"What? You don't recognize me?"
Seeing Qin Ning frown slightly, Ming Yan laughed loudly and said, "Thanks to you, my father is now confined to his bed!"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Ning roughly guessed who this person was.
"You are Ming Changyun's son?"
Qin Ning stood up, looked at the young man in front of him, and said, "Didn't your father tell you what you should and shouldn't do?"
"Who do you think you are?"
Ming Yan said coldly, "I am the son of King You, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. You are just a commoner, Qin Ning. What exactly happened to my imperial father?"
"You dared to harm my imperial father and still live?"
"I must investigate this matter thoroughly!"
King You?
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?
Hearing these words, Lu Xuan, Zhang Xiaoshuai, and Xun Yu's expressions all changed slightly.
Why did Qin Ning provoke King You and the Crown Prince in front of them?
Throughout the entire Imperial Capital, who didn't know that King You was the Emperor's right-hand man?
And it was rumored that a few days ago, King You had rendered meritorious service in escorting the Emperor and was enfeoffed as a hereditary prince, becoming highly esteemed.
Qin Ning, why would he have a dispute with King You and this young Crown Prince?
"Investigate thoroughly?"
Qin Ning said coldly, "You're ruining my good mood, you know?"
"Damn it!"
Ming Yan roared angrily, "What's your good mood?
"This Crown Prince will take your life today!"
As soon as Ming Yan finished speaking, he stepped forward, condensing killing intent. The long sword lying on the ground immediately returned to his side, and under Ming Yu's control, it slashed towards Qin Ning.
"Just a third-level Spirit Sea Realm. Your father even had to kneel before me and beg. What kind of rusty nail are you?"
As Qin Ning spoke, the spirit sword, which had been flying straight back to Ming Yan's hand, was suddenly blocked by Qin Ning.
His hand suddenly grabbed it, and the hilt of the sword trembled.
Qin Ning snorted, and with one strike, he thrust the sword back towards Ming Yan.
At this moment, Ming Yan only felt a terrifying surge of killing intent tightly wrapping around him.
He wanted to escape but couldn't!
With a *thud*, the long sword pierced straight into his chest. Ming Yan's pupils bulged, but he couldn't utter a single word.
The others who had followed him were also terrified at this moment.
"He killed someone!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been killed!"
In an instant, the terrified attendants cried out in alarm.
"What's wrong? What's wrong?"
Suddenly, several people rushed out from another room. Seeing the blood splattered across the room, the leader was suddenly astonished, his expression changing.
"Qin Ning, you, you, you... you dared to kill Crown Prince Ming Yan!"
At this moment, Ming Jie's fingers trembled, his whole body shaking, angry but unable to roar.
However, a cold, mocking glint flashed in the corner of his eye, only to disappear instantly.
This time, Qin Ning killed King You's Crown Prince. Let's see how he escapes punishment!
Last time, Qin Ning killed the Third Prince Ming Xuan, and after entering the imperial palace, he walked out unharmed.
Ming Jie had always found this matter too unbelievable.
But this time, Ming Jie personally verified it. He didn't believe Qin Ning could still remain above the law.
"Guards! Qin Ning assaulted His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Arrest him and take him to the Heavenly Prison for interrogation. This prince must uphold the fairness of the law."
Seeing Ming Jie's unyielding expression, Qin Ning sneered.
"It's you again!"
Qin Ning said speechlessly, "Ming Jie, this is the third time you've provoked me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Qin Ning smirked and said casually, "I dared to kill Ming Xuan, and I dared to cripple Ming Changyun. Do you really think you're worth more than them?"
At these words, Ming Zhe's eyelids twitched slightly.
He knew that Ming Xuan had been killed by Qin Ning, but was Prince You really crippled by Qin Ning?
Impossible. If Qin Ning had truly crippled him, how could Qin Ning have left the imperial palace unharmed?
Prince You and the Emperor were like brothers; the Emperor wouldn't let Qin Ning off so easily.
At this moment, Ming Zhe just felt that something was amiss.
"You want to die? I'll give you a ride!"
Seeing his elder brother in such a miserable state today had already put him in a bad mood. He had wanted to have a meal with Zhang Xiaoshuai and Lu Xuan to soothe the anger in his heart.
But he hadn't expected this Ming Zhe to still be so stubbornly deluded.
Want to provoke him and seek death?
Then I'll grant your wish!
Qin Ning held the long sword in his hand and walked step by step towards Ming Zhe.
"Kill him for me!"
At this moment, Ming Zhe roared frantically.
"Kill me? Let's see if you have the ability!"
Qin Ning was at the third level of the Spirit Sea Realm, but he wasn't an ordinary third-level Spirit Sea Realm cultivator.
An ordinary martial artist at the first level of the Spirit Sea Realm would condense one Spirit Sea, but he needed to condense nine.
It could be said that he possessed nine times the strength of ordinary martial artists at the same realm.
And as the number of condensed Spirit Seas increased, the gap would only grow larger.
This was also why he could easily defeat opponents at the sixth level of the Spirit Sea Realm.
At this moment, the long sword in Qin Ning's hand looked very lively, like a spiritual serpent, moving with exceptional speed and powerful techniques.
"Show mercy!"
Suddenly, an urgent voice rang out.
Several figures in iron armor strode down from upstairs.
The leader was panting, looking at the scene in the room, and said urgently.
"Brother Qin, please show mercy, please show mercy!"
The newcomer looked at Qin Ning with a solemn expression: "Brother Qin, please show mercy!"
At this moment, Ming Yu's face was flushed, and he stood in front of Qin Ning, breathing heavily.
Afraid that Qin Ning wouldn't stop and would kill Ming Zhe, Ming Yu took a deep breath and said, "Brother Qin, this brat Ming Zhe has offended you, committing a grave crime. I will immediately apprehend him and throw him into the imperial prison for my imperial father to personally interrogate!"
"As for Ming Yan, he was killed by Brother Qin in self-defense for trying to murder someone in a crowded place. His death does not atone for his crimes."
As Ming Yu spoke, he ordered his subordinates to quickly lift the body and carry it away.
"Ming Yu, you bastard, what are you saying?" Ming Zhe was completely stunned when he heard this.
Ming Yu arrived, didn't ask a single question, but apologized to Qin Ning first, and then wanted to arrest him?
Is this guy crazy?
Slap…
At this moment, Ming Yu turned around, swung a slap, and scolded, "Say one more word, and do you believe this Crown Prince will kill you!"
In that instant, Ming Zhe felt a murderous aura emanating from Ming Yu.
Ming Yu truly had murderous intent towards him.
Only then did Ming Zhe completely deflate.
At this moment, Ming Yu waved his hand, and the guards escorted the person away.
"Brother Qin…"
"Being soft-hearted isn't a good thing!" Qin Ning said indifferently.
"Brother Qin, rest assured!" Ming Yu said respectfully, "I will definitely report to imperial father and teach this brat a good lesson. If there's a next time, Brother Qin won't need to act; Ming Yu will personally kill him for Brother Qin!"
Regarding this, Qin Ning waved his hand and said nothing more.
