Chapter 348: 348
"Young lord, what should we do?" Fan Tu said anxiously .
It was impossible for the Southwind Ridge to withstand the troops of the dynasty .
Jiang Chen was weighing his choices . He had to rescue his father, and he wouldn't want anything to happen to the Southwind Ridge .
But if he gave Ning Haotian to them, the latter would become a huge potential threat to him .
"I'm a citizen of Your Majesty's empire, but Your Majesty is protecting foreigners from other fields, instead of me?" Jiang Chen shouted loudly .
He shouted loud enough for those outside the city to hear .
A killing intent was emerging between the Xia Dynasty emperor's eyebrows . He said loudly and clearly, "The Black Dragon City also belongs to the dynasty . Did you consider the laws of the dynasty when you claimed you were going to slaughter the whole city?"
"Who started all this? Back then, it was the Black Dragon City's fault, but Your Majesty was still on their side . Looks like Your Majesty knows about various grades and ranks perfectly," Jiang Chen said in a sarcastic tone .
"How dare you! What made you think you could speak to me like this?"
The emperor of the Xia Dynasty had been holding a grudge against him since the Third Prince's death . He had been holding his temper due to the Sacred Institute, but his anger had kept rising until that day .
"I'm a member of the Hero Palace . Have you ever thought about how the Hero Palace would feel seeing the help you're offering aristocratic families of inheritance?" asked Jiang Chen .
The emperor hesitated at the mention of the Hero Palace . He looked towards the Murongs and the Sus .
"It's not going to work . Stop struggling . The Hero Palace can't help you out," Murong Xiong said . Since his voice was transmitted by the internal power he gained from practicing martial arts, no one else could hear it .
"The Hero Palace isn't strong enough to dominate the whole Dragon Field, as you think . To be more precise, the Hero Palace isn't even as good as a first-class group . All it has is an irreplaceable, prestigious place in people's hearts, which functions well to call out groups to kill demons at crucial moments .
"The trust of the people is the most wealth the Hero Palace has . That's why they'll try their best not to use it up . They won't meddle, because you and the Black Dragon City have old scores . Even if the Xia Dynasty eliminates your clansmen, it's because you committed a crime first . Besides, Ning Haotian is a member of my aristocratic family of inheritance .
"Not to mention the Hero Palace is still ignorant of what's happening here . We travelled here so fast because we sensed the purity of his dragon blood . "
Murong Xiong spoke a lot and fast so that Jiang Chen could understand the situation well . He didn't want the latter to invite trouble that neither of them wanted due to stupidity .
"If Ning Haotian dies, the troops will attack the Hundred Thousand Mountains," the emperor of the Xia Dynasty said complacently . What Murong Xiong had said put him at ease .
"Is Your Majesty sure?" Jiang Chen sneered and jumped onto the warship . He took Crimson Moon out of the cabin .
The princess had no idea what had happened . She looked around, at a loss, while mumbling, "Are we at the Black Dragon City?"
She had been here, but she had never seen a Black Dragon City as desolate as this one, full of Magic Columns that she smelled danger from, although she had no idea what the columns were .
"You made it?"
The Black Dragon City was in such a state, but no one was stopping Jiang Chen . Crimson Moon was smart enough to figure out why .
Jiang Chen didn't answer . He gestured for her to look up .
"Father?"
Crimson Moon saw the emperor as soon as she looked up . Her expression became very strange .
"Crimson Moon, why are you with him?!" the emperor said in surprise .
Murong Xiong was unhappy to see things getting more complicated . He glanced at Ning Haotian and said, "Order the troops to attack . Don't stop until he lets Ning Haotian go . "
"But…"
The emperor hesitated, but soon he made up his mind . A red light was emitted from his hand, flying toward the Hundred Thousand Mountains .
"Damn it! Doesn't Your Majesty want the princess to live?" shouted Jiang Chen .
"I suggest you stop struggling and let Ning Haotian go while you still have leeway," said the emperor .
"Okay! You made me do this!"
