Chapter 1242: Chapter 1243: The Prince Is Humbled
The four of them, upon hearing the other partyâs words, their expressions turned cold. Among them, the young Illusion Clan member Huan Yue directly spoke, âThe four of us have our own judgment; thereâs no need for you, Ninth Prince, to worry.â
After Huan Yue finished speaking, the other three also looked at the approaching Four-Eyed Spirit Clan Prince, their gaze showed no hint of friendliness.
Huan Yueâs words and the expressions of the other three made the visiting Four-Eyed Spirit Clan Princeâs face become awkward and stiff, his originally smiling face grew somewhat stagnant.
Clearly, he didnât expect the four of them would be so decisive, leaving no room for courtesy.
Originally, he noticed that recently, the attitude of the Four Clansâ four children towards him seemed different from before.
In the past, the other party seemed willing to make friends, appreciating each other. When discussing, they always said that it was their five people that this generation relied upon.
The future of Daojiang Country was entirely resting on their shoulders.
But for some unknown reason, the other partyâs attitude took an unexpected turn.
Especially now, they were actually speaking for a Human Clan member, contradicting him, leaving no courtesy at all, which was simply unfathomable.
This awkward expression remained for a moment, then the Ninth Prince of Daojiang Country, Yang Huakun, his expression gradually changed, staring intently at the four in front of him.
âHuan Yue, Lang Mingze, Yun Xinghe, Xing Ming, you four must think carefully, what kind of attitude is this!â Yang Huakun, having come back to his senses, no longer kept the previous politeness, his expression darkened, he growled with a deep voice.
Seeing Yang Huakun get angry, the Four Clansâ four children showed no fear. Lang Mingze even stood up directly and took a couple of steps towards him, confronting him, âWhat, Ninth Prince wants to fight us? Although weâre famous in this generation, who wins or loses is not certain yet.â
When mentioning this, Yang Huakunâs eyes suddenly flashed with a cold glint, and the purple blood aura flowed within his bloodline, though it did not manifest outwardly.
In fact, as Lang Mingze said, if they were to fight, itâs really uncertain who would win or lose.
Even now, compared to Yang Huakun, the fighting power of the Four Clansâ four children was on par, and in a battle, they might even have the upper hand.
Compared to Yang Huakun, who seemed to be more privileged and sheltered, the Four Clansâ four children had often fought in dangerous secret realms, honing themselves and refining their skills.
Their ability to fight was absolutely stronger than the delicate Yang Huakun.
âTake care, one day, you will regret your actions!â Yang Huakun snorted coldly, swung his robe, and left, leaving only his harsh words behind, âOne day, even if the four of you join forces, youâll find youâre not a match for this Prince!â
Watching Yang Huakunâs departing back, a shadow crossed the eyes of the Four Clansâ four children.
They knew the threat from Yang Huakun and understood the deeper reasons behind it.
Knowing the truth, they realized that, in Yang Huakunâs eyes, they were merely targets for him to plunder their aptitude. Building a close relationship was just to better and more conveniently seize their potential.
In the past, he didnât make a move because he hoped they would cultivate to increase their realm, refining and honing themselves. The stronger their power became, the more their potential would be fully developed.
In this way, the effect of plundering would be even better.
Uniting their forces still wouldnât make them opponents; once their potential was plundered, they would merely become a springboard for his growth, making it even less likely for them to be his opponents.
The commotion on this side also attracted some peopleâs attention around. Seeing the most renowned royal family and the four clansâ talents in Daojiang Country having an internal conflict over a Human Clan member, many clicked their tongues in surprise.
However, in their view, the Four Clansâ four children were truly foolish; for the sake of a mere Human Clan member, they actually offended the royal Four-Eyed Spirit Clan Prince, which was laughable.
Itâs just a pity that these people did not know the true identity of the Four-Eyed Spirit Clan, nor were they aware of his ambitious intentions. If they did, they would definitely not have such thoughts.
The world may be oblivious, but they are awake.
Sitting at the table, Lin Qian watched the scene before him, quietly contemplating, and already had a plan in mind.
âCome closer, I have something to bestow upon you.â Then, Lin Qian spoke, addressing the four people in front of him.
The Four Clansâ four children suddenly heard Lin Qianâs words, a bit puzzled, but they still obediently approached.
They had already made a heart oath, and under the subtle influence of imperial majesty, they would naturally follow Lin Qianâs words.
As soon as they were close, Lin Qianâs index finger moved like lightning, touching their foreheads one by one.
In an instant, information emerged, surfacing in their sea of consciousness, and was imprinted in their soul depths.
With this, they understood in their hearts but couldnât speak or spread it.
âThis⊠this isâŠâ The Four Clansâ four children were excited, looking up at Lin Qian.
Lin Qian was indifferent, still composed, gazing at the table where the Array was subtly changing the names of the dishes, selecting while commenting, âThis Cultivation Technique is improved based on the characteristics of your Four Clans and the original techniques, but it can only be considered a basic type.â
âEven though itâs basic, once cultivated, you donât have to worry about Netherworld Clan members plundering your potential in battle.â
Having said this, Lin Qian conjured several dish names with soul energy, sending them to the palace chefs to see and prepare.
The Four Clansâ four children were now engrossed in the Cultivation Technique, unable to extricate themselves. After carefully reading it, they couldnât wait to secretly practice it a bit.
Sure enough, there was a world of change within them.
Strangely enough, while attempting the Cultivation Technique secretly, there was not much fluctuation in their aura.
Besides the mysterious nature of the technique itself, there was also the fact of their own extraordinary aptitude and intelligence.
This scene made Lin Qian quite satisfied, and he began to taste the first dish presented in front of him: âDonât be too happy yet, this is just the most basic kind. When you become Huaxia people of the Empire, donât slack off, work hard for the Empire. By that time, there will be better Cultivation Techniques available.â
âIsnât the feeling of attaining better Cultivation Techniques through your own efforts indescribably wonderful?â
The Four Clansâ four children took a deep breath, their eyes filled with anticipation; is there even better than this basic one?
Lin Qianâs words made them wonder if they were dreaming.
After the joy subsided, Huan Yue had another question: âYour Majesty, why, after cultivating this technique, do we no longer have to worry about the Netherworld Clan plundering our potential?â
Huan Yue voiced his question, and the other four looked on with curiosity, eager to know the reason.
