226: Princess Su Jinrou

Yang Lingchen and the other two walked out of the Teleportation Array and arrived directly on the main street of Tianfeng City.

Although they were both among the Top Ten Major Powers in the Tianfeng World, the strength of the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty far surpassed that of the Tianluo Domain.

Among the Tianfeng Top Ten Major Powers, the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty ranked fourth, while the Tianluo Domain ranked tenth; the gap between the two sides was self-evident.

Therefore, the prosperity of Tianfeng City was far beyond what Tianluo City could compare to.

The streets were bustling with pedestrians and traffic, and various shops were dazzlingly arrayed, with selling cries and shouts rising and falling... Inside the Imperial Palace of the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty.

A slightly plump woman with a fierce appearance was looking through Yang Lingchen's profile.

This woman was none other than the Eldest Princess Su Jinrou of the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty, who possessed the highest Cultivation talent.

Compared to the other princesses, Su Jinrou’s appearance was indeed a bit ugly, but fortunately, she was uniquely gifted and became the youngest Heavenly Emperor of the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty, thus earning the deep affection of the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty's Emperor.

At this moment, she was wearing a luxurious and grand Phoenix Robe, and her tall, robust figure and fleshy face made her look extremely fierce and domineering.

Her cold gaze swept over the profile, seemingly calculating something.

Just then, a woman wearing a green silk dress walked in with light, small steps.

“Eldest Princess, we have news about Yang Lingchen.”

The Woman in Green Silk Dress said respectfully, her voice soft and cautious.

“Oh!” Su Jinrou's cold eyes lifted slightly. She said, “If this Princess is not mistaken, he should have already arrived at Tianfeng City.”

Her voice was low and hoarse, carrying an undeniable authority.

“Yes, Princess. Our people just sent word that Yang Lingchen has arrived at Tianfeng City.”

The Woman in Green Silk Dress said respectfully, her head always lowered, not daring to look directly at Su Jinrou.

“Have people protect him around the clock. Make sure no one harms him.”

Su Jinrou's thick lips curled into a cold, sinister smile, a smile that sent chills down one's spine.

“Yes, Princess.”

The Woman in Green Silk Dress bowed and slowly retreated, her steps light and cautious, as if afraid of making the slightest sound that might displease the Eldest Princess.

“Heaven is treating this Princess quite well. The Pure Yang Body, which appears once every hundred thousand years, has actually been found by this Princess. This is the best Cauldron for Dual Cultivation.”

Su Jinrou murmured softly, her eyes flashing with greedy light, as if she could already see the wonderful scene of her power greatly increasing... Tianfeng Imperial City, Drunken Spring Pavilion.

“Oh my! Young Master Huo, you haven't been here for a long time.”

As Yang Lingchen and the other two walked into the Drunken Spring Pavilion, a woman around thirty years old with a graceful figure greeted them. She swayed her waist, her face filled with a flattering smile.

“Sister Hua, long time no see.”

Huo Du greeted her, a hint of awkwardness on his face.

“Young Master Huo, please wait a moment.”

Sister Hua gave a charming smile, then yelled out: “Azu, Ale, come out and receive the guest!”

“Oh dear! Huohuo, I've missed you terribly!”

Just then, two handsome, muscular men rushed down from the second floor and hugged Huo Du's arms, one on the left and one on the right.

“Holy sh*t, scram!”

Seeing this, Huo Du's face instantly turned green. He kicked out with both feet, sending the two men flying.

“Huohuo, how could you treat us like this? Have you forgotten the eternal vows we made?” one of the men said aggrievedly, his face full of resentment.

“Scram, or I'll kill you.” Huo Du roared completely, veins popping out on his forehead.

Seeing this, Sister Hua quickly spoke: “Oh dear! Young Master Huo, were they not serving you well enough? Should this servant switch them out for two more vigorous ones?”

“Shut up! I'm normal now! Arrange women for me, women, understand?”

Huo Du was so angry his face turned green, and he shouted loudly.

“Understood, understood, Young Master Huo, please wait a moment, I'll arrange everything right away.” After Sister Hua finished speaking, she yelled out again: “Bing'er, Ying'er, Fei'er, come out and receive the guests.”

“Prepare the best Private Room for me.”

Huo Du's expression finally softened, and he directly tossed ten thousand Spirit Crystals to Sister Hua.

Inside the Private Room on the second floor.

“Brother Yang, how do you think we should issue the challenge for this match?” Wang Chen asked, his expression somewhat serious.

“Tianfeng City has a Challenge Stage, right?” Yang Lingchen asked, his gaze firm.

“Of course it does.” Huo Du replied.

“Then just hang the Challenge Banner directly on the Challenge Stage.” Yang Lingchen said decisively.

