Chapter 44: Responding to Fight_1
The news that Duan Yonghui had injured the guard general at ’Yin Mountain Pass’ and issued a challenge to Qin Wudao quickly spread throughout the Qin Empire, igniting the anger of countless Qin people.
"The Saint Heir of the Holy Fire Sect is utterly insolent! He even injured the guard general before issuing the challenge!"
"I heard that Duan Yonghui is a rare genius, the likes of which the Holy Fire Sect hasn’t seen in ten thousand years. Now that he has challenged the Crown Prince, I wonder if His Highness will accept!"
"Given the Crown Prince’s strength, he will definitely beat the Saint Heir of the Holy Fire Sect until he’s bruised and battered!"
...
Throughout the nine commanderies of Great Qin, all the old Qin people burned with a common grievance. They all hoped Qin Wudao would fight, to vent this collective anger and suppress the Holy Fire Sect’s arrogance. They were just ordinary people and didn’t understand the deeper meaning behind the challenge.
However, the upper echelons of the empire had discerned Duan Yonghui’s true intention—to seize Fortune. They urgently convened a court meeting to discuss countermeasures.
"Your Majesty, according to Skynet’s intelligence, Duan Yonghui is seventeen years old. He broke through to the mid-Nirvana Realm a month ago, achieving the eighth-stage Nirvana. He possesses a special physique, but its exact nature is unknown!" a Skynet guard reported respectfully in the solemn imperial court.
Upon hearing this, many court officials frowned slightly. They looked at Qin Wudao, who stood at the forefront of the officials, a trace of worry in their eyes. Duan Yonghui has broken through to the mid-Nirvana Realm, while the Crown Prince is only in the early Nirvana Realm. Can he win?
