Chapter 883 Prince Su
A young man named Su Rui stood with his hands behind his back, coldly issuing the order in a commanding tone. He exuded the air of a high and mighty ruler as he passed judgment on Chu Feng's crimes with just a few words.
As soon as these words were spoken, it was as if thunder had struck, and everyone could hear ringing in their ears.
"What? Stripped of his title, reduced to a commoner, and banished to the border? This Dragon Soul's God of War has truly caused a great disaster!"
"Ah, that is why one shouldn't be so arrogant. The Martial Arts Alliance has the support of the imperial family behind them. It doesn't matter how powerful he is; how can he compare to the imperial family that has a history of hundreds of years?"
"A brilliant rising star is about to fall, such a pity..."
The crowd at the scene discussed and argued over their opinions. Some expressed genuine regret and admiration toward an individual like Chu Feng. Some reveled in schadenfreude as they couldn't wait to see their enemy suffer. Meanwhile, there were also some who breathed a sigh of relief.
Wei Zhongxian felt his nerves calm as he listened to Su Rui's words. His face twisted in a malicious sneer as he looked at Chu Feng. In his eyes, this guy was already a dead man.
Even though he was a god-level powerhouse, he was still severely injured after battling against the disciples of the Martial Arts Alliance and destroying the Martial Arts Alliance tower!
How could he contend with over a hundred grandmaster-level imperial guards and walk out of here alive?
"Chu Feng, why aren't you kneeling and accepting the sentence? Do you intend to defy the imperial decree?" Wei Zhongxian shouted harshly, deliberately provoking Chu Feng's anger as he looked at the tall figure standing in front of him.
Chu Feng merely glanced coldly at the so-called Imperial Su Family members in front of him. There wasn't a hint of fear in his eyes as he calmly intoned, "I'm sorry. I only follow military orders, not so-called imperial decrees. Besides, I have no knowledge of this 'imperial family' you speak of."
"My current status and achievements were earned through my own blood, sweat, and tears. I fought through real battles to get to where I am now. My title was certainly not bestowed upon me by people like you who claim to be of imperial blood."
"Therefore, you have no right to
dictate my life." Chu Feng picked up a long sword, his gaze icy as he said, "So, I suggest that all of you scram. If you provoke me, I'll make sure that
all of you will be buried in the snow!"
A surging, menacing aura, as if condensed into substance, caused Su Rui's eyes to narrow and his face to change.
"Insolence! How dare you disrespect the fifteenth prince? How dare you act that way against your betters?!" An imperial guard standing beside Su Rui drew his long sword and fiercely confronted Chu Feng. "Step aside."
Su Rui stopped his subordinate with a flick of his slender fingers. Then, he scanned Chu Feng up and down as he drawled, "Not bad, you do have some backbone. I admire you for that."
"I, as the prince, will give you a chance. You will join me and become my servant in my mansion from now on. When I inherit the throne and achieve great success, you will naturally benefit from it."
He stood with his hands behind his back, looking proud and arrogant. It seemed that he genuinely thought he had bestowed a great favor upon Chu Feng as he continued, "When you retire after serving under my family, it will naturally bring honor and prosperity to your ancestors."
Whoosh!
As soon as these words were spoken, the scene immediately erupted into a clamor of discussion.
"The God of War of a country, becoming his servant? This Prince Su truly is an embodiment of someone abusing their power."
"Hmph. That's where you're wrong.
This is the imperial family we're talking about here! They have at least centuries' worth of wealth and connections. Worldly fame and fortune are like fleeting clouds in their eyes. Don't you know that several high-ranking officials and nobles would love to gain even the tiniest favor of the imperial family? Plus, he's also given a promise that Chu Feng would have a place by his side in the future."
"So, is this actually a great opportunity?"
"This is definitely a huge opportunity. As long as he becomes Prince Su's servant, it means he's part of the imperial family. From then on, his path to success is guaranteed." Wei Zhongxian also sneered and disdainfully said, "Congratulations, Chu Feng. You're part of the 'imperial family' from now on."
