On the way to the Origin Martial Palace, Ning Zheng's heart trembled with fear. From the time he could remember, the old ancestor had only been this angry once.
It was Bai Ze's siege five years ago. His younger brother, Prince Wu, had died in the Desolate Mountains. The ancestor was furious and charged towards the Desolate Mountains.
Could it be that another imperial disciple's life jade slip had shattered? Ning Zheng was secretly shocked.
Based on the current strength of the Great Yan Empire, there should not be anyone in the Black North Continent who would dare to kill the Ning Imperial Family. Everyone knew that the old ancestor was a very protective person. Who dared to offend a Deity Transformation Tier expert?
Who else was there outside?
Could it be Ning Xuan? Did something happen during the search in the Barren Forest Mountains?
Please don't! Ning Zheng kept praying in his heart.
Ning Xuan was one of the Princes that he valued the most. He would be participating in the fight for the throne in the future, and it was very likely that he would become the future Emperor of the Great Yan Empire. This time, he had sent him to guard the Desolate Forest City to train him.
Thinking of this possibility, Ning Zheng's pace became even faster.
When Ning Zheng arrived at the Yuan Wu Palace, the nine Great Guardians of the Great Yan Empire had already arrived. They were all kneeling on one knee outside the door, not daring to make a sound.
The Great Yan Empire had a total of 13 Protectors. Two of them were at the divine-tier. One of them was Fa Tianmin, and the other was Liu Chubang, who was at the second-tier divine-tier.
The four guardians who weren't present had followed Ning Xuan to Desolate Forest City.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
When the nine guardians saw Ning Zheng, they immediately stood up and knelt down again.
"No need for formalities, no need for formalities." Ning Zheng said impatiently and then looked at Liu Chubang.
"Guardian Liu, what happened? Where's the ancestor?"
Liu Chubang's expression was ugly. He glanced into the room and replied in a low voice,"The ancestor is inside."
Ning Zheng looked at the room. The door was tightly shut, and a terrifying aura came from inside, making people shudder.
Ning Zheng took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. Then, he wanted to call out to his ancestor but was stopped by Liu Chubang. Ning Zheng looked at Liu Chubang in confusion.
"Let's wait for everyone to arrive." Liu Chubang said in a low voice.
Then, the group of protectors faced the door again and lowered their heads to kneel on one knee.
When Ning Zheng saw this situation, he did not know what to do for a moment. He looked at the door again, swallowed his saliva, and knelt down as well.
Very soon, members of the imperial family and high-ranking officials arrived one after another. When they saw this scene, they were all stunned. They hurriedly lined up behind Ning Zheng and knelt down, not daring to say a word.
Fifteen minutes later, everyone had arrived. The entire courtyard was filled with people kneeling. Officials below the third rank did not even have the right to enter. They knelt outside.
The Great Yan Empire's Old Ancestor was enraged. This was an extremely serious matter. Moreover, everyone knew that something major must have happened. Otherwise, given the Old Ancestor's character, he would not be so furious.
Everyone was panicking. They were afraid that this time, the matter of the ancestor's anger would be linked to them. At that time, they would really die without a burial place.
"Boom!"
The door suddenly burst open, and Ning Yuanwu's proud figure appeared in front of everyone.
"Greetings, ancestor!"
Everyone kowtowed at the same time, their heads pressed against the ground, not daring to raise their heads.
"Who accompanied Ning Xuan to the Desolate Forest Mountain Range?”Ning Yuanwu's cold voice rang out, and everyone instantly felt their hearts shake.
A single sentence from an Incarnation Realm expert was enough to make everyone tremble.
"It's…it's Guardian Fa Tian and Guardian Min Fa.”Ning Zheng hurriedly replied. He had already guessed what was going on.
The worst thing that Ning Zheng didn't want to see had happened. What he was afraid of really happened.
"Trash! Liu Chubang, why aren't you going?" Ning Yuanwu fiercely looked at Liu Chubang who was kneeling in front of him and shouted sternly.
Liu Chubang's face paled and he spat out a mouthful of blood. At that moment, he could feel the aura of death, and endless fear filled his entire body.
Liu Chubang did not even dare to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth. He hurriedly kowtowed and wailed,"Ancestor, Fa Tianmin was personally appointed by Prince Ning Xuan to follow him. It has nothing to do with me!”
Ning Yuanwu's expression turned cold. With a wave of his hand, Liu Chubang's body flew up and crashed into the fake mountain behind him. The entire fake mountain instantly exploded into countless pieces.
"Are you trying to find an excuse for me?”
"Ancestor, please spare my life!" Liu Chubang struggled to get up with a pained expression, then continued to kneel on the ground, his body trembling.
In front of the world, a powerful expert at the divine-tier was like a dog in front of a Deity Transformation tier. He did not dare to resist at all. Even if he was beaten up, he did not dare to show any dissatisfaction.
"Ning Xuan's life jade slip shattered. He's dead! He died in the Desolate Forest Mountains! The nine of you, bring people to the Desolate Forest Mountains immediately. You have to arrive within a day! Find out who dared to kill a member of the Ning family's royal family! Kill the entire clan! As long as they had connections, not a single one of them would be spared! And that Fa Tianmin, bring his head back! If you can't do it well, you can kill yourselves!”
Ning Yuanwu said coldly to the nine Great Guardians of the Great Yan Empire. Then, he turned around and returned to his room.
"This subordinate will obey!"
The nine guardians hurriedly replied and kowtowed heavily to Ning Yuanwu nine more times. Then, the other eight immediately stood up and quickly walked to the back to help Liu Chubang up.
The nine guardians did not dare to stay for a moment. They waved at the generals and the group quickly left.
When Ning Yuanwu disappeared from everyone's sight, everyone felt as if their entire bodies were about to collapse. They collapsed to the ground, drenched in sweat. Their faces were as pale as paper, and their hearts were palpitating.
