With Tang Yan at the center, silence rapidly spread, eventually affecting the distant and frenzied Wu Wang battlefield.
"Princess?" Everyone's faces turned grim. Didn't Tang Yan escape? How could he have kidnapped the princess!
"This kid is smart, he managed to slip to the princess when no one was paying attention."
"What does he want? Could he really kill the princess?!"
"Uh... I don't think so..."
"Definitely not, it's just a scare tactic. If he kills the princess, where will he have a place to hide in this world?"
"Let me ask a weak question, even if he doesn't kill her, will he have a place to hide in this world?"
"..."
"Watch carefully, I want to see how this farce ends today."
"Regardless of the outcome, the Northern Wasteland will be in turmoil for a while."
The crowd was in an uproar, and the entire situation was completely turned around by Tang Yan's actions.
"Tang Yan, release the princess, I'm only saying this once!" Chang Tianzhu's face finally turned dark.
"Old man, watch your tone!" Tang Yan coldly snorted, and the ancient war knife inside Ailinda's body fiercely stirred, instantly tearing her internal organs to shreds, blood gushing out like a spring.
The cruel means made the faces of the noble heirs far away turn pale. Too ruthless!!
Zhou Linglu's whole body trembled violently, and she let out a sharp wail: "You bastard, let me go, I'll make sure you die a miserable death."
"You..." Chang Tianzhu took a step forward, the ground within a thousand meters trembled violently, and numerous houses were covered with cracks, as if they could collapse at any moment. The powerful pressure could be clearly felt even a thousand meters away.
"Chang Tianzhu, what, you want to make a move?" Tang Yan coldly snorted, "We turned a blind eye to the Wu Wang's actions, and now you want to take action yourself? A Wu Zun, intimidating a Wu Zong? What a great reputation for your Spirit King Manor, Chang Tianzhu, what a great arrogance! If this gets out, there will be no one left to mock others! Congratulations, Chang Tianzhu, you will be remembered in history!"
"Shut up!" Chang Tianzhu flew into a rage.
"Who the hell are you being arrogant with?" Tang Yan's face turned cold, and the sky full of fire clouds suddenly condensed, forming a fist-sized fireball. The fireball trembled violently, as if it could explode at any moment, and the surrounding space was distorted.
Although the fireball was small, the power it contained made even Dean Dong frown, subtly preparing himself.
Chang Tianzhu's face was grotesque: "Tang Yan, do you really think I won't destroy your Tang family?"
"I do think so!" Tang Yan clenched his right hand, and a vast energy surged out, a sharp whistle echoing through the sky. A hundred-meter-long giant eagle fire shadow proudly formed, blocking the sky and sun. After the fierce whistle, it was compressed into a palm-sized firebird, trembling and floating above Tang Yan's head.
Elegant and beautiful, but terrifying!
A fireball in front, a firebird in the air, if these two things locked onto someone, they would be dead or at least severely injured.
Before Chang Tianzhu could prepare, Tang Yan took another step, and the entire Giant Elephant City trembled violently, as if a river was surging underground. But... the faces of everyone inside and outside the city turned pale, lava?! It's lava! Is Tang Yan going to destroy the entire Giant Elephant City?!
Dean Dong's face turned serious: "Old Tang, that's enough. I'll be the mediator today. Calm down, don't be impulsive, Chang Tianzhu, you must remain calm and not make a move against Tang Yan. Old Tang, think of the people of Giant Elephant City. If you destroy it, you will be the enemy of hundreds of thousands of people, and your Tang family won't be able to stand in the Northern Wasteland. Chang Tianzhu, for your reputation, I personally think that a Wu Zun making a move against a small Wu Zong is not very honorable. You are an elder, he is just a child, it's not appropriate."
He had to intervene now. No one had expected the situation to develop to this extent, and no one had anticipated that Tang Yan would value this child so much. Now, he had to mediate, at least to prevent a Wu Zun-level battle, otherwise, the Giant Elephant City would surely be destroyed!
Chang Tianzhu was furious but couldn't ignore the princess's safety. Just as he was about to make a desperate move, he unexpectedly sensed a peculiar energy fluctuation from outside the city, as if it had locked onto him!
Was it killing intent? Soul-tearing cold killing intent! Was it bloodlust? Was it the heavy, nauseating blood!
Who?
Where did this aura come from!
At the city gate, an old man smoking a pipe shook his head and sighed, holding a delicate purple short sword, his voice hoarse: "I can't stand it anymore."
Not only did he feel it, but Tang Yan and Dean Dong also sensed it, their attention focused on outside the city gate. There was a very strange energy fluctuation there, even they felt a shiver.
"Everyone listen up, clear the way, open the city gate. If anyone dares to obstruct me, don't blame me, Tang Yan," Tang Yan's dark roar refocused everyone's attention. He suddenly grabbed Zhou Linglu's collar with his right hand and pulled her back.
"Shameless scoundrel, let me go!!"
"What do you want? I'll kill you!!"
Large patches of skin were exposed, and Zhou Linglu angrily shouted in shame.
