Wang Yi's gaze flickered, but he felt a sense of confusion in his heart. Logically, after killing Zhou Mengling, the court should have issued a manhunt against him. However, the current situation seemed as if he had not killed a Prime Minister of the nation, but rather a mere beast, which made Wang Yi speculate quietly.
Liu Bei and Yang Kaihe exchanged glances, their expressions tightening with concern, but they hurriedly arranged for Zhao Xuan to take a seat.
After three rounds of drinks.
Suddenly, a cold and merciless voice came from Zhao Xuan: “Wang Yi, do you know your crime?”
“Indeed!”
A family head was startled, and the wine cup in his hand fell to the ground.
“Your Highness, please forgive me.” Liu Bei and the others immediately changed their expressions and hurriedly stood up to bow.
Zhao Ruixue, sitting at the table, was taken aback upon hearing Zhao Xuan's cold and merciless voice, her jade-like face filled with worry.
“Wang Yi does not know what crime he has committed; I ask Your Highness to clarify,” Wang Yi said calmly.
“Hmph, child, is it not you who killed the current Prime Minister Zhou Mengling?” The Gray-Robed Elder suddenly opened his half-closed eyes, a glimmer of sharp light shooting into Wang Yi's eyes like an arrow, as if it aimed to pierce Wang Yi's vision.
“Hmph.” Wang Yi snorted coldly, a red glow shooting from his eyes.
Buzz!
The two mental forces collided rapidly, sending an inaudible sound wave rippling out like a tide, causing several people to spit blood.
The Gray-Robed Elder did not expect Wang Yi's mental power to be so formidable. He felt as if his consciousness was easily devoured by Wang Yi like a weak lamb. A sharp pain surged through his Sea of Consciousness as he spat out blood, his withered face showing an expression of horror. He pointed at Wang Yi and said, “How is this possible? You have just entered Breakthrough; how can your mental power be stronger than mine?” He finished speaking with an expression of self-doubt.
“Hmph, old man, if there’s another time, don’t blame me for being rude,” Wang Yi said coldly as he glanced at the Gray-Robed Elder. In his heart, he secretly laughed coldly; if the Court truly wanted to capture him, they would not send just one Zhao Xuan. On the contrary, Zhao Xuan's arrival must have other intentions; as for the current situation, it was likely an attempt to test him.
“Stop.” Zhao Xuan waved his hand to dismiss the black-clad men and turned to look at Wang Yi with an expressionless face. “Wang Yi, you killed the current dignified Prime Minister; do you have guilt or not?”
"That is his own doing," Wang Yi said coldly.
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expression changed drastically. They did not expect Wang Yi to be so disrespectful in front of the Crown Prince, and they all speculated that Wang Yi was doomed this time.
"Good, good, what a self-inflicted disaster."
Unexpectedly, Zhao Xuan laughed instead of getting angry and said, "Wang Yi, you killed my Prime Minister of the Song Dynasty; according to the law, you should be executed. However, my father the Emperor cherishes talent. While you can be spared death, you cannot escape punishment. I have come here on my father's orders to inform you that in three months, you are to enter the capital, where a significant matter will be entrusted to you to redeem your sins."
"Enter the capital?" Wang Yi was taken aback and asked with some confusion. He thought to himself, "It seems I was right; Zhao Xuan just wanted to establish authority and use both carrot and stick tactics to make me grateful and serve the Court."
"That's right. As for what it is, you do not need to know. Just enter the capital and meet the Emperor in three months," Zhao Xuan nodded and said lightly.
"Wang Yi obeys." Wang Yi pondered for a moment before cupping his hands in salute.
Afterward, Zhao Xuan gave a few more instructions before leaving the Kaiyang Sect.
At sunset, the ceremony concluded.
Kaiyang Great Hall.
"Master, what does His Majesty want with me in the capital?" Wang Yi pondered for a long time but could not figure out why Zhao Kuangyin had summoned him.
"Wang Yi, you need not worry. I suspect that His Majesty's summoning of you to the capital must involve an important task; otherwise, he would not have sent the Crown Prince but rather someone to kill you," Liu Bei said with a smile. "You have reached Breakthrough at such a young age of under twenty; truly, you are a talent not seen in our Song Dynasty for a thousand years. With the Emperor's appreciation for talent, he would absolutely not do anything else."
"Mm." Wang Yi nodded.
"Wang Yi, you and Zhao Ruixue seem to be quite fond of each other. Do you need me to approach the Zhao Family on your behalf regarding this matter? It has already become quite a beautiful affair," Liu Bei said with a smile.
"Yes, big brother. I think Zhao Ruixue also likes you quite a bit; why don't you just marry her?" Niu Meng laughed heartily and said, "Isn't that right, everyone?"
"Yes, yes! If that's the case, it would be double happiness for our Kaiyang Sect!" Liu Ba said with a smile.
"Master..." Wang Yi showed a hesitant expression.
Little did he know, Liu Bei waved his hand and said, "Alright, what does a big man need to fuss about? I will send someone to invite the two old men from the Zhao Family."
Before long, Zhao Sheng and Zhao Qi arrived at the main hall and bowed, saying, "We are not sure why Liu Zongzhu has summoned us."
"Elder Zhao, please take a seat. The reason for inviting you two elders here is to inform you of a significant good news," Liu Bei said with a smile. "My Elder Wang and Zhao Ruixue have feelings for each other, so I would like to act as the matchmaker. What do you two elders think?"
