Chapter 65. Checking In the Heaven-Patrolling Emperor Sword, An Tianyi of an Eternal Aristocratic Family!
Chu Feng was not surprised by the system’s warning.
This was perfectly normal.
After all, what was his current realm?
Merely the Condensing Dao Realm!
Compared to the Emperor Realm, the distance between them was unimaginably vast.
With such an enormous gap, how could he possibly unleash the full power of an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon? That was simply unrealistic.
Once activated, an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon possessed boundless power. Even if only one ten-millionth of its power were unleashed, it would be enough to terrify all living beings in the world.
Of course, only those infinitely close to the level of a Great Emperor could fully activate an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon and unleash its ultimate might.
Aside from that, even if one managed to activate such a weapon, it would still be impossible to reproduce its peak glory.
Chu Feng calmed his emotions slightly as flashes of brilliance continuously flickered within his eyes.
Who could have imagined that he now possessed an Extreme Dao Imperial Weapon?
This was something even the Great Chu Dynasty itself did not possess.
After all, the Great Chu Dynasty had never produced a Great Emperor.
Having just arrived here, Chu Feng had no intention of summoning it now.
In any case, it would serve as a hidden trump card. Within the vast and boundless Eastern Wasteland, he had become even more formidable.
At that moment—
RUMBLE…
A terrifying aura suddenly descended.
Chu Feng’s gaze shifted slightly. As the Chaos Dual Pupils circulated, he looked outside the war chariot.
He saw an elderly man in luxurious robes arriving before the chariot.
“May I ask which prince of the Great Chu Dynasty has arrived?”
“I am Wu Zhen, the Governor of Cangzhou!”
An aged voice sounded from outside.
It was Wu Zhen, the Governor of Cangzhou.
He looked curious, as he did not recognize whose exclusive war chariot the Scarlet Firmament Flame-Winged Beast belonged to.
After all, in the past, the Third Prince had merely been infamous. Few people had taken the effort to truly learn about him.
Inside the war chariot, Chu Feng spoke calmly.
“As the Governor of Cangzhou, do you not even recognize this prince?”
Wu Zhen was stunned upon hearing this.
Listening to Chu Feng’s tone, he could not immediately identify him.
Who exactly was this?
His words carried great confidence, yet he was clearly not the First Prince or the Second Prince.
Could he be the Fifth Prince?
No—that could not be right. The Fifth Prince had died recently, shocking the entire Great Chu Dynasty.
At that moment, a graceful figure stepped out of the war chariot.
It was Chu Feng’s maidservant, Shangguan Ziyun.
Shangguan Ziyun scolded sharply, “The Third Prince has arrived. Why have you not yet paid your respects?”
Wu Zhen’s body trembled.
The Third Prince!
Chu Feng!
Wu Zhen’s pupils shrank.
After the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony, the Third Prince’s name had spread throughout the entire Great Chu Dynasty.
Before that, although many people had known Chu Feng’s name—
He had been known mainly as a wastrel and a useless noble.
However, after the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony, everything had changed.
Chu Feng had taken first place in the ceremony, shocking the world and leaving countless people stunned.
“So it is Prince Chu Feng!”
Wu Zhen hurriedly spoke.
“Please forgive my poor eyesight for failing to recognize Your Highness. I have offended you and hope Your Highness will be magnanimous!”
“Enough nonsense,” Chu Feng said indifferently.
Wu Zhen nodded repeatedly.
“Yes, Your Highness. Please follow me!”
As the Governor of Cangzhou, receiving the royal geniuses of Great Chu was his foremost duty.
And Chu Feng’s status was especially extraordinary.
He was the champion of the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony.
Even Chu Tianchen had only placed second.
Wu Zhen led Chu Feng toward Tiansha City below.
…
Throughout Cangzhou, countless people were curious.
Which prince was seated within the war chariot pulled by the Scarlet Firmament Flame-Winged Beast?
Why was Wu Zhen behaving with such caution?
Even when facing Chu Tianchen earlier, he had not acted this carefully.
As time passed—
Half an hour later—
Everyone finally learned who was seated within the war chariot.
It was the Third Prince—
Chu Feng!
When people looked again at the Scarlet Firmament Flame-Winged Beast, shock appeared on their faces.
The one who had arrived was actually Chu Feng?
The dark horse who had taken first place in the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony!
“So it is Chu Feng!”
“Gasp, even the champion of the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony has arrived!”
“It is said that Chu Feng’s previous wastrel behavior was merely an act. He did it to make a stunning appearance during the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony and shake the world!”
“After the ceremony, Chu Feng seems to be able to stand on equal footing with the First Prince and the Second Prince!”
“That must be the case!”
“The First Prince and the Second Prince both once won the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony!”
“And now the Third Prince has done the same. His strength is probably on the same level as those two peerless geniuses!”
Across Cangzhou, countless people began discussing the matter.
The discussion surrounding Chu Feng’s arrival was even more intense than when Chu Tianchen had appeared.
After all, Chu Feng was a suddenly rising dark horse with limitless potential.
No one even knew how strong he truly was.
Could he really rival the First Prince and the Second Prince?
Chu Feng’s arrival completely overshadowed the Fourth Prince, Chu Tianchen.
Before this, many people had been discussing Chu Tianchen.
But after Chu Feng arrived, the conversation shifted entirely to him.
Moreover, the topic of discussion always placed Chu Feng alongside the First Prince and the Second Prince.
“In terms of age, the Third Prince seems even younger. However, I heard a rumor that during the Heavenly Hunt Ceremony, he broke a record that had stood for ages. Even several Commandery Princes present were shocked!”
“Gasp! He broke a record? Would that not make him even more terrifying than the First Prince and the Second Prince? Given time, he might surpass them!”
“What kind of era has the Great Chu Dynasty entered? Geniuses are appearing everywhere!”
Throughout Cangzhou, countless people were discussing these matters.
And just at that moment—
“Hmph!”
An extremely cold voice suddenly echoed through the sky, suppressing all discussions.
A tall young man dressed in black appeared walking across the sky above Cangzhou.
His body was extremely muscular, with bulging sinews covering his frame.
Clearly, this black-clothed youth had heard the discussions below.
He spoke coldly.
“Do you think just anyone can compare themselves to the First Prince?”
“The First Prince is incomparably brilliant and destined to become the Holy Emperor of Great Chu. He will crush all opposition!”
“And this Chu Feng dares to be mentioned in the same breath as the First Prince? It is an insult!”
The black-clothed youth’s cold and domineering voice rang loudly across the sky.
He had not even tried to conceal it.
It seemed as though he wanted all of Cangzhou to hear him.
Many people were stunned when they saw him.
Had this man gone mad?
Regardless of anything else, the other party was still a prince of the royal family.
Speaking so arrogantly and disrespectfully—did he not fear retaliation?
However, it did not take long for someone in the crowd to recognize the black-clothed youth.
“It is him—An Tianyi! The young master of the eternal aristocratic An Family!”
“And he is also the First Prince’s chief follower!”
Someone exclaimed in shock.
An eternal aristocratic family meant a family that had existed for at least ten thousand years.
A clan that could survive for so long naturally possessed unfathomably deep foundations.
And someone who could become its young master would naturally possess top-tier talent and strength.
