Section 78

Where there is one, there are two. Not long after, seven or eight out of ten visitors had left.

For a time, the entire City Lord's Mansion was in chaos. It was like fireworks exploding in the sky, with people fleeing in all directions.

At this moment, Xia Feng frowned tightly, truly not having the mood to care about these ants.

The message conveyed by that Disciple just now also gave him a considerable shock.

He never expected that merely by revealing his Half-Emperor strength, the current Emperor Child, Xia Naiwu, would actually dispatch a true Martial Emperor to kill him.

What kind of existence is a Martial Emperor?

They are the highest combat power in the entire Empire, terrifying Martial Warriors who can defend a territory with the strength of a single person!

Not to mention the twenty-four Martial Emperors who can be absorbed by the Lingxiao Pavilion of the Empire; their strength is even more terrifying, to the point where one person can even destroy a Top-Grade Saint Realm!

The Half-Emperor on the surface of a Top-Grade Saint Realm is the Holy Master himself, but what about those hidden?

Innumerable years of foundation, and those old Holy Masters who have retired, who dares to say they are all dead?

Even though Xia Feng has reached the Half-Emperor Realm, he wouldn't dare to boast about being able to deal with a Top-Grade Saint Realm, but a true Martial Emperor can!

The gap between him and a Martial Emperor at this moment is like a river compared to the ocean, completely not on the same level.

Martial Emperor, Martial Emperor, achieving the Emperor Body, comprehending the Great Dao rules, every move carrying the power to destroy the world, and even capable of moving mountains and oceans by himself!

Cultivating to this level, their lifespan reaches a terrifying three hundred thousand years. It can be said that every Martial Emperor is a living fossil of the Great Xia Empire, witnessing the rise and fall of countless days and nights, and the change of countless generations!

"Impossible, he actually dared to privately send someone from Lingxiao Pavilion..."

"General Liao Changfei, guarding the southeast direction of the Empire's East Sea, a Yellow Tier Ninth Level Martial Emperor leading a million naval troops and a thousand warships..."

Xia Naiwen's expression also became panicked. That feeling of powerlessness from his childhood arose in his heart again, the pain of being forced towards Xingyu Pavilion, the feeling of losing control over everything and having to accept fate.

"Is Xia Naiwu crazy? The ancestor had a commandment, clearly stating that the Xia Family lineage that has produced an Emperor Body must not kill each other under any circumstances, yet he still sent General Liao Changfei!"

Xia Naiwen punched the nearby flower stand fiercely, causing vibrations and shattering it inch by inch.

Chapter 94: Crisis Approaches, How to Break the Stalemate?

"Old Dad..."

It was the first time Xia Feng had seen his Father so emotional, but facing the approaching enemy, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"Let's take it as it comes. Since they have already charged over, let's think about a strategy to defend against the enemy."

"Son, that is a Yellow Tier Ninth Level Martial Emperor. I know your current combat power can match a Half-Emperor, but a Half-Emperor and a true Martial Emperor are different."

Xia Naiwen covered his forehead, recalling a long time ago when he was still in the Battle Heaven Dynasty, watching with his own eyes how those Twelve Flying Generals acted, how they destroyed their Dynasty, how they shattered heaven and earth.

"We still have time, don't we, Old Dad?" Xia Feng raised his head, his eyes gradually becoming resolute.

"When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, cover it with earth. No matter what, they have already arrived. Fear is useless."

"You and Grandpa were bullied by these people in the Dynasty before. Looking at it from another perspective, perhaps this is a good opportunity for us to get revenge?" Xia Feng showed a relaxed smile.

"Although I don't know how fast a Martial Emperor is, there should still be tens of thousands of years of cultivation time, right?"

"During this time, as long as I break through to Martial Emperor, perhaps everything will still have a turning point."

"You have to believe in me, and you also have to believe in yourself, Old Dad."

Xia Feng's words were like a warm current flowing through Xia Naiwen's chest.

He slowly turned his head, looked at his son's smiling face, and a strange feeling involuntarily arose in his heart.

"You little rascal..."

He reached out and rubbed Xia Feng's head.

"Hearing what you said, how could your Old Dad be someone who easily chickens out?" Xia Naiwen also smiled.

"Actually, you're right. Since we've already been targeted by a Martial Emperor, there's definitely no way to run. We might as well go all out and play with him!"

Xia Naiwen raised his head and looked in the direction of the Imperial Capital, his eyes gradually becoming sharp.

His Father was the previous Xia Emperor of the Empire, with a strong personality, always moving forward bravely.

His son, coming from behind, is neither arrogant nor impatient, and never fears difficulties.

Then, is he, Xia Naiwen, inferior?

Before, they were persecuted by Summer Skyfate and had no strength to turn things around. They could only endure, step by step descending, becoming a part of this small city.

But now?

They have sent people to kill them again. What else can they do? Kneel and beg for mercy?

