Chapter 305: Chapter 305

The crowd followed the voice and saw that the speaker was none other than the Second Prince of Dajin Country, Ye Chenxiao.

"Second Brother, why do you want me to hold back? Are you worried that I will lose to this man?"

Little Overlord Ye Rui frowned and said with a displeased expression.

"Imperial Brother, I trust your strength, but those talents from Gray Wolf Kingdom are distinguished guests who have traveled from afar. We should treat them with courtesy. Moreover, there's no deep hatred between you two; there's no need for a meaningless fight to the death. Cultivate peacefully, and once we enter the Imperial Secret Realm, I assure you, you'll have your fill of battle."

Ye Chenxiao said with a faint smile.

However, the real reason he intervened to stop the fight was not disclosed.

That was because he had already seen that Zhao Letian's strength was inscrutable.

After witnessing Ye Rui's Golden Flood Dragon Martial Soul, Zhao Letian still dared to propose a fight to the death in public, which showed his immense confidence in his own abilities.

If the fight had continued, the one likely to suffer would probably be Ye Rui.

Whether Ye Rui lived or died was not Ye Chenxiao's main concern; rather, Ye Rui's victory or loss was tied to the honor of the Dajin Royal Family and even the whole Dajin Country. He could not allow Ye Rui to take that risk.

"Fine then, since Second Brother has spoken, I'll spare this man for now. Today's matter, we'll settle it after entering the Imperial Secret Realm."

Ye Rui gazed at Zhao Letian and said coldly, then went straight back to his own seat.

Seeing that Ye Rui had stopped, Zhao Letian couldn't help but frown.

Today's issue was initiated by Ye Rui; he fought when he wanted and stopped when he pleased—it was a bit too arrogant.

If it were anywhere else, Zhao Letian would certainly not let it go easily and would have slain Ye Rui on the spot.

However, this was the Royal Palace of Dajin Country, and Second Prince Ye Chenxiao had also stepped in; if he persisted in demanding to fight, it definitely would not end well.

This was the adage, "Beneath the eaves, one must bow the head."

With no alternatives, Zhao Letian could only return to his seat with a sullen face.

However, he had taken an interest in that Golden Flood Dragon Martial Soul of Ye Rui's, and if given a chance, he would certainly take it without hesitation.

Seeing this outcome, the people present all showed disappointed expressions.

Everyone had thought that upon their first meeting, the talents from the three great nations would clash with intense sparks, determining superiority. They hadn't expected the matter to be hastily concluded.

Especially for people like Wanyan Zheng; seeing that Zhao Letian didn't incur significant losses, they felt even more regretful.

"My lords, the Dajin Royal Family has prepared accommodations for you all. After today's banquet concludes, you may proceed directly to the Royal Inn. There, your safety will be the responsibility of our Dajin Royal Family, until the arrival of the Imperial Envoy. As for other places, you must be more vigilant, for our Royal Capital is inclusive and has a large foreign population. It's hard to guarantee that there won't be people with ulterior motives among them. For your safety, I suggest that you best not leave the inn lightly. Come, let's drink to this."

Ye Chenxiao picked up his wine glass, glanced around at everyone, and said with a smile.

Everyone raised their wine glasses and responded to Ye Chenxiao with a toast. Content presented by *.

Soon, the banquet came to an end, and the talents from the three great nations dispersed.

Zhao Letian followed the Dajin Country's group to the Royal Inn.

The Royal Inn consisted of several wooden pavilions, simple and exquisite, magnificent and stylish.

The entire inn was situated atop a high-quality Elemental Stone Vein, with an extraordinarily abundant supply of Primordial Energy, no less potent than the Holy Spirit Academy in the Gray Wolf Capital.

After confirming his living quarters, Zhao Letian did not stay to rest. Instead, he employed the Disguise Technique, changed his appearance, and hurriedly left the inn.

Upon his arrival at the Royal Capital of Dajin Country, Zhao Letian had already contacted his mother, Zhao Yixin, through the Communication Jade Scroll he carried.

However, for some unknown reason, he was unable to reach her, his mother who should have been in the Royal Capital already, leaving him anxious and his thoughts in turmoil.

There were only two possible reasons for not being able to contact his mother, either his mother was not in the Royal Capital, or she had encountered some kind of trouble.

If it was the former, then it was still manageable, but if it was the latter, then it was bad news.

At that moment, disregarding the dangers, Zhao Letian hurriedly left the inn, determined to ascertain his mother's whereabouts.

Not long after leaving the inn, Zhao Letian managed to locate an information agency through inquiries and spared no expense in asking them to gather news about his mother.

In the Royal Capital of Dajin Country, without any support, he could only use this method to find out about his mother's whereabouts.

To increase the chances of success, Zhao Letian then consecutively sought out another five or six information agencies.

Afterwards, he returned to the inn to engage in closed-door cultivation, calmly waiting for those information agencies to send back their findings.

Three days later, the information agencies that Zhao Letian had commissioned began to relay the results of their investigation one after another.

Yet these results only caused Zhao Letian's brows to furrow deeply.

The results from all the information agencies were strikingly similar; that is, his mother, Zhao Yixin, had never come to the Royal Capital of Dajin Country.

"This is impossible; my maternal grandfather and father are both in the Royal Capital of Dajin Country. If not here, where else could Mother have gone? Could it be that she encountered some trouble on the way?"

Zhao Letian's face darkened, his thoughts racing frantically.

If his mother indeed ran into trouble on the way to the Royal Capital, then the problem was serious.

With the long distance between Qingzhou City and the Royal Capital of Dajin Country, if something happened on the way, it would be difficult to even begin searching.

However, as his only close kin, he must determine his mother's whereabouts no matter what, otherwise, he would not be able to rest in peace.

"Datiger mentioned that Commandery Princess Ye Junrou and Weiwei were also in the Royal Capital of Dajin Country, but I can't contact them either. If I had the help of Ye Junrou, perhaps it would be easier to solve this problem."

Zhao Letian felt quite dejected. Not only could he not get in touch with his mother, but he also couldn't reach Ye Junrou and the others.

"Could it be that Mother has found Grandfather and left the Royal Capital, heading back to Qingzhou City?"

After some contemplation, Zhao Letian thought of a possibility.

It was a very likely possibility and also the only one he could go and verify.

Thinking this, Zhao Letian did not hesitate. He once again used the Disguise Technique, left the inn, and headed straight for the city outskirts.

Once outside the gates of the Royal Capital, Zhao Letian took out the Nine-star Flying Spirit Artifact, the Cloud Piercing Boat, and transformed into an astonishingly fast green streak of light, dashing towards Qingzhou City far in the distance.

It took more than ten days for Zhao Letian to finally return to Qingzhou City.

Looking at the familiar city walls, Zhao Letian couldn't help but feel emotional; the first time he saw Qingzhou City, he thought it was an unimaginably grand city. But after having seen War King City, Gray Wolf Capital, and the Royal Capital of Dajin Country, this small Qingzhou City now seemed rather insignificant.

Of course, back then, Zhao Letian's cultivation was hardly worth mentioning, at the mere level of Primordial Martial Fifth Realm.

At that time, not to mention someone from the Sect Martial Realm, even those in the True Martial Realm were terrifying existences beyond his capacity to contend with.

But now, he was a formidable presence who had personally slain someone from the Sect Martial Realm.
