Soul Emperor Martial God-Chapter 700: Du Youyou Taken Away

Xiao Yi mockingly smiled, "Princess Fengxu hasn’t yet taken me to that Ancient Secret Realm."

"Making demands so soon, don’t you think that’s overstepping?"

In fact, Xiao Yi didn’t even know what an Ancient Secret Realm was.

He had no idea what the status of the Ancient Secret Realm was in the Central Region.

To avoid any slip-ups or inappropriateness in his words, he simply made an ambiguous statement.

Princess Fengxu hurriedly said, "Young Master Xiao Yi can rest assured."

"Once tomorrow’s Fengxu refining competition concludes, I will take Young Master Xiao Yi there."

"And, should Young Master Xiao Yi find that Secret Realm unsatisfactory, he may leave at any time."

"The Fengxu Royal Family will not stop him, though, perhaps, they might not be able to."

Xiao Yi nodded.

Princess Fengxu continued, "Now, can we discuss the terms?"

"Speak," Xiao Yi said indifferently.

Princess Fengxu suddenly stood up and then, with a ’thud,’ knelt down heavily.

"What are you doing?" Xiao Yi frowned.

Princess Fengxu said solemnly, "Fengxu implores Young Master Xiao Yi to help us protect the Fengxu Kingdom and defend against the Gale Kingdom."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Yi’s brow furrowed deeply.

"Young Master Xiao Yi doesn’t know?" Princess Fengxu was taken aback and asked perplexedly.

"Could it be that Young Master Xiao Yi is not a person from Fengxu Kingdom?"

"No, not even from the nearby countries," Xiao Yi nodded.

"No wonder," Princess Fengxu expressed a sudden realization, and then her face regained its solemnity.

"The Gale Kingdom harbors ambitious intentions, well-known to the nearby countries."

"Two months ago, the Gale Royal Family gave us their ultimatum."

"Either submit, or in two months’ time, the vast army of the Gale Kingdom will advance towards the Fengxu Kingdom."

Xiao Yi frowned, "Is there a big difference between Fengxu Kingdom and Gale Kingdom?"

"Yes," Princess Fengxu nodded, "A huge difference."

"In the past ten years, the Gale Kingdom has devoured four kingdoms, greatly bolstering their power."

"If they truly target us, in less than a day, their massive army could breach the borders of Fengxu Kingdom."

"The experts of the Gale Kingdom could conquer the Fengxu Capital within three days."

Princess Fengxu gritted her teeth, "The experts and soldiers of Fengxu Kingdom will never submit."

"That is to say, the Gale Kingdom will surely ignite a great war within half a month."

"At that time, the Fengxu Kingdom will be wrought with great suffering."

"I sincerely request Young Master Xiao Yi to help deter the butchers from the Gale Kingdom."

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "Does the Gale Kingdom have Heavenly Extreme Realm experts?"

"No," Princess Fengxu shook her head with a bitter smile. "If they had Heavenly Extreme Realm experts, the war would have already started."

"Because they would be able to annihilate Fengxu Kingdom effortlessly."

Experts of the Heavenly Extreme Realm are unbelievably powerful.

A single person could slaughter an entire kingdom.

"I’ll tentatively agree," Xiao Yi said faintly.

"Tomorrow, if I am satisfied with that Secret Realm, I will agree completely."

"Thank you, Young Master Xiao Yi," Princess Fengxu’s face beamed with joy.

"Please rise," Xiao Yi said softly.

The family of Du Youyou was, after all, in Fengxu Kingdom.

If something were to happen to the Fengxu Royal Family, other major powers within the kingdom would not have good days ahead.

If it’s within his ability, then he might as well lend a hand.

Now that he had acknowledged Du Youyou as his disciple, he also had to live up to the title of a mentor.

A mentor was never just a simple title.

Princess Fengxu stood up and sat back down on the cushion.

"You may leave," she waved her hand, and the warriors inside Fengxu Palace immediately withdrew.

Princess Fengxu laughed, "I’ve long known that the Gale Kingdom was up to no good."

"Thus, years ago, I began training elite warriors."

"Besides those five experts at the Peak of Heavenly Origin Realm provided by my father, all others were personally trained by me."

"You must have found that amusing, Young Master Xiao Yi."

Princess Fengxu chuckled lightly, her eyes sparkling with pride.

At such a young age, already at the Peak cultivation of Heavenly Origin Realm, with immense authority and holding a high position.

Moreover, she had trained a force of fighters not inferior to the power of a major force.

She was naturally capable of being content and even proud.

