Chapter 729: Chapter 678: God’s Might
Han Xian’er’s voice was melodious and crisp. Enhanced by True Yuan, it not only penetrated the heavily defended Array of the Governor Mansion but also spread across the entire 70-kilometer-wide Star Port district, allowing all the Heavenly Demon elites in the surrounding Commerce Guild buildings to hear it clearly.
In their minds, a single thought flashed—this Han Xian’er really came.
Some were immediately intrigued, schadenfreudically anticipating the battle between Han Xian’er and Lin Hao, something they had been waiting for eagerly. They also wondered who would ultimately emerge victorious. Others were deeply worried—Han Xian’er had already reached the late stage of the Seventh Realm Emperor Rank, equivalent to a General of the Earth Federation. It was said she even mastered an 8SSS+ Secret Skill with extremely high combat strength. Of course, Luo Wangshu wouldn’t have agreed to ‘Lin Hao’s’ duel without having some confidence in her disciple. But what if he lost?
It must be noted that Lin Hao was a key proponent of the trade opening policy within the court of the Great Song Dynasty. Previously labeled as a ‘Conservative,’ he was now considered a member of the ‘Enlightened Faction.’
In short, Lin Hao, the Hidden Crown Prince of the Great Song, held ultimate authority over the nation’s trade opening initiative. Should anything happen to him, it could directly affect the current policies of the Great Song Court.
The trade openings of the Great Song had only just begun and could hardly afford any disruptions. No one wanted to see trouble arise at such a crucial time.
“Han Xian’er?” Yu Huaxuan gently set down his teacup with a smile, “A few months ago, this woman challenged others across Luojing, acting recklessly and dominating nearly all her peers. Although it was our Great Song that was at fault initially and the truly skilled martial artists of her tier did not wish to stoop to her level, it still says a lot about her combat prowess and startling talent.”
He glanced at Lin Rui. “I wonder, Marquis of National Protection, do you have the confidence to avenge the honor of our Great Song’s officialdom?”
Lin Rui chuckled silently and, with a wave of his hand, summoned a radiant long blade hanging on the wall beside him, its dazzling brilliance piercing the air. He weighed it in his palm and said nonchalantly, “Confidence? Certainly. We’ll know soon enough.”
When Yu Huaxuan noticed the blade in Lin Rui’s hand, he couldn’t help but click his tongue, thinking that Luo Wangshu really doted on Lin Hao to an extreme.
He recognized the blade as “Quhuang Tianzhan,” a Ninth Realm Super Emperor Magic Artifact that had recently appeared at the Magic Artifact Market in Luojing.
At the time, various factions had prepared enormous sums to acquire this treasured blade, but Luo Wangshu ultimately traded the former Ninth Candidate Divine Envoy Qi Wuji’s treasured blade, “Sky Splitting Slash,” along with ten thousand taels of gold, to secure “Quhuang Tianzhan,” a weapon capable of manipulating the forces of the void and blazing light.
Lin Rui was now donning a set of Heavenly Demon Armor too, his “Tianzhi.”
