Chapter 828: Prince Nangong Appears Out of Nowhere

"So strong, the Heir of the Li Family’s strength has already surpassed all the other prodigies. Aside from Imperial Sons and Emperor’s Daughters of the Saint Realm, no one can withstand even a single exchange with him."

"But the Heir of the Li Family is in trouble too. He’s become someone the other prodigies all fear, so they’re joining forces against him."

"I believe Lord Imperial Son will definitely seize the final victory and become a dual-cultivation partner with the Green Lotus Saint!"

As soon as the Heir of the Li Family made a move, he shocked countless people. At this moment Wanliu City was in an uproar, noise surging endlessly.

Nearly four hundred prodigies had come to participate in this martial contest for marriage, and right now most of them had automatically joined together to besiege the Heir of the Li Family. Among them were Imperial Sons from other Immortal Forces; one could imagine how immense the pressure on the Heir of the Li Family was.

Yet the Heir of the Li Family was brimming with confidence, utterly unafraid of any challenge. His entire body was suffused with green light like blazing Yang, teeming with vitality. Nine willow branches, like the hands of gods, swept wherever they pleased, unstoppable.

Boom rumble rumble!

The great battle exploded in an instant. Flames roared, monstrous waves surged to the heavens, Thunder Light flickered, and gales howled. All the prodigies unleashed their full-strength strikes. A vast, sweeping tide of power crashed in from all directions toward the Heir of the Li Family.

The Heir of the Li Family fought hundreds of prodigies alone. The scene was incomparably grand, instantly drawing the attention of countless people.

Meanwhile, in a corner of the different-space battlefield, another battle was about to erupt, likewise attracting a portion of the crowd’s gaze.

Only to see the Dugu Imperial Son and the Meng Po Empress flanking Su Han from left and right, trapping him in the center.

They ignored the Heir of the Li Family and did not compete with the other prodigies. Instead, they locked their sights on Su Han.

"You really do have guts. Unfortunately, you’re just a pitiful worm. If you kneel and beg for mercy now, kowtow to me, perhaps I’ll be magnanimous and spare you once."

The Dugu Imperial Son’s smile was icy, his gaze filled with sinister Demonic Nature that made one’s scalp prickle, as if an Evil Demon had fixed its eyes on them.

The Dugu Imperial Son possessed the strength of the Saint Realm First Layer, and ranked eighteenth on the Hidden Dragon List. His power was evident; even if he could not match the Heir of the Li Family, he still had the qualifications to fight him.

Su Han, meanwhile, though possessing Semi-Saint strength, was playing the role of the Nineteenth Prince. Many of his methods could not be used openly before the crowd, and coupled with the Realm gap, he was Innately at a disadvantage.

What’s more, this time Su Han was facing not only the Dugu Imperial Son, but also the Meng Po Empress.

"Nineteenth Prince, you should be thankful for Emperor Liu’s three conditions, or next year on this day would be your death anniversary. Though we can’t kill you, I have plenty of ways to make you wish for life but find no life, wish for death but find no death!"

The Meng Po Empress stretched out a hand and grasped, a powder-gold sacred flower blooming in her palm as her body radiated light. The Wangchuan Sacred Body was activated, a strange Aura flowing in the surroundings.

The Dugu Imperial Son and Meng Po Empress joining forces was enough that even the Heir of the Li Family would have to treat them cautiously, let alone Su Han. Yet Su Han’s expression was calm, without the slightest trace of fear.

With me, invincible!

Fight against the heavens!

The Invincible Tao Xin and Defying Heavenly Demon Will set Su Han’s battle intent ablaze, fearless of all danger.

"Two against one—aren’t you being a bit too shameless?"

Just as Su Han was about to make a move, a strange voice suddenly rang out, drawing the attention of all three.

Su Han followed the sound and looked over, only to see a burly figure rapidly approaching.

