132: Chapter 132 Light-Speed ​​Face Change

“Husband! You... don't get into a conflict with Father!”

Even Qin Ruolin was getting anxious, hurriedly grabbing Ji Taichang's hand, fearing he would offend Emperor Jingxuan and invite punishment!

But it was already too late.

“Notify me... Good! Good, good, good!”

Emperor Jingxuan laughed out of extreme anger: “I want to see where you get the courage to speak to me like this!”

Boom—

As his voice fell, a blinding golden light lit up between heaven and earth. Dense Dragon Qi gathered from all directions, forming a thousand-zhang-long golden divine dragon. It was lifelike, and its Aura and pressure were not at all weaker than a Peak ninth-level Nascent Soul Stage expert as it crashed down toward Ji Taichang!

That terrifying pressure made the civil and military officials feel a surge of palpitations, a trembling sensation coming from the depths of their Souls.

“No!”

Qin Ruolin let out a cry of alarm, her face full of tension and worry as she subconsciously blocked the way in front of Ji Taichang!

But in the next moment, a scene that shocked everyone occurred.

Ji Taichang's eyes swirled with purple-gold light. He reached out with a large hand, surrounded by a sacred imperial Aura. He actually grabbed the golden divine dragon formed by the Dragon Qi and crushed it with brute force!

The golden divine dragon turned into strands of pure, dense Dragon Qi, all of which surged toward Ji Taichang and were instantly refined by him!

“W-What?!”

“That was the Dragon Vein Power of the Great Wu Dynasty, and he actually refined it??”

“Could he also be a member of the Imperial Family?”

The civil and military officials were greatly shocked, truly startled beyond measure.

The Dragon Vein Power of the Great Wu Dynasty was extremely noble. Aside from Emperor Jingxuan, only a handful of people in the Imperial Family were qualified to use it. Furthermore, as the current Emperor, Emperor Jingxuan had absolute control over the Dragon Vein Power!

Logically speaking, even other experts of the Imperial Family should not have been able to snatch this Dragon Qi from Emperor Jingxuan's hands!

“This... is impossible!”

Even Emperor Jingxuan could hardly maintain his previously calm appearance; his face was somewhat distorted.

He immediately picked up the Imperial Jade Seal and directly mobilized even more Dragon Vein Power!

In an instant.

The entire Imperial Palace shook. Auspicious clouds filled the sky, and strand after strand of dense Dragon Qi surged from the ground, filled with a peaceful and sacred Aura that resonated with heaven and earth.

Under Emperor Jingxuan's control.

All this Dragon Qi converged to form a Golden Imperial Sword, emitting endless Divine Might and giving off a sense of infinite oppression!

That Aura was even comparable to the full-strength strike of a Soul Transformation Stage expert!

Emperor Jingxuan was truly enraged, vowing to take Ji Taichang down!

“Good timing!”

Ji Taichang, however, was not surprised but delighted, his mouth curling upward!

As the Golden Imperial Sword slashed toward him, Ji Taichang directly activated the Ziwei Imperial Spirit Body with full force. Radiant light swirled between his fingers, his long black hair danced wildly, and his entire being emitted a grand imperial majesty, as if he were transforming into a Heavenly Emperor!

Dong!!

Ji Taichang struck the Imperial Sword with a palm. Infinite golden light erupted between the two, stinging the eyes of the officials until they shed bloody tears, unable to look directly!

Under the horrified gazes of Emperor Jingxuan and the others.

Ji Taichang shattered the Imperial Sword with a single palm strike, turning it back into strands of dense Dragon Qi.

Then, Ji Taichang moved his hands, directly drawing the Dragon Qi into his body and forcibly refining it!

The Ziwei Imperial Spirit Body devoured the Dragon Qi frantically, like parched earth meeting sweet rain, greedily absorbing the Dragon Qi and forcibly taking it as its own!

