Lei Dao was listening quietly, and the two communicated as they walked.

The bearded sage explained in detail, allowing Lei Dao to have a very detailed understanding of Shangyang Houfu.

It turned out that the bearded sage was a guest under the command of Shang Yang Yunchuan, the ninth prince of Shang Yang Hou Mansion.

The Shangyang Houfu has a Hou State called the Shangyang Houguo.

This generation of Shang Yanghou, although he is a fourfold powerhouse of the Holy Body, has a long lifespan, but it will eventually reach the time limit. Once the limit is reached, even the Holy Venerable will die.

The Shang Yang Marquis is already approaching, so the heir of the Shang Yang Marquis must be established as soon as possible.

The heirs of the Hou Kingdom naturally have their own set of rules.

The heirs of the Marquis of Shangyang can only be qualified to inherit by the outstanding children who have achieved the Holy Venerable, and there will be fierce competition between them.

The so-called Nine Princes are not the sons of this generation of Shangyang Marquis.

In fact, there are a total of nine candidates for the heirs of the Shangyang Marquis, none of whom are direct descendants of this generation of Shangyang Marquis. After all, a Fourfold Saint-Honored One has a very long lifespan.

And it is impossible for all children to be sanctified, no matter how many resources there are, they have to rely on themselves to become holy.

The nine "sons" are all saints in the mansion of the Marquis of Shangyang, and they are qualified to compete for the title of "Marquis of Shangyang" and inherit the Marquis of Shangyang.

The bearded sage is the guest under the command of the ninth prince, and belongs to the subordinate of the ninth prince, Shangyang Yunchuan.

But now, Shang Yang Yunchuan is at a disadvantage in the competition among the nine sons, or rather, there is not much hope. If Lei Dao took refuge in Shangyang Yunchuan, it would actually be very unfavorable to Lei Dao.

The bearded sage introduced the situation of the Shangyang Marquis Mansion, and finally sighed and said, "That's the situation I want to say. At the beginning, the ninth prince had the grace of knowing me, so no matter what, I would support the ninth prince. But Lei Shengzun is different, so you can choose carefully, and it is up to Lei Shengzun to decide whether to join or not. ”

Lei Dao took a deep look at the bearded sage.

For the bearded saint's openness, Lei Dao had a good impression.

It's just that good feelings are good feelings, and Lei Dao will not really support Shang Yang Yunchuan on impulse. The Ninth Prince is now at a disadvantage, and he doesn't even have any hope of inheriting the title of Marquis of Shangyang.

If you can't have a title, you can't inherit the Marquis of Shangyang, and you can't even use much resources, what's the point of taking refuge?

Lei Dao came to the Ancient Divine Prefecture to practice, not to be a good person, let alone to do good deeds.

Therefore, Lei Dao is also weighing the pros and cons.

"The bearded sage, you say, only a first-class guest is qualified to learn a holy law collected by Shang Yanghou?"

Lei Dao's heart moved, and he asked the bearded sage.

The bearded sage nodded cautiously and said, "Yes, only a first-class guest can learn the holy law. It's a pity that I have already implored the Ninth Prince to honor Lei Shengzun as a first-class guest, but the Ninth Prince seems to be disheartened, has lost confidence, and has no longer wants to fight, so ......"

The bearded sage's words were tactful, but Lei Dao already understood.

Jiu Gongzi was disheartened, in fact, he had no confidence in Lei Dao. Naturally, Lei Dao will not be regarded as a first-class guest.

And the first-class guest secretary must at least be a holy deity above the triple level of the Holy Sacrament.

"Let's go meet this Ninth Prince. ”

Lei Dao did not give a specific answer, and the bearded saint did not ask.

The relationship between the guest and the master is actually not a relationship between the master and his subordinates, but more like a cooperative relationship.

Therefore, the host will choose the guest family, and similarly, the guest will also choose the main family, which is a two-way choice.

Lei Dao also had to see the Ninth Prince with his own eyes before he could make up his mind.

......

In the Shangyang Marquis Mansion, every "son" has a magnificent and solitary palace, which is equivalent to every prince being in charge of a palace, which can be called a great power.

