Chapter 453: The Great Emperor's Intentions
Several princes at the gate of the Sealed Abyss saw their father, the Emperor of the East China Sea, personally arrive. After that, the guns of the Boluo expeditionary fleet were lowered in unison, and they were all relieved to realize that the danger had passed for the time being.
"What a false alarm. β
"Maybe the artillery fire just now was for the other party to seal a few thieves in the abyss. β
"Bolona, the old horseman, scared people to death and didn't pay for his life. β
"Of course, my father will not abandon us. β
"Long live Father. The golden-robed prince raised his hand and shouted.
"Long live Father. The others cheered.
After that, the eighth prince with the appearance of a young man arrived before sealing the abyss and made peace with the other five princes, at this time he changed into a delicate white robe handmade by the court, but the double horns on his head had not yet had time to cover it with a suitable mask. As he walked, the white cloak behind him flew and the white robe had two horns, showing a bit of the unique noble temperament of the scale and aristocrats.
"I'm Xiaoba, and I ask a few brothers to take care of me. The young man in white came to him and hugged his fist.
The golden-robed prince and the others all showed surprise on their faces.
In their memories, the Eighth Prince was only a three-year-old child and rarely showed up since birth. When the eighth prince was three years old, the emperor sent him to an ordinary family outside the palace for foster care.
"Are you really the eighth child?, I haven't seen you for a few years, how did you become so tall?" the purple-robed third prince asked.
"Look at the double horns on his head, they have also grown, it is the eighth yes, among our princes, only the eighth is born with two horns. The blue-robed six princes said.
"Eighth Prince?" the golden-robed Grand Prince's gaze stayed on a pair of sharp horns on the two-horned boy's head.
He saw a pair of proud double horns on the head of the Eighth Prince, and suddenly felt that the originally proud single horn on his head seemed to be much weaker, and a trace of unusually low emotions flashed in his heart, and he muttered in his heart: "Looking at the powerful aura on the Eighth Prince's body, it shouldn't be something that can be cultivated at his age." Could it be that the luck of the Eight Scales has already been obtained by his little doll? So what are we? We don't even have a chance to compete? It turns out that my father has taken a fancy to this kid. Heyβ"
Seeing that the eighth prince was radiant and extraordinary, especially the pair of extremely arrogant horns on his head, all that was left of the golden-robed prince at this time was envy, jealousy and hatred.
"It's Xiaoba, aren't you frail and sick, and you were sent to foster care outside the palace by your father? If you have a chance, second brother, I would like to have a discussion with you. The second prince in the red robe narrowed his eyes and said with authority.
The second prince of the red robe also noticed the powerful aura on the eighth prince's body, and the distinctive double horns. But he is still confident that with his strong skills, he can trample the two-horned boy in front of him under his feet.
The Eighth Prince just nodded and did not answer. He didn't look like he was fighting with a few of his royal brothers. But before coming, the emperor personally instructed that if the other princes were unfavorable to him, he must return it twice.
......
A moment later, a herald in a purple official uniform, accompanied by several personal soldiers, arrived at the six princes in a small boat. Then he unfolded the saint and read out: "The Great Emperor of the East China Sea has a decree. The task of snatching the Grey Scale Demon Knife continues, and whoever is present can recapture the knife with his own hands will be directly made the crown prince. β
"Pick it up. β
"Pick it up. β
The six princes prostrate on the ground and said in unison.
The herald handed over the decree to the eldest prince and others to circulate, and then hurried back to resume his life.
Seeing that the holy decree was clearly written, there were suddenly waves in the center of several people.
"Haha. β
Among several people, the most excited was the second prince in the red robe, he glanced at the other people, and actually laughed, and then said arrogantly: "The position of the crown prince, I want to decide." Immediately, the crimson demonic qi around his body flew up, and his domineering aura was exposed.
"Before, my father just said that whoever gets the demon sword, the crown prince will be given priority. This time, it turned out to be a make-or-break, and it seemed that the only way to do it was to give it a go. Judging from the previous things, the purpose of the father is to make this old eight powerful. Perhaps, this is the best opportunity, don't you want to fight for the second child? The person who wins in the end may not be just one of you. Thinking in his heart, the golden-robed eldest prince glanced at the arrogant red-robed second prince and then at the white-clothed two-horned young man, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"In terms of force, it is true that the second brother is the most powerful. It's kind of unfair to be so competitive. The green-robed Fifth Prince approached the blue-robed Sixth Prince beside him and whispered.
The blue-robed Sixth Prince nodded slightly, and then replied in the same low voice: "It's good that we join forces, and we must not give up this opportunity easily." β
The three princes in the purple robe had a desire for the position of the crown prince in their hearts, and secretly said: "In terms of force, I am not the opponent of the second brother, and I am not as good as the eldest brother in terms of wisdom." When these two people are also small-minded, no matter how much they become emperors in the future, I and other princes will not have a good time. It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to compete. β
"To each his own. The white-clothed two-horned boy said timidly. Although his height is no different from that of an adult, and his appearance is fifteen or sixteen years old, his mind is only a seven-year-old child after all. Before coming, the Emperor of the East China Sea specially instructed him, and after that, no matter what your brothers say, you can answer that you can just rely on your ability, and you must not show your cowardice and lose the prestige that the two horns on your head should have.