“Won't that be too high-profile?”

Wang Chen said, his brow slightly furrowed, looking somewhat worried.

“No worries. Since we are challenging the number one on the divine martial ranking, don't be afraid to be high-profile.” Yang Lingchen said, his expression confident.

“I think so too. Let's relax tonight, and it won't be too late to hang the banner tomorrow.” Huo Du chuckled, his eyes full of anticipation.

A night passed in the blink of an eye.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Yang Lingchen and the other two arrived at the Tengfeng City Challenge Stage early.

After hanging the Challenge Banner, the three of them started Playing Landlord on the arena.

After some guidance from Yang Lingchen, Wang Chen and Huo Du quickly became addicted.

They sat together, concentrating intently on the cards in their hands, sometimes excited, sometimes annoyed.

As the sky gradually brightened, people soon noticed the Challenge Banner hanging on the arena.

Before long, many spectators gathered below the arena.

“Look quickly, this is the Challenge Banner Yang Lingchen issued to the Eighteenth Prince.” One of the onlookers said, his voice full of surprise.

“This Yang Lingchen is too bold, isn't he? He actually dares to challenge the Eighteenth Prince.” Another man said, his face full of disbelief.

“Don't underestimate Yang Lingchen. You probably don't know this yet, but yesterday Yang Lingchen defeated Huo Du in the Tianluo Domain.”

“Is that true?”

“Of course it's true.”

“Even if he really defeated Huo Du, he still doesn't have the qualifications to challenge the Eighteenth Prince!”

“That's hard to say. Rumor has it that since Yang Lingchen rose to prominence, no one has been able to withstand a single move from him.”

“Then this fight is going to be interesting! I'm looking forward to it!”

At this moment, the surrounding crowd began discussing animatedly, various voices intertwining, creating a lively yet tense atmosphere... Inside the Imperial Palace of the Tianfeng Holy Dynasty, at the Eighteenth Prince's Residence.

A young man wearing a magnificent Brocade Robe, with a robust physique and an extraordinary bearing, was fishing by an Artificial Lake.

This young man with the extraordinary bearing was the Eighteenth Prince, Prince Su Shiji. The scenery by the lake was beautiful, the water was crystal clear, and fish swam freely in it.

Just then, a Eunuch walked over with light steps, bowing slightly and saying, “Your Highness.”

“What is it?” Prince Su Shiji's voice was steady and reserved. He did not turn his head, still fishing quietly, as if everything around him had nothing to do with him.

“Your Highness, someone has hung a banner on the Challenge Stage in the city, explicitly challenging you by name.” The Eunuch said calmly.

“Is it Zhong Kui?”

Prince Su Shiji said flatly, the Fishing Rod in his hand not shaking at all.

“No, it is a young man named Yang Lingchen. This person is a Dark Horse who has recently risen, currently on a winning streak. We have news that he just defeated Huo Du.” The Eunuch whispered.

“Hmph!” Prince Su Shiji sneered, saying, “I know. You may leave!”

A hint of disdain appeared on his face; he clearly did not take Yang Lingchen seriously.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The Eunuch bowed slightly and slowly retreated... Yang Lingchen and the other two continued Playing Landlord on the arena for the entire day. Even after dark, the Eighteenth Prince still had not arrived.

“Brother Yang, what if the Eighteenth Prince doesn't show up?” Wang Chen asked, looking anxious.

“Don't worry, he will definitely come tomorrow.” Yang Lingchen curled his lips into a confident smile, his eyes firm.

“How can you be so sure he will come?” Wang Chen asked, his face full of confusion.

“His not coming today is just to give me a warning shot and leave me hanging. But if he doesn't come tomorrow, it will damage his imperial family's reputation, so he will definitely come tomorrow.” Yang Lingchen said, his analysis sound.

“Brother Yang is right. This Prince Su Shiji usually loves to show off. No matter who challenges him, he always comes on the second day, just to leave the opponent waiting for a day first.” Huo Du said, his face full of certainty.

“How about this! How about the three of us Play Landlord again tonight?” Yang Lingchen chuckled, a sly light flashing in his eyes.

“I think it's more practical to go to the Drunken Spring Pavilion to relax. If I keep playing against you, I won't even be able to afford the fare for the Teleportation Array.”

Huo Du and Wang Chen quickly shook their heads. They had already lost over a million Spirit Crystals Playing Landlord today, so where would they dare to continue playing against Yang Lingchen?

That evening, Yang Lingchen and the other two returned to the Drunken Spring Pavilion.

As soon as they entered the door, Sister Hua greeted them warmly: “Three Young Masters, please come in!”

The three of them fully enjoyed their relaxing time in the Drunken Spring Pavilion.
