Luo Liyao was caught off guard by him and let go of her hands, and instantly fell to the ground, subconsciously turning back to look at him - but before she could see Luo Chengjun's face clearly, she saw a blade that flashed with cold light.

The threat brought by the blade made her hair stand on end at that moment, and for a moment she couldn't even want to exclaim, so she only had time to subconsciously close her eyes and wait for death to come.

But the imaginary pain did not come, but the sound of the blade cutting through the air only passed in the ears, and it hit not far in front of him.

Luo Liyao seemed to be a little scared and took a deep breath, before slowly opening her eyes - it was Luo Chengjuan who directly passed her and stabbed straight at Luo Xizheng with a knife.

She watched the two of them attack and defend back and forth and staggered back and forth a few times, only to realize a tingling pain in her neck—as soon as she reached out and touched it, it was a piece of warm blood.

The neck was just rubbed by Luo Chengjuan's Qingyun knife, and it had already left a scar that was not deep or shallow, although the blood was not much, but it was a little difficult to stop.

Fortunately, Luo Chengjuan's target was not her, otherwise this knife would not have deviated so much...... With Luo Chengjuan's ability and the distance they just had, if Luo Chengjuan really wanted her life, she would already be a corpse by now.

Luo Liyao subconsciously pressed the wound on her neck, tried her best to reduce bleeding, supported the bluestone floor, stood up a little staggeringly, and kept her eyes on the two brothers in the struggle - she had no martial arts at all, so naturally there was no way to stop the fight between the two, and she was so confused now that she didn't even know what to do, she just stood there in a daze, very at a loss.

On the other hand, although Luo Xizheng came in a hurry and did not carry any weapons with him, he was not a powerless person and would not be easily injured by him.

It's just that Luo Chengcheng is menacing with a knife, and he has a sense of not giving up until he reaches his goal, and he is bent on attacking several key points of Luo Xizheng, it seems that he doesn't want to give him any chance at all, and wants to take his life here.

"Luo Chengjuan, have you really thought about it?" Luo Xizheng turned sideways slightly, and he was able to dodge Luo Chengjun's knife, obviously in a dangerous situation where he was obviously at a disadvantage, but he still wanted to make the final persuasion without hurrying, "If you don't turn back, you will never have a chance to turn back." Are you really ...... Hiss. ”

Before he finished speaking, Luo Chengjuan suddenly flipped the blade in his hand and directly cut his shoulder.

Luo Xizheng also swung out a palm, hitting Luo Chengjuan's left shoulder without holding the knife lightly or heavily, and used his strength to distance himself, so that Luo Chengjuan's next knife naturally fell short.

"Luo Xizheng." Luo Chengjuan missed the pursuit, but took a few steps back from his palm, but he was not annoyed, he only flicked the light blade that was as clear as water, and looked at him fixedly, "If I stop, you will take this river."

Is the mountain coming back? ”

Luo Xizheng fell silent and looked at him.

"Will you give up everything you have now and quit?" Luo Chengjuan's hand holding the hilt of the knife tightened a little, and there was irrefutable certainty in his tone, "You won't." ”

Luo Xizheng subconsciously looked in the direction where Luo Liyao was, but Luo Liyao turned her head away the moment she met his gaze, avoiding his gaze - Luo Xizheng's heart was shocked, although his face was still silent, but there were some other thoughts secretly surging in his heart.

And before he could turn his gaze back, he intuitively sensed that danger was coming, and subconsciously dodged to the side to hide some distance, just dodging another knife from Luo Chengjuan.

"Luo Chengjuan." Luo Xizheng frowned, although it was a flaw that he took the initiative to expose, but Luo Chengcheng was looking for an opportunity like this, and at a glance, he knew that he had made up his mind to kill him here.

"In addition to you, there is also Ning Zhong......" Luo Chengjuan ignored him and went straight on, when he mentioned this name, there was a little gloom on his face, which was already seven or eight points similar to Luo Zhuangxi, which only made the people watching subconsciously feel very dangerous, "He should also die!" ”

The knife was dodged by Luo Xizheng just now, and Luo Chengjuan swung another knife, and so on, and the two fought again - Luo Xizheng had no weapons, so he naturally had some disadvantages.

And this is Luo Chengjuan's territory, who occupies the right time, place and people, it is clear at a glance.

Luo Liyao rubbed her temples, but she still didn't know what she should do.

If in the past, maybe she would not hesitate to stand on Luo Xizheng's side, stabilize Luo Chengcheng first and then find a way. But now......

Luo Xizheng is the emperor of Tianqi, which is already a well-known thing in the whole world.

But he is not the royal family of Tianqi, and few people know about this matter except for the dead Zhao Tianyuan, except for Ning Zhongji, Luo Xizheng himself and Luo Liyao.

What else could she do?

This country has already been given to others, or she has given it herself-it is really worth letting her die to apologize for her sins before the spiritual throne of the ancestors of the Tianqi Imperial Family.

