Chapter 4399 Chaos arises
After hearing what Su Bai and Ming Cheng said, Ming Ya was surprised and asked, "That's Prince Huaiyang and his army. Is he going to attack the imperial city?"
Su Bai nodded lightly, "It's obvious."
The strongest person in the Hongwu Dynasty was a Saint who had reached the state of Great Perfection, and his life was nearing the end.
This Prince of Huaiyang probably just broke through to this realm recently, and now he has enough confidence to attack the imperial city.
But no direct action has been taken yet, and the two sides are obviously still in the confrontation stage.
Su Bai waved his sleeves and took Mingya and Mingcheng into the imperial city. It was obvious that the imperial city's formation could not stop him.
After entering the imperial city, the atmosphere in the entire city was quite depressing.
The imperial city must have not been in war for at least hundreds of millions of years, and now that the army is outside the city, how can the people in the city not panic?
It was the Imperial City Guards who were constantly calming the emotions of the city's residents.
Su Bai took the brother and sister straight into the palace.
At this moment, in the palace, a group of royal family members gathered together to discuss how to deal with the army outside the city.
The emperor sat on the dragon throne without saying a word, but the people below were already arguing in chaos.
"How should we deal with Prince Huaiyang and his Huaiyang Army? No one could have imagined that his Huaiyang Army would become so powerful! Prince Huaiyang has also reached the Great Perfection of Saint Venerable. Even if we can win by taking advantage of defending the city, I'm afraid we will have to pay a very painful price!"
"Since Prince Huaiyang dares to attack us, I'm afraid he's quite confident. He's bound to make some big noise before he gives up!"
"Prince Huaiyang is so angry because of his son. During the Hongwu court meeting, Qi Ao died at the hands of his son-in-law. This time, Prince Huaiyang also said that if you hand over his son-in-law, he will withdraw his troops!"
I don't know who said this suddenly. The Hongwu Emperor on the dragon throne immediately raised his head, his eyes a little gloomy, but he said nothing.
King Luosha said, "If this happened before the Prince Consort and the Princess got married, it would be fine. But now that they're married, how can we just hand over the Prince Consort like this?"
But someone quickly countered, "But the Prince of Huaiyang isn't going to kill the Prince Consort himself. He just wants him to fight Luo Qingzong. There's no guarantee that the Prince Consort will lose, right?"
Hearing this, the expressions of everyone present changed.
Luo Qingzong is a young man brought by King Huaiyang this time. He is not from the Hongwu Dynasty, but he is quite famous in the entire Pilu Continent.
There is no other reason, it’s just that this person is the thirteenth disciple of the Lord of Order of Vairocana!
Moreover, his cultivation is at the supreme level.
Being able to reach the supreme realm and become a disciple of the Lord of Order shows how valuable it is!
Moreover, Luo Qingzong's talent is indeed terrifyingly high. It is said that he once fought with the Holy Lord. Although he did not win, he managed to hold on for ten moves.
Such a record is unique in the supreme realm!
In the eyes of everyone, although the prince consort has good talent and cultivation, he cannot compare with Luo Qingzong.
When he heard the three words Luo Qingzong, Emperor Hongwu frowned even deeper!
What he cared about was not Luo Qingzong himself. After all, no matter how talented Luo Qingzong was, he was just a small supreme being at the moment!
What he cares about is what Luo Qingzong represents.
Luo Qingzong is the thirteenth disciple of the Lord of Order. Why would he act for King Huaiyang?
Does this mean that what Prince Huaiyang did today has been tacitly approved by the Lord of Order?
Although the Lord of Order will not interfere in the separatist disputes within the continent under his jurisdiction, his attitude still has very important significance.
The Hongwu Dynasty had relatively good relations with several neighboring dynasties.
If Prince Huaiyang insisted on rebelling, Emperor Hongwu could seek help from neighboring dynasties by simply giving them some benefits.
But with Luo Qingzong's presence, the other dynasties would not choose to offer assistance due to the influence of the God of Order.
This is what gives him the most headache!
The ninth princess Lingwei was also in the palace. She was very displeased when she heard these noises.
"Where is your backbone? Just because Prince Huaiyang's army is approaching, have you lost even the most basic backbone?" Ling Wei couldn't help but scold.
Upon hearing this, the Imperial Master immediately said, "Little Princess, now is not the time to be concerned with romantic relationships. The Hongwu Dynasty has been stable for so long. If war breaks out, many people will die!"
Ling Wei was dissatisfied and said, "So you will just keep putting up with Prince Huaiyang? If you back down once, Prince Huaiyang's appetite will never be satisfied."
"Our Hongwu Dynasty has survived for such a long time, and we've overcome all difficulties. Why should we compromise with the Prince of Huaiyang?"
It has to be said that Ling Wei's words really touched the hearts of several people present.
Emperor Hongwu said, "We really can't compromise with Prince Huaiyang so easily. Let's see what he wants to do first."
The Imperial Master sighed softly, "Well, anyway, we don't know where our Prince Consort has gone. Maybe he found out about the situation in advance and went into hiding. Who knows?"
"You!" Ling Wei was furious.
"I'm sorry, Imperial Master, I'm not as spineless as you." Mingcheng's voice rang out in the hall, and he also walked slowly from outside the hall.
As soon as Su Bai and the two of them arrived at the palace, they watched a show.
At this moment, he and Mingya were hiding in nothingness, and Su Bai had no intention of showing up.
As soon as Mingcheng appeared, everyone's eyes turned to him.
Lingwei was also delighted and quickly ran to Mingcheng's side.
Mingcheng clasped his fists and saluted the Hongwu Emperor, saying, "Father, since I am now a member of the Hongwu Dynasty, I naturally have to share the worries of the Hongwu Dynasty. I am willing to accept the challenge."
The Hongwu Emperor hesitated and asked, "Do you really want to fight Luo Qingzong?"
"You know, the declaration of war issued by Luo Qingzong is a life-or-death challenge. Although it doesn't necessarily mean life or death, if he kills you in the arena, no one can say anything."
What Emperor Hongwu said naturally had a deeper meaning.
In his opinion, Mingcheng would most likely not be a match for Luo Qingzong. Once he was killed in the ring, no one would be able to stand up for him.
Therefore, in the eyes of Emperor Hongwu, if the person behind Mingcheng, that is, Su Bai, could come forward, that would be the best outcome.
Because Emperor Hongwu knew very well that Su Bai must have reached the level of a saint!
If a true saint comes forward, I think the Lord of Order will give him face!
Before Mingcheng came out, Su Bai asked for his opinion.
Would he rather Su Bai help him settle the matter, or would he do it himself?
Mingcheng's answer did not disappoint Su Bai.
Ming Cheng said: "This matter was caused by me, so naturally I should solve it. A cultivator should have an unyielding heart. I am the Supreme, and Luo Qingzong is also the Supreme. I may not be his opponent!"
