Immortal of the Nine Realms

Chapter 367: Yes, It’s Your Turn

"Ninth Brother, I advise you not to meddle in this," said Qian Feng coldly, his words carrying a threat.

Qian Jiuye chuckled. "You can't persuade me not to, Second Brother."

Qian Feng's expression shifted erratically. He snorted coldly as he looked at Jue Wudi, “This matter has nothing to do with us, people of the royal family; this is all Qian Jiuye's own decision."

"I understand, Second Prince." Jue Wudi nodded lightly, then looked at Qian Jiuye with a hint of disdain. In his eyes, the status of a prince was no different from a ragged piece of cloth.

"Ninth Prince, I can't do that. You'll have to go to the Jue Family and ask our ancestor yourself," said Jue Wudi.

"Was your ancestor really the one who made this decision?" Qian Jiuye looked slightly skeptical. Why would a dignified Golden Core Realm ancestor allow someone to bully a little girl? He had only believed half of what the bystanders said before, thinking that this matter might have been caused by some arrogant member of the Jue Family.

"It seems you still don't understand the situation, Ninth Prince." Jue Wudi chuckled lightly. "This isn't something we, the younger generation, can have a say in. I hope you can persuade Fang Chen to let it go so we can avoid shedding blood today, Ninth Prince."

Qian Jiuye was taken aback. He couldn't help but look at Fang Jue and Fang Yun. Something doesn't seem right here....

"Ninth Prince, you should stay out of this matter," said Fang Jue softly.

"Wouldn't that be inappropriate? I've already spoken up. It seems like I’ll embarrass myself if I don’t follow through," muttered Qian Jiuye.

"You can’t survive on face, Ninth Prine. Since Fang Chen and Fang Xiu want to help her, the Fang family is already involved. I'll help you out," Fang Jue said with a faint smile. He looked at Jue Wudi and declared loudly, "I, Fang Jue, from the third branch of the Fang Family, will also be intervening in this matter."

When Qian Jiuye heard this, he was more than happy to take a few steps back and blend in with the crowd

Glancing at Fang Chen, Fang Yun said, "I didn't expect you to be so warm-hearted."

She squatted down in front of Jiang Tianai and whispered, "Little sister, what did your family do to offend the Jue Family? Why are they treating you like this? Tell your sister here."

Jiang Tianai's lips moved slightly, but she didn't make a sound.

'Is she mute?' thought Fang Yun as she glanced at Fang Chen 'A blind and a mute...."

"It seems that the third and fourth branches are really set on clashing with the Jue Family today."

"You seem to have forgotten one thing; the people from the fourth and third branches aren't enough to fight against Jue Wudi."

"That's hard to say. You weren't here to witness Fang Chen's skills earlier. That incredible control over the five elements.... To be honest, in all of my years of cultivation, it's the first time we've seen something like that."

"Even people in the Foundation Building Realm might not be able to match Fang Chen's control over the metal element. Today was really eye-opening, we got to see the real power of the metal element. I heard it was powerful, but it was all hearsay. I never really saw it for myself. We'll have to spend some time practicing the metal element from now on."

The crowd murmured among themselves.

Jue Wudi's gaze was indifferent. He glanced at Fang Jue, then at Fang Xiu, and finally looked at Fang Chen. He chuckled and said, "I'll give you three a choice. As long as the three of you can take five moves from me without going down, you can take this girl away. If the ancestor blames anyone, I'll take responsibility."

He paused for a moment then added, "Otherwise, I hope you can hand her over and stop making things difficult for me."

The crowd was surprised. The three of them teaming up to withstand five moves?

Fang Jue suddenly spoke up. "Who said we need to team up? I'll be the one to take your first move."

Fang Yun's expression was serious. "Be careful, Elder Brother."

Jue Wudi was this generation's prodigy. Even taking one of his moves was extremely dangerous!

Fang Jue smiled. "Don't worry, I can handle one move. It should be alright even if I can't."

Fang Yun immediately understood what he meant, and so did the others around.

