Dominating Martial King-Chapter 1575 - 537: You’ll Have to Face My Blade First
It was only after half a moment that the voice of Ween Zhiyi echoed across the sky.
Her voice was icy cold: "Please, Chu Xisheng, allow them to return to the city. They wrongfully wielded arms intending to harm you, and for their disrespect and discourtesy towards you, I will definitely impose heavy punishment."
Chu Xisheng nodded slightly with a blank expression: "Considering Zhu Yi, I can let them go, but—do not let this happen again!"
With a sweep of his robe sleeve, he withdrew the oppressive Sword Intent.
Zhangsun Ruoli felt her mind relax and immediately leapt into the air, suspended mid-air.
Her hand pressed on the ’Divine Chi Sword’, she looked at Chu Xisheng with unwilling anger and hatred.
Zhangsun Ruoli was seething with rage for the extremely humiliating scene just now.
Also, this guy dared to call mother ’Zhu Yi’ in front of so many people.
Mother didn’t even have any reaction.
Zhangsun Ruoli wished she could again swing her sword and chop off Chu Xisheng’s head.
The next moment, she heard the voice of Ween Zhiyi respond: "I will not let them have another chance!"
Accompanying this voice was a cold snort.
This sound reached Zhangsun Ruoli’s ears, making her whole body tremble, a thin layer of ice covering her body.
Zhangsun Ruoli knew this was a warning from Ween Zhiyi to her.
She had to constrain the kill intent in her eyes.
Actually, without Ween Zhiyi backing her, she didn’t dare to cause trouble again.
Before finding a way to counter the ’Divine Intent Touch Death Blade’, it would be self-humiliation.
And right after Zhangsun Ruoli and Gui Haoyuan with others full of humiliation flew away in retreat.
Feng San walked up to Chu Xisheng’s side, he was thoughtful: "There seems to be a big problem with these people, they are afraid of something, wanting to drive you away, Lord."
Chu Xisheng’s lips slightly curved up, a cold gleam in his eyes: "I see it!"
The situation in Extreme East Ice City was getting increasingly strange.
What exactly are they scheming?
"This Lord Wen also has the same problem as Lady Matriarch, unable to be tough on relatives and subordinates, always thinking of giving them chances."
Feng San shook his head and sighed: "Lord Wen is intending to use this opportunity to impose heavier punishment to teach them a lesson. However, I feel that if she doesn’t punish now, it might be better, once heavy punishment is imposed, it might drive them desperate. I am even a little worried now, perhaps—"
Feng San’s voice paused, shaking his head.
He wanted to say it might be better to directly enter the city, participating in the Ice City Grand Ceremony in the name of the Iron Flag Gang Leader and Northern Territory Governor.
At that time, no matter what changes occurred in the city, both of them could react in time.
But he abandoned this thought immediately.
Feng San had already guessed why Chu Xisheng was unwilling to enter the city and unwilling to participate in the Ice City Grand Ceremony.
Chu Xisheng was not only the direct descendant of the famous General Chu Lingxi who once destroyed the Sea Suppressing Country, but also the direct disciple of the Formless Divine Sect.
And the fall of the Sea Suppressing Country back then was entirely self-inflicted by them, with large scale use of demonic techniques and accepting support from the Northern Giant Spirit, which led to the Six Great Divine Sects allying to intervene and join the siege.
If Chu Xisheng went to partake in the Grand Ceremony, wouldn’t it imply that his ancestors and the Formless Divine Sect were wrong?
If in the Sea Suppressing Temple, only the souls of the deceased citizens of the Sea Suppressing Country existed, it would be fine. The problem was that there were also tablets of some princes of the Sea Suppressing Country and some officials in the temple.
Ween Zhiyi had a very correct purpose, she had refused for hundreds of years to enshrine the Sea Suppression King and several key figures’ tablets in the Sea Suppressing Temple for incense offerings.
However, those few princes and ministers of the Sea Suppressing Country were not necessarily innocent.
"I’ll watch from here."
Chu Xisheng smiled while holding down the twin blades at his waist: "No matter what they intend to do, they must ask these two blades of mine."

Five hours later, just as the night faded and the dawn began to rise, the morning light sprawling across the mortal world.
Before the hour of 7am-9am, the Upper City of Extreme East Ice City was already a stretch of pure white.
The streets were filled with white banners, and the doorsteps of each household burned incense and paper money. The entire atmosphere of the Upper and Lower City was solemn and heavy, countless citizens of Ice City knelt on the ground, praying for the blessings of their ancestors’ spirits.
Although the main city of Extreme East Ice City was the largest in scale, spanning over a thousand miles in diameter, it had the fewest residents due to the intense cold atmosphere.
Only those with cultivation above Seventh Rank could reside, therefore the total population of the main city was only about two million, among which an overwhelming majority served in the various armed forces of Ice City, hence the sparse population.
However, on this day, the citizens of the various suburbs also converged into it. They first consumed Fire Sulfur Wine, allowing them to stay in the main city for two or three days without feeling the cold.
At the moment when the hour of 5am-7am changed to 7am-9am, nine resounding and mighty bell tolls rang within the city, their sound waves propagating in waves, shaking the entire city.
It was also at this moment that the ceremonial procession of Ween Zhiyi set out from the Palace City, heading grandiosely towards the Great Sea Suppressing Temple.
At the center was the carriage of Ween Zhiyi, adorned primarily in the colors of ice and snow, accented with red gold, appearing solemn and noble.
This carriage was drawn by a total of forty-eight Snow Winged Heavenly Horses, flanked on either side and at the rear by three thousand unique ’Snow Winged Sky Riders’ of the Extreme East Ice City, as well as one thousand ’Flying Dragon Knights’ in guard.
Behind them were the civil officials and generals of Extreme East Ice City.
Due to fierce battles at the front, not many generals participated in this Grand Ceremony, Second Princess ’Ice City Wind Sword’ Changsun Ruolan was not among them.
However, the citizens along the way were surprised to discover something different.
This Grand Ceremony was unlike previous ones, the Princess ’Ice City Extreme Sword’ Zhangsun Ruoli was not on Ween Zhiyi’s carriage, but instead riding a Snow Winged Heavenly Horse, marching in the rear of the procession.
Some with high Martial Arts prowess and keen senses also noticed that not only was her face pale, but her Qi-Blood was also extremely weak.
