496: Is your family plotting a rebellion?

Seeing Zhang Ziheng appear with people from the Zhang Family, Wei Haijing's eyes lit up; the main person had finally arrived.

Zhang Ziheng spotted Ji Wuchang in the center of the square at a glance, and a chilling killing intent flashed in his eyes!

"Ji Wuchang, you dare to kill members of my Zhang Family? Today shall be the day you die!"

Killing intent rolled in Zhang Ziheng's eyes. He saw Wei Haijing nearby, and he also saw Fang Tai.

"Brother Zhang, this brat is murderous by nature and has committed heinous crimes. How about our two families join forces to slay him together?"

Wei Haijing looked at Zhang Ziheng, cupped his fists, and spoke.

"That would be excellent!"

Zhang Ziheng did not hesitate at all and directly nodded in agreement.

As their words spread, the atmosphere on the scene instantly became tense. Countless people turned their gazes toward Ji Wuchang, wanting to see his reaction.

But they were disappointed. There was no sign of tension or fear on Ji Wuchang's face; he only watched Wei Haijing and Zhang Ziheng with cold indifference.

This made many people quite surprised, wondering what reliance this youth had!

Just as the people from the Wei Family and Zhang Family were about to make their move, an old man appeared in the Void Realm, the pressure of the eighth level of the Dao Severing Realm emanating from him.

This old man was precisely Zhao Lianpeng!

"Wait, what just happened was for a reason. It was Zhang Meier of the Zhang Family who incited Zuo Yaohai of the Zuo Family to attack Ji Wuchang first!"

"I have already sent someone to report to the Ninth Princess. The Ninth Princess will arrive shortly."

"It's better to wait until the Ninth Princess arrives before discussing this matter!"

Zhao Lianpeng had to stand out. Firstly, he couldn't let the situation escalate further, or even the Ninth Princess wouldn't be able to handle it.

Secondly, he was worried that Wei Haijing and Zhang Ziheng would be slain by Ji Wuchang!

Once more lives were lost, the matter would become even more complicated.

Fortunately, after Fang Tai arrived, he hadn't attacked Ji Wuchang, otherwise Zhao Lianpeng's headache would have been even greater.

Zhao Lianpeng's sudden appearance startled everyone present. Someone recognized Zhao Lianpeng's background at a glance.

Fang Tai's expression was also solemn. He secretly felt lucky that he hadn't done anything just now, otherwise he might have been in trouble!

"No wonder this Ji Wuchang dares to be so arrogant; it turns out the Ninth Princess is backing him!"

"You can't say he's arrogant. Enshrined Zhao just said that the Young Master of the Zuo Family was incited by the Zhang Family to attack Ji Wuchang, which triggered this!"

"This Young Master Ji's strength is terrifying; he could actually insta-kill Zuo Qianchang, a person at the sixth level of the Dao Severing Realm!"

"That's natural. I just inquired, and Ji Wuchang was the first place in this Hundred Cities Selection!"

Among the crowd, discussions broke out because of Zhao Lianpeng's sudden appearance.

Wei Haijing and Zhang Ziheng both frowned slightly and exchanged a glance. Their original intention to strike was instantly suppressed!

They hadn't expected that this Enshrined official by the Ninth Princess's side would jump out at this time.

"Zhao Lianpeng, you have quite the nerve to openly shield such a vicious criminal."

"Do you really think that with the Ninth Princess's protection, I wouldn't dare to slay you?"

Just then, a cold voice rang out from a distance. The Seventh Princess, Li Muxin, appeared with a face as cold as frost.

Behind Li Muxin followed several Enshrined officials, including Zhao Xiuya, as well as a squad of armored men.

The armor on these people was identical to that of the Royal City Imperial Guard, but the cultivation of the leading general was clearly higher, reaching the sixth level of the Dao Severing Realm.

Behind him were two others at the fifth level of the Dao Severing Realm.

Even the soldiers brought along had clearly different cultivations, with several experts of the Six Gods Realm among them!

That general was precisely the Vice Commander of the Royal City Imperial Guard, Wei Zongyao, who came from the Wei Family!

Seeing the sudden appearance of the Seventh Princess Li Muxin and her entourage, Zhao Lianpeng's head throbbed. He hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "Greetings, Seventh Princess!"

The people around all cupped their fists in greeting to Li Muxin, and some showed a hint of fervor in their eyes.

If they could gain the appreciation of this Seventh Princess, they might have a chance to realize their ambitions in the future.

Moreover, it was said that this Seventh Princess liked powerful men and changed male consorts every night. Who knew if it was true or false?

At this moment, the most peaceful person on the scene was Ji Wuchang, who swept his gaze over these people with indifference.

If he killed all these people, he wondered if his Luck value could accumulate to eighty thousand?

After all, if it reached eighty thousand, he could exchange for eight fragments of the Thousand Illusions Spirit Pupils at once. Combined with the two from before, he could synthesize the Thousand Illusions Spirit Pupils.

Thinking of this, Ji Wuchang's eyes began to glow with a green light, and killing intent surged wildly within them.

However, he still restrained his killing intent. He was waiting for the other party to strike first, so that when he killed them, he would have no psychological burden.

When the time came, he would kill this Seventh Princess as well, which could be considered helping Li Xueqin solve a powerful enemy!

Around the square at this moment, no one knew what Ji Wuchang was thinking, otherwise they would surely be so shocked they'd be speechless!

Just as Li Muxin appeared, a lame old man also appeared not far away, with a broken sword casually tucked into his waist.

This person was precisely Li Xiaoyuan.

He was originally hiding behind the crowd, but seeing so many people arrive with such hostility, he couldn't help but step forward.

Although he knew Ji Yongming was protecting in the shadows, he was still uneasy.

Ji Wuchang was the Young Miss's only child and could not be allowed any mishaps. Otherwise, even if he slaughtered the entire Yingtian Prefecture, it would be of no use!

Li Muxin glanced at Zhao Lianpeng with indifferent eyes, then looked at Ji Wuchang nearby, killing intent surging in her gaze.

When Ji Wuchang killed Wei Feiluan that day, it had already caused Li Muxin to harbor killing intent toward him.

But that day was a competition, and he had the protection of her dear ninth sister. Even she couldn't do anything to Ji Wuchang.

But today was different. Ji Wuchang had killed Zhang Meier and also Zuo Yaohai. Even if she killed him, her ninth sister would have nothing to say!

"Ji Wuchang, seeing this Princess and you still don't surrender? Does your Family intend to rebel?"

Li Muxin immediately slapped a heavy accusation on Ji Wuchang. She still thought Ji Wuchang came from Aries City!

Although Li Muxin had people to gather intelligence, they were far inferior compared to Li Xueqin's Snow Network!

Hearing the Seventh Princess's words, the people around instantly gasped.

This Seventh Princess was ruthless; not only did she want to kill Ji Wuchang, but she also wanted to uproot his entire Family!

Many people looked at Li Muxin with different eyes!

Hearing this, Zhao Lianpeng's lips couldn't help but twitch slightly. He was somewhat speechless regarding this Seventh Princess.

Without even clearly investigating Ji Wuchang's background, she threw around accusations. If this spread, it would be the Heavenly Star Dynasty's royal Family losing face!

But in this kind of situation, Zhao Lianpeng had no way to warn Li Muxin and could only sigh!
