Chapter 1828: Let’s Enjoy the Fireworks

Luo Qiongcang was too embarrassed to look at Chen Xiaobei directly in the eyes.

He had wrongly accused him of working with the enemy and even made it his mission to kill the young man.

Even then, Chen Xiaobei was merciful towards Luo Qiongcang.

The discrepancy between facts that were presented to him and his experience with Chen Xiaobei made him realize how wrong he had been. Before the watchful eyes of his people, the emperor apologized to Chen Xiaobei and admitted his fault even though it was taboo for an emperor to acknowledge his mistake in public.

This showed that Luo Qiongcang now saw Chen Xiaobei in a whole new light!

The people of Saint Duke appeared to be shocked and delighted at all of this.

Shocked because Chen Xiaobei’s Three-Star Earth-God grade black saber was beyond whatever the Nine Zones could comprehend!

Delighted, because Chen Xiaobei was not the Tenshou spy they thought he was!

He had not come to bring destruction to Saint Duke but to marry Luo Puti, the woman that he truly loved!

They understood that having this powerful elite as their fuma would greatly benefit their starfield! He might even save them from destruction!

All of a sudden, the Tenshou mole had become Saint Duke’s deliverer!

The royalties and officials were suddenly swept away with awe and reverence for him.

The eyes that had looked upon Chen Xiaobei with hatred and animosity were substituted by respect, honor and even adoration!

This was a world where the strongest ruled, where people only worshipped the powerful!

To have such a godlike elite on their side made them feel extremely privileged!

…

At that instant, everyone’s attitude, including the emperor’s, had taken a 180-degree turn towards Chen Xiaobei!

That was the power of truth!

With all the facts laid out before them, all of the hearsay, slander, and misunderstanding were washed away like a shack after a storm.

Nonetheless, there was one person who saw differently. “Luo Qiongcang! You better think carefully!” Helian Tulong shouted in anger, the blood in his mouth sputtering out. “My family has Three-Star Earth-God Instruments too! And we don’t just have one! If you don’t kill Chen Zhufeng, I will destroy Saint Duke!”

Chen Xiaobei waved the black saber at him. “You really are tired of living, aren’t you? How are you going to destroy Saint Duke when you’re dead?”

“I don’t want my life!” Helian Tulong’s spat. “I’m a useless handicap without my cultivation! I’m more than happy to get rid of this worthless life, but I must have and the entire Saint Duke buried with me!”

Murmurs of alarm rippled through the crowd.

But Chen Xiaobei was phlegmatic. “Alright. Then why don’t you give it a try. Let’s see if the Helian family or Saint Duke is destroyed first!”

“Pretentious!” Helian Tulong growled. “Saint Duke can’t even cope with the Tenshou-Royal Dome joint-attack! When my family comes for you, Saint Duke will wither! Saint Duke will cease to exist!”

The emperor turned to Chen Xiaobei and pleaded. “Childe Chen! Helian Tulong has a point… You cannot kill him… His family will attack us…”

“Yeah!” The royalties and officials cried in desperation. “Childe Chen! We cannot harm Helian Tulong! If his family seeks revenge, Saint Duke will be laid to waste! All of our people will die!”

Luo Puti implored in a quiet voice, “Xiaobei, it seems that you’re unaware that Tenshou and Royal Dome might attack at any time. We don’t have the strength to fight them, much less the Helians!”

Suddenly, everyone was advising Chen Xiaobei against killing Helian Tulong.

The danger that Saint Duke faced was very real.

When Helian Tulong saw that the people of Saint Duke were petitioning for his life, he was emboldened. “Chen Zhufeng! I don’t want to live anymore! What are you still doing over there? Come on and kill me! Come! Don’t make me look down on you!”

Chen Xiaobei merely shrugged at everyone. “I have a sudden change of mind! I won’t kill Helian Tulong today! It’s not that I’m afraid, but because I want all of you” — He looked at the enemy squarely — “to witness something else!”

“Wit… ness what?” Helian Tulong suddenly felt uneasy.

Could there be something worse than death in this world?

Chen Xiaobei ignored him and addressed the emperor. “Uncle Luo, can you bring all the core members of Saint Duke out here. Let’s go elsewhere!”

“Go elsewhere?” Luo Qiongcang looked perplexed. “Where? To do what?”

“Today is a day of happiness – the day I propose to Puti! A Frozen Heart Spiritual Ring is not enough to express my sincerity! A bigger and better gift is yet to come!”

“What? There’s more?” The people exclaimed.

Chen Xiaobei had already gifted them with a Two-star Earth-God instrument! That was already an invaluable gift in itself!

Even Luo Puti was flummoxed to hear that Chen Xiaobei had a bigger and better surprise in store!

Helian Tulong was just as mystified. Did Chen Xiaobei spare his life so that he could witness this considerable gift?

No one could figure out what Chen Xiaobei had prepared for them but they all knew that whatever it was, it was something that was going to blow their minds!

“Wait here, Childe Chen…” Luo Qiongcang stepped out for a moment and brought all the Wangye, princes, the army general, the prime minister, and a few important officials to Chen Xiaobei.

These were Saint Duke’s highest-level leaders!

The news of Chen Xiaobei inviting them to witness his gift was going to be a topic of discussion in every corner of Saint Duke – which would essentially mean that the hundreds of millions of Saint Duke citizens would ‘see’ Chen Xiaobei’s gift as well!

“Someone please escort that useless dog Helian Tulong!” Chen Xiaobei instructed before interlocking his fingers with his fiancé’s. “Let’s go see a fireworks display!”

“Fireworks? Why bring so many people?” Luo Puti asked.

The people behind them asked, “Childe Chen, where are we going?”

Chen Xiaobei winked at them, “To see Tenshou’s capital planet!”
