"So it's the Sixth Prince, what brings you to me?" Lin Chen looked at Yun Feiyang and asked casually.
Lin Chen didn't care about the other party's status; he wasn't involved in the power struggle in the Cloud Dragon Kingdom and didn't pick sides, so he naturally wouldn't be polite to Yun Feiyang.
Joking aside, who knows if Yun Feiyang and Yun Kaige are in league; Yun Kaige attacked him out of nowhere, forming a vendetta. Lin Chen wasn't planning on letting the Yunlong Country Royal Family off the hook, so he naturally wouldn't show a good face to the Prince in front of him.
Anyway, the conflict with Yun Kaige was irreconcilable. Since he had already offended them, Lin Chen didn't care about offending another one. If they angered him, he wouldn't mind taking down another.
"Kid, do you know who you're talking to? Show some respect to my master, or else..." said a man clad in iron armor beside Yun Feiyang, glaring at Lin Chen with a cold demeanor.
Upon hearing this, Lin Chen's eyes immediately narrowed.
This person dared to threaten him like this; it looked like he was Yun Feiyang's guard. However, Lin Chen wasn't afraid of such threats.
"I won't be polite; what can you do?" Lin Chen wasn't pleased with the threats, he replied nonchalantly.
"Kid, you've got some nerve!" The burly man, seeing Lin Chen's arrogance, took two heavy steps forward, looking ready to teach Lin Chen a lesson.
Buzz——
Just then, a powerful aura emanated from Zi Ling, who looked at the burly man with a smile.
"Not bad, daring to move against my junior brother in front of me? Do you not see me here? It's been a while since I had a fight; look at your big size, but can you take a beating?" Zi Ling stared at the burly man and spoke coldly.
If someone threatened a disciple from her Yellow Hall, Zi Ling was naturally very displeased. After all, only she could bully her junior brother, no one else.
"Niugu, what are you doing? Step back immediately." Yun Feiyang saw Zi Ling and Niugu about to fight and hastily ordered Niugu to retreat.
One had to know Zi Ling was a violent maniac; once a fight started, it was hard to stop. Either Zi Ling was defeated, or they would be severely beaten by Zi Ling.
He didn't come here to provoke Zi Ling, so there was no need for misunderstandings.
Upon Yun Feiyang's order, Niugu, despite his annoyance, followed his master's command and retreated a few steps.
"My apologies, the two of you, Niugu just has this personality, please don't take it to heart," Yun Feiyang said, clasping his hands toward Lin Chen and Zi Ling after Niugu stepped back.
"Don't pull that on me. Tell me, what are you trying to do by approaching us?" Zi Ling wasn't buying Yun Feiyang's polite act and said disdainfully.
Zi Ling didn't have any real animosity towards Yun Feiyang, it was just her straightforward nature disliking such roundabout manners.
Yun Feiyang, as a senior student at Yunlong Heavenly Palace, had always been honest and unassuming within the palace; he didn't act high and mighty as a member of the Imperial Family, but rather like a gentle scholar.
Therefore, even if Zi Ling felt annoyed, she wasn't genuinely angry; facing such a gentle person, it was hard to muster hostility.
However, it should be noted that among the Outer Sect disciples at Yunlong Heavenly Palace, Yun Feiyang's ranking wasn't low; he ranked fourth right after Zi Ling.
But, it must be said, Yun Feiyang was eighteen years older than Yun Kaige, originally belonging to an earlier cohort. However, he didn't attend the Heavenly Palace's assessment back then, joining the palace later, and was just one cohort ahead of Lin Chen.
Additionally, his strength ranked fourth in the Outer Sect, yet Yun Kaige, though younger, had somewhat comparable strength, far surpassing Yun Feiyang in terms of talent.
Among the many princes, Yun Feiyang was merely average, appearing ordinary compared to the Third Prince Yun Chengji, Ninth Prince Yun Xinrui, and Thirteenth Prince Yun Kaige.
Therefore, in the royal succession struggle, no faction showed favor toward Yun Feiyang, treating him almost like he was invisible.
Instead, Yun Kaige, although not as powerful or influential as the Third Prince and Ninth Prince, had ample support.
Thus, the always arrogant Yun Kaige had ambitions for the throne, yet never considered Yun Feiyang as a competitor.
And it wasn't just him— the Third Prince Yun Chengji and Ninth Prince Yun Xinrui were the same.
After all, a prince with poor cultivation talent and no backing poses no threat.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen, I came over to buy some Flame Explosion Talismans from you."
"Really, I'm genuinely here to buy Talisman Inscriptions," Yun Feiyang said seriously, looking at Lin Chen.
It was his first meeting with Lin Chen today and he didn't understand why Lin Chen was so hostile toward him, not knowing how he had offended him.
"You're not here to cause me trouble?" Lin Chen asked casually, looking at Yun Feiyang, wondering if he had misunderstood, perhaps this guy was different from Yun Kaige?
Indeed, someone whom Zi Ling treated this way seemed indeed not a bad person.
"Junior Brother Lin Chen need not worry; our first meeting today, I bear no grudge, and therefore would not seek trouble with you." Yun Feiyang quickly explained, looking at Lin Chen.
"How am I supposed to know if you're telling the truth? I have a deep-seated vendetta with your Royal Family; you must understand, with your imperial brother, it's a fight to the bitter end." Lin Chen said calmly, clarifying his relationship with Yun Kaige for Yun Feiyang, so he was aware.
Saying all this might make interactions simpler, as Lin Chen didn't enjoy playing games.
"So that's how it is. Junior Brother Lin Chen, rest assured, your feud with the Thirteenth Brother is your business, unrelated to me. Do not bear hostility toward me because of him; I am me, and he is him."
