Chapter 95
The Purple Heaven Divine Thunder and the Golden Thunder spun out of control!
Though the thunder had already been summoned, it was now beyond control, and could not be recalled. Instead, it turned towards Zhao Yunji as its target.
“I didn’t expect it to still be lacking…” She murmured, her voice faint, as her pupils dimmed.
The immensely powerful Golden Thunder was likely to turn the entire area into ruins.
“You all, leave now!” Biting her crimson lips, Zhao Yunji soared into the air, facing the Golden Thunder head-on.
Zhao Yunji had always been a proud individual, and even in this moment, she remained so. The mistake was hers, and she intended to bear the consequences herself.
She couldn’t allow her younger sister or any innocent bystanders to be harmed.
She was well aware that even with her protective Sacred Artifact and Sacred Weapon in hand, she might not be able to fully block the Golden Thunder.
If she were unlucky, severe injury or even death was a real possibility.
Boom!
In a flash, the first bolt of Golden Thunder struck down. The thunder, like a golden dragon emerging from the sea, was surrounded by golden beads, shining brightly like gold, and the terrifying power it contained was unfathomable.
Zhao Yunji raised her sword to take the hit head-on. Yet, even this first bolt was enough to strike her down, causing her to drop her sword, barely managing to block it thanks to her protective Sacred Artifact.
She plummeted like a kite with a broken string. The most dangerous part was that the second bolt of Golden Thunder was already following, with the third bolt ready to strike…
The most anxious ones were the guards from the Tai’an Imperial City and the protectors of the two princesses.
This situation had escalated so suddenly that they couldn’t even attempt a rescue, only able to watch in despair.
If all nine bolts of Golden Thunder were to fall, even a peak Celestial Realm expert might not survive them all.
This was the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder of the Heavenly Dao, not something formed by spiritual power!
“Sword Emperor, Shenfengzi requests to go for the rescue.” Shenfengzi, also known as the Wind Saint, was the fastest under the Great Emperor. If he acted now, he might just make it in time.
“Hurry!” Mu Qingzhu urged anxiously.
“No rush.” The Sword Emperor squinted, his gaze deep.
His son showed no signs of panic, so he wasn’t afraid of the Golden Thunder? He was curious to see how Lin Qi’an would handle this situation!
Suddenly, a figure in white rose with the wind, catching Zhao Yunji in his arms.
She was, after all, Lin Qi’an’s fiancée in name, so he couldn’t just stand by and do nothing. Moreover, she was the Fate-bound Daughter of the plot, and subduing her would reduce the opponent’s Luck Value.
In both sentiment and reason, Lin Qi’an couldn’t sit idly by.
“The Crown Prince has made his move!”
“But the Crown Prince had already used all his moves against the Yin Thunder; he can’t possibly withstand this one, could he? Is he seeking death?”
“You…” Zhao Yunji hadn’t even finished her sentence when the second bolt of Golden Thunder struck down.
Lin Qi’an held her with his left hand, gripping the Thunder Emperor’s sword in his right, his eyes fixed on the sky.
What happened next stunned everyone!
The Golden Thunder, which carried the might of the heavens, stopped dead in its tracks in front of Lin Qi’an’s sword, like a golden dragon that had suddenly become tame, with no trace of aggression.
This is impossible…
Zhao Yunji’s beautiful eyes widened in shock.
Lin Qi’an had actually controlled the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder?! If he was skilled in thunder techniques, it might be understandable, but without top-level thunder techniques, this was absolutely impossible!
In the previous battle, Lin Qi’an hadn’t even used his full strength?
Zhao Yunji leaned against Lin Qi’an’s chest, momentarily forgetting that her waist was still being held by him, her gaze unfocused.
The first goddess of the Canglan Dao Domain, this was the first time she had ever been held in a man’s arms. This scene caused everyone to fall into silence.
“This is beyond belief…” Even Zhao Qingmeng found it hard to believe.
True, Lin Qi’an had obtained the Thunder Emperor’s inheritance, but he had only studied it for two days!
Even with the Thunder Emperor’s techniques and divine abilities, she couldn’t believe he could master them to the extent of controlling the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder in just two days.
“This is bad, he managed to show off again. Elder Sister will be shocked once more… This didn’t happen in the previous life, damn it!”
Su Xueni couldn’t understand what the little princess was muttering. She only thought that the Crown Prince was incredibly handsome.
As for jealousy? There was no need for it. She was far ahead of everyone else and could afford to be calm.
“The Crown Prince has controlled the Divine Thunder?”
“My god, this is insane! The Crown Prince was still hiding his cards.”
“Just who is the Crown Prince? How does he know everything…”
This scene was even more shocking than if he had shattered the Golden Thunder! Controlling it was on a completely different level of difficulty than destroying it.
There was only one possibility. The Crown Prince also had extremely high mastery in thunder techniques!
Lin Qi’an redirected the Golden Thunder, sending it back into the sky, where it collided with the third bolt of Golden Thunder.
In an instant, golden light filled the sky as terrifying thunder exploded over a hundred miles.
All creation trembled!
The fourth and fifth bolts of Golden Thunder followed closely behind.
Lin Qi’an used the same method, leveraging strength to counter strength, using thunder to strike thunder.
In truth, his ability to control the Golden Thunder relied more on the Thunder Emperor’s Sacred Weapon, the Thunderbolt Sword, rather than his own thunder techniques.
But no one else knew this.
To everyone else, he looked like a god descended to earth, wielding thunder and radiating divine light! Even Zhao Yunji herself was captivated…
The Crown Prince of Beiyang, who once seemed like a hedonistic, debauched playboy, had today revealed himself to be the true favored son of the heavens within the Dao Domain.
One could imagine that once word of today’s battle spread, it would incite the fervent admiration of countless women, and among the younger generation, no one would be able to overshadow his brilliance.
Having such a man as her fiancé, it seemed she had gained more than she thought.
Zhao Yunji, who had always held herself in high regard, found her mindset undergoing a significant change; she even began lowering her own stance.
The ninth bolt of Golden Thunder, as if possessing intelligence, hesitated in the clouds, reluctant to strike, before gradually dissipating and vanishing.
All nine bolts of Golden Thunder had been neutralized just like that. By this time, the torrential rain had also gradually ceased, and the world returned to peace.
The spectators on the plain had long gone mad with excitement!
“The Crown Prince really withstood all nine bolts of Golden Thunder…”
“Who would have thought that he only recently entered the Transcendent Realm!”
“In the past, people always said the Crown Prince of Beiyang was unworthy of the first goddess, Zhao Yunji. Haha! After today, those rumors can be put to rest.”
“Crown Prince, you are mighty! Crown Prince, you are mighty!”
All the cultivators of Beiyang felt their spirits soar.
