“Yao Tianshi is a school’s master and he’s also its sole inheritor. If he wants to meet our king, I don’t have any problem with it.” The Guard General rolled his eyes. He responded quickly and continued, “However, a certain nobody had demanded to meet our king, and that’s really a laughable matter.”

“Jiang Chen didn’t just get the Invincible God of War title, he’s still a follower of then Martial Sovereign, and the Elixir Association’s Heaven Alchemist. Do you call that a nobody?” Yao Yuntong spoke with displeasure.

“If the Martial Sovereign came here personally, we would surely open our Ice Palace’s gates for him. As for a young Heaven Alchemist, he still doesn’t amount to anything in comparison to our Ice Spirit Clan.” The Guard General was argumentative and quite vile. Moreover, he wore an insufferably arrogant expression, and one couldn’t help but wish to give him a beating. Jiang Chen was certain that this Guard General didn’t get his position on the battlefield. Jiang Chen had gone through many wars, and he knew clearly how a battlefield operated.

“Are you really the Guard General?” Jiang Chen asked earnestly.

“Yes, I am.”

“Well, I almost assumed that you were the Spirit King,” Jiang Chen said while coldly sneering.

“What do you mean by that?” The Guard General shouted.

“A Guard General is in charge of just the royal guards, and, since we have come over from a distant land, your task is limited to reporting this matter, and it will be up to your king to decide whether to meet us or not.” Jiang Chen cast a glance at him and spoke in a clear voice, “Yet, you have just taken a decision by yourself. Your authority is really greater than the king himself.”

“Don’t talk drivel!” Upon hearing such an accusation, fright appeared on the Guard General’s face.

“Don’t tell me that this isn’t true?” Jiang Chen shrugged his shoulders and spoke with a smile.

The Guard General snorted. He was in the wrong and didn’t know what to say. He wasn’t willing to give up and could only say, “I will just let you go for the sake of School Master Yao. Go inside!”

They weren’t allowed to use the flying ship to proceed to the Ice Palace and had to follow the royal guards. As they were shown the way, they quickly got to see the Ice Palace. The Ice Spirit Clan’s greatest and most majestic city appeared before their eyes, and it was filled with ice sculptures. Most houses were made from Mysterious Ice that wouldn’t melt easily. As they walked around the city and observed the Ice Spirit Clan’s world, they felt like they were in a dreamland. Nothing felt true and real.

The appearance of three outsiders caught the attention of the Ice Spirits, and they managed to quickly recognize them. However, even after they learned that they were influential people, they didn’t have any intense reaction. They were just discussing whether Jiang Chen had come for a marriage proposal like the rumors had said. They managed to quickly reach the royal palace. After they passed through a tall, lofty gate, they were led into a great palace.

“Wait here,” the Guard General said resentfully.

Jiang Chen noticed that another group was outside the great palace, and they were from the Blood Shadow Dynasty. When they saw Jiang Chen, they all got ferocious looks on their faces. It wasn’t just because Jiang Chen had killed their spiritual son in the Title Battle, it was also because Yao Tianshi had barged into the imperial palace’s restricted area in the past and run amok there. Such an affair was a humiliation to the whole Blood Shadow Dynasty!

“Jiang Chen!” Someone among the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s team recognized Jiang Chen. It was the arrogant sacred prince who was close to the Doctrine Palace. He had been hunted down by the Nether World School for 1 million miles, and it was only by fleeing back to the dynasty that he had managed to survive. He was 14 or 15 years old and was outstandingly handsome. He had a beautiful face that even women would envy. However, he was now looking at Jiang Chen with a resentful gaze as if he had suffered the Nether World School’s hunt just because of Jiang Chen.

“Isn’t this the sacred prince? You dare to leave your home?” Jiang Chen said, poking the sacred prince’s sore spot. The sacred prince was so infuriated that his expression became twisted. He said arrogantly, “If I had participated in the Title Battle, you wouldn’t have managed to get the Invincible God of War title.”

