Chapter 556 Immensity of Heaven and Earth
?A silence in which the singing of summer insects could be heard loud and clear fell onto the grassy plain for a moment.
"You dare!"
"Presumptuous!
The elder members from both sides shouted in unison while the younger Prince from the side carriage widened his eyes.
"Wha-... this old man gone crazy!
Wait... I know him! That's General Feng of the Fantian Kingdom right?! Woah! Hahaha!
Didn't think I would find a celebrity here!
Hmm, shall I fight him and become the man who finally defeated and killed the legendary warrior of the region?"
The young Prince looked closer at the red-haired man with the spear, and recognizing the features almost jumped up with excitement, a bloodthirsty light appearing in his eyes as he traced his chin.
"Hoho, that is a good idea, Duo'er, a worthy first real prey for the future Emperor"
The Elderly man who this Song Duo called 'Grandpa' earlier suddenly quelled down his anger and indignation.
His words made the women on the other side of the main carriage frown.
But then, Song Duo's eyes caught something, as his focus shifted from General Feng slightly to the side.
"Oh my, what a find. What a juicy babe! A redhead, that'll be a first for me!
Hah! I suppose I can forgive you if you give me that woman. I'll even promise to talk with the others to overlook your disrespect earlier"
The young man spoke as his eyes glistened with greed and lust.
"... haha...hahaha! Truly, a toad lusting after a swan's meat! Do you even know whose woman you are laying your eyes on?"
Among the slight confusion, Feng Huan started laughing after a moment of bewilderment.
Strangely, even though such words toward his little sister would have without a shadow of a doubt caused a raging fury from him in the past, now it seemed so far stretched into fantasy that such insinuations sounded funny instead.
The sheer absurdity of that impossible claim completely negating its offensive meaning.
"Hah! Whoever it is will simply become prey to my blade. Though it is a pity she's run through already, but no matter, I guess it's fun to make some sucker's woman my bitch as well"
Song Duo looked unfazed, rather only a little disappointed.
"You'll have better luck dying than getting even close to me. I have no interest in pathetic men"
Feng Yi coldly spoke without a moment of hesitation.
"Ooh, feisty! I like it! Makes it fun to imagine what you'll sound like pinned under me while your man lies in a puddle of his own blood beside the bed"
The eyes of the Prince shined with more excitement as he licked his lips.
However, his grandfather behind him and the uncle slightly paled at the mention of this woman belonging to someone, as a voice devoid of emotions saying "We. Are. Not. The Same", that enunciated each word reverberated in their heads.
"D-Duo'er! You shouldn't get distracted by women.
Killing General Feng would be a good enough achievement to push you to the Throne..."
"Hahaha, no, no, Grandpa, I already decided!
I like her! So I'll kill this old man and take her anyway!"
The Prince laughed and his legs sprang forward, a halberd appearing in his hands.
The two weapons clashed under the gleeful eyes of Song Guanyu who took this overly arrogant favorite for the Throne on this trip on purpose.
A flurry of strikes were unleashed as the Imperial Prince whose cultivation turned out to be in the Foundation Building Realm struggled and was pushed back after just two attacks.
""D-Duo'er!""
His uncle and grandfather worriedly spoke at the same time, slightly leaning forward in a pose ready to move at any time.
"Uncle, Grand-uncle, you make this awkward for Cousin Duo. He srives for a reputation of a Warrior Emperor, is he not? How will he able to show his face if you hover over him like that?"
Song Guanyu spoke with a sly smile on his lips, as the two men narrowed their eyes at him, clenching their fists.
"That's right, Cousin, Uncle. You have to let him gain experience. When he prevailed over my second son, did you see me leaping onto the stage when he cut his arm off?
Where's your ease from back then when you told me a battle is unpredictable, and the blade is blind?"
The woman from the other carriage spoke with a smile as well. The two elderly women behind her maintaining neutral expressions.
"Fuck! This old man's no joke! Hahaha!
But what will you say to this!!! Beast Strength Art!!!"
Song Duo, meanwhile, with a bleeding cut on his cheek, suddenly leaped back and a glow appeared around him.
*Crackle!*
An earring on one of his ears shattered with a high-pitched sound, and his hair turned light azure color, his eyes turning silver and then emitting a silvery light.
