


    His palms shook in the air while the air vibrated with him as the center. Ripples radiated in the air in all directions while the surrounding space looked as though it had distorted. Xia Tingwei attempted to use this mystical spatial dao pattern to stop the Nine Heavens’ Dragon mes from approaching.


    Once he executed this palm strike, Xia Tingwei immediately rushed towards the spatial crack with lightning speed as he obviously wanted to enter that spatial crack and teleport away.


    “Ah—!”


    Then again, he must have overestimated the effects of his spatial dao pattern and underestimated the power of the Nine Heavens’ Dragon mes!


    Just as his body entered the spatial crack, the Nine Heavens’ Dragon mes surged over and instantly incinerated his lower leg. The Nine Heavens’ Dragon mes continued to extend upwards, and Xia Tingwei’s entire body was about to be incinerated.


    Buzz!


    A golden jade token suddenly appeared in Xia Tingwei’s hand as he tossed it out. The jade token immediately swelled up with golden light, turning into a giant golden shield, which stopped the rest of the mes.


    Xia Tingwei drew his longsword and ruthlessly severed his legs, stopping the Nine Heavens’ Dragon mes from crawling up. The rest of his body rushed into the spatial crack while he left behind his words that had extreme resentment: “Jiang Yi, this King swears to kill you in this lifetime!”


    Tsk-Tsk!


    The golden jade token was quickly incinerated by the Nine Heavens’ Dragon mes while the ck ashes drifted in midair. Xia Tingwei’s lower legs had been incinerated while his two upper legs were quickly turned into ck ashes in the air. That pale green mes continued to burn in mid-air, turning the entire Monarch City into an oven.


    The entire area was in silence, dead silence!


    There were plenty of smiles that didn’t have time to fully open while the burning passion and excitement still lingered. However, all those quickly turned into shock, bewilderment, and fear!


    Just a moment earlier, Xia Tingwei changed from a ruler to a martial expert and was about to kill Jiang Yi!


    In the next second, Jiang Yi casually sent out a sea of mes; and there was an instant turn of events. Xia Tingwei’s legs were crippled, and his whereabouts were unknown. No one knew if he was still alive. Many people weren’t able to keep up with these dramatic changes.


    However, everyone realized something. If Jiang Bieli wasn’t going to make a move today—or if he wasn’t a match for Jiang Yi, then... Monarch City would truly be cleansed with blood.
