Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor-Chapter 391 - 401: A Bunch of Waste

"Hmph, those Grand Scholars of the Cabinet, each one so full of themselves, looking down on everyone. I can’t be bothered to argue with them, simply send the Forbidden Army to surround the Cabinet."

"As for the thirteenth brother, his birth mother, Noble concubine Liang has already fallen into my hands, being held under house arrest within the deep palace. Killing him wouldn’t be difficult at all."

"Eunuch Hong, draft an imperial edict in the Holy Emperor’s name, dispatch the personal eunuch by my imperial father’s side, and summon Prince Jianyun to the palace for discussions. When the time comes, just take him down and charge him with the crime of assassinating the king and plotting rebellion."

The gaze of Prince Jianyun is filled with chilling coldness, and his scheming is relentlessly venomous.

Deprived of sword meridians, he is no longer the Divine Dragon that once soared through the clouds, looking down upon all heroes. Instead, he has become a useless person living in the shadows.

The only way he could seek revenge is by attaining a higher position, mobilizing the power of a nation, and killing Chu Feng.

As for whether he can take back the Nine Yang Sword Veins, that remains uncertain.

After all, the sword meridians originally belonged to Chu Feng, and when Chu Feng was just born, the veins were still very tender. It was relatively easy to strip them away using a secret technique.

Now, even if Chu Feng is killed, it is very difficult to snatch away his Nine Yang Sword Veins.

"Chu Feng, you have now defected from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. Without their protection, what will you use to fight against me?"

"I must use the force of thunderous might to exterminate the entire Chu bloodline and all nine of their clans!"

Every time Prince Jianyun thinks of the humiliation at the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, when he was stepped on by Chu Feng and had his sword meridians taken back, he cannot help but clench his fists so tight that his fingernails dig into his flesh.

Perhaps, in his wildest dreams, he could never imagine that Chu Feng is an extraordinary devil.

Although he has left the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, he was soon personally welcomed back by the Sect Master.

...

Within the Imperial Palace, a bloody political struggle is unfolding.

Prince Jianyun, with thunderous methods, lures the Thirteenth Prince into the deep palace and directly executes him. He even pins the crime of assassination and rebellion on the Thirteenth Prince.

Essentially, making the Thirteenth Prince carry the blame.

Besides this, the Cabinet has also been surrounded by the Forbidden Army. Whether it is the Prime Minister or other important Ministers of the Cabinet, none are allowed to leave.

Under the bloody suppression of Prince Jianyun, the entire Jianyun Dynasty is under his control.

"All conditions are now ready, just need to eliminate the Chu Brothers, and I will ascend to the Emperor’s Throne!" Prince Jianyun reveals a bloodthirsty expression akin to a lone wolf.

He is filled with intense anticipation.

Just then, a trusted aide hurriedly rushes in.

Thud!

He kneels on the ground and urgently reports, "Your Highness, the latest military intel from Blood Sun City has arrived. Chu Feng has proclaimed himself the new king of Sword King Mansion and, after taking control of Blood Sun City’s Remnant Army, attacked General Yuan’s army of 150,000 that very night."

"And he has... won..."

The trusted aide reports this unfavorable result with much trepidation.

"Trash! Trash!"

"Blood Sun City had only 40-50 thousand Remnant Soldiers, yet under Chu Feng’s leadership, they defeated 150,000 Elite Soldiers. What use is Yuan Hao?"

Prince Jianyun roars in thunderous fury.

He was victorious in Sword Cloud Royal City, only to find out that Chu Feng was equally victorious in Blood Sun City.

"We must not let that Chu brat escape. Nor can we allow them to gather strength. I shall personally go to Blood Sun City to oversee the army." Under his trembling wrath, Prince Jianyun feels extremely uneasy.

"Your Highness, do not panic. Though General Yuan has been defeated, two supportive armies have also arrived one after another, encircling the Chu Brothers."

The Crown Prince’s Tutor walks in with two urgent military reports.

"Good!"

Prince Jianyun, still furious, is now slightly relieved. Anxious and burning with impatience, he sets off with his troops that very day, rushing towards Blood Sun City to command personally.

Within the Imperial Palace, presided over by the Empress, Crown Prince’s Tutor Shangqiu, Chief Eunuch of the Ritual Supervision Eunuch Hong, and others, there should be no incidents.

...

At Blood Sun City, Chu Feng personally led his soldiers and officers in a night raid on the enemy camp, securing a major victory.

The seized food, arrows, and other military supplies were sufficient to sustain an army of fifty thousand for over a month. Morale was soaring; everyone was filled with joy and hope.

However, Chu Feng was not blinded by the victory.

Because two reinforcements of the enemy forces were arriving quickly, and both were formidable elite soldiers. Their numbers were also extremely terrifying.

Each reinforcement had an army of two hundred thousand; combined they totalled four hundred thousand.

Adding to that the one hundred and fifty thousand troops led by Yuan Hao, even though they had suffered losses, there still were over one hundred and twenty thousand.

In total, there were five hundred and twenty thousand troops, more than ten times the size of Chu Feng’s forces.

In such a scenario, if Chu Feng were to be carried away by victory and not retreat to Blood Sun City in time, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Of course, if the situation were truly to reach the worst-case scenario, Chu Feng still had options. For this expedition, he brought no less than five hundred Great Sword Masters, as well as multiple Sword Saints, and even three Sword Gods.

He had the power to turn the tide and reverse the situation.

Chu Feng had his profound reasons for not directly attacking the Imperial Palace with his powerful followers.

If he invaded the Imperial Palace with a big group of powerful fighters and killed the Jianyun Emperor and Prince Jianyun, it would be difficult for him to become the Monarch. People all over the world would not accept him.

Whether it be the common people, the Ministers, or the soldiers, all would oppose him.

A title not rightfully held cannot command proper discourse.

Now, leading an army in an uprising at Blood Sun City, he was nobly proclaiming his crusade against the Jianyun Dynasty. Standing at the pinnacle of righteousness, he was able to continuously gather the support of the common people and the army, ultimately smoothing the way to seize the Emperor’s Throne.

The experts from the Ten Thousand Sword Sect could only be used as weapons of mass destruction.

Furthermore, by using this most exhausting and clumsiest method to clear the name and restore the honor of Sword King Mansion, Chu Feng had another intention. He wanted to lure out all those involved in the massacre of Sword King Mansion back in the day.

At that point, he could once and for all settle the score with all his enemies.

There was another matter that Chu Feng was very concerned about.

It was about the treasure that had been lost after his father’s death. It was an item that could help someone break through to the Sword Saint Cultivation.

Chu Feng was eager to retrieve it.

He secretly speculated that the treasure must have ended up in the hands of the Sword Cloud Imperial Family.

Right after Chu Feng and his men retreated back into Blood Sun City, the enemy forces closely followed, besieging Blood Sun City once more.

But they didn’t attack right away.

They were waiting.

Waiting for Prince Jianyun to arrive and take command.

...

Chu Feng stood atop the reef tower on the city walls, gazing into the distance towards the east. He saw a tremendously lavish caravan swiftly advancing along the official road, rushing quickly in this direction.

In the center of the caravan, there was an extravagantly oversized carriage that was particularly conspicuous. Surrounded by the luxury of sunshades and canopies, closely guarded by the Forbidden Army on both sides.

Leading the carriage were dragons and horses, one in ten thousand.

Strong limbs, great endurance, capable of traveling three thousand miles a day with no issues.

"Prince Jianyun has arrived!"

Standing behind Chu Feng was Li Shishi, charming and lovely. She was responsible for controlling all of the intelligence information.
