Chapter 97: North Peace Marquis Residence

“Have you heard? Just half an hour ago, something big happened at the city gate.”
“What big matter? What else is there in Sky Dragon City? Who dares to cause trouble in Sky Dragon City? Isn’t that courting death?”
” A beast carriage barged into the city and killed a Tier Nine Warrior Spirit. The twenty or so Martial Kings from the Yang family were killed by a glacier that spanned tens of thousands of meters. All the Martial Kings were turned into pieces by the glacier. Yang Haozong, who was a peak Tier Nine Martial King, was also killed by Changyang Tian with a single punch.”
“That’s impossible, right? He’s that powerful? Unless he’s a Martial Emperor or a Martial Grandmaster.”
“Yang Haozong’s Flaming Gold Changyang Heaven is known for its invincible defense. Even Wu Zongs might not be able to break through it.”
” What a secret. The person inside this beast carriage is Li Lingtian from the Northern Marquis Residence.”
“Isn’t Li Lingtian from the Northern Marquis Residence just a young man? How could he kill a Martial King? Moreover, the Yang family’s power is like the sun at its zenith, how would the North Peace Marquis ‘fu dare to oppose the Yang family?”
” 1 remember now. Some time ago, I heard that Sky Cloud Sect produced a heaven-defying monster. Could it be this Li Lingtian? ”
“If that’s the case, the Yang Family and the North Peace Marquis will have a good show to watch.”
Zheng Lin drove the beast carriage into the city. He could not calm down at all. There was only a Warrior Spirit youth in the beast carriage. However, everything that he saw just now had completely exceeded his imagination.
He had seen a battle between Martial Kings and Martial Grandmasters before, but none of them were as domineering as the youth in the beast carriage. They were all killed in one strike.
Was he really a Warrior Spirit? Was he really just a teenager?
This youth was the heir of the North Peace Marquis Estate. He didn’t expect the North Peace Marquis Estate to be so low-profile, to have such a heaven-defying genius and still be so patient.
Very soon, he calmed down. Since he was following this prince, the stronger he was, the more secure he would be in the future. The master was strong, and the servant was also superior to others.
Li Lingtian was resting in the beast carriage with his eyes closed. The incident earlier was just a small interlude.
In this world, the strong were respected. As long as one had enough strength, their fists were the reason. If one’s strength was not enough, today would be the day of his death. Life and death depended on the depth of one’s strength.
He had not returned for a few years, and there was no news of him. In the past, the Northern Marquis’s residence was so glorious, but he had never thought that it would be suppressed to such a state.
He would not let go of what he had to shoulder. Since he came to the North Peace Marquis Estate, he was destined to turn Sky Dragon City upside down unless he died.
What he had to do now was to quickly increase his cultivation and face all kinds of powerful challenges.
North Peace Marquis Fu
The Northern Marquis’s estate was located in the northern city, and the entire estate occupied a radius of several miles. To be able to have such a large estate in a place like the capital where every inch of land was worth every inch of gold, one could only imagine how extraordinary the status of the Marquis’s estate was in the past.
Emperor Tian Long of the Northern Marquis Residence bestowed the title to Li Lingtian’s grandfather, Li Chongyang. Li Lingtian’s father, Li Suifeng, had even inherited the title of Northern Marquis due to his outstanding military achievements.
In these few years, the Yang family had been very powerful and had been suppressing dissidents, and the Pingbei Marquis Residence was the one that suppressed them the most.
The current Pingbei Marquis’s Estate was not even comparable to a second-grade official of the Imperial Court. Although it was still the Pingbei Marquis ‘Estate and Pingbei Marquis, it did not have the slightest bit of power. On this day, Li Suifeng and his wife, Qin Susu, were resting in a pavilion in the courtyard. A few servants were waiting outside the pavilion.
“I wonder how Tian ‘er is doing. Susu misses Tian’ er.”
Qin Susu was about 30 years old, but she looked like she was only 21 or 22 years old. One should know that Qin Susu was a rare beauty in Sky Dragon City.