It was a burly youth with a square, rugged face, about twenty-four or twenty-five, his axe-hewn features full of steely resolve.

He wore black battle armor and gripped a thick copper staff in his hand. His gaze was soul-seizing, like a humanoid ferocious beast about to devour people, sending chills down spines.

"Hundred Beasts Battle Body!"

Su Han’s eyes narrowed as he recognized the burly youth’s Special Physique. This Special Physique possessed extremely terrifying Combat Power, said to be able to transform the body into a hundred beasts and slaughter all foes.

Not only that, this burly youth’s strength was also formidable, exuding savage Holy Might. He was actually a Saint Realm First Layer powerhouse—quite extraordinary.

However, Su Han did not know this person. But judging from his earlier words, he seemed to be standing on Su Han’s side. What was going on?

"Prince Nangong, you want to help him?"

The Dugu Imperial Son stared coldly at the burly youth, his gaze hostile yet tinged with wariness.

Prince Nangong!

Su Han was taken aback, finally understanding why this burly youth was helping him.

The Nangong Imperial Clan, once one of the pinnacle Immortal Forces, had been smashed to pieces by King Yama’s Palace a hundred years ago, nearly exterminated.

This clan’s hatred for King Yama’s Palace ran unimaginably deep, a vendetta of "never rest till one side dies." And this burly youth before them was actually the current generation’s Imperial Son of the Nangong Imperial Clan. The reason he was helping Su Han was very likely the Meng Po Empress.

"I want to do something—since when do I need your permission?"

Prince Nangong radiated a savage Aura, his temper straightforward. He shot back without ceremony.

His gaze swept coldly over the Meng Po Empress, but he did not say more. Instead, he turned to Su Han.

"Nineteenth Prince, I’ve heard about what you did. Well done. From now on, you’re my friend!"

Su Han had triggered a war between the Heavenly Sword Dynasty and King Yama’s Palace, not only eradicating nine strongholds, but also slaying one Director, three great Yin Marshals, and one Equal King. Even King Chu Jiang was heavily injured as a result. It could be said he had dealt a heavy blow to King Yama’s Palace.

For Prince Nangong, the enemy of his enemy was his friend, so he had taken the initiative to appear and lend Su Han his strength.

This truly was an unexpected pleasant surprise. Looking at Prince Nangong, Su Han felt a hint of joy; he had not expected that, in such a situation, someone would still be willing to help him.

"I’ll hold off the Dugu Imperial Son. You give that Meng Po Empress a ruthless beating for me!"

Prince Nangong wasted no words. With a single step, his Holy Might surged violently as it pressed straight toward the Dugu Imperial Son.

Boom!

His Domain unfolded, filled with overlapping beast shadows, as if one had stepped into the Myriad Demon Nation.

"Take my staff!"

Prince Nangong struck first. The copper staff in his hand was a Superior Grade Holy Artifact, heavy as a mountain and indestructible. This swing collapsed the very space, like a massive mountain range crashing down, carrying endless power as it smashed toward the Dugu Imperial Son.

"Hmph, you’re courting death!"

The Dugu Imperial Son snorted coldly, hating Prince Nangong to the bone. If not for Prince Nangong, he and the Meng Po Empress could have easily defeated Su Han, but now an unforeseen change had occurred.

Rumble rumble rumble!

The Dugu Imperial Son and Prince Nangong clashed at once. Both were at the Saint Realm First Layer, and both were Imperial Sons of Immortal Forces. Although Prince Nangong ranked twentieth on the Hidden Dragon List, two places lower than the Dugu Imperial Son, it was no problem at all for him to keep the latter occupied.

Prince Nangong’s arrival gave Su Han tremendous support. Now he no longer needed to worry about the Dugu Imperial Son, and only had to deal with the Meng Po Empress.

"Are you ready to face death?"

Su Han reached out and grasped the Soul Severing Sword, then took a step forward, actively charging toward the Meng Po Empress.

The battle erupted in an instant!
