Chapter 131: Remnants of the Imperial Relic (Short Chapter, Please Subscribe)_3
Under the watchful gaze of countless strong figures,
Zhang Shunlong, the enigmatic Sky-Man, suddenly revealed a gentle smile. His calm voice slowly rose, not loud but seeming to echo by everyone's ear.
"Princely Heir, long time no see."
The many strong figures entrenched in the Capital city were dumbfounded upon hearing Zhang Shunlong's words.
What was this situation?
This powerful Sky-Man, he knew the Town-Nation Duke's Heir?
Many of them had been waiting for Zhang Shunlong to battle it out with Duke Zhen's Mansion.
But the result…
Was this it?
This Sky-Man was also one of Duke Zhen's Mansion's people?
Thinking of this, many strong figures felt their scalps tingle.
"Damn it!! Where did Duke Zhen's Mansion find such a formidable Sky-Man!"
"Had we known that besides the Duke, there was another Sky-Man in the Capital city, even with a hundred times the courage, we wouldn't have dared to spy on the Princely Heir."
"I'm done! I'm totally done! Can't play this at all! I'm out!"
As they heard Zhang Shunlong speak, the strong figures scurried away frantically, as if desperate to escape to a distant place.
They didn't want to stay any longer.
Otherwise,
If Zhang Shunlong, this Sky-Man, decided to take action against them, they would not be able to leave when the time came.
For a Sky-Man like Zhang Shunlong, perhaps all it would take was a thought to imprison them all within this world.
Beneath Sky-Men, all are ordinary.
This wasn't a joke.
At this moment,
Strong figures who had rushed over to Duke Zhen's Mansion from all corners of the Capital city due to the commotion caused by Cheng Guang began to rise and depart.
The once restless Capital city immediately became peaceful.
Cheng Guang, who was in the Million Specie Garden, wasn't disturbed much, but he could still distinctly feel that the Qi around him became much more stable.
He slightly lifted his eyes, looking at Zhang Shunlong, and raised his eyebrows.
"When did you get back to the Capital city?"
As far as Cheng Guang knew, Zhang Shunlong had been traveling around recently, striving to build his dynasty, and should not have appeared near the Capital city at this time.
Could it be because of him again?
Cheng Guang pondered internally.
Zhang Shunlong descended slowly from the high sky, walking toward Duke Zhen's Mansion. He reached the airspace above the Mansion but didn't enter, simply looking at Cheng Guang from a distance.
After observing Cheng Guang for a moment, he slowly gave a nod of respect.
"I was just passing by and sensed such a disturbance, so I came to have a look."
Zhang Shunlong said, his tone pausing briefly before continuing, "The commotion the Princely Heir just caused was not insignificant. That kind of aura made even my heart tremble; it seemed somewhat like..."
Zhang Shunlong's voice trailed off towards the end, growing fainter as if even he couldn't believe the guess that had surfaced in his mind, shaking his head with a wry smile afterward.
"Let's leave it at that, who knows how long it's been, it's unlikely."
"I heard there was a Secret Realm appearing near the Capital city. I was delayed by some matters, otherwise, I would have certainly entered it to take a look."
"The disturbance the Princely Heir just caused must be related to something from those Secret Realms."
"Those Secret Realms are chances as well as dangers. The Princely Heir must be careful."
After spouting some incoherent words, Zhang Shunlong lifted his gaze again toward the sky as if watching something interesting.
"Princely Heir, I'll take my leave first."
Zhang Shunlong vanished in an instant after speaking.
Cheng Guang was momentarily stunned.
Before he could react, a thunderous outcry came from the sky.
"You!! What are you doing!!"
"I merely came to look; I didn't make a move against the Town-Nation Duke's Heir! Why are you helping him like this!?"
Booming sounds like thunder echoed from the sky.
The sound of fighting was continuous, the heavens flashing as if lightning had suddenly appeared.
Cheng Guang watched the aura in the sky, his eyes slightly bewildered.
"Heh, there really was a Sky-Man coming over."
Cheng Guang observed the sky with interest.
He also felt a bit of regret.
If Zhang Shunlong had not shown up, this Sky-Man, hidden in the shadows, might indeed have made a move against him.
At that time,
he could have tested his current strength.
Cheng Guang clicked his tongue and didn't take the matter to heart.
After all, he didn't know if Zhang Shunlong had acted for his sake.
If it was for him, driving away the Sky-Man was kind.
Cheng Guang had nothing to say about that.
If it wasn't for him, then Cheng Guang had even less to say.
As Cheng Guang contemplated, he turned and went back inside.
"Mr. Qin, it seems there won't be anything happening for a while. You can go back and rest first."
Cheng Guang said and then instructed Qing Luan to bring him some hot water.
With Qing Luan's assistance, Cheng Guang washed up quickly and then entered the bedroom, ready to rest.
After Cheng Guang entered the bedroom,
In the pavilion of Million Specie Garden,
Qin Yanqiu and Ning Qianxue caught each other's eye, and different meanings flickered in their eyes.
Qin Yanqiu's eyes, typically cool and undisturbed, had moonlight spilling over her shoulders, inexplicably giving her the likeness of a Fairy in the Moon.
"Tonight is yours to spend. After all, you haven't had the opportunity even once," said Qin Yanqiu, who seldom spoke.
Ning Qianxue, usually a chatterbox, was instead shy and at a loss for words.
She looked down slightly,
her porcelain-like face flushing with a hint of red.
"No, it wouldn't be right," she protested.
"We haven't even officially had a wedding ceremony; how could I presume to enter the Princely Heir's chamber at this time?"
