C210 Not Giving in
Such an identity was unique among the five princes. Even Chu King had high hopes for Hsiang Yunkong.
Back then, Hsiang Yunjie had wanted to follow Hsiang Yunkong and serve the Chu Country. However, due to the weakness of his body, he couldn't join the army. He could only be a useless prince.
"I have to pay my respects to Second Imperial Brother as soon as possible. It has been a few years since I last saw Second Imperial Brother!"
When Hsiang Yunjie heard West Suppressing King's name, he dragged a crippled leg and staggered out, making Ye Tian feel Hsiang Yunjie's respect.
When they arrived below, all the officials present had already knelt down. Ye Tian also came out and saw a valiant young man wearing golden armor and leading a dozen or so cavalry to the front of the Imperial Palace.
The leading golden-armored young man was West Suppressing King, Hsiang Yunkong. From the murderous aura emitted by Hsiang Yunkong, one could sense that he was a hot-blooded general who was constantly in battle.
"Fourth level of the Earth Profound Stage!" Ye Tian was also secretly surprised. It seemed like Hsiang Yunjie was only at the eighth level of the Qi Profound Stage. Even Crown Prince Hsing Yunyang, whom he had seen before, was only at the early Earth Profound Stage.
Hsiang Yunkong, on the other hand, was one of the geniuses who had broken through to such a level on the battlefield.
"Little brother Yunjie greets the Royal Noble!"
Hsiang Yunjie staggered in front of Hsiang Yunkong's horse. He was willing to let the hot breath of Hsiang Yunkong's cavalry hit his face, and then he knelt on the ground.
"Yunjie, you are still so polite. It has been a few years since we last met. Has your body improved?"
When Hsiang Yunkong saw his brother, he did not take West Suppressing King's identity seriously. He got off the horse and helped Hsiang Yunjie up.
He wasn't as arrogant as the other princes. Instead, he had a kind of gentleness that was incompatible with killing, which made people have a good impression of him.
"Thank you for your concern, Wang Hou. I have been doing pretty well recently. I met my good friend, Mr. Ye Tian. Mr. Ye was also invited to help me!"
Hsiang Yunjie and his brother were catching up on old times, and he did not forget to introduce Ye Tian.
In the eyes of ordinary people, Ye Tian was just a guest elder of Hsiang Yunjie. However, when Hsiang Yunjie called him a good friend, this had nothing to do with the guest elder.
A guest elder was a master and servant, while a close friend was at the same level. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were good friends.
After hearing Hsiang Yunjie's introduction, Hsiang Yunkong turned his gaze to Ye Tian and sized him up with a proud gaze.
Of course, Ye Tian was not afraid of this kind of provocative look. He was also very excited. If he could fight Hsiang Yunkong, it would be a good thing.
Hsiang Yunkong's strength was at the fourth level of Earth Profound Stage, which was comparable to an ordinary fifth level Earth Profound Stage warrior. This was also the first time Ye Tian had seen such a brave opponent in such a long time.
"Mr. Ye... just the way you address me shows how much my brother respects you. However, I will also tell you the ugly part. This brother of mine is a descendant of the royal family. If someone has ill intentions, I will not stand by and watch! "
Hsiang Yunkong expressed the fighting intent in his body to the fullest extent, making the rest of the officials kneel on the ground, not daring to make any big movements.
"Haha, I don't need you to say this in a strange way. I know what I should do. Besides, if you don't trust me, just find someone to stand up for your brother!"
Ye Tian didn't hesitate at all. In any case, Hsiang Yunkong spoke in a strange tone, and he didn't need to give him any face.
However, Ye Tian's attitude surprised Hsiang Yunkong. He was the absolute commander in the army. In the Imperial City, except for Chu King and the other nobles, no one dared to do anything against the rules.
Ye Tian's attitude was an exception that he had never encountered in the Imperial City. Even Hsiang Yunjie felt nervous when he saw the current scene.
