Chapter 358 Problem In The Capital
Battles started halting. Even below, the men stopped fighting. Generals of both sides stopped the battle.
Liu Feng looked at the crown prince, waiting for a response.
The crown prince was tensed as he retrieved a talisman from his spatial ring.
The talisman burnt to a crisp immediately, and a voice came from within.
"This is a urgent message to everyone! The Capital is under siege! Come to defend the throne as the more qualified of the two will take the throne immediately!" The voice said.
Liu Feng looked at the crown prince, who looked back.
"So it turns out that the throne was never destined for me. But we cannot allow the throne to fall into the hands of someone that can potentially destroy all of Tiandu. We need to go to the capital and take back what is rightfully the Tian family's." The crown prince said.
Swish!
People appeared behind the crown prince and behind Liu Feng in an instant.
"Young Noble. We must go to the capital."
"Your Highness, we must go to the capital."
In unison, Tian Jiang and Cai Guo looked at the ones that they were supporting and told them.
"Yes. I am aware. We need to go to the capital so that I can claim my throne. One that I rightfully earn." Liu Feng nodded.
"What? Only the crown prince is capable to taking the throne at this time!" Tian Jiang said, exuding some pressure.
"What did you say?" Liu Man's cold voice, combined with the same pressure from Liu Feng, Cai Guo, and everyone else from Liu Feng's side came at him.
"You lost too many, and if this battle continued, many more would be lost. If you do not want to accept your loss, then I would rather fight this out here and then go to the capital." Liu Feng coldly said.
"Leave it, sect master. This throne is just not meant for me. We have lost this battle and we all know it. We were too overconfident with our power, and we did not account for this outcome." The crown prince sighed and said.
"But Your Highness! Tian Jiang was about to protest, when Cai Guo snorted.
"Is this what your priorities are? Your prince will not die today if Young Noble takes the throne. But if anyone else takes the throne, then all of us are dead." Cai Guo said.
"He is right, sect master. We must move, and we must all move fast. The message that came from the palace was short, but it didn't give us any details. I am worried that there is something terrible going on there and that the palace is not able to defend." An old man from behind Tian Jiang said.
"We must move. Let us go to the palace first." Liu Feng nodded.
The moment he said this, his side all disappeared. In the battle field, where Min Wan still was, she also heard this, and her figure also disappeared.
Everyone on his side disappeared, while everyone on the crown prince's side, including the ones that lost, were waiting for what the crown prince was about to say.
"What are we waiting for then? This is not a small matter! The throne might be lost! We cannot afford that! Let us all move!" He shouted.
Everyone nodded, and while Tian Jiang took the crown prince and disappeared so that even the crown prince could travel to the capital as fast as possible, the others disappeared on their own.
The people above all disappeared, while the people below stopped their fighting.
Everyone was just confused, except for the Xiantian experts, who got a message as well.
"People! The war is over! The other side is not the enemy! Everyone in the Xiantian realm here must go to the capital, but if I find that someone here instigated a fight, then I will have his head!" The general on the crown prince's side shouted.
The general on the opposite side nodded, and he gave the same commands to his army. And then, the Xiantian realm experts also started disappearing one by one.
It was interesting to see. Within just a few minutes, from a war that was happening with such pace and viciousness just stopped and came to a standstill.
Every expert on the field just disappeared after calling a truce.
"What is going on? I thought that throne was on the line. Who would give up a battle like this when we are winning it?" Someone whined on Liu Feng's side.
They knew what was going up there. They could see the people slowly fumble and come down to refrain from battle.
Their side was beating the other one black and blue, and it was not even a competition. Not one from Liu Feng's side had fallen as of yet, which was a little comic in a way.
"Shut up! Did you not understand, instigating a fight? Keep your mouth shut." A more experienced veteran with more white hair and a stronger cultivation base shut him up instantly.
The strongest among them, someone in the peak of the nascent soul realm, took command.
"We must not engage! Go back and create a gap between the two armies!" He shouted, as the armies on both sides started retreating.
Once again, a chasm was created between both armies, so that they wouldn't accidentally fight for no reason at all.
*****
Meanwhile, in the Imperial Palace,
When Liu Feng and his group of experts arrived at the imperial palace, he was expecting to see a battered up palace, with experts fighting everywhere.
But he didn't see that. He saw none of that. All he saw was that there were more guards on the perimeter. He didn't see any signs of a fight taking place.
"What is going on here? Is this a prank?" Liu Feng frowned.
