Chapter 177: The so-called dignity
Toei National Shrine.
Even though it's winter, the garden doesn't seem to be a world away from the outside world, and the cherry blossoms are still blooming brightly, and the ground is pink. The demon man under the cherry blossom tree was leaning against the tree with his eyes closed in a gorgeous kimono, and the light smoke of the incense burner beside him was curling, and the smell of ambergris was confined in this courtyard, but it was a little pungent because it was too strong.
When Anthony stepped into the courtyard, he saw this scene.
"The fourth child can still enjoy it so much." As if he didn't smell the air, he walked to a meter in front of His Royal Highness and stopped, with a faint smile on his face, but there was no trace of temperature in his emerald green pupils.
His Royal Highness's closed eyes opened a slit, and after seeing the visitor, the folding fan on his right hand opened slightly and put it to his lips, yawned, and raised his eyes and said, "What a rare guest, it was actually the second brother who came to me in person?" It really flattered my younger brother. ”
"You have done such a big thing, and you have to congratulate you as a brother." Anthony took another half step forward, and the tall shadow blocked the sunlight above the head of the Fourth Highness, making his eyes widen a little more.
"Second brother, you blocked my sun." The Fourth Highness muttered dissatisfiedly and waved his fan, "Can you go to the side a little?" ”
Anthony frowned, but also took two steps to the side. Receiving the sunshine, His Royal Highness sighed with satisfaction, squinted again, and muttered: "Second brother, just say something, you know I don't like to play guessing with people." ”
The Fourth Highness's behavior obviously made Anthony a little dissatisfied, and anger flashed in those emerald green eyes, and he paused before he spoke: "Put that kind of thing out, do you want to start an all-out war with them?" ”
"That kind of thing? They? Second brother, your words are really profound, but my younger brother can't understand it. Didn't I just say it, if you have something to say, you will not blame the second brother for his poor expression skills. The Fourth Highness shook the fan slowly, looking leisurely, with a little doubt on his face, as if he really couldn't understand what the other party was saying.
Taking a deep breath, Anthony, who found himself a little out of shape, quickly adjusted his state and said in a deep voice: "Don't you tell me that that strange particle outside is not your masterpiece?" ”
The Fourth Highness shrugged his shoulders, closed the fan and slowly sat up straight, opened his eyes and looked at Anthony for a long time before he sneered: "I have never denied it." ”
"The clan is not ready, and the Holy Land has been captured, at this time, you are trying to provoke a war by releasing this particle?" Anthony's eyes flashed with deep thought, his fourth brother seems to be a little nonsense, but in fact, in his heart, this fourth brother is much more terrifying than the eldest and third, because you can never know what he wants to do. His haphazard play also makes it difficult to figure out what his purpose is.
Like this time, Anthony never believed that he only released that kind of particle, because it was too obvious. The fourth child must have some tricks, but he couldn't guess it. Thinking about the status of Langton Labs in the world, and those old foxes in China, Anthony was worried. Although he believed that his young lady would not have an accident, and that Li Muyun would not let her have an accident, he just didn't feel at ease.
"The clan isn't ready? It should be second brother, you are not ready, right? The Fourth Highness stretched, looked up at Anthony, and said with a chuckle, "Second brother, you have done a lot of things while the eldest brother and third brother are away, right?" How's your 'alternative plan' going? ”
Anthony was startled, then relieved. He has never hidden things from them, and it is normal for the fourth child to be able to detect it. He now controls about 60 percent of the people in the clan, and it is naturally easy to implement his own policy, and it is also necessary to hide it from others. It's just that he didn't expect the fourth child to use this method, as soon as he came out with this method, the people in the clan and on the Azure Star had almost no room to turn around.
And all his plans will collapse because of the fourth child's behavior.
"This is what Big Brother asked you to do?" Anthony asked. That's what he asked, and he himself believed that the boss wouldn't do it. It hasn't come yet, and the tribe's preparations are really insufficient, and if this time triggers a full-scale war, they will definitely not have the upper hand.
His Royal Highness closed the fan and shook it gently, "No, no, no." Big brother only thinks about detachment, you only think about integration, but I'm different. Second brother, our people are born to be strong, why do you want to take refuge in these people? If it was the previous cultivators, but the people on this planet were so weak, would you be willing to surrender to them? ”
Seeing that Anthony didn't speak, His Royal Highness laughed out loud as if he suddenly remembered something: "I forgot, second brother, you are really willing to surrender at their feet, and you are still a woman." ”
"It's none of your business, I never have a clear conscience in what I do. This place is different from the cultivation realm, but it is even more dangerous than the cultivation realm, and the clan can no longer withstand another long-distance migration, nor can it withstand too much loss. Where have you put your people in the light of what you have done? Anthony was expressionless, and although he had selfish intentions, he was not completely ignorant of his clan. As a member of the royal family, how could he leave his clansmen behind?
