Chapter 928 - 931: National Defense Array

Miaoshan, Master Li the Fortune Teller, and Daji, as people living on the continent, are quite familiar with it.

Daji, also known as Su Miaoyun, knows what Huangfu represents at the coastal edge of the continent, which is one of the three major forces, the Celestial Dynasty.

And Master Li the Fortune Teller, along with Miaoshan, who wanders everywhere, has also heard of the Celestial Dynasty, the storyteller’s Underground City, and the Human Daoist Sect,

which dominate the Edge Lands. They can genuinely be called the local rulers.

However, Wu Tian still said, "No."

As soon as he said that, the young man was taken aback and, thinking of something, cupped his hands and asked, "What is this gentleman’s name?"

"Wu Tian."

"Oh....." The young man thought of something, as there were quite a few forces at the edge discussing how capable Wu Tian was, able to preach. He immediately introduced himself: "You indeed have the qualification to speak with me. I am Huangfu Hu, the Second Prince of the current Celestial Dynasty."

Wu Tian nodded indifferently, ignoring him,

The cold attitude of Wu Tian nearly knit Huangfu Hu’s brows into a rope. He puzzledly asked, "Prince Wu Tian, haven’t you heard of the Celestial Dynasty? No way, right? How about I introduce it to you?"

In his opinion, Wu Tian gave him no face because he might have just arrived on the continent?

After telling him about the greatness of the Celestial Dynasty,

didn’t Wu Tian know what to do?

"No need." Wu Tian waved his hand. He knew what the Celestial Dynasty was and didn’t need Huangfu Hu to introduce it further.

"But I think you certainly don’t know, for if you did, why such an attitude? Or someone may have told you about the Celestial Dynasty, but you weren’t attentive, or the person who introduced you to our Celestial Dynasty was very jealous. Thus, you were told it’s a trivial power. Otherwise, why would you have such an attitude?"

Gently smoothing his sleeve, Huangfu Hu wished to tell Wu Tian about the situation in the Celestial Dynasty, with a tone of concern, as if not knowing what the Celestial Dynasty was, seemed so pitiful.

Meanwhile, he wasn’t merely speaking to Wu Tian.

He also wanted Miaoshan, Daji, and Qin Yuhan present to know how formidable he, as the Second Prince of the Celestial Dynasty, was.

"I said, no need." Wu Tian’s voice turned a bit cold. He knew about the Celestial Dynasty and didn’t want to listen anymore, as it was becoming annoying.

"Don’t worry; I don’t mind the trouble. I’ll tell you. My Celestial Dynasty is..."

"Boom"

Wu Tian directly punched him, and with a thud, Huangfu Hu fainted.

"Second Prince."

The soldiers rushed forward to check whether the Second Prince was hurt or something,

but saw that the Second Prince, who originally looked fine, now looked terrible.

His eyes were swollen,

making him look like a pig’s face, not a human face,

utterly pathetic.

One of the soldiers looked at Wu Tian with a cold voice: "Our Second Prince kindly introduced our Celestial Dynasty to you. Why did you knock him out?"

"Hehe." Wu Tian chuckled,

The little one in Qin Yuhan’s arms also chirped, "That guy deserved it. We all know the Celestial Dynasty, yet he insisted on talking. We asked him not to, but he was stubborn. Doesn’t someone like that deserve a beating? Is there anyone more asking for it?"

Soldiers: "..."

They also felt that their Second Prince indeed deserved a smacking earlier,

but as subordinates, they dared not say a word.

"What happened here?" Accompanied by a sudden old voice, an elder with a head full of white hair walked over step by step,

He wore a white robe, with seven star symbols particularly dazzling at his chest.

It was the mark of a Seven-Star Array Master,

A Seven-Star Array Master was even beyond Yang Ziwei in Wu Tian’s knowledge,

seemingly famous even at the edge of this continent.

The soldiers, looking at this person, immediately knelt down,

"Greetings, Supreme Emperor."

Supreme Emperor?

Wu Tian and others did not expect the coming Array Master to have such an identity.

"Tell me, what happened?" Huangfu Meimu gently asked,

appearing very kind,

One of the soldiers explained the situation, and after nodding, with an apologetic look, he faced Wu Tian and others: "I’m sorry for intruding. I’m here to capture the Element of Qi, using it as the main material for refining the National Defense Array. This matter is crucial to my dynasty. My second grandson acted so rudely. Please forgive him."

"National Defense Array?" Upon hearing this, Wu Tian furrowed his brows. He knew about Formations and what the National Defense Array was.

The National Defense Array could protect a nation, mainly relying on the Yuan Energy in heaven and earth.

However, few Array Masters refined such a formation, and few kingdoms sought Array Masters for it. The reason was simple,

This National Defense Array protected a nation but also prevented others from getting out, essentially a closed-nation array,

Historically, the National Defense Array gradually became obsolete, especially when Sacrificial Spirits were around. Why bother with a National Defense Array?

Wu Tian was curious about what was happening within the Celestial Dynasty to require such a formation?

Huangfu Meimu didn’t expect Wu Tian to be so sensitive about formations, so he said, "Would you like me to explain the National Defense Array to you?"

"No need."

Wu Tian shook his head,

At this moment, the fainted Huangfu Hu was pinched at the philtrum, gradually waking up.

He heard the last exchange between his grandfather and Wu Tian, and with hatred, he said, "The National Defense Array is very profound. Even if explained, you wouldn’t understand, yet you are aware of your limitations."

He strongly wished to hit Wu Tian, but Wu Tian’s earlier move was so swift that Huangfu Hu had no confidence against him.

Especially with his grandfather present, how could he dare to make a move?

In his mind, only his elder brother Huangfu Qilin could be Wu Tian’s match.

"I don’t understand?" Wu Tian laughed, "So, the Second Prince knows about formations well?"

"It’s confidence." Huangfu Hu’s lips curled into an arrogant smile: "To be honest, I’ve grown up studying my grandfather’s formation books and notes, and I have comprehensive understanding and research on many formations."

"So you are already an Array Master?" The little one knew his old man was joking with the fool and joined in.

"Well... soon, very soon." Huangfu Hu said awkwardly.

"How soon is soon?" the little one persistently asked.

"Three... three to four years, I suppose."

"Oh!" The little fellow appeared disdainful.

Seeing this, Huangfu Hu nearly fainted again out of anger. Seriously, was he looked down on by a little child?

"You people don’t understand formations, don’t understand Array Masters, nor understand how difficult it is to become an Array Master." Huangfu Hu insisted: "If you knew, you’d realize it’s not that I’m stupid; I actually have talent. Otherwise, how could I hope to become an Array Master before thirty?"

"Don’t be ridiculous." Wu Tian didn’t bother arguing further and felt these things are best explained through facts.

Wu Tian smiled slightly: "Besides, those who don’t understand formations are not us, but you."

Wu Tian pointed at Huangfu Hu and others, even including Huangfu Meimu, which made Huangfu Meimu and others, including Dao Feng and others, wonder if Wu Tian made a mistake?
