Reincarnated With A System In A Cultivation World

Chapter 325 The Imperial Palace Intervenes

"So the battle has reached a conclusion." a cold and arrogant voice came from this man, who descended down to the ground.

He looked at Liu Feng and frowned.

"How impudent! To think that you would not kneel in front of Your Grace!" he barked at Liu Feng, who was just blankly looking at him.

Liu Feng turned to look at Liu Man.

"Who is this clown? They seem to be running a little rampant lately."

Veins bulged on the man's forehead. Liu Feng had scanned him the moment he came in view. This was Tian Ju. Someone from the Imperial Palace, no doubt, as no one else in the kingdom would dare to assume that name.

This man was clearly entitled enough to dare think that even a Soul Evolution Stage expert would kneel in front of him.

"Please, show restraint, Imperial Advisor!" Cai Guo's voice distracted Tian Ju.

"This man is also an Imperial Advisor? I wonder how many are there." Liu Feng murmured.

"Cai Guo. The man of the hour is here. I trust that you have wiped clean the history of the great house of Hong? No doubt, that is the case. To think that such despicable people exist, who have no loyalty to those who serve the crown." Tian Ju spat on the floor.

Just looking at this incredibly rude man, Liu Feng had this urge to punch him in the face. But he stopped himself.

"I trust that there is a reason that the imperial advisor has come here right after the dust has settled. I certainly hope that it is not because you wished to join the Hong family's cause a second too late, because one of imperial blood has already fallen today." Cai Guo said.

"Tian Wan? Truly despicable! To think that you would kill someone from the Imperial Palace! I will make sure that the king will sentence your death for this! I will guarantee it!" Tian Ju shouted.

"Is this clown also in the second prince's faction? Or is he just plain rude and mannerless?" Liu Feng glanced at Cai Guo, not even caring about the fact that everyone around him could clearly hear him.

"Ah! The Imperial Advisor here is the advisor of the third prince. The one that has met his demise here is the Imperial Advisor of the second prince." he clarified.

"Oh! Then the first imperial advisor that we saw must be the imperial advisor for either the king or for the crown prince. It will only make sense, as he was the only reasonable person that I have seen so far from the imperial palace." Liu Feng slapped his forehead, feigning realization.

"This..." Tian Ju could only grit his teeth in frustration at this humiliation. Any more, and he would just be humiliated further. How could he possibly go against someone who defeated Tian Wan, who was stronger than him in every way?

He reached for his pockets and took out a shining token. The moment that they saw the token, everyone around who was from the Cai Family knelt on the ground.

"We greet his Majesty's verdict!" everyone shouted as their heads were pinned on the ground.

Everyone except the usual suspects, of course. Liu Feng, Liu Man, and Feng Wang, who was in another corner, all were standing upright, not having a care for anything in the world.

"You dare not kneel in front of His Majesty's verdict? How dare you! This is blasphemy. You are conspiring against the king!" Tian Ju shouted.

"Are you all talk? I mean, you have been barking since you got here. The king sent you to do something. Why don't you get to doing it?" Liu Feng shook his head.

Tian Ju shivered with rage, but he couldn't act on it. No one wanted to go against these monsters that just massacred an entire family that stood tall for hundreds of years.

"His Royal Highness, His Majesty, The Dragon of Tiandu, Tian Long, commands the head of the Cai Family, Cai Guo, the vagabonds who have entered the fight of the Hong family, Liu Feng, and his companions, to enter the palace to face their sentence for refusing His Majesty, the dragon of Tiandu, Tian Long's royal decree!" Tian Ju said with a majestic tone.

Then, his prideful eyes glared at Liu Feng.

"You must be the brave fool who went against His Majesty's decree. I wonder how His Majesty will sentence you. I hope he will give you a slow and painful death just for your insolence here." Tian Ju coldly said.

Liu Feng chuckled. He then glanced at Cai Guo, who was already up on his feet.

"You musn't kneel in front of a dog, family head. Although a kneel for a king is fit, kneeling when a dog is holding a decree is just not right. Well then, it looks like we have a little work to do. Shal we get to it then?" Liu Feng playfully looked at Tian Ju on purpose.

It was clear who he was calling a dog.

"Yes. It is not right to keep His Majesty waiting." Cai Guo nodded.

The Frozen Prison, Sky Heavens Sect

"It is truly saddening to hear, young boy. It looks like I am the person who has to deliver this news to you." an old voice reverberated in a cold cell in the edge of the Frozen Prison.

Although a little different than all of the other cells, because he was not actually frozen in the ice, it was without a doubt, torturous.

A young man within the cell could barely open his eyes, his eyebrows heavied by the snow.

"What is it, second elder?" the young man could barely speak.

"Your family is dead boy. All of it. By that bastard of a kid, Liu Feng. I am sorry to say this, but the Hong family is no more. You are the last remaining blood of the Hong family." the old man in front of him said.

The eyes of the young man shook for a second.

This was indeed, terrifying news. He was waiting here all this time, expecting that one day, his family would find a way to break him out of here.

And yet, he found out that his family was no more? The family that gave him everything, including the entitled life that he was used to?

He could not believe it.

"Zezeze. Looks like we both share the same grief and the same anger, boy." the old man smiled even with this heartbreaking news laid bare in front of the poor boy.

"What are you talking about? Isn't it the goddamn Sky Heavens sect that did it? Why else would you come here to gloat?" Hong Jimin scoffed.

"Why would I do such a heartless thing? No. It was the Cai family, and the goddamn bastard, Liu Feng." the second elder grit his teeth.

He then snapped his fingers, and all of a sudden, the ice started breaking, letting Hong Jimin's restraints go free.

"What are you going to do? Kill me now? The Cai family must have made sure that no one from my bloodline has survived." Hong Jimin sighed.

"What? Kill you? Why would I do that? I know of your talent, Hong Jimin. I know that you were wasting it. But now, you and I, we share the same goal. We want to take revenge. Go now. Your feathers are free. But remember, in two months, you need to enter the Ancient realm somehow, or you will never be able to take revenge on Liu Feng again."

Hong Jimin was shocked. He did not think that the second elder who was in front of him had such hatred toward Liu Feng.

And Hong Jimin did hate Liu Feng to the extent.

Why wouldn't he? First, Liu Feng intervened in his conquest to take Cai Lien. Then, since he arrived in the city, his family seemed to start losing.

And then, he was also in charge of destroying the Hong family? The only thing that he wanted to do was kill Liu Feng now.

"Fine. I will do what you want. How do I get out of here?" he asked.

"The world forgets that I am the only one in the entire kingdom who is this proficient in the elusive Dao of space." the second elder chuckled vilely as he snapped his fingers and created a silver portal in front of Hong Jimin.

Hong Jimin went through the portal. He had no other fate left waiting for him.

The moment he went through the portal, it closed up.

"Now, things are getting interesting." the second elder smiled as he took out a corpse from his spatial ring and threw it in the cell.

"Finally, I have a chance to get back at the bastard."