And what Luo Chengjuan did was all for the Tianqi royal family: whether it was "cleaning up the portal" or "expanding the army privately"...... He was wholeheartedly trying to take this country back from Luo Xizheng, because this should have belonged to the Tianqi Imperial Family.

"As the Tianqi royal family, you should swear to defend the dignity and pride of the royal family." This is the education and edification they have received since childhood.

And even the most precious rivers and mountains handed down by the Tianqi Imperial Family for generations have been obtained by others, how much humiliation and irony does this have to be for the Tianqi Imperial Family?

Luo Liyao, who is also a member of the Tianqi Imperial Family, should be doing what she has to do now

——Firmly stand on Luo Chengjuan's side, take back these things that were "stolen" by Luo Xizheng and Ning Zhong, and redeem his mistakes.

There is nothing wrong with such an idea, but Luo Liyao is still a little hesitant in her heart, and subconsciously feels that she has ignored some important issues.

At this moment, Luo Liyao was watching in a daze as this pair of half-brothers with very different identities were entangled together, and countless thoughts flashed in her heart, but in the end, they turned into confusion and overwhelmed.

"Before you make a big mistake, stop it." Luo Xizheng took a step back, his back was already against the wall on the side, obviously he had been forced into a situation where there was no way back, but he still looked at ease, "If this throne is really handed over to you, what can you do?" ”

Luo Chengjuan's movements paused, and then angrily slashed the blade in his hand towards Luo Xizheng's head: "What do you mean by this contemptuous tone?!" ”

The Qingyun Knife is a rare weapon, and Luo Chengjuan is like a tiger with wings when he holds it in his hand, and with such a full force, it is naturally ferocious.

It's just that he was already angered by Luo Xizheng, he tried his best with this knife, but he didn't find the best angle,—— Luo Chengju was several years younger than Luo Xizheng, and he didn't have enough experience, how could Luo Xizheng not see such a big flaw he exposed.

"You think you're going to do well?" Luo Xizheng laughed, easily dodged his knife with his side head, and directly reached out and slapped it heavily on the wrist of the hand holding the handle of the knife, and there was a crisp "click" and a "clang" sound of the Qingyun knife falling to the ground, but there was no sound of Luo Xizheng's words, "If you become the emperor of Tianqi, Tianqi is afraid that it will not be far from destruction." ”

Luo Chengjuan's wrist was hit by him, and the Qingyun knife also fell to the ground due to the loss of force, but Luo Chengjuan's reaction was also extremely fast, and his movements did not change because of the sharp pain in his wrist - he subconsciously kicked the wall next to Luo Xizheng, and took a few steps back with his strength, distancing himself from him, preventing him from hitting him again and losing the opportunity to fight back.

In this way, Luo Xizheng repelled Luo Chengjuan, but he didn't want to take advantage of the victory to pursue, he only smiled calmly at his younger brother, as if he was mocking his incompetence.

"Why do you say that?!" Luo Chengjuan shook his right wrist with his left hand, but found that the wrist bone here seemed to have been broken off by Luo Xizheng just now, and immediately sneered, "I am the royal family of Tianqi, and I am the rightful heir of this country - this throne should not belong to you in the first place!" ”

"Royalty...... And not born royalty. Luo Xizheng bent down, calmly picked up the Qingyun knife that he had just knocked to the ground, and lightly scratched the blade with his fingertips, leaving a shallow bright red mark on the knife in an instant, "You don't seem to understand at all - the root of the country."

It's not the country, it's the people. ”

Luo Chengjuan was puzzled, and frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

And Luo Liyao next to her instantly understood like an initiation.

For a long time, they have been entangled in the identity of this royal family, because they subconsciously believe that this imperial throne belongs to the royal family, and only the royal family of Tianqi can inherit the country of Tianqi.

But they forgot that no royal family became royal from the beginning.

These rivers and mountains are all their ancestors, or dissatisfied with the powerful and bloody battles, or unveiled the pole and set up their own doors, and beat down the rivers and mountains bit by bit.

And the cornerstone that supports this country is not the emperor who holds great power, not the army that threatens foreign enemies, nor the so-called noble royal family, but the people living in this country.

In other words, it doesn't matter who owns this country, as long as he can make the people live and work in peace and contentment, and is loved by the people, he is a well-deserved "emperor".

And Luo Chengjuan's paranoid and impulsive temperament is not much different from Luo Yuanjing back then, it may be okay to be a lord of the city, but if he becomes an emperor...... Luo Liyao subconsciously shook her head and hurriedly abandoned this idea.

If such a person becomes an emperor, he will be a tyrant through and through.

"In a way, maybe you're not as good as Yuanjing." Luo Xizheng seemed to sigh softly, "It's taboo to act before you make a decision—and you're too confident in yourself and your subordinates." ”
