Chapter 103 Xuanmiaozi of Changchun Sect comes to the Imperial City of Dayuan to question Emperor Ji
Oh!
Chen Fan responded with an "oh".
He squinted, appearing somewhat calm, and said:
"These treacherous members of the Changchun Sect are getting more and more arrogant! Qian'er, we'd better avoid going out of the Imperial Horse Stables lately!"
"Okay! Godfather!" Little Stool nodded repeatedly.
"This is terrifying! We've also heard that the rebellious prince is called the Prince of Jing'an... This man has swept through the land like a whirlwind, coming to the aid of the emperor under the pretext of 'purging the court of corrupt officials'!"
Prince Jing'an?
Cleanse the court of corrupt officials!
Chen Fan shook his head inwardly, feeling that the world of Dayuan was becoming increasingly chaotic.
Fortunately, he was just a eunuch who raised horses, so not many people cared about him.
After chatting with Xiaodengzi for a few minutes, Chen Fan got up and left.
After a long night, it would be a lie to say he wasn't tired.
Especially with his spiritual energy greatly depleted, he could fall asleep the moment he was given a pillow...
……
Five days passed in the blink of an eye.
News has come from the palace.
It is said that the Jing'an Prince's army broke through all the passes and killed eighteen vassal kings who followed Emperor Jianwen!
With unstoppable momentum, he is now heading straight for the capital!
For a time, the people of the Great Abyss Dynasty were filled with fear and unease, seeing enemies everywhere!
If it weren't for the Imperial Guards watching over them, many people would have chosen to flee the city!
Chen Fan was able to learn of this news.
He overheard it by accident when he went to steal fish from the ornamental pond in the Imperial Garden.
Startled, he didn't even have time to glance at Emperor Jianwen before rushing back to the Imperial Stables.
A world within a bowl, beside a pool.
Eunuch Wei glanced at the motionless fishing rod and felt uneasy.
But after glancing at the composed old eunuch, he swallowed back the question he wanted to ask.
"Master... there are no fish here..." But Jidaozi was carefree, focusing solely on fishing.
With little work to do these past few days, the group enjoyed a rare moment of leisurely fishing.
"Like the legendary fisherman Taigong, those who are willing will take the bait," Chen Fan said with a smile.
"If there's no hook, how can the fish take the bait!"
"That's true..." Jidouzi looked at the fishing rod without a hook, then nodded.
Seeing this, Eunuch Wei could no longer contain himself.
He pushed aside the fishing rod, stood up, and said:
"Father-in-law, what's going on outside...?"
"The Prince of Jing'an's army is at the city gates," Chen Fan said nonchalantly.
"With that formation master in the capital, the city is temporarily impregnable!"
"Why only temporarily? Is it because... the Changchun Sect hasn't made a move yet?" Eunuch Wei's voice was hoarse!
Chen Fan nodded.
I thought to myself, the Changchun Sect is really too strong!
From the time Emperor Jianwen secretly plotted his rebellion until the time he openly broke off relations, Emperor Changchun almost never appeared in public.
But after the Da Yuan Dynasty publicly declared its independence, Prince Jing'an appeared!
This prince, who was of the same generation as the Hongwu Emperor, rose to prominence and broke through all obstacles, killing eighteen princes in succession!
Now, leading a million-strong army, we've marched to the gates of the Great Abyss Dynasty!
If anyone were to say that the Changchun Sect wasn't supporting this, Chen Fan would never believe it, even if he were beaten to death!
Especially since no one from the Changchun Sect has shown up yet!
Emperor Jianwen's final trump card was never revealed.
Both sides seem to be still considering and looking for an opportunity!
"I already said, what makes a secular dynasty think it can challenge the Changchun Sect, one of the eight great sects?" Ji Daozi interjected.
"Now you see, the Changchun Sect only needs to make a slight move to turn the tide and change the outcome! This Great Abyss is probably doomed!"
This is not an exaggeration, Ji Daozi.
