2026 Empty
More and more guards gathered and surrounded the place.
Apart from Commander Yuan, the other commanders of Green Cloud City rushed over as well. When they saw Prince Yuan Zuo in the crowd, their expressions changed slightly.
"What happened?"
A commander asked.
Commander Yuan pointed at Prince Yuan Zuo and said coldly, "This person released the supreme divine power of Myriad Transformations and actually took on the appearance of His Highness. He wants to infiltrate Green Cloud City with evil intentions!"
"Fufufufu,"
Prince Yuan Zuo was so angry that he laughed.
At that moment, he calmed down instead.
Since Su Zimo and Feng Ziyi could not escape from Green Cloud City, there was no need for him to be anxious.
The other guards of Green Cloud City sized up Prince Yuan Zuo continuously and whispered.
At the very least, they could not tell the difference on the surface.
However, the spirit consciousnesses of the commanders swept across Prince Yuan Zuo and their gazes gradually turned cold.
Everyone knew that Prince Yuan Zuo was a Grade 7 Earth Immortal.
The person before them was a Grade 9 Heaven Immortal!
His appearance, voice, physique and expression could be disguised. However, his cultivation realm could not.
"Fellow Daoist, since we're at this point, let's reveal our true bodies,"
A commander glared at Prince Yuan Zuo and said coldly, "Once we give the orders, you won't even get the chance to explain."
Commander Yuan sneered, "Cut the crap with him. Suppress him first and use the Soul Searching Art on him to see what he wants!"
"You want to suppress me? You even want to search my soul?"
Prince Yuan Zuo's expression was cold and his lungs were about to explode as he hollered, "How dare you! Get Jing Yue to meet me!"
"Ha!"
Commander Yuan sneered and mocked, "Why? Are you addicted to acting like Our Highness?"
Another commander could not help but laugh as well. "Your Highness's Destiny Dharmic Treasure is the Hunting Ranking. Take it out and let us take a look."
"You guys…"
At the mention of the Hunting Ranking, Prince Yuan Zuo's blood qi surged and his eyes turned red. He clenched his fists so tightly that they cracked.
The Hunting Ranking had already been devoured by the Hell Suppression Tripod—how could he still have it?!
"Hahahaha!"
When Commander Yuan saw Prince Yuan Zuo like this, he burst into laughter and said mockingly, "Why? You can't continue acting, right?"
"What happened?"
Suddenly, a voice sounded not far away.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue walked over slowly through the void.
After a year, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue had lost a lot of weight and there was still a hint of worry on his face.
In the past year, Feng Cantian's matter had troubled him.
"Greetings, County Governor,"
The commanders and many guards bowed.
Prince Yuan Zuo stood there with his head raised. His expression was cold and he trembled in anger.
"County Governor, someone pretending to be His Highness Yuan Zuo has arrived in the city with evil intentions. Thankfully, I was careful and saw through his loopholes, stopping him,"
Commander Yuan stood out hurriedly and did not forget to claim credit as he recounted the matter.
Others did not know the background of Prince Yuan Zuo at all and did not know that he had cultivated a clone. Therefore, they had preconceived notions. However, Jing Yue knew everything.
"Your Highness!"
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue's expression changed when he recognized Prince Yuan Zuo's true body.
He hurried forward and bowed, asking softly, "Isn't your true body in seclusion cultivation? What happened to alarm your true body?"
The other cultivators were dumbfounded when they heard that. Their minds were in a mess and they could not react in time.
The commanders were the first to realize the truth and knelt down hurriedly with terrified expressions.
The other guards followed suit and knelt on the ground.
Only Commander Yuan stood rooted to the ground, unable to accept reality.
Was the person he mocked earlier on truly His Highness Yuan Zuo?
If so, instead of a meritorious deed, he had created a huge trouble!
"Your Highness, I was blind and did not recognize your true body. Please forgive me, Your Highness!"
With a thud, Commander Yuan knelt on the ground hurriedly and kowtowed repeatedly for mercy.
Prince Yuan Zuo harrumphed coldly and glared at Commander Yuan. He kicked the latter away and scolded, "B*stard, don't you have eyes? Scram! I'll settle scores with you in the future!"
Right now, he was in no mood to waste time with Commander Yuan. Soaring into the air, he headed towards his residence.
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue followed behind.
The other commanders exchanged glances and followed hurriedly.
"Your Highness, did something happen in the Emperor's Tomb?"
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue's heart skipped a beat as he vaguely guessed a possibility and probed.
"There's something wrong with Su Zimo,"
Prince Yuan Zuo did not hide anything. "He was the one who helped Feng Cantian escape from Absolute Thunder City! That Bronze Tripod is in his hands!"
"Ah!"
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue's heart skipped a beat.
He had some impression of Su Zimo.
He was the one who brought the green-robed scholarly cultivator back personally outside Glass City and sent him into the Ten Absolute Hell.
Before long, Prince Yuan Zuo and the others arrived at the residence and descended.
When the many guards and maidservants in the residence saw Prince Yuan Zuo, Perfected Immortal Jing Yue and the other important figures of Green Cloud City descend, they bowed hurriedly.
"Greetings, Your Highness. Greetings, County Governor…"
Prince Yuan Zuo glanced at the extremely quiet residence and then at the hall that was surrounded by iron walls. He frowned slightly. "Has no one else gone out from here?"
The maidservants and guards in the residence raised their heads and looked at Prince Yuan Zuo with strange expressions before shaking their heads.
Everyone saw Prince Yuan Zuo leave with their own eyes. However, he naturally could not be considered as anyone else.
Prince Yuan Zuo looked at the sealed hall and sneered. "I thought that you were nothing. To think that you're so scared that you don't even dare to leave this hall!"
"Your Highness, what happened?"
Perfected Immortal Jing Yue asked.
Since things had come to this, Su Zimo and Tang Ziyi were trapped in the hall before him and could not escape even if they had wings. There was no need for Prince Yuan Zuo to hide anything and he recounted everything that happened in the hall.
"These two ants destroyed my clone and Dharmic treasure. I'll definitely torture them and make them suffer a fate worse than death!"
Prince Yuan Zuo said hatefully.
"Y-Your Highness…"
Right then, a weak voice sounded.
A maidservant raised her head with a fearful expression and asked carefully, "You mean to say that your clone is gone?"
"What are you trying to say?"
Prince Yuan Zuo frowned slightly and said sternly, "Speak if you have anything to say. Don't stutter!"
The maidservant gulped and said with a trembling voice, "Previously, the few of us witnessed you leave this place with Tang Ziyi…"
"What did you say?!"
Prince Yuan Zuo was shocked.
A Green Cloud City commander coughed gently and stammered, "I think I saw it too. Your Highness left Green Cloud City with a woman."
Prince Yuan Zuo spun around and looked at the hall in front of him, shouting, "Rise!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The iron walls around the hall rose rapidly, revealing a slightly spacious hall that was silent and empty.
When he saw that, Prince Yuan Zuo's face turned ashen.