"If you don't respect my general, kill him!"
Hsiang Yunkong led a dozen or so cavalry generals and instantly released a landslide momentum, intimidating the entire scene. It made all the surrounding officials kneel on the ground, trembling with fear.
Hsiang Yunkong's status among their soldiers was supreme. In the western border, there was only West Suppressing King, not the current Chu King.
Those who dared to speak to West Suppressing King like this, they had to be killed!
"All of you wait here. My brother and I will talk for a while before coming out!"0
Hsiang Yunkong berated. The galloping horses and the irritable knights instantly quieted down. They were like statues, without the slightest bit of restlessness from before.
Hsiang Yunkong made the hundreds of officials kneeling on the ground stand up and naturally went to Hsiang Yunjie's place.
From the beginning to the end, Hsiang Yunkong did not tell Ye Tian anything about what had happened. He let Hsiang Yunjie, who had always been afraid, know that he had worried for nothing.
After saying a few words, Hsiang Yunkong left the place. He packed up outside and went into the Imperial Palace to meet the Saint.
After all, Hsiang Yunkong needed to report the military consumption and the situation at the border in time. Chu King could also make some decisions that needed to be handled immediately.
Time passed very quickly. When the sun was about to set, the doors of the Imperial Palace were wide open. The people waiting here all rushed into the Imperial Palace to prepare for the banquet.
"Mr. Ye, what happened between you and me this morning really scared me to death. If I, Second Elder Brother, really attack, even if there is a problem with him, the entire Imperial City can only target you!"
The distance from the palace gates to the main hall was a few miles. During this period of time, Hsiang Yunjie had also mentioned what happened in the morning.
That West Suppressing King, Hsiang Yunkong, held a large number of troops in his hands. He was Chu King's right-hand man. He doted on his son and was a feudal duke that Chu King feared!
If something really happened, the hundreds of thousands of cavalry behind Hsiang Yunkong would not have placed him in the wrong position. Instead, it was Ye Tian who was in a much more dangerous position at that time.
Ye Tian only smiled at this. Such a thing did not happen, but if it happened, he would not hesitate to make the world lack a West Suppressing King!
When Hsiang Yunjie led Ye Tian to a seat, everyone present was a little surprised. Hsiang Yunjie had not participated in this trial for a few years, and he had almost been forgotten.
Now that he had suddenly appeared, apart from being surprised, no one thought highly of this prince who was in dire straits. How good could he be if he didn't use real money and silver as a foreign delegate?
Above the seats, the two seats were facing each other, and they were only a few steps away from the highest seat, Chu King.
One of the seats was Hsiang Yunkong, who had withdrawn his armor, even though he was wearing an ordinary python robe. However, the Qilin on his chest still showed West Suppressing King's majesty.
Sitting opposite of Hsiang Yunkong was the current Crown Prince Hsing Yunyang. Currently, the Crown Prince wasn't looking at Hsiang Yunkong. Instead, he was looking at Hsiang Yunjie, who had suddenly appeared this year, and Ye Tian, who was sitting beside him.
"My third brother really doesn't want to give up. This time, he thought that he was qualified to participate in such a gathering just because he found Ye Tian. How childish..."
Hsiang Yunyang's tone was very calm. Although Nie Cang didn't say anything, his eagle-like eyes were locked onto Ye Tian.
"Nie Cang, don't scare him like this. Tonight, let my third brother relax. Tomorrow will be the real day..."
Hsiang Yunyang didn't look at Nie Cang, but they had been together for a long time, so they naturally knew what he was doing.
"Big brother, I wonder what you and Great Master Nie are talking about. Could it be that I can't hear what you are saying?"
Right at this moment, Hsiang Yunkong suddenly spoke, stopping the conversation between Hsiang Yunyang and Nie Cang.
"What is West Suppressing King talking about? No matter what I say, I can't let West Suppressing King hear it!"
