Section 89
As soon as these words came out, the officials and nobles present knew the identity of the newcomer.
Recently, news about him has been spreading like wildfire, and everyone in the Imperial Capital knows that General Liao Changfei is dead, killed by this Former Imperial Son.
They just didn't expect that only a few days after the news of the Former Imperial Son arrived, he himself would also follow.
The Xia Family ancestral instructions once stipulated that the current Xia Emperor must be able to command respect, whether in terms of strength, connections, or prestige; only by being able to command respect can they truly sit firmly on the throne.
Only those with the Xia Family Bloodline possessing an Heavenly Emperor Body can become the Crown Prince of the Great Xia Empire.
An Heavenly Emperor Body is inherently gifted, and there is basically no competition.
But in the generation of Summer Bright, the situation was very special.
Although Summer Bright was the Emperor Child, his personality was quite detached; he didn't want to be the Xia Emperor and didn't want to spend his days thinking about court affairs.
However, Summer Bright was single-mindedly determined to become the Xia Emperor. After the Former Xia Emperor went into seclusion, he used despicable means to trick Summer Bright into going to Qingxin Hall. He also arranged for five mysterious Heaven Rank Martial Emperors to forcibly confine him and cast a forbidden technique to strip Summer Bright of his Emperor Body, causing Summer Bright's Realm to instantly plummet and his potential to be damaged.
What the Former Xia Emperor wanted was someone who could grow into a Martial Emperor and protect the Great Xia Empire. Since Summer Bright was crippled, he couldn't possibly cripple Summer Bright as well. In the end, he exiled Summer Bright to the Battle Heaven Dynasty.
And at this very moment, Summer Bright had returned to the Imperial Capital with Xia Feng and the Divine Artifact Void Cauldron, vowing to reclaim everything that belonged to him.
"My Realm is crippled? If I can kill General Liao Changfei, can I not kill you?"
Summer Bright immediately stood up, his Aura dozens of times stronger than Liu Yaoming's, and fiercely pressed him to the ground.
"Earth Rank First Level Martial Emperor!"
Liu Yaoming was stunned for a moment, then he turned around, took to the air, and furiously fled towards the direction of Lingxiao Pavilion.
He ran away in a flash, not wasting a single second.
"Grandpa, are we just letting him go like this?"
Xia Feng and Summer Bright walked out of the noodle shop under the awestruck gazes of the crowd.
He raised his hand and looked at Liu Yaoming in the sky, asking with some confusion.
"Yes, let him go. Since we are going to compete for the throne again, we will have to face these things sooner or later."
Summer Bright looked towards Lingxiao Pavilion and shook his head.
Liu Yaoming arrived at the Emperor Child Hall like a madman and immediately reported the matter of Summer Bright's arrival to the Emperor Child Xia Naiwu.
When Xia Naiwu heard this news, he was also struck by lightning. He guessed that since Summer Bright dared to reveal himself, he must have some hidden plan.
But he didn't expect that they would actually come to the Imperial Capital, and in such a short time.
When he learned of Summer Bright's Earth Rank Martial Emperor Realm, Xia Naiwu gritted his teeth and immediately issued an order with the Emperor Child's command token, instructing all Lingxiao Pavilion Twenty-Four Martial Emperors to rush to the noodle shop.
For a time, the entire Imperial Capital was in a commotion. After the news spread, over twenty terrifying and monstrous Auras erupted from various locations in the Imperial Capital. Among them were Huang Realm, Xuan Realm, and Earth Rank experts, all rushing towards one location.
This action also caused many people to feel uneasy and fearful.
Ordinary people didn't know what had happened that required the mobilization of all Lingxiao Pavilion Twenty-Four Martial Emperors at once.
And some people of status, after learning the reason, immediately felt their breathing quicken.
The Former Imperial Son has returned to the Imperial Capital again. Unexpectedly, as soon as he arrived, he caused such a big stir. All Lingxiao Pavilion Twenty-Four Martial Emperors rushed over. What exactly does he want to do?
Could it be that he wants to change the sky of this Imperial Capital again?
Not only them, but even the old monsters in the Imperial Dragon Hall, after reading the intelligence about Summer Bright over the years and hearing that he had arrived in the Imperial Capital at this moment, all chose to remain silent and observe the development of the situation.
Chapter 109: Eleven Martial Emperors of the Martial Emperor Pavilion Surround and Attack
The Lingxiao Pavilion Twenty-Four Martial Emperors, to be precise, twenty-three Martial Emperors, all followed Xia Naiwu and arrived at this commercial street.
They all floated in the air, looking down at Summer Bright from above, and Xia Naiwu's eyes were like sharp blades.
The residents below the Imperial Capital saw the Lingxiao Pavilion Twenty-Four Martial Emperors gathered together, and they all knelt on the ground, bowing in reverence to these supreme beings who guarded the Great Xia Empire.
