Rebirth of the Strongest Seventh Prince

Chapter 135: King of the North

As they got closer to Zhenbei Fort, everyone gradually saw the huge fort clearly, and they were all greatly shocked by it. Zhenbei Fort is located on a mountain behind Zhenbei Pass. The entire fort is nearly 100 meters high, towering into the clouds. Standing on the top of the fort, you can almost see the entire Zhenbei Pass, and even the scene outside the pass.

The bunker is triangular in shape, very similar to the pyramids built during the Yama civilization in South America, but of course much larger in scale. The bunker is made of brown iron rock, so the whole bunker looks like a brown towering tower, giving people a solemn feeling.

Seeing the unbelievable expressions on his juniors' faces, Zhao Yansheng couldn't help but smile and said, "It's shocking. When I first came to Northern Xinjiang and saw this bunker, I had the same expression as you."

Ji Fei suddenly came up to Zhao Yansheng, licked his face and asked with a grin, "Senior, I heard that one of the only two artifacts of our Chu State is in the northern border. It can't be in this bunker!"

Everyone gathered around when they heard this. A divine weapon is something that is hard to come by. Even the Chu State, one of the eight great empires on the continent, only has two of them. You can imagine how rare they are.

Zhao Yansheng nodded and pointed to the top of Zhenbei Fort and said, "See? The small tower at the top of the fort is where the divine artifact Zhentian Tower is. If it weren't for the Zhentian Tower, Zhenbei Pass would have been reduced to ruins long ago!"

Zhenbei Pass is so magnificent and the walls are so solid. If they were told that it would be destroyed by the monster tide, everyone would obviously not believe it. Seeing the expressions of his juniors, Zhao Yansheng patiently explained, "Don't disbelieve me. Remember I said that this monster tide was led by six holy beasts? Just imagine how much damage six forbidden spells would cause if they fell on Zhenbei Pass."

Everyone was stunned. This was a forbidden spell, which could easily destroy a small city. If six forbidden spells were cast at the same time, the destructive power that would be caused was imaginable.

"Six forbidden spells, how can the Zhentian Tower alone defend against them?" A worry appeared on Richie's face. His father was also in Zhenbei Pass. If it was true as Senior Zhao said, his father would be in great danger.

Zhao Yansheng said somewhat sadly: "Of course it is impossible to defend them one by one. Although I did not participate in that battle, I also learned a general idea from the soldiers defending the city. At that time, the forbidden spell of the sacred beast Earth Bear alone almost caused the walls of Zhenbei Pass to collapse. At that time, even the walls that were more than ten feet thick began to shake, and huge cracks appeared one after another, which looked shocking. Fortunately, the magician corps in Zhenbei Fort activated the Zhentian Tower in time and cast the Earth Guardian, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable. The following forbidden spell meteor shower caused us heavy losses. Together with the civilians, the number of casualties reached nearly 100,000."

Everyone held their breath and listened quietly to Zhao Yansheng's story.

"In order to cast forbidden defensive magic, almost every magician in Zhenbei Fort had exhausted their magic power. At the critical moment, King Zhenbei stepped forward and fought against the four holy beasts alone. Although he returned with serious injuries, he successfully held back the four holy beasts and bought time for the soldiers."

Hearing this, Chu Feiyun could no longer hold back and asked anxiously: "Senior, how is my grandfather now? Is his injury healed?"

When Zhao Yansheng saw Chu Feiyun, his eyes lit up immediately and he smiled and said, "This must be Princess Feiyun. The old man, the King of Zhenbei, has mentioned you in front of us many times. Princess, please rest assured. The King of Zhenbei's injury has healed. He always said that fighting with the four sacred beasts was the most enjoyable battle in his life and he missed it very much."

The beautiful lady Chu's expression improved slightly, and she said angrily, "This old man, doesn't he know how worried we are?"

Hearing the complaint from the beautiful Chu, Zhao Yansheng coughed twice, not knowing how to respond.

Everyone walked towards Zhenbeibao while listening to Zhao Yansheng's narration of the battle at Zhenbei Pass. After hearing most of the battle, everyone came to the gate of Zhenbeibao. What moved everyone was that the old man, the King of Zhenbei, actually came to the gate to greet them in person.