Even though she was thirty years old now, she was no different from a twenty-one or twenty-two-year-old girl.
Now that his son had left the Marquisdom for eight years, he had only seen him a few times along the way. In these three years, he had not seen him once.
Mother and son’s hearts were connected. Even though Pingbei Marquis fu was suppressed, she only cared about her husband and son.
“In Sky Cloud Sect, other than the Yang family, no one else would dare to touch him. It’s just that I can’t enter Sky Cloud Sect, or else 1 can also look up to Tian ‘er.”
Li Suifeng’s face was filled with a trace of desolation. The dignified Marquis of North Peace, who guarded the important place of the Sky Dragon Empire’s military, the Thunderclap City, was thrown back by an imperial edict, and the Thunderclap City fell into the hands of the Yang family.
He had been in the army all his life, but now he could only stay idle in the residence. It was more uncomfortable than killing him.
Sky Dragon Empire and the four major sects had a rule that all the princes of Sky Dragon City had to enter the sect to cultivate. The sect was not allowed to interfere with the affairs of the imperial court, and the imperial court’s officials were not allowed to enter the sect.
As a result, many princes and heirs would not be able to see their relatives for years. It was no wonder that Qin Susu missed her son.
” Suifeng, the Sky Dragon Empire’s once-in-a-decade genius competition should be starting soon. When the time comes, write a letter and ask Sky Cloud Sect to bring Tian ‘er over.”
Qin Susu remembered that Sky Cloud Sect would be participating in the Sky Dragon Empire Genius Competition. She could use her connections to bring the letter to her son.
“Alright, I will pass on this matter. The Yang family is getting more and more arrogant. I will try my best not to participate in this competition.”
Li Suifeng was worried that the Yang family’s disciples would deal with Li Lingtian in Sky Cloud Sect. However, he did not dare to say it out loud as it would only make his wife more worried.
“Lord Marquis, Lord Marquis.”
At this moment, a servant ran in with a surprised expression on his face. He was out of breath from running.
“What’s the matter? Why are you so flustered?”
Li Suifeng saw that the Head Chief of the Marquisdom, Li Cheng Yuan, had lost his composure, and a trace of unhappiness flashed across his face.
Li Cheng Yuan was known for his calmness. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been promoted to the chief steward of the marquis ‘mansion. This Li Cheng Yuan had been in the marquis’ mansion for several generations and was loyal.
“This subordinate greets Lord Marquis and Madam.”
“Young Master is back.”
Li Cheng Yuan calmed down for a moment and said excitedly. He was just doing some work outside when he saw a beast carriage coming to the entrance of the Marquis’s mansion. A white-robed youth walked out from inside and was stunned.
How could he not recognize the young man in white? He was the young master that the Marquis and Madam missed. He had been in the Marquis ‘Residence since he was young and watched Li Lingtian grow up. Now that the young master had grown up and returned, how could he not be excited?
In the past few years, the young master of the marquis ‘mansion had become even more elegant. He looked exactly like his wife, Qin Susu. He had lost a part of his daughter’s coquettishness and gained a part of his man’s sunshine.
After greeting Li Lingtian, he jogged to the pavilion in the courtyard to report the good news to the Marquis ‘wife. If the Marquis and his wife were to learn of this news, they would definitely be overjoyed.
“Tian ‘er is back?”
“Tian ‘er is back!”
“Father, Young Master has really returned.”
The three voices sounded at the same time. Li Suifeng and Qin Susu were pleasantly surprised. The other person was the only servant in the pavilion. She was very beautiful.
This was Li Lingtian’s former handmaiden, Li Xiaoxiao. The two of them spent the most time together and had the best relationship. However, they did not meet again after Li Lingtian went to Sky Cloud Sect.
Without needing Li Cheng Yuan to answer, everyone had already gotten the answer. On the bluestone path in the courtyard, a young man in white walked over at a moderate speed.
His entire body and the surrounding flowers and trees formed a landscape, elegant and graceful..
