"That’s right, Your Majesty.""Then where is he now?""The young warrior is currently on his way here, Your Majesty."Emperor Sin Jinhao was deeply puzzled. The arrival of the Shang Dynasty’s crown prince at his palace surely meant something important. But he couldn’t think of any mistake he had made since the meeting at the Song Dynasty’s palace."Forgive me, Your Majesty. But who is this young warrior, actually?" asked a soldier, curious about the worried expression on the emperor's face."He is Prince Li Jie, soldier. Grandson of His Majesty Emperor Li Wei and the rightful heir to the Shang Dynasty throne."The three soldiers were shocked to hear this. They hadn’t realized they had caused trouble yesterday with the future ruler of the Shang Dynasty. Worry crept into their minds."Forgive me, Your Majesty… but his appearance doesn’t show he’s a prince. And he didn’t even bring a single guard.""That’s just how Prince Li Jie is. He dislikes drawing attention to himself as a prince. B

 "Who are you, and why are you blocking His Majesty from entering the Luhan Duchy!?" a head soldier barked."By order of Duke Yu Zun, no one is allowed to enter the Luhan Duchy, not even the Emperor himself!" replied a man dressed entirely in black. The sword in his hand was drawn, signaling he was ready for battle."Duke Yu Zun is not the ruler of the Tong Dynasty! You've made a serious mistake!""I don't care if you're from the palace. Anyone who dares to enter Luhan Duchy—we will eliminate them!"Hearing faint commotion from outside, Emperor Sin Jinhao turned to one of his soldiers and asked, "Soldier, what is the disturbance outside?""Forgive me, Your Majesty. We are not allowed to enter Luhan Duchy. A group assigned by Duke Yu Zun is guarding the gates."The Emperor frowned with rage. "Who are they?""Judging by their uniforms, they appear to be

At the same time, Duke Yu Zun and Li Shimin lunged toward the young man, using the same technique as before. They were still curious about Li Jie's ability to expel poison from his body so quickly. Both of them thought to combine their venomous power to defeat the young man.Unlike the previous two strikes, this time Li Jie did not allow his body to become the target of their blows. Using the Flaming Dragon Claw technique, he charged straight at their attacks.The first clash of their opposing energies produced a muffled explosion. The two enemies were forced several steps back, while Li Jie remained firmly in place without moving an inch.Not only were they pushed back, but parts of the clothes worn by Duke Yu Zun and Li Shimin were also burned.“He’s not our match, Elder. I think he truly did defeat Elder Datuk Sesat,” said Duke Yu Zun. Doubt began to creep into his heart. Doubt that he could win against this young man standing before him.“Shall we stick to the original plan, Sir?”

Some members of the sect moved forward to attack Li Jie. Others, thinking more rationally, ran away from the place. They didn’t want to die in vain. Seeing four of their comrades die so easily was proof enough that they stood no chance. Especially against a young man capable of hurling fireballs to attack them.An unbalanced battle ensued. One by one, the sect members were killed and burned by the searing claws Li Jie unleashed upon them. The members of the Black Peak Sect were unable to withstand the deadly assaults.Screams of pain and death echoed repeatedly. It didn’t take long for Li Jie to wipe out all the sect members who had dared to attack him. They died at his hands, their bodies charred to ashes.Li Jie let out a long breath after finishing off the last living member of the sect. As for those who had fled, he made no effort to chase them. Instead, he focused on searching for any valuables that might still be left inside the now-deserted sect compound.After thoroughly check

 "It looks like we've got ourselves a very special catch today, boys! A beautiful goddess sent down just for us. Look at that body... so firm and full. I'm sure we'll be more than satisfied enjoying her!" one of them said."Let’s just hope she’s strong enough to serve us all, hahaha!" another one replied."Judging by her figure, I bet she's still a virgin. How about we draw lots to see who gets to take her virginity first?" said a slightly chubby man. "But first, let’s catch her!"The beautiful girl was clearly not ready for the situation she was facing. Yesterday, she had been kidnapped by members of the Black Peak Sect for ransom, but this time, it was different. These six men were burning with lust to lay their hands on her."Don't come any closer or I'll scream!""Scream all you want, pretty girl! There’s no one else here but us. You'd better obey, and we can all enjoy a piece of heaven together!" said a tal