Of course, this situation will only occur when the heir to the Marquis of Shangyang is not decided.

Once the title is decided, the rest of the competitors will naturally be deprived of many rights and sent to the Shangyang Marquis, becoming one of the elders of the Marquis.

Most of them will be sent to various parts of the Hou State and sit on one side, which is actually degraded, and it will be difficult to go further in the future. Only those who are familiar with each other, or who take refuge early, can guarantee their power.

In the Xi and Shen dynasties, power was very important.

This is because power often represents resources, and only with power can we have resources to practice, and it is possible to go further and go further on the path of the Eucharist.

Otherwise, it will be very difficult to reach a higher level of cultivation, even as difficult as reaching the heavens.

At this moment, in the palace, Shang Yang Yunchuan's eyes seemed to be on fire, and even the phantom of the Holy Body behind him appeared, which showed how angry Shang Yang Yunchuan was.

"Shangyang Shanhai, what are you doing here? If it's just to show off, you don't have to. Hmph, do you think you'll be able to sit back and relax when you're on the list? Like you, without a little bit of the backbone and belief that a Holy Venerable should have, what can you achieve in the end?"

In the main hall, just in front of Shangyang Yunchuan, there was a middle-aged man, slightly burly, and his face seemed to be somewhat similar to Shangyang Yunchuan.

This is Shangyang Shanhai, the elder brother of Shangyang Yunchuan, and the elder brother of a fellow mother.

It's a pity that the two have different ideas.

And because of something, the two have been very hostile since childhood.

Originally, both of them could be sanctified, but if they could cooperate sincerely, among the nine sons of the Marquis of Shangyang, the two might not be hopeless to compete for the title.

But the two are in a hostile relationship.

Shangyang Shanhai simply took refuge in the eldest prince and has been helping the eldest prince do things.

Now that the eldest prince has got his wish, he has basically been determined as the heir of the Shangyang Marquis, and he will inherit the entire Shangyang Marquis in the future, which can be regarded as a decided.

At this time, Shangyang Shanhai came, and Shangyang Yunchuan was naturally very angry.

But Shang Yang Shanhai didn't seem to care about Shang Yang Yunchuan's attitude, but said with a smile: "My dear brother, you are already a dignified saint, don't you still understand? Why can't you take refuge in the eldest prince? ”

"There are also various resources that will be tilted to me, and even, the eldest prince has to rely on me to help him control and govern the entire Shangyang Marquis Kingdom. When the time comes, I will also be in power. Why do you want to fight for the marquis? People like us will never be able to become the lord of the marquis, you should recognize yourself. ”

"Recognize yourself? Hahaha, ridiculous, really ridiculous! Commercial mountains and seas, you and I are both born of the side line of Shang Yang, and even our mother's status is very low, but so what? We become holy through our own efforts, and we are naturally qualified to compete for the position of marquis! On the contrary, you took refuge in the eldest prince early, and even attacked your own brother. Someone like you is qualified to preach to me?"

Shang Yang Yunchuan sneered.

In his life, he did not regret competing for the position of Shangyang Marquis.

The most regrettable thing is that he failed to kill Shangyang Shanhai in the first place, which led to a catastrophe. In this life, he will not forgive Shang Yang Shanhai.

"My dear brother, I will not harm you. If I hadn't killed that in the first place, you would have worked hard to cultivate and eventually become holy? ”

"Shut up, Shangyang Shanhai, one day, I will personally kill you and avenge Juan'er!"

Shang Yang Yunchuan's eyes seemed to be about to breathe fire.

This is the reverse scale in his heart, and no one can mention it!

At the beginning, when he was even just a Dao body, there was originally a Dao couple.

But it was Shangyang Shanhai who, on the grounds of "hindering" Shangyang Yunchuan's cultivation, actually killed Shangyang Yunchuan's Taoist companion. Shang Yang Yunchuan is almost crazy, and he wants to kill Shang Yang Shanhai.

It's a pity that he has never been able to kill Shangyang Shanhai.

