Chapter 0393: Battle at the Royal Palace

Qin Yun’s sudden voice left everyone in the square in shock.

Everyone turned around to see who had the guts to insult the Martial King of Heavenly Fire so boldly.

Qin Yun, accompanied by Jiang Dazhu, slowly walked toward the high platform in the center of the square.

"Martial King of Heavenly Fire, you scum, release the leader of my Nine Extremes Profound Sect now!" Qin Yun shouted as he approached.

The Martial King of Heavenly Fire stood on the high platform, watching Qin Yun approach, his face also showing surprise.

He sensed that Qin Yun’s aura was only at the second level of the Martial Dao realm, yet he dared to be so insolent in front of a Martial King.

"Qin Yun!" Hong Yan, standing on the high platform, exclaimed in surprise upon recognizing Qin Yun.

Upon hearing the name "Qin Yun," everyone was secretly shocked and paid even closer attention to Qin Yun’s face.

This was the Qin Yun who had caused so much trouble for the Sword Profound Mountain!

At the scene, there were also people from the Sword Profound Mountain, who now looked at Qin Yun with anger.

The Martial King of Heavenly Fire was secretly alarmed because he knew Qin Yun had left the city, and they had sent people to hunt him down.

Yet now, Qin Yun was alive and appeared here.

"Qin Yun, you’ve come just in time! You thief who steals others’ Dao artifacts, today I will execute justice on behalf of heaven!" the Martial King of Heavenly Fire coldly shouted. "Hand over the Heavenly Lion Subduing Dragon Cauldron now!"

The Heavenly Lion Subduing Dragon Cauldron in Qin Yun’s hand was indeed very covetable, even for the Martial King of Heavenly Fire.

"You Martial King who serves the evil forces, how dare you bark here? You are nothing but a dog of the Totem Pavilion!" Qin Yun angrily cursed.

The leaders and elders of the Profound-level sects in the square were all extremely shocked.

They naturally knew of the existence of the Totem Pavilion, but it was a very taboo subject, never mentioned nor discussed publicly.

And now, Qin Yun had brought up the Totem Pavilion and cursed it as a demonic sect, which was tantamount to openly opposing the Totem Pavilion.

"Kill him quickly!" the Martial King of Heavenly Fire also panicked and hurriedly shouted.

Three warriors at the peak of the Xuan Martial realm suddenly flew over, blocking the advancing Qin Yun and Jiang Dazhu.

"Qin Yun, you dare to insult the Totem Pavilion? Prepare to die!" an elder angrily said, slashing a palm toward Qin Yun.

As the elder swung his palm, lightning flashed and thunder roared in the night sky, the earth shook, and gusts of wind swept up.

People nearby quickly left their seats, and the tables and chairs were blown over and shattered.

It was just one elder at the peak of the Xuan Martial realm making a move, but the power was terrifying.

After the elder’s palm strike, Jiang Dazhu stepped forward with a swift motion, also slashing his palm toward the elder’s arm.

When Jiang Dazhu struck, there was still no fluctuation of aura, making him seem like a very ordinary warrior.

However, the speed of his palm strike was extremely fast.

Swish!

After Jiang Dazhu’s palm strike, it hit the elder’s wrist, actually chopping off the hand!

The palm of a peak Xuan Martial realm warrior was actually severed by a bare hand strike!

Qin Yun had initially thought Jiang Dazhu was unreliable, but he was shocked by his terrifying strength!

The crowd was stunned, especially the Martial King of Heavenly Fire, who stared at Jiang Dazhu in shock, trying to recall who he was.

After Jiang Dazhu struck with his palm, he paused briefly, then launched a second strike!

With lightning-fast palm strikes, he targeted the elder's neck!

In an instant!

The elder's head was severed and hit the ground!

A peak Xuan Martial realm warrior had been killed!

Qin Yun stared at Jiang Dazhu's palm, which was like a lethal weapon!

"You’re all trash!" Jiang Dazhu sneered, his figure blurring as he lunged forward, relentlessly attacking the other two peak Xuan Martial realm elders!

In a few swift strikes, Jiang Dazhu killed the two peak Xuan Martial realm warriors before they could react!

The three peak Xuan Martial realm warriors, all hall masters of the Totem Pavilion, were slain in an instant!

This meant their killer was of the Martial King realm!

The elder beside Qin Yun was a Martial King realm expert, shocking everyone and sending them fleeing.

"Who are you?" the Martial King of Heavenly Fire bellowed from the high platform.

"You, a lackey of the Totem Pavilion, don’t deserve to know my name!" Jiang Dazhu vanished and reappeared on the high platform, slamming his palm into the Martial King of Heavenly Fire!

The Martial King of Heavenly Fire was hurled into a distant tower, the impact shattering it and shaking the ground!

Qin Yun flew to the high platform, using Mo Mo’s power to break the chains and free Wei Zhongzheng.

"Thank you, Seventh Prince!" Qin Yun said to Hong Yan.

"Get out of here now!" Hong Yan frowned. "I didn’t see this coming!"

Wei Zhongzheng eyed the approaching warriors and asked, "Seventh Prince, isn’t your father stepping in?"

"Exactly! He’s staying neutral," Hong Yan said. "This is all I can do. Good luck!"

With that, Hong Yan flew off the platform.

In the distance, Jiang Dazhu and the Martial King of Heavenly Fire clashed in the sky, their fiery battle lighting up the night and shaking the royal city.

