Live-in Son-in-law-Chapter 1057: You Dare Call Yourself King Before Me?

The Wind King's eyes narrowed, then he raised his hand, causing the soldiers who were about to charge to immediately rein in their horses and halt.

"Do you know the whereabouts of Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao?"

Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao killing the soldiers and generals of the Tianyue Empire is an event that hasn't occurred in centuries. Now, this incident has alarmed the entire Royal Family, and the Emperor personally issued the warrant, showing that the Royal Family is truly enraged.

This matter concerns the dignity of the Royal Family and must be handled strictly.

Now, Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao have appeared in his Fengwang City and even killed his son. Whether for public or private reasons, he must capture these two individuals. If they escape, then he, the Wind King, will become a laughingstock.

Ruyi nodded, "I know!"

"Where are they?"

"You release them first, and naturally I'll tell you their hiding place. Otherwise, do you think I would tell you? Wind King, you should be clear on how great an achievement it is to capture Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao. Capturing them will save the face of the Tianyue Imperial Family. If you fail, your Tianyue Imperial Family will become a joke. Weigh it for yourself."

The Wind King's eyes turned sinister, "Are you threatening me? Have you perhaps forgotten that you're now a captive?"

"Even as a captive, I'm still the Third Princess of the Yunyue Imperial Family. Wind King, speaking of status alone, you're not my equal."

"Hahaha..." The Wind King burst into laughter. "Such a Third Princess, I admire your courage and gall. But you are the fish on the chopping block, and I am the butcher. To talk to me about noble status now, do you think you're worthy?"

"Whether I'm worthy or not isn't for you or me to decide. Even in death, I'm still a Princess. And you, you're just a conferred King. I was born noble, and that's an incontrovertible fact."

Cheng Yukan said, "Father, don't bother with this bitch. Kill these lowlifes, and let your child bring her back. Under the torture of our Wind King Mansion, I doubt she'll maintain her arrogance."

The Wind King sneered, "That's indeed a good idea. The Third Princess's body is delicate; I wonder if she can withstand the tortures of my Wind King Mansion? Let's see if she can remain this calm then."

"You can try. As a Princess of the Yunyue Empire, I represent the Royal Family's face. At worst, I die. But if you want me to bow, that's impossible."

"Is that so?" I would like to see just how resilient you are, Third Princess. The Wind King's eyes turned vicious, swinging his hand suddenly, shouting, "Kill, leave no one but the Third Princess!"

Hundreds of soldiers charged like a flood, the cold spears and sharp swords immediately causing several courtesans to faint and lose control of their bowels.

However, three people were faster, blocking the path of Ruyi and the others. Their intentions were clear, charging directly at Ruyi.

These three, with fierce eyes and overwhelming aura, towered with terrifying pressure that made Jin Die, standing in front of Ruyi, vomit blood instantly—there was a vast gap in cultivation between them.

Nonetheless, Jin Die's gaze was determined. Ignoring the blood at the corner of her mouth, she stood tall, tightening her grip on the dagger in her hand, knuckles turning white. If she must die, she would die in front of the Princess.

"Princess, take care!"

"Jin Die." Ruyi's face paled with shock.

Jin Die rushed towards the three without any regard for her own life.

With her level of cultivation, she couldn't withstand a single blow from any of the three. This was a charge with the resolve to die.

The three men looked indifferent, not even considering Jin Die worthy of attention. One casually raised a palm, unleashing terrifying palm force.

At a distance of over ten meters, Jin Die's cheeks stung from the gust, her blood and Qi churning.

The terrifying palm force, carrying an overwhelming momentum, spelled certain death for Jin Die if struck.

However, an astonishing scene unfolded.

The Palm Wind suddenly dissipated, vanishing without a trace.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The three Nascent Soul mid-stage experts charging at Ruyi suddenly exploded into a mist of blood simultaneously.

The blood mist spread, splattering across Jin Die's face.

Everyone was stunned by this bizarre scene, the soldiers left in a daze.

Jin Die's gaze was dazed, her face full of fear. What kind of power could make three Nascent Soul Realm experts explode into blood mist?

Everyone was petrified, turned into statues.

The scene fell into dead silence.

"Who dares to roll out and face the King?" The Wind King was the first to regain his senses, roaring in anger.

"Wow!"

Seven-colored light shone down from the sky, the radiant glow overshadowing the firelight, illuminating the ground in vibrant hues.

Everyone instinctively looked up, seeing two figures hovering in the air.

The man was handsome like a demon, the woman as beautiful as a Fairy.

"Qin Yi, Yun Mengyao," the Wind King shouted in anger.

Ruyi was full of surprise, not expecting Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao to return.

Little did she know, they hadn't left at all, watching her from the shadows all along.

"Very well, this King was thinking about how to draw you out, not expecting you to appear yourself, saving me a lot of trouble."

Qin Yi chuckled coldly, his gaze indifferent, stepping down from the air as if on an invisible staircase, speaking casually, "A beast that slaughters innocents, in my presence, you dare to call yourself King?"

"Capture him," the Wind King roared in anger.

Qin Yi and Yun Mengyao were much more important than killing these lowlifes.

But he'd forgotten the gap between them; as a City Lord, high and mighty, no one dared defy him, lost in power, blindly arrogant to the extreme.

"Bang!"

Qin Yi, still ten meters from the ground, upon hearing the Wind King's words, suddenly stomped down, causing the air below to churn furiously.

"Boom Boom...!"

A dozen or so people below instantly exploded into blood mist, lingering for a long time.

The other soldiers, frightened out of their wits, reined back their horses hastily, not daring to approach.

The Wind King's eyes contracted severely, staring hard at Qin Yi.

"Anyone who dares move will be executed without mercy!"

Qin Yi's shout, like a Thunder Shock rolling in, swept through like autumn wind clearing fallen leaves.

Hundreds of soldiers, as if struck by lightning, coughed up blood, falling from their horses.

Everyone felt a chill to their bones, the terror of his voice alone to this extent.

"Wind King, they say there are a hundred thousand soldiers camped outside Fengwang City, guess if they are enough for me to kill?" Qin Yi's gaze was more indifferent than the soft moonlight, devoid of any emotion.

The Wind King felt a chill in his heart. Since being conferred as King, he hadn't felt this way in a long time.

"Your soldiers oppress the people, slaughter innocents, leaving them with no means to live, should they die? Your son destroyed people's faces, then sought to take their lives arrogantly, should he die?" Qin Yi looked at the Wind King, asking indifferently.

The Wind King's eyes turned venomous; as a City Lord, entrusted by the Royal Family, how could he easily bow down? He sneered, "Even if they did wrong, as soldiers of the Tianyue Empire, as my son, they aren't yours to kill."

Qin Yi quietly looked at him, "In that case, I understand!"