"Ah!" Zhao Sheng and Zhao Qi were taken aback, then filled with joy. It should be noted that Wang Yi is only twenty years old and already a Breakthrough Expert. If he continues to improve over the next ten years, he could very well become a Transcendent Realm Expert. At that time, the Zhao Family might not just be the number one family in Xiangzhou Prefecture but could become the number one family in the Song Kingdom.
"What? Are the two elders unwilling?" Liu Bei's expression suddenly turned cold.
"Please give your orders, Liu Zongzhu," Zhao Sheng said as he exchanged glances with Zhao Qi and quickly stood up to bow.
"Good, since that's settled, let’s choose three days from now for the wedding," Liu Bei nodded. He then turned to Wang Yi with a smile and said, "Elder Wang, this is my first time acting as a matchmaker for someone. How will you thank me?"
"Master's great kindness is deeply appreciated. I, Wang Yi, will ensure the safety of Kaiyang Sect," Wang Yi declared loudly.
For the next three hours, Wang Yi focused on his cultivation and advanced the Nine Profound Dragon Technique to the fourth layer, breaking through to the third level of Breakthrough.
Three days later.
Kaiyang Sect was festively decorated, filled with joy and celebration all around.
Families from Xiangzhou Prefecture had all come to attend.
After several rounds of drinks, night fell.
In a room adorned for celebration, a Jade Beauty sat on the bed, dressed in red attire with a red veil atop her head. The room was filled with her enchanting fragrance, as beautiful and vibrant as flowers in all seasons, captivating those who entered and making it hard to escape its allure.
Creak!
A sudden sound of the door opening broke the silence in the room, causing Jade Beauty to shiver slightly.
"Xue Er."
A soft call came from Wang Yi as he looked at Zhao Ruixue, his eyes filled with affection.
"Wang Yi."
Zhao Ruixue's voluptuous figure trembled gently, releasing strands of fragrant aroma.
Wang Yi slowly walked to the beauty's side, sitting next to her. He extended his right hand and gently removed the red veil from Zhao Ruixue's head. Instantly, a captivating fragrance wafted over, reminiscent of peach blossoms, making Wang Yi feel as if he were drinking sweet wine from a spring, igniting a fire in his heart.
Before him was Jade Beauty, her beautiful hair dancing in the wind, her arched phoenix brows, a pair of starry eyes holding a hint of mystery, a delicate nose, rosy cheeks filled with charm, and lips that exhaled like orchids. Her fair oval face resembled as jade, and her skin was as soft as snow. Her figure was graceful and slender, exuding an ethereal beauty that seemed untouched by the mundane world.
Gazing at the Jade Beauty so close before him and inhaling the intoxicating scent in the air, Wang Yi's eyes revealed a hint of heat. Unable to control himself, he pulled Jade Beauty into his embrace, the fragrance enchanting. "Xue Er."
"Wang Yi." Zhao Ruixue's cheeks turned as red as a ripe apple. Her beautiful eyes brimmed with emotion, seemingly ready to spill over with tears. She was stunningly charming, leaving Wang Yi mesmerized.
"Silly." Zhao Ruixue smiled sweetly, revealing infinite tenderness.
Wang Yi couldn't help but press Jade Beauty beneath him, filling the room with springtime warmth.
During these three months, Wang Yi and Zhao Ruixue had traveled together, enjoying their time freely. However, good times often pass quickly.
"Wang Yi, as you head to the capital, you must take care." Zhao Ruixue tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and looked at Wang Yi with autumn-like eyes, speaking softly.
"Mm." Wang Yi nodded, gazing affectionately at Zhao Ruixue. He embraced her tightly and said, "Don't worry; I will be back soon."
"Mm, I'll wait for you." Zhao Ruixue nodded gently, her beautiful eyes filled with love.
Then, under Zhao Ruixue's reluctant gaze, Wang Yi left Kaiyang Sect and set off on his journey to the capital.
"Wang Yi, you finally came out."
A young man in black stood straight at the foot of the Kaiyang Sect mountain, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Wang Yi, I have now broken through to the Mysterious Realm. Today, I will avenge my father."
"Yang Jun."
Looking at the young man radiating killing intent, Wang Yi was momentarily stunned. Although this person was dressed in black and had a scar on his face that marred his original appearance, he still recognized him. He just didn't expect Yang Jun to have broken through to the Mysterious Realm and to be exuding such a strong aura of killing intent. It was clear that he had gone through a lot over the past year.
Yang Jun glared at Wang Yi with a face full of killing intent, his fists clenched tightly, his bloodshot eyes resembling those of a wild beast ready to devour Wang Yi whole. For more than a year, he had been consumed by thoughts of revenge, tirelessly working to enhance his cultivation. To strengthen his power, he had ventured alone into the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
Killing humans and slaughtering beasts were the only things he had done during this time. After dozens of life-and-death battles and narrowly escaping death more than ten times, he finally broke through to the Mysterious Realm three days ago.
The moment he broke through to the Mysterious Realm, he immediately thought of Wang Yi. The grudge for his father's murder must be avenged!
"Leave!" Wang Yi calmly looked at the murderous Yang Jun and said calmly：“You are not my opponent yet. Go back and continue your training, then come find me for revenge."
"Hmph, Wang Yi, don't lie! I have already broken through to the Mysterious Realm and can surely avenge my father!" Yang Jun snorted coldly and said in a chilling voice, "Today, I will take revenge for my father." With that, Yang Jun waved his hand, and a Golden Blade appeared in his grasp. With an angry shout, he charged at Wang Yi.