Nonsense!

He was once also from the proud Emperor Child lineage of the Xia Dynasty, with the same blood flowing in his veins as Summer Skyfate, blood that would rush forward bravely no matter what happened!

The father and son quickly reached a consensus. In the past, they had overcome every danger together, and this time was no exception!

...

The news of the Martial Emperor coming to kill Xia Feng quickly spread from the Imperial Capital. After the major Holy Lands in the Northwest Corner received the news, they all declared to the outside world that they had no relationship with Xia Feng's family.

They were unclear about the background of the Xia Family in Xingyu City, and even dispatched envoys with heavy treasures to the Imperial Capital to personally express their apologies to the Emperor Child lineage.

Although the Emperor Child didn't care for their meager offerings, the attitude was what mattered. As the saying goes, you don't hit a smiling face. No one dared to gamble at this time on whether General Liao Changfei would conduct a major cleanup of the Northwest Corner after finishing his task.

While everyone was living in fear, Xia Feng did not relax any time he could Cultivate.

Xia Feng's cultivation had reached thirty thousand years, but the condensation level of his Emperor Body was only twenty percent. This progress undoubtedly made him extremely anxious.

He was different from what the world thought. Others believed he had an Heavenly Emperor Body and had no obstacles on the Emperor path, but Xia Feng's actual Physique was just a Purple Lightning Body, and his talent was merely Superb!

The main reason he could progress so quickly was by using the Dream Pearl to compress time, which created the illusion of an Heavenly Emperor Body.

Condensing four hundred and ninety Great Dao rules, Xia Feng's idea was very simple: since his cultivation speed was ten thousand times that of others, then of course, before entering the Emperor path, he had to use all possible methods to increase his strength!

The Ten Dao elemental rules correspond to the Ten Holy Lands. To put it bluntly, Xia Feng also had selfish motives.

On the day the Holy Masters of the Ten Top-Grade Saint Realms came to Xingyu City to demand an explanation, a seed had already been planted in his heart.

That feeling of being looked down upon, being underestimated, watching his beloved women being taken away one by one.

How could he not be angry?

But he couldn't do anything, he really couldn't. The Holy Masters of the Ten Top-Grade Saint Realms were all Half-Emperor level strength. He was only a Martial Emperor at that time, so what could he do?

Therefore, the heaven and earth elements Xia Feng comprehended were the Daos corresponding to the Ten Holy Lands. He wanted to tell those Holy Masters, tell those who thought he was not worthy of marrying those girls, that it wasn't that he, Xia Feng, wasn't worthy, but that these Top-Grade Saint Realms were blind and didn't recognize a bright pearl!

However, breaking through to Martial Emperor is not as simple as Martial Saint.

Time is indeed very important, but condensing the Emperor Body and Great Dao rules mainly depends on talent.

Therefore, Xia Feng hasn't even entered the Half-Emperor Realm yet.

The fifth day quickly passed.

In the dream world, Xia Feng had cultivated for the equivalent of fifty thousand years.

At this moment, his eyes were red, and the anxiety in his heart was completely uncontrollable. Several times during his cultivation, he almost suffered Qi Deviation, leading to serious injuries.

The more this happened, the more time he had to spend recovering from injuries, resulting in wasted cultivation time.

Every time he healed, he deliberately avoided Xia Naiwen and Huang Xiaoqian, not wanting them to worry.

But he could clearly feel that they were equally anxious.

In fifty thousand years, both of them had also broken through to Earth Rank Martial Saint.

But this level of strength is simply not worth mentioning to a Martial Emperor!

No one knew when General Liao Changfei would arrive at Xingyu City, but according to Xia Naiwen's understanding of a Martial Emperor, he estimated that it should not take more than fifteen days to travel from the Imperial Capital to Xingyu City.

Calculating the time, they might only have five days left.

In five days, can Xia Feng break through to Martial Emperor?

They didn't know.

They had thought about escaping, but a Martial Emperor expert can track spiritual energy, and their speed is far inferior to General Liao Changfei's.

How to break the stalemate?

"Stay calm, stay calm..." Xia Feng sat cross-legged on the ground, constantly taking deep breaths.

He kept telling himself there was still time, constantly hinting to himself that he would definitely succeed.

Eighty thousand years of time, under this extremely suppressive state of mind, Xia Feng's potential was indeed stimulated.

At this moment, his Emperor Body condensation has reached sixty-five percent.

But this is not enough, he needs more time.

General Liao Changfei, transformed into a giant meteor, traversed nearly half of the Great Xia Empire. His speed was extremely fast; many cities only felt a tremor in the heaven and earth, a loud explosion in the sky, and then everyone stared dumbfounded at the fiery red tail.

That Martial Emperor's pressure was enough to crush everything!

Most forces in North Province have already considered Xia Feng a dead man. No one believes he can survive against General Liao Changfei.