Later, Shangyang Yunchuan sanctified and completely changed his strategy. Since one person can't kill Shangyang Shanhai, then he has to compete for the position of marquis.

Once he becomes the Marquis of Shangyang, when the time comes, he will be able to use the power of the lord of the Marquis of Shangyang to easily grind the mountains and seas of Shangyang into powder.

It's a pity that he has worked hard for so long, and now his hope is shattered again.

Shang Yang Shanhai shook his head, looked pity, and slowly spoke: "Yunchuan, you really disappointed me. I thought you could see through it, but I didn't expect you to be able to see through it so far. Without me, you wouldn't be where you are today, and if I could have pulled you at the beginning, then I won't let you go astray now. Now that the overall situation has been decided, the eldest prince is about to become the heir of the Hou Kingdom, you can't continue to go against the eldest prince, otherwise, even I won't be able to protect you. ”

"So, I'll take you away. Bring you to the command of the eldest prince and admit your mistake to the eldest prince. When the eldest prince is employing people, and he trusts me very much, as long as I come forward, the eldest prince will definitely not blame you for the past. ”

Shangyang Shanhai's attitude of being responsible for Shangyang Yunchuan made Shangyang Yunchuan almost crazy.

"Hahaha, Shangyang Shanhai, who do you think you are? I am now one of the nine princes of Shangyang Houfu, and I have a master under my command, you want to take me away? It depends on whether you have this ability!"

At this moment, Shang Yang Yunchuan also seemed to have infinite confidence, and the phantom of the holy body behind him was also looming, exuding a powerful aura.

"Is it? My dear brother, just with these third-class and second-class guests you have recruited over the years? naïve, really naïve, with such a lineup, you also want to compete with the eldest prince for the position of marquis? ”

The words fell, and Shang Yang Shanhai waved his hand.

Suddenly, an old man in a gray robe walked out from behind him.

The old man looked up at the five Saint Venerables beside Shang Yang Yunchuan.

Of these five deities, three are Eucharistic deities and two are Eucharistic deities. The lineup can be regarded as relatively strong.

It's just that a phantom suddenly appeared behind the gray-robed old man, and then, the phantom stepped into the void, instantly shaking the void.

A terrifying holy body, like a demon god, stepped out of the depths of the void.

That terrifying aura made even the Eucharistic Double Venerable feel palpitations.

"Three Enhancements!"

"This is the Triple Eucharist!"

"Eucharistic Triple, we ...... We're just not opponents. ”

The five Saint Venerables behind Shang Yang Yunchuan were extremely solemn at the moment, and there were even some different colors in their eyes.

Eucharistic Triple, they are no opponents.

Really desperate, maybe, they will die!

Although they are Keqing, they have to obey Shang Yang Yunchuan's orders, but in the case of obvious defeat, or even death, these Keqing will also have their own choices.

They are guests, not slaves.

It will not be wise to die and send it to death.

"Nine Princes, I'm sorry, we're just Keqing. The Triple Eucharist is strong, there is nothing we can do, and according to the rules, we will return three times the reward paid to us by Childe. ”

These guests all saluted Shang Yang Yunchuan slightly, with a hint of apology on their faces, and then left the palace one after another after taking out three times the compensation.

In the blink of an eye, Shang Yang Yunchuan's side was empty, and there was not a single Saint Venerable Guest.

Seeing this scene, Shang Yang Shanhai's face became even more proud.

A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he slowly spoke: "My dear brother, have you seen it, this is the real reality! These Keqing's choices are the most correct choice, they are just Keqing, how can they give you desperate? Under absolute strength, your anger is useless at all. Look around you, who else will stay with you?"

Shang Yang Yunchuan was furious, but he could only look at Shang Yang Shanhai coldly.

As Shang Yang Shanhai said, there is no one around him anymore.

No guest secretary would accompany him in this situation.

"Boom".

However, at this moment, two thousands of holy bodies suddenly manifested and rushed into the palace from the outside.

"Nine Princes, and me!"

The bearded saint manifested two holy bodies of thousands of feet, and he was not afraid at all, and went straight to the holy body that the gray-robed old man beside Shang Yang Shanhai manifested in the main hall.
