Divine & Bizarre: Increasing Points to Invincibility-Chapter 1047 - 302: Trembling with Fear!
People even in the Imperial City could clearly witness such large-scale magical duel scenes, not to mention those within the Shangwu Dynasty Imperial Palace... Especially the current Crown Prince of the Shangwu Dynasty, who felt the ground violently trembling beneath him and hurriedly ran outside the palace, then looked toward the distant scene.
The expression written on his face was full of panic and shock, and his voice carried an incredulous tone, "What on earth is happening? Could it be that Daoist Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple has already encountered the National Master? Hiss! Why is there such a commotion, are they even human anymore?"
Even though he was the Crown Prince of the Shangwu Dynasty and knew that there were many powerful cultivators in the world, he had never seen a cultivator cause such a disturbance. Clearly, this shocked him greatly and also filled him with fear.
Because for him, the current Crown Prince of the Shangwu Dynasty, the duel between Daoist Fan Wu of Qiulong Temple and that National Master, no matter who won, it spelled trouble for him.
If Daoist Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple were to win, that would be terrible. If one could strike against a National Master, why could they not strike against him, a Crown Prince? This possibility... naturally was very great, after all, the opponent was so reckless.
Moreover, he was even more worried about the name Fan Wu and his age, which coincidentally matched the person he least wanted to encounter, and such a coincidence made him very uneasy.
If this Daoist Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple and his deceased elder brother’s lost orphan were indeed the same person, that would be more than just a problem — it would be lethal!
After all, if that were truly the case, then why else would he come into the Imperial City of the Shangwu Dynasty, if not to target him?
It definitely wouldn’t just stop there; he would surely target him, the Crown Prince too! After all... the ones who had conspired to kill the opponent’s father were him and that National Master!
The many ministers in the Imperial Palace were unaware of what the Crown Prince was currently thinking.
The anxious ministers were also looking toward the distant commotion, each extremely tense, wanting to see up close what was actually happening. However, they dared not get too close, afraid that their feeble bodies might not even withstand the residual shockwaves of the battle.
"I’ve always known that the National Master was very powerful, but I never thought he could be this powerful. It’s almost too extreme, with such a commotion it’s like deities clashing in battle, could the National Master be a deity?"
"If the National Master is a deity, then is Daoist Fan Wu from Qiulong Temple, who is dueling with him, also a deity? Could this be a clash between two deities? How is that possible?"
"Who knows who will win between them; if the National Master wins, that would be great!"
"Nonsense, of course, the National Master will win!"
Hearing the discussions of the ministers behind him, in truth, the Crown Prince of the Shangwu Dynasty suddenly didn’t want the National Master to win this battle.
Because he felt that if the National Master were to win, then what was the point of him being Crown Prince?
Even if he, the Crown Prince, were to become the Emperor of the Shangwu Dynasty in the future, wouldn’t he still be controlled by the other person?
Wouldn’t that just make him a puppet Emperor? Does a puppet Emperor have any real power? On the surface, it might seem like the power is quite substantial since he would still be an Emperor, but in reality, when it comes to making significant decisions, how could the voice of a puppet Emperor outweigh the voice of the true power behind the throne?
At that time, the mastermind behind the scenes might make a puppet emperor busy with just a few words. Even if this puppet emperor displeased the mastermind, he could end up just like his father. Eventually, the position of Emperor would fall to someone else, allowing another to be that puppet.
Thinking back and forth, it seemed, he always was the displeasing one. The Crown Prince of the Shangwu Dynasty felt like a frog in warm water, wanting to jump out, but there was a pot lid trapping him. Moreover, the water was getting hotter, making him very anxious.
...
Meanwhile,
Yun Jiuqing, who had already escaped far away, couldn’t help but gasp for air, slowing her pace slightly due to her exhaustion.
When she turned to look behind her, she saw the ravaged scene. The huge noises coming from behind especially terrified her, making her instinctively touch her chest, "Thank goodness I ran fast, if I had been slower, I might have been left behind there. Also fortunate that Daoist Priest Fan warned me in time."
Xing Fengzi was also slightly out of breath, given the fast pace of the escape he too was somewhat overwhelmed. After catching his breath, Xing Fengzi said, "Let’s rest for a few breaths then quickly leave this place, because I feel that this place is not particularly safe either."
"Freaking hell... have we not run far enough yet? Can these two people fighting be even more terrifying than dealing with an Evil God?" Da Hu on the side didn’t feel tired but was rather annoyed.
Snap!
Yan Dalong slapped his foolish brother on the back of the head, gritting his teeth and scolding, "Can you not use such foul language at this time? Someone who doesn’t know might think you are cursing Brother Fan Wu!"
Then he looked at Old Blue Ox, "Speaking of which, why can this ox also run so fast? We have been running fast enough, yet this ox can keep up, even pulling a coffin? How can it catch up?"
"This... perhaps, it’s because of Daoist Fan Wu’s mount," Bai Sheng, who had been silent, couldn’t help but speak up, resigned to just letting things take their course.
...
On the other hand,
In just a short time, less than twenty breaths, Fan Wu and the Evil Immortal had already exchanged dozens of rounds. It was because they fought so many rounds that the commotion was tremendous, enough to shake the entire Imperial City.
It even made everyone in the Imperial City somewhat fearful and anxious, because the noise was so great that many buildings sustained varying degrees of damage, as if the entire Imperial City was experiencing a seismic dragon stirring.
Although it was merely a battle between two cultivators, it felt like a natural disaster sweeping through the entire city, incredibly terrifying.
Utterly terrifying!