"Heh," Xiao Yi smiled faintly and said, "I have already witnessed the capabilities of Princess Fengxu."

"That Chen Yuan, Princess Fengxu must have wanted to kill him for a long time."

Princess Fengxu, by using Xiao Yi, had killed Chen Yuan and could also take the opportunity to win over Xiao Yi.

What a way to kill two birds with one stone.

Princess Fengxu’s face reddened as she said, "This little girl’s skills are but minor tricks; I certainly can’t hide them from Young Master Xiao Yi."

"That Chen Yuan is the Eldest Young Master of the Gale Trading Company and its only heir."

"His actions are arrogant and overbearing, tyrannical and ruthless. His death is not a pity."

"Besides, the Gale Trading Company is one of the largest forces in the Gale Kingdom."

"The death of Chen Yuan might cause some turmoil in the Gale Kingdom for a while."

"Thereby buying some more time for my Fengxu Kingdom."

Xiao Yi nodded and said, "Alright, let’s conclude today’s conversation with the princess here."

"After the refining competition ends tomorrow, I will come myself."

"Alright, Young Master Xiao Yi, take care," Princess Fengxu said as she rose to see him off.

Just then, Xiao Yi seemed to remember something, turned around, and said, "I have a favor to ask of the princess."

"What is it?" Princess Fengxu asked.

Xiao Yi smiled and said, "I have an unworthy disciple who has always admired Princess Fengxu."

"Soon, I will bring her to meet you."

Princess Fengxu smiled and said, "Young Master Xiao Yi is too kind. Your esteemed disciple must also be extraordinary. I would be honored to meet her."

"Someone, summon Young Master Xiao Yi’s esteemed disciple," Princess Fengxu quickly ordered.

"No need," Xiao Yi shook his head and said, "My disciple is quite mischievous, so I’ll bring her myself."

With that, Xiao Yi turned around and walked out of Fengxu Palace.

Behind him, Princess Fengxu followed closely and said, "Since she is Young Master Xiao Yi’s esteemed disciple, I will personally go to meet her."

Xiao Yi, not wanting to exchange further pleasantries, walked on his own.

Having returned to the entrance of the Royal Palace, Du Youyou was nowhere to be seen.

Xiao Yi smacked his forehead and said helplessly, "Where has this girl run off to now?"

Suddenly, the City Guard Captain who had accompanied him came running over, looking anxious.

"What’s wrong?" Xiao Yi furrowed his brow, a bad feeling flashing through his mind.

"That..." the City Guard Captain stammered.

At that moment, Princess Fengxu also came over.

"Greetings, Princess," all the soldiers present knelt on one knee.

"Dispense with the formalities," Princess Fengxu gently waved her hand, then looked at Xiao Yi and asked, "Young Master Xiao Yi, where is your esteemed disciple?"

Xiao Yi looked toward the City Guard Captain.

The City Guard Captain swallowed and said, "Earlier, an elder from the Wind Dance Sword Sect made a visit."

"He... took Miss Youyou away."

"What?" Xiao Yi’s face changed, and his eyes turned cold immediately.

"Didn’t you say no one would dare cause trouble in the Royal Palace Forbidden Land?"

Xiao Yi’s icy gaze moved from the City Guard Captain to the soldiers in green armor.

The soldier in armor frowned and said, "Young Master Xiao Yi, the person who came was a Heavenly Origin Realm Elder from the Wind Dance Sword Sect. We couldn’t stop him."

Xiao Yi coldly said, "Was it that you couldn’t stop him or that you didn’t even try to?"

"There are no signs of a fight nearby, nor any residual fluctuations of energy."

The soldier’s face changed and said, "Young Master Xiao Yi, the Wind Dance Sword Sect is the First Sect of the Fengxu Kingdom."

"They wouldn’t take someone away for no reason, unless that girl committed some heinous crime..."

"Do you still remember my warning?" Xiao Yi coldly interrupted.

"To stop my disciple, yet let others take her away."

Xiao Yi’s murderous intent was no longer containable.

"Young Master Xiao Yi, you..." the soldiers started to say something.

"A bunch of fools." Xiao Yi coldly shouted and released a Sword Qi.

Dozens of soldiers, all at the Peak of Earth Origin Realm, were instantly killed.

"Young Master Xiao Yi," Princess Fengxu’s face changed. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel-com

"Where is Wind Dance Sword Sect?" Xiao Yi asked coldly.

Without time to think, Princess Fengxu pointed in a direction and said, "Fly five hundred miles in this direction."

"Hmph," Xiao Yi snorted coldly, his figure turning into a streak of light as he flew into the air.