His muscles started expanding slightly, and there appeared an unusual pressure from him.
"Hah! Interesting! It seems I have to teach this mongrel the immensity of Heaven and Earth!!!"
General Feng's mouth widened in a grin, showing two rows of white teeth in between the red mustache and beard, as the space around the man became slightly discolored.
'Hmm, this is the fist time I notice... but Father's Spear Intent feels different from Wu Long's... not only in the strength, but somewhat, simply different...'
Feng Yi's eyes narrowed as she observed this fight, noticing something she could not put her finger on as she witnessed her Father's Spear Intent for the first time after experiencing Wu Long's Spear Intent.
"Haaaah!!!"
*Clang!!!*
Song Duo shouted as he leaped forward, but his vision blurred as he found that he was flying back upside down the next moment.
""Duo'er!!!""
"On Guard!"
~"""Hu~!"""~
His grandfather and uncle caught him as the Guard Captain gave a swift order and the soldiers took a defensive stance with a shout in unison.
"Hahaha! There are always People above People, and Heavens above Heavens, brat.
Though it's useless for you to learn anything now that your fate has been sealed, at least you might not appear so stupid when you talk to the Yama King"
General Feng was completely nonchalant about an army of spears pointed at him, slowly straightening up while laughing and placing his spear to the side with one hand, the spear butt hitting the ground with a *thud*.
"W-What did you do?!?!
This is-! This is impossible!!! I used the Song Family's secret art to full strength!!
No one in the same Major Realm can stand a chance against me!!!"
Song Duo turned from the sky with the sun shining above to the front while being supported from both sides, his face revealing utter shock and bewilderment.
The women and Song Guanyu also narrowed their eyes, their gleeful smiles fading, as, however sour feeling it brought to acknowledge, they could not deny Song Duo's strength.
He was the scion that was secretly raised as his latent talent to tap into the power of their Spiritual Beast bloodline was recognized shortly after birth, and thus he was trained in secrecy until he exploded into the scene of the Imperial Palace a few months ago.
A child destined to be the next Emperor. The promised child of his line of descent, and the bearer of ambitions of an entire faction of Imperial Family.
Even Song Minfu's position as Crown Prince came into question with his appearance.
It was one of the calculations of Song Guanyu that this major pain in his side would perish during this trip, but he never expected for him to be bested here, rather, there was a completely different scenario that was supposed to play out.
"Hmm, well, in the first place, who told you I am in the same Realm as you?"
General Feng chuckled, as a pressure of a peak Core Formation Realm cultivator pinned the young man and his uncle to the ground, with only the grandfather in the Core Reformation Realm being barely able to not lose out.
"I-Impos-... how is that-...?!"
The elderly Imperial Prince spoke with widening eyes.
"And second of all, while I did use some of the speed of my Realm as your technique is indeed formidable, pure speed and strength is far from enough to compete with me"
General Feng lightly laughed, as the whole Song Dynasty delegation was now put in an awkward position, since there was no one who could oppose this man.
"..."
Song Guanyu hesitated, and then turned to the veiled man to the side of him.
The man whose face was covered with white cloth noticed the gaze, and sighed.
"Haa~... Then, let this old man remind you of the Immensity of Heaven and Earth as well"
A tranquil and young-sounding voice came from behind the veil, and a powerful ripple spread from the white-clothed man, a crushing pressure suddenly appearing as the soldiers of the Feng Family instantly were forced on their knees and even General Feng with his son, as well as Feng Yi who was even higher than them in Realm slightly bent under this presence.
"This presence...! A true Azure Eagle!"
Feng Yi spoke with a note of surprise as she recognized it. She felt something similar in the aura of Song Duo before, but could not quite pinpoint it until this moment.
"Oh my, that's surprising... ah, I remember you now... you were with that youngster on that day the war almost broke out..."
The man spoke with a note of surprise and then recognition, while the surrounding members of the Song Dynasty hurried on their knees.
"Esteemed Great Ancestor! Please forgive our rudeness in not being able to recognize your exalted presence..."
One of the elderly women spoke with reverence as the man waived his hand.
"It's fine, now's not time for that"
He spoke as his head turned back to the people in the front.
