Condemning the Heavens

Chapter 407: 407

Xue Wei’s face darkened . "Did you accept the edict?" he asked, his voice dangerously low .

"We did not, but they plasted it on our door where it has been since then," Lin Xiao said with a sigh .

"And the Emperor has said nothing?" Xue Wei was full of anger now . He had sacrificed blood to create so many mutated beasts for them, and the thanks he was getting was his little sister forced into marriage?

"I don’t think he is aware of it," Hei Gou answered . "No one has seen the Emperor since you returned home . "

"Let us go and find them," Xue Wei said, dragging all his friends with him out of the courtyard, only to find that there was a group of royal guards stationed outside .

"The Empress has ordered that no one is to leave the courtyard before the wedding," one of the guards said, his face full of menace .

"Either we leave, or you bring the Emperor here right at this moment," Xue Wei said, but all he was answered was a laughter from the royal guard .

"Who do you think you are, summoning the Emperor as you wish? Now return to the . . . "

He did not manage to say another word before his head was severed from his neck, and his body limply fell to the ground .

Everyone was shocked as they looked at Xue Wei, even his friends . Xue Wei had been fairly well behaved since he arrived at the Demon Phoenix Continent, but now he was suddenly killing a royal guard so quickly . It was the same as slapping their faces .

The other Royal Guards were also shocked, but they quickly regained their senses and plunged at Xue Wei .

"How dare you!" they exclaimed in anger, and their hands brandished the sabers at their waist .

Xue Wei was completely without a care for these Royal Guards; his mood was turbulent, and his anger unstoppable .

His friends, who had been taken by surprise, finally reacted . Their bodies flashed, and smiles erupted on their faces . They had been suppressed for far too long, and now it was necessary for them to let go of all their frustrations .

Lin Xiao was using his staff to attack, while Hei Gou was using his claws . Bai Tianyi was using the spiritual energy swords, while Luoluo was using her physical body, enhanced with spiritual energy . Xue Wei was using his body, his Qi, and his spiritual energy at the same time, attacking and killing one guard after another .

More and more guards came rushing towards them, but the more that came, the more he killed .

Blood was flowing like rivers on the ground, more and more guards succumbed to their death as Xue Wei went on a rampage . He was angry, but he was not blinded by anger; his actions had another reason behind them .

All the experts that had arrived were at most Ordinary Saints, Xue Wei and his friends quickly slaughtered all of them, and soon the ruckus drew others to pay attention to the small courtyard .

Many officials were shocked and scared as they saw the ongoing massacre; the younger generation also drawn to the fight, scared from seeing the ruthlessness of Xue Wei .

Soon a high ranking General appeared, and when they saw his face, all the Royal Guards seemed as if they had been given a second chance of life .

"General Lin Xuan! Please punish these heinous criminals who are wantonly murdering in the royal palace!"

"Are you going to get involved?" Xue Wei asked with a cold gleam in his eyes as he looked at Lin Xuan .

The battle slowly stilled, and while Xue Wei and his friends had stopped killing, the others dared not advance .

"Good Sir, what mistake has these Royal Guards made?" Lin Xuan was aware that the identity of Xue Wei was unique, and even more so when he realized how polite the Retired Emperor, the Current Emperor, and the Grand Elder were towards him . He dared not touch this young man .

"Mistake? They want to force my companion into marrying the First Prince, not to mention refusing to let us leave our courtyard . I asked them to get the Emperor and hear if this is how the Demon Phoenix Continent repays their gratitude, but they just laughed at me and tried forcing us into the courtyard again!"

Xue Wei was angry, and his voice was loud, his words causing everyone to be stunned . This man had done something that caused him to become a benefactor of the Demon Phoenix Continent?

The Royal Guards were not worried; they thought that Lin Xuan was definitely on their side, so they scoffed . "It is your companion’s great honor that our First Prince has taken a liking to her and wants to marry her . It is an honor that the Empress personally sent an edict to make this happen, who do you foreigners think you are?"

The more he heard, the darker the face of Lin Xuan became . "Is the Emperor aware of this?" he suddenly asked .

"Why would his royal highness need to be made aware of such small matters?" the Royal Guard asked puzzled, but his words made it clear that this decision had been made by the Empress alone .

"Someone go invite the Emperor, tell him that the Empress has made a grave mistake and insulted someone that should not be insulted!"

Lin Xuan gave the order, and the Royal Guards finally realized that things were not as they had expected .

They all started trembling as two unfortunate individuals went to invite the Emperor .

When he heard their words, he was slightly stunned, but he said nothing just followed the guards .

It was not until he saw the hostile eyes of Xue Wei that he realized who it was that the Empress had insulted, and his heart suddenly quivered .