The city’s residents fled their homes, fearing they’d collapse.

"Xiao Yun, who’s that senior?" Wei Zhongzheng asked quickly after swallowing a pill.

"I don’t know who he is, but he’s insanely powerful! He clearly hates the Totem Pavilion..." Before Qin Yun could finish, Wei Zhongzheng flew out and repelled an attacking Xuan Martial realm warrior.

"Xiao Yun, get going! As long as there’s no Martial King, I’m not afraid of anyone!" Wei Zhongzheng said.

Qin Yun quickly stepped on the Star Profound Steps, attempting to leave through the air, but was pushed back by a sudden burst of flame!

"Leaving? Not without my permission!" A long-faced man in a fiery cloak appeared in the air, wielding a flaming fan as he glared down at Qin Yun.

From afar, Hong Yan shouted, "Qin Yun, that is the Ninth Disciple of the Heavenly Fire Martial Emperor, the Prince of the Fire Fan! He is at the third level of martial arts, possesses the Eight Yang Meridians, dual Fire Souls, and also dual Core Pills!"

The Prince of the Fire Fan laughed heartily, waving his fan fiercely towards Qin Yun below, igniting a massive wave of fire!

With such a great battle occurring in the palace, the Hong Ying Martial Emperor still did not intervene, truly not planning to get involved!

Fire was the least of Qin Yun's fears; the flames from the Prince of the Fire Fan could hardly harm him!

He stomped forcefully, generating a shockwave that scattered the flames around him!

Suddenly, a gust of wind came from afar, carrying the essence of lightning, moving at an incredible speed.

"Ah!" As the lightning struck, a white figure darted in, blocking the lightning.

The white figure was blasted by the fierce lightning and hurled away!

Qin Yun quickly caught the person, who turned out to be Hong Mengshu!

"Yun, get out of here! The one who ambushed you was the Guest of Wind and Thunder, the Eighth Disciple of the Heavenly Fire Martial Emperor, who is at the fourth level of martial arts. His Wind Thunder Soul is Purple Gold grade!" Hong Mengshu's mouth was bleeding, and she was severely injured.

"Nine Princess, is Hongwu Country meddling in this affair? Then don't blame us for not holding back!" The Prince of the Fire Fan in the air said coldly, "You better leave now!"

Seeing Hong Mengshu gravely injured, Qin Yun's rage boiled over!

Jiang Dazhu clashed fiercely with the Heavenly Fire Martial Emperor in the distant sky, while Wei Zhongzheng was encircled by warriors from the Xuan Martial and Spirit Martial realms. At this moment, no one could help him!

The powerful figures from distant sects were merely watching from afar, taking in the spectacle.

"Hong Yan, come and take Mengshu away!" Qin Yun's icy voice echoed through the palace, heavy with killing intent and authority.

Hong Yan swiftly flew over and took the injured Hong Mengshu away!

Qin Yun clenched his fists tightly, coldly staring at the Prince of the Fire Fan in the air, also sensing that the hidden Guest of Wind and Thunder had launched an attack on him.

"Beasts of the Totem Pavilion, die!" Qin Yun roared in anger, channeling the power of the Dragon Boots, propelling himself skyward like a bolt of lightning.

His sudden burst of speed caught the Prince of the Fire Fan off guard and drew gasps of amazement from the distant onlookers.

"Master..." Sensing Qin Yun's approach and the terrifying power he wielded, the Prince of the Fire Fan knew his end was near and cried out in terror.

But before he could finish, a flash of cold light came up!

Qin Yun, wielding a top-grade spirit blade, unleashed the Six Forms of Wind Slash!

As the blade rose, the force was akin to a tempest and surging waves, conjuring a lightning strike!

As the blade fell, the ensuing shockwave quaked the earth and crumbled mountains, as if splitting rivers and waves!

All of this happened in an instant!

The Prince of the Fire Fan was also instantly sliced into pieces by the Six Forms of Wind Slash, scattering on the shattered ground!

Everyone was horrified; the most favored Ninth Disciple of the Heavenly Fire Martial Emperor was actually turned into mincemeat!

The Prince of the Fire Fan, with his dual Fire Souls and Eight Yang Meridians, was a super talent, and only in his twenties, already at the third level of martial arts!

Yet now, he was instantly killed by Qin Yun, who was only at the second level of martial arts!

"Master, the Ninth Disciple is dead, killed by Qin Yun!" A voice, like an angry thunderclap, resounded across the sky; it was the voice of the Guest of Wind and Thunder.

"Ninth Brother!" The Heavenly Fire Martial Emperor roared in the distance, shaking the ground once again.

The Wind Thunder Guest also appeared, a short but stout man wielding a long rod crackling with electricity, radiating a terrifying presence.

Someone in the distance exclaimed, "That's a mystical weapon, the Thunder Wave Rod!"

"Strike out, the thunder surges like waves!"

"Truly a disciple of the Heavenly Fire Martial Emperor, to possess such a fearsome mystical weapon!"

The Wind Thunder Guest coldly stared at Qin Yun, "No one has ever dared to challenge the Totem Pavilion like this, you are the first! Now, you’ve forced our Totem Pavilion into the open, and you will pay a heavy price!"

"You lackey of the Totem Pavilion, why speak human words? Why don’t you bark for us? You serve as a dog but can't even bark, what an incompetent dog you are!" Qin Yun glared at the Wind Thunder Guest, his anger boiling over, for it was this man who had injured Hong Mengshu.