"That's fine. After Fang Jue takes one of your moves, I'll take one too." Fang Xiu smiled. Pausing for a moment, he looked at Fang Chen. "You'll have to handle the last three moves. We won't be able to help."

Before Fang Chen could speak, Jue Wudi nodded lightly and said, "That's fine. Three moves are nothing."

With that said, his gaze fell on Fang Jue.

Fang Jue's expression became unusually serious.

The people around them retreated one after another, afraid of being affected by the battle between the two.

The figures of the Grand Qian Guards had appeared around, but they didn't enter. Instead, they stood nearby, quietly watching.

This was an unwritten rule in the Imperial Capital.

The friction between the two major families, coupled with the presence of the second prince and the ninth prince, made it unnecessary for the Grand Qian Guards to seek trouble for themselves.

"I'm going to make my move," said Jue Wudi lightly.

Fang Jue began to circulate his spiritual energy and formed a barrier around him. At the same time, a round ball appeared in his palm.

The next moment, a golden figure appeared in mid-air. It was wielding a sword in each hand. The golden figure smashed down the swords fiercely!

"Metal elemental energy!”

"Jue Wudi's control over the metal element isn't bad at all!"

The onlookers were shocked.

Pfft!

The moment the swords came into contact with the barrier, it was cut through like tofu.

Fang Yun reflexively let out a cry of surprise.

However, the next second, the round ball in Fang Jue's hand suddenly burst into a bright golden light. Giant golden swords appeared out of nowhere, protecting him.

"Isn't that the Giant Sword Shield? That's a top-notch defensive treasure among low-grade, yellow-rank treasures!"

"This treasure is not cheap. It was selling for 120 spirit stones the last time I saw it at the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. It is much more expensive than your average yellow rank treasures."

The crowd was amazed.

The defense of the Giant Sword Shield was incredibly strong, at least several times stronger than similar treasures of the same grade!

A faint sneer flashed in Jue Wudi's eyes. "The Giant Sword Shield?"

The giant golden figure's swords continued onwards, crushing the giant golden swords surrounding Fang Jue with unstoppable force.

Fang Jue immediately spewed out a mouthful of blood. He kneeled down, looking weak and weary.

It was clear that he had suffered a serious internal injury.

Neither his spiritual energy barrier nor the Giant Sword Shield had been able to withstand a single strike.

Everyone felt nervous and jittery while watching the battle.

Fang Jue smiled bitterly and said, "It's your turn, Fang Xiu."

With that, he sat down where he was and began to recuperate.

Fang Xiu nodded lightly and took a few slow steps forward, looking at Jue Wudi.

The fourth branch's disciples were on tenterhooks.

A green light flashed, and a flying sword shot out with sharp momentum, heading straight for Jue Wudi.

Fang Xiu didn't choose to defend; he chose to attack!

Jue Wudi faintly smiled. He extended his hand forward and made a grabbing motion at the flying sword. A golden arm materialized and effortlessly seized the incoming sword.

Then...

Crack...

The flying sword was shattered to bits, its fragment clanging to the street.

Fang Xiu staggered. Blood oozed from the corner of his mouth.

His spiritual weapon had been completely shattered.

As silence fell, the disciples of the fourth branch revealed painful looks. Their chief disciple had lost so easily.

Neither Fang Jue nor Fang Xiu were qualified to withstand a single move from Jue Wudi....

Seeing the consecutive defeats of the two outstanding talents from the Fang Family, some of the Jue Family disciples present couldn't help but laugh to themselves.

Now, only Fang Chen was left. He had to face three moves alone to win!

Jiang Tianai was very nervous, and she subconsciously tightened her grip on Fang Chen's hand.

When Fang Chen saw how nervous she was, he smiled, lowered his head, and whispered, "It's okay."

Jiang Tianai settled down a little with his reassurance.

Jue Wudi's voice sounded. "It's your turn, Fang Chen."

Fang Chen nodded, a talisman burning to ashes in his hand.

"Yes, it's my turn."

He didn't have to reveal that he was a sword cultivator to deal with an opponent of this level.
