The Peerless Emperor-Chapter 1434 - 1435: The Outbreak of Conflict

Capítulo 1434: Chapter 1435: The Outbreak of Conflict

After Yuan Chu finished speaking, he waved his hand, signaling everyone it was time to leave: “Alright, stop thinking about unnecessary things.”

With that, Yuan Chu was the first to step into the portal.

Zhuge Ming did not take Yuan Chu’s words to heart; instead, his mind continued to replay the contents of the ancient texts he had seen earlier, continuously calculating arrays and fully comprehending their contents.

Eventually, planning to enhance Huaxia Empire’s Jade Gate.

Yuan Chu naturally was unaware that Zhuge Ming, whom he deemed incapable of constructing a portal, truly had this ability.

Lin Qian chuckled and shook his head, offering no further explanation and followed into the portal.

The cost of the portal was naturally borne by Yuan Chu, and Lin Qian observed that it required expenses at least twenty times higher than the Jade Gate.

This indicates that the energy consumed by the portal is much higher than that of the Jade Gate, and it is not quite perfected.

However, the portal has its advantages; otherwise, Zhuge Ming wouldn’t be so obsessed with it.

The greatest advantage of the portal is its speed, and secondly, its stability.

It’s not that the teleportation array lacks stability, but the stability of the portal allows for the transportation of larger quantities of items or beings at once.

In comparison, under the same specifications, the portal can transport twice to three times as much as the teleportation array.

A flash of white light flickered before them, and the scene completely unfolded before Lin Qian; they had arrived in Zongyuan City.

Compared to Yuan City, Zongyuan City was even larger in scale; however, within this vast city resided only those from the Yuan family.

Only a mansion in the city center that resembled a small town was the dwelling of the Yuan family’s direct line, and all human clan residents within this massive city were members of the Yuan family! 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

One city, one clan, extremely vast.

In comparison, Yuan City was like a rural area; such a vast city could not be matched even by the Upper Origin Immortal Country of the Upper Realm.

However, if Lin Ancestor and Ye Xuanyan had come to such an immense city in the past, they would have been astonished.

Despite their experiences in the Upper Realm, they rarely encountered such cities.

However, having visited the Nine Provinces and seen the Huaxia Empire’s Nine Provinces Soul Martial Star, their perceptions have been completely transformed.

Because the entire star was a city.

When they arrived on Soul Martial Star, there were no city walls; although divided into many districts, there were no forests separating them; every part was like a city.

One star was equivalent to one city, not to mention it was once the largest known star, Xuanyan Star, in the Upper Realm.

After witnessing Soul Martial Star, they were no longer shocked by a clan-city.

Upon returning to Zongyuan City, Yuan Chu’s expression was full of nostalgia; it was, after all, his hometown where he grew up.

“There are some fun places in the city; after some time, I’ll take you all to enjoy them properly.” Yuan Chu said, looking at Lin Qian and the others, “But first, we need to return to the Yuan family’s main mansion to report.”

On the way, Yuan Chu also explained the so-called reporting to Lin Qian and the others.

The purpose of his return this time is for this trial, not for anything else.

Lin Qian and the others are his external support, and they also need to be reported to the family.

Among them, Lin Ancestor and Ye Xuanyan cannot meet the age requirement; to participate in this trial, one must be under thirty thousand years old.

Lin Ancestor and Ye Xuanyan have long surpassed that.

Conversely, Zhuge Ming, Sun Wukong, and Xu Meng, their puppet bodies similar to their true selves, along with the soul’s age fluctuations, are identical to Lin Qian, all within the age requirement.

With Yuan Chu leading the way, they entered the Yuan family’s main mansion smoothly, soon found themselves inside, following behind Yuan Chu to report within.

After reporting, Yuan Chu took Lin Qian and the others to familiarize themselves with the environment within the Yuan family’s main mansion.

Of course, some secret places within the Yuan family’s main mansion can’t be shown to Lin Qian and the others, but they’ve already toured all the common areas, becoming thoroughly familiar with the place.

While Yuan Chu was leading Lin Qian and the others around the Yuan family, they suddenly encountered a group of people head-on.

The leader’s appearance was quite similar to Yuan Chu, with only a few differences, clearly indicating he was also part of the Yuan family’s direct line.

The person resembling Yuan Chu glanced over and suddenly snorted mockingly: “Oh, isn’t this our young master? Where did you find these oddballs, planning to rely on them for the trial in the divine valley?”

As a fellow Yuan family member, the person sneered and spoke toward Yuan Chu.

Beside him were four others, each exuding remarkable auras, evidently powerful figures in the Saint Realm. The weakest among them was at the Sixth Level of the Saint Realm, another was at the Seventh Level, and two were at the Eighth Level.

Including the leader himself, who was also at the Eighth Level of the Saint Realm, their overall strength was formidable.

On Lin Qian’s side, his own strength level was First Level in the Saint Realm; Sun Wukong, Zhuge Ming, and Xu Meng were also at the First Level in the Saint Realm.

As for Yuan Chu himself, he was at the Fifth Level in the Saint Realm, relatively weaker compared to them.

“Yuan Li, are you only good at talking tough?” Yuan Chu frowned, looking at the clan brother in front of him, his face instantly turned cold, and he spoke, visibly displeased.

Standing beside him, Lin Qian could clearly see that between Yuan Chu and Yuan Li, the conflict was evidently not minor.

Though it was unclear what exactly had transpired between the two brothers.

Lin Qian thought similar conflicts were very common in large families, not surprising at all.

“Whether I’m only good at talking tough will be revealed when the trial begins.” Yuan Li’s expression remained smug as he spoke.

Seeing the other’s demeanor, Yuan Chu clenched his fists, wishing to punch this guy in the face.

But he knew well that he absolutely couldn’t make a move now.

The trial was about to begin; if he caused trouble within the family now, the Clan Leader would definitely not let him off.

“What, do you have some grievance with him?” Lin Qian asked quietly, transmitting his soul consciousness.

“Back then, when I was sent to that small city, Yuan City, it was mainly due to being framed by this guy in front of me.” Yuan Chu gritted his teeth, transmitting soul consciousness to Lin Qian, “If it weren’t for this bastard, I wouldn’t have ended up in a resource-starved place, and my realm wouldn’t have progressed so slowly.”

“What did he frame you for?”

“He sabotaged the family’s grand array!”
