Chapter 512: Digging A Pit
A prince was prestigious and had the nobility of the royal clan. However, he was far from being comparable to the Divine King in Jin.
This was a role only below the emperor. Even prince and princesses need to perform a greeting ceremony when meeting Feiyun.
Prince Hongye was a guest but he still needed to do the same.
“Rumble!” Eighteen members of the Martial Army came. Each had heavy armor with a long spear, resulting in an oppressive armor.
They surrounded the prince and ordered: “Surrender or die!”
“Surrender or die!”
These elites roared like thunder. The prince might look like a brute but he was quite intelligent and knew that something was amiss.
Normally, older cultivators couldn’t interfere with him and Feiyun, especially not the army. However, Feiyun had accused him of three crimes - disrespectful towards the princess, rude to the Divine King, and looking down on the Jin royal clan.
These three crimes were enough to imprison him.
This was no longer a youthful competition but Feiyun using his status to carry out the law. If the prince were to resist, it would bring about the resistance of the Jin experts. Even if they were to kill him, they could say that he was resisting and got rightfully killed in the process.
The prince was strong but the massive army would still pulverize him since this was still Jin’s territory. He naturally could deduce all of this.
However, being imprisoned here would harm his dynasty’s prestige and people would mock him to no end back in Sacred Spirit. This was unacceptable as well - quite a dilemma.
