Chapter 382 Long Xian's Whereabouts
Ding Wen could feel his heart tighten just thinking about it. Right now, the fact that he was here was something that Long Xian didn't know.
Everyone in the family was under the impression that their family head had entered closed doors. No one knew that he ran here to the palace.
Ding Wen stood up and approached Liu Feng.
"Stop where you are." Tian Hun was on the other side of Liu Feng, as the captain of the imperial guards. He looked upon Ding Wen with cold eyes.
Even though their defense was perfect, it would have been easier if the Ding family had come immediately. So Tian Hun had everything against the Ding family.
Ding Wen took a deep breath and started bending down.
Amidst the gaping mouths of everyone, someone at the peak of the cultivation world bent his knee and kneeled in front of the king.
"Your Majesty! The Ding Family is undergoing a tribulation that we have never faced in our life. The entire family has been taken hostage within the manor! We are not able to resist. I was barely able to come out. Please, save us." Ding Wen said, his voice clearly heard within the entire palace.
Someone who had spent their whole life cultivating would know that a peak stage Soul Evolution cultivator like Ding Wen would rather die than lose his dignity. And yet, he was kneeling?
"What is this tribulation that you are facing that stopped the Ding family from coming out for months?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows. He was skeptical of the display in front of him, but the man kneeled. While everyone was standing, he kneeled.
"One man, Your Majesty. One Man. Long Xian."
Immediately, the temperature of the room dropped by a few degrees. And the reason wasn't just Liu Feng.
Everyone was split. Those closer to Liu Feng looked at him, who was exhuming killing intent that he never gave out before. Just hearing the name, he gripped his fists harder and his eyes glinted with anger and rage.
But the other half looked at another direction that gave even more killing intent and an even more terrifying aura.
It was Liu Ling Tian. Disregarding everything, Liu Ling Tian stepped up to the center of the court and walked up to Ding Wen.
"Do you understand what you are saying, mortal? Long Xian is in your family's grounds?" Liu Ling Tian asked Ding Wen.
He completely disregarded Liu Feng, who was supposed to be the master of the court. But Liu Feng didn't care. First, Liu Ling Tian was his father! And second, both of them shared the same hatred toward Long Xian.
"He is in your family still?" Liu Feng also asked.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Ding Wen nodded, and looked back at Liu Ling Tian. He knew that this would be expected. For so long, Long Xian bragged about his conquests and how he forced Liu Ling Tian's son to create a cure for him.
But to think that that very son would become the king, and would control the Terracotta Army.
"Then nothing else needs to be said. Court is adjourned. I will take care of this piece of sh*t that humiliated me two years ago." Liu Feng coldly said.
"Your Majesty! This is your coronation! We need to complete a lot of things!" Tian Gan hastily said, but Liu Feng's ears had no place for Tian Gan's meaningless customs and traditions.
"Create an inescapable net around the Ding Family's borders. Now!" Liu Feng barked as he clutched the throne.
"As you wish, Your Majesty." someone from behind came out of the shadows and bent down.
The moment he appeared, everyone in the throne room suddenly took a step back. They were one step away from taking out their weapons.
Seeing someone appear out of nowhere, and have a Soul Evolution Stage cultivation at that, was disconcerting, and many reacted adversely to that.
"Take everyone with you. I will not tolerate someone like Long Xian. Today, he will have to die." Liu Feng coldly said.
Rumble!
This time, it was not the throne room that rumbled. Liu Feng knew better than to put his soldiers below the ground once again. Instead, he decided to put them all in another room.
And even then, he didn't take all of them. He didn't want to waste his Qi controlling useless soldiers. Only those in the Soul evolution stage were taken out of the ground, and they were the ones responsible for creating the net around the Ding Family.
But there were dozens of them, and Liu Feng understood that the information he got from Cai Guo was wrong. The number of Soul Evolution Stage experts within the Terracotta Army were numbered much higher than twenty. There were hundreds of them.
But it wasn't Cai Guo's fault that this happened in the first place. It was because no king before could handle all of those experts.
The backlash of the curse was too much for many king to handle, so the limit before was twenty Soul Evolution Stage cultivators.
Swish!
There was a ceiling that blocked everyone's view of the sky, but they didn't need to look with their eyes to know that dozens of powerful existences were leaving the palace for the Ding family.
"I wasn't joking. Court is adjourned. Today, I am going hunting." Liu Feng coldly said. With one snap of his fingers, his robes changed. He was now wearing the robes that he usually wore for fighting.
In his hands, his trusted spear appeared as he took one step forward.
"Are you coming, father?" He looked at Liu Ling Tian.
Liu Ling Tian's reaction to Liu Feng calling him father was minimal. His eyes were consumed with the rage that he held for Long Xian. This was no rivalry that they had. This was pure hatred.
"I will tear his head off this time."
Ping!

"You didn't need to give me this for me to do it." Liu Feng thought inside.