The six princes each have their own plans.
The golden-robed prince rolled his eyes, and then said, "Since my father has issued a holy decree, this matter is very serious. It was my father who encouraged us all to compete openly, and each of us should also strive for it with all our might, so as not to waste our father's heart. As for the crown prince, of course, each of us has a chance. The second brother is the strongest and has the greatest opportunity. But we've already fought those thieves in the Abyss. Outside, without the suppression of the dark light crystal, those few thieves would be even more difficult to deal with. Therefore, I suggest that everyone should still unite and advance and retreat together in order to achieve victory. Defeat your opponent and take the demon knife again. Otherwise, let alone snatching the demon knife, it is a fluke to ensure your life. β
"Big brother is right, we should continue to work together to meet the enemy. However, I think we might as well fight back to the Sealed Abyss and take advantage of the geographical advantage there. Really wait for those thieves to come out, what are our odds of winning?" said the purple-robed third prince.
The golden-robed prince didn't answer, but just motioned to the purple-robed third prince with his eyes to look at the expeditionary fleet on the sea.
Of course, the three princes in the purple robe understood what the golden-robed prince meant.
"It seems that the eldest brother is still far-sighted. Even if you can enter the sealed abyss, you may not be able to defeat those thieves. If we are defeated by thieves inside, who will save us? Here, the father and the general Boluo on the warship were at least visible. It's a big deal, they can still help. The purple-robed third prince said.
The golden-robed prince said loudly: "There is another important reason, we can't enter the Sealed Abyss. In case the naval artillery on the fleet is aimed at the Sealed Abyss again, the artillery fire will not be long-sighted. β
Several other princes nodded their heads, expressing their agreement with the golden-robed prince's opinion.
"To each his own. The Eighth Prince continued to repeat these four words.
After a short negotiation, the golden-robed eldest prince, the red-robed second prince, the purple-robed third prince, the green-robed fifth prince, the blue-robed sixth prince and the white-clothed young eighth prince waited for work at the gate of the sealed abyss, put on a posture, and waited for Xu Yang and others in the sealed abyss to come out.
......
Sealed in the Abyss.
Xu Yang, Guigu Changyang, Liu Haiyu, Yun Qiaoer and A Zhu returned the same way.
"Our return has gone too smoothly, will the princes of the Grand Palace set up an ambush at the door?" Azhu asked.
"Probably so. They have gone to great lengths to lead us into the Abyss, and there must be some conspiracy. It won't let us go so easily. What's more, they covet Senior Brother Guigu's demon knife very much. Xu Yang said.
"My body has just recovered, and Haiyu has consumed a lot of internal elements to help me. Going out is inevitably a vicious battle, everyone should be careful. Yun Qiao'er said, her beautiful eyes looked at Liu Haiyu's face, and her cheeks turned red.
"My body is not tight, they have to pay for bringing you here and making you suffer like this. Liu Haiyu said in a firm tone. After speaking, there was a faint flash of gold thread at the center of his eyebrows, which was his third magic eye that was about to move, and the killing opportunity had appeared.
"That's right, make these people pay. In other words, the royal horns on the heads of those princes are a great supplement for me. The spirit gray scale Jiao on the demon knife said.
"So it was decided, and if they were outside, I would cut off the horns of their heads and give you a snack to eat. "Ghost Valley Changyang domineering Dao.
......
Outside the abyss. The two armies met.
"A few thieves came out, but I didn't expect Liu Haiyu to really find Yun Qiao'er. The golden-robed prince said.
"Xu Yang, just now in the Sealed Abyss, there is no winner between this prince and you. There is no suppression of the dark light crystal here, so let this prince see the true strength of your ghost path body. The second prince in the red robe pointed at Xu Yang and said loudly.
"I, Xu Xiaoxian, will accompany me at any time. Xu Yang took a step forward and said confidently.
"And me. "Fire Maiden Azhu and Xu Yang stood side by side.
"There is also an expeditionary fleet on standby, Boro is at the bow, and the person wearing the python robe next to him should be the Emperor of the East China Sea, maybe they are our real opponents. Liu Haiyu used the Blue Water Pupil Technique, took a closer look at the situation on the fleet in the distance, and ignored the princes in front of him.
"Aren't you trying to snatch the demon knife from my hand? Guigu Changyang's blue-gray eyes flashed fiercely, he took off the demon knife on his waist, held the knife with the scabbard in his hand, and held it in front of him, without the slightest concession.
......
on board the warship.
The gold-armored general Bo Luo pointed to the opposite side and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, those thieves really came out of the sealed abyss safely, and they also rescued Yun Qiao'er. Do you want the old minister to go up and help, so as not to suffer losses for several princes. β
The great emperor in the python robe beside him did not answer, and waved his hand confidently, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his eyes were always focused on his youngest son. I secretly thought in my heart, the eighth child, my father set up this scene for you today, don't let my father down. β
