Chapter 40: Overconfident Murong Ce

Inside the royal residence of the Purple Moon Kingdom… Flaxen Moon Palace.

This was a palace specifically used by the Purple Moon Kingdom’s royalty to accommodate royal members of other kingdoms. The interior of the palace was filled with dazzling gold and jade flooring.

The Purple Moon Kingdom was a small kingdom. It might possess good things for most aspects, but was still inferior to larger kingdoms, making them look lesser grandeur.

However, there was one thing that could make the Purple Moon Kingdom raise their heads…

The crown prince of the Northern Dusk Kingdom, Yun Mojin would be a judge for their National Test!

It was something that would make the other kingdoms very jealous!

Right now, the Flaxen Moon Palace was surrounded by people.

They all wanted to make use of this opportunity to seek advice from the Northern Dusk Kingdom’s crown price. No one knew of the crown prince’s true strength, but they knew he was very powerful, extremely powerful! A single flick of his finger could turn a person into ashes.

Therefore, there were plenty of martial artists who had yet to break through who were hoping they had the chance to see Yun Mojin and obtain some pointers. The king of the Purple Moon Kingdom allowed these martial artists to enter the palace because he wanted to strengthen his kingdom.

However, all these people were held outside.

Yun Mojin wasn’t going to see any one of them!

As such, these martial artists continued waiting in front of the palace gate, thinking that faith would move the mountains to open, thinking that Yun Mojin would definitely come out to give them pointers.

Murong Ce, who had high self-esteem, had already accumulated a stomach of flames when he was returning from the Xiao Residence. Right now, as he was standing in front of the Flaxen Moon Palace, the flames were already burning on his chest.

Who does Yun Mojin think he is? He is actually ignoring all the martial artists from the Purple Moon Kingdom! Everyone has been waiting from day to midnight and he never even showed his face once. The Northern Dusk Kingdom might be the no.1 kingdom, but he still mustn’t look down on people!

When the official came out to notify Murong Ce that Yun Mojin wouldn’t see him either, he could feel all the vicious stares from the surrounding martial artists. He was the seventh prince of the Purple Moon Kingdom, but Yun Mojin didn’t think Murong Ce was worth anything!

That’s right, all these people had eyes that felt the same way too.

Murong Ce felt he was provoked and actually leaped over as he wanted to barge inside! This was the Purple Moon Kingdom and this place was within the Purple Moon Kingdom’s royal residence. If he wanted to enter, no one could stop him!

Murong Ce didn’t believe that Yun Mojin could be as terrifying as the rumors said. They were of the same age and started cultivating at the same time, how could Yun Mojin’s cultivation be that much superior to him? Murong Ce was a martial art genius with great capabilities in comprehending martial arts.

Therefore, Murong Ce was thinking to himself, It is a rumor! Definitely a rumor! Yun Mojin cannot be as godly as he is in the rumor! 

However…

Just as Murong Ce was about to barge in with anger, a black figure descended.

The figure floated straight down in front of Murong Ce.

It wasn’t Yun Mojin, it was his bodyguard, Long Yu

Just the appearance of the bodyguard gave everyone an unprecedented pressure and fear.

Long Yu looked at Murong Ce with ice-cold eyes and an indifferent expression. His attitude didn’t change because of Murong Ce’s identity.

“No matter who it is, no one is allowed to enter! Trespassers shall be killed!”

Everyone was shocked by the statement. Murong Ce’s face was flushed red and also pale white. Trespassers would be killed? Those words were targeted at him right?

Damn it!

There were plenty of martial artists’ eyes looking at him, how could he retreat in fright just because of the words from a bodyguard?

“This prince is the Purple Moon Kingdom’s Seventh Prince. I wish to see the Northern Dusk Kingdom’s Crown Prince.” Murong Ce raised his head high and said in a loud voice.

Hearing the response, Long Yu glanced at Murong Ce with cold and sharp eyes that belonged to an expert, “The Crown Prince will not see anyone.”

There was no negotiation and no change in attitude either.

This was the strength of the Northern Dusk Kingdom! This was the strength of the Northern Dusk Kingdom’s crown prince!

Murong Ce had never suffered such humiliation before. His anger was just like a flame which was ignited from the small fire earlier and was just burning towards the sky. His eyes were red as he wielded the Speed Wind Sword. With a burst of killing aura, he glared at Long Yu, “It doesn’t matter who he is, this is the Purple Moon Kingdom! If this prince wants to see him now, I will see him now!”

“Are you certain?” Long Yu didn’t feel any apprehension as he raised his brows and asked in a cold voice.

Murong Ce didn’t reply. He was rebutted by a bodyguard, he was a genius that was admired by people, how could he accept such embarrassment! He didn’t hesitate and immediately thrust with the Speed Wind Sword. 

At the next instant, no one was breathing.

All eyes were on Long Yu’s fingers.

Long Yu had a relaxed expression that didn’t really change.

But Murong Ce’s expression was bursting red and everyone could see that he was already using 100% of his spirit power, yet he was still unable to thrust his sword any further. Long Yu was merely using two fingers to stop Murong Ce from advancing!

Long Yu’s cultivation was superior to Murong Ce, far beyond!

If a bodyguard already had such cultivation, how terrifying was the Northern Dusk Kingdom’s crown prince?

It was unimaginable!

Murong Ce suddenly realized he had overestimated himself and was overconfident.

Just as his strength was gradually weakened, Long Yu suddenly released his grip.

After the cold eyes glanced across Murong Ce, Long Yu didn’t say anything. He jumped up and landed on the roof of the Flaxen Moon Palace. He had a casual stance and indifferent eyes. No one else dared to take another step closer to the Flaxen Moon Palace, nor did they dare to make any more noise.

Murong Ce’s body was frozen stiff. He bit his pale lips and looked at the tightly shut gates of the Flaxen Moon Palace. Am I really that far inferior to Yun Mojin? Just a mere bodyguard is already making me feel such deep fear.

The Northern Dusk Kingdom was so powerful? 

Anguish! Hatred!

If Murong Ce was born in the Northern Dusk Kingdom, he was certain that he was stronger than Yun Mojin!

Inside the Flaxen Moon Palace…

Yun Mojin was leaning lazily on the reclining chair made of spirit beast pelt.

After those martial artists left, Long Yu walked inside.

“Those brazen and ignorant have left. And that Purple Moon Kingdom’s Seventh Prince, he is truly overestimating himself!” Long Yu frowned as he said. Why is the Purple Moon Kingdom filled with overconfident martial artists? With their measly strength and they dare to demand an audience with the Crown Prince?

“Murong Ce?” Yun Mojin raised his eyes as his black pupils were seemingly flashing with some emotions.

“Yes, he is Xiao Qianhan’s fiance who you asked me to investigate. But just a few days ago, their arranged marriage had been canceled.” Long Yu replied.

Yun Mojin’s eyes had slight movements as he let out a light smirk, “Have you taught him a lesson?”

“Ahh?” Long Yu blinked his eyes. Teach what lesson?

“Did you not beat him up until he cannot participate in the National Test tomorrow?” Yun Mojin raised his eyes as his black pupils had icy-snow intent.

Long Yu shook his head, “No, he didn’t execute the second move. He is too cowardly to continue and I cannot be bothered to beat him up too.”

Furthermore, you didn’t give the order either! Of course, Long Yu didn’t dare to add on this statement.

“The Flaxen Moon Palace is too dirty, go and clean it up.” Yun Mojin lowered his eyes and gave a soft command.

Long Yu widened his eyes. What did I do wrong again? Did I do something wrong? Why don’t I know?
