Chapter 1199 Submission out of Fear
An Emperor battle was world-destroying at every turn .
There were already nobles in the palace beginning to walk toward the door furtively . Although the two Martial Emperors could only be heard and were not seen, even the aftershock of their actions through time-space was not something which these nobles could withstand .
Some people took slight pleasure in the others’ discomfort .
The new Emperor was of ignoble birth and had been lowly in status . Having gained power overnight, he clearly did not have much of a good opinion of the nobles in Royal City and thus acted perversely . Now that he finally encountered some actual resistance, the nobles hoped that the two Martial Emperors could suppress him and protect their interests in Royal City .
Conversely, Linghu Buxiu, Marquis Tingtao, and their companions vaguely felt that things were no good . The new Emperor did not have a stable foundation yet, while his actions today were indeed a little precipitate . To suppress this rotten bunch of nobles was actually something that could be done slowly . As the saying went, governing a large country is like cooking a small fish . Given the intricate power among the nobles in Royal City, acting too forcefully would only incite backlash .
What should we do?
Exchanging glances, these people did not have a plan .
After all, the matter of the day had already escalated to the level of Martial Emperors, and thus was no longer suitable for them to participate in .
Nie Tiankong became terribly anxious .
However, sitting on the Emperor throne, Ye Qingyu remained as calm as before .
“I’m the sovereign in charge at present . The main palace will not accommodate a second sovereign . Your time is already over, and so you two no longer have the right to speak . Leave now and I’ll overlook what you did this time . ”
His tone was incomparably powerful and intransigent .
“Hoho, how can I leave when you’re killing people of my race?” the sovereign of the Dark Feather clan spoke in a heavy tone and laughed grimly . As his voice resounded throughout the main palace, an Emperor aura began to spread in an extremely shocking manner .
The sovereign of the Sky-reaching clan spoke once more, “We would naturally not have any objections if you do your job as a sovereign well . However, you have crossed the line in touching my race . How can I allow you to step on the dignity of my race? We aren’t a small race like the Sky Fox race which you can crush and kill at will . ”
The postures of the two Martial Emperors were very firm, and between their lines was a kind of contempt toward Ye Qingyu, as if they were seniors reproaching a junior .
The fear on the faces of the two races’ chief commanders also faded, gradually turning into delight . Now that their elders, both of whom were also Martial Emperors, had showed up, such a two-versus-one scenario was certainly disadvantageous to the new Emperor .
As long as the new Emperor’s first order since taking charge was refused, his dignity would definitely plummet and he would become no cause for concern thereafter . Hence, this was a very important point .
The atmosphere in the palace was so tense that it was nearly on fire, while the air seemed to have frozen . Although many of the nobles were martial experts, they dared not even exhale their heavy breaths at this time .
However, Ye Qingyu’s expression continued to remain very calm and relentless, “I’d told you on the Azure Cloud Plaza that if you don’t dare to take things to the extreme and have a battle with me, then you’d better get lost and hide . Talking so much crap is just wasting your time and mine . ”
As soon as he spoke, the two snowflakes gave off a dazzling silver splendor once more and Emperor qi circulated, pressing on to the Emperor qi light shields on the Sky-reaching clan and Dark Feather clan commanders to the extent that they contorted and caved in, nearly collapsing . . .
Feeling that their bodies were splitting apart, the two commanders howled and revealed expressions of unprecedented horror . Their frantic struggles were of no avail .
“You… really want to turn things nasty, eh?” The voice of the sovereign of the Sky-reaching clan rang out once again with anger . The pressure of the Emperor qi in the main palace instantly multiplied .
Ye Qingyu sneered, “Don’t you remember saying on the Azure Cloud Plaza that you would kill me sooner or later? What face is there left between us?”
The sovereign of the Sky-reaching clan became silent .
He had indeed said this back then .
“If you insist on acting willfully, I shall have to crush you . ” The sovereign of the Dark Feather clan spoke in a gloomy and threatful tone . Like strands of black hair, terrifying Emperor qi circulated indistinctly in the void .
Ye Qingyu rebutted sarcastically, “It’s still not decided who will crush who . I’ve said before that your time is already over, and since you’ve decided to live on for the sake of it, you had better hide and wait for the opportunity that you’ve been anticipating to appear . Don’t always be unresigned and recalcitrant, trying to agitate the situation of today . This is nothing but a way to die . ”
“Young one, you weren’t even born when I gained Dao . How much of this world’s secrets do you even know, that you would dare to challenge us?” The sovereign of the Dark Feather clan nearly could not hold back any longer, and was on the verge of bursting into rage . The Emperor qi aura in the void also started to become unstable .
This was a form of deterrence .
Ye Qingyu guffawed with Emperor qi circulating all over his body . As the silver splendor burned like a silver flame and his hair fluttered, the strands of his black hair seemed to become plated in silver, giving him the appearance of a deity descended upon the world . “The order of gaining Dao does not matter . Anyone who attains it is a master . Don’t try to show off your seniority here . If you remain recalcitrant, feel free to take things to the extreme . Just one hand of mine will be able to crush you . ”
This was an invitation to battle .
He had absolutely nothing to fear .
This was because his heart was never with the aristocratic system . Breaking the status quo was a principle which he had always believed in and upheld like no other . If he was not in a hurry to get to the Great Wall of the Western Regions, the first thing he would do was to conduct a purge in Royal City before gradually extending it to the entire Dark Realm, completely dismantling the aristocratic system and building a new order . This explained why he had no qualms about wrecking the army headquarters in Royal City .
“You . . . ” The sovereign of the Dark Feather clan was feeling a mix of shock and anger, unable to believe that a new Emperor could be so arrogant and overbearing . He instantly had an impulse to escalate things and crush the latter, but his inner sense of reason made him choose to restrain himself .
This was because the losses outweighed the gains .
The time was still not ripe .
“Ugh… Save me, elder . ” The Dark Feather clan commander cried out, with the sparkling and beautiful snowflake already nearly pressing on his forehead and a bone-piercing sharp pain already spreading within his body .
“Nobody can save you . ”
