Invincible cultivation strengthens: my son is a troublemaker-Chapter 79: The Arrogant 3rd Prince
Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The Arrogant 3rd Prince
The Imperial City is vast.
Inside, there are not only resplendent gold and jade palaces and magnificent towers, but also scenic lakes and mountains, and even... a mountain!
This mountain is very ancient and contains many secrets. It is said that when the Royal Family first established the capital here, it was because of this mountain.
When Qin Zi brought Qin Chuan to the Imperial City, a large group of people was already waiting there.
These people were dressed in luxurious clothing, exuding an uncommon presence.
The burly middle-aged man at the forefront was actually wearing a dragon robe with five claws, leaving no doubt that he was the current emperor!
"Welcome, both of you."
The emperor’s face was adorned with a gentle smile, like an old good-natured person who never gets angry.
"Your Majesty is too kind."
Qin Chuan looked carefully and found that this emperor of the Nine Suns Dynasty seemed to be somewhat mediocre.
Only at the seventh level of the Tong Tian Realm!!
However, perhaps it is because of this mediocrity that he became emperor... after all, the Royal Family is deliberately showing weakness!
They must disguise this way to confuse their enemies and gain more development time for the family.
As for what the family has developed into in the shadows, no one knows. In fact, many members of the Royal Family are kept in the dark...
"The ancestor instructed to take Qin Zi directly to the Spirit Pool. Elder Qin Chuan, would you like to go with us, or rest in the Imperial Palace?"
The emperor asked with a smile.
"I will go together." freewebnoveℓ.com
Qin Chuan said calmly. It is better to keep a close eye on his son when on someone else’s turf.
This family is very complex; caution is the key to longevity.
"Very well, this way please."
The emperor was not surprised, as if knowing Qin Chuan would choose this option, and indeed, the invitation to rest in the Imperial Palace was just politeness.
After all, he did not want to wear the green dragon robe.
Soon, everyone arrived at the base of the mountain, where they could sense its majestic presence even more.
Its height and size were not particularly large, but its imposing aura stood like a Celestial Sword.
Moreover, through the lush vegetation, ancient cliff carvings could be seen, left by unknown swordsmen from a bygone era, still emanating lingering sword intent that sent shivers down one’s spine.
"Wham!"
A muffled sound came from the sky.
Everyone looked up, only to see a faint golden light screen appear in the sky, flashing briefly.
Outside the light screen, a blood mist appeared, with several charred feathers fluttering down slowly...
"Haha, it was a bird from outside trying to enter Nine Suns Mountain, killed by the Mountain Protection Array."
The emperor smiled and said to Qin Chuan, "This array was set by several ancestors two thousand years ago. Even if a Saint Realm expert came, they wouldn’t dare to intrude carelessly, or they would face certain death or injury."
Qin Chuan said nothing.
The father and son quietly followed behind the emperor, ascending step by step, amidst an entourage, on the ancient stone stairway.
After a long walk, they arrived at a brightly lit stone forest on the mountainside.
Grey and white stone pillars stood tall, covered with runes of various colors, making them appear eerie and dangerous.
"The Spirit Pool is located inside the Stone Forest. I will take Qin Zi in."
The emperor said to Qin Chuan, implying that it would be inconvenient for him to proceed further.
But he put it gently.
"Alright."
Qin Chuan nodded, then found a carved lotus stone platform on the edge of the Stone Forest and sat down.
"Father, I’m going in."
Qin Zi said as he followed the emperor into the Stone Forest, his figure quickly disappearing.
Qin Chuan sat on the lotus stone platform with his eyes closed, resting. He wasn’t cultivating but pondering his daily thoughts—what sort of situation needs to be staged to maximize benefits for his son?
He often thought about these things.
After all, opportunities are for those who are prepared. Only by doing your homework daily can you make a dazzling transition at critical moments...
Meanwhile, the accompanying Imperial Palace personnel stood quietly nearby, not daring to speak a word.
They knew that Qin Chuan was a distinguished guest invited by the ancestors, with a status so high it was frightening!
...
Soon, Qin Zi, led by the emperor, arrived at the Spirit Pool.
It was a circular pool more than thirty meters in diameter, with the water showing a faint golden hue, exuding astonishing Spiritual Energy!
Around the pool stood a dozen exotic beast statues, and on top of each statue sat a dirty old man.
These old men had disheveled hair, their clothes long worn-out and covered in thick dust.
It seemed they hadn’t moved in a long time.
"Esteemed elders of the Ancestral Hall, I have brought Qin Zi to the Spirit Pool by order of the ancestors."
The emperor said respectfully.
"Enter."
An ancient voice echoed, its source uncertain among the elders.
Then, the surface of the pool’s golden water parted like a curtain.
At the bottom, there was another pool, only fifteen meters in diameter, with three figures inside.
Two males, one female.
All were young people.
Among them, one young man caught Qin Zi’s eye instantly, the Eldest Prince Yang Qitian who he defeated at Wind and Thunder Valley!
When enemies meet, it is awkward, especially since he came to the enemy’s house for a meal.
This made Qin Zi somewhat embarrassed.
But unexpectedly, the previously defeated, humiliated Eldest Prince smiled at him kindly.
"What?!"
Qin Zi was startled and felt a little at a loss because he could see good intentions in Yang Qitian’s eyes.
This was entirely abnormal!
But you don’t hit someone smiling at you, so he put on a stiff smile in return.
The noble girl in the thin gauzy dress also opened her eyes and nodded at Qin Zi, greeting him.
However, the last young man sat quietly in the pool with closed eyes, an indifferent expression.
"Splash!"
Qin Zi stepped into the Spirit Pool, and immediately a layer of golden ripples spread, with pure energy rising from under his feet and pouring into his body, making him moan comfortably.
"Ah~"
The sound was incredibly mesmerizing, and as soon as the sound was made, Qin Zi’s old face turned red.
He glanced at the three not far away, noticing the Eldest Prince Yang Qitian chuckle, and the girl’s face showed a slight smile.
But the cold young man shuddered slightly, then opened his eyes and said to Qin Zi coldly, "Get out."
Wow!
Qin Zi’s previously shy expression froze instantly, momentarily at a loss.
Then a nameless fire rose in him. After all, he was a guest. Why was he insulted like this?
Being told to get out?
Is this how you treat a guest?
However, he didn’t immediately blow up, because as a guest, he must act like one too.
He took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "It was your ancestors who invited me here."
However, the young man’s expression did not change at all, and he even closed his eyes, lightly saying, "Get out."
"You!!"
Qin Zi was furious and clenched his fists with the urge to fight, but he held back, knowing this was someone else’s home.
Although the person in front of him was somewhat irritating, their elders were good people, so he couldn’t cause embarrassment for either side’s elders.
So he quietly sat down in the Spirit Pool—ignoring the annoying individual was best.
However, as soon as he sat down, a cold oppressive force enveloped him, and the cold young man’s indifferent voice sounded again.
"It seems you’ve ignored my words?"