“That’s right, if you had been born several years earlier, you would be unrivaled in the whole world,” Jiang Chen said.

He,he! Upon hearing such sarcastic words, Yao Yuntong couldn’t help but laugh.

“I want to fight you, do you dare to accept it?” The sacred prince shouted angrily.

“Sacred prince, don’t be rash!” A man among the Blood Shadow Dynasty’s group came over to him and spoke. He had a fair face without any facial hair and also a tall stature. He had a bald head, a square face, and regular features.

“You shouldn’t harm your precious body because of some lowly people,” he said.

“Hey! Who are you talking about?” Yao Yuntong spoke angrily.

“I’m obviously talking about the lowly people here,” the man said with a smile. He didn’t bother with Yao Yuntong and looked at the Guard General. He said, “Guard General, why did you let such people come here?”

The Guard General smiled apologetically, “Some people pestered me, and I didn’t have any choice.”

It turned out that the Guard General had caused trouble for them on purpose because he was instructed to by the Blood Shadow Dynasty.

Yao Yuntong was infuriated upon discovering this. Jiang Chen went to her side and whispered something to her.

“Well, well, it turns out that he’s a eunuch. I was just wondering why his voice was so eccentric.” As Yao Yuntong spoke, she imitated the eunuch and smiled.

The bald man stopped smiling and his shoulders shivered, while a vicious look appeared in his eyes.

“If you take another look at my daughter, I will scoop out your eyes,” Yao Tianshi said coldly.

The bald man was startled, and it seemed as if he had recalled the divine might Yao Tianshi displayed when Yao Tianshi ran amok in the restricted area, and he shut his mouth.

“Hey, I’m just wondering whether you really came here to raise a marriage proposal?” It seemed like the sacred prince had recalled something. He seemed quite interested in this matter!

Jiang Chen didn’t feel like replying, but his silence confirmed the sacred prince’s guess.

“Ha ,ha, ha, it’s really interesting. I wonder whether another ice sculpture will appear today,” the sacred prince laughed heartily.

Jiang Chen didn’t understand what he meant, and it was only after Yao Yuntong explained it to him that he understood.

It turned out that situations similar to Jiang Chen’s had appeared many times before. There were spiritual ladies hiding from the Seedling Extermination Operation who had made marriage pledges with Three Lower Realms people in private, and, even after the spiritual ladies were taken back home, some infatuated men had run over to the Ice Spirit Clan to ask for their hands.

The Ice Spirit Clan’s response was usually just turning these ignorant people into ice sculptures and placing them on the road as a warning to others.

“Hey, isn’t your lineup for a marriage proposal too miserable? People unaware of your aims may even assume that you have come to beg for food,” the sacred prince said.

Jiang Chen whose group had just three people couldn’t rival the sacred prince’s great team. Jiang Chen still didn’t reply because it was obvious that this guy was trying to infuriate him. As long as he didn’t pay attention to him, he would thwart him.

When the sacred prince witnessed that Jiang Chen just took a look at him and didn’t react at all, his expression became quite unsightly. However, it was at this moment that the great palace’s gate was opened from inside.

The Ice Spirit Clan’s saint walked out and said, “Sirs, please come inside.”

“Why should they go inside with us? They have come later than we did.” The sacred prince spoke in displeasure. “Did the Ice Spirit Clan assume by mistake that we have come together?”

“That’s right, it’s the first arrived who must go inside first. We have already waited here for a long time. So why are they allowed to go inside along with us?” The bald man said.

The Ice Spirit Clan’s saint said, “That’s my royal father’s order. However, since you have an objection, I will go ask for instructions from him.” After she spoke, she turned around and to reenter the palace.

“Just forget about it, let’s enter together. We really have bad luck.” The sacred prince waved his hand and proceeded forward resentfully.

Jiang Chen looked at the palace’s opened gate, and he strode into it after he hesitated for a while. When he passed by the saint, they nodded at each other.

You shouldn’t have come here. When the Ice Spirit Clan’s saint witnessed him going into the palace, she muttered to herself.