"Papapa-" The applause came, followed by the laughter of the Fourth Highness, "I really can't see it, second brother, you are really worried about the country and the people." You are afraid of confronting your Miss Xiao and making her hate you for the rest of your life, but you said such high-sounding words to cover it up, do you think I can't hear it? ”
Anthony smiled bitterly, even if it wasn't like that, she should have hated herself for the rest of her life.
"Yo, why don't you speak? What did I say was the matter? The Fourth Highness stood up and looked at Anthony, "Second brother, the people here are not as powerful as you say, they are cheap." You have conquered them, and they will naturally listen to you. Wait and see, my good second brother, when this is over, we will not only be royalty in our own clan, we will stand at the top of this planet. When the time comes, you want that Miss Xiao, and she won't dare to refuse you. Trust me, you'll thank me, second brother. ”
"Thank you?" Anthony sneered, he wanted to be with Miss, he wouldn't rely on this means, and he didn't think that the fourth child would succeed.
His Royal Highness seemed to feel very strange about his reaction, didn't his second brother want that woman surnamed Xiao?
"Fourth, stop it, don't get it out of control. We've been on this planet for so long, don't you know the mystery here? What you put out can only be used for a while, but not for a lifetime, and when the time comes, their counterattack will cause heavy losses to the clan. Are you causing a crisis of extermination? ”
Anthony actually wanted to directly kill this already crazy fourth brother, but firstly, they were finally brothers of the same mother, and secondly, he did not know much about the research in the clan. Even if he killed the fourth child, the situation outside would still not get much better, so he could only persuade him to stop.
"It's better to exterminate the clan than to wag your tail and beg for mercy from these people!" I don't know what came to mind, the eyes of the Fourth Highness suddenly turned red, "How can a naturally strong person give in to a weak person!" Rather than have to bury their names and live trembling, I'd rather die in battle! We are the Yuanshen clan, even if the clan is wiped out, I want the world to remember this name! ”
Anthony was shocked, and suddenly he felt that he could not say anything more.
In a way, the fourth child is right. Why can't they live in this world upright? In the past, he was captive by cultivators, but when he arrived at this weak Azure Star, he actually had to hide his name, and even bury the name of the entire race, and he was afraid of being discovered by the aborigines, and lived in fear. This kind of humiliation is not only for the fourth child, but also for him.
If you give it a go, maybe it's really a way out!
But, Miss......
Miss, she'll have a way, right?
Just like Xiao Ruo's trust in Anthony, he also has blind trust in her. From the beginning, there seemed to be nothing she didn't understand, nothing that could disappoint her.
Except for Alice......
However, he can be sure that at that time, she didn't seem to have started to cultivate the truth, and Li Muyun, who was also recruited later, wasn't she rescued by her? This proves that she is not out of the way with them.
Perhaps, she should also have a way to deal with the current situation of their people, right?
It's a pity that now he can't ask her personally.
And the fourth, he couldn't stop him. The fourth child is for the dignity of the entire race, but he is for the preservation of the lives of the clansmen. For the clansmen, it is better to let them decide for themselves.
In this respect, these royal families are really useless. Since it's useless, dying in battle is actually a good result.
"Fourth, I understand what you said. But after all, this matter involves the whole clan, so let's have a meeting tomorrow and let the clansmen make their own decisions. Anthony's voice was a little soft, but it made the Fourth Highness's eyes widen suddenly.
"Second brother, what did you say...... It's true? He couldn't seem to believe his ears. The second brother is a consistent Lord-peace faction, and this time he actually said that he wanted to hold a meeting? Although it is said that it is up to the clansmen to decide, but this doesn't just mean that he is actually a little shaken?
He was actually desperate, and he didn't think that he would ask for the consent of his clansmen. After all, as long as it is an intelligent life, he will be afraid of death, he is just unwilling to live without dignity.
This plan was completely secretly arranged by himself, and even the boss didn't know about it. And now the eldest and the third are recuperating from their injuries, and the right to speak in the clan is in the hands of the second child, he can't intervene at all, he can only watch the second child's plan go smoothly.
If he hadn't been too unwilling, he wouldn't have started this plan. I just didn't expect to get the support of the old 2.
With his character and consistent style, this can be regarded as unspoken support.
And as soon as he said this, it also meant that they had no way out.
There is no way back, then there is only forward! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to () subscribe, reward, your support is my biggest motivation. )