"People of the Spirit King Manor, listen up. I won't kill her, I'll just give the onlookers a little treat. After watching for so long, enjoy the beautiful body of our empire's princess!" Tang Yan's face was full of ferocity, and no one doubted that this was just a joke, given his reputation.
This threat was a hundred times more ruthless than killing Zhou Linglu.
Inside and outside the city, everyone looked at each other, but no one dared to laugh. Undressing the princess in public? It's amazing this second son could think of such a thing. If he really did it, wouldn't Zhou Lingwang be so angry that he would spit blood?
This incident today was truly the biggest it could get.
Tang Yan's resentful gaze swept over Chang Tianzhu in the distance. Ignoring Zhou Linglu's curses and struggles, he leaped down from the building and ran towards the city gate. Tang Ba and others abandoned the manor's retainers and caught up with Tang Yan, closely guarding him.
Chang Tianzhu was so angry that his body trembled, but he didn't dare to act rashly.
People on the main street of the city automatically moved to the sides, watching Tang Yan and Zhou Linglu rush towards the city gate.
"This guy is really fierce!"
"An idol, if I could be this crazy once in my life, it would be worth it."
"Shh! Keep your voice down, if the Spirit King Manor people hear, you'll be sent to the border."
"What's there to fear? The Spirit King Manor has lost face today."
"Indeed, to be messed around by a child like this."
"Hehe, I didn't expect our Giant Elephant City to have such a hero. I really underestimated this second son of the Tang family."
Many people laughed and talked, enjoying the chaos, but some were worried. After such a commotion, Zhou Lingwang wouldn't let it go, and the Giant Elephant City wouldn't be peaceful. If there were more such disturbances, many more people would suffer.
The city gate guards had already opened the gate, and a few officers who were friends with Tang Yan even lowered the drawbridge, sending him off in their own way.
"You're really ruthless, but... I like it!" Du Yang waited for Tang Yan outside the city gate, grinning. However, he could barely stand, his body severely damaged from overusing Spirit Source Liquid and overexerting himself, swaying as if he might faint at any moment.
"Quick, I can't hold on much longer." Tang Yan's breathing was heavy, and blood was seeping from his seven orifices due to excessive endurance. The Body Destruction Technique had reached its limit, and he might collapse at any moment.
Tang Ba and the others landed, about to tease him, but they all noticed Tang Yan's condition. The golden light had dissipated, his bones and muscles were like kindling, his skin wrinkled and aged, almost unrecognizable.
"How could this happen?" The three of them looked particularly grim, and Tang Qing quickly hugged Tang Yan.
"Kill her! Don't leave a root of trouble, kill her!" Tang Yan's last words were a whisper, and his consciousness completely fell into darkness.
"Kill her?" Tang Hao caught the unconscious Zhou Linglu, who was losing blood and becoming delirious.
"Kill her, it's like a blood oath. This kid is really cunning!" Tang Ba looked at the unconscious Tang Yan meaningfully and nodded in agreement.
A fierce light flashed in Tang Hao's eyes, and he casually threw Zhou Linglu into the air. The manor's retainers rushed to catch her, but the next second...
"Spirit King Manor! Here's my gift! Catch it well!" Tang Hao's arm vibrated, and a red light shot into the sky. Just as Zhou Linglu was about to land in the hands of the retainers, she exploded, turning into a rain of blood and limbs, drifting down in the shocked gaze of the crowd.
Inside and outside the city gate, everyone was momentarily stunned, and the next second, the situation exploded. They killed the princess? They really killed her! This was Zhou Linglu's most beloved daughter, the eldest daughter of the Spirit King Manor, the emperor's niece!
Just like that, in broad daylight, they killed her?
"Go!!" Tang Hao shouted, his fire wings extended, sweeping up Du Yang and Tang Yan, shooting into the sky. Tang Ba and Tang Qing followed closely behind, fleeing at their fastest speed.
This madness today was unprecedented. Was Tang Yan crazy? Or was the old man crazy? Or were they all crazy!
"Ah!! Kill them!!" Uncle Hua let out a mournful wail, and the other three Wu Wangs woke up, chasing after them like mad, even Chang Tianzhu was enraged and wanted to rush over.
"Where should I put these two little things?" Tang Yan played with the fireball and firebird in front of him, seeming very troubled, and sighed helplessly: "There's no place in the city, I'll throw them outside."
In an instant, the fireball and firebird crossed the Giant Elephant City, appearing before the city gate. Two devastating explosions rolled, the sky and earth turned scorching, and the surging waves of energy blocked the sky and sun, as if burying the entire Giant Elephant City.
Under the impact of this power, many strong people at the city gate were thrown out, even Uncle Hua and the Wu Wangs staggered. In the surging waves, a force seemed to penetrate the space, enveloping Tang Hao and the others, pushing them nearly a thousand meters away, completely disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Tang Yan, are you looking for death?" Chang Tianzhu glared.
"Where else can I put them? Should I swallow them? Since the matter is over, is it wrong for me to clean up the garbage?" Tang Yan's face was expressionless, and he waved his hand, indicating: "Tang family, go back, it's time to make dinner."
Chang Tianzhu's face changed several times, wanting to explode but finding no excuse. After a moment, he roared hysterically: "Everyone, chase them!!"
