126: Chapter 126 Blood Qi Tracking Technique, Li Yuan's Identity Exposed
Over the half-month period of forging weapons, the Blood Qi Tracking Method had been used multiple times.
It seemed more than one person had employed this method.
Either a single faction had arranged for several individuals to verify it.
Or many factions had begun to question his identity.
A Ninth-Grade Supreme appearing out of thin air, and one comparable to a top-tier Supreme like Yan Louchuan.
Naturally, there were many who wanted to know Li Yuan's true identity.
After this use of the Blood Qi Tracking Method, Li Yuan believed his identity had likely been exposed.
His parents had been framed as imperial criminals, leading to the execution of his entire family.
The blood qi of relatives of imperial criminals would be prioritized for tracking.
Li Yuan lacked this layer of identity, which would have required them to expend more effort.
Now, it was somewhat easier.
With the Blood Qi Tracking Method used for so many days, the leaders of the corresponding factions should know his identity.
...
The capital, Guiyuan Princes Mansion.
The scouts sent out had been reporting back frequently in recent days.
"Your Highness, it has been confirmed. That person is the sole son of the former fourth-grade local official, Li Guangyi."
"During the confiscation of his family's property, he was indeed not captured."
Hearing this, Prince Guiyuan hesitated for a moment before nodding.
He felt not so much panic, but more puzzlement.
The strongest guard by Li Guangyi's side was only seventh-grade.
By what means did Li Yuan manage to acquire strength comparable to the ninth grade?
If Li Guangyi had a Ninth-Grade Supreme by his side, how could he have died back then?
Even if Prince Guiyuan wanted to take action against him, for the sake of a Ninth-Grade Supreme's Face, negotiation would come first.
Li Guangyi had insisted on strictly investigating the imperial examinations, affecting Prince Guiyuan's interests.
It was precisely because he saw Li Guangyi lacked a deep Foundation that he dared to use swift and severe measures.
How exactly did this Li Yuan obtain such power?
"You may withdraw for now. This prince will find a way to resolve this matter."
After giving his orders, Prince Guiyuan stood up and walked deeper into the princes mansion.
The princes mansion was located in the northern part of the capital, near the city wall.
To the north of the city lay a range of treacherous mountains, a natural barrier.
Prince Guiyuan directly exited through the back gate of the princes mansion and entered the mountains.
Soon, he walked into a cave.
Though a cave, the interior was lavishly decorated, with all manner of items properly arranged.
After entering the cave, Prince Guiyuan knocked on a section of stone wall.
After a good while, another stone door opened within the cave.
When the stone door opened, a scantily clad young woman walked out.
The woman's Face was flushed, and her legs seemed somewhat unsteady.
Upon seeing Prince Guiyuan, she still managed to bow before quickly leaving.
Prince Guiyuan nodded and then entered through the stone door.
"What matter is so urgent that you lack all composure?
I told you, only matters of extreme importance warrant coming directly here."
Only after scolding him first did the Amber Sovereign allow Prince Guiyuan to sit.
Throughout the entire process, Prince Guiyuan did not utter a single word of rebuttal, obediently listening to the reprimand.
Prince Guiyuan might have had various thoughts in his heart, but in front of the Amber Sovereign, he had to endure them all.
The Amber Sovereign was the pinnacle of Da Shun's martial Dao.
His current cultivation was already seeking a deeper path.
Whether there was a road beyond Ninth Grade Great Perfection.
Whether Ninth Grade Great Perfection was truly not the endpoint of the martial Dao.
Of course, these were merely outsiders' conjectures about the Amber Sovereign.
How could others know the true nature of his cultivation path?
Just like now, he was often indulging with women.
Yet to Prince Guiyuan and others, he claimed to be seeking the path of cultivation.
The specifics, who knew?
"Speak, what exactly is the urgent matter?"
Hearing the Amber Sovereign's instruction, Prince Guiyuan began to explain.
Regarding Li Yuan, the Amber Sovereign had already heard related news before.
In the entire Da Shun, there were only slightly over thirty Ninth-Grade Supremes.
Now that an additional one had appeared, he naturally needed to understand.
He consumed a vast amount of resources annually. The emergence of a new Ninth-Grade Supreme could very well compete with him for interests.
"Esteemed One, this Li Yuan is the son of Li Guangyi, who opposed us before.
During the last confiscation, he managed to escape.
Who would have thought that in less than two years, rumors would spread of him possessing the strength of a Ninth-Grade Supreme..."
Prince Guiyuan did not elaborate further.
He only needed to mention the enmity between Li Yuan and the Guiyuan Princes Mansion. The Amber Sovereign understood the rest.
The grudge of family extermination was not something that could be resolved with a few words.
Now that Li Yuan possessed such strength, the matter of revenge would inevitably be on the agenda sooner or later!
Hearing this, the Amber Sovereign also fell into brief contemplation.
"I heard Yan Louchuan has already clashed with this Li Yuan, and moreover, Yan Louchuan compromised.
He even threw out a junior of the Yan Family to be used for a Drug Trial..."
The Amber Sovereign paused here, thinking for a moment.
Seeing this, Prince Guiyuan, standing to the side, hesitantly pressed, "Esteemed One, is there something amiss?"
"This Sovereign previously sent a letter to Yan Louchuan, but he was evasive regarding this Li Yuan.
In all likelihood, there is some Ninth-Grade Supreme standing behind this Li Yuan.
How could a young man like him step into the Ninth-Grade realm so quickly."
After speaking, the Amber Sovereign seemed to think of something else.
But as he pondered, he couldn't help but wave his hand dismissively.
"Forget it. This Sovereign will handle this youngster personally.
With a grudge of family extermination like this, no amount of talking will likely ease it."
"Esteemed One, if the Ninth-Grade Supreme behind Li Yuan becomes enraged, how shall we resolve it?
After all, even Yan Louchuan compromised..."
Prince Guiyuan voiced the doubt in his heart.
Hearing this, the Amber Sovereign looked at him somewhat speechlessly.
"However he wishes to resolve it, that's how it shall be resolved.
Could it be that this Sovereign needs to act according to his whims?
There are over thirty Ninth-Grade Supremes in the Shun Kingdom.
If this Sovereign had to consider every single one of them, nothing would ever get done."
After saying this, the Amber Sovereign stood up and draped his Supreme robe over himself.
From the looks of it, he seemed prepared to go and deal with Li Yuan right now.
Before leaving the Immortal Cave, the Amber Sovereign turned to look at Prince Guiyuan.
"This Sovereign has grown tired of that batch of women you arranged last time.
Change them all. Don't send those with no meat on their bones."
After tossing out these words, the Amber Sovereign then leaped away from the Immortal Cave, heading in the direction of the Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy.
Judging by his tone, this Amber Sovereign was truly obsessed with women.
Even before going out to attend to serious business, he was still thinking of having Prince Guiyuan arrange women for him.
Only after the Amber Sovereign left did Prince Guiyuan finally let out a sigh of relief.
In front of this number one Supreme, he had lost all trace of his arrogant demeanor.
The Prince Guiyuan who was so domineering and decisive in front of outsiders was as timid as a chick here.
Though he felt very uncomfortable in his heart, Prince Guiyuan could still accept the Amber Sovereign's attitude.
After all, he only needed to endure this one person. Most of the time, his life was lived quite lavishly.