Ji Taichang's cultivation Aura also exploded level by level, reaching the Peak of the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Stage in one breath, not far from the eighth level.

“What!?”

Emperor Jingxuan stood up abruptly, a look of horror on his face!

He could clearly sense that Ji Taichang had forcibly swallowed a significant portion of the Dragon Vein Power. This caused Emperor Jingxuan's face to distort with intense heartache!

Though the Dragon Vein Power in the capital was vast and majestic, it was the foundation accumulated by the Great Wu Dynasty over countless years!

Ji Taichang had swallowed at least several thousand years' worth of Dragon Qi in one gulp!

And hadn't Ji Taichang just broken through to the first level of the Nascent Soul Stage not long ago?

How could he have such terrifying methods!

Emperor Jingxuan's expression shifted, flickering between dark and light.

The civil and military officials were even more terrified, their scalps tingling, momentarily unsure of how to react!

“My husband is actually this strong??”

Qin Ruolin was also stunned, her rosy lips slightly parted, her beautiful face blank with shock.

“Keep going.”

Ji Taichang was still wanting more, looking at Emperor Jingxuan: “Hurry and mobilize more Dragon Vein Power, I haven't absorbed enough yet.”

Emperor Jingxuan took a deep breath, and a hearty smile suddenly appeared on his face: “Hahaha, worthy son-in-law, you must be joking.”

“Just now, I was merely testing your skills with a slight move. I didn't expect you to truly be a dragon among men with such extraordinary methods...”

Emperor Jingxuan's light-speed change of face left all the officials stunned.

Shi Lezhi and the other envoys of the Great Yu Dynasty were so angry they jumped up on the spot: “What worthy son-in-law!? The Thirteenth Princess is a consort of our Emperor Yuanxi. Your Great Wu Dynasty cannot go back on its word!”

“I object to this marr—”

Before they could finish their words, Emperor Jingxuan's expression suddenly turned cold: “Men, throw them out!”

“Yes!”

At Emperor Jingxuan's command, two teams of gold-armored guards immediately rushed in and forcibly dragged Shi Lezhi and the other envoys out.

“I can agree to your marriage with Linlin, but there is one requirement.”

Emperor Jingxuan rubbed his hands together and said with a smile: “A Devil Cave has appeared in the northwestern border region of the Great Wu Dynasty. Not only is Devilish Qi eroding the land, but a large number of Devil Creatures have appeared, causing heavy casualties at the border...”

“Since you want to marry Linlin, as the consort of the Great Wu Dynasty, it is only right and proper for you to help.”

“I want you and the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect to send experts to assist the border army in suppressing the Devil Cave!”

The reason Emperor Jingxuan wanted to marry Qin Ruolin to Emperor Yuanxi was to use the power of the Great Yu Dynasty to suppress the Devil Cave!

Now that Ji Taichang had displayed extraordinary combat power and the Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect behind him was also mysterious and powerful, Emperor Jingxuan naturally had the intention to win him over!

“A large number of Devil Creatures?”

Ji Taichang's heart stirred, and he immediately asked: “What exactly are those Devil Creatures? Do they have Souls?”

Emperor Jingxuan explained: “Those Devil Creatures look similar to Yao Beasts, but their appearance is hideous and strange. They can absorb Devilish Qi to strengthen themselves, making them stronger than average Yao Beasts. They also possess Souls...”

Hearing this, Ji Taichang was instantly overjoyed!

He was just worrying about where to collect Souls.

With a large number of Devil Creatures emerging from the Devil Cave, he could refine them into the human emperor flag!

“Very well.”

Ji Taichang nodded: “Although my Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect is a hidden Sect, we also care for the people of the world. Since a Devil Cave is bringing chaos to the world, there is no way my Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect will sit idly by!”

“I am irreconcilable with Devil Creatures!”

He stood with his hands behind his back, his voice powerful and resonant, as if his entire being was emitting the light of justice, causing the hearts of all the officials to tremble!