"My subordinate reported someone causing trouble in the Imperial Capital. I didn't expect it to be my uncle and my nephew. It seems I have failed to welcome you properly."
"I didn't expect Uncle that you would break through to the Earth Rank Martial Emperor again with a Mortal body, and my nephew here, only in his twenties, is also a Half-Emperor at such a young age. Your futures are truly boundless."
Although Xia Naiwu's eyes were cold, his words were very polite.
But Summer Bright didn't appreciate it, and neither did Xia Feng.
The grandfather and grandson, one with a cold smile and the other with an expressionless face, stared directly at Xia Naiwu.
Xia Naiwu had sent people to assassinate him repeatedly. If it weren't for Xia Feng having the Dream Pearl to help him Cultivate, he would have died long ago.
"Hmm, it's alright."
Summer Bright said indifferently.
"I also feel that my grandson and I have boundless futures. The current Xia Emperor of the Great Xia Empire is really too useless and detrimental to the development of the Empire. Therefore, according to the ancestral instructions, I want to come and take over this position for him."
"Is Uncle serious?"
When Xia Naiwu heard this, he was instantly filled with anger, but he still forced himself to suppress it and said with an expressionless face.
"If necessary, you, this Emperor Child, can also be replaced by my grandson."
Summer Bright's words were shocking and relentless. As soon as these two sentences came out, the expressions of all Lingxiao Pavilion Twenty-Four Martial Emperors changed.
As soon as he said this, he had completely left no room for retreat.
If he wanted to change the sky of the Great Xia Empire, he would become a Mortal enemy with Xia Naiwu's lineage!
Therefore, Xia Naiwu no longer bothered to pretend. He stopped being polite and said angrily.
"You old immortal thing, you really don't know what's good for you. You want my father's and my position? Are you worthy?!"
"So many years have passed, and it seems you've healed your wounds and forgotten the pain. When the Battle Heaven Dynasty was destroyed back then, you were nothing but a drowning dog!"
"Do you think that by cultivating back to the Earth Rank Martial Emperor today, you can turn the tide? Old thing, you're just dreaming!"
"The Lingxiao Pavilion Martial Emperors are here. My father could cripple you twenty years ago, and today I can cripple you too!"
He raised his arm and fiercely slashed down through the air.
With a whoosh, among the twenty-three Martial Emperors, eleven stood in front of Xia Naiwu. They looked coldly at Summer Bright, having already mobilized all their spiritual power.
These eleven were precisely the Martial Emperors who went with Summer Bright to destroy the Battle Heaven Dynasty.
Summer Bright looked up at them, his expression indescribably cold.
Most of these eleven Martial Emperors were Flying Generals, with only three being Dragon Generals.
And the expressions of the remaining twelve Martial Emperors of Lingxiao Pavilion were also quite complex.
They had once been under Summer Bright's leadership, guarding the four domains and fighting for the country.
Before Summer Bright's Emperor Body was stripped, they were all loyal to Summer Bright's lineage.
It was just that later, Summer Bright was conferred the title of Battle Heaven Emperor and left the Imperial Capital, and they could only sigh with regret.
However, now that Summer Bright had returned, the remaining twelve Martial Emperors immediately made their choice.
That was, to wait and see how things developed.
They would not help the current Emperor Child deal with Summer Bright, nor would they help Summer Bright. For them, this was the best approach.
"Eleven Martial Emperors, six Huang Realm Ninth Level, three Xuan Realm Fifth Level, one Earth Rank First Level, one Earth Rank Third Level..."
Summer Bright slightly narrowed his eyes, scanning everyone.
"So many years have passed, and your Realms are still stagnant."
He sneered.
"Ninth Dragon General, Meng Jiang."
Then, Summer Bright turned his head to look at the Earth Rank Third Level Martial Emperor.
"At the Battle Heaven Dynasty back then, you contributed quite a bit. My back still hurts now."
Saying that, Summer Bright rubbed his back.
Meng Jiang's face immediately turned gloomy. He knew that Summer Bright was referring to the time he fiercely ambushed Summer Bright when they were surrounding and killing him, which led to his defeat.
"Is saying so much useless nonsense helpful? Since you are a dead person, you shouldn't have come back to life."
Meng Jiang said coldly. He twirled the dagger in his hand, then pointed it at Summer Bright.
"You haven't entered the imperial palace yet, so the competition doesn't count. Rushing up so foolishly is just replaying what happened before."
"So confident?" Summer Bright slowly floated up. He looked down at these eleven people with disdain.
"Just you useless people who haven't made any progress in fifty years, come and see if you can take me down again!"
Summer Bright roared upwards, shattering the sky, and his voice could even be heard throughout the entire Imperial Capital.
"Fifty years ago, Emperor Child Summer Bright schemed to harm me and seized my Emperor Body. Today, I, Summer Bright, return to the Imperial Capital, vowing to reclaim everything I have lost!"