At least that's how Chen Fan sees it!
He smiled thoughtfully, put down his fishing rod, and said:
"Who cares? I'm just a eunuch who tends horses. If these people break in, I'll just hide... and come out again when the world is at peace..."
"Master is wise!" Jidaozi flattered.
"Father-in-law, Dayuan is also your homeland!" Eunuch Wei said indignantly.
Are you just going to stand by and do nothing?!
"Is this why you're so restless?" Chen Fan countered.
"Wei Zhong, you are still too young. What is family? What is country? This isn't me standing idly by; this is me knowing when to back down!"
The words had barely left his mouth!
Chen Fan vanished in a flash.
Standing there dumbfounded, Eunuch Wei swallowed hard, his mind constantly replaying the old eunuch's words.
Unable to understand, he shook his head inwardly and turned to leave.
However, Ji Daozi, upon hearing this, seemed to ponder something and said:
"This is... the realm of cause and effect... How can a Qi Refining Realm cultivator possess such a realm... This is abnormal..."
……
late at night.
Chen Fan, who was not staying at the Imperial Horse Stable for cultivation, unusually went out for a stroll.
With his ability to conceal his presence, he walked like a ghost, unnoticed by anyone.
As Chen Fan passed by palaces along the way, he often saw palace maids and concubines packing their things, preparing to escape from the palace.
Even some of the Embroidered Uniform Guards and Imperial Guards were filled with anxiety, looking as if they were about to desert in the face of battle.
However, some eunuchs acted as if nothing had happened, continuing to perform their duties as usual.
Chen Fan, unfazed by such occurrences, simply smiled.
It is believed that eunuchs have always been a product of imperial power.
If the imperial power is gone, then the eunuchs will have no reason to exist!
At this time, everyone in the palace would run away, but the eunuchs would not.
This is also why Chen Fan understands Eunuch Wei.
He doesn't even quite understand the concepts of family and country!
It's impossible to expect him to die fighting for the Great Yuan Dynasty!
Thinking about all this, Chen Fan suddenly felt enlightened!
Just as he was about to go to the library to read for a while, it suddenly got light!
That's right!
It's dawn!
A terrifying figure, dressed in white, tall and slender with a refined face, and riding a flying sword, appeared silently in the sky directly above the entire Great Abyss Dynasty!
A blinding white light emanated from him!
The light made the entire palace as bright as day!
"Xuanmiaozi of the Changchun Sect has come to the capital of Dayuan to demand an explanation from Emperor Jianwen!"
Suddenly, a calm yet indifferent voice rang out!
Like a resounding bell, its sound echoed throughout the entire imperial city!
Suddenly, golden light shone everywhere in the palace, which was the very formation that had previously severely injured Ji Daozi!
Within that formation, eighteen cultivators, each radiating Qi Refining Realm cultivation, appeared simultaneously.
Their combined efforts to support the formation made the golden light even more dazzling!
"This is... flying on a sword! A legendary Foundation Establishment Realm expert!"
"Flying on a sword...able to take an enemy's head from a thousand miles away...is this what a Foundation Establishment Realm expert is like!"
"Immortal...flying immortal, run! The Great Abyss is finished!"
"What a terrifying aura... This is far more powerful than a Qi Refining Realm cultivator..."
……
In the Imperial Garden.
Chen Fan's pupils contracted slightly as he stared at the terrifying figure overlooking the entire palace!
The difference in strength made him feel like a firefly peeking at the bright moon!
"Foundation Establishment Realm..."
Muttering to himself, Chen Fan gritted his teeth, instinctively wanting to turn back to the Imperial Horse Stables.
Just then, a familiar, majestic, and cold voice rang out from the direction of the Purple Extreme Palace!
"The Changchun Sect has enslaved the people of Dayuan for a century. I merely wish to restore their freedom. What crime have I committed?"
The speaker was none other than the Jianwen Emperor!
Dressed in a dragon robe, he exuded an unmistakable imperial aura!