This was also the first time that a certain dude had seen the King of Zhenbei, the guardian of the northern border of Chu State, who had absolute prestige in Chu State. Unlike Long Batian, who was domineering, King of Zhenbei Chu Haoran looked like a kind old man. He had guarded the northern border for many years and devoted his entire life to his country. At this time, he already had a head full of silver hair and his old body looked a little frail, but everyone knew how terrifying the energy hidden in this seemingly fragile body was.

Chu Haoran walked towards the crowd, hugged Hu Bugui and laughed, "Old man, after all these years, you still look like this, you are such a show-off!"

Show off! Hu Bugui's mouth twitched fiercely. This old bastard didn't even give him face. He pretended not to care and said, "How come you are so old, old man? Fortunately, your memory has not declined. You still remember the defeated generals back then."

"Haha, how could I bear to forget such a glorious thing!" Chu Haoran let go of Hu Bugui and smiled proudly.

Hu Bugui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He was originally a loyal and honest man. He couldn't beat Chu Haoran in an argument. He raised his hands in surrender and said, "You old bastard, after all these years, your mouth is still so stinky. I can't argue with you. I admit defeat!"

These two old immortals are really shameless! They kept saying dirty things in front of so many juniors. Feeling the strange looks from everyone, the beautiful Chu felt so ashamed that she hurriedly said to Chu Haoran angrily, "Grandpa, you are only busy greeting your good friends and don't care about your granddaughter?"

Hearing his granddaughter's voice, Chu Haoran patted his head, as if he had just noticed Chu Feiyun, and immediately said happily: "Girl, why are you here? Really, you didn't write to grandpa. Come here and let grandpa hug you. Let me see if you have grown up."

The beautiful Chu threw herself into Chu Haoran's arms like a little girl, crying softly, "Grandpa, I heard that you were seriously injured some time ago. Why didn't you send a message to our family to let us rest assured!"

Feeling his granddaughter's deep worry, Chu Haoran's eyes filled with tears, and he said with relief: "Girl, don't worry, your grandpa is very healthy. Even if two more holy beasts come, grandpa can defeat them."

“Boasting!” The beautiful lady Chu grabbed Chu Haoran’s ear mischievously, twisted it 360 degrees, and said coquettishly: “You old pervert, let’s see if you dare to mess around again in the future!”

"Ouch, ouch, it hurts, girl, please spare my old bones." The dignified King of Zhenbei actually begged for mercy under the claws of the beautiful Chu. When a certain playboy saw the familiar action of the beautiful Chu, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, and his hand naturally touched his ears. He had tried the jade claws of the beautiful Chu many times and couldn't help but sympathize with this old man.

"If you swear to never do this again, I will let go!" The beautiful Chu was unreasonable and her jade claws showed no sign of loosening.

Under the might of the claws, the dignified King Zhenbei had to swallow the bitter fruit and sign a series of unequal treaties, only then did he dispel the anger of the beautiful Chu.

Seeing this farce between grandfather and grandson, everyone smiled and felt very warm.

After reminiscing about the past with her grandfather, the beautiful lady Chu pulled a certain dude to her side and introduced him to her grandfather: "Grandpa, this is the seventh prince Chu Tiange."

In front of this old man who was still full of energy, the dude did not dare to slack off and bowed respectfully, saying, "Grandson Chu Lingfeng greets Second Grandpa!"

Hearing the words "Seventh Prince Chu Lingfeng", Chu Haoran's smile suddenly disappeared. He looked at the dude for a moment and said calmly, "As a prince, even if you don't have the hope of becoming the crown prince, don't let yourself fall into depravity, otherwise you will be a rotten person!"

"Grandpa, why do you talk like that!" The beautiful Chu looked at the playboy apologetically. Seeing that there was no displeasure on the playboy's face, she felt relieved.

"Second Grandpa is right. I will definitely follow your teachings!" Chu Lingfeng bowed respectfully again, but his fists were clenched tightly in his sleeves.
