Chapter 129 When the King's Order is issued, all retreat!
logically speaking, unless the king of the southern territory was cloistered in deathly seclusion, it would be absolutely impossible for him to refuse an audience with the other three realm rulers, let alone the king kao shan from the imperial capital.
after all, king kao shan's status was even above the rulers of the four realms, and his identity was revered, so the king of the southern territory could not possibly fail to give him face!
in other words, this command denying entry to anyone was not issued by the king of the southern territory, but someone else had presumptuously done so!
ye feng slowly narrowed his eyes and asked, "in this courtyard, apart from the king of the southern territory, are there any other people who enter on regular days?"
however, those eight guards merely sneered, not even bothering to look at the youth seated in the wheelchair, let alone respond to him.
zhuge yu stepped forward and said, "reporting to your majesty, although we are not allowed to enter on regular days, the divine doctor from the hundred herbs realm and the domain lord of hundred herbs are often seen coming and going. it is said, it seems to be for treating the king of the southern territory's illnesses and injuries."
ye feng's expression suddenly darkened, and in an instant, he understood everything.
"give them one last chance, step aside, or we will directly cripple them without further ado," ye feng issued the order, not wasting any more words.
"as your majesty commands!" xia lengchan bowed and accepted the order.
once the northern border king issued an order, it did not matter if they were just eight little guards or if there were several great commanders standing in front – it would still not work.
the eight guards sneered, "you have a lot of nerve to act rashly. could it be that you don't even consider the king of the southern territory, thinking of seeking an early grave?"
"a mere little guard dares to question this commander? it seems like you've grown tired of living!"
with an angry shout, xia lengchan charged forward and quickly subdued the guards.
just then, a cold rebuking voice suddenly came from the courtyard.
"who dares to make a racket and cause trouble outside, do you have no wish to live?!"
xiao chuanqi sneered, "if no one is allowed to enter, then how did you gain entry?"
xiao jingyuan was taken aback and suddenly realized he had misspoken, but he quickly regained his composure and snorted, "of course we're different. as the domain lord of the hundred herbs realm, i am skilled in the healing arts. i must come here every now and then to treat the king of the southern territory. this is something the whole southern territory knows!"
ye feng lifted his head to look at the courtyard inside and noticed that despite the commotion lasting for so long, not a hint of movement had come from inside, and the king of the southern territory had yet to appear, which was completely unreasonable.
at this thought, ye feng took out his northern border king's order and declared, "the northern border king's order is here. i urgently need to discuss important military matters with the king of the southern territory. anyone who dares obstruct me shall be executed without discussion according to the law of the land!"
xia lengchan stood up straight in an instant and shouted angrily, "domain lord xiao jingyuan, step aside, unless you wish to die!"
xiao jingyuan's expression darkened, his eyes narrowing tightly. after a moment of contemplation, he gnashed his teeth and ordered, "someone, where are the four great protectors? this man forges the king's order and impersonates the northern border king, in an attempt to assassinate our king of the southern territory. kill him!"
it must be said that upon hearing xiao jingyuan's command, whether it was sima zhantian, xiao chuanqi, or xia lengchan, the three former commanders of the southern territory, they were all shocked. they could never have anticipated that the domain lord of the hundred herbs realm would dare to defy orders, even to the point of wanting to kill the northern border king.
this was practically the crime of grand treason!
"arrest him!" ye feng gave the direct order.
in an instant, sima zhantian and xiao chuanqi swept out, with xia lengchan, zhuge yu, and li jingang, the three little commanders moving as well.
meanwhile, four figures leapt out from behind xiao jingyuan, and by their appearance, they seemed to be the four great protectors of the hundred herbs realm, four huajin grandmasters.
however, these four huajin grandmasters were all low level, and their combat power was far inferior to the two great military leaders, xiao chuanqi and sima zhantian.
so, not even lasting one round, the four great protectors were defeated, two dead and two injured, and even xiao jingyuan was directly captured.
ye feng fixed his gaze on him and said sternly, "spare his life for now. after i meet the king of the southern territory and investigate the facts thoroughly, we will then question his crime!"
having said that, ye feng pushed his wheelchair and went directly into the courtyard.
